Chapter 224 Prince
Chapter 224 Prince
Magic Palace.
Inside the hall, lights and decorations adorned the hall, and tables were laden with delicacies, a riot of flavors from land and sea. Fine liquors swirled in exquisite glass cups, emitting an alluring aroma.
Jun Moyue sat in the main seat, Lin Wanxi sat beside him, below him, Lin Chuan and Bai Zhi sat on the two sides closest to the main seat, and further back were some royal family members and confidants.
"Lin Chuan of the human race has traveled thousands of miles to awaken our princess and bestow upon her the title of prince, as well as one million spirit stones..."
An attendant's voice was loud and clear, echoing clearly in this magnificent hall.
As soon as he finished speaking, another attendant walked slowly to Lin Chuan with steady steps, holding an exquisite brocade box in both hands.
Lin Chuan reached out and took the brocade box, which contained a gilded token and a storage bag.
The prince's status is equivalent to that of the royal family of the demon clan. He is respected by all demons, but he has no real power.
"Prince Lin, please!"
Jun Moxie slowly stood up, raised his glass high, and gestured sincerely to Lin Chuan.
In an instant, the royal family members and confidants all stood up, raised their glasses, and said in unison:
"Prince Lin, please!"
The voice was uniform and loud, echoing in the hall for a long time.
"please!"
Lin Chuan stood up, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Prince Lin has a good alcohol tolerance!"
Someone shouted at the top of his lungs from below, and this shout was like a fire, instantly pushing the already heated atmosphere in the hall to a climax.
Everyone was toasting each other, the hall bustling with activity, the aroma of wine intertwined with laughter and joy. It was unknown how much time had passed before the effects of the alcohol began to take hold on Lin Chuan. His eyes began to blur, and his consciousness became somewhat erratic.
In a trance, Lin Chuan subconsciously looked across. In his hazy vision, he saw Bai Zhi's burning eyes staring straight at him, as if he was the only one he could see in this bustling banquet hall.
"Drunk?"
Like a gentle breeze, these caring words rang in Lin Chuan's ears.
Lin Chuan suddenly realized that Bai Zhi, who was sitting opposite him, had disappeared. When he looked again, he found that she had come to his side.
"is a bit."
In such occasions, almost no one would take the initiative to use spiritual energy to dispel the smell of alcohol. If one drinks too much, he or she will naturally get drunk.
At that moment, the clear sound of jingling jewelry echoed, and a group of naturally charming women walked into the hall with graceful steps. Their figures were as graceful as willow branches swaying in the spring breeze, and every step seemed to be rhythmic.
Xue Ji, the leader, wore a gossamer pink gauze dress, delicately embroidered with peach blossoms. As she moved, petals drifted down the hem. Her eyes, brimming with affection and full of life, were captivating at first glance.
Melodious music sounded at the right time, their arms were raised lightly, their wrists were as white as snow, and their fingertips seemed to be painting a beautiful picture in the air.
The waist twists like a willow in the wind, and every movement is full of endless temptation. The dance steps are light and graceful, as if walking on clouds, making people feel as if they are in a fairyland.
"If you're drunk, just take a nap."
A gentle voice rang in his ears, like a spring breeze blowing past his ears, bringing with it a hint of tenderness. The next second, a pair of soft hands gently covered Lin Chuan's eyes.
Lin Chuan: "..."
"I'm not drunk." Lin Chuan said helplessly.
Bai Zhi didn't say anything, but gently hugged Lin Chuan in her arms.
"If you like, I'll dance for you when no one is around."
Bai Zhi's voice was as soft as a dream talk, whispering in Lin Chuan's ear.
"You don't have to do so much for me. This is already good enough."
Lin Chuan rubbed himself gently in Bai Zhi's arms, his voice filled with the laziness and tenderness of drunkenness.
Bai Zhi's heart softened, and she couldn't help but tighten her arms. She looked down at Lin Chuan, her eyes gentle as water, and said softly:
"I'm willing to do this for you, as long as you're happy.
"But I hope you're happy too, instead of just accommodating me."
Lin Chuan raised his head slightly and looked straight into Bai Zhi's eyes.
"I'm happy if you're happy."
Bai Zhi shook her head gently, her lavender eyes filled with gentleness like water, like a deep pool that could embrace Lin Chuan's entire body and mind.
"..."
The faint fragrance of Baizhi lingered at the tip of his nose, like a soft dream veil, enveloping him in a peaceful atmosphere. Lin Chuan slowly closed his eyes, enjoying the tranquility and warmth.
"Son."
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Wanxi walked in front of Bai Zhi with light steps. Her beautiful eyes moved as she looked at Lin Chuan with concern.
"what happened?"
Lin Chuan stood up from Bai Zhi's arms and looked at Lin Wanxi with a puzzled look.
"Sir, you are drunk. How about I take you to rest?"
Lin Wanxi tilted her head slightly, her voice soft and gentle.
Bai Zhi frowned slightly and subconsciously pulled Lin Chuan closer to her, a subtle flicker of wariness in her eyes. Although she said nothing, a subtle resistance was evident in her aura.
"Don't worry, I'm not drunk." Lin Chuan shook his head slightly.
"Okay then." Lin Wanxi's tone was a little lost, and her originally bright eyes seemed to be covered by a layer of gauze, and the brilliance dimmed a little.
But she quickly cheered up, the light in her eyes rekindled, and she said, "I will dance for you, sir."
After saying this, Lin Wanxi walked lightly and came straight to Xue Ji. Xue Ji nodded slightly and then clapped her hands.
In an instant, the group of women around her, who were already graceful and naturally charming, gathered around Lin Wanxi quickly and lightly as if they had heard a silent command, and danced together.
"She likes you."
This time, Bai Zhi did not stop Lin Chuan from watching, but leaned close to his ear and whispered.
"Ah."
Lin Chuan was slightly stunned, then nodded.
"Do you really only have brotherly and sisterly feelings towards her?"
Bai Zhi raised her eyes and looked straight at Lin Chuan, with a searching look in her eyes.
"Ah."
Lin Chuan still nodded, his eyes clear and firm.
Bai Zhi didn't say anything more, but just sat quietly aside with a faint smile on her lips.
Lin Chuan watched the dance, and she watched Lin Chuan.
After a long time, the dance ended, and the audience seemed to be ignited by the flames of passion, with applause like a surging wave and cheers rising one after another.
"Sir, how's my dancing?"
Lin Wanxi walked gracefully and elegantly to Lin Chuan. She tilted her head slightly, her bright eyes flickering as she looked at Lin Chuan with anticipation.
"As graceful as a startled swan, as graceful as a swimming dragon."
Lin Chuan nodded slightly, his eyes full of appreciation and admiration, and he praised generously.
"Hehe, as long as you like it, sir."
Lin Wanxi's eyebrows were curved like crescent moons, and her smile seemed to overflow from her eyes.
Bai Zhi, who was standing aside, frowned slightly and pursed her thin lips, as if she was thinking about something.
"Why didn't he praise me like this before?"
