Resisting the Wind and Splendor

Chapter 168 Friends are for whipping.

"Third Prince, it has been investigated. It was indeed only Miss Li who broke into the Xishan Stone Forest that day... Oh no, she also brought her maid, that little girl named Zisu."

When Qijin brought the news back, Tuoba Yi was practicing his spear skills.

He still had Wudan standing not far away with a stack of light gauze. He fired a shot, and the gauze was instantly torn apart.

Wu Dan counted the number of layers, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Third Prince, it's finally eight layers! No more, no less! We've succeeded this time!"

He looked very excited; of course, how could he not be?

For several days now, ever since the Third Prince was able to get out of bed again, he has been making him practice this skill.

For three whole days, I did almost nothing but practice shooting.

Anyway, he is currently in Dongling and does not need to deal with government affairs, so he has plenty of time.

Wudan, however, found it extremely difficult to accompany him.

Each of the Third Prince's spear thrusts carried a chilling aura. He himself didn't feel it, but Wu Dan's internal strength was far inferior to his, and he was about to freeze to death.

This time, cutting through eight layers was exactly the right amount, so I guess it's a perfect success?

"Third Prince, look, it really is eight layers. I'm absolutely not lying to you!" Wu Dan quickly presented the layers of gauze to Tuoba Yi.

Tuoba Yi's eyes showed a hint of surprise, but the next moment, his face fell.

On the ninth floor, a small opening was cut open.

Although the force wasn't great, it still hit the ninth floor.

Wu Dan could tell at a glance what he was dissatisfied with, and quickly said, "Third Prince, this... being able to reach the eighth level is already quite remarkable. Even Prince Mo might not be able to do it."

"He can definitely do it." Tuoba Yi snorted coldly, and when he mentioned that bastard, he really wanted to kick him a couple of times.

"Chu Yue Li can do it!"

Wu Dan broke out in a cold sweat and quickly comforted her, "This is just skillful application of technique, nothing special. It's not surprising that a young girl could use skillful application of technique more nimbly than a man..."

"Since that's the case, why don't you have Liuli practice it and show it to me?" Tuoba Yi snorted.

Wudan quickly shut his mouth, not daring to utter another sound.

If the Seventh Princess were to be captured and used for shooting practice, she would surely kill him.

Tuoba Yi was somewhat discouraged.

It's been three days, and he still can't do it.

How exactly did Chu Yueli manage to do that?

"What did you just say? Did Chu Yueli really go to the Stone Forest alone to rescue Lu Fengjin?" Of course, it made no difference whether that girl named Zisu was there or not, so everyone just pretended she didn't exist.

Qi Jin nodded: "Yes, Miss Li left Chu Xiaohe's army and went to Shilin to rescue Lu Fengjin first. She was probably too worried about Prince Jin and couldn't wait to leave with everyone."

"Such deep affection and loyalty?" Tuoba Yi narrowed his eyes, a playful smile flashing across them. "Hasn't the Prince of Mo returned to the capital yet?"

"They should arrive before the autumn hunt." Previously, there were bandits causing trouble in Wuxi. King Mo led a hundred elite soldiers to the area. When Lu Fengjin led his troops to quell the bandits, he was not in the capital.

Otherwise, it should have been Prince Mo who went to rescue Prince Jin.

"Autumn Hunt?" Tuoba Yi pondered for a moment. "There are still two days before the Autumn Hunt begins. Two days... is too slow. Send someone to deliver the message that... Chu Yueli risked her life to save Lu Fengjin and was seriously injured."

"Third Prince, this...isn't this inappropriate?" Wu Dan hesitated. "Prince Mo...is your friend!"

"Aren't friends meant to be whipped? Why don't you see what that bastard did to me, the prince!"

He also wanted to use this opportunity to see whether Lu Beimo, that bastard, was truly sincere or not towards Chu Yueli.

Both Udan and Qijin looked helpless.

This doesn't look like revenge; it looks more like... watching a good show?
