While exiting the lake garden, Li Shen saw his bodyguard on the ground cross-legged with slumped shoulders. His face was pale and his entire clothes were soaked with sweat.

As they approached him he looked up at Lu Yue with a frightened expression.

The two streams of hot and cold energy had completely suppressed him. If this was a battle, after that one sword attack from her Li Wen would have had to fight while the energies destroy him internally.

If he had been on alert he could have prevented them from entering his palm, but when they did it showed how terrifying Lu Yue’s strange yin and yang essences were.

Seeing his bodyguard’s expression, Li Shen smiled and said.

“What was your name again?”

“My name is Li Wen Second Prince.”

“Hm, Li Wen, you’re a distant relative of mine so you don’t have to be so formal. Anyway, don’t mention what you see here okay?”

While saying that, Li Shen walked by Li Wen and patted him on the shoulder.

Weakly getting up, Li Wen bowed to Li Shen and said.

“Yes, Young Master.”

Hearing that, Li Shen rolled his eyes but then again he figure Young Master was less formal than Second Prince.

After walking to the carriage to head back to the hall, Li Shen paused and looked down at Lu Yue’s dress before he said.

“I don’t think it’ll be good to return when your dress is like that. How about you take the carriage to the South Wing and change?”

“But what about you there is only one carriage?”

Li Yue asked in return, but despite her words of concern her tone was somewhat cold, and her face was completely expressionless, almost indifferent.

She had returned to her previous self.

“Don’t worry I need to speak with father, I’ll just walk.”

After saying that, Li Shen sensed something and he hurriedly said.

“Ah, but don’t worry, I’m not going to tell him anything we have discussed. This is between you and me so we can handle this decision ourselves without our family interfering.”

Despite her cold demeanor that gave away nothing as to what she was feeling, Li Shen could tell she her inner emotion was one of worry when he had brought up talking to his father.

Lu Yue nodded in understanding.

“Li Wen, bring Lu Yue to the South Wing. Don’t worry about protecting me I can take care of myself.”

Li Wen had on a hesitant expression at first, but after Li Shen’s latter words he nodded his head.

Li Shen opened the door and helped Lu Yue into the carriage before watching it rode off with Li Wen in the coach.

After watching it for a moment, Li Shen looked away to the night sky. The rain clouds had gotten worst obscuring everything in a dark gloom.

However, it couldn’t obscure the smugness he was feeling inside.

Taking in an exaggerated breath through his nose he then released it all at once.

“Smell that? That’s the smell of a real man!”

As if a switch had been flipped, Li Shen become completely shameless.

“I mean, come one Li Shen, why do have to be so handsome and charismatic? Lu Yue has definitely fallen for my charms, I saw her infatuated emotion myself with these eyes of mine.”

Nonchalantly clasping his hands behind his back, Li Shen then shook his head and said in a helpless tone.

“I’m just too irresistible, what a hard life it's going to be to say no to all those persistent women in the future. Haah, how troublesome.”

After revealing more than enough of his narcissistic side, Li Shen suddenly blushed and thought while rubbing his nose.

‘I wonder when we’ll have our first kiss. Since we held hands that’s the only logical thing to do next, right? Or is there a step I’m missing?’

Li Shen put on a genuine thoughtful expression, but he soon snapped out of his childish thoughts.

“Ah, what am I doing! I should be heading back to speak with father, I need to find a place to look at that pill furnace I've been ignoring.”

Li Shen took a step forward and his figure suddenly vanished, showcasing his quick speed.

However, his voice could still be heard lingering in the night, resembling the wails of boastful disembodied spirit.

“Who’s got a beautiful girlfriend you wish you had? Not you! Bahahaha!!”

….

…

..

While walking to the hall entrance, Li Shen couldn't help but glance up at all the flying Spirit Artifacts the Star Bound Continent used to get here.

His eyesight was good enough for him to see them in the night sky. He was mostly interested in the flight rune inscriptions used to make them though.

He had been ignoring his rune inscription skills for some time now, he must have gotten rusty.

‘Note to self, study runes some more in the future.’

After that passing thought, Li Shen entered the hall, however, he suddenly heard the barking of a familiar dog.

“Bastard where’s my sister?!!”

Lu Shin popped out of nowhere in front of him with a dark look on his face.

Li Shen immediately scowled at his appearance and dismissively said.

“Her dress was a bit ruin so she just went to our guest quarters to get change, okay? Now get out of-”

Before Li Shen could finish his sentence Lu Shin immediately blurted out with wide eyes.

“WHAT?!!”

“Huh?”

“You bastard!! What did you do to my sister that require her to change her clothes?!!”

Lu Shin immediately lunge toward Li Shen and began shaking him violently.

“Come on spit it out, what did you do to her?!!”

Li Shen quickly felt like his head was about to fall off from all the shaking.

“Ugh, you annoying loud idiot let go of me. I didn’t do anything to her we just hold hands.”

Hearing that, Lu Shin froze.

“You touched her? Are you crazy? How are you not dead yet?”

Frowning, Li Shen was about to answer but a commotion suddenly happen in the hall that made both youths turned simultaneously towards it.

Yang Su and the others were seen there, and standing in front of Yang Su was Tang Long with a furious expression.

“Those are your friends, right? That guy’s been trying to court your sister this whole time but he’s being cock-block by that weird red-haired one. Looks like he’s getting angry.”

Li Shen’s face instantly darkened upon hearing that and his hands involuntarily clenched.

“Ouch! Motherfucker!”

Lu Shin blurted out after feeling Li Shen’s grip tightening around his hands. He immediately released him and shook his hands to relief the throbbing pain.

Looking at the back of Li Shen as he walked away, Lu Shin thought.

‘What the hell is up with that bastard’s monstrous strength?’

“You piece of commoner trash, who are you to stand in front of me?”

Hearing that, Yang Su remained expressionless with Li Ling standing behind him. It was obvious she didn’t want to speak with Tang Long.

Tang Long's eyes spout fire and he felt like his heart was about to explode with rage.

‘This fucker is always in my way! It's because of him that I can't cultivate properly. Now he’s even preventing me from talking to the princess, just what the fuck makes him think he’s anything special? If he wasn’t sucking up to the Second Prince he wouldn’t be worth the dirt under my shoes!’

As Tang Long was seething with anger, Li Shen’s cold voice suddenly echoed out in his ears.

“And who do you think you are to be talking like that, you better scram.”

Slightly surprised, Tang Long turned around to Li Shen.

“Second Prince, I-”

Li Shen immediately held up his hand and cut him off.

“I don’t care, just leave, now.”

Tang Long felt like he had just been slapped in his face. He was more than pissed after being treated like this. However, he simply cupped his fist respectfully towards Li Shen before he turned and left.

A vicious glimmer simmering in his eyes went unnoticed.

However, Li Shen’s eye’s narrowed when he saw the heart devil increasing inside of him.

But he didn’t care, if he dare try anything he’ll just kill him.

Li Shen was about to turn away, but he suddenly pause.

‘Wait.’

Looking at Tang Long’s back his eyes flickered with killing intent.

‘If Ghuanyu wasn’t the one who sent the Sea Expansion Realm cultivators to kill Yang Su, then who was it? Don’t tell me it’s somehow related to this kid?’

Li Shen wasn’t sure about that, he didn’t know why Tang Long would have a grudge against Yang Su.

“Yang Su, do you know that person?”

Yang Su nodded and then said.

“Master, at the Disciple Selection Ceremony he was one of the people who was throwing insults at me.”

“Huh? That weak bastard did that to our elder brother? Do you want me to beat the crap out of him?”

Mu Fan said threateningly while standing off to the side with Tai who both had bloated stomachs.

Yang Su shook his head and said.

“That’s fine, I’m not interested in taking petty revenge.”

Fang Chen next to him suddenly said.

“You might think that way, but it doesn’t mean he won’t come looking for trouble. Just by looking at him moments ago, I can tell what kind of person he is, and it’s the worst kind of people with status. Too prideful, and when that pride is tarnished they become vengeful.”

“It seems brother Fang has experience with people like that?” said Jun.

“Back when Master and I were roaming the Continent we had a few encounters with those types of people. But it’s inevitable that people like them would exist in the cultivation world, almost like a prerequisite.”

Fei Yin nodded solemnly at that before they move on from that topic.

While Li Shen was in his thoughts thinking about what he should do about Tang Long, his father’s voice was suddenly heard in his mind.

‘Shen’er, how did it go with Lu Yue?’

‘How did it go? I’d say it went fine.’

A smile was playing on Li Shen's lips as he said that.

‘Really? If so, why do your robes have sword slashes? One of your sleeves is even missing.’

Li Shen looked down at his appearance while responding.

‘This isn’t bad compared to what could’ve happened.’

Before his father could ask more questions, Li Shen quickly said.

‘Father, I want to use an Elder’s cultivation chamber for something.’

‘Oh?’

Li Shen was winging it and was hoping his father wouldn’t ask what he needed it for. He would like to avoid lying if he could.

‘That’s fine.’

After hearing his father say that, Li Shen then saw a jade slip appear in front of him.

‘This is a jade slip to open an available Elder's cultivation chamber in the clan's cultivation grounds, you don’t have to return it I’ll just mark it as your own personal chamber to use.’

With dazzling eyes, Li Shen grabbed the jade slip from mid-air and said.

‘Thanks Dad, I’m off!’

‘Wait, Shen'er, aren’t you going to speak with your mother? She’s still worried about you.’

Li Shen’s footsteps paused and he scratched his cheek while saying.

‘Tell her I’m sorry for making her worry so much and I’ll speak to her after I return.’

‘You could tell her yourself, but okay son.’

With that, Li Shen felt his father’s Divine Will retreat.

He then turned to Yang Su and the others to announce his departure before he went to leave the bustling hall.

However, on his way out someone unexpected appeared in front of him from the crowd.

It was the Empress.

Li Shen frowned.

And he frowned even deeper when she started speaking.

It was something about the importance of the Mercenary Alliance VIP card and how since he can’t cultivate he should give it to her son. She went on and on saying even though he was a Fleshly body cultivator and Soul Cultivator he still won’t amount to anything compared to Fu Wei the future emperor.

You know, just family power struggle drama at its finest.

Well, she didn’t say it so bluntly but that’s what Li Shen got out of it.

Though as if on cue Fu Wei showed.

“Mother, little Shen is the one who got the card so it’s his.”

“What? You unfilial son, it doesn’t matter what-”

“Mother, I still haven't told you about my "plum blossom." Father gave me permission to tell you of it but we can't discuss it here.”

The Empress wore a confused expression as Fu Wei led her off.

Before walking away, Fu Wei gave Li Shen a warm smile which he returned before he left the hall.

‘Well, hopefully, that’s one less potential threat crossed off my list.’

Li Shen thought as he headed into the deeper regions of the North Wing.
