"I apologize for keeping you all waiting."
Li Jing cupped his hands in greeting to Shao Haoling and the others.
The man in the blue robe glanced at Li Jing in surprise, then stepped back.
He secretly wondered what Li Jing's true identity was, that he could command such attention from Duanmu Yuan, the thirteenth prince Shao Haoling, and others.
"Brother Li, you're too kind. We just arrived."
Shao Haoling said with a smile.
"Yes, Brother Li, there's no need to be so polite with them."
Duanmu Yuan smiled slightly and said to Li Jing.
Li Jing nodded and walked into the pavilion with Duanmu Yuan, where they sat down on a chair.
"Brother Li, please let Brother Nangong and the others sit down as well."
Duanmu Yuan looked at Nangong Yijian, Lü Chunyang, and Feng Qingyan standing behind Li Jing, and said to him.
"Yes, Brother Li, Brother Nangong, it will be more lively if we all sit down together."
Chen Chuan's face showed approval.
Shao Haoling and the others also looked at Li Jing, their faces showing approval.
Although Nangong Yijian and the other two were said to be Li Jing's guards and maids, no one looked down on them because of their status.
In their eyes, Nangong Yijian and his two companions were undoubtedly the most outstanding talents of their time, and were qualified to sit with them.
“Nangong Yijian, Lü Chunyang, Yan Qingfeng, the three of you sit down as well.”
Li Jing spoke to Nangong Yijian and the other two.
"Thank you, young master."
Nangong Yijian and the other two thanked Li Jing and sat down in the empty seats next to him.
Clearly, Duanmu Yuan had already spoken to Shao Haoling and the others beforehand, so the three seats next to Li Jing were empty, reserved for Nangong Yijian and his two companions.
After Nangong Yijian and the other two sat down, Shao Haoling, Chen Chuan, Cai You, and Liang Yifeng each took out a jade box and handed it to Li Jing. These were the top-grade divine medicines they had promised.
Li Jing didn't stand on ceremony with Shao Haoling and the other two, and accepted the gifts directly.
After watching Li Jing put away the top-grade divine medicines given to Shao Haoling and the other two, Duanmu Yuancai looked at Shao Haoling and asked, "Thirteenth Prince, when will Her Highness the Eldest Princess arrive?"
When in front of Shao Haoling and the others, Duanmu Yuan was not as casual as he was in front of Li Jing, and he was much more respectful to Shao Hao Luoyang, the eldest princess of the Eastern Heavenly Dynasty.
After all, this one is the eldest princess of the Eastern Heavenly Dynasty, the second most powerful woman in the army, and in charge of the 50 million-strong capital garrison of the Eastern Heavenly Dynasty. She is a true figure of real power.
"We should be there soon."
"Once my elder sister has finished handling the affairs of the Beijing Garrison, she should be coming over soon."
Shao Haoling considered it for a moment before speaking.
Upon hearing Shao Haoling's words, Duanmu Yuan nodded and began chatting with Li Jing and the others.
A moment later.
A figure appeared out of thin air outside Qinglian Residence.
This was a handsome man dressed in black, exuding a dashing air.
Li Jing immediately recognized that this person was Shao Hao Luo Yang, the eldest princess of the Eastern Heavenly Dynasty, who was disguised as a man.
Because of her aura, the aura emanating from her body had reached an extremely terrifying level.
He couldn't help but marvel; as expected of Shao Hao Luo Yang, one of the four great prodigies of the Eastern Heavenly Dynasty.
Her cultivation level is probably above the seventh level of the God King realm.
"Greetings, Your Highness the Eldest Princess."
Li Jing and the others stood up and bowed to Shao Hao Luo Yang.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Shao Haoling bowed respectfully to her elder sister, who shared the same mother.
"No need for such formalities."
"I am no longer the eldest princess, I am just Shaohao Luoyang, here to welcome Brother Li."
Shao Hao Luo Yang smiled and said to Li Jing and the others.
Her gaze was already fixed on Li Jing, Nangong Yijian, Lü Chunyang, and Feng Qingyan.
She was filled with amazement. Not to mention Li Jing, just the three of them—Nangong Yijian, Lü Chunyang, and Feng Qingyan—gave her the impression that they were no less than Yan Beixuan, the newly appointed champion and one of the four great talents of their Eastern Heavenly Dynasty.
Li Jing gave her a huge sense of threat.
Her cultivation level was different from Shao Haoling and the others; she was a true peak of the seventh level of the God King Realm. Therefore, she could see more than Shao Haoling and the others.
The jade hairpin atop Li Jing's head possessed astonishing sword intent, and there were nine different kinds of it. She could even sense space and time.
Others might have made a mistake, but Shao Hao Luo Yang would never have!
She has cultivated a spiritual eye technique, and has already reached an extremely profound level in it.
Besides, the black dragon-patterned ring on Li Jing's left thumb is definitely not the storage ring that Shao Haoling told her about!
This is a real dragon!
Although this true dragon's cultivation level was a bit low, it was only at the first level of True God Realm.
But it is also a real dragon.
Given time, reaching the Divine Emperor Realm, or even the Divine Sovereign Realm, is not impossible!
Although it would take countless resources to raise a real dragon to this level, at least there is such an opportunity.
More importantly, with her cultivation level at the peak of the seventh level of the Divine King Realm, she not only couldn't discern Li Jing's cultivation level, but she could also sense a tremendous threat emanating from him.
So, what level of cultivation has this person reached?
Upon hearing Shao Hao Luo Yang's words, Shao Hao Ling and the others breathed a sigh of relief, revealing expressions of immense relief.
After all, Shao Hao Luo Yang's status and cultivation level were too high, so even her half-brother Shao Hao Ling felt immense pressure in front of her.
"This must be Brother Li, whom Little Thirteen greatly admires?"
Shao Hao Luo Yang looked at Li Jing with burning eyes and said, "Indeed, he has the appearance of an immortal and can be called a first-class figure in this world."
Throughout the entire Eastern Wilderness, there are probably very few young people who can compare to Brother Li.
Upon hearing this, Shao Haoling and the others were stunned for a moment, their faces showing shock.
They all knew that Shao Hao Luo Yang had always had very high standards.
Even Yan Beixuan could not receive such high praise from Shao Hao Luo Yang.
"Your Highness is too kind. I am indeed Li Jing."
Li Jing smiled calmly and said casually.
"It's not an exaggeration at all."
"In my opinion, Brother Li's talent is not only no less than that of the holy sons and daughters of the Holy Land."
"And it's even worse!"
Shao Hao Luo Yang said with a serious expression.
Li Jing smiled and said, "The princess's talent and aptitude are no less than those of the holy sons and daughters of the holy land. In my opinion, many of the holy sons and daughters of the holy land are far inferior to the princess."
"..."
Shao Haoling and the others were once again shocked by Shao Hao Luoyang's words.
It seems that their befriending Li Jing was definitely the best thing they've ever done.
However, considering that Li Jing's sword intent had reached a perfect level, they felt that Shao Hao Luo Yang's evaluation of him was absolutely true and not an exaggeration at all.
Given Shaohao Luoyang's status and strength, there is no need for him to praise Li Jing.
