Chapter 140: Chapter 2 The Beauty is Unhard
Ye Beiming had no reaction whatsoever.
Those two people, one had usurped Ye Beiming’s position as Crown Prince, the other was Ye Beiming’s fiancée that had been decided upon from within.
Back when Ye Beiming was still Crown Prince, Ye Beilian always fawned over him with an obsequious face.
Cheng Bai, who had been shrewd from a young age, once said that Ye Beilian had more whites in his eyes than pupils, a typical mark of a petty person.
Indeed, not long after Ye Beiming was deposed, that little white-eyed wolf, Ye Beilian, turned his back and beca unrecognizable, not only personally ordering the eunuch to beat Ye Beiming’s wet nurse to death but also bringing Chen Lianlian in front of Ye Beiming to mock and deride him.
Although Ye Beiming was young, growing up in the royal court and being blind from a young age, he understood much more than the average person.
His heart was in extre agony at the ti, but he did not erupt in anger; instead, he kept all the bitterness hidden deep in his heart.
Bu Jiuxiao and Cheng Bai also deliberately avoided ntioning those two in front of him, yet this ti, Bu Jiuxiao brought them up on purpose, wanting to see Ye Beiming’s reaction.
This ti, upon Ye Beiming’s return, Bu Jiuxiao and Cheng Bai felt he had changed.
That change, apart from reflecting in his eyes, also manifested in his apparent indifference to the Emperor of Great Zhou and Crown Prince Ye Beilian, as though he couldn’t care less about those people any longer.
Ye Beiming was also aware of the observational visit to the Royal Magic Academy, but he had long ago heard about the diocre strength of the Royal Magic Academy, and upon learning that Ye Beilian would be attending, found an excuse to avoid it.
Ye Beiming spoke with an ordinary and sparse tone, but Bu Jiuxiao and Cheng Bai felt a chill upon hearing it.
After regaining his sight, Ye Beiming’s gray eyes always shimred with a bewitching light, making it impossible to fathom what he was truly thinking.
Upon his return, Ye Beiming voluntarily requested to move out of the Imperial Palace.
Within Great Zhou City, without military achievents, one could not be enfeoffed as a Prince; this held true even for Princes.
Aside from Crown Prince Ye Beilian, who had a separate residence in Yujing City due to the Emperor’s favor, the other Princes had no dwelling within the city.
Ye Beiming, for now, was temporarily residing in a Martial Arts Hall.
After leaving the Imperial Palace, he requested his close friends to refrain from addressing him by his princely title in daily conversations.
On him, no trace of a royal scion’s deanor could be seen any longer.
Throughout this year and more, he traveled everywhere to slay Blood Cloud Beasts, raising his fa within Great Zhou, to the point that even Emperor Zhou viewed him in a new light.
Yet, he was still not assigned any official duties by the Dynasty, remaining a Prince without responsibilities.
However, in Bu Jiuxiao and Cheng Bai’s view, the simply dressed Ye Beiming before them was the true ruler of Great Zhou.
Although they did not understand why the Emperor would continuously suppress Ye Beiming, the most distinguished of his offspring, Bu Jiuxiao and Cheng Bai had already decided that, in this lifeti, they would follow only Ye Beiming.
"How are they doing? It’s been several years since I last saw them," Ye Beiming’s tone was casual, as if discussing whether he had had dinner tonight or not.
"They’re doing quite well, acting as the President and Vice President of the Combat Association at that trashy Royal Magic Academy," Cheng Bai was sharply critical, but then he thought, "Hey, don’t you care at all? That pair of adulterers, flaunting their nauseating affection in front of others, it makes
sick to my stomach."
"Then tell , what business do you have at that trashy academy? Don’t tell
it’s just to visit old friends," Ye Beiming said with a teasing tone.
Even as n, their hearts raced a few beats faster at the sight of Ye Beiming’s overwhelmingly charming smile.
"The Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts will be unearthed in a few years. The Vice Hall Director wants to find so outstanding mages to accompany him. Not sure if a demon beast kicked his head—thinking of finding suitable candidates at the Royal Magic Academy," Bu Jiuxiao and Cheng Bai had originally gone to the Royal Magic Academy just to spectate as a pasti.
After all, they were very clear about the level of education at the Royal Magic Academy; it was filled with nothing but spoilt rich kids.
The news of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts being unearthed was not exactly a top secret within Wuxuan Wuji Hall.
Wuxuan Wuji Hall’s old Hall Master was soone who didn’t handle affairs much and was almost never seen around the year.
The news of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts was brought back by a letter from the old Hall Master himself.
Vice Hall Director Zhan Li, responsible for the day-to-day affairs of the Martial Arts Hall, had already announced that as long as one had the capability, anyone could qualify for the Divine Artifact search team, but as everyone knew, within the entire Wuxuan Wuji Hall, there were certainly three people who would get the qualification.
That would be the Wuji Three Young Masters who earlier on ford the golden triangle of the Hall: Ye, Bu, and Cheng.
"Cheng Bai, watch your words. The Vice Hall Director must have his reasons for doing things. Also, the Royal Magic Academy is not as simple as you and Ye think it is. The three exchange students that were chosen are not to be underestimated," Bu Jiuxiao had originally held the sa thoughts as Cheng Bai.
But what happened that day at the Magic Academy had completely changed his perspective.
"Jiuxiao, when you say ’not to be underestimated,’ are you referring to the little fatso who only knows how to defend, the little girl who luckily concocted a high-quality magic potion, or that weirdo in a cloak with a bizarre attitude?" Cheng Bai smirked, revealing a bright white set of teeth.
"Oh, looks like you two got quite sothing out of this trip. Those three are the exchange students the Vice Hall Director ntioned would report to Wuxuan Wuji Hall after the year-end holiday, right?" Ye Beiming had long been accustod to his two close friends’ style of banter.
"That’s them. Still got to wait another two months, I’ve almost forgotten about the year-end holidays. Speaking of which, what plans do you guys have for this holiday?" Cheng Bai just rembered that the holiday season was upon them, and Great Zhou ought to be celebrating the New Year as well.
Both the Martial Arts Halls and Magic Academies of Great Zhou had a holiday at the end of each year.
The holiday lasted two months, during which most martial artists and mages returned ho to reunite with their families.
Of course, there were also so diligent trainees who would arrange special training during these two months to improve their cultivation.
"I’m planning to go to the south. A Blood Cloud Beast was found there, and Father has sent
to hunt it down," Ye Beiming said indifferently.
"We’ll go with you!" Cheng Bai and Bu Jiuxiao said in unison.
The holiday implied it was the New Year.
On the occasion of the New Year, Emperor of Great Zhou actually sent him to kill the Blood Cloud Beast, truly a cold and unfeeling father.
Ye Beiming didn’t care much about it; his mother had passed away, and to him, the year-end holiday was nothing more than a aningless formality.
Staying in Yujing City and facing the cold treatnt was worse than traveling to the south for new experiences.
"Let’s get one thing straight. This is not for fun. That should be a high-level demon beast," Ye Beiming narrowed his eyes.
The ntion of the Cloud Blood Beast caused Cheng Bai and Bu Jiuxiao’s expressions to shift slightly, but soon both of their eyes lit up with excitent.
The tranquil life in Yujing had made them restless. Before heading out on the quest for the Divine Artifact, they indeed needed to venture out and gain more experiences.
