Chapter 561: Deep Feelings of 'Stealing Emotion'!
"I dare not!"
Although Jiang Zhiwei's face stung fiercely and his heart was ablaze, when Empress Ji Ningxuan charged directly towards the spear point, he was so frightened that he immediately withdrew the spear, bowing deeply before Ji Ningxuan with a terrified expression!
Jiang Zhiwei was in fact quite rigid in his thinking. He believed that his loyalty was always to the Great Xia Royal Family, not the Ye Family Army!
So, in his heart, Empress Ji Ningxuan was the supreme authority.
Jiang Zhiwei was rigid, proud, and ruthless!
In the Tianlong Domain, if anyone else dared to slap him like that, they would have been overturned by Jiang Zhiwei's spear countless times.
But facing Ji Ningxuan, he faltered!
Because Ji Ningxuan was the Empress, representing Ji Yuchen, representing the royal family!
"Dare not? It seems you very much dare to me," Ji Ningxuan stared intently at Jiang Zhiwei. "If I see or hear you insult my man again, I will kill you!"
With Ye Fan's help, Ji Ningxuan had also broken through to Martial Emperor Level, and being the Jade Pool Saintess herself, emitted a powerful aura that instantly made the atmosphere at the scene coalesce. The paper cups and ornaments on the tables around were swept away!
"Yes!" Jiang Zhiwei, who had been infinitely arrogant just moments before, was now as meek as a kitten in front of Ji Ningxuan.
Ye Fan, protected behind Ji Ningxuan, felt a gentle affection arise within him.
This Ji Ningxuan, albeit love-struck, truly moved him!
Only… Why did the women by his side always make him feel weak?
I am clearly very strong, alright!
Hou Tianji even turned his head to the side.
Alas!
It truly was unbearable to watch! Just earlier, when Ji Ningxuan suggested Ye Fan might be her husband, Hou Tianji could pretend not to hear; but now, with Ji Ningxuan's domineering declaration, almost everyone present had heard, leaving no room for Hou Tianji to pretend otherwise.
But having reported the situation here, how would Emperor Ji Yuchen deal with Ji Ningxuan and Ye Fan?
Wang Fugui stood petrified on the spot, and Guo Li also looked somewhat embarrassed. They were very aware of the relationship between Ji Ningxuan, Yu Linglong, and Ye Fan… With both sisters-in-law present, whom should they support?
They could only keep their eyes on their nose, nose on their mouth, and mouth on their heart…
Yu Linglong, who had opened her mouth, closed it again; she had initially wanted to continue contradicting Ji Ningxuan.
But now, with Ji Ningxuan so domineeringly declaring Ye Fan as her man… This courage surpassed even her own declaration of wanting to marry Ye Fan, and was certainly no less courageous!
Moreover, the slap Ji Ningxuan gave earlier in defense of Ye Fan was truly satisfying!
Upon hearing Jiang Zhiwei insult Ye Fan, Yu Linglong also wanted to hit Jiang Zhiwei, but Ji Ningxuan acted faster.
Who was Ji Ningxuan?
The Great Xia Imperial Concubine, who was to be married next month, dared to defend Ye Fan in such a public setting, declaring that Ye Fan was her man.
With such courage and affection for Ye Fan, much of Yu Linglong's anger had already dissipated!
Yu Linglong was still thinking about how to smooth things over when Ji Ningxuan had already turned around and, bowing to Yu Linglong, said, "Sister Linglong, would you like to slap him again to vent for Brother Fan?"
What a tactful lady!
With that call of "Sister Linglong," Ji Ningxuan gave Yu Linglong perfect grounding, finding a common ground as both were defending Ye Fan, leaving Yu Linglong no reason to refuse reconciliation.
The Jade Pool Saintess, the daughter of Prime Minister Manor, not only possessed unmatched beauty but also superior intelligence—she was no fool!
"Hmph! You slapping him served as a warning! If there is a next time, it won't be too late for us to slash him together," Yu Linglong sighed helplessly in her heart, Crafting her words cleverly.
"It's said that Ji Ningxuan slapped Jiang Zhiwei and even talked about dragging him out to chop him to death... The implication is very clear, Yu Linglong at least hasn't rejected Ji Ningxuan!"
Yu Linglong gave Ye Fan a look, then sighed helplessly.
This little rascal got lucky again!
Some things can no longer be stopped, but since that's the case, might as well be generous!
But Yu Linglong was also curious, how would the relationship between Ji Ningxuan and Ye Fan be handled in the future?
But there is a huge secret unknown to anyone; today's emperor Ji Yuchen is a woman, this earth-shattering secret, Hou Tianji doesn't know, Yu Linglong doesn't know, including Prince Jin who doesn't know.
Ye Fan doesn't know either!
Nobody knows at all that when the emperor's big wedding next month takes place, it will conclude in a way that nobody can predict!
"Thank you, Sister Linglong!" Ji Ningxuan also nervously relaxed.
Although there had already been some intimate actions between Ji Ningxuan and Ye Fan, in Ji Ningxuan's heart, Yu Linglong was the legitimate one, and her interactions with Ye Fan always had a sense of "stealing."
It's like having to hide from Emperor Ji Yuchen and Yu Linglong.
Today, by proclaiming it publicly, Ji Ningxuan was also expressing her feelings to Ye Fan and openly in front of Yu Linglong.
From now on, at least there's nothing to worry about on Yu Linglong's side!
Ye Fan also relaxed, had the tension in the air finally dissipated?
"Ouch!"
Just as Ye Fan relaxed, he suddenly felt a pinch on his waist from both sides. Fingers full of resentment began to twist his skin fiercely.
"Meanie!"
The voice was nice, like deadly poison, but it really hurt on the waist.
But Ye Fan felt resigned, at least a sore waist is much better than a headache!
Ji Ningxuan had indeed passed the test with Yu Linglong!
On the central stage, Wei Hang finally finished his speech too. Everyone had been waiting to watch a good show, but ended up seeing one of their own disappear; Zono simply ran off... Jiang Zhiwei, that coward, didn't even start a fight with Ye Fan, so boring!
"Now I announce the rules for the Martial Military Exercise! The exercise is divided into three matches, today is the first match, a tournament, divided into five groups, randomly assigned, round-robin, winner gets 3 points, a draw gets no points, loss deducts 3 points, each group's first place goes to the final, top three finalists, others continue competing within their group for the top three spots..."
The grouping was quickly announced!
Although Wei Hang's men had tampered, unfortunately, many of their delegation didn't show up today, so the planned ambush had to be aborted in many instances.
The final result places Gu Changsheng, Yu Linglong, Jiang Zhiwei, Ji Ningxuan, Yu Linglong each in five separate groups.
Ye Fan scanned the participants of the Martial Military Exercise, except for a few who posed a bit of a threat, the others weren't much of a problem.
If nothing unexpected happens, the finals will be a contest among these five!
Wei Hang surely had other tactics, but obviously, Wei Hang didn't plan to use them in the tournament.
This here was just to wear down the martial strength of Yu Linglong and others; the real tactics would be in the subsequent point melee!
Gu Changsheng, seeing Ji Ningxuan there and her intimate relationship with Ye Fan, felt incredibly deflated. After exchanging a glance with Ye Fan, somewhat helplessly, he had already made up his mind to throw the match when the time came!
Everyone began preparing for their respective matches, Ji Ningxuan, holding onto Ye Fan's arm, said, "Brother Fan! If Sister Linglong and I were to compete against each other, who would you want to win?"
The life-or-death question had finally arrived!
What do you think?
