Chapter 560: Find a Piece of Bean Curd to Smack Against My Head to Death
Now every time the fifth princess was with Ling Chuxi, she would be on alert and pay the greatest attention for fear that a moment of carelessness would turn her into a pig’s head again. However, when it came down to it, she was really defenseless and was almost oversensitive in her mind. This master of hers was also another one. If Ling Chuxi insisted on poisoning her, then fine, but why was it always her face that was being poisoned? Could she not be poisoned on other parts of her body as well?
“Mirror. Xia Zhuoyi, give me a mirror, quick,” barked the fifth princess at Xia Zhuoyi. She became more fearful the more she thought about the possibility of her being poisoned.
“There’s nothing wrong with my face. Isn’t this fine?” Seeing her cute and pretty face in the mirror staring back at her, the fifth princess’ heart landed back onto solid ground, but even in her delight and confusion, she asked just to make sure.
“I am telling you that you haven’t cleaned your face properly. There is still some eye dirt on it,” said Ling Chuxi nonchalantly.
“Master, you are toying with me,” harrumphed the fifth princess with a sob. Facing the mirror vainly for half a day, she only felt that her own reflection was so beautiful that even she herself was moved. Where did whatever eye dirt come from?
“Look at the level of your IQ. You spend all day making mountains out of molehills. It really makes one worry,” said Ling Chuxi, not without worry.
The fifth princess really wished to find a piece of bean curd to smack against her own head to death. ‘What am I making mountains out of molehills about? If it were not for you always appearing and disappearing randomly, poisoning my face whenever you like, would I become so oversensitive like this?’ thought the fifth princess angrily to herself.
“Zhuoyi, take good care of her,” said Ling Chuxi to Xia Zhuoyi. She kept getting the feeling that the journey to Ding Lin Country would be full of hidden dangers and could not quite feel rest assured in her safe passage there.
“Don’t worry, Chuxi,” said Xia Zhuoyi with a smile. After half a year of tempering, this stubborn and determined young man was much calmer and more stable than he was before. His cultivation had also reached Battle Qi Level 9 by now.
“Chuxi, be careful on the road,” said Ling Yichen succinctly. He had thousands of words and instructions of caution he wanted to say to her, but in the end he only said these few words softly.
“You too,” said Ling Chuxi gently with a smile.
“Miss Ling, can we depart already?” asked a middle-aged man in a loud and deep voice. His body was tall and big and he was obviously a little annoyed.
This man’s name was Zhou Zhidong. He was sent by the emperor to protect Mo Kongyuan and Ling Chuxi. The emperor also knew that the journey to Ding Lin Country this time would be riddled in hidden dangers, and therefore specially sent a troop of guards to escort the both of them under the banner of an envoy. Though the total number of guards in this troop was less than thirty, each one was an expert who had the experience of hundreds of battles and were absolutely loyal-till-death warriors.
Naturally, the emperor also knew that with Mo Kongyuan around, there was no need to be too worried about safety matters. However, with these extra guards around, there were now a few additional helping hands and a lot of trouble could be reduced along the way as such. They could not let a dignified guardian take action for every little thing on his own.
Zhou Zhidong’s cultivation had already reached the Great Fulfilment Intermediate stage and he was originally a general by the borders in charge of a large number of soldiers. He had been guarding the Northwest frontier for the longest time and was one of Nan Xia Country’s generals who was so famous, he was well known amongst the neighboring countries as well. For this however, he had been summoned overnight by the emperor to return to the capital. Originally, he had thought something big had happened in the capital and rushed back throughout the night only to find out that he had been summoned to protect Ling Chuxi and another sloppy old man who looked like a nouveau riche on their journey to Ding Lin Country. His heart more or less contained some displeasure at this.
With his identity, position and cultivation, he was actually sent to be the bodyguard of an immature little brat. What was the emperor thinking? Even if this little brat managed to become the champion in the vassal countries’ great assessment competition in one fell swoop based on luck, there was no need to for such great pomp, right?
To an iron blood general, dying on a battlefield was where they best belonged. Becoming a guard for a little brat? It was nothing but humiliation to them. However, the emperor’s orders were hard to disobey, so he could only swallow his reluctance forcefully and obey.
