"Welcome back, Your Highness Princess."
The warm atmosphere of the banquet and the intoxicating feeling of feasting and feasting gradually faded away with the movement of the steps, and were replaced by the bright moonlight spreading on the edge of the balcony under the dim light. The chattering person who came here drank the red wine glass in his hand. Gently placing it on the front edge of the window sill, the original intention of lifting the blue-purple dress was slowly put down as the words came out: "It's still as popular today as ever."
"Welcome back, Your Highness the Prince." He did not immediately respond to the words coming from outside the balcony. He just shook his head with a smile on his face and said, "Although it is a bit strange to say such things at a banquet, let's treat this place as... Our base camp."
"As long as I can find you, it's not unreasonable to treat me as a home." Duan Qing, who was leaning on the edge of the wall outside the balcony with his arms folded, showed a strange smile at the corner of his mouth: "It's unreasonable It’s probably just the matter of ‘Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is sitting at the top of the banquet, and there are not as many invitees around you as there are around you’.”
"You just want to see my jokes." A strange smile also appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he replied calmly in a whispering voice: "Believe it or not, I will drag you in now?"
"No, no, no, let's not cause unnecessary commotion."
Duan Qing, who was leaning on the edge of the balcony, quickly rejected the other party's temptation and glanced at the banquet behind him: "I managed to sneak into this banquet with all my disguise and concealment. Using methods such as tracking and refraction camouflage, most of the potions I carefully prepared have been consumed."
"Then have you accomplished your action goal?"
"Of course, I've met everyone I need to see."
A window sill away, Duan Qing, bathed in the moonlight, answered the woman with her hands on the window, her long blue hair flowing easily under the blue and white moonlight: "I have to say that the competition you held this time It was very successful, both Pamir and Reina praised you for your large-scale event that 'pleased' them, and as long as they leaders have no objections, the rest of the ministers, parliamentarians and nobles will naturally be able to handle it."
"The most important thing is: through this competition, the relationship between the two countries has been greatly eased again." Speaking of this, the relaxation in Duan Qing's tone became more and more obvious: "The previous mission When it comes to peace talks, the highest levels of the principality and the representatives of the empire have always been tit-for-tat opponents. They have never sat together to appreciate and enjoy it like today, and use such activities to bridge the relationship between each other... Well, what are you doing?"
"Can't you come out and enjoy the moon?"
Watching the chatter flowing around the window, opening the door and coming to the balcony, Duan Qing hurriedly glanced in the direction of the banquet. The blue-haired woman spinning her body with her dress also smiled slightly, and then walked toward the moonlight. Walking in the direction: "Don't worry, they won't find you."
"Coming here without a bunch of your admirers for no reason is already eye-catching enough." Duan Qing shook his head and then sighed: "You really want to drag me over to be you I need a shield to feel at ease?"
"If you are willing, of course I have no problem." He folded his arms and supported himself on the edge of the balcony, murmuring and looking back with a breathtaking smile: "Just like the 'Yun Shang Yu Hui' in "Sword Fairy" Same as that time."
"That time is to complete the task, okay? The task requires two people to meet the Nine Heavens Xuannv together, and they are the best couple at the conference... ahem, only cultivators of husband-wife relationship can do it, so we can't Not acting in such a drama—ouch!”
"acting?"
"No, no, no, it's not just acting! The heels of high-heeled shoes are very painful!"
"I just want to make you hurt! I really want to make your heart hurt! You enjoyed being accompanied by two beautiful girls on your adventure today, didn't you? Tell me, where have you been fooling around?"
"Hey, how can I be so unbearable as you said? We have been busy today, okay? You, please don't get excited first, otherwise someone will really find out if you kick me!"
"Discovered is better."
Lifting her skirt, she put away her slender right leg and an angry expression. She turned around, tilted her head and let out an elegant low smile: "Then I will legitimately take the place of that little girl Ling Bing. Let her hold her sword and cry in self-pity in the corner."
"If this is the case, Ling Bing probably wouldn't hold the sword and cry in the corner. Instead, he would hold the sword and kill someone directly on the head." Duan Qing, who was packing his clothes, replied expressionlessly: "Although She has known for a long time that the two of us have been dating for a long time, but she probably won’t give in just yet.”
"Humph, that's why I've been giving in until now." He turned his head away with a pout, mumbling to himself. His slightly low waist showed a confusing and proud curve under the outline of the moonlight: "Wait. Look, after all the use value of that little girl is squeezed out, let me teach her a lesson and let her know what a real love rival is."
"I have started to feel stomach pain, even if the pain in the free world is just simulated." So Duan Qing could only press his belly and bow: "Just that little Qian came over to 'declare sovereignty' secretly Those actions have already caused me enough trouble, and I am deeply afraid that Ling Bing will one day be unable to bear it any longer and pick up the knife and chop me down first...ahem."
"Anyway, let's get down to business first."
Not wanting to face the murmuring eyes again, Duan Qing coughed and turned his head away from the balcony: "Anyway, this time, I investigated all the things that should be investigated, including The flowing structure of the entire city’s earth, and the still-unsolved mystery of Prince Chris hanging over everyone’s heads.”
"Because time is limited, I will just say the conclusion: the possibility of Chris being controlled by someone and committing unimaginable evil deeds does exist." The gray-robed magician gradually frowned: "It's just that this The possibility is too slim, and there is no other evidence to prove it, so it cannot be discussed on the table."
"The key problem is that from the perspective of the principality and the empire, they may not accept such an explanation." Xu Yuliu looked up at the bright moon above his head: "It goes without saying that Pamir, regardless of his identity as a victim, , both he and his principality need this incident to reverse the situation, at least to gain a moral upper hand in the confrontation between the two countries. As for Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess——"
"I think her request is not just as simple as 'deposing the prince'." The long blue hair that was flowing in the whisper began to flutter in the wind as these words came out: "We are both in that position. I have been living for a long time, and I still have the slightest intuition: Drenir sent her to serve as the general representative of the envoy this time, which may eventually lead to a catastrophe."
"I'm afraid Drenier took a fancy to this point and sent Reina to preside over the matter." Duan Qing shook his head instead: "Only when it comes to that situation, can Chris have the courage to do so?" Then there is a slight chance of survival, after all, you should also know the content of my 'deal' with her."
"How does Her Majesty the Princess feel?" She seemed to understand what Duan Qing was saying. She murmured and tapped her cheek with a smile: "This is my favorite style of acting, just like how I deal with those useless chess pieces."
"This move can't be made now." Duan Qing pressed his forehead and sighed, and then reminded the opponent: "If the eldest princess escapes from control, at least Tania will be difficult to keep. I don't want to see it. To see this city that I first worked for disappear into the long river of history, not to mention that it is closely related to the future of this world."
"Next, I will find an opportunity to visit Foxon, the oldest Tadaya survivor." Having said this, he stood up and straightened his body: "About Tania's origins and the situation in that palace, there are some abnormalities. I’m afraid we have to start digging out the secrets of the earth’s veins from his body.”
"It seems that you have been brooding about the plot that was interrupted by the server upgrade." Whispering words turned around to hide his graceful back: "But according to the upcoming schedule, your free time will only change. It’s getting less and less.”
"What? Hey, don't go too far."
"Don't forget that Jianghu is the organizer. I don't have the power to make decisions. If they hadn't looked at my face as the organizer of the new alliance and a member of the organizing committee, they wouldn't have told me the arrangements for the main competition. .”
"...Well, according to the temperament of the Long brothers, I'm afraid they will have to arrange things clearly this time."
"It's okay, it was just a big fight."
Blinking his eyes, he suddenly couldn't help but chuckle.

: "Do you still remember the 'Hydrangea Throwing' we played in the Sword-Forging Villa in "Jianghu"?"
"As expected of the Long family brothers who have mastered that world. This time's main event is very similar to that event."
"Very good, everyone is here, right?"
The early morning sunshine covered the night of people drinking and drinking, and the night of carnival and celebration did not seem to encounter any obstacles or erosion. The major guilds and adventurers who had rested for the night later gathered again in Tania's On the central square, the teams and players scattered in every corner were looking neatly at the face of Duan Fenglei on the high platform above: "No one who is qualified to continue participating in the game should be in such an important position. It’s okay to be absent all the time, unless you have been frightened by yesterday’s chaos and have lost confidence in your future.”
"It doesn't matter. Now that you have come to this day, you have proven that you are a little better than those 'rookies'." There was a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth, and Duan Fenglei's eyes inadvertently glanced towards From the other side of the venue: "Compared with those losers, you are less qualified to give up the 'chicken beak' that is already within your reach."
"I won't say anything more. Anyway, in my eyes, you people are just foils after all." Turning his head, the middle-aged man seemed unwilling to look at everyone in the audience again: "In the end, they will all become our defeated enemies."
"Okay, okay, I know you are not convinced. Those who are not convinced should prove it with actual actions instead of continuing to bark here." Taking Duan Fenglei's place, the carefree Duan Shanyue also blocked his broad arms. In front of everyone: "You should have got the parchment that was given to you when you entered the venue, right? The competition rules of the main competition are written on it. Although it is relatively complicated, if you don't even have the ability to understand this, Then it’s better not to continue participating in the competition, pack up your things early and go back to being a fool.”
"Hey, is what's written on this true?"
Amidst the noise all around, a player who was squeezed into the corner of the square held up the parchment roll in his hand and whispered to someone next to him: "Are we going to fight on the Sky City?"
"I have the opportunity to go to the Sky City. You can see it clearly." The player in question replied with a dissatisfied look on his face: "They are trying to manually imitate the 'random venue' game... Well, they have Is that what you have?"
"If this kind of technology can really be realized, it would be considered progress." The player holding the parchment said with a fascination, and then seemed to have just noticed the abnormality of the respondent: "Hey, this brother, Where is your parchment scroll?"
"I don't have this thing." The player with his arms folded snorted: "I'm here to watch the excitement, not a contestant. You can go and fight your own."
"oh oh."
Looking at the other party again with some embarrassment, the player who asked the question took two steps back unnaturally while holding the scroll. He no longer wanted to listen to the loud explanation from Broken Mountain above. He then turned around and looked around for a while, and then grabbed another player. The nearest magician: "Brother, do you know what it says on this is... uh, are you a contestant?"
"Me?" The gray-robed magician who was pulled pointed at his nose and was stunned for a while, and then replied unnaturally: "That's right."
"Really? But why didn't I see your teammates?"
"They haven't come yet."
Faced with the questioner looking left and right at him, the gray-robed magician scratched his head and became more unnatural: "Do you have any more questions? If not -"
"Ah, then we are the same."
Ignoring the other party's attitude of wanting to evict the guest, the man who held on to the other party pointed at himself and said with a smile: "My teammates didn't come either. They celebrated until three o'clock in the middle of the night last night, and they are still lying on the bed now. I was sent here as a representative, hehehe... You are also a representative, right?"
"My name is Pan, and I am a warrior." The finger pointed to the top of his head. The player who called himself Pan was stunned again: "Huh? Where is your name? Difficult, aren't you—— "
"No, no, no, I am a player, I just blocked my name." He waved his palm casually above his head, and the gray-robed magician sighed and denied, "But... the name Pan is a bit familiar to me. ah."
"Is the captain of your team a person named Teacher Zhou Xue?"
