Chapter 160

"The previous National Preceptor?"

Wei Jinzhong was momentarily taken aback.

A figure surfaced unbidden in his mind.

A glint flashed through his eyes.

He nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"If we could get the previous National Preceptor to take the field, that would be more than enough!"

Although nearly a hundred years had passed since the previous National Preceptor Liu Bowen stepped down.

He still thought of him first thing!

There was no helping it.

His influence was simply too great.

One could put it this way.

The Founding Emperor being able to carve out a place for himself on the Nine Provinces Continent.

At least half of that credit belonged to the man!

From this single point alone, one could glimpse the whole leopard and see the full picture!

Most importantly.

The man not only had real strength, but his mind was also exceptionally sharp.

As long as he could get the thing into his hands.

He would dare to be certain.

Even if the other two parties harbored crooked intentions.

Liu Bowen absolutely would not come out on the losing end!

Let alone have any mishaps befall him!!

"Good! Since that's the case, then I shall make a trip."

Zhu Houzhao, who had also thought of this same point.

Smiled and gave his assent.

Clapped his hands and made the decision.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Wei Jinzhong chimed in with a beaming smile.

Azure Dragon Peak, Azure Dragon Shanzhuang.

Ximen Wudi had just returned to his courtyard and sat down.

Jiang Yuyan hadn't even finished brewing the tea.

When a flurry of hurried footsteps rang out from afar.

Immediately following.

Li Taibai, clad all in white, came rushing over with a long, doleful face.

"Great Dragon Head, why must it come to this? Why must it come to this?!"

"What grudge, what grievance do the two of us have?"

"Why must you torment me like this?!"

While wailing.

Li Taibai acted as wronged as a two-hundred-jin child.

If not for the fact that quite a few people were still present.

He probably would have been unable to hold back and burst out crying on the spot.

He had been quite happy when he originally went into closed-door cultivation in high spirits.

Who would have thought.

The moment he came out of seclusion.

Before he could even see the color of the sky outside, a mountain of flesh had appeared before him!

Even though an extra-large red dudou was used.

It still couldn't contain that enormous belly!

Then he looked up.

And saw Qingcheng's stubbled, love-struck great big face.

As well as those thick, big lips.

And that smile like some creepy uncle.

If not for his iron-cast mental fortitude.

He would have nearly been sent off on the spot!

And that wasn't all.

Before he could even catch his breath.

A slender figure came dashing over.

Li Taibai, who had originally assumed it was some pretty maiden.

Was just grinning and preparing to strike a handsome pose.

When he caught sight of Qingcheng's face.

And the lovestruck, excited look upon it.

His very soul nearly scared clean out of his body.

His whole body shuddered violently.

His smile froze on his face.

In his mind, there were only nine big characters.

I want to escape!

But I can't get away!!!

What made him, who was usually outgoing and quick to warm up to people, even more at a loss was—

Qingguo and Qingcheng were actually even more familiar with him than he had shown himself to be.

They came right up and threw their arms around his shoulders, one on each side.

The way they looked was just like a customer walking into a brothel, embracing beauties on both sides.

Even while talking, they didn't forget to throw flirtatious glances!

Only, paired with that exaggerated figure and face,

no matter how you looked at it, it all seemed somewhat terrifying.

"No need to thank me. It's rare for you to have two brain-dead fans."

"I just gave you a hand with Shunshou Gang."

"What, you don't like it?"

He seemed to be picturing the scene from back then.

Ximen Wudi spoke lightly.

Only on his face,

no matter what, he could not conceal the trace of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Then I really have to thank you!"

"Like it! How could I not like it!"

"Twenty-five hours! A full twenty-five hours!"

"Do you know how I spent these twenty-five hours?!"

Li Taibai, his old face darkening, ground his teeth and snorted.

His face was full of humiliation!

While speaking,

two lines of clear tears even slowly slid down from the corners of his eyes!

He truly had not expected—

he, who had always been addicted to wine as if it were his life.
