The Peerless Tang Sect’s Sun and Moon Glory
Chapter 5 Choice
On the crystal dining table closest to Xu Zihuang in the hall, a blond girl who looked sixteen or seventeen years old gracefully held a glass cup in her hand. The girl's face was extremely beautiful, and her loose blond hair glowed with a dark golden color under the slightly dim soul light, as if covered with a layer of tassels, adding a bit of psychedelic color to her. Wearing a pure white pleated long skirt, revealing her white shoulders and collarbones.
The precious ice silk gloves on both hands wrap the delicate jade fingers.
A sapphire necklace the size of a dove egg is dotted on the chest, complementing the girl's fair skin.
The light of wisdom shone in her blue eyes, and around her, there were a number of other noble ladies vying to gather around her.
When his eyes moved to the girl's side, Xu Zihuang narrowed his eyes slightly.
He has always had a very good memory, almost capable of photographic memory. Perhaps this is also a precursor to his awakening of the golden pupil of his spiritual martial soul.
From his memory, he remembered that this girl seemed to be the daughter of a powerful marquis in the Sun and Moon Empire. When he was young, he had contact with him.
As for the name, Xu Zihuang didn't care at first, so he naturally had no impression of it in his mind.
The girl who seemed to be having a conversation, but was actually focused on Xu Zihuang, deliberately pretended to be surprised. Her red lips were slightly opened and she raised the glass cup in her hand and made a gesture to Xu Zihuang like a noble of the Sun and Moon Empire. elegant etiquette.
Xu Zihuang also nodded slightly, then withdrew his gaze.
A very scheming woman.
This is Xu Zihuang's evaluation of girls.
No matter how naturally the girl handles it, there is no flaw in the expression on her face, but the emotions deep in her eyes are difficult to conceal.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and they are also the area of the human body that most easily exposes a person’s true emotions. Only extremely powerful soul masters can hide perfectly.
As the son of a very powerful prince, Xu Zihuang received education from an early age to become a superior in the royal family. Understanding people's hearts is the most critical one.
Coupled with the awakened spiritual attribute of the golden pupil of the martial soul, he can observe the changes deep in people's eyes in more detail.
"Your Highness, that is Yi Ziyue, the second daughter of the Marquis of Yicheng in Mingdu." Yu Yun, the leader of the Lan Hai Soul Mentor Group on the side, reminded him respectfully.
Yu Yun is an old man who looks to be less than 1.65 meters tall, with a thin build and dark skin. A typical person from the coastal areas of the Sun and Moon Empire.
He originally didn't have much respect for the exiled Prince. After all, with the current situation, no one dares to have anything to do with Xu Zihuang, who is almost impossible to turn around.
But seeing the respectful attitude of Hai Xiao, who was the confidant of the eldest prince Xu Tianran, towards Xu Zihuang, he naturally did not dare to behave independently because of his quick thinking.
Xu Zihuang put down the gold vessel engraved with magnificent patterns indifferently, and raised his head again to look in the direction of Yi Ziyue.
"Just ten of them. Commander Yu Yun, please go back and thank the emperor for my kindness."
The imperial brother he was referring to was, of course, the eldest prince Xu Tianran who was the most promising to inherit the throne of the Sun and Moon Empire.
"Your Highness, I will convey this message to His Highness the First Prince." Yu Yun quickly stood up and saluted.
Xu Zihuang didn't say anything more, stood up and left the hall directly under the escort of several soldiers.
The moment Xu Zihuang stood up and left, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed. Because those noble ladies all understood that Xu Zihuang had already made a choice.
Many hopeful eyes moved to Xu Zihuang, but no one said a word.
It wasn't until Xu Zihuang left that the whispers of conversation in the hall came to mind.
"Zi Yue, I just noticed that His Highness the Prince has been looking at us. Do you think we are very likely to be selected?!" A blue-haired girl with an extremely proud figure next to Yi Zi Yue said with a smile. He clenched his pink fists with joy, and his chest was filled with waves.
"If we can really give birth to an heir with the royal purple dragon-slaying martial spirit, the family will be able to change its decline."
Most of the hundred noble ladies who came here were in a similar situation to her. Because of various difficulties.
Otherwise, if you are a top noble from a powerful family, you will not let the family's legitimate daughter do such a thing.
Being gossiped behind the back by other nobles, more importantly, this kind of matter involving the inheritance of the Sun and Moon Empire's royal family is too sensitive. It might bring trouble to the family.
However, Yi Ziyue was an exception. She asked to come over on her own initiative, and even did not hesitate to strain her relationship with her family.
She is only the second daughter in the family, although in the Sun Moon Empire and the original Douluo Three Kingdoms, women can also inherit family titles. But she is not a direct descendant.
He will never be associated with his family's title throughout his life, and may even be used as a marriage tool to consolidate his family's power.
She is not willing to do this. Instead of being manipulated by her family and living her whole life like a puppet, she might as well try to create a turn for the better on her own.
Relying on her family's power, she had obtained some inside information about Xu Zihuang.
Innate soul power and pure blood have been extremely rare in the royal family of the Sun and Moon Empire for thousands of years.
If it works properly, the possibilities are endless.
Because of the surging emotions in her heart, Yi Ziyue's jade hands holding the glass cup trembled slightly, and the corners of her mouth curved in a charming and confident arc.
All the noble ladies who gathered around Yi Ziyue were very proud of themselves, while Yu Yun, who was sitting in the main seat in the hall, breathed a sigh of relief.
"Commander of the Haixiao Division, since His Highness the Prince has made his choice, I will go and prepare for my return trip early tomorrow morning. I won't bother you for the rest of the night."
The ten noble ladies headed by Yi Ziyue selected by Xu Zihuang were basically the most powerful nobles behind them. Since he stayed on the island, the return journey would not be as stressful as when he came.
"Commander Yu Yun, please excuse me." Hai Xiao did not get up, but just watched Yu Yun leave the castle. Then he ordered his men to take the ten selected noble ladies to move into the castle.
Those who were not selected were sent back to the giant ship. The castle can't accommodate that many people, and more people are more likely to cause problems.
Hai Xiao led his burly body to the flower garden in front of the castle, looked at the silver crescent moon hanging high in the night sky, and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Someone is coming."
A soldier covered in blue armor knelt down on one knee behind Hai Xiao. This blue armor is the standard equipment of the Xihai Soul Instructor Group.
From this, it can be seen that it is completely different from Yu Yun's miscellaneous soul mentor group.
"I'm going to inform you that everyone should not rest tonight and strengthen the security on the city wall. Especially near the port in the east."
"Yes! Division commander!"
