Chapter 910: Stealing Me?
“Wow, Ding Tingding is targeting His Highness the Crown Prince this time!”
“Can this be the same as those people in the past! Oh my Heavens.”
“I bet that this time, Ding Tingding’s plan will definitely fall through. What kind of person is His Highness? Would he let that brat have his way!”
The crowd created a buzz, discussing in a frenzy without stopping.
“Guess what kind of treasure is His Highness the Crown Prince’s most treasured? Could it be some kind of cultivation technique that defies the natural order or the like!”
“Perhaps it’s some kind of miracle elixir.”
“Sh*t, Ding Tingding couldn’t be coveting His Highness’s kingdom, right.”
“Move aside, move aside! Everyone disperse and make way for His Highness.”
“Everyone move aside, you’re prohibited from crowding around here.” Afterwards, two lines of royal guards ran over and parted the crowd.
Thereafter, that panel constructed from lapis lazuli was exposed from the ma.s.s of jostling people.
A slender figure dressed in ink-colored robes strode near this lapis lazuli mission panel, staring coldly at that fluttering piece of crimson paper above him.
Raising his right hand, he curled his fingers.
That piece of crimson paper then flew into his hand with a whoosh.
As the man lowered his eyes, he gazed icily at this piece of crimson paper.
After all, no one was clearer than himself.
Cultivation techniques that defied the natural order, miracle elixirs, even the kingdom—none of that—was his most treasured.
Ding Tingding, this d*mn despicable scoundrel, actually intended to stretch his evil talons towards his darling!
He wanted to kill this guy personally!
With his eyes turning cold, Mo Lian tightly clenched this piece of crimson paper. By the time he unclenched his fist again, the piece of paper had already turned into powder and scattered with the wind.
More than a thousand people had gathered in the central plaza, but no one dared to speak at all.
His Highness was honestly a bit terrifying when he exhibited full-blown deterrence. Everyone could tell that that man was in a very bad mood.
Who dared to touch the lion’s tail at this moment!
It’s not like they thought that they had lived for too long!
Although everyone didn’t dare to say anything, they were still rather curious, even antic.i.p.ating the arrival of the Lantern Festival.
Ding Tingding had been undefeated for years, which was why he was called the Thief Sage Ding Tingding. They truly had no idea if he would fail this time in stealing from His Highness.
If he failed, then it would break his undefeated record.
Several days later, the Marquis of Jiayuan’s Estate.
When Qiao Mu heard the report that a s.h.i.+pment from Southern Baili had been received, she guessed that it must be her batch of ebony that had finally arrived.
When she ran out to take a look, it was as she had expected. Yet while she was checking and confirming the s.h.i.+pment, the youths from the Hidden Night Pavilion had surrounded the entire estate so that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
There were no less than 30,000 pieces of ebony in this s.h.i.+pment, which put Qiao Mu in an excellent mood.
For the time being, she planned to throw this batch of ebony into her inner world. However, she wouldn’t be so dumb as to put them all away in her inner world at the main entrance. She had the servants drag them inside the estate first.
This was to avoid observant people from suspecting why her inner world was so large.
After moving everything into her own court, she asked Shaoyao while putting the items away, “Shaoyao, have you noticed that there have been more people around me these few days? Why do I feel that this court is almost encircled by people within and without?”
Shaoyao twitched her mouth. “Miss, Ding Tingding has issued that kind of provoking challenge to His Highness. Is it possible for His Highness to not be keyed up.”
“Oh, it said that Mo Lian’s stuff was going to get stolen.” Qiao Mu nodded. “That guy is stealing Mo Lian’s stuff and not my stuff, so why has he surrounded me with so many people.”
“Miss! His Highness’s most treasured that Ding Tingding wants to steal, is you!”
