Chapter 64

Xiao Ming attributed all the blame to himself.

Since he knew Chu Ruoyan was not in the residence, he climbed over the wall and chased out, rushing from here toward the palace gate, looking very much like a warrior charging for love.

Perhaps it was because Chu Ruoyan left very early, or perhaps it was because Chu Ruoyan urged the carriage to be faster at that time.

Xiao Ming never caught up to the carriage, and in front of him was the cold palace gate.

Seeing this, the Sage's remnant soul was simply relieved.

He was afraid that Xiao Ming would catch up; if he did, he would be facing the palace's experts, who wouldn't let him off so easily.

"Master, I want to sneak into the palace!"

Xiao Ming was very uneasy now, he didn't know why.

Hearing this, the Sage's remnant soul immediately began to dissuade him.

"Maybe the Chu family girl just went to find the Emperor to chat like last time; presumably she will come back by herself when the time is up. This kind of thing hasn't happened just once or twice.

There are many experts in the palace; with your current cultivation, even if I help you, it will be difficult to sneak in. Moreover, if you are caught, you will implicate the Chu family girl. I think you should go back and wait for news."

This was the Sage's remnant soul's delaying tactic; he must not let Xiao Ming get carried away now.

Especially the last sentence, "implicate the Chu family girl," was what could truly make Xiao Ming calm down.

Xiao Ming's lickspittle attribute was overflowing; he wasn't afraid of death himself, but he was afraid of something happening to his goddess.

If doing this would hurt Chu Ruoyan, he would definitely choose not to do it.

So he followed the Sage's remnant soul's advice and returned to the Chu family's backyard to wait for news.

The familiar courtyard; he had been a lickspittle for too many years, and he was familiar with many things here, even more familiar than the Chu family's retainers.

Xiao Ming only hoped that the familiar her could return.

Seeing him like this, the Sage's remnant soul was complaining internally: If you had used even this much effort in cultivation, you wouldn't be in this state now.

That Chu family girl was only in the mid-stage of the Piercing Void Realm, only counting as an ordinary genius.

She had never chosen you, wasn't it because you weren't outstanding enough?

Your strength was in the mid-stage of the Piercing Void Realm, already counting as a proper heaven-favored child, which was already incredible in other places.

If that Chu family girl met you alone, she would definitely have a good impression of you.

But the Imperial Capital was not short of heaven-favored children; at that time, your competitor Liu Hao was in the late-stage of the Piercing Void Realm, one level higher than you in strength.

Another competitor, Wu Qi, was in the early-stage of the Piercing Void Realm, but his grandfather was in the Heavenly Abyss Realm and had hopes of breaking through to the Sage Realm; his family background was thicker than yours.

You guys were all evenly matched, so that girl didn't know who among you was more outstanding, so she simply didn't choose anyone and kept you all as fish.

Was this the Chu family girl deliberately keeping fish?

That was certainly not the case; it was you guys who insisted on letting her keep you as fish.

If you listened to me and cultivated to the Six Realms Realm, two realms higher than the Chu family girl, and had higher potential than those other two boys, and then put on an attitude of "if you don't go with me, I'll find other women," how could she not choose you?

You brat insisted on being a lickspittle, following that girl from morning to night. Now the new Emperor has entered the scene; people's strength might have some water in it, but their status is not fake. You guys can't snatch her; who can you blame for this?

At this very moment, Xiao Ming was very panicked inside; he was afraid of Li Chen taking advantage of his goddess, even thinking of Li Chen touching Chu Ruoyan's hand made him feel very uncomfortable.

The Sage's remnant soul was also panicked now; he was constantly encouraging Li Chen internally to work hard and take Chu Ruoyan quickly.

If he waited for Chu Ruoyan to return, he would have to suffer again.

Li Chen was indeed working very hard at this time.

I don't know if it was because he felt the Sage's remnant soul's cheering, but he began to put in more effort.

The waiting time was torture every moment.

Not only was Xiao Ming tortured, but the Sage's remnant soul was also tortured.

For every minute Xiao Ming waited, Li Chen was happy for sixty seconds.

Until around 6 PM, a full 8 hours had passed since Chu Ruoyan entered the palace. A retainer ran in, and the Chu family began to cheer.

Xiao Ming's heart was beating very fast; he pressed his ear near the Chu family's main hall to eavesdrop.

The news he heard next almost stopped his heart!

Because the eunuch from the palace was in the main hall, saying that the Chu family's eldest daughter had already been favored by His Majesty and had become a concubine in the palace.

Once this news came out, the entire Chu family was cheering.

The Chu family directly changed from a second-rate family to relatives of the Emperor!

The maid had a chance to be promoted to a palace maid!

The Chu family also received generous rewards!

Li Chen was refreshed, and Chu Ruoyan was satisfied.

The Sage's remnant soul finally set his heart at ease and almost couldn't help laughing out loud, praising this Emperor for his high efficiency.

Only the world where Xiao Ming was injured was achieved.

Once he thought of his goddess having already had relations with someone else, his whole person began to twist.

At this moment, the Sage's remnant soul in the necklace discovered that the energy in Xiao Ming's body was growing crazily.

This kind of terrifying cultivation speed was rare!

It seemed this brat was absolutely a hidden holy body, it was just that the activation condition was too outrageous.

!

Xiao Ming, with his anger rising to his head, rushed out directly; looking at that momentum, he was going to kill his way into the palace.

Was this a big problem? Not big at all.

The Sage's remnant soul had long since thought of a plan; how could Xiao Ming outplay him?

Before he had run out for long, the Sage's remnant soul directly forcibly controlled Xiao Ming's body.

"Master, let me go! I want to fight that dog Emperor to the death!"

Xiao Ming's brain could no longer think normally now; he just wanted to kill Li Chen to vent his anger.

Seeing the crazy Xiao Ming, the Sage's remnant soul scolded: "Disciple, if you go to your death now, wouldn't that Chu family girl have waited for you in vain!"

This made Xiao Ming feel somewhat inexplicable; Chu Ruoyan was already an Imperial Consort, why was she still waiting for me?

But the name Chu Ruoyan did indeed make him, with his very strong lickspittle attribute, stop his steps.

Seeing his disciple recover a little, the Sage's remnant soul began to continue to hoodwink him: "You also know that just now the Chu family girl was preparing to draw her sword to seek death, but for the sake of waiting for you, she chose to compromise with the Emperor. If you die now, wouldn't she have suffered so many grievances in vain?"

This sentence made Xiao Ming's lickspittle attribute awaken again.

He felt the Sage's remnant soul was right!

Chu Ruoyan must have suffered huge grievances; she must have suffered them for me!

Sensing that Xiao Ming's train of thought began to become 'correct', the Sage's remnant soul began to stand on the moral high ground to kidnap him.

"Do you truly like that Chu family girl?"

"I am sincere!"

Xiao Ming almost shouted this sentence out.

Having been a lickspittle for so many years, he felt he liked Chu Ruoyan more than anyone else.

Of course, every lickspittle's thoughts were actually the same.

This Sage's remnant soul was already used to it; you just crave people's bodies, why talk so nobly?

From your border city to here, how many have you already liked?

It's just that the Chu family girl is indeed beautiful, so it's only natural that you like her the most.

The Sage's remnant soul had how many years of experience; how could he not understand these things?

In the past, he treated Xiao Ming as a disciple and took some care of Xiao Ming; to put it bluntly, it was spoiling him. Whatever Xiao Ming wanted, he, as a master, tried hard to give.

But now, the Sage's remnant soul felt he couldn't continue to spoil him; he wanted to let Xiao Ming become a true powerhouse.

So the Sage's remnant soul continued to moral kidnap him: "Then I ask you, since you are sincere, then she is already someone's wife, or has already given birth to a child, can you accept it?"
