Chapter 222: Why Did You Bind Her So Inappropriately?
Jun Yunshang pulled back the feathered cloak that had hidden their presence and looked at the person with disappointment, “Ye Ling, why?”
“What do you mean, why, Your Highness? What are you talking about?” Ye Ling pretended to be clueless.
“Miss Ye Ling, can you tell me what that was just now?” Lin Fengmian asked smilingly.
Ye Ling was momentarily speechless, then she tried to defend herself, “That was just a message I sent back to my junior brother to let him know I was safe.”
“Was that a message to let him know you were safe? Do you think we’re fools?” Lin Fengmian replied with a helpless smile.
“Ever since someone started following us for no apparent reason, I knew there was a traitor among us. I just didn’t know who it was.”
“Elder Huang even used the secret technique of Burning Blood, so it couldn’t have been him. I never expected it to be you. Truly surprising.”
Jun Yunshang looked completely disbelieving and sad, “Why, I thought I treated you well.”
Ye Ling fell silent, then said with a pained expression, “Your Highness, do you really believe this guy’s lies?”
“That was really a message to my younger brother. I know this journey is fraught with danger, and I simply can’t bear to leave my adoptive mother, who raised me for many years, behind.”
“I tossed and turned in my mind before deciding to send a message to my junior brother to let him know that I am safe and to ask him to take care of my elderly adoptive mother if I don’t return.”
Her voice choked with emotion, “Your Highness, I know I shouldn’t, but I’ve been with my adoptive mother since I was a child. I can’t bear to leave her. Please punish me as you see fit.”
Ye Ling’s words were heartfelt, her eyes red from crying, making Jun Yunshang hesitate and instinctively look at Lin Fengmian.
Lin Fengmian shook his head helplessly, “We’ve met our match!”
This girl can put on quite a show, not bad at all.
He smiled, “I knew you’d deny it even if I caught you red-handed. But what do you think of this?”
He waved a jade slip in his hand, and Ye Ling’s face changed drastically, “This can’t be!”
Lin Fengmian laughed lightly, “Nothing is impossible for me!”
He threw the jade slip to Elder Huang with a smile, “Elder Huang, take a look at the contents of the message!”
Elder Huang took the jade slip and immersed his divine consciousness in it, then he was taken aback.
Inside, it was a message left by Lin Fengmian, not what Ye Ling had sent.
But he reacted quickly, following the instructions in the jade slip and burst out in anger, “Ye Ling, what audacity!”
“You actually informed others of all our information, including the fact that Young Master Ye can’t use his powers now. What else do you have to say?”
Ye Ling’s face changed drastically, and she transformed into a stream of light, trying to escape.
“Do you think you can try to escape while I’m here?”
Lin Fengmian laughed heartily and transformed into a stream of light, chasing after Ye Ling.
“You lied to me, you can still use your spiritual power!” Ye Ling’s voice was filled with anger and frustration.
“So what if I lied? Who told you to be so stupid?”
Lin Fengmian laughed heartily, closely following her as they disappeared into the forest.
Jun Yunshang looked sad, “I never expected her to be a traitor!”
Elder Huang also looked disappointed, then sighed, “Truly, you can know a person’s face, but not their heart!”
Guan Ming, who had been resting in the cave, felt the abnormal spiritual power fluctuations and ran out in surprise, “Who is it?”
“Your Highness, Elder Huang, why are you outside? What’s going on?”
Elder Huang sighed and recounted what had just happened, leaving Guan Ming in disbelief.
“How could this be? Ye Ling actually betrayed Your Highness?”
After a brief moment of shock, he couldn’t help but burst out in anger, “Why did she do this?”
“I don’t know.”
Looking weary, Jun Yunshang turned to Elder Huang, “Elder Huang, what did Ye Ling say in the jade slip she sent to the Fourteenth Prince?”
Elder Huang chuckled bitterly. “Your Highness will see for yourself.”
Jun Yunshang took the jade slip and found that it was not a message at all, but rather a guide on how to act. She couldn’t help but chuckle bitterly. “Young Master Ye is truly perceptive.”
On the other side, Lin Fengmian quickly caught up with Ye Ling and blocked her path with a smile. “Miss Ye Ling, you don’t think you can escape, do you?”
A flash of something strange crossed Ye Ling’s eyes. She suddenly pulled out a talisman and activated it, causing a torrent of fire rain to fall from the sky, shooting towards Lin Fengmian.
Lin Fengmian shook his head. “Truly, you will not shed a tear until you see the coffin!”
With one hand, he conjured a screen of lightning, effortlessly extinguishing the fire rain. Then he flicked his finger, sending out a bolt of lightning.
The lightning chased after Ye Ling, who was still running far away. She let out aanguished scream and her body convulsed as she fell to the ground.
A moment later, Lin Fengmian threw the tightly bound Ye Ling to the ground.
He casually said to Jun Yunshang, “I’ve brought her back. What you do with her is up to you.”
Ye Ling was bound with a special technique that made her unable to move. The more she struggled, the tighter the ropes became, even accentuating her otherwise unremarkable figure.
Feeling humiliated, she dared not move anymore and yelled, “Pervert! Freak, I won’t let you go!”
Luo Xue also felt somewhat embarrassed. “Lin Fengmian, why did you bind her so… improperly?”
Lin Fengmian’s face turned red, and he coughed. “I accidentally used the Joyful Union Sect’s binding technique. It’s a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”
While this binding technique was generally not used in this way, Lin Fengmian found it quite effective!
This special binding technique added extra damage and restraint to women.
He mentally gave a thumbs up to the Joyful Union Sect!
“Pervert!” Luo Xue said speechlessly.
Looking at Ye Ling, Jun Yunshang didn’t think too much about it. She asked sadly, “Ye Ling, why did you betray me?”
Guan Ming scolded, “That’s right, Ye Ling! The princess has been good to you, and you still betrayed her. You, you, you…”
Ye Ling’s face was filled with guilt. Finally, she closed her eyes and gave up. “I have lost. Do what you want with me.”
Jun Yunshang was a bit disappointed, but still had a glimmer of hope. “Did someone threaten your adoptive mother to make you do this?”
Ye Ling opened her mouth, her eyes flashing with hesitation. A handsome face flashed through her mind.
After a moment of contemplation, she assumed a resigned posture.
“Your Highness, don’t say any more. It’s my fault.”
Jun Yunshang sighed and finally picked up her sword, raising it to strike.
Ye Ling closed her eyes, bracing herself for death, but the expected pain never came. Instead, she felt a sudden release.
“You may go. I won’t kill you, but don’t show your face to me again.”
Jun Yunshang couldn’t bring herself to kill Ye Ling. Instead, she cut the ropes that Lin Fengmian had bound her with, giving her freedom.
Ye Ling’s eyes flashed with unbridled joy.
She had won her bet.
She struggled to her feet, her expression complex as she looked at Jun Yunshang. She bowed silently and prepared to leave.
“Stop! Did I say you could leave?”
Lin Fengmian’s cold voice made her freeze, her entire body on high alert as she faced him.
