Chapter 668: Chapter 667: Bastard, Let Go!
Feng Yexuan awoke with a start at midnight.
Drenched in cold sweat.
Glancing over, he saw Xiaoyao asleep in the bed, breathing evenly.
But his mind was unsettled.
Indeed, as soon as he stepped out, Ding Chen, one of the "Four Killers," arrived.
"The fifth brother is being pursued by Jianghu martial artists?" Though Feng Yexuan’s expression remained unchanged, those familiar with him knew he was, at that moment, anxious!
Ding Chen nodded, "Yes, Prince, it’s said that a group of Jianghu martial artists received an assassination bounty worth five hundred taels of gold."
"They say the fifth prince was rescued by a girl skilled with hidden weapons, but afterwards, they were apparently forced to fall off a cliff."
Ding Chen was the one among the Four Killers responsible for intelligence.
Feng Yexuan waved his hand, sending Ding Chen away, and Yuxing appeared.
"You go and search. Leave signals for me along the way."
Yuxing, with the best Qinggong and smallest stature, was usually in charge of tracking.
"Yes!" With a nod, Yuxing turned and left.
Leng Ji, hearing the news, hurried over: "Prince, the fifth brother never meddles in court affairs. He shouldn’t have enemies, and he left this time just to find an old friend. It’d be unreasonable for someone to pursue him."
It was precisely because of this that Feng Yexuan had sent Feng Wuya out to find Wu Chenzi with complete reassurance.
A legendary figure, and another who’d been frail and sickly since childhood, unable to make enemies—neither of these two people should logically have adversaries.
Previously, when Feng Wuya hurried back from Longteng, he was ambushed. That was the doing of someone hoping Beiming’s fifth prince would die in Longteng, igniting enmity between the two nations.
But now, back in Beiming, why would he still be subject to an assassination attempt?
Five hundred taels of gold... who paid such a hefty sum for Wuya’s life?
If one were to say Wuya’s actions harmed certain people’s interests, then, the suspect, was only one.
Feng Yexuan left with a cold expression, walking towards the outside.
Worried, Leng Ji asked, "Prince, are you leaving the city?"
Feng Yexuan didn’t speak, just nodded.
Leng Ji hurried after him: "Prince, if you’re going to look for the fifth brother, it’s not too far, but shouldn’t you first call for Liujin? We’ll need a doctor on the road, in case the fifth brother... "
That damned Liujin, exactly when he’s needed, he’s out and not returning.
"Perhaps we can find a different doctor..."
These words made Feng Yexuan’s steps falter, and suddenly he turned around, heading back to his own bedroom.
"Prince..." Leng Ji reached the doorway but stopped, not following inside.
He hadn’t forgotten that there was a girl inside the room.
Xiaoyao, who was sleeping in a daze, was suddenly picked up.
"Damn Prince! Let go!"
She hadn’t woken up yet and hadn’t seen clearly who was picking her up.
She didn’t even remember that calling someone a "Damn Prince" was highly disrespectful.
Still groggy in her daze!
But even in her muddled state, she knew there was only one person who would treat her so roughly.
That was the "Damn Prince" Feng Yexuan!
Feng Yexuan paused for a moment, looking down at her.
Her eyes were bleary with sleep; clearly, she hadn’t come to her senses yet.
"Damn Prince"?
So that’s how she referred to him in her heart!
This brazen girl had some nerve!
But he was too anxious at the moment to argue with her. After a whistle, the black steed Jifeng hurried to his side.
Poor Xiaoyao didn’t even have time to understand what was happening before she was tossed onto the horse’s back.
The horse charged into the wind, the savage breeze both cold and unsettling.
Without even opening her eyes, she instinctively turned back, wrapping her arms around the man behind her: "It’s so cold!"
