"Princess, I'm sorry!"

The old man, clutching his chest, sat back down next to Helian Zhaoyue and spoke with shame.

He truly hadn't expected that this seemingly pampered princess would possess such terrifying cultivation strength!

After the actual exchange of blows, he had a vague feeling that this princess was probably holding back!

Otherwise, he will lose... even faster!

"It's alright!"

Although Helian Zhaoyue was still resentful, she couldn't really say anything about it.

After all, the rules are already set out in the open; what to compete against is up to the person in charge.

Moreover, the eldest princess did not cheat this time, nor did she hire anyone to fight for her; she won fair and square by relying on her own strength.

They lost, and they had no choice but to accept it!

"so……"

Teng Zixiu, standing nearby, grew increasingly angry and couldn't help but speak up: "We've inexplicably helped Jiang Xiaobai and accused four people!"

"In the end... you didn't even get a Hidden Edge Token?"

"Stop talking!"

Helian Zhaoyue's chest heaved slightly.

She was already quite upset, and Teng Zixiu's words only made her angrier!

Thinking of this, Helian Zhaoyue couldn't help but glare at Jiang Xiaobai again.

I'm so angry!

Ok?

Jiang Xiaobai noticed this and his smile immediately brightened. He picked up his wine glass and gestured to Helian Zhaoyue.

"Son of a bitch!"

Helian Zhaoyue took a deep breath.

Sooner or later, she'll make Jiang Xiaobai suffer!

……

Time passed little by little.

The night grew deeper and deeper.

The bet made at the Hidden Edge Banquet is still ongoing.

However, as fewer and fewer people participated, the pace gradually slowed down.

The number of Concealed Tokens on the Princess's desk eventually stopped at eight.

Jiang Xiaobai sat there, glancing at the number of people, his expression slightly strange.

In other words, the princess won back five coins from the three he lent out at the beginning!

This number is actually quite large.

"If no one continues..."

At this moment, the eldest princess swept her gaze across the entire room and said calmly, "Then I will accept these eight Concealed Edge Tokens!"

After speaking, the eldest princess picked up the eight Concealed Tokens from the table and handed them to the maid beside her: "Go and give them to Prince Jiang!"

The maid took it with both hands and walked towards Jiang Xiaobai.

At this moment, the eldest princess looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said, "Young Master Jiang, you borrowed three of my Concealed Edge Tokens before!"

"Now that I've won five, I'll give them all to you. Consider it... my reward!"

hiss!

Tang Ningshuang gasped.

No, in front of so many people, you're not even going to put on an act?

Those martial arts figures present, witnessing this scene, naturally had expressions that were more interesting than the last.

Those who lost the Hidden Edge Order to the Princess were especially heartbroken.

So all that hard work they did here was for Jiang Xiaobai?

Helian Zhaoyue sat there, and after seeing this scene, she simply closed her eyes again.

I'm not watching anymore!

Looking again, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to resist rushing up and biting someone!

Teng Zixiu also looked resentful.

I was originally thinking that even if I couldn't get too many at today's Hidden Edge Banquet, it would be good to get one or two.

As a result, he didn't get the Hidden Edge Token and ended up with a lot of anger!

You can only imagine what it tasted like!

"Thank you, Princess!"

Jiang Xiaobai, on the other hand, was not polite at all.

After obtaining the eight Concealed Edge Tokens, he happily put them all away.

The eldest princess watched with a faint smile, then looked back at the crowd: "Is there anyone else willing to continue as host?"

"If not, then today's duel between Hidden Edge and Vanguard ends here!"

"I!"

As soon as the princess finished speaking, Jiang Xiaobai raised his hand and said, "I now have twenty-one!"

"Anyone want to have another match with me? The winner gets everything!"

With that, Jiang Xiaobai looked at Helian Zhaoyue with a smile and said, "Your Highness, would you like to do it again!"

"Come on, you stinky head!"

Looking at Jiang Xiaobai's irritating expression, Helian Zhaoyue gritted her teeth and whispered, "Teng Zixiu, think of something!"

"I want to kill this bastard!"

"..."

Teng Zixiu wore a bitter smile.

Method?

After they entered Beijing, how many solutions did they come up with?

But in the end, every single time Jiang Xiaobai turns the tables and makes them run around in circles.

Hearing the commotion, the eldest princess slightly curled the corners of her lips and continued, "Since no one else is participating, let's end today's duel between Cangfeng and Shine."

"From now on, everyone can eat and drink whatever they want!"

"All-you-can-drink!"

After he finished speaking, the people present smiled helplessly and then began to eat and drink.

The eldest princess glanced at the woman in the white dress beside her and said, "Senior sister, he now has twenty-one Hidden Edge Tokens!"

"Is that enough according to the rules?"

"Um!"

The woman in the white dress nodded gently.

After reading it, the eldest princess's smile became noticeably wider.

The woman in the white dress remained silent, her gaze fixed on the third musical score on the table.

"Cooling Down"...

The banquet for those who conceal their talents has not yet truly ended.

But the bet was over, and she had been watching this third piece of music for a while now.

The melody is wonderful, especially the subtle sadness it conveys; you can feel it just by looking at the sheet music.

only……

The woman in the white dress frowned slightly.

She couldn't quite understand why Jiang Xiaobai had specifically said that this piece would be played for everyone present after the Hidden Edge Banquet.

With a sense of doubt, the woman in the white dress slowly placed her hands on the strings.

Clang!

A melody from a zither began to play.

The group, who had been preparing to continue drinking and chatting, all looked up.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaobai raised an eyebrow slightly, then smiled and looked at Helian Zhaoyue, saying, "Princess, this song is dedicated to you!"

Helian Zhaoyue was slightly taken aback, still somewhat puzzled.

But as I listened to that song, my eyes involuntarily welled up with tears.

Yes, she thought of all the grievances she had suffered along the way.

Waaah, you bastard!

……

at the same time.

In another courtyard of the Princess's residence, Xiao Qingxiu's face was pale.

He, the dignified young prince of the Eighth Prince's Mansion, was actually taken hostage!

If this gets out, where will he put his face?

"Jiang Xiaobai!"

Xiao Qingxiu grew angrier the more he thought about it, his fists clenching so tightly they cracked.

But just then...

Clang...

Faint, indistinct music drifted over from afar.

Ok?

Xiao Qingxiu paused for a moment.

Listening to that melody, for some reason, the anger that had filled me gradually gave way to a strange, indescribable bitterness.

The more I listened, the more upset I became, and... I even suddenly felt like crying!

Xiao Qingxiu's expression gradually froze.

Why is this piece of music so perfectly suited to his current state of mind?

The Hidden Edge Token is gone, the gold has been lost, and the calligraphy and paintings have been given away.

In the end, even the other guys got locked up!!

and many more!

Xiao Qingxiu suddenly remembered something; Jiang Xiaobai seemed to have mentioned something like that when he was composing the music before…

The third piece will be played after we finish!

So, this bastard was waiting here all along?!

"Jiang! Xiao! Bai!"

Beside him, the three Li brothers looked grim.

Especially when listening to the continuous melody in the distance, and thinking about what happened today.

They only have one feeling.

hate it!

I fucking hate it!!
