It must be said that the leader was indeed a veteran of countless battles.
With just this one sentence, they thought they had restricted Chen Zhou's subsequent actions.
However, Chen Zhou is not afraid of the South or the North; his biggest obstacle now is Jiang Ying.
“They didn’t force me; I did it voluntarily,” Jiang Ying said coldly.
Looking at Jiang Ying's fair and pretty face, Chen Zhou was somewhat lost in thought.
"So your wish is for me to leave right now?" For some reason, Chen Zhou suddenly felt a sharp pain in a certain part of his body. He hadn't felt any pain when he fell to the ground twice before, but now that he felt this pain, he even had the urge to escape from here immediately.
“Yes, you shouldn’t be here. The South is not your home.” Jiang Ying said slowly. Hearing Jiang Ying’s words, Chen Zhou immediately fell silent. As soon as Chen Zhou fell silent, the entire street fell silent. No one could hear what the two were saying, but for some reason, everyone shut their mouths, and the whole street became quiet.
As the street grew quiet, Chen Zhou released his hand from the carriage and straightened up. Jiang Ying immediately raised her head and continued to look into Chen Zhou's eyes.
Jiang Ying had lost count of how many days it had been, and how long it had been since she had last seen Chen Zhou. She couldn't count anymore; it seemed like it hadn't been more than three months. In those three months, a lot seemed to have happened. Not only had trade between the South and the North become more frequent, but even the royal family of the North was urging them to set a wedding date.
Her own father, the Seeking Truth Emperor of the Southern Kingdom, couldn't withstand the pressure from the Northern Kingdom and had no choice but to agree to the marriage, until she received this news a few days ago. At that moment, how she wished someone would immediately come and take her away! But she couldn't do that.
This is undoubtedly selfish. Many people have told me about the benefits of marrying into the Northern Kingdom, saying that it would not only protect the Southern Kingdom but also accelerate its development and allow its common people to live a better life.
Although Jiang Ying doesn't have any grand ambitions and never fantasizes about her life, she has always hoped to marry someone she loves. However, even this simple wish is now extremely difficult to fulfill.
Besides, this is her only wish.
However, she now has to make this sacrifice; she is to marry and move to the far north, to live there, and to marry someone she doesn't love.
Jiang Ying thought it over carefully. Giving up her own happiness in exchange for the happiness of the entire Southern Kingdom might be a good deal.
Therefore, Jiang Ying has no regrets about anything she has said to Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou kept backing away, step by step, until he finally fell off the dilapidated carriage and landed on the ground. Chen Zhou staggered backward, unable to believe that Jiang Ying would say such a thing.
"I don't believe it... I don't believe it... I don't believe it!!" Suddenly, Chen Zhou roared like a madman, his fists pounding the ground like a meteor shower, venting his inner emotions.
Chen Zhou couldn't quite explain his emotions. To put it bluntly, Chen Zhou and Jiang Ying were just junior brothers and sisters, so what was there for Chen Zhou to be sad about?
Just as Chen Zhou's emotions reached their peak, the entire space suddenly became extremely distorted, and everyone's gaze towards Chen Zhou changed.
"Look, look! What's that...?"
"What exactly is that?!"
"Is that a devil!?"
"I never imagined that beggar was actually a devil!"
Everyone was stunned and looked at Chen Zhou in shock! Their eyes were filled with astonishment as they stared at him! The sky suddenly darkened, and the clouds above seemed to be distorted, with Chen Zhou's entire body shrouded in layers of darkness.
The dark aura caused everyone to involuntarily retreat. The guards from before were now sitting on the ground, moving backward in fear!
"It's a ghost! That person is a ghost!"
"Look! There's a huge demon behind that person!"
Chen Zhou knelt on the ground in agony, his whole body shrouded in darkness. A huge shadow appeared behind him; it was a massive demon.
Everyone who sees it will be terrified!
Because they had never seen anything like it before!
This thing instilled in them endless fear.
"I'm going to kill all of you..."
A dark voice came from the shadow behind Chen Zhou, sending chills down the spines of everyone who heard it, and they all quickly retreated!
The situation has now completely reversed. Just a moment ago, everyone wanted to get closer to the carriage to hear what the two were saying, but now they are frantically moving away from the carriage, afraid that the ghostly figure will catch them, because the ghostly figure is now looking at the carriage.
At that moment, the carriage was the closest.
The lead carriage carried Princess Jiang Ying, while the carriages behind it carried the daughters of famous young ladies from the Southern Kingdom. They rushed out in fear, now unaware that these rarely seen young ladies were before them. However, they had no time for appreciation; their only wish was to escape! To flee!
Chen Zhou felt as if he had fallen into an endless abyss, enveloped by boundless darkness. He couldn't describe the feeling; he only felt an endless chill and even a silent pain.
