Chapter 194 Prince
At the City Gate of Yongbing Wangcheng, Luo Tianyou had been waiting for a long time. Yang Chen hurried forward, slightly cupping his fists, and said, “Taishan Lord.”
“Ha ha, Yang Chen, come, let’s go to my residence. You’ve only been in Yongbing City for a short time, yet your romantic history has already spread. Truly a sentimental emperor of our time,” Luo Tianyou said loudly.
“Taishan Lord, you flatter me,” Yang Chen replied helplessly.
“Hmph, you just arrived in Yongbing City, and already caused such a stir over Sister Mingyue. It seems that in your heart, I am not as important as Sister Mingyue,” Roxie said jealously.
“Xier sister is joking; how could I compare to the weight you hold in brother-in-law's heart?” Tian Mingyue quickly said.
“Both of you don’t need to push and pull; in my heart, all of you are equally important!” Yang Chen stepped forward and wrapped his arms around the waists of Tian Mingyue and Roxie.
“Go away!” Roxie rolled her eyes, while Tian Mingyue slightly lowered her head, wearing a blissful expression. Yang Chen quietly released his hold on Tian Mingyue's right hand and took out a piece of white Ore Moonstone, gently...
“Xier, you misunderstood me; who said I didn’t buy you anything? It’s just that what I bought for you couldn’t be found at the Treasure Pavilion,” Yang Chen whispered.
“Really?” Roxie stopped in her tracks, staring blankly at Yang Chen, her face filled with anticipation. Tian Mingyue also looked at him. With a slight smile, Yang Chen released his hold on Roxie's left hand and took out a piece of sky blue Star Sea Stone, quietly...
“This set consisting of a bracelet, necklace, and earrings is called Angel's Heart. It’s for the angel in my heart,” Yang Chen said softly.
Both Tian Mingyue and Roxie gazed at the three pieces of jewelry in Yang Chen’s hand, radiating pure and holy light. Suddenly, Roxie hugged Yang Chen, softly saying, “I will forever be your angel.” Yang Chen stored the items from his left hand into the Demon God Ring, then gently embraced Roxie, saying, “We can talk later; Taishan Lord is watching us. Now, let me put this on for you.”
Upon glancing at her father watching from a distance, Roxie felt shy and could not refuse when she heard that Yang Chen wanted to put on the Angel's Heart. She suppressed her shyness and said, “Okay.”
Yang Chen took Roxie's left hand and took out a white angel bracelet to put it on her. He then adorned her with earrings and a necklace. After finishing with the necklace, Yang Chen tightly embraced Roxie from behind and asked, "Xier, do you like it?"
"Yes, as long as it's from my husband, Xier likes it," Roxie shyly replied. Yang Chen gently kissed Roxie's earlobe and then released her, walking over to Tian Mingyue and saying, "The owner of the Treasure Pavilion secretly told me that there are actually three pieces of the Heart of the Ocean, but he has only collected one. Fortunately, I gathered the other two earlier: the Ocean Bracelet and the Ocean Ring." As Yang Chen spoke, he took out two azure bracelets and earrings from the Demon God Ring.
"Ah," Tian Mingyue exclaimed in surprise.
"Mingyue, let me put this on for you," Yang Chen said softly. Tian Mingyue glanced at Roxie, who smiled back and nodded slightly, then she quietly replied to Yang Chen, "Okay."
"Haha," Yang Chen laughed heartily as he helped Tian Mingyue wear them.
"Thank you, husband," Tian Mingyue said happily.
"Husband, Sister Mingyue, shall we go? We can talk more in the royal city," Roxie said with a smile, her face still glowing with happiness.
"Everything is up to my sister," Tian Mingyue nodded in agreement.
"Haha, let's go," Luo Tianyou said loudly while giving Yang Chen a discreet thumbs-up. Yang Chen could only smile faintly in response.
In Yongbing Wangcheng,
"Yang Chen, no matter what you're here for in Yongbing City, first accompany me for a couple of drinks," Luo Tianyou said as soon as they entered the lord's mansion of Yongbing Wangcheng.
"Alright, since Lord Taishan is interested, I have no reason not to accompany you," Yang Chen nodded in agreement. "Father," Roxie chided lightly.
"Haha, don't worry; it won't interfere with your important matters tonight," Luo Tianyou said deliberately emphasizing 'important matters.' Yang Chen shook his head bitterly, knowing that the Yongbing people were all this bold and carefree, so he chose not to correct him.
"Hmph, I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going to arrange the banquet." Luo Xi hurriedly ran out.
"Sister Qian'er, I'll accompany you," Tian Mingyue said.
"Okay."
"Celestial Emperor, I'm going out for some fresh air," Yao Tianshang also said with understanding.
"No need," Yang Chen rejected.
"Celestial Emperor, I request to go out for some fresh air," Yao Tianshang requested again.
Yang Chen glanced at Yao Tianshang, then nodded and said, "Alright!"
"I take my leave," Yao Tianshang said respectfully.
"Taishan Lord," Yang Chen said.
"Are you looking to take over my Yongbing Eighteen Cities?" Luo Tianyou directly pointed out.
"That's right, I want to take over Yongbing Eighteen Cities," Yang Chen nodded and said.
"The Yongbing Eighteen Cities were built through my hard work, struggling on the brink of life and death multiple times. How can I just give them to you?" Luo Tianyou said lightly.
"Just give? Then how can Taishan Lord hand over Yongbing Eighteen Cities to me?" Yang Chen inquired.
"I know that if you want to take it by force, within half a month, the Eighteen Cities will belong to your Shadow Killing Immortal Kingdom, but..." Luo Tianyou paused for a moment, then revealed two rows of white teeth and said with a grin:
"But you won't, so this is my bargaining chip."
Yang Chen nodded and said, "That's right, I won't turn against my own people, especially not against Qier's family."
"So, is Lord Taishan preparing to ask for an exorbitant price?"
"That's the idea. But you can negotiate the price down," Luo Tianyou replied with a smile.
"I'm curious how Lord Taishan plans to price it," Yang Chen said with a slight smile. "I will grant Lord Taishan the title of Third-Rank Duke, and all Yongbing will be under Lord Taishan's command. How does that sound?"
"Third-Rank? It has to be at least First-Rank!" Luo Tianyou quickly responded.
"First-Rank? How can the Eighteen Cities be exchanged for a Second-Rank Duke?" Yang Chen frowned and said, "And also command all the Yongbing?"
"Commanding billions of Yongbing?" Luo Tianyou suddenly fell into the trap set by Yang Chen.
"A First-Rank Duke who also commands all Yongbing? Then I will hand over the Eighteen Cities to you," Luo Tianyou hurriedly said. Yang Chen frowned and said, "Lord Taishan..."
"Stop wasting time, get straight to the point. As long as you agree, the Eighteen Cities will be yours!" Luo Tianyou interrupted.
"Have you made your decision?"
"Decision made!"
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"No regrets?"
"No regrets!"
"Good." Yang Chen immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, Taishan Lord."
"Uh, you have no regrets?" Luo Tianyou asked.
"How could I regret?" Yang Chen replied with a smile.
"I feel something is off," Luo Tianyou frowned and said.
"Haha, how could I let Taishan Lord suffer?" Yang Chen said, taking out the Celestial Ranking from the Demon God Ring and declaring, "Today, I appoint Luo Tianyou as Yongbing Wang, granting him the title of prince! Additionally, I bestow upon him twenty thousand acres of land in Lingxiao City to establish the Yongbing headquarters!"
"Boom!" A muffled thunder echoed in the sky.
"Uh, prince? Isn't that a rank higher than duke?" Luo Tianyou exclaimed in surprise.
