Chapter 94: Liu Nanzhi’s Request

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Shen Ran was about to leave and return to his residence.

He was a little stunned to hear what the little maid had said.

The princess invites me?

Why is Liu Nanzhi looking for me so late at night?

Shen Ran, who was a little surprised, nodded and followed behind the little maid.

Soon, he saw Liu Nanzhi, who had already prepared tea in the side hall.

At this moment, Liu Nanzhi was sitting under the stone pavilion, shrouded in a layer of white moonlight.

She was like a beautiful fairy under the moon.

Even Shen Ran was captivated by her beauty.

“Your Highness Shen…”

Liu Nanzhi called a few times before Shen Ran regained his senses.

Feeling a little awkward, Shen Ran pretended to be calm and gasped in admiration, “The Ninth Princess is illuminated by the moonlight like a fairy in the sky, also like a graceful swan or swimming dragon. For a moment, I was captivated.”

Hearing such mushy praise, how could the inexperienced Liu Nanzhi withstand it?

Her face immediately turned red.

Liu Nanzhi rolled her eyes at Shen Ran shyly. “Your Highness Shen’s mouth has probably deceived many women.”

Shen Ran chuckled and quickly waved his hand.

“I have a problem, that is, I’m incapable of telling lies.”

Liu Nanzhi smiled and pushed a teacup to Shen Ran.

“I asked His Highness Shen Ran to come over at this late hour mainly because I want to make a deal with you.”

Shen Ran frowned. “What kind of deal?”

Liu Nanzhi’s eyes were like torches as she slowly said, “I’m sure Your Highness knows that this is the first time in tens of thousands of years that the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm has opened.

At that time, countless cultivators will enter, but I’m afraid all the large and small sects in the Southern Region will swarm out in full force.

I want to enter it to find a precious spiritual herb. I hope Your Highness can help take care of my people.”

Liu Nanzhi paused and spoke again.

“Your Highness Shen can be at ease. I’m not asking you to protect them all the time. I just want you to help them when they’re in danger.

If Your Highness is willing, then my Great Yan Dynasty is willing to offer 200,000 spiritual rocks in return!”

Hearing Liu Nanzhi’s words, Shen Ran came to a realization.

It seemed that the Great Yan Dynasty was going to take action this time.

After all, the Fallen Phoenix Hill Mystic Realm was in the precinct of Great Yan.

As the host, how could the Great Yan Dynasty not be tempted by such a treasure vault?

They would definitely send a large number of people into the mystic realm.

Presumably, all the members of the royal family of Great Yan would also enter.

The strength of people like Liu Chuanming was considered extraordinary in front of ordinary disciples.

But in front of a true prodigy, it seemed a little inadequate.

Currently, Liu Nanzhi was the only one in the entire Great Yan Dynasty who was only at the second level of the Illumination Realm.

It was somewhat impossible to compete with the other geniuses of the Southern Region in the mystic realm.

That was why she had the idea of looking for Shen Ran.

After thinking about it, Shen Ran felt that the pros of this matter were greater than the cons. He nodded and agreed on the spot.

“It’s a small matter. I agree.”

“That’s great!”

Liu Nanzhi immediately smiled, “With His Highness Shen Ran’s help, this trip to the mystic realm will definitely be smooth.”

“You’re welcome, Princess.”

Shen Ran smiled.

Then he chatted with Liu Nanzhi for a while before bidding farewell.

Before he left, Liu Nanzhi told him that the people of Great Yan would set off for the Fallen Phoenix Hill tomorrow.

After returning to his residence, Shen Ran began to sit cross-legged and cultivate.

…

The next day, as the vast sun rose in the sky, everything in the world was bathed in golden sunlight.

Shen Ran woke up from his cultivation.

He took Elder Qinghong’s carriage to the Great Yan Imperial Palace.

At this moment, huge treasure ships slowly rose into the sky above the palace.

Not long after Shen Ran arrived, he heard Liu Nanzhi’s voice transmission.

“His Highness Shen Ran arrived just in time.”

Immediately after, he saw Liu Nanzhi standing on the treasure ship.

Shen Ran smiled and greeted her.

Even Liu Nanzhi, the princess of the Great Yan Dynasty, could only ride on a treasure ship.

The main reason was that flying carriages like Shen Ran’s were extremely refined. Only people with prominent statuses would be bestowed by the sect.

Looking at Liu Nanzhi, who was squeezed into the crowd, Shen Ran smiled. “Ninth Princess, why don’t you take a ride with me?”

Standing at the top of the treasure ship, Liu Chuanming was delighted when he heard Shen Ran’s words.

Thinking of this, Liu Chuanming immediately pulled his sister’s wrist.

“Ninth Sister, look, there’s almost no room on the ship. Why don’t you sit in the same carriage as His Highness Shen Ran?!”

Before Liu Nanzhi could react, Liu Chuanming immediately pushed his sister off the treasure ship.

Immediately after, he formed a seal with both hands, and a layer of light enveloped the treasure ship.

“Big Brother!!”

“You—”

Seeing that her brother had actually pushed her off the boat, Liu Nanzhi was a little angry.

But her eyes were filled with embarrassment.

Finally, she entered Shen Ran’s carriage helplessly.

Seeing that Liu Chuanming was so capable, Shen Ran couldn’t help but give him a thumbs up in his heart.

Then he spoke to Elder Qinghong.

“Let’s go to the Fallen Phoenix Hill. The elders in the sect have probably been waiting for a long time.”

Elder Qinghong replied, “Yes, Your Highness!”

Immediately, the carriage slowly moved, and turned into a stream of light that disappeared into the sky above the Great Yan Imperial City.
