Everyone in the world believed Old Man Xu was the Valley Master of Medicine Valley, and there was never a shortage of people trying to curry favor with him.
With many eyes and ears at the banquet, it was inevitable that some would try to flatter him.
Old Man Xu had to deal with them.
Regarding this, Old Man Xu dismissively waved his sleeve, his eyes showing a hint of amusement, "What's so difficult about dealing with them? We can't let trivial matters cause us to miss out on the excitement."
As the simple words reached her ears, Feng Ninghe subtly raised an eyebrow but said nothing more.
After Feng Tongtong escorted the First Prince out of the manor, she returned to her room.
Baili Ye, filled with rage, sat in the carriage.
How dare a mere small beast look down on him!
Last time, this foolish beast had even eaten his precious Longevity Pill!
If he ever had the chance, he would surely flay this foolish beast into a thousand pieces to avenge his deep resentment!
He couldn't lay a hand on Feng Ninghe, but dealing with a foolish beast was certainly not an issue.
On the bustling street, a small figure was weaving through the crowd.
Si Xin Xin blinked her bright eyes, skipping and hopping, the two small pigtails on her head bobbing with each jump. Her tender little hands were tightly clutching a candied hawthorn.
Whoa!
A carriage sped past, whisking by her side and hurtling towards her small body.
She quickly dodged, narrowly regaining her balance, but the candied hawthorn in her hand fell to the ground.
"What's going on!"
Baili Ye, who was already in a fit of anger inside the carriage, was almost thrown out by a sudden jolt.
This only made him angrier.
Was today an inauspicious day for travel?
The guard driving the carriage trembled, stammering slightly, "Your Highness, a child suddenly appeared in front of us and nearly collided with the carriage."
"A child?"
These simple words successfully captured Baili Ye's attention.
His brows shot up, and he lifted the carriage curtain, casting his gaze outside.
Si Xin Xin was mournfully staring at the candied hawthorn, which she had only taken one bite of before it lay on the ground, pouting with a wronged expression.
This was something she had waited a long time to buy...
If she went to buy another one, it would delay her meeting with the pretty sister.
"What child dares to run into my carriage?"
Baili Ye leaped out of the carriage, quickly moving away, and coldly stared at the small figure before him.
He was the First Prince of Li Kingdom. Not only had he been trampled on by a foolish beast today, but now even a three-year-old child dared to bully him?
Baili Ye unleashed his full aura, his face contorted with rage, and a long whip appeared in his hand.
"You child, seeing me, are so impolite, and you don't even know how to bow?"
He let out a muffled grunt and swung the whip in his hand ferociously towards Si Xin Xin.
He poured all his strength into this whip.
When the whip fell, this brat would be dead or crippled.
Si Xin Xin, startled, quickly dodged.
Where did this bad uncle come from, wanting to attack her without a word?
This whip did not touch Si Xin Xin's sleeve, let alone strike her.
"She actually dodged?"
Baili Ye raised his eyebrows in surprise, his stern eyes locked onto the small figure before him.
Si Xin Xin was patting her chest to calm her breathing, secretly feeling fortunate.
Fortunately, her father had forced her to practice diligently.
Although she was young, she had many trump cards and wouldn't be stifled to death by an unknown whip.
Baili Ye's eyes burned with fierce flames, and he swung another whip fiercely towards Si Xin Xin.
Before him was a mere child who hadn't even fully grown, and yet she dared to ride on his head!
If the world knew that the dignified First Prince couldn't even deal with a child, he would lose all face.
Baili Ye's whips became fiercer with each strike.
This also made Si Xin Xin's evasions increasingly difficult.
She anxiously watched the whip about to lash at her, contemplating what to do.
This bad uncle was babbling incessantly, clearly determined to beat her to a pulp.
If she used her trump cards, her identity would be exposed.
Her father wore a mask and put away his signature weapon, all to avoid being recognized.
Just as she was feeling extremely distressed, a figure rushed past her.
The woman suddenly reached out and grabbed the whip, giving a strong pull that sent Baili Ye flying.
Baili Ye was thrown ten meters away, crashing heavily to the ground!
"Who dares to attack me, the First Prince!"
Baili Ye's internal organs felt like they were shattering from the pain. His entire body collapsed powerlessly on the ground, stars swimming before his eyes.
He forced himself to overcome his discomfort, and with the help of his guards, he staggered to his feet, his gaze falling upon the two figures, one large and one small, not far away.
"Pretty sister!"
Si Xin Xin's bright, grape-like eyes shone, as if seeing hope.
Feng Ninghe stood firmly in front of Si Xin Xin, casting a cold glance at Baili Ye, "You, an old man, have no shame, attacking a child. It's a disgrace to be a prince."
"Feng Ninghe?"
Seeing that the woman before him was Feng Ninghe, Baili Ye's expression became complicated.
If he were to attack this woman, he would have no chance of winning, and he might be the one to suffer.
However, this child had offended him, and if he did nothing, others might think he, the First Prince, was easily bullied.
Baili Ye's eyes flickered, his gaze fixed on Feng Ninghe, "This little brat offended me. I am the First Prince, and her rudeness must be apologized for!"
Si Xin Xin's small hands were tightly gripping Feng Ninghe's sleeve, her bright eyes showing a hint of contemplation.
This bad person was clearly the pretty sister's defeated opponent, yet he dared to be so presumptuous.
Did he want to be beaten?
Feng Ninghe seemed to hear a joke. She raised her exquisitely shaped eyebrows, a slight smile on her lips, and tilted her head to look at Baili Ye, "A dignified prince is so petty, quibbling with a child. It's truly embarrassing for the royal family to have a prince like you."
The slightly mocking female voice successfully enraged Baili Ye.
He picked up the whip that had fallen to the ground, his eyes filled with threat, "Feng Ninghe, what did you say?"
"Am I not speaking the truth? Aren't you currently quibbling with a child? It's utterly shameful."
Feng Ninghe sneered, her eyes filled with intense disdain.
Xiao Zhao rolled onto its white belly, its round body swaying, sticking out its tongue and rolling its eyes at Baili Ye.
Tsk!
The First Prince's skin is so thick!
Such a big grown man, still quibbling with a child, even resorting to violence, he's a disgrace.
Si Xin Xin listened and nodded her little head vigorously, "Pretty sister is right, I didn't offend him! I was walking properly, and he knocked my candied hawthorn down, and then he wanted to attack me!"
Si Xin Xin seemed to remember something and shouted at the top of her lungs, "Everyone, come quickly! The First Prince is bullying a child!"
She used her spiritual power, and her voice carried far and wide.
There were already many cultivators gathered around, and with her shout, even more people came to watch.
In just a moment, the surroundings were filled with cultivators.
"A dignified prince actually attacks a defenseless child! This child probably can't even cultivate yet, right?"
"I can't believe the First Prince, who looks so distinguished, is actually a hypocrite who does so many immoral things in private, and now he wants to bully a child!"
As the murmurs reached his ears, Baili Ye's face turned a mixture of green and white.
