Qiu Jianhan was taken aback, rolling his eyes inwardly.
You're asking me about this? How would I know?
Besides … what's the use of being strict and impartial?!
"Your Majesty, why do you say so? This old official does not understand Your Majesty's meaning. Please enlighten me," Qiu Jianhan said.
"Is Supreme Cloud determined to kill him?" The emperor asked, "Is it possible to let him go?"
Qiu Jianhan's forehead was sweating. "How would this old official know?"
"Ask for me," the emperor said without hesitation.
Qiu Jianhan was stunned. "This old official … where should I ask?"
Ask for you? Who can help me ask then? Don't you know that Supreme Cloud has always been elusive? Only he can find someone. Who can find him?
The emperor said, "This is settled then. Go and ask. Ol 'second has given up everything, he has nothing left. Why must he be so ruthless? No matter what, he is still my blood. "
Qiu Jianhan wanted to say more, but His Majesty had already asked him to leave. "Go, go. I know you have a way. I believe in you."
Qiu Jianhan left the palace gate in bewilderment.
This matter … How should he explain it?
Although it was not common for an emperor to encounter unreasonable officials, it was still a common occurrence. For example, Emperor of Yutang's three most trusted officials, Qiu Jianhan, Leng Daoyin, and Fang Qingtian, were all shrewd with age and eventually became the perfect example of rogues.
Therefore, the Emperor of Yutang had a way to deal with rogues. Furthermore, he had even more ways to deal with other rogues!
What was the most effective way to deal with rogues?
Rogues usually had the upper hand, but when rogues met rogues, it was a matter of who was more roguish!
His Majesty was saying, "I don't want to be reasonable, so what if I don't want to be reasonable?" Qiu Jianhan was very, very tired mentally.
As the saying went, a hero's background was not important, while a roguish's age was not important. Now, Qiu Jianhan really wanted to say that a roguish's background was not important at all!
What should a courtier do when encountering an unreasonable and hooligan emperor?
"Sigh …"
Qiu Jianhan truly felt as if he had aged decades in this afternoon. He sighed endlessly when he got home, feeling helpless and helpless.
Old Gangster Qiu was truly at a loss. He wanted to give in and compromise, but could he really ask?
That was clearly impossible!
At such a delicate time, he believed that the Emperor had long since paid attention to his every move. Even if he went to the toilet to take a bath or change his clothes, he would still be closely watched.
If he were to look for Yun Yang now, the only outcome would be to expose Yun Yang. There was no such thing as a fluke.
If Supreme Cloud's identity was exposed, Qiu Jianhan dared not imagine what would happen next.
Therefore, when he returned home, other than sighing and feeling helpless, he did not do anything else.
Then, he sighed inwardly. Once it came to the matter of his own bloodline, even the wisest emperor would be blinded by a leaf. Did the Emperor of Yutang really not know the possible consequences of exposing Supreme Cloud's identity?
He obviously knew, but he still chose to force himself to think of a solution. He was still willing to believe that Supreme Cloud had the ability to deal with any crisis. Currently, his priority was to save his son's life, even if … his son was not worth saving!
As a ruler, as a parent, there were many things that one could not help but be selfish, even when they knew the truth.
Old Gangster Qiu, as a subject, understood this, but he could only sigh helplessly.
…
Compared to Old Marshal Qiu's helplessness, this period of time was a rare period of relaxation for Yun Yang. After the incident, everything had been settled. For a time, there was nothing to worry about. His country was at peace, and he was at ease.
Therefore, he was left to polish his martial arts skills in the Residence of Yun.
It had become a routine for him to spar with Ji Lingxi every day, at least three to five times a day. Although Yun Yang's cultivation base was improving with each passing day, the Endless Divine Art was progressing steadily, and he had Emmie's return as well as the help of his cheat, it was still insignificant compared to Ji Lingxi's improvement. Ji Lingxi did not even need to use the red light shield now; she could beat Yun Yang into submission with her own cultivation base alone.
In spite of this, Yun Yang was not discouraged. He would rest and recuperate immediately when he was defeated, studying his techniques in between. When he had recovered and felt that he had improved, he would fight Ji Lingxi again.
Ji Lingxi did not have much interest in such a contest in the beginning. After all, there was a great disparity between them. Her cultivation base had truly improved by leaps and bounds. No matter how flawless Yun Yang's techniques were, it was difficult for him to escape defeat when faced with an unparalleled force that was difficult to defend against. However, as they fought, she grew more and more spirited.
After all, Ji Lingxi's cultivation base was growing too rapidly. Her state of mind, especially in actual combat, was far from being able to match it. Although Yun Yang's attack was' weak ', his recovery ability was astounding. He was the perfect sparring partner for Ji Lingxi to completely absorb the sudden increase in cultivation base and use it for her own. In addition, Ji Lingxi also wanted to see how long her strange method of cultivation base growth would last and how far it would go before it was complete.
Now, Ji Lingxi could feel that her current cultivation base had very likely surpassed the level of Dao realm!
As for the known cultivation realm in this world, it only stopped at the ninth tier of Dao realm.
However, this knowledge was still not enough. Even though she had obviously surpassed the limits of this world, how could she confirm and proceed to the next step? What was the specific realm?
There was no way forward.
Ji Lingxi did not know anything about this, neither did Yun Yang. In fact, no one in the Residence of Yun knew. Yun Xiaoyao, Lao Mei, Fang Mofei … none of them knew.
Yun Yang had asked the ten kings of the Yama Underworld about this, but it was a pity that the ten Yama Kings were clueless about it as well. Instead, they had promised to ask on their master's behalf when he came out of his closed-door cultivation. Such a high-end question could only be answered clearly by those seniors and experts who were above the pinnacle.
Yun Yang did not mind. After all, he had always thought that Ling Xiaozui and the rest would be back in a few days anyway. They should know about the level above Dao realm.
If such a thing were to happen, perhaps it was the first time it had happened in this world. She had broken through the highest level that a cultivator could reach in this world, yet she did not know where she should go on the road ahead …
That was not right. Although Ji Lingxi did not know the name of the road ahead, nor did she know where it led to, she was still walking on this path resolutely … She should be striding forward at an extremely high speed …
Such a cultivation method was not intoxicating, but rather intoxicating!
