155: Princess? It's just a title.

“Young, Young Lord, is that the Little Princess?!”

In Dragon Country, who didn’t know that the Dragon Lord’s most beloved was his youngest daughter, Xuan Yuan Qingxue?

Now that Xuan Yuan Qingxue had appeared before him, Zhu Qingtai said it wasn’t surprising, but that was a lie.

He was as excited as if he had seen his favorite idol.

“Look at how excited you are; it’s just a princess.”

Just a princess, it’s not like he hadn’t seen one before.

His mother, Yang Qian, was a princess, and a princess of the God Race at that.

He was even the son of a God Race princess, did he boast about it?

And his father was a prince of the Immortal Race!

Although he was Li Xiaofeng’s godson, wasn’t that still royalty?

Li Yao was the son of two such people; wasn’t his status more impressive than Xuan Yuan Qingxue’s?

Most importantly, his father was also the Guardian of the Nation of Dragon Country, a Titled Emperor Venerable; his status, no matter which one was mentioned, was no worse than the Dragon Lord’s, right?

So, when it came to comparing fathers, Li Yao truly feared no one.

“Ahem, Young Lord, I apologize, but this is my first time seeing a living princess.”

Xuan Yuan Qingxue: ???

What did that mean?

What did he mean by “first time seeing a living princess”?

Could it be that he had seen a dead princess?

“Princess, why are you here?”

“I am here on behalf of Dragon Country to interact with the Exchange Students.”

As she spoke, she sized up Li Yao.

Li Yao’s Physique was now comparable to a Saint-Rank Beast.

So, his body had gradually developed muscles—eight-pack abs, perfect pectoral muscles, and so on. All the dream Physiques a man could desire, Li Yao now possessed.

Xuan Yuan Qingxue was twenty years old this year, only two years older than Li Yao.

Unfortunately, until now, she had yet to find anyone who caught her eye.

But now, after seeing Li Yao, Xuan Yuan Qingxue immediately felt that Li Yao, whether in appearance or strength, was very much to her liking.

“I see. Then I won’t disturb you.”

“I have things to attend to, so I’ll be busy.”

Li Yao and Xuan Yuan Qingxue had no common ground.

Their fathers just happened to know each other; he didn’t know her, so what was there to talk about?

As for her appearance?

She looked quite good, but unfortunately, he wasn’t lacking in beautiful women around him.

Wang Xiaomei’s beauty was on par with Xuan Yuan Qingxue’s.

When one has seen many things, one naturally becomes immune to such matters.

If Xuan Yuan Qingxue had been a bit uglier, Li Yao might have taken a few more glances.

After all, in this Beast-Taming era, truly ugly people were rare.

“Wait a moment!”

Seeing Li Yao about to leave, Xuan Yuan Qingxue immediately spoke.

“Hmm?” Li Yao turned his head, looking at Xuan Yuan Qingxue in confusion.

Why was this woman so annoying?

He wasn’t familiar with her, so why did she suddenly stop him?

“Um, if it’s convenient, could we find a time to have dinner together?”

“After all, if your father grows old in the future, he will surely pass his duties to you, and we will meet again then.”

“So, why don’t we meet and have dinner to get acquainted?”

It seemed she had found a reason, and a faint blush appeared on Xuan Yuan Qingxue’s face.

In the distance, the Exchange Students, who were hiding in the corner watching the battle, were furious.

This woman was truly infuriating, wasn’t she?

She was openly using this opportunity to talk to Li Yao!

And with a valid reason!

Was this the advantage of the Human Race?

How hateful!

At this moment, a group of Cosmic-level and above powerhouses were observing the conversation between the two.

After all, this was a battle for a suitor!

A battle for a husband! Whoever could win would be able to marry Li Yao!

And in the future, it could even strengthen the relationship between the two races!

Li Yao’s identity, who didn’t know it now?

Li Zun was formidable, right?

His father! A Titled Emperor Venerable!

Yang Jian was formidable, right?

His maternal grandfather! A Titled Emperor Venerable!

Li Xiaofeng was formidable, right?

His godfather! A Titled Emperor Venerable!

With three Titled Emperor Venerables protecting him, who would dare to provoke him?

With this status, plus Li Yao’s talent, who wouldn’t want to get involved, or even have a child or two with him?

Now, hearing that Xuan Yuan Qingxue was so shameless as to use this opportunity to flirt with Li Yao, they instantly became displeased.

But there was nothing they could do; she was the Dragon Lord’s daughter, and their fathers indeed knew each other.

Using this as an excuse was truly unassailable.

“This little girl is truly detestable, using this excuse to get close.”

“Exactly, we strongly protest!”

...

Beside them, Yang Qian looked at the powerhouses complaining and immediately became annoyed.

“Ahem.” With just a few soft coughs, the powerhouses quickly restrained themselves.

They almost forgot that the judge for this event was Yang Qian.

As long as Yang Qian had no objections, they couldn’t do anything either.

Li Yao looked at the expectant Xuan Yuan Qingxue and felt speechless.

Why did she suddenly want to invite him to dinner?

He wasn't very familiar with Xuan Yuan Qingxue.

And even if his father passed on the duty of Guardian of the Nation to him in the future, he wouldn't necessarily meet Xuan Yuan Qingxue.

He always felt that Xuan Yuan Qingxue had ulterior motives for approaching him.

“Sorry, I have things to do. We can talk about dinner another time.”

Li Yao directly and coldly refused.

The smile on Xuan Yuan Qingxue’s face instantly froze.

Her head felt a little stiff as she mechanically looked at Li Yao.

What did she hear?

Li Yao actually refused!

Why???

She had been treated with superiority by the Dragon Lord since childhood, and almost all her requests were granted.

It could be said that she was accustomed to a life where her every wish was fulfilled.

Now, Li Yao’s direct refusal caught her completely off guard.

“You, you refused me?”

“Hmm? Was my expression not clear enough?”

“I have things to do; I’m leaving now.”

Li Yao left only a receding back. Xuan Yuan Qingxue, seeing this, seemed to suffer a blow.

Watching Li Yao’s departing back, her heart began to burn.

【Hehe, as expected of the legendary man!】

【This Princess has never been rejected since childhood; you are the first to refuse this Princess!】

【Very good! My heart has been stirred by you!】

【Is this the kind of man Father Emperor spoke of?】

Suddenly, Xuan Yuan Qingxue’s competitive spirit flared up.

She wanted to pursue Li Yao! To make Li Yao submit to her will!

Thinking of her future, with Li Yao as her consort, Xuan Yuan Qingxue unconsciously began to lose her composure.

Zhu Qingtai followed by Li Yao’s side and was astonished when he heard Li Yao refuse Xuan Yuan Qingxue.

“Young Lord, that’s a princess.”

“You actually refused her.” This seemed to be an incredible matter in Zhu Qingtai’s mind.

Li Yao stopped, looking at Zhu Qingtai with a hesitant expression.

“It’s just refusing a princess, what’s the big deal?”

“You need to change your mindset.”

“A princess? She’s just a symbol of status. Think about my status, Young Lord.”
