"This is because your father wants to keep me in the Kingdom of Heaven." Bai Ye smiled bitterly and put the edict aside.
"Then...are you willing?" The eldest princess lowered her head, her cheeks turning red.
Bai Ye is not an idiot, how can he not see what the eldest princess means?
Because of Bai Ye, even the second prince who is about to become the crown prince is now polite to the eldest princess. The eldest princess's status in the country has jumped from being unpopular to a hot position in the past few days.
She knew that without Bai Ye, she would get nothing, but she didn't care about fame and fortune at all, otherwise she wouldn't have been so unknown all these years.
"Your Highness Princess...you are outstanding."
Bai Ye looked at the eldest princess's charming little face and sighed leisurely: "But, I already have someone I like."
"Really?" The eldest princess's expression darkened, with a trace of bitterness on her lips: "I think so, Bai Ye, you are so good, you will definitely be admired by many girls, I have thought of this a long time ago."
"I'm sorry." Bai Ye showed a helpless look. It's the hardest to bear the kindness of a beauty. There are still many people waiting for him on the continents of Qingge and Zhiwu. Long Yue, Huan Shiying and the others don't know what's going on now.
After calculation, I haven't been back for a long time. When I return to Jiuhun, I have to go back and check the situation.
"Why are you apologizing?" The eldest princess smiled softly and said in a soft voice: "Even if we can't be husband and wife, we can at least be friends, right? Moreover, you are still my benefactor! Do we have to sever our relationship just because of this?"
Bai Ye heard the sound and nodded silently.
"Your Highness, there is an envoy outside asking to see you."
At this time, a servant ran in.
"Messenger, where did he come from?" Her Royal Highness the Princess said with a smile.
"Judgment Hall."
"Oh..." The princess looked at Bai Ye tenderly: "This should be Li Zhun's answer to you. Bai Ye, you go first, I will come back later."
"good."
Bai Ye's eyes flickered, he sighed secretly in his heart, and walked towards the front hall.
And just when Bai Ye left, Meixi, who was hiding in the back hall, came over with her head lowered.
Her expression was a bit complicated, and there was resentment between her eyebrows.
"You are right, he will not obey his father's arrangements." The eldest princess turned her back to her and her voice was a little hoarse.
"Sister...are you okay?"
Meixi was stunned for a moment, as if she had guessed something, and hurried over, only to see the eldest princess's cheeks were full of tears.
"Sister, are you...crying?" Meixi was stunned.
"Yes." The eldest princess said with a smile while shedding tears: "I am really a sentimental woman."
"Do you like Bai Ye very much?" Meixi hesitated and asked in a low voice.
"I can't say I like it, but when I was in the most difficult and dangerous time, there was such a person standing in front of me, protecting me from the wind and rain, and helping me tide over the difficulties. I believe that every woman will have feelings for him to some extent.
Maybe after some time, I will forget about him." The eldest princess wiped away the tears on her cheeks and said with a smile.
Although she was the eldest princess, she was still just a young girl, not much older than Meixi. She finally met someone she liked, but was rejected, which naturally made her feel uncomfortable.
Meixi knew that she was just pretending to be strong.
Meixi felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and didn't know how to comfort her. After thinking for a long time, she sighed: "Sister, didn't you say that those high-ranking emperors have many wives and concubines? Even if Bai Ye has someone he likes, you won't be afraid of having one more."
.”
"What do you mean?" the eldest princess said hoarsely.
Meixi hesitated for a while, then lowered her voice and said, "I think maybe Bai Ye's time with you was too short and I didn't realize how good you are. How about you try to have more contact with him?"
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, as if she thought of something, her dim eyes suddenly lit up.
"Sister, I have a question for you."
"Sister, it doesn't matter what you say."
"Do you... also like Bai Ye?"
....
lobby.
Bai Ye sat on a chair, read the edict from the envoy, and frowned for a while.
"Delegation? What is this?"
Bai Ye put down the edict and looked at the envoy with confusion.
"A delegation organized by Lord Li Zhun, the master of our palace, is a group that represents the people in our area to participate in the 'Shenwu Final Selection'."
The messenger said respectfully.
"Shenwu Final Selection? What is that?" Bai Ye was confused.
The messenger smiled slightly: "The Shenwu Final Selection is a talent selection competition organized by the Lord Judge. As long as you stand out in the Shenwu Final Selection, you can represent the Shenwu Continent in the 'Shenwu Battle'! Compete with the strongest from other continents.
Fight for the honor of our Shenwu Continent. If you can stand out in the 'Shenwu Battle', you will not only be ranked on the Emperor Killing List, but also be included in the 'God Killing List'. You will gain both fame and fortune and soar into the sky! Be famous in the mainland!
"
"Battle of Shenwu? A showdown with other mainlanders?"
Bai Ye muttered and frowned: "Which continent is it?"
"What other continent could there be? Of course it's the Nine Souls Continent." The envoy smiled.
Nine Soul Continent?
Even a mere envoy knows about the Nine Souls Continent, but many people in the Nine Souls Continent don't know that Shenwu Continent exists.
Bai Ye's heart felt inexplicably filled with sadness.
"I refuse."
He took a breath and said.
If you want him to be a representative to fight against the Nine Souls Continent, then he won't be that... Lu traitor? I don't know if this is the right word.
"If you want to refuse, you can naturally do so, but according to the regulations, you must serve in our Judgment Hall for three years as punishment," the messenger said.
"What?" Bai Ye's face suddenly darkened: "If I refuse, I will be punished?"
"The Lords of the Judgment Hall are the most fair and strict, and also the most discerning. They think that you are very powerful and can represent our Shenwu Continent in the war, so you must go. If you don't go, you will be violating the will of the mainland people.
, who is unwilling to contribute to our Shenwu Continent, according to the rules, must be punished, otherwise everyone is unwilling to contribute, how can our Shenwu Continent develop, grow, and prosper?"
The messenger narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"Can the Shenwu Judgment Hall represent the will of the people of Shenwu Continent?" Bai Yechen asked.
"Almost." The messenger said proudly.
"Then I won't go, and I will kill you here, and then fly away. What can your Judgment Palace do to me?"
Bai Ye calmed down, picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and spoke unhurriedly.
The messenger's face changed and he was covered in cold sweat.
Bai Ye had defeated the admonisher before, so he didn't think that Bai Ye wouldn't dare to do this.
"Um... sir... there may be something wrong with my previous statement. I hope you can forgive me. If you really don't want to go, I can explain the situation to Mr. Li Zhun, and he should be considerate." The attitude of the messenger.
He immediately became respectful again.
But in Bai Ye's eyes, this kind of respect is just false respect.
"No need, you go back and tell Li Zhun that I will participate." Bai Ye waved.
"real?"
The messenger was overjoyed and quickly took out the token and touched it with both hands.
"Then please Master Bai, take over the 'Shenwu Order'!"
"oh?"
Bai Ye walked down and took a look.
"Obtaining this order means that you are temporarily a member of our Judgment Palace. If any force dares to offend you, you can turn to our Shenwu Judgment Palace for help. Our palace will send a law enforcement team to help you. Before the Shenwu War is over, your Excellency
They are all people from my Judgment Hall." The messenger smiled.
Bai Ye stared at the token for a long time before asking: "When will we set off?"
"Five days later."
"Well, I will report at Li Zhun's Judgment Hall in five days."
"Welcome to you, sir!"
The messenger slowly retreated.
Bai Ye stared at the token, gradually lost in thought.
"The Battle of Shenwu...According to Emperor Yan's description, before the Shenwu Continent launches a war of aggression against the Nine Souls Continent, there will be a decisive battle of Shenwu. If they lose, they will cease all activities. If they win, they will attack the Nine Souls on a large scale while their morale is high.
The mainland has launched a war, so are the people from the Shenwu Continent ready to take action again?"
If you refuse, nothing can be done. Now if you break into the enemy, you may be able to influence him.
Bai Ye thought deeply and squeezed the token tightly.
