The palace doors were pushed open and a few women and girls walked in in single file. All of them possessed outstanding appearances, with Fu Yu in their lead.

Each of them carried a huge pile of what seemed like ancient books in their hands.

“Sir, the things you have requested are all here,” Fu Yu said with her head lowered. It seemed that she had a look of unwillingness present on her face, as though she was very reluctant to carry out these menial tasks.

Truthfully speaking, how would she be here if not for the Human Sovereign’s orders? Why would she do something a servant would normally do? She did not know what the Human Sovereign was thinking or why he would curry favour with this outsider to such a degree.

The displeasure in her heart was projected right on her face.

“Put them down over there,” sweeping his gaze across the group of people, Yang Kai discovered that the majority of these girls were familiar to his eyes, meaning that all of them were actually princesses. From the looks of it, Fu Yu was the oldest, with the youngest looking no more than fourteen or fifteen years of age. He did not see this little girl earlier in the palace, though her having six leaves was something that could not be faked. The youngest princess was obviously very curious; despite standing at the rear of the group, she continued to focus her big eyes on Yang Kai.

Being influenced by Fu Yu, her first impression of Yang Kai was that he was an exceedingly wicked and evil person; however, that didn’t seem to be the case from her initial impression of him. He possessed neither three heads nor six arms, leaving her wondering why her Eldest Sister held such hatred against him.

Yang Kai swept his gaze over and winked.

This scared the little princess, who hastily lowered her head and dropped the items in her hands.

“Do you have any other requests? If not, we will take our leave.” Fu Yu glared coldly at Yang Kai, her voice sounding hard and emotionless, a look of unwillingness still present on her face.

Yang Kai cast a sidelong glance at her, seemingly deliberating trying to cause difficulties for her as he waved his hand and replied, “Wait outside then. I’ll call you if I need anything, and don’t disturb us if there isn’t anything.”

“Wait… wait outside?” Fu Yu’s eyes snapped wide open as though she had misheard.

She was the Second Princess of the Human Imperial City, with only one person above her, while everyone else stood below! Sending the ancient books to him was already a form of humiliation for her, yet he actually dared to ask her to wait outside at his beck and call? Did he really think that she was a servant that he could order around? She was utterly incapable of enduring it.

Anger started to appear on her face. However, right at the last moment, she remembered the Human Sovereign’s earlier instructions and it was as if a bucket of cold water had been dumped on her, causing her overflowing anger to evaporate in a flash, leaving her no choice but to reply through clenched teeth, “Yes!”

Regardless of anything, she did not dare to go against the Human Sovereign’s orders.

The few other princesses slowly backed out of the palace, their hearts filled with various kinds of thoughts as they stood guard outside of the door. Other than the little princess, the rest had expressions of hatred on their faces, as they felt that they should not be taking care of such matters.

Within the palace, Yang Kai and Zhu Qing stared at the pile of ancient books on the table, before picking up a book each to start reading.
