Chapter 20 The Second Princess of the DynastyThis jade pendant is indeed real! It belongs to the Emperor of Daliang and there is absolutely no way it can be fake. The Lord of Tianluo City is experienced and can tell the truth from the false at a glance. If the token is genuine, then the second princess certainly cannot be fake. The Lord of Tianluo City did not have time to read the letter, but knelt on the ground and saluted: “Princess, please forgive me! I was unable to confirm your identity just now and offended you. It was me…” Before the Lord of Tianluo City could finish his words, he felt a breeze coming and slowly blowing his body up. The girl's voice was still plain and sweet: "Uncle City Lord, there's no need to be polite. I'm just my father's daughter, and you're an important official in Daliang. You're much more important than me. You don't have to be polite when you see me in the future. I hate red tape, too." The Lord of Tianluo City suppressed his doubts and nodded: "I will follow your instructions. I will arrange a room for you right away. My place cannot compare to your residence in the palace. Please give me your letter of guarantee! If you have any needs, I will do my best to meet them." The second princess smiled when she heard this: "Sorry to bother you, uncle City Lord, but my requirements are very low. Just a bed and a pillow will do. Don't think that I live in a very comfortable place in the palace."
"I'm going to live in Tianluo City for a long time this time. This is my second home. Uncle City Lord, just treat me as your junior." The Lord of Tianluo City is a big talker. Although he often listens to storytelling and novels, which contain some stories about royal families caring for the people and making secret visits, he does not believe from the bottom of his heart that there are such people-friendly royal families. That is just the fantasy of ordinary people. But the second princess's behavior made him doubt himself. "This is too friendly, it doesn't look like a..." The Lord of Tianluo City was muttering in his heart, but the Second Princess seemed to understand people's thoughts and said: "Do you think I'm less like a princess? More like a girl from an ordinary family?" The Lord of Tianluo City was terrified. The second princess said quickly: "Don't be nervous. You will know why I am like this if you read the letter your father wrote to you." "Don't believe the rumors coming out of the palace, saying that I am my father's favorite child. But it is true that I will be accompanied by at least 5,000 black knights when I leave the palace." "It's just that these black knights are not here to protect me, but to monitor me." The Lord of Tianluo City was stunned. His mind was a little confused and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Surveillance, they are monitoring you, Princess. What are you doing?" The second princess smiled and said: "Of course, my father thinks I am too dangerous. He is afraid that I will do something that will harm Daliang State. He is even more afraid that I will break into the palace one day and take his life." …… "Auntie Zhen! I miss you so much!" As soon as Chi Ling saw Su Huanzhen, he was so happy that he became like a little madman. He jumped up and hugged Su Huanzhen, as if he was an octopus wrapped around Su Huanzhen's delicate body. Su Huanzhen's cheeks flushed, and he lifted Chi Ling off his body, saying: "Are you really that happy? It's like you just escaped." As soon as the word "escape" was uttered, Chi Ling's expression immediately became a little strange.
She argued: "I didn't run away. I returned to the Fire God Sect as Aunt Zhen said, and then my mother asked my father to come with me to Tianluo City to find Aunt Zhen. Well, that's it!" Hearing this explanation that was obviously trying to cover up something, Su Huanzhen frowned and looked at the man with a strange expression on his face: "Brother Chi, could it be that you brought Chi Ling out without telling Sister Li?" The man coughed and laughed: "How could that be? It's just as Chi Ling said. Oh, by the way, where is the storyteller you mentioned? I've read his Biography of the Great Love Immortal these days and I really want to meet him!" Although Su Huan-zhen still had some doubts, he still talked about Lu Li's matter first: "This Mr. Lu is extraordinary. Through my observations over the past few days, I have reason to believe that he is a powerful person who has entered the Saint Realm!" The man uttered an "oh" and lowered his head to think: "Anyone who has reached the Saint Realm is a great talent! It is normal for a person to have a different mentality than ordinary people, as he or she can reach this realm that ordinary people can only look up to." "There have indeed been several cases of people entering the Saint Realm to preach in the cultivation world. For example, Zhongni, a Saint Realm expert, once traveled around the northern countries with 3,000 disciples, disguising himself as a mortal scholar and preaching everywhere." "There is also the Buddhist master Jin Chan who once traveled a million miles as an ascetic monk, preaching the scriptures along the way." "They do these things mostly to see the world and fulfill their own purpose." "If we really come across this, it would be a great opportunity!" When the Fire God Sect leader said this, excitement appeared on his face. Su Huan-zhen nodded: "Brother Chi, you are a powerful person in the realm of enlightenment. You are much better than me in terms of cultivation experience. Every day at noon, Mr. Lu will start telling stories. If you go, Brother Chi, you will definitely find things that I can't find." The leader of the Fire God Sect shook his head like a rattle: "Not necessarily! Although the Saint Realm is only one realm away from the Enlightenment Realm, there is a world of difference between them! How can a strong person of this level be observed from appearances?" "Anyway, go and listen first." Chi Ling nodded repeatedly. She had become addicted to listening to Mr. Lu's storytelling. Especially when she learned that so many interesting things had happened while she was away, and she was not there, Chi Ling almost died of regret! "Yes, let's go and listen first! Dad, Mr. Lu's storytelling is really interesting, I promise you won't come in vain!" …… Teahouse, noon. Today is the day that this teahouse has had the most guests in its history. It is packed with people, and the entire street outside the teahouse is almost full of people. Zhan Gu leaned against the door, holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, and kept glancing up at the second floor. "It seems like a big shot is here today." Zhan Gu stared at a certain place on the second floor, where the Lord of Tianluo City and the Second Princess were sitting. They were talking and laughing, and seemed to be having a very good time. However, Zhan Gu discovered that the expression of the Tianluo City Lord was very strange, as if mixed with a hint of awe and fear. The second princess seemed to feel Zhan Gu's gaze. She suddenly lowered her head and looked downstairs, and met Zhan Gu's gaze. Zhan Gu was startled and immediately turned his head away. "Damn it, this little girl's black and white eyes are so weird. Just now I felt like all my secrets and thoughts were seen through." He didn't dare to make any more rash moves and just stood at the door and watched the scene. "If anything unusual happens today, I'm afraid that the expert in the Dao Realm will have to take action himself. I'm not sure I can fight that monster."
When Zhan Gu thought of the moment when he looked into the eyes of the girl just now, he got goose bumps all over his body, as if the person he was looking at just now was not a human. (End of this chapter)
