Protagonist:

Xuan Ge

"Cantarella, what are you doing here?"

Ke Lai Ta knew she couldn't stop Xuan Ge's gaze, so she could only point her spear at Cantarella.

There's no time to fight that non-existent woman now; she must seize the initiative back from Cantarella.

Otherwise Xuan Ge will really be taken away by that bad woman Cantarella.

"Me~" Cantarella showed a charming smile, "I'm naturally here to invite Xuan Ge to visit the Hefisalet Family."

Pausing a moment, Cantarella stepped forward, arriving one step away from Xuan Ge.

"By the way, let me tell you a secret."

"Hmph~" Ke Lai Ta stepped forward, shielding Xuan Ge behind her, and began facing Cantarella's two lumps of fat head-on.

"Xuan Ge is already betrothed to me; he's currently about to go check out the Motari Family."

This is a lie.

Ke Lai Ta knew that without Zan Ni present, she had absolutely no advantage.

So she could only go for broke, attempting to wake Xuan Ge up.

"Oh~ Is that so~" Cantarella's smile deepened, effortlessly tearing apart Ke Lai Ta's lie.

"Only half a day has passed; Miss Ke Lai Ta wouldn't have gotten engaged just because of a gemstone, would she?"

"My affairs are none of your business."

Ke Lai Ta crossed her arms, trying to puff out her slightly modest chest.

She was now level with Cantarella's large chest, trying to reclaim some dignity for herself.

"Then I indeed can't interfere; after all, it's the Motari Family's matter."

Cantarella didn't take the bait, turning straight toward her target.

"Mr. Xuan Ge, the Hefisalet Family has prepared a banquet; I wonder if you'd grace us with your presence?"

"Cough cough, some other time then; the banquet can wait until after things are finished."

Xuan Ge exerted all his strength, yet couldn't tear his gaze away.

And the reason he pulled himself out of the big one this time was because Kathisia's condition worsened.

If he doesn't coax her soon, she'll really be ruined.

Xuan Ge's answer stunned both Cantarella and Ke Lai Ta.

Meanwhile Kathisia revealed a victor's smile.

Kathisia: You two are the challengers.

"That's true." Cantarella showed no disappointment, only some surprise, "Looks like Mr. Xuan Ge really knows how to hold a bowl of water level."

The Shorekeeper told her the Saintess was by Xuan Ge's side.

And when she was young, she had seen the Saintess's figure.

That was huge.

First come, first served; not rushing to eat — looks like Xuan Ge really understands balancing the waters.

"Hmph~" Ke Lai Ta let out a soft hum, but she was very satisfied with this result.

Although she lost, at least she didn't lose to the Hefisalet Family; she has face.

"Xuan Ge, tomorrow is the Carnival Festival; the things you need, I can prepare for you……"

Ke Lai Ta wanted to continue pressing her attack, but Xuan Ge spoke up and interrupted her.

"Uh…… I have a mask."

Xuan Ge swiped his face, shamelessly putting on Xiao's Nuo Mask.

Only it's the Imperial Bow Color Scheme version.

Seeing a blue-gold colored ghost mask, both Cantarella and Ke Lai Ta twitched their mouth corners slightly.

This is a festival, not exorcising demons; the meaning of this mask is a bit too heavy.

But neither spoke up; after all, people can wear whatever they like.

"Alright then, I'll wait for you in the Plaza District tomorrow."

Ke Lai Ta nodded; just now she had perceived her grandfather's figure appearing Far Away.

"I'll come with Zan Ni then."

Before leaving she didn't forget to up the ante; after all, Zan Ni really attracts Xuan Ge.

Seeing Ke Lai Ta depart, Cantarella bowed again: "I will continue awaiting Xuan Ge Adult's arrival."

Finishing speaking, Cantarella suddenly threw a flirtatious wink at Xuan Ge, and slightly revealed a bit of the Voice Mark on her tongue.

Xuan Ge:!!!

Seeing Xuan Ge's auto-aim gaze, Cantarella left satisfied.

Looks like Ke Lai Ta's chips can't compare to hers.

The two departed, and the Trailblazer also stood up at the right moment.

"Tonight, are you going back with her?"

"Mm." Xuan Ge nodded slightly, then said: "Together then; taking advantage of now, let's go check out the High Tower first."

Xuan Ge didn't want the Drifter to investigate those meaningless things by the book; right now Leviathan is in the High Tower, trapped there.

If we don't act today, then we'll act tomorrow after seizing the Crown.

The Remnant Star Society and Ming Shi — both enemies are already out in the open; his patience is limited, and he needs to find the complete Kathisia immediately.

Of course, he really isn't doing this for the greater good; he just wants to save Kathisia.

"Good." The Trailblazer switched to a serious face in 0 seconds.

But Xuan Ge changed the topic, catching the Trailblazer off guard.

"Let's buy some groceries first; I'm a bit hungry."

Xuan Ge pinched Kathisia's small hand to comfort her; he has always remembered and will never forget.

Before leaving, he promised to let Kathisia taste his cooking.

Anything he promises, he never forgets.

Gui Ji: ……

"Uh……" The Trailblazer didn't react for a moment; he watched Xuan Ge and Kathisia silently gazing at each other, and he merely nodded.

"The Emperor actually cooks?" Abu floated in midair, stroking his chin as he looked at Xuan Ge.

Although its knowledge reserves aren't extensive, an Emperor cooking — isn't that a bit off?

If the Emperor cooks, wouldn't the chefs be trembling in fear, constantly reflecting on what's wrong with themselves?

"Why can't an Emperor cook?"

Xuan Ge replied with a smile and gestured for them to walk and talk.

"This Emperor of mine is different from the Emperor in your understanding."

"Eh?" Abu tilted his head. "What's different? Aren't they all Nine-Five Supremes who have clothes handed to them and meals served at the opening of their mouths?"

"What kind of Emperor are you?" Xuan Ge finished speaking, then froze, realizing he seemed to be exactly that kind of Emperor.

State affairs have Hua and the Envoys — one handles external matters, one handles internal.

Shen Wu has the Five Direction Generals and the Six Imperial Chariots; there's fundamentally no need for him to manage them.

Since becoming Emperor, aside from the initial resignation process and the grand court assemblies, he really has been a Foolish Ruler who has clothes handed to him, meals served at the opening of his mouth, and spends every day immersed in the Rear Palace.

Thinking it through, even Xuan Ge felt guilty.

"Cough, cough." Xuan Ge urgently dodged, adding: "Every time, I always lead battles and win every battle."

This seems to be the only thing he can show for himself; after all, with the Emperor charging ahead, no one dares fall back a step.

Once he goes up, the Shen Wu Corps' morale at least doubles.

"Wow, a Horseback Emperor too."

Abu nodded thoughtfully, not noticing Xuan Ge's embarrassment just now.

Everyone finished buying groceries; the Trailblazer carried Xuan Ge, Xuan Ge carried Kathisia, Kathisia carried Abu, and they flew up to the High Tower like that.

Seeing purple streamers flying toward the horizon, Ke Lai Ta's grandfather, Francis, withdrew his gaze.

"Ke Lai Ta, are you prepared to face an Emperor?"

Although Francis's tone wasn't soft, he was actually worried for Ke Lai Ta.

The Black Coast has provided the data; there's a 99.99% probability that Xuan Ge is the Xianzhou Emperor who possesses countless star domains.

And an Emperor's joy and anger are unpredictable; the Motari Family could be reduced to ashes with the slightest misstep.

"Grandfather, rest assured; I'm already prepared."

Ke Lai Ta replied seriously; she knows the gravity of this matter.

"But……"

Ke Lai Ta changed the topic: "But I can feel that Xuan Ge isn't the Emperor in our understanding; he's very kind."

"Kind?" Francis raised his brows slightly; he didn't feel that way at all.

He's seen so many people; Xuan Ge gave him the first impression of a smiling tiger.

People like that are ruthless in everything they do.

"Grandfather, have you ever seen an Emperor who could be hard-controlled by a Shura field?"

Francis was stunned at those words, then his mouth twitched.

"Then be a bit braver." Francis had no choice; Ke Lai Ta seems to have truly fallen for Xuan Ge.

"Oh right, I ordered some tonics from out of town; remember to eat them on time."

Francis turned and left after saying that.

As for what the tonics are, he didn't need to say; Ke Lai Ta knows too.
