NOVEL NEXT WORLD chapter 90
Chapter 90: The Sixteenth Princess Doesn’t Seem to Be
“Sister, this inn seems very bad.” The Sixteenth Princess frowned cutely as she walked into the inn.
After she walked in, she subconsciously looked at the floor, which was a bit oily.
Although the innkeeper saw that the two princesses intended to come over and immediately made preparations, he still couldn’t satisfy them.
It was only natural, as this inn was not meant for people of high status.
“Yes, it’s much worse than the previous one.” The Eldest Princess lowered her eyelids. Even without looking carefully, she knew this inn was not good.
“Two princesses, I’ve cleared the entire third floor for you. You can stay there without being disturbed.” The innkeeper heard the two princesses’ evaluation of his inn but could only smile apologetically.
Some people staying in the inn glanced over intentionally or unintentionally, and the Sixteenth Princess immediately noticed.
“What are you looking at? Look again, and I’ll gouge out your eyes!” The Sixteenth Princess put her hands on her hips and snorted coldly.
Hearing such a threat, those people immediately withdrew their gazes.
No one wanted to challenge the Sixteenth Princess’s sharpness. If she wanted to gouge out someone’s eyes, she could easily do it.
They had no choice; they were in the Lie Kingdom, and she was a princess of the Lie Kingdom.
No matter how unruly this princess was, no one but the Emperor of the Lie Kingdom could control her.
“Changzhi, don’t say such things, it’s too barbaric.” The Eldest Princess touched the Sixteenth Princess’s hair and scolded gently.
“But, sister, their gazes really make me uncomfortable.” The Sixteenth Princess pouted.
The innkeeper stood awkwardly to the side, not daring to interrupt before the other party finished speaking.
From the moment the royal family members entered the inn, the atmosphere inside had become much more tense.
As ordinary passersby, they had no fondness for these overbearing royals.
Of course, even if they had any dissatisfaction, they could only hold it in, with an occasional cold snort being the limit.
“This way, please, this way, please.” The innkeeper finally waited for the two princesses to finish chatting and hurriedly said.
He didn’t even dare to let the waiter greet the princesses, preferring to do it himself to avoid any problems.
Offending the royal family would spell disaster not just for ordinary people, but even for most cultivators.
One must know that the royal family also had powerful cultivators on their payroll, and any cultivator who thought their high cultivation level allowed them to provoke the royals would be gravely mistaken.
As the innkeeper was about to lead the two princesses to the third floor, a door on the second floor opened.
Seeing this door open, the innkeeper nearly fainted from fright. Who could be so oblivious? Coming out at this time was asking for trouble!
It would be bad enough if they got into trouble themselves, but now even he would be in trouble.
Anyone staying at the inn who had any sense knew not to come out now.
At the very least, they should wait until the princesses had truly left before coming out.
And the guest who the innkeeper considered oblivious was none other than He Youzhou.
“You, you, you… why did you come out?” The innkeeper lowered his voice, winking at He Youzhou to convey the seriousness of the situation.
Unfortunately, He Youzhou had no idea what the innkeeper was trying to tell him.
“I just wanted to buy a late-night snack, is there a problem?” He Youzhou, with his hands hidden in his sleeves, looked puzzled.
He found that just reading comics was a bit dull, so he decided to buy some snacks.
In some scenes, he had seen people lying on the sofa, eating potato chips while reading comics.
There were no potato chips in this country, but He Youzhou thought any snack would do as a substitute.
“Then buy it later!” The innkeeper was anxious. “Please go back first and come out later.”
“Hmm?” He Youzhou tilted his head, not understanding why the innkeeper was trying to send him back to his room. “Why are you sending me back? Is there a curfew outside?”
“Are we still going up to the third floor?” The eldest princess asked, seeing the innkeeper had stopped to talk to a man who had come out of a room, and frowned.
It seemed that tonight would always be delayed by some matters, which made her a bit unhappy.
This question nearly made the innkeeper’s heart jump out of his chest. “This way, please…”
He Youzhou stood to the side, curiously watching the two girls with attendants behind them.
His sword had thoughtfully blocked all sounds for him, so he had no idea what was happening outside, engrossed in his comics.
Even though He Youzhou had only asked the sword to block the sounds from outside the window.
“Are you still looking?!” The Sixteenth Princess hated being stared at by strangers the most, so she put her hands on her hips and glared at He Youzhou.
“Um… why can’t you let me see you?” He Youzhou asked, not understanding why this girl had such a bad temper.
He could recognize the emblem on the carriage as belonging to the royal family, but that didn’t mean he could tell who was a member of the royal family.
So he didn’t understand who this girl was.
“Because you’re not worthy.” The sixteenth princess said like a wild little cat with its fur standing on end.
The attendants behind her exchanged glances, as if they were about to take action.
As the personal attendants of the sixteenth princess, they knew very well what she was thinking.
Although she wouldn’t really want to gouge out someone’s eyes, she would definitely show the person who displeased her a thing or two.
“Senior, wait a moment…” Just as the atmosphere was about to become tense, Lin Qingxue hurriedly came out of the room.
She had heard the argument between He Youzhou and the princesses from outside and felt that things were about to get serious, so she immediately came out and pulled He Youzhou, “These two are princesses.”
“Princesses?” He Youzhou looked at the two girls in front of him, a bit suspicious.
After a long while, he raised his head, feeling that he shouldn’t be arguing with children who were decades younger than him, “Hmm, little girl, I won’t stoop to your level.”
Hearing this, the eldest princess couldn’t help but narrow her eyes. To others, He Youzhou’s words were simply disrespectful.
However, the eldest princess didn’t want to waste too much time here. Someone would naturally make him understand the consequences of being disrespectful later.
“Let’s go, Changzhi.” The eldest princess patted her sister’s back and said softly.
“Sister, he called me a little girl!” The sixteenth princess said angrily.
But the eldest princess still pulled her upstairs, not wasting any more time on He Youzhou.
He Youzhou felt baffled, but quickly put the matter behind him.
He turned to Lin Qingxue and asked, “Do you want to have a late-night snack?”
