Chapter 1556: Chapter 1553: Sun-Slaying Blade! Princess Silver Frost! (5 Chapters)

"All of you oppose, but the Linhai Dynasty’s Royal Family agrees!"

Just then, a woman’s voice came from outside.

Hearing the voice, many of the high-ranking members inside the Conference Hall were surprised and turned to look outside the Great Hall. Their faces showed uniform astonishment. Had a member of the Linhai Dynasty’s Royal Family arrived?

Upon hearing this voice, Yue Qing’s eyes immediately filled with joy.

Whereas Yue Zheng and Yue Hua had faces ashen with iron green, looking extremely unpleasant.

"Yue Hua, what’s going on? Didn’t the intelligence you gathered say that no one from the Linhai Dynasty had arrived yet?" Yue Zheng glared fiercely at Yue Hua behind him and said coldly.

Yue Hua said with a pained expression, "Father, I truly did not find any members of the Royal Family within Haizhen City."

Step step step—

From outside the Great Hall, a series of uniform footsteps could be heard approaching.

A troop of Soldiers clad in golden armor and silver robes, formidable and extraordinary, entered the Conference Hall.

Lu Ao narrowed his eyes and spoke softly, "Golden armor and silver robes, the armor crafted from Iridium Divine Iron, the robes woven with Starglow Gold Iron Thread, it seems there’s no mistake, these are the Imperial Forbidden Army of the Linhai Dynasty!"

Fang Jin said, "So a member of the Royal Family has arrived?"

The Soldiers parted to each side, and from between them, a young girl dressed in yellow came in. She was not very tall, but exquisitely beautiful, her fair skin and comeliness undeniable, and a mischievous smile on her lips, with a pure white long sword hanging at her waist.

That sword was especially beautiful; the scabbard was exquisitely decorated, and even through the scabbard, Lin Bai could feel the sharpness emanating from the sword.

Upon her appearance, an undeniable air of Royal nobility dispersed throughout the entire hall.

"Silver Frost!" Yue Qing stood up from his chair and called out with a smile.

Hearing Yue Qing call out this Imperial Clan girl’s name, Lu Ao’s pupils dilated in amazement, and he exclaimed in shock, "She is actually Silver Frost!"

Lin Bai asked with curiosity, "What? Is this girl famous within the Linhai Dynasty?"

Lu Ao exclaimed in awe, "Not just famous, she is the most talented among the Imperial Family Descendants of the Linhai Dynasty, greatly favored by the Emperor, who has even mentioned several times his desire to pass the throne of the Linhai Dynasty to her."

"But that is not even the most famous thing about her."

"Princess Silver Frost really became famous within the Linhai Dynasty for... essentially castrating all the male members of the Imperial Clan..."

When Lu Ao said this, the corner of his mouth revealed a strange smile.

Lin Bai was taken aback and asked, "What?"

Lu Ao chuckled softly, "She used that sword hanging at her waist, named the ’Yin-Yang Blade,’ extremely fierce, ranked eighteenth on the Top Martial Spirit Weapon Ranking."

"But ever since Princess Silver Frost castrated so many Princes, the sword has been renamed ’Sun-Slaying Blade,’ the implication is self-evident."

Lin Bai asked with curiosity, "Why did you castrate those Princes?"

Lu Ao shook his head and said, "This remains a great mystery within the Linhai Dynasty to this day, and no one knows why. Outsiders speculate that Princess Silver Frost has this peculiary, but in my view, there must be a reason behind it."

Lin Bai nodded thoughtfully.

Lin Bai did not dwell on these issues. Instead, he pondered that now that Princess Silver Frost had arrived, Yue Qing’s situation in this Conference Hall should probably improve.

The Imperial Forbidden Army of the Linhai Dynasty was neatly arrayed outside the Great Hall with more than five hundred men, their aura profound and majestic!

And Silver Frost, with a joyful expression, quickened her pace into the Great Hall, coming in front of Yue Qing, and said with a smile, "Yue Qing, I’ve missed you terribly since you went to the Eastern Branch."

Yue Qing also smiled happily and said, "Silver Frost, when I saw that none of the people from the Royal Family had come, I thought you weren’t coming."

Princess Silver Frost laughed and said, "How could we not come? Whether it was the Old President’s passing or your return from the Eastern Branch, I naturally had to come and see Haizhen City."

In the midst of conversation, Princess Silver Frost gave Yue Zheng a fierce glare, her gaze unfriendly.

Yue Zheng quickly performed a respectful salute with his fists, "I’ve seen Princess Silver Frost."

"Greetings to Princess Silver Frost!"

"Greetings to Princess Silver Frost!"

In the Great Hall, other high-ranking officials stood up one after the other, bowing respectfully to Princess Silver Frost.

"You may all dispense with the formalities," Princess Silver Frost scanned the hall, and with a cold snicker, spoke out.

Thereupon, Silver Frost sat on the chair stipulated for the Linhai Dynasty’s Royal Family, a sneer on her face. Although a woman, Princess Silver Frost was even more domineering than men.

After sitting down, her demeanor was that of someone who acted like they were the best in the world, where anyone who crossed her would meet their end.

"Were you not in the midst of negotiations? I, from the Linhai Dynasty’s Royal Family, am the last to arrive. Alright, now that basically all the high-ranking officials of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce are present, let’s start the voting by show of hands," she said.

Princess Silver Frost spoke indifferently, "I, Silver Frost, on behalf of the Linhai Dynasty’s Imperial Clan, agree to Yue Qing taking over as Chairman of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce."

"Now it’s your turn to vote," she said, commandingly to all the high-ranking officials present.

If Lin Bai hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, it would’ve been hard for him to believe that a woman could be so domineering.

At this moment, Lin Bai gave Princess Silver Frost a few more glances.

"I object!" After contemplating, Yue Zheng bit the bullet and was the first to object.

Princess Silver Frost swept her disdainful gaze over Yue Zheng, her eyes filled with contempt: "Yue Zheng opposes, what about the rest of you?"

All the senior attendees fell silent, their faces were extremely anxious, cold sweat sliding down layer by layer!

"How did Princess Silver Frost get here?"

"My god, the Female Demon Queen has actually come from the Imperial Palace."

"What do we do now? Oppose or agree?"

"Oppose? If you dare to oppose, Princess Silver Frost could sever your ’root of life’ on the spot. That Sun-Slaying Blade of hers has claimed who knows how many ’roots of life’ already."

"Then what do we do? We all promised Vice Chairman Yue Zheng we would support him."

"..."

"What to do, what to do..." A bunch of high-level officials whispered anxiously.

Seeing so many senior figures fall silent, too afraid to speak, even those who had previously sworn to support him were now keeping their mouths shut, Yue Zheng felt very panicked!

"We..." Finally, another senior figure mustered the courage to say something.

Princess Silver Frost glared over, raised her hand to interrupt: "Hold on!"

"Come here!"

Interrupting the speaker, Princess Silver Frost shouted loudly, and a member of the Imperial Forbidden Army quickly came in and knelt before her: "Please command, Your Highness."

Princess Silver Frost spoke coldly: "Keep an eye out for me here, and note down all those who vote against. After today, I’ll personally pay each one of them a visit!"

"As you command, Princess." The soldier respectfully responded, taking out a Recording Orb from his Storage Bag, his gaze sweeping over the entire hall.

Princess Silver Frost smiled and said: "The high-level official who spoke just now, what did you want to say? Continue, don’t be afraid, I, Silver Frost, always persuade others with morals! I definitely won’t act recklessly!"

Upon hearing this, the Warrior trembled with fright, managing a bitter smile: "Er, this old man... this old man... Well, this old man needs to relieve himself, may I be excused for a moment?"

Princess Silver Frost’s face showed disgust: "Scram!"

"Thank you, Princess." The Warrior, feeling like he had been granted amnesty, quickly exited the Great Hall, and only after a long while did he come back, still shaken.

Lin Bai, seated to the side, upon seeing this scene, immediately smiled and said to Lu Ao and Fang Jin: "This is interesting, isn’t it? Princess Silver Frost’s fearsome reputation is really so effective?"

Lu Ao said quietly: "Brother Dongfang, although Princess Silver Frost is domineering and can suppress everyone in a short time, the high-level officials of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce all hail from powerful families and even nobility within the Linhai Dynasty!"

"They seem to fear Princess Silver Frost, but if you look closely, many of them show dissatisfaction and displeasure on their faces!"

"They may not say it out loud, but it doesn’t mean they don’t resent her in their hearts!"

"If this continues, it might backfire, causing some high-level officials who originally didn’t want to side with Yue Zheng to start leaning towards him now."

Upon hearing Lu Ao’s words, Lin Bai looked around and indeed saw that many High Elders had faces as Iron Green, looking unpleasant.

In contrast, Yue Zheng, at this moment, sat comfortably in his chair with a cold smile, appearing unhurried because he knew the longer Princess Silver Frost oppressed these high-level officials, the more dissatisfied with Yue Qing and Silver Frost they would become, indirectly pushing them towards his camp!

"Lu Ao, you’re right, these high-level officials of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce are influential figures within the Linhai Dynasty. Being humiliated and suppressed like this by Princess Silver Frost, they must be dissatisfied, and even more so, they might shift their displeasure towards Yue Qing."

"This will gradually tip the scales in their hearts towards Yue Zheng’s side."

Lin Bai said quietly.

Lu Ao said: "Exactly, Brother Dongfang, you see Yue Zheng, although he was initially surprised by Princess Silver Frost’s appearance, he didn’t say another word after that, his face still showing a sly smile."

"Yue Zheng knows very well that these high-level individuals are all respected everywhere, and even though they fear the might of the Linhai Dynasty’s Royal Family, they are definitely extremely unhappy with Silver Frost’s actions!"

"Yue Zheng is aware of the close relationship between Silver Frost and Yue Qing, almost like sisters. As soon as Silver Frost leaves, the dissatisfaction of these high-level individuals will transfer to Yue Qing."

"At that point, Yue Qing might find it hard to maintain her position as the Chairman of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce."

Lin Bai expressed his agreement with Lu Ao’s analysis, and chuckled: "Lu Ao, I had no idea you could analyse situations so comprehensively."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ao pretentiously flicked the hair at his forehead and said with a smug look: "Of course, even though I sometimes speak without thinking, when I put my mind to it, there aren’t many on the Lingnan Continent with a sharper mind than mine!"

Fang Jin said indifferently: "So if you could usually restrain that frivolous and arrogant demeanor of yours, you would definitely accomplish great things in the future."

Lin Bai looked at both Fang Jin and Lu Ao, saying: "I’ve found that you two are truly a perfect match; Brother Lu Ao is frivolous and arrogant, while Brother Fang Jin is meticulous and stable. The two of you complement each other perfectly!"

Hearing this, Fang Jin and Lu Ao exchanged glances, their eyes simultaneously revealing a hint of an unusual expression.

Just then, the High Elder who had gone out to relieve himself returned, and Princess Silver Frost immediately asked: "Are you done with your business? Then tell me, do you agree? Or do you object?"

The High Elder who had just returned from relieving himself wore a bewildered look as he faced Princess Silver Frost, his expression uglier than crying, thinking: Why is it me again? Am I really that unlucky?

"I, I, I..." The Elder opened his mouth wide and for a long time, but didn’t manage to say anything substantial!
