Chapter 346: One More Ruthless Than the Other

Chapter 346: Chapter 346: One More Ruthless Than the Other

Meng Jiaxin looked at Ye Feng with a smile. "It’s so late. Instead of drinking happily with your beautiful bride and consummating your marriage, you’ve run out here. What’s gotten into you?"

Before Ye Feng could speak, Ouyang Qiu beside him huffed, "Don’t even start, First Sister. It’s absolutely infuriating..."

Ouyang Qiu quickly explained how Xia Xingyu wanted to call off the wedding. Hearing this, Meng Jiaxin erupted in fury. "Our Xiaofeng may be good-natured, but that doesn’t mean we sisters are easy to bully!"

She then turned to Du Lei beside her and ordered in a cold voice, "Ambassador Du, call the foreign ministry immediately. Tell them Malaysia is bullying a Prince of the Great Xia Empire. I demand we sever all diplomatic ties with Malaysia and shut down our embassy!"

With that, she grabbed her phone and made a call. Once it connected, she snarled through gritted teeth, "Grand Elder, Xia Xingyu is bullying Xiaofeng! I demand we mobilize all of the Great Xia Empire’s elite forces and raze Malaysia to the ground. Also, prepare to launch the missiles. I want to wipe Malaysia completely off the map..."

Xia Chuan, who had just arrived at the door, was so terrified by Meng Jiaxin’s words that he almost wet his pants. ’She’s planning to wipe Malaysia off the face of the Earth!’

He staggered over to Meng Jiaxin and, forcing a smile, exclaimed:

"Meng War God, please calm down! We can talk about this. Everything can be discussed..."

Meng Jiaxin snapped her head around, her icy gaze fixing on Xia Chuan. "My brother has been humiliated like this, and you still want to talk? What the hell is there to talk about!"

"Erk..." Xia Chuan nearly choked on her words.

’She’s clearly not someone to be trifled with.’ Helpless, he turned to Ye Feng, plastered on a placating smile, and said, "Prince, please, try to talk some sense into the Meng War God. Don’t be rash! Some actions are irreversible..."

Ye Feng looked at Xia Chuan and suddenly laughed. "I’ve been utterly humiliated, and you’re telling *me* not to be rash? Am I, Ye Feng, just a worthless dog to you people? Someone to be ordered around when you need me and kicked aside when you don’t?"

"Prince, that’s not what we meant at all! Absolutely not..." Xia Chuan quickly exclaimed, still forcing a smile.

"Prince, don’t you worry. Just leave that girl, Xia Xingyu, to me. I’ll take care of it for you. I can even have Xia Yanran marry you as well..."

"Forget it. I, Ye Feng, am no simp. I won’t grovel before any woman. Xia Xingyu thinks she’s too good for me? Well, I think I’m too good for her!

"As for this wedding, I’m calling it off, too. I have only two conditions now. First, give me that Jade Pendant. Second, get Xia Xingyu to agree to let me see her ass. Think it over. I want an answer by tomorrow morning."

After speaking, Ye Feng, along with Meng Jiaxin, Ouyang Qiu, and the others, stormed off.

Ye Feng’s cold voice drifted back. "Ambassador Du, announce to the world immediately that I, Ye Feng, will no longer support Malaysia!"

Meng Jiaxin’s icy voice immediately followed. "Xiaofeng, just destroy Malaysia and get it over with. Why are you even wasting your breath on them?"

Ouyang Qiu’s voice was also cold. "You were the one who saved Malaysia. You can also be the one to cast it into an abyss from which it will never recover!"

Left behind, Xia Chuan was on the verge of tears. ’Every single one of them is more ruthless than the last!’

Then, Ye Feng’s calm voice was heard. "I, Ye Feng, am not some bully who forces people into deals. If they don’t agree, so be it. I have no need to target Malaysia over this. However, I will get what is rightfully mine!"

Xia Chuan let out a long sigh of relief. ’At least there’s one reasonable person here!’

But his relief was short-lived as his face fell. ’You’re not marrying my granddaughter, but you still want to see her ass? That’s just a blatant insult! Forget that Xia Xingyu is the Queen of Malaysia—even an ordinary girl couldn’t agree to such a shameless request!’

But he knew all too well that if they truly angered Ye Feng and his people, Malaysia wouldn’t be able to withstand the retaliation. Forget about the Great Xia Empire; even the revenge from the twelve nations alone would be more than Malaysia could handle.

He could not allow such an outcome. Gritting his teeth, Xia Chuan turned and went back to the palace. He found Xia Xingyu, who was still seething, and put on a wide smile.

"My dear granddaughter," he began, "Ye Feng just wants a look at your ass, right? What’s the big deal? Have you forgotten our annual Malaysian beauty pageant? All those beautiful women on stage wear bikinis and let the judges look at their butts.

"And what about when you go to the beach every year to relax? You wear a bikini then, don’t you? People can see your butt then, too!

"So just agree to it. Let Ye Feng have his look and get this over with..."

"Impossible!" Xia Xingyu furiously cut him off before he could finish. "First, I am not one of those common women in a beauty pageant! I am the Queen of Malaysia, a woman of noble standing!

"Second, how can you even compare this to me going to the beach? He wants to look at *that part* of me! This is blatant humiliation. How could I ever agree to that filthy pervert’s shameless demand? Grandpa, this is out of the question!"

Xia Chuan looked at Xia Xingyu and cried out urgently, "My dear girl, have you thought about the consequences of offending Ye Feng?

"Don’t forget, Ye Feng is a Prince of the highest rank in the Great Xia Empire! If you offend him, you offend the entire Great Xia Empire. If the Great Xia Empire unleashes its wrath on Malaysia, do you really think we can survive it?

"Furthermore, if we offend Ye Feng, he’ll announce he’s cutting all ties with us. Without his protection, the allied forces of the twelve nations will surely return with a vengeance. When that happens, do you think Malaysia will be able to hold them off?"

Hearing this, Xia Yanran’s face went pale. She knew all too well how severe the consequences could be. She quickly turned to Xia Xingyu and said:

"Sis, maybe you should just agree to it..."

"Impossible!" Xia Xingyu cut Xia Yanran off angrily, her face turning livid. "First it was Li Hao, now it’s Ye Feng. Are all men in this world such scum?

"In their eyes, am I, Xia Xingyu, just some toy for them to play with as they please?

"I’m not! I am a person with integrity! So, even if I have to risk all of Malaysia, I will defend my honor and protect my dignity!"

After hearing Xia Xingyu’s words, the surrounding court officials began to murmur among themselves.

"She’s willing to risk all of Malaysia just for herself. She nearly got our nation destroyed once, nearly caused all of us to lose our homes and families. Now it’s happening all over again. Who can stand living in constant fear like this!"

"That’s right. Others arrange political marriages for the sake of national stability. She does the exact opposite. We’re cursed to have a queen like her!"

"Besides, we could understand her rejecting Li Hao—he was just a spoiled brat. But Prince Ye Feng is handsome, accomplished in both civil and military arts, and practically a peerless hero.

"If even a man like Prince Ye Feng isn’t good enough for her, then what kind of man does she possibly want?"

"At the end of the day, she’s just a woman who doesn’t know her place. She’ll only bring endless disaster upon our nation!"

"..."

"All of you, shut your mouths!" Xia Xingyu was about to explode with rage.

She couldn’t believe it. ’My own ministers are siding with Ye Feng? They dare to defy my authority as queen?’

Xia Xingyu took a deep breath, forcing down her fury, and announced in a frigid tone:

"Anyone who dares to speak out of turn on this matter again will be executed!"

With that, she stormed away.
