"Gong Jun? What kind of random nobody is this?"
Qin Hao curled his lip. Could just anyone be compared to him, the Imperial Son of the Qin Family?
Calling me ugly? Qin Hao chuckled softly. If looks and background were both graded out of a hundred, Qin Hao felt his status as the Imperial Son of the Qin Family would only score a ninety-nine. After all, he wasn't the only Imperial Son of an Ancient Desolate Family in this world; his status wasn't the absolute most precious.
But when it came to his looks, Qin Hao confidently gave himself a perfect score. What a joke! Without some serious charm, how could he trigger the romantic tribulations of countless beauties in the future?
Seeing her idol being slandered by Qin Hao, Xia Lingxi immediately jumped up to defend him:
"You're the random nobody! Big Brother Gong Jun is the number one genius of my Great Cang Nation. He's not even a hundred years old this year, yet he has already reached the Nascent Soul realm! Plus, he is incredibly handsome. He is universally recognized as one of the Four Great Handsome Men of the Great Cang Nation!"
Pausing for a moment, Xia Lingxi continued to press Qin Hao:
"He wouldn't be like you, wearing a mask all day long, too afraid to show his face to anyone. Tell me, do you wear a mask because you're just too ugly?"
Finishing her sentence, Xia Lingxi lunged forward while she thought Qin Hao wasn't paying attention, aiming straight for the mask on his face.
If Qin Hao wasn't willing, how could Xia Lingxi possibly snatch the mask off his face? With just a slight shift of his body, Qin Hao dodged her sneak attack, causing the grasping Xia Lingxi to fall hard onto the ground.
"Didn't I tell you? Don't jump up just to hit my knees!"
As he spoke, Qin Hao lifted Xia Lingxi up by her clothes, as if picking up a little baby chick.
"Quickly let me go! Put me down, you jerk!"
Dangling in Qin Hao's grip, Xia Lingxi refused to behave. She swung her delicate little fists, wanting to teach Qin Hao a lesson.
Seeing this, Qin Hao directly sealed Xia Lingxi's cultivation base, then tossed her into the air like a rubber ball.
"Ah—! I was wrong, please let me go."
Seeing Qin Hao act like this, the unruly little princess finally knew fear and repeatedly begged for mercy.
Qin Hao ignored her. He immediately soared into the sky, heading toward the place where Xia Lingxi claimed her Crown Prince brother had fought the assassins. As for Xia Lingxi, she was tied up with a rope and dragged along behind him.
"Bastard! How dare you humiliate this Princess like this! I won't let you get away with this!!!"
Along the way, Xia Lingxi kept threatening Qin Hao. However, Qin Hao didn't buy it at all. Still daring to talk tough? Just stay put and behave.
Seeing that her threats had no effect whatsoever, Xia Lingxi finally softened her tone:
"Have mercy on me, please? I'm a girl, how can you bear to treat me like this?"
Qin Hao curled his lip: "You're a girl, and I'm a boy. What's the big deal?"
Choked by Qin Hao's retort, Xia Lingxi was momentarily speechless. Finally, she gave up resisting and let herself be dangled by the rope, flying behind Qin Hao like a mere pendant.
Upon arriving at the location where Xia Lingxi said she had encountered the assassins, Qin Hao took a brief look and frowned slightly:
"Are you sure this is where you were assassinated, and then your Crown Prince brother led his men in a desperate fight while hiding you in a cave?"
Xia Lingxi nodded: "Yes, why?"
Qin Hao shook his head speechlessly: "Look around. Are there any signs of a struggle here? Not a single tree has fallen. In a battle between Nascent Soul realm cultivators, would any flora within a hundred miles survive?"
As he spoke, Qin Hao used his Dual Pupils to control Xia Lingxi's spirit, and then activated his Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart to read her memories.
After viewing Xia Lingxi's memories, the corner of Qin Hao's mouth couldn't help but twitch. He reached out and flicked Xia Lingxi hard on the forehead.
Xia Lingxi clutched her head, tears swirling in her eyes from the pain:
"Why do you always flick my head? If you keep flicking, you're going to make me stupid!"
Qin Hao rolled his eyes dramatically:
"Do I even need to flick you for you to be stupid? You're the kind of idiot who would help count the money after being sold! Was this an assassination? This was clearly the Crown Prince trying to get rid of you!"
Qin Hao's words struck Xia Lingxi like a bolt of lightning. She shook her head repeatedly:
"Impossible! Bullshit! My Crown Prince brother treats me the best! If he wanted to get rid of me, why didn't he kill me? Why would he hide me in a cave instead?"
Qin Hao shrugged: "I'm not him, so how should I know? But judging from the scenes in your memory, those black-clad assassins held back at every turn when fighting the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince didn't use his full strength either. They were clearly putting on a show."
"Maybe he wanted to direct and act out an assassination plot to eliminate you. As for why you're still alive, perhaps some unexpected accident occurred midway, forcing them to abort their plan."
At this point, Qin Hao turned his head to look at Xia Lingxi: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. We'll return to the Imperial Capital of the Great Cang Nation right now. You just need to see if your Crown Prince brother is doing perfectly fine, and then you'll know."
Xia Lingxi nodded. Whether it was to call for reinforcements or uncover the truth, she needed to make a trip back to the Imperial Capital.
Seeing this little fool agree, Qin Hao grabbed her hand, preparing to activate his jade pendant to teleport himself and Xia Lingxi to the Great Cang Imperial Capital.
However, Xia Lingxi instantly yanked her hand back:
"Men and women should not touch! Don't get any inappropriate ideas about me. Being a temporary Dao Companion was just a forced move; asking you for help was the only option I had at the time. Don't go getting any thoughts you shouldn't have!"
"Besides, I already have someone I like. Big Brother Gong Jun's place in my heart cannot be shaken by anyone."
Qin Hao's mouth twitched. She was totally a love-struck fool. Pfft, inappropriate ideas? Although Xia Lingxi was cute, she looked like a little brat. Hell would freeze over before Qin Hao felt anything for her.
Fine, since she wouldn't let him hold her hand, he wouldn't. He grabbed Xia Lingxi by the collar from behind, lifting her up like a puppy, and then activated the jade pendant, teleporting the two of them back to the Great Cang Imperial Capital.
In the blink of an eye, the two arrived at the Great Cang Imperial Capital. Looking down at the familiar architecture below, Xia Lingxi was completely stunned.
"This, we're here already?" Xia Lingxi's face was written with astonishment and bewilderment. It was too fast! The distance from the Demonic Beast Forest to the Great Cang Imperial Capital spanned more than half of the Great Cang Nation.
An ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator pushing a flying Dharma treasure to its limits would need two or three days. Even her Imperial Father, a mighty expert at the Tribulation Transcendence realm, would take half an hour to return from the Demonic Beast Forest to the Imperial Capital.
But just now, her vision merely blurred, the surrounding scenery rapidly retreated and distorted, and in the blink of an eye, they had arrived in the sky above the Imperial Capital.
This speed... was simply inconceivable! It was unheard of.
"Making a fuss over nothing." Qin Hao said in a flat tone as he put his jade pendant away. What a joke! It was a Dharma treasure personally forged by an Immortal Emperor; how could it not be fast?
The more nonchalant Qin Hao acted at this moment, the more shocked Xia Lingxi became. She stared at Qin Hao with a face full of curiosity. Just what was the background of this rented Dao Companion she had casually picked up?
Such terrifying speed, yet he actually called it making a fuss over nothing!
