Chapter 165 I Can Make You My Official Wife
Mo Ziyuan and the others gripped their longswords and charged forward.

The third prince watched for a while, then turned his gaze to the carriage parked in the clearing in the woods. For some reason, he dismounted and walked towards the carriage.

"Auntie, bad guys are coming." Lin Tao, who was lying next to Lin Xin, snuggled closer to her and whispered.

"It's alright, someone like him, Auntie can take on ten of them by herself," Lin Xin said, patting his fluffy little head.

“Yes, Auntie is the best!” Lin Tao nodded as a matter of course.

The third prince walked to the carriage and overheard the last two sentences of their conversation. He raised an eyebrow and lifted the curtain with one hand.

Three pairs of eyes turned to look at him simultaneously.

The Third Prince first looked at Lin Xin and Lin Nan, and finally at Lin Tao. He looked Lin Tao up and down several times, and nodded seriously, saying, "He really does look a lot like my good brother!"

Lin Tao gripped Lin Xin's clothes tightly with his small hands.

"Miss Lin, I know you are very powerful, but it's not so easy for one of you to take on ten of me. Why don't you come down and we'll have a match?" The Third Prince looked at Lin Tao and then at Lin Xin.

"Tch," Lin Xin snorted, "Let's go down and have a go at it. Are you stupid or am I stupid?"

“Miss Lin, my subordinates told me you are highly skilled. I want to know if you can protect this child under my protection.”

"Sorry, I won't compete with you. Also, I advise you to stay away from me and the two children. Several of your subordinates have reported to you about me, so you should know that my hidden weapons are very powerful and never miss. If you don't want a cut on your neck, you'd better hide among your subordinates." Lin Xin's superpowers had not fully recovered, and she didn't want to fight the Third Prince to the death. She needed to conserve some of her superpowers to deal with the man in black.

"I know!" The Third Prince nodded, his expression seemingly quite regretful. After thinking for a moment, he simply sat down on the carriage shaft. "Anyway, they'll be fighting for a while longer. I'm very curious about you now. Can you talk to me about it?"

Looking into the Third Prince's calm eyes, Lin Xin's vigilance reached its peak. She sensed a raging storm lurking beneath the man's seemingly placid expression, a kind of destructive madness. She didn't want to provoke someone like him.

"Since you haven't objected, I'll take that as a yes." The Third Prince said to himself, "I'm curious why you chose to help my elder brother instead of me. If you're willing, I can make you my principal wife. After I clear away all obstacles and ascend the throne, you will be the Empress, the mother of the nation, and all women will have to grovel at your feet. Wouldn't that be better than now?"

Lin Xin: "..." I'm not sick. What kind of empress do I have to be? Whoever wants to do that exhausting job can do it, but please don't mess with me!

The Third Prince didn't seem to need her to answer; as long as she kept her eyes on him, he could keep the conversation going on by himself.

He continued, "Oh, right, I forgot, you're a person who doesn't care about fame or fortune, so you probably wouldn't like this so-called empress dowager thing," he raised his hand to rub his forehead, seemingly quite troubled, "But what can I do? You're too capable, so capable that I can't allow you to exist while I'm ruling the world." "That's easy to solve," Lin Xin couldn't help but say after hearing him say such a long thing, "Just don't rule the world, that's all."

"Also, let me tell you, people should never try to do things they are not capable of. Like you, you don't have much real ability, but you have a lot of crooked ways. If someone like that becomes emperor, can the people live well? So I advise you to stop messing around. It's much better to be a leisurely prince. You have power and money. Why bother to fight for the throne when it's all so thankless!"

"You bastard!" The Third Prince suddenly turned hostile upon hearing Lin Xin's words, his right hand forming a claw as he reached for Lin Xin's face. Lin Xin tilted her head back to dodge, and then reached out her right hand to grab his wrist, but he dodged it at a very tricky angle.

"Not bad, you've got some skills. Let's try again!" After saying that, the Third Prince grabbed at her head and face again.

Lin Xin's anger suddenly flared up. He had clearly intended to disfigure her with those two attacks. Without holding back, she used all her strength, throwing out both fists from below. One fist was used to block the Third Prince's claws, while the other punched his ribs.

The Third Prince dodged a punch to his ribs with lightning speed, but his right forearm took a solid hit from Lin Xin. He immediately felt his entire arm go numb and couldn't lift it at all, which horrified him.

He was quite clear about his own strength. He had been practicing with masters found by his maternal grandfather since he was a child. Not only had he mastered internal martial arts, but his body had also been tempered to be extremely strong. He had sparred with many masters and fought head-on several times, but he had never encountered anything like what happened today. His fear of Lin Xin rose to another level.

Lin Xin was also quite surprised. She had used all her strength in that attack, a head-on clash with the Third Prince, without any hesitation. Yet, a punch that could have shattered a wall landed on his arm, and he was completely unharmed. Was it really fate that was going to take her today?
Thinking of this, she once again regretted why she had awakened the useless water and wood elemental abilities. If only it were lightning, she could have just given this annoying madman a good beating and let him taste what it's like to be struck by lightning.

With lingering fear in his heart, the Third Prince no longer lingered in the carriage. He looked at Lin Xin seriously and said, "My words always stand. I'll ask you again after they're all dead. Remember to think it over carefully. Even if you're not thinking of yourself, what about your brother? Are you willing to let him die with you?"

Lin Xin: ¥#%¥&……%&, how dare you threaten me! If I weren't currently depleted of my superpowers, I would have turned you into a dried-up corpse in a heartbeat!
She thought angrily as she looked at Mo Ziyuan and the others who were fighting.

The third prince left the carriage and returned to his large white horse. He leaped onto the horse and began to seriously observe the fighting crowd.

There were already many severed limbs and the corpses of men in black on the ground. Mo Ziyuan and his companions were also in a sorry state, their bodies and faces splattered with blood, and the longswords in their hands were completely obscured by the blood.

The Third Prince narrowed his eyes. He hadn't expected Mo Ziyuan and the others to be so tenacious. He had clearly chosen to attack when they were most exhausted, so how could they still kill so many of his men?

Mo Ziyuan swung his sword again, slicing open the chest of a man in black. Red blood splattered out, splashing onto his face and even getting some into his eyes.

He took a moment to wipe his face, and just then, a long sword stabbed at him from behind. It was too late to dodge.

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh rang out, but the expected pain did not come. Mo Ziyuan turned around and saw Fu Jing standing with his back to him, a glittering sword tip faintly visible on his right shoulder blade.
