Amid the uproar, the most tempting promise came not from the scions of noble families, but from the young girl at the center of the crowd.
Her name was Su Lin'Yin, and she was a princess of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom.
The young nobles who had arrived with her promised on her behalf, offering to present the Celestial Cloud Imperial Family's treasured Treasure Vault to the Celestial Sea King in exchange for his military aid.
Then, without any prompting, the still-childish young girl turned to the newly arrived members of the Celestial Patrol and made a declaration. "I am a legitimate daughter of the Celestial Cloud Imperial Family. With the deaths of my elder brothers and sisters, I have the right to claim the throne."
"Whoever can drive the Quanrong Barbarian Ghosts from the lands of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom, I will marry them! Our child will be the next Sovereign of the Celestial Cloud Kingdom!"
"BUZZ—!"
