"Thump thump thump." The sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from below as a figure hurriedly ran in. He took a quick glance at the room before quickly walking up to Nan Chang'er and respectfully knelt down, "Second Princess, the Ming Hua Empire's envoy has arrived. The Emperor invites you to go back."

Although the guard's voice was not loud, the few people close to Han Xiao heard his words. Immediately, they looked in his direction with eyes full of shock, some of them even trembled as they tried to get up, wanting to kneel down.

He indifferently looked at the guards in front of him and said without changing his expression, "I understand, you can leave first."

"Second princess, the envoy of Ming Hua Empire requests for your presence." The guard said unwillingly.

"I'm currently eating. Even if I were to go back, I should eat this meal." Nan Chang'er slammed her chopsticks on the table and said.

Noticing the unhappiness in Nan Chang'er's heart, the bodyguard did not dare to say anything more, and respectfully retreated to the side, waiting for Nan Chang'er to finish her meal.

It was as if she was doing it on purpose. After the guard had arrived, the speed at which Nan Chang'er was eating became slower and slower, and she drank a bowl of soup for an hour, while the guard did not say anything else. Hearing the guard's words, those who knew of Nan Chang'er's identity did not dare to walk away either.

Feeling the gazes from all around, Nan Chang'er did not show any displeasure, and continued to leisurely drink her soup, sometimes even taking a sip of tea, her elegant appearance at the meal completely reflected the royal family's nurture, and her slow chewing made it easy for people to think that the person in front of them was a gentle and elegant lady.

"Whap." She gently placed the chopsticks on the table, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and slowly turned around to ask the guard, "Where is the Ming Hua Empire?"

"Reporting to the second princess, this subordinate was just about to enter the palace when he arrived. I presume he is already in the palace." The guard said respectfully.

Hearing the guard's words, Nan Chang'er slowly sat down and said: "Since we're already at the Imperial Palace, there's no need for me to receive them. Go back and tell your father that I still have matters to attend to here, so we'll head back tomorrow."

"Second Princess." Hearing her say this, the guard's face was immediately filled with panic. He did not expect that even after waiting for nearly four hours, she was still unwilling to follow him back to the Imperial Palace.

"I don't like to say it a second time." Nan Chang'er coldly interrupted the guard.

Hearing the cold intention in her voice, the Imperial Bodyguard's body trembled, and he did not dare to say anything else. Bowing, he left.

Seeing that the guard had left, Nan Chang'er raised her head and glanced at Wang Yang. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, no words came out, turning into a soft sigh.

"Han Xiao, are you interested in coming with me to the Imperial Palace to see what the various dynasties can do?" Although she was asking Han Xiao, her eyes had always been on Wang Yang.

"I'll just follow you to the palace. I just want to quietly cultivate and not provoke any trouble." Han Xiao said indifferently.

The palace was a good place, but it was also the place with the most trouble. The palace was especially the center of trouble right now; he didn't want to get caught up in it and cause trouble for himself for no reason at all.

"Since you said that, then say your goodbyes. I'll get someone to send you the Spirit Stones that I owe you." When she stepped out of the restaurant, there was still a trace of hesitation, but there was only a trace of hesitation.

"Big Sister Chang'er." Li Lian's eyes were filled with reluctance as she saw Nan Chang'er leave. She wanted to get up and give chase, but she was stopped by Li Jun. When she recalled what the guard had said to Nan Chang'er earlier, her eyes flashed with disappointment.

After finishing the meal, Wang Yang came down to find Wang Yang and told him that he had finished refining the pill. Wang Yang said something to Han Xiao before leaving with his men.

After seeing Wang Yang leave with his subordinates, and thinking back to how that guard came to find them, Han Xiao could not help but helplessly say, "Looks like there are quite a few people following behind us every day."

"That's because of Senior Wang and Senior Nan's status, right? But I really didn't think that Senior Nan was the Second Princess of the Southern Prefecture, but from Senior Han's appearance, you should have already known Senior Nan's identity." Li Jun wanted to say.

"I only found out yesterday. I originally planned to tell you all today, but before I could, her subordinates had arrived." Han Xiao said.

Hearing Han Xiao's explanation, Li Jun's heart warmed. Actually, with Han Xiao's status, even if he was unwilling to tell them, they would not say anything. Furthermore, there would not be any disagreements between them and Han Xiao.

"Since we've already eaten our fill, let's just go out and have a look." Han Xiao felt that the gaze that had been lingering on the three of them ever since Nan Chang'er had left.

Although Nan Chang'er had left, the people who knew of her identity did not lose their heat. Right now, their gazes were like hungry wolves staring at them, as though they wanted to find a few holes in their bodies, or perhaps they wanted to find out what their identities were to actually be related to their most outstanding princess.

Li Jun also felt those unpleasant gazes as she nodded her head. The three of them then walked out of the restaurant together.

Just as they left the restaurant, Han Xiao heard the sound of neat footsteps coming from afar. He raised his head and saw an army wearing light golden armor walking towards them. Although there were only a thousand people in the army, their auras were much more powerful than the rest.

In the middle of the army was a carriage pulled by three seventh grade spirit beasts, called the Xunlang Wolf. The carriage was large enough to accommodate ten people, and the people inside could easily see who was sitting inside. Even those outside could easily see who was sitting inside the carriage.

As Xunlang moved, the pearl curtain on the carriage swayed, letting out a crisp clink. The top of the carriage was made from a piece of red glass, reflecting a golden red light under the sun. The person inside the carriage wore a golden silk golden robe.

"Xi Yun, Xuan Yuan swears." Although he knew that the Ao Sky Emperor Palace would send people over, he did not expect it to send Xi Yun over. Thinking about Nan Chang'er's cultivation and her scheming, Han Xiao couldn't help but worry for Xi Yun and was extremely confused about the decision of the Ao Sky Emperor Palace.

"Senior Han, do you know them?" Hearing Han Xiao call out the names of the two, Li Jun asked in confusion.

"Xi Yun is also a student of the Abyss Academy, so I know him." After Han Xiao said this, he couldn't help but want to turn around and leave when he saw the group getting closer. It wasn't a good thing for him to meet Xi Yun right now.

Regardless of the other people, Han Xiao directly pulled Li Xiao with one hand, Li Lian with the other, directly turned around and returned to the restaurant. Li Xiao wanted to pull Li Lian with the other, Li Xiao directly pulled Li Xiao, directly pulled Li Lian with the other, directly turned around and returned to the restaurant.

If Han Xiao knew that Li Xiao was thinking this way, he would be speechless. He had just not thought of how to tell Xi Yun that he left without saying goodbye, and not because he had a grudge.

After Xi Yun's group left, Han Xiao and the others once again heard the sound of footsteps. Raising their heads, they saw another army walking towards them. This army had the same number of people as the Yun Army, but whether it was in order or the aura of the soldiers, they were inferior to the Yun Army.

The carriage was made of natural gold-plated crystals, and the four sides were inlaid with pearls. In terms of extravagance, the carriage was far superior to the carriage that Xi Yun was sitting in, and the person inside the carriage had a four-clawed dragon embroidered on his chest, representing his identity as the crown prince of a country.

The large group passed by once again. Han Xiao and the rest were just about to leave, but a bloody aura assaulted their senses. Han Xiao looked over and saw that another group had appeared in front of them.

"Including the participation of this army in the Five Empire Alliance gathering, I wonder who will be the victor this time around?" Han Xiao looked at the new batch of people and muttered to himself, his voice was so soft that even Li Jun beside him couldn't hear it.
