The one who took action was Prince Beiming? Chen Lianlian’s complexion was so grim, it seemed water could wring out of it. What relations does he have with Yun Sheng? "You! Prince Beiming, how can you be with this lowly... female Mage," smacked across the face by Ye Beiming, Wuxiong felt a burst of pain in his mouth. He spat out saliva only to find it mixed with blood and a few broken teeth. As a Summoner without a Summoned Beast at hand, he was no match for the martial-born Prince Beiming. Only then did Wuxiong remember that he did have a master and hurriedly looked at the Crown Prince, seeking help. Crown Prince Ye Beilian was covertly assessing Yun Sheng, noticing she had no shallow relationship with Ye Beiming. He had previously been attracted to Yun Sheng’s unique aura, and Chen Lianlian mentioned Yun Sheng was once part of the Royal Magic Academy too. Such an ethereal beauty, how had he not noticed her before? "Second brother, Wuxiong is my staff, if you injure someone, you should at least give a reason," Ye Beilian was discontent internally, Ye Beiming publicly disciplining his staff was tantamount to disrespecting him. This was already the second time Ye Beiming had humiliated him in public. "I am her servant, if someone insults her, naturally I must act. It is only because I saw the Crown Prince’s face, that I gave him a slap as a lesson, otherwise, it wouldn’t be as simple as a slap," Ye Beiming wore a cool smile on his face. "Servant? Ridiculous, you are the Prince of Great Zhou, how could you be a servant for a commoner," Ye Beilian was shocked and dismayed. Chen Lianlian clenched her hands tightly, her brightly painted nails almost breaking into the flesh of her palms. Could it be that Ye Beiming has actually fallen for that little wretch? Impossible, absolutely impossible, back when she had to switch to the embrace of the Crown Prince for the sake of her family’s interests, he had been moody for quite some time. He must be claiming to be her servant because he knows about her antagonistic relationship with that wretched girl. "Big brother, who says a servant is lower than others? Have you forgotten? Our great-great-grandfather, Emperor Changning of Great Zhou, once served as someone’s servant," Ye Beiming still wore a gentle smile on his face. "Our great-great-grandfather did serve as a servant, but his master later became the Empress, the Female Mage Emperor Mar. And she is just an ordinary female Mage, how can the two be compared?" Ye Beilian contemptuously regarded Yun Sheng as a young lady who at best just had a pleasant appearance. The relationship between Empress Mar and Emperor Changning of Great Zhou has always been celebrated across the continent, having met in the Elite Camp of the continent. Meeting at sixteen years old, they remained friends until the end of their natural lives. During that time, Emperor Changning served as the martial servant of Empress Mar for ten years, accompanying her through the bloody and power struggles of the Magic Temple, all the way until she ascended to the position of the Mage Emperor. Their relationship was like that of lovers and yet like close friends, the true nature of which was unknown to anyone. Before Empress Mar died, she left a will to have her ashes buried together with Emperor Changning. No one expected Ye Beiming to compare his relationship with Yun Sheng to that of Emperor Changning and Empress Mar. "In my eyes, she is no ordinary person. She is not even eight years old yet and is already a Great Magic Director. Who can guarantee she won’t become the second Empress Mar," Seeing a Great Magic Director not even eight years old was a rarity in Great Zhou City. Chen Lianlian too was a Great Magic Director, but she was already eleven years old. As for the Crown Prince, he was thirteen this year and merely at the peak of Great Magic Director. "A Great Magic Director over seven years old might be rare in Great Zhou City, but in the Magic Temple, it’s nothing special. What qualifications does she have to be mentioned in the same breath as Empress Mar," Chen Lianlian, seeing Ye Beiming defending Yun Sheng, felt even more displeased and couldn’t help but open her mouth to rebuke. "What if she wasn’t even a Magic Apprentice before the age of six?" With that said, Chen Lianlian was left speechless. Before he was six, he wasn’t even a Magic Apprentice? Looking again at the Magic Wand in Yun Sheng’s hands, it was indeed embedded with two soul stones. This meant that, in just over a year’s time, she had broken through to the rank of Great Magic Director. Such Magic Talent was considered demon-level even in the Magic Temple. "Her surname is Yun? Could it be that she is... the daughter of that Sky Mage Yun Canglang from back then?" Wuxiong muttered to himself. In Great Zhou City, with such talent and coincidentally carrying the Yun surname, and considering her age, Yun Sheng’s identity seemed self-evident. Seeing the spotlight-like attention converging on her, Yun Sheng couldn’t help feeling overwhelmed, but being protected this way, upon further thought, wasn’t such a bad feeling. Hmm, perhaps having a servant wasn’t such a bad idea either. However, upon thinking of Ye Beiming’s identity, Yun Sheng immediately suppressed the thought. Because of discovering Yun Sheng’s identity, the Crown Prince and his entourage became more polite towards her. After their departure, apart from the Crown Prince’s own horses and carriages, the Hunting Corps allocated a separate carriage for Yun Sheng in consideration of her. This made Wuxiong very dissatisfied. She was just a Great Magic Director, what was there to be proud of. He had thought that upon arriving in Great Zhou, based on the principle that rarity confers value, he would undoubtedly become the focal point of this journey to Hou Qin, but who knew that halfway through, Yun Sheng would emerge. And that damnable Prince Beiming, merely a former Crown Prince who had been deposed, actually humiliated him in public. The more Wuxiong thought about it, the angrier he felt. It was at this moment that the carriage suddenly stopped, and Chen Lianlian, with a smile brimming with intent, lifted the curtain after holding up a basin of fruit. "Mr. Wu, you’ve had a hard journey. These are the fruits the Crown Prince has given to Lian Lian. They have been chilled with ice and are very delicious. If Mr. Wu doesn’t mind, why not eat some?" Chen Lianlian sent a flirtatious glance towards Wuxiong. She was naturally beautiful, and with the fruit in her hand, her hands appeared as pure and white as jade, which made Wuxiong itch with desire. If it weren’t for the fact that he knew Chen Lianlian was the betrothed Crown Princess Consort, he truly wished to pull her into his arms and cherish her for a while. "Crown Princess Consort, you flatter me, Wuxiong dares not take such an offer," Wuxiong hastily took the fruit from Chen Lianlian’s hand, his heart feeling as pleased as if he had drunk a big mouthful of honeywater. "I really feel for Mr. Wu, that little girl, she was already well-known for being domineering at the Royal Magic Academy. She even dared to order Prince Beiming to humiliate Mr. Wu in public," Chen Lianlian sighed deeply, her face showing genuine concern for Wuxiong. Upon hearing this, Wuxiong felt even more frustrated, as he did not want to lose face in front of Chen Lianlian. "Hmph, I only spared that little girl because of Prince Beiming’s face. If she truly angers me, with just one Summoning Demon Beast, I could kill her," Wuxiong boasted about his Summoning Technique. "Killing her might not be good, but giving her a small lesson is possible. We just need to scare her a bit," a trace of ferocity flitted across Chen Lianlian’s eyes. "The Crown Princess Consort is right, it’s just dealing with a wretched girl, there’s no need for me to act personally. If the Crown Princess Consort finds the female Mage displeasing, I can give you a certain drug," Wuxiong suggested while taking out a bottle of the said drug. This drug was specially designed to attract Demon Beasts; sprinkling a little on someone’s clothes or skin, once in the Demon Beast gathering area, would turn her into an irresistible feast for the beasts. Wuxiong deviously handed that bottle of drug to Chen Lianlian. Chen Lianlian immediately thanked Wuxiong, while secretly scheming in her heart on how to deal with Yun Sheng. Yun Sheng, don’t blame me for being cold and ruthless, blame yourself for provoking the wrong person, for courting the man I have my eyes on.
