46: Chapter 46 From now on, if anyone dares to lay a hand on my two wives, I will chop them into pieces.

The deterrent power of a Grandmaster was truly immense.

"He's just a Grandmaster, nothing to make a big fuss about!"

A crisp, neither too loud nor too soft snort reached everyone's ears.

As if jolted awake from a dream, everyone lowered their heads somewhat ashamed, an inexplicable sense of shame rising in their hearts, as if they had done something disgraceful.

"What a pair of stunningly beautiful women!"

Cheng Yayü, sitting in his wheelchair, arrived at the entrance of the hall. Though he only saw the backs of the two women, he could already sense their dreamlike, illusory beauty.

"These foul men, do they intend to cause trouble for Your Highness?"

Mu Wanqing's gaze swept over everyone present, filled with intense disgust.

Outwardly, she appeared strong and resolute, but her heart was actually quite soft.

She was the kind of girl who, once she set her mind on someone, would devote herself wholeheartedly.

These people who had come clearly harbored ill intentions.

In her eyes, these people were enemies, enemies who should be eliminated.

"That bad person isn't here. I must protect everyone in his stead."

Wang Yuyan's eyes were filled with unwavering determination.

"I have strength now. As long as I am capable, I must share his burdens and worries."

Wang Yuyan's expression turned cold, her tone flat as she said, "Members of the Alliance, if you have come to hold Your Highness accountable or seek revenge, you must first ask if I agree!"

As soon as her words fell, a chill spread out, and the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped.

Dressed in white, she floated ethereally like a holy fairy, her elegance and grace unmatched in the present age.

Yet the Aura she emitted seemed capable of freezing all things, a cold that seeped from the skin right into the bones.

At this moment, she gazed coldly at the entire gathering. That Aura of looking down on all the heroes of the world actually managed to intimidate the members of the Alliance.

No one dared to show the slightest trace of contempt.

Liang Qing and the others felt their spirits lift, their blood boiling with excitement as they exchanged glances.

"Who would have thought that His Highness's confidante, usually so quiet, refined, and unassuming, could speak with such force now."

"Heh, who among those who have reached the Innate Realm doesn't have a bit of a temper?

She is just gentle with His Highness. Naturally, she wouldn't give these people a pleasant expression."

"Under Ling Luoshi's leadership, the Alliance gathered desperadoes from the border, occupied precarious cities, and looked down on the government.

They are extremely tyrannical and overbearing. Just now, they even used Internal Skill to shout loudly, trying to intimidate us. How laughable!"

People of the Jianghu have always despised the government, viewing it as the claws and teeth of the imperial court.

Those within the government, in turn, look down on the Jianghu folk, regarding them as lawless rebels and bandits.

Beside a yellow-maned steed.

Ling Luoshi's son, Ling Xiaogu, stared intently at Wang Yuyan, his expression infatuated, mixed with a bit of anticipation and hesitation as he said, "T-two young ladies, I..."

"Heh heh heh!"

A sinister laugh cut off his words.

"The Heir Apparent dares not show himself and instead sends two women to block the way. Does he only know how to hide behind women?"

Another strange laugh sounded.

"That's right. This Alliance is truly useless. Their own Sect Leader was killed, they come seeking revenge, and then get frightened by a woman. Is that all they're capable of?"

"If I were with the Alliance, I'd capture these two women first. Then wouldn't that skulking Heir Apparent have to come out?"

Three distinct voices emerged from within the Alliance crowd, seeming to come from everywhere yet leaving no trace to follow.

Hearing these words, Mu Wanqing could finally hold back no longer and sharply rebuked, "Who's talking nonsense? Get out here!"

"Heh heh heh, little girl, if we come out just because you tell us to, wouldn't that be too humiliating?"

"If I come out, will the little girl give me a kiss?"

"Ah, a kiss isn't enough. We'd have to sleep together to really enjoy it!"

The three voices drifted about unpredictably.

Even the members of the Alliance were greatly surprised.

They looked at each other, trying to figure out who was saying these things.

Before setting out, the Alliance members had long since discussed and agreed.

As long as Zhao Fangcai apologized, made amends, and returned the Sect Leader's Token.

The previous grievances would be wiped clean.

In truth, within the Alliance, Ling Luoshi had long lost everyone's approval.

He was too vicious.

So vicious that he eliminated those around him one by one.

Thus, those who wanted him dead were not few.

But no one dared to actually make a move.

Now that he was dead, the Alliance members actually felt a sense of relief.

They had come all this way mostly for show, not truly intending to make new enemies with the Zhao Fangcai who could kill Ling Luoshi.

But now, it seemed someone was secretly causing trouble.

"Which friend is hiding within our Alliance?" Yang Jian, Sect Leader of the Chaotian Sect, couldn't help but shout angrily.

All around was quiet.

Suddenly!

Wang Yuyan moved.

Her movement technique was as fast as ripples on water, a fleeting shadow, gone in a flash.

Immediately followed by three screams.

Within the Alliance, three people in different locations fell from their horses, vomiting blood, their bodies already covered in a layer of frost.

Wang Yuyan's gaze was fierce as she said, "Insulting my Lover Zhao and Sister Mu is seeking death!"

Monk Xiao Sword was startled.

Such fast movement!

Such swift action!

After his initial shock, he immediately leaped from his horse, his movements agile like a rabbit's hop or a falcon's descent, and lifted the masks from the three men's faces.

"They're not our people!"

The people who came out this time were all selected by him and Yang Jian together, but these three faces were completely unfamiliar.

As soon as his words fell, the sound of crossbow bolts whistling through the air and shouts of "Attack!" were heard.

His figure unfurled like the wind, twisting like a whirlwind.

The incoming crossbow bolts, amidst this twisting, fell into his hands one after another.

And seizing this opening, he witnessed a scene of brutal assault and slaughter.

He raised his left hand, gently wiping away the tears on Wang Yuyan and Mu Wanqing's faces, and smilingly declared, "From now on, whoever dares to be rude to my two wives, I will absolutely cut them into pieces."

Seeing him like this, Wang Yuyan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, settled a little.

She stopped crying, a smile appearing on her face. In that moment, she was so beautiful it was dazzling, her cheeks flushed with a hint of playful retort, "Who's your wife?"

"Truly ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, daring to look down on a Grandmaster? Don't even think about escaping! You're dead! How dare you cut off my arm? I will make you pay a heavy price!"

A piercing shout came over.

Wen Xuean stood up, his face deathly pale. The blood from his severed arm had stopped, but his eyes were as vicious as a poisonous snake's.

He was nearly driven to madness.

For a martial artist, losing both arms meant becoming a cripple, with no further chance of reaching the pinnacle of martial arts.

However, he hadn't completely despaired yet.

Wang Yuyan possessed an immortal bone. If he could dig it out and have Yuan Thirteen Limits help with a transplant, there might still be a possibility of reattaching his severed arms.

The intense pain from his severed arms had left Wen Xuean somewhat disoriented. What fueled his rage even more was that these three people were still there, deeply affectionate with each other.
