The Seventh Princesses stood rooted to the ground, hesitating for a moment!
Perhaps it was because Xu Que's charm was really high and his luck was off the charts, or perhaps it was because of his actions tonight and the poems that the Seventh Princesses had developed a favorable impression of him.
At this moment, she actually did something unprecedented. She stepped forward and followed Xu Que into the tavern!
If the princes or the people in the palace were to see this, they would definitely be dumbfounded on the spot!
The Seventh Princesses, who had always been reserved, gentle, and extremely intelligent, had actually entered the tavern? And with a young man that she had just met!
However, this scene was not seen by anyone. The Seventh Princesses entered the tavern, asked for a room, and drank with Xu Que!
After drinking a glass of wine, the Seventh Princesses calmed down. She looked at Xu Que and directly said, "Since Young Master Xu knows why I am here, can you tell me your real background?"
Xu Que smiled, raised his wine glass, and took a sip. Then he sighed and said, "My background is actually very simple, just like my character. It's just that you're overthinking it. That's all."
"Oh? If it's so simple, why did Young Master Xu change his name to Takumi Fujiwara at the Sword Catacomb today? "The Seventh Princesses asked.
"Because … My background is very ominous! From the moment I was born, I was a jinx! "Xu Que's face was deep and melancholy as he said slowly.
"Actually, my real name is Naruto Fujiwara. I was born in a village called Konoha Village. My parents were the strongest in the village. Later, a Demonic Beast invaded and killed countless villagers. My parents sacrificed their lives to seal the Demonic Beast in my body!"
"What?"
The Seventh Princesses was shocked. She could not help but cover her small mouth and looked at Xu Que in disbelief.
Although she had never heard of Konoha Village, nor had she heard that a demon beast could be sealed in a body, but when she saw Xu Que's melancholy and sad expression, she couldn't help but believe it.
Xu Que also continued to speak in a sad tone, "Later, I learned that the Monster Beast knew that our family's bloodline is special and that we have Sharingan, so it wanted to take it away, which led to this tragedy! Later, alone, dragging my weak body, I accidentally swallowed a Devil Fruit and boarded a ship. At that time, I vowed to become a Pirate King! "
"And then?"
The Seventh Princesses asked.
"Unfortunately, I got seasick and could only go ashore. I went to a place called Mount Akina and changed my name to Takumi Fujiwara. I threw away everything I had in the past and lived there incognito. I even opened a tofu shop and became the King of Mount Akina!" Xu Que sighed.
The Seventh Princesses also fell silent after hearing this.
Although Xu Que's experience was very bizarre, his tearful appearance was too convincing.
The Seventh Princesses did not think much of it and whispered, "I didn't expect Mr. Xu's life to be so rough! No wonder you can make such magical stinky tofu. You used to open a tofu shop! "
"You flatter me! You flatter me! All of this is just a fleeting moment. It's nothing now. I have changed my name to Xu Que, and I may change my name to Tony Oki soon. I will go to a magical island to make an AV blockbuster! "
"What is an AV blockbuster?" The Seventh Princesses was puzzled.
"It's a very fun kind of art. Don't worry, when the time comes, I will definitely invite you to be the female lead!" Xu Que said with a clear look.
The Seventh Princesses was confused and did not understand Xu Que's words at all. But she still nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Mr. Xu. If that day comes, I will definitely support you!"
"That's great, that's great! Come, cheers! "Xu Que smiled satisfactorily, raised his glass and toasted the Seventh Princesses!
After the two of them drank, the atmosphere gradually calmed down.
After a few breaths, the Seventh Princesses spoke again, "Actually, I have something to ask of Mr. Xu!"
"Princess, if there's anything you need, just say it. If I can help, even if I have to climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of flames, I will not hesitate!" Xu Que patted his chest and said righteously.
"Really?"
The Seventh Princesses's eyes suddenly lit up, and she was very happy.
Xu Que's heart immediately skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "Oh no!" Is he really going to climb a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of flames? Don't, I'm just joking. Don't take it so seriously, little sister!
However, as the Act Tough King, Xu Que would definitely not admit defeat.
Whatever it was, he would brag for a while. Anyway, getting drunk would solve all his worries. He could just forget about it tomorrow!
"Of course it's true. I, Xu Que, am a man of my words, and I always do what I say!"
Immediately, he patted his chest and made a solemn vow.
The Seventh Princesses immediately said happily, "Actually, I know that you have a very powerful divine chariot, and your ability to drive it is very good. In Metal Nation, it is definitely one of the best. Therefore, I would like to ask for your help. In the Imperial Tombs Contest two days later, I hope that you can represent my Third Brother and participate in the first round of assessment, and win the right to enter the Imperial Tombs! "
"Ah? That's it? "
Xu Que was stunned. He had thought that it was something big, but it turned out to be for the Imperial Tombs Contest.
But it was indeed very simple. After all, he was here to rob the Imperial Tombs, so he could take the opportunity to go in and cause trouble!
"Mr. Xu, you can't underestimate the Imperial Tombs Contest this time. It concerns the future of Metal Nation, and the future Crown Prince position!" the Seventh Princesses said very seriously and seriously.
"How is the Imperial Tombs Contest related to the future of Metal Nation?"
Xu Que was puzzled again and was a little confused.
It was just a Contest, how could it make Metal Nation so arrogant? This was not logical!
"Actually, there's no harm in telling me, this is not a secret anymore! My father, the Emperor, and a group of masters from Spirit Treasures Pavilion and God Treasures Pavilion, worked together to create a magical weapon that can generate more metal element spiritual Qi, allowing hundreds of generations of cultivators to practice. Unfortunately, to use this magical weapon, it needs a lot of metal element spiritual Qi, so my father wants to dig out the Dragon Veins! "
"Dig out the Dragon Veins to provide metal element spiritual Qi to the magical weapon? What the heck! They're playing so big? Making such a big move? They're not even going to let go of their own country's Dragon Veins! "Xu Que was a little surprised.
Previously, in the Fire Empire, the Fire Emperor had valued the Dragon Veins so much because the Dragon Veins were related to the fate of the Ji Family's imperial power. Hence, he had protected it very well, and even the Imperial Qi had not been squandered.
But this Metal Nation had done the opposite and actually wanted to dig out the Dragon Veins. This idea was too ridiculous!
"Actually, we also know that the Dragon Veins are related to the fate of the nation. But my father firmly believes that as long as the nation's strength increases, the nation's strength will naturally increase. There is no need to rely on the fate of the nation to maintain the existence of the Metal Nation. Such a huge amount of metal element spiritual Qi should not be hidden deep underground, but should be extracted and used reasonably. It should be developed into a real resource to strengthen the national strength of the Metal Nation! "
"Hiss!"
After hearing this, Xu Que couldn't help but gasp. His eyes widened and he clicked his tongue in surprise.
Then he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and exclaim sincerely, "You're really … awesome, your father!"
