Chapter 663: Imperial Capital Envoy (2)
The barren land attracts a new group of guests.
A procession of hundreds of people swaggered into the barren land, and a lavish carriage was escorted by everyone in the center.
A delicate and wealthy young man in the carriage opened the window and looked out the window, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Is this the Wasteland? It's not like that, it's not that the barren land is dangerous, but I haven't seen any demons attack. After the little boy sat down, he snorted disdainfully.
There were still two people sitting in the carriage, and a middle-aged man in his forties looked at the little boy with a flattering smile and said, "Your Highness, although the barren land is dangerous, there is a national teacher by your side, and the power of the national teacher is so powerful that no demon dares to approach it at all." After speaking, the middle-aged man nodded quite flatteringly at the old man in the car who was over half a hundred years old and had a fairy wind and bones.
The middle-aged man was Li Qi, the special envoy sent by the Longxuan Empire to the barren land, and he almost didn't cry when he knew that he was going to be sent to this place where birds don't and there are demons everywhere.
As a result, I didn't expect that the only son of the current emperor, the prince of Long Yue, actually asked to go along, and the emperor refused to agree at first, but then he couldn't resist Long Yue's insistence, so he let the national teacher Pei Yuan accompany him, and allowed Long Yue to go to the barren land.
The people who have divine beasts in the Longxuan Empire are all very important, the five great families are, and so is Pei Yuan, so this time the emperor asked Pei Yuan to come with Long Yue to ensure the safety of the prince.
Pei Yuan glanced at Li Qi lightly and was noncommittal.
"The national teacher is naturally powerful, but I don't know what kind of goods the little girl named Shen Yanxiao in Lu Dao is, and she can actually build a city in a barren land." Long Yue was fifteen years old, and he was very surprised when he heard that a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old could actually build a city in such a place as a barren land.
"Shen Yanxiao is a member of the Vermilion Bird family, but we are not present at this academy competition, as for what is going on, we don't know." Li Qi smiled and spoke, revealing a dog's leg between his words.
"Oh? Could it be that the Suzaku family bought off the other players? Long Yue could hear the cattiness in Li Qi's tone.
"I didn't say that." Although Li Qi said this, both his expression and tone seemed to confirm Long Yue's guess.
Which of the academy competitions came out of the elite of each academy, that Shen Yanxiao was only thirteen years old, how could he be able to compete with the elite of the whole country, no one in the imperial capital believed that this was Shen Yanxiao's own strength, and everyone secretly laughed that all this was Shen Feng, the head of the Vermilion Bird family, who secretly manipulated the game in order to add glory to the Vermilion Bird family.
"I'm just a straw bale." Long Yue snorted disdainfully.
"That is, how can such a yellow-haired girl compare with you, Your Highness? If it weren't for the Emperor's disapproval of His Highness's participation in the Academy Competition, otherwise the number one in this Academy Competition would definitely be yours. Li Qi was busy patting his ass, coaxing the future emperor, and only then did he have a good way out.
"By the way, I heard that Shen Yanxiao's girl sent a letter to her father that she had successfully entered the sunset?" Long Yue has always been high, even among his peers, he is absolutely the best, he has always felt that his talent is the strongest among his peers, and he can't accept that someone surpasses him at all.
