The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 682: No One Expected His Highness’ Brilliance

His spiritual aura and Taoist art were no match for Helian Wei Wei’s…

Zongzheng Wen Ren placed one of his hands on his forehead as he lowered his head, ashamed to lift his gaze.

He could clearly sense the gazes of the onlookers that were fixed on him.

It got increasingly difficult for him to hide his emotions.

He was like a conceited jester who had been boasting in front of the experts, and eventually, become the one to be ridiculed…

The absolute victory caused the palpable excitement to buzz through the changed air!

Zongzheng Yu Er parted her lips, as though she had something to express. However, she merely made an inaudible voice before she was interrupted.

The exorcist who was standing aside spoke, “Princess, please stop arguing. Helian Wei Wei is prettier and stronger than you. She could defeat the Crown Prince, not to mention you. She will definitely be everyone’s preferred candidate. Besides, she is the primary consort who is officially married to the Third Prince. You’ll humiliate yourself if you continue to pick on Helian Wei Wei. ”

Upon listening to the exorcist’s remark, Zongzheng Yu Er’s words died in her throat. “Bai Yue, please remember that you are a citizen of Xuanyuan Kingdom, not the War Dragon Dynasty. Do you even know what you are saying? Who do you think you are speaking to!”

“Of course I know who I am speaking to. Your Highness, you are the princess of Xuanyuan Kingdom. You should have given up when you were rejected the first time. However, due to your shamelessness, you have not only humiliated yourself but also the people of the Xuanyuan Dynasty.” Exorcists in the Xuanyuan Kingdom had always had high reputation. The more powerful the exorcist was, the more arrogant he or she would be, and Bai Yue was a perfect example.

Zongzheng Yu Er never thought that she would be reprimanded by people of her own nation. She opened her mouth, but no word escaped her throat.

She was surrounded by exorcists from the other countries. They were staring at her with eyes full of apparent disdain, as though she was unworthy of her title as a princess!

Zongzheng Yu Er’s face was flushed red as if her heart had been scalded by boiling water. She had never been publicly embarrassed before.

Zongzheng Yu Er looked at Huangzi Nation’s messenger expectantly, hoping that he could support her.

However, after he witnessed the commotion, realizing how the exorcists of Xuanyuan Kingdom despised their princess, Lord Wang was unable to argue with them.

He was looking at the big picture.

Since the War Dragon Dynasty had won the competition, their plans to besiege the city had become obsolete.

It would be a better option for them to withdraw themselves immediately and leave the Capital tomorrow.

Then, the Third Prince would probably not do anything to them.

After all, no country would attack visiting envoys violently.

As long as they did not continue to provoke the Third Prince, they would be fine.

This was why Lord Wang agreed to the proposal to lay siege to the Capital.

At worst, they would simply lose the competition.

Little did they know that the war had only started!

At that moment, Nangong Lie, in a worship robe, entered the Great Hall. He scanned the hall with his alluring eyes, and eventually locked gaze with Baili Jia Jue. He wore a grin as he said, “It seems like you are almost done here. I am done with my side too. The tasks you assigned are almost completed. I reckon that we will get the result real soon.”

Baili Jia Jue replied with a silent yet nonchalant nod.

Someone as intelligent as Helian Wei Wei immediately understood that they were plotting something.

Is His Highness up to something again?

The exorcists did not understand the meaning behind Nangong Lie’s words.

However, they were puzzled by his overdue arrival.

After all, if a worship administrator was present on scene, they would not have underestimated the War Dragon Dynasty.

Just as Nangong Lie finished his words, three people hurried into the Great Hall.

They were wearing military uniforms of different countries. Their collars were drenched in sweat and their faces were gloomy!

“Your Highness.”

“Lord.”

“Something bad has happened!”

Zongzheng Wen Ren was infuriated when the soldiers knelt before him. “Stand up and tell me what’s wrong!”

The soldiers trembled as they replied, “Xuan City, Xuan City has been blitzed. The King has ordered Your Highness to return immediately to lead the troop!”
