Chapter 1265: The Closed Door Meal! Di Er Finally Can
Lingshu Sacred Land, Imperial Clan Villa District.
Prince Di Er stood before the floor-to-ceiling mirror in his bedroom, meticulously adjusting his luxurious ceremonial attire.
"Your Highness, your attire tonight is extraordinarily dashing."
A servant beside him respectfully offered a brooch embedded with starstones.
Di Er smiled confidently and pinned the brooch to his collar.
The young man in the mirror had a slender figure and a handsome face.
His deep blue ceremonial robe was impeccably tailored, enhancing his noble bearing.
"Ye Lan... succubus bloodline..."
Di Er whispered softly, a flicker of heat flashing in his eyes.
Ever since he saw Ye Lan reveal her succubus form on the arena today.
Her graceful figure had constantly replayed in his mind.
Yet he had held back until now, only now deciding to invite Ye Lan to dinner.
"Your Highness, this is the 'Tear of the Stars' you requested."
Another servant approached carefully, cradling an exquisite gift box.
Di Er opened the box, revealing a necklace of pure, translucent blue gemstone,
shimmering with dreamlike radiance under the lights.
It was a rare treasure he had specifically chosen, worth a fortune.
Not only beautiful and meant for constant wear, but it also enhances cultivation speed—it's a B3-tier item.
Its price alone required ten billion cosmic coins, nearly draining all his savings from years of allowance.
Clearly, for Ye Lan, he had gone all out.
"Good."
Di Er nodded in satisfaction and ordered, "Prepare the vehicle. I'm going to the Noah Sacred Land's quarters."
As a member of the imperial family, he would never travel by flight himself.
"Yes." The servant bowed and withdrew.
Di Er nodded, about to step out the door.
A tall, thin middle-aged man clad in battle armor shadowed his steps.
Kun Te, a Universe Stage Three powerhouse assigned to protect him.
"Uncle Kun, you don't need to come with me this time."
Di Er paused and glanced at him.
He was going on a date—having someone constantly trailing him would ruin the mood.
"Your Highness, I'm only concerned for your safety."
Kun Te replied respectfully.
"In the Lingshu Sacred Land, what danger could I possibly face?
Don't follow me. That's an order—you know the consequences of disobeying."
Prince Di Er waved his hand dismissively, ignoring Kun Te's reaction, and walked straight out of the villa.
Kun Te's face showed hesitation, but in the end, he did not follow.
The Lingshu Sacred Land housed more than one Immortal Deity.
In terms of safety, he truly didn't need to worry excessively.
Moreover,
it was Di Er's order—if he defied it, he would be punished too.
A few minutes later, a luxurious hovercar pulled up at the entrance of the Noah Sacred Land's contestant residence zone.
Di Er stepped out of the hovercar, straightened his collar, and walked with elegant steps toward Ye Lan's villa.
This time, he was determined to succeed!
At that moment, Ye Lan inside the villa had just finished bathing.
She sat before the vanity, combing her waist-length purple hair.
In the mirror, the woman's skin was snow-white, her features like a painted scroll, though a faint unnatural flush still tinged her cheeks.
"The side effects of using the succubus bloodline in battle are more severe than I imagined—no wonder Teacher Niki told me to find a partner to resolve it..."
Ye Lan gently bit her lower lip; she could feel an inexplicable, pervasive heat coursing through her body.
"Six fifty. Xu Jingming should be arriving soon."
Ye Lan checked the time.
Her crimson lips curved unconsciously upward, a hint of anticipation glimmering in her violet eyes.
Once Xu Jingming arrived, the side effects of her bloodline would vanish.
More importantly, the process of absorbing demonic energy was somewhat pleasurable.
She hadn't noticed it yesterday, but now she was actually looking forward to it.
"Dingdong~~~"
The doorbell suddenly rang; Ye Lan's eyes lit up and she rose quickly.
Today, she had specifically changed into a light purple home dress, its hem ending mid-thigh, revealing long, fair legs.
"Coming."
Ye Lan hurried to the door, her heartbeat quickening slightly.
The moment she opened the door, a bright smile bloomed across her face.
But before she could speak, she discovered that the figure standing outside the door was not Xu Jingming as she had hoped, but Prince Di Er.
Di Er was stunned by Ye Lan's smile when she opened the door.
Ye Lan, usually cold as ice, now smiled like snow melting—so beautiful it stole the breath away.
He froze for a second, then offered what he believed was his most charming smile: "Miss Ye, good evening."
As a member of the Noah royal family, Di Er's appearance was naturally exceptional.
At this moment, his smile was undeniably handsome, even capable of bewitching entire crowds of young maidens.
Yet Ye Lan's expression instantly turned icy.
The temperature in her violet eyes dropped to freezing: "Prince Di Er, what brings you here?"
As a Star Level Two powerhouse, her spiritual force could easily cover a hundred kilometers around her.
But in the Lingshu Sacred Ground, freely unleashing spiritual force was clearly an impolite act.
Moreover, constantly using spiritual force was exhausting for her.
Therefore, she had not used it to scan her surroundings.
Otherwise, upon recognizing Prince Di Er as the one knocking, she would never have opened the door.
Di Er was startled by her sudden change in demeanor, but quickly regained his composure and bowed slightly:
"Forgive the intrusion—I have come to invite Miss Ye to dinner.
A new interstellar restaurant has opened here in the Lingshu Sacred Ground, said to serve rare delicacies transported from across the star systems."
As he spoke, he withdrew an exquisite gift box and opened it gracefully:
"This is a small token of my regard—I hope Miss Ye will like it."
Inside the box, the "Star's Tear" shimmered with a mesmerizing blue glow under the light, unmistakably priceless.
Yet Ye Lan didn't even glance at it, speaking coldly: "Thank you for your kindness, Prince, but I already have plans tonight."
Di Er's smile stiffened, but quickly returned to normal:
"Miss Ye, don't refuse so hastily—I know we've had misunderstandings before.
Please give me a chance to explain."
Due to his succubus bloodline, he possessed boundless patience toward Ye Lan.
In fact, his patience with her exceeded by dozens of times the patience he showed during his own cultivation.
Had he applied this much patience to his cultivation, he would not still be merely Star Level One.
"No need to explain. I'm busy."
Bang—!!
The door slammed shut, leaving Di Er alone before the villa.
With the gift box still clutched in his hands, he looked like the Joker and the Ace of Spades from a deck of cards.
"Damn it! That bitch! She won't even have dinner with me!"
Prince Di Er, having been shut out, finally lost his composure.
The previously courteous expression on his face shattered, replaced by endless malice.
As a member of the Noah royal family, when had he ever lowered himself so much?
Worse still—even after lowering himself this far,
Ye Lan still refused to give him a single kind look!
After all, hadn't she once used his money to have dinner with Xu Jingming?
"Fine! Very fine! I'll see what plans you have tonight!"
Di Er snorted, but instead of leaving, he returned to his hovering car.
He drove it instead to a hidden shadowed street on the opposite side and waited.
Ye Lan's smile when she opened the door was genuine.
Since it wasn't for him, it must have been for someone else.
Who in the entire Noah Sacred Ground didn't know he was courting Ye Lan?
He would see—who dared to visit her under these circumstances!
