"Your Highness!" A synchronized voice suddenly rang out, causing the general to snap back to his senses. He quickly turned around and saw two figures, dressed in luxurious attire, riding horses toward him.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Fourth Highness!" The general's forehead broke into a sweat, and he hurriedly bowed.
Li Yu observed everything, and her thoughts shifted slightly.
Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince, Fourth Prince. The identities of the two before her became clear.
The Crown Prince of Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe. The Fourth Prince, Xue Beng.
Her gaze first landed on Xue Beng. This one, for the sake of survival, was quite the actor. She had not expected him to appear here with Xue Qinghe.
Xue Qinghe... No, it's Qian Renxue!
Li Yu lips curled into a slight smile. This character, who had many dramatic scenes, was naturally unforgettable.
"Useless!" Xue Beng scolded. "When you see a woman, you can't even move! What use is it for Heaven Dou Empire to raise you all!"
All the generals and soldiers, hearing this, lowered their heads in shame.
"What caused that strange phenomenon earlier? Have you found out? Are you just thinking about these dirty matters?" Xue Beng spat, and his gaze finally landed on Li Yu face.
In the next moment, his scolding stopped abruptly. His eyes were fixed on Li Yu, unwilling to look away for even a moment.
The general, witnessing this, had a flash of contempt in his eyes. "This is the kind of person you are, yet you dare to call us useless?"
If His Highness the Crown Prince weren't present, they might have already pounced on him!
He still dares to say we are useless. If it weren't for us, could Heaven Dou Empire really be called Heaven Dou Empire?
Xue Qinghe, who was riding forward, looked at Xue Beng behavior and felt even more disdain in her heart. For the sake of the Martial Soul Hall's cause, she had disguised herself as Xue Qinghe for over ten years!
Now, the second and third princes of Heaven Dou Empire had already been removed.
This Fourth Prince, Xue Beng, was a complete waste!
His cultivation talent was so poor that words couldn't describe it. At his age, he was only at level forty-something soul power, and he was practically harmless.
Moreover, he was a playboy, obsessed with women, and could never become a great leader.
Therefore, she had already eliminated most of the obstacles to her succession to the throne of Heaven Dou Empire.
Now, only the final step remained—waiting for Emperor Xue Ye death and then ascending the throne!
Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Xue Qinghe eyes, but she quickly reined it in.
She then turned her gaze to Li Yu.
At this glance, she was momentarily stunned.
The woman before her was extremely beautiful, and there was a unique aura about her. Even she, at this moment, felt somewhat inferior.
But even though she was currently in Xue Qinghe form, she was still a woman.
Therefore, she quickly regained her composure.
"She is truly a beauty. No wonder Xue Beng, who has seen countless women, was drawn to her!" Qian Renxue thought to herself.
Then, she took a deep breath and spoke softly, "Miss, who are you, and why are you here? Do you know what caused the strange phenomenon earlier?"
Li Yu mind stirred as she heard this.
She then smiled lightly at Qian Renxue, "I am Li Yu, and I traveled here. With my soul power, I do not know what caused the strange phenomenon earlier!"
After a pause, she added, "I am not yet married."
As soon as she said this, a blush spread across her face, and she appeared extremely shy.
Everyone present was stunned, as if their souls were stolen away.
When Li Yu smiled, the charm enhanced by her divine power was fully unleashed, which was naturally irresistible.
Even Qian Renxue paused her breath.
She truly was a beauty!
Who asked about your marital status? Are you implying that I might marry you?
Qian Renxue cursed inwardly, then forced herself to suppress her strange feelings and reexamined Li Yu.
Earlier, she hadn't noticed. Now, under Li Yu own words, she realized that Li Yu soul power was only at level 21.
Thus, she dismissed any suspicion regarding Li Yu.
Additionally, the pressure she had felt earlier, even with her divine weapon, the Sacred Angel Martial Soul, made her shiver a little.
Therefore, she was especially cautious.
If this was the birth of another god-level martial soul, it would undoubtedly pose a great threat to the Sacred Angel lineage.
So, if she couldn't recruit her, she would have to eliminate the threat.
Li Yu soul power of level 21 meant that her martial soul must have already added soul rings, so it couldn't be a recent awakening.
Therefore, any suspicion in this regard was also dispelled.
Thinking of this, Qian Renxue relaxed completely.
Looking at the highly seductive Li Yu, she suddenly became interested.
"If Miss Li Yu is not yet married, you might want to consider my Fourth Brother!"
Qian Renxue pointed at Xue Beng, "My Fourth Brother is the Fourth Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire Royal Family. His status is noble and he is certainly worthy of you!"
To Qian Renxue, Xue Beng was no threat.
But if she could get him married off early and prevent any potential alliances, it would naturally reduce her threat.
And since it was only fanning the flames, she was more than happy to do it.
"Well said!"
At that moment, a solemn voice rang out.
Everyone snapped out of their stupor.
"Your Majesty!"
The generals and soldiers half-knelt on the ground, bowing their heads.
Qian Renxue and Xue Beng turned around and bowed, "Father, Your Majesty!"
Li Yu followed their gaze and looked ahead.
A luxurious carriage approached.
On it sat an elderly man in magnificent attire, wearing a crown. His face was dignified, though slightly weary, and he exuded an air of authority.
Beside him stood a figure clad in green armor, his hair graying but his energy still sharp, a presence that seemed to cut through the air.
It was Emperor Xue Ye, and the Poison Douluo!
Li Yu immediately recognized their identities.
She wasn't sure of Emperor Xue Ye characteristics, but the green armor of the Poison Douluo was unmistakable.
"What kind of wind is blowing today, bringing out these two big shots?" Li Yu muttered to herself, but with the elemental dissolution ability, she wasn't at all nervous.
However, on the outside, she respectfully greeted them.
"Your Majesty, how do you feel?"
Emperor Xue Ye spoke softly.
"It has nothing to do with her."
The Poison Douluo slightly shook his head. Although the woman before him was incredibly beautiful, her soul power level was evident, so the strange phenomenon couldn't have anything to do with her.
Emperor Xue Ye nodded and then turned his gaze to Qian Renxue and Xue Beng.
"Today, on the day of our Heaven Dou Empire autumn hunt, is a blessed day!"
As he spoke, his gaze shifted toward Li Yu.
When he saw her appearance, Emperor Xue Ye eyes flickered slightly.
But as an emperor, he had seen many beautiful women and wasn't as undone as Xue Beng had been. With the Poison Douluo by his side, he quickly stabilized his emotions.
"This young lady, since you are not yet married, no matter your background, the royal princes of Heaven Dou Empire are certainly a match for you! So..."
Emperor Xue Ye paused.
"I see that you have some affection for Qinghe. Would you be willing to marry him?"
