"We greet his Imperial Highness with our utmost sincerity!"
The girls all shouted while kowtowing, creating an illusion of
servants worshipping their Emperor!
The greeting had sent chills down the Mortal's spines, and
they could only watch while kneeling on the floor with a
stupefied face.
"Rise." Tian Yi said with a gentle voice, sending chills through
everyone's body.
The word on his forehead disappears, and he looks around at
the dumbfounded faces glaring back at him.
"Ahem. Let's talk somewhere else more private, follow me."
He started walking back to his own room.
Before standing back up, the girls said, "Yes, your Imperial
Highness."
"Oh my Heavens, I am standing so close to him!"
"Mother, Father, thank you for giving birth to me, granting me
such a golden opportunity!"
"My dream to see him in person has finally been fulfilled, and
so fast too… I thought it was going to take few hundred
thousand years…"
Inside their heart, the girls were all crying tears of happiness
from meeting the idol they've all been dreaming about all day
and night.
*Ripple*
Before Tian Yi went back into the airship, he waved his
sleeves, and a ripple spread across the entire airship.
All the Mortals this ripple touches, instantly knock out, falling
asleep.
Looking at the sleeping Xuan Wanshan somewhere in the
crowd, Tian Yi shook his head, "I am sorry Master, but it is
too early for you to get involved." He sighs in his heart.
Finding nothing wrong with his actions, the girls continued to
follow him.
"Meng Xiang, come." Tian Yi said to her.
"Yes, Big Brother." She replied and started jogging towards
him.
The girls trembled after hearing how Meng Xiang addressed
him, "Since when did the Imperial Tian Family have a
daughter?!" They cried in their minds.
As far as the entire world knew, they only had one son, so why
is this little girl calling him Big Brother?!
After catching up, Meng Xiang grabbed Tian Yi's hand and
followed him.
"!!!!" Seeing her actions, the girls all coughed up a mouthful
of invisible blood, "What! She dares to touch him with such
intimacy?! Who is she?!" No matter how much they thought,
they could not guess her identity! Who in this world dares to
touch the son of the Celestial Emperor like that? Who had the
background to do that? Not even his servants dared to touch
him so easily, yet this little girl went for his hands, one of the
three forbidden parts of his body!
The son of the Celestial Emperor has three parts of his body
which were forbidden, at least that is what people decided by
themselves without his knowledge. One, his hands that every
female dream of holding onto forever! Two, his lips that every
female wants to kiss, but unable to even imagine how! Third,
his rod that was considered this Universe's most Legendary
Treasure that nobody dares to talk about obtaining!
If the girls find out that Tian Yi's second forbidden part has
already been stolen by Meng Xiang's mischievous little hands,
they'll definitely cough out real blood.
With their minds trying to guess Meng Xiang's background,
they silently follow Tian Yi in an orderly fashion. This
situation right now was even grander than visiting any King or
Overlord they've met before. If they do not show off their
grace now, when will they get another chance?
They gently walked with each step in unison, and with their
back straight, they puffed out their proud chest.
If one were to look from the sidelines, they would definitely
mistake this scene as a Heavenly Parade, with Goddesses
following an Emperor!
They continued to follow Tian Yi until they reached his room.
Even with how spacious the room was, fitting in this many
girls took up half of the room. However, even with that, it felt
very spacious due to how orderly the girls were.
"…" None of the girls spoke, waiting for Tian Yi to speak
first.
"Make yourself at home first; then we can talk." Tian Yi said.
They all bowed, "Yes, your Imperial Highness." But none of
them moved and stayed standing there.
Tian Yi's right eye twitched, "No need to be so stiff, sit
anywhere you want." Waving a hand, chairs made of jade
appeared behind the girls.
"…."
The girls` were speechless at his actions, but they did not dare
to stand any longer. Who would dare to stay standing when the
Son of the Celestial Emperor offer them to sit with the chairs
already handed out?
"Thank you, for his Imperial Highness's graciousness." The
girls lowered their heads while sitting.
"This place is not the Celestial Emperor's World. You can just
call me Tian Yi. Ah, Brother Yi is fine too." He said while
waving his hands.
All the girl's eyes popped out when they heard that, "WHAT!"
They all cried in their heart.
Call the Son of the Celestial Emperor by his name without any
honorifics? Who would dare?! Not even these close to him
would dare to address him like that!
"But—" Someone tried to refuse.
"No buts, this is an order." Tian Yi said casually.
Finally being in an environment that he enjoys, why would he
want people to treat him the same way others did back at his
home?
"….." They were all speechless with their jaws hanging.
An order? He ordered them to do something like that?! It was
such an unfair, yet good order!
After a minute of silence, someone finally spoke up, "If it's
Brother Yi's order, then there is no choice…"
"That's right!!! If it was his order, then we cannot refuse!"
They all thought.
An order from Tian Yi is like an order from the Celestial
Emperor himself! Who would dare to refuse his order, and
such a good one at that?! Who in this world will have the
opportunity to call the Son of the Celestial Emperor with such
intimacy?! If they refuse such a Heaven-Sent chance, even
calling them stupid is an understatement!
Because it was his order and they had to follow, who will dare
to bother them now?! If other people complain, then they are
basically telling them to disobey his orders, which is a heinous
crime to even think about doing!
Tian Yi nods, "It is good if you understand. So, why are you
here in the Mortal's World?" He asks them the question that
was on his mind for awhile now.
"Your— Brother Yi, we have come down to the Mortal's
Realm to find one of our fellow sisters." One of the girls said.
"Oh, is that the only reason?" Tian Yi asked with a calm voice.
"Yes." They all said together.
"Phew. Good, this is excellent. Now I just need to…"
Feeling refreshed, Tian Yi said, "Good, then can I ask you
girls to do me a favor? I am aware that my father has been
looking for me, but I do not plan on going back. If you can
promise me not to mention anything about me being here, and
keep this meeting a secret, I will owe you all a favor. How
about it?" He was smiling with a gentle expression.
Even though he was still in his fake appearance, this soft smile
gave a few invisible punches to the girl's heart, making it beat
faster.
"Even if Brother Yi did not owe us a favor, we will still be
willing to keep this meeting a secret." Someone said.
They were obviously aware of his father looking for him, even
to the point of having him part of the reward. If they went and
told the Celestial Emperor that he was currently in the
Mortal's Realm, they can even ask for marriage with him!
However, with that said, none of them even had any thoughts
of telling. If they went and told the Celestial Emperor about
his location, then not only are they betraying him, they are also
making an enemy out of every female out there! Not to
mention that only one of them could get the reward, so why
create an unnecessary bloodbath when they can all enjoy him
together as sisters?
Also, what did it mean to have the Son of the Celestial
Emperor walking around in an unknown location? That meant
with enough fate and fortune; anybody could meet him just
like these girls over here!
"No, I will owe all of you one favor. Come, tell me what you
want." Tian Yi said while standing in front of them, waiting
for someone to come up to him.
Hearing that, the girls all looked at each other with an excited
face. However, none of them went up because they did not
know what to ask! What should they ask for from him? What
are they allowed to ask for from the son of the Celestial
Emperor? He was still the son of the Celestial Emperor, so
they have to keep their requests reasonable.
*****
After many minutes of thinking, someone finally made up her
mind and stood up.
She walked in front of Tian Yi and bowed, "Brother Yi, may I
shamelessly ask you to say my name in a gentle voice once?"
She asks with a red face.
"!!!!" The girls that were still thinking trembled upon hearing
her request.
"What a brave girl! I did not think she was this bold!"
"Genius! Maybe I should ask the same thing…" They were all
thinking to themselves.
Tian Yi looked at this beautiful girl who has short black hair
down to her neck, "That's it? Are you sure? You do not have
to hold back, you know." He asked with a puzzled expression.
He thought that these girls would either ask for some Treasure
or Cultivation Techniques, yet here they are asking for
something simple like this? Are they just being considerate
because of his status?
"I am sure!" The girl nods with a resolute expression.
"…. Then what is your name?" He asks.
"My name is Ju Meifeng." She said with a shy voice.
"…." He went silent for a few seconds, before finally
speaking, "Ju Meifeng~."
His voice was gentle like a father caressing his baby to sleep.
*Dong*
Ju Meifeng suddenly dropped to her knees and cried silently.
The effect this voice brought to her was too much to handle!
Never in her life would she expect something as fortune as this
could happen to her. For crazy fangirls like her, this brought
more tears of joy to her than when she became a Half-God!
This happiness was not something that could be achieved by
just working hard!
"?!?!" Tian Yi watched her cry with a bewildered face, "Why
is she crying?!" He could not think of any ideas as to why she
was crying!
"A-Are you okay?" He asks.
"Un. Thank you, Brother Yi…" She nods, throwing her tears
of joy around.
After a few more seconds of crying, she stood up and walked
back to her seat.
The girls all looked at her, then back to Tian Yi with an even
more excited face than a minute ago!
This time, more than 10 of them stood up at the same time. If
it were not for trying to act appropriately in front of Tian Yi,
they would've already run in front of him.
"Relax, you will all get you turn to request something from
me. How about you all sit down first, and if you're ready, raise
your hand. I will pick from the first roll to the end." Tian Yi
said.
"Yes, Brother Yi!" They all sat back down and raised their
hands.
"Good, you can come next." He pointed to the girl in the front.
"Coming, Brother Yi!" She stood up and walked in front of
him to bow.
"What do you want?"
"Can Brother Yi stare at me intensely for one minute?"
"…. That is all?"
"Yes!"
"…." He was speechless at her request!
After letting the girl prepare, he stood there and glared at her
like a starved predator looking for preys.
"!!!!!" Feeling the fiery gaze, the girl trembles uncontrollably!
Her heart started beating like drums, and she unknowingly
drooled from her imaginations going wild!
"…." Yan Yan and Meng Xiang watched silently from the
back.
"How many years of stored up luck for the future did they use
just for today?" Yan Yan wondered to herself.
