Ban Xia had used quite a bit of strength in this slap, and after she had slapped him, her palm immediately burned with a fiery pain.

On Acton's face, there was a clear five-finger mark.

"Damn it, you actually shouldn't have given our leader face. You should have hit him, you don't want to live anymore!"

However, Ban Xia's vigilance did not decrease.

Acton's current appearance was making her feel more and more uneasy.

His gaze towards her was full of aggression and greed. It was the gaze of a grown man that belonged to a woman he had taken a fancy to. Such a gaze made her feel a chill in her heart.

"Beauty, you should think about what I have just said. Be assured, if you follow me, I definitely won't let you suffer even the slightest bit. What that sickly prince can give you, I can also give you; on the contrary, what he can't give you, I can also give you as well. After weighing everything, you should know that choosing me to follow me is the wisest decision you can make."

Was Acton a man or a cold and proud king? The arrogance in his bones caused him to have the desire to conquer Ban Xia.

What he wanted was for her to follow him wholeheartedly and become his woman, with only his own woman in her heart.

Stealing from others was not his style.

"This is impossible!" Ban Xia's small face darkened, and coldly rejected him, "I am from the Floating Cloud Nation, and I already have a husband, so it is impossible for me to betray my husband, and even more so, it is impossible for me to leave him."

"But he can't be humane, he's neither a man nor a woman, he has lost his life as a man, he's just a useless piece of trash!"

Ban Xia's gaze became even colder, and her entire body was enveloped in cold air.

"What qualifications do you have to talk to him like that? You guys don't even know anything, of course you don't need to know!" Are you guys going to scram or not? If you don't, then we're going to have a big battle! Those who are not afraid of death, come! "

Ban Xia was furious, his heart was filled with rage, she anxiously wanted to release it.

The sharp sword in his hand was already ready to move.

"Leader, since this woman doesn't know what's good for her, we might as well capture her and tie her up. At that time, we can do whatever the leader wants to do. In any case, if we capture her alive, she won't be able to fight back."

A group of barbarians also started to move. Acton's blood began to boil as he heard this suggestion.

"Alright, whoever catches her alive will be heavily rewarded!"

As soon as he gave the order, the other barbarians seemed to be on stimulants.

There weren't many women in this barren border area. The appearance of a living woman had already aroused the strange thoughts of these men. Now that they had so many people, it would be easy for them to capture her alive.

These barbarian subordinates pounced towards Ban Xia like starving wolves.

Ban Xia did not dare to be careless, and focused on handling these people.

In the end, she was the only one who was weak. It didn't take her long before she lost some of her strength.

Acton stood where he was, staring at the women in the field, struggling like a cornered beast, watching with cold eyes.

At this time, the city gate slowly opened and a group of people rushed out from the city.

The person in the lead was a man wearing a long, dark green robe. He was riding a big, black horse. The horse was galloping and the breeze was gently blowing. The man's appearance was especially familiar.

"Kill these barbarians for me, I will reward you handsomely!"

Qian Yexun sat on the horse and glared at Acton.

All the rumors, all the rumors, were spread and created by this shameless man.

At the beginning, he had thought that the other party's goal was only him. He only wanted to get rid of his name so that he wouldn't have the face to stay in Banyan City.

This damnable, damnable man, how dare he set his sights on his woman!

The sharp sword in Qian Yexun's hand came out of its scabbard, pointing straight at Acton who was not far away.

Acton was also infuriated. Wasn't the appearance of the other party spoiling his plans?

When enemies meet, their eyes will be red.

The two of them immediately clashed their blades against each other and began to fight.

Ban Xia was not idle either. The subordinates that Qian Yexun had brought had already removed her encirclement, and she was releasing all of her Qi. Anyone who did not have eyes for another will be sliced off their own head by her sword.

Very quickly, the situation on the scene reversed.

Several barbarian brothers had died in a row. Seeing that the situation was getting worse for them, they couldn't help but feel anxious.

Acton confronted Qian Yexun. Originally, he was very confident in his ability to win in a one on one battle.

However, his men were useless.

Seeing that Qian Yexun's sword was about to attack him, Acton was distracted and wanted to quickly retreat to the side, barely avoiding it.

More than half of his men had died. If this went on, the lives of his men would be lost here.

"Retreat!"

He was the first to step on his own horse, and with a pinch of the horse's belly, it galloped away with him.

Before he escaped, he did not forget to look back at Ban Xia.

"Beauty, I will not give up so easily. Sooner or later, you will become my woman!" He already had an intense desire to conquer her.

Since the leader had retreated, the remaining barbarians also retreated in a flustered manner.

The danger had been averted. Only a few corpses of the barbarians were left on the battlefield.

Ban Xia stood in place. Looking at Qian Yexun's gloomy expression, he didn't know, for a moment, whether or not he should go up and explain himself.

In particular, Acton's last words, too provocative, too unwitting, were that she had secretly colluded with this man.

If Qian Yexun had misunderstood her, then this outcome …

In the end, it turned out that this man was indeed too narrow-minded in this regard, and this time, he was indeed angry.

He didn't even look at Ye Xiao and just led his horse directly into the city.

In the whole process, he acted as if it had nothing to do with him.

"Damn it! "It's not my fault. Why would he have such a cold face for me to see? Hmph!" Ban Xia was also angry.

When she thought about it, it had been Acton who had provoked her through all kinds of estrangement, and she had firmly refused to give him any chance at all.

She had already done this, yet she still didn't chase away that shameless man. What could she do? Was this also her fault?

Even when he returned to the official's residence in the city, Ban Xia still had not waited for a single word of concern from Qian Yexun.

She waited until nightfall.

Usually by this time, Qian Yexun would already have returned to his official residence, even if he was not eating at the residence, he should still be in the study reading the military manual. But now, not a single person could be seen.

"Princess, are you waiting for your highness to return? It's already dark outside. Why don't you go back to your room for dinner? Maybe the prince will only come back after he eats outside. " The servants who served her had always felt that the atmosphere was off today. This wangfei's expression was also very bad, so they were all very careful.

"Let's go, I have no appetite." Ban Xia waved her hands weakly. She decided that she would not wait any longer and went back to her room alone.

The inside of the house was quiet, and Ban Xia felt even more lonely.

"Why are you so useless? Weren't you always alone in the past? Why are you so sentimental now? Why can't you be by yourself! Without that man, would the sky have fallen? "

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

Thus, he closed the door and window, and lay down in his clothes.

That night, Ban Xia slept uncomfortably, always in a state of half dreaming and half awake.

It wasn't until the next morning, when she woke up and found that the wall was still empty, as it had been the night before, and that he hadn't moved a muscle, that she knew he hadn't come back to the house that night.

"If he doesn't return, then he doesn't return. What's the big deal?"

The servant had long made the brunch, but seeing her pale face, he knew that she was in a bad mood, so he became even more cautious.

"Prince, did you not return to the residence last night?"

Ban Xia was finally unable to hold back and the servants started to ask.

"Princess, Prince …" It seems that he had not returned to his residence yet, but of course it is possible that by the time he returned, the youths would have already rested.

When Zhang Liang was mentioned, he rarely left his master's side, and could be considered as his personal follower.

But now, Zhang Liang was also nowhere to be seen.

"Fine, you won't come back, right? Then it's best if you never come back!"

Ban Xia angrily threw away the bamboo chopsticks in her hand, she also didn't have the slightest bit of appetite for the brunch.

Indeed, Qian Yexun did not return to the official residence last night.

Naturally, there was no comfortable bed collapsed on the other side of the council room. He leaned against the chair for a while, but actually, he was not that sleepy. He could not tell if he was angry with himself or with that woman.
