Chapter 132: Criminal? Are You Referring To Me? (3)
“Pack up and get ready to set off,” Leng Ruoxue reminded.
“Miss, we packed up yesterday morning,” Lin Yuan said. They wouldn’t have dared to get drunk last night otherwise!
“Then go and settle the bill. Ask everyone to gather downstairs,” Leng Ruoxue ordered. She took out an amethyst card and handed it to Lin Yuan.
“Okay.”
After leaving the reception room, Leng Ruoxue went straight to her grandfather’s room.
“Grandpa, are you ready? We’re leaving,” Leng Ruoxue said after knocking on the door.
“Ready.” Leng Qingtian opened the door.
Then Leng Ruoxue called her brother and Freak. They met Feng Moran in the corridor and went downstairs together.
After arriving downstairs, Leng Ruoxue and the group from the Heavenly Phoenix Academy were surrounded by officers and soldiers.
“What’s the meaning of this?” Leng Ruoxue pushed aside the crowd. The cold light in her eyes was intimidating, and killing intent flashed past.
“By the decree of Noble Consort Xu, we are here to arrest the criminal who harmed the princess,” an officer who looked like the leader said very formally.
“Criminal? Are you referring to me?” Leng Ruoxue said indifferently with a light smile. No wonder Noble Consort Xu hadn’t done anything the past few days. So she was waiting for the Academy Competition to end!
“The person we’re going to arrest is Leng Ruoxue,” the officer said calmly. He knew that Leng Ruoxue wasn’t to be trifled with, but he dared to go to the Elegance Lagoon Pavilion to capture her because of Noble Consort Xu’s support.
“Does the emperor of the Southern Dusk Empire know that you’re here to arrest me?” Leng Ruoxue asked.
“Erm… Erm, the imperial decree of the noble consort is of course His Majesty’s will,” the officer said while forcing himself to be calm, but his words weren’t confident.
“Is that so? I really didn’t know that this is the way the Southern Dusk Empire treats guests. Everyone here has their own opinions about what happened that day. Think of a better reason if you want to arrest me!” What Leng Ruoxue implied was that it was impossible to make her stay with such a reason.
“Grandpa, Elder Qiu, let’s go!” Leng Ruoxue said, ignoring the soldiers surrounding them. It was really unbecoming of her status to bicker with such a small fry.
“Okay.” No one cared about such a small character.
“None of you are allowed to leave. Arrest all of them,” the officer hurriedly ordered when he saw that he couldn’t keep them any longer. Noble Consort Xu wouldn’t let him go if this matter went wrong.
Leng Ruoxue impatiently raised her white hand, and a huge stream of fire-attribute spiritual power flew toward the officers and soldiers. Immediately, they were all sent flying several meters away, and their bodies were burning with purplish-red flames…
“Aaahhhh! Aaahhhh!” They screamed in pain as they rolled on the ground…
“Miss Leng, we’re so sorry for startling you,” Huangfu Lian apologized as he walked to Leng Ruoxue.
“What? Your Highness the Crown Prince is also here to capture me?” Leng Ruoxue said mockingly.
“Of course not. I’m here on Imperial Father’s orders to see Miss Leng off,” Huangfu Lian quickly said. Alas! Imperial Mother was right. Miss Leng is really angry.
“Your Southern Dusk imperial family is really interesting. The imperial consort wants to arrest me, but the emperor wants to send me off. Who is the decision maker in the end?” Leng Ruoxue asked with curiosity and puzzlement on her face, seemingly wanting to know more.
“Of course it’s my imperial father.” Cold sweat rolled down Huangfu Lian’s forehead. His imperial father would be so angry if he heard this!
“Oh, that’s good. Then can we go now?” Leng Ruoxue asked.
“Of course you can. I’ll send you off,” Huangfu Lian said with a gentle smile on his face.
“Grandpa, we can go now. With the crown prince protecting us, we don’t have to be afraid. I don’t think anyone will dare to stop us,” Leng Ruoxue said to Leng Qingtian with an innocent expression.
“That’s good. Grandpa is getting old, and I really can’t take being scared,” Leng Qingtian said very cooperatively while pretending to touch his heart.
Everyone was flabbergasted upon hearing this. Please, you are a Spiritual Supremacy! I’ve never heard of a Spiritual Supremacy being scared!
“Grandpa, don’t be scared. The crown prince will protect us,” Leng Ruoxue comforted.
“Yes. Xue’er, let’s go quickly. Otherwise, who knows what might come and stop us later,” Leng Qingtian said fearfully, as though he couldn’t wait to leave right away.
“Then let’s go!” Freak stepped forward and held Leng Qingtian’s arm.
“Wait! Wait for me.” Just as everyone was about to leave, they heard someone shouting in the distance…
There really was something else! Hearing this voice, everyone couldn’t help but worry in their hearts. Even General Leng was about to become a diviner.
A flying spirit beast landed beside them, and Huo Qing jumped off.
“Wait for me. I’ll go with you,” Huo Qing said while panting slightly.
“Why are you following us? We don’t welcome you,” Freak roared while cursing Huo Qing in his heart. This person is too annoying.
Huo Qing ignored Ye Chen’s unfriendly demeanor and said with a faint smile, “I will also be a student of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy in the future. Of course I have to go with you!”
“What?” Freak was angry! He couldn’t stay calm anymore! Why does this guy keep haunting us? He was so angry.
“I’ve decided to transfer to the Heavenly Phoenix Academy. Elder Qiu, may I?” Huo Qing directly asked Elder Qiu, ignoring a certain person’s anger.
“Erm… Erm, you have to ask the principal. I’m only an elder, so it’s not up to me. Besides, will the Rising Dragon Academy agree to it?” Elder Qiu said spinelessly under Ye Chen’s threatening glare. Boohoo… I’m just an elder. Why make things difficult for me?
“Ruoxue, you will welcome me, right?” Huo Qing set his sights on Leng Ruoxue. He wanted to transfer schools because of her.
“No,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly.
“Why?” Huo Qing was a little confused. Am I that unpopular? Moreover, Ye Chen’s smug expression made him uncomfortable.
