An Unexpected Disaster
"This, this …"
This time, even Yan Nan 'er was stuttering. She didn't expect Luo Zheng to take out bunches of the Magnetic Fire Ginseng that even Prince Rong couldn't find.
"Big brother, this is enough. If there are too many, I'm afraid even my father can't afford them."
Rongyue was overjoyed and joked.
"Haha, you can just give me a few of the elixirs you refined."
Luo Zheng smiled nonchalantly.
"Mm." Rongyue nodded vigorously.
The three of them chatted for a while more, and Rongyue could not wait to refine the elixirs.
"General Luo Zheng, King Rong invites you over."
Luo Zheng was about to leave when a servant came over to inform him.
Luo Zheng was not surprised to hear that King Rong wanted to see him. He nodded and followed the servant into a magnificent golden hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw King Rong sitting on a golden throne in the middle of the hall. King Rong's deep eyes were sizing him up.
"Greetings, King Rong."
Luo Zheng cupped his hands and bowed graciously.
"No need to bow. You didn't give me face in front of everyone last time. What's the use of being respectful now?"
King Rong snorted and waved his hand to dismiss the servants. He pointed to the seat below and said, "Sit down and talk."
"Luo Zheng was rude last time. Your Highness is magnanimous and did not blame me."
Luo Zheng laughed inwardly and quickly took the opportunity to give King Rong a way out.
"Hmph, at least you know how to talk."
King Rong did not fuss over it. Instead, he stared at Luo Zheng from head to toe, sizing him up.
"What are you looking at, Your Highness? Are there flowers growing on my body? "
Luo Zheng rubbed his nose and asked. It was uncomfortable to be stared at by a peerless expert like King Rong.
"I want to see where you came from. In such a short time, you've offended so many wealthy families. You even dared to kill people from the super families, ancient clans, and even the royal family!"
King Rong said.
Luo Zheng broke into a smile, not knowing how to explain himself.
It was likely that King Rong only knew the tip of the iceberg regarding the number of disciples that Luo Zheng had killed.
"Hmph, but the War Emperor also thinks highly of you. His Majesty actually didn't object to the matter of you becoming sworn brothers with the Jade Spirit Princess. I reckon that it won't be long before this matter is announced to the world. At that time, these people won't dare to openly make a move on you."
Looking at Luo Zheng's nonchalant expression, King Rong had no choice but to say this.
"Moreover, as far as I know, His Majesty may also marry an Imperial Princess to you. However, it seems that the candidate has not been decided yet, and I can't find out."
King Rong narrowed his eyes and said.
"What? Don't tell me it's Yu Ling? "
Luo Zheng was scared out of his wits. This news was too frightening.
"Of course not. However, the cause of this matter is also related to Yuling. I heard that the Royal Princess almost died in the Blood Demon Space this time. Was it you who used the holy spring water you obtained to save her? "
King Rong asked.
"That is indeed the case." Luo Zheng nodded.
"Do you know that His Majesty the War Emperor loves Yuling the most because of her Ice Lotus Body? Not only did you use the holy spring water to save her, but you also transformed her body, making her much stronger than her original Ice Lotus Body. I guess that's why His Majesty the War Emperor decided to marry an Imperial Princess to you. "
King Rong said in a low voice.
"Is this special body really that important? Marrying an Imperial Princess to me? Can I refuse? "
Luo Zheng held his forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"The importance of this special body is not something that you can understand with your current cultivation..."
King Rong did not explain.
There was nothing Luo Zheng could do. He could only think about it.
The news that the War Emperor was going to marry an Imperial Princess to him came from Rong Wang's mouth, so it was most likely true.
To others, this was like ten billion taels of gold falling from the sky.
Logically speaking, the Imperial Princess was the War Emperor's blood descendant. Although her talent was not as good as Yuling's, it should not be too bad. As for the descendants of the royal family, their bloodline was excellent and their appearance was not bad.
Moreover, once Luo Zheng became the emperor's son-in-law, which of the noble families would dare to openly deal with him? Even if they wanted to use assassination methods, they would have to consider whether they could bear the consequences of their actions being exposed.
However, Luo Zheng did not think so.
Right now, he had a feeling that a calamity was about to descend upon him. The crux of the matter was that this calamity was not easy to block or avoid.
"Brat, don't pretend to be innocent after getting such a good deal. If you dare to disobey the War Emperor's orders, you should clean your neck!"
King Rong glared at Luo Zheng, his expression saying, "Do you think the War Emperor is as easy to bully as me?"
"Uh, King Rong, can you help me find out which Imperial Princess the War Emperor is going to marry me?"
Luo Zheng looked like he was about to be pushed into a fire pit.
"What do you want to do?" King Rong asked curiously.
"I want to marry her and make her hate me." Luo Zheng rubbed his nose and said.
"Only you can think of something like that."
King Rong said in annoyance. Then, he glared fiercely. "By the way, brat, now that Rongyue has given her heart to you, what are you going to do? Are you going to abandon my daughter after you become the Emperor's son-in-law? "
Luo Zheng blinked and said, "Lord Rong, why don't you tell the War Emperor that I'm already engaged to Rongyue, so I can't be his son-in-law. How about that?"
"Brat, you want to trick me? Dream on!"
