1036 Cooperation (1/2)

Lin Feng laughed coldly to himself inside, but on his face, he was smiling as he gulped the wine down.

Qu Xin Rui looked at Jun Xie. Seeing that Jun Xie was being so receptive, she was rather pleased.

Although Jun Xie's looks was not really comparable to the men serving her in the Heavenly Cloud Chambers, but just that pair of eyes, and the Fire Country behind him, really suited him to Qu Xin Rui's tastes.

”Come, drink up.” Qu Xin Rui said highly satisfied.

Lin Feng retreated quietly back to his seat with a highly suspicious smile hanging upon his face. His gaze fell quietly upon Jun Xie, somewhat anxious and seemingly tinged with anticipation.

The entire banquet,had turned into one where the rest of the people had blended into the background when all of Qu Xin Rui's words were directed only towards Jun Xie alone.

Even if Jun Wu Xie was really that dumb, she would still be able to see that Qu Xin Rui was actually trying to win her over. But that realisation had come rather suddenly and she could not think why Qu Xin Rui would want to win her favour.

When the banquet was about halfway through, Qu Xin Rui saw that the time was ripe and she said: ”Our little Young Master Jun has just recently ascended to rulership and you have immediately come to our Thousand Beast City. It would seem to me that you hold quite a bit of interest in the Thousand Beast City as well. My Thousand Beast City might not be on par in terms of might with some other countries but we are still able to hold our own in this region. Our little Young Master Jun might have already gained significant and decisive status and position but youth is highly fleeting and one does not live forever. If I am to tell you that one is able to gain an immortal body and enjoy unending life, what would our little Young Master Jun have to say to that?”

Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes slightly as she felt that the chill in Qu Xin Rui's words to be rather strange. She appeared unmoved as she said: ”Within Heaven and Earth, everything is already destined.”

Qu Xin Rui laughed at that and replied: ”As long as one is powerful enough, one does not worry about being unable to defy the Heavens and changing one's destiny. Little Young Master Jun addresses me as Miss Qu, would you happen to know my actual age?”

Jun Wu Xie answered. ”Looks to be in your prime, about twice in tens.”
