Chapter 413: Serve the Empire
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Jiang Yi didn’t have a good impression of Princess Ling Yue. It’s not only her, but he also loathed all the other princes and the other princess from the Ling Clan.
When the Demon Empress marched the demonic beast army on the Stellarsky City, these princes and princesses had all fled and left Ling Xue by herself to be buried along with Stellarsky City.
Jiang Yi might have ultimately become enemies with Ling Xue due to their different paths and opinions, but he still respected Ling Xue greatly. She was a weak lady that supported the Azure Dragon Empire by herself and even made the empire greater than it was before. Princess Ling Xue was indeed worthy to be that genius lady who the Emperor wished to be a man.
Back then, Ling Xue tried to use marriage to recruit him; but it didn’t succeed. Right now, Ling Yue was trying the same time. Jiang Yi naturally wouldn’t get tricked. Thus, he was acting crude to intimidate this princess. He was powerful, and if he wanted to forcefully take Ling Yue, he could kill her later and throw her into the sea. The Ling Clan wouldn’t even be able to find her corpse.
Ling Yue’s expression changed as expected, and her delicate body shook slightly while her eyes flashed with a trace of panic. However, Jiang Yi was surprised that she actually regained her composure quickly and continued to walk forward a few more steps before turning around with a smile. “Ling Yue has a good judgment for people since a young age. Daye is definitely not such a person.”
Seeing Ling Yue casually walked by herself, Jiang Yi shrugged his shoulders. Since he had nothing to do, he would like to see what kind of tricks was this princess up to.
The two of them continued to walk towards the sea, one at the front and one at the back. Ling Yue didn’t bother about Jiang Yi and continued walking at the front. Her fine black hair was drifting in the gentle breeze, giving off a faint fragrance. She had long and slender legs, with round and perky butt, giving her wonderful curves. Her noble aura that was acquired from a young age was very attractive to males.
Jiang Yi was indeed attracted to her, and his eyes were glancing at her butt without any restraint. While wearing the Hundred Transformation Mask, he had completely turned into another person. Jiang Yi’s inner demons seemed to be activated, and he looked very sinister and was oozing with an evil aura.
There was a saying that was very true in the ancient language!
A human was half an angel and half a devil. Most of the terrible and sinister humans actually had a kind side. For example, one could slaughter an entire city but would be merciful towards a single child. Many of those who were kindhearted and honest for their lives might have evil tendencies hidden in their hearts. Once it broke out, they would become devils and do things that they never imagined they would do.
Jiang Yi was like a changed man right now. After disguising himself for a period of time, he seemed to be addicted. Since most of the people here were his enemies, he didn’t have any psychological burden if he chose to act inappropriately. It was also good to be a devil occasionally, and he could vent out all the evil side of him that was repressed for many years.
Princess Ling Yue was feeling increasingly awkward as she continued walking. She might have some hidden agenda, but she was still a maiden and would still feel uncomfortable being stared by a man like this.
After walking several meters on grass plains, Ling Yue suddenly turned back to look at Jiang Yi and asked, “Qian Daye, is this Princess good-looking?”
Jiang Yi was distracted for a moment, but he immediately reacted and rubbed his nose while he grinned and replied, “Good!”
Princess Ling Yue’s eyes lit up as Jiang Yi’s rubbing of the nose and his grin were abnormally familiar. This was Jiang Yi’s habits, and Ling Yue had seen Jiang Yi a few times back at the Azure Dragon Empire. She was already quite familiar with his body figure; but right now, she had a deeper suspicion.
She took a closer look at Jiang Yi and suddenly walked a few steps towards him. She smiled like a fox and spoke softly, “Qian Daye, which part of this Princess is good-looking? Comparing me to my elder sister Ling Xue, who looks better?”
Not good!
Jiang Yi knew that his subconscious movements had given rise to Ling Yue’s suspicions. She mentioned Ling Xue with the obvious reasons of testing him as she wanted to see his expression and see if there were any traces of clues.
He naturally wasn’t going to give Ling Yue this opportunity. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, revealing this intoxicated look and lewd eyes while staring at her. “Princess Ling Xue? I have never seen her before, but I think Princess Ling Yue should be better-looking. Princess Ling Yue’s butt is the best butt I have ever seen.”
Bah!
Ling Yue’s expression changed was suddenly infuriated by how boorish Jiang Yi was. How vulgar and audacious was he? She was of an esteemed status; how could she tolerate being profaned like this? Normal influential clans’ young masters, not even Xiao Tianhu, could dare to offend her like this. Did this Qian Clan’s servant eat the guts of a leopard?
However, she was bewildered for a moment. She knew about the matter of Ling Xue using marriage to recruit Jiang Yi. She admitted that she wasn’t comparable to Ling Xue in terms of personality, which Jiang Yi paid no attention to. It meant that Jiang Yi was definitely not a lustful person. This man in front of her—his actions, his manner of speech, his expression, even his bones were permeating with lustful aura. How could he be Jiang Yi?
“How dare you!”
Her charming face turned cold as she reprimanded sternly, “Qian Daye, you are too presumptuous. Do you know… if this Princess screamed out and say that you are molesting me, you would be immediately killed by frenzied blades?”
“Princess, please forgive me!”
Jiang Yi shrugged his shoulder and spoke in a not mindful manner, “I have been an orphan since young and don’t know any etiquette. Since the Qian Clan took me in, I have been cultivating in seclusion. I might have followed Young Clan Head out this time, but I am ignorant about many things. If I am to offend Princess, please forgive me. Furthermore… Daye is truly praising you. Princess is really very pretty.”
Pshaw!
Ling Yue’s face blushed slightly. If she wanted to scream, she would have already done so. She merely felt humiliated earlier. Once Jiang Yi spoke like this and gave her some respect, she didn’t want to pursue it anymore. Moreover, she had an objective today. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be alone and walking to this place with Jiang Yi, where there was no one else except them.
The Azure Dragon Empire wasn’t lacking any experts. They had a giant divine vein which had plenty of celestial stones excavated from it. There were plenty of peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts, but the Ling Clan lacked Vajra Realm martial experts. The Ling Clan’s old ancestor’s lifespan was running short, and after being struck by the Demon Empress’ palm, his body was getting weaker. No one knew how much longer he would be around for.
Jiang Yi looked like he was only slightly more than thirty, but his strength was had already surpassed Xiao Ming who had comprehended a heaven-and-earth dao pattern. He had a great future and might even break through to the Vajra Realm. This was the reason why Ling Yue disregarded her status and condescended herself to personally recruit Jiang Yi.
Thus, she paused for a moment; and her beautiful eyes flickered. She had this trace of shame in her eyes as she looked at Jiang Yi with indifferent yet slightly emotional eyes and said, “Qian Daye, do you like this Princess?”
Here it is!
Jiang Yi sighed in his heart. He had this devilish look and nodded seriously while replying, “Princess is beautiful like the fairy, and any man would like you. Princess is the most beautiful lady that Daye has ever seen, and I naturally like you.”
“Ke-Ke!”
Ling Yue let out an indifferent smile and restored her graceful and noble personality, speaking with pride, “Qian Daye, you might be a servant; but no one cares about what origins a hero has. This Princess will give you this opportunity. As long as you… join our Azure Dragon Empire. This Princess will give you the opportunity to woo after me. If you dedicate your heart for the empire, this Princess will seriously consider marrying you.”
Marrying again…
Jiang Yi was speechless. He hated the word ‘marrying’. All these princesses and young ladies always thought themselves to be superior to others. Even when they want to use marriage to recruit others, they were still speaking in a lofty voice.
Su Ruoxue was a princess back in the days. She was the most beautiful and talented princess in the Su Clan, but she never made use of her status. Jiang Yi was nothing back then, but weren’t they still mutually in love?
Therefore, Jiang Yi had this nest of fire in his heart; and he didn’t wish to play along with this princess anymore. He swept an unbridled look at Ling Yue’s ample breast and suddenly replied, “Does Princess want me to serve the empire?”
Jiang Yi’s indecent look made Ling Yue feel disgusted, but she had to endure it and nod. “Daye, it is a waste of talent for someone of your ability. The empire can give you a larger platform, and you can obtain much more like… me!”
“Alright!”
Jiang Yi laughed and nodded seriously. However, he suddenly brought his face rudely close to Ling Yue’s ears and whispered, “As long as Princess would… do it once with me here. I will join the empire. How about it?”
