Chapter 1695: ?Zhao Linger: Big Bro, You Just Said Qin Shi Huang Is Your Good Buddy, Didn't You?!
"Since the matter on your side has already been settled, then I should be heading back as well."
Su Han gave Ying Zheng a slight nod.
"...... I truly don't know how I should ever thank you."
Ying Zheng's words carried a trace of emotion.
And that single sentence once again caused the pupils of the people below to subtly shift.
This was the first time Ying Zheng had referred to himself as 'I' since ascending the throne.
In front of others, Ying Zheng had always used 'zhen'.
However, recalling the astonishing methods Su Han had displayed earlier, they fell silent once more.
They felt Ying Zheng's making such a decision was only natural.
"Didn't we already say before that it was only right?"
Su Han rubbed his nose, "Besides, didn't you also send a red packet in the guild to thank me?"
Ying Zheng shook his head. How could a life-saving grace be made up for with something so simple? Even if Su Han said so, Ying Zheng could not possibly do that.
Whether out of his own inherent character, or out of respect for the power Su Han possessed, he could not possibly do so.
Su Han said nothing more. A brilliant radiance swirled around his body, and then he returned to another world.
However, before leaving, he cast a thoughtful glance at the corner of the great hall's wall.
There, the Moon Goddess and the Lesser Grandmaster stood quietly.
After Su Han departed, the entire Qin dynasty great hall remained deathly silent.
"My lords,"
Ying Zheng's expression was calm and icy. Compared to the casualness he had shown before Su Han, he had now returned to his lofty, imperious bearing. Sweeping his gaze across those present, Ying Zheng said in an even voice, "Let us resume the morning court from before!"
After a brief silence, the people all answered in low voices.
Not a single word was mentioned about Su Han's matter.
Anyone with eyes could see that Ying Zheng held Su Han in great esteem, and none of them had any intention of leaking Su Han's affairs.
Those who could rise to such positions were all indisputable prodigies of this era, every one of them a shrewd and calculating person.
Naturally, they would not do something that was bound to be futile and might even arouse Ying Zheng's suspicion.
"...... What a terrifying person!"
The Moon Goddess's voice was utterly parched, unable to remain calm. "With a mere gesture, he plucked away an entire realm of time and space.
Fixing it into amber...... such a method! What on earth is this......"
The Moon Goddess recalled the scene from moments ago and still felt a sense of suffocation.
She was even choked up, unable to find words to describe it.
The power Su Han had displayed surpassed her imagination, surpassed the bounds of her world's understanding.
If gods truly existed in this world, then a god...... could only look like that.
The Lesser Grandmaster said nothing, merely turned around, fixed her gaze on the Moon Goddess, and waited for the Moon Goddess to make a decision.
After her expression shifted several times, the Moon Goddess issued the order in a steady voice, "Return first! Inform Lord Donghuang of the matter here, and then take our time to deliberate."
Behind Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng stood such a terrifyingly powerful existence.
This proved that Ying Zheng was far stronger and more unfathomable than they had imagined.
Under these circumstances, all the plans the Yin-Yang House had set down in earlier years must be remade from scratch.
From now on, they must adopt an even more cautious attitude in dealing with Ying Zheng.
"...... This world has gone mad!"
Accompanying a faint, drawn-out sigh, the figures of the Moon Goddess and the Lesser Grandmaster vanished completely.
...... The moment Su Han returned to his room, he saw Luo Cuilian currently chatting with Zhao Linger.
"What are you two discussing?"
Su Han raised an eyebrow.
Hearing this, Luo Cuilian's face showed not the slightest ripple of emotion. She gave a slight nod toward Su Han, then said with a smile, "I told you before, didn't I, that Brother-in-law couldn't possibly run into trouble! Look, hasn't he come back just like that?"
"I also knew big bro wouldn't run into trouble!"
Zhao Linger, noticing Su Han's somewhat amused gaze, gave an awkward little laugh. "It's just that I'm a little curious about what big bro went off to do this time."
"This time I...... went to visit an old friend's home for a bit,"
Su Han's voice paused slightly, and he said meaningfully, "There was a squad of ordinary Reincarnators stirring up trouble in that old friend's world! Trying to overthrow his rule.
I helped him deal with that squad of Reincarnators.
Linger, what do you make of it?"
Zhao Linger: "!!!"
The hell do you think? I'm looking with my eyes, obviously.
After a long silence, Zhao Linger finally said very cautiously, "Actually! Reincarnators still have a fair amount of freedom."
"Except...... at certain specific times...... as long as one's strength meets the bar,
then the difficulty of a Reincarnator's main quest isn't actually that high for the Reincarnator...... If they really do cause a huge commotion, then nine times out of ten it's because they acted on their own initiative."
"I know."
Su Han nodded.
He had already learned this point earlier through his Observation Haki.
In fact, Su Han had a guess in his heart.
The reason ordinary Reincarnators' main quests don't cause much of a stir and are just small-scale scuffles might very well be... the fundamental reason ordinary Reincarnators don't end up on the guild's blacklist.
