Thankfully, Ling Yuyan had already become a lot stronger after consuming [Marrow Cleansing Pill] yesterday, and her avatar had also been trained extremely harshly by An Yue's avatar for several days in the Dream Space.
If not for all of those, Wang Meng Yuan's heavy punch would have already landed on Ling Yuyan's face and broken her nose right now.
Wang Meng Yuan had already practiced Wang Family's fire attribute martial arts diligently for almost a decade.
The only reason Wang Meng Yuan had not been able to reach the Martial Apprentice realm was because her [Water Spirit Body] was completely incompatible with Wang Family's fire attribute martial arts.
But that did not mean all her decade-long efforts were in vain!
After Wang Meng Yuan switched to water attribute martial arts, her improvement speed would be extremely fast because she had already laid a very solid foundation beforehand!
Compared to Wang Meng Yuan, Ling Yuyan was a completely newbie who had just started to practice martial arts yesterday...
Ling Yuyan herself also knew that she was still far from being Wang Meng Yuan's match... at least not yet for now, but she clearly could not raise her hand and give up just like that!
"Don't worry, Sister Yuyan~! You just need to follow my instructions, and I will surely make you win!" An Yue suddenly spoke telepathically to Ling Yuyan.
'An Yue?! I am really counting on you this time~!' Ling Yuyan replied to An Yue nervously.
"Leave it to me! Here she comes! First, you need to..." An Yue began to instruct Ling Yuyan word by word.
Wang Meng Yuan stepped closer to Ling Yuyan and swung her palm to Ling Yuyan's chest!
However, Ling Yuyan turned her slender body aside to avoid Wang Meng Yuan's palm while punching her right fist forward!
BANG~!
Surprisingly, Ling Yuyan actually managed to land a punch on Wang Meng Yuan's stomach, but unfortunately, there was a lack of power behind her fist, so Wang Meng Yuan only felt slightly painful and took a step back.
"Sister Yuyan, why did you use your punch?! Use your palm! You should recall how hard your avatar trained [Water Flowing Palm] in the Dream Space!" An Yue reminded Ling Yuyan.
Ling Yuyan might have all of her avatar's memories in the Dream Space, but she clearly did not have any experience in actual battle yet, so it would not be easy for her to apply what she had learned to actual battle!
"HAHAHAHAHA~! Look at that trash! She cannot even beat my little maid after training martial arts for many years! How embarrassing!" Wang Qingling laughed mockingly at Wang Meng Yuan.
Wang Meng Yuan became even angrier at Wang Qing's provocation and attacked Ling Yuyan even fiercer!
Ling Yuyan had an urge to cry so badly.
She clearly did not do anything to provoke these two scary women, but she became the one who suffered the most!
Although An Yue was secretly helping Ling Yuyan with her instruction, but Ling Yuyan clearly could not execute her instruction perfectly and subconsciously made a lot of unnecessary mistakes.
When Ling Yuyan took a few steps back to retreat, she accidentally tripped on a tiny rock and fell backward!
But someone actually caught her from behind before she could fall onto the ground!
Wang Meng Yuan took this chance to throw a heavy punch to Ling Yuyan's face!
Ling Yuyan could not avoid Wang Meng Yuan's punch anymore in her current position, so she could only close her eyes and grit her teeth to resist the pain.
BAAAANG~!
However, Ling Yuyan did not feel the anticipated pain after a few moments, so she slowly opened her eyes again.
Ling Yuyan saw Wang Meng Yuan was already a few meters away from her while holding her hand with a painful expression.
Then Ling Yuyan heard a gentle but masculine voice whisper into her left ear: "This is the second time you slipped and fell in front of me today."
Ling Yuyan instantly felt a cold chill running down her spine after she heard this familiar voice.
Ling Yuyan hastily struggled to get out of Jing Weiyuan's embrace and distanced herself from him.
"This little maid thanks His Highness Third Prince for his help." Ling Yuyan politely lowered her head to Jing Weiyuan while trembling in fear and nervousness.
Wang Meng Yuan frowned deeply in displeasure and fearlessly questioned Jing Weiyuan: "Third Prince, why are you interrupting our sparring practice and helping her?"
Jing Weiyuan still showed his usual gentle and kind smile while saying in a persuasive tone: "I know this is not my business, but aren't you bullying this little maid too much?"
"You may not been able to reach the Martial Apprentice realm until now, but you have already trained in martial arts for many years, while this little maid never even touched any martial arts."
"You said I interrupted your sparring practice and helped her, but in my opinion, I just tried to stop you from bullying this little maid. Even if you win against her in the end, will you feel satisfied to win against someone who never even practiced any martial arts?"
Jing Weiyuan's words woke up Wang Meng Yuan and made her feel embarrassed.
Jing Weiyuan stopped lecturing Wang Meng Yuan and turned to face Wang Qingling this time.
"Young Miss Wang Qingling, I know this sparring practice should be your idea. So, I really hope you can treat your maids better from now on. You definitely do not want me to tell how you always bully your maids to my royal brother later, right?" Jing Weiyuan gently said, but there was a hidden threat in his words.
Wang Qingling became a bit panicked in an instant as she hastily shook her head: "No, third prince! Please don't tell the Crown Prince about this! I... I swear I will treat her better from now on!"
Jing Weiyuan smiled while nodding his head in satisfaction at Wang Qingling's promise.
Even Ling Yuyan was completely astonished as she thought: 'As I expected from the scheming Dragon-Class villain, he could actually silence both Wang Qingling and Wang Meng Yuan in only a few sentences!'
Then Jing Weiyuan waved his hand to Ling Yuyan and whispered to her: "You careless little maid, can you come and follow me for a while?"
Ling Yuyan shook her head desperately to reject Jing Weiyuan's request: "No, I... I can't... I... I must follow Miss Qingling to..."
Wang Qingling glared at Ling Yuyan threateningly, then she smiled kindly at Jing Weiyuan: "You can follow and serve the Third Prince from now on! Did you hear me?!"
Ling Yuyan almost had a heart attack and fainted on the spot after she heard Wang Qingling's words.
Ling Yuyan sobbed as she tried to beg Wang Qingling: "Miss Qingling, how can you kick this maid to serve someone else after everything we have been through together..."
Unfortunately, Wang Qingling did not want to hear Ling Yuyan's nonsense anymore, so she impatiently pushed Ling Yuyan away toward Jing Weiyuan.
'All right, I am really such a big fool to count on this unreliable villainess!' Ling Yuyan groaned unwillingly in her heart.
Ling Yuyan could only heavyheartedly follow Jing Weiyuan from behind.
After both of them walked to the more remote location, Jing Weiyuan turned around to face Ling Yuyan and spoke with his usual gentle and kind smile on his handsome face: "Why do you always look so afraid of me?"
Jing Weiyuan took a step closer to Ling Yuyan as his gentle and kind smile turned into a cold and ruthless smile: "Do you know something about me?"
Ling Yuyan's slender body shuddered violently as she quickly lowered her head to hide her terrified expression.
"I... Third Prince, this maid is just a little insignificant maid, so... of course, this maid is afraid of offending anyone with the imperial bloodline like the Third Prince." Ling Yuyan said a random reasonable excuse.
"Really? Then why don't you dare to raise your head and stare at me while saying that? You are lying to me, right?" Jing Weiyuan muttered as he took another step closer to Ling Yuyan.
Yes, Ling Yuyan did not dare to stare at Jing Weiyuan's eyes at all.
As the most terrifying dragon-class villain who was extremely good at calculating and scheming behind the scenes, Jing Weiyuan was not only good at acting and lying to others, but he was also extremely good at judging if anyone was lying to him by watching their eyes and expressions.
In the later part of the book that Ling Yuyan had read, Jing Weiyuan could even read other people's thoughts and guess their plans just by looking at their faces!
Such terrifying dragon-class villain, Ling Yuyan did not dare to challenge her luck against him!
Even though the current Jing Weiyuan was clearly still far from as overpowered as him in the later part of the book, but Ling Yuyan really did not want to test if he could already read her mind at this moment or not!
Jing Weiyuan chuckled when he saw Ling Yuyan who was so scared to almost burst into tears.
He patted Ling Yuyan's head gently to comfort her while saying in a playful tone: "I was just kidding around with you. Why are you so timid?!"
Jing Weiyuan took something out of his spatial treasure and threw it to Ling Yuyan.
Ling Yuyan caught it in panic and realized that it was actually a martial arts manual since there were [Wind Drifting Legs] written on the cover of the book.
"You always tripped when you walk, right? Then you should try to practice this martial art from now on, so you will not fall so easily anymore." Jing Weiyuan advised Ling Yuyan with a playful smile on his handsome face.
