Chapter 237: If it succeeds, then show your hand; if it doesn't, then pretend it never happened

Outside the Jiang residence, Jiang Mo's two senior brothers could only watch their junior sister ride off with Li Chen for a joyride.

That feeling was like two losers watching their goddess ride away in a supercar.

But they weren't ordinary people either; one was the Young Castle Master of the Heavenly Scorpion Castle, Luo Fei, and the other was the Young Master of the Chen family in Shanyin City, Chen Jiyu.

Not only were they heirs to their own major forces, but they were also close to being core disciples at the Jade Yu Xu Xian Fu.

With such status and position, and being handsome, they were popular wherever they went, absolutely standing out among their peers, but today they also experienced the feeling of being crushed by a 'peer'.

In front of Li Chen, it seemed everyone had the feeling of being a total failure.

Luo Fei's gaze only returned after the Holy Tiger disappeared, and he muttered: "If I had such a mount, how good that would be."

He also knew Jiang Mo liked divine pet mounts and had previously wanted to spend a large sum of money to buy one at an auction house.

Unfortunately, it was bought by someone else during the bidding. If he had inherited the Heavenly Scorpion Castle, he could have used all the wealth of his own force and bought that mount at the time.

Although it couldn't compare to the Holy Tiger, he felt that taking down Jiang Mo probably wouldn't be a problem.

Anyway, as long as they couldn't get it, when reviewing, they would wish they had tried a little harder at certain nodes.

"Don't think about it, that mount at the auction house last time was also average. I think at the very least it would have to be the level of our Sect Master's Ice Crystal Bai Lu to be enough. Didn't you notice that every time junior sister saw the Ice Crystal Bai Lu, her eyes were straight?"

Chen Jiyu was also comforting Luo Fei; he said this just to let Luo Fei know that thinking too much was useless, but he himself was also thinking about it.

Thinking of his tall and curvaceous junior sister in another man's arms made his heart ache.

After all, he had been pursuing her secretly for so many years, and not getting her now was indeed painful.

But the only thing to be glad about was that Luo Fei beside him hadn't gotten her either, otherwise he might have been jealous to the point of bleeding.

"Forget it, let's go back; we should consider something practical."

In Luo Fei's eyes, practical meant his backup girlfriend.

He certainly couldn't chase Jiang Mo, so he should cherish the person in front of him.

"It's just a bit unwilling, but what you said is also right."

Chen Jiyu also felt that his girlfriend was quite beautiful; if she weren't compared with Jiang Mo, she would also be a top-tier beauty.

The women of the Jiang family were truly too tempting; even His Majesty favored them, so it was normal that they couldn't hold out.

Just as they returned to the Jiang residence, the four women inside the Jiang residence also had their own plans.

"Qianqian, you're dressed up so beautifully; are you planning to take the opportunity to take down Jiyu?"

Zhong Ling had just walked into Xu Qianqian's room and saw Xu Qianqian putting on makeup and dressing up.

Actually, they were naturally beautiful and didn't need to dress up deliberately; they just needed to show off their cleavage.

Sect cultivators were generally very conservative, wrapped up tightly, so Xu Qianqian's current attire did indeed surprise Zhong Ling somewhat.

"Sister, I don't know if you're truly stupid or pretending to be stupid; with my attire, is Jiyu worthy of looking at it?"

Xu Qianqian was posing in front of the long mirror, striving to make every movement of hers seductive.

But this sentence of hers left Zhong Ling confused. They had always worked hard to pursue Luo Fei and Chen Jiyu, and even knowing their sweethearts liked other women, as long as their sweethearts hadn't completely rejected them, they still chose to turn a blind eye. Anyway, Jiang Mo didn't look down on them.

Now that Jiang Mo was clearly about to be conquered by His Majesty, wasn't this the perfect time for her and Xu Qianqian to take in their heartbroken boyfriends?

That was why Zhong Ling said that when she saw Xu Qianqian dressing up.

"Oh, I understand; we women don't necessarily dress up for others; dressing up can also be for ourselves. You want to tell me this, right."

Zhong Ling looked enlightened, appearing to have some understanding.

Xu Qianqian rolled her eyes at her and said: "They treat us as backups, only being good to us when they can't chase after someone better. Now that we might be able to meet someone better, why not give it a try?"

Hearing Xu Qianqian say this, Zhong Ling widened her eyes; only now did she understand that Xu Qianqian's attire wasn't for her boyfriend Chen Jiyu, but to please His Majesty!

Because the reason they had endured their boyfriends' philandering was that their boyfriends were indeed the two most outstanding peers in their circle, far exceeding others in terms of appearance, background, strength, or status.

If they didn't pursue, others would certainly pursue, and they had been pursuing for so long, so how could they easily give up.

Xu Qianqian's words made Zhong Ling somewhat tempted; this was a path that a conservative sect woman like her had never thought of.

That was the Emperor of the Tian Ce Dynasty, a person whose status and strength had reached the peak, and moreover, his appearance was so high; it was rare to have such an opportunity to make contact.

Thinking of this, Zhong Ling also began to dress up. It would be a loss for other men to see her figure, even her boyfriend; she couldn't give much, or even let him see.

But in front of Li Chen, they all wanted to wear less, letting Li Chen see more; who knew, maybe he would take a fancy to them.

Seeing her good sister open up, Xu Qianqian was also relieved; if it weren't for her good sister, I wouldn't tell you so much.

After a while, Zhong Ling suddenly felt that doing this seemed somewhat inappropriate, so she asked: "What if His Majesty doesn't take a fancy to us?"

This was a relatively serious problem; if His Majesty didn't take a fancy to them, and they were discovered by their boyfriends, wouldn't it be a huge loss?

As for the matter of pleasing His Majesty behind their boyfriends' backs, a conservative woman like Zhong Ling didn't have much psychological burden; after all, their boyfriends were doing exactly that.

Now that Jiang Mo didn't want them, they had a change of heart; who didn't want to find someone better?

Xu Qianqian saw her looking fearful and smiled mysteriously, saying: "We won't do it in front of them; if it succeeds, then show your hand; if it doesn't, then pretend it never happened."

Speaking of this, Xu Qianqian whispered her plan in Zhong Ling's ear, making Zhong Ling blush; this was too bold, but the method was indeed good.

Especially this sense of immorality made Zhong Ling feel incomparably stimulated just thinking about it.

On the other side of the Jiang residence, Wu Nanzhi was also working hard to speed up the progress.

You know, in Li Chen's harem, Wu Nanzhi's network was very large, and many consorts took her as the core.

Many consorts had entered the imperial palace through Wu Nanzhi, so they naturally had a good relationship with her.

Ning Tao was Jiang Mo's master and also an elder of the Jade Yu Xu Xian Fu, and her strength and appearance were not bad.

The disciples were all busy, and she was sitting alone in the hall, so Wu Nanzhi walked over and slowly began to chat with her.

They soon began to chat; as a woman, Wu Nanzhi naturally knew how to conquer a woman.

In the process of chatting, Wu Nanzhi kept inquiring about Ning Tao's hobbies; as long as she understood this, then letting Li Chen prescribe the right medicine would certainly be able to take her down.

Just like Jiang Mo, who couldn't refuse a divine pet mount. Wu Nanzhi estimated that Li Chen might have already succeeded by now.

Because according to Li Chen's personality, if it weren't in a situation with many people, he would basically go all out.

Otherwise, why would she be Li Chen's beloved consort? Li Chen was indeed working hard to get things done as she said.

Under Wu Nanzhi's efforts, Ning Tao also stated her 'hobbies'.

As a self-reliant female sword cultivator, the person she admired most was the Peerless Sword Venerable Mu Qingrou. In Mu Qingrou's 'biography', she had relied on her own efforts to cultivate to the Sage Realm, and she was the role model for countless female sword cultivators.

Many female sword cultivators also regarded her as a guiding light; Ning Tao had never said this before.

In the past, the Jade Yu Xu Xian Fu belonged to the Purple Heaven Heavenly Palace cultivation alliance, and the force where Mu Qingrou was located belonged to the Nine Abyss Holy Domain; the two alliances were on opposite sides.

Now that the relationship was a bit better, she dared to speak out.

Upon learning this news, Wu Nanzhi spoke: "What a coincidence, sister, Mu Qingrou is in the imperial palace in the Imperial Capital. Why don't I take you to see her? She is my good sister."

This news truly made Ning Tao somewhat surprised, and she asked: "Sister, why is Palace Master Mu in the imperial palace?"

!

Wu Nanzhi smiled lightly and indicated, what else could it be? She must have become Emperor Li Chen's consort.

After all, few people knew about such things, and it hadn't spread in the cultivation world.

The small circle of the Sage Realm knew, but these big shots didn't talk much.

Wu Nanzhi's goal was very simple: to trick Ning Tao into the imperial palace; as long as she went in, Li Chen would certainly have a way to resolve it.

Now Ning Tao was very conflicted internally; even though Li Chen could be considered to have helped her once, her disgust for the imperial family hadn't changed, but being able to see Mu Qingrou and talk to her idol was indeed a rare opportunity.

Otherwise, a female cultivator of her level might only be able to see Mu Qingrou from afar a few times in her life.

Wu Nanzhi saw that she was hesitating and spoke about the orbital train from the Imperial Capital to Yunhai City; Mu Qingrou had put a lot of effort into it, and if Ning Tao followed along this time, she might be able to witness a cross-era scene of the Tian Ce Dynasty together with Mu Qingrou.

Being able to have beautiful memories with her idol, Ning Tao was indeed tempted by this point, so she agreed.

She indicated: "Alright, since it is sister Nanzhi's invitation, then I will respectfully obey."

Ning Tao felt internally that this was just Wu Nanzhi's invitation, not her entering the palace, using this reason to persuade herself.

She also knew internally that there was a great risk after going to the imperial palace, but if she could see Mu Qingrou, a little risk was worth it.

Next was some chatting to draw closer the relationship; the two chatted about the embarrassing things of their childhood; women all liked to chat about these.

Chatting until about the time for dinner, Li Chen and Jiang Mo returned to the Jiang residence.

At this time, Jiang Mo's temperament was clearly different from when she went out; if one looked closely, one could still see many bite marks on her body; it seemed she had already experienced a bloody storm.

Her two senior brothers, seeing this, were extremely gnashing their teeth internally; the woman they had pursued for so many years without touching, someone else had settled with a 'supercar' in one go; it was a lie to say they weren't uncomfortable, let alone seeing the changes in front of their faces.

But the two of them just lowered their heads in extreme jealousy, not daring to look at Li Chen at all, fearing a beating.

Here, one had to mention that during the dinner, the person who performed relatively well was the head maid of the Jiang residence, who prepared some great tonics for Li Chen.

Which would help Li Chen's subsequent continuous fighting.

When Jiang Mo was chatting with her master Ning Tao, she deliberately avoided the topic after leaving on the Holy Tiger.

Upon hearing that her master had the intention of going to the Imperial Capital, Jiang Mo raised both hands in agreement; after all, she also had to go.

But Jiang Mo also found a reason for herself, which was to visit her sister.

Actually, everyone at the dinner table could see the actual situation, but everyone tacitly didn't point it out.

Regarding the address for Li Chen, Jiang Mo was still habitually calling him brother-in-law, and Li Chen also liked her way of saying it very much, always feeling it was very stimulating.

After the dinner ended, everyone returned to their rooms to rest. Jiang Mo was still embarrassed to be openly with Li Chen, so she followed her master to continue discussing some cultivation problems.

Her two senior sisters observed the opportunity, the two looked at each other secretly, and quietly headed toward Li Chen's room; success or failure depended on this one move!

To increase the success rate, they even wore their decisive lingerie.

Night fell, and the entire Jiang residence also began to have undercurrents moving.

The first to discover the abnormality was Jiang Mo's senior brother Luo Fei. Luo Fei originally planned to go to his girlfriend Zhong Ling's room to enhance their feelings; since he couldn't chase Jiang Mo, he should still lock down his girlfriend.

As a result, he couldn't find Zhong Ling, so he came to Xu Qianqian's place to ask. Now, not only did he not see Xu Qianqian, but he also saw Chen Jiyu, who was equally confused.

"What? Zhong Ling isn't in the room either?"

"I just went, she wasn't there; perhaps she went to find master."

The two calculated and planned to go to Ning Tao's place to see.

The Jiang residence was very large, and it wasn't easy for them to find the place where Ning Tao lived.

After asking the maid, the two came to the east courtyard of the Jiang residence.

But when they arrived near a rockery, they heard heavy breathing in the room next to them.

The two stood by the rockery for a while before confirming that there should be two women and one man in the room.

Without much thought, they knew the man should be His Majesty Li Chen; after all, there were only three men here, and both of them were here, so it was easy to guess who the other was.

As for those two women, it was actually not hard to guess; Jiang Mo and Li Chen already had a relationship, so she must be serving in bed, and the other was mostly Li Chen's Imperial Consort, that is, the woman with extreme beauty and a graceful figure.

Thinking of this, they felt as stifled as if they were being clawed by cats internally, and more of it was a man's envy.

Since His Majesty Li Chen was working hard, they should also work hard, quickly pick up their girlfriends, confirm the relationship, and be able to enjoy themselves.

Standing by the rockery for a while, they left, urgently needing to head to their master Ning Tao's room.

Ning Tao hadn't rested yet, and the room was bright.

When they walked nearby, they heard some laughter and conversation coming from inside, as if several women were chatting.

However, they felt it was very strange; why was there an ominous premonition?

After knocking on the door and entering the room, the scene in front of them shocked them.

There were three women in the room, namely master Ning Tao, junior sister Jiang Mo, and Imperial Consort Wu Nanzhi.

The two looked at each other, as if asking each other: Ah? Junior sister and the Imperial Consort are here, so who are the two women in His Majesty's room?
