Chapter 395 Purple Fish Palace 18
Her plan was simple, yet it was indeed effective.
With just one sentence, she managed to create a rift in the temporary alliance between the Crown Prince and Li Aotian.
Once the seed of doubt was planted, it would only take minutes for it to take root, sprout, and grow strong.
Nangong Liuyun looked at the delicate and lovely little girl before him and couldn't help but sigh a little.
What to do? He liked this little girl so much, so much that he was practically suffocating from it, and he really wished he could tie her to his side and keep her with him every step of the way.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the great hall was a little strange.
His Highness the Crown Prince was swaggering and showing off proudly in front of Nangong Liuyun.
Nangong Liuyun, however, didn't even glance at him, only focusing on gazing at Su Luo with doting affection.
Yaochi Fairy stared at Su Luo with resentment and jealousy, wishing her gaze could bore a hole in her face.
And Su Luo, calm and composed, was sowing discord between His Highness the Crown Prince and Li Aotian, trying to make them fall apart on their own.
It was in this peculiar atmosphere that Beichen Ying sighed softly, breaking the strange silence.
"There's not much time left. There's still the most important hurdle ahead. Are you guys going or not?" Beichen Ying glared at Nangong Liuyun, feeling frustrated that he wasn't living up to expectations.
That hurdle ahead was greatly related to the Crystal Purple Fish, and now, the Crystal Purple Fish was in the Crown Prince's hand.
Should they make a move to snatch it? Beichen Ying stroked his chin, glancing somewhat maliciously at the Crystal Purple Fish in His Highness the Crown Prince's hand.
The Crown Prince was immediately startled out of his arrogance by Beichen Ying's gaze.
He had quite a few people with him, and also the two temporary allies, Li Aotian and Li Yaoyao, but His Highness the Crown Prince had to admit that if Nangong Liuyun was determined to snatch it, then he definitely wouldn't be able to keep this Crystal Purple Fish.
The Crown Prince snorted coldly at Nangong Liuyun: "His Highness Prince Jin, surely you wouldn't stoop to snatching other people's treasures, would you?"
Nangong Liuyun curled his lips into a half-smile, raising an eyebrow as he looked at the Crystal Purple Fish, a flash of cold-bloodedness passing through his evil and charming eyes: "Do you really think that's a treasure?"
His Highness the Crown Prince's heart trembled, then he sneered repeatedly: "Sour grapes! I didn't expect you, Nangong Liuyun, to be nothing more than this!"
The implication was that Nangong Liuyun couldn't get the Crystal Purple Fish, so he deliberately said his Crystal Purple Fish was fake, clearly out of jealousy.
Nangong Liuyun smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying.
Nangong Liuyun's indifferent and nonchalant attitude completely ignited the anger in His Highness the Crown Prince's heart, and he snorted coldly: "If I prove that this is a genuine Crystal Purple Fish, what will you do?"
"Want to gamble again?" Nangong Liuyun's ill-intentioned gaze sized up His Highness the Crown Prince from head to toe, then he sighed with a tone of pity, "Let's not, shall we? You've already lost fifteen hundred green crystals to my Luo'er, it feels a bit too much to bully you again."
What Nangong Liuyun said was the truth, but there were always people who took others' truths as the opposite of what they meant, and His Highness the Crown Prince was such a person.
Nangong Liuyun's words completely agitated His Highness the Crown Prince, who roared angrily with a cold expression: "Nangong Liuyun, you're going too far! Fine, I'll gamble with you! Since you just mentioned fifteen hundred green crystals, then, if you lose, that debt of fifteen hundred green crystals will be transferred to you, how about it?!"
After saying this, His Highness the Crown Prince immediately applauded himself for his quick thinking.
