Chapter 1149 Rainbow Spirit Aura Emperor

Xu Qing didn't know much about Princess Anhai. When he had seen her at the Seventh Prince's banquet back then, she didn't speak much. However, through the analysis after that and the trend of the Holy Wave Large Region, he could still see her intelligence.

Back then, looking at the Seventh Prince's reaction, he seemed to be a little wary of Princess Anhai.

In addition, from the maid servant's actions, one could tell that she was neither servile nor overbearing. Her expression and words were calm and revealed appropriate respect.

Hence, Xu Qing glanced at Ning Yan.

Ning Yan hesitated.

When the maidservant saw this, she didn't say anything else. After bowing to Ning Yan and Xu Qing, she turned and left.

Seeing that the other party had left, Ning Yan sighed.

"Boss, that Granny Sun is close friends with the Third Sister's biological mother and Fifth Brother's biological mother."

"The relationships are complicated. I might have to make a trip there. Boss, can you accompany me?"

Ning Yan looked at Xu Qing hesitantly, feeling a little uneasy.

The closer he got to the Grand Imperial Capital Region, the more nervous Ning Yan became. The hesitation of not wanting to return was very obvious.Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

Xu Qing thought about it. It would take a few days for the array formation to be set up, so there was enough time. Since Ning Yan made such a request, he must be really uncertain.

Xu Qing nodded.

"Let's go."

When Ning Yan heard Xu Qing's words, he immediately perked up. With Xu Qing around, he was confident.

Just like that, the two of them left the location of the teleportation array.

Zi Xuan wanted to maintain the array formation with Li Yunshan, so she didn't go with him. As for the captain, he had been studying Furry Pancake's hairs for the past few months and didn't have the mood to go.

Hence, only Xu Qing and Ning Yan flew toward Granny Sun's residence under the protection of some Sword Holders.

There was no need to identify the exact location. Ning Yan relied on his connection with Princess Anhai and quickly found the place. It was a courtyard that looked like a garden, covering a considerable area. The flowers were in full bloom, and there was a constant array formation isolating the gray cotton.

All the artificial mountains inside were made of jade. There was also a spirit spring that had been moved over, causing the spirit energy in the entire courtyard to be dense. Its level was far from what ordinary sects in Fenghai County could compare to.

In the center of the courtyard, there was a banquet taking place. Seated at the head was an elderly woman, with a kind and gentle smile, dressed in luxurious attire. She was engaged in conversation with a young girl in palace attire.

Below, there were two rows of tables with guests, toasting and enjoying themselves. Numerous maidservants moved around, changing plates and offering fresh fruits from time to time.

In the middle, there were nine tall cultivators fighting.

As they intertwined, spell fluctuations echoed. Their demeanor was extraordinary and very interesting.

Through the bloodline connection, Princess Anhai sensed Xu Qing and Ning Yan's arrival immediately. She whispered something into the old woman's ear and the old woman nodded slightly.

The moment Xu Qing and Ning Yan got close, the array formation in the courtyard opened on its own, revealing a path.

Ning Yan took a deep breath and looked at Xu Qing beside him. His heart calmed down a little again and he walked into the array formation with Xu Qing, appearing in the courtyard.

The battle at the banquet paused for a moment. The cultivators in the middle respectfully retreated. Ning Yan quickly walked a few steps and arrived in front of the old woman. He cupped his fists and bowed.

"Greetings, Granny Sun."

Granny Sun's gaze landed on Ning Yan, her expression a little cold. After nodding slightly, she no longer bothered with him. She didn't even glance at Xu Qing and continued to speak to Princess Anhai.

As Princess Anhai responded, she nodded at Ning Yan and Xu Qing with an apologetic expression.

Ning Yan didn't feel anything about this. He was long used to others' coldness. At this moment, he felt that it was still alright and chose the table at the end to sit down.

Xu Qing didn't care about the coldness of unrelated people. He only cared if the other party had any ill intentions.

His expression was calm as he sat beside Ning Yan.

The banquet continued.

The two of them attracted the attention of the others. Some discussed through voice transmissions, some smiled and nodded, and some had disdain written all over their faces.

After experiencing so many things, Xu Qing was well aware that people's expressions were often a reflection of their inner thoughts, but more often than not, they were just masks.

Hence, no matter what other people's expressions were, these weren't important.

He picked up the flask in front of him and took a sip. His eyes narrowed slightly. The wine here was much better than in Fenghai County.

Despite being alcohol, it felt thick and viscous in the mouth, prompting a few words to surface in Xu Qing's mind.

Ambrosial nectar.

After tasting it, Xu Qing simply drank a few more mouthfuls. Ning Yan, who was at the side, saw this and spoke in a low voice.

"Boss, I know a few wine shops that have some good wine in the Imperial Capital. I'll get them for you when we arrive there."

Xu Qing nodded slightly. He sat there and sipped the wine. He was prepared to drink until the end of today's banquet.

As time passed, the banquet featured various delights, and laughter echoed throughout. Every now and then, Princess Anhai would share some cheerful words with Granny Sun, bringing smiles to everyone present.

Only Xu Qing and Ning Yan were left out. The former calmly drank the wine while the latter accompanied him at the side. When he sensed that the wine was finished, he immediately called for the maidservant to bring more.

As for Princess Anhai, she didn't seem to have any ill intentions. She tried many times to get them to join her but to no avail. Although Granny Sun couldn't be considered malicious, she didn't care too much. She was still cold.

In the end, because Princess Anhai couldn't personally speak, she could only get the maidservant beside her to send a message.

"Please don't misunderstand. The princess has good intentions. Although Granny Sun has left the Imperial Capital, she has a lot of connections in the Imperial Capital. The families of many nobles and influential people are all her friends. If she acknowledges the twelfth highness, she can help him smooth over many potential malice. The princess originally had this intention."

Xu Qing nodded and raised his wine glass toward Princess Anhai.

Princess Anhai nodded slightly. She indeed had good intentions, but it was a pity that Granny Sun clearly didn't like Ning Yan very much.

This lasted until the clouds in the sky gradually turned red and the red clouds spread. When the sun set, Xu Qing burped.

The wine was quite enjoyable for him, and as he was about to get up to leave with Ning Yan, a thunderous sound echoed through the sky.

This thunder exploded and rumbled in the sky. The red clouds churned and scattered, and the sky was instantly covered by a layer of rainbow light. It was like a rainbow curtain that covered the sky.

Within this colorful curtain, there was a gigantic peacock that covered the sky. It rapidly transformed from within the illusion until fully revealed, and the so-called rainbow colors turned out to be its tail feathers.

This peacock was extraordinary and extremely beautiful. Its appearance caused the world to lose its color and all living beings to feel inferior.

This scene shocked most of Nanxin County, and it was even more so for everyone in the courtyard below the rainbow-

colored sky.

Most of them stood up and looked at the sky. Even Granny Sun, who was beside Princess Anhai, revealed joy in her eyes as she looked at the sky.

"Spirit Aura Emperor!"

In the Gray Sea Region, there were several forbidden zones but only one forbidden region.

It was called the Tomb of Radiance.

There was an emperor in the forbidden region called Aura. Because it was quite friendly to the myriad races and its strength was terrifying, it lived in peace with the various races in the Gray Sea.

The external world called it the Spirit Aura Emperor.

It rarely went out. Every time it appeared, the rainbow light would purify the gray cotton, and because of its beautiful appearance, it was considered an auspicious sign in the Gray Sea.

There was a past connection between it and Granny Sun. She had once done Granny Sun a favor in her early years. Even now, in the eyes of many people, this kindness served as a layer of protection for Granny Sun.

Seeing the figure of her benefactor, a smile appeared on Granny Sun's face. Her expression was filled with respect and she was about to watch the other party leave because she knew that the Spirit Aura Emperor rarely went out. It would only appear when it had something to deal with.

Hence, in her opinion, the other party was only passing by.

However, very soon, her heart trembled.

She wasn't the only one who was shocked. The others in the courtyard and Princess Anhai were all extremely shocked.

This was because the Spirit Aura Emperor, which represented auspiciousness, didn't leave after revealing its figure. Instead, it walked toward the courtyard. As it got closer, its body flickered with light. Finally, when it reached the top of the courtyard, it had already transformed from a peacock to a human.

She had a graceful figure, a cold expression, and a peerlessly beautiful appearance. She was like the plum in winter snow, arousing distant thoughts and making one forget that its branch had thorns.

Her black hair was tied up with a jade hairpin. As she walked over, the pearl flowers swayed and scattered, creating a colorful spectacle in the air.

She was dressed in palace attire and looked otherworldly, standing with elegance and pride. Her phoenix-like eyes were eye-catching. When one looked at her, they would subconsciously lower their head.

Especially the sleeves of the purple palace attire that were fluttering in the wind. It gave her a grace beyond words, exuding a noble and ethereal charm.

This scene could only be described as a fairy descending to the mortal world.

Granny Sun's expression was solemn as she respectfully spoke.

"Welcome, Spirit Aura Emperor."

The others, even Princess Anhai, hurriedly greeted. Ning Yan also took a deep breath. He was intimidated by the other party's beauty. It was unknown if it was the light from the sun or his own heartbeat that caused his face to turn red.

As for the fairy-like Spirit Aura Emperor, her expression was calm when faced with everyone's greetings. She only nod at Granny Sun and didn't bother with her anymore. Instead, she walked into the courtyard step by step.

Under everyone's gazes, she walked toward the end of the banquet.

As she got closer, Ning Yan, who was standing there, became increasingly excited. He felt that the other party was staring at him but very soon, he shockingly discovered that the person she was staring at was not him but… Xu Qing.

Spirit Aura Emperor stood in front of Xu Qing.

"Xu Qing? Huang Yan told me about you."

A cold voice rang out from her mouth.

This scene instantly turned into thunder in everyone's hearts. Everyone couldn't take their eyes off it as disbelief filled their minds.

This was especially so for Granny Sun.

She had heard of Xu Qing but she didn't care too much. After all, they were unrelated. No matter what the other party was like, she didn't have any descendants to worry about, so she naturally didn't need to deliberately befriend him.

If they got along well, she would lend a hand. If not, the person would just be a passerby."

However, now, the Spirit Aura Emperor, who rarely appeared, actually came specially for the other party. This scene caused her previous thoughts to waver.

As for Xu Qing, although he was surprised, this was also within his expectations. He already had an answer to the other party's identity.

Hence, he cupped his fists and bowed, taking out the feather and pouch that Huang Yan had given him.

The Spirit Aura Emperor's gaze swept across the feather. In the end, she took the bag and opened it. She then took out a red fruit and placed it in her mouth to suck. After that, she gazed around and simply sat beside Xu Qing. She then called for Xu Qing to sit down as well.

After Xu Qing sat down obediently, the Spirit Aura Emperor took out a fruit and passed it to Xu Qing.

"Eat?"

Xu Qing took it and placed it in his mouth to inhale. Immediately, his eyes lit up. The taste of this fruit was extremely special. It was even purer and thicker than the wine he had drunk previously.

Everyone gazed at each other. Ning Yan's heart raced. He looked at the Spirit Aura Emperor and then at Xu Qing. His heart was suddenly filled with pride.

"This is my boss!"

Ning Yan lifted his head and puffed out his chest as he sat down as well.

The banquet paused for a moment before proceeding again with Granny Sun's solemn arrangements. Moreover, the specifications were even higher than before. All the gazes were focused on Xu Qing.

A smile slowly appeared on Granny Sun's face. She gazed at Xu Qing and then at Ning Yan. After some thought, a kind expression appeared on her face.

"Twelfth highness, come to this old woman's place and let me take a good look at you. Time flies so quickly. The scene of your mother entering the palace, the ceremony His Majesty held for her was so grand. Many years have passed, but the memories are yet vivid in my mind."
