[COMPLETE] Beauty Feng Vol. 1

Chapter 47: Veiled Fairy

Here's the chapter that was supposed to be for yesterday. I'm sorry I couldn't update. I'm currently busy with moving houses for the second time this year lmao and yes I'm moving during the holidays which makes it even worse but this is the only free time I have. Next update will be on Wed because I can't commit to do it daily this week. Gomen!

Feng Yanyan jumped away from Wangye as fast as he could.

"Ahem... I'm not gay or anything, I was just scared." He could hear shouts from the other boats as Danwan's elite special forces hounded the assailants.

"Gay?" Long Xu Le frowned.

"Uh... another word for a cutsleeve." He rubbed his nose, forgetting that word wasn't really used in this era.

"Don't fool around."

His chin was grabbed all of a sudden and his vision was filled with the image of Wan Li Wang's serious face.

Aiyooo, too close. Feng Yanyan feared his nose will bl–

"Why is your nose bleeding?" The King was puzzled. She was sure he wouldn't have internal injuries because she blocked all the arrows with her whip.

His face was also uninjured.

"This is nothing! Wangye, you said people will come." Feng Yanyan inched away from her while dabbing his nose with a handkerchief.

He felt he would melt from guilt if Wangye stared at him more. Long Xu Le's eyes were painted with suspicion.

"Commander, General Su reporting!"

Her Highness pried her gaze away from Beauty Feng.

"What is the situation?" She frowned.

The attackers were solely targeting Feng Yanyan. It was bad news. Did they discover something about the Feng family or not?

There were many secrets hidden underneath Dalong but Wan Li Wang wasn't ready to expose the Feng family to the world.

At least not yet. That Old Master Feng would surely rage if their family came to light.

Governor-General Su wasn't blind not to see Feng Yanyan's close proximity to the King. But he had no time to play around.

"These people are more decisive than others. The moment they saw the assassination failed, the person closest to our proximity sliced his throat. The others jumped into the waters. The arrows came from different parts of the ship but the trajectories made it look like they were all from one direction."

General Su made sure that Wangye understood the strength of the other party.

These were elites of elites. But of course, their forces were also not to be reckoned with.

"We managed to track the four assassins who escaped. Separate teams are onto them now. It would only be a matter of time until they are captured."

Long Xu Le nodded. Her serene posture was separate from the occasional cries of the panicked crowd upstairs. The limelight of the winners from the race that just ended vanished because of this incident.

The breeze from the lake lifted her robes just a bit.

"Out of all the people in this boat..." Her gaze landed on Beauty Feng.

Feng Yanyan felt the terror of losing his head once again. The King's words were right. Out of all the people, he was the one targeted.

"Wangye, this one swears I didn't offend anyone!" He clutched his neck, feeling a phantom thread tightening around it.
