Yun Lanyi's palm was suspended in the air, unable to move at all.
She struggled twice but couldn't get free, then turned around and glared at the person behind her who dared to grab her wrist.
However, after turning around, she found that the person in front of her was so handsome. The anger in her heart disappeared for the most part, but she still spoke in a cold voice.
"Who are you?"
Li Lingge grabbed Yun Lanyi and pulled her aside.
"Who are you to dare to attack the president of the Shengyu Chamber of Commerce?"
The moment Li Lingge appeared, Yun Ji's tense mind relaxed instantly, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red in an instant.
She guessed that Yun Lan Yi would come to her once she repaired her spiritual roots, but she didn't expect that she would come so quickly.
Yun Lan Yi sneered, she raised her chin slightly and said proudly.
"I am the goddess of the Yun family. I am in charge of disciplining my own sister. Is it your turn to meddle in other people's business?"
Li Lingge frowned slightly, and his eyes moved between Yun Lanyi and Yun Ji, only then did he realize that they actually looked somewhat similar.
Unexpectedly, he was even more arrogant than Yun Lan Yi.
"If you hadn't destroyed Yun Ji's spiritual roots back then, how could you have become the goddess?"
"How dare you slander me!"
Although this was true, Yun Lan Yi naturally couldn't admit it in public.
She looked Li Lingge up and down, seemed to have thought of something, and then spoke.
"Is this the mistress you've been looking for?"
She shook her head and clicked her tongue.
"She is quite pretty."
Bang!
Li Lingge suddenly attacked, and the crisp sound of a slap echoed throughout the hall!
Yun Lanyi tilted her head, and bright red finger marks quickly appeared on her left cheek. The golden hairpin hanging from her bun swayed violently, casting messy shadows on the blue brick floor.
She stroked her burning cheek in disbelief. For ten years, ever since she became the goddess of the Yun family, no one dared to disrespect her like this.
"You're looking for death!"
A pale green divine power erupted from Yun Lanyi's entire body, and even his hair moved without wind.
But just as she raised her palm to form a seal, twelve black-armored guards immediately surrounded her.
"Protect His Majesty the Third Prince!"
Li Lingge slowly and methodically wiped his right hand, which had just hit someone, with a silk handkerchief. The dragon-patterned jade buckle on his wrist emitted a cold luster as he moved.
"Goddess of the Yun Family, I think it's time to change people."
Yun Ji staggered and held onto the agarwood table. She looked at the tall figure standing in front of her, and suddenly a sour feeling rose in her throat.
When her spiritual roots were destroyed and she was lying in the mud, she had also imagined that someone would protect her like this.
The originally noisy hall seemed to have lost all the sound at this moment, even the dancing flames in the glass lamps were frozen.
The crowd of onlookers retreated like a tide, forming a vacuum zone around Yun Lanyi and Li Lingge.
"Your Highness Third?!"
Someone in the crowd cried out first, and the cry was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up a thousand waves.
The knees of the few people who were originally squeezed in the front row went weak, and they fell to the ground, their foreheads hitting the bluestone floor heavily.
"I've seen the Third Prince before and he definitely didn't look like this. Did I make a mistake?"
"You haven't heard yet that the Third Prince possessed the body of an alchemist from the Purple Sky Divine Realm. It's this person."
"I heard that the person who possessed the Third Prince's body was able to refine top-grade divine elixirs."
A fat man in brocade clothes took out a handkerchief and kept wiping his sweat. His legs were shaking like sieves, and his companion beside him was even more pale.
On the corridor on the second floor, the round fans in the hands of several young ladies from aristocratic families fell to the ground.
The girl in the goose yellow skirt covered her mouth with her hands and her eyes widened.
"This Third Prince is very handsome."
"Three, Your Highness?"
Yun Lanyi's pupils suddenly shrank. Hearing the guard's voice, she finally recognized the jade pendant with Chi pattern, a variant of the five-clawed dragon pattern that was only used by the royal family's direct descendants.
Her face turned from red to white, and then from white to blue.
She could clearly feel that the eyes that had once flattered her were now moving back and forth between her and the Third Prince with suspicion and speculation.
Those gazes seemed to have substance, like countless sharp knives, peeling off bit by bit the image of the goddess she had carefully maintained.
Li Lingge suddenly took a step closer, and the scent of ambergris blew past Yun Lanyi's nose.
"What you did back then was a big deal. Do you really think no one knows?"
Yun Lanyi's face turned pale, and her fingernails stained with Impatiens flowers dug deep into her palms.
"Your Highness, are you trying to interfere in the affairs of my Yun family?"
Even if the person in front of her is the third prince of the Tiansheng Dynasty, she is not afraid. She is the goddess of the Yun family, and the royal family has no right to interfere.
She suddenly turned her head to look at Yun Ji, her red lips curled up in a sarcastic arc.
"I thought he was some powerful backer, but it turns out he used this skin to get close to the Third Prince."
Bang!
The second slap was even harder than the previous one. Blood oozed from the corner of Yun Lanyi's lips, and half of her carefully drawn eyebrows were wiped off by the palm wind.
Li Lingge shook his hands, and the black-armored guards all took half a step forward, with the tips of their guns almost touching Yun Lanyi's clothes.
"roll."
The hall suddenly became silent.
The look Yun Lanyi gave Yun Ji was like a silver needle dipped in poison.
She blamed Yun Ji for all the humiliation Li Lingge had inflicted on her.
"Okay, very good. If you have the guts, then never return to the Yun family!"
…
Midnight.
The flame dancing on the gilded candlestick suddenly became three points lower, Yun Ji's delicate body rose and fell, and she almost fell into an unconscious state.
The Holy Yin Spirit Root was emitting extremely pure Yin power, which slowly flowed into Li Lingge's meridians like a trickle of water.
