Chapter 1091: Holy Ring

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Quite a few people in the Sky-Cloud Empire had heard of Country Yao Chen. This was because His Grace—Rong Xiu’s birth mother had secretly married Country Yao Chen’s emperor back then.

Everyone in the Sky-Cloud Empire knew of his identity as Country Yao Chen’s Seventh Prince.

All of these incidents were spread far and wide when Rong Xiu was found by them back then; almost everybody knew about it. This was also the reason why they thought of Rong Xiu as the clan’s humiliation all this while.

If the Extreme God Sundial hadn’t automatically appeared when he first arrived on the mountain and stood in front of Jishen Palace—which tested and showed his shocking bloodline talent—he would’ve very possibly been executed in front of the Sky-Cloud Empire’s many ancestral plaques.

All these years, Rong Xiu’s power in the entire Sky-Cloud Empire grew increasingly greater as his cultivation level kept improving, With that, the masses gradually stopped bringing it up.

And this time, it was the first time Rong Xiu willingly brought it up. His motive was known without speaking—he wanted Chu Liuyue to be the princess consort!

Respected Elder Yu Jing and the rest were first stunned; then, they exchanged glances and furrowed their brows tightly. According to His Grace, this Dugu… No, this Shangguan Yue really has an ordinary background? But how can the Extreme God Sundial’s reaction be explained? This has never happened

before!

“Your Highness, it’s really weird that Ms. Shangguan has been tested to have an extremely strong bloodline talent of ‘11’ even though she’s from outside the God Residence Realm

“Tm also considered to be from ‘outside the God Residence Realm’ to a certain extent, but didn’t I get ‘11′ too? Respected Elders, if you keep talking about this again and again, doesn’t it mean that you have the same attitude toward my identity?” Rong Xiu interrupted Respected Elder Yu Jing’s words and

spoke lightly.

“wouldn’t dare!” Respected Elder Yu Jing’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately denied it. Even if we think so in our hearts, how can we say this out loud? Besides, Rong Xiu as an ‘outsider’ has the top bloodline talent in thousands of years in the Sky-Cloud Empire! We have to respect him!

36 Respected Elder Ming smiled and said, “Yue’er Girlie, you’re His Grace’s Princess Consort from today onward!”

Respected Elder Yu Jing was hesitant with his words, and Respected Elder Jing Chen glanced at him.

36 Respected Elder Ming had a distinguished status and was one of the most experienced elders amongst the crowd. Even Respected Elder Tong Chuan had to respect him, let alone the others.

Once he said that, the surrounding people couldn’t even retort at all. They clearly want to be done with this today. If anybody disagrees, they will be openly going against His Grace and 36 Respected Elder Ming! We really can’t act impulsively.

Respected Elder Yu Jing took a deep breath in and swallowed his remaining words.

Respected Elder Jing Chen controlled his expression pretty well as he bowed slightly. “Jing Chen greets Princess Consort!”

Seeing him do this, Respected Elder Yu Jing and Respected Elder Shi Kaiyan could only follow. “Greetings, Princess Consort!”

The surrounding crowd was still stunned at this moment. J-it was set just like that?! Even the respected elders have openly acknowledged this person’s status? So—

“Congratulations, His Grace, Princess Consort.” A voice suddenly came out from the silent crowd. Lin Zhifei was the one who stood up and bowed first.

This voice finally made the crowd react, and almost everyone spoke in unison and bowed respectfully. “Congratulations, His Grace, Princess Consort.”

“It’s… settled just like this?” Chu Liuyue glanced at Rong Xiu. It seems a tad too simple?

Rong Xiu raised his sharp brows slightly as he chuckled lowly and suddenly held her hand.

Chu Liuyue’s hand had a traditional Cosmic Ring.

He gently brushed the surface of it, and that layer on the ring suddenly faded away as a sparkling golden light dazzled.

Chu Liuyue then saw that the ring was engraved with the Sky-Cloud Empire’s totem! She was dazed slightly before suddenly understanding something in her heart.

“The holy ring?!” 36 Respected Elder Ming was standing nearby and saw the ring on her hand at first glance. He couldn’t help but gasp.

Upon hearing this, the crowd looked stunned. The holy ring is actually on her hand?!

Rong Xiu explained, “The holy ring is a symbol of the Sky-Cloud Empire’s His Grace identity, and it’s also an heirloom to be passed onto the princess consorts.”

Chu Liuyue dazedly said, “So… You gave it to me so early on?”

Rong Xiu chuckled softly. His eyes were gentle but undeniably distinguished and domineering. “It’ll be yours anyway, so why does it matter if I give it to you earlier or later?”

Jiang Zhiyuan turned around to leave.

Jiang Hetian hurriedly chased after her. “Zhiyuan? Zhiyuan!”

After chasing a few steps, he suddenly stood still and tured back to glance at Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue. His expression was extremely complicated—like it contained anger and some sort of vengeance. “Your Highness, you’re really devoted to Ms. Shangguan! It turns out that my Fairy Water Mound isn’t

good enough for you! I’ll leave right now! In the future, I hope the two of you can receive the clan leader’s blessings and live together until you get old!”

Who is he using the clan leader to threaten? Rong Xiu’s lips curled up in a distinguished and cool manner. “You don’t have to worry about this, Master Jiang. Thank you for your blessings.”

Jiang Hetian was enraged as he whipped his sleeves and directly left.

The remaining people from Fairy Water Mound also hurriedly left and bade farewell.

Quite a few people secretly exchanged glances. Shangguan Yue is the princess consort now. Fairy Water Mound probably won’t let it go so easily… especially when Jiang Zhiyuan was originally the best candidate the clan leader wanted the princess consort to be. There will be more fights later on!

However, Rong Xiu didn’t seem to care about this as he glanced at the sky. “It’s getting late. Everyone, you’re dismissed! We’ll settle the wedding date another day, and I hope you’ll come over then.”

Then, he turned around and gazed at Chu Liuyue. “Yue’er, it has been very hard on you during the entire journey. Do you want to go and rest?”

Chu Liuyue paused and gradually smiled. “Okay, but I haven’t seen Your Highness in a while, and I miss you so. Do you have time to reminisce about the past with me first?”

Rong Xiu raised his brows slightly. “Whatever you say.”

Jishen Palace, His Grace’s bedroom.

Yu Mo and Yan Qing stood guard outside the palace.

After busying themselves for one day and one night, the two of them were already very exhausted. However, they didn’t have any sleepy intentions at all. Instead, they felt extra energized as they focused on guarding.

Even though they couldn’t see or hear anything from here, they looked inside from time to time as if they were afraid that something would happen.

After waiting for quite some time, Yu Mo finally couldn’t help but nudge Yan Qing. He softly asked, “Hey, why do you think there’s no sound inside after so long?”

Originally, I thought that Princess Consort would fight with His Highness. After having the truth hidden from them for so long, who wouldn’t be angry?

“Could it be that Princess Consort was finally touched by His Highness’s efforts, so—”

Yan Qing glanced at him silently and with much contempt. “If your brain can’t be used, you can donate it.”

Yu Mo was immediately displeased. “Why are you scolding me?! Am I not thinking for His Highness and Princess Consort?!”

Yan Qing turned around to take a look.. “You should eat more vegetarian meals and pray to accumulate good deeds for Master!”
