Chapter 303: The Black-Bellied Huangfu Qingjue
This made the first prince reevaluate his estimation of Ling Chuxi’s cultivation. Especially after seeing the final battle between Ling Chuxi and Baili Han, the first prince confirmed something. Ling Chuxi had indeed broke through to Great Fulfilment and experienced the heavenly lightning striking the body! Then, he needed to change his strategy. Being able to take in Ling Chuxi under his own banner and use her for his own use was a matter that could not get better.
“Not sure if Miss Chuxi is free...” The first prince smiled and was just about to invite Ling Chuxi, but before he could finish speaking, the back of a person appeared before him.
The silver-haired Lord Divine Messenger directly stood in front of him, blocking Ling Chuxi from his line of sight.
“Miss Ling Chuxi, congratulations on obtaining the first place this time.” Huangfu Qingjue was a little taller than the first prince and by standing in front of the first prince, he directly blocked out the first prince completely. At this moment, he was displaying a charming smile as he spoke softly.
Ling Chuxi almost laughed out loud. Without seeing, she could imagine the first prince’s aggrieved expression. Huangfu Qingjue naturally did it purposely. Was this bullying the first prince for being shorter than him? Haha! This was too black-bellied!
“Thank you, Lord Divine Messenger.” Ling Chuxi tried hard to act as if she was surprised by the favor bestowed on her as she answered. However, when nobody was paying attention, she winked at Huangfu Qingjue playfully.
“I wish to discuss some matters with Miss Ling Chuxi in detail. Could we step aside to talk about it?” Huangfu Qingjue smiled gently as he asked.
“Of course.” Ling Chuxi smiled and nodded. Naturally, she understood that Huangfu Qingjue was helping her to relieve her of her troubles and nodded gladly as she went aside with Huangfu Qingjue.
The first prince stood at his original spot. His expression did not change much as he still smiled warmly at other people, but there was an icy cold look beneath his eyes.
The fifth princess shrugged and went aside to talk with other people.
Huangfu Qingjue speaking to Ling Chuxi by the side was noticed by many. The emperor and Consort Li was not too worried about Ling Chuxi joining the Deity Temple, because Ling Chuxi had already promised them that she would not do so. Other people were not aware of this, so each of them had different thoughts about it. E Shulan who was at a corner, looked at the two people smiling and talking. She felt both anger and hatred in her heart. Without mentioning that she did not do well in this time’s competition and even affected the image of the Deity Temple, furthermore, this time the Lord Divine Messenger from the Deity Temple had not even looked at her directly in the eye from the beginning to the end and had not even said a single word to her. This made her feel uncomfortable. Now that the Lord Divine Messenger was talking and laughing so happily with Ling Chuxi, this naturally made her jealous and hateful.
Many people pricked up their ears to hear Huangfu Qingjue and Ling Chuxi’s conversation, but they did not hear anything about Huangfu Qingjue inviting Ling Chuxi to join the Deity Temple. The royal powers naturally also felt relieved.
After the banquet ended, Ling Chuxi was preparing to return to the residence, but Baili Han followed after her.
“What’s up? Can’t find the way back home?” Ling Chuxi looked at Baili Han oddly as she asked this directionally challenge idiot.
“N, No. I want to see Xinyu.” Baili Han’s face turned a little red as he said shyly.
‘Already calling her Xinyu, and you’re still acting so shy...’ Ling Chuxi complained to herself in her heart.
“Let’s go. Get into the carriage.” Ling Chuxi smiled. She had attended tonight’s banquet alone. Ling Yichen did not enter the top three and originally did not have the qualifications to participate in the banquet. However, he had already experienced the heavenly lightning striking the body and this was known by the emperor. Thus, he was invited to the banquet, but Fu Chengyu rejected it. Fu Chengyu naturally also did not participate in such a banquet.
After returning to the residence, Ling Chuxi brought Baili Han over to Lan Xinyu and after throwing Baili Han to her, she turned around and went to look for Ling Yichen.
