Those who accused and slandered her included not only the nobles outside, but also her father and Garrett.
Especially Garret, as the crown prince, he always regards himself as the next king. He attaches great importance to the honor of the royal family and himself, and any black spot can make him displeased.
A few years ago, when Garrett had not yet left Golden Feather City, whenever he heard people talking about Blanche from outside, he would go to Moon Shadow Palace and scold Blanche after returning to Golden Feather Palace.
Although there was no physical violence, the mental torture was still painful.
Hearing about what happened to Blanche, he felt very sad. Rumors can kill people.
Fortunately, she is a girl with strong psychological endurance. If she were a girl with weak stress resistance, even if she did not commit suicide, she would be driven into depression or even crazy.
If the princess went crazy, it would be even more embarrassing for Bruno and Garrett. In order to maintain the dignity of the royal family, they might even kill her and then tell others that she died of illness.
Of course, this is just Ronin's imagination. Bruno would not do such a thing.
"I understand why you acted so scared just now."
Luo Ning held the other person's hand tightly, "Don't worry, no one will bully you when you are with me."
Originally, Blanche was in a depressed mood and tears were welling up in her eyes when she talked about her sad past, but after hearing Roning's words, she couldn't help but burst into tears of joy.
"Well, I believe you!"
She wiped away her tears and said, "I feel that Garrett has violent tendencies. You must be extra careful when fighting him later. If you really can't stand it, call a halt in time."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
When Luo Ning agreed to the competition, he wanted to give face to his brother-in-law and let go of the pressure and lose.
However, after hearing about what happened to Blanche, he changed his mind - he did not seek to win, but he would not let the other party win easily either.
Although it was a private discussion, this matter would definitely be known to the outside world.
If Roning defeated Garrett in one fell swoop, it would break the myth of "the Crown Prince is the best in the world" that has lasted for many years and would be a slap in the face of the royal family.
What's more, there is no stakes in this private competition. Not only will he not gain any benefits by winning, but it may also bring him a lot of trouble.
Being defeated is the best outcome.
In the huge parade ground, some knights were training at this moment. They were the personal guard knight team of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"German!" Garrett called out.
All the knights in training stopped and one of them, a tall and strong knight, ran over quickly.
He looked ordinary, but there was a long, hideous scar on his face, which was left when he was injured by Garrett many years ago during a sparring match with him.
"Your Highness, what do you want me to do?" German said respectfully.
Garrett held out his hand: "Lend me your sword."
Although German was puzzled because he saw the sword guard Moody following behind the crown prince was holding the crown prince's sword, he handed the sword over without any hesitation.
"Your sword is pretty good. It cost you a lot of gold coins, right?"
Geman nodded and said, "This was forged by the Heiyu family. Although it is not an enchanted supernatural weapon, its strength is very high. I spent most of my life savings to buy it!"
"Um!"
Garrett nodded and looked in the direction he came from, and saw Roning and Blanche talking intimately.
"He looks like a lecherous person."
In his heart, he looked down on Roning. Even if such a person had strength, he could still be controlled as long as he was given a beautiful woman.
When Ronin approached, Garrett threw German's sword to him and said, "A knight should always carry his sword wherever he goes. If you are attacked with nothing in your hands, you will definitely be at a disadvantage."
Luo Ning took the sword. Its weight was about the same as the Liuyan Sword. Although its quality was not as good, it should not be low either.
"The Crown Prince is right. I will keep your teachings in mind in the future!"
Luo Ning smiled and said, he would never say that he had a space ring.
"Okay, everyone disperse!"
Garrett walked to one end of the training ground and said, "German, you say start later."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Geman couldn't help but licking his lips. Ever since the crown prince was promoted to Silver Moon, he almost stopped sparring with others. He didn't expect to have the honor of meeting him today.
Although he didn't know Roning, he could probably guess something from Blanche. He also wanted to know what kind of strength this young man, who was said to have more talent than the Crown Prince, had.
"Hey, if it's a fake, he will be in trouble today." German thought to himself.
Roning signaled Blanche to step back, and asked German and others to take care of the situation to avoid being affected by the aftermath.
In response to this request, Germann complied.
After all, she is Her Royal Highness the Princess, and she is about to get married. It would not be good if she got hurt.
Soon, Roning and Garrett stood on both sides of the training ground, about four to five hundred meters apart.
Geman picked up a stone and shouted, "The stone falls to the ground, and the fight begins!"
As he spoke, he threw the stone high into the air.
Everyone stared at the stone.
The knights were excited, as they really wanted to see the crown prince beating his opponents. Although the scene was bloody and violent, it was very shocking.
In contrast, Blanche clasped her hands together and prayed silently.
Bang! The stone thrown high up fell to the ground, making a crisp sound that everyone heard.
Hiss! Almost the next second after the stone fell to the ground, Garrett's whole body flashed with lightning. His body activity was stimulated at this moment. The whole person seemed to have turned into a purple lightning across the battlefield and rushed towards Roning.
There is no defense in Garrett's dictionary. His fighting style is to attack and take the initiative.
"A fighting skill with thunder attribute that enhances speed?"
In almost one second, the two of them crossed a distance of four or five hundred meters and met in the center of the training ground.
"Hey, that's not slow!"
Garrett laughed and slashed at Ronin with his sword. The thunder on the sword seemed to devour everything around it.
A sharp gleam flashed in Roning's eyes. He did not choose to take the attack head-on, but twisted his body and cleverly avoided Garrett's thunder sword.
With a loud bang, thunder struck the ground, and deep scars appeared on the earth.
Luo Ning waved the sword in his hand, and a sharp sword light streaked through the air like a meteor, going straight for the opponent's throat.
Garrett's face changed slightly. He didn't expect that Roning was not only as fast as himself, but also had such superb body movements and swordsmanship.
He quickly adjusted his posture, with the tip of his sword pointing upward, colliding with Roning's sword.
"bite!"
The sound of metal clashing echoed in the training grounds. The swords of both men did not weaken, but became more fierce. They fought back and forth, swords flashing, and every clash seemed to tear the air apart.
The knights watching the fight were stunned. They all thought that Ronin would be defeated quickly, but they didn't expect that the opponent would take the attack and fight back.
German's eyes widened even more. It had been a long time since he had seen anyone who could compete with His Highness Garrett in swordsmanship.
Blanche clenched her hands and looked at the two people in the field nervously. No matter whether Roning won or lost, she just hoped that he would not get hurt.
"Very good, you have successfully aroused my fighting spirit!"
The close combat that lasted for a long time was ineffective. Garrett used the force to retreat, with the tip of his sword pointing directly at Ronin, with dark purple lightning condensed on it.
"Thunder Flash!"
Luo Ning changed his moves at the same time, compressing the flame energy on the sword to the extreme, and then bursting out.
"Fire Flash!"
The two sixth-level fighting skills collided in the air, and the earth shook instantly. The huge momentum was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.
"careful!"
Germann was filled with fighting spirit. He stood in front of Blanche and blocked the strong wind.
Sizzle
The power of thunder swallowed up all the flashes of fire, and then rushed towards Roning with the remaining power.
"Without the amplification of the Flowing Flame Sword, the power of Fire Flash will be smaller."
He casually swung out a flaming slash to absorb the remaining force coming at him.
Whoosh! Garrett took advantage of this slight advantage and charged back.
Luo Ning originally wanted to fight back forcefully, but when he received the attack, he held back a bit of his strength.
In this collision, the huge recoil force knocked Roning back rapidly, and he seemed to be at a disadvantage.
"Ha ha!"
Garrett smiled a winner. He took advantage of the moment when Ronin was suppressed and rushed forward with his huge sword, rushing left and right, trying to defeat Ronin completely.
But although the latter was at a disadvantage, he was able to barely block every move, which left Garrett, who was in an advantageous position, with no possibility of ending the fight.
The more this happened, the stronger the anger and resentment in Garrett's heart became.
"Thunderstorm!"
In an instant, the area within a ten-meter radius around him was engulfed in thunder.
The purple electric arcs were extremely violent and lashed the ground, creating huge holes in the ground, the edges of which showed signs of being scorched.
Luo Ning looked solemn. He swung his sword and a huge fire snake flew out, wrapping around his body and resisting the invasion of thunder.
The crackling, roaring thunder and exploding flames brought an unprecedented visual feast. No one expected that the battle would last to this extent.
Bang! The powerful thunder finally blasted the flame snake apart, and with its remaining power it struck Roning's battle armor.
Just when the Dou Qi armor was hit and dissipated, Roning had already dodged the range of the thunderstorm.
He patted a pierced sleeve and said with a smile: "Your Highness, your attack is very strong. You win this battle."
Garrett, who wanted to continue rushing forward, stopped abruptly and suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.
This kind of discomfort is like when you are peeing freely and suddenly you are startled and have to stop abruptly.
"You're scared just because a piece of your sleeve was shot through?"
Luo Ning nodded firmly: "The fact that a piece of the sleeve was shot through is enough to explain the problem."
Garrett looked at Roning deeply, with some displeasure in his eyes, but he still nodded, then turned and left.
Did he win?
He did have the upper hand, but it was too early to say he had won.
Moreover, he could feel that Roning had not exerted his full strength, at least his secret technique had not been used.
Although he also mastered the secret technique, if he used it, he would have a more comprehensive view of Ronin's true level.
But now the other party has voluntarily admitted defeat. If he continues to fight, it will be reported that he bullied his brother-in-law who has voluntarily surrendered, which will have a bad impact on his image.
After all, Roning was not a subordinate knight who was sparring with him.
"This battle was not without gain."
Garrett looked back at Ronin who was returning the long sword to Geman, "This guy is definitely not a Meteor Peak Knight, but a real Silver Moon Knight!" (End of this chapter)
