Chapter 165 - Meeting The Crown Prince Again

Xia Xinyue opened her eyes slowly and when she realized that she was naked, she suddenly recalled the events that happened last night. Thinking about that, her face turned bright red as she hastily covered herself with a quilt to hide her embarrassment.

She then checked her body and she found out that Jiu Shen didn’t touch her most intimate part. She heaved a sigh of relief, but she also felt a hint of disappointment.

Touching the empty bed, Xia Xinyue could not help but let out a broken smile. In the end, she could only bury her sorrow while thinking about Jiu Shen’s hearty laughter last night.

On the ground floor of the Green Wood Pavilion was the public dining area. Jiu Shen sat alone in one corner while pulling the cork of the wine bottle that he ordered from the kitchen. He wanted to try if their wine was at least comparable to his Mystic Jade.

Pop.

After removing the cork, Jiu Shen filled his cup with wine, but when he saw the slightly cloudy yellowish liquid that streamed down to his cup, his interest faded a bit. He then held the cup near to his nose and took a light sniff.

What a sour smell!

Jiu Shen frowned and his curiosity died down after smelling the sour smell of the wine. He didn’t like it, but he still took a small sip from his cup.

Sip.

Jiu Shen’s lips twitched as he disappointedly placed his cup on the table. "It seems like there are only a few good wines in this world. What a pity." He muttered silently as he watched the diners with a curious look. Among them, he could see the familiar face of the crown prince Reinhardt, and he was talking with a few middle-aged people that looked to be mercenaries. Their strength wasn’t bad, but it was still not enough to enter his eyes. However, because of his curiosity, he decided to listen to their conversation through his spiritual sense.

"Your Highness, what do you think about that senior who faced that huge eye with great heroism and majesty?"

Hearing the question, Prince Reinhardt’s eyes flashed with a look of admiration as he recalled that scene. "That senior is so much stronger than most of the experts in our Silver Wing Empire. I think only the emperor father could be his match." Although he sounded a bit unconfident, he didn’t want to undermine the strength of his father the emperor. After all, he had also seen how his father had faced off against a dragon in Beltran City. He was even able to scare off the dragon with his might.

Everyone still believed that it was Emperor Elyk who made the dragon retreat since they didn’t see everything too clearly at that time.

At the mention of the emperor, admiration and worship flashed on the eyes of the mercenaries before it suddenly dimmed down. Although the emperor was a strong person, the man they had seen yesterday was just too awesome, and they believed that he should be stronger than the emperor, but they didn’t dare say it out loud as they might be punished for it especially with the presence of the crown prince.

"Your Highness, can you tell us why you called us here?"

Prince Reinhardt smiled at them and replied. "I wanted to go back to Beltran City, but I found a beautiful fairy here in Green Wood Pavilion, so I decided to stay for one more day here."

The mercenaries looked at each other with knowing smiles when they heard the crown prince’s words. They knew that this seemingly harmless man was a fickle person who loves beautiful women, so they were not surprised when they heard his words.

"Then what do you want us to do, Your Highness?"

Prince Reinhardt’s smile vanished and was replaced by a serious look as he recalled the man with long silver hair. Reinhardt felt a sense of defeat when he saw that man’s incomparably handsome face. Even someone as confident as Reinhardt felt his self-esteem taking a huge hit when he compared himself with that man.

With a forced smile, Prince Reinhardt said. "It’s not that hard. I only want you guys to prevent the man who is together with that fairy from intervening in my matters. Of course, there is no need to use violence, or I might be placed under house arrest by emperor father."

"Oh, so it’s like this. Don’t worry, Your Highness. We won’t allow that man to interfere when you make a move to claim the beauty’s heart. Hahaha!"

"That’s right! Leave this to us, Your Highness!"

The mercenaries laughed confidently as they cheered the crown prince with fawning smiles. They were also experts, but they didn’t have a strong background like the crown prince, so they wanted to latch themselves on his thighs to get more resources to boost their cultivation. They were ready to do anything just to get in his good books. After all, this man was the crown prince, and he was the most likely person to inherit the throne.

Jiu Shen who was listening from the sidelines was amused at their conversation. ’Ays, Elyk. Your third son is talented in the art of military and stratagem, but he is arrogant and conceited. Your second son is most likely dead since a demon is now occupying his body. As for this eldest son of yours, he might be talented in cultivation, but his fickle heart will be the downfall of him. What a pity! Although your three eldest sons are tigers like you, their characters are flawed.’

Suddenly, Jiu Shen saw a familiar figure at the corner of his vision. He raised his head and saw the proprietress of the Green Wood Pavilion, Liuli. She had a charming and seductive air as she walked towards the dining area, and she would smile at her guests from time to time.

Everyone that looked at her smiled mysteriously as they stared at her exposed skin. Their eyes were already twinkling with unknown light as they glanced unblinkingly at her voluptuous figure.

Liuli was already used to this kind of scene, so she didn’t take their actions to heart.

"Proprietress Liuli, what a coincidence to see you here!" Prince Reinhardt rose from his seat as he greeted Liuli with a charming smile. She was one of the women that he coveted the most, but her strength was unfathomable so he didn’t dare behave wantonly in her presence despite his identity as the crown prince.

Liuli stopped in her tracks and she covered her small mouth as she giggled coquettishly while looking at the crown prince. "Oh, so it’s Your Highness! What a surprise to see you here this early! I wonder what brought Your Highness’ esteemed presence here in my humble establishment." Liuli glanced at the crown prince with a curious smile even though she already knew that he was here for a beauty. In fact, the crown prince always came here for the same reason, to hunt beauties. However, she didn’t expose him since it was unwise to provoke the crown prince for a matter like this. Of course, if he was here to take liberties with her, then that would be a different story.

Prince Reinhardt merely chuckled when he heard her question. He also didn’t forget to take a quick look at Liuli’s deep cleavage. ’Ays! This fox is too tempting that I want to grab her and be done with it. What a pity that she has a bit of strength, but it won’t take long before I can get you for myself. By then, no matter how strong you are, you can’t escape my wolf claws... Hahaha!’ A strange glint flashed imperceptibly in his eyes as he smiled at Liuli like how a gentleman would.

As Liuli was talking with the crown prince, she saw a lone silhouette seated in a random corner. He was looking at her with an indifferent expression, but she didn’t mind this. She then smiled at the crown prince as she curtsied elegantly. "Your Highness, I still have some matters to do. Please excuse this little woman. Hehe."

Reinhardt nodded his head at her with a warm smile and sat back on his seat. Just then, he saw Liuli walking towards a certain direction with quick steps, but when he saw who the person she was headed to, the smile on the crown prince’s face turned ugly and malevolent, but he quickly concealed it. ’That bastard! It’s him! What’s his relationship with Proprietress Liuli? It looks like their relationship is not normal. This fucking shit actually dares to steal my woman in front of my eyes!’

The eyes of the crown prince almost spurted fire when he saw how Liuli acted in front of Jiu Shen. Even a retard would know that their relationship was not shallow especially after looking at Liuli’s respectful and genuine smile.

’This bastard! See how I trample you later!’ Reinhardt concealed his fury as he walked towards Jiu Shen with his signature charming smile.

Sensing his arrival, Jiu Shen ignored the noisy Liuli as he took a look at this amusing crown prince.

Liuli furrowed her eyebrows in displeasure after having her time with Jiu Shen suddenly interrupted by someone, but when she saw who it was, she repressed her annoyance. "Your Highness, do you need anything else from me?"

Prince Reinhardt shook his head with a smile and said. "I just want to make friends with this gentleman here. I hope Proprietress Liuli would introduce me to him."
