Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

"Your Majesty, this is the oral account of Zhu Cici, daughter of the Marquis of Yunyi of Qi, and her maid, Xiaoye."

The second day after the Xuanwu Street assassination attempt, in the Imperial Study, Wei Xun handed over a piece of white paper filled with words.

The Martial Emperor unfolded it and began to read.

As he read, the Martial Emperor's eyes filled with surprise.

"This Xu Ming... truly gives朕 another surprise!" The Martial Emperor exhaled deeply.

According to Zhu Cici and her maid's description.

When they were in the barrier, the three dead dogs raised by that Huodou, two restrained the maid, and the other bit at Zhu Cici.

Just when Zhu Cici was sure to die, Xu Ming beat one to death with wild punches.

Afterwards, Xu Ming, relying on his weakened state, beat another one to death.

Only then was the situation resolved.

Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

If Zhu Cici had died, Xu Ming certainly wouldn't have survived either.

The Wu Kingdom would not only have lost a poetic talent, but Zhu Cici's death would have been even more troublesome.

Although it was said to be the work of the Southern Border Demon Kingdom, the person died in the Wu Kingdom after all, and it was a literary genius that was rare to see in a thousand years. If the Qi Kingdom wasn't given an explanation, it definitely wouldn't be acceptable.

Perhaps there would even be conspiracy theories saying that the Wu Kingdom deliberately colluded with the Myriad Manifestations Demon Kingdom of the Southern Border in order to kill Zhu Cici.

Then the Wu Kingdom would be even more unable to clear its name.

In short, this time Xu Ming has made even greater achievements than at the banquet.

"How should he be rewarded?"

The Martial Emperor rubbed his eyes.

He was naturally very happy that his Wu Kingdom could produce such a talented person who was both civil and martial.

However, because of Xu Ming's status, this achievement was not easy to reward.

"Forget it, forget it..." The Martial Emperor gave up thinking and said to himself, "Why am I struggling with this problem? Xu Ming's performance will definitely be known by those guys, wouldn't that be another powerful excuse for their reform faction?"

"Wei Xun."

"This servant is here." Wei Xun quickly knelt down.

"Xu Ming fainted because of exhaustion, right?" the Martial Emperor asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wei Xun nodded, "I heard from the Xu residence that a doctor has already been called and he is fine. He should have woken up this morning."

"Hmm." The Martial Emperor nodded, "Isn't Xu Ming practicing martial arts? Have someone bring some medicinal herbs for body tempering over."

"Yes." Wei Xun quickly retreated.

"Xu Ming..."

In the Imperial Study, only the Martial Emperor was alone, looking at the name on the white paper, the Martial Emperor's eyes were very complicated.

"If朕 could have such a son, how could those guys in the court keep bothering朕?" The Martial Emperor, who only had a daughter, sighed.

"Wait..." Suddenly, an idea popped into the Martial Emperor's mind, "What if Xu Ming becomes the consort of Hanhan..."

"No, no..." The Martial Emperor shook his head and quickly dismissed the idea, "Too hasty, it's still too hasty. At least not yet..."

Inside the Xiaochun Courtyard of the Xu Residence.

Xu Ming had already woken up in the morning.

When Xu Ming woke up, there was a large group of people around the bed.

Including the old gentleman Fang Jingchun from the Qi Kingdom's envoy group, Zhu Cici's mother, Zhu Cici, and the maid Xiaoye.

Old Mr. Fang and Madam Zhu kept expressing their gratitude to Xu Ming, saying that the Qi Kingdom would definitely remember this kindness.

These were their sincere words.

However, Madam Zhu was thanking him from a mother's point of view, while Old Mr. Fang was standing from the Qi Kingdom's point of view.

The Qi Kingdom has only produced such a natural literary genius in a thousand years!

If anything were to happen to her, how would they explain it to the Emperor after returning? How would they explain it to the people of the Qi Kingdom?

This kindness was really too great.

On the Xu Residence's side.

The Xu Residence's old lady and Xu Ming's cheap old man also came.

The old lady and Xu Zheng both praised Xu Ming a lot.

However, Xu Ming only smiled politely on the surface, and mentally regarded their praise as wind passing by his ears.

Xu Ming really didn't have any good feelings for this old lady and his cheap old man.

Madam Qin and Madam Wang also came, needless to say.

In any case, since birth, this was the first time Xu Ming felt that he was being valued so enthusiastically, which made Xu Ming a little unaccustomed to it.

Then, not long after, some people from the palace came again, and the Martial Emperor sent some medicinal herbs for body tempering.

This was very useful for Xu Ming.

Previously, Xu Ming was still thinking about asking Madam Wang to get some body tempering materials for him.

As a result, these things sent by the Martial Emperor were basically enough.

Because doctors can see a martial artist's realm based on the flow of true energy in the human body.

Therefore, after Xu Ming was diagnosed by the doctor, he naturally couldn't hide it.

After learning that Xu Ming was a Quicksilver Realm cultivator, everyone except Madam Wang looked at Xu Ming in disbelief.

Quicksilver Realm at the age of eight.

Although he wasn't a top genius, he was definitely considered to have extraordinary talent.

Compared to the surprise of others, Madam Wang put her hands on her waist, raised her neck, and was very proud in her heart.

Madam Wang couldn't be clearer about Xu Ming's realm, after all, Xu Ming would often ask Madam Wang for guidance.

For Madam Wang, Xu Ming was considered a small half-disciple.

Her disciple was now so promising, so she also felt a little proud.

Fortunately, unless they were medical cultivators, they couldn't diagnose a Qi Refiner's realm.

If they knew that Xu Ming was in the fourth realm of Qi Refining, who knows what they would think.

And Xiaoye, who was standing aside, had an even more complicated expression, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.

Xu Ming's performance when he saved Miss at that time was definitely not something that a simple Quicksilver Realm could do.

If Xu Ming wasn't a human, Xiaoye would have suspected that Xu Ming was a cub of one of the ancient ten fierce beasts.

Because Xu Ming was still a little weak, he needed a quiet resting environment.

So, under the doctor's urging, everyone left one after another, leaving only Chen Suya to take care of her son.

Xu Ming was indeed very sleepy and fell asleep quickly.

The side effects of that blood qi berserk transformation were really great...

Madam Zhu and her daughter returned to the Sifang Pavilion.

Madam Zhu was writing a letter in the room, telling her husband what happened yesterday, while Xiaoye was standing in front of Madam Zhu.

"Xiaoye, what's wrong? Why do you look so absent-minded? I've said it, yesterday's matter is not your fault," Madam Zhu said to the maid.

"Madam... This servant has something I want to tell you..." Xiaoye bowed.

Madam Zhu: "What is it?"

Xiaoye organized her words: "Yesterday, the people of the Wu Kingdom came to ask this servant what happened in detail. This servant deliberately lowered the strength of those three dogs, only saying that Xu Ming killed those two dogs in a hand-to-hand fight.

But Xu Ming's strength is definitely far beyond the ordinary Quicksilver Realm. This servant also saw him use the Fireball Technique, and his cultivation is at least in the Mind Illumination Realm."

Madam Zhu frowned slightly: "What do you want to say?"

Xiaoye bowed: "Xu Ming is both civil and martial, and his achievements are limitless. The Qi Kingdom must strive to win him over."
