Chapter 862: Chapter 684: Changsheng Touches the Tiger’s Tail
Damn, the Protectors of the Four Kingdoms, they are all peerless experts!
It’s true that Gu Changsheng received the State Docunt from Liaodong of the Northern Country, but this feeling, it’s nervousness and curiosity!
She’s damn afraid of being suddenly knocked out!
Don’t doubt it, if soone who’s entered the Transformative Realm decides to knock her out, even soone as fierce as Gu Changsheng may not avoid it!
What a painful realization!
But it’s true!
With Gu Changsheng’s question, everyone’s attention turned to Dowager Empress Xiao and the empty space behind her.
As if searching to see if any hidden Transformative Realm spirit had drawn its sword again.
Even Borjigin Nian widened his eyes, carefully observing, trying to find a trace of fluctuation.
But, to everyone’s disappointnt, there was none!
Not a single bit!
“Could it be, they are protecting the descendants of the Liaodong Jin Family?” Gu Changsheng looked at the calm Dowager Empress Xiao, a bit puzzled between her eyebrows.
“It’s possible.” Zhou Mu nodded, agreeing with her guess.
The city gate remained tightly shut, seemingly the people escorting Emperor Zhoulin to the gate hadn’t arrived, so everyone wasn’t in a hurry.
Gu Changsheng’s eyes lit up, eagerly inspecting around Dowager Empress Xiao, she couldn’t believe that Dowager Empress Xiao dared to hand over the State Docunt without any experts protecting her?
“Dowager Empress Xiao, I’ve received the State Docunt and Jade Seal, so to speak, we’re like family now, no need for formalities. Why keep the experts of your Northern Country’s Imperial Family hidden so deep? Are you worried I might go back on my word? Are you still holding back?” Gu Changsheng blinked her big eyes, asking enthusiastically.
Damn, she’s curious!
She’s really curious!
Experts aren’t easy to et, they are like ancient relics, each encounter is precious, at least get familiar with the face, in case in the future I get knocked out unknowingly, right?
Everyone’s gaze was also intensely focused on Dowager Empress Xiao, infinitely curious.
Dowager Empress Xiao clearly underestimated Gu Changsheng’s persistence. Being questioned like this, if she didn’t respond, it would make her Northern Country seem insincere in surrendering.
“Ah, why is the Southern Emperor so playful?” Dowager Empress Xiao sighed and spoke.
“It’s not about being playful, I just want to et the experts. If one day I did sothing against your Northern Country, and got knocked out, I’d at least know who did it, right?” Gu Changsheng blinked, replying quite matter-of-factly.
Everyone had a line of black speechless lines on their forehead, wasn’t this too straightforward?
Yet still so candid… It’s quite speechless!
Even Dowager Empress Xiao was speechless.
She thought, to be in the high position of Southern Emperor, one should have supre majesty and act with the deanor of a ruler, but evidently, this Southern Emperor was not like that. Just after accepting the State Docunt, already worried about possibly wronging the Northern Country…
This…
This, what should she, the one offering the State Docunt, say?
The other side even prepared herself for being knocked out, what more could she say?
“No? I can’t find it.” Borjigin Nian rubbed her nose, looking towards Gu Changsheng for help, not finding any spiritual power fluctuation similar to her clan grandfather’s around Dowager Empress Xiao.
“Don’t look at , I didn’t find anything either.” Gu Changsheng was also a little embarrassed.
“None.” Zhou Mu’s reply was straightforward and direct, he was also curious where the Northern Country’s trump card was hidden.
Dowager Empress Xiao just stood there, very uncomfortable being stared at by a group of young prodigies, having been in high position for sixty years, frankly, no one ever stared at her so openly like this!
This feeling, was very uncomfortable, Dowager Empress Xiao felt that her head of white hair was almost being stared upright by those lines of sight!
Unable to bear it any longer, Dowager Empress Xiao finally couldn’t help but, with a stern, wrinkled old face, speak up, “What are you looking for? This?”
With that, Dowager Empress Xiao’s body shook!
As she shook, a phantom identical in appearance to her erged at her side, its white eyebrows stood upright, clearly in a bad mood.
“…” Gu Changsheng’s mouth imdiately ford an “O” shape.
Behind her, everyone’s jaws almost hit the ground.
This damn…
“Or are you looking for this?” Dowager Empress Xiao wasn’t done, her old body shook again.
Another phantom appeared on her other side with the shake!
The two phantoms on the left and right were exactly like Dowager Empress Xiao herself!
But blurry, not clearly visible!
“Maybe this one?” Dowager Empress Xiao kept shaking.
“Or this one?” Dowager Empress Xiao was still shaking.
In the blink of an eye, five or six phantoms stood around Dowager Empress Xiao, strong spiritual power fluctuations unabashedly emanated from these phantoms, making the hairs of those around stand on end.
Strong!
So powerful!
Unparalleled strength!
In that mont, everyone was shocked by Dowager Empress Xiao’s actions!
She’s defying the heavens!
It’s undeniable that being able to enter the Transformative Realm, to undergo a Spiritual Transform, is already defying the heavens!
Just as Gu Changsheng’s mouth and eyes were forming an “O” shape, Dowager Empress Xiao finally stopped trembling, and her hair, bristled from being stared at, finally returned to normal!
After a long while, no one spoke, and the surroundings were quiet.
Even Zhou Mu looked deep in thought.
“Phew…” Gu Changsheng let out a long breath, looking at Dowager Empress Xiao with a grin, and at those illusions by her side, “Thankfully! Thankfully, no one grabbed a wooden club, no worries about being knocked out!”
Everyone: “…”
Dowager Empress Xiao staggered, her first loss of composure, the illusions beside her blinked and rged into her body as she glared at Gu Changsheng with her aged eyes, truly wishing she had a club in hand to thump him!
Give him a good whack on the head!
At this point, everyone finally understood why Dowager Empress Xiao was able to rule Liaodong of the Northern Country for sixty years without her throne being challenged; because she is the Protector of the Liaodong Royal Family, an unparalleled expert!
This realization left people speechless!
The so-called hidden masters, aren’t they supposed to stay hidden? Who knew one like Dowager Empress Xiao would not only erge but thrive so well?
This was really unexpected!
Just as everyone was gasping in astonishnt, Gu Changsheng suddenly leaped off his horse, running over to Dowager Empress Xiao’s side, circling her twice, examining her intently.
Even being an exceptional master, Dowager Empress Xiao was a bit unnerved by Gu Changsheng’s scrutiny, and a bit dizzy from his circling. If not for her strong restraint, she really wanted to forget about her matronly disguise and slap Gu Changsheng right to the ground!
But, she held back.
Gu Changsheng finally stopped circling, looked up, and asked Borjigin Nian, “Nian, how old is your great-grandfather?”
“Huh?” Borjigin Nian was stunned by the sudden question, he touched his nose thoughtfully and replied, “I don’t know, but, he seems to be several generations older than my Imperial Father.”
Hearing this, Gu Changsheng imdiately started counting on his fingers, muttering while doing so, “The Protector of Northern Mongolia is several generations older than Nian’s Imperial Father, so he must be a good 100 to 200 years old. The Protector of Great Zhou, is the evildoer’s grandfather’s grandfather’s… grandfather… probably also very old…”
Then, Gu Changsheng figured it out, and Dowager Empress Xiao’s face darkened.
Because Gu Changsheng was turning to look at her, with an inscrutable gaze.
“Dowager Empress Xiao, I’ve heard you married the forr emperor of Liaodong and had sons and daughters, grandsons and granddaughters…” Gu Changsheng said to Dowager Empress Xiao, awkwardly.
Dowager Empress Xiao’s body shook, suddenly having a bad premonition.
Sure enough, Gu Changsheng shook his head, looked at her and spoke again, with a disapproving look, “Dowager Empress Xiao, being an old cow that eats young grass is not right…”
For a mont, everyone around was dumbfounded.
An old cow eating young grass? Dowager Empress Xiao?
The Protectors of Northern Mongolia and Great Zhou are both quite ancient, thus…
Dowager Empress Xiao she…
The way everyone looked at Dowager Empress Xiao suddenly beca very strange… this feeling was quite peculiar!
“You!” Being looked at like that by everyone, Dowager Empress Xiao finally beca angry, gathering spiritual power in her hand to form a club and swung it towards Gu Changsheng, though she kindly warned, “Watch out for the club!”
“Whoa! Did I hit the mark? Ashad to anger? You’re going to knock out?” Seeing this, Gu Changsheng held his head and bolted.
Geez, who wouldn’t run? Dowager Empress Xiao may look like a kind grandma, but she’s truly a legitimate master!
Before the city gate, chaos erupted, with over four hundred Dark Night Army soldiers gathered not far from the gate, their eyes following a dark red figure as it circled around them.
“Hey, you can’t hit ! You can’t hit !” Gu Changsheng dashed faster than a rabbit.
Dowager Empress Xiao pursued relentlessly.
After countless circles, when everyone started feeling dizzy, Dowager Empress Xiao finally got enraged, her body shook, a phantom appeared, also wielding a large club, blocking Gu Changsheng.
“Darn! A sneak attack!” Gu Changsheng held his head and dashed wildly, caught between a rock and a hard place, about to be knocked out if unlucky.
She jumped, ducked, moved, Gu Changsheng’s body, like a rabbit, deftly dodged the blockade from front and back…
Dowager Empress Xiao beca annoyed, shook again, another phantom erged…
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng widened his eyes, escaped more energetically, shouting as he did, “Oh no, murder! Silence! Help!”
Dowager Empress Xiao beca more urgent, Gu Changsheng’s agility exceeded her expectations, she couldn’t go hard on him, but she had to shut him up; another shake, and yet another phantom appeared…
“Watch the club!” Dowager Empress Xiao roared.
Gu Changsheng fled.
“…” Borjigin Nian watched the chaotic cat-and-mouse chase unfold in front of him, his mouth twitching, “Really… he doesn’t know that a tiger’s butt can’t be touched!”
When there’s nothing to do, why provoke Dowager Empress Xiao? And now, being chased into this state, seemingly about to get clobbered…
