Chapter 251: The Empress Eats Sour Grapes with Grievance
(6 updates!!! Begging for auto-subscribe!!!)
Only after these female leads had taken advantage of Xu Chen did they leave one after another.
Those without sects followed Xu Chen, planning to return to the Tianzun Dynasty.
As for the situation over at Bian Sai, Yin Suyun stayed behind.
She had already advanced to Ninth Grade Perfection, and then Xu Chen gave her a Tianxuan Jinling Pill.
Given time, she would be able to advance to Martial Saint.
A single Martial Saint commanding the frontier pass was more than enough.
Before Xu Chen left, he had Zhao Qingyun give half of the Bodhi Transformation Spiritual Saliva and the Endless Revival Grass to Di Cangqiong.
This way, Di Hanzhi's illness would basically be resolved.
As for the Tianxuan Jinling Pill, he also gave one to every female lead.
No other reason—purely because these female leads had helped him quite a bit.
Afterward, he returned to the Tianzun Dynasty, and soon saw the Empress who had come to greet him.
At this moment, the Empress looked at Xu Chen with a face full of grievance: "Do you still have any Tianxuan Jinling Pills?"
Xu Chen bared his teeth: "Your Majesty, you should have already advanced to Martial Saint by now."
What a joke—how could the dignified Empress of the Imperial Dynasty be only Ninth Grade?
Normally she didn't make a move, simply hiding her strength, to avoid letting enemies figure out her true capabilities.
The Empress snorted coldly: "I don't care, I just want one. You can't give them Pills and not give me."
Xu Chen: "......"
She could even get jealous over this—it really made him go numb.
Thinking this, he handed the Empress a Tianxuan Jinling Pill.
Seeing this, a smile finally appeared on the Empress's face: "Isn't this Sovereign still shortchanged somehow?"
Xu Chen bared his teeth: "No, please Your Majesty don't listen to rumo—"
No need to look—the Empress just wanted to make improper advances on him.
Could he let her succeed? Of course not.
But before Xu Chen could finish speaking, the Empress's body had already leaned close to his face, leaving an extra lip print on Xu Chen's face.
Then the Empress left swiftly, like a dragonfly skimming the water.
Xu Chen: "...... 々."
Done for!
He had just wiped off those thirteen rouge prints and rouge scents, and now there were new ones the moment he turned his head—anyone would go numb.
Yet, he had no way to deal with it.
Xu Chen pursed his lips and said: "Your Majesty, I need to go into closed-door cultivation for a while recently, it might be quite long. Do you have any place to recommend?"
The Empress said with grievance: "How long is quite long? Aren't you going to keep me company?" Xu Chen coughed: "Quite long, probably about a year." The Empress said seriously: "A year? Heavens, I won't see you for a whole year?
No, I won't allow it, unless you let me cultivate together with you. I want to protect you." Xu Chen: "......" Was that really for cultivating together with him? He felt embarrassed to call her out. Xu Chen said speechlessly: "Is there one or not?" The Empress said faintly: "There is, the Imperial Dynasty has a Forbidden Land, it's full of killing aura inside, but the Spiritual Qi is also exceptionally dense.
The pressure inside is extremely powerful; those below Martial Saint cannot enter.
There's no opportunity inside either, but the only point is, it's suitable for Martial Saints to cultivate." Xu Chen's eyes lit up: "So you're saying, it can temper the physical body?" The Empress nodded: "Not only can it temper the physical body, it can also temper Divine Sense.
Because there are many undead inside, they will disturb your mind.
If you can endure it, you can elevate your Divine Sense; if you can't endure it, you might go mad.
Saying this, you understand what I mean, right?"
Xu Chen nodded: "You mean to say, don't let me push myself too hard, right?"
The Empress also nodded: "Right. The reason it's a Forbidden Land is precisely because of this. Previously, quite a few Martial Saints who entered truly went mad."
Xu Chen said with a light laugh: "It doesn't matter, I like this kind of Forbidden Land the most." For Xu Chen, places that were too safe were boring.
Only in places with this kind of oppressive pressure could his strength improve rapidly.
