Reincarnated Rock Prince, you're saying this is Douluo Continent?

Chapter 95: Recognizing the Princess by Her Scent
In the main hall of Zhongli Mansion.

Zhongli, who was drinking tea, trembled slightly in the hand holding the teacup, feeling both amused and exasperated.

He gave Mora without expecting anything in return.

Unexpectedly, everyone misunderstood his intentions.

"Never mind... there might really be some deeper meaning behind what I did..."

Zhongli shook his head and murmured something.

In a short while, Xu Tianran and Jing Hongchen arrived at the hall.

Xu Tianran had heard a lot of information and stories about Zhongli, as well as descriptions of Zhongli's appearance and temperament.

But when he saw Zhongli in person, he was taken aback.

As the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, he had met many people and experienced many things.

He'd seen all kinds of people: flatterers, treacherous, hypocrites...

But he had never seen anyone like Zhongli who wore the word "invincible" on their face.

This is a handsome face with the marks of time etched on it. Every movement is natural and effortless. Even without any outward display of power, it exudes an intense sense of pressure.
"So this is the God of War..."

A glint of light flashed in Xu Tianran's eyes. He bowed respectfully to Zhong Li and said, "Xu Tianran greets the Martial God!"

"Thank you, Lord Martial God, for giving me a second chance at life! I will never forget it!"

The bow, performed at a 90-degree angle, represents Xu Tianran's attitude.

He was truly grateful to Zhongli for this.

Disability brings not only physical pain, but also psychological pain!
Those people may not say it to your face, but they've never stopped gossiping behind your back!
When he regained his legs and stood up again, those comments completely disappeared.

For Xu Tianran, Zhongli not only saved him as a person, but also saved his already distorted mind.

As a young man with ideals, ambitions, and aspirations, it's perfectly normal for his mind to become twisted after facing both physical and mental blows, leading him to stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

But things are different now; the not-yet-completely-distorted mind has been healed...

Zhongli waved his right hand, and an amber-colored energy appeared, helping Xu Tianran to his feet.

"It's just a matter of fate, Your Highness need not take it to heart."

Zhong Li remained expressionless and spoke calmly, as if he didn't care at all.

He may not care, but for the person involved, it's something they have to care about.

"Is this the magnanimity of the Martial God...?"

Xu Tianran sighed inwardly.

He once promised that whoever could cure his legs would be treated as an honored guest.

Yet no one could do such a thing.

Anyone who can do this will surely use it as leverage to exploit Xu Tianran for the rest of his life...

The Martial God replied casually: "It's just a matter of fate, no need to worry about it."

Hahaha……

God... truly a god!

No wonder he's the male god that Xu Tianran acknowledges!
Suddenly, Xu Tianran seemed to remember something and continued, "Martial God, I came in a hurry and only prepared some local specialties from my hometown. I hope you will accept them."

Xu Tianran did not mention the matter of being reborn again, but instead took out the gift, which included a storage soul tool.

This storage soul tool was mixed in with the "local specialties," and it's unclear whether Xu Tianran did it accidentally or intentionally.

Clearly, this storage soul tool is Xu Tianran's true sincerity!
Upon seeing this, Jing Hongchen's eyes darted around; clearly, he understood the intention. It was only under his guidance that Xu Tianran had purchased these "local specialties"!
That storage soul tool was also within Jing Hongchen's expectations, but he didn't know what was inside.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is thoughtful."

"Lord Martial God, you may call me Xu Tianran or Tianran, but Your Highness the Crown Prince is too much for me, it would be too much for me."

Xu Tianran cupped his hands in greeting and said with a serious expression.

This scene left Jing Hongchen somewhat taken aback. Xu Tianran had completely lost the aura of a ruler who dominated the world that he had in Mingdu, and he had also lost the demeanor that a person in a position of power should have.

He stood in front of Zhongli, as obedient as a primary school student standing in front of a teacher.

This made Jing Hongchen look at him with new respect.

After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Tianran and Jing Hongchen took their seats.

At that moment, the two frowned, a look of surprise and doubt flashing in their eyes.

Why are there three different fragrances in this hall?
Identifying the ingredients from the scent of perfume is quite expensive, and it's really difficult for anyone other than royalty to use it!
Just before their arrival, three women of high rank visited Lord Martial God.

Jing Hongchen is a titled Douluo, and his sense of smell is extremely keen.

As for Xu Tianran, his cultivation level was also quite high, not to mention that he was the Crown Prince of the Sun and Moon Clan.

He has studied a lot of things and is exceptionally sensitive to things like taste.

Although the three perfume scents were mixed together, he was still able to distinguish them by his skill.

"The Heavenly Soul Royal Family, the Fighting Spirit Royal Family, and the Star Luo Royal Family..."

"What brings the three kingdoms of Douluo together?"

Xu Tianran's thoughts were racing, his mind filled with questions.

Xu Tianran's study of perfume knowledge was not because he was neglecting his duties, but because such knowledge could bring him some useful information at certain times.

Nobility, which naturally includes members of the royal family, especially women.

The items they used were almost all specially supplied, that is, specially supplied to the royal family.

Perfume is naturally included in this.

Each country has different standards of appreciation, and the items used by members of the royal family also differ.

Under normal circumstances, frequently used items are rarely changed, which is also known as tradition...

Therefore, when Xu Tianran smelled these three scents, he guessed that members of the royal family of Douluo Three Kingdoms had visited Zhongli Mansion.

As for why everyone had come, Xu Tianran, as the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, was still somewhat worried.

After a moment's thought, Xu Tianran put the matter out of his mind and said, "Martial God, there are still six months until the Elite Tournament, a traditional event on Douluo Continent held once every five years."

"I wonder if Liyue is interested in participating? If so, the Sun Moon Empire is willing to provide Liyue with a spot in the competition!"

Hearing this, Zhongli was slightly taken aback.

The Douluo Three Kingdoms just mentioned this matter, and now the Sun Moon Empire is also coming?
It seems they have a very vivid memory of this so-called tradition!
“Previously, the princesses of the three kingdoms of Tianhun, Douling, and Xingluo came and mentioned this matter.”

Zhongli didn't mince words and stated frankly, "Liyue has accepted the special quota offered by the Three Kingdoms."

Xu Tianran and Jing Hongchen both showed expressions of sudden realization, especially the former, who breathed a sigh of relief while also feeling a little regretful.

Why didn't he arrive a day earlier, or even two hours earlier?
"What a pity, what a real pity!"

Xu Tianran thought to himself.

"Then congratulations, Lord Martial God! Liyue is a land of outstanding people and abundant resources, and it is sure to shine brightly."
