Chapter 535: His Highness, the Prince of Ding Lin Country
The young man’s eyes were wide and round and the only thing missing to complete his portrait of horror was for him to spurt out a mouthful of blood. Ling Chuxi’s words were even more hurtful than her throwing money in his face.
Fu Chengyu and Ling Yichen exchanged glances, both wanting to laugh out loud but were a little embarrassed to do so at the moment. Jiang Wuhen and Li Shaoqiu did not have so many concerns and directly burst out laughing loudly while holding onto their stomachs.
“Let’s go. Let’s eat, let’s eat,” said Ling Chuxi to them while totally ignoring the existence of the other group. She was in a very good mood.
“Stop right there! Today, I definitely will dine in this private room,” declared the young through gritted teeth. He was so angry that his face turned red as he spoke. The moment he said these words, the other people in his group took a few steps forward and blocked the door of the private room. Instantly, a surge of invisible might dispersed over from them to Ling Chuxi’s group.
Ling Chuxi, Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu weren’t really affected, but Li Shaoqiu and Jiang Wuhen felt the air in their chests lag and felt that breathing became difficult. Even their faces turned into an ugly color due to the lack of air.
Ling Chuxi was secretly surprised. Seeing these people’s methods and might, they all actually possessed cultivation in the realm of Great Fulfilment. Then what was this young man’s identity?
Doubt was doubt, but Ling Chuxi did not wish to make way just because of it. Ling Chuxi’s Battle Qi circulated within her and her body emitted a ray of light that only her Battle Qi uniquely possessed.
Ling Yichen and Fu Chengyu also took a step forward each and released their own Battle Qi. Li Shaoqiu and Jiang Wuhen felt the suppression upon their chests lighten and the color in their faces returned to usual as they could breathe again.
The other group was secretly surprised. Seeing how Ling Chuxi’s group of people dressed, they had originally thought that they were merely rich kids from Nan Xia’s capital. It was only when they revealed their cultivation that they knew that they were not so simple.
Both parties had swords drawn and bows strung by now. Under the surge of such powerful Battle Qi, everyone could feel a strong suppression.
The young man suppressed his anger and forced himself to calm down. The few bodyguards he had brought with him were not weak, but the people in the other group were not either. If they really came to blows, he could only dream about gaining any form of advantage. It was just that by now both parties were unwilling to back down and at present, he did not how to end things well.
“Fellow guests, please quell your anger. It is just a private room, after all. I will help you find a way to settle the matter.” The shopkeeper was so shocked that he was sweating bullets. These were all experts in the realm of Great Fulfilment. If they fought, who knows? Maybe the entire Jing Hua Restaurant would even be torn apart. The shopkeeper made a decision in his heart. Even if he had to beg his grandfather and complain to his grandmother or offend a few people, he definitely had to squeeze out another private room for use right now.
The young man’s mood eased up. The shopkeeper’s words had also coincidentally given him a platform to step down from.
“Ninth Younger Brother, long time no see. I never thought that you’d be here too.” At this moment, another young man walked over and spoke to Fu Chengyu enthusiastically.
Seeing this other young man, Ling Chuxi frowned and had an unpleasant feeling. This was Fu Chengxing. He was the second prince of Nan Xia Country, and although the first prince had lost his life when he was defeated in his attempted coup, these other princes had no intentions of giving up on the fight to be emperor. Although they were afraid of the emperor’s might and no longer dared to be so flagrant in their intentions, their hidden intrigues were worse than they had been in the past.
“Second Elder Brother,” responded Fu Chengyu indifferently. He obviously did not wish to speak to Fu Chengxing, but it would not be socially acceptable to act on his wishes, so he still replied.
“Ninth Younger Brother? Second Elder Brother?” repeated the young man as he looked at Fu Chengyu and Fu Chengxing back and forth, vaguely guessing at their identities.
“Oh, goodness. Well, are you not His Highness, Fifth Prince?” said the second prince to the young man with a surprised look on his face.
“Fifth Prince?” said Ling Chuxi and the rest, slightly surprised. This fifth prince was naturally not the fifth prince of Nan Xia Country. So which country’s fifth prince was he? Seeing the cultivation level of his guards, besides Ding Lin Country, Ling Chuxi truly could not think of any other possibilities. However, why would the fifth prince of Ding Lin country come to Nan Xia Country? Ling Chuxi could vaguely smell the scent of a conspiracy.
