Chapter 93: Almost Recognized.
The time for the banquet was almost here. At Luo Chuxue’s request, Su Lingxi reluctantly changed into a beautiful dress.
“This is your first time meeting Father Emperor. Of course, you have to dress nicely.”
Luo Chuxue fastened the last button for Su Lingxi, and her outfit was finally ready.
Su Lingxi felt a little unnatural in this dress.
In fact, besides upgrading her disguise technique in the past two days, she had also spent a few points to secretly change her stats.
With these small changes, it wouldn’t matter even if the disguise technique failed and she returned to her female form.
Because of the changes, no one would think that she was the Su Lingxi of the Demon Realm.
But the problem now was very serious. The clothes that used to fit her no longer did.
“Hey, Little Lingxi, you’re so big, yet you’re still developing.”
Luo Chuxue secretly glanced at Su Lingxi’s chest and couldn’t help but ask.
Su Lingxi was a little embarrassed by the question.
“I don’t know either. Don’t worry about it. Let’s go and eat!”
Although the clothes were a little uncomfortable, Su Lingxi could bear it!
The head eunuch was already waiting outside the princess’s hall. Seeing that Su Lingxi was ready, Luo Chuxue also led her out.
Watching the head eunuch lead the way, Su Lingxi was a little nervous. She whispered to Luo Chuxue.
“Chuxue, is your Father Emperor very fierce?”
Luo Chuxue smiled and shook her head. “No. Father Emperor is just a little serious sometimes, but he’s very nice in private.”
“Then who is more powerful, him or our master?”
Su Lingxi was a little curious.
Luo Chuxue thought for a moment. “Mm… Master and Father Emperor are both Mahayana realm experts. I don’t know who is more powerful.”
“They should be about the same. Father Emperor hasn’t fought in a long time. The last time he fought was during the Demon Realm’s invasion.”
“Only in a battle of that level would Father Emperor fight.”
Su Lingxi’s heart skipped a beat. If the Canglan Emperor had participated in the war between the Demon Realm and the Mortal Realm, then he might have seen the Female Demon Lord of the Demon Realm back then.
It’s over… he won’t recognize me, will he…
Is it still too late to run?
While Su Lingxi was still thinking about what to do, the head eunuch had already led the two of them into an even larger palace.
“His Majesty is inside. This old servant will not go in.”
“Please, Princess and distinguished guest, attend the banquet.”
The head eunuch lowered his head deeply. Just as Su Lingxi and Luo Chuxue were about to enter the hall, Luo Yunxuan came up to them.
Luo Yunxuan: “You’re here. Father Emperor is inside. Su Lingxi, don’t be rude later.”
Luo Chuxue had taught her for a while before, so she didn’t have to worry too much.
Luo Chuxue gently pulled Su Lingxi’s sleeve, and the three of them slowly walked into the palace.
Su Lingxi lowered her head, trying not to let anyone see her face clearly.
The candlelight in the palace flickered. The Canglan Emperor sat on the main seat, majestic and calm.
“Your son and daughter pay their respects to Father Emperor,” Luo Chuxue bowed gracefully.
Su Lingxi also hurriedly followed suit. The Canglan Emperor’s gaze swept over them and lingered on Su Lingxi for a moment. Su Lingxi’s heart was in her throat.
“Get up,” the Canglan Emperor’s voice was low and deep.
The Canglan Emperor’s expression was calm, but his gaze was fixed on Su Lingxi. A terrifying woman suddenly flashed in his mind.
That woman had a bewitching figure and a soul-stirring face. She could destroy a city with just a flick of her finger.
And her three disciples were known as the Three Demonesses.
That woman was also called Su Lingxi.
The Canglan Emperor’s breathing became rapid, and a terrifying pressure pressed down on Su Lingxi.
Su Lingxi only felt a thousand-jin weight on her body. Her legs knelt on the ground uncontrollably, and her expression was pained.
“Father Emperor? What are you…”
Luo Chuxue’s light call brought the Canglan Emperor’s consciousness back. The Canglan Emperor retracted his palm and breathed a sigh of relief.
This girl had no demonic energy in her body, only ice and water elemental power, and her strength was even lower.
Besides, that Female Demon Lord had already been destroyed by Sheng Tianyu, and even her power had been sealed.
It seemed that he was really old and had been traumatized by the Female Demon Lord back then.
“Hehe, it’s nothing. I heard that the Snowfall Sect has a new personal disciple. I was just testing her.”
“Jiang Xianyue has good taste. It seems her aptitude is acceptable!”
A gentle spiritual force lifted Su Lingxi up.
Su Lingxi was almost scared to death. She had definitely aroused the Canglan Emperor’s suspicion just now, even if it was just for a moment.
It seemed that she couldn’t stay in this Canglan imperial family for long.
But the Canglan Emperor had clearly found an excuse for himself, so he let Su Lingxi off.
“Take a seat!”
The Canglan Emperor was the first to sit on the main seat, with Luo Yunxuan and Luo Chuxue sitting on either side.
As his voice fell, the maids who had been prepared outside the door brought in a variety of special dishes.
Su Lingxi carefully sat down, trying to lower her presence as much as possible.
But the Canglan Emperor was very interested in her. His gaze towards Su Lingxi was as if he had already decided that she was his daughter-in-law.
“Su Lingxi, what is your background?” the Canglan Emperor asked.
Su Lingxi took out the prepared answer and replied, “Reporting to Your Majesty, Lingxi was born in a remote village in the Canglan Nation. Your Majesty has probably never heard of this place.”
Su Lingxi’s words were the same as what she had told Luo Chuxue.
The Canglan Emperor did not ask about Su Lingxi’s specific background in detail. He smiled faintly. “The Canglan Nation is vast and has countless talents.”
“You were able to enter the Snowfall Sect and become a personal disciple without relying on your background. It can be seen that you are extraordinary.”
“The Canglan imperial family has never valued background. As long as you have enough talent and work hard, I will give these talents a good background.”
At this, the Canglan Emperor changed the subject. “Su Lingxi, are you willing to join my Canglan imperial family?”
“Ah, this…”
Su Lingxi’s hand movements immediately stopped. She didn’t know why the Canglan Emperor had said that.
Luo Chuxue and Luo Yunxuan also hadn’t expected their Father Emperor to ask such a question.
But wasn’t Su Lingxi a member of the Snowfall Sect?
After a brief thought, Su Lingxi still answered truthfully, “Reporting to Your Majesty, Lingxi has already become a disciple of Master Jiang Xianyue. It would be inappropriate to join the Canglan imperial family.”
“And even if Lingxi is willing, I still have to consider Master’s feelings.”
Hearing Su Lingxi’s words, the Canglan Emperor suddenly smiled with some relief. “You’re right. It was I who was too eager for talent. Poaching is not something I can do.”
“But I’m also giving you another choice. If one day you can no longer stay in the Snowfall Sect, you can join the Canglan imperial family at any time.”
“The Canglan imperial family is willing to be your biggest backer.”
Hearing the Canglan Emperor’s words, Su Lingxi understood that he valued her.
So she also immediately expressed her gratitude.
