Princess.”
That beautiful woman was the current princess, Wu Duan Ya’s younger sister, Her Highness: Duan Xin Ye.
She was not only beautiful, but also had a very high status. The most important thing was that she didn’t have a lover, which made all the noble young men very excited. If only they could engage in a relationship with her, they would become even more famous in their respective clans. It would also be a wonderful event for them.
After all, they all belonged to noble clans. They had many brothers who were all struggling for power. There were constant fights over power.
Duan Xin Ye walked forward and arrived at her seat and sat down.
Duan Wu Ya also sat down next to her, smiled and said: “Xin Ye, here are many people whom you probably have never met. I will introduce them to you.”
While talking, Duan Wu Ya pointed at Lin Feng and said: “That’s Lin Feng, a student of the Celestial Academy. His natural talent is incredibly monstrous. Young as he is, his strength surpasses that of Nie Yan.”
Duan Xin Ye raised her head and looked at Lin Feng in a cold and detached way, but when she saw his tattered clothes, she couldn’t help but be stupefied.
In the pavilion, everybody had a very high social status, everybody was extraordinarily dressed, good looking and honourable. Surprisingly, Lin Feng’s clothes were in tatters. It was hard not to draw people’s attention.
But immediately after, Duan Xin Ye turned around and stopped looking at Lin Feng.
“Xin Ye, look, many handsome young men from the Imperial City are here. Have a glass of Lovesick alcohol and see if there is anyone that you like.” said Duan Wu Ya while smiling.
Duan Xin Ye raised her head, looked at him and said: “Brother, what are you talking about?”
“Haha, Xin Ye, I meticulously prepared this banquet for you.”
Duan Wu Ya had a clear and distinct smile on his face. Duan Xin Ye looked down at the floor and remained silent. She hadn’t been able to find someone whom she liked in all this time.
At that moment, Yue Tian Chen stood up, grabbed a glass of alcohol and gave it to her. He then said: “Xin Ye, long time no see. How are you?”
“Tian Chen, brother, thank you for worrying about me. I’m fine.” Duan Xin Ye and Yue Tian Chen were surprisingly close to each other, but the expression on her face remained cold and indifferent. She slightly raised her glass and took a sip.
“If you’re alright, I can finally relax.” replied Yue Tian Chen in a soft and gentle tone while nodding. He then said: “A short while ago, my grandfather asked me about us. He hopes that we can get engaged and marry.”
When Yue Tian Chen finished talking, many people looked at him with envious expressions on their faces. Yue Tian Chen’s status was much higher than theirs.
Even though the Yue Clan was discreet, nobody dared look down on them. They all clearly understood that if the three biggest clans of the Imperial City had to be divided, the Duan Clan and the Yue Clan were on the same level. Their influence was about the same, much stronger than that of the Yu Clan.
When Duan Wu Ya heard the word “marry” from Yue Tian Chen’s mouth, he intensely looked at him. A mysterious cold light flashed through his eyes.
“Brother Yue, you will not marry Xin Ye.” said Duan Wu Ya while smiling.
“Your Highness, please pardon me for offending you, but my grandfather has no son. His sister only has a daughter. As far as the secret things happening in my clan are concerned, Your Highness should be even more aware of them than other people. Even though my grandfather and I are not directly related, everybody in the Yue Clan clearly thinks that I, Yue Tian Chen, should be the one getting married to Xin Ye. That would make me the direct descendent and next in line.”
