King Wen was about to go back to his palace to sleep when he heard this familiar voice...

He turned his head dully and looked at Jiang Bei, who was not far away with a faint smile on his face.

Jiangbei is in a good mood now...

After all, after coming to Taoism, both his practice and life have been going very smoothly.

The only minor incident that might have exposed his strength didn't seem to be a problem for now.

but……

King Wen was extremely upset.

King Wen was dumbfounded, bewildered, and stunned...he was in a terrible state!

But this kind of gaze only lasted for a moment.

He blinked and when he looked at Jiang Bei again, it was as if he had seen the murderer of his father!

My eyes are red!

After a moment of silence, suddenly...

He let out a roar, and the powerful strength of the peak of the Mingshen realm was fully displayed at this moment!

Even Jiang Bei almost didn't react, it was really a bit sudden...

After all, in his view, King Wen has always been a calm old man.

But this operation... was really a bit beyond his expectations.

He rushed to Jiang Bei and grabbed him by the collar without saying a word.

"Boy, why are you so late today!"

Jiang Bei: “Ah?”

I'm a little confused.

This King Wen...something seems a little strange today.

Besides, the old man is already very old, and his death is approaching. His health is not very good... plus, he has inexplicably felt like he has aged by dozens of years recently. Jiang Bei thinks it is better not to fight with him as it is easy to cause accidental injuries.

That's not good.

This is like overturning someone's table after dinner...but I really can't understand why King Wen's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

King Wen: “…”

He looked at Jiang Bei carefully from top to bottom, as if examining him.

His frown deepened, and his eyes revealed a deep... incomprehension.

After a while, he said to himself solemnly: "It's not right, it's not right..."

Jiang Bei: “???”

What's wrong?

Does he have a blemish on his face or something?

"Your Highness...if you are upset, why don't you just tell me directly?" Jiang Bei said kindly.

"Hey! What can stimulate me?!" King Wen pretended to be free and easy, put Jiang Bei down, and even pretended that nothing happened, and looked up at the sky slightly.

"Oh, then I'll go practice if I'm fine." Jiang Bei nodded, and without saying much... he went straight to the palace.

On average, he has to suck thousands of spirit coins from King Wen every hour. Now he is just a chat companion... isn't that a huge loss?

Jiang Bei has figured out this account clearly!

And with the list that King Wen had brought out earlier, Jiang Bei still felt a sense of urgency...

A small Yunzhou can produce so many powerful people in the extreme realm. What about the entire young generation of Taoism?

This battle of luck is really difficult.

It is no exaggeration to say that every second counts!

"etc!"

Just when Jiang Bei had taken a few steps, King Wen's anxious voice came from behind.

Jiang Bei stopped and was about to turn around.

He saw King Wen rushing up to him in a hurry, still sizing him up intently.

After a while, King Wen finally spoke: "Are you okay?"

Jiang Bei: “???”

What can happen to me?

I totally don't understand why this old man seems a little... mentally unstable today?

"What are you talking about, Your Highness? I just went home... and practiced in a different place. What's the big deal?" Jiang Bei smiled foolishly.

He acted like, "I'm young, don't scare me."

I feel a little inexplicably worried, but I pretend to be strong.

"Release a wisp of true energy." King Wen said directly, not wanting to wait for Jiang Bei to take the initiative at the door of the training room... He was very anxious now!

"oh."

After all, it was the request of the financial sponsor, so Jiang Bei did as he was told.

A misty white Qi flowed out from his fingertips, and King Wen grasped it keenly... After feeling it for a while, his expression indeed relaxed a little.

"It's really okay..."

Not only was it not weaker than last night, but it was also slightly stronger than last night, but not much. It was simply incomparable to the training in the palace that day!

Next, King Wen looked at Jiang Bei with an even weirder expression.

He opened his mouth, not knowing where to start the words. He felt that... if he said it rashly and was hurt by a woman... it would easily affect Jiang Bei's Taoism.

But if he kept this matter to himself, King Wen felt that his spiritual faith would collapse first.

I can't bear it!

"My dear Jiang, was it possible that while you were practicing with your Taoist partner... your essence was sucked away?" King Wen looked at Jiang Bei with an awkward expression.

Jiang Bei: “???”

He was totally confused, okay?

When King Wen saw Jiang Bei's expression, he was even more puzzled... What kind of expression was that? Was he shocked at how he knew this news?

Two days ago, we practiced dual cultivation for the first time... Then he didn't come to practice on the second day, and when he came on the third day, he was seriously injured. What other possibility could there be?

King Wen sneered in his heart.

But I can't figure out why nothing happened today...

You know, Jiang Bei was actually two hours late today!

From King Wen’s perspective…

This gifted young man is hopeless... otherwise what just happened wouldn't have happened. King Wen's mentality exploded and he planned to go back to sleep and go to the imperial city to fight for his life tomorrow.

What are you doing?

You practiced with me, and finally recovered some strength... and then went back to practice dual cultivation with a woman?

It would be fine if you really practiced dual cultivation to improve your strength, but as soon as you do this you get injured, have your essence sucked away, then have to recuperate at home for a day the next day, and then on the third day you drag your weakened body to come to me to suck my spirit coins?

Just to be a bootlicker?

Unfortunately, there is no such advanced word as "suck-up" in Taoism, but from King Wen's perspective... this is what it means.

He just can't accept it!

What has he become?

So how could King Wen’s mentality not collapse?

Not only did he have his essence sucked away by the woman, but he also had to delay a day of his practice!

The time is tight and the task is heavy... and now there is this obstacle?

Even King Wen felt that today was the same routine as last time. Jiang Bei was injured by a woman, and he might not practice today...

King Wen looked at Jiang Bei with an increasingly awkward gaze.

"My Lord, do you have any other questions?"

"If there's no problem... I'll go in and practice?" Jiang Bei pointed inside, probably knowing that the old man might have misunderstood something.

But I really didn't expect it to be so complicated.

"have!"

This time King Wen responded without any hesitation.

"Then tell me... I'm in a hurry to practice." Jiang Bei was miserable.

King Wen snorted coldly, thinking to himself, why are you so anxious now?

What did you do this morning?

"I just want to ask, why did you come so late? How long has it been since you left the palace last night?"

"Jiang Bei, you used to start practicing at dawn." King Wen said angrily.

It's just... very subtle.

I don’t know whether he hopes that Jiang Bei will come to absorb more spirit coins from him... Maybe he still hopes so.

Especially knowing that Jiang Bei is not a dog who uses his own essence to lick vicious women.

"Your Highness...you are not still...a virgin?" Jiang Bei looked strange.
