No one knows realize it was already midday, so people who were guided by so servants were heading towards the moon pavilion. It seems that they are participants who just registered today.
Suddenly a vibration was felt from her cosmic bag, it was Voltex.
Fu Xie Lan imdiately grabbed the thing from her cosmic bag. And indeed, the Voltex reacted.
Feeling it tugging at her sowhere, Fu Xie Lan got up from her position. She walked towards the bedroom door while putting the Voltex back into her cosmic bag.
Following where it took her, she opened the door and find that Wan Lie, Jua Xian, and Xue Ning were already there.
Stepping past and ignoring the three people.
"Xie Lan where are you going?" shouted Wan Lie after the girl, followed by the other two.
Fu Xie Lan continued walking, not caring about Wan Lie at all, nor even with people's gazes around her. Hao who seed to be perched on her shoulder was also on guard.
The girl's steps were neither slow nor fast. Trying to keep calm. Voltex reacts, which ans the ruby star stone is in the vicinity.
Walking alone near towards palace gates, her foot movents stopped, the queue of participants that should have been seen around the palace gates was now slightly sidelined.
The sound of a group of horse-drawn carriages could be heard from outside. Slowly passed the participants and entered the palace. Judging by the carriage and the people escorting it on each side, Fu Xie Lan could guess that it was the royal family entourage that was currently visiting the Zu royal palace.
Fu Xie Lan's eyes scanned the carriages one by one and the tributes that followed behind them.
As the horse-drawn carriage passed right in front of her, the Voltex trembled even more.
There, in the carriage, the ruby star stone is located.
Fu Xie Lan slowly moved away from there, looking for a suitable place to pay attention to who was inside the horse carriage.
Standing casually under a tree not far from the hall, Fu Xie Lan's eyes didn't leave it the slightest bit.
"It seems that Master Xie Lan is a little interested in the royal guest." A voice coming from behind broke the girl's focus. Turning to the source of the voice, Li Wei was walking towards her.
"Miss Li Wei."
"Master is alone?" asked Li Wei smiling with her eyes scanning the surroundings as if she was looking for sothing.
"As you can see," replied Fu Xie Lan.
"He is the prince of the Oceanna kingdom," said Li Wei who had matched Fu Xie Lan's position.
"Oceanna Kingdom?" Fu Xie Lan repeated.
"That's right. So princes from other kingdoms might also arrive soon."
"Are they also in this competition?" asked Fu Xie Lan.
"No, Master," Li Wei replied with a chuckle.
"They are royal guests of honor. This competition is a friendly competition between kingdoms, Master. And of course, they are invited to watch the competition which will start tomorrow," explained Li Wei at length.
Fu Xie Lan didn't respond and just nodded in understanding.
"Ah yes, where is Mr. Gu Yi? It's not usually Mr. Xie Lan alone," Li Wei asked in a rather small and gentle tone of voice.
"Oh, he has so affairs," Fu Xie Lan replied.
.
.
"Hmm, the prince of the Oceanna kingdom is indeed very handso," said Li Wei again, changing the conversation.
It could be seen from Fu Xie Lan's current position, a man stepped out of the carriage, a tall stature with a golden blue robe attached to his body, an oversized crown that adorned his head added a very charismatic impression.
"Prince Shen Zue, the future crown prince of the Oceanna Kingdom, as people call him," Li Wei explained.
"Is Miss Li Wei close to him?" Fu Xie Lan asked the woman.
"Ahem, I'm not that close to him. But that doesn't an we don't know each other," Li Wei smiled back.
"Oh yes, I almost forgot sothing. He is also the fiancé of Princess Fu Xie Yan," said the girl again.
"Fu Xie Yan?"
"That's true, Master. But that was after the eldest daughter was thrown into exile."
"Huh?"
"Before becoming princess Fu Xie Yan's fiancé, prince Shen Zue was the fiancée of the eldest princess of the Zu kingdom, Fu Xie Lan. According to the stories I heard, they were betrothed since childhood. However, due to an incident, Princess Fu Xie Yan took her sister's place," Li Wei explained at length as her eyes still wandered around.
Fu Xie Lan who heard this frowned. Why did Li Wei's words not exist in the original Fu Xie Lan's mory at all? She was once engaged to Prince Shen Zue? No matter how hard she scavenged the mories of the owner of the body, there wasn't a single mory left related to the engagent. Only her mory was of having a boyfriend when she was little, but even then she couldn't rember his na anymore.
"Is Miss Li Wei looking for soone?" asked Fu Xie Lan after noticing the woman.
"Um, no. I just feel a little hot," she chuckled as she moved her hand gracefully to cover the sunlight that escaped from the leaves of the tree where they were sheltering.
"Looks like soone's been watching for a long ti," a voice caught their attention. both Fu Xie Lan and Li Wei, neither of them realized that the person they were talking about was approaching and was already standing right in front of the two of them.
"Good afternoon, Miss Li Wei," said Prince Shen Zue.
"O-oh yes, good afternoon, Prince," Li Wei stuttered slightly.
A girl seed to be walking accompanied by several maids, approaching the three of them. It was Princess Fu Xie Yan.
"Ah, looks like I have to say goodbye, Miss Li Wei, Prince. Excuse ," said Fu Xie Lan withdrew.
"Wait!" said Prince Shen Zue from pulling Fu Xie Lan's arm and at that mont the girl stopped in place.
"Let go of the prince, I'm afraid your fiancé will be jealous," said Fu Xie Lan and imdiately one of Shen Zue's eyebrows rose.
"My candidate won't be jealous just because of a man," the prince chuckled.
Imdiately Fu Xie Lan cursed her stupidity. Just because of her emotional feelings when she saw Fu Xie Yan, she beca careless.
"Fu Xie Lan, we were looking for you everywhere, apparently you're here," a voice from behind rang out and managed to make the girl turn to the source of the voice. Right behind her, Wan Lie, Ju Xian, and Xue Ning were walking towards her.
"Sorry Miss Li Wei, Prince. Looks like I have to resign," said Fu Xie Lan repeating her words as she let go of Prince Shen Zue's grip on her arm.
"Alright," Li Wei replied with a gentle smile.
anwhile the man, Prince Shen Zue froze on the spot. His eyes followed where Fu Xie Lan was walking until she disappeared into the crowd of participants.
He didn't even feel that Fu Xie Yan was right beside him.
