“The estimated time is too long. The route needs to be completed within a year.” If the time limit set by Master Xiao was misses, then even if a route was established in the future, it would be meaningless.

He Di’s mouth formed a little smile, and he playfully raised his eyebrows as he carefully observed the other man’s overbearing manner.

The man’s beautiful temperament stimulated his appetite. He was out of tune with his surroundings, standing upright like a flagpole that could not be taken down by wind or erosion. As long as he stood there, the air would be clean of any impurities and only his flavour would be left.

“Once the route for the dual luminous sand has been opened, it will bring a large profit for both of our sides. The Xiao Family is skilled when it comes to operating a business in a moral and outstanding manner. Is there a possibility that Your Highness can speed up the process?” Zi Yan endured He Di’s rude gaze, and with a serious expression, said, “On behalf of my king and Duke Ming, I will first extend our gratitude for Your Highness.”

“Has your injury healed?”

Zi Yan slightly stiffened. The fluctuation in his black pupils was not missed by He Di’s keen vision.

A moment later…

“I am grateful for the prince’s concern. It has already healed.”

He Di chuckled and said, “Let me have a look.”

Zi Yan suddenly went silent.

A boldly dressed and partially exposed beauty was leaning against He Di’s side behaving flirtatiously while listening to their conversation. She understood the underlying meaning of their talk, but kept her lips closed while continuing to eat and laugh charmingly.

The candle lights glowing in all directions within the room were suddenly covered by a layer of obscurity, and an evil atmosphere enveloped the surroundings.

“What? Did I make the honourable emissary embarrassed? You know, my wound has already healed.” He Di placed his fingertips on his bare shoulder. The scar on his tanned skin did not look hideous, but rather, the shallow colour resembled a mark left behind by a pen. “I do not mind you appreciating the masterpiece that your own hands carved.”

The gaze Zi Yan looked at He Di with turned from silent restraint into fearless incisiveness.

“Indeed, the man who stabbed Your Highness was me. If the prince wishes to retaliate, a letter can be written to Duke Ming telling him to revoke my qualifications as emissary and to choose another representative.” Zi Yan continued, “Like this, even if Your Highness’ desire is to kill me, the opportunity for a profitable business transaction will not be missed.”

He seems to be incredibly calm, as if his mind is already set.

It’s slightly suspicious.

“My my… such a loyal emissary. Your bravery and loyalty would perhaps move others,” He Di smiled disdainfully, “but against me, it is completely useless.” His hand, which had been resting comfortably on a soft pillow, moved to take something out. A scroll appeared and was casually opened. The soft silk cloth, that was as light as a feather, exposed neat and delicate rows of characters written with ink. It was the peace treaty.

Before Zi Yan’s face, the arm holding the treaty stretched towards a candle’s vigorous flame.

In He Di’s eyes, the important treaty regarding the sand was worthless garbage. He casually held it over the flame. Any careless slip of the hand and the piece of silk would fall into the flame and burn to ashes.

Zi Yan’s firm and upright posture abruptly stiffened.

“This Prince does not like to deal with too much nonsense.” He Di acted leisurely, but his smile was laden with threats despite saying each and every word in a light manner. “Let me see your wound.”

Zi Yan was a little unwilling to look directly at his face.

He untied the knot of his belt and opened the front lapel of his garments.

“No.” He Di laughed and demanded, “Take the entire top off. I want to have a proper look.”

He liked those eyes.

The ones that dared to look straight at him with not a hint of fear. They were tough like an exceptionally rare piece of black jade.

He even wanted to lick those two black pupils wantonly.

Zi Yan’s movements showed no signs of concern.

There was no bashful expression as he took off his top and cast it aside. “Your Highness has now seen it.” His voice contained no emotional fluctuations, resonating loudly and clearly.

Years of training had made his body well proportioned.

He Di’s eyes were attracted to the scar below his prominent collarbone, close to the heart. He had his entire being hooked to the pale colour of the young body.

Like a hungry wolf that suddenly caught a scent of blood, He Di could feel his body tighten up, everything condensing and forming a desire that was suffocating. His greedy eyes looked as if he was seeing the world’s most delicious food.

However, a clever wolf will first test for poison before biting into his prey. He Di pushed the beauty at his side towards Zi Yan, and with a cold smile, ordered, “Go. Properly entertain the honourable emissary.”

The beauty remained stationary for a second before understanding his meaning. Once again showing her coquettish and alluring smile, she ambiguously approached Zi Yan.

With his clavicle being touched by rosy fingertips, Zi Yan’s body slightly startled, and he reflexively pushed her away towards the soft pillows.

“Thank you, Your Highness, for the kindness. But we, who are committed martial artists, do not indulge ourselves in the pleasure of women.” Towards He Di’s evil gaze, Zi Yan never once evaded them, always meeting them upfront.

He Di laughed and asked, “Then… how about men?”

“Men are also not an option.”

“Hahahaha. Then, my dear emissary, do not tell me you have never engaged in any pleasurable actions with anyone before?” The prince’s melodious laughter once again rang loudly.

His words were becoming more and more undisguised.

Zi Yan’s bright eyes firmly fixed on him, his expression neither contemptuous nor humiliated as he answered in a profound tone. “Correct… so what?”

He Di’s smile suddenly froze.

The room immediately fell silent.

Although he knew the man in front of him was an upright person, he never would have thought that the person had never been touched.

A virtuous man!

Are all the women around him blind?

As long as he is a man, at least one or two would have tried to take a bite, right?
