Chapter 420: Great Disrespect
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Feiyu had returned to her own s.h.i.+p, but she didn’t steer it away. Instead, she waited for Qian w.a.n.guan’s s.h.i.+p to depart before following behind. It was obvious that she had been frightened by the Black Wasps and felt that it was safest to follow behind Qian w.a.n.guan.
Qian w.a.n.guan was speechless. After sailing for a period of time, he simply asked for the s.h.i.+p to stop. Or else, he might just meet another familiar face which would be even more troublesome.
Jiang Yi didn’t bother about such troublesome matters and just peacefully comprehended the sorcery arts in his room. He didn’t even cultivate as the essence force required by the third star sphere was just too much. If he relied on simple cultivation, he might take a decade and still be unable to transform the third star sphere. He had no choice but to obtain more celestial stones back the Summer Rain City.
He stayed in the room for an entire day, studying the Myriad Clone sorcery arts. Jiang Yi had some small accomplishment as he could produce three clones, but he was still unable to control the clones. He understood that it was impossible to suddenly have a great result and required slow and steady progress.
The sky turned dark, and the other s.h.i.+ps should have eliminated the Black Wasps that were attacking them. Qian w.a.n.guan gave the orders for them to return to the original island. Those boats were all money, and if the Black Wasps appeared over there, then the nest should be in the nearby vicinity.
Swis.h.!.+
Right at this moment, a figure flew over from Xia Feiyu’s s.h.i.+p. A Xia Clan’s expert yelled out, “Orders from the Princess! Princess Yun Fei, Young Master w.a.n.guan, Young Master Wushuang, and Qian Daye were invited over for a banquet!”
Qian w.a.n.guan, Zhan Wushuang, and Yun Fei were currently having some tea and were about to start their meal. When they heard this summon, they all had a turn in expression. This banquet was definitely nothing good.
“I’m not going, just say that I am still sick.”
Yun Fei didn’t have any good impression of Xia Feiyu. She simply stood up with a dark face and returned to her room. Zhan Wushuang shook his hand and followed Yun Fei while saying, “If Yun Fei is not going, then I’m not going, too. It would be much comfortable eating here.”
“…”
Qian w.a.n.guan rolled his eyes. He had just pretended to be extremely weak in the morning, and if he was to attend the banquet now, it would surely be noticed by Xia Feiyu. The Princess had invited them, but none of them were going to attend? This was a huge humiliation, and what would Xia Feiyu think?
Zhan Wushuang and Yun Fei had already entered their rooms; hence, he had no choice but to go over to Jiang Yi’s room. He knocked on the door and said, “Boss, Xia Feiyu arranged a banquet and asked for you to go. Why not…?”
“Not going!”
As expected, Jiang Yi’s indifferent voice echoed. Qian w.a.n.guan grew nervous as he spoke softly, “Boss, you are now a servant of the Qian Clan. If the Princess invites you—and you don’t attend, it would be hard to explain, right?”
“Settle it yourself!”
Jiang Yi still replied with an indifferent voice. This time, he opened the doors and took an apathetic look at Qian w.a.n.guan. “Xia Feiyu has rather good looks, and she might be lonely. If you are to attend the banquet yourself, you might have to chance to kiss her.”
Kiss her, my a.s.s!
Qian w.a.n.guan smiled bitterly and said, “Boss, I almost died from being too weak in the morning. Who would believe that I had recovered in a single day? Why don’t you go convince Yun Fei and Big Brother Wushuang? Get them to go to the banquet; otherwise, Xia Feiyu would lose all her face if no one attended. Furthermore, you are now a servant of the Qian Clan. How can a servant reject the decree of a Princess? Boss, you are making things difficult for me.”
“Sigh!”
Jiang Yi had a headache and finally shook his head. “Alright. I will go for a spin and see what kind of tricks this Xia Feiyu is up to.”
As he finished his statement, Jiang Yi immediately left. Qian w.a.n.guan quickly pulled him back, “My dear Boss, are you going to attend the banquet like this? You have to wear something presentable, right?”
“Wear something presentable, my a.s.s!”
Jiang Yi grunted as he simply wore a normal warrior’s robe and strutted out. He quickly flew over to Xia Feiyu’s s.h.i.+p by himself. He was then led by the Xia Clan’s servant to a small hall in the cabin.
Xia Feiyu attended the banquet with splendid clothes as she wore this gorgeous palace dress. Her collar was especially low-cut, and everyone could see a deep cleavage. Her hair was dressed-up high with two streaks of long hair running down her temples. It was decorated with a purple gold hairpin which gave off brilliant radiance so bright that no one dared to look directly at her.
When she saw that Jiang Yi came back himself, she didn’t look surprised and had this slight smile which made her look even more mesmerizing.
“Greetings to Your Highness!”
Jiang Yi bowed slightly and actually didn’t kneel. He spoke in a rather respectful tone, “My Young Clan Head is still ill. Princess Yun Fei was frightened by yesterday’s incident, and Young Master Wushuang is accompanying her. I have come over to give Your Highness an apology.”
“Oh… it is this Princess that is too presumptuous!”
Xia Feiyu gave a slight smile and didn’t bother about the lack of formalities shown by Jiang Yi. She suddenly dismissed the servants and gestured with her jade hands while saying, “Qian Daye, come and sit. Since they aren’t coming, we will eat ourselves.”
“This…”
Jiang Yi let out this awkward expression and shook his head. “This servant has a lowly status. How will I dare to sit along with Your Highness? This servant should better return first. Many thanks for the kindness from Your Highness.”
“Sit!”
Xia Feiyu sudden got serious and let out an aura presence that showcased her prowess even when she wasn’t angered. She spoke resolutely, “If this Princess asks you to sit, you should sit. What? Do you want to disobey my orders?”
d.a.m.n…
Jiang Yi originally just wanted to casually do put on a show. Right now, it was impossible to stop. He gritted his teeth and sat on one of the wooden chairs in this small hall. He looked at the table of delicacies and couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
“Ke-Ke!”
Xia Feiyu then restored that smile on her face and sat opposite of Jiang Yi. Her eyes were glistening with radiance as though it was affection as she spoke, “Qian Daye, this Princess always thinks that a hero isn’t defined by their origins. You are strong and are only of the cornerstone of my Divine Martial Kingdom. After going back, this Princess will definitely speak to my King father and bestow you the position of a general.”
Here it is again!
Jiang Yi sighed slightly in his heart. He knew that Xia Feiyu had the same motives as that Ling Yue, but she did it a bit more convincingly. She was Qian w.a.n.guan’s superior in name, which meant that she was also his superior. Jiang Yi didn’t want to expose his ident.i.ty; hence, he had no choice but to feign civility and accompany Xia Feiyu.
He was filled with inspiration as his eyes suddenly turned l.u.s.tful as he started at Xia Feiyu’s exposed cleavage and giggled. “Many thanks for Princess’ good intention. But… I have been a wild person since young, and I don’t like becoming an official because of the rules. Hehe, compared to having authority, Daye likes beauties more.”
“Qian Daye, you are too libidinous.”
Even if Xia Feiyu was scheming, she couldn’t maintain her calm. Her eyes flashed with anger before she abruptly smiled and said, “If this was a normal day, I would have deemed you as greatly disrespectful. However, this Princess is in a good mood today; and I will forgive you this time. Qian Daye, as long as you serve the kingdom well, are you afraid you wouldn’t get beauties? Shall I get my King Father to bestow you a few beautiful concubines after I return?”
“Hehe, that would be for the best!”
Jiang Yi rudely picked up a pork shoulder with his hand and munched on it. He then took another closer look at Xia Feiyu’s deep cleavage. He even swallowed his saliva with exaggeration before saying, “If they are as beautiful as Your Highness, then it would be even better. Hehe!”
Is this person Jiang Yi or not?
Xia Feiyu was very suspicious. How could Jiang Yi have such l.u.s.tful eyes and so perverted? How could he be so utterly crude?
If he wasn’t Jiang Yi, what explanation was there for this morning’s incident? Could Qian w.a.n.guan have truly released that bizarre ability?
No! Qian clansmen never liked to practice the martial arts. Qian w.a.n.guan’s strength is so weak. Even if someone gave him a powerful ability, he would never be able to learn it!
Xia Feiyu was determined in her thoughts. Jiang Yi looked too familiar, and the Ma.s.sacre Intent was also a huge suspicion. Could his l.u.s.tful eyes be a pretense? Was he wearing a man-tier mask?
Xia Feiyu’s heart s.h.i.+vered while she let out an even more mesmerizing smile. Her eyes flickered as she suddenly had an idea. It was actually very simple to prove whether Qian Daye was Jiang Yi!
