Chapter 143 Crown Prince Xu Tianran, the Banquet Begins.
In the original novel, there weren't many people with the surname Long.
Yun Ze had some guesses about the identity of the girl in the black dress before him, Long Xi.
The reason Yun Ze had approached her earlier wasn't to strike up a conversation, but because he had heard Long Xi's voice in his mind, as if she were inviting him.
Although somewhat puzzled, he knew that Long Xi didn't seem to have any hostility.
However, Yun Ze still didn't know Long Xi's true purpose.
It didn't matter; he could continue to interact with her.
"Okay." Responding to Long Xi, Yun Ze raised his wine glass and clinked it against hers again. The latter drank the wine in her glass in one gulp, then gracefully departed like a night elf.
The area Long Xi went to was a fairly large place, mostly populated by young people, but not noble children; rather, they were ordinary geniuses.
Clearly, these people had no powerful backing, but their talent was considerable, making them targets for many princes to win over.
Yunze was different from them. Because of Jiang Moyan and Wang Chen, Yunze's reputation had spread among the noble youths. Many nobles knew that this exceptionally handsome young man had a close relationship with Meng Hongchen, and that he had come to the banquet with Meng Hongchen's family. This meant he was essentially a member of the Mingde Hall.
The Mingde Hall was an absolutely neutral force in the Sun Moon Empire, not allied with any prince, serving only the current emperor.
It was precisely because of this relationship that, although Yunze and his companions were in an area inhabited by a prince's faction, no one had driven them away.
"Xiaoze, who was that girl just now?" Meng Hongchen asked casually, leaning closer to Yunze.
"She's probably just a talented young woman; I'm not really sure," Yunze replied.
"Oh,"
Meng Hongchen nodded, then changed the subject, "Do you think she's pretty?"
"Very beautiful, especially her temperament, she's one of the most unique girls I've ever met," Yunze said, adding before Meng Hongchen could respond, "But compared to you, she's still far inferior."
"I don't think so, she's really beautiful, especially her...well, you know~" Meng Hongchen said with a smile.
Yunze pulled Meng Hongchen into his arms without hesitation, "But I like your size."
Meng Hongchen's pretty face flushed slightly, a happy smile spreading across her face as she nestled in Yunze's embrace.
Many noblemen who witnessed this scene were all displeased. With such a stunning girlfriend as Meng Hongchen, how could so many beautiful girls still actively approach him?
Looking at themselves, their status and family backgrounds were also good, but they were surrounded by men!
Damn it!
Yunze's good looks were indeed a very powerful weapon. Even with Xia Mingyue's example as a warning, many girls still actively approached Yunze to chat.
Of course, Yunze remained polite, politely declining each of their advances.
In the distance, Xia Mingyue had been keeping a close eye on Yunze's situation. Seeing these girls being rejected just like herself made her feel much better.
"Hmph, so what if you have a girlfriend? What I, Xia Mingyue, want, I will definitely get!" Xia Mingyue snorted inwardly, her eyes flashing with a dangerous light as she looked at Yunze.
Don't let her sweet and charming appearance fool you; those who know her know that she's a complete little devil. That gentle and charming demeanor just now was completely an act!
At the forefront, nobles frequently came to greet Jing Hongchen, but his responses were much more perfunctory than Yun Ze's, yet no one uttered any gossip.
This was Jing Hongchen's nature; currently, apart from the Sun Moon Emperor, the Hall Master Kong Deming, the Head of the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Group Xu Tianyuan, and Crown Prince Xu Tianran, he didn't take anyone else seriously.
It could be said that Jing Hongchen's status in the Sun Moon Empire belonged to the very top tier.
"Is that little guy Xiao Meng's boyfriend?" Beside Jing Hongchen, a dark-skinned middle-aged man, holding a wine glass, asked with a smile.
Jing Hongchen nodded casually, gently swirling his wine glass. He briefly clinked it against the middle-aged man's, then took a sip. "What do you think of him?"
"I heard from Mo Yan that he's extremely strong. Even he and Wang Chen couldn't force him to unleash his martial soul. His swordsmanship talent is also exceptional; he seems to have reached an unbelievable level at such a young age. Moreover, he recently passed the Level 3 Soul Master assessment. His talent as both a Soul Master and a Soul Master is astonishing, not to mention his handsome appearance. He's truly a darling of heaven," the middle-aged man said.
"What, are you interested? Want to recruit him into your Imperial Dragon Soul Master Corps?" Jing Hongchen said indifferently.
"Forget it. He's your Hongchen family's designated grandson-in-law. If you send him to me, you'll probably tear my place down," the middle-aged man chuckled.
The middle-aged man before him, whose appearance was neither particularly handsome nor stern, was an extremely dangerous individual.
Within him flowed the same bloodline as the current emperor.
Xu Tianyuan, the leader of the Royal Dragon Soul Instructor Corps directly under the Royal Family, is not only a Title Douluo powerhouse but also a genuine Level 9 Soul Instructor!
He is slightly younger than Jing Hongchen, but his cultivation level is almost the same, lacking only Soul Guidance Talent.
Although both are Level 9 Soul Instructors, Xu Tianyuan can at most fight against a Level 97 Super Douluo, while Jing Hongchen can rival a Level 98 Super Douluo.
Even though it's only a level difference, it's still a huge gap in the Super Douluo realm.
"Hey, my precious niece has finally come out!" Suddenly, a doting look appeared in Xu Tianyuan's eyes. Jing Hongchen followed his gaze and saw dozens of figures walking out of the side hall.
Among them, there was only one man, and the rest were women.
Walking at the front was an exquisitely dressed girl. Her appearance couldn't be described as stunningly beautiful, but she gave off a mischievous and clever feeling.
She wore an exquisite and beautiful gown. Unlike most noble girls' floor-length skirts, hers was shorter, just past her knees.
Her long hair was held in place by a special crimson-gold crown, making her already radiant beauty shine like a blazing sun.
Many noble youths were initially stunned upon seeing her face, then their eyes gleamed.
Although the girl looked no more than eleven or twelve years old, what concerned them more than her age was her identity!
The only beloved daughter of the current emperor, Princess Tianzhen, Xu Tianzhen!
However, many noble youths also focused their gaze on the young man Xu Tianzhen was leading, the only male among the dozens of beautiful figures.
Yun Ze's gaze also fell on this young man.
He looked to be in his early twenties, with dark skin and handsome features, but more importantly, he was sitting in a wheelchair!
"Is he the Crown Prince of the Sun and Moon?" Yun Ze murmured to himself.
"Yes, it's him, Xu Tianran," Meng Hongchen whispered, nestled in Yun Ze's arms.
