"Face?"
"Yes, it's just the face."
Among the chaotic and noisy crowd.
Ji Huang and Tantai Saint each took a sip of water from their cups.
The former thinks it is absurd and unreasonable; the latter thinks it should be possible.
"Hehehe..."
Ji Huang couldn't help but sneered several times and said, "Your Majesty is not such a superficial person."
How could the Temple Empress, who transcends the world, inherits the will of a demigod and is above all people, be such a superficial person who only cares about her appearance
Ji Huangwan would not believe Tantai Saint's explanation. He even felt that she was here to fool him.
Saint Tantai said: "But you have to admit that this is indeed a possibility."
Ji Huang said coldly: "What are the other possibilities?"
The Tantai Saint gently shook the tea cup, but the cup was filled with wine, and the smell of wine was diffused.
She held her chin in her hand, thought for a while, and then said: "For Your Majesty, the temple is her hard work and destination, and it is also her responsibility."
"At least, the Holy Son never had any bad thoughts towards the temple from beginning to end... He didn't even go to the temple's treasure house. What about you?"
There was a questioning tone in these words.
She also discovered Ji Huang's ulterior motives.
The other party's real intention was not just to donate the family's materials for free.
His original intention was to buy people's hearts, buy off the four temples, and attempt to isolate the Zhongzhou Temple.
It's just that the Temple family has a great cause, and it's hard to win over people's hearts in a short time.
Ji Huang couldn't help but laugh, without concealing it, and said: "The temple is about to fall, and those restricted by those rules and regulations are actually the temple's own people."
"Women are not suitable as leaders. They are too benevolent and pay too much attention to mortals and weak cultivators. Whether it is the previous empress or this one, the result has already been determined."
Saintess Tantai looked at him coldly and said: "Ji Huang, you'd better restrain yourself. Otherwise... I have the right to behead you right here."
Ji Huang didn't have any fear and said calmly:
"I once met a young man who was young and energetic and shared the same view as me."
"He made a bet with me that he will raise his sword against the temple."
"It's a pity that he was too close to death after all, and was killed by His Majesty early in the Sea of Tranquility."
"And now, Your Highness the Saint, I think you are the most suitable."
The Tantai Saint frowned and put down her tea cup.
Immediately, there was a sound breaking through the air.
call out!
The sharp sword flashing with cold light was already placed on Ji Huang's neck.
The latter was slightly startled, but his expression was calm, and he sighed and shook his head.
"Your Highness the Saint, I spoke to you with a sincere heart. Why did you take action?"
Ji Huang slowly raised his hand and pinched his sword finger.
A flash of fire appeared on his fingers, and he gently touched the sword on his neck.
The weak fire quickly ate away at the sharp sword.
Tantai Saint realized something was wrong, released the hilt of her sword, and quickly retreated.
Her earth-level high-grade spiritual sword was burned into powder in just one breath.
"With a sincere heart, you invite me to rebel with you, right?"
Saintess Tantai said coldly: "The reason why the Holy Son is better than you lies in this - the rules and regulations customized by His Majesty also restrict the Holy Son, but he has never had any objections and has even always supported him, unlike you..."
Ji Huang frowned and said in a deep voice: "I haven't finished speaking yet, please sit down."
"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Saint. It was my rudeness just now. As an apology—"
He waved his hand, and cracks spread in the space.
Immediately a sharp sword flew out of it.
The sword was extremely sharp, and its blade was as transparent as crystal. It seemed invisible, but it reflected a faint cold light.
The moment she saw the sword, Saintess Tantai was filled with astonishment.
Ji Huang said: "This is the Sword of Tantai."
"How about it? Sit down."
Saint Tantai hesitated for a while, then slowly sat down.
She couldn't help but ask: "How did you find it?"
Ji Huang responded: "After the Tantai clan was destroyed, this sword was secretly taken away by the evil clan hiding in the world."
"I worked hard to find it."
"This sword is in line with the skills you practice. You can also use this sword as an opportunity to revive the Tantai clan."
"I spent a lot of effort to find it. This is just to prove... my sincerity."
Saintess Tantai frowned, her face hidden under the veil full of hesitation.
That sword is very important to her, and on her shoulders is the important task of reviving the family of the past.
It's just that Her Majesty the Empress's kindness to her is not as heavy as the responsibility of reviving the family.
Saintess Tantai did not take the sword and said coldly: "What do you want me to do?"
Ji Huang waved his hand and said: "Nothing is needed. I only need to win over friends who are on the same front. That is enough. The enemy of my enemy is a friend, isn't it?"
"But the truth is, there is still something that needs to be done."
His words were inconsistent.
Saintess Tantai frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter?"
Ji Huang said calmly: "Your Majesty is currently weak."
"In the competition in seven days, I will perform a heroic act of 'hero saving beauty'. At the same time, I will take advantage of the chaos to get rid of the holy son named Ye An."
"It's just that the little maid beside Her Majesty the Empress is difficult to deal with."
"So... you need to delay."
"A hero saves a beauty? That's vulgar." Saintess Tantai said with a cold expression, "Didn't you also give her a lot of money and treasures? What's wrong, she doesn't listen to you?"
Ji Huang smiled slightly and said: "Forgive me for not wanting to explain this kind of thing clearly, but that little maid is very smart..."
"Anyway, what's your choice?"
"Should I choose this sword of Tantai to revive the family; or would I rather continue to be the current empress's dog, working hard without complaint?"
"Think about it seriously."
Unexpectedly, Saintess Tantai was not angry this time.
Instead, he fell into deep thought.
…
…
Qi Xi had a headache.
She has rarely studied the meaning of jewelry and necklaces.
It wasn't until Ye An reminded her that she realized that this was a couple's necklace.
"Please help me think about how to answer her?"
Qi Xi rubbed his forehead and felt a headache.
When she saw the mountain-high pile of memorials, her vision went dark and she almost fainted.
Ye An took out the potted plant with the Jianmu tree and gently touched the green bud.
"I don't have much experience in this. Frankly speaking, Your Majesty, I didn't expect that you could bend the interests of a saint and find me a love rival out of thin air... It's a bit suspenseful."
Qi Xi glanced slightly, looked at him coldly, and snorted: "What's wrong, are you still jealous? Are you jealous of women?"
Ye An shook his head and said, "No. I just feel that the plot that was supposed to appear in the drama actually happened in reality, which is illogical."
Qi Xi held his chin in his hand and smiled softly, "Are you still jealous?"
"Come here, I have some sugar, sweet."
She peeled off a piece of candy and held it gently with her slender fingers.
Ye An stepped forward in response and was about to reach out to take it, but Qi Xi took the candy and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Is it sweet?"
Qi Xi's golden eyes glowed with color as he chuckled softly.
Ye An wanted to say something - Your Majesty, have you washed your hands
But obviously that would ruin the atmosphere, and Qi Xi's blood pupils would soon appear.
So he cut off the sentence.
"good."
he said.
Qixi: "...Is it okay?"
When Ye An was about to say something more to tease her, he suddenly fell into a daze.
Several lines of text appeared in front of me, and the task system that had been silent for a long time finally reminded me again.
