187 Following The Ninth Prince!
As the event progressed, Xue Nanxi's attention remained at the Ninth Prince's gallery.
Her mind went through multiple ideas on how to touch him and test his identity.
It was after an hour that she noticed the Ninth Prince leaving his gallery, flying out of the arena.
She decided that it was her chance to approach him while he was alone.
She quickly bid her farewell to the princess: "Your Highness, There is an urgent matter I have to attend to. Allow me to leave."
The princess was already impressed by her previous actions of supporting her, hence she nodded readily, agreeing to her request before continuing her conversation with the head of the Talisman society.
Xue Nanxi rushed after the Ninth prince, however, noticing that she couldn't fly, she clapped.
A king realm cultivator, her guard, appeared in front of her in an instant.
"Help me follow the ninth Prince." She quickly ordered.
The guard nodded without hesitation, making her float behind him as he quickly moved in the direction where the ninth prince went.
After flying for a while, the ninth prince came into view, standing beside a man clad in dark robes. He was having some conversation with him.
The area was an open field with huge rocks and boulders lying there.
To hide, they both hid behind one of these rocks, peeking at the ninth prince.
They couldn't hear what the conversation was about from this far.
"It appears he is using a sound barrier." The guard informed.
Since he was a King realm cultivator, his senses were heightened and he could hear sounds from this distance if he focused, however, right now, even a little whisper was difficult to hear.
This was only possible if they were using a sound barrier.
"Hmm... You are correct, my princess. That is indeed a bit peculiar. Could it be his luck that the direction he guessed in which we could be hiding turned out to be true?" The Guard pondered in doubt.
"Then should we reveal ourselves or not?" Xue Nanxi was panicking.
The Ninth Prince could reach them at any moment now.
However, before the guard could answer, a powerful presence appeared behind them.
The guard's eyes widened, however, before he could react, he was knocked unconscious by a strike to his back.
Nanxi looked at the scene with wide eyes in disbelief.
She turned and noticed that the powerful presence was coming from an old, lean man with a long white beard adorned in Shang Clan's clothes.
He was an emperor realm cultivator.
At this moment, the ninth prince flew up to the old man and bowed respectfully: "Thank you, grandfather Tianzhen."
The old man laughed, stroking his beard: "No need, no need. It was my duty as your protector, young lord."
"Grandfather Tianzhen, Please take this unconscious guard back to the event. I have some questions to ask the young lady here" The ninth prince requested with a smile.
"As you wish, young lord. I suppose there is no danger around anymore" The first elder said before leaving with the unconscious guard floating behind him.
The ninth prince turned to Nanxi and asked with a smile: "So, tell me, who are you and why did you follow me?"
He didn't recognize her since this was the first time he saw her.
Of course, her dress had the Xue clan's insignia, indicating that she was from the Xue clan. Moreover, she had a king realm cultivator as her guard, meaning that she held a significant position in the clan.
Nanxi calmed herself and answered: "I'm the youngest princess of the Xue Clan, Xue Nanxi! It is an honor to finally meet you, your highness."
