The sound of wings flying through the void floated high in the sky.
With a flash of green light, Lin Ze landed in front of a manor with Evie in his arms.
After landing, Lin Ze released his hold on Ivie's waist.
The girl stood up straight with a slightly red face, feeling a sense of loss inexplicably in her heart. She was vaguely reluctant to let go of the warm and generous embrace just now.
But soon, she calmed down her inner turmoil, smoothed her hair around her ears, pointed to the manor and said:
"His Royal Highness Ailei is waiting for you inside."
After saying that, he took the lead and walked inside.
Lin Ze smiled slightly and stepped to follow.
The manor was shrouded in darkness at night, with only the faint glow of fire in the distance.
But with the bright moonlight, I didn't worry that I couldn't see the road clearly.
Along the cobblestone path, Lin Ze and Iwei walked side by side towards the depths of the manor.
There was no one around, and it was quiet except for the footsteps of the two people walking.
But Lin Ze's perception was so sharp now that he noticed no less than ten secret whistles hidden in every corner along the way.
The breath of each one is so weak that it is almost undetectable, and even the breathing is only done after a long interval. They are obviously good at lurking and hiding!
This manor seems defenseless, but in fact it is extremely well guarded!
It's probably a secret stronghold of the Second Princess's forces on the outskirts of the royal city!
After walking all the way, the two of them arrived at a double-story building in a short time.
Pushing open the door on the first floor, the light from behind the door immediately dispelled the surrounding darkness.
Lin Ze looked up and saw a spacious and bright living room.
There are not many decorations in the living room, which looks a bit simple based on the luxurious habits of the aristocracy.
But it was kept very clean and everything looked tidy.
There is a pair of sofas and coffee tables in the center of the living room.
Various snacks and steaming black tea are already placed on the coffee table.
But these are not the main points that attract Lin Ze's attention.
From the moment he entered the living room, his eyes were attracted by the figure standing up from the sofa.
That was a girl in her twenties.
Long dark brown hair hangs down from her ivory neck.
Skin as white as snow.
Lips as pink as cherry blossoms.
Her impeccably refined facial features are elegant and calm.
The night-like long skirt with a floor-length skirt tightly cinched her slender waist and outlined her plump curves.
Bathed in the light, it has the elegance and noble beauty of a medieval aristocrat.
All this makes the girl look like an unearthly and beautiful phantom.
Her eyes fell on Lin Ze who came in. With a gentle smile, the girl took a few steps forward lightly, slightly lifted the skirts on both sides, and made a noble curtsey.
"This is our first meeting, Your Excellency Lin Ze. Thank you for agreeing to my invitation to meet!"
Obvious.
The ridiculously beautiful girl in front of me is Ailei, the second princess of the Beast Spirit Empire.
Lin Ze suppressed the surprise in his eyes and bowed slightly in return.
"It's an honor to meet you, Your Highness Ailei!"
"Please take a seat, Your Excellency Lin Ze."
Ai Lei stretched out her hand and guided her towards the sofa in the center of the living room.
Lin Ze nodded happily.
The two then sat down facing each other on the sofa.
Evie consciously left the living room.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin Ze, it was my poor arrangements that caused you to be disturbed on the way here. I deeply apologize for this!"
After sitting down, Ailei took the initiative to mention the ambush and attack by the Blood Crystal Cult.
Apparently, on the way here, Evie had already informed Airei of what had just happened in some way.
In response, Lin Ze just smiled faintly and shook his head indifferently.
"They are just a bunch of clowns. Your Highness does not need to blame himself for this."
What happened has happened, and Lin Ze will not blame others for it.
This was not the original intention of the Second Princess. They were also the victims of this ambush.
Furthermore.
Lin Ze did not suffer any loss either.
Not only did he obtain two precious rare items, the Void Rune Sculpture and the Scarlet Collection, but he also learned information about the beast spirit crystal.
If every ambush and assassination could yield such rewards, he would only wish to encounter him more times!
"Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Excellency Lin Ze."
Ai Lei took a deep look at Lin Ze.
The only one who can regard the dignified Blood Crystal Cult Master and the six priests as clowns is the young beastmaster in front of him!
When she learned from Evie that Lin Ze single-handedly killed Antoine and six priests, you can imagine her inner shock!
Even the evaluation of Lin Ze in my heart has been further improved!
I am more and more convinced that my next decision is correct!
After revealing this matter, the two began to chat.
As the conversation progressed, the barriers between the two parties due to unfamiliarity quickly diminished.
The atmosphere gradually became relaxed and pleasant.
Lin Ze had to admit that Her Royal Highness the Princess had a special affinity that could quickly make people like her and lower their defensiveness.
This may be the so-called personality charm!
In a country with a feudal aristocratic system like the Beast Spirit Empire, the status of women is far inferior to that of men, and they are more in a dominated position.
Even female members of the royal family are not immune to the influence of this trend.
So.
In the struggle for the throne, female royal members are naturally discriminated against and are in a relatively disadvantaged position compared to male royal members.
Under such circumstances, Ailei was still able to gain a lot of support, gather her own forces around her, and even gain the upper hand in the competition with the eldest prince. This is evident from her skill and charisma!
This His Highness Ai Lei is not only a member of the royal family, but also has that extremely beautiful appearance!
After a while.
Ailei took a sip of black tea, put down the cup, and suddenly changed the topic and said softly:
"I heard from Evie that Your Excellency Lin Ze is very interested in spirit beast eggs?"
"indeed so."
Lin Ze nodded calmly.
On the way here, while chatting with Evie, Lin Ze once mentioned this topic.
Of course, his inner intention was to pass on this information to Ai Lei through Evie.
In order to get some help from Elle.
With the assistance of the Second Princess, the plan to find suitable spirit beast eggs will surely go much smoother.
as expected.
Then Ailei smiled and said:
"In that case, I think I should be able to help Mr. Lin Ze with a little help."
"The Imperial City has the largest spirit beast breeding manor in the entire empire, where the most complete variety of spirit beast eggs in the empire are stored. If Lin Ze needs it, I can arrange for someone to take you into the manor to visit for a few days."
Lin Ze's eyes lit up and he agreed without saying a word.
"Then please trouble Your Highness!"
After a pause, a meaningful light flashed in his eyes and he smiled:
"There is a saying in our federation called reciprocating a favor. Your Highness has done me a big favor. I can't just accept His Highness's help shamelessly without doing anything. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help His Highness?"
