The Soldier King Becomes a Useless Little Girl-Chapter 453 - 450: Sikong Ran, Nothing Special

In the Longteng Palace, under the moonlight amid blooming flowers of the Imperial Garden, numerous court musicians were playing while several dancing girls danced gracefully.

Emperor Longteng and Empress Feng took their seats at the head of the gathering.

The Third Prince, along with Sikong Ran and Bai You, sat next to them, while on the other side was the mysterious guest from earlier at Taoyao Building, Boss Mu.

The banquet was filled with laughter and cheerful conversations.

"Indeed, Young Master Sikong is as exemplary as his reputation suggests, outstanding in both letters and martial prowess. Miss Bai is also deeply versed in her family’s learning. Both are truly a talented couple gracing Longteng. It’s Longteng’s fortune to have talents like you."

After a few drinks, Emperor Longteng, slightly tipsy, spoke highly of Sikong Ran.

"Your Majesty is too kind. Sikong is unworthy of such praise. This year’s Zixiao Palace Exam has produced several Spirit Masters, and among the martial artists, one in a hundred are chosen, but among Spirit Masters, it’s one in a thousand. Truly, Longteng is blessed with abundant talents."

Sikong Ran replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Longteng also showed a hint of pride.

"Young Master Sikong speaks too modestly, but indeed, those two Spirit Masters are quite remarkable, and one of them is my Seventh Prince. Summon the Seventh Prince here."

After a moment, Little Xinzhuo rushed over.

"Greetings to my father the Emperor, greetings Empress, Third Imperial Brother, and all the dignitaries." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Xinzhuo, summoned unexpectedly, was slightly surprised.

"Seventh Prince, these gentlemen are disciples from the Xuantian Sect. This is Master Mu, who is also a Spirit Master. In a few days, you will be entering Qingtian Academy. Pay your respects to them first."

Emperor Longteng introduced.

Little Xinzhuo, bowing his head, suddenly startled upon hearing "Xuantian Sect."

He looked up and immediately saw Bai You and Sikong Ran seated among the guests.

It was them!

Little Xinzhuo felt a surge of anger rising from his feet.

When he was still Ah Piao in the Luoyin Mountain Ghost Cave, he had met these two, the culprits who had wronged his sister.

Unconsciously, Xinzhuo clenched his fists.

"A Basic-level Spirit Master, the Seventh Prince has good potential."

Master Mu, looking at Xinzhuo, had a thoughtful look in his eyes.

This Seventh Prince is quite interesting.

"This one must be the Spirit Master who placed third in the Palace Exam. I wonder where the top-ranked advanced Spirit Master is now?"

Seeing Xinzhuo, Bai You felt slightly displeased.

The people of Longteng Palace, when they saw her and Brother Sikong, were all fawning over them, but this young lad, upon seeing them, showed no flattery, only indifference.

A mere boy, not even a Crown Prince, showed such audacity, truly needs disciplining.

"You mean Xin..."

Emperor Longteng was about to say more.

"In two days when school starts, everything will be clear. I’ve heard that Young Master Sikong is the esteemed new entry on the Eagle Chick List?"

Little Xinzhuo suddenly raised his voice.

"How audacious, Seventh Prince, to interrupt the Emperor!"

Empress Feng rebuked sharply.

A country boy, born to a mother but lacking her upbringing, daring to offend such honored guests as Sikong Ran.

"No need for the Empress to be angered. I think the Seventh Prince was merely curious, hence the discourtesy."

Sikong Ran spoke placatingly.

"So, the Eagle Chick List is not much after all. I take my leave."

Little Xinzhuo dropped these words, without bowing, and took his leave.

Sikong Ran was taken aback.

Emperor Longteng too, his face turning ashen, was about to rebuke.

"Ha ha, Your Majesty, this Seventh Prince of yours is no ordinary being. I’ve decided, after he enters the Academy, I will take the Seventh Prince as my disciple."

Just then, Master Mu stood up, watching the departing Little Xinzhuo.

Ghost Energy... It seems he has found the one he was looking for.
