The Captivating Crown Prince

Chapter 74



Chapter 74

The sun was high in the sky, and the scenery in this forest was very beautiful. At this moment, Nangong Qian and Shang Wuxin were leisurely strolling in the forest. In the distance stood Leng Zi, and a subordinate of Nangong Qian.

“This King has never had such a view of the scenery since I was ten years old!” Nangong Qian sighed with emotion, “Previously, I had always been disdainful, but now it seems that this scenery is really good!” Perhaps it was because the people around him were very good, but before they had gotten along for even a day, Nangong Qian wanted the time to stop. This young man could stay by his side so meekly.

Shang Wuxin put her fair right hand in front of her eyes and looked at the bright sunlight through her fingers. Her entire body was bathed in this warmth, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly. Even if it wasn’t a warm smile, it was a smile that could topple a country. Fortunately, this smile allowed Nangong Qian to take in his sight. A glint of determination flashed across his eyes.

“If you walk too fast, you’ll always ignore the scenery around you!” In fact, it was not just Nangong Qian, but she as well. She had always been moving forward, never stopping, never stopping. She was here to take revenge for her own survival.

Nangong Qian raised his hand to shield Prince Shang from the scorching sun, and Shang Wuxin’s eyes, which were still rusty from the sunlight, could be completely opened. He listened to Nangong Qian’s voice beside his ear, “The sun is so bright and you still look so unblinking, you’re not afraid of hurting your eyes!”

Nangong Qian’s voice was extremely serious and casual, as if it was just a casual remark. However, if Shang Wuxin raised her head at this moment, she would see the concern and possessiveness in Nangong Qian’s eyes, causing Nangong Qian to exude a sense of taboo.

As for Nangong Qian, she looked at the boy who lowered his head, wanting to touch the top of the boy’s black hair. Perhaps because the surrounding environment was too good, Nangong Qian did not have the spare time to stretch out her hand, but before he could stroke the boy’s long hair, she had already reached out her hand. He heard Prince Shang’s cold voice, “How unpleasant!”

Nangong Qian did not retract his hand; he could already feel that there was someone approaching with a strong killing intent. Nangong Qian’s hand gently caressed the top of the youth’s head, but he quickly retracted it before the youth could resist.

“Prince Shang, rest assured, I will not let anything happen to Prince Shang!” Nangong Qian said confidently. His hand that was stroking Prince Shang’s hair kept on stroking it. He even had a thought that he did not want to wash his hands.

Nangong Qian was making a promise, a promise that he had never even made his own sister. He knew how selfish he was. In a life and death situation, he could not guarantee whether or not he would be willing to abandon himself to protect others. All along, what he had sacrificed was other people’s lives, but at this moment, he was willing to protect the youth.

Towards Nangong Qian’s rare promise, Shang Wuxin did not feel the slightest bit of emotion. His entire body became dark and gloomy, his breath became dark and cold, and even the surrounding wind turned cold. His voice was strange, “I can’t take the lives of anyone!”

Nangong Qian’s bright phoenix eyes were like the eyes of a vicious beast from ancient times. They were cold and savage, as if they could swallow anything! He looked at the assassins in front of them, the smile on his face became frightening. Those people were really worried, even in the country of Shang, he never let go of his thoughts!

“It seems like it won’t be easy for Qian Wang in Nangong!” As Shang Wuxin looked at the dozens of assassins in front of him, he instantly understood that these people were not here to kill him but to kill Nangong Qian. Shang Wuxin had always known that even though Nangong Qian had a lot of power and influence in the Nangong Country, Nangong was like Shang Country with many princes. The only difference was that Emperor Shang supported his own daughter, whereas the Nangong Imperial Clan did not support the best Nangong Qian, but oppressed Nangong Qian. Nangong Qian had grown up from a powerless prince who resisted his Imperial Father’s suppression. In some ways, Shang Wuxin knew that he was inferior to Nangong Qian.

Nangong Qian’s expression became cruel as he raised his right eyebrow, “Is Prince Shang worried about me?” At this time, Nangong Qian was still in the mood to joke, this kind of assassination had never been interrupted ever since he was a child. From the beginning, he would always escape with his life intact, and now that he had the power to fight back, the hard work he put into his hands was unimaginable, but right now, Nangong Qian felt that it was worth it. Not because you can live, but because you can do it when you want to protect someone.

Looking fearlessly at the assassins who had suddenly appeared, he immediately ran towards the crown prince, while Leng Zi watched in a daze as so many assassins appeared. With a puckered face, he ran towards the crown prince.

“Crown Prince!” Fearless stood behind the crown prince, while Leng Zi stood behind him. Every now and then, he would look at the crown prince who was standing in front of so many assassins without any change in his expression.

The assassins apparently did not expect to see the crown prince of Shang and Nangong Qian together, but after much difficulty, they finally encountered the King Qian without his secret guards. As for the crown prince, the assassins also agreed to kill him!

The assassins surrounded Nangong Qian Shang and the five people with their weapons. The killing intent was so strong that both Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian narrowed their eyes at the same time. The two of them moved at the same time, moving like a cheetah to welcome the incoming killer.

Nangong Qian’s weapon was a short blade he carried with him. It looked like a dagger, but the moment he took it out, one could tell it was extremely sharp. Nangong Qian’s movement technique was extremely strange and his attacks were vicious. The short sabers in his hands specifically aimed at avoiding the weapons of those people, aiming at their necks. The killers didn’t pay attention to them and only felt a cold sensation on their necks, followed by a sharp pain from their skin being torn.

When Nangong Qian killed these people, it was as if he was cutting turnips. His eyes were completely numb.

Shang Wuxin leaped up like a leopard, moving swiftly, viciously, and accurately towards the killer. All of his movements were completed in one breath, and his body was nimble as he spun around. The sound of a killer’s neck breaking could be heard with every passing killer. There was no blood, but it was even more terrifying.

Nangong Qian’s underlings were not bad; they were much stronger than the fearless ones. They had always done their part to protect their master and occasionally killed the assassins who were attacking them. He had no fear and wanted to protect the crown prince, but he was being held back by Leng Zi.

He was not afraid of dying when he received the stare from the Crown Prince that he wanted to protect Leng Zi. Of course, he knew that the Crown Prince did not care about Leng Zi, but was simply too overbearing. The Crown Prince who belonged to the Crown Prince during Leng Zi’s time did not wish for his subordinate to be killed right in front of his eyes.

When had Leng Zi ever seen such a bloody scene? He bent his waist and felt his stomach churning. Every now and then, blood would splash at his feet. Leng Zi glanced at the Crown Prince and realized that the Crown Prince was no older than him, and yet he did not show any mercy when he killed. The Crown Prince was clearly doing something that would reap lives, but he was still as virtuous as an immortal. Leng Zi looked like he was in a daze. At this moment, he fearlessly dealt with an assassin with a single strike and shouted at Leng Zi, “Trash!” “If you drag down the Crown Prince, I will definitely be the first to deal with you!”

Only then did Leng Zi come back to her senses. Looking at how fearless she was, she felt that the crown prince must have let her protect her. Leng Zi was even more moved! He picked up his weapon and began to fight for his life. Although his kung fu was not good, it was not a problem for him to protect himself with fearless help.

Although there were a lot of assassins, but they could still resist with just their martial arts. Just as both Shang Wuxin and Nangong Qian felt that this matter was going to be settled soon, they discovered that there were suddenly ten masked men. Even if they didn’t attack, Shang Wuxin’s and Nangong Qian’s complexion changed, because these ten people were not on the same level as the dozens of people just now. Even the two of them weren’t completely confident that they would be able to meet such a powerful opponent.

Nangong Qian looked at these ten people with a pair of phoenix eyes that were like a pond shrouded in moonlight. Within the cold and enchanting crowd, a deadly aura was hidden.

Shang Wuxin could sense that something was wrong with Nangong Qian, as he looked at the ten people who had appeared. Such a powerful person shouldn’t be someone that any prince could have. Otherwise, Nangong Qian would have thought of ways to get rid of him. Then these people …

“How confident are you?” Shang Wuxin asked.

“Fifty percent!” Nangong Qian said with an ugly expression, but he still moved his feet slightly in front of Shang Wuxin. No matter what happened today, he would definitely protect this youth, and he had a feeling that if anything happened to this youth, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Shang Wuxin gave a look of fearlessness. While he was still following orders without any fear or disbelief, he suddenly pulled Nangong Qian, who was standing in front of him, by the hand and flew into the forest. Nangong Qian was dragged along without fighting back, and even the people in the distance could not react. Still, he fearlessly roared, and in the distance, he fearlessly and Leng Zi had already escaped. The ten people did not put fear and the others in their eyes. They were only looking for Nangong Qian and Shang Wuxin.

“Why are you running?” Nangong Qian asked in a dissatisfied manner. However, the lightness technique under his feet did not stop at all. Didn’t he say he was 50% confident?

Shang Wuxin looked at the ten people following behind her and said, “Fifty percent chance is too small, I don’t want to get hurt and I don’t want to die!” Isn’t it courting death to surround and attack us in that empty space? “Only in this forest can we defeat them one by one!”

Shang Wuxin was not as macho as Nangong Qian, as long as he could escape alive, what was that? Moreover, she had not run away just as a strategy, but had also protected the safety of others. Of course, she would do such a clear-cut thing.

Nangong Qian also knew Prince Shang’s intentions, but he could have come up with this idea in the first place. However, when he saw the ten, his thoughts were filled with rage, and that was why he was affected.

“Whose men are these?” Shang Wuxin asked.

Nangong Qian felt much better when he was being held by his hands. His thin lips said, “Father’s person!” “Father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s … father’s …” Even though Nangong Qian was concealing it well, Shang Wuxin could see the sadness in Nangong Qian’s heart. Being chased by his brothers did not matter because they had come to kill him or he had gotten rid of his brothers, but being chased by his Imperial Father and spending so much effort, no matter how cold-blooded Nangong Qian was, he could not help but feel a wave of sadness.

Shang Wuxin could feel her hand hurting from the grip. She should have pulled it back. However, this Nangong Qian made him think about himself in his previous life. Wasn’t he sold by his parents in the past? At that time, she even longed for her parents to kill her and didn’t want to be humiliated like that.

He felt that the frozen heart of Nangong Qian in his hand was still trembling. The suffering he felt was still far away.

Shang Wuxin gave Nangong Qian a glance and they split up, but Nangong Qian refused. He pulled Prince Shang along and jumped into a dense forest. At the same time, the two of them slowed down their breathing …
