Chapter 1135: Lies!
Dou Heping and the others’ hearts instantly sank with a thump.
They were finished. They had previously even banded together to snatch the crown prince consort’s phoenix egg.
When they were attacking, how would they have expected that the crown prince, this fellow who treated his wife like his life, would rush over to the Mystic Beast Forest from the Mo Kingdom capital without rhyme or reason?
The crown prince’s presence was so overpowering that they dared not go against him a whit, nor did they dare inform him of the details either.
Seeing that no one uttered a word and that everyone had shifty gazes, the unease in Crown Prince Mo’s heart grew even more intense.
“Could it be that you people ganged together to bully the crown prince consort?” With this statement, Crown Prince Mo’s might surfaced bit by bit, as if about to erupt in the next moment.
“No, no such thing. How would we dare.” Dou Heping quickly sent a look to a disciple next to him.
The latter stepped up subserviently and whispered with the volume of a mosquito, “Y-Your Highness, w-we have not s-seen the crown prince consort.”
At this, Crown Prince Mo’s deep and cold gaze landed on him as if he were looking at a dead man.
This terrifying gaze caused that disciple who spoke to start shaking uncontrollably.
An extremely powerful might then spread out like an icy mist, pressing down on everyone present like a mountain.
Even Siming Manor’s high priest felt like he would stop breathing, and he stared in disbelief at that tall man who was as elegant as jade and upright like bamboo.
Such a powerful divine conscious oppression…
Before him, it was like everyone was just a group of ants that simply couldn’t raise their heads.
Everyone immediately broke out in cold sweat, while some people with weaker cultivations were crushed down into groveling on the ground by this horrifying might.
“You dare tell lies in front of Us?” Without anyone seeing how he moved, the crown prince had already arrived next to that disciple in a breath. He picked him up and clutched his neck, causing his cervical vertebrae to make threatening cracking sounds.
The Dou Clan disciples’ eyes bulged as they widened their mouths and gasped deeply.
Dou Heping’s pupils also contracted.
On the side, Second Young Sir Dou clenched his fists. He resolutely resisted this might, and with every step he took forward, he felt the pressure on his body increase.
It seemed like it wanted to crush him completely.
After finally walking up to Crown Prince Mo with much difficulty while holding his breath, Second Young Sir Dou bowed stiffly. “Please do not get angry, Your Highness. This disciple does not know the crown prince consort, so it is pardonable that he does not know the details.”
“Actually, the crown prince consort just passed by here earlier. If Your Highness goes after her now, you should be able to make it,” explained Second Young Sir Dou strenuously as he withstood the crown prince’s might.
“Where?” Crown Prince Mo’s pitch-black phoenix eyes instantly brightened.
He did not know what kind of accident had happened to Qiaoqiao, nor did she contact him through the jade talisman. He could only sense her faintly discernible presence, yet it was difficult for him to grasp her specific location.
His heart felt a deep unease.
He shouldn’t have let her come to this Mystic Beast Forest by herself!
“The crown prince consort walked in that direction.” Second Dou indicated a direction with his finger.
Immediately afterwards. Crown Prince Mo moved toward the depths of the forest with a whoosh.
Second Young Sir Dou’s pupils contracted uncontrollably at his brisk speed. He then hastily mentioned, “Your Highness, please be careful. The crown prince consort seemed to have succumbed to vital energy deviation…”
Crown Prince Mo halted in shock. “Guards.”
*Swish, swish, swish.* Several thousand figures swiftly landed around him in an instant.
