Chapter 3406: The Prince Presents a Gift
th, muttering to himself, "Is there really immortals and demons in this world"The charms of Fairy Su Mei瑤 softly snorted, "Of course! Don't think that the True Martial Realm is where martial arts are...Chapter 3406: The Crown Prince's Gift
Shen Xiang knew that the struggle for power within the Snow Cloud Empire had already begun when he heard what the prince said. Otherwise, the prince wouldn't have tried to align himself with Shen Xiang's strength so early in order to counteract a stronger force.
As a prince, but not necessarily the emperor, aiming to solidify his strength.
"We can't let them enter Azure Frost City, they might disrupt Night LoneWolf's plan," Shen Xiang said to Bai Yoyo. "What do you think, Yoyo Sister What should we do"
"Intercept them! Night Lone Wolf definitely wouldn't have expected the Crown Prince to send resources... Now, we don't know how many people the Crown Prince has brought," said White Pale.
Sentinel Shen quietly approached the water. Although the water was calm, he was cautiously concerned that something might suddenly emerge from it, such as a colossal aquatic creature like the ancient wolffish crocodile.
"I'll give it a try first!" Shen Xiang released the explosive incantation, causing the water's surface to rise and fall rapidly. Waves formed, each wave crashing towards the giant turtle as the shockwave surged.
The giant turtle's swimming speed was still quite fast, but after being shaken by Shen Xiang's shock wave attack, it found it hard to move forward, continuously retreating.
"What's going on How did it suddenly change like this" The Duke of Qi's mansion was unstable, swaying back and forth, making him very uncomfortable inside.
Shen Xiang, to dispel the suspicions of those people, immediately cast a spell that unleashed a raging wind. An intense hurricane instantly arose and blew fiercely towards the giant turtle, causing it to retreat backwards.
"It's the storm!" said the middle-aged man, "The storm in Azure Snow City is happening too suddenly, isn't it!"
Scheming in his heart, if there's a snowstorm here, he would create one.
He also had frost incantations, which he quickly unleashed. Combined with a strong wind, it created a blizzard.
"Not enough, let's add a bit of lightning for you guys... hmm, blue lightning," Shen Xiang was now certain that this prince and his people had never been to Azure Snow City, so they were unfamiliar with the real Azure Snow Blizzard.
The snowstorm, accompanied by streaks of blue lightning, left the prince feeling helpless. At this moment, he could only let the turtle be carried away by the waves and the fierce wind. They believed that they were at the edge of the storm, so they dared not advance, fearing that the center might be even more violent.
Sneering inside, Shen Xiang couldn't help but laugh at the confusion and panic on their faces.
"Shen Xiang, you go and impersonate someone from Blue Snow City to deceive them into sending over their resources," White Gossamer said, "As for how you deceive them, use your creativity!"
Sentiment X's eyes lit up, and then he quickly climbed onto a tree. From there, he glided with the wind to the turtle from above.
The group brought by Prince Imperial wasn't weak either. Even in the midst of the blizzard, they all immediately noticed when an additional person appeared.
“Who!” The two middle-aged people immediately ran out of the house.
"Are you here to deliver resources There's just a snowstorm here, I'm from Azure Frost City and I can guide you to a calm place," Ruyan said.
"Hurry hurry hurry!" The Prince was very annoyed by the bumpy ride and hurriedly called out.
Sentinel Chen immediately told the middle-aged man who controlled the giant turtle to head in the direction indicated by him.
Soon, the large tortoise arrived at a calm body of water and they were also far away from Azure Frost City.
"The people from Azure Frost City are indeed powerful, managing to get us out of the blizzard at once," Emperor Le said cheerfully.
The snowstorm was summoned by Shen Xiang; he merely put it away.
“This is experience. If you stay here for a few years, you'll also know how to get out of the snowstorm,” Shen Xiang smiled.
"Do you know who he is He's the crown prince, delivering resources to the warriors of Azure Snow City. You've been hiding in Azure Snow City for years, all in service to the entire Frostcloud Empire. That's why the crown prince himself came to deliver resources," said the middle-aged man.
"Oh You're really the crown prince I don't quite believe it. The rumors say that the crown prince is extremely arrogant and thinks highly of himself, but you seem quite easy-going. Your mannerisms suggest calmness and composure, which doesn't match the description of a wayward youth that I've heard."
It seemed like he was mocking the crown prince, but then he praised him subtly. This made it difficult for the crown prince to retaliate, considering how he felt that the subsequent remarks from Shen Xiang sounded more pleasant.
“All of this is slander deliberately targeted at me. You should also know how intense the struggles within the palace are, which is exactly what my opponents aim to smear me with. ” The Prince showed an expression of resignation, “Therefore, I have come to see you. Only then can the false impressions spread by hearsay be dispelled.”
Appears to be true indeed!
"Of course, it's genuine. Otherwise, who would waste their time pretending to be the crown prince and sending you resources The resources we provide are authentic."
"No wonder! I noticed you were rather affable, but there was also a faint air of arrogance, like that of an emperor. Now I know you're the real prince." Seeing the prince pull out a large box of ten-thousand-path divine soil crystals, the turtle was definitely hiding something else inside.
The crown prince smiled with a feeling of triumph.
"But this is not good, Young Prince," Chen said.
"Why not" asked the middle-aged man with a furrowed brow.
"The role of our soldiers in Azure Frost City should be clear to you. We only intervene when the Snow Cloud Imperial Empire is in peril," Shen Xiang said, "Our power is strong. If you come to us offering resources now, it might be misconstrued as an attempt to gain our favor. If your adversaries were to find out, they would certainly exploit this, claiming that you're trying to usurp the throne or plotting other schemes."
The Crown Prince secretly establishing connections with the Imperial army was indeed taboo. Moreover, these warriors inside Azure Snow City were highly valued by the Emperor himself. Digging into his army would have serious consequences.
The Prince and the others, upon closer thought, immediately broke into a cold sweat.
"If the crown prince wishes to act secretly, he's gravely mistaken. There are spies everywhere in Azure Snow City, spies from various factions," Shen Xiang added.
"Then... won't you speak out of turn!" The crown prince showed a killing intent in that moment, but it quickly dissipated. He wasn't daring enough to kill the warriors from Azure Snow City. If he was caught, he knew what kind of consequences it would bring.
"Of course I wouldn't say something unreasonable, Your Highness. Understanding your intention! So, please go back, Your Highness," Shen said, "The resources sent by the imperial palace are sufficient for us. There is no need for Your Highness to provide any additional resources to us."
Prince Xuan thought for a moment and said, "Since you're here already, why don't you help me deliver it Just tell them it's a small gift from the Prince, and I believe you can figure out the rest."
"Alright, I can receive it for you. But if they don't want it later, I'll send it back to you."
Scyth pondered awkwardly, "It's natural for the crown prince to send us gifts."so considered an exotic beast. Its strength resembles heavenly god and its appearance resembles wind. They usually hide in the clouds, no one has ever seen their true form.” Long Xuyi’s voice was full...
