Chapter 28 Slap in the Face

  Zhi Bei, however, seemed to have fallen into a strange state of mind, and was completely unaware of what was happening around him.

  It wasn't until sunset that he suddenly woke up with a start, and the day had passed just like that.

  Zi Bei rubbed his head, and as he thought back, he found that his mind was a complete blank. It seemed like he had just closed his eyes for a moment, but the whole day was gone.

  "Mother, I'm leaving, I'll come back to see you next time." Qi Bei said softly in front of the portrait on the tombstone, only feeling that the mother in the portrait made him feel more intimate, just like his soul had been accompanying this body from beginning to end, continuing the bloodline of this body.

  He walked out of the cemetery with a steady pace, and the lingering sunset stretched his shadow very long.

  The western suburbs of the imperial capital have a very good environment, with green hills and clear waters, birds singing and flowers fragrant.

  At sunset, many young nobles went out for a spring outing, and Qi Bei's lonely figure was particularly eye-catching.

  "Five little."

  "Five less, good."

  ……

  ……

  Some young nobles from better families greeted Qi Bei one after another, after all, in the imperial capital's noble circle, there were not many people who did not know Qi Bei.

  He nodded slightly in response, ignoring the invitations of some noble sons, he didn't want to go back to that kind of decadent life as a noble.

  His soul was once muddy and unclear, but now he has dreams and pursuits, which will be the foundation for him to stand in this world.

  "Qī Běi, over here!" Just then, Qī Běi heard a clear and pleasant calling voice.

  Qī Běi looked back and saw that not far away, by a small river, a group of young nobles dressed in magnificent clothes were surrounding Mingyue Princess and the sisters Fēng Ruò Yún and Fēng Ruò Yǔ, with Fēng Ruò Yǔ being the one who was excitedly waving at him.

  Zi Bei originally just wanted to wave goodbye and leave, but he saw that Princess Ming Yue's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, clearly not wanting to see him.

  Zhi Bei suddenly changed his mind, he smiled slightly and walked towards them.

  "Little girl, you're getting too big for your britches! Yesterday you were still calling me good brother, today you're addressing me directly?" Qi Bei came in front of Feng Ruoyu and flicked her nose.

  "I hate it." Feng Ruoyu opened Qi Bei's hand and stomped her small foot in a spoiled manner.

  The intimacy between the two made the coldness in Mingyue Princess's eyes even thicker, and a hint of unease also flashed through Feng Ruoyun's heart.

  "Sister-in-law, you look really beautiful today." Qi Bei smiled and said to Feng Ruoyun.

  "Thank you." Feng Ruoyun calmly accepted Qi Bei's praise and title in front of everyone, causing some noble young men who still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts to look not too good.

  In the upper echelons of Jin Ye Huang Chao, Feng Ruoyun's reputation was not inferior to that of Princess Mingyue. It is said that in the balance of power against the Goths in the south, Feng Ruoyun was one of the behind-the-scenes strategists.

  Nature has many admirers.

  At this time, Qi Bei's gaze intersected with Ming Yue Gong Zhu's gaze, carrying an almost imperceptible aggressiveness. However, Ming Yue Gong Zhu remained indifferent from start to finish, as if looking at a stranger.

  However, in Princess Mingyue's heart, a hint of surprise flashed through.

  Previously, Qi Bei's gaze towards her was filled with infatuated love and an unmistakable, repulsive desire.

  But now, Qi Bei's eyes were clear and transparent, with only one point that still made her feel a bit uncomfortable.

  "Ah, it's been a long time since I've seen you, Ming Yue." Qi Bei flashed a bright smile, his expression very clean and pure, which attracted the attention of some other noble girls.

  "Yes, I still owe you a thank you." Princess Mingyue said lightly, with an obvious tone of perfunctoriness. To say that Qibei had returned from the Wraith Mountains, she, the one whose life was saved by Qibei, should have been the first to come and thank him. If it weren't for this chance encounter, she probably wouldn't have had the intention of going to see him on her own initiative.

  "We're two in one, sharing joys and sorrows together. What's the point of saying these polite words?" Qi Bei smiled and took two steps forward, only a step away from Princess Mingyue, and could smell the faint fragrance on her body like orchids.

  The bright moon princess's slender eyebrows were slightly furrowed, but she didn't back down. Her beautiful eyes stared calmly at Qi Bei.

  "Woof......" Just then, a small white dog that had been running around nearby suddenly let out an angry bark, and a weak bolt of lightning struck Qi Bei.

  Qī Běi's sword eyebrow rose, and he took a step forward, his body brushing against Ming Yuè Gōng Zhǔ's delicate figure as he moved behind her, dodging the lightning bolt. At the same time, his large hand brazenly wrapped around her slender waist, causing their posture to become ambiguous.

  Mingyue Princess was a magician, and at such a short distance, she couldn't keep up with Qi Bei's rhythm. Although she had defensive magical objects on her body, Qi Bei just wrapped his arms around her waist, which couldn't be considered an attack.

  "Let go!" Princess Mingyue growled, her beautiful eyes gathering anger, making her normally calm demeanor suddenly turn fierce.

  He saw the good and immediately let go, taking a step back, but in his heart, he was somewhat regretful. The dragon seal on his palm had not reacted earlier, which meant that Princess Yue was not an extreme yin body. However, her soft waist, when touched, left a lingering aftertaste.

  At this time, the unicorn calf, like a small dog, rushed out fiercely and glared at it with both eyes.

  For some reason, the unicorn calf suddenly became a brake and jumped into Princess Mingyue's arms with a frightened cry.

  The Moon Princess was astonished in her heart, the unicorn was a seventh-tier demon beast, although Xiao Bai was only in its juvenile phase, but even if it faced adult demon beasts of the fourth or fifth tier, it would absolutely not be afraid, how could it be scared like this just by being glared at by Qi Bei? He must have secretly done something.

  "The renowned Nuo De family's young master is nothing but a hoodlum, what a thousand-year-old aristocratic family, all just empty fame." Just then, a handsome young man wearing a light blue water-elemental robe walked out, sneering at Qi Bei.

  Qī Bě swept a glance at the young man, and from the style of his magic robe, as well as the guild emblem embroidered on it, he could determine that this young man was a member of the Holy Anan Alliance.

  Zi Bei laughed and asked: "May I ask the honorable magician's surname?"

  "I am..."

  "Slap"

  The young man was about to proudly introduce his noble identity, but who knew that as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhi Bei slapped him in the face with a lightning-fast slap.

  Five crimson fingerprints suddenly appeared on the young man's pale and handsome face, paired with his stunned expression, which was indeed very eye-catching.

  "After some thought, I'm not even interested in knowing who you are. You insult the Nuo De family and just sending you a pot sticker is already being lenient to you. Next time you act arrogant, don't forget whose territory you're standing on." Qi Bei said calmly and turned to leave.

  The young man came to his senses, a handsome face flushed bright red, anger causing his rationality to gradually collapse. He raised the magic wand in his hand, and dense water system magic elements began to condense in the air.

  "Your Highness, think carefully, his older brother is also my sister's husband, the one known as Nord's fierce tiger, has a temper that is a hundred times more violent than his, and often cripples people." At this time, Feng Ruoyu's little maid spoke with good intentions, her big lake-green eyes wide open.

  The young man's mouth was stuck on the magic spell, and he couldn't go any further. Nord Tiger's name had also been heard of, one of the three great leaders of the Black Armor Army, known throughout the world. It is said that the ruler of the Mu Yu country in the Holy Ana Alliance, who had just ascended to the throne, was crippled by him in his left leg.

  "Zi Bei, you'd better apologize." Just when everyone thought the matter was over, Princess Ming Yue suddenly spoke up.
