Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 702: Chapter 569: New and Old Grudges Settled with One Slash

Undress?

This statement caused another uproar in the venue.

Even Chen Mu, a man usually pursued by many women, couldn’t help but blush slightly, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

This Yuehou of Daxia was truly shameless, daring to publicly ask Heir Chen to undress!

Especially for those noble ladies who admired Heir of Kaijiang Prince Manor, if it weren’t for the presence of Emperor Beiqing, they might have rushed forward to slap Ye Lingyue a few times already.

Chen Mu, in Beiqing, had a very high popularity and could be said to be the foremost among unmarried men, surpassing even the two princes of Emperor Beiqing.

The main reason was that Feng Xun, known as the most beautiful man in Beiqing, was often frail and had an early verbal marriage agreement with Xue Pianran, thus other women naturally dared not covet him.

Second, Cong Lv, though equally noble and good-looking, was not fond of talking and was less popular than him.

As for the two princes of Emperor Beiqing, evidently they had not inherited the genius and appearance of Emperor Beiqing and were also not eye-catching.

Chen Mu was the Heir of Kaijiang Prince Manor and a senior disciple of the Hunyuan Sect. Despite his young age, his cultivation was impressively strong with skills reaching the Reincarnation Fourth Path.

Regrettably, Chen Mu always had high standards and rarely found women within Beiqing appealing.

Today, when Chen Mu came to the banquet, his carriage happened to follow Feng Xun’s carriage, and he saw Ye Lingyue alighting from her carriage.

At that moment, the gentle light from the palace lanterns shone on Ye Lingyue’s side face, revealing her eyebrows like distant mountains and eyes like bright moons, truly a beauty stunning enough to topple cities.

Chen Mu was so taken aback that it took a moment for him to regain his senses. After inquiring from others, he learned that this woman was Ye Lingyue from Daxia, and he took a liking to her, his eyes following her since entering the hall.

Unfortunately, Ye Lingyue had already caught the eye of Feng Xun.

However, what does it matter if Feng Xun was interested? Chen Mu didn’t consider himself less than Feng Xun, except maybe slightly in status and appearance.

But Feng Xun was a sickly man who knew no martial arts, how could he compare with him?

As long as Yue Marquis was not married to Feng Xun, he believed he still had a chance.

Just then, Ye Lingyue requested assistance, and Chen Mu couldn’t wait to step forward.

Xue Pianran, watching from the side, felt even more disdain for Ye Lingyue. Feng Xun had just asked Emperor Beiqing for her hand in marriage a moment ago, and the next moment, Ye Lingyue was asking another man to undress.

What kind of fickle woman was this, Xue Pianran wondered what Feng Xun found attractive in her?

Looking at Feng Xun again, Xue Pianran expected him to show displeasure, but to her surprise, Feng Xun sat leisurely aside, sporting a faint smile, his phoenix eyes glued to Ye Lingyue without any sign of anger.

Upon seeing this, Xue Pianran’s heart clenched.

”Princely Heir Chen, Yue Marquis wants you to try on clothing for His Majesty, do you intend to act coy like a young maiden, isn’t that just inviting ridicule?”

Feng Xun said with a hint of mockery.

Only then did Chen Mu realize, he softly coughed a few times, removed his outer robe, and bowed to Emperor Beiqing.

”With audacity, I shall try it on for His Majesty.”

Emperor Beiqing also happily agreed, wanting to see what was so special about the purple robe that Ye Lingyue dared to present in front of so many people.

Chen Mu put on the purple robe and immediately noticed something extraordinary.

Chen Mu, born into wealth, had grown up wearing Beiqing Cloud Brocade, something immensely precious to others.

But once he wore it, he realized that the material of this purple robe was even softer and lighter than Beiqing Cloud Silk, and it provided excellent warmth.

Ye Lingyue did not know earlier that Emperor Beiqing was a woman, but luckily, purple was a color suitable for both men and women. The style of the robe was unisex, but in terms of size, Chen Mu was a bit taller than Emperor Beiqing. Initially, he thought the robe would not fit.

But as soon as he put it on, the size of the purple robe was just right; evidently, it could automatically adjust its size.

Others also noticed and could not help but praise it.

However, just the ability to adjust size automatically was nothing extraordinary.

Emperor Beiqing owned the Beiqing National Treasury, which lacked nothing valuable.

As Chen Mu was pondering whether the robe had any other exceptional qualities, Ye Lingyue spoke again.

”Your Majesty, this minister takes the liberty to request the use of Guard Cong’s spiritual artifact.”

”Yue Marquis, what is this?”

Emperor Beiqing signaled to Cong Lv, who handed over the weapon.

Weapons were not allowed inside the Chuyun Palace, so only Guard Cong, who carried a sword, was permitted to have one.

When Ye Lingyue received Cong Lv’s sword, Cong Lv couldn’t help but whisper:

”Yue Marquis, swords are blind, my blade is very sharp, you should be careful not to hurt yourself.”

”Guard Cong, guess what, if you use your knife to chop my refined purple robe, which will be more formidable, your knife’s edge or my robe?”

Ye Lingyue smiled lightly.

Her casual attitude made Cong Lv even more displeased.

”Are you planning to use my knife to chop that purple robe?” Cong Lv looked at the purple robe, thinking it was a congratulatory gift for Emperor Beiqing, and chopping it might not be proper. However, this thought was fleeting. ”Yue Marquis, my sword is bestowed by the Emperor himself, forged by Master Chen Hongru from Dan Palace, how can it be easily cut as you suggest?”

”But what if it really does get cut?” Ye Lingyue shrugged.

That provoked Cong Lv, who snorted coldly and said aloud:

”Since that’s the case, please have the Emperor decide. If my blade cuts through, I will not pursue the matter, but if your robe gets damaged, it has nothing to do with me.”

”Yue Marquis, do you have any objections?” Emperor Beiqing developed some interest herself.

During the entire evening, although she saw various treasures, none truly caught her eye.

The purple robe Ye Lingyue handed over seemed very ordinary, so she was quite intrigued about what trick Ye Lingyue was playing.

”I would ask for no less. Then I’ll trouble Heir Chen and Guard Cong.” Ye Lingyue smiled as she took Cong Lv’s sword.

Cong Lv’s sword was called the Ba Feng Blade, a middle earth-grade.

Ye Lingyue weighed it in her hand and quickly noticed that the sword was made from Hundred Refinement Steel mixed with some Nirvana Iron.

Hundred Refinement Steel is obtained by forging Xuantie a hundred times, and its sturdiness rivaled that of Ye Lingyue’s Star Saliva Dagger. With an addition of some Nirvana Iron, the Ba Feng Blade in her hand emitted a cold light, sharp and unstoppable.

As for Chen Mu, seeing Ye Lingyue step forward with the sword, he was utterly unreserved, his complexion slightly pale.

He initially just had a good impression of Ye Lingyue and volunteered to help, not knowing that she would use him directly as a human test stone for cutting.
