Zhuge Xiang on a Rampage (Part 3)

However, although Zhuge Xiang bowed to King Fenghe, he was there for Wu Zhao, and Zhuge Xiang would not give up until he saw her and was able to take her away.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry," Zhuge Xiang said, apologizing to King Fenghe. He then grabbed Mo Lingna's hand and rushed towards Wu Zhao's direction.

Although Mo Lingna was always jealous about him and other women, Zhuge Xiang felt that as a man, he couldn't hide the fact that Mo Lingna loved him.

As for how Mo Lingna views her relationship with Wu Zhao, that's not something Zhuge Xiang can decide.

"Zhuge Consecrated? He's the Zhuge Xiang converted the Great Belly Ghost King?" The middle-aged Sword Cultivator's expression changed slightly upon hearing King Fenghe's words.

Zhuge Xiang had converted the Great Belly Ghost King and also possessed the Fire Control King Ming Yan within the Heaven-Piercing Tower. Such achievements, coupled with his newly appointed Imperial Clan Consecrated, had already made him renowned.

Although he had long heard that Zhuge Xiang's cultivation was only at the True Essence Realm to the Gathering Origin Stage, and that he was very young, he was still shocked to see this Sword Cultivator today. No wonder that his cultivation at the Gathering Origin Stage was enough to injure him; so he was Zhuge Xiang after all.

"Luckily, I am a human Cultivator, not some Yaomo Ghosts and Monsters, nor some Utterly Evil thug. Otherwise, it wouldn't just be these minor injuries..." Looking at the injuries on his body caused by the Vast Sword Qi, the middle-aged Sword Cultivator secretly rejoiced. He thought to himself that even the Great Belly Ghost King could be converted, which showed that Zhuge Xiang's forte was dealing with evil beings.

"Your Highness, should we give chase?" The Void Returning Stage Sword Cultivator asked, watching Zhuge Xiang, who didn't even seem inclined to continue the conversation with King Fenghe, but instead kept rushing into the palace.

Even though they knew Zhuge Xiang's identity, judging from his appearance, he seemed to have ill intentions. Even if he was Imperial Clan retainer, he could not act recklessly within the Prince's residence.

"No need. Let him go. These are matters for the young people themselves..." However, King Fenghe simply shook his head at the Sword Cultivator's words, disagreeing with going to intercept Zhuge Xiang.

Alright, since King Fenghe has already given the order not to obstruct Zhuge Xiang can now move freely within the palace without any further interference.

Holding Mo Lingna's hand, Zhuge Xiang rudely kicked open Wu Zhao's door and went inside, pulling Mo Lingna by the hand.

Inside the room, Wu Zhao leaned against the headboard. She, who usually liked to wear armor and tight-fitting clothes, was now wearing a light pink dress because of her pregnancy. She looked less heroic than usual, but more gentle and feminine.

Wu Zhao leaned against the headboard, her hands gently stroking her visibly protruding belly, her eyes filled with the tenderness and love of a mother...

In Zhuge Xiang's view, he and Wu Zhao met, fell in love, and remained in love for ten years in the Illusionary Realm. He thought this love should be very strong.

However, seeing the maternal kindness and love in Wu Zhao's eyes, Zhuge Xiang paused slightly. Having already stepped into the room, he didn't know how to take another step.

Looking up at Zhuge Xiang, Wu Zhao's eyes flashed with a complex expression—surprise, confusion, and of course, affection.

Zhuge Xiang was so resolute that day, but today, Wu Zhao truly doesn't know why Zhuge Xiang would force his way into the King Fenghe's Mansion. If his love for her is so deep, then why was he so heartless towards her that day?

However, when Wu Zhao saw Zhuge Xiang leading Mo Lingna by the hand to him, a cold glint appeared in Wu Zhao eyes. Rejecting him was one thing, but to bring Mo Lingna along? What did this mean?

"Why are you here?" Wu Zhao's face turned cold, his tone carrying a chilling indifference.

Although Mo Lingna was prone to jealousy and harbored hostility towards the other women around Zhuge Xiang, at this moment, seeing that Zhuge Xiang and Wu Zhao indeed had a deep relationship that she was far from aware of, Mo Lingna wisely refrained from interjecting and simply let Zhuge Xiang hold her hand while she quietly watched.

"I came to find you because I love you," Zhuge Xiang said, holding Mo Lingna's hand, but his eyes were filled with deep affection as he looked at Wu Zhao.

Mo Lingna trembled slightly. She naturally saw the love in Zhuge Xiang's eyes. Zhuge Xiang actually loved her? He had never looked at her like that before.

Zhuge Xiang's words startled Wu Zhao slightly. He hadn't expected Zhuge Xiang to utter the word "love" again, and he certainly hadn't expected him to say it to him again.

"That day, I did indeed reject you, because we had been in love for ten years in the Illusionary Realm. I felt that it was just Nanke Dream, an illusion. However, when I received the Invitation, the pain in my heart told me that this feeling was not an illusion. I, Zhuge Xiang, had no choice but to watch you marry someone else." Without waiting for Wu Zhao's reply, Zhuge Xiang spoke, revealing his true feelings.

"Ten years of love within the Illusionary Realm? So that's how it is?" Although Mo Lingna didn't go to the Scorching Desert, Mo Lingna still knew about Zhuge Xiang's encounter with the Illusionary Nether King in the Illusionary Realm Desert.

Mo Lingna was initially puzzled as to why Zhuge Xiang and Wu Zhao suddenly had such a deep affection for each other. They had both lived in the Hall of Honored Guests before, and she hadn't noticed it before. So, had they been in love for ten years in the Illusionary Realm? If that was the case, it would explain why Zhuge Xiang acted this way today.

"Haha, how ridiculous! You were the one who said you'd let go, but today you're the one who says you love me. What? Am I, Wu Zhao, really just a plaything for you, Zhuge Xiang, to be summoned and dismissed at will?" Although Zhuge Xiang's words were unexpected for Wu Zhao immediately laughed loudly.

"I'm a very selfish person. In the Illusionary Realm, I stayed with you for a lifetime because you loved me, loved me wholeheartedly. But now?"

At this point, Wu Zhao glanced at Mo Lingna beside him and said, "You have other women, and more than one. Since you don't love me wholeheartedly, what right do you have to ask me to come back to you?"

"No! Today! You must come with me! Even if you don't want to be with me, I won't let you marry someone else!" Zhuge Xiang's face darkened, showing no intention of reasoning, his words simple yet domineering. "Even if I have to steal you, I will take you away today!" (To be continued...)
