This time, Qian Lingwu was traveling in an extremely luxurious beast carriage, and Qin Chu also sat inside the carriage, opposite Qian Lingwu.
“Qin Chu, tell me about your experience comprehending the Sword Spirit Realm? This Princess can let you go and will not attack you again; if you wish, this Princess can even arrange an official position for you within the Dynasty, or even grant you a fief.” Qian Lingwu said to Qin Chu.
Qin Chu looked at Qian Lingwu, “You cannot make me believe you.”
“Why don’t you believe this Princess?” After hearing Qin Chu’s words, Qian Lingwu’s temper flared, but she still managed to restrain herself. If it were anyone else being so impolite, she could crush them with a flick of her hand, but Qin Chu was different. Killing him would cause too much trouble, and besides, she didn’t think it was necessary; Qin Chu didn’t deserve to die.
“To gain others’ trust, one must first possess decent character. You, a Cultivator of the King Realm, attacked me, a Cultivator of the third-stage True Origin Realm—is that having character?” Qin Chu said.
Unable to bear it any longer, Qian Lingwu stood up, her Origin Qi pressing down on Qin Chu, and she raised her leg to deliver a fierce kick, while her fists also began to pummel Qin Chu.
After hitting Qin Chu with her fancy but ineffective punches for a while, Qian Lingwu returned to her seat. “Satisfying. After being suppressed, letting loose is truly satisfying.”
Lying on the ground, Qin Chu gasped for Qi. He felt that his mouth had gotten him into trouble, and he shouldn’t have provoked Qian Lingwu. This woman had violent tendencies.
“Let me tell you, this Princess has excellent character and has never gone back on her word. You are not qualified to question that.” After feeling satisfied, Qian Lingwu said.
“Then why don’t you say so? How would I know if you don’t tell me!” Qin Chu, after taking a beating, sat down opposite Qian Lingwu. His body was tough, and Qian Lingwu’s beating this time was just an instinctive way to vent her anger, so she didn’t use much Origin Qi energy, and Qin Chu wasn’t injured.
“Now you know, right? If this Princess says she’ll let you go, she will definitely let you go. I always keep my word. Now you can speak.” Qian Lingwu said after tidying her skirt.
“No! I was inexplicably beaten, I’m dizzy, and I’m in a bad mood.” Qin Chu simply lay on the long seat in the beast carriage. He was just displeased; who could be happy after being beaten? Especially by a woman.
Qian Lingwu took out a bottle of Medicinal Pill and threw it to Qin Chu. “The best healing medicine!”
He took the Medicinal Pill, stuffed it into his Storage Ring, and then closed his eyes, lying there. He didn’t want to talk to anyone right now.
Qian Lingwu knew Qin Chu was throwing a tantrum and didn’t say anything.
This time, Qian Lingwu was traveling with attendants. After dark, the carriage stopped, and someone prepared food. After Qin Chu ate dinner with the attendants, he re-entered the carriage.
As soon as Qin Chu entered the carriage, Qian Lingwu, who was meditating, opened her eyes. “What are you doing? Go out and rest!”
“I won’t. With the carriage shielding me from wind and rain, why should I go out?” Ignoring Qian Lingwu, Qin Chu took out a meditation cushion and immediately sat down to Cultivate. Who was asking whom for a favor now? This was how it was going to be; she could do whatever she wanted!
Staring at Qin Chu, Qian Lingwu raised her arm and then lowered it. Before, she thought Qin Chu was stubborn and had strong willpower, but now she discovered another trait: shamelessness. Everyone knew it was inappropriate for a man and a woman to be in the same room, especially at night. Qin Chu entering the carriage—wasn’t that causing trouble?
Qian Lingwu endured it. In this situation, if she didn’t endure, she would have to go out, and could she, the dignified Eldest Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, give up her place to Qin Chu? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Looking at Qin Chu, who was sitting in meditation, Qian Lingwu was puzzled. Could it be that besides her Cultivation, she had no other way to subdue Qin Chu?
After Cultivating all night, Qin Chu ate with the attendants in the morning and then returned to the carriage.
“Why can’t you be a little more sensible? This is my carriage. Can’t you ride a Yao Beast outside?” Qian Lingwu said, looking at Qin Chu, who had returned to the carriage.
“Aren’t I afraid you’ll worry about me escaping? By doing this, I’m giving you peace of mind.” Qin Chu said with a smile.
Qian Lingwu smiled, a helpless smile. She had met all sorts of people, but no one was as shameless as Qin Chu. She had now adjusted her mindset; she couldn’t afford to argue with Qin Chu!
“You still look very beautiful when you smile.” Seeing a smile appear on Qian Lingwu’s face, Qin Chu complimented her.
Qian Lingwu ignored Qin Chu’s words. After drinking a cup of tea, she continued to Cultivate.
Qian Lingwu’s carriage didn’t travel very fast. It took six days for the group to reach the outer area of Tianxiang Valley.
“You all wait for this Princess here. This Princess is going to do something.” After Qian Lingwu exited the carriage, she instructed her attendants, then took out a beast tendon and threw it at Qin Chu’s feet.
“No… what do you mean by this?” Qin Chu was stunned.
“Aren’t you going to give this Princess peace of mind? How about tying one leg? It also saves this Princess from having to do it herself, which wouldn’t be good, right?” Qian Lingwu said, looking at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu pointed at Qian Lingwu, then bent down and tied the beast tendon to his ankle, throwing one end of the beast tendon to Qian Lingwu. He felt that this beast tendon was useless; if Qian Lingwu herself didn’t have any problems, he couldn’t escape even without the beast tendon. Conversely, this beast tendon wouldn’t serve any purpose.
Pulling the beast tendon, Qian Lingwu and Qin Chu left the group and approached the Tianxiang Valley area.
After walking a distance, Qian Lingwu led Qin Chu to a military camp. There were more than a dozen soldiers in the camp, whose Cultivation Qin Chu could not perceive.
“Your Highness the Eldest Princess, the passage has been dug through. This subordinate followed Duke Cao. This subordinate did not exit the passage, but Duke Cao did. This subordinate saw a woman appear and fight with Duke Cao, and later Duke Cao was killed.” A man in armor said.
“A woman… Lead the way, this Princess will go in and see.” After hearing the report, Qian Lingwu waved her arm.
Led by the soldier, Qian Lingwu pulled Qin Chu into a large tent nearby.
The large tent had no furnishings, only a pit in the ground with a flight of stone steps extending downwards.
Qian Lingwu entered, pulling Qin Chu, making him follow her into the tunnel.
“The four great Sects are confronting each other outside, while your Qian Dynasty is playing dirty tricks here, tsk tsk!” After entering the tunnel, Qin Chu spoke.
“You shut up!” Even though she had decided not to argue with Qin Chu, Qian Lingwu couldn’t stand his attitude. The leading soldier also glared at Qin Chu.
After cursing and feeling a little relieved, Qin Chu stopped talking. After walking for nearly half an hour, the tunnel extended upwards to the surface.
“You wait for this Princess here.” Qian Lingwu called out to the leading soldier.
“I will also wait for Your Highness the Eldest Princess here.” Qin Chu said. Qian Lingwu was going to fight, and he certainly didn’t want to go.
“You wish! Let’s go!” Qian Lingwu tugged the beast tendon, pulling Qin Chu out of the tunnel.
Emerging from the tunnel, Qin Chu had a feeling of birds singing and flowers fragrant, but before he could fully appreciate it, Qian Lingwu pulled him forward.
As Qian Lingwu pulled Qin Chu forward a short distance, a woman appeared.
Seeing the woman appear, Qin Chu’s eyes were filled with surprise, followed by joy, because an opportunity had arrived.
