Lin Chen refused!
No one present had expected this.
In everyone’s eyes, the Fifth Princess Murong Xin, regardless of her family background or appearance, was unparalleled, and it seed that no one present would refuse such a beauty.
Even if soone really had no interest in the Fifth Princess, there was no need to refuse so bluntly.
At least maintain decorum in public and express one’s feelings privately.
Does Lin Chen not understand social etiquette at all?
Such a blunt rejection, how can the Fifth Princess gracefully retreat from this?
Kong Qing and Zhang Ming looked at Lin Chen as if he were a deity, Senior Brother Lin truly is straightforward.
On the other hand, ng Xing’s expression remained unchanged, as if he were Lin Chen, he would do the sa.
The ng family’s rules are just like that, proper and never slick.
"Lin Chen is really arrogant, even the Fifth Princess of Yan Kingdom is beneath him."
"Does he think this is Liang Kingdom? Such an action will surely offend the martial artists of Yan Kingdom."
The eyes of people from other kingdoms showed shock mingled with amusent when looking at Lin Chen; in their opinion, Lin Chen’s actions would only bring trouble to Liang Kingdom, didn’t they see the disciples from Yan Kingdom’s martial academies with angry faces?
At that mont, the most embarrassed was Murong Xin, she didn’t expect Lin Chen to refuse so bluntly.
Can’t hold his liquor?
The wine arranged by the palace for this banquet was rely common fruit wine, even an ordinary person wouldn’t have a problem drinking a pot, and for a Grade-Entering martial artist, it was nothing; just a circulation of their cultivation technique would dispel the alcohol.
For a mont, Murong Xin was frozen in place, not knowing what to say.
As the Imperial Garden fell into a solidified silence, a laugh ca from the courtyard door, like a spring breeze brushing across the face, a lazy voice with three parts mirth breaking through the stagnant air.
Everyone’s gaze followed the direction of the sound.
At the vermilion carved door, sixteen lantern-held palace maids stood in two rows, a tall woman in a floor-length gauze gown, under the light of palace lanterns, cast a halo like flowing clouds.
Her eyebrows like distant mountains tinted with black, eyes deep as icy pools reflecting stars, her nose was delicate as if drawn with fine lines, jade-like stood beneath lips already touched with three parts of spring hues, her soft, fair skin shimred with a faint moonlight, an alluring flower pastille at the corner of her eyes adding several degrees of lazy elegance. The pearl tassels hanging among her black strands made soft sounds as she moved, but couldn’t overshadow her noble deanor.
The martial artists present all held their breath, Su Zhe didn’t even notice the wine spilling from the jade cup in his hand.
This was a rare beauty under the moon.
"Sixth Sister is here!"
Murong Shuang’s call "Sixth Sister" brought many present back to their senses, making everyone realize that this rare beauty under the moon was the Sixth Princess of Yan Kingdom.
A peerless beauty.
No wonder Su Zhe declared his feelings on the spot.
At this mont, even Su Zhe’s breath was slightly hurried, the Sixth Princess was even more beautiful than when he saw her last year.
A woman like this, only he Su Zhe is worthy of.
"Junior Brother Su, it seems the Sixth Princess knew you were here and ca to this banquet despite being unwell."
A young man next to Su Zhe spoke with a cheerful smile, and upon hearing this, Su Zhe’s face drew into a smile, thinking that must be the case.
Although the Sixth Princess hadn’t co to the banquet, surely the palace maids would inform her of the events at the banquet, and she must have learned of his words earlier from them, which is why she ca especially dressed up to see him.
"This Yan Kingdom Sixth Princess..."
Kong Qing’s eyes were fixated, and next to him, ng Xing whispered, "Rarely seen earthly beauty."
For a mber of the ng family, speaking so directly, for ng Xing to call soone a rarely seen earthly beauty, one can only imagine how stunning Murong Yan is today.
Lin Chen’s eyes also contained a hint of amazent, he knew Murong Yan was very beautiful, an undeniable earthly enchantress, but at this mont, Murong Yan’s grand appearance, adding a touch of lazy elegance in her noble magnificence, two completely different auras on one person, made her stunningly captivating.
Murong Yan also saw the hint of astonishnt in Lin Chen’s eyes, feeling secretly pleased, it was worth dressing up elaborately for this, the flower pastille at the corner of her eyes lightly rose with her smile.
"Six..."
This smile from Murong Yan made Su Zhe believe she was looking at him, just as he was about to speak, Murong Yan was one step ahead, smiling, "Fifth Sister, don’t bla Senior Brother Lin, he truly can’t hold his drink, don’t be fooled by the fact that he’s a martial artist, last ti he drank with , he was drunk after one cup."
Murong Yan smiled sweetly as she walked towards Lin Chen, and her address "Senior Brother Lin" made everyone’s expressions on-site turn strange.
The Sixth Princess knows Lin Chen?
"Is... is that true?"
Murong Xin forced a smile, not knowing if what Sixth Sister said was true or false, but she indeed needed such a step to back down.
"Yes, a martial artist who can’t handle one cup of wine, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed it either."
At this mont, Murong Yan had already walked up to Lin Chen, Kong Qing sensibly made way, having already seen that the Sixth Princess has a deep connection with Senior Brother Lin.
It had to be Senior Brother Lin, seeming indifferent to the banquet, yet in the end, both princesses ca towards him.
What does this an?
In his hotown’s words, a dog that barks doesn’t bite, those who won’t...
Bah!
Kong Qing quickly dismissed the thought from his mind, realizing such a taphor was disrespectful to Senior Brother Lin.
"Sixth Sister knows Young Master Lin?"
"Yes, I stayed for a while at Canglan Martial Arts Academy, and Senior Brother Lin took good care of ."
Murong Yan nodded, since she was already present, she didn’t plan to hide her relationship with Lin Chen, at least to let so people give up any notions of her.
