Chapter 666: Chapter 660: No Eye Power (3 more)
"Tomorrow night, my birthday, you needn’t bother attending," the Seventh Princess said coldly after glancing at Xin Sha, amidst a deathly silence.
With a single sentence, she had practically sentenced Xin Sha to death.
What was his purpose in coming to the imperial city? What was his mission? Her words meant that he could no longer fulfill his task; he was about to become the villain of Great Cang Academy!
Great Cang Academy, how would they blame him?
He was finished.
Zhang Qingyi could no longer hold back and suddenly knelt on the ground.
And Zi Ming’s face also turned a shade paler, anxious!
Whether Xin Sha deserved to die or not, she didn’t care, but the affairs of Great Cang Academy were her own. Now, it was no longer just about Xin Sha; his actions had implicated Great Cang Academy!
But she said nothing, for pleading now was futile. Clearly, the Seventh Princess was in a rage.
"Sixth Brother, have you come with some matter?" the Seventh Princess inquired.
"Seventh Sister, Imperial Father sent me to bring you back to the palace!" Chu Xing said, "Imperial Father has decreed that before the birthday feast tomorrow night, you should not leave the palace on your own accord. And certainly not to dine with people of dubious character."
Although the Seventh Princess wore a veil, in truth, those with intent could still vaguely guess her identity.
And the Seventh Princess inviting a man to dine!
The implications could be significant or trivial.
After all, for all these years, the Seventh Princess had never once invited anyone to dine alone.
It was bound to lead to speculation.
And the Royal Family was absolutely unwilling to see the Seventh Princess privately pledge her life to someone or even harbor the slightest favor for someone. Not even a hint of such a development was permissible.
Moreover, it was a sensitive time now, with the birthday feast tomorrow. These few days, the entire imperial city was a gathering place for countless young talents!
How sensitive.
All eyes were on the Seventh Princess.
For the Seventh Princess to invite a man to dine alone at this time was indeed...
Therefore, the emperor had sent Chu Xing to bring his sister back to the palace.
Dubious character? Beneath her veil, her expression grew unpleasant, visibly upset.
Even though Su Chen remained expressionless, there was a trace of coldness in his eyes.
Qin Li was gritting her teeth, her anger raging, but she held back, because she didn’t want to trouble Su Chen. If she were to start cursing or lose her temper now, it would be like challenging the Royal Family, and then Brother Su would have to face off against the Royal Family for her. It would be an immense problem, and if anything bad happened to Brother Su, it would be because of her. So, she endured.
As for Xin Sha, there was a hint of relief in the depths of his eyes, and an idea formed: seeing as he had offended the Seventh Princess, if he could connect with the Sixth Prince? With the Sixth Prince’s help, he could still make it into the birthday banquet tomorrow night.
This was the only way left. Xin Sha made up his mind; he had to win over the Sixth Prince. freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Sixth Brother, Su Chen is my friend, not indecent!" The next moment, the Seventh Princess spoke up, her voice somewhat cold, "Apologize to Su Chen!!!"
What?
Chu Xing was dumbfounded.
He had not expected the Seventh Princess to defend Su Chen so staunchly. Friends? Really just friends? There’s no such thing as pure friendship between men and women!
Originally, Chu Xing thought that the Seventh Princess couldn’t possibly have such poor judgment. He had reviewed information about Su Chen and although he found Su Chen to be a monster, with a future that was boundless, he felt it was an exaggeration to say Su Chen could overshadow the entire younger generation of the Xuanfeng Dynasty. At the very least, the twenty-three-year-old Su Chen was far from capable of that, and besides, the Seventh Princess’s sights shouldn’t be limited to within the Xuanfeng Dynasty! Others might not know, but he was aware that the Seventh Princess’s Imperial Mother wielded considerable power, and the Seventh Princess should be looking towards the Ancient Capital of the South E Ancient Country!
What’s so special about Su Chen?
Chu Xing felt that since he’d dragged the Imperial Father into this, the Seventh Princess should have just gone back to the palace with him.
But unexpectedly...
Apologize? He, a dignified prince, apologize to a nobody like Su Chen?!
What a joke!
"Seventh Sister, don’t be ridiculous," Chu Xing forced a smile and said. Only the Seventh Princess dared to utter such words. If it were anyone else, demanding an apology from him, he would have struck them on the spot.
"I’m not being ridiculous," the Seventh Princess shook her head. As Su Chen hadn’t provoked the Sixth Brother, what right did he have to call others indecent? Moreover, in the Seventh Princess’s opinion, Su Chen was excellent, extremely so. A person who relies on no background, without vast martial arts cultivation resources, without a powerful master, yet could achieve so much – isn’t that excellence?
"Seventh Sister, you know that I am a prince and I cannot apologize to anyone! Besides, this fellow... he’s not worthy!!!" Chu Xing’s face grew stern. After all, so many people were watching. He might fear his Seventh Sister, but he can’t show weakness to Su Chen, right? Otherwise, where would he, Chu Xing, the Sixth Prince, put his face? Where would the Royal Family’s dignity go?
"Not worthy?" Beneath her veil, the Seventh Princess’s eyes grew cold. The Sixth Prince’s repeated provocations – was this bullying of Su Chen? Was it as if she didn’t exist? After all, it was she who invited Su Chen for a meal today, wasn’t it?
"Seventh Sister, indeed he is not worthy. His best achievement is simply defeating the sect leaders of the Leiming Sect and Du Xuan Sect!" Chu Xing took a deep breath and said, "Of course, for his age, he counts as a super genius. But at the birthday banquet tomorrow night, when those who come to wish you well will include many more talented than him, he really isn’t anything special."
"Enough!" The Seventh Princess suddenly stood up. "Sixth Brother, I don’t want to get angry. Leave on your own and don’t disturb Su Chen and me any further while we are dining; otherwise, I’ll make sure you regret it!"
Chu Xing’s expression changed dramatically. He never imagined that the Seventh Princess would lash out so fiercely and show him no face at all.
Where was his dignity?
He was the Sixth Prince!
Was he supposed to leave with his tail between his legs? How would he explain this to the Imperial Father? And leaving like this would surely turn him into a laughingstock, right?
Thus, even upon seeing the Seventh Princess’s fury, he still took a deep breath, resisting the pressure, "Seventh Sister, the Imperial Father has given me orders, and I must fulfill his task..."
He said, looking at Su Chen. Since he couldn’t persuade his Seventh Sister, he would look for a weak spot in Su Chen.
If he couldn’t take the Seventh Sister with him, he should at least be able to drive away Su Chen, right?
"Su Chen, you should know when to leave. If I were you, I would leave right now. Don’t you agree?" Chu Xing stared at Su Chen, feeling irritated. He really thought Su Chen was too ungrateful. Knowing what’s good for him, he shouldn’t still be sitting there so calmly!
Was he looking for trouble?
"Seventh Princess, this wine is excellent," Su Chen, as if he hadn’t heard Chu Xing’s interrogation, just offered a faint smile and turned to the Seventh Princess, praising her choice. The wine was indeed superb. Although the dishes hadn’t been served yet, the wine had arrived, and upon tasting it, he found the flavor exceptional and purely fermented, with an astonishing concentration of Spiritual Energy. One sip and his body felt immensely refreshed.
