Get Out and Die

The conversation between the two left Pang Rong, who was lying on the ground, bewildered.

He had thought Lu Chen came because of the time he blocked the entrance to Tianyu Academy.

Now it seemed that wasn't the case at all.

They already knew each other.

His pants immediately got wet.

The others also had a sudden realization.

No wonder this scoundrel was beating, killing, and cursing like a madman; they already knew each other, and their relationship wasn't shallow.

Perhaps Lu Chen was one of the Peerless Princess's suitors.

"I'll arrange for someone after this," the Peerless Princess said when Lu Chen nodded.

"Is it Yun Niang?" Lu Chen asked, his eyes lighting up.

A slight curve formed beneath the black veil covering the Peerless Princess's lips. "Perhaps. It depends on your performance!"

"Where is she?"

"I've assigned her a small task. If all goes well, she'll be back soon!"

Lu Chen couldn't help but look disappointed.

If Yun Niang wasn't here, what the hell was he supposed to do?

His motivation vanished instantly.

"What did you just say?" the Peerless Princess suddenly asked, seeing Pang Rong secretly retreating.

Pang Rong trembled and quickly replied, "N-nothing?"

"If it's nothing, why are you in such a state? Go back and clean yourself up! You're an embarrassment!"

Pang Rong's throat felt sweet; he almost suffered internal injuries from the scolding.

Under the scornful gazes of everyone present, he shamefully scurried out of the hall.

"Little Wolf King!" the Peerless Princess said, looking at Di Kun, who had blood on his chest, with a hint of confusion.

"Before you came in, I saw someone from your Wolf Court unconscious, and you have blood on your chest. What is this..."

Di Kun's eye sockets twitched. Was she mocking him?

He let out a cold snort. "It's all thanks to your people. Arrogant, overbearing, and unreasonable!"

The Peerless Princess smiled. "My people were out of line. Fortunately, there was no significant loss. Please forgive us!"

Damn it!

Di Kun almost exploded.

He had lost several of his men, and she called it "no significant loss"?

"He..."

"Alright, I know you're upset. After all, you lost face at my banquet. I hope the Little Wolf King can overlook this matter and let it go, how about it?"

Yeah, yeah~...

The Little Wolf King was trembling with anger.

"You don't want to let it go?" someone next to the Little Wolf King roared.

"Your people beat our people and killed my brothers. Why should we just let it go?"

"Lu Chen must pay with his life, or don't blame the Wolf Court for turning hostile."

Qiu Mo, who witnessed this scene, rejoiced inwardly.

Let's see how you handle this.

Perhaps you'll really have to marry him.

The Peerless Princess frowned.

"Today, I am hosting everyone... Did I send you an invitation?" She paused mid-sentence, then changed tack. "And who are you?"

The man's breath hitched.

"He is with me!" the Little Wolf King stepped forward.

"Of course, I know he's with you, otherwise, he'd be a corpse by now!"

She then looked at the other man. "Since you've snuck in, abide by the rules, or get out!"

"You..." The man's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

"Heh, one invitation brought in over twenty people. Little Wolf King, your Wolf Court people may lack manners, but that doesn't mean my Great Yan people lack them. Is the imperial forbidden ground a place you can just enter as you please?"

"Or perhaps you've taken the outside rumors as truth and consider the Peerless Palace your home?"

"If you have any self-awareness, it's best to abandon that thought, lest you bring ruin upon yourself!"

This was a direct confrontation.

I've made it clear to the Little Wolf King that I'm not interested in him.

"I, Ji Wushuang, am interested in heavenly prodigies who look down on the Nine Heavens, in ambitious figures who harbor benevolence and the world in their hearts, in heroes who are untamed and dare to take responsibility. Tell me, which of these points do you meet?"

"When your own people are killed or beaten, don't tell me the reasons first and just whine to me. If you complain and seek justice, I'll look down on you a hundred times. Little Prince of the Wolf Court, I just saw you throw a Blood Thunder Seed. What, are you trying to blow up my palace?"

The air in the hall solidified to an extreme.

Boundless anger and humiliation surged like a tide, and the Little Wolf King was utterly enraged.

He had never been so humiliated before.

He had come with a heart full of passion only to end up like this. If he endured any longer, he wouldn't be the Little Wolf King, nor the future heir of the Wolf Court.

"Lu Chen, get out here and die!" the Little Wolf King roared, shooting out of the hall.

What the hell!

Lu Chen was stunned.

Truly, a woman's mouth is like a poisoned blade, capable of utterly destroying a person!

Was she saying all this just to enrage the Little Wolf King and make him fight me to the death?

But how could she know that I could defeat him?

And even if I defeated him, would I be able to handle the aftermath?

"Get out here!" the Little Wolf King roared repeatedly, his voice shaking the heavens.

Everyone looked at Lu Chen.

Seeing his hesitation, they became even more certain that he was the Peerless Princess's man.

Where was the domineering aura from before?

It was clearly due to the presence of the Peerless Princess.

"Get out here and die!" the Little Wolf King roared again.

Lu Chen looked at the Peerless Princess, then at the door, scratched his head, and said with a wry smile:

"Little Prince, can you not be so agitated? The Princess was just joking with you, don't take it so hard!"

Pfft pfft...

Many people burst out laughing.

Damn it, he's even trying to mediate.

But this isn't mediation, it's clearly adding fuel to the fire!

"Get out!"

"I can't beat you!"

My god...

Many people wanted to grab Lu Chen and beat him up.

The Peerless Princess sighed at the opportune moment, looking at the Wolf Court members who didn't know whether to retreat or advance, and said:

"Try to persuade your Little Wolf King. If anything happens, my Peerless Palace truly cannot bear the responsibility!"

"Give him my regards, and please forgive me if the hospitality has been lacking!"

This was clearly a hint for them to leave.

Given the Little Wolf King's temperament, it was impossible for him to accept this.

When he heard this outside, the Little Wolf King became even more furious.

He specifically demanded that Lu Chen come out and die, otherwise, he would return and lead ten thousand wolf guards to flatten Great Yan.

He was so provoked that he was speaking nonsense.

Ji Wushuang's expression turned grim. She flicked out an imperial decree and shouted:

"You want to fight? Then sign a life-and-death waiver, or get lost!"

"Bring it on!" the Little Wolf King's furious roar came from outside.

Someone took the imperial decree and went out, quickly returning with the Little Wolf King's life-and-death document.

The gist of it was that Great Yan and the Peerless Palace would not be held responsible, and the Wolf Court would not seek retribution from others.

The Peerless Princess handed the document to Lu Chen. "Decide for yourself whether to fight or not."

Lu Chen glanced at it twice and said with a wry smile: "The Wolf Court says they won't seek retribution from Great Yan, but they didn't say they wouldn't seek retribution from me. It's written too vaguely. I won't fight!"

Pfft pfft pfft...

Many people couldn't take it anymore.

"Then make him rewrite it!"

With that, the Peerless Princess threw out another imperial decree.

The Little Wolf King outside was on the verge of collapse.

Weren't you looking down on the world? Weren't you wild and untamed?

Scared of wolves in front and tigers behind, is this it?

Suppressing his boundless rage, he added another condition: if he died, the Wolf Court would not trouble Lu Chen; their fates were their own.

Looking at the death contract, Lu Chen's heart stirred. He surveyed the crowd and smiled.

"Your Highness, I have an idea!"

"Please, speak!"

"You see so many people present, shouldn't they also be witnesses?"

Rustle...

As soon as he spoke, the crowd erupted.

"I think it's a good idea!" the Peerless Princess smiled. "Little Sword King, and Princess Shasha, what do you two think?"

Lu Yang and Zhu Sha were driven to distraction.

What business was it of theirs, yet they felt ashamed to refuse.

If they didn't even dare to be a witness, lacking any courage, how could they be worthy of the title 'Heavenly Prodigy'?

The key was that they had been outdone by the Little Wolf King!
