Chapter 416: 416
Xue Wei was unperturbed about the many glances that were thrown his way; he was used to being looked at as an idiot and a weakling .
Lan, on the other hand, was used to being treated as a deity, and a smile could not help but flitter across his lips . This was new; to be looked down upon was actually such a novel feeling .
Xue Wei glanced at Lan, and his lips twitched slightly . He tried not to laugh and instead looked at the others . Just as Xue Wei was not caring about their expressions, his friends were utterly unmoved as well .
Their ability to control their emotions was already quite unusual, so maybe they could bring out a surprise? Many started to feel quite surprised .
"Courtyard Nine . Are you hiding like a turtle in a shell?" Xue Wei asked, his voice was no longer so loud that it reverberated through the entire area, but due to the silence, everyone could hear him, and they took in a deep breath in shock . This was a naked provocation!
The people, who had waited inside the courtyard in an attempt at making them flustered were now the ones who felt as if they had lost their face .
They all hurried out of the courtyard, their faces full of anger and sha .
They were red faced, their chests were heaving, and their eyes were bloodshot . It was clear that they were imnsely angry, and their eyes almost spat out flas .
"Who do you think you are?!" the one who spoke was a Vermilion Bird Clan mber . It was one who had not been in the Ascended’s Realm, and although he knew of Xue Wei, he had never actually seen him before .
When he looked at Xue Wei, he had a strange feeling, but he was not sure what it was . Instead, he was curious as to what idiot dared to cause problems for him and his band of brothers .
The ones he called brothers consisted of both Primordial Beasts and humans; they were arrogant because their backer was from the Vermilion Bird Clan .
"Idiot, you don’t know that this courtyard belongs to Young Master Chi of the Vermilion Bird Clan?"
Unfortunately, Xue Wei was not intimidated by the Vermilion Bird Clan, so when the young man tried to use his background to pressure him, Xue Wei just lifted an eyebrow and sighed .
"Do you think that I will back off, just because you have soone from the Chi Branch of the Vermilion Bird Clan?" Xue Wei asked with a smirk on his face as he crossed his arms over his chest .
"Who do you think you are, to look down on the Vermilion Bird Clan? This continent belongs to the Vermilion Bird Clan, so how can you possibly stand against them?"
The others were also shocked and looked at Xue Wei as if they had seen a freak . How could he possibly be alive if he stepped on the pride of the Vermilion Bird Clan?
But Xue Wei just snickered . "You seem to think that the Vermilion Bird Clan will pick a Chi-Branch mber over ?"
"Of course!" one of the henchn said with a nod of his head . "You are rely a poser . Blood is thicker than water; they will, of course, pick their family over a foreigner . "
"I am not so sure about that," another voice suddenly sounded out, and everyone turned to look at the one who interrupted them .
It was the First Prince . He used to be revered by all, but they had heard that his mother, the empress, had been banished to the Cold Palace, and hence his status had also dropped .
Even so, he was still revered for his own powers, and when he looked at Xue Wei, there was a mixture of feelings in his eyes . Before he had been imnsely jealous, and wanted to trample all over him because his father seed to prefer this man to him, he was burning with jealousy, but after realizing that this man was the Holy Son, he was no longer jealous .
It was natural for him to be unique . It was natural for his father to prefer him too .
Hearing that the prince said this, everyone was stunned . The First Prince gave Xue Wei a long glance before he took a deep breath . He understood that he ought to hate this man for what had happened to his mother, but he was also unable to hate him; in fact, he revered him .
He had heard tales about the Holy Maiden since he was a young, about her magical powers and her ability to bring happiness to all Sovereign Beasts . She was a legendary figure, and he knew that all Sovereign Beasts had waited for her for many millennia, so now that the Holy Maiden had turned into the Holy Son, he was still feeling respect .
The Chi Branch mber was stunned when he heard the First Prince’s words, and he looked at Xue Wei with narrowed eyes .
Did this guy have so background that they did not know of?
"Older Brother, who is he?" the Chi-Branch mber asked as he looked at the First Prince .
"He is Xue Wei," the First Prince answered right away, and the face of the Chi-Branch mber was suddenly turning pale as a sheet .
Before entering the army, his father had told him that he was not allowed to cause problems for this Xue Wei . He was not sure of what precisely his identity was, but he was aware of the fact that he could not afford to offend him .
But although he could not offend him, he was really not able to accept the fact that he had to give up the ninth courtyard and move into the tents .
