Illusion Venerable

"Yan Er, remember, although our Mystic Xia Clan is not strong and our influence has waned, we are still the royal family. No matter what we do, we should not be timid or lose our royal demeanor."

Xia Zhen looked directly at his daughter and said solemnly, "When you go to Azure Xuan Province, remember not to stand idly by. No matter what the situation, you must help that young Venerable One! After all, adding flowers to brocade is never as good as providing charcoal in the snow!"

Xia Yan understood, of course, that her father was right.

If you want to gain the favor of that young venerable one, offering your help is the simplest and most effective way.

"But... with the strength of those under my daughter's command, they are simply not strong enough to participate in battles between Martial Venerable experts."

Xia Yan was somewhat troubled. As the eldest princess of the royal family, and determined to revive the Mystic Xia Empire, she had recruited some martial arts disciples over the years.

Song Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that it was someone from the royal family.

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable."

Azurewood Venerable offered a compliment, then quickly changed the subject, saying, "However, while we wish to befriend that young Venerable, there are those who don't!"

"Who?!"

Song Ming was startled, and his already small eyes narrowed into slits.

Could it be that there are brainless members of the royal family who dare to attack that young martial arts master?

Then Song Ming would have to consider whether or not to put righteousness before family.

"Your Majesty need not be alarmed; it is the Azure Xuan Province Family Alliance."

Azurewood Venerable said calmly, "Most of these allied families are related to the Cangxuan Li Family by marriage or through their interests."

Song Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief; at least it wasn't someone from the royal family.

Immediately after a moment's thought, Song Ming understood the schemes of these powerful families.

Song Ming immediately breathed a sigh of relief; it wasn't royalty.
