Chapter 157 The Imperial Way Has No Bounds



[When your friends arrive, you should naturally ask them to leave first, and those still dining should receive a 50% discount.]

You kept the door closed for three days and two nights.

You have completely forgiven it.

Xixi has gained more than twelve pounds.

Afterwards, you lay in bed.

[Xixi, standing to the side, asked curiously, "Is this how your human race reproduces?"]

You nod.

Xi Xi asked curiously, "These babies could probably weigh twelve pounds each, right?"

You almost blurted out, "No, no, no, it can't be that bad! Humans aren't that terrifying and monstrous creatures!"

[You and Xixi have been happily together for over two months, but now your cultivation is blocked by the Demon Egg, so you can just enjoy your happiness.]

"That damned Demon Egg is still eroding my life force, forcing me to live to the standard Celestial Lifespan of a little over a thousand years, even with six times my original essence!"

[Xixi left, returning to the ancestral land of the Water Spirit—Taiyi True Lake. After saying goodbye to it, you reopened the Veteran's Barbecue Restaurant.]

Yun Shou realized something was wrong: "Wait a minute, isn't that yandere True King still watching from behind the scenes?"

"No...it can't be that bad. It should just be sensing that I'm alive and well from tens of thousands of miles away. It's impossible for it to actually be watching me from the side."

"Although he is a true king, he belongs to the demon race with very poor methods. He only needs to fight and use his weapons and materials. Unlike us, the native species, humans, we have to consider many extraordinary methods."

[In 1993, you drove the Veteran's Barbecue Restaurant out of business.]

[The wild game that Chuhe Shang hunted in the First Transvestite Battle Zone had some byproducts of "Wusheng Tai Sui" on it. Your ingredients weren't cleaned properly, resulting in a bunch of customers getting mushroom poisoning and filing complaints against you.]

"It's all your fault for grilling that I ended up chatting with my neighbor's pet dog for ages, and even the ants passing by were laughing at me!"

"It's all your fault for grilling meat! I was laughing so hard I was running naked down the street and even confessing my love to Aunt Wang!"

"After eating your barbecue, I actually saw my wife who had passed away many years ago!"

"Wait, isn't this a good thing?" you exclaim angrily. "Why would I complain about this?"

The man broke down: "How could I possibly resist my wife after seeing her! But, but besides myself, all I have left in my house is our old dog demon, Big Yellow!"

"I almost killed Big Yellow, but it didn't make a sound the whole time, thus avoiding damage to my reputation!"

"I'm so sorry," you apologize, but inwardly you think: the face it gritted its teeth to save for you has been torn off and thrown on the ground by your own hands.

Faced with a deluge of negative reviews, you can't believe it: "I grilled the meat thoroughly, even if there were mushrooms still on it, it should be cooked through, how could it possibly cause food poisoning?"

You tried one yourself.

"Yun Shou, I'm here to see you again!" Xi Xi suddenly appeared at your door, sobbing. You put down the rest of the grilled meat, deciding to eat the rest later.

[After a long while, you lay on the bed, stroking Xixi's smooth, long, flowing hair, and complained to it, "Customers these days are so troublesome. They actually said that the meat I grilled had mushrooms in it, and that it was poisonous."]

[Xixi cried: "..."]

You angrily retorted, "What's wrong with it? It's been all the same meat from the same place for so many years! Have you ever considered that the problem might be with yourselves?!"

[Xixi cried: "..."]

You scoffed, "I just ate a skewer, and I didn't get poisoned, did I?"

[Xixi cried: "..."]

"Hey, why haven't you said anything since the beginning?"

Yun Shou: "..."

Humorous and witty, always making people laugh.

You remain silent, lying motionless on the bed.

[The fungi growing on the Wusheng Tai Sui are truly amazing. Your Yuan Power can't detect the slightest problem. No wonder it's a strange life form that even a Supreme Being can't eliminate.]

[Why haven't you encountered this before...? Well, you've mostly been watching people burn mushrooms from the outside.]

The biggest question now is: Who is Xixi Qi standing next to us?

[The person I complained about before had a big yellow dog at home, but you don't have anyone at home.]

Half a day later, the hallucinogenic effects wore off, and you breathed a sigh of relief as you looked around.

[Great! It's a baby!]

Two years ago, when Xixi tearfully said goodbye and left, she used various materials to knead a ball of slime for you. The slime felt just like a water spirit, and you could input elemental energy to make it transform in various ways.

[It's a water spirit doll of the same weight as Xixi Qi.]

[It rubbed so diligently for you, so of course you happily accepted it.]

"Yun Shou, you can use this when I'm not around."

[You nodded on the surface, but you've never actually used it before. A dead doll can't compare to a living creature, so today is the first time it's been used.]

[It also saved your integrity this time.]

This year, after the Veteran's Barbecue Restaurant went out of business, you sighed and began to travel, exploring the beautiful landscapes of the country and witnessing the stunning scenery of Qinghai.

[The Demon Egg erodes your life and inhibits your growth, but it will not limit your power—you are now the strongest second-realm expert in the entire Azure Domain, without exception.]

[Third-realm beings are all extremely powerful; you won't encounter them casually, and you might even incur their wrath to the death.]

In 1994, you discovered a sect: the Hunyuan Life and Death Sect. The name sounded familiar, and then you remembered—it was Zhu Baowen.

[That once-mighty overlord, whose power was unparalleled in the early stages and whom you would never be a match for even now, lived in seclusion over a hundred years ago in Qingcheng, within the Yunyang Realm—the Three Kingdoms region.]

The Hunyuan Life and Death Sect has a powerful name, but it's not a top-tier sect with a supreme being presiding over it; rather, it's a large sect with a hegemon-level existence.

The most powerful force among the Qingyu human race is undoubtedly the "Supreme Hall," composed of the supreme beings of the entire human race, and known as the "place where the human race's fortune gathers." Next are the various war zones and the army.

However, those areas in the war zones are also under the control of various supreme leaders. The plagiarism rate among high-level personnel and those in the Supreme Hall exceeds 90%, indicating a complex interdependence.

Below that are the various large regions that divide the human territory. Each region is measured in "tens of millions of miles" in length and width, and contains a main human city, as well as countless large and small cities.

Yes, the Azure Domain does not have the division of "kingdoms".

The ruler of the main city is the supreme being, and the ruler of the great cities is the overlord. The supreme being mentioned here is largely the same as the one mentioned above.

[Large regions include the Vast Ocean of Waves, Hangtian Territory, and Sunset Cliff, while some large regions lack a supreme ruler and are thus considered "weak regions."]

Aside from the numerous cities, the remaining forces are relatively free sects. Only a very small number of sects have Supreme Realm experts, and many large sects only have experts at the Third Realm.

[Because most Supreme Beings originated from official cities/lower realms and rose to power in human war zones, their background is "human," while Supreme Beings from sects are relatively few.]

Here, a sect is like a "city" that doesn't need to manage its citizens.
