Prince, Not Tonight

Everyone was scared stiff like a wooden chicken. Even Yun Fei's hand shook violently.

Looking at the four stone lions, it seemed that there was blood at the corners of their mouths.

"Who's number two? His Majesty and the Southern King are waiting. " The smile on his face was still gentle. He glanced at them, and they all backed away, afraid that she would look at them.

Yun Fei also took a step back along with the crowd. Since she was number ten, it wouldn't be his turn in a short period of time.

Ah Cai walked up to Number Two. He was also a beautiful girl. He looked at her and shook his head. "I didn't expect Xiao Shi to have such a good meal today. The meat is so tender."

It was as if she wasn't talking about a living person, but rather a vegetable market.

Number Two was scared stiff, but before he fell to the ground, he was dragged into the hall by two guards.

Ah Wu gave her one last look and looked back: the rest of the people were almost scared to death, their legs and stomachs were trembling, and their faces were frighteningly white.

"I'm going to see the lion cub," he said. However, as he passed Cloudfall, Ah Wu stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her carefully.

Yun Fei's heartbeat slowed to a beat, and when Ah Wu appeared, she had already recognized her.

Although he had changed his appearance, but with Ah Wu's eyesight – if he was recognized – at most, he would scatter in two with a slap …

Xu Sisi?" As a result, the name Ah Wu immediately shattered Yun Fei's determination to burn to death.

After all this time, he had been imagining things …

However, he didn't expect her to know Sisi.

Xu Sisi had originally been hiding behind the cloud. Now that she had been called by name, she could only endure the pain and walk out. She lowered her head, appearing very embarrassed.

"Miss Amari."

Ah Wu smiled with interest, as if he was talking to her or talking to himself.

"I wonder if His Majesty will show mercy to you …"

Then she turned and walked away, not looking at the clouds.

Yun Xu let out a long breath. Then, he felt his heart palpitating — she pulled Xu Sisi up. She had originally wanted to return her wish, but who would've thought that this banquet would actually be a dead end.

If they were also dragged out to be fed to the lions later, then Xu Sisi's life would be owed by her.

Thinking of this, Yun Yang felt very guilty.

Xu Sisi, however, seemed to have understood her thoughts as she gently walked to her side and held her hand. Her pair of watery eyes gently stuck on Cloudmist's face as she gently said, "Regardless of the outcome, I really have to thank you. As long as I can stand here and take a look at this palace, I'll be willing to die even if I have to."

Hearing such a gentle voice, Yun Fei felt even more guilty towards her. She sighed and asked, "Are you really here to see Ye Jia? He is not a good person! "

Just by looking at the person who was dragged to feed the lion just now, one could tell how tyrannical and unpredictable the Night Cara was.

Xu Sisi lowered her eyes and did not say anything, but there was no hesitation in her eyes.

Yun Fei did not want to say anything.

The second person had already been dragged out. Following which, a roar of a lion could be heard.

Then, the third.

The fourth.

With every person that entered, the rest of the people in the square became silent. This kind of silence was not just about being silent, it was also a feeling of being suppressed by a pile of fear.

The four stone lions were getting more and more ferocious as though they were about to pounce on him.

Yun Xu knew, but Xu Sisi was also afraid.

However, as the number approached, she stood up straighter and straighter. Amongst the large group of crooked people, the elegant Xu Sisi was like a dancing daffodil. She was so elegant that others looked up to her.

Yun Xu silently wiped his sweat.

After the nine lion roars ended, it was finally their turn.

The guards had already made their preparations, intending to drag them in just like the previous few. Unexpectedly, the two girls actually cooperated with each other. Xu Sisi walked in front while Yun Fei followed behind, very proactively stepping into the brightly lit and seemingly hellish Great Heaven Hall.

Haotian, Haotian, they were naturally extremely huge.

He had clearly prepared himself mentally, but the moment he stepped into the great hall, he felt a slight tremor.

It was really big.

There was a hall that was large enough to accommodate several hundred people on the floor. The ceiling was half curved like the sky, and was filled with luminous pearls.

On the left and right of the hall, there were two neat rows of tables and chairs.

Judging from their attire and attire, it was likely that all the nobles of the Night Dynasty were gathered here.

And above the great hall, on about fifteen steps high from the ground, sat Ye Jia, who was dressed in dark colored clothes, and also the purple-robed Nan Siyue.

When Cloudstep saw Ye Jia and thought of the tragedy at the fishing village, the hatred in his heart immediately grew like spring grass. She could barely control her gaze, so she lowered her head in a hurry.

Fortunately, Ye Jia didn't pay attention to her.

The first thing she saw was Xu Sisi. To be more precise, she saw Xu Sisi's eyes.

When everyone entered the hall, they lowered their heads and looked around. Only Xu Sisi stared straight at him with this kind of gaze. Her gaze was clear, without a shimmer or fear.

Interesting.

"What do you want to perform? A few people had lost. Those who fail will be punished. " Ye Jia's playfulness was somewhat aroused by Xu Sisi, but her interested gaze merely lingered on her for a moment.

In the next moment, he moved away.

He moved away without emotion or recollection.

Xu Sisi's body shook violently, shaking even more violently than when she had heard a lion's roar.

Yun Xu saw her sorrowful and depressing gaze again, and his heart silently wiped away his sweat: "Ai, it doesn't matter if I meet a lover, but this husband of mine is too heartless!" He doesn't even remember you when you came to see him with so much effort, even when you were risking your life!

"Performing acting." Hearing Ye Jia's question, Yun Fei took a deep breath, calmly raised his head and said in a clear voice.

As a blind person, not many people knew about it.

At this moment, he was sitting on the high throne, dressed in a purple robe that reflected his unique fair skin, looking as beautiful as a god's beauty and majesty. Besides his identity, this kind of beauty made people not dare to look directly at him, so who would notice that his glass-like eyes condensed their own shadows?

That was why dancing and juggling were just bullshit.

As for playing the zither and composing, since Nan Si Yue was a master amongst masters, how could she appreciate the skills of those girls?

Those women died in vain.

However, regardless of whether it was worth it or not, or whether it was on purpose or not, he was afraid that those people would die because of him.

When word got out and people started talking about it, everyone would say, "The Southern King is temperamental and recklessly slaughters people."

It was just like what she had heard before, a rumor about the Southern King.

Ye Jia, pat your butt, use his innocent face to deceive the world.

— Cough cough, back to the main topic.

Abandoning the finale of the dance and changing it to a eloquent act was also due to the consideration of many objective factors, which were appropriate to local conditions.

Her program had changed abruptly. Xu Sisi also looked at her for some unknown reason. She lowered her voice and instructed softly, "You can just play a few quick moves later and cooperate with me."

Ye Jia, on the other hand, was full of interest, as he played with the cup of water in his hand, muttering to himself, "Oral skills? "What exactly is it?"

"The location was a small fishing village. Then, there was a catastrophe." Yun Xu answered respectfully.

Nan Siyue had been lounging back in her chair, oblivious to what was happening on the field, but when he heard the sound of the clouds, he quietly sat up and leaned over the field.

The dull expression immediately became vivid. Although the corner of his mouth was not raised, but if there was a hint of a smile yet to be found slowly sneaked out.

Yun Xu began his performance.

She had cheated herself since she was young, changing her appearance and voice, this was the most basic of martial arts.

Furthermore, she had lived in the fishing village for so long.

In the empty Clear Sky Hall, the sound of rolling waves soon rang out. Closing his eyes, he seemed to be able to see the white waves of the sea.

The world was so quiet.

Nan Si Yue did not need to close his eyes. He had never been able to see it, so the scene created by the cloud appeared clearly and completely in his mind.

He still remembered the feeling he had that day when he was standing in the sea.

The setting sun shone on his body, warming him and gradually disappearing.

He raised his hand to grasp but failed to grasp anything.

A small fishing village quietly stood by the ancient sea, like a sculpture from ancient times. As the sun rose, the village gradually became filled with human voices and dogs began to bark.

There was a child who was acting coquettishly towards his mother at the village entrance.

Vaguely, he could see the smoke of the morning cooking. Rough and simple fishermen were shoving fish food into their mouths as they greeted each other and set out to sea.

The scene was very noisy. The cloud had appeared out of nowhere to produce a bamboo tube that had been split open, imitating the sound of the wind and the clashing of pots and pans.

Then the adults went out to sea, leaving the women and children, and the fishing village was quiet again.

The sound of the waves gradually grew louder.
