"Now let me introduce you to my beloved daughter," the Emperor said loudly from the top of the stairs to the people below, and the noise that had been chattering suddenly died down and everyone looked at the Emperor. A girl around eleven or twelve years old walked out wearing a yellow dress and dressed beautifully. "This is my most beloved daughter, Xuanyuan Xue. He's now a Water Magician of the fifth rank. " The emperor proudly introduced as he held Xuanyuan Xue's hand.

Everyone else praised, "The princess must have been a great beauty when she was growing up. A magus of the fifth rank at such a young age.

"The princess must have been a great mage when she was growing up. Now, she's already a rank 5 mage at such a young age. She's even more powerful than Xi Men Xue in the past."

"That's right. Who knows, maybe in the future, the princess will reach the Divine level."

"That's right, I didn't expect the princess to be so talented."

"…"

The emperor was very satisfied to hear the praises below. This was also the result he wanted. At the same time, he was extremely proud and had a smile on his face.

As for Xuanyuan Xue, she coldly looked at the people below. She was very arrogant, as if she was several levels higher than others.

Below, Long Teng's mother said to Long Teng: "Look, that's your future wife, isn't she very beautiful?" He looked at Long Teng with a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

When Long Teng saw Xuanyuan Xue's arrogant attitude, he felt very displeased. He did not answer his mother's question. Long Teng's mother thought that Long Teng was very satisfied, but she was just shy and couldn't bring herself to say it. So he didn't say anything.

"The ball is now officially starting." The emperor said loudly.

As the emperor's voice ended, the music slowly began to play.

Men continued to invite women to dance in the ballroom.

As for the arrogant princesses, there was no need to talk about them. They were rejected one after another. A man sat beside the Emperor. He drank his drink quietly. He looked down, as if he was high above.

The Soaring Dragon was the same, it did not move at all. There were also many girls who invited him to dance, but they all refused. At his side, Long Teng's mother said to Long Teng: "Teng'er, that princess is your fiancée, you should go over and invite her to dance."

After listening to his mother's words, Long Teng felt that this was how etiquette should be. Thus, he nodded. He stood up and walked towards Xuanyuan Xue.

"My beautiful princess, can I invite you to a dance?" Long Teng stretched out a hand, bent down and said solemnly.

At first, Xuanyuan Xue was reluctant, but when she saw that her father was winking at her, she immediately understood. At this time, Xuanyuan Xue immediately understood that this was her fiance. After looking at it a few more times, he felt that it was very good, but he could not cultivate it. What a pity, otherwise it would have been a good choice. But when he thought of how the Soaring Dragon could not cultivate, and how he was a genius. He couldn't help but feel sad, and a hint of contempt appeared in his eyes. In his mind, he began to think about how to get rid of this marriage. While he was pondering, his hand was placed on the Soaring Dragon's hand.

The two began to dance in the ballroom. Call it the focus of the scene.

Time always passes by unwittingly. A dance was also introduced.

"Another one." It wasn't just someone who shouted. The people in the ballroom responded in unison. Of course, there were also people who were unhappy. Those people were purely jealous.

Of course, the reason the two of them agreed to everyone's invitation was because it wasn't easy to reject. So two more jumped.

When it was over, Xuanyuan Xue whispered to Long Teng, "Wait a moment. After it's over, come to the back for a bit." Even though the voice was soft, it sounded like a command, as if it wanted to be used by a superior to a subordinate.

When Long Teng heard this, he was very unhappy. Ye Zichen replied casually.

Soon, the ball was over. Long Teng explained the reason to his mother. He was invited to the backyard.

"You're here." Just as Long Teng arrived at the rear courtyard, he saw Xuanyuan Xue sitting in a pavilion as she looked down at him condescendingly. There was a hint of contempt in his tone.

"Un, may I know why Your Highness is looking for me?" Long Teng said coldly without even looking at Xuanyuan Xue, as if he did not put her in his eyes.

When Xuanyuan Xue saw Long Teng's attitude, she knew that no one had ever talked to her like this before, let alone this trash who couldn't even cultivate. Anger welled up in his heart, and his eyes were immediately filled with rage, as though he was about to erupt. However, there was a pleading person who forcefully suppressed his raging fury. Ye Zichen calmed down.

He took a few deep breaths. Then, with a smile on his face and the same tone of voice, he said: "Long Teng, you should also know about the marriage between us."

Long Teng replied with a casual "Okay."

"I don't think the two of us are suitable at all. I like a peerless expert and a great hero. As for you, you know your own situation. You can neither practice magic nor practice dou qi. It can be said that you are a piece of trash. " As Xuanyuan Xue spoke up to this point, she listened and looked at Soaring Dragon. She saw that there was some anger on his face. Perhaps he was afraid of offending the Long family, or some other reason. You may not like to hear this, but it's the truth and you should face it. It's not escaping. Saying that you got lucky during the duel between you and Ximen Xue was just your luck. Otherwise, you might have lost your life. " He then looked at Long Teng and saw that he did not seem to be doing anything, so he continued, "I heard that you have been training very crazily for the past year and a half. But, I still advise you, don't make things difficult for yourself, don't become a strong person. You can do other things. With such a good family background, you can do anything you want. No matter how crazy you were, it was impossible for you to become a powerful cultivator no matter how much you trained. And I like strong people, and very strong ones at that. You're not that kind of person, so I don't think we're suitable. " Xuanyuan Xue said with a trace of pity.

Hearing this, Long Teng also knew why Xuanyuan Xue had called him here alone. It meant breaking off the engagement. Hearing Xuanyuan Xue's words, he was very angry in his heart, as if he was humiliating himself, as if he would definitely marry her. Even though those last words were his advice to himself, for his own good. This also showed that he was still kind in the bottom of his heart. Or her last words were to comfort herself.

But the Soaring Dragon truly did not appreciate this kindness. Be it in his previous life or this life, Soaring Dragon was a proud and arrogant person. He was obviously unhappy to hear others talk about him in such a manner. He unhappily replied, "Thank you for your good intentions. I know what you mean. Wasn't it just to cancel the engagement? Yes. I'll talk to my mother tomorrow. Is it okay? "

"Don't be angry, what I said was the truth. You can't be impulsive. I didn't say I'd break the engagement. I mean if you can't restrict me as a fiancé before we get married, I'll find what I like and get rid of it. Of course, I won't do anything wrong to you during this time. I won't interfere in your private life. Doing this will not affect the relationship between the Long family and the royal family, but it will also be a good thing for us. " Xuanyuan Xue explained.

When Long Teng heard this, he became even angrier, as if he couldn't find a woman. But I can't be angry. Endure it.

"I understand. In any case, this method is good for you no matter what you do."

Without waiting for Xuanyuan Xue to speak, Long Teng continued, "Princess, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

With that, Long Teng turned around angrily and walked back.

He muttered, "Tsk, narcissistic guy, do you think I want to marry you?"

Xuanyuan Xue did not flirt, but when she heard these words … He was also stunned. He was infuriated. But the dragon had already left. There was no place for Qi to go.
