Chapter 113 Reason Behind The Holy Maiden And Hong De's Conflict
[You have already decided to save the Holy Maiden since the Star Hall Pope would be very dissatisfied and even furious at you if you turned a blind eye when his daughter was in trouble. After all, his impression of you was a loyal and filial disciple of his so to maintain that image, you were left with no choice but to uphold it.]
[You realized the responsibility brought upon by the Heir Of A Top Force (Gold) talent. Even if you have a top force backing you, that top force wasn't completely loyal to you who would sacrifice their lives for you.]
[If you caused dissatisfaction to them such as ignoring fellow members of the same force without a valid reason, your position as the heir of that top force will be unstable.]
[With your current high status as the Holy Son, even if you abandoned those bishops and other star masters of the Star Hall, the Star Holy Pope wouldn't punish you. But the same couldn't be said when the one in danger was his daughter and not just any random member of the Star Hall.]
[It wouldn't have been a problem if you weren't present when this happened but it is what it is. However, you didn't plan to interfere yet and just blended your presence with the crowd.]
[The Holy Maiden was quite arrogant and prideful like you but you decided to let her taste the beatings of society. After all, you already experienced that when you were beaten up and even killed by a god so you were already quite lenient with just letting a weak Star Saint do the enlightenment on her.]
[You know that one shouldn't be arrogant and prideful if that person is very weak and doesn't have the power to back up their arrogance and pride. So for the sake of teaching the Holy Maiden a valuable lesson as well as for the sake of your entertainment, you decided to witness them battle it out amongst each other.]
[You weren't the Holy Maiden's nanny so at most, you will only help her and prevent her from dying. Of course, you will also prevent any sexual harassment that will be inflicted on the Holy Maiden since you could notice the lust in Hong De's eyes.]
[You could already guess that it was Hong De who had started this conflict since the Holy Maiden and Lian Yun's personalities were unlike to start a conflict for no valid reason.]
[But as the saying goes, "Whoever started the battle isn't the problem. But whoever can come out on top and become the victor is the main problem."]
[Unfortunately for the Holy Maiden, even if it was Hong De who started the conflict, it was also he who could end it and become the victor of that conflict.]
[You have nothing to do anyway and you had left your residence in the Pope Palace just to find entertainment in Star City to relieve your boredom. It just so happened that you could bully Hong De, that annoying cousin of yours, as well as that bitch but only after they finished teaching the Holy Maiden a valuable lesson.]
[You didn't mind the arrogance and pride of the Star God before and was only annoyed at it and it was due to the Star God having the power to back up his arrogance and pride. As for the Holy Maiden, she didn't have that power so her arrogance and pride could become a huge problem in the future and she might offend someone she couldn't afford to offend.]
[After you blended your presence with the crowd to the point that even the astral energy of a Star Saint like Hong De couldn't detect your presence, you joined the crowd in witnessing the conflict between the Holy Maiden and Hong De.]
[Hong De arrogantly gazed at the Holy Maiden and spoke with a mocking tone, "Heh, you hypocrite from the Star Hall dared to take what's mine? I saw the thousand-year-old jade necklace from that auction first yet you dared to take it from me?"]
[Hong De threatened, "If you don't give me the thousand-year-old jade necklace, one way or another, I will forcefully get back what's mine!"]
[When Hong De threatened the Holy Maiden, Hong De released his astral pressure which slightly affected Lian Yun but didn't affect the Holy Maiden. However, the astral pressure of a Star Saint might only slightly affect a Star Emperor like Lian Yun, but the same couldn't be said for the bystanders who were witnessing all of this.]
[Most of the bystanders in the crowd were either nobles with no star cultivation base or those star masters whose star cultivation base was below that of a Star Emperor.]
[Because of that, you have no choice but to act along with the members of the crowd as you imitated them when they fell on the ground. After all, you only hid your presence but not your appearance. You could still be seen by others since you didn't use your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent to hide both your appearance and presence.]
[You didn't use your You Can't See Me (Gold) talent since you would only be invisible at that time but its weakness was that others couldn't pass through you. And since they couldn't see you, it would be problematic if they bumped into you and discovered you.]
[Although that weakness was also not a problem due to your absolute mind power, you didn't want to go through that much hassle when you could just blend in with the crowd since that would cost less effort and energy.]
[As you 'fainted' along with the crowd, you secretly used your mental perception to watch the conflict between the Holy Maiden and Hong De.]
[As a Star Saint like Hong De, the Holy Maiden was unaffected by his astral pressure. In response to Hong De's threat, the Holy Maiden sneered, "So what if you saw the jade necklace in the auction? Not only you, but even other auction participants had seen it. And since I outbid you, then the jade necklace is rightfully mine."]
[The Holy Maiden responded to Hong De's threat with another threat, "If you steal the jade necklace from me, I can let the Star Hall arrest you for committing a crime!"]
