Chapter 607 - [Bonus ] A Man Named Gong Dong
--AN: Bonus Chapter 1/8--
This young man was the prince of the Dustwind kingdom, and not only once but twice did this girl in front of him make fun of him so openly. He gritted his teeth and tried to remember what his father had said to him before. He had no choice but to take such insolence and force a smile. "I see it is the young miss from the waterfall."
"Humph!" Kana ignored him and walked right by the young man without even answering him back. She did not like people who bother others when they were in the middle of something if it was not an emergency.
The young man clenched his fists, his face turning red with anger. The laughter of the old man next to him was not helping one bit. Liu Na quietly moved to Kana's side and whispered into her ear: "Kana, you shouldn't be rude to him. He is the prince of the Dustwind kingdom Gong Dong. He is said to be the one most favored by the king."
"What does his status have to do with his stinky breath and rudeness? If he did not bother me while I was cultivating, I could have cultivated longer and probably be a stage three body fortification cultivator by now. I don't like ugly, rude people." Kana's voice was not low at all as she talked with Liu Na, so both Lord Yong and Prince Dong heard what she said. One face turned black while the other was shaking while trying to hold in their laughter. That was until Lord Yong heard Kana say next. "With a name like his, are you sure they did not mix up the G and Y, and he is not Lord Yong's child? No, that is rude to Lord Yong. How could he have such a stupid son?"
"Pfft! Hahahaha!" Lord Yong couldn't hold back anymore and burst out laughing. "Little girl, you are right. My child would not be so dumb."
"Master!" Prince Dong yelled out in disbelief. He never thought even his own master would turn against him.
"What!? This old man was just telling you the truth. You are not be my son, and I thank the heavens for that. You can't even woo a single girl and instead, get told off left and right. How are you not stupid?" Lord Yong asked. If it was not for the king asking him to take care of his son he would not even be taking care of this brat.
"I..." Prince Dong couldn't answer. He had never run into a girl who would blatantly ignore him. Feeling frustrated, he walked up to Kana and asked: "Miss, are you saying I am not in the slightest bit handsome?"
Kana looked up at the young man standing in front of her and tilted her head to the side. "How are you even close to being handsome? Have you ever looked in the mirror? Handsome has two values…. One they have to have good looks that could make all girls swoon over him to the point that they will crawl over a wall every night even after being beaten repeatedly." Kana was referring to all the thots who tried to climb into her handsome husband's bed. "And second, they have to have a sense of warmth and love when they look at the women in front of them. Only then can a man be handsome. As for you…. You're just slightly below average. Not handsome at all."
After answering truthfully, Kana turned to Lord Yong and asked: "How do we enter?"
"You… Pfft… Ahem..." Lord Yong was trying to compose himself, but the deadpanned face that Prince Dong had on was enough to break that composer. "I will open the door now. But before I do, take these two tokens. They will be your lifeline. But like I said before, you will need to make sure you do not over do it. If you are instantly killed it will not work."
"Mmm… We will be very careful." Kana nodded her head. She would be extremely careful. She has too many people waiting on her to not be careful.
Seeing Kana nod, Lord Yong felt relieved as he turned and channeled his spirit power into the large gate. The gate began to vibrate before the runes carved into it began to glow with a blue light. Slowly each rune lit up until the doors themselves roared as they slowly opened. What filled Kana's eyes was a blue watery barrier. She grabbed Liu Na's hand and, with no hesitation, walked into the blue barrier disappearing from sight.
Lord Yong stopped channeling his spirit power, sweat forming on his brow as the stone doors closed. Prince Dong looked at his master and let out a sigh. "Master, why are you so good to that girl? She is obviously a little bitch!"
"Such crude words. Gong Dong, you better watch what you say. As it is now, Kana sees you as nothing more than a fly who is buzzing around her. If you wish to fulfill your father's orders, you will need to work harder on wooing her. As of now, everything she has said is true. You can't be considered handsome if you are not even looking at her with a warm gaze. All I see is a young man full of pride and ugliness. Not all girls will care about looks. They want to know where a man's heart lies. Riches and power will not sway this one. You must remember as well that she is not human but a divine beast. Her way of thinking is vastly different from our own." Lord Yong patted Prince Dong's shoulder as he continued. "Take this time and really think about what you want to do. If you truly wish to do this kingdom good, then you need to change your ways. You will only have a month to change. So do not take too long to make your decision.. But remember to always think about what the throne means to you."
