4 Chapter 2

So here's is the chapter enjoy!!!

•••••••••

The Blue Waves Kingdom was a kingdom that sat beside mountains and lay by the water, with an highly advantageous geographical location. It's population was numerous, it's people are honest and guileless. Hence, under the current situation where three countries stood in balance again each other, they held slight edge over the two kingdoms.

The reason that Blue Waves Kingdom had such an advantage was not just due to it superior geographical location but also in part because they had a farsighted Emperor.

The Blue Waves Kingdom also had the Duke of Internal Peace who who was invisible in battle. With just the name of Yan Su of there in the kingdom, it already drove fear into the hearts of the general from the other countries.

In recent years, his eldest son Yan Xi Cheng's reputation had been rising fast as well, having followed the Duke of Internal Peace to win quite a bit of merit in battle. Just twenty years of age and he had already been bestowed with the title of general, the place of place the Yan family had in Emperor's heart clearly evident.

"Princess, his Highness and the general will be returning back to the capital today and the entire place is already filled with citizens outside but you do not seem to be anxious in the slightest." A servant maid with two hairpins stuck in her hair muttered as she put on the last pearl hairpin for the lady.

The lady before the bronze mirror looked up, and it was a amazing sight.

The first thing that shone out before one's eyes was upon the flawlessly fair skin on her forehead, there was a faint pinkish bloom, that look exquisitely enchanting.

That was not a result of deliberate embellishment upon that fair skin, but a pristine and saintly flower that she had been born with, that flower had a beautiful name, called Ardent Violet.

A daughter born to the Enternal Peace Duke's Manor sixteen years old, where as good half of the sky had turned red then, then of the colorful clouds had formed to resemble a starting Phoenix.

The Blue Waves Emperor had been delighted and he immediately bestowed upon the newborn the title of Princess"Phoeni Essence", where he even went on to order a pre arranged engagement to the Crown Prince, Xuanyuan Che in marriage.

Yan Ning Luo proved to become worthy of being like a phoenix. She was gifted and intelligent, her body's constitution are highly outstanding, and she attracted the attention of Faint Most Sect's Sect Master, which was along the three biggest sects, who took her in as a direct desciple.

To the Blue Wave Kingdom, this was a matter of un paralleled honour and glory.

Yan Ning Luo was also an example the destiguised daughters of other noble families looked up to and not only men are infatuated and besotted with her, every ladies could not resist her charms and allure.

Added too that, Yan Ning Luo's personality was a little on the cold side. The countenance that could bring down cities together with that icy and snow demeanor made her seem like a untainted celestial goddess descended, which made it all so reasonable that she was so highly sought after and revered.

There servant maid at her back was still muttering on when Yan Ning Luo suddenly stood up, which made the servant maid jump in shock. Just as her eyes were staring wide and looking helpless, the lady's voice that was filled with grace and allure slowly wafted over. "let's go".

There servant girl then manage to react, fumbling as she hurried to pick up this veiled at the side. "Princess, would you like to veil your countenance? There's so many people out today, if you go just like that, you will definitely cause great furore".

"No worries, I will not show my self". Yan Ning Luo said indifferently, and then went walking out of the room. Her gaze then suddenly turned towards a particular corner, where eyes then darkened and she went on to order the maid. "On the day like this, remember to watch them closely. Better not allow them to leave the house at all"

"Yes, Princess"

The Duke of Internal Peace was highly favored by the Emperor and in terms of all things material like food, clothes and expenditure, no one else could compare to him except for the Imperial Palace itself.

But within the vast Duke's Manor, where everything was splendorous and majestic, a single place in there did not fit in with everything at all. The place was remote and quiet and besides the place the servant lived in, that was about the most crudely simple place in the entire manor.

Although the little courtyard was remote and very simple, but it was fantastically quiet and tranquil, as place where not many people usually come.

There was a stone table in the yard outside, and a young youth was seated there, quietly reading a book. He looked to be roughly about thirteen or fourteen of age, with as pair of exquisite looking eyes, there ends slanting upward attractively that were bright and lively. He had clear smooth skin, a pair of light pink lips under that straight high bridge nose.

The door of the house inside the place were suddenly opened and the youth subconsiously raised his head up to look and, then froze.

He saw the slender figure of youth, the purple clothes of him complimenting the jade like complexion of his face, exceptionally handsome looking. His long hair was bound up high with a hair ribbon, neatly without a single strand out of place. His looks were highly similar to the other youth, but compared to that dazzling and eye catching youth filled with kindly righteousness, the ends of this youth's eyes slanted up slightly higher, giving him an added devilish allure, just like a sly and cafty fox.

The first youth was stunned for a quite a while before he then said in bewilderment: "Qing Yu?"

This fine looking you here, isn't that Qing Yu cross dressed as a male?

Since her own biological younger brother could not properly recognize her, it was then thought the other people would not notice as thing even if she was face to face with them.

"Why are you dressed like this for?"

Qing Yu glanced at him."Your Royal father has returned, aren't you going out to welcome him?".

"He's also your Royal father".Qing Bei retorted with his brows creased together.

"I've said it many times. I am not the real Qing Yu. I came from another world, and am similarly named Qing Yu, and that is all"

"I don't care where you came from.You are Qing Yu, and you're my elder sister. Even if you are not, you are now occupying Qing Yu's body and that something you cannot deny."

In six years since Qing Yu had come to this strange world, this same charade would replay every once in awhile in their conversations with each other.

Especially from the moment after she healed his legs and he had stood up anew from his wheelchair, the eyes that stared at Qing Yu had suddenly seemed to have decided on something in that instant, where he had then since stuck to her like a plaster, while doing it and proclaiming it to be only proper and right.

The thing that Qing Bei could be certain of, was that this person definitely was not Qing Yu, and there were too many secrets on her that nobody knew anything about.

Like how she had managed to heal his crippled legs when even the palace's Imperial Physician had been helpless with, and also when black assassins had sneaked in to kill them but were dealt with by Qing Yu without alarming anyone in the end.

He only knew that she would not harm him, or she wouldn't have save him back then with no regard for her own safety.

Qing Yu met his eyes quietly for a while, before turning her head away as she said indifferently: "Change clothes. Go out."

For a girl about thirteen to fourteen years of age, it was thought that few were as tall and slender as Qing Yu. Hence, with her dressed as a male, nothing seemed out of place, but instead looked more like a male than the true blue male that Qing Bei was.

Anyway, Qing Bei had never ever met any girl that could be so... straight forward and candid.

With two outstanding looking youths appearing upon the streets, they immediately caused quite a bout furore.

Especially Qing Yu's pair of incredibly alluring eyes even when she did not deliberately tempt people, a mere casual glance from those eyes would easily crumble a great party of people.

All the young girls who eyes were shining brightly with hearts a flutter, they seemed to have forgotten that today was the day they were to welcome the Duke of Internal Peace returning back to the Imperial Capital, their attention completely captivated, waiting for one single glance from the youth to rest on them.

Because of his sudden appearance among them had made them mad with delight, the response they got only left them all the more disappointed and frustrated.

—Gathered Cloud Loft—

Finally escaping out from the squeezy crowd after much difficulty, even Qing Bei was feeling slightly out of breath at that moment.

It had already been two years since his legs had recovered but in order to not draw eyes and ears to himself, he never stood up to walk when anyone was around. With such a bout of exertion, he was clearly finding it a tad bit hard to withstand.

And the chief culprit that caused all of it in the first place, was not even today cheek not out of breath in the slightest.
