Chapter 868 Who will go and tell Princess Tianzhen?
Before the trip, Tang Ya had told Ye Nanxiao that she wanted to play, so Ye Nanxiao didn't rush back for Tang Clan's next match. Bei Bei and the others still had seven people, but the agility-based assassins were replaced by two control-based assassins, and a different tactic was used.
After undergoing a bloodline baptism and evolution, Tang Ya also embarked on the path of dual-element cultivation, focusing on the control element, but her combat ability was enough to contend with powerful attack-type soul masters of the same level.
Perhaps due to the legends and stories about the ancestors within the sect since childhood, Tang Ya's weapon, in addition to a whip formed from Blue Silver Grass, can also be formed from a long spear.
The baptism of the Blue Silver Emperor's essence blood endowed Tang Ya's martial soul with the characteristic of being hard, comparable to a weapon of the level of hundred-forged refined steel.
Under Huo Yuhao's mental probing, Tang Ya was practically a reincarnation of the Tree God. Her evolved blue silver vines took root and grew throughout the entire area, twisting and altering the terrain. She also used her superb hidden weapon skills to weave between the vine attacks or to launch hidden weapons from the vines.
The opponents were a first-class academy team from the Sun Moon Empire, but due to the distorted terrain, they were unable to utilize their core soul-guided weapon turret tactics. The wildly dancing vines and the massive blue-silver body that was as tall as a three-story building, along with the storm of hidden weapons, left them with no time to prepare and forced them to spread out to maintain their formation.
"Everyone! Buy me some time! I'm about to unleash my ultimate attack!"
Tang Ya clasped her hands together, her eyes burning with fighting spirit, and several vines bloomed and coalesced behind her.
Tang Clan's Hundred Hidden Weapon Techniques, Ultimate Skill: Thousand-Handed Asura.
The vines growing on the field are all her hands and feet.
With the Thousand Hands Asura, he executes the Hundred Disarming Techniques!
May the light of the Tang Clan shine once more!
"Beibei, let's go underground from now on. The sect leader is too powerful. I'm afraid if you get carried away with your soul tool, I might end up hanging from a tree and having to reflect on my actions!" Xu Sanshi said to Beibei while blocking the soul tool beams coming from the opposite side, his voice tinged with fear.
Seeing his wife's fierceness, Beibei swallowed hard.
"It's alright, you slut. My wife loves me and is sensible. She definitely knows you're the one who corrupted me!"
"Your brother, Mr. Bei, has thick eyebrows and big eyes! He's cunning, isn't he! Old Black Bei!"
With their tactics outmaneuvering the opponent, the Tang Clan fought for half an hour and emerged victorious.
Wang Dong'er clearly sensed that Huo Yuhao's condition was off during the match, so she pulled him aside and asked, "Yuhao, did that emperor come to you and say something? I feel like you're not behaving properly!"
Huo Yuhao didn't hide anything from Wang Dong'er and reluctantly nodded in acknowledgment.
He still harbored resentment towards Xu Tianran's comment, "You don't understand Nanxiao."
So it turns out that the relationship between the two brothers has actually become quite distant?
After listening patiently, Wang Dong'er covered her mouth and laughed, then reached out and ruffled Huo Yuhao's hair. "You're overthinking things! When will Ye Huli's feelings grow cold? He'll just find you utterly repulsive!"
"Ye Fox will always be Ye Fox. Don't overthink it. If you really get rusty, you won't be able to sneak into that guy's underground lab."
Ye Huli would dislike her but not Huo Yuhao; that's how the fox made no attempt to hide it. However, that was just talk; she would still come to help when needed.
He wrecked so many of Ye Fox's toy cars, and all he got was punished by having to sweep the floor.
"Yuhao, you're overthinking it. How can you be swayed by just a few words from an outsider? Come on, give me a smile!"
Wang Dong'er reached out and tugged at Huo Yuhao's cheek muscles, making him laugh.
Looking at Wang Dong'er's innocent smile, Huo Yuhao felt completely healed.
Oh my gosh, even the domineering Dong'er is so cute~
Mud sauce? Forget it, I'll stop thinking about it for now!
No, it should be said that we should ask him when he gets back, and heal himself first until then!
The Shadow Guard acted swiftly, delivering the message to the Sun and Moon Royal Family.
The few remaining elders of the Sun and Moon royal family felt a headache coming on when they saw the message Xu Tianran delivered.
An old man asked, "How many princesses of suitable age are left in our clan?"
Another old man quickly answered his question: "Aside from the princesses who are already married and those who are not yet of marriageable age, all that's left is innocence."
Upon hearing this, the elders fell silent. The Sun and Moon Royal Family was not declining in number; on the contrary, their population had been steadily increasing year by year.
It's just that the male-to-female ratio is a bit outrageous.
The ratio was almost eight to two.
Having offspring is a good thing, but it can be a bit awkward when it comes to marriage alliances.
"How about finding suitable girls from other branches?" an old man suggested. "If that's naive, then forget it. I'm afraid His Majesty's important matter will be ruined!"
The current princess of the Sun and Moon royal family who is of suitable age, Xu Tianzhen, is titled Princess Tianzhen. She was deeply loved by the late emperor and grew up in a pampered environment. She is a rare princess who was allowed to grow up freely.
How much was Princess Tianzhen favored?
Even Xu Tianran, the current Emperor of the Sun and Moon, shows him some care.
Perhaps Xu Tianzhen was too naive, but Xu Tianran felt there was no threat.
"His Majesty issued this decree because he intends for Princess Tianzhen to be involved in the marriage alliance. Otherwise, why would he hastily bestow a title upon a princess now? But there's not enough time, and doing so arbitrarily would make our Sun Moon Royal Family appear petty!"
Upon hearing this, the elderly men fell into deep thought again.
They were thinking about a more important question.
"Who will go tell Little Innocent?"
"Oh dear, I've recently been blessed with a new grandson! I'll take my leave now!"
"I suddenly remembered that there's an account in the clan that needs to be settled yesterday! This matter can't be delayed!"
"I'll go check if the materials I ordered from Tianhun have arrived yet. Ugh, I've been so busy lately!"
The old man who raised the question became anxious as he watched the other old men walk away briskly. What kind of person was the innocent princess of the Sun and Moon Royal Family?
That was a tyrant who, relying on the favor of two emperors, ran rampant in the palace!
If this little darling knew that he was going to be married off, wouldn't he turn the entire palace upside down?
No way! I'm only in my seventies! I'm still young!
The latest novel is first published here!
I've only just started grooming my beard!
We need to find a scapegoat!
Xu Renjie is a rising star among the Sun Moon Royal Family. At the age of ten, he has passed the assessment of a Level 4 Soul Master and is also cultivating the ability to control Soul Tools. He has a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks righteous. He is 1.5 meters tall and has a slender and upright figure.
Today, he originally came to the palace to find his teacher, an elder of the Hall of Worship, to hand in his homework.
Upon entering the palace, Xu Renjie bumped into a clan elder with a worried expression. Well-versed in royal etiquette, he immediately stepped forward, bowed, and greeted him, "Greetings, Clan Elder!"
"Hmm?!" This clan elder was the one who was struggling with how to convey the news of the royal family's proposed marriage to Xu Tianzhen.
Looking at the obedient Xu Renjie in front of him, a perfect plan gradually emerged in his mind.
"Child, which branch are you from? I am the fifth elder of my clan." The fifth elder said with a smile, his face full of kindness.
Upon hearing this, Xu Renjie obediently replied, "I am Xu Renjie, from the seventh branch."
"Oh, the younger generation of the Seventh Prince! They are all enthusiastic, kind, and very talented youngsters!" The Fifth Elder chuckled and patted Xu Renjie on the shoulder. "Child, I see you are destined for great things. Keep up the good work and grow into a towering tree to share His Majesty's burdens!"
Xu Renjie's face was ruddy, and his eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit. "Yes! I will do my best! To share His Majesty's burdens! To share the burdens of my clan!"
The elder of the Five Clans rolled his eyes, then suddenly said with sorrow and worry, "Elder Five, there are two things I need to attend to, but they cannot be done at the same time. Child, can I trust you?"
Xu Renjie patted his chest, looking confident, and said, "Please rest assured, elders, Renjie will do his utmost to carry out the mission! I'm very clever!"
Seeing Xu Renjie's determined expression and determination to complete the mission, the Five Elders smiled with satisfaction. This child is truly honest!
Having said all that, the Five Elders no longer concealed their true intentions.
"Child, the Five Elders are about to give you a task. Take the Five Elders' token and go to the referee's table at the competition venue to find the Vice Minister. Tell him that His Majesty needs to deliver a decree to Princess Tianzhen and asks him to go with you!" The Five Elders said softly, while rubbing Xu Renjie's little head.
Xu Renjie nodded, carefully accepting the token from the Five Elders, his eyes shining with joy.
Seeing Xu Renjie's excited yet cautious demeanor, the Fifth Elder felt a pang of shame. However, when he thought of Xu Tianzhen, who had once caused such chaos in the palace, he hardened his heart.
He certainly didn't want his beard to be plucked out.
Xu Renjie took the token but didn't rush to Sun and Moon Square to find Xu Tianzhen. Instead, he went to the Hall of Offerings to hand in his homework first, and then asked his teacher about the task given to him by the Five Elders.
Xu Renjie's teacher thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "If you go directly, you're very likely to get a beating from Princess Tianzhen. After all, this child was spoiled by the late emperor, and His Majesty also dotes on her."
After learning about Xu Tianzhen's glorious achievements, Xu Renjie pondered for a while before running outside the city to purchase many portraits of Ye Nanxiao from a branch of the Tang Clan.
As the leading figure among the younger generation, Ye Nanxiao was someone Xu Renjie knew quite a bit about.
After purchasing the portrait, Xu Renjie's plan was complete. He went to Sun and Moon Square, and with the token of the Five Elders, he made his way backstage and onto the judges' platform.
The Vice Minister of Rites was sitting on the stage, silently watching the competition unfold, when he suddenly saw a child holding the token of the Sun and Moon Clan Elder approaching him. After hearing the mission description, he immediately understood that he was there to protect Xu Renjie from being beaten by the Innocent Princess, not to announce the imperial decree.
"Vice Minister Wu, just watch the next move. I'll personally carry it out!" Xu Renjie said confidently.
Although Vice Minister Wu was worried, he could only nod and obey.
