Chapter 46: Chapter 46 Vermilion Bird Platform

Facing Shen Yan's pressing questions and the overwhelming claim to the throne by the Qian Emperor, the party from Canglan Kingdom had no choice but to pay their respects. A young man emerged from the foremost carriage, dressed in a black brocade robe trimmed with gold. With a jade crown atop his head and a faint smile on his handsome face, he exuded an air of disdain. At his waist, he sported a bronze treasure sword with a scabbard inset with five differently colored gems, which subtly reflected the light.

"Crown Prince Zhu Yishi of Canglan Kingdom pays his respects to the Qian Emperor!"

The brocade-clad young man's tone was neither servile nor overbearing as he bowed slightly, greeting with clasped hands. Not being a citizen of Qianyue Kingdom, naturally, he was not required to kneel to the Qian Emperor.
