“Third Brother, who are the couple on the city wall?”ln the imperial relay station, Xiao Heshui from Dark Dragon Country said doubtfully,” He looks extraordinary. He must have a high status in Longyan Country.”

If it were an ordinary person, they would not be qualified to stand on the city wall and watch.

Xiao Hetian shook his head and said,” I’m not sure either!”

The five great countries gathered once every three years.

It had been twelve years since the last gathering in Longyan Country.

Twelve years ago, he had also followed his father to participate, and he had some impression of the princes and grand princes of the Imperial City, as well as the nobles and ministers.

However, after twelve years, so many things had changed.

Xiao Heshui raised his head slightly and blinked his eyes. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he said curiously,” This should be interesting.”

This time, most of the young princes and princesses of the five countries gathered together. Their intentions were very clear. They were aiming for marriage.

There were a couple on the city wall. The man was handsome, and the woman was pretty. Even if they were not descendants of the royal family, as long as their status was not low, they were likely to become the marriage partner candidate.

Xiao Hetian looked at his younger brother’s amused smile and said helplessly,” Ninth brother, your purpose here is to marry a princess.”

Xiao Heshui immediately frowned and said,” Third Imperial Brother, you clearly know that I dislike those flirtatious women the most. Those women are delicate and pretentious. They are very annoying, let alone asking me to marry a princess from another country. Wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?”

Xiao Hetian’s face sank as he shouted,” Shut up!’

Then, he reprimanded with a serious expression,” This is the relay station of Longyan Kingdom’s imperial city. There are eyes and ears everywhere. If you don’t want to be punished by father when you go back, you can’t say these words loudly.

“Also, you have to remember the purpose of coming to Longyan Country this time!”

Xiao Heshui immediately looked around in horror. Then, he exhaled and patted his chest.” Fortunately, no one heard me. 1 was really scared to death!”

Then, he smiled cheekily at his Third Imperial Brother and said,” Third

Imperial Brother, as long as you don’t say anything, Imperial Father will definitely not know, right?”

His eyes were wide open as he stared at Xiao Hetian seriously and persistently.

Xiao Hetian looked at Xiao Heshui’s expression and sighed softly.” Alright, as long as you don’t spout nonsense in the future, Third Imperial Brother promises that I won’t tell Imperial Father!”

Xiao Heshui immediately said happily,” Thank you, Third Brother!”

Looking at Xiao Heshui’s happy appearance, Xiao Hetian’s lips curled up, obviously with a smile, but then his face sank again.” This time, the Black Clouds Kingdom sent Xiao Jingrui and Xiao Jingyu. It seems that their ambitions are not small!”

When he said this, he looked at the frivolous Ninth Prince Xiao Heshui, and his expression changed drastically. His eyes were filled with rage as he said,” This group of treacherous beasts who betrayed the emperor!”

This time, Xiao Hetian did not warn Xiao Heshui.

His expression was also gloomy and angry. He said,” Look at them. Their motive is obvious. Ninth brother, we must not let them succeed! Otherwise, when they achieve their goal, their next target will definitely be our Dark

Dragon Country!’

The purpose he mentioned was to annex the territory of the Longyan Kingdom.

Once, there was no dark cloud country.

However, a hundred years ago, the fight for the throne in the Dark Dragon Kingdom caused another Prince to rebel. After that, the Dark Dragon Kingdom was split into two, and the Black Cloud Kingdom was established.

After that, the war between the Dark Cloud Kingdom and the Dark Cloud Kingdom exhausted their national strength. They were no longer able to fight against each other. Hence, they stopped and recuperated!

Perhaps the prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom was indeed capable.

Once the war with the Dark Dragon Kingdom stopped, they focused on developing their economy and quickly became a powerful country.

However, he still could not do anything to the Black Clouds Country.

After a hundred years of rest and decades of continuous development, it slowly became a wealthy country and a strong army. It became the leader of several big countries, and its ambition was also constantly increasing.

Even though they were determined to obtain the Dark Dragon Country, they could not do anything to the Dark Dragon Country.

Since that was the case, he would first annex the other territories. When the country’s military strength increased, Dark Dragon Country would eventually be in his pocket.

Therefore, Longyan Kingdom, which had a lower military strength than the

rest, became their target.

As for why they didn’t target Shuizhou Country….
