Chapter 105 I’ll protect you
Xiao Jinghan was shocked, but then he burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, you really think too much! I just want to avenge my blood feud! Being an emperor is not that easy. I have to worry about state affairs all day long and be exhausted. I am not interested in that! It would be nice to assist a wise and powerful monarch!"
Luo Lingyue blinked, and her smart eyes fell on Xiao Jinghan: "So what do you think of my cousin?"
Xiao Jinghan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "If he were to become the emperor, it might be a blessing for the people. It's a pity that he is slightly inferior in terms of wisdom and strategy."
Luo Lingyue rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction and said lightly: "Humph, don't we still have us! As long as you nod and agree, we will be allies from now on. Not only that, I can also lend a hand to you in solving your blood feud!"
After hearing this, Xiao Jinghan's eyes flashed with surprise, and then he solemnly bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, ally!" After that, the two smiled at each other, as if they had already seen a beautiful picture of working together and creating brilliance in the future.
Suddenly, a shrill wolf howl came from a distant place, which made people shudder. Xiao Jinghan's face suddenly became solemn, and he quickly gestured to Luo Lingyue, signaling her to keep quiet.
Xiao Jinghan flashed and jumped onto a tall tree nearby like a flying bird. Standing on the branch, he looked into the distance. When he saw the situation in the distance clearly, his face suddenly turned pale. Then, he jumped down from the tree without hesitation.
After landing, Xiao Jinghan seemed a little panicked, but he still held Luo Lingyue's hand tightly and said anxiously: "Run! The wolves are coming!" As they spoke, the two of them ran away.
However, before they could flee back to the cave where they had been hiding, the wolves came rushing in like a tide and surrounded them. Faced with such a dangerous situation, Xiao Jinghan's hands could not help but tremble slightly, but he still firmly blocked Luo Lingyue behind him and comforted her: "Don't be afraid! I'm here, I will protect you!"
After Luo Lingyue heard this, a warm current surged in her heart. Although Xiao Jinghan looked so thin, he still stepped forward without hesitation and stood in front of her.
Luo Lingyue quietly approached his ear and asked in a low voice: "Do you really know martial arts?" After all, she had seen him leap onto the treetops before, so he must have some basic skills.
After hearing this, Xiao Jinghan showed a trace of shame on his face. He hesitated for a moment before answering, "Well... just a little bit! Don't worry, I won't let you get hurt!"
Without saying a word, Luo Lingyue reached out and pulled him behind her, and comforted him: "Okay, then just stay here and don't move. Let me take care of everything!" After saying that, a hint of determination and courage flashed in her eyes, and she was ready to face the dilemma before her.
Xiao Jinghan was silent for a moment and then slowly said, "Don't hold on. These are all wolves. It's simply not a situation that a weak woman like you who lives in seclusion in the boudoir can handle!"
Hearing this, Luo Lingyue turned around and looked at the man in front of her who was actually posing as if he was ready to die heroically. She couldn't help feeling speechless, and subconsciously took a few steps back and hid behind Xiao Jinghan.
At this moment, the wolf king, who had been in a state of combat readiness and staring at the two of them for a long time, finally couldn't hold back. After careful observation, the wolf king knew very well that the two humans in front of him would definitely not be the opponent of their entire wolf pack. So, accompanied by a deafening roar, the wolf king pounced on Xiao Jinghan at lightning speed...
Just as the extremely sharp, gleaming fangs were about to touch Xiao Jinghan's fragile throat, the leader wolf suddenly let out a shrill howl that echoed through the forest and was terrifying! Then, as if it had been hit hard by something, it jumped back into the wolf pack with its tail between its legs.
The leader wolf's eyes showed obvious fear, as if it had encountered a terrifying existence. It howled twice, as if sending a dangerous signal to its companions. Then, the leader wolf clamped its tail tightly and led the wolf pack to flee the scene at a speed like a gust of wind...
Their figures quickly disappeared into the depths of the dense forest, leaving only an empty silence and a mess on the ground. Xiao Jinghan stood there, staring at the direction where the wolves were going away, his heart full of confusion and surprise. What on earth made these ferocious wolves so afraid?
Xiao Jinghan was filled with fear and confusion. The wolves actually...ran away? He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Luo Lingyue with a slightly trembling voice, "Okay...it seems to be alright! Let's go to the island and see if there is a boat that can rescue us." As he spoke, he tried to calm himself down.
The two walked cautiously towards the edge of the deserted island. Just then, they saw a group of people landing on the island and walking towards them from a distance.
Luo Lingyue recognized the leader at a glance. She waved her hands excitedly and shouted loudly: "Third brother! Third brother! I'm here!" Her voice was full of joy and anticipation.
Hearing his sister's cry, Luo Lingzhang's exhausted face suddenly showed a relieved smile. He quickened his pace and led the guards to run quickly in the direction of Luo Lingyue. It seemed that at this moment, all the tiredness disappeared, leaving only the joy of reuniting with his relatives.
When he was about one meter away from them, Luo Lingzhang suddenly stopped, stared at Xiao Jinghan with an angry face, and snorted coldly: "Oh, Master Xiao is actually safe and sound!" His voice was full of sarcasm and dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, Luo Lingyue on the side hurriedly shouted, "Third brother..." However, before she could finish her words, Luo Lingzhang glared at her fiercely, so she had to shut her mouth.
Luo Lingzhang narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Luo Lingyue, and said sternly: "Shut up! I'll settle the score with you later!" Then, he turned his gaze to Xiao Jinghan, with a cold smile on his face: "Master Xiao, where are my sister's sleeves? As a man, is this how you protect her?"
Xiao Jinghan was about to explain when he was interrupted by Luo Lingzhang without any politeness: "Although Prince Xiao and my sister have been engaged thanks to the grace of Your Majesty, they have not yet gotten married. I hope Prince Xiao can be more self-disciplined and never invite my sister out for fun privately in the future! If there is a next time, don't blame my general's mansion for being ruthless. Even if it costs us everything, we will cancel this marriage for my sister!" When Luo Lingzhang said the last few words, he almost gritted his teeth and squeezed them out, which showed that he was extremely angry.
