Upon hearing what the servant said, Liu Ruyan was immediately taken aback:

"What?"

"Another imperial sister has come to visit?"

She muttered something in surprise, then looked at Chen Changqing meaningfully.

What's going on today?

The Eldest Imperial Princess Liu Shi, had barely left when the Second Imperial Princess Liu Xin, arrived?

Chen Changqing remained calm, appearing completely unconcerned.

"Could it be that this Second Imperial Princess, like the Eldest Imperial Princess before her, is also here to win me over?"

He thought to himself.

Considering the Azure Dragon Ranking compiled by the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, its prestige is indeed high.

Before he knew he was number one on the Azure Dragon Ranking, Eldest Imperial Princess looked down on him.

Upon learning their identities, their attitudes changed drastically.

Just as Chen Changqing was in a daze, Liu Ruyan, who was standing beside him, suddenly looked at him:

"Changqing Brother Changqing."

"What do you think the Second Princess wants to see you about?"

Chen Changqing remained calm and composed, and said indifferently:

What else can we do?

"Is she trying to win me over, just like your eldest sister?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan's expression immediately turned ugly.

You have to understand, this is her residence. It's one thing for her imperial sisters to come and visit, but they're also here to try and steal her man.

"So what do we do now?"

"Junior brother, do you... do you want to see the Second Imperial Sister?"

As she spoke, Liu Ruyan's beautiful eyes flickered, and she glanced at Chen Changqing.

She naturally didn't want Chen Changqing to meet with her imperial sisters.

But we still need to consult Chen Changqing's opinion.

"Senior sister, I've disappeared."

Just tell her I'm in seclusion.

Without waiting for Liu Ruyan Chen Changqing say anything more, Chen Changqing walked away.

I learned this from Liu Tian earlier.

The Eldest Imperial Princess, Liu Shi, was the most powerful among the Eldest Imperial Princess.

Previously, Liu Shi had offered him a condition: that he could undergo a baptism in the Ancestral Land of the Maple Leaf Dynasty.

In Chen Changqing's view, even if the other princesses wanted to win him over, the conditions they could offer would probably not exceed those of the Eldest Imperial Princess, Liu Shi.

Besides, he had already promised Liu Ruyan.

No matter how good the conditions offered by these princesses, he would not abandon Liu Ruyan; that was his bottom line.

Seeing Chen Changqing leave, Liu Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the Hundred Dynasties War has not yet begun, and everything is subject to change.

It would be terrible if someone were to steal Chen Changqing away from her.

After calming herself down, Liu Ruyan came to her senses and got up to go to the front hall.

At this moment, a beautiful figure stood in the hall.

The woman wore a light purple dress, with exquisite features and skin as smooth as jade.

Her phoenix eyes darted around, revealing shrewdness and calculation.

Her lips were curved in a smile, yet she exuded an aloofness that made her seem unapproachable.

It was none other than Liu Xin, the Second Imperial Princess of the Maple Leaf Dynasty.

"Second Imperial Sister!"

Upon seeing Liu Xin, Liu Ruyan smiled and called out, then stepped forward.

Liu Xin turned to look at Liu Ruyan and smiled, saying:

"Ninth Sister is here."

Liu Ruyan gave a soft "hmm" and gestured for Liu Xin to take a seat.

"What brings you here today, Second Princess?"

After taking her seat, Liu Ruyan asked.

Liu Xin smiled slightly and replied:

"Ninth Sister has made ample preparations for the Hundred Dynasties War, and has even brought back an Azure Dragon Ranking."

"My sister has come to pay a visit. Is Young Master Chen here?"

Liu Xin's voice was gentle, yet it concealed a sharp edge.

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan remained expressionless and said:

"Second Imperial Sister, what a coincidence!"

"Junior Brother Chen is currently in seclusion and is probably unable to receive guests."

Upon hearing Liu Ruyan's answer, Liu Xin's eyes flickered slightly. She glanced at Liu Ruyan with a half-smile and said:

"Yeah?"

"Oh well!"

"I was really looking forward to seeing the Azure Dragon Ranking, what a pity!"

As she spoke, Liu Xin slowly stood up and continued:

"Since I won't be able to see the Azure Dragon Ranking, I'll take my leave now!"

Liu Xin took a step towards the hall exit, but after only a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned her back to Liu Ruyan, and said meaningfully:

"Ninth Sister, the Hundred Dynasties War is imminent. You and your Azure Dragon Ranking must be careful."

After saying this, Liu Xin left gracefully without waiting for Liu Ruyan's reply.

Originally, she came here with the intention of winning over Chen Changqing.

After all, the Eldest Imperial Princess all coveted the right to inherit the Maple Leaf Dynasty's Empress.

Unexpectedly, Liu Ruyan seemed to have seen through her thoughts and used the excuse that Chen Changqing was in seclusion to prevent her from seeing him.

After Liu Xin left, Liu Ruyan frowned slightly and muttered to herself:

"My eldest and second eldest sisters are really good at scheming."

"With the Hundred Dynasties War approaching, they're still trying to poach people from me."

"Fortunately, Changqing Brother Changqing doesn't seem to be leaving me."

Thinking it over, Liu Ruyan took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it.

However, what she didn't expect was...

The arrival of the Eldest Imperial Princess Liu Shi and the Second Imperial Princess Liu Xin was just the beginning.

For the next half day, Liu Ruyan's residence practically became a popular spot for the princesses to visit!

The Third Princess Liu Qi, the Fourth Princess Liu Wei, the Fifth Princess Liu Lin...

Even the Eighth Imperial Princess Liu Qing, who was usually the least sociable, came to visit.

Of course, without exception, their purpose was all aimed at Chen Changqing!

Although Chen Changqing's cultivation level was only at the Purple Mansion Realm.

But he was the Azure Dragon Ranking.

Everyone knows that Chen Changqing's strength is definitely no less than that of the Nascent Soul Cultivator they recruited.

If we can win Chen Changqing over to our side, we're sure to get a good ranking in the Hundred Dynasties War.

Liu Ruyan suppressed her anger and repeatedly used the excuse that "her junior brother is in seclusion" to send away the many princesses.

"Eighth Imperial Sister."

"I'm so sorry."

"Changqing Brother Changqing is currently in seclusion, preparing for the upcoming Hundred Dynasties War, so it's inconvenient for him to receive guests!"

Liu Ruyan smiled and looked at the Eighth Imperial Princess Liu Qing.

That's really unfortunate.

"Ninth Sister, I'll head back now."

Afterwards, the Eighth Imperial Princess Liu Qing did not linger and bid farewell to Liu Ruyan before departing.

After seeing off the last princess, the smile on Liu Ruyan's face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold and stern expression.

"Snort!"

For a moment, Liu Ruyan finally couldn't hold back any longer. She raised her jade hand and slammed it hard on the table.

"These people really don't take me seriously!"

"Are they really this blatant about poaching people now?"

Liu Ruyan said angrily.

Unexpectedly, all the other princesses came to poach him; it was simply outrageous.

Just then, Chen Changqing came out of the inner room.

Seeing Liu Ruyan so angry, I couldn't help but say:

"Senior sister, looks like I'm quite popular!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan glared at Chen Changqing and pouted, saying:

"At a time like this, you can still laugh?"

Chen Changqing remained calm and joked:

"This shows that my senior sister has good taste, choosing someone as sought-after as me."
