Chapter 210: Chapter 208: On the Verge "What did you say!" Instantly, Ruan Tiasheng burst into a rage, furiously bellowing, questioning Ye Feng. The majesty of a king erupted; many spectators were so frightened that their faces turned exceedingly ugly. Zhou Yu, Tang Rui, Li Ling, and Huang Rui started to tremble with fear; Ye Feng had, in front of so many people, during the princess’s investiture ceremony, shown no respect for Prince Ruan and Ruan Xiaoyu, bluntly stating that they were not worthy. Thus, even if they were to strike down Ye Feng on the spot, it would be perfectly justifiable. "We’re doomed!" Zhou Yu and the others felt as though the sky was falling, completely sinking into despair. They greatly regretted, for the sake of a little face, following Ye Feng here. Now it seemed that coming along with Ye Feng was a journey to their deaths! However, Ye Feng remained at ease, looking at Ruan Tiasheng: "Today, I come to collect a debt, not to play the fool as Prince Consort. I, Ye Feng, am of Dragon Country, and will only marry a woman of Dragon Country. As for Ruan Xiaoyu, such a deceitful and faithless person, she is not worthy to be my woman. She doesn’t meet the qualifications!" "Impudent!" Housekeeper Hu exploded with rage: "Ye Feng, you must not insult our princess; you’re courting death!" "Insult?" Ye Feng sneered, looking at Ruan Xiaoyu: "Ruan Xiaoyu, what did you promise me before? That you would absolutely not disclose the resources of the Southern Border of Dragon Country. Yet, it wasn’t long before our Dragon Country’s resources were stolen!" Ruan Xiaoyu’s face turned very unsightly, but she quickly regained her composure. This was her turf, after all; no matter how formidable Ye Feng was, could he really turn the world upside down? Ruan Xiaoyu coldly said: "Ye Feng, I have no idea what you’re talking about. Please watch your language!" Ye Feng coldly smiled: "All right, you can deny it if you wish. Today, I won a trillion in prize money from the Prince Mansion’s arena. Now, I expect you to repay it immediately!" "A trillion in prize money!" Immediately, everyone in the audience was shocked; a trillion was definitely beyond what Prince Mansion could afford. After all, Dragon Country was a minor nation. Even a Prince could not be excessively wealthy, at most comparable to the foremost, top-tier wealthy families in Longdu. Hearing Ye Feng’s words, a murderous look flashed in Ruan Tiasheng’s eyes as he turned to another topic: "Ye Feng, I will ask you one last time. Marry my daughter; become the Prince Consort of my country. Are you willing or not?" "Ye Feng! Ye Feng! Please calm down!" Before Ye Feng could speak, Zhou Yu, Tang Rui, and Huang Rui all grabbed Ye Feng’s arm, pleadingly looking at him. "Ye Feng, think clearly before you answer. If you refuse, our lives are forfeit. Our lives and deaths are all in your hands!" Huang Rui was near tears, saying to Ye Feng. Zhou Yu was also anxious: "That’s right, Ye Feng, just agree to the Prince. After all, once you become Prince Consort and eventually inherit the throne, a trillion in assets will be yours. It’s all the same. Just agree!" Ruan Tiasheng looked at Ye Feng, squinting his eyes and said: "Your friends are correct. You better think carefully before you reply!" Ye Feng turned and said to Zhou Yu and the others: "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing." Relieved by Ye Feng’s words, they all let out a sigh of relief. Ruan Tiasheng looked at Ye Feng: "Speak, what’s your choice, to stay as Prince Consort, or to oppose us!" Ye Feng coldly smiled: "I’ve come today to collect a debt, not to enter into an alliance of marriage. I’ll say it one last time; to be Ye Feng’s woman, Ruan Xiaoyu does not qualify!" Ye Feng’s voice was deep and resonant, clearly echoing in everyone’s ears. Shocked, people stared at Ye Feng. "We’re finished, truly finished!" Zhou Yu, Huang Rui, and the others felt certain of their doom, their expressions incredibly grim. They had never expected that Ye Feng would still refuse and even provoke Ruan Tiasheng again. "Seeking death!" Ruan Tiasheng roared in fury, his eyes revealing a crazed glint and veins bulging on his forehead. "Whoosh!" As soon as his words fell, almost instantly, Ruan Tiasheng’s bodyguards drew their rifles. "Fire!" At the command. Dozens of rifles fired at once, sparks flying, a torrent of bullets rained towards Ye Feng and his companions like a storm. "Ratatatata~~" For a moment, gunfire resounded. Some even pulled out rocket launchers and aimed at Ye Feng and his company. "We’re dead!" Zhou Yu and the others closed their eyes, feeling that not even a Daluo Immortal descending from heaven could save them now. Gunfire continued to sound, and the explosions of rocket launchers thundered, shaking the world as smoke swirled and debris scattered. After a magazine was emptied, everyone thought Ye Feng and company were as good as dead. But Ruan Tiasheng wasn’t so naïve. He had anticipated that Ye Feng would refuse his proposal, and had set a trap in Sky Moon Square, confident in his ability to kill Ye Feng. At the entrance to Sky Moon Square, military trucks kept rolling in. In a short while, a thousand warriors arrived at Sky Moon Square, dispersing the surrounding crowd, everyone fleeing for fear of becoming collateral damage. As the smoke gradually dissipated, Zhou Yu and the others opened their eyes and were astonished to find themselves unharmed, still alive against all odds. They saw that in the place where they stood, Ye Feng had used True Essence to erect a massive True Essence barrier, protecting them. All the bullets were blocked by the True Essence barrier, and none of them had sustained the slightest injury. "It’s no wonder he can defeat Master Lee. Such ordinary firearms really can’t harm you. Good thing I came prepared!" Ruan Tiasheng shouted loudly. "This is!" Zhou Yu and the others had barely escaped death, but before they could even breathe a sigh of relief, they were surrounded by a thousand warriors! "We’re done for!" Zhou Yu and the others were close to crying. Against a thousand warriors, not even Ye Feng, no matter how powerful, could possibly hold out. Yet facing a thousand warriors, Ye Feng’s eyes remained calm, without a ripple of disturbance. Ruan Tiasheng sneered: "Ye Feng, even if you were a god from the heavens, I’d slay you right here!" Ye Feng shook his head, without a hint of faltering: "Ruan Tiasheng, are you trying to go back on your word?" "Indeed! What of it? Who are you to challenge me? A petty figure—once I kill you, who would dare accuse me of reneging!" Ruan Tiasheng looked down on Ye Feng, not considering him a threat at all.
