Chapter 673

The Decayed Fairy had originally thought that establishing the Great Dou Dynasty would require some effort, such as needing her and the Yun girl to take action, overthrow the Great Xia Dynasty, and establish a new imperial court.

Considering that overthrowing Great Xia could not be solved by force alone and that she would likely encounter many obstacles in practice, the Decayed Fairy had always been too lazy to go to the outside world to establish the Great Dou Dynasty.

Who would have thought that the Great Xia imperial family would be so easy to talk to; whoever she wants to be emperor can be emperor.

She is now the Acting Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect, the Master of the Heavenly Court, and will soon be the founding emperor of the Great Dou Dynasty. She is the leader of the three greatest powers in the world, a treatment she never enjoyed even in the ancient era.

She just said, how can there be so much scheming in the world? Look, everyone is a good person.

Lu Yang looked at the Decayed Fairy with suspicion and uncertainty. "Fairy, was your intelligence in the past just an act?"

"Little Yangzi, why do you keep looking at me?" The Decayed Fairy looked at Lu Yang, puzzled. It was the first time she had seen the Second-in-Command show such a shocked expression.

"N-nothing, I just think you are quite smart, Fairy."

"Of course I am smart." Although she didn't understand why the Second-in-Command would suddenly say this, she was still very happy to hear him praise her intelligence.

In reality, Meng Meng Jingzhou was full of admiration for the Decayed Fairy's answer. As expected of an Immortal; not only is her cultivation base the most respected since ancient times, but even her emotional intelligence is so high that it is beyond reach.

Looking at Lu Yang, he has let an Immortal follow him for nothing. How many years have passed, and he hasn't learned anything, only knowing how to scheme against himself all day long.

Learn something properly in the spiritual space!

Hearing the Decayed Fairy's answer, everyone's expressions changed. What a sharp reaction! Not only did she cleverly avoid answering, but she also trapped the Second Prince!

It would be wrong for the Second Prince to answer "Lu Yang has the final say" or "Lu Yang does not have the final say."

To say he has the final say is treason, a capital crime; to say he does not have the final say means Lu Yang is useless, and the Second Prince would have no face to associate with him anymore.

With this level of scheming and calculation, combined with this heaven-defying cultivation base, no wonder she is called the number one person of the younger generation!

Even Venerable Wuyu could not reach this level when he was young!

Fortunately, the Second Prince was meticulous. Although he was startled by the Decayed Fairy's answer, he continued to pretend to be drunk. This way, even if things came to light later, he would have an excuse.

Unexpectedly, the Decayed Fairy said again: "If you don't know who should be emperor, then I will be. Do you want to seek a position here with me?"

The Second Prince immediately broke into a cold sweat and dared not pretend to be drunk anymore.

If he kept pretending, who knows what other treasonous things Lu Yang might say.

It is said that when they were in the Luo Tian Forest, Lu Yang once spoke wildly, saying he wanted to establish the Great Dou Dynasty, and now he is repeating this topic.

Could it be that he had already anticipated his own behavior when he was in the Luo Tian Forest!

What terrifying calculation.

Some jokes Lu Yang can make, but he cannot.

Who is Lu Yang? The next Sect Master of the Profound Heaven Sect, deeply valued by the semi-immortal level Miss Yun Zhi. During his disappearance in the East Sea, the Han Hai Daoist personally went to the East Sea to find Lu Yang, which is enough to show the importance the Han Hai Daoist places on Lu Yang, not to mention that Lu Yang also saved the ancient ancestor of the Dragon Clan.

The future Sect Master of the Immortal Sect, who also has extremely close relationships with three semi-immortals; whether in status or background, no one can compare.

As long as Lu Yang just talks about it and isn't truly plotting rebellion, who would dare to touch him?

Even his father wouldn't dare.

"Fellow Daoist Lu Yang is joking." The Second Prince dared not continue the conversation. If he kept following along, let alone inheriting the throne, it would be questionable whether he could even keep his position as a prince.

The Second Prince looked at the Decayed Fairy with hidden awe. It was the first time he had encountered a genius with a mind more meticulous than his own.

There is always someone better, and there is always a heaven beyond heaven.

The Decayed Fairy did not understand why everyone looked at her with awe. Was it because she was going to be emperor?

That seems to make sense.

The Second Prince changed the subject and pointed to the dancing girls, saying: "Fellow Daoist Lu Yang, do you have any interest in these dancing girls? If you are interested, you can take them all back. Dual cultivation with them can also increase your cultivation base."

"What do I need them for?"

Seeing Lu Yang refuse, the Second Prince was not surprised. With Ye Mengyin as a pearl before him, these dancing girls indeed could not catch his eye.

He clapped his hands, and a team of attendants holding trays filed out from a small room. The trays were filled with all kinds of rare treasures and cultivation manuals, which were very helpful for cultivation. Any one of them taken out would be qualified to be the grand finale auction item at an auction, and even other invited guests would be envious upon seeing these things.

His Highness has really spent a fortune.

"I felt like old friends with Fellow Daoist Lu Yang at first sight, so I prepared some small gifts. Please do not refuse them, Fellow Daoist Lu Yang."

The Decayed Fairy was indeed quite dismissive. She only glanced at them and recognized the origin of these things. They were of no help to her; the stones at the entrance of her cave dwelling were more valuable than these things.

But on second thought, these things were not for her to use, but for Lu Yang.

Then they were still somewhat helpful.

These treasures were carefully prepared by the Second Prince for Lu Yang, just to make friends with this helper. If Lu Yang could accept these things, it would mean that Lu Yang would be inclined to stand on his side.

The Second Prince secretly observed Lu Yang's reaction, feeling extremely nervous.

"Given for free?" The Decayed Fairy thought to herself that there really are many good people in the Imperial City.

"Naturally." The Second Prince nodded and smiled.

"Then I won't be polite. Thank you."

The lead attendant took out a storage ring, collected the items from the trays into the storage ring, and presented it with both hands.

Seeing the Decayed Fairy accept the storage ring, the Second Prince's smile widened.

It seems that everything said before was just because he didn't want to be tested.

To take a step back, having accepted these treasures, even if he doesn't support him in the future, he won't oppose him either.

Talking about being given for free; one shouldn't accept rewards without merit. How can there be things given for free in the world? Everything has a price.

"Fairy, you shouldn't have taken these things."

In the spiritual space, the young Lu Yang said with some worry. If it were him, he wouldn't accept anything from the Second Prince.

"Hmm? Why can't I accept them?" The Decayed Fairy didn't understand why her golden finger was so anxious.

"Accepting the gifts is equivalent to picking a side."

"Picking a side? Picking what side?"

"If you eat someone's food, you'll be soft-mouthed; if you take someone's things, you'll be short-handed. If you take the things, you have to do things for the Second Prince." Lu Yang explained in as simple terms as possible.

"Didn't I confirm it before taking them? They were just given for free." The Decayed Fairy is cautious in her actions, leaving no stone unturned.

"Then if you become enemies in the future, will you take action against the Second Prince?"

"Of course I will." The Decayed Fairy felt that the Second-in-Command's question was inexplicable.

"Besides, I didn't take them for nothing. I already said thank you."

Lu Yang: "..."

Am I too thin-skinned? Should I learn more from the Fairy?
