No one dared to complain about the Shenluo Divine Prince's actions. After all, the Shenluo Divine Prince was very powerful, and his backing was even more shocking. If they offended him, they would definitely not be able to live.
Soon, the hundreds of Martial Cultivators were searched, but they didn't find any Great Desolate-Grade Warrior Bracelet.
The purple-robed Shenluo Divine Prince glanced at the crowd. He was not angry, and only smiled. "However, everyone is very cooperative, which shows how much respect you have for me. I don't think you would do something like stealing the Warrior Bracelet."
It seemed that this kid was quite satisfied with the crowd's reaction.
Long Yu hid at the side, feeling a little confused. Could it be that the Shenluo Divine Prince did this just to test his prestige?
That didn't make sense …
"Miss Ruoshui, I'm really sorry. I wanted to give you the Great Desolate-Level Warrior Bracelet, and I don't have anything else with me at the moment … Why don't you follow me back to the Shenluo Empire? There are countless treasures for you to choose from. How about that?"
The Shenluo Divine Prince turned to look at King Ruoshui and said with a passionate expression.
King Ruoshui obviously expected him to make such a request. She only smiled and shook her head. "Thank you for your kind intentions, Shenluo Divine Prince, but I have friends and family here, so it's not convenient for me to leave …"
"Then, Miss Ruoshui, why don't you join us for the auction of the Icy Lotus Fruit? It can be considered a welcome gift for us to come to the North Snow Empire. How about that?"
The white-robed man smiled. He was the Clouds Divine Prince of the Clouds Empire. He had a delicate appearance, and one could tell from his eyes that he was more reserved than the purple-robed Shenluo Divine Prince and the golden-robed Wuque Divine Prince. However, one could still tell that he liked King Ruoshui.
Indeed, King Ruoshui's appearance and figure were flawless to any man. Even the Shenluo Divine Prince from the Shenluo Empire was infatuated with her, and hoped to bring her back to the empire to be his woman.
Originally, with their forces, it would be easy for them to get a woman. However, it was a pity that all three Divine Princes wanted King Ruoshui to be their woman, so it became a competition.
Under such competition, none of the Imperial Princes could use force. Otherwise, the other two Imperial Princes would definitely stop them. Since that was the case, they could only rely on their own methods to conquer Ruo Shui's heart.
In the eyes of the Divine Sieve Crown Prince, as long as he showed his power and authority, he would be able to obtain the title easily. Moreover, his overall strength was indeed stronger than Crown Prince Wuque and Crown Prince Yun Yun.
The body search just now was the first step of the Divine Luo Crown Prince's demonstration!
The so-called loss of the bracelet was a complete fabrication. He just wanted Ruoshui King to know what kind of authority he had as the Divine Sieve Prince.
It would be best if a blind fellow ran out and objected to the body search. Then, he would be able to use this as a pretext to make a fuss. Unfortunately, everyone present was very obedient, so he didn't know where to start.
However, this didn't affect the Divine Sieve Crown Prince's display of power. Everyone obediently allowed themselves to be searched, which showed his authority.
"That's not a problem."
The Ruoshui King had no choice but to agree to Prince Cloudcloud's request and follow them to the auction of the Icy Lotus Fruit.
However, today's matter wasn't over yet.
At this moment, the gazes of the three disciples landed on a young girl in a short black skirt. Their eyes were filled with displeasure.
This young girl was Shu Chan!
Shu Chan noticed that the gazes of the three Imperial Princes were focused on her, and their expressions weren't friendly at all. She couldn't help but wonder what was going on. Could it be that Long Yu had taken away her Spatial Combat Weapon and was discovered by the three of them?
This wasn't good!
However, Shu Chan soon realized that the other party didn't notice this. The reason they were paying attention to her was because she had consumed the Icy Lotus Fruit!
"I've felt this bone-chilling aura from my brother before. It's the aura of the Icy Lotus Fruit."
The Divine Luo Crown Prince said faintly, "This is also one of the main reasons why I asked everyone to come out today. I felt the aura of the Icy Lotus Fruit in the courtyard, but I couldn't confirm who it was. I can only ask everyone to come out. I'm really sorry."
Although he said he was sorry, his expression didn't show the slightest hint of apology.
His display of power just now was just a casual action he had done for fun. But now, he was very serious about targeting Shu Chan. There was only one reason — Shu Chan had consumed the Icy Lotus Fruit!
"Before I came here, I heard that there was only one Icy Lotus Fruit left in the North Snow Empire for sale. You should know that there were only three left in the past years. I was wondering why there were so few this year. It turns out that someone else had eaten it."
Prince Wu Que squinted his eyes and sized up Shu Chan carefully. He immediately pinned her with the crime of 'eating it'!
Long Yu was hiding at the side. When he heard Prince Wu Que's words, his heart skipped a beat. It seemed like these three princes wanted to cause trouble for Shu Chan!
If it wasn't for the fact that Long Yu didn't choose to consume the Icy Lotus Fruit, he would have become a thorn in their side. But even if it was only Shu Chan who was targeted, Long Yu couldn't just ignore it.
"Yu Hanxin told me that the North Snow Empire produces five Icy Lotus Fruits every year …"
Long Yu squinted his eyes and thought about what Yu Hanxin had said. Three of the fruits this year were given to him, Shu Chan, and Mo Zhaitian. It could be considered that the North Snow Emperor had repaid the first Asura Duke's favor.
Although Long Yu didn't want the Icy Lotus Fruit, it was still taken away by Yu Hanxin. As for what she took it for, Long Yu had no way of knowing. It had nothing to do with him.
Logically speaking, there should be two more fruits that could be taken out for auction. Prince Wu Que said that there was only one left this year. Could it be that the North Snow Emperor had also gotten rid of the other one?
In the past, there were five fruits produced, and three were auctioned. Two of them must have been arranged by the North Snow Emperor. This year, it was given to Shu Chan, so there was less.
This made the Divine Luo Crown Prince and the others very unhappy.
Everyone knew that rare things were more valuable. There was only one Icy Lotus Fruit left in the auction. It was obvious that they would have to pay a huge price to get it!
Even the three princes didn't have the confidence to win this auction. Even if they won, it would be a pyrrhic victory. They would have to spend a lot more than usual.
This made the three princes very unhappy.
Therefore, when they felt the aura of the Icy Lotus Fruit on Shu Chan, they jointly conducted a body search and successfully found Shu Chan!
The Icy Lotus Fruit had already been consumed. Of course, they couldn't do anything to Shu Chan. However, they could still find some information from Shu Chan.
Queen Ruo Shui immediately became nervous and stood beside Shu Chan. At this moment, she felt a little guilty. If she hadn't acted on her own and arranged for Shu Chan and Long Yu to stay in this courtyard, she definitely wouldn't have encountered such a thing.
Shu Chan's expression was very natural. She wasn't too nervous.
"Princes, this Icy Lotus Fruit was personally bestowed by the North Snow Emperor. My ancestor is an old friend of the North Snow Emperor."
Shu Chan said straightforwardly, "May I know why the three princes asked me to stay?"
She was very clear that in front of the three princes, her identity as the Asura County Lord was not enough. Not to mention that she was no longer the Asura County Lord. Even the Asura Prefecture no longer existed.
Although she looked calm on the surface, she was still a little nervous. After all, she was facing the princes of the empire who were much stronger than her!
The Shenluo Prince wanted to ask her where the Icy Lotus Fruit came from, but he didn't expect that Shu Chan had already confessed herself. She even refuted Prince Wuque's accusation of 'eating it'!
The Shenluo Prince was speechless. The white-robed Prince Yunduan smiled. "Young lady, what's your name? Don't be afraid. We don't have any ill intentions. We just want to know some things about the Icy Lotus Fruit. "
"I'm Shu Chan."
Shu Chan didn't hide anything. She answered directly, "Ask away. As long as I know, I will tell you. However, I don't know much about the Icy Lotus Fruit."
"The Icy Lotus Fruit is the most precious treasure in the world. Once consumed, there is a certain chance that one will be compatible with the ice-attribute divine text. It is equivalent to a martial cultivator becoming compatible with two attributes, or even three … The North Snow Empire only auctions three of such treasures every year. Even this year, there is only one. It is really too little."
The golden-robed Prince Wuque stared at Shu Chan's eyes. "However, under such circumstances, the North Snow Emperor still used the Icy Lotus Fruit to repay a favor. This is really ridiculous. If it were me, why would I use such a precious Icy Lotus Fruit to repay a favor? Any random desolate-level weapon would be enough … Miss Shu Chan, am I right?"
"This is the North Snow Emperor's decision. I have no way of influencing his thoughts."
Shu Chan shook her head and pushed the blame onto the North Snow Emperor.
"You are right."
The white-robed Prince Yunduan's voice was the softest. He looked at Shu Chan and smiled gently. "Miss Shu Chan, this has nothing to do with you. However, since you have consumed the Icy Lotus Fruit, you won't be able to digest it in a short period of time. It is very easy for others to sense the aura of the Icy Lotus Fruit from your body. Right now, the auction of the Icy Lotus Fruit is about to begin. If you don't want to cause trouble, you better think of a way."
"Yunduan, what are you saying? Could it be that you have taken a fancy to this little girl and want her to follow you?"
The Shenluo Prince said disdainfully.
"Since you said so, I will admit it."
Prince Yunduan wasn't angry. He smiled and said, "This little girl looks quite cute to me. I quite like her. Since she has consumed the Icy Lotus Fruit, she should be compatible with the two-attribute divine text. Her future achievements will definitely not be low."
