Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch 259's. Invite Princess Hong Xiao
Standing in the middle of the courtyard of the palace residence that King Hong Bei arranged for him, Zhang En momentarily began practicing the sword arts he had learned at the beginning while being trained by Elder Chao in the courtyard.
After all, this was the royal palace, as a guest, Zhang En did not have enough time to do closed door exercises to purify the divine dragon. With the seventeen stalks of the Dragon God Grass he had already obtained, Zhang En felt that it would take him a long time and could not wait for a day or two.
After he finished one round of training all his sword arts, Zhang En took out one create a dragon blood crystal stone and executed the Dragon Technique to absorb the abundant high quality energy contained within that blood crystal.
Zhang En's Dragon Technique had improved at an incredible speed, he had entered the sixth stage and was beginning to grasp the mid-sixth stage.
After Zhang En's Dragon Technique advanced to the seventh stage, the changes in the Dragon Qi in his body gradually grew purer and stronger, including his Demonic Dragon Physique and Wings.
The next morning, the sun was already shining brightly as Zhang En walked out of his room.
The moment Zhang En stepped out of the door, Princess Hong Xiao had already walked into the courtyard asking if Zhang En had time to go out looking at the royal city.
“Walk in town?” Zhang En looked at Princess Hong Xiao blankly.
Princess Hong Xiao's head lowered its head to hide her face, "I never went out and looked around the city for more than ten years."
Zhang En was speechless. Isn't his Senior Brother Hong Bei too strict with his own daughter.? No wonder at the time Zhang En was on his way to the Star Cloud Continent Princess Hong Xiao wanted to follow him and take a look.
"Ens. Alright" Finally Zhang En nodded.
Originally, Princess Hong Xiao was afraid that Zhang En would reject her invitation, but seeing Zhang En actually agree, her face blossomed and a beaming smile, even tiptoeing forward to kiss Zhang En's cheek.
Before Zhang En could react, Princess Hong Xiao who blushed in shame had already run away, her voice sounded, “Sister Zhang, thank you! I'll get ready !”
Seeing Princess Hong Xiao running away, Zhang En only realized. Shaking her head, her fingers traced the spot that Princess Hong Xiao kissed, there was still the scent of her lips still left behind.
This made Zhang En think of Lie Hue.
A short while later, Princess Hong Xiao who was ready to go back to meet Zhang En along with her two servants, Rou and Yue and was already standing in front of Zhang En.
Princess Hong Xiao wore a pastel blue long dress, her natural beauty was quite mesmerizing that people who saw her would definitely never be willing to take their eyes off.
"Sister Zhang, let's go." Seeing Zhang En looking at her in a slightly bewildered manner, Princess Hong Xiao urged her to leave immediately.
Zhang En could predict the situation when they were already on the road later, there were bound to be many small problems that he would face.
As Zhang En thought, when the four of them were already walking down the urban road, some large family disciples who had high confidence in their good looks approached them to build relationships. Zhang En could only take on the role of such a haughty young man and beat them up.
Of course, on their way this time around the city, how many times had Zhang En faced off against the young men who approached their group. However, a Yu Family disciple named Yu Zheng came to make trouble thinking that Zhang En was the bodyguard of Princess Hong Xiao and her two servants.
The two maids of Princess Hong Xiao covered their mouths as they stared at Yu Zheng, their eyes puzzling Yu Zheng at that moment.
Princess Hong Xiao frowned and a trace of anger flashed across her face. Before Zhang En had yet to act, Princess Hong Xiao's palm had struck Yu Zheng hard making him fly through the air with a somersault before falling to the ground.
"Sister Zhang, I ..." Princess Hong Xiao looked at Zhang En. It made his heart uneasy because Zhang En was humbled for being with him.
"It's okay." Zhang En shook his head, a faint smile crooked at the corner of his lips.
In the royal palace, hearing his subordinate's report, King Hong Bei looked at his empress, "This is the first time our daughter has actually hit someone !"
The empress simply smiled, replying, "Aren't I like that in the past when I was with you?"
King Hong Bei sighed softly.
"But we don't know how little brother Zhang feels about our daughter." Empress.
King HongbBei isn't worried about this, “If it's about that, it's a problem between them, there's not much we can do, but I know, I know, Junior sister must have a good impression on our daughter. Didn't we also start a relationship from a good impression?”
"M-mm, regarding the Black Crow Sect, what are they planning to do?" The empress suddenly changed the subject.
"They've hidden themselves completely this month and there's no sign of movement from them." King Hong Bei replied, but this calm situation made the unease in his heart grow stronger, it was like with calm before the storm came crashing down.
The day passed quickly.
The sunset at dusk reflects the light of the day and holds an inexplicable beauty.
After a day of accompanying Princess Hong Xiao, Zhang En finally returned to his residence. Upon news of Zhang En's return, King Hong Bei personally came to invite Zhang En to dinner together.
Seeing King Hong Bei coming directly to see him, Zhang En felt uneasy refusing.
“Stir, do you still need Dragon God Grass?” King Hong Bei suddenly turned to another topic.
Capturing the underlying meaning of his Senior Brother's words, Zhang En felt extremely pleased, "Does Senior Brother know where I can find more Dragon God Grass?"
King Hong Bei chuckled, “That's right... Several hundred years ago, I went to the Wind Eye Continent, the Dragon God Grass in the royal treasure room was collected from a place called the Poisonous Dragon Valley. Although I did not enter the deepest part of the Poisonous Dragon valley, I thought there should be some trunks inside the valley, even many. "
This is good news for Zhang En. He did not expect that King Hong Bei's Dragon God Grass was from the Poisonous Dragon Valley that existed in the Wind Eye Continent.
“But, the air in the valley was filled with poison, stronger poison could render even a Heavenly God Realm expert helpless. Not to mention, the land was very fertile and poisonous insects and animals were plentiful there, some of them had great strength. ” King Hong Bei asked again, "Does Brother Zhang really want to go there ?"
