Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Shall We Fall in Love Now That the Crisis Is Over?

Ye Xingguang looked at the cowardly figure, not knowing which prestigious family’s young master he might be. Dressed up to the nines, yet so feeble in spirit!

If panic spreads because of him, Xiao Mo, who stood up for her today, might just become the sacrificial lamb offered up by the crowd. That was something Ye Xingguang would never allow to happen!

Her face turned stern, and she issued an order: "Xiao Yun, drag this coward away. Anyone else who dares to speak such feeble words about begging for mercy from the rebels will be executed on the spot!"

Standing next to Fu Zhuo, Xiao Yun did not utter another word but dragged the fearful young man away.

However, this did nothing to calm the hearts of the guests present, let alone appease the distress of over ten million people living in the Imperial City!

Cao Jianyu stood up, his voice finally regaining some confidence: "Your Highness, the Queen, the situation has been provoked by Mo Yinhe. Are you really willing to sacrifice over ten million citizens of the Imperial City for the troubles your son has caused? How can we follow Your Highness, a Queen who disregards the safety of her people?"

Ye Xingguang sneered: "If I were to comply under pressure from any rebellious force that approaches, allowing them to achieve their goals, then I don’t deserve to have you Kings follow me, do I? Is that how you rule your dominion, King Cao? Surrendering to every demand as soon as terrorists surround your Diat principalities? Indeed, you’d make quite the ruler."

Cao Jianyu was at a loss for words.

Ye Xingguang’s gaze swept across the room, becoming increasingly sharp: "Which of you Kings here runs their dominions like King Cao?"

That would be utterly pathetic!

The other Kings, of course, would not admit to that. However, who wouldn’t have a flicker of unease inside? If Ye Tianfan were pushed to his limits, a few torpedoes fired directly at the Empire Palace would see them unjustly slain.

Qin Zhenxin, a true supporter of Ye Xingguang from the principalities of Buldis, stood up and said, "Please, Your Highness, devise a strategic response soon. We will certainly follow you in whatever steps you take."

Fu Zhuo stood beside Ye Xingguang, in a state of utter distress. Little Starlight was practically a commander without troops here, and now with over a hundred military submarines glaring menacingly, even Fu Zhuo could not think of a solution. What could Little Starlight possibly come up with?

Outside the hall, Xiao Yun and Huo Liuli stood together, both looking up at the sky above the Empire.

As expected, they could see many military vessels menacingly stationed in the water. On their own, they might handle it, but against such a fleet, both Xiao Yun and Huo Liuli were at a loss.

Xiao Yun said, "If things truly spiral out of control, we must ensure Miss Ye’s absolute safety."

Huo Liuli flicked her neat short hair, "You stay here to protect the master, I’ll go call for the preparation of a small submarine, ready to evacuate at any moment. This place isn’t something our master can withstand alone."

The war felt imminent, leaving no time for either of them to dwell on past romantic entanglements. Huo Liuli took a few steps and then suddenly turned back, giving Xiao Yun a glance: "You take care of yourself, kid."

"Worried about me?" Xiao Yun suddenly flashed a dangerously charming smile.

Huo Liuli snorted without a word and walked away with a stride that was both cold and awesome.

Xiao Yun watched her awe-inspiring departure and called out, "If we get past this crisis, how about you agree to grant me your hand in thanks for saving your life?"

He vividly remembered the time she had saved his life in the tunnel, but unfortunately, Huo Liuli had only thrown him a powerful, enrapturing back view without responding to any of his words.

Fearless of death, Xiao Yun continued, "If you’re silent, I’ll take it as your consent?"
