Chapter 284: Coming to the Door (2)

"Then let's see them; I'll have some fun with him." Su Luo's face was full of smiles as she gave Nangong Liuyun a push. "You go first, I'll be right behind you."

Nangong Liuyun looked at Su Luo with some amusement. Given his understanding of this girl, she was definitely going to scheme against someone again. However, he really liked this sinister and cunning little girl; he liked her more and more.

"Fine then, this Prince will keep them here for you, and wait for you to arrive before playing with them slowly." Nangong Liuyun rubbed her head with a chuckle. It was rare for his Girl Luo to be in the mood to play with people; that kid from the Li family was truly lucky.

Watching Nangong Liuyun's receding back, Su Luo's eyes narrowed slightly, and a sly smile curled at the corners of her mouth.

The front hall of Prince Jin's Residence.

His Highness Prince Jin leaned lazily and casually against a red sandalwood armchair, his hand slowly tapping the armrest one beat at a time as he nonchalantly glanced sideways at the person sitting below him.

Liu Potian, the Old Master of the Liu family and also the pillar of the Liu household, was actually also secretly sizing up Nangong Liuyun at this moment.

Liu Potian had long since heard that His Highness Prince Jin was a Genius of the current age, already a sixth rank expert at such a young age. He was simply the best among the younger generation, and no one could hope to match him. In the past, he naturally wouldn't have dared to offend this rising star that was His Highness Prince Jin.

But now… a smug look curled at the corners of Liu Potian's mouth. His luck recently had been incredibly good, as if he had divine help; yesterday, he actually made a Breakthrough from the sixth rank in one go, reaching the long-dreamed-of seventh rank!

The seventh rank. In the current Dongling Kingdom, who else would dare to be arrogant and overbearing in front of him, Liu Potian? Even if His Highness Prince Jin was a Dragon, he would have to stay hidden now!

Based on his smugness after the advancement, when he learned from Liu Chengfeng that the cyan crystal stone which was almost in their hands had actually vanished into thin air, how could Liu Potian—who was currently full of fighting spirit and wanting to find someone to fight at any moment to show off his powerful strength—endure this?

Therefore, without a second word, he brought Liu Chengfeng and came to the door aggressively to demand an explanation. While he said it was for an explanation, it was actually to demand the crystal stone.

However, he still had a bit of reason left. Because he was wary of His Highness Prince Jin's talent, strength, and power, his words and actions were still somewhat restrained.

In fact, Liu Potian was only preoccupied with his own excitement, but how could he know that His Highness Prince Jin had already stepped into the seventh rank Realm one step ahead of him? So this time, he was destined to take a heavy fall.

But Liu Potian didn't know, so when he faced His Highness Prince Jin, he used the tone of someone who relied on their seniority.

He stared indifferently at His Highness Prince Jin and said in a cold voice, "Your Highness, I heard that the thief who stole the Li family's cyan crystal stone that day was brought to your residence. Is this true?"

Liu Potian's manner and tone were utterly supercilious, all of which displayed his arrogance as a seventh rank expert.

Nangong Liuyun only gave him a faint glance, his expression calm. "Liu Potian, who gave you the courage to dare to question this Prince?"

Liu Potian raised his eyebrows arrogantly, and that lackey Liu Chengfeng said from the side, "Prince Jin, my grandfather is now a seventh rank expert. Even His Majesty treats my grandfather with great courtesy; your attitude is somewhat lacking the grace of an Empire's prince, isn't it?"

Liu Chengfeng, this fence-sitter, was terrified of Nangong Liuyun before, but now that he knew his grandfather had promoted to the seventh rank, his attitude immediately took a complete turn.

Nangong Liuyun's well-defined, fair fingers picked up a blue and white porcelain teacup. He lowered his eyes to take a small sip, then narrowed his Phoenix eyes with satisfaction.

The curling, rising mist covered the flash of light in his beautiful dark eyes; no one could see clearly the deep meaning within those beautiful eyes.
