Chapter 885: Chapter 37: Blind Dog Eyes
Dugu Xiu charged forward, his movement swift beyond compare, leaving the Crown Princeās Iron Blood Guards, who were just about to leave, utterly bewildered.
What was going on? Didnāt the Crown Prince say to ignore Lord Qingās affairs?
Yet with a turn, it was the Crown Prince himself who struck first.
What made Dugu Xiuās expression change in an instant was the woman who rushed out from the Heavenly Pavilion.
She was none other than Donghuang Lingling, who had always been by Yun Shengās side.
Wherever Yun Sheng was, Donghuang Lingling would be there as well.
Fifteen minutes ago, when Qing Meng saw the two women in bamboo hats enter the Heavenly Pavilion with a beauty from the Sky Fox Clan, he immediately ordered to block the entrance and led a few Martial Artists inside to capture them.
"Tsk, they thought I couldnāt catch them just because they hid in the Heavenly Pavilion? Hehe, tonight Iām going to achieve three goals with one action," Qing Meng charged in angrily with a few guards.
As soon as he entered, he grabbed a waiter, questioning the whereabouts of the women who had entered earlier.
Upon seeing the notorious Qing Meng, the waiter dared not hide anything, tremblingly pointing to a compartment at the far end of the second floor.
Armed with the information, Qing Meng led the guards to kick open the compartment door.
Inside the compartment sat two women.
Qing Meng didnāt have time to ponder why three people entered but only two women were inside.
But upon getting a closer look at the two women, his mouth split into a wide grin.
My goodness, he thought he could only grab a little beauty, but now there were two absolute beauties in the room.
The one on the left had willow eyebrows, cinnabar eyes, exquisite features, and a graceful figure exuding nobility.
The one on the right was the unparalleled beauty from the Sky Fox Clan he saw at the auction.
Her skin was flawless and her black hair cascaded like a waterfall. Compared to her timid and helpless demeanor at the auction, she now appeared livelier, her black eyes seemed to speak.
Both women were shocked to see someone suddenly break in.
"Hahaha, tonight surely is my lucky night, Iāll take both these beauties," Qing Meng rushed forward, eager to savor their beauty.
"How dare you, insolent man, do you know who we are? This here is Prince Duguās Crown Princess Consort," the willow-eyebrowed beauty scolded angrily.
"Tsk, little beauty, thatās quite the tall tale. Do you know who I am? Iām the brother-in-law of Prince Dugu. You claim to be from the Crown Prince Mansion? Thatās a huge joke! Women from the Crown Prince Mansion and the future Crown Princess Consort wonāt be out here, exposed and sold at an auction," Qing Meng laughed heartily.
"Outrageous, since youāre Qing Qiangās brother, you should recognize me, the Princess," the "Sky Fox Clan beauty" said coldly with an aloof expression.
Her demeanor, as if a snow rose in bloom, was unearthly beautiful, further enticing Qing Meng.
"My lovely, you dare address my sister by name. If youāre the Crown Princess Consort, then Iām Prince Dugu! No need to wait any longer, tonight Iāll make you mine," Qing Meng said and pounced at Yun Sheng like a hungry wolf.
Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling exchanged a look, a sly gleam flickering in their eyes.
Yun Sheng used the Night Charm Step Technique to deftly dodge Qing Meng, screaming loudly as she did.
Coordination from Donghuang Lingling followed, pulling out a newly bought whip, lashing at the Martial Artists while running outside the Heavenly Pavilion.
Their commotion soon alarmed everyone in the building.
Earlier, when the trio left the Beidou Martial Arts Academy, they noticed someone tailing them.
Now, being mere defenseless women, confronting those skilled men head-on would surely end badly.
A thought struck Yun Sheng as she spotted the Heavenly Pavilion ahead.
She had previously calculated that Lady Chi Bi would be waiting in the Heavenly Pavilion, so she planned to use Chi Biās hand to suppress Qing Meng.
That was Yun Shengās plan, but she never expected Dugu Xiu to intervene at the last moment.
The commotion inside drew the attention of Lady Chi Bi, who was also sitting in a compartment in the Heavenly Pavilion.
She sent someone to investigate and learned it was Qing Meng causing trouble, initially deciding to ignore it.
Unexpectedly, she heard a familiar cry for help.
Lady Chi Biās expression changed abruptly as she rose urgently.
"Sister Chi Bi, whatās wrong?" Hu Linglong asked with curiosity.
"You head back first; Iāll contact you another day. That damned Qing Meng, picking on her of all people," Lady Chi Bi said, visibly irritated.
She had gotten carried away chatting with Hu Linglong, forgetting that Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling were exceptionally rare beauties, and who knew how they ended up encountering such a vile character as Qing Meng.
Lady Chi Bi hurried out the door.
By this time, Donghuang Lingling had reached the entrance of the Heavenly Pavilion, intending to create an even bigger commotion.
She couldnāt believe that if she made a scene on the street, it wouldnāt get Lady Chi Biās attention.
Just as she cried out for help, a whirlwind-like figure arrived.
All Donghuang Lingling saw was a flash of red hair passing by.
The intruderās presence was overwhelming, their movements like the wind, and there werenāt many in all of Hou Qin with such skill.
Dugu Xiu?
Finally realizing it, Donghuang Linglingās face broke into a smile, the hot blood in her body boiling with excitement.
Perfect, with Dugu Xiuās arrival and Yun Shengās "impromptu performance", that Qing Meng is either dead or crippled.
The two Martial Artists guarding the door hadnāt seen the intruderās face clearly yet and were swearing, "You bastard, didnāt you see Lord Qing here, how dare you barge in?"
"Blind fools, take a good look at who I am," Dugu Xiu, thinking about how Qing Meng dared to harass his woman, felt a surge of anger.
Dammit, that reckless Qing Meng. That woman, I dare not lay a single finger on, and if you dare touch her, wherever you do, Iāll cut it off.
The two Martial Artists, hearing this voice like a demonic roar from hell, and seeing Dugu Xiuās grim, ghostly face, couldnāt help but have their knees tremble.
They recalled what the two women earlier said. Could it be so wickedly true, that the woman Qing Meng fancied was really Prince Duguās Crown Princess Consort?
"Get lost," Dugu Xiu unleashed a torrent of fighting spirit like a fierce tiger descending the mountain. The two Martial Arts Sect level fighters couldnāt muster any resistance and were knocked flying backward, smashing to the ground, instantly turning into piles of flesh.
Below, screams rang out. Just stepping out of the compartment, Lady Chi Bi trembled upon hearing the roaring, thunderous voice.
She felt a chill down her spine, seeing Dugu Xiu charging upstairs with a malicious aura.
"Prince..." Lady Chi Bi tried to explain.
But confronting Dugu Xiuās cold glare, her words were swallowed back.
