Chapter 402 Zhao Hao's Ambition

Zhao Hao was indeed very envious of Lin Yun, so envious that he wanted to eat Lin Yun right away.

“This person actually has golden luck, which is even better than the dragon vein. It is unbelievable that there are such creatures in the world!”

It was because what he saw was too shocking that Zhao Hao, as an emperor who had long been accustomed to not showing his emotions, showed his greed.

This is really greedy.

Unfortunately, his thoughts were misunderstood by Lin Yun, who thought that he was too handsome and the emperor wanted to fence with him.

Zhao Hao did not act rashly. From the luck that Lin Yun possessed, he could tell that Lin Yun could not be an ordinary eunuch. However, he remained calm and said, "Yes, how about being my companion in the future?"

Lin Yun felt a chill on his back, but in order to seize the things from the emperor, Lin Yun had to respond: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Back off first!"

Zhao Hao ordered Lin Yun to leave. At this time, the look in his eyes when he looked at Concubine Shu was no longer as eager as before.

Originally, he was planning to use Concubine Shu to set a trap for Zhao Lingyu. Among all the royal family members, Zhao Lingyu was the only one with the strongest luck. Zhao Hao had long been eyeing Zhao Lingyu, and now was the perfect opportunity to devour his luck.

Otherwise, why would he come to see Concubine Shu? The woman would only affect the speed at which he absorbed luck.

But after meeting Lin Yun today, he suddenly felt that Zhao Lingyu was not attractive anymore.

Of course, after so much preparation, you still have to eat the meat, just as an appetizer before the main meal.

Originally, Zhao Lingyu was the main course, but with Lin Yun, Zhao Lingyu was just an appetizer.

"Speaking of which, how is Lingyu doing recently?"

When Zhao Hao asked about Zhao Lingyu's situation, Concubine Shu was also impatient for a while, but as a concubine, she couldn't lose her own temperament. She didn't know much about Zhao Lingyu's recent situation, so she could only say: "I don't know where this child went crazy again. It really makes me worry."

Concubine Shu's words were full of doting on Zhao Lingyu. Although she was complaining about her, she portrayed the image of a loving mother very well.

Lin Yun observed secretly and couldn't help but sigh that compared to Concubine Shu, Zhao Lingyu was still too young.

This is the realm!

She is worthy of being a royal concubine in the harem.

Of course, Lin Yun didn't like this kind of pretentious person. Even though she was good-looking and had the charm of a mature woman, Lin Yun would not see her the same way he saw Zhao Lingyu.

Zhao Lingyu’s little tricks are a little cute, but Concubine Shu’s maturity and wisdom make Lin Yun feel contemptuous.

Your daughter is about to be married off as a tool for marriage alliance, and you still say that you don't know where she went. You are such an incompetent mother.

No wonder Zhao Lingyu wanted to rebel without any hesitation. Perhaps there was no one in this royal family worthy of her stay.

Including Zhao Hao, who seemed to care about Zhao Lingyu, Lin Yun also vaguely felt a sense of malice just now.

"It just so happens that I haven't seen Lingyu for a long time. Why not summon her to the palace so that you and your daughter can have a heart-to-heart talk."

Zhao Hao had other intentions in mind and said these words in a negotiating tone, but in fact there was no room for negotiation.

Imperial Concubine Shu had been thirsting for a long time, but Zhao Hao just didn't get to the point and brought up Zhao Lingyu again. Imperial Concubine Shu was very dissatisfied, but she could only smile and say, "It's so late, there's no need to bother, right?"

"It's okay, the palace is still under lockdown! Someone, go and call Lingyu back to the palace and tell her that her mother misses her."

Lin Yun stood silently in the corner, watching this palace drama.

The emperor clearly knew about Zhao Lingyu's situation a long time ago, but he insisted on asking Concubine Shu.

If he wanted to see Zhao Lingyu, he could do so under his own name, so why did he have to use the name of Concubine Shu?

Even Lin Yun, who was the best at making bold guesses based on details, didn't know how to guess at this moment.

"Who cares? When we find the opportunity, we'll just do it!"

After the eunuch who brought the message left, Zhao Hao and Concubine Shu chatted for a while about state affairs and also mentioned the Shenxiao Sect.

"Your Majesty, the strong man from the Shenxiao Sect is so arrogant, I'm afraid he won't be quiet these two days!"

"Don't worry, my beloved concubine. I have already mastered my magical power today. If Lin Yu and Fang Yu from the Shenxiao Sect dare to come, I will lock them up in the deep palace."

Concubine Shu refused and said, "Your Majesty, have you been thinking about them for a long time?"

Zhao Hao said arrogantly: "Everything in this world belongs to me. How dare two women disobey my orders? They will only end up as slaves in the future."

When Lin Yun heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not reveal any murderous intent.

You are very brave. Wait until my Xiaoqing's cooling time is over. It will be over if I kill you or not.

You are just an emperor, look at what you can do!

"Xiao Linzi."

Zhao Hao suddenly called Lin Yun, and Lin Yun quickly responded, then Zhao Hao asked, "Where are you from? How did you get into the palace?"

This is to interrogate Lin Yun's background. When Lin Yun lied to Concubine Shu before, he had already prepared a script in mind, which came in handy now.

"I am originally from Haizhou. Some time ago, Haizhou was hit by a flood and I was separated from my family. I was also kidnapped by bandits and was taken to the palace."

His identity and origin were unclear. Fortunately, Zhao Hao did not ask about Lin Yun's experience in the palace, who castrated him, and which eunuch he was assigned to work for, otherwise Lin Yun would not be able to tell.

Zhao Hao was immediately indignant when he heard this: "I thought the world was peaceful, but I didn't expect there would be a strong man who would do such a thing. Xiao Linzi, how about I help you get revenge?"

Lin Yun: “…”

There is something wrong with this emperor!

Being so loyal must be a trap.

Lin Yun instinctively realized that something was wrong. There were many powerful people in the world, and the world had never been peaceful. Moreover, he was the emperor. Why would he ask a eunuch what he wanted to do?

There must be something fishy going on here!

Lin Yun, who was steady, immediately replied, "I dare not trouble the emperor. Besides, the strong man may have had no choice but to sell people. I don't blame him."

Lin Yun exuded the aura of the Virgin Mary. Zhao Hao couldn't help but feel annoyed. He had finally found an opportunity, but he didn't expect Lin Yun to be so pedantic. He missed such a good opportunity.

Lin Yun's instinctive reaction did help him.

Zhao Hao practiced a strange and mysterious magic skill, which was called the Heaven-Swallowing Record. When one reaches the highest level of this skill, he could even swallow the sky.

This Heaven-Swallowing Record does not swallow spiritual energy, but luck.

Everyone has luck, but everyone’s luck is different.

Zhao Hao practiced the Heaven-Swallowing Record and also mastered the method of seeing other people's fortunes.

Luck has several colors, the worst is black. When this color appears, death is basically not far away.

Many strange people in the folk are also good at the art of observing luck. For example, fortune tellers can see that if a person’s forehead is black, it actually means that his luck has turned bad.

The qi of a normal person is white. If it moves in the direction of good luck, it will turn red, and if it moves in the direction of bad luck, it will turn black.

People with amazing luck will usually become very rich and powerful, and thus be filled with purple energy. This means they are extremely famous.

When Zhao Hao was practicing the Heaven-Swallowing Record, the person he met who became extremely famous was Zhao Lingyu.

However, the most powerful fortune he had ever seen was the dragon vein.

Red with gold, extremely dazzling.

I thought that the red-gold color was the pinnacle of luck in the world. After all, the dragon veins represent the luck of the human race. The human race is such a large race, but it can overwhelm the northern grasslands and challenge the southern monster race. This shows how powerful the human race in the Central Plains is.

Who else in the world can rival the dragon vein that gathers the good fortune of the human race?

As a result, Lin Yun showed up with a golden legend, which almost blinded Zhao Hao's eyes.

Zhao Hao couldn't forcefully take action against such a person with amazing luck. It was not difficult to kill Lin Yun, but it was not easy to take away Lin Yun's luck. So, he set a trap.

The most practical trick in the Heaven Swallowing Record. When someone responds to one's promise, a bridge is built between them. With this bridge as a bond, Zhao Hao can steal the other person's luck. When the other person's luck is weaker than his own, he will be swallowed up in one gulp.

The reason why Zhao Hao didn't swallow up Zhao Lingyu's luck before was not because he cared about family affection, but because when Zhao Lingyu was born, he was busy digesting the power of the dragon vein.

The power of the dragon veins has been absorbed by the Zhao family for many years and has also been tainted with the Zhao family's mark. Therefore, Zhao Hao was able to set his sights on the dragon veins.

However, he did not expect that the dragon vein was so overbearing. It took him too long to digest the power of the dragon vein, so much so that it was not until today that he could start to swallow Zhao Lingyu's luck.

But this time is different from before. With the power of dragon veins, it shouldn't take long for him to devour and digest Zhao Lingyu's luck. On the contrary, Lin Yun's luck might be more troublesome. There is no bridge between them, and Lin Yun's luck is so strong that he can't steal the luck from Lin Yun. He can only do it slowly.

Zhao Hao's plan failed, so he came up with another one. He said to Lin Yun, "Since you were abducted by a strong man, I will restore your freedom now and send you to reunite with your family. How about that?"

After hearing what Zhao Hao said, Lin Yun became even more certain that he had a problem. Was it really necessary for him to lick a little eunuch like his father?

If you don't know the principle, just do the opposite.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I am a disabled person and don't want to see my parents again. Let them think I am dead."

Seeing Lin Yun refuse again, Zhao Hao finally came to his senses. He was too impatient and made Lin Yun alert.

Yes, for someone who has such great luck, even if he is not very smart, the influence of his luck will help him to seek benefits and avoid harm.

Simple routines may not be useful anymore.

Zhao Hao couldn't help but make other plans in his mind.

He looked at Lin Yun meaningfully and said, "Little Lin, I think you are very compatible with me, so I sincerely want to help you. You don't need to be so nervous."

Lin Yun felt a chill again. Was Zhao Hao planning to reveal his true colors?

Lin Yun had a vague feeling that he was about to reveal his identity.

Concubine Shu standing aside was the most confused person in the whole audience. What was going on? The emperor ignored her, the enchanting and beautiful concubine, and was happily chatting with a handsome young eunuch.

This little Linzi is indeed very handsome, but the emperor...

Could it be that he has not been interested in women in recent years because he has been developing new ways to play?

ps: The recent updates are not strong because of some things in life. Once things settle down, I will resume the previous update rhythm as soon as possible.
