Chapter 679: Control the Emperor and Command the Nobles (2)

Pei Yuan was well aware that if he refused to cooperate, his and Prince Long Yue’s safety would not be guaranteed. Besides, it would be unwise to allow Shen Yanxiao to confront the Emperor. When the five great aristocrat families cooperated, not even the Emperor could win.

Pei Yuan heaved a sigh. “I will do as you tell me. I just hope you can keep your promise and not treat Prince Long Yue unfairly.”

Those who adapt their actions to the times are wise. Shen Yanxiao preferred this kind of wise man.

“Do not worry. I always walk the talk.”

“I hope so.” There was nothing Pei Yuan could do. He regretted entering the Forsaken Land and for displaying his arrogance earlier. He had thought that he would have nothing to worry about in Sun Never Sets with White Marsh beside him. Now, he found those previous thoughts ridiculous.

“Good. Then, State Teacher Pei Yuan and Prince Long Yue, please enjoy your meal. State teacher, please also inform the soldiers that have come with you about the situation. Otherwise, I do not mind killing them all.” Shen Yanxiao let out a sweet smile, turned around, and left with her five friends.

The eight mythical beasts withdrew as their masters left as well.

Pei Yuan was finally able to breathe after Shen Yanxiao was gone.

“State teacher.” Long Yue looked awful. Just now, he dared not to even utter a single word, as if Shen Yanxiao had strangled him with her awe-inspiring words.

She was such a beautiful lady. Why would she give people the feeling that she was a devil?”

“Your Highness, do not panic. I will risk my life to protect you, Your Highness.” Pei Yuan looked at Long Yue with shame. He felt unworthy of his status as a state teacher since he could not even guarantee the safety of the prince.

The thought of them living in such a sinister place from now on depressed Pei Yuan. Sun Never Sets was filled with demons. No matter how he looked at it, Shen Yanxiao partnering with demons was shocking. At that moment, as far as Pei Yuan could tell, Shen Yanxiao was basically a demon.

He could only pray that one day in the future, he could find the chance to escape with Long Yue.

Long Yue nodded. He was the prince but he was still young. Faced with such a drastic change in situation, he had a difficult time adjusting. He had to count on Pei Yuan most of the time.

At the same time, he was struggling within. He had seen with his own eyes how cold Shen Yanxiao was and yet, he could not erase her pretty image from his heart.

“Alas, god bless the Longxuan Empire.” Pei Yuan heaved a heavy sigh with sadness obvious in his eyes.

...

After Shen Yanxiao was out of Pei Yuan’s sight, her expressions returned back to normal. Looking at the five speechless jerks behind her, she said with a laugh, “What is it?”

“Well, Xiaoxiao, it is today that I find out that you are incredibly bold.” Yan Yu looked at Shen Yanxiao and exclaimed.

“You abducted a prince of a country and used violence to threaten the state teacher. In the centuries of history of the Longxuan Empire, you must be the only one with the courage to do such a feat.” Yang Xi shared his comment with a complicated look.

“Are you trying to occupy the city to replace the king?” There was some strange light of excitement glistening in the depths of Tang Nazhi’s eyes.
