Shi Rong said excitedly, "Third Brother, this is where I have to say something to you. Why didn't you agree to this right away?"
Shi Min glanced back at Biyuan and said, “We have a grudge against Queen Medusa and the others because of our eighth brother’s matter, but apart from that, there is no irreconcilable enmity between the two clans. There is no need to go too far. In addition, the Second Prince and the Crown Prince are now fighting for power and are both secretly trying to win us over. I am worried that if I help the Crown Prince, I will completely side with him and make enemies of the Second Prince.”
Shi Rong snorted, "That Second Prince is despicable. At first, he spoke up for us when we had the upper hand, but then he immediately switched sides after we lost. It's disgusting!"
Lion's face darkened: "If he's ruthless, then don't blame me for being unjust. Anyway, it's a foregone conclusion that Crown Prince Golden Crow will inherit the throne of the Demon Emperor. What's wrong with us completely siding with the Crown Prince?"
Lion King said with concern, "However, I am worried that it will be difficult to deal any blow to the Snake Clan on the stage. The Snake Clan has kept a low profile all these years, and the only representative is the clan leader. If they do not participate in the selection, it will be difficult for us to deal with them."
"Don't worry about that. We just received intelligence that they sent three members of their tribe to participate in the election this time, including Yanzu and two women, who should be the two women who were with Queen Medusa today," Shimin replied.
Shi Rong clenched his fists so tightly they cracked: "That's perfect. I'll cripple that brat completely and make him regret being so arrogant today."
Lion King chuckled and said, "Those two women beside Queen Medusa may be a bit plain-looking, but their figures are absolutely stunning, and the longer you look at them, the more unique their charm becomes. I'll deal with them when the time comes."
"Are you going crazy?" Lion's Compassion laughed and scolded. "But those two women are indeed a bit special, though I can't quite put my finger on what makes them different."
The group discussed how to deal with the snake clan, and their mood immediately improved, the gloom they felt at Biyuan earlier vanished.
Meanwhile, in the Biyuan Garden, everyone congratulated Yu Yanluo. Yu Yanluo naturally wouldn't miss this good opportunity to strengthen relations with various races.
Shang Liuyu then took the opportunity to approach Zuan: "Your mask is quite unique."
"What is the princess saying? I don't understand." Zu An glanced at the distance. Although Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue pretended not to care, their ears seemed to be perked up, paying attention to the situation.
Shang Liuyu smiled faintly: "You rascal, no matter how you change your appearance, you can't get rid of that scoundrel aura about you."
Zuan laughed, "Sister, you understand me best. I didn't expect to see you here. Although I had guessed before, I only know now that you are the mermaid princess of the sea tribe." "It's just an identity. I rarely stay in the sea tribe. I spend most of my time living among humans," Shang Liuyu seemed to be thinking about something, her expression showing some regret, but she quickly recovered. "I didn't expect that you would still come to the royal court despite the danger."
"I know your previous warning was reasonable, but I also have my reasons for coming." Zuan pondered how he would get into the unknown place within the imperial mausoleum.
Shang Liuyu glanced at Yu Yanluo, who was surrounded by admirers in the distance: "Is it because of her? She is indeed a very charming person. Whether among humans or demons, she is always the center of attention."
Clearly, she had often heard of this most beautiful woman in the capital when she was among the human race.
Zuan knew she had misunderstood, but he didn't explain.
Soon, the Little Golden Roc King walked over and asked curiously, "What are you talking about over here, Princess?"
"I'm a little curious how he figured out there was a divine treasure inside this rock," Shang Liuyu casually offered a reason.
"Oh, now that you mention it, I'm curious too." Little Golden Roc King's gaze fell on Zu An. Although Yu Yanluo had chosen that stone, after the stone was opened, even the Biyuan steward was fooled, but he was able to find Hongyuan Jiejin among a bunch of broken stones. His eyesight was truly extraordinary.
Zuan looked bewildered: "I just guessed randomly, maybe I'm just incredibly lucky."
Shang Liuyu's lips curled up slightly.
Little Golden Roc King: "..."
If this person was pretending to be stupid, he would arrogantly say that he had incredible luck. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the other person was unwilling to talk or was really lucky.
After this interruption, Shang Liuyu returned to the other side, worried that staying by Zu'an's side would bring him unnecessary trouble.
After some time, Yu Yanluo bid farewell to everyone and left Biyuan. The Biyuan steward personally saw them off and even hinted that if they wanted to sell Hongyuan Jiejin in the future, Biyuan could offer a very generous price.
On the way back, the group discussed the matter, and Zu An laughed and said, "This Biyuan is not simple either. Before, when we were in Xianzijian, we clearly heard that the Second Prince wanted to buy it, but he still tried to poach his talent behind his back."
Yu Yanluo replied, "This Biyuan is indeed very mysterious, but so far they seem to be quite friendly towards us, so we don't need to worry about them for the time being. On the contrary, the Tiger Clan seems to be trying their best to win us over because of our conflict with the Lion Clan."
"The Tiger Clan and the Lion Clan have always been vying for the title of Beast King, but neither is willing to concede to the other. Now that their strengths are evenly matched, it's probably difficult to determine a winner. We can befriend the Tiger Clan, but we shouldn't let them use us as a scapegoat to deal with the Lion Clan," Zu'an analyzed.
Yu Yanluo nodded slightly; she thought so too.
"Compared to Biyuan and the Tiger Clan, I'm more curious about how you knew there was a treasure inside that broken rock?" Yun Jianyue was very annoyed. Yan Xuehen had clearly said that she would ask directly, but she had been pretending to be dead for so long and hadn't said a word. This made Yun Jianyue so anxious that her blood pressure was rising. So she simply asked directly.
