"Your Majesty, you overpraise me. This humble servant is overwhelmed with fear.""As for the matter of the Wei family... no matter what, the Wei family is a subordinate of our Yun family. I will personally handle this issue."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Let’s have another drink."
"Your Majesty, drink in moderation."
"Feeling down? You look down on me? Drink~~~"
"This humble servant is fearful."
The two of them took turns, glass after glass, becoming more spirited as they drank, discussing everything from life ambitions to the world’s grand matters, and onto the endless void and the vast stars~~
"If given the chance, I want to bury myself among the endless stars. Shouzhe, pour another one."
The next day.
Wang Shouzhe himself didn’t know how he returned to the Northern Territory Royal Mansion’s side manor. Upon waking up, he felt a wave of confusion, with even the memories of last night blurry.
The emperor’s drink was too strong! It seems I can’t drink too much in the future.
"Husband, have some hangover soup." Liu Ruolan personally brought in the soup, sitting by the bed.
"Ruolan." Wang Shouzhe rubbed his temples and sat up to drink a sip of the hangover soup, "Thank you, my dear, for being considerate. I overindulged a bit last night."
"Husband, do not worry too much. As the family head of the Wang family, you are under great pressure daily. Occasionally indulging in beauty is also understandable." Liu Ruolan said with a sweet smile, "I just wonder when you’ll bring Tiange home? So I can also have a regular mahjong partner."
Wang Shouzhe was immediately taken aback and said, "What do you mean, my dear? The emperor and I are completely innocent."
"Husband, no need to be nervous. Look, Anye has married two, and Fugui has also married two." Liu Ruolan gently smiled, "As the head of a family, it’s normal to have such thoughts."
"No no no, my heart for Ruolan can be testified by heaven and earth, sun and moon as witness." Wang Shouzhe pledged solemnly, "The emperor and I were merely discussing official matters, not expecting to overdrink."
"Hearing these words, I am touched. But, husband, could you wipe off the lip mark imbued with Immortal Spirit Qi on your neck before saying such moving words?"
"Furthermore, if husband had no extraneous thoughts, how would Ningxi plan to have the imperial consort take me out to buy clothes and keep me away?"
"I... wait a minute, my dear, what kind of potion did you give me?" Wang Shouzhe was about to explain but suddenly noticed something amiss.
"Oh~ you’re talking about this~ I suddenly remembered a recipe from my previous life, something obtained after slaying a female cultivator known as the ’Red Dust Evil Immortal.’ That True Immortal Realm female cultivator was proficient in harvesting yang to replenish yin, extremely sinister and poisonous, claiming no less than eight to ten thousand male cultivators lives. The recipe is called [Endless Silk Until Death]."
"What kind of absurd name is that?"
Wang Shouzhe was horrified, an ominous premonition welled up within him.
"Husband can slowly experience it~" Liu Ruolan smiled warmly, like a gentle spring breeze, "There’s no need to worry, I’ve already brought along the Carry-on Cave Mansion."
Is that what I’m worried about?
Wang Shouzhe felt like crying but had no tears.
...
Sometime later.
Deep underground in the Wei Clan Mining Area.
In the originally empty formation, a black-robed old man was now sitting cross-legged, no one knew when he had appeared.
He looked quite old already, with sparse hair, pale complexion, his aura obscure and indescribably eerie.
Thick Blood Soul Qi lingered around his body, seeming to infuse vitality into his body, letting this aged physique revive with vigor.
Wave upon wave of True Immortal Realm pressure radiated from him as the center.
The overwhelming pressure turned the faces of the Elders and clan soldiers guarding the underground pale, daring only to stay far away at the edge of the cavern, not even approaching.
Evil Array Immortal!
Upon seeing this, Wei Qingyun halted in his steps, waves of coldness immediately surging in his heart.
Despite the Evil Array Immortal mentioning that the Blood Soul Jade could replenish the Divine Soul Power and revive his body, actually seeing him resurrected still made Wei Qingyun shiver.
One hundred thousand years, a whole one hundred thousand years, and the Evil Array Immortal was not truly dead!
At this moment, the Evil Array Immortal within the formation seemed to sense his approach too, suddenly opening his eyes, casting a cold glare towards Wei Qingyun.
"Senior’s Secret Technique is truly remarkable, able to preserve the physical body for a hundred thousand years without decay." Wei Qingyun swallowed, quickly flattering with care.
Back then, even without his physical body, the Evil Array Immortal could almost bring the Wei family to ruin, forcing them to make an accord with him. Now that the Evil Array Immortal’s physical body was unsealed, he was definitely a strong True Immortal Realm presence, inspiring even more reverence and caution in Wei Qingyun.
"Humph~ the Blood Soul Jades you provided are still lacking in quality, with just enough power for me to stretch my muscles a bit. If I had Blood Soul Jades refined from a Demonic King-level or Transcendent Void Realm expert, I could stay outside longer." Although still looking down upon those Blood Soul Jades, Evil Array Immortal did not say much more and instead asked, "How about the top-quality Spirit Stones I asked you to prepare?"
"I came explicitly for this matter." Wei Qingyun quickly replied, "All thirty-six top-quality Spirit Stones you requested have been gathered. When do you think we can activate the Void Transfer Array and enter the Ancient Battlefield?"
"As soon as the top-quality Spirit Stones are in place, the Void Transfer Array can be activated at any time. But has your Wei family prepared for the exploration of the Ancient Battlefield? Is the manpower ready?" Evil Array Immortal casually cast a glance toward the entrance of the cavern, evidently noticing the additional people there, with a slightly disdainful tone, "Just these few people outside?"
