A moment later, a group of figures walked out of the manor. The leader was Xiao Muyang. Situ Ji and Cheng Nan were also there. They heard that the guards of the Crown Prince of Yue were coming to visit, so they came out together to have a look.
"Brother Yao."
Xiao Muyang looked at Yao Ji and took the initiative to say hello. Although Yao Ji was just a guard, the people around Prince Yue, based on this relationship alone, were more noble than the descendants of many powerful forces in Donghua Mansion.
Moreover, when he was almost killed by the men sent by Shangguan Yun, it was Yao Ji who stepped in to save him. Naturally, he still remembered this kindness in his heart.
"Master Xiao." Yao Ji replied with a smile, looking at the people around Xiao Muyang, feeling filled with emotion.
When Xiao Muyang came to Qianyuan City, his strength was very weak, with only those from Haotian Palace around him, but now he cannot be underestimated. It seems that he has grown a lot during this time outside.
"Why did Brother Yao come here today?" Xiao Muyang asked straight to the point.
"The Crown Prince heard about Hall Master Xiao and asked me to come here specifically. I wonder if I have time to meet him." Yao Ji said with a smile, his tone was very gentle, without any airs.
The eyes of Situ Ji and others couldn't help but freeze for a moment. The Crown Prince of Yue wants to see Xiao Muyang?
Is it because of the Tower of Babel incident?
"How can Xiao refuse the invitation from the Master of the Prince's Palace? I don't know when is the best time to go?" Xiao Muyang asked.
"If Palace Master Xiao doesn't mind, you can go back with me now." Yao Ji replied, Xiao Muyang's eyes flashed, are you going now?
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Muyang nodded: "Okay, I'll go with Brother Yao."
After saying that, Xiao Muyang looked at Situ Ji and others and said, "I'll be back as soon as I go. You can just go about your own business."
"Got it." Situ Ji and others nodded. They were not worried about Xiao Muyang's safety. As the prince of Yue, they would not do anything to Xiao Muyang. Even if they really wanted to do it, they would not need to use this method.
So Xiao Muyang left the manor with Yao Ji and headed towards the Yuewang Tower.
Not long after, Xiao Muyang and the others arrived at the Yuewang Tower and entered directly into the Yuewang Tower without encountering any obstruction. After all, they were brought by Yao Ji, so naturally no one dared to stop them.
Then Yao Ji took Xiao Muyang outside a palace on the third floor and said, "The Crown Prince is inside. Master Xiao can just go in directly."
"Thank you, Brother Yao." Xiao Muyang said with cupped hands.
Then Xiao Muyang stepped into the palace and saw that the surroundings were filled with all kinds of gorgeous decorations, full of luxury. He couldn't help but stir up a wave of excitement in his heart. He was worthy of being a royal relative of the Daqi Dynasty, and his living environment was indeed not good.
Generally, it's like a royal palace.
Moreover, this is only the place where Qi Fan lives temporarily, and he will definitely leave here in the future. It is hard to imagine how spectacular the Yue Prince's Mansion will be.
Gradually entering the depths of the palace, Xiao Muyang suddenly looked forward and saw a young figure lying on the throne in the front, with a lazy expression and a slightly raised corner of his mouth, showing a somewhat cynical temperament.
This young figure is naturally Qi Fan.
"Xiao Muyang has met His Highness the Crown Prince." Xiao Muyang bowed his hands to Qi Fan and bowed politely. After all, Qi Fan's status is extremely noble. Even if the master of Donghua Palace is here, he must give him some face.
"Speaking of which, this is not the first time we have met. You were also present at the feast I held here." Qi Fan looked at Xiao Muyang and said with a smile, his tone was relaxed and casual, like a chat between friends.
"Your Majesty, you have a good memory." Xiao Muyang praised, but a hint of deep meaning flashed in the depths of his eyes. He had rejected Qi Fan's invitation before, but Qi Fan did not show any anger, as if he had forgotten the incident.
This Prince of Yue is by no means as simple as he seems on the surface.
"I heard that you defeated many people from the same realm in the Tower of Babel and directly won the title of God of War. There must be no one who can match you in Donghua Mansion." Qi Fan praised with a smile, with an undisguised look in his eyes.
The color of appreciation.
"Your Majesty, I'm so impressed. Donghua Mansion is vast and vast. Only a small number of people are gathered in Babel Tower. There are still many hidden masters who haven't appeared. There must be someone more outstanding than me." Xiao Muyang replied, his tone was very low-key.
humble.
As the saying goes, accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Although Qi Fan is not an emperor, he has a prominent background. It is better to keep a low profile in front of such a person, otherwise it will easily cause trouble for himself.
Xiao Muyang experienced some things when he was in Canglan Country.
"If those people in Babel Tower knew what you said and did just now, I wonder what they would think." Qi Fan smiled heartily, and Xiao Muyang had a strange look on his face. He also didn't know what Qi Fan meant by these words.
"I came to see you today to discuss a serious matter." Qi Fan suddenly said, his face becoming a bit more serious and no longer as casual as before.
"I wonder what the prince is referring to?" Xiao Muyang asked tentatively.
"Yao Ji had contacted you once before and hoped that you would join me in making great achievements in the Daqi Dynasty. However, you refused at that time. Now I am extending the invitation again. I wonder what you think." Qi Fan looked at him with sincerity.
Looking at Xiao Muyang, it seemed like an invitation from the heart.
Xiao Muyang looked stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Qi Fan to come to him this time because of what happened last time, but he hadn't given up yet.
"With the prince's background and prestige, as long as he says a word, countless geniuses will surely come to follow him, so why bother with Xiao." Xiao Muyang said with a bitter smile. This sentence was actually a polite rejection of Qi Fan.
"Who in the Donghua Mansion's throne can match your elegance?" Qi Fan asked: "If there is such a person, then the person I want will be him, not you."
Xiao Muyang couldn't help but trembled when he heard this, and looked at Qi Fan in surprise.
In Qi Fan's eyes, is his talent so strong?
Donghua Mansion is unparalleled in heaven, and this evaluation can be said to be very high.
"I came to you today just to express my thoughts. You don't have to rush to give me an answer. You can do it before the Donghua Banquet is over." Qi Fan said with a smile.
"I understand." Xiao Muyang nodded seriously.
"After the Donghua Banquet is over, I will return to the Daqi Dynasty. I will not come to Donghua Mansion often in the future. I hope you will seriously consider it, not only for yourself, but also for the Haotian Palace." Qi Fan looked at it with deep meaning.
He glanced at Xiao Muyang, as if there was something hidden behind his words.
Xiao Muyang's eyes suddenly focused there. It seemed that Qi Fan knew a lot about him and might have sent someone to investigate his background.
Thinking of this, a chill suddenly appeared on Xiao Muyang's back. If Qi Fan was rejected by him, would he take revenge on the people around him?
With Qi Fan's status, he shouldn't do such despicable things.
"There's nothing else to do, you can go back." Qi Fan waved his hand.
"Xiao said goodbye." Xiao Muyang said, then turned and left the palace.
Not long after Xiao Muyang left, Yao Ji walked into the hall, looked at Qi Fan on the throne and asked, "Does the Crown Prince think he is willing to surrender?"
"I don't want to." Qi Fan replied calmly.
Yao Ji's eyes suddenly froze there, and then asked: "Then what is the prince's next plan?"
Qi Fan showed a meaningful look and said, "Don't worry, give him some time to think about it, I believe he will change his mind later."
Hearing this, Yao Ji's expression couldn't help but change. He had been following Qi Fan for many years, and he knew Qi Fan's character very well. As long as he wanted something, he would get it at any cost, without exception.
Now that the prince values Xiao Muyang so much, if Xiao Muyang still refuses to surrender, I am afraid he will use some tricks secretly.
But as long as he carries out Qi Fan's orders, everything else has nothing to do with him!
