Ye Lingtian remained unmoved. He glanced at them coldly and said, "Don't worry! I've shown mercy. This move won't kill you. It will only itch for another half an hour. Just enjoy it..."

Half an hour! Hearing this, the servants felt a little relieved! However, the itching all over their bodies was still difficult to control, so they had to continue scratching. Soon, some of them couldn't help but scratch their skin, and bloodstains covered their bodies!

Mu Nianci stepped forward and said, "Young Master! You injured the prince of the Jin Kingdom, and there are so many servants and subordinates. They will not let you go, so you'd better leave here as soon as possible..."

Ye Lingtian turned around and was about to speak when Yang Tiexin also walked over and echoed, "Yes! This is the capital of the Jin Kingdom. The person you injured wasn't just an ordinary dignitary, but a prince of the royal family. I don't think the Jin prince will let you off easily. I advise you to retreat as soon as possible to avoid any disaster..."

Huang Rong was also worried, thinking, "This isn't the Central Plains, it's the territory of the Great Jin. There are Jin people everywhere, and we Han people are isolated and helpless here! Big Brother Ye injured that man, and he's a prince. If that man's father, the prince, finds out, he'll definitely send more people to hunt Big Brother Ye down. Then, there'll be no escape! It would be better to leave here early and return to the Central Plains. The sky is high and the sea is vast, and the territory is vast. Even the Jin prince can't do anything to us. If all else fails, you can go out to sea with me, cross the reef, and go to Peach Blossom Island..."

So he pulled Ye Lingtian's hand and said softly, "Brother Ye! They are right! I think it would be better for us to leave early to avoid getting into trouble..."

Ye Lingtian smiled faintly at everyone, waved his hand and said, "It's okay! A mere prince of the Jin Kingdom can't do anything to me..."

When Ye Lingtian said this, Huang Rong and the other guests around were stunned!

What does it mean to be a mere prince of the Jin Kingdom? Can a prince be called a mere prince?

The Jin Kingdom is a powerful nation on par with the Song Kingdom. It has a vast territory and a large population! In terms of national strength, it is even more powerful than the Song Dynasty!

The Prince of the Jin Kingdom, however, held the highest position of honor under the Jin Khan, second only to the Emperor. He was truly second only to the Emperor, above all others! He could establish his own government office and staff, and he had countless retainers, many of whom were both resourceful and brave. Even the Five Greatest Masters of the time would not easily provoke such a secular noble!

But this Jin Kingdom prince seemed like an ant to Ye Lingtian. He even used the word "insignificant" to describe him. It was really surprising and astonishing...

The people around began to talk.

Some people whispered to each other, "This fellow is completely unaware of the impending disaster. Prince Jin's Palace isn't for anyone to mess with. When the prince sends his troops, no matter if you're a martial arts master or a royal relative, you'll be forced to surrender before the overwhelming might of his troops!"

As he spoke, he glanced at Huang Rong and Mu Nianci standing beside Ye Lingtian, shook his head, and added, "It's a pity that these two beautiful girls have been involved with this man. Under the prince's wrath, they are bound to perish..."

Someone nearby nodded in agreement and said, "From the way these people speak, I know they're not from Kyoto. They don't understand the might of our Great Jin army. Our Great Jin cavalry is capable of crushing the Southern Song Dynasty to a pulp! Once that armor is pierced and the cavalry charges forward, even if you're a martial arts expert, you'll be trampled into a pulp..."

Ye Lingtian refused to listen to the advice, which made Yang Tiexin very troubled!

Yang Tiexin sighed inwardly, "Looking at this young man's youth, he's probably a novice, ignorant of the immensity of the world! How can we take the majesty of a king lightly? People like us in the martial arts world, even if we meet the county magistrate, we have to be prepared to face him and avoid being surrounded by county soldiers! And this prince is far superior to the county magistrate, his power is hard to resist. For now, I can only find a way to leave..."

Then he bowed to Ye Lingtian and said, "Please forgive me, sir. Now that things have come to this, my father and I are both wanderers in the martial arts world and dare not make enemies with the royal family. We can only take our leave now! I only hope that you are safe and we will meet again in the future..."

He looked at Mu Nianci and nodded slightly, indicating that she should leave with him.

But Mu Nianci seemed oblivious to Yang Tiexin's gesture. She simply pursed her lips and looked at Ye Lingtian, saying, "In a martial arts competition, injuries are inevitable. Besides, this competition was also agreed to by the prince of the palace. Now that I am inferior in skill and have suffered some injuries, how can I blame you? If the prince of the Great Jin is sensible, he will not take this matter to heart. Otherwise, wouldn't he be laughed at by the heroes of the world?"

Then he looked at Yang Tiexin and said, "I know you're worried about being retaliated against, but I see this young master is calm and composed, so I think he's got something on his mind! Besides, you came here to look for someone. If you haven't found them yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

There was another thing Mu Nianci didn't say. That was Yang Tiexin's promise to help her find a good husband. Now that good husband was right before her, if she left, she wouldn't know when she would see Ye Lingtian again...

The road ahead is long, it’s hard to meet again…

So, she wanted to seize this opportunity and stay with Ye Lingtian!

Because Yang Tiexin was worried and was a rough guy, he didn't observe Ye Lingtian carefully enough!

But from her perspective, she could keenly perceive Ye Lingtian's extraordinary qualities. His ability to condense dozens of ice talismans in an instant was truly unparalleled! She had only ever witnessed such power in one person! That was the Northern Beggar Hong Qigong, with whom she had a semi-master-disciple relationship!

When she was thirteen years old, Hong Qigong praised her for rescuing two Beggar Gang disciples and taught her a set of boxing called Xiaoyaoyou!

It was then that she witnessed the other party's miraculous skills with her own eyes!

As time went by, Yang Tiexin might have forgotten about this matter, but she still remembered it clearly!

Now, when comparing Ye Lingtian and Hong Qigong, I suddenly discovered that they actually have many similarities, such as their calm temperament, confident demeanor, and the faint dragon roar that was heard when they defeated Yang Kang!

Mu Nianci couldn't help but speculate in her heart: "Perhaps this young man is the same as me, the successor of Elder Hong..."

Thinking of this, Mu Nianci's decision to stay with Ye Lingtian became even more resolute! Perhaps she could even learn about Elder Hong's news through Ye Lingtian...

Yang Tiexin stuck his iron spear into the ground, sighed slightly, and said, "I heard that King Jin had news of an old friend, so I rushed here specially! But I didn't expect to encounter such a thing. What can I do..."

If it wasn't necessary, he naturally didn't want to miss the opportunity to find Bao Xiruo. After asking around for a long time, he finally heard that there seemed to be a beautiful woman named Bao in the capital of the Jin Dynasty. With expectations in his heart, he led Mu Nianci through seven twists and turns before coming here, just to find his beloved wife!

Now that the martial arts competition to win a bride had injured the Crown Prince of Jin, it would be difficult for him to find her safely. However, he was reluctant to leave just like that...
