Chapter 415: What is your relationship with that senior?

Hearing the little girl’s words, Li Bai did not show much emotion.

Having lived for a long time, he had already seen through human nature.

So what if the little girl was a princess? Her father was the empire’s emperor, and he had many offspring who would not care about her life.

With her mother sent to the cold palace, it meant the little girl had lost her support.

A girl who does not receive her father’s attention and has a mother in the cold palace means she has no backing at all.

Moreover, since she was so young, there would naturally be servants who wanted to control her.

And the best way to control her was to make her obedient from a young age; if she did not obey, they would punish her, not give her food, and force her to listen.

If the little girl learned to be obedient from an early age, she would grow up to be too afraid to defy them.

In Chinese history, Princess Shouning of the Ming Dynasty and Princess Rong’an of the Qing Dynasty were both bullied by their servants.

These are just the princesses recorded in history; there are even more whose stories were not documented.

The saying "the royal family knows no family ties" is not a joke.

In the grand hall, Li Bai quietly watched as Evelyn took small bites of food, not saying a word.

"Thank you, big brother!" Finally, when Evelyn had eaten enough, she quickly expressed her gratitude to Li Bai.

"You’re welcome," Li Bai nodded.

"Big brother, are you my royal brother?" Evelyn asked him.

In her impression, only her Father Emperor and royal brothers could live in the palace.

"Don’t you recognize your own royal brother?" Li Bai asked in surprise.

"I, I haven’t seen any royal brothers other than the Sixteenth Royal Brother," Evelyn quietly responded, looking down.

Upon hearing this, Li Bai used his divine sense to scan the palace and found that there were about seventy or eighty children of the emperor.

With so many, it was no wonder Evelyn had not met many, after all, she was only seven, and her mother had been in the cold palace since her childhood. She had not even seen her Father Emperor, let alone any royal brothers.

" I am not your royal brother," Li Bai said lightly.

"Then are you my Father Emperor?" Once Evelyn said this, she was stunned.

In such a luxurious palace lived just one person, so Evelyn immediately speculated that the person in front of her might very well be her Father Emperor.

Only the Father Emperor would live in such a grand palace.

However, in the next moment, Li Bai’s words shattered Evelyn’s thoughts.

"I am also not your Father Emperor. Please leave once you finish eating," Li Bai said lightly to the little girl.

Just as Li Bai prepared to send Evelyn away, a voice suddenly called out from outside the Moon Palace. "Karleir requests to see you, senior."

Hearing this, Li Bai replied coolly, "Come in."

As soon as Li Bai finished speaking, an elder soon appeared before him.

The elder had come from outside the palace and did not use any divine sense.

Because Li Bai lived in the Moon Palace, no one dared to use divine sense to scan that area.

So when the elder entered the grand hall, he was surprised to find a seven-year-old little girl in front of Li Bai.

The little girl also showed a curious expression when she saw the elder walking in.

"What brings you to see me?" Li Bai asked lightly upon seeing Karleir.

"Senior, we have obtained one thousand jars of magic source wine, which is just as flavorful and famous as fragrant wine. I wonder if you are interested? If you are, we can provide you with this magic source wine in large quantities," Karleir said, waving his hand to reveal a jar of wine.

"Oh, let me taste it," Li Bai nodded to Karleir.

Soon, Karleir respectfully handed the jar of wine to Li Bai.

With a wave of his hand, Li Bai opened the seal on the jar, and a rich aroma of wine immediately wafted out.

Li Bai took a sip, and as he slowly savored it, he realized that this magic source wine and fragrant wine both had their unique flavors and were quite good.

In fact, compared to fragrant wine, Li Bai preferred this magic source wine.

"This wine is good. What do you want?" Li Bai asked Karleir, looking at him.

"If possible, we would like to continue exchanging for that divine wine," Karleir said somewhat nervously.

Upon hearing this, Li Bai thought for a moment and replied, "You want to trade for my immortal wine to help people improve their cultivation levels, right? I actually have something better to exchange with you."

With a wave of his hand, a bottle of elixir appeared in Li Bai’s hand.

This was a kind of elixir that could help someone at the Great Ascension stage to break through to the Tribulation stage, which was considered low-grade among spiritual medicine in the Immortal Realm, but was rare in the Spirit Realm.

In the Immortal Realm, the jar of immortal wine Li Bai previously gave Karleir could easily be exchanged for two hundred of these elixirs.

Li Bai could have as many of these elixirs as he wanted, as he could exchange them with others using the trading function.

"Senior, may I ask what this is?" Karleir inquired, looking at the elixir Li Bai revealed.

"This is a type of elixir, or as your Elf Tribe would call it, a magic elixir. It can guarantee a one hundred percent chance for a great magic tutor to break through to a holy magic tutor. This bottle contains one hundred, enough for one hundred people to break through to become holy magic tutors," Li Bai explained.

After a pause, he continued, "For this bottle of elixir, I will exchange it for two thousand jars of magic source wine. How about that?"

Upon hearing Li Bai’s words, Karleir nodded without hesitation.

"Senior, I am willing to exchange for this magic elixir," Karleir quickly replied to Li Bai.

Once finished, he took out a piece of spatial equipment and respectfully handed it to Li Bai, saying, "Senior, this contains one thousand two hundred jars of magic source wine. We will make up for the remaining jars later. What do you think?"

"That works," Li Bai nodded.

With a wave of his hand, he transferred the more than one thousand jars of magic source wine into his own space.

At the same time, he tossed the bottle of elixir to Karleir.

"Thank you, senior," Karleir quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Alright, you may leave now," Li Bai said to Karleir.

"Yes, senior." Karleir prepared to depart.

"Wait a moment," Li Bai called out to him.

"Senior, is there anything else you need?" Karleir hurriedly asked, showing respect.

"Take this child with you," Li Bai said, pointing to Evelyn beside him.

"Yes."

Karleir quickly agreed upon hearing Li Bai.

In the next moment, he waved his hand, and Evelyn appeared beside him.

Soon, Karleir took Evelyn and left the Moon Palace.

After leaving the Moon Palace, Karleir swiftly flew with Evelyn to the palace they were in.

Then, he placed Evelyn on the ground but kept sizing her up with his eyes.

"What is your name?" Karleir gently asked Evelyn.

"I, I am called Evelyn," she replied in a quiet, timid voice.

It was clear that in this unfamiliar place, facing this strange elder made her feel quite anxious.

"What is your relationship with that senior?" Karleir continued to ask with a friendly smile.

When he had gone to see that senior, he had noticed that the senior was eating with this little girl.

Anyone who could dine with that senior was someone worth paying special attention to.
