2530 A Battle Of Wits And Courage 4 (2/2)

He complimented her, but only verbally. He did not give her a firm tap on the shoulder, like how he used to.

There was a look of despair in her eyes, but she decided to fulfill her role and continued to report, ”I have some news from other cities. Recently, some masters of Kung Fu have been making their appearances quite frequently around the administrative centers. The rain of blood should have happened two days ago in Leguo City, but it did not. Because of that, people are ready to make trouble. More and more have joined forces to search for the Star Formation in other cities. There seems to be a massive uprising.”

Yun Yanli was not quite bothered. ”They are nothing but a bunch of fools. What damage can they do? Relax. When they finally see the wedding, they will believe in everything I say.”

The young palace master thought about it for a moment and asked faintly, ”Master, are you really going to marry Gu Xijiu? Didn't you say that the wedding was only baiting Di Fuyi to show up?”

”That is only one of the many reasons. I am still going to marry her.”

She was his biggest obsession, so he needed to make sure that she belonged to him. He was even more excited at the thought that she used to be Di Fuyi's woman.

The young palace master's face turned pale. ”What… What about Die-Er? You have promised to marry me.”

Slightly surprised, Yun Yanli reassured, ”Don't worry. You have my word. I shall not treat you unfairly. When I finally reclaim my throne as the Emperor Immortal, I will definitely make you my Imperial Concubine Immortal.”

”What about Gu Xijiu? She has never stopped plotting against you. Her heart never belonged to you. Are you still going to appoint her as your Empress Immortal?”

Yun Yanli was obviously annoyed. ”Ming Die, you have just crossed the line! Who do you think you are to meddle with my personal affairs?”

Intimidated, Ming Die quickly apologized for her misbehavior and said nothing more.

Yun Yanli needed her, so he would try not to upset her. He said some comforting words to her and made a promise that he would marry her the same way as he did with Gu Xijiu in a month.
