The Golden Dragon Emperor's status and seniority were high, and he felt guilty because of Tai Mo Wang's rebellion.
If Ji Tianxing had asked him for information, he wouldn't have been able to refuse.
But Taiyi had other plans. He'd asked him to entertain Ji Tianxing, which solved the Golden Dragon Emperor's dilemma.
Moreover, he and Ji Tianxing were both imperial princes of the Imperial Residence. They were no strangers, so it was reasonable for him to answer Ji Tianxing's questions.
The Golden Dragon Emperor agreed without hesitation, so Xiao Han couldn't say anything.
Thus, the Golden Dragon Emperor led Xiao Han out of the meeting hall and into a secret room to discuss compensation.
Only Ji Tianxing and Taiyi were left in the hall. The room immediately quieted down.
Taiyi looked at Ji Tianxing expressionlessly. "Ji Tianxing, I didn't think we'd meet again."
Ji Tianxing replied indifferently, "That's right. I'm surprised as well."
His relationship with Taiyi couldn't be considered friendly, but it wasn't to the point of falling out.
Ji Tianxing didn't have any feelings for him, but he seemed to be dissatisfied with Ji Tianxing.
"Do you want to talk in this hall? Or do you want to come to my chambers? "Taiyi asked calmly, raising an eyebrow.
Ji Tianxing shook his head. "No need. Let's talk here."
"That's fine too." Tai Yi nodded and asked with a faint smile, "Then tell me, what do you want to know?"
Ji Tianxing didn't beat around the bush with him and asked directly, "Have you heard of the Boundless Stone?"
"Boundless Stone? What's that? Is it a gem material? "Tai Yi frowned. His face was full of confusion as he asked.
Seeing his reaction, Ji Tianxing rolled his eyes and said expressionlessly, "Since you've never heard of it, then pretend I didn't say anything."
After saying that, he turned around to leave the hall.
Taiyi hurriedly shouted, "Ji Tianxing, please wait!"
Ji Tianxing stopped and turned to look at him. "What's wrong? What else do you want? "
Taiyi smiled and said slowly, "You and I are both princes, and we are from the same sect. You have come all the way to the Eastern Sea, so of course I have to treat you well.
If I let you leave like this, wouldn't others laugh at me for not knowing etiquette? "
Ji Tianxing raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"
Taiyi waved his wide sleeves and said with a smile, "Since you're here, why don't you stay for a few days?
Although I can't remember any information about the Boundless Stone for the time being.
However, this Jun will help you investigate clearly. "
Hearing his words, Ji Tianxing pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement.
He had no choice, as the Boundless Stone was too important to him.
Even if he didn't have a good relationship with Taiyi, as long as Taiyi was willing to help him investigate, he would wait patiently.
"Young Master Ji, please follow this Jun." Taiyi extended his hand and made a 'please' gesture. He led him out of the hall and into the depths of the Imperial Court.
Half an hour later, the two passed through layers of corridors and several ice crystal palaces. They entered an elegant courtyard surrounded by clear water.
"Young Master Ji, this is the Jadewave Courtyard. You can stay here for the next few days."
Taiyi walked into the Jadewave Courtyard and introduced him. "This Jun has arranged more than twenty guards and maids for you. Those maids are all beautiful mermaids of the mermaid race. If you're lonely, you can enjoy them to your heart's content."
Then, he clapped his hands.
The few doors around the courtyard were opened, and immediately, twelve beautiful mermaids walked out of them.
These mermaids all had human bodies, but below their waists was a fish tail with red scales.
They had golden hair and azure eyes. Their skin was as soft as milk and as smooth as jade. All of them were pure and beautiful.
The twelve mermaids stood in the courtyard and bowed respectfully to Taiyi. "Greetings, Your Highness!"
Taiyi pointed at Ji Tianxing and ordered expressionlessly, "This is this Jun's friend, Imperial Prince Ji Tianxing. You must serve him well, no matter what request he has …"
Before he could finish, Ji Tianxing frowned and waved his hand. "Taiyi, there's no need. Tell them to leave!"
Taiyi frowned and asked with a faint smile, "What's wrong? Young Master Ji is not satisfied? Do you think these mermaids are not beautiful enough?
Haha, this Jun knows very well that the rich and powerful families of Central State are all obsessed with mermaids. Many people would spend all their wealth just to get close to them … "
Ji Tianxing frowned again and said with a serious expression, "Taiyi, are you insulting me? You know I'm married. Yun Yao is my wife! "
Taiyi saw that he was angry and showed signs of flaring up, so he quickly apologized with a smile. "I'm sorry, Young Master Ji. Please don't be angry. This Jun didn't mean to offend you.
Since you don't like them, this Jun will tell them to leave. "
With that, he waved his hand and ordered the twelve mermaids to leave.
Then, he took out a treasure box from his Space Ring and handed it to Ji Tianxing.
"Young Master Ji, today is your first time in our Imperial Court. This Jun should give you a gift as a souvenir …"
Seeing that Ji Tianxing was about to wave his hand to reject the gift, he added, "Young Master Ji, don't reject it yet. This is the Aquatics' etiquette. The gift isn't too expensive, so please accept it."
Ji Tianxing frowned and thought to himself, "Taiyi has always been dissatisfied with me. Why is he suddenly so enthusiastic? Not only is he giving me beauties, but he also wants to give me a gift?"
As he thought, he took the treasure box. When he opened it, he saw that there were two gemstones the size of dates.
One was an ice-blue gemstone. It was the precious Ice Heart Jade Pill.
The other was a dark gold gemstone. It was the priceless Gold Essence Pearl.
These two gemstones could be used to forge Soul-grade magic treasures. They were worth at least two million spirit stones. It was definitely a great fortune.
Any other Soul Refinement Realm cultivator would be tempted by it.
However, Ji Tianxing closed the treasure box and returned it to Taiyi.
"Taiyi, you have the Water Tribe's rules. I also have the Human Tribe's principles.
As the saying goes, one should not accept a reward without any effort. I will not accept your gift for no reason. Please take it back.
Also, I don't mind telling you that I only want the Boundless Stone. I don't care about any other treasures. "
Taiyi was stunned for a moment. Then, he silently took back the treasure box and put it into his Space Ring.
He stared at Ji Tianxing. A strange look flashed through his eyes. He asked in a low voice, "Young Master Ji, can you tell this Jun, what do you want the Boundless Stone for?"
Ji Tianxing said calmly, "To save someone."
Taiyi did not think much of it. He subconsciously shook his head and said, "That's impossible! How can the Boundless Stone have such an effect? "
