Glamorous Journey Of The Female Protagonist - Chapter 279

Li Ming was definitely not prepared for the grandiose and elegance of the Heaven Realm.

The entire realm was filled with power and beauty. Whether it was in nature or in the Immortals that were appearing out of teleportation arrays to join the banquet.

The luxurious life of these Immortals was beyond her imagination. But while there were a lot of Immortals clad in luxury, her eyes detected some others who appeared simply dressed yet still elegant.

She felt a pair of hands circling her waist from behind and soon the very familiar scent of the Heaven Emperor entered her nose.

“Are you alright?”

He asked her softly as he too looked down at the grand entrance of the Golden Palace.

They were currently inside the East Tower of the Palace and Li Ming had been looking down at the Immortals who were appearing to attend the banquet.

“I don’t know. I can’t even remember the last time when I was this nervous.” She replied truthfully as she let her body relax against her mate’s body.

“You will be fine, trust me. And we all will be there for you.” The Heaven Emperor told her as he planted a soft kiss in her hair.

Li Ming took a deep breath before she pulled away from the window and her mate as she walked towards the other side of the room where the rest of her mates were sitting.

Their presence helped in calming down her racing heart and she found herself relaxing.

“Want to share exactly what is making you so nervous?”

Hei Long’s sudden question made everyone quietened down as they all turned to look at their beautiful mate.

They all had felt her anxiety and the tension that was present in her body, but none of them wanted to pressure her to talk.

But looked like the Second Demon Prince was no longer able to take in her distressed state.

“It’s nothing. I’m just nervous about meeting everyone at the banquet, that’s all.” She tried to make them believe her but one look at their faces and she knew that she failed very badly.

The Moon Immortal stood up from his seat as he moved to stand next to her. As soon as his hand went to wrap around her shoulder, Li Ming found herself leaning against him for support.

“Can you really not share it with us?” He asked her softly as he took hold of both of her hands and entangled their fingers together.

She turned her face to look at him and all that she found in his eyes was pure love and concern for her.

The same emotions she could see on the faces of the rest of her mates.

“I’m really worried about the banquet….”

She was silent for a few seconds before she started speaking again, finally letting them know about the fear that had been making her anxious ever since she first got the invitation.

“We are going to attend the banquet as couples. But….what if….if they won’t accept this? As much as I know, something like this has never happened in your world before. While it’s common for a man to have more than one wife, it’s not common or acceptable for a woman to have more than one partner. Are we really going to be an exception?”

Her question was followed by a silence that did not sit right with her already tensed mind.

“The prophecy which was made thousands of years ago is known by everyone. The three realms will be more than happy to accept you. They will never judge our relation since everyone believes so strongly and positively in fate. Almost everyone in all three realms is aware of our relationship. The only difference is that we are going to make it official today.”

It was who decided to speak.

He walked to her other side and placed one of his hands above her and Moon Immortal’s entangled hands.

“I know that you are worried about how everyone is going to react to bonds. But you have to trust us, everything is going to be fine.”

His words held power and comfort, and most importantly they held a promise. He would not let anything destroy their beautiful relations.

Li Ming found her heart and soul finally calming down a little. While her concerns were still present but she believed her mates.

“Now, can you finally show us your beautiful smile? I’m really dying to see it!”

It was Zhang Yong who decided to lighten the mood by teasing her.

His trick worked to some points because immediately Li Ming chuckled at his words as she shook her head at his antics.

Her eyes landed on the Second Demon Prince who was staring right back at her and as she noticed the fire in his eyes, she felt her body and soul reacting to him.

It had been so long since she last felt his touch. They had barely interacted within the past few months.

He was always present at their dinner gatherings or other times when all seven of them decided to spend some quality time together, but he never came too close to her.

And even though her soul, body, and heart wanted to feel his nearness, she never tried to do anything like that.

She did not want to increase his suffering and her pain was almost nothing when compared to what he was going through.

“We have a banquet to attend, Little mate. That’s why you need to control yourself. We can’t be distracted at this point.”

She heard Supreme Immortal whispering those words in her ear and his hoarse voice made her realize that her desire for Hei Long was affecting the rest of her mates too!

Well, one part of her mind wanted to forget about the banquet and just enjoy a beautiful time with her mates!

However, a great surprise was waiting for her! The Golden Banquet was going to change her life and she was totally oblivious to it!
