735: Separation, the dangerous position of left prime minister

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh~"

Under the dim sky, the branches and leaves in the forest rustled loudly with the wind.

On the dimly lit forest path, in front of Lin Yun, that stunning figure was like the focal point of everything in the World, adding a heavy weight to this unremarkable forest!

"Why are you running?" Kongtong Frost Snow looked at the man in front of her, her tone usually cold towards everyone, now subtly softening.

Lin Yun clenched his fists slightly, remaining silent for a long time before saying, "I don't like it, so I ran."

"Don't like it?" Hearing this answer, Kongtong Frost Snow felt a sense of emptiness in her heart, her expression unchanged: "Where did I make you dislike me?"

The woman's words were a little slow.

The tone of inquiry in her words, if it were said by the Empress.

No one in the entire World would believe it!

Such a way of speaking could be from any woman in the world, but it was absolutely impossible for that Kongtong Empress who stood above all beings!

"Not liking is not hating." Lin Yun finished speaking, glanced at the impending storm, and took a deep breath, saying, "It's just that we are not suitable."

"For the position of the Prince, anyone is more suitable than me, and can do better than me."

"No! In the entire World, only you can become my Husband! Only you!" Kongtong Frost Snow's tone was serious, laced with a subtle hint of panic, as if she was afraid the person in front of her would leave.

Lin Yun was silent.

"Come back with me." Kongtong Frost Snow's red lips slightly parted, her beautiful face showing seriousness.

Hearing these words, Lin Yun silently shook his head.

He slowly walked past the woman, a faint, familiar fragrance making Lin Yun feel a sense of déjà vu.

However, remembering his experiences in his previous life, his steps became even more resolute.

"Lin Yun! Don't force me to tie you back!" As the two passed each other, Kongtong Frost Snow's tone began to harden.

In response, Lin Yun showed a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, as the strongest person in the World, you can naturally do anything you want."

"Making it so no woman dares to approach me, tying me back, imprisoning me in the Imperial Palace of the Phoenix Feather Dynasty, for ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years!"

"As long as Your Majesty has a thought, it can naturally be done."

"I am just an ordinary Cultivator, what ability do I have to change Your Majesty's decision?"

Having finished speaking, Lin Yun's steps did not falter.

And standing in place, Kongtong Frost Snow's previously hardened expression seemed to suddenly collapse.

Listening to the man's words, the thing she was most afraid to face and the intense guilt made her face slightly pale as she stood stunned in place.

"Imprisonment? How could he know about this..."

"Rumble rumble~"

Within the dense dark clouds, bursts of thunder erupted.

On the forest path, the two passed each other, and as the man walked further away, the distance between them grew wider and wider...

But Kongtong Frost Snow, standing in place, did not reach out to stop him.

Feeling the other party's aura moving away, the woman standing alone in the forest became increasingly pale.

"Pfft!"

The intense emotional fluctuation directly aggravated the injuries she had sustained in the Demon Domain!

A mouthful of blood spurted from Kongtong Frost Snow's mouth... causing her to sway.

"Pat pat pat pat!"

Large raindrops began to fall, and almost instantly, the rain turned into a downpour, pouring down upon this Heaven and Earth!

The rain washed away the blood she had spat out, but it deepened the paleness on her face.

A short while later.

The heavy rain grew heavier.

And hundreds of powerful Cultivators sped towards them.

This was the wedding party chasing Lin Yun.

Relying on secret techniques, their direction was not wrong, but the hope of catching up was slim.

Just as Cao Gonggong and the surrounding officials were thinking this, they suddenly saw that extremely striking figure in the distance within the forest!

The hearts of the chasing crowd tightened, and they quickly rushed towards that area.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Everyone bowed in salute.

Seeing that the Empress had not even used a spiritual energy shield to block the rain in this heavy rain, these officials did not dare to do so either.

They all consciously removed their rain-blocking spiritual energy shields, and the heavy rain soaked everyone.

"Your Majesty... We have failed in our duty, we did not keep the Prince!" Cao Gonggong replied with some fear.

The rainwater streaming down his face was mixed with nervous sweat.

The others also knelt down with their heads bowed.

The entire forest was enveloped in a heavy and oppressive atmosphere, and countless wild beasts in the mountains fled in fear.

Kongtong Frost Snow did not say a word.

Her eyes slowly closed.

When she opened them again, there was a hint of sorrow in her eyes: "Return to the palace."

... ...

Several hours passed in a flash.

A piece of news that spread without being announced made everyone on the entire Five Spirits Continent feel a sense of disbelief, as if it were unreal.

The Prince was confirmed.

It was Lin Yun, one of the Core Disciples of the Dan Sect!

Originally, everyone felt emotions of envy, jealousy, and hatred towards this Lin Yun.

To actually be able to marry Kongtong Frost Snow, this Empress, was simply like saving the Phoenix Feather Dynasty in his previous life!

But.

Things took a dramatic turn!

Lin Yun, the man who was about to become the Husband of the Kongtong Empress, actually chose to run away the moment he learned about this good fortune!

He ran away in front of all the powerful individuals in the Imperial Palace!

The key was, he actually managed to escape successfully!

Such news felt extremely unreal.

You are about to marry the most outstanding woman in the World, such a great thing, and you actually just ran away? Are you kidding me?!

The discussion about this matter among various forces was extremely heated.

Similarly.

At this moment, in the palace of the Phoenix Feather Dynasty, all the officials had also gathered in the imperial court because of this matter.

Imperial Palace Hall.

Kongtong Frost Snow had changed into clean robes and sat on the high seat that everyone looked up to.

Her expression had returned to its usual calmness and indifference.

As the ruler of this country, she did not have the right to show weakness or act like a little woman.

"Your Majesty! Lin Yun actually refused the marriage proposal and fled, this is simply disrespecting imperial authority, disrespecting our Phoenix Feather Dynasty, and looking down on Your Majesty!" Among the officials below, a first-rank official stood out, full of anger.

And beside this minister, the newly appointed Left Prime Minister also slowly walked out, his face full of seriousness: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, we should dispatch the strong individuals of the Imperial Palace to directly capture that Lin Yun and imprison him in the Heavenly Prison, or even kill him on the spot!"

"Only by doing so can we protect the national prestige of our Phoenix Feather Dynasty and avoid the ridicule of various external forces!"

The voice of the new Left Prime Minister was full of indignation.

Hearing these words, Kongtong Frost Snow slightly raised her eyes.

As her calm gaze swept down, many officials felt their hearts tighten and quickly lowered their heads.

"Left Prime Minister?" Kongtong Frost Snow suddenly spoke.

"Your Majesty, I am here!" The White-Haired Old Man quickly stepped forward.

"I want to ask, what do you think of the Sword Sect?"

"Sword Sect?" Hearing this question, the Left Prime Minister and many officials showed confusion.

Aren't we discussing matters related to Lin Yun and the Dan Sect right now? Why did it suddenly shift to the Sword Sect?

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Sword Sect is a top-tier Sect in our Five Spirits Continent, with countless strong individuals, and it can produce a large number of Heaven's Chosen for our Five Spirits Continent every year. I have always represented the Phoenix Feather Dynasty in exchanges and contacts with the Sword Sect, trading goods, and I understand that the Sword Sect is a very good righteous Sect!"

The Left Prime Minister reported truthfully.

"Is that so? But how did I learn that the Sword Sect has already started having contact with people from the Demon Sect Joyful Union Sect?" Kongtong Frost Snow rubbed her forehead, her tone calm.

However, her words caused the Left Prime Minister to suddenly freeze, looking bewildered.

"It seems the Left Prime Minister is unaware of this matter?" Kongtong Frost Snow slightly shook her head: "Among the ten thousand longswords containing the true meaning of the Sword Path that the Sword Sect sold to our Phoenix Feather Dynasty, there are a full 13 that contain Demon Path inheritances!"

"This matter, the Left Prime Minister has not even investigated?!"

"I..." The Left Prime Minister's heart panicked.

He had been in charge of this area for so many years that he no longer paid much attention to the specific items from the Sword Sect.

In his opinion, as a reputable righteous Sect, the weapons and goods provided by the Sword Sect were basically top-quality goods!

Checking them one by one was completely unnecessary.

And even if some were of lower quality, it didn't matter, they were all within acceptable limits.

But the Left Prime Minister never expected that what the Kongtong Empress was talking about was the Sword Sect having contact with the Demon Path.

Furthermore, in the product inspection process that he was responsible for, 13 longswords containing Demon Path inheritances had flowed in!
