Chapter 81: The Crown Prince Invites You 👑

CHAPTER 81: The Crown Prince Requests Your Presence

Upon opening the door, Wu Qianqian, dressed in a blue brocade robe, stood gracefully outside.

“Chu Yang, it really is you.” Wu Qianqian’s gaze was complex as she looked at Chu Yang. She never dreamed that Chu Yang would suddenly arrive at Iron Cloud City. Moreover, his presence had immediately captured the attention of the heaven-mending crown prince.

When Tie Butian asked her, Wu Qianqian could hardly believe that the Chu Yang mentioned by the crown prince was the same person she had met in Purple Bamboo Garden. She thought it must be a coincidence, perhaps another young man with the same name.

Surely, there must be another young genius named Chu Yang.

Although the Chu Yang from Purple Bamboo Garden was clever, his cultivation was too low to warrant the crown prince’s attention.

However, now that this familiar face appeared before her, her doubts vanished.

“Elder Sister Wu, what brings you here?” Chu Yang asked in surprise.

“What? Am I not allowed to come?” As Wu Qianqian spoke, her cheeks flushed. She recalled Du Shiqing’s words to the crown prince: this young man had a pitiful background. He liked his elder sister, but his senior brother tried to take her away out of impulse and ended up killing him… What a shame for such talent.

Hmm, his elder sister seems to be the daughter of the sect master of Sky Tower…

As Wu Qianqian thought of this, her face grew hot. The sect master of Sky Tower’s daughter? Her father had no other children. Could it be that Chu Yang likes her?

But… how sudden is this situation…

“Uh, of course you can come,” Chu Yang scratched his head and took a step back, “Elder Sister, please come in.”

“You are no longer a disciple of Sky Tower. My father has issued a decree expelling you from our ranks. I can’t call you ‘Elder Brother’ anymore.” Wu Qianqian felt a bit regretful. Was Chu Yang really expelled just like that?

Additionally, Wu Qianqian wanted to widen the distance between them with this statement, to prevent him from getting too close. This was Iron Cloud City; if anything went wrong, it wouldn’t matter for Chu Yang, but it would damage Sky Tower’s reputation.

“Uh, then I’ll call you ‘Sister.’” Chu Yang clapped his head and said, “It seems you are older than me. I’ll call you Qianqian… Sister?”

Wu Qianqian’s beautiful face turned crimson, and she pouted, “What’s with the flowery words! Hurry and follow me.”

“Follow you?”

“The crown prince sent me to invite you. I really can’t see what’s so good about you that the crown prince would specifically want to meet you,” Wu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him.

“If he specifically wants to see me, then I won’t go!” Chu Yang smiled calmly, “If you were sent to invite me, then I’ll go.”

“‘To see’ and ‘to invite’ are two different things. It concerns Tie Butian's attitude,” Chu Yang thought. He had already established a strong reputation by surrounding Tie Butian with his well-crafted information and sharp gaze, showcasing his speed and decisiveness. Du Shiqing had praised him endlessly, and the Heavenly Weapon Pavilion was a formidable temptation. Now, he also had the endorsement of Iron Dragon City.

The fact that Iron Dragon City had approached him would surely be explained to Tie Butian. Chu Yang was certain of this. And Iron Dragon City’s description would confirm another matter: his keen insight and unparalleled wisdom! His precise judgment on the world situation and deep understanding of Diwu Qingrou!

All of this was connected to the survival of the entire Iron Cloud Nation, to Tie Butian’s victory or defeat against Diwu Qingrou! If Tie Butian didn’t see him, that would indeed be the greatest mystery.

Since leaving Sky Tower and joining Du Shiqing’s group, Chu Yang had been meticulously planning, all for this day!

And that day had finally arrived!

At this crucial moment, Chu Yang certainly wouldn’t miss the opportunity to elevate his status.
