Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

Shen Sheng didn't enter the palace with Xu Ming.

Sheng Sheng's bloodline was truly too special.

The magic array set up in the palace was definitely no lower in grade than the Saint Land's forbidden area's sect-protecting array. Moreover, the palace was the dragon eye of the Wu Kingdom's mountains and rivers' fortune.

The vast majority of demons and monsters would be regarded as enemies.

Xu Ming was worried that Sheng Sheng would be directly annihilated by the palace's grand array as soon as she stepped into the palace.

When arriving at the palace, in the past, there would always be maids to conduct body searches and deposit storage bags, in order to prevent anyone from suddenly launching an assassination during an audience with the Emperor.

But this time, there was none.

Needless to say, this must have been deliberately instructed by Emperor Wu, in order to highlight a "100% trust in you" attitude! We are a monarch and subject without suspicion! Treating each other with sincerity!

It must be said.

This kind of behavior can indeed buy goodwill.

If it were those passionate youths, they would probably have wanted to "shed their heads and spill their blood for Emperor Wu, a scholar dies for his confidant."

But for Xu Ming, this effect was really just average.

Because Xu Ming didn't have the awareness of "selling himself to the imperial family."

Moreover, the feudal society's monarch-minister relationship was, in Xu Ming's view, an insignificant matter.

The palace maids brought Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan to the entrance of the Qingxin Hall.

Eunuch Wei was already waiting at the entrance of the Qingxin Hall.

"Oh, Princess, Minister Wenwu, this old servant has finally waited for you two."

Wei Xun hurriedly stepped forward to greet the two.

"Eunuch Wei."

Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan greeted him.

"Oh, oh, oh, you two don't need to be so polite, this old servant can't bear it."

Wei Xun stepped aside, dodging Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan's salute, "Please come in, the Emperor is already waiting."

"Okay."

Xu Ming and the two nodded. Wei Xun opened the door of the Qingxin Hall. After Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan walked in, Wei Xun personally closed it again.

"Your subject Xu Ming / Your daughter Yanhan, greets Your Majesty / Father."

Walking into the Qingxin Hall, looking at Emperor Wu sitting at the front, Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan shouted in unison.

"Hahahaha, no need for formalities, we are all family, why be so polite?"

Emperor Wu stood up and walked towards Xu Ming and his daughter, helping the two up.

Emperor Wu carefully looked at Xu Ming, like an elder proud of his junior, patted Xu Ming's shoulder: "Not bad, not bad, Xu Ming, you didn't disappoint me!

Originally, I thought your martial arts talent and literary talent were already very remarkable.

But you can actually cultivate, and even become a sword cultivator!

Not only that, you even survived the unprecedented ten lightning tribulations!

I am really happy for you!

Having a talent like you is truly the blessing of my Wu Kingdom! It is the blessing of our ancestors!"

"Your Majesty is too kind."

Xu Ming bowed and saluted, without a trace of arrogance, "Your subject's achievements today are all thanks to Your Majesty's cultivation, and the fact that your subject was able to obtain opportunities in the process of training and become a sword cultivator is entirely thanks to Your Majesty's dragon luck. If it weren't for Your Majesty, how could there be your subject?"

"..."

Listening to Xu Ming's saccharine words, Wu Yanhan's goosebumps rose.

Why haven't I seen you being so grateful to my imperial father usually?

You are too fake.

To be honest, Wu Yanhan now also feels that it is a pity that this guy doesn't enter the court to become an official.

Xu Ming's face is really thick, his behavior is really smooth, and his flattery is also very beautiful, he is indeed a good material for being an official.

"Hahahaha... Xu Ming, you are too modest, too modest."

Emperor Wu laughed loudly, seemingly very pleased with Xu Ming's flattery.

Emperor Wu took Xu Ming's hand with one hand and his daughter's hand with the other: "Come, come, don't all stand, quickly take your seats, it's already noon, you two must be hungry, let's have a meal together."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan exchanged pleasantries and sat on either side of Emperor Wu.

This table is just a normal square table, and the table is not big, just like a normal family eating together.

It can be seen that Emperor Wu did this deliberately, in order to show his kindness to himself, and the smaller the table, the more it can narrow the distance between the two sides.

Under Emperor Wu's invitation, Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan chewed slowly and ate the meal.

These dishes were all made from ingredients rich in spiritual power.

For example, this steamed sea bass is not an ordinary sea bass, but a sea dragon sea bass, which is very valuable.

Just this table of dishes alone probably costs thousands of taels of gold.

Moreover, even if you have thousands of taels of gold, you really can't necessarily buy this table of dishes.

The three ate and chatted.

Basically, Emperor Wu asked questions, and then Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan answered.

The content of the questions was basically just some interesting anecdotes from Xu Ming's journey in the past year, and did not involve any important matters.

As for what kind of opportunity Xu Ming obtained, thus embarking on the path of cultivation, Emperor Wu did not ask.

After all, everyone has their own secrets. Xu Ming's opportunity is definitely not something that can be asked about too much.

This meal was actually very harmonious. Xu Ming felt that Emperor Wu simply wanted to cultivate a relationship with him.

In fact, Emperor Wu also wanted to reward Xu Ming.

But Xu Ming only survived the lightning tribulation and did not perform any meritorious service, so Emperor Wu thought about it and decided to let it go for now.

The Rootless Secret Realm is coming up soon, and after Xu Ming comes out, he will reward Xu Ming.

After lunch, Emperor Wu pulled Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan to hunt.

Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan did not refuse.

"Let the three of us compete, without using any other means, just relying on the bows and arrows in our hands, to see who hits the most prey, how about it?"

Emperor Wu proposed.

Now that Emperor Wu has proposed this, how can Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan refuse?

This is like a leader asking you if you want to go to KTV together at night. Can you say your throat hurts? If the leader gives you a cigarette, can you say "I'm coughing if it's not a Huazi"?

So, Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan each rode their horses and went hunting with ordinary bows and arrows.

And just as Xu Ming and Wu Yanhan left, Emperor Wu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he shouted to the empty surroundings: "Someone come."

In the next instant, more than a dozen veiled people surrounded Emperor Wu.

"Do as I instructed you before."

Emperor Wu said to the crowd. "There must be no problems!"

"Yes!"

Everyone nodded, and disappeared in front of Emperor Wu in an instant.

"My daughter is in the top ten of the Beauty Ranking, and she also has the Martial God Body, but she still has to use this method."

As he spoke, Emperor Wu stared ahead and couldn't help but sigh.

"Xu Ming, this kid, is really unaware of his good fortune..."
