Chapter 38 - First Meeting Xue Qinghe

The next day arrived.It was as if the events of last night had never happened. The commoners in Heaven Dou City were still going about their usual routines, hitting the streets, setting up stalls, or opening their shops. The incident in the suburbs had been suppressed by the royal family.Tang Chuan sat cross-legged on his bed, faint blue-gold spirit power surging constantly over his body. The Mysterious Heaven Skill was also circulating continuously. A blue-gold ring appeared behind him, and eight Eight Spider Lances, resembling crystal blades, floated in the air.From the outside, he looked like a deity at this moment, his divinity growing increasingly intense."Knock, knock!""Father, are you there?"Withdrawing everything into his body, Tang Chuan heard Tang San's voice outside the door and went straight to open it."Little San, is something the matter?""Father, someone just told me that the Pavilion Master of the Moon Pavilion has invited you to meet."Tang San did not hesitate and stated the matter directly."Moon Pavilion? Why is she looking for me?"Tang Chuan was also a bit confused. Tang Yuehua had nothing better to do; surely, she couldn't just be inviting him over for tea, right? Could it be because of Tang Hao?But since she knew he could easily defeat Tang Hao, it was even less likely that she wanted to deal with him. The only possibility was...Casting his gaze toward Tang San, Tang Chuan understood what the other party meant."Little San, you and Xiao Wu come with me.""Alright, Father!"Tang San bowed solemnly. Although he didn't know if he could be of any help in such a situation, since his father had said so, there must be a reason for it. He would unconditionally trust his father!He then trotted toward Xiao Wu's room. Seeing this, Tang Chuan pondered whether, if Tang Hao dared to come later, he should kill him directly or keep those two Spirit Bones.With these two Spirit Bones, his template progress could probably advance further.Before long, Tang San returned, pulling a freshly dressed Xiao Wu along with him.Now that they had clarified their feelings, they were becoming more open about it. However, as children, they couldn't do much—at most, holding hands or hugging.Between Tang San and Xiao Wu, besides revealing their identities, it seemed there was nothing else left."Let's go. When we get there, you must not leave my sight, understand?""Understood!"Nodding, Tang San and Xiao Wu obediently indicated that they understood.The three of them headed toward the Moon Pavilion.As a court etiquette academy, the Moon Pavilion was very well-located, situated almost in the most prosperous area of the city center of Heaven Dou City.Even so, not many people dared to approach it without authorization. As a place heavily focused on by the royal family, they naturally would not allow commoners to wander about freely.The several-story building had decor completely distinct from the surrounding architecture; it was antique, with a unique aristocratic flavor.The two large characters "Moon Pavilion" above the main entrance came into their view."This is the Moon Pavilion? Its owner must have a high status, right?""You could say that. After all, the children of the royal nobility come here to learn court etiquette, and even the current Crown Prince Xue Qinghe studies here."Hearing this, Tang San nodded. It seemed the Pavilion Master here had quite a lot of connections.To be able to let the Crown Prince enter to study, there must be a threshold. One would have to offer benefits to the Pavilion Master, and once the relationship was established, they could send their own children in to study.Getting close to the Crown Prince—not to mention gaining their friendship—even just being able to overhear some internal information would be excellent for one's own family.Just then, a sound of metal striking the ground rang out.Several people turned to look and saw two rows of Heaven Dou Empire soldiers clad in heavy armor; some held swords, while others carried parasols.The man at the lead wore a snow-white brocade robe. His appearance was handsome and gentle, his features soft and upright, and his demeanor carried a royal air. He truly looked like a wise and virtuous Crown Prince, and the aura around him was as cold as snow, elegant and restrained."How bold! Since you see the Crown Prince, why do you not kneel!"A soldier stepped forward, pointing his long sword directly at Tang Chuan, his tone very aggressive.Tang San and Xiao Wu subconsciously frowned; apparently, they hadn't expected the Crown Prince to appear.The soldier's words made a flash of murderous intent cross Tang San's eyes. This damned soldier was truly acting like a dog bullying others by relying on his master's power. Did he really think that just because he was standing next to the Crown Prince, he could insult his father, Tang Chuan?He really wanted to take the Bodhisattva's Tear and assassinate both him and this Crown Prince!Just as Tang San was secretly contemplating, Tang Chuan moved.He stepped forward and bowed, his tone unhurried as he said, "Excuse me, excuse me. I didn't expect it to be His Highness the Crown Prince traveling."Although his tone and actions were appropriate, Xue Qinghe did not see any respect from the other party.Examining Tang Chuan, his sea-blue long hair fluttered in the wind, and there seemed to be some kind of mark on his forehead, with a faint light flowing over it. A pair of blue eyes were like a calm ocean.Dressed in a white robe, he was as flawless as a deity, with faint blue-gold divine light lingering around him.Narrowing his eyes slightly, Xue Qinghe was very sure he hadn't misseen; something had indeed flashed on Tang Chuan's forehead. That was definitely a God Position trial!But what he didn't know was that once Tang Chuan broke through level 99, he wouldn't even need the God Position trial; he could directly become the Sea God.Tang Chuan's current template progress had already gained the favor of the Sea God Poseidon. It could be said that this God Position was almost within his grasp.Subsequently, Xue Qinghe looked at Tang San on the side. Seeing that the latter looked remarkably similar to Tang Chuan, he felt equally shocked inside.Just as Committee Member Meng Shenji had said, could it be that at this age, Tang Chuan already had such a grown son? You really can't judge a book by its cover!"Hehe, I observe that you have an extraordinary appearance and generous manners. Could you be the newly arrived team leader for the Heaven Dou Royal team, Tang Chuan?""I am Xue Qinghe, the current Crown Prince. My guard is ignorant and has offended you, Lord Tang Chuan. I hope you will forgive him. Why haven't you apologized yet?"After thinking for only a moment, Xue Qinghe stopped thinking about the God Position trial and instead intended to narrow the distance between them."Ah, yes, I'm sorry, My Lord! It was my dog eyes that failed to recognize your greatness!"The soldier didn't even need a reminder; upon hearing the two words "My Lord," he immediately knelt on both knees, his face behind the helmet full of terror.As a weak soldier, he couldn't even perceive the pressure radiating from Tang Chuan."Your Highness the Crown Prince, you are not bad."Tang Chuan's words carried a hint of profound meaning, but Xue Qinghe didn't pick up on it, assuming the other party was approving of his actions."It was my dullness. But may I ask, My Lord, why have you come to the Moon Pavilion today...?""The Pavilion Master of the Moon Pavilion invited me inside for a chat, but looking at this, it seems they have already closed their doors to guests?"As he spoke, Tang Chuan turned his head to look at the gate of the Moon Pavilion. The door, which was usually open, was now tightly shut, and even the steward who usually guarded the entrance was gone.
