Chapter 1361: Teaching Zither Music

Hearing Tianyu's reprimand, Wang Jianqiang hurriedly nodded in a servile manner.

"It is the truth, Your Highness the Prince, please calm your anger, I will withdraw at once."

As he spoke, he hurriedly retreated to the side.

Seeing this scene, even knowing that Wang Jianqiang was faking it, Lianyin could not help but frown.

Mingchen was clearly just taking his anger out on Wang Jianqiang!

On the other side.

Having endured for a long time, Biyan'er finally could not hold back, "Mingchen, what mistake did Daoist Friend Tianyu actually commit? Why must you target him like this?"

"He is a Cultivator of the Mermaid Clan; as the Merfolk Prince, you indeed have the authority to discipline him, but he is also my friend..."

"If you were reprimanding him normally, that would be fine, but I will absolutely not allow this groundless bullying."

"Mingchen, you have indeed gone a bit too far." Just as Biyan'er's voice fell, Lianyin also spoke up.

Hearing their cold tones, Mingchen's heart skipped a beat, and his expression suddenly became unsightly.

At this moment, he finally realized.

The reason these two had been so indignant in confronting him earlier was because of Tianyu.

And now.

It was for Tianyu again that they had actually spoken up to reprimand him!

That bastard Tianyu!

It would be one thing if he just had the dumb luck to stumble upon a great opportunity.

But for Lianyin and Biyan'er to actually side with him like this!

How could he occupy all the good things?

His expression shifted for a while, and for a long time, he was unable to speak.

Because what Biyan'er and Lianyin said was simply the truth; he had indeed been making things difficult for Tianyu just now.

But to make him admit his mistake to Tian Yu?

Absolutely impossible!

The atmosphere suddenly fell into a stalemate.

Just at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out, "Yan'er, Your Highness the Princess, the Prince is only in a bad mood because he is injured, please do not blame him, I am fine."

Hearing this voice, Lianyin looked at Tianyu, nodded, and did not speak.

"But..."

Biyan'er still wanted to say something, but Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head, "Yan'er, I am really fine."

Upon hearing this, Biyan'er finally nodded and said nothing more.

Seeing Tianyu take the initiative to speak up to resolve the situation for him, for some reason, the jealousy and hatred in Mingchen's heart toward Tianyu did not fade, but instead became even more intense.

However, in front of Lianyin and Biyan'er, he ultimately did not dare to say anything.

He let out a cold snort and stopped speaking.

Seeing Mingchen's reaction, a look of indignation appeared on Biyan'er's face once again.

Her figure flashed, and she appeared outside the cave entrance, "Daoist Friend Tianyu, come with me for a moment, I have a few words I wish to say to you."

Wang Jianqiang looked at Mingchen.

Mingchen seemed not to have noticed his gaze, closing his eyes and remaining silent.

Wang Jianqiang then looked at Lianyin, "Your Highness the Princess, I will go for a moment."

"Mm."

Lianyin did not think much of it and nodded.

Only, shortly after, she discovered something was wrong.

The time the two of them were gone seemed a bit long.

It was not until twenty days later that they returned to the cave.

When they returned, the injuries on Biyan'er's body had completely healed, and her aura had also returned to its peak.

Lianyin looked at the two of them, her gaze flickering.

This time...

It's a bit suspicious~

Thinking of this, she stood up and looked at Wang Jianqiang, "Tianyu, I have some matters to discuss with you, come with me."

After speaking, she walked toward the outside of the cave.

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, nodded to Biyan'er, and followed.

The two left the cave one after the other.

After the two left, Biyan'er gave Mingchen a faint glance, as if unwilling to see him, and her figure flashed, leaving the cave.

Noticing this scene, Mingchen's expression stiffened.

Afterward, his attention shifted back to Lianyin.

Why did Lianyin have to go behind her back to talk to Tianyu?

Could it be that she was speaking ill of him?

Thinking of this, he stood up, walked to the cave entrance, and looked outside.

He discovered that Lianyin and Tianyu had long since vanished.

It was not just the two of them; even Biyan'er, he did not know where she had gone.

"Damn it!"

He gritted his teeth fiercely, feeling a wave of frustration.

As the dignified King of the Mermaid Clan, no matter where he went in Huanling City, he was always the person who garnered the most attention; when had he ever been slighted like this?

That bastard Tianyu!

He cursed fiercely and returned to the mountain cave.

……

A corner of the mountain range.

In the dense forest, a light screen from an Array shrouded and isolated an area over ten zhang in diameter.

Inside the Array.

Lianyin looked at Wang Jianqiang with a smile, "Brother Qiang, you wouldn't happen to have some unspeakable secret with Fairy Bi, would you?"

Wang Jianqiang shrugged, "How is that possible? I, Wang Jianqiang, have always been an upright person; how could I have any unspeakable matters?"

Lianyin curled her lips, "Still making excuses... what about those twenty days? This timing is just too coincidental."

"You mean this matter."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "It's just as you think."

Lianyin sneered, "Then you still say you have no secrets hidden from me?"

"This isn't a secret, though."

Wang Jianqiang looked at Lianyin with an innocent face, "You didn't ask me; if you had asked me, I definitely would have told you."

"How can this be called a secret?"

Lianyin was stunned.

This matter... it really seemed to be the case.

Immediately after, she huffed, "I don't care, you cannot favor one over the other."

Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow and started to laugh, "Rest assured, how could Brother Qiang favor anyone over you?"

……

Twenty-one days later.

Wang Jianqiang and Biyan'er had just returned to the outside of the mountain cave.

A figure suddenly flashed out.

After Wang Jianqiang saw this figure, he was stunned, "Yan'er, why are you outside?"

Biyan'er curled her lips, "I didn't want to stay with certain narrow-minded people."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "Come in."

Saying this, he walked toward the mountain cave with Lianyin.

Lianyin walked by Wang Jianqiang's side, and she could clearly feel the gaze from Biyan'er behind her.

From the gaze mixed with a strange meaning from the other party, she immediately guessed that the other party had probably already learned of the relationship between her and Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang's time management was just too recognizable.

This was also a matter that couldn't be helped.

……

Inside the mountain cave.

Ever since Wang Jianqiang and Lianyin left, he had been guessing what the two of them would talk about.

When the time reached the second day after the two had left.

He had already become anxious.

He could not figure out why Lianyin would have so much to say to Tianyu.

By the third day, his hair had already been pulled into a mess by him, like a chicken coop.

By the fourth day, he had already started to let his imagination run wild.

In the days that followed, every day was spent in extreme torment.

Finally.

Just as he was tormented to the point of almost going crazy, Tianyu and Lianyin finally returned.

Seeing the two walk into the mountain cave, Mingchen rushed directly in front of them.

His gaze kept wandering over the two of them.

"Lianyin, what exactly have you been doing during this time?"

"Why did you leave for such a long time?"

Lianyin frowned, "This has nothing to do with you."

"How could it have nothing to do with me?"

Mingchen's eyes were bloodshot, "I am the Prince of the Mermaid Clan and your destined other half; I have the right to know about your affairs."

Lianyin's expression turned cold, and she was just about to say something.

Wang Jianqiang suddenly spoke up, "Your Highness the Prince, please calm your anger. Princess called me away, actually to teach me some Qin Music Technique."

Mingchen was stunned, his eyes filled with obvious suspicion, "Teaching Qin Music Technique?"

Wang Jianqiang nodded with a very serious face, "That's right, it is teaching Qin Music Technique, and Princess taught it very earnestly."

"She demonstrated every note for me many times, which is why it took such a long time."
