Exiled to the Frontier, He Became the Empire’s Most Powerful Lord - Chapter 31

Zhou Lingfeng’s hands twitched in anger, and a murderous intent appeared on his lips.

Soon, a delicate shout came from behind: “Trying to kill the prince? Dream on!”

Mo Li’s figure disappeared from the spot and reappeared in front of this third-grade grandmaster. Her snow-white hands clenched into pink fists and struck the other party’s fingers.

Zhou Lingfeng’s face was filled with anger, his true energy reversed, and his hands were already on Mo Li’s body.

With a soft sound, one of the third-grade grandmaster’s fingers broke off, and he was thrown several meters away.

“Such pure true essence!”

The third-grade grandmaster took a deep breath and looked at Mo Li with great apprehension.

This girl looked no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, yet her strength was in no way inferior to his!

How is that possible?

Even Ning Qingxue, the most monstrous saintess of the Haoran Sword Sect, only reached the third-grade Grandmaster realm at the age of fifteen.

And in this Great Zhou Dynasty, how many Ning Qingxues are there?

The third-grade Grandmaster suppressed his shock and could only keep his distance to engage in a fierce battle with Mo Li.

He simply couldn’t have guessed that Mo Li, whose meridians had been opened, was also cultivating the Iron Family’s Health Preservation Technique.

Although he was only a fifth-rank martial artist, he was able to borrow Zhou Lingfeng’s power because they were from the same clan and shared the same origin.

Although he was somewhat panicked, he dared not retreat immediately!

Because the Liu family had reached an agreement with him, and even if the Liu family succeeded, the credit would be attributed to them.

Zhou Lingfeng sat in a wheelchair, his body covered in blood, looking somewhat ferocious!

From a distance, the handsome young man sitting in a wheelchair seemed utterly helpless, a scene of desolation and heartbreak.

Qiu Tang lay beside him, but her eyes were closed forever.

Even with the temptation of thousands of taels of silver, she hesitated at the last moment before administering the poison, unwilling to betray that kindness.

The rain had begun to intensify, washing away the bloodstains on the stone slabs.

“I have finally repaid my benefactor’s kindness with my life.”

Several girls still stood back to back, defiant.

Her hair was disheveled, and her skirt was soaked with blood.

Zhou Lingfeng’s throat tightened. The woman who had been trembling in the dungeon just a few days ago now had light in her eyes.

I don’t blame you!

Zhou Lingfeng said calmly.

Qiu Tang did not betray her original intention; she died entirely because of herself.

This matter could only be kept in his heart, yet it would be remembered for a lifetime.

His eyes were wet, whether from rain or tears, it was hard to tell.

In the center of the grand stage, Hong Ling hadn’t left at all!

Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Zhou Lingfeng, as if she was very puzzled!

What kind of personal charm does Zhou Lingfeng possess that makes those defenseless women rush headlong into the fire, even sacrificing their lives?

At that moment, the man in the wheelchair was standing at the very front!

Judging from the current situation, assassinating the barbarian king seems to be the most promising option!

Now that he is all alone, if another powerful warrior were to appear, the Barbarian King would be doomed.

Should I make a move?

“Maybe I’ve been completely exposed?”

Hongling’s pretty face showed a troubled expression!

She has her own mission to fulfill, and getting involved would likely cause her considerable trouble in the future.

Although she only had a brief encounter with His Highness the Barbarian King, everything that happened around her touched her heart.

“Haha, Your Highness, it seems you have no one left to rely on!”

At this moment, the head of the Liu family swaggered in with more than a dozen martial artists.

“You’re celebrating a little too soon!”

Zhou Lingfeng said calmly.

At this moment, a team arranged by the Military and Political Affairs Department has slowly arrived.

The injured girls were sent for treatment immediately.

“His Highness the Barbarian King is meticulous and his plans are flawless! He is truly remarkable! If I, Fang, had not come today, we would surely have won a great victory!”

A clear voice suddenly appeared, and then a middle-aged scholar-like man appeared three meters in front of Zhou Lingfeng.

“Fang Xuance!”

Hongling’s expression suddenly changed drastically.

She naturally recognized this person; he was a guest retainer of the Lin family of Fu Ning.

He is a martial arts master at the peak of the third rank, and his cultivation level is already infinitely close to that of a second-rank expert.

Among the common people, he was known as the number one person below the second rank.

Unexpectedly, the Lin family of Fu Ning was so determined to kill Zhou Lingfeng that they even dispatched such skilled fighters.

Especially Fang Xuance, known as a cunning strategist with flawless plans, who is highly valued by the Lin family. And such a person is someone Hongling cannot contend with.

The Barbarian King’s fate is sealed today. Even if another army arrives, it will be a certain death for him.

Fang Xuance could kill a person in just one minute. Let alone a crippled man like the Barbarian King.

Hongling sighed softly and quietly disappeared.

If she were to stay any longer, Fang Xuance might even kill her to silence her, which would be a pointless sacrifice! It would be better for her to preserve her life and record the truth about the Barbarian King’s death.

Perhaps in the future, the royal family of the Great Zhou will seek revenge for him and issue a warrant for Fang Xuance’s arrest!

Although the chances were extremely slim, Hongling still felt sympathy for Zhou Lingfeng. This was the only thing she could do for him.

“Fang Xuance, the strategist of Heaven’s Will! I never expected the Lin family of Fu Ning to actually think so highly of me!”

Zhou Lingfeng sneered.

Before coming to Mang Province, he had roughly investigated the situation of the Lin family in Funing!

Fang Xuanze is the most powerful force on the surface, so it is not difficult to investigate him.

It is said that many of the plans of the Lin family in Fu Ning were devised by Fang Xuance, making him their chief strategist.

“Your Highness is the only prince in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty who was born into the family of the Empress! It is no exaggeration to value you as much as possible!”

Fang Xuance smiled slightly; he didn’t seem like a malicious person at all.

“Killing me won’t be that easy!”

Zhou Lingfeng continued coldly.

Today, he has completely lost heart.

I just want to kill them all without mercy!

“Is that so? Then I’ll make a bet with Your Highness! Let’s see if anyone dares to stand in Your Highness’s way within three steps!”

Fang Xuance said jokingly.

He enjoys torturing people, especially the helpless fear and struggle before death, which makes him feel happy.

The grief and indignation of Zhou Lingfeng, a prince of such noble status, before his death made him secretly pleased.

“step!”

“Two steps!”

With each step Fang Xuance took, he felt his martial spirit becoming increasingly solid.

He believed that his martial arts level would definitely improve if he killed Zhou Lingfeng.

However, just as he took his third step, he was shocked to find that there was suddenly someone in front of Zhou Lingfeng.

A maid with exquisite and beautiful features.

He was looking at him with indifferent eyes and said, word by word, “Take one more step forward, and you’ll die!”

This person was not Mo Li, but Qiu Tian.

Mo Li is no match for him, and Zhou Lingfeng won’t let her take any risks!

Fang Xuance was so angry that he laughed. How dare a mere maid speak to him in such a tone!

Did she think she was Ning Qingxue, the Holy Maiden of the Haoran Sword Sect?

“I never imagined Your Highness the Barbarian King would have such a loyal maid! It’s just a pity you’re about to pass away. Your Highness, please forgive me! Let me send you off as a pair of star-crossed lovers, so you won’t be lonely on your journey to the underworld!”

Fang Xuance laughed loudly, and suddenly a huge phantom tiger appeared behind him.

At the peak of the third rank, approaching the level of a second-rank grandmaster, one can already simulate a martial arts dharma form, pushing one’s combat power to its peak.

Although he appeared disdainful, Fang Xuance was not at all complacent!

They went all out from the start, giving their opponent no chance to escape.
