Chapter 767: Chapter 482: Arrogance

While it is rare for a mortal to serve as an envoy, it does occasionally happen, after all, the occupation of an envoy relies more on verbal skill than on martial ability. However, the fact that this golden-haired princess is a mortal seems somewhat odd.

Through thousands of years of bloodline evolution, it’s rare for a member of a great clan to be unable to cultivate and be considered useless.

This woman, as one of the members of the so-called Xi’en royal family, has a nearly negligible probability of being born with innate deficiencies like him, Xu Yuan.

Today has he met someone who shares his plight, or is it that he simply can’t sense the other party’s cultivation level?

As Xu Yuan pondered, Li Yunqing had already stepped forward with a smile, approaching the two individuals from Xi’en.

Standing firm like a pine, Li Yunqing, with a composed and elegant demeanor, complimented the golden-haired princess with a smile:

"I have long heard that Princess O’Reilly has a beauty that could enchant fish and geese, and today it seems that the tales are indeed true."

After a moment of silence, O’Reilly took a small step back, gracefully lifted her dress, and slightly bent her knees to perform a courtly curtsy of the Xi’en Kingdom, revealing a vast expanse of her snowy chest:

"Thank you, Your Highness. You, too, are very charming and suave. I heard that Your Highness is always indifferent to worldly affairs, yet now it seems you are a modest gentleman. You may simply call me O’Reilly."

The woman’s voice was like a silver bell, speaking the language of the Dayan, but she did so with great difficulty.

Hearing her strained and awkward Dayan, Li Yunqing’s eyebrows lifted slightly as he laughed and asked:

"According to what my royal brother said, Princess O’Reilly, you seem to be not very proficient in Dayan language."

O’Reilly straightened up, her golden eyelashes trembling with a smile:

"The Dayan is vast and rich, with a long and flowing history. Whether as an envoy or out of personal interest, I am very keen to learn."

After the brief courtesy, Li Yunqing extended his hand towards Xu Yuan and introduced:

"This gentleman is the son of the Left Deputy of the Great Yan Ministry of War and a close friend of my royal brother, Wang Shicai."

O’Reilly’s gaze shifted left, locking eyes for a moment with the man in brocade, and a hint of surprise flashed through her azure eyes, which she quickly suppressed.

She assumed Xu Yuan was a close confidant the Crown Prince of the Dayan Empire had sent to listen in.

From what little she had learned over these days, the struggle for the throne in the Dayan Empire was even more dangerous than within their own Xi’en royal house.

Even among blood brothers, there was discord.

As an envoy, O’Reilly was also aware of the meaning behind the prince’s introduction. She glanced back at her armoured guard and said softly:

"Xiulun, salute."

With the sound of metal friction, the armoured guard lifted his left hand to his chest and bowed.

"This is my Guard Knight, named Xiulun. But he is naturally dull and has made no progress in learning the language of the Dayan."

Naturally dull, hm?

Xu Yuan’s gaze lingered on the armored figure, and after a few breaths, he silently shook his head.

If his spiritual vision was accurate, and he could clearly sense the danger from this ’can of tin,’ then he might actually believe it.

As he thought this,

Xu Yuan suddenly noticed that the ’can of tin’ was also watching her.

From almost within the sealed metal helmet shot a very covert gaze, and almost instantly, a feeling of being scrutinized enveloped Xu Yuan.

This was very impolite.

But he supposed the other party didn’t think he, Xu Yuan, could sense it.

After all, this was a very secretive form of probing, which he might not have noticed at all if he wasn’t currently using his spiritual vision.

After the brief exchange,

Li Yunqing showed no intention of lingering in the great hall of Yacui Palace, and gestured towards the stairs:

"O’Reilly, this is not the place for discussions, please follow me."

O’Reilly smiled faintly, a look of cheerful agreement on her face:

"It will be my honor, Third Prince."

....

Li Yunqing appeared to be a regular here, confidently leading the way through Yacui Palace as if coming home, without any need for servants to guide him.

Xu Yuan walked ahead with him, while the two individuals from the Xi’en Kingdom followed half a zhang behind.

After ascending the second floor, they entered a long narrow corridor, with several elegant private rooms on both sides.

Yacui Palace operated under a system of guest privacy, lacking a grand hall and featuring only those well-decorated private rooms.

Seizing the opportunity, Xu Yuan transmitted a message to Li Yunqing to ask the question on his mind:

"Yunqing, is this O’Reilly a mortal?"

Without any change in his expression, Li Yunqing replied:

"I’m not entirely sure about that matter. However, according to my royal brother, this woman seems to have extraordinary abilities as well, and they are not weak. They must be different from the cultivation methods of our Great Yan."

At this point, Li Yunqing paused for a moment before continuing:

"That man in armor is quite strong. Previously, to test the strength of these foreigners, my father took the opportunity to challenge him under the guise of sparring. Guess what happened?"

Hearing this, Xu Yuan pondered briefly before laughing:

"You’ll have to tell me about the cultivation of the person your father sent to ’make friends’ first, right?"

"A Grandmaster eunuch from the Eastern Factory," replied Li Yunqing with a light snort.

Xu Yuan said softly, "Hmm... His aura is similar to that of a Great Grandmaster. Sending a Great Grandmaster to face him doesn’t seem unfair, but since you put it that way, your eunuch was utterly defeated?"

Li Yunqing spoke with a sigh in his voice:

"More than defeated. That eunuch couldn’t even break through the armored man’s defenses."

"......" Xu Yuan.

"When these people from Xi’en fight, they are enveloped in a layer of light film. Not even Dao Charm attacks from that eunuch could breach it."

"Could it be that your eunuch was too weak?" Xu Yuan spoke thoughtfully, "After all, this person is the guard knight to a member of the Xi’en royal family."
