Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 694 - 688: Made an Effort (1st update)

"Even if it’s just an ordinary necklace, I like it!" the Seventh Princess raised her head, looked at Li Feng, and declared, "My heart is wholly with Brother Su. If you think I will marry you, get that thought out of your head!"

Just a second before, Li Feng had been laughing mockingly at Su Chen. In the next instant, his smile froze, and his aura of anger became unstable. Being explicitly rejected by the Seventh Princess in front of so many people was an unimaginable insult to him.

Especially since he was being outmatched by someone at the Fate Realm Sixth Level, which he considered trash? Li Feng couldn’t accept it!

"Xuan’er, shut up!" In that same second, the Xuanfeng Emperor suddenly shouted, "Marriage is a matter decreed by parents; is it for you to speak nonsense about?"

"Imperial Father, you... I would rather die than marry him!!!" The Seventh Princess was so agitated that she almost bit her own lips through as she firmly stated. Her heart sank; the emperor’s rebuke clearly showed his inclination towards Li Feng.

The Xuanfeng Emperor frowned and looked at Su Chen, "The necklace is nice, but the Divine Martial Continent is a world of martial arts cultivation. You should understand that, right?"

The Xuanfeng Emperor was trying to dissuade Su Chen.

The necklace was crafted with care, but sadly, no matter how much effort was put into it, it was just an ordinary item. Logically, its value was far less than that of a Dao Artifact; there was simply no comparison. Thus, he had almost sealed Su Chen’s fate.

Su Chen smiled. He didn’t blame the Xuanfeng Emperor for being pragmatic; the world was indeed a realistic place. If on Earth people marry off their daughters in such a manner, how much more so on the Divine Martial Continent? However, the emperor’s inability to see beyond appearances was disappointing. Was the necklace really just an ordinary one?

"What are you laughing at?" The emperor’s brows furrowed even more deeply. He felt that Su Chen’s laughter was scoffing at him. Already distraught by having to force his daughter to marry Li Feng, Su Chen’s laughter seemed particularly irritating.

"Does whether I laugh or cry matter to the emperor? What? Can the emperor also control whether I laugh or cry?" Su Chen said lightly.

"You are being insolent!!!" The Xuanfeng Emperor was furious.

In the hall, four to five hundred Martial Cultivators watched the scene unfold in silence. Yet, they all felt a sense of pity for Su Chen.

He was an Eternal Evil, destined to win a beauty’s heart, but then the Li Family unexpectedly intervened...

Was Su Chen inferior to Li Feng? It was just that Su Chen didn’t have a behemoth like the Li Family behind him.

Su Chen’s only chance might have hinged on the birthday gift he sent. Had he offered the Seventh Princess a gift that could captivate the entire audience, perhaps he could have swayed the emperor’s heart and turned the situation around.

Unfortunately, Su Chen hadn’t seized that opportunity. Sending an ordinary necklace that could hardly count as a Spiritual Artifact, how daringly naive he was!

"Hehe..." Faced with the emperor’s fury, Su Chen’s defiant smile grew even more pronounced.

Laughing is being insolent? What does the emperor think he is? Give him a bit of face, and he’s still the future father-in-law, but without it, he’s nothing.

Seeing that Su Chen not only did not suppress his smile, but made it even more intense, the emperor’s expression grew ominously dark; his anger almost physically manifesting as he stared intensely at Su Chen.

The atmosphere in the hall rapidly tensed up, as if being seared by True Fire. It was oppressively suffocating.

Li Feng and other Li family members looked on with cold, amused, anticipatory smiles, clearly enjoying the drama that unfolded.

At that moment, just as the emperor was about to explode, Consort Yun suddenly changed expression and exclaimed, "Xuan’er, come here!!!"

"Yun’er, what are you doing?" The emperor’s burgeoning fury suddenly dissipated, and he looked at Consort Yun with annoyance mixed with confusion.

Consort Yun did not explain, but instead repeated, "Xuan’er, come here quickly..."

"Imperial Mother, what’s wrong?" The Seventh Princess did not know what was happening, but still instinctively walked towards Consort Yun.

Quickly, under everyone’s gaze, the Seventh Princess approached Consort Yun.

Consort Yun then picked up the necklace hanging on the Seventh Princess’s neck, her face full of solemnity.

"Imperial Mother, what exactly is wrong?" The Seventh Princess grew even more puzzled, as she had never seen Imperial Mother showing such shocked, solemn, and even distraught expressions before.

"Su Chen, is... is this necklace a storage device?" Instead of answering the Seventh Princess, Consort Yun suddenly turned to Su Chen, her voice trembling slightly as she asked.

"Yes!" Su Chen nodded.

Meanwhile, inside the hall, everyone’s facial expressions began to change rapidly.

A storage device? Not just an ordinary necklace?

On the Divine Martial Continent, storage bags were commonly used for storage, with very few storage devices, because refining a storage device demanded a very high understanding of the Space Law, something hardly any artifact refining master could achieve.

Within the entire Xuanfeng Dynasty, how many Martial Cultivators could wear storage devices like a storage ring? Basically, most of them wore the simplest storage bags.

A storage necklace!!!

So precious, so unbelievable, not at all inferior to a storage ring, and even more valuable. After all, the necklace that Su Chen gave was so beautifully made, any woman would absolutely adore it!

"Yun’er, is it really a storage device?" The Xuanfeng Emperor was also shocked and instinctively looked at Consort Yun, somewhat disbelieving as he asked.

"Yes, and the space inside is extremely large, much larger than Tianhe Hall!" Consort Yun nodded emphatically.

What, larger than Tianhe Hall? Once Consort Yun said this, the faces of those Martial Cultivators in the great hall changed even more.

Among them, most of their storage bags were only one-fifth or even one-tenth the size of Tianhe Hall.

"Brother Su, thank you..." The Seventh Princess became even more touched and surprised, feeling unimaginably sweet inside as she looked at Su Chen with affectionate eyes.

"A storage device, a thoughtful gesture indeed." The Xuanfeng Emperor looked deeply at Su Chen, thinking to himself.

Right then, Li Feng snorted, "Although storage devices are precious, compared to a Dao Artifact..."

The Xuanfeng Emperor’s expression became serious, indeed! Although storage devices were extremely rare and precious, compared to a Dao Artifact, they still fell short!

"Emperor, I haven’t finished speaking yet." Consort Yun spoke calmly yet with an extremely grave tone.

"Please speak, Consort Yun." freewebnøvel.coɱ

"If I’m not mistaken, this necklace is not just a storage device but also a Dao Artifact Tier storage device, yes, at the Middle Stage." Consort Yun took a deep breath, her voice very, very slow.

After Consort Yun finished speaking,

In an instant, Tianhe Hall was completely silent!!!

Even Li Feng and the other members of the Li family held their breath all at once.

Shocked eyes darted around, pairs of eyeballs nearly fell out.

"What?" The Xuanfeng Emperor even trembled violently, completely losing composure.
