For a beast, their hearing was superb and that's how Zhang Qianqian could clearly heard the soft chuckle. Her anger flared up instantly as she screeched. "What are you laughing at?! Do you know who I am?! You want to offend the Zhangs? Do you want to come by yourself or do you want me to force you?!"
Zhang Qianqian snapped her finger, and instantly, the dozen of black guards turned half-beasts, their claws and fangs showing menacingly.
Noooo! Over! It's over! Ling Xiaochen facepalmed as she felt her back drenched in cold sweat. Even her face paled considerably. She didn't dare to glance back at all.
She had tried her best to warn that bitch Zhang Qianqian ah! It was totally the other side's fault that didn't believe in her! Her words were treated like farts, okay?
Whatever! She would not care anymore!
You are asking for a beating yourself, bitch!
Ling Xiaochen's frozen figure and her paled face was caught clearly by Zhang Qianqian. Her confidence grew immensely.
Haha, even Ling Xiaochen was afraid and couldn't protect you now! She beamed beautifully, yet her eyes shone with a insane glint.
"I order you to crawl your way here! Don't think that you can escape with Ling Xiaochen's here! My family is linked with the royal family, and the princess of the Beast Mainland, Ouyang Xueqing, is my acquaintance!"
Silence ensued.
Ouyang Xueqing blinked in bewilderment. What? I am her acquaintance? Hello, I haven't even met you until today, so how am I acquainted with you?
Zhang Qianqian was so satisfied to see the two girls frozen in fear! The princess' power was truly terrifying ah! Who didn't fear the princess? Even Ling Xiaochen herself definitely didn't dare to insult her now as she had the princess' name backing her!
Ouyang Xueqing frowned confusedly: "Are you sure that you're acquainted with the princess?"
Zhang Qianqian who was doubted gritted her teeth in rage. How dare she question me! Who did she think she was?!
"You don't believe me? Fine!" Zhang Qianqian thought that she wasn't wrong. Her family has been working as the Imperial Family's servant and she had once seen the princess from afar. The dead man tell no tales. If she could kill this little impudent one, then no one could exposed her lie!
She totally didn't consider Ling Xiaochen as someone that liked to meddle in another's affair. Furthermore, if the little one landed on her hand and she had branded her with a servant mark, even Ling Xiaochen couldn't do anything to her!
"I will let you taste the Zhang's family might!"
Zhang Qianqian snarled as one of the guards in black dashed forward to grab Ouyang Xueqing by her neck.
The speed was too fast that Ling Xiaochen could only catch a blurry figure and blasting wind passing through her.
She shouted alarmly: "Watch out!"
Well, who did she think Ouyang Xueqing was? She was someone that was born with the bad luck! She was immune to mere threats and small danger like this.
Compared to the speed of a deranged beast, the black guard was merely a child play ah!
Ouyang Xueqing stepped back with a light step when the guard's hand was merely an inch from her neck. The guard was clearly stunned that such a small girl could evade his attack. In the moment of confusion, Ouyang Xueqing quietly stuck a talisman onto the guard's figure and muttered under her breath: "Burn."
The blue fire blasted, illuminating the originally dark alley. The burned guards howled in pain as his body trembled violently and turned to dust within a mere second. The wind gale was so strong that Ouyang Xueqing's mask snapped and slid down her face. The countenance that was so beautiful it could make people dumbstruck was exposed.
It was only for a mere millisecond, yet everyone in the alley had a clear look of that face and those different color eyes that shone brilliantly.
Zhang Qianqian and her guards was frozen in place when they saw one of the elite guard in the Zhang family turned to dust in a few seconds. And when they saw the face of the girl with flower mask, they felt like the ground was sinking beneath their feet.
Especially Zhang Qianqian. When she saw Ouyang Xueqing's face, her mind whirled as she felt a buzzing voice in her mind.
How…how could it be? Why did the little shrimp's face look exactly the same as the Princess?
She was struck with terror and dread as she recalled their conversation just now. Their fearless manner, Ling Xiaochen's pale face, the little shrimp's strength…
By the time that Zhang Qianqian snapped back to her senses, she found that the alley was suddenly filled with people. Fireball was lit alongside the road, totally brighten the dark and giving people the clear view of what transpired in there.
That cold and clear face was currently standing in front of her, sneering mockingly.
If Zhang Qianqian had wanted to treat everything as a mere coincidence then, she was now filled with panic and fear as she fell on her knees when she saw that small figure.
What…what had she done?
Her lips trembled hard as she stuttered: "P—Princess…"
The crowd was discussing intensely with a hushed voice, trying to discern the situation. The abrupt appearance of the princess in a seemingly heated argument with the lady of the Zhang family had confused them.
In addition, they were unable to form any conclusion when they saw the guards of the Zhang family that had lost their initial vigor and now kneeling before the princess.
"What happened here?"
"I don't know. We all ran here when we heard someone screaming. But where? I don't see anyone injured."
"Is the lady of the Zhang family brought her guard to attack the princess?"
"Nonsense! Who dare to? Who do you think the princess is? Or is the lady of the Zhang family plain stupid?"
"Right, did she somehow planned to annihilate her whole family?"
"But hey, look at the princess' eye."
"Oh my, that's…"
All the heated discussion fell onto Zhang Qianqian's ear as it felt like thunder striking her head. Her beautiful and elegant image was gone. She looked like an shrewd woman with a crazed and panic look and messy hair.
"P—Princess...no…I don't—"
Ouyang Xueqing scrutinized the terrified lady in front of her coldly. A moment ago she still felt an ounce of sympathy, but when Zhang Qianqian had ordered her guard to attack her, that feelings had vanished instantly.
She stood calmly and her gaze was bleak and unfeeling. If Ren Yupei was here, he could surely notice the hidden rage whirling beneath her pair of peculiar and mismatched eyes.
Her voice was even and soft, yet it carried a pressure that could silence the crowd. "Oh, just now you said that I am your acquaintance? Why do I not know that?"
That voice was like the drum of hell that pounded heavily on Zhang Qianqian's head. She shook her head in panic. "No—no! It was not—"
Ouyang Xueqing didn't give her any time to explain as she pulled out a talisman from her sleeve and said: "The two of you, come here."
In the next second, the ground seemed to be shaking and thumping akin to a great earthquake. The crowd hurriedly parted ways as two beasts came running full speed into the center of the scene.
It was a cyan blue tiger with a pair of light blue eyes and a black panther with red blood pupils that was snarling fiercely.
