Chapter 1566 - Untitled

Chapter 1566: Untitled Jun Wuxia wanted to slip away, but the chief steward was standing right next to her, and his keen gaze was on her.
She was certain that if she tried anything, the chief steward would expose her without hesitation. Fearing that things were about to go south, Jun Wuxia became fidgety.
As expected, Chieftain Senal looked from Feng Wu to Sefiro and asked Emperor Wu in bewilderment,
Isn’t she a slave?

Sefiro looked equally confused.
Emperor Wu smirked.
How can she be a slave? She’s Feng Wu, a registered princess of the Junwu Empire. She’s no less inferior to your Princess Sefiro!

Because Senal Grassland was a vassal state, its titles were one rank lower. A born princess of the grassland was equivalent to one bestowed the title by the Junwu Empire.
Sefiro was shocked when Emperor Wu said that.
So was Chieftain Senal!
Killing a slave was one thing, but a princess…
It could be called a little quarrel between two girls.
But it could also be as serious as an act of usurpation and ignoring the authority of the empire!

Your Majesty, is she a princess?
Chieftain Senal rose to his feet.
He wasn’t the only one surprised; Sefiro opened her eyes wide as well.
Staring at Sefiro, Chieftain Senal was filled with anger, and his voice was as cold as ice.
Apologize to the princess now!

Sefiro gritted her teeth.
She’s just a slave. How can she be a princess? Your Majesty, was she made a princess only recently?

Emperor Wu’s face darkened.
Chieftain Senal immediately rose to his feet and smacked Sefiro on the head. His face darkened and he said,
Nonsense! Apologize now!

Chieftain Senal and Emperor Wu had never been the best of friends, and the two of them had quarreled quite a bit over the seed of the spirit source. The current temporary truce was only the result of a compromise.
Their relationship was so fragile that it couldn’t withstand any turmoil. That was why Chieftain Senal was so alarmed.
However, Sefiro could only see the friendship on the surface and not the complicated political strife underneath. That was why she was behaving so willfully.
Sefiro sounded reluctant.
But Jun Wuxia told me herself that she was a slave!

Jun Wuxia?!
Emperor Wu stared at Jun Wuxia with cold eyes, and he looked very intimidating!
Jun Wuxia trembled and cringed, and soon realized that she couldn’t take the blame.
Her father already thought her guilty because of what happened to Feng Wu before, so she couldn’t afford to make any more mistakes.

Sefiro, you must be mistaken.
Jun Wuxia took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
Her face relaxed and she smiled a little, her eyes clear and innocent.
I did indeed mention Feng Wu to you and said that she was with my brother now, but —

Just because she’s with my brother doesn’t mean that she’s a slave, nor can it be denied that she’s a princess.

Sefiro stared at Jun Wuxia.
You… You didn’t tell me that she was a princess!

Jun Wuxia said,
I wanted to, but you rushed out before I had time to say anything. Plus —
