Chapter 721

She has feelings for me, and I have feelings for her; isn't this a perfect match?

Moreover, Wu Xingyun is quite generous; after following me, she gave me the four sword attendants—Mei, Lan, Zhu, and Ju—along with all the disciples of the Nine Heavens and Nine Departments as a dowry.

I gave the disciples of Mei, Lan, Zhu, Ju, and the Nine Heavens and Nine Departments a chance to choose, but they were all willing to leave with me, so I packed up and took the entire Vulture Palace with me.

Leaving the Tianshan Misty Peak, I rushed to the Chu capital in Guangling Dao and met Jiang Ni.

At this time, Jiang Ni is the Empress of Great Chu; although she appears both majestic and overbearing, seemingly enjoying boundless glory, it is unfortunately only glory on the surface.

Great Chu has just been rebuilt, crises lurk in the shadows, and the imperial court is treacherous; she has to deal with hypocritical ministers every day, so when she saw me, she cried out of grievance and soon fell asleep in my arms.

It seems she is indeed not good at intrigue; the coldness and dominance on her face are actually her protective colors, and in reality, her mental state is on the verge of collapse.

After all, the officials only treat her and Great Chu as stepping stones for their own private gain; she must also be able to feel that the officials are physically in the Chu camp but mentally elsewhere, so she feels very exhausted.

Naturally, I will not let her suffer this grievance; besides, I came to the Chu capital with the intention of taking her away. Let's just ignore this damn Great Chu; let those Chu officials who want to use the country for their own gain play by themselves.

As for whether they live or die in the future, or when Great Chu will perish, that depends on their own fate.

However, I didn't expect that the Beauty of the Spring and Autumn Thirteen, the Empress of Great Chu who was famous throughout the world, actually didn't die, and she, with her peerless beauty, is also named Bao Si, the same name as the favorite concubine of King You of Western Zhou.

It is rumored that Zhou Youwang, in order to make Bao Si smile, repeatedly lit the beacon fires to tease the feudal lords, causing them to no longer trust the beacons. When foreign enemies truly invaded, Zhou Youwang lit the beacons again, but no lords came to the rescue, leading to the fall of Western Zhou. No wonder some say the fall of Great Chu was caused by her, this femme fatale.

But this is just a coincidence; the fall of a country stems from many reasons and is generally caused by a foolish and incompetent emperor. How can the matter of a country's fall be blamed on a woman?

Since I want to take Jiang Ni away, I naturally have to take Bao Si as well; otherwise, if I leave her alone in this crisis-ridden Great Chu, I won't have peace of mind!】

"Hmph, 'no peace of mind'—it's just that you can't bear to see such a great beauty die, right? Being titled the Beauty of the Spring and Autumn shows her peerless appearance; you must have been moved by her looks!"

The heroines snorted coldly, feeling that Lin Fan must have taken a fancy to Bao Si's beauty, which is why he took her away.

【Speaking of which, tonight is also my last night in the Comprehensive Martial Arts World; tomorrow I will leave this world. It's a pity, there are still too many beauties in this world I haven't managed to win over.

Although I already have over a hundred wives by my side, and the beauties of the over a hundred maids from Zilan Pavilion, Yihua Palace, and Vulture Palace are all above average, I am still greedy and want more.

However, things in life often go against one's wishes eight or nine times out of ten; being able to have over a hundred wives is already a blessing from the heavens. As for the other beauties, I suppose it's just that our fate is not enough!】

"He is leaving tomorrow; does that mean I will never have a chance to be with him? Is it really that our fate is not enough?"

The heroines' moods sank. Perhaps it really was that their fate was not enough; although they were fortunate enough to obtain a copy of Lin Fan's diary, and Lin Fan had traveled through most of the Jianghu, they still hadn't managed to meet him. Doesn't this just mean they have a connection but no fate?

【Forget it, I'm leaving tomorrow, so I might as well go to sleep early. As for the remaining beauties in the Comprehensive Martial Arts World, I can only regret missing them!】

Lin Fan finished writing his diary and prepared to claim today's diary reward.

"Special situation detected. Does the host wish to convert today's diary reward into a mysterious surprise?"

Just then, the system's cold, mechanical voice rang out in Lin Fan's mind.

"What special situation? System, did you catch a virus?"

Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, then asked curiously.

"Special situation detected. Does the host wish to convert today's diary reward into a mysterious surprise?"

The system did not answer Lin Fan's question but repeated it again.
