Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage
Chapter 521 - 520: Why would you listen to her?

Chapter 521: Chapter 520: Why would you listen to her?

Before leaving the city, Chu Qianli realized someone was following her.

Eventually, she stopped in a small alley at the corner of the bustling market and looked back at the night sky.

"Fu Long, come out."

Fu Long landed in front of her, his gaze carrying a hint of melancholy.

"I had Ziyue send you a message; it’s supposed to reach you tomorrow."

But Fu Long knew her too well; even without receiving the message, he knew she would take action tonight.

"Do you have to leave?" Fu Long even knew that his question was superfluous.

He felt conflicted.

"These three months, please help Ziyue. She used to not care about anything; everything was handled by the Crown Prince. She has never faced such a big occasion before."

Though Wei Xian would certainly help her, before Wei Xian’s intervention, Long Ziyue still had to bear all his rage alone.

Not to mention, Wei Xian is indeed a very strict and even harsh person.

Thinking of her efforts gives one the shivers.

"With Ziyue taking on everything, it will be very difficult."

"I know." Fu Long had no superfluous words.

Since he said he understood, he would surely stay and help Long Ziyue.

Still, it didn’t feel great.

"Three months, I will definitely come back. Fu Long, please don’t be mad, okay? Pretty please!"

She wanted to dismount.

Fu Long huffed, "Don’t dismount; I’m just going to talk to you for a bit."

If he didn’t look so upset, Chu Qianli wouldn’t feel so guilty.

"Fu Long..."

"Three months, if you don’t return, I’ll head back to Beiming and leave Long Ziyue to face it alone. You decide what to do."

"Alright, alright, I’ll definitely be back in three months," Chu Qianli breathed a sigh of relief.

Still, she couldn’t help but dismount and walked up to him, patting his arm.

Fu Long was too tall; it would be difficult to pat his shoulder.

She smiled, "Wait for me, okay?"

"Go on, it’s getting late. After you leave the city, find a place to rest first."

Still, a deep reluctance and worry filled him.

"You are not Prince Yexuan; don’t emulate his way of traveling day and night. You don’t have such a strong constitution."

"I know, I know. I’ll rest well and definitely won’t mistreat myself, really, I promise," Chu Qianli insisted, as if she were about to swear with both hands raised.

Fu Long huffed, his face unconvinced.

Chances are, he didn’t believe her.

"I am really going now." Chu Qianli thought for a moment, took something out of the Universe Chain, and offered it to Fu Long.

"What is this?"

"A lighter. Didn’t you say last time that it’s inconvenient to start a fire outside? This thing is useful and expensive; it will last a long time."

After thrusting the lighter into his hand, she finally smiled, "Wait for me."

"Okay." Fu Long nodded and watched her mount her horse and leave.

Somehow, watching her depart always left him feeling inexplicably heavy-hearted.

There was an uneasiness that even he couldn’t explain or understand.

He wanted to hold her back but knew that by himself, he had no chance of keeping her.

No, not just by himself; even if all the others were added, there was no way to make her stay.

Right now, her heart and eyes were set on only one person, Feng Yexuan.

Hopefully this time, your journey will be smooth, and you can be together without any obstacles.

No more twists and turns!

...With Long Ziyue’s token in hand, Chu Qianli left the city in one go.

But she never expected, in this place, to actually run into this person!

Jian Wuying!

With two swooshing sounds, his Sword Qi was as powerful as before, but this time, Chu Qianli managed to dodge it with a spin.

Jian Wuying stood under the moonlight, the pale moonlight falling on his body, casting a long shadow on the ground.

"To be regarded with new eyes after a mere three days, truly, I didn’t expect that your martial arts could improve so rapidly!"

Jian Wuying was genuinely surprised. It had been only a short three months since they last met, and this young girl’s martial arts attainments seemed to have completely transformed.

Yet Chu Qianli was simply staring at him, "So, the person who spread the news about Prince Yexuan was Yu Linglong?"

Her gaze passed over Jian Wuying, sweeping through the dense forest behind him.

"Since you’re here, why not come out and reveal yourself?"

Under the shadow of the dense forest trees, a figure slowly walked out.

Who else could it be but Yu Linglong?

Chu Qianli narrowed her eyes.

She knew that Yu Linglong, accompanying Feng Yexuan on the military campaign, would surely be thinking about finding opportunities to get close to Feng Yexuan all day long.

How could she not know when Feng Yexuan left the army?

But now, Prince Yexuan had long since returned to Yitie City, and she was still here!

She was clearly targeting her!

Chu Qianli’s palm tightened slightly. A dagger had already found its way into her hand.

When Yu Linglong calmed down, that meticulous mind of hers truly was not to be underestimated.

She just didn’t expect Yu Linglong’s hatred towards her to run so deep.

It even blocked her from following Prince Yexuan’s footsteps.

Otherwise, she should have left right after Feng Yexuan had gone.

"Chu Qianli, I also didn’t expect your feelings for Yexuan to run so deep, to the extent that you would give up the Empress’ throne for him?"

Yu Linglong scoffed, full of disdain, "Before this, you even appeared indifferent to him, insisting on divorcing him!"

"You really are hypocritical!"

Chu Qianli didn’t bother to explain.

There was no need to explain her relationship with Feng Yexuan to this woman.

What did it have to do with Yu Linglong?

The dagger slowly shifted to her left hand, and her right hand held another object.

Jian Wuying had not failed to notice the movements of her left and right hands, but despite watching for a while, he still couldn’t see where she had drawn the items from.

If they were indeed taken from her clothing pockets, then why couldn’t he see the motion of her retrieving them?

Could it be that Chu Qianli’s martial arts had reached such an incredible level?

So fast that even he couldn’t see clearly?

In Chu Qianli’s right hand was her gun.

However, the bullets she had left were now few, down to the last three.

Even if her martial arts had improved dramatically, she couldn’t possibly be a match for Beiming’s number one swordsman. These three bullets were her last chance.

Yu Linglong was getting impatient, "Kill her."

Jian Wuying’s fingers tightened, and his sword under the moonlight glinted with a ghastly glow.

"You’re Beiming’s number one assassin, and hold the honor of being Beiming’s number one swordsman. Such a powerful figure, I really don’t understand why you would take orders from this woman?"

Jian Wuying remained silent.

The cold mask concealed all expressions on his face completely.

Yu Linglong sneered, "What is it to you?"

"Just curious."

"Wuying, she’s just trying to buy time, you..."

As Yu Linglong hadn’t yet finished her sentence, Chu Qianli suddenly raised her hand.

With a bang, a bullet shot toward Jian Wuying’s shoulder blade, fiercely fired!
