After receiving the Life Extension Pills offered by Zhao Letian, the Ice River Xuan Turtle Demon Core was of no use to Murong Shengxiong.
Perfectly, Murong Shengxiong sensed the aura of the Ice River Xuan Turtle Demon Core in the Life Extension Pills, aware that Zhao Letian needed it, so he did him a favor by casually giving it to him.
If Meng Yi knew, risking his life and painstakingly hunting the Demon Core, only to end up in Zhao Letian's hands, he would certainly spit blood in anger.
"Thank you, Holy Monarch."
Zhao Letian was overjoyed and, collecting the Token and Demon Core, bowed in thanks.
The Ice River Xuan Turtle Demon Core he held was used up, having concocted a total of nine Life Extension Pills, all dedicated to Murong Shengxiong. If he wanted to continue making more Life Extension Pills, he certainly needed the Ice River Xuan Turtle Demon Core.
"Just a mere Demon Core, it's nothing noteworthy, you guys chat."
Murong Shengxiong shook his head indifferently, then his figure flickered, and without knowing what method he used, vanished into thin air.
Thus, in the courtyard, only Zhao Letian and Princess Murong Wan'er remained standing under the huge flower tree.
The two of them stood there quietly, neither speaking, but the atmosphere was not awkward. It was as if they had known each other for a long time, needing only a glance to understand each other's thoughts, making words seem superfluous.
"Don't you have anything you want to say to me?"
After a long silence, Princess Murong Wan'er glanced at Zhao Letian and said petulantly.
In her view, Zhao Letian was simply a blockhead, too unromantic, actually making her, a girl, initiate conversation.
"Why didn't you kill me back then?"
Zhao Letian asked with a gentle smile.
"Why would I want to kill you?"
Murong Wan'er retorted, her beautiful eyes gleaming with playful mirth.
"Didn't I see things I shouldn't have? Don't I deserve to be killed?"
Zhao Letian revealed a faint sly smile.
To this day, the flawless, sacred body of Princess Murong Wan'er lingered vividly in his mind, unable to be dispelled from his sight.
"How dare you bring that up!"
Murong Wan'er's eyes showed shyness and anger as she glared at Zhao Letian.
Zhao Letian was taking advantage once again by bringing up the incident.
"I have always been puzzled; you knew I was a person from Dajin Country yet you didn't kill me, even treated my wounds, and saved my life. Could it be, it was love at first sight?"
Zhao Letian shook his head smiling.
"You wish, who fell in love with you at first sight? I saved you merely out of curiosity. Normally, only members of the Gray Wolf Royal Family and successive Holy Daughters are eligible to enter Heavenly Pond Sacred Land. Yet, you a person from Dajin Country not only trespassed into Heavenly Pond Sacred Land but even voluntarily absorbed the Holy Spirit Power. This event is unprecedented, keeping you alive was only to clarify this matter, now you can honestly explain everything."
Murong Wan'er glanced at Zhao Letian petulantly as she spoke.
"So that place was Heavenly Pond Sacred Land? I'm afraid I'll disappoint the princess. In fact, I also don't know why I could enter Heavenly Pond Sacred Land nor why I absorbed that Holy Spirit Power."
Zhao Letian said thoughtfully and then shook his head.
"You don't know either? Well, never mind, but at least, you should tell the princess your real name and background, right? Additionally, I'm also curious about what you experienced after you drifted away from Heavenly Pond Sacred Land."
Murong Wan'er frowned slightly and then shook her head unconcernedly.
The most up-to-date version is on *.
"My real name is Zhao Letian, and as for my background, there's not much to say; besides having the Royal Bloodline of Dajin Country flowing through me, there's not much else noteworthy about my identity."
Zhao Leitian said with a light smile.
"So you're Zhao Letian?"
Murong Wan'er showed a look of surprise in her eyes.
"Princess, you've heard of my name?"
Zhao Letian asked in surprise.
"Hmph, perhaps you don't know, but your name has already spread across the border areas, and even within the Royal Capital, many have heard your real name. In the border wars, you defeated the demon genius Ao Ri of the Heavenly Wolf Tribe, decided the fate of the heavens in one battle, and led to our Gray Wolf Kingdom's utter defeat in that war. Your name, Zhao Letian, is already well known to me."
Murong Wan'er huffed indignantly.
Although she understood Zhao Letian's stance at that time, she was ultimately the Princess and Holy Daughter of the Gray Wolf Kingdom; Zhao Letian aiding Dajin Country in defeating the Gray Wolf Kingdom still left her quite dissatisfied.
"Your Highness should know that I had no other choice at that time. As a member of Dajin Country, I could only aid Dajin Country. Of course, once we are married, I will do my utmost to prevent conflicts between Gray Wolf Kingdom and Dajin Country."
Zhao Letian smiled helplessly.
"Who's going to marry you? My father said that if you can't rank among the top in the Imperial Secret Realm and defeat people like Baru and Ye Zhenxiao, then you can't become the final candidate for Prince Consort."
Murong Wan'er's fair cheeks under her veil flushed with a hint of shyness.
"I will defeat them and surely rank among the top."
Zhao Letian said calmly, his tone filled with strong confidence.
"Enough about that, tell me about your experiences after you left the Heavenly Pond Sacred Land."
Murong Wan'er asked, interested in everything about Zhao Letian, the man she admired.
"At that time, I had passed out and was drifting in the Holy River until I met her..."
Zhao Letian slowly narrated, briefly sharing his experiences in the Baihua Tribe.
"Cailian? She must be beautiful too, right?"
Murong Wan'er ignored the other things Zhao Letian talked about, fixating only on this name he kept mentioning, with a hint of jealousy flashing in her beautiful eyes.
A woman's intuition told her that the relationship between Zhao Letian and Cailian was not simple.
"Indeed, she is an extraordinary beauty."
Zhao Letian did not hide it and nodded, speaking frankly.
Cailian was also a woman he vowed to protect, and he would not conceal this from the Princess.
If the Princess could not accept Cailian's presence and chose to leave him, he would respect the Princess's decision.
"Although she is also your lifesaver, the fact is, I saved you first, so I should be the main one."
Murong Wan'er glared at Zhao Letian, speaking indignantly.
In the Martial Arts World, powerful martial artists, regardless of gender, can have many spouses; this is quite ordinary. Being a child of the grasslands, Murong Wan'er, more open than average martial artists, naturally could accept Cailian.
Zhao Letian smiled happily, expressing his sincere gratitude.
