Chapter 1360: Mingchen's Suppressed Fury
Wang Jianqiang and the others flew for over a hundred miles in one breath.
Seeing that the Sea Giant Cultivators behind them had not caught up.
Mingchen let out a long sigh of relief.
Thinking of his own embarrassing performance earlier, his expression shifted for a moment.
He looked at Tianyu and Lianyin, then looked at Biyan'er.
He gave a dry cough and said, "Just now, I wasn't scared; I was worried that those people wouldn't keep their word and would hurt you, so I wanted to cover your retreat."
Upon hearing this, a flash of disdain crossed Lianyin's face.
Biyan'er's expression was somewhat strange.
A sincere smile appeared on Wang Jianqiang's face, "I believe Brother Mingchen."
"Brother Mingchen has always been known for his bravery, how could he be scared by the enemy?"
Hearing Tianyu's words, Mingchen showed a look of satisfaction.
Just as he was about to cast an appreciative gaze at Tianyu, he immediately noticed the scene of Tianyu holding one in each arm, and then thought of the great opportunity Tianyu had obtained...
The jealousy in his heart erupted instantly, and he snorted coldly, "Tianyu, you have such great audacity, daring to address this Prince by his given name!"
Wang Jianqiang was taken aback, "Brother Mingchen, you are..."
"You still dare to call it?"
Mingchen was furious.
Wang Jianqiang looked startled and quickly changed his tone, "Your Highness the Prince, please forgive me; it was Tianyu who was abrupt."
"That's more like it."
Mingchen showed a look of satisfaction, and then his expression stiffened, "Now that we have escaped danger, why haven't you let go of Her Highness the Princess?"
"Are you trying to harbor evil intentions toward the Princess?"
Wang Jianqiang was startled, "This... Your Highness the Prince, please forgive me. It was an emergency earlier, so I had to resort to this last resort. I will release Her Highness the Princess right now."
As he spoke, Wang Jianqiang prepared to descend to the ground.
"Wait."
Just then, Lianyin spoke up suddenly. She glanced at Mingchen indifferently, then said to Wang Jianqiang, "We are not far from those Sea Giant Cultivators; we cannot rest here."
"This..."
Wang Jianqiang looked at Mingchen with some difficulty, "How about this, Your Highness the Prince, why don't you carry Her Highness the Princess?"
Mingchen's expression froze.
He could barely hold on himself now.
Carry Lianyin?
Wouldn't that mean his cover would be blown immediately?
His expression flickered, "This... this Prince still needs to keep watch at the rear. For the safety of the Princess... um... you should continue to carry the Princess as you fly."
"This..."
Wang Jianqiang was in a dilemma, "This... is it appropriate?"
Mingchen snorted coldly, "This Prince is giving an order; you just need to listen. Do you intend to defy the order?"
A flash of hesitation crossed Wang Jianqiang's face, but in the end, he nodded reluctantly, "As you command."
Biyan'er had been observing the conversation between the two the entire time.
Seeing Mingchen being so impolite to Tianyu, she frowned, feeling indignant for Tianyu in her heart.
She wanted to stand up for Tianyu, but thinking that this was an internal matter of the Mermaid Clan and it was not appropriate for her, an outsider Cultivator, to intervene, she ultimately held back.
She sighed inwardly.
Daoist Friend Tianyu is just too kind after all.
On the other side.
Lianyin also did not speak.
She looked at Wang Jianqiang, speechless.
This guy is too good at acting.
Don't look at how he seems to have suffered a grievance on the surface; in reality, Mingchen is likely being angered to death by him.
This is simply rubbing salt into someone's wounds repeatedly.
Afterward, the group of four continued to fly forward.
After flying another hundred miles, Mingchen's face had turned as pale as paper, and his breathing had clearly become heavy.
He wanted to speak up and call for a stop, but his intense pride would not allow him to show weakness to Tianyu, a lowly bloodline of the Black Scale Lineage.
Not until they had flown two hundred miles did he finally become completely exhausted.
Everything went black before his eyes.
He began to free-fall.
Wang Jianqiang reacted instantly and hurriedly channeled a wisp of power to catch Mingchen.
With a face full of concern, he said, "Your Highness the Prince, are you alright?"
Hearing Tianyu's concerned tone, Mingchen's consciousness, which had already become muddled, instantly cleared up a bit.
Feeling the power supporting him, he frowned and snorted coldly at "Tianyu", "Meddlesome! This Prince just suddenly noticed something unusual underground and wanted to descend to investigate. What are you doing?"
"Let go of me."
Wang Jianqiang's expression was hesitant, "But..."
Mingchen's voice suddenly rose several degrees, "Release me immediately...!"
Before Mingchen could finish the word "immediately", the supporting force beneath him suddenly vanished.
He plummeted toward the ground in an instant.
His expression startled, he hurriedly squeezed out the last trace of Spiritual Power remaining in his body, wanting to steady his form.
Originally.
Although his Spiritual Power was exhausted.
After the brief moment of recovery just now, he was still able to barely squeeze out a sliver of Spiritual Power.
While this sliver of Spiritual Power could not support him in flying forward, it was enough to slow his descent and ensure he landed safely.
It was just that...
His current state was too poor.
Squeezing out Spiritual Power also required time.
That grandson Tianyu had suddenly withdrawn his power without warning, catching him off guard.
By the time he reacted, he was already about to crash into the ground.
There was clearly no time left.
Bang~
The earth trembled.
His face made intimate contact with the ground.
The earth seemed unable to bear his countenance, cracking into a dozen fissures.
Mingchen was already at his limit, and this impact left him stunned.
When he woke up again.
He discovered he was already inside a mountain cave.
Immediately after, a face full of concern appeared in his field of vision, "Your Highness Prince, you are awake."
"It was truly too dangerous before."
"Since you were already exhausted, why did you ask me to let you go?"
Hearing Tianyu's words, Mingchen's face twitched.
He could not help but start cursing in his heart.
Bastard!
If you hadn't withdrawn your power so suddenly, would I have been dropped?
He highly suspected that Tianyu had done it on purpose.
Just as thoughts flickered through his mind, Tianyu's voice did not stop, continuing to reach his ears.
"Your Highness Prince has a body of gold; if something were to go wrong because of this, would I, Tianyu, not feel guilty for a lifetime?"
Hearing this, he frowned and glanced at Tianyu.
Seeing that Tianyu's expression was full of guilt and sincerity, it did not seem fake.
The resentment in his heart dissipated a little.
He shook his head coldly, "I am fine."
After speaking, he struggled to sit up and looked at Lianyin with a concerned expression, "Lianyin, how are you?"
Lianyin glanced at him indifferently, "You had better worry about yourself first."
Mingchen's expression faltered, he smiled awkwardly, and looked at Biyan'er, "Fairy Bi, you..."
"It has nothing to do with you."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was met with a cold voice from Biyan'er.
His expression immediately became even more awkward.
How had these two suddenly become so irritable?
He did not seem to have provoked them, right?
Being treated like this by two great beauties made Mingchen feel very embarrassed and frustrated.
Yet he dared not vent the anger in his heart toward the two women.
Just then, he looked at Tianyu, who was still watching him with a face full of concern.
It was as if he had found a vent.
His face darkened, and he coldly reprimanded, "I have already told you, I am fine. Why are you still standing there? Why don't you get lost to the side?"
