Chapter 40 The Mortal Overlord?



Wu Wei's phone warning and Liu Qingyun's helpless retreat did not cause Zheng Ya much trouble.

At least in the eyes of the palace maids and eunuchs of the Viscount's mansion, Zheng Ya appeared indifferent on the surface, cold and unsmiling, exuding a captivating aura. Whenever he ordered people to prepare daily necessities, the palace maids and eunuchs were terrified.

When Liu Qingyun rushed back to the princess's residence, she saw Wu Weizhen controlling a drone to monitor Zheng Ya's every move. She stepped forward and asked, "Princess, this boy is too arrogant. Why are you stopping me from taming him..."

“Master, you have personally experienced the power of his melon grenade. There is no good in breaking ties with him.”

"If you cross his line, who knows what even more powerful magic weapon he might unleash? If he injures or kills your master, then everything will be over!" Wu Wei comforted him with mixed feelings.

Liu Qingyun sat down on the soft couch next to her and stared at Zheng Ya on the remote control screen, saying, "This kid is like an emperor who has fallen to earth. He acts domineeringly, without a doubt."

I really don't know where he got the guts?

Isn't he afraid of overdoing it and getting himself killed?

"Master, perhaps we, master and disciple, have underestimated his strength?"

On the surface, his strength is only at the first or second level of Foundation Establishment, but he dares to challenge the entire Great Li Dynasty alone. I'm afraid neither you nor I, master and disciple, would believe that he doesn't have a trump card to protect himself. Wu Wei watched Zheng Ya swallow his food with a frown, and his turbulent mood calmed down.

After a moment of contemplation, Liu Qingyun said, "The princess understands him and said that he has the means to protect himself, which means that he will not delay the princess's important matters."

But now he's dancing on the edge of a knife, isn't he afraid of dying?

He had already thoroughly offended Prince Rong, yet he still dared to send someone to order food from Prince Rong's Fuxiang Restaurant. Wasn't he afraid of being poisoned?

“Master, if you suspect that Fuxianglou is hostile to him, deliberately cooking unpalatable dishes, or poisoning him, then you are sorely mistaken,” Wu Wei analyzed thoughtfully.

This made Liu Qingyun frown and ask, "Princess, aren't you underestimating Prince Rong?"

“Master, it’s not that I’m underestimating Prince Rong’s power, but I’m certain that Prince Rong wouldn’t dare to poison Zheng Ya.”

Rather, Zheng Ya wanted Prince Rong to make a mistake, to seize the opportunity to use his weakness as leverage to accumulate luck for cultivation. He had no regard for martial ethics whatsoever! Wu Wei boldly speculated on Zheng Ya's motives.

Liu Qingyun laughed in exasperation: "So, Zheng Ya is determined to stir up trouble to the very end?"

"Yes, the key is that the more trouble he causes, the more he benefits, and he doesn't care at all whether the trouble is good or bad."

In my opinion, he is now eager to kill Prince Rong, shock the world, and create lasting good fortune for himself.

He probably wants to overthrow the Great Li Dynasty and destroy the Zheng family's imperial rule to make money. If he fails, running away would be too easy for him. Sigh! The more Wu Wei analyzed Zheng Ya's thoughts, the more exasperated she became.

Liu Qingyun said in shock, "This, this is too terrifying!"

What if he seizes the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to the Zheng imperial power? Wouldn't that jeopardize the princess's important affairs...?

"Master is overthinking it. Zheng Ya has his own moral bottom line."

The cycle of cause and effect had no effect on him; only his own will determined the direction of his conduct and actions.

This is the capital he uses to cultivate his spiritual energy, and he is not subject to anyone's control.

"Master, don't provoke his murderous intent in the future!" Wu Wei said expectantly.

Liu Qingyun said worriedly, "If that's the case, Zheng Ya will be completely free from the princess's control, which may delay the princess's important matters..."

“Master, his every move is being monitored, yet he doesn’t seem to care. This suggests he’s been planning this all along. Should we, master and disciple, just wait and see?” Wu Wei set the tone.

Liu Qingyun said no more: "Since the princess has made this decision, I will go and collect crystals to exchange for gene potions from him as soon as possible, and strive to create an invincible army to conquer the world in the shortest possible time."

"Yes, that's the only way."

"I just don't understand why someone who has never cared about money has suddenly become so greedy. It's strange!" Wu Wei changed the subject.

Liu Qingyun said thoughtfully, "Could it be raising spirit beasts, setting up formations, or evolving magical artifacts..."

"Oh, I know, he's feeding his companion spirit treasure, the sea anemone?" Wu Wei exclaimed, standing up in surprise.

Liu Qingyun was startled and asked, "How could a companion spirit treasure possibly exist?"

“Master, he and I crossed over from another realm to cultivate our companion spiritual treasures and lay the strongest foundation for our cultivation.”

"This world also harbors primordial pearls and special spiritual treasure embryos. If given the opportunity, Master could also subdue a companion spiritual treasure embryo and forge an unparalleled foundation for cultivation," Wu Wei dangled a carrot in front of her.

Liu Qingyun exclaimed with delight, "Ah, that's wonderful! But I wonder how innate spiritual treasures compare to the innate spiritual treasures of ancient myths?"

"Master, the gap between them is just like your current situation, like Zheng Ya's. They are mortal emperors, just waiting to be developed and grown!" Wu Wei tried to win people over with a mix of truth and falsehood.

Little did she know that her kindness was being subtly influenced by Lan Meier, and her competitiveness was turning into a utilitarian mindset...

In the main hall of the Prince's Mansion, Prince Rong, upon receiving a report from Manager Qi of Fuxiang Restaurant, angrily grabbed a white jade bowl and teacup and smashed it on the ground with a loud crash.

"Your Highness, please calm your anger. Fu Ya has gone too far. This humble servant requests permission to assassinate Fu Ya. I will die for him if I fail..." Zheng Liu knelt on one knee to request permission to fight.

Prince Rong paced back and forth in the main hall, angrily saying, "Enough! It's true that Fu Ya has gone too far in bullying people, but he has also seized the opportunity to retaliate against me."

I dare not lay a finger on him now, lest I provoke my father, my elder brother, and other forces to target me.

On the contrary, they are eager for me to break ties with that brat Fu Ya, so they can seize the opportunity to push things along and get rid of me, their biggest threat.

How could I allow them to have their way?

“Your Highness, we cannot take action against that brat, otherwise he will recklessly challenge Your Highness’s prestige, and if this continues, it will be extremely detrimental to Your Highness’s reputation…” Zheng Liu advised worriedly.

Prince Rong raised his hand to stop them: "Alright, news has come from the palace that Father and my elder brother are both in charge of welcoming Fu Ya to the south of the Yangtze River. This shows that they also cannot tolerate Fu Ya, this troublemaker, and are doing this on purpose, aiming to kill him with a borrowed knife!"

"Your Highness means that the two emperors want to eliminate dissidents and seize military power and popular support..." Zheng Liu said in shock.

Prince Rong shook his head and laughed, "Isn't this really good?"

The fact that Yu Cheng Qian Yuan Immortal Sect eliminated dissidents from the Zheng family's imperial power and brought down that person is exactly what I wanted.

On the contrary, I am very much looking forward to seeing how much the Qian Yuan Immortal Sect values ​​Fu Ya, and whether they will protect Fu Ya's safety and help the Zheng imperial power eliminate dissidents!

"Congratulations, Your Highness! Congratulations on the success of your great undertaking!"

"This humble servant requests to lead the charge, and secretly adds fuel to the fire..." Zheng Liu requested to lead the charge again.

Prince Rong turned to him angrily and said, "Sixth Prince, you are determined to kill Fu Ya to avenge Zheng Yi. This is a righteous act that I should have helped to achieve."

However, you dare to sacrifice the greater good for a small gain and delay my grand plan...

"This humble servant dares not..." Zheng Liu admitted in fear. Prince Rong then changed the subject, saying in a sinister tone, "You cannot deal with that brat Fu Ya in person, but you can secretly use someone else to do your dirty work..."
