Chapter 1497: Chapter 1319: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

Having said that, he gave Tian Xiaobei another meaningful look, which clearly suggested that Tian Xiaobei should take care.

Tian Xiaobei had no choice but to steel himself and approach the young prince, bowing once more, "I have seen the young prince."

The young prince obviously had nothing but disdain for Tian Xiaobei, not even deigning to give him a direct glance, "Tian Xiaobei, is it? What’s the matter, haven’t been playing with Yanyan recently?"

"Xiaobei is a student at the Medical Academy, naturally prioritizing his studies, not gallivanting about," Tian Xiaobei said.

"If you’re prioritizing your studies, then stop bothering Yanyan. I’m here this time only to warn you—should there be a next time, don’t blame me for breaking your legs and sending you rolling back to Guang Province!"

Tian Xiaobei shuddered with fear.

But he was a stubborn one, not easily intimidated. His fists clenched tightly, his eyebrows knotted in resolve.

Teach this young prince a lesson directly?

Forget it, no matter how unsatisfactory the young prince might be, he still had his attendants and family guards. What could a student of the Imperial Medical Institute do to fight them head-on? Such confrontation would only lead him into a predicament.

Could it be that he needed Pang Yanyan to stand up for him?

Seeing Tian Xiaobei remain silent, the young prince knew he had taken his warning to heart.

He stood up, looked down on Tian Xiaobei once more, and then said coldly, "I hope you’ll act wisely."

Tian Xiaobei watched the young prince leave, his chest burning with rage, yet he kept consoling himself: A gentleman’s revenge is not too late, even after ten years; it’s not too late!

...

Longya Gang.

Long Aixi sat in the living room, listening to her parents and the county magistrate discuss the escape of the flower thief.

The county magistrate said, "This matter is indeed very strange. The flower thief from Bei Shan was rescued without a trace, leaving no clues. We have searched for over ten days, even enlisting the help of neighboring magistrates to search, yet not a single clue has been found."

Long San spoke indifferently, "Our gang has also sent people out, still with no news. This matter involves Jianghu, and according to the poisoned condition of those constables, it seems to be the sorcery from a small country in the northwest. It’s extremely troublesome to try to capture them, and since Bei Shan is no longer committing crimes, let’s just let the matter rest."

...

Long Aixi listened for a while longer, then withdrew.

Bei Shan was a criminal she and Xia Dabao had captured together, in a process that saw them sharing an extremely boisterous and informal few days. Intimately close, and yet overwhelmingly joyful.

He went to the training grounds and happened to see Zhou Chang practicing staff. He also grabbed a staff from the weapon rack and called out, "Brother Zhou Chang, may I join you in practice?"

The sun was blazing that day, and Zhou Chang was shirtless, his body covered in sweat. But turning to see Long Aixi, dignified in white, he agreed, "Sure, I heard you’ve been out on an adventure recently, even caught a flower thief. Show me if your martial arts have improved!"

"You mustn’t go easy on me, otherwise, the test won’t be valid," Long Aixi said lightly, flashing a smile before he leaped into action, sparring with Zhou Chang.

...

In a county to the west, a youth in purple and another in black hurried on their way day and night.

The one in purple was none other than the flamboyant flower thief from Bei Shan, and his companion in black was the cold and stern Yun Xiao.

A little further, and they would enter a country to the west: The Southern Zhao Nation.
