After staying on Earth for two and a half days, Ren Baqian returned to Dayao once the time was up.
As soon as he appeared, he saw that he was surrounded by a wall, or rather, a group of people. Dozens of burly men wearing helmets and armor widened their eyes in surprise when they saw Ren Baqian suddenly appearing and the huge box that was bigger than him. He also widened his eyes and looked at his surroundings with a look of surprise.
"Sir Ren, Her Majesty wants you to return to the palace immediately." Xin Zhe, the commander of the imperial guards, came in through a gap in the crowd of burly men.
"Oh." Ren Baqian nodded. It seemed like these people were waiting for him.
"How's the assassin?" Ren Baqian asked.
"They have been dismembered by Her Majesty and suppressed in the four corners of Lan City," Xin Zhe replied.
Ren Baqian grinned. The empress was avenging him.
"What about Xu Wei and the rest?" Ren Baqian asked again. He didn't know how those guards were doing.
"Xu Wei, Shi Ying, Zhu Jia, Zhou Hu, and Zhou Shu died in battle. His Majesty has already sent people to send them back to the mountains for an elaborate funeral," Xin Zhe replied.
"How about the compensation?"
"According to the rules, Xu Wei will receive a hundred taels, while Shi Ying and the others will receive fifty taels each. They have already been sent back with the corpses."
"When I get back, I'll have someone send three hundred taels of silver over. If there are any children in their families, you can ask them if they are willing to study at my academy, "Ren Baqian said after some thought.
After all, this was his guard who had died to protect him. Ren Baqian felt that he could still do his best.
"Thank you, Principal Ren." Xin Zhe cupped her hands and gave him a rare smile.
Then, she saw a black iron chain sticking out of his head like a snake. It kept swaying above his head as if it was looking around. It had an enchanting posture, twisting into an S shape one moment and a B shape the next …
Everyone looked at Ren Baqian's head awkwardly.
"What are you looking at?" Ren Baqian had a puzzled look on his face. He stretched out his hand and touched the top of his head. The metal chain seemed to be startled and immediately locked itself back into place.
"Sir Ren, there was a metal chain on your head just now. It should be the Immortal-binding Rope, right?" Xin Zhe pointed at the top of Ren Baqian's head and asked thoughtfully.
She already knew what had happened that day.
Logically speaking, a Divine Weapon should dissipate with the death of its master.
Of course, there had never been a case of a Divine Weapon eloping with someone before this.
As a result, she didn't understand what was going on when she saw the Heaven-grade weapon emerge from his body.
"Ah?" Ren Baqian was shocked. That thing actually appeared by itself?
"How about now?"
"It's gone."
Ren Baqian, "…"
Ren Baqian felt that it might have felt familiar after returning to this world and came out for a breather. Although this idea was ridiculous, the Divine Weapon was a condensation of the Divine Soul, not a real life.
No matter what, he had to see the empress first.
As everyone arrived at the front of the palace, they saw more than a thousand giant goats standing quietly in the plaza in front of the palace. More than a thousand horsemen were standing beside them. Ren Baqian looked around and saw some familiar faces. They were the winged cavalry that had returned from Great Xia.
At this moment, both parties had no intention of exchanging pleasantries. Under everyone's gaze, Ren Baqian returned to the palace and headed straight for Yangxin Palace Hall.
When he entered the room, he saw the empress sitting quietly on the sofa. When she heard his voice, she turned her head and saw him. Her eyes revealed a hint of joy, but soon after, her face returned to normal.
"Your Majesty!" These two days, Ren Baqian missed the empress very much, especially after he almost froze to death while waiting for death.
"Oh, follow me into battle," the empress said. At this time, it was safer to be by her side. At the very least, such an incident wouldn't happen again.
Ren Baqian was slightly tempted, but after thinking for a while, he said, "Why don't I go to the mountains to take a look first? If it doesn't work, I will go directly to the front line to see Her Majesty. If possible, I will instruct them on what to do before going to see Her Majesty. "
The empress looked at him and said, "In that case, be careful. I left someone behind for you. Even if you encounter an ordinary Spirit Wheel expert, he can protect you."
"I'm setting off!" The empress stood up from the sofa. She had waited here until now for Ren Baqian. Once she saw him, she could leave.
"Your Majesty, be careful!" Ren Baqian cupped his hands and said.
The empress walked in front of him and looked at him carefully for a long time. Then, she pinched his chin with one hand, leaned forward slightly, and pressed her pretty face against his lips to feel the warmth of both of them.
This time, their lips pressed together for a full 10 seconds. After feeling the softness and warmth of each other's lips, the empress strode out of the palace hall.
She was wearing the set of Han attire with a golden phoenix embroidered on it that Ren Baqian had given her. Her hair was tied up in a bun with a hairpin.
The moment she walked out of Yangxin Palace Hall, her entire aura changed abruptly like a sharp sword piercing through the clouds.
"Set off!" the empress said faintly to everyone outside the palace hall.
Ren Baqian was a little dazed in the palace hall. The soft touch on his lips hadn't dissipated, but was he in the wrong position just now?
He pursed his lips and felt that it was a little sweet.
A metal chain quietly emerged from his head and twisted into an S shape. After a while, it twisted into an M shape.
When Ren Baqian walked out of the palace hall, there was already someone waiting for him outside.
"Hey, let me make this clear. Although I'm protecting you under Her Majesty's orders, I only guarantee that you will see Her Majesty alive. I can't guarantee that you won't lose an arm or a leg!"
Ren Baqian looked at the sleepy girl in front of him and was speechless.
Your Majesty, is this the guard you left for me?
"White Rabbit Creamy Candy, 10 pieces a day." Ren Baqian stretched out his palm.
"I can guarantee that you won't lose an arm or a leg."
"20 pieces!"
"I can guarantee that you will see Her Majesty in one piece." Lin Qiaole immediately perked up. She looked like a loyal guard as she patted her small chest and said.
"Let's go!"
"Where are we going?"
A moment later, Ren Baqian stood on the city wall and watched the empress's golden imperial carriage leave the city under the protection of the winged cavalry.
Below the city wall were the officials of the imperial court.
After the empress left, Tong Zhengye appeared beside Ren Baqian in a flash, patted his shoulder, and said, "It's good that Sir Ren is fine."
Ren Baqian waited until he couldn't see the empress's golden imperial carriage before turning his head and cupping his hands. "Sir Tong."
"Sir Ren, what happened after you were attacked?" Tong Zhengye asked curiously. He was more curious about how Ren Baqian disappeared with Luo Zhen's Immortal-binding Rope.
"Have you heard of the hearthstone?" Ren Baqian turned his head and asked.
"Never heard of it. What's that?" Tong Zhengye was curious and felt that he could hear some earth-shattering secret.
"There's a treasure in this world called the hearthstone. Just by rubbing it, you can travel thousands of kilometers in an instant," Ren Baqian said.
"There's actually such a treasure! I wonder if Sir Ren can broaden my horizons! "Tong Zhengye's face was full of envy. He didn't expect such a treasure to exist in this world.
Even Lin Qiaole was staring at Ren Baqian.
"To use the hearthstone, you have to eat it first and then merge it with your body. When you use it, you just have to rub your little penis. Sir Tong, do you want to see it? "Ren Baqian squinted his eyes and asked.
Tong Zhengye thought about how Ren Baqian rubbed his little penis the moment he was attacked. Then …
"Pfft!"
"I want to see it, I want to see it!" A delicate voice came from the side. Lin Qiaole was excited and wanted to see what kind of treasure the hearthstone was.
