A Good Romance

Ling Han clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "This junior pays his respects to the Rain Emperor."
He called himself a junior, so he naturally performed the etiquette of a martial artist, and did not need to kneel. And if he paid his respects as a subject, then he had to kneel; these were two completely different standpoints.
The Rain Emperor did not blame him, but instead revealed a sliver of a smile, and said, "Young man, you are very arrogant!"
At his feet, Xu Ke Xin was startled awake. She opened her eyes and looked towards Ling Han, her pretty face revealing a sliver of surprise. She had clearly seen this young man before, and at that time, she even had a sliver of killing intent, but did not act.
She did not think that this person actually had the right to pay respects to the Rain Emperor; this was very shocking.
"Your Majesty is the one who is awe-inspiring, defeating that bullsh * t attendant of the Winter Moon Sect with a single punch, making this junior's blood boil." Ling Han gave a small bit of flattery.
"Hahahaha!" The Rain Emperor laughed loudly, shook his head, and said, "Do you think that if you speak a little sweeter, I can forget the trouble you caused?"
Xu Ke Xin could not help but be shocked. She had been by the Rain Emperor's side for a few years, and had almost never seen the Rain Emperor laugh like this, and use a teasing tone to speak to a young man; she could not believe it.
Ling Han said seriously, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
The Rain Emperor humphed, and said, "No matter how angry I am, I would not dare to do anything to a Black Grade high level alchemist!"
Xu Ke Xin's beautiful eyes involuntarily widened. A Black Grade high level alchemist was right in front of her, and this young man … how could it be possible? But how could the Rain Emperor speak carelessly? She had to believe it even if she did not want to.
Ling Han laughed, and said, "I have not thanked Your Majesty for helping me out of my predicament. I will definitely repay you in the future!" Since the Rain Emperor pointed out his identity as a Black Grade high level alchemist, he spoke to the Rain Emperor as an alchemist, and in terms of status, he was only slightly inferior.
The Rain Emperor used his finger to lightly tap on the armrest, and said, "Eldest, Third, and Seventh, you've met them all, who do you think is more suitable to inherit the throne?"
Should I ask him this question? Ling Han thought about it and said, "Your Majesty should have already made up your mind. I don't dare to say anything."
"You are a Black Grade high level alchemist, and both Fu Yuan Sheng and Wu Song Lin are very obedient to you. If you disagree with me and encourage alchemists not to sell their pills to the citizens of Rain Country in the future, then wouldn't the country be destroyed in a day?" the Rain Emperor said calmly.
Ling Han could not help but break out in a cold sweat. This hat was a little too big. The Son of Heaven was also temperamental. If he thought that he was a disaster and would threaten the imperial power, then no matter who he was, he would directly eliminate him.
His spirit was highly focused, and he would enter into the Black Tower the moment there was any abnormal movement. At most, the Rain Emperor would discover that he had a secret technique that allowed him to teleport instantly, or that he could conceal himself. Even if he had to reveal a bit of his secret, it was still better than losing his life.
"Rest your little heart safely in your chest. If I wanted to kill you, you would not have been able to walk all the way here alive," the Rain Emperor said calmly.
Ling Han laughed mischievously. On the surface, he breathed a sigh of relief, but in his heart, he did not relax at all. He would not easily trust another person.
"Ling Han, what should I do with you?" the Rain Emperor said. "An alchemist that can concoct Foundation Building Pill … Rain Country might even be thrown into chaos because of you …"
Xu Ke Xin finally could not help but cough. The Foundation Building Pill that had caused such a commotion in the Imperial City was actually concocted by Ling Han … inconceivable, inconceivable … how old was he, how could he possibly concoct Foundation Building Pill?
Ling Han thought for a moment, then said, "In the future, if I concoct Foundation Building Pill again, I will prioritize giving half of it to the Imperial Family."
"Good!" The Rain Emperor finally smiled, and the tense atmosphere instantly dissipated.
Truly, being in the emperor's company was like being in the company of a tiger. The emperor was temperamental, and would kill at the slightest provocation, making it difficult for one not to be nervous.
Ling Han could not help but curse silently. If he still had the cultivation he had in his last life, he would definitely hang the Rain Emperor up and give him a good thrashing. He actually dared to scare him … but at this moment, he could only smile bitterly, and say, "I was almost scared to death by His Imperial Majesty …"
The Rain Emperor had laid the groundwork, and then said a threat. Actually, it was all for the sake of the Foundation Building Pill.
"Haha, you will definitely become an Earth Grade alchemist in the future. Even if I see you, I will have to welcome you with open arms. Now that your wings are not fully grown yet, I naturally have to beat you a little, bully you a little, or there will not be a chance in the future," the Rain Emperor said with a smile.
Ling Han also smiled. Actually, the Rain Emperor was also a humorous person. It did not matter whether he was willing or not to make you feel amused.
"Eldest Brother and Third Brother are still lacking in terms of temperament. They have ambition, but do not have the corresponding vigor …" the Rain Emperor spoke up, giving his sons his evaluation. "Seventh Brother is also a little too cautious and cautious. He is more than capable of defending his achievements, but lacks the ability to advance."
He paused for a moment, then said, "You should be supporting Seventh Brother. With the help of a future Earth Grade alchemist, I can also retire with peace of mind. I have decided, after my sixtieth birthday, I will pass the throne to Seventh Brother, and from then on, I will focus on Martial Art. "
Xu Ke Xin was greatly shocked, and her beautiful face paled. She could not help but call out, "Your Imperial Majesty …"
The Rain Emperor stretched out a hand and pressed down, stopping her words. He said, "You should also leave …"
Ling Han did not pay attention to the two of them talking in riddles, and said, "Congratulations, Your Imperial Majesty."
"Why are you congratulating me?" the Rain Emperor asked with a smile.
"Putting aside the affairs of the nation, Your Imperial Majesty will be able to focus on breaking through to the Flower Blossom Tier, and from then on transcending mortality and entering sainthood!" Ling Han said with a smile.
The Rain Emperor's eyes involuntarily lit up, and instantly, his aura surged like the waves of the sea, and he said, "You are actually able to guess my cultivation level?"
Ling Han smiled slightly, and said in a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing, "I am an alchemist, so my divine sense is much stronger than that of ordinary people."
The Rain Emperor nodded. This young man was indeed unique. Otherwise, he would not have been able to concoct alchemical pills close to Earth Grade when he was only in the Poly Tier. He stretched out a finger to tap on the armrest, and said, "Half a month later, I will hold a birthday banquet, and at the same time, there will be a martial arts tournament to celebrate my birthday."
Ling Han did not know what these words meant, so he only nodded, and did not reply.
"The prize for the person who wins first place in the martial arts tournament is a treasure from the inner treasury," the Rain Emperor said slowly.
Ling Han's mind instantly trembled.
The Eye of Truth!
The Rain Emperor was already half a step into the Flower Blossom Tier, and added with the help of power of the nation, he was like a god in Rain Country. His sight and hearing were almost omnipresent, and presumably, the few deals that the Eldest and Third Imperial Princes made with him were not hidden from this Rain Emperor.
Ling Han's heart tightened. Then what about the matter of the Liu Sisters? Strictly speaking, he was shielding the murderer who tried to assassinate the Imperial Concubine, which was no different from rebellion.
En, he probably would not know.
The Rain Emperor was only human, after all. Even if he broke through to the Flower Blossom Tier, he would only transcend mortals, and was still far from becoming a god. He could only focus his limited attention on a few important people.
For example, his three sons who were qualified to compete for the throne, and their every move definitely could not be hidden from him. He was secretly comparing which one was more suitable to inherit the throne.
Thus, the matter of Ling Han and the Eldest and Third Imperial Princes discussing how to steal the Eye of Truth naturally could not be hidden from this Rain Emperor.
Now that the Rain Emperor took out the Eye of Truth as a reward, the unspoken meaning was, 'I am very clear about your little tricks, and as long as you are willing to listen to me, there will naturally be benefits for you.'
As expected of the ruler of a nation, he was so adept at manipulating power.
