Chapter 46.2: It"s Been a Long Time
Qing Ye Li knitted up his brows, seemingly unable to recall that he knew this young lady before him. But before he could finish wondering, he heard the young lady say softly: "Eight years ago, in the back mountains behind the Faint Mist Sect, you were injured."
Once those words came out, Qing Ye Li was immediately able to recall.
He had suffered a backlash when he was ambushed by a surprise attack at the most critical period when he was undergoing a breakthrough into the next level in his cultivation and he had unconsciously stumbled in a barrier array. It was a little girl who led him out of it and settled him in a remote little hut within the mountains to recuperate. He had stayed there for a period of about four to five days and left once he recovered from his injuries.
Qing Ye Li"s attention then came back out from his thought, his dark green eyes looking at the young lady with a measuring gaze. "It was you?"
"That was me." Yan Ning Luo nodded and smiled.
"So, the Duke of Vast Seas and Little Ning….. are already acquainted?" The Green Wave Emperor watched from above for quite a while, before he finally spoke.
"Many years ago, I was injured from an ambush and it was all thanks to the helping hand Princess Ning Feng extended to me I was fine." Qing Ye Li said expressionlessly.
"Oh? Is that so? Why has Little Ning never mentioned that you are acquainted with the Duke of Vast Seas?" The Green Wave Emperor feigned displeasure, but his eyes were filled with joy. He would never have thought that the la.s.s would be acquainted with the Duke of Vast Seas and that she would have saved his life before.
Yan Ning Luo smiled faintly. "I did not do anything much and I don"t think I had helped all that much. I had not known that he was the Duke of Vast Seas back then as he had merely told me his name, and had not stated his ident.i.ty."
"So I see." The Green Wave Emperor nodded in understanding, but he was already having some other thoughts in his heart.
The Duke of Vast Seas as a person, had a cold personality and was adverse to kindly human relations, keeping people far distant, also well known to be cold blooded and cruel. For many years, besides the Ninth Princess Yue Xin Yan, there didn"t seem to be any other lady who had dared to come close to him. Regardless of the fact that he was highly worshipped and revered, his b.l.o.o.d.y and brutal ways made people both love and fear him at the same time.
But Little Ning had been able to address him directly by name, and was not afraid to speak to him in a calm and composed manner, so it was thought that the relationship between them was definitely not just common acquaintance.
It would seem that he would be able to make good use of that.
Yue Xin Yan then finally managed to be able to react. "To think that Big Brother Ye Li actually knows Princess Ning Feng! I had not heard you mention about it before!"
Qing Ye Li did not say anything, but it was Yan Ning Luo who spoke: "I was just a little girl back then, and often remains within the Faint Mist Sect. How could he possibly know who I was?"
"That"s true." Yue Xin Yan smiled and nodded. "But it"s great that you know each other. I heard that the Green Wave Kingdom"s All Saints" Day is happening very soon, and I am looking forward to it very much. It will surely be filled with all kinds of activities and full of fun!"
"Mm. If you do not mind, I can bring you guys around the Green Wave Kingdom in the next few days for you to enjoy yourselves thoroughly, to get a feel of the local flavours and customs." Yan Ning Luo had probably smiled less in the past ten years than she had tonight, showing a fittingly generous smile on her face throughout. Compared to the aloof image of a cold beauty in the past, she was exceptionally a lot more approachable tonight.
Everyone in the crowd could not help but whisper under their breath. [What could have come over Princess Ning Feng tonight? Always cold and indifferent and suddenly turning to become so warm and gentle, it was really quite hard to get used to it.]
Xuanyuan Che"s gaze was tinted with a tinge of irony. [Ah, he had thought that the woman was born with that cold and icy expression. So it was only because she had merely not met the right person yet. But what he had never come to expect was that the person she liked was actually the Duke of Vast Seas. That man did indeed possess the capital to make women go mad over him, but for the foolish woman Yan Ning Luo to fall in love with such a heartless man, she was destined to have to suffer.]
