Only then did Chen Fan get a clear look at the princess. She surpassed Qi Xue in beauty, exuding an air of cold nobility.
“Many thanks to the Princess,” Chen Fan said politely as he approached.
The princess pointed at a seat next to her and said, “You sit here, Demon General Chen.”
At her words, the room’s atmosphere shifted.
Sitting next to the princess?
No one else had ever been given such an honor—Chen Fan was the first.
Chen Fan sensed the crowd’s gazes, particularly from the First Demon General. It seemed like he wanted to bore numerous bloody holes in Chen Fan with his gaze.
Raising an eyebrow, Chen Fan realized this attention wasn’t entirely favorable.
The princess, with her noble status and unmatched beauty, had clearly caught the interest of many. He could tell that many here wanted to court her, including the First Demon General.
But the princess had already spoken, and Chen Fan didn’t hesitate. Ignoring the sharp stares, he moved to sit beside her.
“We are all old acquaintances, but Demon General Chen is a new addition to our sect. So, this meeting is mainly to talk to him. I trust you won’t mind,” the princess said, her smile carrying a hint of authority.
Given her status, even if someone here were upset, they would not raise any objection, especially not after she had spoken. They could only seethe inwardly as Chen Fan sat next to her.
“I heard you are from the continent, Chen Fan. Is that true?” the princess asked, pouring tea for him.
Chen Fan raised an eyebrow, puzzled by her actions. Making him sit next to her was already bad enough; now, with her personally serving him tea, the crowd’s glares seemed sharp enough to tear him apart.
However, he remained calm, picked up the tea the princess served him, and took a sip. Looking into her eyes, he tried to gauge her thoughts. He answered, “Yes, Your Highness. I am Chen Fan from the Tianwu Continent.”
Although Chen Fan’s powerful spiritual strength allowed him to notice even the smallest changes in people's words and actions, he could not sense any hostility from the princess’ eyes.
It seemed her curiosity about him was genuine, likely because he came from the Tianwu Continent.
Whether the princess had feelings for Chen Fan or not, the First Demon General clearly felt unsettled.
“Pfft.”
All of a sudden, a light laughter rang out. The princess’ smile was like a hundred flowers blooming. The tense atmosphere immediately lightened up.
The First Demon General retracted his sharp gaze.
“You are both top demon generals of our sect. You’re undoubtedly extremely powerful,” the princess said with a smile. “You should all leave for now. I’ll have a private conversation with Demon General Chen.”
The First Demon General’s eyes flickered with sharpness, and his hand paused mid-air, holding the teacup.
However, seeing the princess looking at him, he could only nod, stand up, and walk outside.
The others followed suit, all leaving with lingering, curious glances at Chen Fan.
What qualifications does this brat have to earn the princess' favor, to be left alone with her?
Soon, only Chen Fan and the princess remained.
Chen Fan sipped his tea quietly, not bothering to look at her or speculate on her intentions. He decided to simply go with the flow.
As soon as the crowd left, the warmth the princess had shown vanished. She suddenly became cold and aloof, like a dignified queen.
“You’re bold—to use your divine eye to peek at me, showing no respect.”
“Beauties are to be admired, not respected. Your Highness is a rare beauty, while I am just a commoner. Of course, I can only admire you. I hope you won’t feel offended.”
Chen Fan put down his teacup and met the princess’ gaze, unflinching.
Though he sensed no hostility from her, it was clear she was deliberately provoking him—baiting the First Demon General and the others into hostility.
The demon sect’s princess was not simple at all.
