Chapter 1090: Princess Consort!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was completely dark between heaven and earth. Only the Extreme God Sundial dazzled brightly with a holy light.
The light breeze blew over, and Chu Liuyue’s sleeves were blown up.
‘When she saw the incomplete pattern abruptly disappear from the Extreme God Sundial, the stone in her heart was finally put down. “Hu…”
Luckily—luckily, I stopped at the crucial moment! Chu Liuyue secretly felt lucky. The needle was just a step away from hitting ‘12!’ Luckily, I saved it in time—
If the crowd below knew of her thoughts, they would probably vomit three liters of blood. Everyone fought to make that needle go forward by even a step or two, yet she was afraid that it would continue and harshly stopped it.
Chu Liuyue retracted her gaze.
The light on the Extreme God Sundial gradually dimmed. Then, under the people’s shocked and dazed gazes, the Extreme God Sundial gradually disappeared into space.
‘The mountain peak was only left with the candles burning brightly, which reflected that woman’s figure.
Straight, slim, cool!
She turned around and jumped onto the bridge that was formed by the golden light.
Her steps were light and cool. In the blink of an eye, she had already returned to Tongshen Palace.
She jumped down from above.
Rong Xiu waved his sleeves, and the light turned into countless stars.
In the dark night, that woman seemed to come from endless light. She walked to Rong Xiu and suddenly smiled. “How is it? Is this result satisfactory?”
Rong Xiu stared at her with a deep gaze, and his thin lips slightly curled up as they slowly spread into a smile. “Of course—Yue’er is the best.”
Chu Liuyue’s eyes curved up, and she then discovered that the surroundings were silent.
She was dazed and looked at the crowd at the side. She then blinked in confusion when she saw them staring at her in shock.
Were they… stunned by that ’11? Chu Liuyue thought to herself.
But right at this moment, Lin Tianfeng suddenly muttered, “M-Ms. Dugu, y-your face—
Chu Liuyue’s heart skipped a beat as she immediately reached out and touched her face—it was smooth and silky.
That was… her own face!
Chu Liuyue widened her eyes slightly and glanced at Rong Xiu. She saw the latter holding in his smile as he gently asked, “Don’t you find it uncomfortable if you keep wearing that mask?”
My mask really fell!
What Chu Liuyue didn’t know was that when the Extreme God Sundial pointed to ’10,’ the mask on her face had already disappeared without a trace. However, all her attention was placed on the Extreme God Sundial at that time, so she did not notice it.
In this type of situation where her mask had abruptly fallen off, Chu Liuyue suddenly felt awkward.
“Ahem.” Chu Liuyue tried to hide it with a cough. “I-it’s fine…”
During this period of time, I’ve already gotten used to seeing people with that face.
Rong Xiu stretched out his hand and tidied her messy hair that the mountain wind had blown, his movements extremely gentle for once.
As he took care of the hair meticulously and preciously, he gazed at her as though he was looking at a rare treasure.
After a temporary silence, whispers could finally be heard from the crowd. “So this is Dugu Yue’s true appearance!”
“She’s beautiful, cool… really breathtaking…”
“Originally, I thought that Big Missy Jiang was already pretty enough. But with this as a comparison, Big Missy Jiang instantly pales…”
“She looks like that—it’s no wonder His Grace fell for her! Besides, her bloodline power is so strong!”
‘When they recovered their senses, quite a few people gasped in surprise.
Jiang Zhiyuan looked at the duo standing beside each other not far away.
‘When she saw that Dugu Yue’s level exceeded hers, more than half her heart was cold. At that time, the only comfort she could still give herself was that although Dugu Yue was outstanding in the other areas, she had an ordinary face. At the very least, she beat Dugu Yue in this aspect.
But now, she realized that she was very wrong!
Dugu Yue… actually looks like this!
She was wearing an ordinary red dress, and her hair was simply tied up. She didn’t have any makeup on, but she looked better than all the scenery in this world.
She stood at the side, and everything in the surroundings seemed to have lost its color.
The countless golden sparks dissipated behind her, reflecting her snow-white and crystal-like face. Her pair of black gem-like eyes seemed to have ripples within, and they hid countless stars. Her lips curled up, and her eyes curved.
This should be the appearance of a breathtaking beauty.
Even though she didn’t want to admit it, Jiang Zhiyuan knew clearly that she had lost to the other party.
Ever since she was young, she was outstanding in all aspects and was the best. This was the first time she had completely lost to another woman!
This impact was too intense, such that she was dazed at that moment. She even felt regret.
I shouldn’t have come! Rong Xiu specifically organized this magnificent banquet for her from start to end! He racked his brain for her and risked everything for her. Even when he knew that he would get many objections if this woman became the princess consort, he still did it!
As for me… From start to end, he didn’t even take another look at me. I’m just a joke.
Rong Xiu helped Chu Liuyue tidy her hair and clothes as his gaze stopped on her face for a moment. In actual fact, I haven’t seen this face in a very long time. If it weren’t for the fact that we’re still at Tongshen Palace and that there are so many people in the surroundings
Thinking of this, Rong Xiu wanted to settle these matters as soon as possible.
He turned to look at Respected Elder Yu Jing and the rest. “Yue’er can now be the princess consort without a doubt, right?”
“This…” Respected Elder Yu Jing and the rest exchanged glances. Originally, we rushed back to stop Rong Xiu, and the reasons and excuses we thought of earlier were all very legitimate. But who would’ve expected that Dugu Yue would successfully pass all of them?! If we openly go back on our words now,
it won’t be good.
“I didn’t know Ms. Dugu also has such top bloodline talent. Previously, we were really dumb not to see it. If we’ve offended you, Ms. Dugu, please forgive us.” Respected Elder Jing Chen reacted the fastest. After his shock, he quickly adjusted his attitude and expression as he spoke harmoniously. “But for
some reason, the bloodline totem on the Extreme God Sundial didn’t show itself completely… Ms. Dugu has such strong bloodline talent, so she must be extremely strong in her clan, right? I wonder… which clan is she exactly from?”
Upon hearing this, the present crowd looked at Chu Liuyue—this was what they were all curious about!
Chu Liuyue blinked and smiled. “I just came from an ordinary family outside the God Residence Realm. It’s not worth a mention.”
“Ms, Dugu, you still refuse to let us know of your identity at this time? If you’re not someone from a clan within the God Residence Realm, it’s impossible that such a level would be shown on the Extreme God Sundial!” said Respected Elder Yu Jing in frustration.
To him, there wasn’t much meaning for Chu Liuyue to deny it vehemently.
“I forgot to introduce her,” said Rong Xiu suddenly.. “This is my fiance from Country Yao Chen, who is also the future princess consort of the Sky-Cloud Empire—Shangguan Yue!”
