Chapter 144 An Exceptionally Handsome Lecher
Chapter 144 An Exceptionally Handsome Lecher
In the dark night of the capital, the moon hid, and the wind was high.
Several figures silently flew over the high walls.
The old gatekeeper of the princess's Residence happened to be getting up to relieve himself. He rubbed his eyes and, just as he saw them flash by and was about to shout, was struck by a hidden dart in the throat. He fell to the ground instantly, breathless.
Several rapists reached the brightest part of the roof, quietly lifting a piece of red tiles, only to see a misty fog below.
Princess Ming Yue was bathing!
They exchanged glances, all filled with greedy desire.
"The elder said he needed the dragon energy of this princess. He didn't say she had to be intact, right?"
"Shall we try first?"
"Nonsense! This is a princess of the dynasty, not yet married! We Nature Realm cultivators wouldn't usually get a chance with such a high-class woman. Dying after trying once would be worth it!"
"It's just Ming Yue Princess, this foolish woman. Without any guards, how could we succeed?"
"Tsk! I heard that Ming Yue Princess and the empress are sisters. The empress gave birth to a peerless beauty, so her sister must be extraordinary too!"
"..."
They whispered secretly, their eyes burning with desire.
However, they didn't know that at this moment, a figure had already arrived behind them, standing tall in the void, calmly observing these despicable individuals...
... Stay connected with empire
Inside the princess's Residence, in the bedroom.
Fragrance lingered as large petals of roses were scattered in a huge bathing tub. A face of alluring charm emerged from the water, faintly visible through the mist and petals, revealing the beautiful figure of a young girl.
Beside her was an averagely looking maid continually sprinkling rose petals and adding hot water to the tub.
"Your Highness, you used to frequently visit the palace, why have you stopped these days, especially as the year comes to an end?"
The maid asked softly.
Ming Yue, showing only her delicate face above the water, pouted, "Are you teasing me? Knowing that my sister has returned to the palace, you still encourage me to go back. Hmph..."
The maid chuckled, "This servant wouldn't dare. It's just that His Majesty went to the Phoenix and Phoenix Hall a couple of days ago. Word has it that if you don't go to the palace in a few days, His Majesty will personally come to the Residence to see you."
Before the maid finished speaking, Ming Yue Princess's expression, full of enjoyment, stiffened, and her body slowly sat up!
"My sister... did she really say that?"
"Don't scare me!"
"How could this servant dare to scare Your Highness?"
The maid finished sprinkling the petals and was about to step back out to give the princess some time to contemplate how to face His Majesty's visit.
After all!
This little princess, in order to avoid the Emperor's surveillance, had moved out of the palace to the Residence, even giving up her guards.
"Take those books to my bed. I'll read them tonight..."
Ming Yue Princess said anxiously.
The maid smiled, took the books, and left. In fact, everyone in the Residence knew that the princess was truly wronged. She was not cut out for studying!
But with the Empress having no heir, he treated her as the next empress and tried to nurture her. So, every now and then, he would test her on national affairs, knowledge from the imperial examinations, etc.
This princess usually only knew how to act cute and spoiled. She couldn't even learn what Prime Minister Su taught her, let alone answer these questions.
"If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to see if she had returned or not. I'm worried about her, and this annoying elder sister comes to bother me as soon as she returns... sigh, why am I so unlucky!"
Ming Yue Princess held her breath, and her delicate face sank into the bathtub. Bubbles popped up on the water's surface.
At this moment!
Seeing that the maid was not in the room, the door closed by itself without any wind. Several people on the roof closed the barrier tightly.
Just when they were about to descend, a distant voice suddenly stopped them.
"The people on the roof, do not move."
Not a warning, but a genuine command!
Several rapists were instantly bewildered. They tried to move their legs, but it seemed like they had grown roots on the roof and couldn't budge!
The True Realm True Words were something these Nature Realm individuals couldn't shake. Gu Lan smiled indifferently and floated in front of them.
When the rapists saw Gu Lan's exceptionally handsome face, they were all stunned. Did they forget that the princess's Residence had such a handsome guard during their reconnaissance?
No, they forgot that there was such a powerful guard!
When did he come behind them?!
"Who are you?"
One of the rapists blinked, asking in a low voice. Gu Lan ignored him and said directly, "Tell me where your secret headquarters is, and who is the mastermind behind this. I can let you go."
"Heh, do you think we'll believe you?"
Among the rapists, there were naturally those with low intelligence.
Gu Lan's eyes remained unchanged. A breeze blew by, and the head of the rapist who had spoken earlier slid off instantly!
The other rapists turned pale!
"Elder! We can't say. If that person finds out we betrayed him, we'll have a worse fate!"
A rapist pleaded, "If you let us go, we promise never to come to the princess's Residence again... If you're not a guard, we've already set up a barrier below. The vivid Ming Yue Princess is left for you to enjoy!"
"Princess...?"
Gu Lan curled his lips, letting them think they were saved.
But the next moment, with a snap of Gu Lan's fingers, all the black-clothed rapists turned into powder, not even having time to change their ingratiating expressions!
"No useful information at all, simply..."
Gu Lan casually commented, shook his head, and was about to fly back in the direction of Gu Residence.
Suddenly!
"You lecher!"
Below, Princess Ming Yue, holding her body in panic, sat in the tub, her watery eyes revealing fear as she looked up at Gu Lan!
Damn, with one snap, he accidentally demolished the roof... Gu Lan's eye twitched, but he knew that Ming Yue was bathing and didn't lower his gaze.
"Why are you yelling?!"
"The lecher has been taken care of by me. Have you ever seen such a handsome lecher like me?"
Gu Lan reprimanded in a cold voice.
Ming Yue Princess was stunned for a moment, wrinkled her small eyebrows, "Well, indeed I haven't seen..."
But she still didn't dare to relax. After all, there were not many guards in the Residence, and the guard in front of her, who was exceptionally handsome, couldn't be stopped...
"Sigh..."
Gu Lan felt that this woman's intelligence was not too high. Moreover, based on what he knew about Princess Ming Yue, even if she saw his face, it wouldn't pose any threat.
"I'll spare your life for now. If you dare to speak more, hehehe!"
Gu Lan imitated the laughter of a big villain, then left gracefully on the sword, leaving behind a puzzled look from Princess Ming Yue and the maid who returned with a bundle of books.
Of course!
If he felt threatened in the future, killing this "useless" princess wouldn't be too late. Even if the Great Jing's Emperor tried to stop him, it would be easy to catch her! Gu Lan didn't care much and continued to go back to sleep with his wife.
...
That night!
East Sea Dragon Palace!
In front of the crystal pillars of the palace, rows of huge monster soldiers surged forward, wearing armor, majestic and awe-inspiring.
Countless night pearls were arranged around the palace, resembling a huge, exquisite temple, mysterious and filled with a powerful aura.
This was the territory of the dragon race, the remaining descendants of divine beasts!
At a certain moment, a riotous dragon might suddenly erupted inside the crystal palace, scattering the patrolling monster soldiers!
They looked suspiciously toward the source of the commotion, only to hear an ancient and unbelievable voice!
"Hanyi, you're saying that Qinger disappeared back then... jumped off the Immortal Desolation Cliff in the demon realm!?"
