Chapter 168: The Crown Prince's Request!

  Xiao Yun slightly nodded her head, "As it happens, I had a small matter to ask you about, Brother Jie. But before I could find you, you've already sent someone to look for me."

  "Oh?" Xiang Liu heard the words, looked at Xiao Yun with a puzzled expression, "Xiao brother, what's going on? Speak up, in this Dragon City, I still have some say."

  The majestic prince, how can he be speechless?

  Xiao Yun paused for a moment and said, "I heard that Chunfeng Pavilion was sealed off last night. It should have something to do with you, Jie brother?"

  Xia Liu nodded directly without avoiding the topic, "This time we were able to investigate so smoothly and clarify the forces behind Chunfeng Pavilion, it must be said that you, Xiao brother, also made an indispensable contribution."

  Xiao Yungang laughed and asked, "But I don't know, was that white feather caught yesterday?"

  "Huh? Why does Xiao brother ask this?" Ji Liu Feng vaguely guessed Xiao Yun's thoughts.

  Xiao Yun Dao said, "This person has a great feud with me, I have vowed to personally kill that demon, so..."

  The words haven't been said yet, but I believe Ji Liu Feng should be able to understand his own meaning.

  "Actually, I didn't catch White Feather last night, nor did I catch that Mingyu girl. That woman is not an ordinary person. After I returned to the palace last night, I immediately gathered experts to take action under Spring Breeze Pavilion, and the reaction was very fast. However, we still couldn't catch them. What we brought back were just some small fry."

  Xiao Yun let out a breath of relief, it was good that he didn't catch him. If Bai Yu was caught, he would be an imperial prisoner, and if he wanted to kill him for revenge, it wouldn't be so easy.

  At this time, Ji Liufeng said again, "Xiao brother, do you know Bai Yu's identity?"

  Xiao Yun shook his head. After returning from Da Liang, he hadn't intentionally inquired about it, but that guy had reached the late stage of a demon master at such a young age, so his background should be quite impressive.

  "He is one of the eighteen demon kings of the demon tribe, and the grandson of Eagle White Brow, the eagle king of the winged tribe."

  "Huh?"

  Xiao Yun was shocked, having expected that Bai Yu would have some background, but never thought it would be connected to the Eighteen Demon Kings. The Eighteen Demon Kings represented the eighteen most powerful forces of the demon tribe, each one not to be underestimated, enough to make every continent and country fearful. And yet, Bai Yu turned out to be the grandson of Eagle White Brow?

  Xiang Liu's gaze swept across Xiao Yun's face, his eyes brightening slightly. "However, Brother Xiao can rest assured that Miss Ming Yu may have already left Long City, but I can confirm that Bai Yu has absolutely not left."

  "Oh? Why is Big Brother so sure?" Xiao Yun asked doubtfully.

  Xianliu smiled and said, "The reason is simple. This time Baiyu came to Longcheng with a legitimate identity."

  "What rightful status?" A member of the demon tribe, walking in the human world, can still have a rightful status? Xiao Yun was puzzled.

  "Within a month, it will be the day of my seventh sister's marriage and the selection of her groom. Bai Yu is here for this reason, representing the Feather Tribe. Father Emperor fears Mo Tian Ridge, so even if Bai Yu didn't escape, we wouldn't have a reason to capture him."

  Unlike Ming Yu, Bai Yu has a brilliant identity and came to Long City in a grand manner. Although the entire city is now conducting a massive manhunt, even if they found Bai Yu, they wouldn't be able to find any reason to arrest him. After all, Bai Yu had only appeared at Chunfeng Pavilion before, and his current identity is still that of a young talent representing the Feather Tribe in the competition for the Dragon Horse position. If anything happened to Bai Yu, Motian Ridge would definitely seize the opportunity to go on a rampage.

  "This time's Summer Emperor's son-in-law selection, can the demon clan also participate?" Xiao Yun asked in puzzlement.

  Ji Liu Feng smiled wryly, "This is indeed my oversight, I didn't think it through beforehand. I thought only the eight countries of the mainland would come to participate, but I didn't expect to stir up other forces. Now, I'm afraid it's not just the demon tribe, many evil sects are also gathering in Long City. This time, the engagement ceremony might be ruined by them."

  "Does Big Brother know where Bai Yu is now?" asked Xiao Yun, whether the marriage meeting will be cancelled or not, he doesn't care, now he just wants to catch Bai Yu and have a fierce fight.

  "That guy's got some real skills, and although I've ordered a city-wide manhunt, I'm afraid it won't yield much. White Feather's no pushover; if he sets his mind on hiding, finding him won't be easy."

  Xiao Yun's eyebrows furrowed.

  The corners of Xiang Liu's mouth rose slightly, "However, if Xiao brothers want to find him, it shouldn't be difficult either!"

  "Is Brother Jia willing to help me find him?" asked Xiao Yun, the vast Dragon City, relying on one person, wanting to catch White Feather, how easy is it? If you want to find him, you must borrow the power of Jia Liu Feng.

  Xia Liu Feng heard this and shook his head, "No need to look for him, there's a place he'll definitely go. If Xiao Brothers goes to that place, he'll definitely be able to find him."

  "Where?" asked Xiao Yun.

  "A matchmaking gathering in a month!" Ji Liufeng finally slowly revealed his true intentions.

  "Matchmaking meeting?" Xiao Yun furrowed her brow, looking at Ji Liufeng's face, clearly hinting at something.

  Xianliu Feng smiled faintly, "Baiyu represents the Yu tribe at the marriage conference. As long as he remains in Longcheng, no matter where he hides, he will appear when the time comes. If Xiao brothers want to find him, they might as well attend the marriage conference too. At that time, a formal competition on stage would be fine. Even if you kill Baiyu, Motianya won't have a decent reason to deal with you."

  "Matchmaking meeting? That's still a month away. Xiao Yun looked at Ji Liu Feng, "Brother Ji, you want me to attend the matchmaking?"

  To get to this point, Ji Liufeng stopped beating around the bush and nodded at Xiao Yun, "To be honest, I invited you out today, firstly to catch up with my brother, and secondly, it's precisely because of this matter!"

  Xiao Yun didn't interrupt Ji Liufeng's words, but her heart was full of doubts. Did Ji Liufeng find her just to let her attend the matchmaking?

  "The reason for this marriage is that both the Flame and Zhou nations came to ask for her hand in marriage at the same time, but my sister didn't want to marry either of them. To avoid offending either nation, I had no choice but to resort to this plan. However, I didn't expect things to develop so far beyond my expectations, with even foreign cultivators showing up. If those evil beings were to win the marriage competition, it would be a shame for our great Xia dynasty to have a foreign cultivator as a son-in-law. How could we show our faces if this got out?"

  "What makes you look for me, Brother Jie?" asked Xiao Yun.

  "The wind blew, and the words flowed out. 'Although our human tribe has many masters, I know that there are also many powerful beings among the other tribes. However, that White Feather is already a strong warrior in the late stages of his cultivation. Among the younger generation, although it's not to the extent of producing another Le Zong, those who surpass White Feather are definitely not few in number. As for what kind of scene will unfold at the upcoming marriage gathering, no one can predict. My father and I have discussed this, and rather than leaving the outcome uncertain, we'd rather control the result ourselves. Conveniently, Brother Xiao has returned safely, and Ninth Uncle is also extremely fond of you. Now, I can represent my father in telling you that as long as you attend the marriage gathering, the position of son-in-law will be yours.'"

  Xiao Yun was stunned, never expecting that Jie Liufeng would say such a thing. As long as he himself went to participate in the recruitment, the position of son-in-law would be his? This is completely a dark horse!

  If it were someone else, they would have agreed to it by now. However, Xiao Yun was different. Firstly, he had only come to Long City in passing this time. Secondly, he and Ji Xiang Yue had only met twice before. Although Ji Xiang Yue was very beautiful, there was no emotional foundation between them, and Xiao Yun did not like this kind of marriage arrangement.

  "Brother, don't you think too highly of me?" Xiao Yun was momentarily at a loss, unsure of how to refuse.

  "I was thinking of changing the rules to make it easier for you to win, but that would have led to dissatisfaction from all parties. However, now that I see Xiao Brother again, my previous worries were unnecessary. With your abilities, winning first place fairly and squarely is not a difficult task at all. To be honest, Xiao Brother's character stands out, and his talents are impressive... even the Seventh Princess admires you greatly..."

  Xiao Yun was talking endlessly, with such a natural talent, he must be the descendant of the Music God, if someone had to take on the role of the Crown Prince, Xiao Yun would undoubtedly be the best candidate.

  However, Ji Liu Feng's words made Xiao Yun sweat profusely, and it wasn't until now that Xiao Yun realized he was so 'excellent'.
