The woman sat quietly in the courtyard. Although she was just a shadow, she was enough to make people's heart beat faster.

Her temperament is cool and noble, like a lotus blooming under the moon, both unattainable and impossible to look away from.

Her posture is elegant, and every subtle movement reveals a natural charm, as if she is the most harmonious existence between heaven and earth.

Her hair fell like a waterfall, with a faint silver glow, which contrasted beautifully with the haziness of the veil, adding a touch of mystery and fantasy.

Her eyes were deep, as if they contained the sea of ​​stars, and once you stare at them, you can't help but be attracted.

Her skin was as white as snow, forming a sharp contrast with the unique red robes of the Flame Scale Clan, highlighting the dignity and uniqueness of the demon royal family.

Everyone was deeply attracted by the phantom of the woman. Even the usually arrogant young demon could not help but hold his breath and concentrate.

Everyone understood that the woman sitting in the gauze tent was the daughter of the Flame Scale Demon King and a key figure in this son-in-law selection ceremony.

Lang Ye was also shocked by the woman's temperament, but he quickly calmed down, turned to look at Zhou Yiqiao, and asked in a low voice:.

"Brother Zhou, what do you think of this princess?"

Zhou Yiqiao turned around and looked Lang Ye up and down, then nodded slightly.

"It is indeed extraordinary. Her temperament and demeanor all demonstrate the noble bloodline of the Flame Scale Royal Family."

"If you can form a good relationship with such a person, it will undoubtedly be a great help to the Heavenly Demon Clan."

Lang Ye nodded and stared at the woman in the tent in a trance, not knowing what she was thinking.

At the same time, other demon representatives were whispering to each other, discussing various aspects of the princess.

Some admired her beauty and temperament, some were speculating about her ability and background, and some were secretly planning how to stand out in the son-in-law selection ceremony and win the favor of the princess.

Every young demon present was the best in their respective groups. They were confident and proud, but facing such an outstanding princess, their competitive consciousness was thoroughly aroused.

The son-in-law selection ceremony has not officially begun yet, but a tense and intense atmosphere has quietly spread in the banquet hall.

And above the flame sculpture, in the courtyard covered with veil, the princess examined all the young demons at the banquet under the gaze of everyone.

"Father, you have troubled all the elites of the demon race to gather in Yanlin City in order to help me choose a good husband. If you are unhappy, please forgive me."

The woman in the gauze curtain raised a slender hand and gently fiddled with the incense burner on the table beside her. Curls of green smoke rose up, interweaving with the fragrance of flowers in the courtyard, adding a bit of charm.

Her voice was cold but with a hint of tenderness that was barely perceptible, and it slowly reached everyone's ears through the veil.

"My Flame Scale Clan has been renowned for its bravery and wisdom since ancient times."

"However, I also know that true strength lies not only in strength, but also in the harmony of hearts and mutual support."

"At this son-in-law selection ceremony, I am not only choosing a partner, but also hoping to find a partner who can stand shoulder to shoulder with me, share the ups and downs, and protect the peace of this demon land."

Her words were like a gentle spring breeze, easing the atmosphere that was originally a little tense due to competition.

However, even if it is a gentle spring breeze or a gentle rain, it will cause ripples when it falls on the head of someone with ulterior motives.

However, the young demons all raised their heads and looked at the hazy figure behind the veil, with desire in their eyes becoming stronger.

"This Princess Yanlin's behavior seems to be deeply influenced by the human cultivators. If Lang Ye wants to win her favor, it may not be easy."

Zhou Yiqiao saw the other party's behavior after he appeared on the stage, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Well, I'm just taking advantage of the banquet to meet you all tonight. Don't be too reserved during the banquet."

"Tomorrow is the real moment when the ceremony begins."

The Flame Scale Demon King spoke at the right time. His voice was deep and majestic, echoing throughout the courtyard like thunder, drawing everyone's attention back.

The young demons knew they had lost their composure, and they quickly lowered their heads, restrained their outward emotions, and readjusted their postures to show their respect to the Demon King and the Princess.

The atmosphere at the banquet returned to its proper solemnity and harmony.

After three rounds of drinking, the Flame Scale Demon King took the princess away, leaving behind a group of demon youths.

Perhaps what happened in the morning had already made everyone except Zhou Yiqiao and Yu Langye come to their senses. As soon as the Flame Scale Demon King left, the atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became cold.

Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao turned a blind eye and filled Lang Ye's glass with spirit wine.

"Don't worry. This banquet is probably for the seniors to let the princess take a look at the appearance of her future husband. Now that they are leaving, they must be asking the princess if she has anyone she likes."

Lang Ye suddenly realized, and after toasting with Zhou Yiqiao and consuming all the delicacies prepared by the Flame Scale Demon King, he left the banquet amid everyone's surprised gazes.

The two of them strolled in the imperial palace, admiring the unique scenery of the combination of humans and demons in the palace, and feeling impressed by the Demon King's attention to this princess whose name was still unknown.

"Brother Wolf, you must seize this opportunity. If my guess is correct, this person should be the favorite of the Flame Scale Demon King. His status in the Flame Scale Clan is much higher than you think."

Such words of expression of determination were not taboo, so Zhou Yiqiao had no intention of talking to Lang Ye behind closed doors.

Lang Ye understood what he meant, chuckled and nodded, with a determined light in his eyes.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry. Although I, Lang Ye, am not from a prominent family, I believe I am much better than those idiots at the banquet."

"Unless Her Royal Highness the Princess already has someone in her heart, I, Lang Ye, am confident that I will be the Princess's final choice."

Seeing Lang Ye's statement, Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly. After confirming that the pair of eyes in the darkness had left, he put his arm around Lang Ye's shoulders and returned to their residence.

"Now the day's trials have finally come to an end. All that remains is tomorrow's competition in the ring."

As soon as he entered the room, Zhou Yiqiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Lang Ye touched his head in a naive manner and grinned.

"Thanks to Brother Zhou's great help today, we have gained a considerable advantage over others."

“Although we have the first-mover advantage, we should not take it lightly.”

Zhou Yiqiao looked deep in the eyes when he heard this and said seriously.

"Since the princess proposed to find a soulmate who is compatible with her, it means that she values ​​not only strength, but also character and wisdom."

"In the ring tomorrow, in addition to showing your bravery and skills, you must also show your generosity towards those who fight you and show your broad mind."

"I will tell you what you should do tomorrow."
