"Hmph! If you don't accept my toast, then you'll have to pay the price. This young master has never failed to get the woman he wanted. Someone, please take these two girls back to the Lou family." Lou Shanhe gestured.
When Ye Liuyun heard this, he sighed helplessly, and then prepared to teach these guys a lesson.
But just when Ye Liuyun was about to take action, Li Wenbin made his move. Li Wenbin, along with his guards, rushed over aggressively.
"Stop, Lou Shanhe, you are so bold that you dare to do such a thing as raping a woman in front of me in Donghai City?" Li Wenbin came to Lou Shanhe as quickly as possible and scolded him righteously.
This made Lou Shanhe, who was originally very happy, dumbfounded for a moment.
"This? Prince, you?" Lou Shanhe wanted to say something here, but was slapped hard in the face by Li Wenbin.
This slap in the face immediately made him say back what he was about to say.
"What do you mean? Come here, throw them all into the sea." Lou Shanhe gave the order directly.
When the guards of the palace heard this, they immediately pounced on the guards of the Lou family with ferocious looks.
"Hey? Prince, please spare me, Prince, I was wrong." Lou Shanhe was so scared that his face turned pale. He was eventually caught by the guards of the palace and thrown into the sea one by one.
Ye Liuyun and Long Lingyun on the side were stunned.
They glanced at the people who were already jumping in the sea, and seeing that they seemed to know how to swim, they were not too worried, so they turned their attention to Li Wenbin.
As for Li Wenbin, he straightened his clothes and then politely bowed to Ye Liuyun and Long Lingyun.
"Ahem, I'm sorry to frighten you two ladies. I'm Li Wenbin, the prince of the Donghai County Prince's Mansion." Li Wenbin introduced himself with a smile.
Ye Liuyun knew that this guy was the first one to arrive here, but he just watched from the side and didn't come over.
Unexpectedly, he still came over and found a very reasonable reason to come over and chat with me.
"This guy seems to be doing it on purpose. With his status, who would dare to come over if he didn't step forward? He must have tacitly allowed these brainless people to come and cause trouble, and then used the excuse of being a flower protector to strike up a conversation with them. That must be the case." Ye Liuyun easily saw through Li Wenbin's thoughts.
It's true, Li Wenbin had the same idea. He knew that the two people's identities were not simple, but he really wanted to come up and get to know them, but he had no legitimate reason.
If he ran up to her rashly, he would definitely be regarded as a playboy, so he kept waiting. Until Lou Shanhe looked impatient, he remembered that he had a very legitimate reason to strike up a conversation with her, which was to be a hero and save the beauty.
Even if the other party still ignores him in the end, at least he should not feel disgusted.
"Oh, the prince of the Prince's Mansion. I am a girl and I am very polite. Thank you for rescuing me." Ye Liuyun did not point out Li Wenbin's thoughts, but pretended to know nothing and returned the greeting.
As soon as Li Wenbin saw Ye Liuyun's teasing and joking eyes, his heart immediately skipped a beat.
"This? How come this look seems like it can see through my thoughts?" Li Wenbin was a little embarrassed.
But since I've done it, I've got to keep pretending.
"Well, ladies, what the guys in the sea said is actually true. This beach is not suitable for staying for a long time. Occasionally, monsters will rush ashore to attack humans. The two ladies are probably not locals, so you don't know about this. Otherwise, with your angelic looks, it would be impossible for me not to recognize you. Why don't you go for a walk in the city and let me show my hospitality." Li Wenbin said with a smile.
This guy's words and attitude are much better than the previous guy. This is a true aristocrat.
If you think about it carefully, how could a royal family member be like ordinary people who can't take their eyes off beautiful women? It's impossible.
Ye Liuyun became interested.
"Hey! My Lord, you're not going to be like that guy taking a bath in the sea, and just lure us two into your palace while walking, right?" Ye Liuyun joked.
This made Li Wenbin unhappy, and he immediately spoke seriously.
"Ah? This? Young lady, you are looking down on me. Yes, the two young ladies do have the temperament and appearance of fairies, but I am not the kind of person who is obsessed with lust."
Ye Liuyun stared at Li Wenbin's eyes.
Although this guy has some peculiar look in his eyes, it is still normal. Ye Liuyun has no other skills, but he has the ability to judge people.
"Haha, don't be angry, Your Excellency. I was just joking with you. Well, we two have had enough fun on the beach, so please ask Your Excellency to be our guide." Ye Liuyun gestured.
When Li Wenbin heard this, he also showed joy. Even though he knew that the two people in front of him were definitely cultivators, he still couldn't resist the urge to get to know them.
He had just been waiting for an opportunity. He didn't want to have any regrets. People like them didn't go there to choose their other half.
But this does not hinder his ideal. Apart from money and status, isn't the ideal of most men to have a perfect partner?
He felt that getting to know the two women in front of him might allow them to be his sweethearts in the future. Anyway, it was the first time in his life that he had an instinctive impulse towards other women.
Ye Liuyun and Long Lingyun followed Li Wenbin and left the beach.
"Hey, Prince." The guards of the palace also hurriedly wanted to catch up.
"Don't follow me, go back by yourselves." Li Wenbin quickly drove those guys away, not wanting them to follow him all the time.
This scared the guards of the palace.
"This? Prince, you can't do that. In this chaotic time, there are miracles falling from the sky outside the city, and now the city is also in great chaos. What if someone with ulterior motives is eyeing you? "The guards of the palace said hurriedly.
But Li Wenbin glared at them again.
"Shut up. If I say don't follow me, then don't follow me. If you dare to follow me, I will break your legs when I get back." Li Wenbin just wanted to be willful for once.
As soon as these words were spoken, the guards were at a loss. However, they still had to follow him, but they followed him secretly and from a distance so as not to let Li Wenbin discover them.
As for those nobles who came to see the beauties, they had no choice but to watch Ye Liuyun, Long Lingyun and Li Wenbin leave.
Ye Liuyun was killing time while waiting for Jiang Wanshan to come back and ask Li Wenbin about the situation in the secular world of Donghuang.
After returning to the city again, Ye Liuyun took the initiative to ask.
"Prince, your Donghai City is really a secluded place. On my way here, I found that there were wars everywhere. Even if there was no war, it was a mess. Only your Donghai City stayed out of it, like an outsider." Ye Liuyun said.
As soon as this was mentioned, Li Wenbin became interested.
"Yes, the East Wilderness is in chaos right now. The three uncles are busy fighting for territories and attacking cities controlled by the imperial court. It won't be long before the East Wilderness is completely out of the control of the Zhongzhou court." Li Wenbin sighed.
After all, this is an internal conflict within the Li royal family. They certainly cannot be happy about it, and there is no way to stop it.
His father said that the decline of the Li family's national fortune was inevitable, and what they had to do was to keep out of it and try not to get involved. No matter who became the emperor, they should support him. This way they could keep their family safe and even keep the title of prince.
"Then, as a member of the royal family, have you ever thought about fighting for it? This is a good opportunity." Ye Liuyun asked with a smile.
Li Wenbin shook his head without any hesitation.
"Struggle also requires capital. Unfortunately, our Donghai County Prince's Mansion does not have this capital. It is great to be able to keep this Donghai City."
Ye Liuyun could see that the Donghai County Prince's Mansion really had no ambition to dominate the world.
But Ye Liuyun felt that in troubled times, many times, it was not possible to really not want to do something just because one wanted to.
Why did he say that? Because not long after Ye Liuyun and his friends entered the city, they felt that there were some strange people around them, observing them in secret, or secretly staring at Li Wenbin.
It’s hard to say what these people do.
The guards around Li Wenbin are all very powerful. With them around, Li Wenbin will definitely be fine. But Li Wenbin suddenly drove the guards away, and she felt that something was about to happen.
"But, Prince, you should understand one thing. Your Donghai County Prince's Mansion is in a chaotic world and you are the royal family. It is difficult to stay completely out of trouble. Look at the people around you. I'm afraid you are going to be in trouble." Ye Liuyun reminded Li Wenbin.
Sure enough, as soon as Ye Liuyun finished speaking, crossbow arrows suddenly shot towards Li Wenbin from the surrounding buildings.
However, when the crossbow arrow was about to approach Ye Liuyun and the others, it suddenly hit an invisible wall and was bounced away.
"Huh?" Li Wenbin was startled.
The man who was secretly shooting arrows upstairs was also startled, as if he had seen something incredible.
Long Lingyun just glanced at the person at the window over there, without much reaction.
"This? The two girls are indeed cultivators." Li Wenbin watched the arrow being bounced off by an invisible force and for a moment he was completely certain of his previous opinion.
Ye Liuyun chuckled.
"Didn't you know this a long time ago? With your status, you are definitely not comparable to that ignorant person. Moreover, Prince, you must also know that the two of us will never let others kill you in front of us." Ye Liuyun said with a smile.
When Li Wenbin heard this, he immediately felt relieved.
"Please, two fairies, save me." Li Wenbin requested decisively.
"Don't worry, since you are our guide, we will definitely not let you get hurt." Ye Liuyun looked indifferent.
As for the guys around them, before they could succeed in their attack, more than a dozen masked killers flew down from all directions and surrounded them.
"You two little bitches, stop meddling in other people's business. Swords have no eyes. We want to kill him, not you. Get out of here." A masked man said in a deep voice to Li Wenbin and Ye Liuyun.
But Ye Liuyun ignored them and looked at Li Wenbin.
"Who do you think these people are? Are they our own people, the imperial court, or rebels against the king?" Ye Liuyun asked.
Li Wenbin just looked at them, then glanced behind him. He found that a battle was also taking place in the distance behind him. The guards following Li Wenbin were fighting with other killers.
"It should be sent by my other brothers." Li Wenbin sighed after observing for a while.
He seemed very sad in his words.
Anyway, his identity is extremely risky. His brothers at home are concerned about him, and so are some forces with ulterior motives.
For example, if someone was sent by the imperial court and wanted to assassinate Li Wenbin and then pin the blame on those rebel kings, then the Prince of Donghai would definitely have to stand on the side of the imperial court and resist those other princes.
Similarly, it is also possible that one of those princes was sent to kill Li Wenbin and then put the blame on the court, forcing the Prince of Donghai to rebel against the court.
All of these are possible, and Li Wenbin also knows that he is in danger. The guards just said that if some people with ulterior motives target Li Wenbin, it will not be good.
It’s a pity that Li Wenbin still has some brains. He knows that with these two beauties around him, he can’t just sit back and watch.
With the two of them around, these killers are no longer a concern.
Chapter 440: Starting Again (5000 words + 3000 monthly tickets plus more)
Ye Liuyun scanned the surroundings with her spiritual sense and found that although Li Wenbin's guards had been following from a distance, they were intercepted by another wave of killers. It was obviously impossible for them to come to rescue him.
"My Lord, are you very brave? Or are you betting that the two of us will help you? Why do I feel like you are taking advantage of us sisters?" Ye Liuyun teased, staring at Li Wenbin with narrowed eyes.
When Li Wenbin heard this, his expression suddenly became awkward. He found that his thoughts really could not escape Ye Liuyun's eyes at all.
Yes, he had to admit that he did have some intention and other thoughts.
First, he really wanted to strike up a conversation with Ye Liuyun and Long Lingyun.
Second, he also knew that someone was secretly watching him and wanted to find an opportunity to kill him, but he didn't know who these people were or where they came from.
Third, after he found out that Ye Liuyun and the other man were immortal cultivators, he had some special thoughts and a certain gambling mentality, betting that these two immortal cultivators would help him.
Otherwise, you will always live in fear and will be closed down sooner or later.
Li Wenbin now had no other explanation except to laugh dryly. After all, Ye Liuyun had already seen through his thoughts, so there was no point in talking nonsense.
"Tsk! If you don't tell me, I'll take it as your consent. You're so young, but you're so deep in thought. You're worthy of being a member of the royal family. Alas! Your heart is not pure at all." Ye Liuyun murmured.
After saying that, she looked at Long Lingyun.
"Sister Long, please don't do it. Let me do it." Ye Liuyun first sighed helplessly at Li Wenbin, and then said to Long Lingyun.
Long Lingyun nodded without hesitation. It was not appropriate for her to take action in broad daylight as it would easily expose her identity.
Ye Liuyun walked up to the two of them with a smile and spoke to the masked killers.
"Hey! You scoundrels, you actually want to kill the prince of a county in broad daylight in Donghai City. Are you willing to die? Even if you succeed, you will probably all die here. Why bother? Just retreat."
Ye Liuyun's calm and composed look, as if he was not afraid of them at all, made these people look a little uneasy.
After all, Ye Liuyun gave them the impression of a weak woman who was powerless, but she was obviously a woman, yet she dared to speak to them in such a tone.
What they didn't know was that the guy who shot the arrow not long ago, when he saw his arrow being blocked by an invisible force, his face changed and he ran away as fast as he could.
This guy must have realized something and knew that even if more of them came, it would be impossible to complete this mission.
But this guy was really disloyal. He actually left his companions behind and ran away alone.
"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense. Since you won't move out of the way, don't blame us for being ruthless. Kill, kill all three of them." These were desperate criminals hired by the person behind the scenes. They would definitely not give up just because of Ye Liuyun's words.
After receiving the order, more than a dozen killers pounced on the three of them in an instant.
Ye Liuyun sighed helplessly. Her body flickered like a screen and seemed to move, but ordinary people could not catch Ye Liuyun's movements at all, so it looked like she didn't move at all.
But in fact, Ye Liuyun swept past these dozen people at an extremely fast speed, gently tapped them on the back of their heads, and then returned to his original position.
So the movements of these dozen people suddenly stopped, and then they lay down quickly, sleeping peacefully without any pain.
This scene made the people around who had not yet reacted look confused. They didn't know what happened to the dozen killers and why they suddenly fell down.
"Oh, that's boring. It's done, Your Majesty. I deliberately spared their lives. Call for help quickly." Ye Liuyun gestured.
After being stunned for a moment, Li Wenbin immediately shouted at the top of his voice.
"I am the prince of Donghai County, Li Wenbin, come and save me."
This shout quickly attracted the patrolling soldiers around. The other killers hiding in the dark also stopped decisively and retreated after seeing Ye Liuyun's methods.
There was no way to fight this. They didn't even see clearly how the other side attacked, and all their men fell down. If they went up, they would be courting death.
