1154 His Highness Has Come
Ding Yun wore a cold smile on his lips as he mercilessly grabbed at his shoulder.
Nevertheless, he made this grab with the intention of fracturing He Tian's shoulder blade.
He simply didn't feel like teasing these plebs anymore.
In fact, Ding Yun was contemplating much in his mind.
He was a bit regretful right now, regretful that he shouldn't have come exploring the Mo Kingdom capital. If he had brought this darling back to his headquarters from the very beginning, then they wouldn't have attracted so much trouble.
He was too overconfident!
Although these hopeless soldiers weren't his match, he was afraid that getting caught up for too long would draw more enemies. At that time, it would be difficult for him to guarantee victory.
Since his Lil' Blockhead didn't know or even recognize anyone right now, that was just excellent!
Although truthfully speaking, he did not wish for her to recover her memories. Once she returned to normal, she would not be fond of him anymore. Perhaps, she would even mercilessly attack him again like that night by the creek.
Once he thought of this, his heart ached tremendously, as if it was being squeezed by something.
When a long, loud whistle came from the other end of the street, He Tian suddenly jumped up and blew a whistle in return.
Ding Yun's heart sank, realizing that the dark-skinned man's comrades were hurrying over.
In a flurry, a wisp of mystic energy started floating from his separated palms. It controlled the government soldiers' spears and reversed their directions in an instant, turning their spearheads toward He Tian.
Those government soldiers started shouting in surprise as their hands escaped their control and thrust their spearheads at He Tian.
He Tian was shocked, and he bellowed while chopping off the points of their spears, "Remain calm! Back away, back away!"
In the midst of the confusion, Ding Yun took Qiao Mu's small hand and pulled her towards the city gate in a jiffy.
With a flick of his sleeves, the pedestrians were all pushed to the ground by his mystic energy, and they all yelled in surprise as they tumbled to the ground.
He Tian brought his men in pursuit, but they were treading on those pedestrians. Hence, they quickly dodged.
Qiao Mu still did not know what had happened, and she expressionlessly turned around to glance at He Tian and the others.
"Crown Prince Consort!"
He Tian broke out in curses. He flitted over with his iron saber and berated, "Stinkin' punk, you had best stop right there! What kind of witchcraft did you use on our crown prince consort to make her not even recognize me!"
Ding Yun paid no attention and continued running while holding Qiao Mu's hand. Yet several steps later, he heard the quickly approaching sound of sleeves fluttering in the wind.
Three figures just so happened to land around them, forming a triangle that perfectly blocked Ding Yun's escape routes.
He Tian exclaimed "Your Highness" as he hurried over with his saber.
Ding Yun focused his gaze and saw that it was the trio of Crown Prince Mo, Duan Yue, and Situ Yi.
However, upon seeing Crown Prince Mo, Ding Yun was evidently stunned!
Why did he look hale and hearty?
Didn't he get poisoned by devil grass, a potent neurotoxin? In the short term, his nerves would paralyze, which would then affect his limbs and body.
He would slowly become paraplegic…
Yet right now, this man was actually completely unscathed? Ding Yun's pupils contracted as a very uncomfortable feeling glided past his heart.
Why was devil grass ineffective against this man?
Crown Prince Mo's phoenix eyes narrowed as he commanded coldly, "Give me back my darling, and then you can scram."
Ding Yun automatically grasped Qiao Mu's small hand, and he stared at them in alarm, pretending to be a complete stranger. "Who are you people? Why have you obstructed our path over and over again!"
"Let go of her." A hint of fury flashed past Crown Prince Mo's eyes as he looked at Qiao Mu, who gave no reaction at all. He was unable to hide the jealousy and hate in his heart.
