The Prince of Great Chu
The young man was very handsome and stood at least 1.85 meters tall.
His looks and height alone make him stand out from the crowd.
Of course, what attracted everyone's attention the most was the man's clothes.
A five-clawed golden python robe!
The Chu Kingdom!
"Does anyone recognize him? Which prince is he?" a cultivator asked quietly from the crowd.
Everyone shook their heads. One person said, "There are thirteen princes in the current Chu Kingdom. Apart from the First Prince and the Fourth Prince who are always in the public eye, the remaining eleven are all relatively low-key. It's really impossible to guess which of the eleven princes it is."
"Judging from his age, he shouldn't be more than thirty years old. Among the princes, he should be relatively young, and his ranking should be quite low," a cultivator said.
"That's right. In the past hundred years, King Chu Heng's harem has given birth to fifteen princesses and four princes. The one in front of us must be one of them, ranked between ninth and thirteenth." Someone agreed.
"Even a prince has come to Dubian Town, it seems the Mysterious Bookstore has truly become a sensation throughout the Great Chu." Someone couldn't help but exclaim.
"Isn't that even better? That's where our advantage comes in," one of the cultivators said with a chuckle.
"What advantages?" someone asked.
"Selling numbers? I got my whole family lined up to buy numbers at the end of last year. At the current pace of the Bookstore, we should be able to get those numbers in another six months. The more famous the Mysterious Bookstore becomes, the more people will want to go in. Won't my exclusive number be able to sell for a higher price then? Haha!" The cultivator said, unable to help but laugh smugly.
"Oh dear, how come I didn't think of that?" The onlookers sighed.
"It's not too late now. Get your relatives and friends to buy a few and keep them. Waiting for them to appreciate in value is a good idea," the cultivator kindly advised.
"That makes sense!" Everyone nodded in agreement, and then the prince stopped discussing it and dispersed in all directions.
"Young Master, this is it." Laifu led the 'Prince' to the entrance of the Mysterious Bookstore, just about to step inside.
'Bang'
The powerful gust of wind sent the 'prince' flying.
"How dare you!" Laifu, seeing the 'prince' sent flying, put his hands on his hips, glared at Yun Qingyang, and said, "Do you even know who he is? How dare you defy your superior? Aren't you afraid of being executed along with your entire family?"
'Bang'
Then Laifu lay down next to the 'prince'.
The surrounding cultivators dispersed, watching this scene in silence.
"Ouch!" Laifu was so dizzy from being hit that he kept yelling.
A sharp slap landed across his face.
"Stop arguing!" the 'prince' snapped.
Laifu was stunned by the blow. After realizing what had happened, he shut his mouth, endured the pain, stood up, and looked at the 'prince' with concern, saying, "Young Master, are you alright?"
"It's nothing!" The 'prince' also looked unhappy, staring at Yun Qingyang in the Bookstore with a gloomy face.
Yun Qingyang glanced at the 'prince' and said, "No number, no entry."
Then he lay back down on the table and continued to doze off.
"Young Master, are you alright?" At this moment, the middle-aged man inside the room, known as "Second Master," finally reacted, ran out in alarm, and came to the "Prince's" side, bowing his head as he spoke.
The prince's face was grim. He rubbed his chin with one hand, stared at Yun Qingyang, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sneered, "This girl is quite feisty. Interesting."
"Young Master." The middle-aged man was startled and was about to speak when he was interrupted by the 'Prince'.
"What are the names of the girls working in the shop?"
The middle-aged man shook his head and said softly, "Young master, I don't know, but..."
"Don't know? You've been here for five days and you don't even know their names? Useless trash." The 'prince' interrupted the middle-aged man, scolding him sternly.
"Your subordinate deserves to die!" The middle-aged man quickly lowered his head.
"Fine, didn't you figure out that dungeon thing? Hurry up and take me in. I want to see just how amazing this Mysterious Bookstore that's been all the rage in the Great Chu is, that it can even let you enter the world inside the book." The 'prince' said with a sneer.
"Yes, but young master, this instance requires four people to enter," the middle-aged man said.
The prince glanced at the middle-aged man and waved his hand.
'Brush'
'Brush'
Two figures appeared instantly behind the 'prince'.
"Two of us, plus you and me, is that enough?" the 'prince' said calmly.
The middle-aged man quickly nodded and said, "That's enough, young master, please come with me."
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he took out the dungeon activation token in his hand, walked to the Bookstore entrance, and said to Yun Qingyang inside, "Sir, we need to activate the dungeon."
Yun Qingyang raised her head, glanced at the dungeon activation token in the middle-aged man's hand, and said coldly, "Only three people can be brought in."
"Yes, sir." The middle-aged man cupped his hands and turned to gesture for the 'prince' to enter.
The prince then straightened his five-clawed golden python robe and walked in, followed by two shadowy figures.
Laifu was quite sensible; he bent down and stopped at the door.
"Young master, come with me." The middle-aged man wanted to lead the 'prince' and his entourage to the spot where he had just left the Grave Robbers' Chronicles.
The prince waved his hand, indicating that there was no rush, and walked directly towards Yun Qingyang.
"Miss, may I ask your name?" the prince asked Yun Qingyang with a smile.
Although Yun Qingyang had just knocked him away, for some reason, the 'prince' had a strange feeling towards Yun Qingyang; the closer he got to Yun Qingyang and the clearer he saw her appearance, the more his heart fluttered.
Yun Qingyang looked up at the 'prince' and said indifferently, "Get lost."
The prince couldn't help but smile slightly. Yun Qingyang's rudeness didn't anger him; instead, it only fueled his anger.
"Young lady, my name is Chu Huaixiang, the thirteenth son of the current King Chu Heng." The 'prince' confidently revealed his name and background.
"Hiss, he really is a prince!" The cultivators inside and outside the Bookstore exclaimed in surprise when Chu Huaixiang Self-Destruct his identity.
The Chu Kingdom is one of the Azure Dragon Continent, and as a prince of the Chu Kingdom, Chu Huaixiang has plenty of capital to show off.
Chu Huaixiang also looked smug. His status destined him to be superior to others from birth. In the vast Chu Kingdom, there were very few things he wanted but could not obtain, almost none.
Unfortunately, he ran into Yun Qingyang.
"I don't know him," Yun Qingyang replied coldly.
Before Chu Huaixiang could reply, the temperature inside the Bookstore suddenly dropped.
Yun Qingyang stood up, looked at Chu Huaixiang expressionlessly, and said, "I'll give you ten seconds. Either go in, or get out."
The Bookstore fell silent instantly.
Only the sounds of cultivators attempting to pass levels could be heard from the projection.
Chu Huaixiang looked at Yun Qingyang, a smile appearing on her lips. She shrugged, spread her hands, and said, "Okay, I'll go in."
After saying that, Chu Huaixiang turned and walked towards a corner of the Bookstore, and the middle-aged man quickly led the way.
Finally, Chu Huaixiang could still be heard talking to herself:
"Interesting, I like it."
