Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Chapter 537: Domineering Fifth Princess

“Fifth Highness, I apologize. As I have also invited friends today, I would still need to request that you find a different place to dine at,” said Fu Chengyu without being servile nor overbearing.

“Your Highness, Ninth Prince, don’t forget your identity. Nan Xia Country is merely a vassal country. Even if it was promoted to a Tier 1 vassal country by luck, it is still ultimately a vassal country,” said Si Nanchen menacingly as his expression changed.

Si Nanchen’s words were like a sharp sword, piercing into Ling Chuxi and the rest of the groups’ hearts. Perhaps ordinary citizens would be proud to be a Tier 1 vassal country, but to them, it was still a great humiliation.

“You should also not forget that you are within the borders of Nan Xia Country,” retorted Fu Chengyu coldly.

“Do all of you really think that we would not dare to take action even if we are within Nan Xia Country’s borders?” Si Nanchen said with a sneer. Being stirred up as such by Fu Chengxing, he already had no room to retreat.

Fu Chengyu and Si Nanchen’s gazes clashed, and the surrounding atmosphere became even more odd and heavy.

“I want to see who it is who dares make a move in this Nan Xia capital of mine,” rang out a cold and clear voice. Under the protection of two forbidden army leaders, the fifth princess walked up the stairs dressed in a military uniform. Behind her, a small group of warriors belonging to the imperial city’s forbidden army followed. And by the corners where no one else could see, there were vague traces of murderous intent dispersing over from secret guards hiding in the dark.

Domineering. This was the first impression Ling Chuxi had when she saw the fifth princess. In this period of almost half a year when they had not met, the fifth princess seemed to have undergone a heaven turning and earth flipping change. She actually possessed the majestic aura an emperor would have now. If it were not for seeing her familiar cute and pretty face, Ling Chuxi almost did not dare to believe that this was her own disciple that loved to cry and howl like a wolf.

The small troop of forbidden army warriors who followed her up the stairs had strong and drawn bows and arrows in their hands all pointed towards Si Nanchen and the rest of his group. These bows and arrows were the kind that had been specially made for the country’s forbidden army so the might of their shots were much stronger than those of ordinary bows and arrows.

There were also faint green rays of light emitting from the arrows strung in the bows, showing that they were obviously coated with a potent poison. This time, even Si Nanchen and the rest of his group did not dare to underestimate the threat this posed. Experts in the realm of Great Fulfilment were humans and not deities after all. Although they could withstand the might of such strong arrows, they weren’t necessarily able to withstand such potent poison.

Seeing the fifth princess appear so brilliantly, Fu Chengxing was so happy that flowers were practically blooming in his heart. He never thought that even she would be swept up in this. How great that he could kill two birds with one stone and rid himself of two strong opponents in one shot. ‘Fight, fight, fight!’ chanted Fu Chengxing in his heart. He was really excited and hoped that they would all start fighting soon. Although Nan Xia Country had yet to have the precedence of a woman ascending the throne, Fu Chengxing still wanted to kill off any small possibility.

Ling Chuxi swept a cold glance at Fu Chengxing from the corner of her eye. On the surface, her expression remained unchanged, but she had already taken this incident as a strike against him in her heart.

Si Nanchen also took this opportunity to size up the fifth princess. Before coming to Nan Xia Country, he had already inquired about the status of its royals. Hearsay, amongst all the princes and princesses, Fu Chengyu and the fifth princess who were currently before him had the most outstanding potential, and were the best candidates in the fight to become emperor.

It was just that Fu Chengyu had always been uninterested in matters of the world and the fifth princess was willful, coquettish and incapable of being serious when dealing with proper matters. However, from his encounter with her today, he realized that she was totally different from the rumors. The fifth princess before him was beautiful and had the naturally majestic aura that members of royal families possessed.

Although Nan Xia Country never had the precedence of a woman ascending the throne, given the current state of things, any wise king would consider the fifth princess as a successor. Si Nanchen frowned. If the fifth princess were to ascend the throne in Nan Xia Country, then this was definitely not a good thing for Ding Lin Country as the sovereign country.

“Your Highness, Fifth Princess, don’t forget who you are dealing with. If you intend on carrying things out like this, could it be that you want to start a war with Ding Lin Country?” sneered Si Nanchen as he looked at the fifth princess with an indistinct murderous aura appearing on his face. He wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the fifth princess or at least kill off her hopes of fighting to ascend the throne.
