Chapter 2140: Red Sparrow
When Shen Xiang saw that the woman in red was blocked outside the door by Xiao Baifeng, he realized that Xiao Baifeng and the woman in red did not have a good relationship. This made him a little confused. Xiao Baifeng had followed Xiao Yulan since she was a child and had stayed in the Emperor Jiu Palace for a long time, but she did not have any trustworthy friends!
"Can't you let me in to talk?" The woman in red was not angry. She just stuck out her tongue and smiled.
"Did the princess send you here?" Xiao Baifeng was still cold and did not welcome the woman in red at all.
"Yes, she asked me to come and talk to you about something, and by the way, let me see this man called Shen Fei." The woman in red laughed and said, "Why? Are you afraid that I will seduce him away?"
Xiao Baifeng snorted and made way for her to come in.
The woman in red walked into the hall, and she opened her big watery eyes wide, looking at Shen Xiang curiously, as if she had seen something magical.
"Xiao Hongque, if you have anything to say, just tell me!" Xiao Baifeng said, "He is very tired today and needs to rest early."
Xiao Baifeng was very unhappy at this moment, not because of seeing Xiao Hongque, but because she felt that Xiao Yulan did not pay enough attention to Shen Xiang, which would cause Shen Xiang to miss a good opportunity in the next big competition, because Shen Xiang needed resources now, but she did not have them, so she could only hope that Xiao Yulan could provide some.
Now that she saw Xiao Hongque coming without any sincerity, she understood that Xiao Yulan just asked her to come and take a look. If Xiao Yulan really valued Shen Xiang, she would definitely send someone to talk to her.
"The princess asked me to inquire about Shen Fei's background because he is too mysterious. The princess won't feel at ease unless she knows him well. You should be clear about the princess's character. She has always been so cautious! Don't blame the princess. The princess is doing this for your own good. She doesn't want you to be deceived! You need to train your own people now. She understands this very well, but she is worried that you will be too eager for quick success..." Xiao Hongque looked at Shen Xiang and made a naughty face at him.
Chen Xiang smiled and said: "Big sister, when you say these words, just transmit them through voice transmission. There is no need for me to hear them!"
"I just want you to hear it. What do you think?" Xiao Hongque giggled: "Tell me about it."
"I'm a good person!" Shen Xiang laughed: "Believe it or not!"
"Do you have any proof? Even if I believe it, but the princess doesn't believe it and is worried, there is nothing I can do! If you really want to be favored by the princess, you'd better tell her your purpose honestly. Don't think that the princess can't see that you have other purposes for coming here." Xiao Hongque came to Shen Xiang and said with a sweet smile.
Xiao Baifeng was a little angry: "Hongque, please leave quickly! Go back and tell the princess that I can handle this kind of thing myself and she doesn't need to worry about it."
During the few days she spent with Chen Xiang, she thought she knew him very well. She believed in her instincts and believed that Chen Xiang would never harm her. Moreover, Chen Xiang had great potential. This was a chance for her to turn things around! In addition, being with Chen Xiang and Yue'er made her feel a kind of happiness she had never experienced before. She herself didn't know why, but she felt very relaxed when she was with Chen Xiang. She didn't need to be wary of him!
"Sister Bai Feng, I know you haven't made any breakthroughs in these years, and I'm a little anxious! But you can't let this get to your head, we all understand you!" Xiao Hongque frowned slightly, turned her head and glanced at Shen Xiang.
Chen Xiang touched his nose and said, "You mean, Jade Tripod God King is suspicious of me? She is worried that I have impure motives for entering Emperor Nine Palace?"
"Exactly! So you'd better cooperate and tell us why you're here! If you really want to join Yuding Palace, we will give you the greatest help so that you can make smooth progress in the way of alchemy. Now you should know very well that your own strength is not enough." Xiao Hongque put away the sweet smile on her face and said very directly.
"My purpose of entering here is just to meet Jade Ding Divine King and become her subordinate! I am telling the truth, believe it or not, before I met Sister Bai Feng, I didn't know how to refine a mid-grade divine pill. It was she who gave me the divine medicine that allowed me to learn it! So now I have a second goal, which is to grow up as quickly as possible and help Sister Bai Feng become stronger." Shen Xiang sighed: "If you still don't believe it, then I have no choice but to give up the first goal and achieve the second goal."
"Don't you want to see the princess now?" Xiao Hongque asked. She was also aware of the charm of her princess. Many powerful people came here because of her reputation. Some of them had never even seen Xiao Yulan, but were willing to work for her.
"It doesn't matter if I don't meet her. I'm just a humble nobody. It's normal for her to ignore me, look down on me, and disdain to see me, so I think it's better to forget it! For me now, helping Sister Bai Feng become stronger is easier than meeting Jade Ding Divine King." Shen Xiang was also angry in his heart. The purpose of his coming here was to save his wife.
The Jade Ding God King was so domineering that he kidnapped Xue Xianxian, Liu Meng'er and others. If he had the power, he would have killed Emperor Jiugong long ago and would not have to go to such great lengths to save his wife like he is now.
"Now it seems that you are the one who doesn't take my princess seriously! You are so arrogant, aren't you afraid that we will kick you out?" Xiao Hongque said coldly, her attitude became very bad, because she could tell that Shen Xiang was angry, and his tone really showed that he didn't take Xiao Yulan seriously.
"Want to drive me away? Go ahead. Anyway, I have to achieve my second goal and there is no need for me to stay here." Shen Xiang did not give her a good look and stood up.
"Hongque, if you still treat me as your sister, then leave quickly and pretend nothing happened today! This is my business. If the princess wants to drive him away, then I will go with him." Xiao Baifeng's voice was filled with anger.
Xiao Hongque glared at Chen Xiang fiercely, then looked at Xiao Baifeng tenderly and sighed faintly: "Okay, I'll leave now!"
After Xiao Hongque left, Shen Xiang snorted: "This woman is not someone who can do big things. I used to think that Jade Tripod God King was so powerful, but now he is just so-so!"
"You are not allowed to say anything about the princess!" Xiao Baifeng said, "The princess is so concerned about your background, she must have her own ideas."
Chen Xiang sneered and said, "If she really needs talents now, she shouldn't put on such a condescending attitude! She cares so much about my background, uses everything to investigate, and even sends this little red bird to turn against you, but she herself is unwilling to come? She cares so much about me, will she die if she comes to see me!"
"You..." Xiao Baifeng didn't know what to say to refute Shen Xiang. Xiao Yulan did care about Shen Xiang, but she just didn't want to come here on her own. This was exactly as Shen Xiang said, Xiao Yulan couldn't let go of her attitude to meet Shen Xiang.
