152 Cao Haolong

The young man waved his hand and the ice which had encased Cao Lanying shattered. The young woman collapsed on the ground, her legs were trembling and were numb from the cold, and her heart was full of fear.

Right now, she could not even consider her appearance in front of others; she could only think of how the man she had always loved could be so cruel towards her.

There was no longer any doubt in her mind; Jiang Yao had truly tried to kill her. The only reason that she was still alive was that he had intentionally not used much power to attack her so that she could experience the feeling of death more clearly, and because her brother had appeared in time to break her free.

Everyone knew that Jiang Yao was the second most powerful expert on the entire continent of Tiandi, so if he had been serious with his attack, there was no possibility for the young man to shatter the ice.

This was also why both Cao Lanying and the young man felt their bodies tense, and were extremely vigilant.

“Your Highness, please quell your anger. My younger sister has always had this temperament, and we are trying hard to make her change, but it is a long process. Before you were able to be so generous, please don’t hold this against her.”

The young man was the oldest son of the Cao family. His name was Cao Haolong. Unlike the Eldest Miss, he was a person to be reckoned with. The two of them were of the same age, but where the Eldest Miss was born to the wife, the Oldest Son was born of a concubine.

Under normal circumstances, such a son would never be the one who would inherit the family, but the means that this young man had shown throughout the years were enough to make everyone fear his ability, and no one would look down upon him.

It was also because of the shrewd nature of this young man that the Cao family had gained the unshakeable position as the most faithful supporter of the Fourth Demon Prince.

.....

They had always been supporting the Fourth Demon Prince, but previously their attitude was neither hot nor cold.

When Cao Haolong came to power, he instantly understood that such an attitude would cause dissatisfaction with everyone. Since they had already decided on which side to stand on, they were left without the choice of who to support, and they had to give it their all to bring the fourth prince to the throne.

They all took Jiang Yao as their most formidable foe, so they naturally planned many ways to get rid of him. Unfortunately, none of them have succeeded so far.

Cao Haolong had long since heard of the existence of Luo Xiao, but he had never taken him seriously before. He felt that this young man was merely a toy paraded around by Jiang Yao, but upon looking at the pampering within the Seventh Demon Prince’s eyes, his heart could not help but throb. This was both a fortunate, and a disastrous thing.

He could not help but look at Luo Xiao for a bit longer than he usually would, which resulted in Jiang Yao’s dissatisfaction.

“I could accept her running around and annoying me occasionally, but everyone has a limit to their ability to accept. Miss Cao has caused me trouble time and time again, and I have continued to try to ignore it, but there are certain things that are impossible to accept.

“Xiaoxiao is my heart. I cannot accept anyone who causes him trouble, not to mention those who threaten him, or look as if they wish to kill him.

“You should understand the wish to protect your lover. If anyone wishes to harm your most important person, you would naturally not sit by idly and observe.”

The words that Cao Haolong had said earlier focused on Jiang Yao’s previous attitude of ignoring his younger sister. He had hoped to be able to use this as a way to convince him to once more bear with her.

Unfortunately, Jiang Yao was also very skilled at verbal confrontations. He had managed to turn the words around, and claim that it did not matter if he was troubled, but he would never allow his lover to be the subject of such problems.

The smoothness with which Jiang Yao turned the tables caused Cao Haolong to grit his teeth in annoyance.

He did not like his sister. He was not a big fan of the Fourth Demon Prince either, but since the elders in his family had made their decision, he had to stand firm. He was unwilling to see his family wiped out due to an ambiguous attitude, but he still felt that the most powerful was Jiang Yao. ????nnr????????????.c????????

The only reason that Jiang Luo was able to stay alive was merely due to this Seventh Demon Prince not caring about him.

Cao Haolong frowned and felt somewhat helpless. He truly disliked his sister, but she was still the child of his father. Even if he did not like her, he could not watch her die right in front of himself without trying to save her.

The emotions were displayed on his face, much to the surprise of everyone within the room.

Luo Xiao was not familiar with this young man, but Jiang Yao, Cao Lanying, and the manager were. They had never seen him this tangled before.

“We will let her go, as long as you understand that this is the final warning.”

The one who spoke was Luo Xiao. He was not happy with this young woman, nor had he liked the words she had said earlier. But looking at this young man who tried to protect his family, even if he disliked her, was enough to make him feel like helping him. As for whether or not it was an act, he did not care much. As he said, this was the final warning.
