In Ji Tianxing's eyes, the Second Guardian was a mysterious and unreasonable weird old woman.
But when she talked about the Crown Prince of the Thousand Snow Empire, Lu Li, her tone and eyes were much gentler, revealing some kindness.
Ji Tianxing immediately realized that in the Second Guardian's eyes, only a diligent and inquisitive young man like Lu Li, who focused on reading books, was a genius with both integrity and talent.
And someone like him, who had been in the Divine Book Pavilion for more than a month and only knew how to read history books and biographies, was a piece of rotten wood that could not be carved!
Ji Tianxing was well aware of this point, but he did not bother to argue about it.
That Crown Prince of the Thousand Snow Empire, Lu Li, had nothing to do with him, so he did not care.
After a while, the Second Guardian slowly walked away. Ji Tianxing also returned to the secret chamber and continued to cultivate.
Staying in the Divine Book Pavilion, the days were boring and dull.
But he had long been used to it. Instead, he felt very comfortable and at ease, which was more convenient for him to cultivate and comprehend swordsmanship.
However, the peaceful days were only three days old when they were interrupted.
In the evening, Ji Tianxing was cultivating in the secret chamber.
Suddenly, the Second Guardian's deep voice came from outside the door, "Ji Tianxing, come out quickly. I have something to tell you."
Ji Tianxing was interrupted. He could not help but frown. He got up slowly and walked out of the secret chamber.
The Second Guardian was standing outside the door. Seeing him come out, the Second Guardian said expressionlessly, "For the next few days, you don't have to stay in the Divine Book Pavilion. Go to the Hall of Tranquility and wait for orders."
Hearing this, Ji Tianxing was stunned. He frowned and asked, "Hall of Tranquility? Isn't that where the Crown Prince of the Thousand Snow Empire lives temporarily? "
"Yes." The Second Guardian nodded and said indifferently, "After you go to the Hall of Tranquility, you must obey orders and serve the Crown Prince of the Thousand Snow Empire."
"Let me serve Lu Li?" Ji Tianxing frowned. He stared at the Second Guardian and asked, "Second Guardian, is this your arrangement?"
Ever since Lu Li's procession of honor arrived at the Mountain of Investiture, he had been staying in the Clear Heaven Pagoda.
Now, Second Guardian suddenly told him to serve Lu Li at the Hall of Tranquility!
No matter how one looked at it, it seemed to be the Second Guardian's decision. After all, she valued Lu Li.
However, Ji Tianxing was dissatisfied and secretly thought: "Not to mention the Crown Prince of the Thousand Snow Empire, even the Holy Emperor of the Thousand Snow Empire is not qualified for me to serve! Are you treating me like a servant? "
The Second Protector glanced at him as if he had seen through his thoughts. He explained in a cold tone, "I'm just informing you. This is not my intention.
This is the decision of the Grand Guardian. I heard that Lu Li is interested in you after hearing about your story. That is why he begged the Grand Guardian to let you go to the Hall of Tranquility. "
"It's the Great Guardian again!" This thought flashed through Ji Tianxing's mind. He wondered to himself, "This Lu Li, I don't think he is just curious about me. He must have some other purpose."
While Lu Li was thinking, the Second Guardian had turned around and left. He said in a dignified voice, "You are now a criminal. Don't even think about disobeying the orders of the Grand Guardian. Otherwise, you will be punished even more.
Go to the Hall of Tranquility now! If you are smart enough and can make Lu Li happy, maybe he can put in a good word for you in front of the Grand Guardian. "
With that said, the Second Guardian disappeared into the darkness and left quietly.
Ji Tianxing curled his lips and sneered to himself, "Hmm, he is just a Crown Prince of an empire. How arrogant he is!
I'd like to see what medicine is hidden in this guy's gourd and what he wants to do! "
Then, he left the Divine Book Pavilion and walked out of the Clear Heaven Pagoda.
The sky was getting dark. Night was about to fall.
The entire peak of the Mountain of Investiture was shrouded in darkness.
Many of the palaces were lit with lights. It was very quiet.
Only the Hall of Tranquility was not only brightly lit, but there were also more than 200 people living in the palace. The sound of people and music could be heard constantly.
Ji Tianxing walked across the square unhurriedly and walked to the gate of the Hall of Tranquility.
Besides several golden-armored Imperial Bodyguards guarding the gate of the palace, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a blue robe and a crown on his head.
This person's attire was like a steward of the palace. He also looked like a deacon who was in charge of internal affairs.
Seeing Ji Tianxing arrive, the blue-robed man waved at him and said with a kind expression, "May I ask if you are Young Master Ji Tianxing?"
Ji Tianxing saw that his attitude was somewhat respectful. He couldn't help but be puzzled. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "You are?"
The blue-robed man smiled and cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "Greetings, Young Master Ji. My surname is Fang. I am Crown Prince Qianxue's supervisor of internal affairs. I followed His Highness to the Mountain of Investiture to manage internal affairs for His Highness."
Ji Tianxing nodded at him as a greeting.
Supervisor Fang was quite astute. He could see that Ji Tianxing's personality was cold and he didn't want to talk too much. He hurriedly extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
"Young Master Ji, this is not the place to talk. Please follow me into the palace to see His Highness the Crown Prince."
Ji Tianxing glanced at him and didn't say anything. He silently followed behind him and entered the Hall of Tranquility.
Not long after, the two of them entered the magnificent guest hall.
A handsome young man in an embroidered robe and a golden crown of dragon and phoenix sat on the large jade chair at the head of the table.
This person was tall and handsome. His temperament was elegant and he didn't lose his masculinity. He was really a handsome young master of a noble family.
He was sitting on the chair and holding an ancient scroll. He was engrossed in reading. There was a thoughtful expression between his eyebrows.
Two young and beautiful maids dressed in long, thin dresses were nestled by his feet, gently massaging his legs.
Seeing this scene, Ji Tianxing guessed that this person must be the Crown Prince of the Thousand Snow Empire, Lu Li.
Sure enough, Supervisor Fang walked in front of Lu Li and bowed. He reported, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, Young Master Ji has been invited."
Lu Li quickly raised his head and put down the ancient scroll in his hand. He looked at Ji Tianxing with a face full of joy.
The two guards were very tactful. After bowing to him, they silently took their leave.
Lu Li stood up and walked towards Ji Tianxing. With a smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "This must be Young Master Ji Tianxing, right? I am Lu Li. I have been looking forward to meeting Young Master Ji for a long time! "
Although Ji Tianxing saw that Lu Li was so polite, he guessed that this person must have other intentions.
However, as the saying goes, one doesn't slap a smiling face.
Since the other party was so polite, he nodded calmly and greeted him.
"Crown Prince Lu is too polite."
The two exchanged some pleasantries and sat down.
Supervisor Fang brought a cup of spirit tea for Ji Tianxing and silently stood next to Lu Li.
Ji Tianxing didn't beat around the bush with Lu Li. He asked directly, "Crown Prince Lu, I don't know you and we have nothing to do with each other.
