107 The Expert Cultivator from the Spirit Sect 5

It was obvious. Zuo Shangchen could see the thoughts reflected in Ling Yu's eyes. He wrinkled his elegant brows as disgust filled his eyes before he coldly said, "Aren't you think a little too much? I've always had mysophobia. An ugly little girl like you isn't even fit to grace my eyes."

"You..." Ling Yu's face turned a shade of red from her rage and she completely forgot the current situation she was in, "What did you say? Do you really believe you look handsome when you're actually a man with a woman's face? It's a complete and utter disgrace! You're not even fit to grace my eyes!"

She was done for this time! Qingyi's heart cried out in surprise as she looked at Ling Yu with a sympathizing stare.

The one taboo that her lord have was for someone to say that he looked like a woman. Though, Gu Ruoyun seemed to be the only exception, being the only person who had ever done such a thing and got away with it.

However, that was because her brother was a close friend who had been through life and death situations with Zuo Shangchen. How could he possibly harm Gu Shengxiao's younger sister?

The others who had offended him had not been so lucky...

"What did you just say?" Zuo Shangchen's smile disappeared from his face gradually as an indescribable form of darkness took form on his beautiful face.

"Zuo Shangchen. You're the fourth prince of the Vermillion Bird Country while I'm the niece of the imperial concubine of the Azure Dragon Country. What could you possibly to me? What is it to you if I commented that you look like a woman? Don't tell me that you're going to kill me for that. Not unless... You're looking to start a war between both our countries?"

Ling Yu gritted her teeth fiercely, holding onto that insufferable, arrogant expression that was plastered across her face.

If the one speaking to her had been Elder Yu, she might still feel a tinge of fear since he was at the rank of a Martial King. She would not dare to make an enemy out of a Martial King! Zuo Shangchen was merely the fourth prince of the Vermillion Bird Country and would not have the audacity to lay his hand on the niece of the imperial concubine of the Azure Dragon Country. If he did, the two countries would definitely go to war.

Seeing this, Gu Ruoyun shook her head. Ling Yu had definitely been spoiled beyond saving. If Zuo Shangchen was a mere prince, how could it be possible that he scared away a Martial King just by uttering one simple sentence?

"Heh!"

Zuo Shangchen laughed in an eerie manner. His red lips moving ever so slightly when he uttered these three words, words that when spoken were enough to weigh Ling Yu's body down like a rock was over her.

"On your knees!"

Feeling as if her legs were suddenly under the weight of a thousand kilograms, Ling Yu fell to her knees before Zuo Shangchen. Then, she raised her head to stare at the man's beautiful features in fright and shock.

Try as she might, it was like her body had been rooted to the ground. She could not move a muscle.

"The niece of Imperial Concubine Ling, you say?" Zuo Shangchen smiled, raising a hand to brush off the speck of dirt that was on his peach blossom pink robes. Then, he sat down on his sedan again, waved his fan and sneered, "Even if it was the Imperial Concubine Ling herself, would anyone dare to stop me from killing whomever I please? I do as I like! Who would dare stop me? The Emperor of the Azure Dragon Country? My deepest apologies, he's not even worthy of my attention!"

What a domineering spirit! Such wild arrogance!

The man had a smile on his lips that carried a lazy, undisciplined air about it. However, on that very moment, nobody dared to underestimate this man, who looked like a woman any further.

"General Luo!' Ling Yu looked towards General Luo hurriedly as she said, "As the general of a nation, are you going to stand by and watch as someone takes my life? I'm an imperial relative! The Emperor is my uncle. You have to stop him!"

General Luo looked at Ling Yu in an eerie calm, "Only the nieces of the Empress are allowed to call the Emperor their uncle. You're the mere niece of an imperial concubine. You don't have the privilege to identify yourself as a member of the imperial family. To top it off, you were the one who made the first move, conspiring with external powers to harm others."

"That's different!" Ling Yu said anxiously, "Gu Ruoyun used to be the granddaughter of a general but she was later abandoned by the Gu family. Her death wouldn't even matter! However, my aunt is the imperial concubine and my blood is that of a noble, how could a lowly commoner possibly compare to that?"
