I am in Douluo, I am the son of the Dragon God
Chapter 209 I Will Soon Not Be a Princess
Even though Xu Xingyu was extremely reluctant to accept Xu Jiujiu's invitation, he finally looked at Gu Yuena with an apologetic look, and then took Xu Jiujiu's soft little hand.
Then he responded in a very gentlemanly manner: "I do."
Although Gu Yuena, who was standing by, felt a little uncomfortable, she still used her mental power to convey a message to Xu Xingyu, telling her that after the dance, she must dance with her.
In response to this, Xu Xingyu could only use his mental power to quickly respond that he would definitely dance with Gu Yuena, or in other words, dancing with Gu Yuena was the thing he was most looking forward to at this banquet.
After receiving such a response, Gu Yuena walked to the dining table contentedly and started eating, just to kill time while waiting for Xu Xingyu to finish dancing.
The dishes prepared for this banquet were not ordinary, many of them were meat provided by soul beasts, and the vegetables were made from rare herbs. The same was true for the snacks.
This shows how hard the chefs from Xingluo worked at this banquet.
Gu Yuena, as the king of soul beasts, did not make any comment on the fact that Xingluo's chef used soul beast meat. Instead, she began to eat it with relish.
But there is no way around it. The soul beast world is a world where the strong prey on the weak. It is completely normal for soul beasts to eat other soul beasts, let alone top-level soul beasts like the dragon clan.
Even though Gu Yuena basically cultivates in the Lake of Life all year round and eats spiritual fruits produced by the Lake of Life every day, it does not mean that she is averse to eating meat.
Xu Xingyu, who was standing by, couldn't help but sigh when she saw Gu Yuena had already started eating. It seemed that in the original book, it was stated that Gu Yuena was an invisible foodie.
His appetite is second only to Tang Wulin, who absorbed the blood of the Golden Dragon King, and his son Tang Xuanyu, who has the blood of the Dragon God.
However, unlike these two people, she can actually absorb the soul power of heaven and earth to replace food, so she does not have to eat to fill her stomach.
But that approach lacks spiritual satisfaction, so she still prefers to eat when she can.
Fortunately, she was still very polite when eating, so after she turned into a ruthless eater, she did not attract too much attention from others.
Back to Xu Xingyu, he and Xu Jiujiu had already started their first dance together.
Accompanied by music, the two began their own movement.
Dancing is an art, it is the rhythm of life and an expression of joy, sorrow and happiness.
At this time, Xu Xingyu and Xu Jiujiu also perfectly expressed this art to everyone.
Under the light, Xu Jiujiu's graceful dancing figure fluttered like a beautiful butterfly and twisted her waist like a graceful willow branch.
As the dancer, Xu Xingyu was like a perfect gentleman. He seemed to be able to guess her thoughts before she made any moves, and then coordinate with her dance moves at the right time.
Soon the two of them became the center of the banquet, and the staff in charge of lighting were also attracted by their dancing and unconsciously kept shining the lights on the two who were still dancing.
The two ignored the discussions of the people around them and started chatting among themselves.
"Hey, I didn't expect that as the young master of Qi Ling Pagoda, you would have the leisure to learn dancing! I thought you would focus all your attention on rectifying Qi Ling Pagoda and your own cultivation."
You should know that before the dance, Xu Jiujiu was prepared to dance with Xu Xingyu, knowing that his feet would be stepped on tonight. But unexpectedly, Xu Xingyu was like a dancing king, not making any unnecessary movements, and perfectly coordinated with Xu Jiujiu's own dance moves.
Xu Xingyu just helplessly responded to this: "I can't help it. I am also from a noble family. I have learned most of the things that nobles must learn before awakening their martial spirits, including the art of dancing. I just don't know if I am a little rusty after not dancing for so long."
It was obvious that Xu Xingyu didn't particularly want to recall that time. Although he was only six years old at the time, his soul had already acquired the mindset of a Blue Star college student.
Under such circumstances, learning the aristocratic etiquette similar to that of the Blue Star in the Middle Ages was a painful experience for Xu Xingyu.
However, Xu Jiujiu still praised: "In my opinion, you have done very well, and even so, I can feel that you have your own passion in dancing, and you are not just rigidly imitating the content of the textbook."
"It is truly an honor for me to receive the praise from the princess."
The two of them chatted and danced until the music stopped.
After the dance, the two found a place to sit and rest amid the applause of the crowd. Xu Xingyu felt that today would be a long day as she thought about dancing with Gu Yuena later.
In his previous life, he had no interest in dancing. Now, at most, he had learned dancing in a systematic way in this life, and he had no intention of studying it in depth.
It was at this moment that Xu Xingyu suddenly remembered a question she had wanted to ask the other party before. Xu Xingyu looked at Xu Jiujiu puzzledly and asked, "Why did you expose our engagement?"
You should know that although the engagement between Xu Xingyu and Xu Jiujiu existed before, it was not widely publicized.
Part of the reason is because Xu Xingyu has more than just Xu Jiujiu, and part of the reason is because of the current neutral position of Qi Ling Tower.
Once Xu Xingyu really marries this princess, the Qi Ling Tower will most likely lose its current neutral position, because marrying someone else's princess itself is a sign of favoring Xing Luo.
This is also why Xu Xingyu has actually been trying to find a way to cancel the engagement made between his grandfather and the previous emperor.
As a result, Xu Jiujiu revealed that they were an engaged couple at the banquet, and it would be difficult to cancel the engagement now.
In response, Xu Jiujiu smiled bitterly and said, "I know what you are worried about. Don't worry, after this competition, I will no longer be the princess of the Xingluo Empire."
“Huh????” Xu Xingyu was full of questions at this moment. How come you, a princess, were suddenly deposed?
At this time, Xu Jiujiu explained: "I have always been curious about why no one has chosen me as your fiancée. At first, I thought it was because you felt that my strength and talent were not enough, so you wanted to prove your strength in this competition."
"However, after this semi-final, I carefully pondered it and found that you were actually struggling because of the stance of Qi Ling Pagoda itself."
"So after discussing with my brother, we decided to temporarily abolish my status as a princess in this competition. And this will last until you think that Qi Ling Tower can have a deeper cooperation with Xing Luo.
During this period, I will simply serve as a liaison between your Qiling Tower and the Xingluo Royal Family. You can also let me sign your Qiling Tower's unique contract to ensure that I will not disclose any of your Qiling Tower's secrets."
