I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 568 2.1 The Crown Prince (XV)
A brief silence fell over the area after these words were spoken.

The White Knight, Jafar, is a name almost every crown prince has heard of. He is ranked tenth on the dungeon owner leaderboard, but no one has ever actually seen the White Knight, and no dungeon related to the White Knight has appeared to this day.

They never expected to suddenly meet the rumored tenth-ranked master of the dungeon, especially since he appeared at the Crown Prince's meeting as a Crown Prince's apostle.

Urias swept his dark orange eyes over the crowd and suddenly chuckled. If Mu Yegui hadn't disagreed with him appearing under the guise of jealousy, would he have needed to borrow Urias's appearance?

Mu Yegui released Xin Bai and faced the crowd, who then finally saw the rumored first crown prince.

She took a slight step back with one foot, gently lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, and gracefully bowed to the crowd.

The vibrant red dress didn't look gaudy on her; instead, it made her even more dazzling. Her slightly aloof and arrogant demeanor almost divided the conference room into two worlds. Although she was in the conference room, she was independent of the space and couldn't blend in at all.

Her elegant posture and every gesture exuded aristocratic grace, while the vibrant red neckband on her fair skin gave the impression of flowing blood on her skin, hinting at a bewitching allure.

Her long, misty gray hair was loose down her back, tied up in a three-strand braid with a red ribbon as decoration. A rapier hung at her waist, seemingly the same model as the one carried by the knight beside her.

A black ring and a bone ring were worn on her fair and slender fingers, faintly exuding a terrifying aura, but it vanished in an instant, too fast to be detected.

Her exquisite and beautiful face had not a single superfluous expression. Her perfect features were like the most perfect work of art in the hands of a god, without any flaws. Her clear, silver eyes quietly looked at everyone, like a deep, ancient pool of water that rippled with a hint of coolness but could not reflect anyone's image.

Her overly perfect appearance gave her an unreal quality; she was like a beautiful puppet in the hands of a puppeteer, beautiful but lifeless, simply following a pre-arranged pattern without any independent thought.

“This is Urias,” Mu Yegui said, pointing to Jealousy, who was dressed as Urias beside him.

"MoMo, did you kidnap the dungeon owner to be an apostle? I remember the White Knight is the Duke of Arrogance's man, right?" Ming Jin frowned. He hadn't noticed this before, but now he realized that things were more serious than he had anticipated.

“Yes, Jia has signed a knighthood contract and is now mine.” Mu Yegui walked to the head seat and sat down, speaking softly.

Her cool, silver eyes suddenly fell on the chubby little bird that was rubbing against Ling Tong's shoulder. She leaned closer and asked, "You're so chubby, can I touch you?"

Ling Tong reached out and picked up the chubby little bird that was stiff with fear and dared not move, and handed it to Mu Yegui.

"It's soft." The fair fingertip poked at the white feather, leaving a small dent, indicating that it was probably bloated and the feathers were quite fluffy.

The once proud and arrogant little chubby bird now lowered its head, wishing it could bury itself in its feathers. It lay motionless in Mu Yegui's palm, pretending to be dead.

Now I finally understand why Ling Tong said, "You won't be able to eat it when she comes." It's because Mu Yegui is the natural enemy. It's just a small piece of food on the plate, not even enough to fill a tooth gap!
Ling Tong glanced at the chubby little bird that had finally realized the cruelty of society and was pretending to be dead, and slowly said, "Its name is Bai Feng. I found it by accident when I was cooking hot spring eggs in a dungeon, and it turned out to be a little phoenix that was completely white. It's picky about food, willful, delicate, and has a bad temper. It's simply a difficult little ancestor to take care of."

He handed Mu Yegui a small, vermilion fruit. Mu Yegui glanced at it curiously, then put it to Xiao Pangchu's lips.

"Eat," the soft, sweet little voice whispered.

The little chubby bird stiffly opened its mouth mechanically and swallowed it in one gulp, thinking that this would make it lose weight immediately, which terrified it.

If it could write, it would definitely write a diary entry: Today it encountered its natural enemy, the legendary king of the food chain, and finally tasted what it meant to be food on a plate. And the king even let it eat him, was it trying to fatten him up further? "Little White, I am also her food." Ling Tong looked at the pitiful white phoenix looking at him, trying to get him to save it, and said slowly without changing his expression.

Bai Feng gave up hope, closed her eyes, and prepared to die.

"I brought gold and silver with me too, you can play together." Mu Yegui poked Bai Feng's head and said softly.

Jiafa took out the gold and silver that had been sleeping soundly from his pocket and placed it next to Bai Feng. Mu Yegui casually put Bai Feng aside and then ignored it.

Bai Feng waited for a long time but didn't feel any pain. Anxiously, she opened her eyes and saw a mouse about her size fast asleep. She then met a pair of golden eyes. The next second, she closed them again, rolled over, and continued sleeping, completely disregarding whether the creature in front of her was a predator on the food chain.

Bai Feng became curious. It seemed to sense that Mu Yegui was not moving it, so it used its head to nudge Jin Yin, but the latter still did not give any response.

Mu Yegui glanced at the two adorable creatures playing around, then at Xin Bai, who was rubbing her own tail with a pained expression and whose fur was standing on end. She pondered how to bring Xin Bai home.

Xin Bai seemed to sense Mu Yegui's gaze and almost blurted out, "I'm not going!!" He didn't want to be a bald tiger!

"What a pity." Mu Yegui stared at Xin Bai, but his tone didn't convey any regret; instead, it gave off a sense of eagerness.

Xin Bai: "..." Recalling the unbearable memories of that time, ever since he met Mu Yegui, his hair volume has never reached a normal level. The only reason he didn't go bald was because he used hair growth cream every day.

"Ahem, now that everyone's here, shouldn't we get started?" Dao Lin coughed lightly as a reminder.

“That makes sense. We have another show to catch up on after this one, so we don’t have much time to waste,” Shui Qi said thoughtfully.

"Let's set aside the other issues for now and get straight to the point: the discussion about the Real Gems. We can address the other issues after we've finished discussing the Real Gems," Ming Jin nodded and said.

"I remember there was a hint that one of the crown princes obtained the real gem, which then triggered the Royal Decree. I'm curious, who is that person?"

Have any of you ever seen a real gemstone?

Shui Qi and Ji Rong spoke at the same time, then looked at each other and laughed.

"Is this it?" Mu Yegui said, taking out three rings of different colors and placing them on the table.

Three completely different gemstone rings—white, black, and yellow—were so dazzling they hurt everyone's eyes.

People: Grass (a type of plant).

Nightmare - Mu Ye Gui

Guess which three they are; you've all seen them before.
