Chapter 314 -312-Deityforsaken Land
Cold sweat began to bead on Valentine’s forehead.
Were this in the Besk Kingdom, Valentine wouldn’t fear a princess of the Azure Empire so intensely.
But now, within the bounds of the Azure Empire, to provoke a member of the imperial family...
The Azure Empire could expel the Adrien family with but a word.
And the deal they were brokering would crumble to dust.
Should that happen, Valentine’s standing in his family would plummet without restraint, casting him to the fringes.
With an awkward tone, Valentine spoke, "Lady Lana, my apologies to you and your friend. We are willing to offer two trial slots to your friend, free of charge."
Lana leaned in close to Ethan, her breath a fragrant whisper:
"Best to accept the olive branch. A full-scale feud would ensnare both Besk Kingdom and the Azure Empire."
Lana chose not to use soul transmission, deliberately letting Valentine overhear.
Indeed, upon hearing her words, Valentine’s eyelids gave a slight twitch, his expression softening somewhat.
