Chapter 86: Crown Prince of Liyang, Zhao Yi

As the carriage slowly drove over, a handsome man in luxurious clothes alighted. This person had the natural appearance of a ruler and an extraordinary temperament. There was a smile on his lips, but he could give people an invisible pressure.

“Eh… Human providence.” In the sky, Ye Qiu was stunned for a moment as he carefully looked at this person.

He carried a strand of providence on him. It was the providence of the Liyang Dynasty. Although it was not much, it could still reveal his identity.

“Crown Prince of Liyang, interesting…” Ye Qiu smiled and still didn’t come down. He wanted to see how Xiao Yi would deal with it.

When he saw the Crown Prince of Liyang, Zhao Yi, Tuoba Hong’s eyes lit up. He knew that the person in charge had arrived. If Ye Qiu didn’t give them face, then he should give some face to the Crown Prince of Liyang, right?

He looked up at the sky and was disappointed. Ye Qiu still hadn’t come down.

Xiao Yi’s heart trembled when he saw Zhao Yi and the experts behind him. He suddenly felt a little afraid.

“Oh my god, why did we alert the Crown Prince? Do they know each other?”

Xiao Yi heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at Ye Qiu in the air. Fortunately, the big shot was still around. Then, I had to act until the end.

Zhao Yi slowly walked over and felt that the atmosphere was a little off. He looked up at the sky. He muttered, “Who is this person? Why do I have a feeling that I can’t see through him at all?”

The expert behind him reminded, “Your Highness, this person’s strength is unfathomable. His aura is stronger than mine. Be careful. Recently, the Great Desolate World hasn’t been peaceful. The experts of the various immortal holy lands have all left the mountain. Perhaps this person is one of them.”

Zhao Yi nodded. Although he was a prince, that was only to the commoners. For these ancient orthodoxies that had been passed down since then, Liyang had only lasted for a few thousand years. In the long years, countless generations have changed.

As long as they were willing to interfere in the matters of the mortal realm, the so-called dynasty could be changed with a flick of their fingers.

As the Crown Prince, he knew these principles very well. Therefore, he was not as arrogant as the others. Instead, he was very humble.

Zhao Yi looked at Tuoba Hong in front of him and slowly said, “Prince Hong, long time no see! A few days ago, I received news from the spy that the two of you had already entered the Liyang border. My father specially sent me out of the palace to welcome you. Are the two of you in trouble?”

At this moment, Zhao Yi realized that Xiao Yi had a conflict with them.

“Haha, Your Highness, you’re overthinking. There’s no trouble. It’s our first time here, and we just accidentally offended this young master. Things will be easier to handle now that you are here. I hope that Your Highness can put in a good word for us and see if this young master can forgive our rashness just now.” Tuoba Hong said humbly as if he was very reasonable.

Xiao Yi was amused. If Ye Qiu hadn’t been there just now, they would have drawn their swords and killed him. Besides, who would make someone kneel the moment they met?

When Zhao Yi heard this, he turned around and sized up Xiao Yi. He was very sure that he did not know this fellow. He only asked politely, “Brother, may I know your name? Where are you from and which immortal mountain you cultivate on?”

Xiao Yi’s aura didn’t decrease. He imitated Ye Qiu’s usual style and said calmly, “Guangling, Xiao Yi…”

“Guangling Xiao Yi?” Zhao Yi was stunned. He seemed to have heard this name before. He seemed to be a profligate son of the Guangling Xiao family. This made things easier. If his background was too great, it would indeed be difficult for Zhao Yi to deal with him. Since he was a member of the Xiao Clan, he shouldn’t not give him face.

“So it’s Young Master Xiao. I’ve heard a lot about you. I wonder how my two friends offended you. Can you forgive their rashness on my account?” Zhao Yi said with a smile. It had always been his style to be polite before resorting to force.

It was best not to use force if it could be resolved with words. Peace was the most important.

Xiao Yi looked a little troubled when he saw the Crown Prince pleading for them. This was the Crown Prince of Li Yang. If he didn’t give him face, wouldn’t the Xiao Clan be in trouble if Ye Qiu left them in the lurch? But if he gave it…

Yes, this is the Crown Prince. I can brag for a year if I don’t give him face.

“Alright, let them come over and kneel down to apologize. We’ll forget about this matter.”

“Kid, what did you say? You dare to make me kneel for you?” When Tuoba Xun heard this, he was furious. In his life, he had never knelt to anyone other than his father.

“Then there’s no room for negotiation, right?” Xiao Yi said unhappily. He was going all out today. As long as Ye Qiu didn’t let him stop, he had to act to the end. What was there to be afraid of when there’s such a big shot protecting him?

“Please don’t be angry. Peace is the most important.” Zhao Yi stopped them, feeling a little unhappy. He was already willing to lower himself to plead for mercy, but Xiao Yi still did not give him face.

“Uncle Feng, what do you think?” Zhao Yi took a step back and asked the old man behind him for his opinion.

Zhao Qifeng stroked his beard in an orderly manner. He looked at the two people who were at each other’s throats and said, “Your Highness, why don’t you ask what happened between them? You’ll naturally know what happened after understanding the ins and outs.”

Zhao Yi nodded. He had the same intention. Then, he walked to Tuoba Hong’s side and asked about what had just happened. After understanding it, he walked to Xiao Yi’s side and listened to his explanation.

Their explanations were different.

However, he felt that what Xiao Yi said was more logical. Tuoba Hong said that they had only accidentally offended Xiao Yi. But he did not explain what they had said.

On the other hand, Xiao Yi said that they wanted him to kneel and greet them as soon as they met. They were not citizens of the Oceanic, so why should he kneel and greet them? Xiao Yi did not even kneel to the Crown Prince of Liyang, let alone the prince of Oceanic.

Zhao Yi felt that Tuoba Xun was really too arrogant. Was it really a good thing to let his sister marry him?

There was no kinship in the royal family, only benefits. As the crown prince, Zhao Yi knew this problem very well, but he actually did not agree with this marriage alliance.

This was the behavior of a coward.

However, he was only the Crown Prince. The decision was still in his father’s hands. Even if he had any objections, he did not dare to mention it now. He could only wait for the day when it was his turn to be in charge. Only then would all of this change.

Zhao Wan’er had also escaped with his help because of the dissatisfaction in her heart. After understanding all of this, Zhao Yi became even more resistant to this marriage alliance, especially to someone like Tuoba Xun.

Zhao Wan’er future would definitely not be good if she married him.

Zhao Yi’s expression turned a little ugly after thinking it through. He slowly took a step back, not planning to interfere in this matter anymore.

“Your Highness, you are…” Tuoba Hong was at a loss after he realized Zhao Yi’s actions.

“Prince Hong, I already know what to do. Since it’s a personal grudge, you can settle it privately.”

“Liyang is a reasonable place. It’s fine as long as it makes sense. If it really doesn’t work, it’s not impossible to fight.” Zhao Yi smiled and slowly retreated to avoid being accidentally injured.
