As soon as these words were spoken, an expression of displeasure flashed across the faces of Di Yun and Di Tian, clearly indicating that Saint Potian's visit was not intended for them. What he had just said was rely offhand remarks; the true reason was to et the Sect Saintess, Ye Qingcheng.
"What business do you have with Qingcheng?" The Sword Venerable walked out from the guest hall into the courtyard, swept his eyes over Saint Potian, and said, "You must be the Holy Capital Prince, Saint Potian, correct?"
"Indeed, I am!" Saint Potian nodded slightly. "I greet the esteed Sword Venerable!"
"I am unworthy of such a title!" The Sword Venerable waved his hand, while Saint Potian gave a gentle smile. "To tell the truth, I have co here for a matter that requires
to et your Sect Saintess Ye Qingcheng. I wonder if..."
"Qingcheng is in her room cultivating, and it's inconvenient to disturb her. You can tell
your business!" The Sword Venerable spoke.
"Well..."
"Is it inconvenient?" the Sword Venerable asked.
"No!" Saint Potian shook his head with a smile and continued, "Being able to et the esteed Sword Venerable is naturally an honor for . So, in that case, I will speak frankly!"
"No need for formalities!" The Sword Venerable waved his hand.
Saint Potian continued, "Actually, my visit here is solely for the purpose of an alliance through marriage. I wonder if the esteed Sword Venerable can make this decision?"
What? An alliance through marriage?
Upon hearing this, everyone from Haotian Sect was stunned for a mont. So, this was Saint Potian's true intention for coming here? He wants to marry our Haotian Sect's foremost goddess, Ye Qingcheng? Impossible, absolutely off the table!
Even the Sword Venerable was montarily taken aback, not expecting Saint Potian to say such a thing.
Thus, the Sword Venerable spoke up, "I'm sorry, I can't make a decision on this matter. In fact, it's beyond my capacity. I suggest the Prince return!"
Despite saying this, how could Saint Potian not understand the aning behind the Sword Venerable's words? This was a rejection.
However, Saint Potian seed unwilling to give up, and he continued, "It is rumored that each Peak Master from the Seven Peaks of Haotian can represent the will of Haotian. Esteed senior's words seem a bit modest. Truth be told, this marriage alliance cos from my father's decision!"
"Moreover, my father has already sent a letter to Celestial Capital, waiting for the Celestial Emperor's response!" Saint Potian said with a smile.
"Since you've sent a letter to our Celestial Emperor, why do you still co to ask ?" The Sword Venerable asked, his gaze showing so displeasure, while Saint Potian waved his hand. "Please do not misunderstand, esteed senior. Everyone knows that Saintess Ye Qingcheng is a disciple of Haotian Sect; naturally, a marriage alliance must be agreed upon by Haotian Sect!"
"What a lazy toad wanting to eat swan at!" At this mont, Di Tian snorted coldly, "There's no way our Sect Saintess would agree to your marriage alliance. I think you should leave!"
"I presu you must be the Eldest Prince of Celestial Capital, Di Tian. Truly, eting you is much better than hearing about you!" Saint Potian smiled slightly and continued, "It is said that in Haotian Sect, Brother Di Tian was defeated by a disciple of the Demon Sect. Is this true? Moreover, I heard those Demon Sect disciples were incompetent ones. Brother Di Tian, is that true?"
The tone was filled with mockery.
Upon hearing this, Di Tian's expression turned quite unsightly; this was the sha of his life, the ntion of which he dreaded the most.
So, Di Tian snorted coldly, "So what if I was defeated? Does that an Saint Potian has never been defeated?"
"To my sha, I have indeed never been defeated!" Saint Potian replied with a slight smile, his eyes showing confidence, while Di Tian responded coldly, "You've simply never encountered them, which is why you can utter such arrogant remarks!"
"It's quite a coincidence; the Demon Sect disciple who defeated you was once crushed with a re gesture from !" Saint Potian continued to smile, causing Di Tian's expression to turn tieqing (ashen), while Saint Potian continued, "Moreover, I have now ascended to Martial King status. I believe those Demon Sect individuals are even less of my adversary!"
"You..." Di Tian was almost driven to spit blood from anger.
Saint Potian's gaze shifted to the Sword Venerable, continuing, "The debate between juniors, I presu the esteed Sword Venerable won't mind?"
"Naturally!" The Sword Venerable nodded as Saint Potian spoke up, "The Immortal Realm has been fragnted for ten thousand years, but prolonged division must end in unity, as it is a natural law. If Holy Capital and Celestial Capital were to form a marriage alliance, in future the realm surely would..."
"If you want a marriage alliance, you can seek the Princess of Celestial Capital Immortal Kingdom!" At this mont, a cold voice ca from inside the side room, "What does this have to do with ?"
The speaker was none other than Ye Qingcheng.
Bang~
Soon the door opened, and Ye Qingcheng walked out leisurely from the side room, holding a long sword, her white robes fluttering, her cold aura spreading, her enchanting gaze devoid of any ripple. However, her appearance caused Saint Potian to pause.
Is there truly such a woman with unparalleled beauty in the world?
"My apologies for amusing the Saintess!" After being stunned for a while, Saint Potian smiled slightly, "What the Saintess said is naturally correct, but Saint Potian believes that under the heavens, only the Saintess is worthy to match . Moreover, speaking of status, I am the Prince of Holy Capital, and in a few days, I will be crowned Crown Prince, and will rule Holy Capital in the future. If you are willing, we two could jointly rule the realm of Holy Capital"
"Not interested!" Ye Qingcheng glanced at Saint Potian, her voice cold, "Please leave!"
After saying this, Ye Qingcheng turned and left, completely ignoring Saint Potian, causing a flicker of coldness in his expression. In terms of status, he was the future Emperor of Holy Capital; in terms of talent, he was Holy Capital's foremost figure; in terms of appearance, he was remarkably dignified.
Yet he was ruthlessly rejected?
"I presu I don't need to answer you now?" The Sword Venerable spoke calmly.
"Since that's the case, I take my leave!" Saint Potian clasped his fists and left with a smile, while the Sword Venerable said, "I won't see you off!"
After Saint Potian left, the Sword Venerable frowned; this person harbored great ambition and appeared to be anything but simple.
Just as the Sword Venerable thought, Saint Potian's ambition was to unify the Immortal Realm. In truth, when Saint Potian arrived, he had already visited the Demon Sect and the Great Ming Immortal Sect, for he knew very well that these two sects had unresolved hatred with Haotian Sect.
His visit to Haotian Sect was for two reasons: firstly, because Ye Qingcheng was a heaven-selected maiden, destined for extraordinariness; secondly, because Ye Qingcheng possessed both talent and beauty, if Ye Qingcheng agreed to marry, she would beco his wife and naturally help him in his quest to conquer the realm.
If the Immortal Realm were truly left with only Celestial Capital and Holy Capital dividing the realm, Saint Potian believed Ye Qingcheng would definitely side with him. Unfortunately, Ye Qingcheng disdained him completely, let alone considered marriage.
"What are you thinking, Master Uncle?" Di Yun seed to have realized sothing and asked.
"I'm pondering Saint Potian's ambition!" The Sword Venerable replied.
"Master Uncle ans that Saint Potian possibly hasn't just visited our Haotian Sect, but has already visited other sects?" Di Yun, quite astute, continued, "Now that the Demon Sect and the Great Ming Immortal Sect harbor unresolved hatred towards Haotian Sect, if they accept Saint Potian's invitation, then this matter would indeed be quite frightening!"
