The young lady in the highest seat wore a brightly colored dress. Such a color combination would normally seem too gaudy, but it wasn’t a problem on this young lady at all. Her tall and slender figure brought out the best in the dress, and her exposed shoulders were elegant, lovely, and well-shaped. There was an ivory luster on her skin from the light reflecting off the surrounding pearls that softened the complicated colors of her dress. The long dress likewise also offset the fairness of her skin. A jade feather was stuck between her temples, which made her features look even more refined. In terms of charm, she was actually not much inferior to the Ocean races' number one beauty, the Mermaid Queen. And since she looked a bit younger, she had even more room for growth.

The white-clad servant only needed one look at her before endless words of praise surged within him. He beceven more sure that he had to protect this beautiful princess’ determination.

If Zu An were here, he would have noticed that she looked very similar to an old friend of his.

The jade feather lady arrived by the window and looked in the direction of the Dragon Palace. She said coldly, “that Dragon King is crafty and treacherous. He even suggested that I bechis concubine, and only then would he consider our alliance.”

The white-clad servant was shocked. “Princess, you absolutely cannot abandon your lifetof happiness!”

The jade feather lady’s expression remained calm. “If it could really save the Fiend races, sacrificing an individual’s happiness would hardly be a big deal at all. However, that Dragon King’s intentions aren’t pure and he only wants to take advantage of me. He will likely go back on his word even if I agree.”

The white-clad servant sighed in relief. “The princess is wise. That Dragon King really isn’t a good person!”

“Dragons are lustful by nature, so it isn’t too strange for him to have such thoughts. However, he shouldn’t be giving out empty promises. I am truly a bit disappointed in this Dragon King.” The jade feather lady’s expression was ice-cold.

The white-clad servant felt a bit of a headache. “But if the Dragon King is unreliable, who else can we ask for help from? Should we talk to the Mermaid Queen again? She is probably the one who is most determined to resist the monsters among the Ocean races.” There was a bit of expectation within him as he said that. Even though he would eternally love and respect the princess, the Mermaid Queen really was too beautiful. No man wouldn’t want to see her a second tafter seeing her once.

When she saw the white-clad guard’s passionate eyes, a devastatingly beautiful face appeared in the jade feather lady’s mind. Even though they were both women, she still remembered the shock she'd felt when meeting the latter back then. She had always been confident in her own appearance, but even she had to admit that she was a bit inferior to the Mermaid Queen. What man would be able to forget a woman that beautiful?

She shook her head a bit. “Even though the Mermaid Queen is resolute in her intent to resist, she isn’t strong enough. She can only rely on her influence to lead the Ocean races’ forces in resistance. Even though she is extremely beautiful, who would be that easily affected by her in this matter of life and death? That is, unless she is willing to serve another with her body, but judging from our interactions, her temperament is proud and lofty. She definitely wouldn’t lower herself to do something like that.”

The white-clad guard nodded in agreement. His impression of the Mermaid Queen was extremely high. He felt that such a goddess was someone who was supposed to be adored by all and not defiled by any one man.

“I only fear that the Dragon King will make simproper demands of her, just as he did toward the princess...” The white-clad guard was about to continue but hesitated.

The jade feather lady smiled. “She is so pretty. If she could be so easily fooled, men would have already devoured her until not even bones were left. Rather than worrying about her, I believe it might be more worth our tto think about our current circumstances.”

The white-clad guard knew that his thoughts had been seen through and his face heated up. “I’ve benefited from the princess’ advice.”

The jade feather lady sat down in front of the table and picked up a teacup to take a sip. Her beautiful, slender fingers were actually even a bit fairer than the cup made out of shells. Her finger lightly tapped on the table as she said, “There should be snews from that side.”

A black-clad guard quickly rushed over as she spoke. He bowed toward her respectfully and quickly said, “What the princess has predicted is correct. The Dragon King has met with a group of mysterious guests and they had a very joyous conversation. I secretly tailed behind them and confirmed that the guests were the emissaries sent by the monsters.”

The white-clad guard was shocked when he heard this. “The monsters’ emissaries!”

The jade feather lady’s expression turned cold. “The Dragon Lord wants to have a foot in each camp after all. If we hadn’t made preparations beforehand, we might’ve been fooled without even knowing a thing.”

“This Dragon King really is a bit too sinister,” the white-clad guard said furiously. “No wonder he gave us the cold shoulder this entire time.”

The jade feather lady gently drew circles on the cup. “I was almost fooled by this Dragon King before. I really thought that he was only lusting for my beauty. Now, it seems that was nothing more than a reason to hold us up.”

The white-clad guard blushed with shame. He had cursed the Dragon King quite liberally as of late and treated him as just an old pervert. Now, he finally understood that anyone who managed to beca big shot in such a huge position definitely wouldn’t let lust get in the way of more important matters.

The black-clad guard’s demeanor becgrim. He coldly said, “Princess, the current situation is very unfavorable for us. Judging from the smile he showed when he personally sent off the monster emissary, I suspect that he is already partial to the monsters’ side.”

“You don’t need to just suspect that. He is definitely biased toward the monsters' side,” the jade feather lady said coldly. “The saintess’ predictions were correct after all. This Dragon King wouldn’t dare to take on such a huge risk to side with us. As long as the monsters throw out an olive branch, he will definitely side with them.” ꭆ

“Then doesn’t that mean we made a trip for nothing? Should we quickly report this to the saintess?” When he mentioned the saintess, the white-clad guard’s eyes were full of respect.

“I fear that we won’t be able to leave anymore,” said the jade feather lady calmly.

“Is the princess saying that the Dragon King will use us as an offering to those monsters?” The white-clad guard’s expression changed.

The jade feather lady gave him a look of praise. “That’s right. You’ve matured quite a bit as of late.”

The white-clad guard reflexively stuck out his chest a bit when he received her words of praise, but he quickly thought of the dangers ahead and asked with a worried frown, “Then doesn’t that mean we’re in a hopeless situation?”

Even though their cultivations weren’t low, the Dragon Palace was a place full of powerful cultivators. If they really fought against each other, they wouldn’t have a chance at all.

The black-clad guard said bitterly, “While the Dragon King still hasn’t acted yet, I’ll escort the princess to safety even if I might die for it!”

“Xuanxuan, stop trying to act cool already. It hasn’t reached that point yet.” The jade feather lady rolled her eyes.

The black-clad guard’s face heated up. He looked away stiffly.

The jade feather lady said, “The saintess already predicted this situation, so she entrusted a strategy tobeforehand.”

The two guards were overjoyed when they heard that. “As expected of the saintess. She employs divine strategy and wonderful planning as expected!”

The jade feather lady spun around, and her brightly-colored dress turned into the Dragon Palace’s most ordinary guard uniform. “Xuanxuan, have you investigated the location of those monster emissaries yet?”

“I have. What is the princess planning to do?” The black-clad guard was stunned.

“Say, do you think the Dragon King can still collaborate with those alien monsters if their emissaries die in the Dragon Palace?” There was a cunning smile on the jade feather lady’s face.
