After Favorability Is Maxed

However, he looked at He Qingmeng with a cold and judgmental gaze.

The woman shrank into Liu Yuan’s arms timidly and whispered, “I don’t know… I was told by those people from Bi Luo Mansion. They kidnapped me and brought me here. I didn’t know what they wanted to do, so I was brought here in a daze. They died later, and I almost died as well. Fortunately, Young Master Junxuan saved me.”

She raised her head and glanced at Liu Yuan, never forgetting to reveal a gentle gaze.

If Zhiying had a lemon in her hand, she would have crushed it.

He did not expect that the romantic little garden at the lowest level of the white jade palace would not leave any seeds for the Martial Emperor and his wife before they died.

However, it was actually not that strange. After all, a Martial Emperor’s physical body was at the level of a Saint. It probably had ‘reproductive isolation’ from ordinary mortals and even Immortal cultivators, right?

It was not that Liu Yuan was exaggerating. Immortal cultivators themselves, while constantly refining their essence into Qi, would also optimize their body structure bit by bit. It was impossible for high-level Immortal cultivators to mate with mortals and have children, because from a biological point of view, the two might not be the same species.

From the time cultivators lived in the wind and dew, and from the time they built their foundation, they had already drawn an insurmountable moat with mortals.

But now, the childless Martial Emperor suddenly had a descendant. One had to admit that it was indeed bizarre.

The Martial Emperor’s remnant soul was here, so his words must be true. His suspicion of He Qingmeng’s identity was also true. However, as He Qingmeng had said, she was captured by the people of Bi Luo Mansion, not by her own will.

Or, the people of Bi Luo Mansion had made a mistake.

Liu Yuan thought back to what was written in the letter, then he thought about the professionalism of Bi Luo Mansion. Most importantly, they were indeed the first to enter the Secret Realm. This proved that He Qingmeng was indeed a descendant of a Martial Emperor.

However, the Martial Emperor did not seem to be just confused when he asked this question at this time. He was actually a little suspicious. He could not possibly have an illegitimate child outside, could he?

No, actually, what if there really was such a thing?

Liu Yuan shot a glance at the three-headed heavenly demon that was following closely behind him, and the little fox’s frightened wailing could be heard in the wind, “Big Bad Guy… Sob…”

“Zhizhi, stop playing.” Zhizhi blinked and opened her mouth, letting go of the fox tail.

Tears welled up in Su Bi’s eyes, and she immediately retracted her tail, feeling wronged. Not only did she tuck her tail between her legs, but she also deliberately covered her pants.

She… She wasn’t scared to the point of peeing! No, no, she wasn’t!

It was only because she was scared, and she was bitten on her tail that this happened. She was not a bad child who would wet the bed… She was already 100 years old! She was very mature! She did not want the big bad guy to help her wipe it clean!

According to the average age of a fox, she was only a ten-year-old loli, at the age of bedwetting.

“Senior Martial Emperor, even if Miss Qingmeng’s identity is still suspicious, she was captured by Bi Luo Mansion. She doesn’t know anything about it. I think it’s more important to deal with the Heavenly Demon first.”

Liu Yuan was barely able to defend it.

After all, she was still in his arms, although he had rejected her.

Martial Emperor gave a half-smile. “You’re right… From this kid’s memory, you’re not a simple person. Your judgment is quite accurate.”

Before Liu Yuan could ask what it meant, Martial Emperor continued, “Go out from here and head north. That’s the only exit.”

Oh… He was talking about leaving the Secret Realm.

Liu Yuan actually wanted to ask if this was a permanent possession or a temporary replacement for his body. However, after thinking about it, it seemed like he was about to turn hostile.

In the Immortal cultivation world, possession was considered the style of the evil sects.

After all, Liu Yuan’s purpose for coming here was not honorable. He did not have any real friendship with Tang Yuanhua. If he still asked this question, it seemed like he wanted to stand up for Tang Yuanhua.

They claimed that they were going into a dungeon to snatch the Martial Emperor’s inheritance. However, this dungeon was the Martial Emperor’s Tomb, so it was equivalent to robbing the tomb. No one had actually asked the Martial Emperor if he had agreed to share his inheritance.

It was equivalent to a robbery.

If he really wanted to make a fuss, it would not be too much for a Martial Emperor to backstab them and kick them off the stage.

However, at this moment, in comparison, killing demons was indeed more important.

“That Heavenly Demon…”

“Don’t worry,”

Martial Emperor’s tone remained calm.

Liu Yuan thought to himself that this was probably the aura of a real Big Shot. Even if he was a remnant soul, even if a thousand years had passed, even if there should not be much power left, he was still calm and composed.

He was even so decisive in his escape.

Martial Emperor shouted, “Tianji!”

Then, with a loud bang, the entire Scripture Chamber began to move. The paths of the library changed one by one. Many huge wooden beams shot out from the side and blocked their path behind them in an instant. The white puppets from before also jumped out.

Boom boom boom!

The wooden beams linked to each other, one by one.

Swish!

The Three-headed Heavenly Demon suddenly changed direction, his wings flapping wildly, avoiding the end of being smashed into pieces by those wooden beams. With a ferocious expression, he waved his hand, summoning a few bird-type strange beasts from the ground to block those wooden beams for him.

But there were still puppets behind.

Agile, fast, flexible, and powerful, these figures did not even feel pain. They expressionlessly attacked the Heavenly Demon, the cold glint of the long swords in their hands suddenly appearing like a meat grinder.

“Roar–!”

The Three-headed Heavenly Demon raised his head and gave a long roar. The black demonic Qi in its hand wreaked havoc, condensing into a long halberd.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of the collision was loud and violent. The crisscrossing wooden beams had sealed off the entire exit, and the three-headed celestial demon was fighting a group of puppets. The demon would not be able to catch up in time.

Everyone was originally going to rush up violently, but Chuichui was already so excited that she was ready to flip the roof over. In the end, she only passed through a film-like feeling, a smooth transition, and arrived outside.

Whoosh!

The sun was still shining brightly on the island, and the familiar ruins of the White jade palace were under his feet.

Liu Yuan, who was on the dragon’s back, heaved a sigh of relief.

This Scripture Chamber was originally a killing machine.

Perhaps… The entire palace was a killing machine too.

Liu Yuan thought of the lotus pond garden on the first floor of the palace. The everlasting lamps inside were also a set of mechanisms.

“Lord Martial Emperor, d-do you still remember me?” Hong Luan suddenly whispered.
