Tea Fragrance Fills the Starry Sky [Rebirth]

As soon as Yu Shengze's words came out of his mouth, the already quiet banquet hall fell silent.

The second prince Yu Wenbin quietly withdrew his stepped foot, the corner of his mouth raised involuntarily, a sharp gaze came over, he turned his head sideways, and met the visiting gaze of the eldest prince Yu Hongchi.Yu Wenbin turned his head nonchalantly, but he didn't see Meng Jiayi's sullen expression beside him for a moment.

Duan Chu didn't notice any abnormality in the hall at all, all his attention was attracted by Yu Shengze's words, his palms were wet with sweat, and his heart was beating irregularly.He looked sideways at Yu Shengze, met those eyes full of affection, and couldn't help but frowned.

Yu Kaifeng, who has always been calm, was obviously stunned for a while, and looked carefully at the two people who were tender and affectionate. For some reason, he immediately went to see Luisa's reaction.Seeing that the corner of her mouth was raised, showing a happy and proud expression, Yu Kaifeng's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked back calmly.

He suddenly changed from his previous majesty and arrogance, looked at his youngest son and said gently: "Really? If you can find a lover who will be with you forever, you have to cherish it!"

Seeing Luisa's cracked and stiff smile from the corner of the eye, Yu Kaifeng raised his lips in an unclear manner.

"No!" Without waiting for Yu Shengze and Duan Chu to react, the stunning beauty who had been standing beside Luisa suddenly spoke out, moved quickly, and knelt down in front of Yu Kaifeng.

"Your Majesty, Queen, Duan Chu is just a pact with low spiritual strength. Even if he is a perfect match, he will not be able to help His Highness the Ninth Prince. How can the prince and Zhengjun make an appointment just by making a pact. Gu Lian thinks so Do not lose to Duan Chu, I implore Your Majesty and Queen to give Gu Lian a chance to be the Ninth Highness's Concubine!"

The banquet hall, which was originally quiet, was like a stone being thrown into a calm lake, arousing discussions at various levels.Even the majesty of the royal family could not suppress the curiosity of these guests.Except for a few people who were jealous of Duan Chu getting the Ninth Prince's love, most of them were in the mood of looking forward to a good show.

Although Duan Chu is an incumbent with extraordinary talent in tea, the family naturally has no shortage of high-level incumbents who can participate in palace banquets.Unless Duan Chu can extract the potion that is effective for high-level fighters, he will be attached to the Ninth Prince in the eyes of these noble patriarchs and top fighters.

The woman in front of her, who called herself Gu Lian, dared to provocate in public, and aimed directly at the position of the Ninth Prince and Concubine. She was so brash, and she was naturally happy to watch the show. The only ones who were really worried were Chu Hua and Duan Hua, the third wife of the Duan family. With Duan Hanlei.

Duan Chu raised his eyebrows, and finally knew the reason for everything weird today.He pursed his lips, waiting for Yu Kaifeng's reaction.

Yu Shengze didn't have this patience, he just had a straight temper, the strangeness of the brothers and the secret confrontation just now were enough for him to guess the hidden truth.He just looked at Duan Chu, and said: "Xiao Chu, don't pay attention to that lunatic. Now that you have met my father and queen mother, the promotion banquet is over, and I will take you back to the bedroom to rest."

Duan Chu held back his smile, but unconsciously shook Yu Shengze's hand.

The others couldn't hold back their laughter, especially Yu Qinghan, who laughed the loudest, with her petite body leaning forward and backward, and Yu Hongchi's face was ashen when she was angry, but she still laughed unconsciously while protesting: "Hahaha, nine What Uncle Huang said is not bad at all, but it’s still early to rest, didn’t you say that you have to deal with the nine-point green sand beast, I’ll go too!”

The guests were stunned by the scene in front of them. Louisa covered her mouth with one hand, twisted her body slightly, and quietly clenched and loosened her other hand. There was a smile in her eyes, and she didn't realize that she was being held by the superior Yu Kaifeng saw them all.

Gu Lian's beautiful eyes widened, and an expression of disbelief appeared on her elegant and refined face.

"His Royal Highness, you, how can you say that!" Gu Lian shook her body in shock, knelt on the ground and straightened her back, introducing herself unwillingly: "I am a super S-rank contractor, and I have the talent for making energy stones." No one can match it. And you don't have to worry about Duan Chu stopping the spiritual power counseling because of unwillingness, my spiritual power compatibility with you can reach a high level, and the spiritual power counseling before the ninth level will definitely not be affected."

She paused for a moment, then took out a box and held it in her hand as if she was in a desperate situation: "If you don't believe me, I can testify with a tenth-level energy stone!"

Level ten energy stone!The main hall was dead silent at first, and then suddenly boiled like boiling water.Everyone's attention was on the box held by Gu Lian, and even Yu Shengze looked at it in surprise.

The body explosion crisis of fighters mostly occurs during promotion and battle.In addition to taking sedatives or timely counseling during mental riots, using energy stones is also a way to reduce crises.The reason is that the energy stone can reduce the consumption of the warrior's mental power and avoid the unexpected riots caused by improper control during the warrior's mental power output.

The tenth-level energy stone can only be made by energy masters, and it can absolutely prevent fighters below the peak of level nine from experiencing mental violence during battle.However, just like the pharmacy masters, there were only a handful of five energy masters who could make tenth-level energy stones in Hava Star, and it has already become history.

Gu Lian took out such a tenth-level energy stone, as long as she and the ninth prince Yu Shengze have a moderate level of spiritual power matching, she is absolutely qualified to compete for the position of concubine.

Almost all the senior fighters were staring at the box fervently.A hearty and carefree battle is the dream of every talented senior fighter.Thinking of this, even the usually calm ninth-level veterans couldn't hide their moved expressions.Only Yu Kaifeng and Luisa remained expressionless, obviously they already knew about it.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Gu Lian blinked, and looked at Yu Shengze with a shy smile: "Your Highness, you can check it yourself."

"Hmph, I don't want it!" Before Yu Shengze could speak, Yu Qinghan asked angrily: "You have ulterior motives, you are not a good person! I, Uncle Nine Emperors, don't care about people like you!"

Gu Lian was taken aback, looked at Duan Chu with a calm expression, and asked with aggrieved face: "Why, I strive for my own happiness, what's wrong?"

"You belittle my Uncle Duan Chu's low mental power, but you can't see his talent for medicine. He is arrogant and disgusting; my Uncle Nine Emperors never participates in spiritual power matching, but you know your matching degree, which is clearly private. It’s really shameless to investigate; also, if you take out the tenth-level energy stone, you just want to be my Nine Emperor Aunt, then next time a person appears with a tenth-level mecha and a tenth-level beast crystal. Can you be my aunt of the Nine Emperors?" Yu Qinghan uttered all the words in a small mouth, so that Yu Hongchi who was on the side forgot to stop him, and the distant princess became dizzy with anger.

"Pfft", Duan Chu couldn't help laughing anymore, thinking that Yu Qinghan was simply too cute.

Yu Shengze was still sullen at first, but seeing Duan Chu smiled now, his expression eased a lot, he stretched out his arms to hug him, and nodded at Yu Qinghan: "Okay, what are you wasting your tongue with this kind of person, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, he really pulled Duan Chu towards the side door of the main hall.

"Wait a minute!" Gu Lian stood up suddenly, and shouted at the backs of Duan Chu and Yu Shengze: "I am betting on the tenth-level energy stone, in the name of my pawn, Your Excellency Duan Chu, please accept me." The challenge of breaking the contract!"

Yu Shengze turned his head abruptly, and looked at Gu Lian with dark eyes.On the main seat, Yu Kaifeng, who had been sitting still, suddenly stood up, and Luisa's face was even more frightened and angry.

The guests in the hall were all stunned, and the princes also looked at this talented and handsome Gu Lian contracted person in disbelief. They never expected that Gu Lian would be so persistent.

"Is she crazy? She actually took the tenth-level energy stone as a challenge to break the contract!"

"Besides, the Ninth Prince has been refusing to talk to her, obviously he has made up his mind. Just like what His Highness Qing Han said, the position of His Highness Ninth Prince's Concubine is not a transaction."

"You can't say that, level ten energy stone, anyone would be willing to change it, right?"

"Of course the Ninth Prince is different. You forgot that he was about to advance to the seventh level, so he chose Duan Chu as his partner. Since he is a lover who depends on life and death, no matter how many tenth-level energy stones, he will not exchange them."

"Even if Gu Lian really wins this challenge, the Ninth Prince can still choose Duan Chu as the rightful king. If you win the contract, it will only dissolve the bond between Duan Chu and the Ninth Prince, and it will not affect their relationship. .”

"Are you joking? Duan Chu really lost, how can he still have the face to stand beside the Ninth Prince, even His Majesty will not recognize Duan Chu as the prince and king!"

"And both of them are contractors, even the contractors' guild has no right to interfere. This is an ancient rule of the contractors' guild."

"This is really..."

There was a lot of discussion in the hall, Chu Hua's face turned ashen, and Qi Haoyan held him tightly in his arms. In the main hall, Yu Qinghan stared at Gu Lian in disgust, feeling even more that his uncle should not have anything to do with her.

"What is the challenge of deed deed?" A cold and doubtful voice rang out, and the discussion paused. Only then did the guests realize that the person being challenged was a deed who had left for Earth only two months after entering school. Kind of ancient rituals don't understand at all.

"Uncle Duan Chu, don't promise her!" Yu Qinghan anxiously pulled Duan Chu.

But Gu Lian finally took the lead, and explained solemnly with her head held high: "It is I who challenge you. If you lose, you must break the bond with His Highness the Ninth Prince!" She paused, and added unwillingly: " If you win, the tenth-level energy stone will be yours!"

Duan Chu's heart moved, and he looked at Yu Shengze inquiringly: "Sheng Ze?"

Yu Shengze frowned, and at a glance, he knew that Duan Chu was tempted.

Duan Chu chuckled, and looked back at Gu Lian: "First, what is the content of the challenge? Second, how do I know whether the tenth-level energy stone is real or not?"

Gu Lian's eyes showed ecstasy, and she held up the box in her hand and said, "The tenth-level energy stone is here. You can ask your majesty, the fighters' guild, the contractor's guild, and the energy stone association to verify it. Strength competition is the main thing. I heard that you can control the battleship to destroy the seventh-level starry sky beasts, and you are also very good at mental attack, right?"

Duan Chu raised his eyebrows, nodded as if he didn't notice the trap in her words.

Gu Lian immediately asked: "You agree?"

"Wait a minute!" A man's voice suddenly interrupted them, everyone followed the sound, Meng Jiayi suddenly stood up, regardless of Duan Yaqing's ugly face, looked at Duan Chu and said anxiously: "She is gifted with spiritual power. The value exceeds S rank, but you are only D rank, how can you compete with her in mental strength? Don't be fooled!"

Duan Chu didn't expect that Meng Jiayi would interrupt abruptly, revealing the talent value of this body. Seeing that the guests started discussing again, Duan Chu quickly said: "It was just a test when I was ten years old. It has since recovered."

After he finished speaking briefly, he looked at Gu Lian again, his eyes paused on the energy stone in her hand, and asked, "My innate spiritual power has recovered, do you really want to challenge me?"

When Yu Qinghan heard this, his eyes lit up, and he raised his face and said excitedly: "Oh, Uncle Duan Chu, she has already challenged it!"

Gu Lian sneered in her heart, only looking forward to Shenfei's agreement: "His Royal Highness Qinghan is right, once a challenge is initiated, it must not be stopped. This is an ancient ritual, unless you refuse me!"

Duan Chu nodded without changing his expression: "Okay, I accept!"

Yu Shengze lowered his head, reprimanded with displeasure: "Xiao Chu!"

Duan Chu turned his head and saw the anger and connivance left in Yu Shengze's eyes. He deliberately scratched his lover's palm with the hands he had been clasping, and said confidently, "As for the tenth-level energy stone, she is about my age. !"

After finishing speaking, he looked at Gu Lian and asked, "When do you want to start? Use mechas or battleships?"

"Right now, we can compete directly, without mechas and battleships! Let everyone testify!" After Gu Lian finished speaking eagerly, she looked at Yu Shengze and assured: "Your Highness, don't worry, I just want to prove that I am competing Chu is more suitable for you, and you will never hurt him."

Chu Hua, who had already squeezed to the front, couldn't stop him, and his eyes were red with anxiety.Instead, it was Qi Haoyan who calmly comforted him. If the Ninth Prince really wanted to stop him, he would have slapped Gu Lian away with his previous performance, so it was her turn to keep provoking.

"Okay, let's do it now!" The majestic and deep voice sounded in everyone's ears.

The people who were discussing in the hall fell silent one after another. Duan Chu looked over and saw that Yu Kaifeng of Emperor Demos had already stepped down from the main seat with Luisa on his arm.With just a slight lift of her hand, the box in Gu Lian's hand rose into the air and landed in his hand, and then handed it to several elders around her, asking them to make sure first.

After confirming, Duan Chu and Gu Lian also faced each other and stood at a place not far away.

"Okay!" Yu Kaifeng just nodded, a strong spiritual power barrier covered Duan Chu and Gu Lian, and almost at the same time, the red spiritual power visible to the naked eye attacked Duan Chu.

"Ah, be careful!" Chu Hua lost his voice, and couldn't even think about why he could see the fluctuation of mental power.

With a "bang", Gu Lian was knocked into the air, and fell heavily on the barrier, plopped forward in embarrassment, her face was pale, and bright red blood overflowed from her mouth.

The hall was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling, even Yu Kaifeng and the elders were stunned, Gu Lian struggled to get up, and pointed at Duan Chu with trembling fingers: "You, materialize your spiritual power! "
