Terra Su initially wanted to go inside, but paused when he heard the words, and said calmly, “What did you say?”
“I’m talking to you, bumpkin, get lost.” The attendant didn’t even look and swung a punch.
However, before the punch could get close to Terra Su, he casually waved his sleeve, and a powerful wave of True Essence surged out, sending the attendant flying, crashing headfirst into a nearby boulder, leaving him bleeding profusely.
“My friend, we’re all here to dine at the Sleeping Moon Tower, there’s no need for such anger.”
A young man, adorned with jewels and looking quite handsome, albeit with a somewhat pretentious demeanor that undermined his overall charisma, stepped down from the sedan chair.
The young man didn’t even glance at the attendant who had been sent flying, but instead focused his gaze on Terra Su, saying nonchalantly, “However, you did injure my attendant. Shouldn’t you provide an explanation?”
“What kind of explanation do you want?”
Terra Su shrugged.
The young man scrutinized Terra Su from head to toe, frowning slightly, and said, “Wait, who are you? The Sleeping Moon Tower has been reserved by the Third Prince tonight. If you’re not an invited guest, you have no right to enter.”
Terra Su chuckled softly, “Do I need to report to you who I am?”
With that, Terra Su ignored him and turned to walk into the Sleeping Moon Tower.
“Hold on.”
The young man swiftly blocked Terra Su’s path, saying coldly, “Not just anyone can enter the Sleeping Moon Tower. State your identity, or else I have the authority to stop you on behalf of the Third Prince.”
“Move aside.”
Terra Su said calmly.
“So, you’re going to ignore my words?”
The young man’s eyebrows raised, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted from him. His cultivation level had reached the third tier of the Transforming Realm.
Just then, a woman emerged from the Sleeping Moon Tower. Her figure was curvaceous, with all the right curves in all the right places, her skin was snow-white, and she was so alluring that one couldn’t help but swallow.
The woman stepped out and saw the young man, surprised, “Oh, why is Young Master Lou standing outside? Did something happen?”
“It’s Miss Xueying.”
The young man quickly softened his expression upon seeing her and smiled, “It’s nothing, just dealing with someone trying to sneak into the Sleeping Moon Tower.”
Upon hearing this, the woman turned her gaze to Terra Su and then showed a look of surprise, “Young Master Su?”
Terra Su wasn’t surprised she knew his name. He was an honored guest invited by the Third Prince, who would have made arrangements to prevent him from being stopped outside the Sleeping Moon Tower.
However, the young man was quite shocked, looking at Miss Xueying and then at Terra Su in astonishment, “Miss Xueying, do you know him?”
“Young Master Lou, this is Young Master Terra Su, a distinguished guest of the Third Prince.”
Miss Xueying smiled as she approached Terra Su, “Young Master Su, you’ve arrived. The Third Prince has been waiting for you for a long time, please follow me inside.”
“A distinguished guest of the Third Prince?”
Young Master Lou looked on in disbelief as Miss Xueying warmly welcomed Terra Su into the Sleeping Moon Tower.
Could it be that this guy has a significant background?
Young Master Lou instinctively swallowed, bewildered, as he followed them into the Sleeping Moon Tower.
Inside the Sleeping Moon Tower, the Third Prince had reserved the entire place for the night, and many young elites had already gathered.
When they saw Terra Su, their expressions turned curious.
“Who is this guy?”
“No idea, why did Miss Xueying personally welcome him?”
“Miss Xueying is a close confidante of the Third Prince, she rarely goes out to greet guests. It’s strange, who is this person that the Third Prince would send Miss Xueying to welcome him?”
The attendees speculated about Terra Su’s identity, as it was unusual for the Third Prince to send Miss Xueying to greet someone, sparking their curiosity.
The Third Prince smiled as he saw Terra Su and approached him warmly.
“Haha, Young Master Su, you finally made it.”
The Third Prince said, introducing Terra Su to the crowd, “Everyone, let me introduce you. This is Young Master Terra Su, a close friend of Grandmaster Huang from the Heavenly Elixir Hall, and he has close ties with Dean Jackson Guo of the Elixir Path division at Anyang Academy and Grandmaster Bruce Sun of the Alchemy Guild.”
Gasp!
The crowd collectively gasped, hardly believing their ears.
To be on such close terms with three giants in the field of alchemy, one must possess extraordinary abilities.
Instantly, the crowd’s gaze towards Terra Su shifted from initial curiosity to a mix of intrigue, respect, and admiration.
The Third Prince smiled, having invited Terra Su to the gathering precisely for this moment.
The attendees were all from prominent families in Anyang City. While not the heads of their families, they were influential young members whose opinions could significantly impact family decisions.
In essence, the Third Prince’s gathering was similar to the Crown Prince’s yacht banquet, aimed at showcasing his abilities and winning over support.
If these people knew the Third Prince had connections with someone like Terra Su, it would undoubtedly aid him in garnering support.
In short, both the Crown Prince and the Third Prince saw Terra Su as a valuable card, and it was a matter of who could ultimately secure it.
“Young Master Su, please take a seat.”
The Third Prince warmly arranged for Terra Su to sit at his table.
At this moment, Young Master Lou entered with a sullen expression.
“Brother Lou, you’re late.”
The Third Prince greeted Young Master Lou with a smile, showing familiarity.
Young Master Lou’s full name was Lou Jun, a direct descendant of the Lou family, the second-ranking family in Anyang City. The Lou family was currently a key target for the Third Prince’s efforts to win over.
If he could secure the support of the Lou family, the Third Prince’s power would leap to a new level, significantly increasing his chances of successfully vying for the throne.
This was because the Lou family’s position was crucial. With the top-ranking Mu family yet to declare their allegiance, if the second-ranking Lou family chose a side, the prince they supported would have a great chance of succeeding in the power struggle.
The Third Prince was actively courting the Lou family, so he treated Lou Jun with great warmth.
