Cultivation Goddess
Chapter 166
In honor of the prime minister, Fang Yin immediately turned her body and looked towards the prime minister with a gaze made as customary as possible.
On the other hand, Ling Ling was seen blushing while playing the end of her hair.
The atmosphere in the room momentarily became silent as the prime minister and Ling Ling were both looking forward to Fang Yin's reply.
After a moment of thought, Fang Yin finally found the answer that felt quite appropriate.
"Oh, Your Majesty. Marrying Princess Ling Ling is a huge boon to an ordinary person like me. However, I cannot accept it because I already have a wife in my hometown," Fang Yin revealed her reason for the prime minister to cancel her request.
"Is my daughter more valuable than your wife? Wouldn't you be able to stay here comfortably after marrying my daughter and then giving your wife the life she deserves. You can ask your servants to provide for their needs in exchange for your return" the prime minister explained.
"I'll think about it after Emperor Ning's birthday celebration was over. For the time being, I still want to focus on the fight I will be fighting." Fang Yin spoke as he continued to kneel and saluted the prime minister.
The prime minister was speechless thinking of finding a way for Fang Yin not to reject his request. According to him, if Fang Yin remained in the race, the chance for the prime minister to get him would be even thinner.
Seeing Fang Yin's ability when fighting with him earlier, the prime minister was sure that it wouldn't be difficult for Fang Yin to win the race.
"Yun Feng, you no longer need to take part in that race. I will ask Emperor Ning for permission to make you my personal bodyguard."
Fang Yin lowered his head not knowing what else to reason. After no longer hearing the objections from Fang Yin, the prime minister finally allowed Fang Yin to rest in his room.
With a gontai move Fang Yin left Ling Ling's villa. He paid no heed to the gazes of everyone who was outside Ling Ling's room that was now being used by the prime minister.
Everything that happened tonight made Fang Yin unable to close her eyes. He walked back and forth in his room, occasionally holding his fist and ruffling his hair.
'Am I going to be stuck here? I've got what I want. After tonight I have to find a way to escape this place.' Fang Yin tried to calm down and subconsciously slept on the floor while leaning on the edge of his bed.
The prime minister was sincere with his words. Fang Yin was removed from the race list and became the prime minister's personal bodyguard. For others this might be something they dreamt of, but not for Fang Yin.
This was a big problem for him, which if not addressed immediately it would get bigger.
In addition to her coronation as the prime minister's personal bodyguard, Fang Yin and Ling Ling's marriage had been prepared by the prime minister's nuclear family.
'Ah, my head is throbbing. I must immediately find a way to get out of this place before the prime minister announces Ling Ling's wedding day.'
Fang Yin felt almost crazy thinking about the unexpected problem that had appeared outside of his plan.
The day Fang Yin continued to be in her room and did not answer the call of the maids to deliver food for her.
Until the day leading up to night, Fang Yin had only eaten once. He's determined to get out of that palace tonight.
He summoned two soldiers who were in his control. They came quietly to it as instructed by Fang Yin.
Apparently Fang Yin asked one of them to look like her. Others were asked to stand guard outside.
In the distance, there was the sound of several women talking.
'Wawat! It must be Ling Ling's voice heading this way. Must have been her lady-in-waiting reporting to her if I hadn't eaten since noon.'
The two bodyguards who were still in his influence listened to whatever Fang Yin had ordered.
Ling Ling's voice sounded closer and closer, it was too late to leave for a while then everything would fail. Fang Yin immediately jumped out of the roof of his room and then closed it again.
With the dragon's breath getting perfect, not a single person could sniff Fang Yin's footsteps.
Fang Yin managed to get away from the prime minister's residence and find a safe passage from the tight guard of the soldiers.
Armed with his memories of the past, little did he know where he should step. To be able to exit the palace safely, Fang Yin had to pass through the emergency exit that was beside the palace. There the guard is not as tight as elsewhere because not many know.
There were five soldiers standing guard on the inside of the palace around that door. It was likely that outside the palace walls there were also soldiers standing guard. However, it was nothing to worry about him.
In order to incapacitate the five guards that were inside, Fang Yin chose to use a poisonous needle.
In one throw, five poisonous needles had been stuck in the bodies of the five soldiers. They collapse simultaneously.
Fang Yin smiled grinningly seeing how easily he had crippled the guard.
Before anyone realized their death, Fang Yin immediately took out a leaf crystal artifact then left from there at high speed.
There was nothing the guards could do outside the walls because Fang Yin had already darted out quickly and disappeared in the darkness of the night.
There was no definite goal for Fang Yin after this. He decided to find a safe place first to avoid the pursuit of the prime minister and his troops.
Fang Yin crossed a forest and saw some people camping there. That meant that the forest was a forest where the holding of a spirit beast hunting competition which was also part of Emperor Ning's birthday celebration.
'This is not a safe place, I have to find another place to hide.' Fang Yin rotated direction leaving the place before anyone noticed his presence.
After flying for a while in a direction forty-five degrees from the previous direction, Fang Yin found a village. In the village there are only a few houses with conditions that are far from the word habitable.
There was nowhere else he could meet in such a short period of time. At least in this place he can hitchhike to rest tonight.
Fang Yin walked up to a hut that was at the closest distance to him.
"Good night! I'm lost, can I ask for help" Fang Yin said, hoping to get an answer from the owner of the cabin soon.
