Throughout the morning, after a long silence, the two of them had already made a preliminary self-introduction on the road. Of course, this was Zhu Zhuqing's unilateral opinion. After all, for Wu Ling, he knew Zhu Zhuqing very well.
However, this introduction is still somewhat helpful for the current situation. For example, Wu Ling knows that she is only eight years old now, and Soul Power Level has reached level 16. For someone who is not Innate Full Soul Power, this level is already considered good.
And when Zhu Zhuqing knew that Wu Ling was already Soul King, he kept thinking about this and that, and then couldn't help but compare Wu Ling and Dai Mubai.
"Dai Mubai is eleven and twenty-two years old this year. In four years... it is unknown whether he will reach Soul Ancestor, let alone Soul King. So is this a real genius?"
Wu Ling also understood Zhu Zhuqing's reaction, so he continued to wander aimlessly with her. When Zhu Zhuqing reacted and planned to talk to Wu Ling and build a relationship, she suddenly realized that the two of them had arrived at the door of the Zhu Family.
Zhu Zhuqing's face darkened. She was about to say something, but the elder who was putting out the fire suddenly walked out of the door. After seeing Wu Ling, he came towards Wu Ling.
"Welcome His Highness the Holy Son. The patriarch and the emperor have been waiting for a long time. Please enter the banquet hall and take a seat.
Zhuqing If you don't want to enter, just follow me from here."
"Star Luo Emperor? This is to take advantage of the situation. It seems that the Zhu Family patriarch is a little self-aware." Wu Ling instantly penetrated the little thoughts of the Zhu Family patriarch, but he didn't care about it. On the contrary, it was more to his liking to let the emperor be the trading partner.
Then, under Zhu Zhuqing's slightly eager eyes, Wu Ling walked into the house without even looking.
Wu Ling's behavior of directly ignoring her made Zhu Zhuqing's expression turn to one of disappointment.
"Zhuqing, come with me. We have prepared meals for you. By the way, tell me about what happened to you and His Highness the Holy Son this morning."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the elder in front of her, who had not given her a good look in several years, suddenly talking to her with a smile on his face, and she understood that the reason for all this was that man.
She looked in the direction Wu Ling left and pursed her lips slightly, but in the end she could only listen to the elder's words and left with him.
After entering the banquet hall, Wu Ling immediately saw Star Luo Emperor sitting in the main seat. The anxiety and worry about his son running away from home could not be seen on his majestic face. There was an old woman sitting next to him. Wu Ling knew without even thinking that that was the patriarch of the Zhu Family.
"Ah hahaha, I originally came here to talk to Ju Qing about the engagement, but I didn't expect to meet His Highness the Holy Son here again. What a fate!"
Facing the enthusiastic Star Luo Emperor, Wu Ling exchanged a few words of greetings, and then got to know the current Zhu Family patriarch, Zhu Juqing. As the dishes were served, the banquet for three people also reached the eating stage.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, a person who has eaten and drank is the most comfortable time, so this is also the most suitable time to negotiate a deal.
"His Highness the Holy Son, I think you seem to be interested in a younger member of my family, right?" Zhu Juqing looked at the cheerful Wu Ling and finally brought up the topic.
"Is that one called Zhu Zhuqing? It's pretty good."
After hearing Wu Ling's answer, Zhu Juqing and the emperor looked at each other silently, both of them having already confirmed Wu Ling's idea in their hearts. After all, they even knew the name, so it wasn't a good question.
"Your Highness, what you don't know is that the child is actually the fiancée of the third prince. They are just married by fingertips. The two of them have never even met.
And this time the emperor came to our clan for this matter. After all, if the fiancé runs away, then as the fiancée, she will definitely be implicated."
After Zhu Juqing finished speaking, the emperor spoke again, "Oh, Holy Son doesn't know something, and actually I don't want to, but after all, this is a rule set by our ancestors, so I am in a dilemma."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Zhu Juqing said with a cry, "Oh, my poor baby, she has to suffer this injustice when she is not even ten years old. She is the one who pissed and pooped every time I pooped. It would be great if there is a kind person who can help her."
"Good Samaritan" Wu Ling looked at the crying Zhu Juqing who even gave up his old face in order to raise the price, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
He was sure that the two people in front of him understood his plan, and the singing and exaggerated acting skills in front of him were all for the purpose of "raising the price".
Wu Ling took a sip of the digestion tea and said unmoved, "Okay, since you two want to play, I'll play with you."
After putting down the tea cup, Wu Ling said with sympathy, "Oh, why is such a good child so unfortunate? Well, how can you help her?"
"Ahem, this matter needs to be discussed in detail, Your Highness..."
While Wu Ling and the two people opposite were discussing how many things they could "help" Zhu Zhuqing, Zhu Zhuqing, the party involved, was already eating surrounded by many elders.
Listening to the few elders around who had not seen him for a long time talking about Wu Ling, Zhu Zhuqing also understood this more and more.
She didn't say a word, she just silently ate the many delicacies that she had not been able to eat a long time ago.
A few years ago, since her fiancé Dai Mubai failed in the first challenge, her quality of life and cultivation resources began to gradually decrease. Until the challenge two months ago, with Dai Mubai's twenty-ninth failure, her resources in both life and cultivation had been reduced to the level of ordinary tribesmen. This also marked that the family's hope for her had almost reached rock bottom.
That's right, her fate in the clan was actually decided by an outsider, or a familiar stranger. Even though her talent was clearly among the top three in the entire clan, it still couldn't cover up the fact that her fiancé failed.
The failure of her fiancé means certain death, because this is the tradition of her ancestors since ancient times, so for her who is labeled as mortal, she has been abandoned by her family.
But now, with the gentle greetings and the delicious dishes, she can feel that all this is hard-won after experiencing the trough, and she also knows very well what all this Root is now.
No matter how indifferent Zhu Zhuqing's character is, she still couldn't help but think in her heart, "Is this the benefit of being attached to the right person? If, if my fiancé is him..."
The scene came to the banquet hall again.
"Two hundred Soul Elder level and fifty Soul Ancestor level Spirit Tool at the original price per month. This is the bottom line."
At this time, Zhu Juqing was completely speechless. She was looking at the "confrontation" between the two in front of her with cold sweat. At this time, she sighed in her heart again, "You are really right. Otherwise, I can't even talk to him. Then it will be free and I will give him money."
Not to mention Zhu Juqing, the leader of the clan, even Star Luo Emperor, the head of the country, was a little surprised. He didn't have a detailed chat with Wu Ling yesterday. After talking with him today, he discovered that Holy Son's brain is as unfathomable as his strength.
At the end, Wu Ling asked, "By the way, one last question, if I don't help, what will be the outcome of Zhu Zhuqing?"
Zhu Juqing finally intervened and replied, "The only possibility is death."
"Then, let her try this road first." Wu Ling said with interest.
The plot of Zhu Zhuqing will be over in the next chapter, and then it will be the plot of the Heaven Dou Empire.
