Her Highness the Princess requests your presence
Later, the two sisters grew up and learned of their tribe's intentions. Neither wanted to kill the other, and the younger sister, Butterfly, escaped using snake-people's secret techniques, only to be hunted down by them. She managed to escape temporarily. ♪🐠 Claw 🏆😾
But their good fortune didn't last long. Butterfly and some other snake people were captured by humans and sold as slaves. Fortunately, the leader was Hai Bodong.
Not only was it not sold, but it was also moved by the butterfly and thus protected it.
However, Hai Bodong was no match for Queen Medusa. To protect Hai Bodong from being killed by her sister, Die revealed herself and died at her sister's hands. But in fact, it was an accidental death, otherwise Queen Medusa would not have been able to kill Die. But things did not go as planned, and in the end, the two sisters still ended in tragedy.
As a result, Hai Bodong's hair turned white overnight, and from then on, he was old before he was old, but his hair turned white.
The butterfly became the final victim.
Born for freedom, yet ultimately dying for freedom—that is the life of a butterfly.
Nowadays, butterflies have been almost forgotten in the Snake-People Tribe.
Of course, Queen Medusa may not have forgotten, but what can she do? She might feel guilty, but the dead cannot be brought back to life, and besides, she doesn't have the ability to bring her back to life.
Butterflies are tragic figures, but also beautiful and kind.
Compared to each other, Queen Medusa and Butterfly have different personalities. The older sister is strong-willed, cold as ice, and extremely career-oriented, while the younger sister is gentle, kind, quiet, and yearns for freedom.
Her personality meant she was not suited for the position of queen.
Of course, if her older sister weren't there, and she was the only choice, the ending would definitely be different. 💋🏆 💥💲
But the truth is there are no "what ifs," only "yes" or "no."
Born from the same egg, these twin sisters were destined to take different paths and have different fates.
The butterfly was not wrong, nor was Queen Medusa. They lived simply to pursue their dreams and future.
The mistake lies in the fact that some things are beyond their control.
Buzz~
Qian Ye was contemplating the life of a butterfly when suddenly he heard a sound, and it sounded like someone was approaching. However, the footsteps were so faint that no one but someone like him would have heard them.
But he didn't open his eyes, nor was he afraid of who it was.
"Mr. Qian Ye, we've finally found you." Suddenly, an old man's voice reached Qian Ye's ears.
Upon hearing the voice, Qian Ye quickly calculated and already had a pretty good idea of who it was.
"Is something the matter?" Qian Ye replied, still lying on the ground with his eyes closed, as if the danger didn't exist. This is the true strength of a warrior, able to remain calm no matter how great the evil.
At that moment, a man dressed in a magnificent brocade robe stood before him.
More accurately, he was an elderly man.
However, this old man, whether in his clothing, expression, or aura, exuded an air of authority.
Hmm, definitely not an ordinary person. Someone who can remain so calm upon hearing an unfamiliar voice is no ordinary individual. They must either be incredibly bold or extremely confident in their abilities.
Thinking this, the old man smiled slightly, "Of course I have something to say. Why would I contact you if I didn't?"
"Well then, let's sit down and chat. As the saying goes, 'Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?'" As he spoke, he opened his eyes and saw the old man in brocade robes before him.
"Very well." The old man hesitated for a moment, clearly not expecting him to be even calmer than he had imagined, showing no fear whatsoever.
He smiled and walked over to sit down next to him.
Qian Ye didn't get up, but just glanced at him. "Let me introduce myself. My name is Qian Ye, Chi as in Thousand-Year, and Ye as in leaf. I suppose you already know who I am since you came to find me?"
"That's natural, Mr. Qian Ye. I just don't know your background, but I do know that you are the powerful figure who can command the wind and rain and is helping the snake people implement the Desert Oasis Plan, right?" the old man said.
"You know that already? Why are you asking? Are you bored out of your mind?" Qian Ye asked indifferently.
cough cough~
The old man's expression darkened upon hearing this. "I was just asking!"
"Alright, enough with the small talk. Since you're here, why don't you introduce yourself first? My patience is very limited. If you get impatient, I'll make you regret it. You won't leave alive, believe it or not?" Qian Ye said bluntly.
So arrogant!
They do have some confidence, but they're being a bit too aggressive, which could backfire.
The old man was displeased with him, but outwardly he smiled and said, "Very well, then listen carefully. My name is Jia Xingtian, and I am the guardian of the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire."
"I think you've heard of it, haven't you?"
"Sorry, this is the first time I've heard of that," Qian Ye denied.
you...
Jia Xingtian was furious, his lips twitching violently. This kid clearly didn't take him seriously. Even if he didn't know him, the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire certainly did. He was too arrogant and conceited, not even putting the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire in his eyes.
If it weren't for that girl Yao Ye dragging him here because she had something to discuss, and I couldn't just force her, I would have given her a good beating!
Of course, if all else fails, we can only try diplomacy first, and then resort to force.
"Mr. Qian Ye, even if you haven't heard of me, surely the royal family of the Jia Ma Empire knows me?"
"Of course I know, so what? What does it have to do with me? I'm not a member of your royal family. I'm in the Snake-People Tribe in the Tager Great Desert. That's not illegal, is it? And can't you just get to the point? Stop beating around the bush and beating around the bush with me. If you have so much free time, find me a cool spot and don't bother me, okay?"
Qian Ye remained blunt, purely trying to disgust him. "Don't think I don't know what you're up to," she said. "Get to the point. Otherwise, get lost. Don't make me say it again, or you'll regret it."
You brat, you're asking for it!
Jia Xingtian was so angry he almost exploded on the spot; he really wanted to go up and twist his neck off and kick it around like a ball.
But thinking about the purpose of this trip, he calmed down and checked his strength. This kid was not weak. He was already Nine-Star Dou Wang and had one foot in the Dou Huang ranks. He could be recruited into the royal family's camp to use him. However, he was too arrogant and looked down on everyone.
People like this are difficult to control. Bringing them into the palace would be a disaster. Even if they are useful, they cannot be given important responsibilities. However, the Jia Ma Empire is currently beset by internal and external troubles and is in dire need of capable people. Whether they are good or bad, being able to temporarily bring them into the camp to fight the enemy would be a great help.
What's more, he also has the ability to summon wind and rain.
"There's an opportunity, I wonder if you'd like to listen?" Jia Xingtian immediately extended an olive branch to him.
"What opportunity?" Qian Ye asked, still indifferently.
She knew perfectly well what was going on, but she couldn't say it to his face, partly to annoy him.
There's no such thing as a free lunch. If something seems too good to be true, it's either accidental or has some ulterior motive.
Jia Xingtian smiled, finally showing some interest in taking the bait. "I didn't come to find you out of boredom or because I had nothing better to do. I'm here on the orders of Her Highness the Princess, requesting that Mr. Qian Ye come to the capital. The Princess has something to discuss with you. What do you say?"
Princess Eldest?
That is Yao Ye, one of the future heirs to the throne of the Jia Ma Empire, and the chosen successor supported by Jia Xingtian.
