Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1430: Chapter 1431: Awkward Misunderstanding 2

Princess Ling Xue felt there was nothing wrong with what she said. It’s not like she could admit she was with Ye Luo, right?

Little did she know, Ye Luo slightly furrowed his brow.

He turned around and tugged at Yun Liancheng: ”Why bother with her? She’s just attracting bees and butterflies!”

In an instant, Ye Luo’s remark drew countless stares, stares that could kill!

How dare he speak of Princess Ling Xue in such a manner, is he seeking death?

And Ling Xue herself was utterly astounded!

If someone else had said this, or if Ye Luo had used different words, it’s unlikely that Princess Ling Xue would have been so agitated.

What does attracting bees and butterflies imply?

Perhaps in Ye Luo’s eyes, it was just a simple phrase, suggesting that many pursued Princess Ling Xue.

But to Princess Ling Xue, the implication was different because in her eyes, there was already an engagement with Ye Luo.

Even though the arrangement was not yet official and Ling Xue herself had not agreed, she felt Ye Luo was accusing her of being unchaste!

Her face turned beet red in the blink of an eye.

”I did not!”

Princess Ling Xue actually responded!

People were flabbergasted, even Yun Liancheng gawked at Ye Luo as if he saw a monster, knowing Ye Luo well.

Thus, he was clearly aware that Ye Luo had a great beauty hiding at home as well as a pretty songstress.

But now, even Princess Ling Xue was acquainted with him?

”Enough, I don’t care whether you did or not. I’ve found my brother. If you’re alright, go amuse yourself!”

Boom!

There was an uproar, and even Yun Liancheng was pulling on Ye Luo.

”Ye Luo, how could you speak to Princess Ling Xue like that!”

”Boy, are you courting death?”

”Damn it, such disrespect to Princess Ling Xue, are you asking for a beating?”

The uproar intensified, with Ye Luo successfully enraging everyone!

Princess Ling Xue, spoiled since birth and never having faced any grievances—her every wish usually granted without opposition—was thrown completely off rhythm by Ye Luo.

Since meeting Ye Luo, Princess Ling Xue realized she could barely keep up with the turns of events!

First, her beloved Mechanism City was taken by him. Now, he’s made such a remark in front of so many people.

The indignation in Princess Ling Xue’s heart was probably understood only by herself. Being unchaste is considered the greatest sin for a woman in the Great Tang Empire!

Although the marriage agreement between Princess Ling Xue and Ye Luo was not yet official, since she had heard of it from her father, subconsciously, she had started to see Ye Luo differently.

Princess Ling Xue’s personality was a bit difficult to describe, broadly speaking, somewhat overly sentimental and indecisive.

There were many situations that Princess Ling Xue could outright refuse, yet she always had to ponder at length.

Just like when she rejected those suitors, she would never do it herself, instead letting the Xiaoyao King or her brothers handle it.

But this time, due to the special circumstances with Ye Luo, even if Princess Ling Xue intended to refuse, she had not yet had the chance to do so.

Therefore, in Princess Ling Xue’s heart, she was still carrying the title of Ye Luo’s fiancée.

Of course, these were just Princess Ling Xue’s own thoughts; in fact, the Xiaoyao King hadn’t actually declared that the marriage was settled.

He only mentioned that the matter had been discussed!

Whether it was due to a comedy of errors or a misunderstanding, in any case, Princess Ling Xue was actually driven to tears at this moment!

Suddenly, a ray of light flashed by, and without regard for the Royal Academy’s restrictions, Princess Ling Xue summoned her own Vajra Command and dashed off into the distance. Clearly, she was intent on returning home. Meanwhile, several figures appeared all at once—it was evidently her personal Guard following her lead.

However, as Princess Ling Xue left, those teardrops rolling down from the corner of her eyes were seen clearly by everyone.

Including Ye Luo.

Ye Luo was utterly dumbfounded!

What was this all about?

This was simply the work of a sly spirit!

In Ye Luo’s mind, it had always been Princess Ling Xue who started trouble with him, hitting him first and now causing such a scene as if it was all Ye Luo’s fault, when in reality, Ye Luo didn’t feel he had done anything wrong at all. He had always thought that it was Princess Ling Xue who was looking for trouble with him!

”Brother Ye, you, you, you...”

Yun Liancheng pointed at Ye Luo, stammering the word ’you’ three times, clearly infuriated by Ye Luo!

The others, however, were not as accommodating towards Ye Luo as Yun Liancheng. At this moment, there arose a chorus of voices calling for a beatdown.

Realizing the situation was not good, Yun Liancheng quickly stepped in front of Ye Luo.

”Gentlemen, gentlemen, this is the Academy. Let’s not be rash. Ye Luo is my brother. If he has done anything wrong, I will apologize on his behalf. I ask everyone to consider that he’s new to the Royal Academy and is our junior brother. Please forgive him this one time!”

Yun Liancheng spread his arms, holding back the crowd.

Within the Cloud Power sect, Yun Liancheng was considered exceptional.

The so-called Cloud Power sect referred to students who cultivated Cloud Spiritual Power.

As Cloud Power was already scarce and even fewer chose to cultivate it, the Cloud Power sect had only two to three hundred members in total. Compared to other sects, it was nothing to be counted.

Yun Liancheng was the top cultivator within the Cloud Power sect; in the Sect’s terms, the first brother, and in the school’s terms, the class monitor.

He naturally had some authority, and with Yun Liancheng blocking the way, Ye Luo was spared from being ganged up on.

Ye Luo hadn’t expected that he would inadvertently invoke the wrath of the masses!

However, it seemed to align with Ye Luo’s own wishes. Let’s not forget, the Border Guard had given Ye Luo the task of challenging the Cloud Power sect, and he had to do it with exceptional swagger!

Now, he had surely been arrogant enough, almost inciting a rebellion within the Cloud Power sect. Wouldn’t that count as swagger?

What remained was the challenge on the sparring platform!

Suddenly, a student from the Cloud Power sect yelled at Ye Luo: ”Kid, I challenge you! Do you dare to accept?”

Challenges like this were completely legitimate at the Royal Academy. Any disciple could challenge another, and if both parties were willing, no one could object.

Therefore, even Yun Liancheng could not say much.

Although Yun Liancheng was angry with Ye Luo’s behavior, after all, Ye Luo was his brother and he would naturally defend him. Unfortunately, when it came to a challenge, as long as it was within the Royal Academy, there was no reason to stop it, and the choice was Ye Luo’s alone to make.

”Fine, a challenge, huh? But you alone are not enough for me to fight. You, you, and you, all come at me together!”

Not only did Ye Luo accept, but he casually pointed at several people, and among them were those with the strongest cultivation in the entire Cloud Power sect, aside from Yun Liancheng!

One could say that Ye Luo was about to take on the entire Cloud Power sect alone!

Even if the Cloud Power sect was short-handed and weaker in strength, after all, it still bore the name of a sect!
