Chapter 768 (Liberation)
"Your Majesty! I'll spar with her!" Mu Ran didn't even hesitate, hastily volunteering. Cang Konghong was just an ordinary fighter, far from being a match for her.
"Mu Ran, are you ready to give up your last chance to save yourself? Don't let your personality challenge my limits!" Ye Hua's voice was low and commanding.
Mu Ran fell silent. If she angered the Emperor again, Tang Wei and the others might suffer as well.
"Make way, all of you!" Ye Hua ordered calmly.
His subordinates stepped aside, creating space in the middle.
Tang Wei helped Mu Ran to her feet, standing beside her.
Mu Ran gazed at the imposing figure. Her eyes were filled with worry. She felt that Cang Konghong was resistant toward her, yet he always stepped forward to protect her. She couldn't quite understand why.
But regardless, as she looked at his resolute back, Mu Ran was moved. She prayed to the heavens, asking that Cang Konghong wouldn't be harmed.
Even if it meant enduring pain herself, they were good people, and she had inadvertently put their comfort in jeopardy.
Yue Hua's emotions were complex at this moment. She turned around slowly and looked at Cang Konghong, who wore a mask.
Cang Konghong also turned to look at Yue Hua, the expression under his mask shifting between tension and relaxation.
It was as if his emotions were extremely conflicted.
Yue Hua felt the same way, but the Emperor had spoken. Could she really disobey?
Kai Yun, standing not far away, was also concerned about his two subordinates. Since Yue Hua's wedding day, their relationship had soured. Now the Emperor had added fuel to the fire. Did he want to completely crush Cang Konghong's spirit?
Neither Yue Hua nor Cang Konghong, as the parties involved, understood the Emperor's reasoning.
Cang Konghong stared at Yue Hua, his body slightly sinking as he adopted an attacking stance. His combatant's aura immediately radiated out.
Seeing Cang Konghong's move, Yue Hua's gaze narrowed slightly.
And then, Cang Konghong took the initiative to attack!
Today, after thousands of years, this relationship will finally come to a conclusion!
The aura of combatants filled the palace. Cang Konghong threw a simple punch, aiming directly for Yue Hua's cheek!
Yue Hua stood motionless, waiting patiently.
Beside them, Mu Ran tightly gripped her small hand.
Boom!
The punch landed forcefully in front of Yue Hua, creating a muffled sound. The tremendous recoil force sent Cang Konghong flying. He collided with the column in the palace with a resounding crash.
The coiled dragon on the column suddenly moved!
Issuing a dragon's roar, it seemed quite displeased.
Ye Hua's gaze turned cold, and the former obediently merged back into the column.
Mu Ran was dumbfounded. She thought the dragon on the column was just a carving!
She hadn't expected that the divine dragon was real! It had just raised its head, roared like a dragon, and then returned to its original state. Could it be that she had experienced an illusion and auditory hallucination just now?
But now, Cang Konghong lay beneath the column, a trace of blood oozing from his mask...
His strength had been confined to the level of a combatant, and he couldn't withstand such a backlash.
Meanwhile, Yue Hua hadn't even made a move. She had simply adopted the weakest defensive posture, but even this weakest stance was something a fighter couldn't endure.
Cang Konghong slowly stood up and once again lunged toward Yue Hua.
Boom!
Cang Konghong's body was sent flying once more. It seemed he was trying to bring himself to realisation using this method, to cease his obstinacy!
She was someone else's woman now. She was no longer the former Yue Hua!
Cang Konghong attacked again, and once again, he was sent flying.
Mu Ran, standing on the side, was in tears. She watched as Cang Konghong attacked and failed repeatedly, her heart heavy with emotion.
Yue Hua was also infuriated now. What are you doing? Are you trying to make yourself miserable with this method?'
"You did it!"
Cang Konghong threw another punch, and this time, Yue Hua finally moved!
A column of water surged from Yue Hua's body, directly grabbing hold of Cang Konghong's fist. Then, another fist made of condensed water formed and struck Cang Konghong's abdomen with force.
Boom!
Under this punch, a shockwave was generated.
"Konghong!" Mu Ran couldn't help but shout loudly, seemingly wanting to rush over.
In an instant, Ye Hua released an intimidating pressure, pinning Mu Ran to the ground, rendering her unable to move.
This was something only his subordinates should witness. Today, there had to be an understanding!
Beneath the mask, Cang Konghong was bleeding. Feeling Yue Hua's punch, he realised that this punch wasn't aimed at his body but directly at his heart.
Boom!
Yue Hua struck again!
Cang Konghong felt a sense of satisfaction. The more Yue Hua struck like this, the more his feelings for her faded.
"Stop hitting him." Mu Ran cried miserably, concerned for Cang Konghong. Completely unaware that they were dealing with their own emotional issues.
Cang Konghong raised his left fist, seemingly wanting to retaliate against Yue Hua. However, another column of water grabbed his fist, suspending him in mid-air. Then, a fist made of water struck him painfully!
Suddenly, Cang Konghong felt that Yue Hua was doing quite well. 'Go ahead and strike! This way, I won't have to worry about you anymore. I won't need to wonder whether you're doing well every day, eating on time, or feeling happy!'
Yue Hua seemed to understand as well. He struck Cang Konghong forcefully, but this scene left Mu Ran crying profusely on the side.
The subordinates remained silent, completely taken aback by how things had turned out today.
With a final punch, Cang Konghong was sent flying. Yue Hua stood still, silent. Cang Konghong had fainted, but Yue Hua had everything under control, and he was in no immediate danger.
Under the mask, Cang Konghong wore a smile, as if he had found liberation.
Ye Hua released the pressure on Mu Ran. She hurried over to check on Cang Konghong's injuries, feeling that he was in a serious condition. She couldn't believe how ruthless this woman was...
Ye Hua let out a sigh and his mood seemed less than pleasant. "Today's events end here. The Saintess is not to leave the palace."
After saying this, Ye Hua turned and left.
"Send off our Emperor!" The subordinates respectfully shouted.
Glancing at Mu Ran and Cang Konghong, they silently departed. Only Li Hun remained at the scene, arranging accommodations and waiting.
"Come with me," Li Hun said calmly.
The petite Mu Ran once again lifted Cang Konghong onto her back, her eyes red.
Li Hun watched Mu Ran's obvious concern for Cang Konghong with some surprise. Unfortunately, a man who had just experienced heartbreak couldn't truly understand the care of another woman. However, after this incident, Cang Konghong should have given up on Yue Hua.
The palace was vast. Li Hun arranged an ordinary palace for Mu Ran and the others to reside in, and then he gave a few instructions before leaving.
Mu Ran took out all the medicines and began to treat Cang Konghong's injuries.
Tang Wei and Wei Chang, standing nearby, felt a bit reassured seeing Mu Ran's intense concern for Cang Konghong. As for whether Cang Konghong would have such good fortune, that remained uncertain.
There are many women in this world, but one must find a woman who loves them in return, and not someone who's loved but doesn't love them back.
In the next dozen days or so, Mu Ran was primarily focused on taking care of Cang Konghong. News of this situation also spread among the team.
