Just as Lu Chuan was about to speak, Liu Anran made her choice, her voice resolute as she said, "Okay!"

immediately,

Liu Anran knelt down, cupped her hands in greeting, and said, "Master!"

"Get up, no need for formalities," Lu Chuan's voice rang out calmly.

As Liu Anran stood up, Lu Chuan waved his hand, and beams of divine light entered Liu Anran's body.

The method of the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique appeared in Liu Anran's mind, and at the same time, Lu Chuan's voice rang in her ears.

"Use Qi to guide the spirit, and the spirit to form an image. Every gesture and movement carries the power of a giant elephant. The human body is composed of 840 million particles. If its potential is awakened, every tiny particle will possess the power of a giant elephant. When all of them are awakened, they will be comparable to a divine elephant, capable of overturning rivers and seas, roaring down stars, plucking the moon and swallowing the sun, all in the blink of an eye."

"..."

At this moment,

Liu Anran's heart was in turmoil. Such a supreme technique, once cultivated to the great perfection, would make one invincible in the entire world. It would not be difficult to kill the lofty immortal sects and giants who had lived for countless epochs.

To think that such a supreme martial art existed in the world, Liu Anran was truly grateful for her choice.

Whatever price Lu Chuan wanted to pay was no longer important; as long as the Great Yu Dynasty remained safe, everything would be worthwhile.

Furthermore,

She had nothing to offer in return. With such a supreme cultivation technique and her master's cultivation level being more terrifying than any other powerful figure she had ever seen, she had no room to resist whatever the master wanted. There was absolutely no need for her to beat around the bush.

...

In a flash,

More than a month later

Liu Anran had just emerged from the secret room. With Lu Chuan's assistance, Liu Anran had undergone a complete transformation.

Early morning,

When Liu Anran appeared, she was immediately met with a barrage of criticism from the purists.

"The emperor has not held morning court for over a month, which violates the imperial family's ancestral precepts. How is an emperor any different from a tyrant!"

"The emperor is the emperor of the people of Great Yu. The burden on his shoulders is so heavy. It is a misfortune for the country if the emperor is so negligent!"

"The Emperor hereby issues an edict of self-reproach!"

"How can an emperor who has never cared about the people be worthy of the throne!"

"..."

Listening to the ministers' accusations, Liu Anran's eyes darkened as he looked down at the Prime Minister Qin Wuyi and Grand Commandant Shangguan Hong, who were at the head of the group of ministers. A murderous intent surged in his heart.

snort!

I am not what I used to be. You two old guys, just you wait!

Subsequently,

Liu Anran's voice rang out, sweeping away her previous weakness, "Enough! I was just delayed by something. The important matters of the court are handled by the Prime Minister and the Grand Commandant. Whether I attend the morning court or not makes no difference."

"I have no desire for the throne. If my ministers feel I am unworthy of the imperial position, then depose me."

He paused for a moment.

Before the ministers could say anything more, Liu Anran's voice rang out again, "Guards, convey my decree: I have no desire for the throne, and my abilities are insufficient. From this day forward, I abdicate in favor of Chancellor Qin!"

Upon hearing this,

The imperial court fell silent instantly, and the assembled officials were taken aback.

What's wrong with this little emperor today?! Why does he seem so sharp and ruthless, like he's about to reveal his true intentions?!

At this time,

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Qin hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, no! What virtue or ability do I possess? I am utterly unworthy of the responsibility for the country and its people. Please, Your Majesty, do not speak jokingly!"

Currently, he and Shangguan Hong are evenly matched in terms of power, and their cultivation levels are also at the same level. Neither of them is confident of defeating the other.

If he ascends the throne and declares himself emperor, Shangguan Hong will surely raise an army, and the outcome will be unpredictable.

Moreover, and most importantly, Shangguan Hong would then be able to shoulder the responsibility of purging the court of corrupt officials, at which point his advantages would be even less.

Is this young emperor trying to make them fight each other? After hiding for over a month, has he decided to stop tolerating it?

snort!

You have no choice but to endure it, whether you like it or not. The fate of the Great Yu Dynasty is not in the hands of a good-for-nothing.

“Since the Prime Minister has declined, why not let the Grand Commandant take charge?” Liu Anran turned to look at Shangguan Hong.

Both Qin Wuyi and Shangguan Hong were ambitious and cunning, and both declined Liu Anran's offer of abdication.

"well!"

"I am well aware of my own limitations and inability to govern the country. After much thought, I have determined that only my two beloved ministers are truly suitable. However... my two beloved ministers have repeatedly declined. I...!"

"That's enough!"

"Since you two ministers are unwilling, I will not force you. I will go into seclusion for a period of time and leave the important affairs of the court to you two. From today onwards, I will no longer attend court."

"The Chancellor and the Grand Commandant are both pillars and pillars of our Great Yu Dynasty. I entrust the empire to them with peace of mind!"

After a slight pause,

Liu Anran's voice continued, "That's settled then. From now on, important matters of the court will be entrusted to the Prime Minister and the Grand Commandant."

After saying that,

Without much hesitation or giving the officials a chance to speak, Liu Anran left directly.

The courtiers: ? ? ?

Qin Wuyi and Shangguan Hong: ⊙﹏⊙?

What's wrong with this little emperor?

Has she figured it out and completely given up? Is she doing this to beg for her life?

Um……!

It seems that this is the only possibility. As for the others... ha, he's just a piece of trash. What kind of trouble can he cause?

In this way, the young emperor was wise. When it came time to kill her, he gave her a quick death and left her with a whole corpse, so that their relationship as ruler and subject would not have been in vain. Of course... if she wanted to be his plaything, it would be fine to allow her to live.

Thinking this through, Qin and Shangguan Hong exchanged glances, both wearing smiles.
