Chapter 31.1: Ninth Princess Xin Yan

That was really what people would call true blazing speed!

Qing Yu wiped off the pale white fluorescent powder off her face and with a light wave of her fingers, the thick human arm immediately changed greatly.

She brought it up to her mouth and chomped a bite off the delicious and refreshing, highly juicy 'Buddha's Hand' fruit'. "What a timid little fella."

But, mm, she would be left alone now.

Thinking about that, she smiled. Under the moonlight, that pretty little face showed a rare moment of innocence and looked so adorable.

"Yawn~" Qing Yu gave a great yawn. "Back to sleep."

She usually followed a rather regular pattern when it came to resting and she was rather late tonight.

She went into her room and closed the door, the outside a swathe of silence once again.

—— Water Edge Kingdom ——

Around the sides of a large rounded arena stage, were many young men and women, their faces filled with restrained excitement and adoration.

"Go go go, Ninth Princess!"

"Sweet Heavens. The Ninth Princess should be only sixteen this year I think, and compared to just a month ago, her cultivation seems to have advanced again!"

"She's our Water Edge Kingdom's most talented young lady indeed!"

'Bam!' A figure slammed heavily into the guard rails around the edge of the arena, and vomited out a large mouthful of blood.

"I've lost." It was a man that was over twenty years old, his clothes highly ragged, the expression on his face dejected.

His eyes remain lowered as an exquisitely made pair of white ankle boots came to a stop before him. He was startled a moment as he lifted his head, and seeing that lovely and beautiful countenance so close to him, it caused the man's face that was in a slightly wretched state unconsciously start to turn red.

A lake blue flowy long dress, with a thin strapped white patterned bustier inside, bundled around a tiny slender waist. With her back bent right in front of him, that almost discernible cleavage was impossibly alluring, her figure causing the man to stare straight at her, unable to take his eyes off.

Her head of luxurious black hair draped over her shoulders, with wisps of the hair beside her temples a light lake blue, and she had a pair of large eyes that were full of life, their irises blue as well, inherited from her maternal side, a symbol of one who was of legitimate bloodline, that was rare to see even in a hundred years.

Her skin was snowy white, seemingly almost ephemerally beautiful, looking highly quick witted and intelligent, a rare beauty with pressing spiritual aura.

"Not too bad. This time, you've managed to last through the period of one joss stick's time. You've improved." Yue Xin Yan said smilingly, her eyes two crescents as she pointed at the incense thurible placed up on the high platform, to see that the joss stick had just burned out.

The man was taken aback a moment, seemingly not having ever thought that he would be able to last past that one joss stick's time.

Yue Xin Yan was not bothered by his raggedness as she patted him on his shoulder. "Practice your cultivation well. When the day comes that you are able to last through three joss stick's time at my hands, I will plead with my royal brother, to have you released."

The man's expression turned to shock. "Why are you helping me?"

"Because you are different from the others." Yue Xin Yan said as she raised her eyes to gaze indifferently, towards a sharp roofed building. Locked up in there, were all intruders who had attempted to barge their way into the mysterious Water Edge Kingdom.

The man looked at her in surprise. "Ho….."

"You want to ask me how I know that?" Yue Xin Yan smiled. "When you become stronger, you might even be able to gaze upon that man whom you worship at close distance!"

This man had intruded into the Water Edge Kingdom, not to delve into the amazing magic in here or to seek the endless riches they possessed, but only because of the G.o.d of slaughter that everyone throughout the lands was terrified of, the Duke of Vast Seas.

He had been imprisoned in here for more than two months, and had only seen the man in the legends once, from a far distance away.

And it was that one time, when his eyes were filled with undisguised fervour and worship, that made Yue Xin Yan look at him differently. The man had great foresight and vision, and she was able to help him.
