Chapter 197: What if I marry her? Part2

“Freya, how is it that your son has not yet arrived?”

“This is bordering on blatant disrespect.”

“Maybe his position has finally gone to his head.” 

One of the golden-robed elders muttered with irritation.

“Aha Ha Haa… I am sure he will be here soon. He must have been in the middle of something.” Empress Freya smiled weakly.

She decided that it was better to take these acidic words as bad humor and let them slide. She didn’t want to make things worse for Xander.

“I even heard that he has been personally tending to that wounded spirit beast for the past couple of days?”

“So he has time for that woman, but not for us?” The elder clicked his tongue and said.

It was very apparent that he didn’t approve of Xander and was intent on making things difficult for him.

But before Freya could try and calm down this situation, a booming voice echoed in the throne room.

“I apologize to the elders for making everyone wait. I was paying respects to my father.”

“Or would you have preferred that I have come here directly, without paying respects to his majesty, the Emperor first?”

A tall and imposing figure casually strolled into the throne room, announcing his arrival in an arrogant manner.

Though he mentioned the word apology, there was no such sentiment visible on his impeccably divine face.

His crimson orbs simmered fiercely and the man nonchalantly strode towards the enormous and majestic throne at the head of the throne room, without sparing a glance to any of the elders.

His feet paused there as he stared at the empty throne for a while.

Some of the elders couldn’t help but inwardly curse at his arrogance. They wouldn’t even be surprised if he suddenly sat on the royal throne, claiming it for himself.

But Xander merely chuckled as he side-stepped and sat on the throne to the right, next to the Emperor’s seat.

He leisurely sat back with his head cocked to the side, resting his face on his fist, and murmured lazily. “We can begin now.”

Xavier looked at his brother’s bored face and inwardly chuckled. His brother indeed loved angering these high-council elders.

Freya was also awkwardly fidgeting in her seat. 

She looked at Xander and then at Xavier who was barely controlling his laughter and shook her head helplessly. 

All her sons were troublemakers!

“What do you mean we can begin now? Is this how you talk to your elders?” 

One of the golden-robed elders, Darkcassier, lost his temper and began shouting at Xander. 

He had had enough of this unruly youngster’s antics. 

Just because he was a genius, it didn’t mean that he could act as he pleased. Not even the Emperor wielded such power.

“How are you going to explain to us everything that has happened?”

“Why were even spirit beasts and other races allowed to participate in this damned labyrinth?”

“Wouldn’t it have been easier if you had taken a smaller team and explored it first?”

“Why did you have to make a spectacle out of it?”

“Now everyone is unhappy. How are you going to appease them?”

Xander allowed the old elf to continue his rant and patiently waited for him to complete.

He then casually mumbled. “Does anyone have anything else to add to this?”

One of the other elders, Therldon loudly harrumphed. 

“I suggest that you hand over the spirit beast to the high-council.”

“We can perform memory extraction and prove to the nine countries that we are impartial and unbiased.”

“This will also help smoothen things over.”

“Heh.” Xander smirked, a cold chuckle escaping his lips.

“What are you laughing at Prince Xander? We are not your Generals, don’t forget that.” The old man grimaced.

“You know full well the magnitude of the incident that I am talking about.”

“And it’s not just this.”

“There is also news that she had obtained the treasure from the tribulation lightning and she is also linked with the assassination of the dwarven emissaries.”

“Is sacrificing a single individual for the sake of the well-being of the entire clan and the nine countries not justified?”

“Sure. It is definitely justified.” Xander answered, shrugging his shoulders.

“But may I ask why the elders have conveniently neglected the discussion about the mysterious black-robed figure who had assaulted a few elves inside the labyrinth?”

“I even personally saw him enter the azure lake before me.”

“For all we know, Princess Tang Yue, my royal consort might have been wounded because she tried to prevent him from obtaining the treasure.” 

Xander calmly spoke, particularly stressing the first few words. The elders in front of him seemed to have forgotten that Tang Yue was his consort.

“Hmph. All this is mere conjectures. We do not know what happened there.” The elder waved his hand and dismissed Xander’s words.

“Ok. Let’s say that she has indeed obtained the inheritance. So what of it?” Xander asked, his eyebrows raised in ridicule.

What a bunch of bullies! They didn’t even want to discuss the matter with him. 

All they wanted was to simply eliminate the poor woman in order to appease the noble families.

Everything was crystal clear just from their attitudes.

“She is my royal consort and hence will be one of the backbones of Eldoria. What does that have to do with anyone?”

“Ha Ha Ha. Please, Prince Xander, don’t make us laugh. Ha Ha Ha. Your royal consort huh? What a joke!”

“Everyone knows the condition of your harem, Prince Xander.” 

“Maybe one of these days, you should send your women to me. I can satisfy them since you are too busy for them.” Another golden-robed elder, Darius sneered with contempt.

He was in particular hostile towards Xander and always had it out for him because the elf had blatantly refused to marry his granddaughter.

Though Darius’s words were not pleasant to hear, he was still speaking the truth. 

Even Freya couldn’t deny his accusations. 

Xander had really treated the royal harem as a joke and had not produced even a single heir while her other sons already had at least a couple of heirs.
