Chen Mo walked out of the imperial palace gates, recalling the recent events, and felt a slight chill on his back.
The Empress not only has thin skin but also a small mind, and she is particularly concerned about his relationship with Lin Jingzhu. If they had been blocked in the bathhouse earlier, who knows what kind of trouble might have ensued!
"Just dealing with the Empress and the Empress is already headache-inducing enough, and with Lin Catcher added into the mix, the real trouble is probably still ahead..."
Chen Mo shook his head helplessly.
No one else is to bla for this, he can only bla himself.
Why did he have to fancy both the Big Grapefruit and the Little Grapefruit?
As more and more girls gathered around him, the relationships beca increasingly complex and tangled, like a spider web tightly binding him. If this continues, he might really end up under the chopping block...
"I just wanted to give the heroines a ho, what have I done wrong?"
Chen Slag confidently comforted himself.
The root of the problem lay in the Empress and the Empress; as long as he could handle these two, the other issues would naturally be resolved.
"The current situation is still manageable, so let’s just let it be for now."
"If worst cos to worst, I could tie up the Empress first, then get the Empress drunk, and lock them both in a room... cough cough, this thod could work, but it would likely result in a tragic end afterward."
Chen Mo rode on the Crimson Steed, lost in his thoughts, heading towards the Governnt’s direction.
Upon returning to the Sky Scale Guard training ground, just as he walked through the main door, a black shadow lunged at him.
On reflex, he reached out to catch it, feeling the smooth and soft touch of fur.
Focusing his vision, it was surprisingly a cat with glossy black fur.
"Silly cat?"
"ow~"
Those heterochromatic eyes looked at him pitifully.
Perhaps due to the good food recently, it had grown noticeably heavier than before.
"Mr. Chen."
At this ti, Li Yuan ran over.
Seeing the black cat in Chen Mo’s hands, Li Yuan sighed in relief and said, "I just returned from the Imperial College and found that Little Black was missing, I searched all over the Governnt..."
"ow~"
Little Black blinked its eyes, as if complaining that Chen Mo hadn’t co to keep it company during this period...
"Get lost, don’t bother ."
Chen Mo casually tossed Little Black away.
It elegantly stretched its body in the air, lightly tapped the wall, then turned and jumped back, landing steadily on Chen Mo’s shoulder, rubbing affectionately against his neck.
It seed to think that Chen Mo was playing with it.
"..."
Chen Mo felt a bit helpless, so he let it be.
He and Li Yuan walked towards the Governnt, asking, "Are all those sect disciples arranged properly?"
Li Yuan replied, "The regulations have been signed off, and after witnessing Mr. Chen’s Sword Technique, they are quite proactive in accumulating contribution and have already started patrolling the city on their own initiative."
Chen Mo nodded.
One must say, the court’s move was indeed brilliant.
Sect disciples, who used to be unstable factors due to their martial prowess, would require significant manpower to restrain.
Now, under the title of ’patrollers,’ they have instead beco an aid to the governnt officers, actively maintaining the city’s security.
However, this is just the beginning.
Once the "Jianghu Talent List" is announced, it will undoubtedly cause another wave.
As core disciples of major sects, these individuals might not lack cultivation resources, but they have an intense desire for reputation—who doesn’t enter the Jianghu to make a na for themselves?
Especially with the phrase "True chivalry lies in serving the nation and the people" spreading around, this is not a court lackey, but a true knight’s na!
Moreover, Chen Mo, the "Qingyun Leaderboard," personally guiding them is an imnse attraction for them!
The two walked into the Governnt.
Chen Mo sat on a public chair, fiddling with a cyan square seal in his hand.
The material resembled jade, yet had a tallic icy touch, with intricate patterns engraved on the surface, and a substantive blue glow flowing through the grooves.
Li Yuan stood by, brewing tea, and curiously asked, "Mr. Chen, what is this?"
"Azure Darkness Seal, the Sect Treasure of the Moon Brilliance Sect, said to have the capability to infer all techniques." Chen Mo answered.
"Infer all techniques?" Li Yuan blinked, "That sounds impressive."
"Why not... have a try?"
Chen Mo weighed it in his hand.
Since he planned to use this as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Ji Lianxing, he must first understand its true capabilities.
He took out the Jade Scroll inscribed with the "Green Jade Scripture" from the Suru Bag, hesitated for a mont, and then used the last upgrade opportunity of the Creation Jade Plate, elevating the "Green Jade Scripture" from entry level to mastery.
As an ocean of information flooded into his Spirit Platform, a faint blue mist rose in the Purple Mansion.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the blue mist was composed of countless minuscule characters, each imbued with profound truths of the Dao.
The blue mist swirled up with his thoughts, pouring into the Golden Body Miniature.
At the center of the Golden Body’s forehead, a faint shadow of an ancient book appeared.
"Jade Reflected Sky Light, Qi Penetrates the Spirit Platform, Green Essence Condensing Marrow, Circulation of ridians..."
"No wonder the Gu God Sect is so obsessed with this cultivation technique. Besides various mysterious techniques, it can also reshape one’s root bone, enhance Dao affinity, and when cultivated to mastery, it’s said to be akin to rebirth."
Chen Mo felt a surge of enlightennt.
Many disciples of the Gu Body Sect feed Gu Poison Worms with their own flesh and blood, and in extre cases, they even use the worms to replace their own ridians and organs.
Although this can greatly boost strength in the short term, the cost is a lowered cultivation cap, as the body’s ridians get damaged, preventing the sensing of Primordial Qi; they can only rely on the Gu Worms, making it as hard as reaching the heavens to enter the realm of a Grandmaster.
