Chapter 520 - The Four Kingdoms’ Emperors Who Were Scared Off of Their Pants III

Ziyan lowered her head and remained in silence.

Feng Ruqing continued, “If you are willing to give the very best of you to him… why don’t you go to my Liu Yun Kingdom and accompany your father and your brother? Then I’ll let go of Qing Yuan.”

Ziyan looked disgusted. To accompany those two persons in the Liu Yun Kingdom… did not that mean she would be one of the captives too?

If Qing Yuan’s level was demoted, she could easily find a new person to replace him with her beauty. However, if she were to become captive, she would lose all of her freedom for the rest of her life.

“You’re so deeply in love with him as you’re willing to starve and not leaving him behind. Why are you reluctant to do such a small matter?” Feng Ruqing smiled and slowly turned around. “Mother, now I can see it’s all your courtier’s wishful thinking. I can see that Princess Ziyan… doesn’t really love him.

“Qing Yuan could let go of the status and be demoted for her, but Ziyan… is not willing to give up on her freedom.”

“I…” Ziyan panicked and turned to look at Qing Yuan. She noticed the doubt in his eyes, and her heart suddenly jolted. “I’m not…”

“Mother!” Feng Ruqing stopped Ziyan with her cold and deep voice. “We still have a lot of things to deal with, and we must not waste too much of our time on such insignificant people. They should just go away.

“Oh, by the way…” Feng Ruqing paused as she swung her hands. Then, a spirit herb fell into her hand. “The Grade-4 Spirit-Serene Grass. You will be downgraded by a huge tier after taking it. Since you’re an Advanced Spirit Warrior now, a huge tier is just enough to drop you back to Advanced True Warrior tier. Take it before you get out from here.”

Qing Yuan stretched out his trembling hand to receive the spirit herb from Feng Ruqing. He swallowed it without any hesitation.

His breath turned weak as soon as he swallowed the spirit herbs. In a blink of an eye, he fell back to True Warrior tier.

“Manor Master, Manor Lady…” Qing Yuan closed his eyes in agony and slowly opened it again. “Your servant… bids farewell.”

He turned away resolutely and headed in another direction.

He was not regretful in choosing Ziyan. However, he was still passionate about Fengyun Manor from the bottom of his heart.

Ziyan looked at Qing Yuan, dumbfoundedly.

He swallowed it. He had really swallowed it…

Why?

Ziyan’s whole face turned pale. However, she knew it well that it was not the time to fall out with Qing Yuan. She hurried a few steps to catch up with him.

“Qing’er, what you’ve given him wasn’t Spirit-Serene Grass.” Nalan Yan smiled bitterly as she shook her head and sighed.

The corners of Feng Ruqing’s lips were gently lifted. “Indeed. After all, he is still your subject in the past, and since he is really faithful to Fengyun Manor, I’m just giving him a warning. Three months are enough to change everything.”

His ability would stay in Advanced True Warrior tier for three months as he could not absorb any spiritual qi at the moment.

However, everything would be restored after three months.

In fact, generally, in people’s viewpoint, True Warrior tier was already a powerhouse, but Ziyan did not think so.

Three months of demotion. If he still could not recognize her true color, then he… was really foolish and hopeless.

Nalan Yan felt a warmth inside her heart because eventually, her daughter still showed mercy to him.

‘Let’s hope that after this time, Qing Yuan would never disappoint them again…’

“There’s still one thing, Mother.” Feng Ruqing’s eyes sank a little. “No matter how regretful Qing Yuan would be in the future, he is not fit to stay in Fengyun Manor anymore. Just in case his stupidity brings harm to Fengyun Manor in the future.”
