His Highness the Crown Prince Always Wants to Marry Me

Chapter 221: Protect From Behind

Yu Qing Qian was surprised when she heard Feng Chen’s words.

One must know that in the Central Continent, the Three Great Empires and the Seven Great Spiritual Plant Clans were the top existences. There was actually a secret force who ‘stole food from their mouths’, which meant that the secret force was very extraordinary.

“What secret force?”

Feng Chen replied: “Ten years ago, an organisation named Mo Tian Hall¹ appeared. Their leader was called the Demon Emperor², with strength and means said to be unfathomable. Five of the Seven Major Spiritual Plant Clans wanted to form an alliance to eradicate them, but all ended in failure.”

“Mo Tian Hall is very powerful. In the past ten years, it’s spread to every corner of this Continent. It has the most powerful intelligence organisation and has also established an Underground Palace to collect the continent’s top spiritual items and rare treasures, holding auctions regularly.”

He paused, then continued: “Mo Tian Hall developed too fast, and there are so many advanced-level powerhouses in it. The Three Great Empires and Seven Great Spiritual Plant Clans wanted to stop it, but they couldn’t. They could only turn a blind eye and let it continue to grow. And the treasures that appear in the Underground Palace are also in great demand from the various major clans.”

Yu Qing Qian’s eyes revealed a brilliant light, and she became interested in Mo Tian Hall.

“I’ve heard of the Underground Palace, the largest trading organisation in the entire Continent and a high-end place of indulgent.” Yu Qing Qian continued: “But I didn’t expect that the Underground Palace is actually in the sphere of influence of Mo Tian Hall. Do you know who the Demon Emperor is?”

“The identity of the Demon Emperor is too mysterious. The Three Great Empires and the Seven Great Spiritual Plant Clans have been infiltrating and conducting and investigations for a decade, but no useful information has been obtained.” Feng Chen revealed some admiration in his eyes, “But the Demon Emperor is indeed a talent. To be able to build the Mo Tian Hall into an organisation that can compete with the Three Great Empires and the Seven Great Spiritual Plant Clans within ten years is unprecedented across the entire Continent.”

“Indeed very amazing.” Yu Qing Qian nodded and said with a smile: “But one day, the organisation I establish will also be famous across the Continent.”

In front of Feng Chen, Yu Qing Qian rarely hid her true temperament. Besides her own origin, she basically hid nothing else.

“I also believe you can do it.” Feng Chen’s picturesque and delicate brows were stained with a smile.

His Qian Qian had always been a person who was unwilling to be ordinary. She could definitely do whatever she puts her mind to.

At any time, he would stand behind her to support and protect her.

Three days later, the second freshmen experience kicked off. The location was still in the Thorn Valley Mountain Range, but this time, it wasn’t just the outer zone. Students were required to enter the inner zone to search for the mission items.

Yu Qing Qian’s ten-person team gradually became more and more unified during this training experience, and their cooperation became more and more tacit. They became a sharp knife among the freshmen teams, sweeping down everything they passed.

After Yu Qing Qian’s unearthing of talents and her designated combat plans, they overcame all obstacles along the way. Not only did they complete the mission, but they also killed many magical beasts and demonic plants, obtaining abundant crystal core resources, and also won first place in the training experience.

At the same time, it also shocked and excited the entire freshmen of the Royal Academy, making one exceptionally envious.

Time flew by, and a year and a half had passed.

During this period, Yu Qing Qian placed most of her energy into plant inscriptions and potions, and successfully broke through to advanced-level in both, which made the Black-White Department Leaders and Zhan Wan Yue extremely happy, but the news was constantly hidden and not leaked.

So except for a few people, no one else knew Yu Qing Qian’s true level.

In addition to the great improvement in plant inscriptions and potions, Yu Qing Qian’s cultivation base had also successfully entered Nine-leaf Spirit Warrior with the help of countless crystal cores, the resources provided by the Academy, and poison provided by Feng Chen, with only one step away from Spirit General.

Yu Qing Qian not only became the number one genius among the freshmen, but was also not outdone by the old students.

Meanwhile, Feng Chen also left the Royal Academy a year ago and went to cultivate in the Holy Academy.

¹Mo Tian (摩天) actually means ‘sky-scraping’, like a skyscraper would be called ‘摩天大厦/楼’, a Ferris wheel is called ‘摩天轮’. They’re high and lofty, so based on this, you could see how imposing and majestic it’s meant to be. It sounds weird if I wrote Sky Scraping Hall. Maybe Heaven-scraping Hall/Palace? Or Heaven Hall? Ooh, Heaven-reaching Hall? Leave it as pin’yin? I feel like the pin’yin sounds better.

Google has been translating it to Sky Tower, Heaven Palace hahaha.

²here the word for ‘demon’ is 魔 (mo). Same ‘mo’ as that for ‘Demon’ Emperor Herb and Nine-Coloured ‘Magic’ Lotus. Magic Emperor clearly wouldn’t sound right nor imposing enough hahaha.
