Chapter 888 889: Too Deeply Scheming
Damn it, coming all the way from Earth, crossing so many realms, and I haven't had a bite to eat till now.
"... " Hearing this, Xiao Tianyu felt quite annoyed and snorted, "Were you reincarnated as a pig?"
"Boss, your words are really hurtful. Like they say, 'a man is iron, rice is steel', missing one meal makes you hungry, let alone we've missed dozens!" Xiao Jiu said with a bitter face. He wanted to add that while Xiao Tianyu might not be hungry, he was really starving.
"I'm done with you!" Xiao Tianyu rolled his eyes at Xiao Jiu, feeling frustrated at bringing along such a foodie.
"Let's go!" Di Xin smiled slightly, pulling Xiao Tianyu along while Xiao Jiu trotted behind them.
"You're from the Haotian Sect, right?" Di Xin's beautiful eyes sparkled. Xiao Tianyu replied nonchalantly, "Sort of."
As expected, from the Haotian Sect, hmph~ wait until you get back to your sect, and see how I'll deal with you, Di Xin thought to herself. As a princess, dealing with a Haotian Sect disciple would be as easy as eating and drinking.
Thinking of this, Di Xin spoke, "No wonder you're so powerful!"
"Just so-so," Xiao Tianyu said calmly.
Behind him, Xiao Jiu showed a look of disbelief, thinking, "Boss, are you sure you're just so-so? I've never seen someone so 'so-so' like you."
Turns out, the boss can bluff without blushing.
Di Xin continued, "But your clothes are quite unusual!"
"Really?"
"Yeah!" Di Xin smiled slightly, "They don't look like Immortal Realm clothing!"
Hearing this, Xiao Tianyu remained silent, seeing no need to explain. After the three of them passed through two streets, they saw a skyscraper-like tavern appearing before them, occupying thousands of square meters, spectacularly. Only the rich or noble could dine here.
"Royal Celestial Palace?" Xiao Tianyu glanced up slightly.
"Exactly!" Di Xin nodded, "The Royal Celestial Palace, exclusively for entertaining royalty and nobility. Ordinary people can hardly enter. Even an average disciple of the Haotian Sect would find it difficult to qualify for entry. This time, you're lucky to have me bring you in!"
With that, Di Xin showed an air of superiority as if she was born above others. Such an attitude made Xiao Tianyu feel particularly unhappy, but they were at the door already, and he couldn't just turn back, right?
Besides, Xiao Jiu wouldn't be willing to leave either.
Thus, the group stepped into Celestial Palace.
"The princess is here!" Upon Di Xin entering the Celestial Palace, many young figures immediately focused their attention on her with admiration. This princess was the Celestial Emperor's most beloved daughter, and winning her favor could lead to a meteoric rise in life.
Moreover, these young people were extraordinary, dressed conspicuously, each wearing brand-name clothes, clearly indicating their noble origins, and their eyes bore a faint arrogance.
Among them were even several royal princes, none over twenty-five years old.
"Hmm?"
At this moment, all those royal nobles' gazes fell upon Xiao Tianyu, each showing a sharp intent, especially seeing Xiao Tianyu holding hands with Di Xin, the chill in their bodies pervaded.
Clearly, most of them regarded Xiao Tianyu as someone to be underestimated.
Of course, Xiao Tianyu noticed all this, but his expression remained calm, unaffected, thinking these people were just creating trouble for no reason.
At this time, Xiao Jiu tugged on Xiao Tianyu's sleeve and spoke, "Boss, something's not right. This isn't just a meal; they're clearly attending a banquet. Look at their eyes!"
"Do I not have eyes?" Xiao Tianyu snorted coldly. He knew he had been tricked by Di Xin. Wasn't her scheming a bit too deep? Even if it was for revenge, there seemed no need for this, right?
Now, Xiao Tianyu understood Di Xin's intention. She wasn't inviting him to a meal but using these people to humiliate him.
"Princess, may I ask who this brother is?" Indeed, as soon as Xiao Tianyu and the others entered the hall, a luxuriously dressed young man approached with a polite smile.
"Qianshan Mu," Di Xin smiled, "If I say he's my boyfriend, would you believe me?"
What, the princess's boyfriend?
Wow~
In an instant, Xiao Tianyu became the focus of the hall. Everyone gazed at him with astonishment, some eyes even carrying traces of murder.
This oddly dressed young man is the princess's boyfriend? Besides being handsome, what else qualifies him for a princess?
But this doesn't seem right? Some days ago, it was rumored that the princess was very close with Lu Li, a core disciple of the Haotian Sect, and they even confirmed a romantic relationship. How could she suddenly fancy this oddly dressed person?
Moreover, no one in the Imperial Capital had seen this person before, suggesting his identity might be mediocre?
Then, Qianshan Mu smiled and said, "Naturally, I don't believe it because he doesn't deserve you!"
Qianshan Mu spoke bluntly, but not without reason. He was not only a core disciple of the Haotian Sect but also of royal blood, inherently extraordinary, naturally feeling superior.
Upon hearing this, Di Xin smiled slightly, "What if I say he is indeed my boyfriend?"
"Hmm?" With these words, Qianshan Mu frowned and said, "As far as I know, some time ago, you were very close with Lu Li. Now with this person, when Lu Li arrives, it might not be easy to settle. Moreover, this person is unheard of; what on earth does the princess see in him?"
"Boss, this person is really blind, looking down on us Earthlings; this is too disrespectful!" Xiao Jiu tugged on Xiao Tianyu's sleeve and earnestly spoke, though not loud, many people heard it.
"What, Earthlings?"
"Where is Earth?"
"..."
Many people glanced at each other, puzzled, as the term Earth was unfamiliar to them.
At this time, someone spoke, "It's rumored that Chi Zhongtian once visited Earth. As I understand, it seems to be a Mortal Particle World!"
"A Mortal Particle World?" Upon hearing this, all those royal nobles were flabbergasted. The princess's new boyfriend is a mortal? Can the princess even fancy this? Also, aren't you afraid the Celestial Emperor will be furious when he finds out?
Moreover, do mere mortal ants even have the qualifications to enter here?
"I think I don't belong here?" With that, Xiao Tianyu turned to leave, but Di Xin spoke up, "What, leaving just like that? Everyone now knows you're my boyfriend. Are you really going to stand me up?"
With that, Di Xin blocked Xiao Tianyu's way.
"Whether an Earthling or someone from the Immortal Realm, to be favored by the princess, you must be extraordinary, right?" At this moment, a crown-wearing young man stepped out from the crowd, his eyes brimming with unrestrained sharpness.
