Chapter 264: Memories of the past Part5

“Ok. Since you are on your knees and begging me so desperately, I will consider letting you go.” Layla sneered.

Tang Yue was clearly not on her knees and not begging, but the woman enunciated the words to make sure that she got the hint.

Tang Yue, however, stood still. She absolutely had no intention of kneeling or begging.

She sighed helplessly and shook her head. She now knew that she had no other choice.

It didn’t matter that she wanted to avoid unnecessary conflict.

Clearly, the other party was hell bent on seeking death.

Just how much can a person try and reason with an idiot? 

They neither understood logic nor understood consequences. It was just a waste of time.

Tang Yue was about to make a move when Layla scoffed again.

“Listen don’t waste my time and dawdle here. I have work to do and I don’t have time to play with trash like you.”

Tang Yue’s eyes flew wide. This princess was stealing her lines and had just now spoken out loud about what was there in her mind.

“Leave your slave and your pet. They belong to me now. That will be your punishment for letting them run wild. Hmph.” Layla magnanimously crossed her arms.

Tang Yue nodded. “Sure.” She smiled. After all, what was the point in refusing a dying person’s wish?

She flicked her hand and lazily summoned her soul sword. 

Charlotte as well saw what she was doing and stood up, ready to slaughter the pigs in front of her.

But before either of them could act, suddenly a powerful gust of wind materialized in front of them, right in the middle of the two groups.

The newly arrived party had a very strong aura and was most definitely a late stage Saint realm expert.

If they fight now, there is no way that this situation goes unnoticed. 

The fight won’t end quickly and there will be traces of the conflict left behind.

This was definitely bad.

Tang Yue quickly thought about the various options she had and made a split second decision.

Nothing had been done yet. The milk was still in the container and hadn’t been spilled yet.

So she instantly dismissed her soul sword even before it could fully materialize and acted as if nothing had happened.

Charlotte as well noticed Tang Yue’s actions and calmed down immediately.

The two silently gazed at the man standing in front of them. This man was their opponent right now.

The lean and muscular dwarf was surprisingly also wearing royal regalia just like the dwarven princess and he had a very casual amused expression.

The man had sharp pointed nose, attractive eyes and a face that could put anyone to ease.

He didn’t look like he had come here to fight at all. He was extremely calm, composed and relaxed.

“Now. Now. Let’s stop things here. My little sister sometimes leaves her brain in the palace.” The dwarf chuckled and rubbed Layla’s head.

Layla was furious. Her face darkened when she heard the words spoken by her brother.

“Jorden!!!” She snapped. 

It was one thing for her bastard brother to talk like this in private but it was an entirely different matter in public.

She wanted to shout at him, but Layla couldn’t bear to talk rudely to her brother even though he had just dissed her in public, in front of her friends.

Tang Yue was amused. What is going on here? A bro-con sister?

She decided to patiently wait and watch the things unfold instead of rushing in without all the details.

And further surprising her, Prince Jorden continued to ignore Layla and addressed Tang Yue.

“You two are free to leave.” 

He did not say anything else or make any other remark. He simply flashed a gentle smile and casually spoke.

Tang Yue nodded and bowed. 

She showed the respect that a royal family member deserved and silently turned to walk away along with Charlotte and Little Blue.

But inwardly, Tang Yue found the situation very suspicious.

The dwarf had acted in a timely manner with extreme precision. How could such coincidences be possible?

All hell was about to break loose and this man simply ended everything in the span of a second.

He definitely knew more than he was leading on. She would be a fool to believe otherwise.

Tang Yue silently walked away but she was on high alert. 

She was sure that her disguise was not compromised but that didn’t mean something else fishy was not going on.

After all, she was just about to attack and massacre a member of the dwarven royal family openly.

Why did the Prince still let them walk away without any consequences? 

Tang Yue was deeply engrossed in her thoughts when she felt a small tug on her robe.

Huh? Tang Yue turned around and she saw Charlotte nervously looking at her with a guilty expression.

“I am so sorry, Yue. I am just bringing you troubles.” She mumbled.

“What are you saying? Don’t be an idiot. Weren’t you just protecting Little Blue?”

“Umm… But still…”

“It’s fine. Don’t worry about it too much.”

The group then returned back to the smithy without any other incidents on the way.

Tang Yue was still feeling uneasy about the entire event and had forgotten about her rune set up.

When everyone returned, Charlotte immediately gasped at the elaborate design on the smithy’s floor.

The runes were drawn in blood and looked extremely complicated.

“This… Umm… What is this Yue?” Charlotte asked.

“Oh… That’s a domain rune. A Lightning domain rune.” Tang Yue explained.

She didn’t hide it from Charlotte. These were simple things and she trusted Charlotte enough to tell her these things.

“Why have you drawn it here?” The elf asked her curiously.

“I am planning to use it for physical conditioning.”

“What??? Are you being serious? This is suicidal!!!” Charlotte couldn’t believe her eyes.

She had heard about several different types of body tempering but had never heard anything as crazy as this.
