Chapter 10: Ambushed and Killed
Lin Yi did not refute, nor did he need to refute. He just looked at the current Chen Shuangshuang and couldn't help but think of two years ago.
At the age of eighteen, Lin Yi married Chen Shuangshuang in accordance with the emperor's will.
At that time, Chen Shuang had just broken through the air boundary and became the youngest elder of Tianxuan Sect. She was stunningly beautiful, a true heavenly proud daughter. Such a woman is not someone an ordinary man can subdue, even becoming the future empress would not be unexpected.
Unfortunately, the Emperor Xuan Yuan issued a decree at that time, betrothing Chen Shuang to the waste prince Lin Yi. What hidden reasons were behind this, outsiders did not know, but from then on, Lin Yi became a stain and burden on Chen Shuang's body, also becoming a thorn in the eye of the Chen family.
On the day of the grand wedding, that Emperor Xuan Yuan did not forget to send an old eunuch with a hundred gold bars. The Chen family could only smile wryly and accept it, even if they were unwilling in their hearts, they did not dare disobey the imperial decree, so they had to hold the wedding ceremony.
The wedding was very simple, Lin Yi's parents would not attend naturally, and there was only an old man sitting on the high hall, while Chen's family just sent a completely unrelated old steward, both parties were disdainful!
This wedding can be said to be known to all, with a great reputation, but it has become a huge joke.
Chen Shuangshuang, such a proud person, would not lower her head to marry Lin Yi, so she used the excuse of physical discomfort and had a fat and ugly maid named Xiaoyu take her place in the wedding ceremony with Lin Yi.
What a shameful thing to have a substitute marriage!
Lin Yi could only endure it, and with this ugly servant girl, they went through the miserable ritual of bowing to heaven and earth, then to each other as husband and wife.
Lin Yi, was just a puppet, controlled by the sacred decree of Xuan Yuan Emperor, otherwise he would rather go out and beg for food than suffer such humiliation in the Chen family!
In the bridal chamber, Lin Yi actually saw Chen Shuangshuang.
Chen Shuangshuang wore a white dress, with beauty like an immortal fairy, but she was not someone Lin Yi could touch. She only had one sentence to say: "Lin Yi, since you married into my Chen family, you are no longer a prince and cannot practice martial arts for the rest of your life. You're just a useless person. Although we have the name of husband and wife, it should be clear that you don't even qualify as my husband. In the future, my Chen family will support you, feeding and clothing you for the rest of your life, but if you dare to speak recklessly about me in front of outsiders, I'll kill you with one sword!"
Lin Yi was so scared that he almost peed his pants, and could only respond with a humble "yes" to whatever Chen Shuangshuang said. With his status at the time, he had never expected Chen Shuangshuang to take him seriously anyway, despite being husband and wife in name, they were actually from two different worlds!
For Lin Yi, whether or not he marries Chen Shuangshuang, his status in the Chen family is equally humble, and even more so, making the Chen family people resentful.
Chen Shuang left after saying this and didn't see her for two years.
Now, Lin Yi stood calmly in front of Chen Shuangshuang, no longer the resigned waste prince.
For Chen Shuangshuang, this marriage is a stain, and for Lin Yi, isn't it also a shame!
Forced into a marriage! An absurd substitute marriage! The humiliation of the wedding night! For men, these are all tramples on dignity. Lin Yi used to be able to bear it, but now he can't bear it anymore. One day, he will openly and honorably take this proud and cold woman as his wife into the Lin family!
Then go out and have some rest!
Chen Shuangshuang, however, was unaware of Lin Yi's thoughts at this moment. Her eyes were still as calm as water, seeming to stare out the window and yet also seeming to stare at Lin Yi. "I went to see the princess today," she said. "The princess said that if my strength becomes a bit stronger, I will have the qualifications to meet with His Majesty and request that he abolish this marriage arrangement. Then I will no longer be entangled in this matter!"
"Oh!" Lin Yi replied faintly with a single word, then asked: "Is this letting me off?"
Chen Shuang's eyes turned cold, and a hint of anger flashed through them. "It was me, let it go!"
You dare to humiliate me? In the great Ming Empire, few women have the qualifications to do so. This brings shame to men, and it's not just a little!
Lin Yi smiled slightly, saying nothing, her face expressionless, but in her heart she was coldly laughing. It turned out that this woman had always wanted to divorce him, to avenge the grievances she had suffered!
Indeed, this is a good way to turn over a new leaf!
Get rid of a prince! Although it is a deposed prince, it can still allow Chen Shuangshuang to clear her previous shame and even gain the reputation of being daring and fearless. Lin Yi will become a laughing stock from then on, abandoned and humiliated, and it's already a miracle that he can show his face in public!
"Hmph, Frosty sister, it's best to get rid of this trash quickly!" Chen Shan also clenched his fist and said, "Our Chen family has lost face for eight years, all because of this trash!"
Lin Yi seemed to have not heard it at all, and didn't care in the slightest. Instead, he turned his head and started admiring the scenery outside.
The horse carriage rattled and soon left the imperial capital, heading for the distant Tianxuan Mountain a hundred miles away!
No more words on this road!
As he passed through a thicket of woods, Lin Yi's calm eyes suddenly turned cold and alert, sensing a hint of murderous intent rapidly closing in!
Not just a thread, but a blanket covering the sky!
Someone is going to intercept them!
Chen Shuang felt a chill run down her spine, her face sinking slightly, as if frozen in ice!
"Whoosh, whoosh......" Countless arrows instantly surrounded the horse carriage, and the coachman quickly hid inside. These arrow showers were shot from below by the tribe, probably enough to turn the carriage into a beehive.
Chen Shuangshuang didn't move, but the aura around her suddenly changed, and a fierce killing intent burst out. The invisible fluctuations crushed the spiritual energy in space, causing those arrows to be firmly frozen in mid-air!
What a move! Lin Yi was slightly startled, and with this move, he knew that Chen Shang was nothing but trash in front of Chen Shuangshuang. The gap was too big, this was the insurmountable gap between the Refining Realm and the Qi Realm!
The next moment, those arrows had turned into dust under Chen Shuang's true energy and were extinguished!
Chen Shan obviously hadn't experienced any life-or-death situations before, and was so scared that his face turned deathly pale. He shouted loudly again and again, almost thinking he was going to die!
Lin Yi, however, remained calm and unchanged, gazing quietly out of the window.
Who is strong and who is weak, can be seen at a glance!
"Aren't you afraid?" Chen Shuangshuang found Lin Yi's appearance somewhat strange.
Afraid? Lin Yi had unknowingly wandered through life and death countless times in his past lives. This little trick couldn't even enter his eyes!
"Not a genius martial artist? I'm afraid of nothing!" Lin Yi laughed and said.
Chen Shuangshuang slightly furrowed her brow, it turned out that because of her own protection, the waste was pretending to be here, well, let them taste the bitterness!
The next wave of fierce arrows came again, this time with more numbers and stronger power, like an arrow array!
However, it still can't break through Chen Xiang's True Qi defense!
Chen Shuang's jade finger moved, and a true energy shot out, quickly spreading around the carriage. Those arrows were so fast, with such strong killing power, yet they were still trapped in mid-air, and then destroyed!
The atmosphere is too strong!
There was only one arrow that broke through the defense and quickly approached the carriage, and in this direction, it happened to be facing Lin Yi's side, a single shot!
This woman is really clever!
Lin Yi's nature is clear and easy to understand, this is Chen Shuangshuang's intentional omission of an arrow, just to make Lin Yi look good, isn't it not being afraid? Isn't it as calm as water? I see how you can dodge!
This arrow is aimed at Lin Yi's right shoulder, of course it won't be fatal, but it will definitely severely injure his right arm!
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi remained calm, his mental strength was incredibly strong, and when the arrow entered within a ten-meter range of him, he had already locked onto it firmly!
Chen Shuangshuang shook her head, as if she had already seen Lin Yi's downfall, thinking that it was time to teach such an arrogant person a lesson!
The arrow's power easily pierced through the wooden board of the carriage, just as it was about to shoot into Lin Yi's shoulder, but it could no longer advance even half an inch!
One palm grasped the arrow tightly, unyieldingly, like a pair of iron pincers!
Lin Yi's body didn't move at all, only his right hand tightly grasped the arrow shaft, as if everything was under his control!
"Looking for death!" Lin Yi's anger surged, and with a swift palm, he sent the arrow flying back to its original path. A blood-curdling scream was heard, and from the tree above, a killer fell down, with the bloody arrow lodged in his neck.
Chen Shuang was shocked, she found that from start to finish, Lin Yi's gaze had not moved at all. Could it be that he could sense the approach of danger and even accurately counterattack the arrow just by feeling?
This ability seems a bit terrifying!
