Wei Ling felt that ever since he was tricked into the manor by his own Majesty, he had been speechless more and more, like now.
He had been worried about how His Majesty would get along with Yun Luo after he regained his memory. He was too stupid and naive at the time. How could His Majesty do anything to Yun Luo? At most, he would do something to hinder the existence of the two.
He really wanted to tell His Majesty that there was no need to do so, but it was just a thought.
Samuel was still paying attention to the movements in the yard. He didn't look at it openly for fear of being discovered by Yun Luo. He never underestimated Yun Luo, and what happened in the past also proved this.
Anyone who dared to underestimate Yun Luo and act rashly would pay the corresponding price. He didn't want to fail halfway before achieving his goal.
His Majesty showed no sign of leaving, nor did he intend to discuss the matter at hand. Immersed in his own thoughts, Wei Ling waited a moment before speaking, "Master, I think there's no need to be too wary of mutant plants..."
It's okay to include humans, but even mutated plants are included in the category of love rivals. Isn't that a bit too cruel?
Judging from the boss's appearance, he doesn't seem like the type to engage in human-plant romance. He likes furry things so much, and a cold, hairless mutant plant doesn't seem to be something he'd be interested in.
"You don't understand," His Majesty said quietly. "The young boss has a unique aura that makes people want to get close. I originally thought it was only for male orcs, but later I discovered that's not the case."
As long as the young boss wants, as long as the young boss wants, all the people, strange beasts and mutated plants in this world will be subdued by him.
At first, because of this, His Majesty had thought of investigating Yun Luo, especially after he changed back into beast form, his resistance to Yun Luo was almost non-existent. With such a terrifying ability, it would not be rational to let it develop if Yun Luo's safety could not be guaranteed.
Wei Ling thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed true. There were many mutant plants in the manor, and whenever they were in front of Yun Luo, these mutant plants were unspeakably docile.
"Master, do you need me to check on the young boss?"
"What is there to investigate? I will explore the secrets of the young boss myself." What's the point of finding out directly? His Majesty has a hunch that even if Wei Ling goes to investigate personally, he will never find out anything.
It might even alert the small boss, and then it would be even more difficult to get close to him.
When Yun Luo lost his memory and stayed with the young boss as a kitten, he did things without hiding anything in front of him. At that time, he didn't understand what these meant. After regaining his memory, he felt the young boss's unfathomable nature.
"Do you remember the person who intercepted the signal from that group? That was the work of the young boss. Wei Ling, have you been living in comfort in the manor for too long? Have you lost even basic judgment?"
"I acknowledge my guilt." Wei Ling was shocked. He was careless. When he looked at Yun Luo, he had the inherent concepts of the world and ignored the differences between Yun Luo and others. How could a person who founded Lingsheng Tower and could overcome every crisis be measured with the eyes of ordinary people?
"I don't want to hear similar words again. Once this is over, I will accept the punishment myself."
Samuel spoke calmly, but Wei Ling broke out in a cold sweat. He had seen His Majesty acting like a spoiled child in front of Yun Luo so many times that he almost forgot what kind of person His Majesty was.
Yun Luo informed the housekeeper about what happened to the mutant rice. Soon, the housekeeper came with his men, and Yun Luo handed the man over to the housekeeper.
With the mutant rice around, the four people didn't dare to act rashly. The housekeeper didn't need to worry about it, as the frightened and angry orc told them everything that had happened.
It turned out that a small noble accidentally learned about the existence of the fourth-level mutant rice, and had evil intentions, wanting to take it for himself, which led to the scene that happened today.
A small noble family.
"Why is there still no news? Such a long time has passed. Didn't they say they had found the target and taken action?" The young nobleman paced anxiously in the room, his heart pounding, feeling that something was going to happen.
"Don't worry, sir. We are fully prepared and have hired professionals, so there will be no problems."
"I hope so. I don't know why I always feel a little uneasy. Are you sure there will be no problems with the plan?" The young noble stopped and stood in front of the man dressed as a servant, with a suspicious tone.
This man was not a servant of their family. He suddenly appeared in front of the little noble one day and told him that there was a business that could make him rich and asked him if he was willing to do it.
Although the small noble had a noble title, he was ranked last on the planet Somir. He was not as powerful or financially capable as other nobles. He had wanted to develop his power for a long time, but had never had the opportunity. Now that the opportunity had come to him, he wavered.
The man, dressed in simple black, seemed to blend in with the darkness behind him. He said in a coaxing tone, "As long as you do as I say and obtain the world's only fourth-level mutant rice, you can have anything you want in the future."
"You know that Lingshenglou can make food that alleviates orcish energy riots, right? But do you know that the fruit of the fourth-level mutant rice can truly do this? Once you possess it and master the method to alleviate energy riots, will you still worry about being looked down upon?"
The young nobleman was persuaded, and the man stayed.
The young noble was no fool. He asked him, "Why did you tell me such news? If it's true as you said, why don't you want the mutant rice yourself?"
"I'm in a bit of trouble right now. Telling you this is my reward for keeping me here for a while." The man replied with a smile, "But you have to be the one to handle this whole thing, otherwise my presence will be exposed. If you don't believe me, you can check it out first."
The young nobleman was skeptical and checked according to the man's words. The conclusion he came to was consistent with what the man said. Yun Luo did not deliberately conceal the fact that there was a mutant rice in the manor, and it could be easily found out.
Pulling away from his memories, the young noble shook off the panic in his heart: "You're right. Now I just need to calmly wait for the results. Panic won't solve anything."
As soon as he finished speaking, the guard came running in with a panicked look on his face: "Sir, this is not good!"
The young noble's heart, which had not yet been relieved, began to lift again. He took the handrail beside him to steady himself and asked, "What happened?"
The little noble was taken away, the evidence was irrefutable, and he had no power to resist.
He wanted to ask the man for help, but found that the man was no longer in the house.
Yun Luo gave some spiritual power to the mutant rice before leaving. The mutant rice hooked onto Yun Luo's clothes and didn't want to let him go.
Yun Luo touched the leaves that were hooked on his clothes and chuckled: "You did a good job today."
The mutant rice happily rubbed Yun Luo with its leaves.
007 continued to tell Yunluo what had been interrupted: [That person hid too deeply. I discovered that there was another person behind him.]
[The fact that a being like the "Blood Lion" could be quietly submerged in the tide of history requires one to imagine the power behind it. Furthermore, the "Blood Lion" is only the part we know about.] Yun Luo had a premonition.
The power of the empire is complex and intricate. The tyrant used bloody means to cleanse it and eliminated many families and forces that sucked the blood of the empire. But this does not mean that the empire is completely clean now. The old ones will be eliminated, and new ones will continue to emerge. Where there is power struggle, evil is most likely to breed.
Human desires are always endless. After enjoying the wonderful taste brought by power, how many people can let go? How many of those who once cleared away evil have become new evildoers after experiencing the evil of power?
Yun Luo has seen through too much of human nature. He's seen the emperor and his ministers, who built a kingdom together, become the last of the birds and rabbits to be abandoned. He's seen a wise ruler who cleaned up the court and ushered in a prosperous era become incompetent and ruin the country's fortunes in his later years. He's seen honest officials who worked hard for the people, dressed in fine clothes, become the people they once hated the most...
Human nature has always been the most difficult thing to understand in this world.
[People tend to forget things. It's been several years since the tyrant slaughtered the Imperial Star. Memories fade, and some brave souls can't resist the temptation.]
"It seems that some people can't sit still because they haven't seen blood for too long." Samuel looked at the news from Emperor Star, his tone unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Wei Ling knelt respectfully and said nothing.
Every year when His Majesty is recuperating and unable to appear in public, there are always some tentative claws ready to make a move.
"If they want to make a fuss, let them make as much noise as they want. When they've made enough noise, it's time to quiet down."
"The master seems to have recovered faster this year than in previous years." At this time every year, Wei Ling always followed His Majesty. In previous years, it usually took His Majesty more than two months to completely control the riot in his body.
"Not bad," Samuel looked at his hands, "and I feel like it hasn't gotten any worse this year."
Not only has it not worsened, it has also shown a trend of slowing down.
It’s all thanks to the small boss.
Samuel was sure of that.
In the vast space, a large black spaceship was moving as fast as a ghost, and an "X" mark could be faintly seen on the hull.
A masked man in a black robe sat in the control room, staring at the screen silently. He came here in person to complete a transaction.
This deal is very important to the higher-ups, and once it is completed, his position will be more secure.
As for the eighth-level cubs they wanted, compared with this transaction, they are not worth mentioning at all.
He thought that the higher-ups wanted the cub only because it was a rare eighth-level exotic beast, and they didn't know the cub's true identity. Not only him, but even the person who issued the order thought so.
Except for a few people like Wei Ling, no one knows where His Majesty went during the time he was "missing". Most people in the empire don't even know that His Majesty "disappears" for a period of time every year.
Yun Luo knew this because it was mentioned in the original novel.
The reason why he guessed that Xiaobai's identity was not simple but did not think of him as a tyrant was because both Yan Su and the young Xiaobai he saw were disguised. Under certain preconceived notions, he would never associate them as the same person.
[Host, they're approaching Somir.] 007 left a string of data on a member's personal computer so they could keep an eye on what was happening there.
[By the way, host, I discovered they are in contact with another force. It seems the two sides have reached some kind of cooperation and are planning to conduct a transaction on the planet Somir.] Remembering the information he had discovered, 007 quickly told Yun Luo.
[Oh?] Yun Luo fished the fried meat out of the pot, and the aroma of oil instantly filled the whole room. [What are they going to trade?]
【Some kind of large weapon.】
[Weapons,] Yun Luo lowered his eyes and thought, [It must be a big deal to send so many people here.]
Time flies, and the news that Lingshenglou is going to serve new dishes has caused a lot of heated discussion because this time the dishes all contain mutant plants.
——This is the first time I’ve seen someone serve mutant plants on the dinner table.
Can mutant plants really be eaten? I chewed the leaves out of curiosity, and the taste is hard to describe.
——There’s a werewolf upstairs who even eats mutant plants.
——I am more curious about how to remove the violent energy in the mutated plants. Is it the same method as removing the violent energy in the meat of exotic beasts?
——You have touched upon my blind spot in knowledge.
——Isn’t it a new product released today? Has anyone tried it?
——Isn’t it better to just make exotic beast meat? Why do they have the crazy idea of making mutant plants? Is Lingshenglou getting too carried away?
——Anyway, I just want to eat the exotic beast meat from Lingsheng Tower. The meat is so delicious, why should I eat vegetarian food?
After the news was released, there were many voices of doubt. Lingshenglou is no longer the Lingshenglou that had nothing in the past. After experiencing several ups and downs, it now has a lot of fans. Many fans sent private messages to the official Weibo to ask what was going on.
Yun Ye flipped through the comments that were questioning and boycotting, touched the corner of his mouth, recalled the delicious food he had tasted in advance, and thought to himself: The more intense the boycott is now, the more painful it will be to be slapped in the face later.
It’s really delicious. It may be late, but it will never be absent.
While replying to the worried fans, he also sent a message to Yun Luo asking about the next live broadcast arrangement.
This is also what Yunluo's fans are concerned about. Among the anchors they follow, everyone has a fixed live broadcast time, not every day, but at least a fixed duration every week. In contrast, Yunluo never leaves a preview of the next live broadcast time after each live broadcast.
Yun Luo replied quickly: Wait two days, didn’t you record a video before? Put one up first.
Yunye: That’s fine, there are so many doubts on Starnet.
The video had been processed long ago. Yun Ye chose a quiet time late at night to upload the video to the official Weibo of Lingsheng Building.
Lingshenglou V: I heard everyone is curious about whether the mutant plants taste good. Click here for a sneak peek [heart.JPG][heart.JPG][#video#]
The video shows the production process of Dapanji. The chicken is cut into pieces and put into the pot, the potatoes are washed and peeled, and the thick soup is bubbling. The potatoes and chicken are soaked in the soup together. As time goes by, the potatoes are dyed the same color as the rich soup.
— What are people doing?! I saw this in the middle of the night! [Crying.JPG]
— Holy crap, is this really made from mutant plants? [I'm craving this.JPG]
— Let me see the name of the dish, Big Plate Chicken? Ah, my mouth is watering, slurp~
How can I sleep after seeing this in the middle of the night?! [Angrily flipping the table.JPG]
—I shouldn't have lost control of my hands! What random video did I click?!
——How can I be the only one getting hurt in the middle of the night? Hehehe~
——The above answer is correct, I went there!
——Aren’t you afraid of being beaten to death?
With the thought that I shouldn't be the only one to be hurt, the number of reposts of the video increased dramatically in a short period of time. Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
Yunye, who had nothing to do, slept soundly. When he woke up the next morning, he was faced with an explosion of private messages.
Yun Luo's Xingbo account was not spared either. Yun Luo forwarded the video posted by Lingshenglou's official Weibo account and left other matters to 007. He searched the room but couldn't find the kitten.
Xiaobai has changed his usual behavior these days. He is not seen during the day. If he did not come back on time every night and the people brought by Wei Ling were still working diligently in the manor, Yun Luo would almost think that Xiaobai had left quietly.
The housekeeper brought clean clothes and reported on the work done recently.
With Vincent joining, the burden on the butler was greatly reduced. At Yun Luo's suggestion, after handing over part of the work, he picked up his duties as a butler again.
"I have notified the heads of those industries, and they have all verbally agreed to come." The housekeeper said as he sorted Yun Luo's clothes.
"Did you encounter any resistance?" Yun Luo adjusted his cuffs. He always liked simple style. After coming to Somir Star, the butler specially customized some for him.
"No," the butler said, feeling somewhat surprised. "After I explained my purpose, they all readily agreed."
The butler had thought it would take some effort, but the progress was too smooth, which made it seem strange. After hesitating for a moment, the butler expressed his concerns: "Sir, will there be an explosion?"
"Don't worry, I don't plan to keep any of the people sent by the Oren family." No matter what those people want to do, Yun Luo will not give them the opportunity to do it.
"This...will the Oren family have any objections?" The butler certainly believed in Yun Luo's ability, but he was worried about the Oren family. He saw the potential of Lingsheng Building, but he was afraid that one day Duke Oren would find out and take Lingsheng Building away from Yun Luo.
They are now on the remote Somir Star, and the news has not yet reached the Imperial Star so quickly. However, according to the development speed of Lingsheng Building, it is only a matter of time before it is discovered by the Oren Family. His master is alone, can he fight against the Oren Family at that time?
"The Oren family," Yun Luo fastened the last button, "they are just a few insignificant servants. What can I do if I deal with them?"
The Oren family has its roots on the Imperial Star. Those who are truly valued stay on the Imperial Star, or at least go to other developed planets. Most of those who come here are not taken seriously by the Oren family.
Seeing that Yun Luo didn't care, the housekeeper felt a little relieved.
Sir, you are so capable, there must be a solution.
The video of Dapanji was so widely spread that even the planetary governor saw it. He was busy cleaning up a series of things after the fall of the Frod family and had not been to Lingsheng Tower for a long time.
After finally finishing my work, I saw a video late at night. I was so greedy that I couldn’t sleep well all night. My dreams were filled with delicious food floating in front of me.
The next day, he couldn't sit still any longer, so he changed into his private clothes and went to Lingsheng Building.
Yun Luogang and the butler were halfway there when they heard that the planet chief was coming, so they turned and went to the reception room.
After a brief greeting, the planetary leader sat down opposite Yun Luo.
"I came here because I want to tell the young boss something. The young noble who wanted to steal the mutant rice has confessed his crime. He said that a man told him that he knew about the mutant rice." The planet chief briefly repeated what the young noble said.
Yun Luo crossed his hands on his knees and nodded at his knees when he heard this: "What is the identity of that man?"
"That's the strange thing. No matter how we asked, the little noble insisted that he didn't know the other party's identity." If this matter didn't concern Yun Luo, the planetary governor wouldn't be so concerned about it, let alone make this trip in person.
"Do you really not know or are you unwilling to tell?" Yun Luo pondered. Not many people knew the true grade of the mutant rice. Who could have spread the news and encouraged people to steal it?
"I guess he really doesn't know. The little noble is very timid. He will tell everything if he is scared." The planetary governor has never met such a cooperative prisoner.
"The difficulty now lies with that man. We don't even know who he is or what he wants to do. If we can't catch him, no one knows what he will do next." If the young nobleman was telling the truth, the other party never revealed his identity from beginning to end, which shows how difficult this person is. What exactly does such a person want to do by appearing on Somir Star?
"Not many people know about the mutant rice, and the claim that the spiritual rice can alleviate energy turmoil is even more absurd. That person probably wants to use someone else to seize the mutant rice."
"If you want to mutate the rice, why don't you do it yourself? Instead, find someone who can easily reveal his flaws?" The planet chief was puzzled.
"He's probably afraid of being recognized by me because he's not showing up. As for finding an easily exposed target to steal the mutant rice..." Yun Luo thought for a moment, "I think his real goal isn't the mutant rice, but to use this failure to achieve some other goal."
Not knowing who the other party was, Yun Luo couldn't judge what the other party's real purpose was for a moment.
"Young Boss always manages to escape danger, and this time is no exception," the planetary leader said, his expression softening as he explained his other purpose for coming here. "I wonder when Young Boss's Big Plate Chicken will be available?"
Yun Luo had discovered before that the planet chief was definitely a foodie. When he first sold exotic beast meat at the market, the first person to buy it was the planet chief in disguise.
"There's still some left from yesterday. If the Planet Master doesn't mind..."
"I don't mind, I don't mind." The planet chief couldn't wait. He had been seduced all night and now it was the best thing to eat.
"If you want to eat something in the future, just ask someone to get it." On the planet Somir, the planet chief helped Yun Luo a lot. Coincidentally, the planet chief liked the food he cooked, so Yun Luo was willing to give something back.
"Hahaha, no need. As long as the boss is willing to save a seat for me, that's fine. To be honest, eating at Lingshenglou feels better."
Not only the planet chief has this feeling, many guests who have been to Lingsheng Building feel the same way. Lingsheng Building has a unique atmosphere, and dining there is a feast for the eyes, smell, and taste.
Yun Luo was somewhat concerned about the man with unknown purpose, and lay on the bed thinking about any suspicious people.
[007, how is the follow-up with Elva going?]
[I was just about to tell the host about this. Elhua is missing. He disappeared seven days ago, but it was only reported today.]
Missing? How could he disappear so suddenly? According to the young noble, the unidentified man had appeared seven days ago, saying he was in trouble and shouldn't show up. Could there be a connection between the two?
Yun Luo told his guess to the planet chief, who quickly replied that he would pay attention to the matter. Elhua was not a native of Somir. If he really concealed his identity and came to Somir, the planet chief would not let it go.
Feeling a little hungry, Yun Luo went to bed barefoot.
The floor was covered with a thick, fluffy carpet, and you wouldn't feel cold at all when walking barefoot on it. The carpet was specially laid there by the housekeeper after he discovered that Yun Luo liked to walk around the room barefoot.
In the insulated box were fried chunks of meat, which Yunluo had fried as a snack at noon. He took out a small plate and pulled over a chair. Yunluo sat on the chair, supporting his chin with one hand, and nonchalantly fed his mouth the fried chunks of meat.
The outside was crispy, the meat was tender, and the aroma of oil mixed with the aroma of meat filled his mouth. Yun Luo squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
When the kitten jumped onto the window in the moonlight all over the yard, it happened to see this scene.
The young man in loose pajamas was half lying on the table, with half of his shoulder exposed due to his posture. His black hair slid down from his shoulders, revealing his fair skin vaguely.
The young man half-closed his eyes in a state of contentment, his long eyelashes falling, casting a small shadow like a fluttering butterfly. His glossy pale pink lips parted slightly, the tip of his tongue barely visible. Samuel's gaze lingered on the young man's lips, unable to move away.
As if sensing the gaze from the window, Yun Luo tilted his head, stood up and walked towards the window.
Samuel looked away in panic. Yun Luo carried the cat to the table and said jokingly, "You still remember to come back?"
"Meow~"
"I left this specially for you, do you want to eat it?"
Yunluo picked up a piece of fried meat and fed it to the kitten. The kitten subconsciously opened its mouth, but Yunluo quickly fed the meat into his own mouth.
The kitten chased the piece of meat blankly until it felt a soft touch on its mouth. It licked it subconsciously and suddenly came to its senses.
This time it was Yun Luo who was stunned.
He seemed to be licked by the kitten...
——Lips.
