"You!" Jing Yanxi glared at her sister with growing anger, but at this time she couldn't add any more trouble. Jing Yanxi cursed inwardly. "Damn! This child really makes me angry. But he will definitely complain about this to father!"

"Huh! Do you think I will be afraid of your threat?" Jing Yunxi pouted her mouth at Jing Yanxi. Then, the girl turned to look at Hua Fei.

"Brother Fei! Is Brother Fei okay?" Jing Yunxi squatted down and helped Hua Fei to get up. The little girl's eyes looked very worried when she saw that the condition of the boy she secretly admired didn't look very good.

"I'm fine. Don't worry!" Hua Fei replied while wiping the blood on the corner of his lips with the corner of his dirty sleeve. Even though the pretty handsome boy's entire body felt sore and bruised, he chose to move his body away from the beautiful-looking little girl from the Jing Family.

“Young Master Hua, let me help you walk!” A female bodyguard offered to help. However, of course Hua Fei would reject it by shaking his head.

"I can do it myself!" Hua Fei gently pushed away the bodyguard's hand as she tried to get up. For a few moments, he managed to stand up and walk over to take Jing Ling's basket containing snakes. However, his state of being too weak made him unsteady again.

"Brother Fei, be careful!"

However, the situation is not very good. Hua Fei's body could no longer endure the continuous pain caused by the torture from Jing Yanxi's men, which was quite brutal. Suddenly, this boy staggered and immediately fell to the ground.

"Young Master Hua Fei!" One of the female bodyguards quickly approached the long-haired boy with a sweet and gentle face.

"Brother Fei!" Jing Yunxi screamed spontaneously when she saw Hua Fei's body fall again.

The bamboo basket he was carrying also rolled over until the cover opened. No wonder, dozens of black and red striped snakes scattered out of the bamboo basket. However, strangely, the movements of dozens of reptiles are not as agile as snakes in general. They were so slow, as if they were reluctant to leave the place where they were scattered.

"Mm--my snake!" Hua Fei tried to move to grab some of the black and red striped snakes that he might still be able to catch back. He spoke in his heart. "Aiyaaa! Little Brother Ling's snakes are all loose! He'll definitely be very disappointed later!"

"Snakes? Turns out the basket contains snakes!" One of the female bodyguards jumped in surprise and looked frightened. "There are so many of them!"

"Aaaaah! Ss-snake!" Jing Yunxi screamed hysterically, as several snakes slithered as if they were going to approach her. "Brother Feeeei, I'm scared!"

The guards looked panicked by the snakes scattering from the bamboo baskets. However, they still thought about the safety of their lady. "Little Miss, be careful and get out of the way!"

Jing Yunxi could only stand frozen in place with her face as pale as cotton, she even lifted one of her legs to look at a small snake moving nearby. "Aaaaahh! Help!"

"Little Miss, calm down! We will kill them all!"

Hua Fei whispered in a barely audible voice. "Please don't kill them! I have to bring them alive to our teacher!"

It seemed that the six female bodyguards did not hear Hua Fei's words at all, who were drowned out by the noise and screams of the people who were busy killing the black and red striped snakes that she and Jing Ling had worked so hard to achieve.

"Get rid of the snakes before they attack us!" shouted the sadistic looking guard.

Several female bodyguards immediately drew their swords to slash the bodies of the snakes with this very deadly poison. Hua Fei immediately stopped their actions, the boy said in a low and almost inaudible voice.

"Please don't kill them! Little Brother Ling took great pains to catch them all!"

"But these are very dangerous snakes!" shouted one of the female guards as she continued to slash her short sword at the snakes who were trying to escape. "They could kill us all!"

“Little Miss, move away quickly!” shouted one of the women who was busy dealing with Jing Ling's snakes until there were none left. Jing Yunxi quickly ran and hid behind one of her bodyguards.

"Please! Please! Don't kill them!" Hua Fei, who was helpless, could only watch with sadness at the corpses of the black and red striped snakes that could no longer be saved.

"You have killed them all!" How devastated Hua Fei felt at the killing of the snakes he and Jing Ling had caught.

"You don't know how important those animals are to us!" Hua Fei shed tears, because he also hunted them from early in the morning until noon. The two boys had to enter the dense forest and follow the river from the end of the valley to the top of the hill just to hunt this dangerous animal.

"Young Master Hua, if we don't kill those dangerous beasts, then we will be the ones they attack." Jing Yunxi's personal bodyguard said as she put away the snake corpses.

"Did you see them attacking you? They can't even move like before we caught them. Because we have paralyzed them." Hua Fei spoke while moving slowly to collect the corpses of the snakes. "Even though they are dead, I still have to take them all!"

Jing Yunxi's bodyguards looked at each other guiltily. Now they all realized that the beast meant a lot to the two young masters of the Cloud Valley Sect.

"Even though a dead snake might not be included in the assessment, I hope Jiang Lao is willing to give us another chance," Hua Fei said softly with teary eyes.

"How is this? Will we not be able to pass to the next stage?"

The rice has become porridge, regretting what has happened is also useless. Even though it felt very unlucky, Hua Fei tried hard to calm herself down. "What can I do? It's all happened."

    "Miss, isn't that inappropriate?" Another voice came from under a thick, shady redtop tree. The voice was very familiar to Hua Fei and Jing Yunxi. "You'd better go home now!""It's none of your business, where I want to go!" Jing Yunxi replied in an indifferent tone to a boy who was standing leaning against the tree trunk. "Heh! What are you doing here?"The young man who had just arrived seemed very indifferent to this little girl. If you look at the attitude of both of them, they don't seem to like each other. However, the female bodyguards who came with Jing Yunxi still saluted the boy."Shouldn't I be the one asking you, what are you doing here?" It seemed like the kid had been there for quite some time. However, he seemed reluctant to approach Jing Yunxi. "A girl looking for a boy. Isn't that very inappropriate?"Jing Yunxi, who was starting to feel very angry, finally shouted, "Shut up!""Huh, just good at bluffing!" The young man dressed in a blue and white hanfu immediately ap

"Ah Ling, what's wrong with my son?""Madam! Young master, Madam!" From a distance a female servant came running until her breath seemed to stop.Jing Yue rushed over to the maidservant of her residence. "What's wrong with Ah Ling?""Ma--Madam! Madam!""Ah Ruo, tell me what's wrong?" Jing Yue became more and more curious, so she pressed the woman who was panting while holding her chest.Su Ruo tried hard to regulate her chaotic breathing and gasped for breath. "Young master passed out!""What?" Jing Yue's surprise was not artificial. "Fainted? My Ah Ling fainted?"Su Ruo nodded her head with a worried face. "That's right, Madam. It was the guards from the Jing Family who brought Young Master Jing Ling.""Jing Family Guards? That means….""Okay, let's see!" Jing Yue could already guess what had just

    Jing Ling was shocked. How could he forget Hua Fei who had clearly been with him against Jing Yanxi and his followers?"Brother Fei, I don't know his current situation either, Mother. I only remember that he also fought with those children.""Okay. Mother will see the situation outside. Now you continue to rest accompanied by Aunt Su Ying." Jing Yue adjusted Jing Ling's blanket."Okay mom." Jing Ling could only obey what her mother said. The young man looked at his mother's departure with feelings of guilt."This is all because I'm lazy about practicing all the knowledge my father taught me." Jing Ling said in his heart. He seemed to still be staring at the blanket feeling very sorry."After this incident, I just realized all my mistakes. When my father comes back, I promise to train hard for the sake of me and my family!" Jing Ling clenched his fists. "Especially to take revenge for the actions of the people who abandoned me and my mother!""Jiu Wang! Wait for that moment to come. I

    "Oh, y--yes, yes ... Dad!"Jing Yanxi dared to raise his face and immediately found his father's eyes which looked wide and very scary. When they really looked at each other, Jing Yanxi's heart trembled with horror as she exclaimed in her heart. "Dad is so scary!""How did you know such a story? You were only two at that time!" Jing Cheng shouted at his son in a fit of anger. He stared closely at the child's face who looked back at his father with fear shining in his eyes."Mother told me, Father. And mother also forbade me from hanging out with Jing Ling!" Jing Yanxi answered with some trepidation in his heart."Your mother?" Jing Feng looked surprised by his son's honesty. The man muttered in his heart. "Jia Yan told this child?""So, he actually still holds feelings of resentment towards the Drunken God Swordsman?" Jing Cheng looked serious this time. "This can't continue! This will ruin my relationship with Ah Yue and Hua Yan!""Why do you listen to your mother's story? Even if it

    "Calm down, Ah Lin! Sister will not be angry with them. In fact, sister will hold Jing Cheng responsible for what his son has done." Jing Yue spoke while holding back feelings of anger but still had to try to remain calm in front of these children."Big Sister will demand justice for you!""But, Auntie!" Hua Fei objected to Jing Yue's intentions."But, Auntie. I'm worried that in the future he will become more vengeful towards us and Little Brother Ling who continues to be bullied by that child," said Hua Fei, who objected to Jing Yue's plan."Ah Fei, if a spoiled and arrogant child like that arrogant one is not taught a lesson, he will probably continue to bully anyone as he pleases. You remember Miss Xiao Lu! She is also often bullied by him!"Hua Fei mumbled, “Miss Xiao Lu….”Hua Fei still remembered very well the fate of the fat lady who was always chasing Jing Yanxi. The girl always received insults from the boy she liked. However, Xiao Lu always accepted whatever Jing Yangxi tre

As one of the three young masters of the Yang Family, he was indeed very privileged. Likewise, Hua Ling also received the same treatment as the other two young masters.At another place."Ah Cheng! Get out!" Jing Yue shouted in front of the pavilion that was the residence occupied by her male cousin Jing Cheng.Several male bodyguards immediately surrounded the beautiful woman who had drawn her sword. Jing Yue's gaze conveyed the anger that had flared up.“Mrs Yue, could you please be a little nicer and not make a scene?” One of the bodyguards felt irritated by Jing Yue's attitude, which he thought was very arrogant."Shut up!" Jing Yue snapped as she twisted her body with a swift movement, then pointed her sword at the neck of the male bodyguard who dared to alert her. Jing Yue felt very offended by the male bodyguard's extremely inappropriat

Jing Yue glared at her cousin with sharp eyes.Jing Cheng could only sigh, his breath feeling heavy due to the crush of problems caused by his son's actions. The man just shook his head repeatedly. "Okay!""Yue, let's talk about this carefully!" Jing Cheng spoke in a gentle tone as he invited Jing Yue to come in. “Yue, please!”"Hmm, ok! But on one condition, summon that child to me right now!" Jing Yue said without changing her position. "I want to know the reason, why he is always rude to my child!""Yue, he just came from this place. Maybe right now, the child is bathing or eating. Yue, have a little pity on Yanxi. I also just scolded him." Jing Cheng tried to remain calm in his words."Reason!" Jing Yue sn

    "If Mom asks, am I afraid?" Jing Ling said honestly. "Of course I'm afraid. Very afraid, even. Just hearing stories about his cruelty makes my heart tremble and doubt. But I will try to overcome that fear for the sake of my family!""Mother, please pray for me so that I can become stronger and be able to fulfill your wishes!" Jing Ling clenched both hands into fists.Jing Yue was even more moved. "Of course mother will always pray for you. You are mother's only happiness, pride and hope.""Prayer alone is not enough if it is not balanced with hard training. It's like someone wants to lift a mountain, but is too lazy to move."

Jing Ling shouted as he continued to swing the spear while making a rotating motion, thrusting forward, spinning the blade with agile movements."The strong wind waves were enough to knock down the sapling hill!"The young man then jumped quite high and slashed the spearhead at the curtain that was hanging as a decoration. In just one swipe, the red cloth was cut into two pieces and flew very gently, then fell towards Jing Yue."Sharp!" Jing Ling exclaimed while her body was still in the air. "This spearhead is very sharp!"Jing Yu

But you don't need to thank him.""No need to thank him?" Jing Ling's black eyebrows furrowed in surprise. "Who do you mean, Mother?""That ... I'll tell you slowly later," answered Jing Yue, sadly."Hmm, Mother seems to be starting to enjoy playing puzzles with me.""Stupid!" Jing Yue flicked the tip of her son's nose gently. "Don't talk too much. Quickly look at that thing!""Oh." Jing Ling nodded. "Okay, okay."In fact, Jing Yue's heart felt like it was being torn and bleeding by memories that made half of her life just wrapped up in revenge.

And on his journey, your father found a strange spear head fragment on Dragon Mountain Peak." Qu Yilin began to tell the story.Prince Han Yuze listened quietly, even though in his heart he felt something was strange."Father went to find medicine for grandmother, wasn't grandfather still the emperor at that time? Apart from the imperial physicians, didn't grandfather invite the best physicians in the country to cure grandmother's illness?" Prince Han Yuze couldn't hold back his question."Of course everything has been done and nothing has worked at all. Your grandmother's illness is not just an ordinary illness, but because someone poisoned her," Qu Yilin answered while staring at empty air

The space between his eyebrows even furrowed as he stared at Doctor Xue's thin body kneeling on the floor.Prince Han Yuze wiped the sweat flowing down his face, then nodded his head with a weak movement. "That's right, Dad. So, please let go of the healer, Dad."Prince Han Yuxuan looked at Prince Han Yuze to make sure that his words were trustworthy. There was a strong deception in the man's heart regarding Doctor Xue which he found very strange.Meanwhile, Former Emperor Han Yuwen preferred to observe his grandson's condition from a close distance and felt that there was something strange in his grandson's body.The old man who still looked very dignified then turned to Prince Han Yuxuan.

His hands are regularly in front of his stomach and his knees are slightly bent. "Greetings, Your Highness Father. Greetings, Your Highness Prince."Due to panic and anxiety, both of them were unable to respond to the greeting and only nodded their heads with worried faces. Only after a few moments to catch their breath did they both look a little better."Yilin, what about my two grandchildren? Are the

I'm in very good condition now. I'm ten times stronger than anyone else. Just tell mother that I'm fine.""I'm sorry, Prince. I don't dare. I'm just carrying out my duties. I ask the Prince not to complicate my task. And I also see that your face is a little pale, I'm worried that something bad is happening to Your Majesty's body." Doctor Xue spoke softly, and his voice seemed to be low-pitched and dignified."If you continue to refuse to be examined, then His Majesty's mother and also the Prince's family ask, how should I answer? It could be that my head is at stake instead. Doesn't the Prince feel sorry for the fate of this little healer?" Doctor Xue looked pitiful, hoping that the patient would not reject him again.Secretly, Pri
