Chapter 345 The Greatest Mistake
With a booming sound, Lord Lin felt as if his head was no longer clear. ‘Granting the fairy to me? This must be a joke.’ Fairy Ning was elegant and pure, like a celestial being exiled to the mortal world. Even glancing at her was a sin. How could the Emperor grant her to him?
He looked towards Ning Yuxi, and saw the fairy’s face calm and peaceful. Her exceptionally beautiful cheeks adorned with a faint smile, she looked utterly composed, as if she hadn't heard the Emperor's words at all.
"Your Majesty, you must be jesting with me," Lin Wanrong chuckled, testing the waters. "This Fairy Ning, with her incomparable beauty and outstanding martial arts, is like a deity. Granting her to me, heh heh—" He leered, eyeing Fairy Ning up and down. Dressed in a white robe and gown, her figure perfectly poised, she resembled a pure and sacred white lotus flower.
Ning Yuxi glanced at him, seeing the lascivious gleam in his sly eyes, and snorted lightly without speaking.
"Hahaha—" the Emperor roared with laughter. "Grant the fairy to you? You surely dare to dream, young man. I may rule over the people of the world, but I do not rule over Fairy Ning."
"What did Your Majesty mean by what you said just now?" Lin Wanrong asked, puzzled.
The Emperor didn't answer his question but slowly handed over a gold medallion he had retrieved from Lord Lin to Ning Yuxi. Fairy Ning said calmly, "Have you considered it carefully? This is the last gold medallion, and the last of the three promises ‘Jade Virtue Fairy Hall’ made to you."
The Emperor gently caressed the gold medallion in his hand, a trace of longing in his eyes. "Twenty years. I have kept this last medallion all these years, and today it finally has a use." He turned his head and looked at Lin Wanrong, nodding, "Lin San, come here."
