Chapter 37: Senior Brother (Seeking Member Points and Votes)
Zi Bei smiled, but his half-closed black eyes flashed with cold light.
That's right. He is no longer infatuated with Princess Mingyue now, but after all, Princess Mingyue is still his nominal wife.
If some unknown man were to intervene, he would be unable to tolerate it.
What about the disciples of Tongtian Mountain? To take someone's wife is even more hateful than killing one's parents!
"Qibi, don't worry, the Five Great Sacred Lands are indeed high and mighty, but they are not allowed to interfere with worldly affairs. That kid should know his place, if he dares to cause trouble, our Nuo De family is not one to be trifled with." Huan An said to Qibi.
"It's better this way!" Qi Bei smiled faintly, he had a premonition that the engagement ceremony this time would not be so peaceful.

The imperial palace, the sleeping moon garden.
The colorful magic lanterns made the Moon Palace look even more magnificent, and the princess's engagement was a grand affair, with her preparations being even more elaborate than those of the groom.
At this time, Princess Mingyue was naked in the bathtub filled with flower petals, her long hair spread out like silk on the water, and the warm steam made her snow-white skin even more tender and smooth, like a peeled lychee, making people unable to help but want to take a bite.
Getting engaged is a big deal in a girl's life.
Although Princess Mingyue has been very indifferent, her heart is also lost.
The princess gazed blankly at the beautiful flower petals floating on the water, and inexplicably thought of Qi Bei's icy gaze that seemed to pierce through her soul in the western suburbs of the imperial city.
He's really different now, and can't find any infatuation for her at all. His eyes used to be so sharp, his waist used to be so straight!
"Zi Bei, what qualifications do you have to look down on me... No matter how high your achievements are, how can they compare to being a disciple of Tongtian Mountain like me?" The Moon Princess's jade hand clenched into a fist, and the water in her hand turned into colorful steam, even the flower petals had dissolved into the water and evaporated.
At this time, Princess Mingyue saw her own pretty face in the water, and the puffed-up expression on that face made her feel a little strange.
"It was my obsession, I and his world were destined to be different, just two temporary intersecting lines, after the intersection they would go further and further apart." Princess Mingyue gently shook her head and smiled, the anger in her heart was thrown out.
But is the path of life a straight line without any ups and downs? Perhaps it's full of twists and turns, and who knows, maybe the two lines will intersect again at some point in time and space.
"Princess, Young Master Feng Tian is waiting outside and says he wants to see you." Suddenly, the voice of a maid came from outside the bathroom.
The bright moon princess frowned, it's already deep in the night, and this senior brother came at this time, which is quite inappropriate. In fact, from the expression of this senior brother when he first looked at her, she knew that this senior brother had fallen in love with her at first sight, and his words were filled with unreserved affectionate intentions, trying every means to stop her from marrying Qi Bei.
Undeniably, this senior brother of the Blazing Sky School is handsome, and compared to Qi Bei, he doesn't fall short in any way. Moreover, at a young age, he has already become a Wang Pin magician, his innate talent is self-evident.
At this thought, Princess Mingyue suddenly froze for a moment, as if she had just discovered that in her eyes, Qi Bei's appearance was extremely handsome, and she had never had such a feeling before.
"Let him wait." Princess Mingyue slightly shook her head and spoke in a light tone.
Feng Tian Shixiong's visit at this time, although Ming Yue Gongzhu was not pleased, but she couldn't afford to lose face in front of him. After all, both of them were direct disciples of Kaiti, and Feng Tian had entered the Tongtian Mountain gate since he was a child.
He wore a simple, dark purple magic robe that didn't look luxurious but had an air of nobility about it. His sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes were complemented by a reserved smile on his face, which was extremely attractive to women.
The palace maidens were mostly secretly looking at him, not only because of his appearance and temperament, but also because of the noble status as a disciple of Tongtian Mountain.
Tongtian Mountain is a paradise for magicians, where the noble magicians in the eyes of the world, each and every one of them, are eager to enter. It's said that high-level magic spells that can't be bought even with all the wealth of a magician on the outside, are ordinary and common in Tongtian Mountain. It's also said that Tongtian Mountain has even sacred magic spells, and there is still a divine level magic spell left from the heavenly realm.
After a while, Princess Mingyue walked out with her clothes and hair properly arranged.
Feng Tianwang looked back, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and his eyes were full of astonishment.
Princess Mingyue wore a snow-white flowing palace dress with fluttering silk tassels, walking gently as if she were a fairy emerging from the holy light.
"Big brother, what brings you here so late? You know that tomorrow is my engagement day and I have many trivial matters to attend to." Princess Mingyue said lightly, the intention of sending him away was very clear.
However, Tian seemed to not understand at all and kindly smiled: "Junior sister, I came here to advise you to reconsider. You are a disciple of Tongtian Mountain, there's no need for you to sacrifice yourself because of worldly politics."
"Senior brother, thank you for your kindness, but I've already made up my mind. If senior brother has come here just to say this, then please leave." Princess Mingyue said, feeling somewhat displeased in her heart.
"Sister, didn't you tell me during the day that you weren't willing to get engaged to Qi Bei in your heart?" Feng Tian asked.
"Yes, but..."
"That's right, I came to give you something. When I first met my junior sister, I had to bring a gift." Xuan Tian said, taking out a delicate blue jade box, and with a slight shake, the box floated to Princess Ming Yue's side.
Starry Jade! This jade box alone is actually carved from the extremely precious Starry Jade.
The Starlight Jade was unearthed from a meteorite after it fell from the sky, containing mysterious energy. Carrying just a small piece with you can nourish your body and ward off all poisons. A piece of Starlight Jade this large is priceless.
"This is the reward I got for coming in third in the Tongtian Mountain Sect's disciple competition five years ago. It's a Wangpin soft armor, which can neutralize half of the attacks from Wangpin mages and warriors below." Huo Tian said with some pride, but he didn't mention that he had been wearing this soft armor close to his body for several years, and if Mingyue Princess were to wear it close to her body now, wouldn't that be an indirect intimate contact between the two?
"Senior brother, this is too precious a thing for me to accept. Please take it back." Princess Mingyue waved her hand and pushed the jade box back into front of Feng Tian, she was an extremely intelligent woman, but even so, she couldn't guess what Feng Tian was thinking in his heart.
"Sister, this is a gift for our meeting, it's my brother's heartfelt intention, you must accept it. It's getting late, I won't disturb you anymore." Tian Yan placed the jade box on the chair beside her and turned to leave.
The bright moon princess gazed at Feng Tian's figure with a calm and indifferent expression, suddenly speaking as if to herself: "Follow him."
"Yes." A fleeting voice was heard beside Princess Mingyue's ear.
In the eyes of Mingyue Princess, this senior brother was extremely talented but not psychologically mature. Perhaps as a disciple of Tongtian Mountain, he had always been pampered and never experienced any setbacks. Compared to Qibei, he...
Princess Mingyue furrowed her delicate eyebrows, and for some reason, she thought of comparing him with Qi Bei.
