Chapter 1909 - 1905: I’ll Drink for Her (Third Update)
Chapter 1909: Chapter 1905: I’ll Drink for Her (Third Update)
The White Jade Tower stands a hundred stories high, naturally it’s impossible to climb it floor by floor.
In fact, guests usually use their divine skills to fly to the desired floor.
However, this time Teng Hongbo took everyone on a ride in the tower’s unique magical elevator.
This magical elevator is like an elevator, a tool used for taking people up the floors.
The difference is that elevators on Earth are powered by electricity, while the White Jade Tower’s elevator is driven by a cleverly designed formation.
Soon, the group arrived at the ninety-ninth floor.
As the magical light dissipated, what came into view was an extremely luxurious hall.
A group of arrogant men and women sat scattered in various corners of the hall, casting scrutinous gazes at the newcomers.
Yet, no matter who walks into this room, their first glance is inevitably drawn to Luo Rongjin sitting on the sofa not far away.
Though he was just sitting there simply, he exuded an innate nobility that overshadowed everyone else.
"Your Highness, the Holy Maiden Mu has arrived!" Teng Hongbo approached and whispered.
Luo Rongjin, who was sipping tea, raised his head at the words to look at Mu Wushuang.
Mu Wushuang was taken aback, blurting out, "Luo Rongjin?"
This statement caused an uproar in the hall.
Many looked at Mu Wushuang with anger, daring to address the prince by name.
But Luo Rongjin’s eyes lit up, he waved his hand to silence others, then stood up and smiled.
"Miss Mu, this should be our first meeting! I’m quite surprised you recognize me."
Mu Wushuang’s complexion was very pale.
If she had known it was Luo Rongjin who invited her, she would have never come no matter what.
Not for any reason, but simply because Luo Rongjin’s status was incredibly intimidating.
To know that the Emperor’s Palace is a top Sect on par with the Profound Ming Tomb and Thousand Crane Palace.
And Luo Rongjin, as the Crown Prince of the Emperor’s Palace, is a figure second only to one, above millions.
This kind of existence is far beyond what a humble Execution God Temple Holy Maiden like her can provoke.
"Don’t be nervous, I just happened to see you here, so I invited you up for a few drinks," Luo Rongjin said gently, then signaled to others.
Immediately, a Meiji brought various drinks forward.
"What would you like to drink?" Luo Rongjin asked with a smile.
No matter what, every gesture of Luo Rongjin was impeccable.
He exuded noble grace and perfect manners.
But Mu Wushuang shook her head and took a deep breath, "Your Highness Luo, I’m really sorry, I don’t drink at all."
Luo Rongjin slightly raised an eyebrow, "What? Miss Mu doesn’t drink? That’s such a pity, how about eating something instead?"
As his words fell, an extremely sumptuous feast was immediately served.
Each dish was worth a fortune.
"Come, sit down and take your time to eat!" Luo Rongjin said with a smile.
But no sooner had he spoken than a young man, previously beaten, rushed to the table with bright eyes, gulping down the food regardless.
This sudden scene infuriated many.
But Luo Rongjin just kept smiling at Mu Wushuang.
Reluctantly, Mu Wushuang also sat down.
From the beginning to the end, no one spared a glance for Xue An, treating him like pure air.
Xue An didn’t care about this either, he naturally sat by the table.
Though his younger brother had just eaten on the first floor, it was as if he hadn’t eaten for years as he devoured the food.
Just watching him eat made others feel hungry.
Thus, Xue An also began to eat with a smile.
But after only a moment, Luo Rongjin raised a cup of wine, smiled slightly at Mu Wushuang.
"This is specially brewed Monkey Wine, how about a drink?"
Upon hearing the words Monkey Wine, Mu Wushuang seemed triggered with some painful memory and immediately refused sternly.
"Hall Master Luo, I’m really unable to drink any alcohol, so I’m very sorry."
Luo Rongjin’s hand hung in mid-air, his smile unchanged, but his eyes gleamed coldly.
"So, you’re saying you don’t even want to drink my toast?"
Silence fell over the hall immediately.
Only the sound of the famished youth gorging was heard.
Many quietly stood up, staring at Mu Wushuang with icy eyes.
Mu Wushuang’s face turned a bit pale, her eyes showed a hint of panic.
For though Luo Rongjin only asked softly, she felt an overwhelming pressure facing her.
Has this person reached such a level of strength?
Despite this, she still struggled to say, "Hall Master Luo, I really cannot drink."
"Is it that you cannot drink... or you don’t want to drink with me?"
At this word, Luo Rongjin’s smile vanished instantly, his eyes glacial, "Or is it that I’m no match for Xiao Tiansha?"
With these words, Mu Wushuang’s face turned deathly pale, filled with boundless humiliation.
"Hall Master Luo, you..."
"No one has ever dared to refuse my toast, so today you must drink it! Understand?" Luo Rongjin said indifferently.
Mu Wushuang’s whole body trembled.
But just then, a hand reached past her, catching the cup Luo Rongjin offered, and said casually, "Since she can’t drink, how about I drink on her behalf?"
Mu Wushuang looked up to see Xue An standing behind her without her knowing, and when she looked over, Xue An lowered his head and smiled at her.
Instantly, a surge of immense security flooded her heart.
But at that moment, Luo Rongjin’s face instantly darkened, his eyelids twitching continuously.
Yet he said nothing.
Because at that moment, there was already a commotion from behind.
"You drink for her? Who do you think you are? Do you deserve to drink with His Highness?"
"Right, who do you think you are, what a joke!"
Xue An’s smile turned cold, his slender fingers slowly rotating the celadon wine cup, he said lightly, "My patience is quite limited, so I hope you all best shut up now!"
"Shut up? Haha..." The one who ridiculed the loudest sneered, just about to continue.
The wine cup in Xue An’s hand suddenly vanished, and when it reappeared, it was already in that man’s mouth.
Bang!
The man was blasted off the ground by a mighty force, smashing two tables, hitting the wall before finally coming to a stop.
Upon looking again, not only was his mouth bloodied, even his jaw was shattered.
This move seemed earth-shattering, the whole hall fell silent, immediately followed by an uproar.
"He actually dared to attack someone in front of His Highness, kill him!"
"That’s right, kill him!"
Amidst the roars, Xue An stood with a cool smile, unyielding, with no trace of fear.
The young man who had been feasting heartily wiped his mouth with his sleeve after swallowing a large bite, then approached Xue An’s side.
Luo Rongjin remained silent, merely watching Xue An coldly.
The atmosphere grew tremendously tense.
But just then, the sound of tinkling ornaments echoed from the staircase.
And then a gentle female voice laughed and said, "What’s going on, why is it so lively here?"
