Spiritual Pivot Sacred Land, imperial villa district.
Ninth Prince Tyr stood before the full-length mirror in his bedroom, carefully straightening his lavish formal attire.
"Your Highness, you look exceptionally handsome tonight."
A servant respectfully offered him a brooch set with a stellar gemstone.
A confident smile curled Tiel's lips as he pinned the brooch to his collar.
The young man in the mirror was tall and slender, with strikingly handsome features.
His well-tailored, deep blue formal suit accentuated his noble bearing.
"Ye Lan... the succubus bloodline..."
Tiel murmured under his breath, a flicker of burning desire crossing his eyes.
Ever since he had seen Ye Lan reveal her succubus form in the arena that day,
her alluring figure had kept surfacing in his mind.
But he had held back until now before deciding to invite Ye Lan to dinner.
"Your Highness, here is the Tear of Stars you requested."
Another servant approached, carefully holding an exquisite gift box.
Tiel opened the box. Inside lay a necklace of clear, flawless sapphire,
shimmering with a dreamlike radiance beneath the lights.
This was a priceless treasure he had specially selected.
Not only was it beautiful, but wearing it regularly could also improve cultivation speed. It was B3 Rank Equipment.
Its price alone was one billion Cosmic Coins, nearly wiping out the allowance he had saved over the years.
Clearly, he was sparing no expense for Ye Lan.
"Very good."
Tiel nodded in satisfaction and ordered, "Prepare the car. I'm going to the Noah Sacred Land's quarters."
As a member of the imperial clan, he naturally would not travel by flying there himself.
"Yes." The servant respectfully withdrew.
Tiel nodded at the response and was about to head out.
A tall, lean middle-aged man in combat attire followed at his side like a shadow.
