”Of course not, mother. Mother, you didn't see it. It's fat, dead fat.” Xiao You said in disdain. Xiao You who was playing with Zhu Er outside could not help but sneeze and shake his head.
”Do you want to take it with you to the Nangong Academy?” Shui Qinan asked.
”Of course! It is my contracted Spirit Beast and we have to train together. ” Xiao You said with a wry smile. I heard that all the disciples in the academy like to go train in the forest. When the time comes, they will throw this little guy into the forest. When Xiao You thought about how the other Spirit Beast would chase him everywhere, he wanted to laugh, but when he really started to go to the forest, he realized that he was overthinking it. Not a single one of the Spirit Beast dared to appear in front of him, but that was all later.
”Alright then.” Shui Qinan let out a breath of relief. Leaving her here to fight with Zhu Er everyday was something she could do nothing about.
On the second day, Shui Qinan went to the palace.
The emperor was lying on the dragon bed, waiting for his latest concubine to come and sleep. He then heard the Eunuch Zhou rush in and say, ”Your Majesty, the young lady is here.”
The emperor suddenly sat up, looked at the Eunuch Zhou with a headache, and said, ”She said he has something to say.”
”The girl said … They said they wanted three hundred thousand Purplish Goldstone. ” Eunuch Zhou cautiously looked at the emperor as he spoke.
”Three hundred thousand Purplish Goldstone, why didn't she go snatch it!” The emperor could not help but shout in anger. He suddenly remembered that Shui Qinan might still be able to hear him at the palace. The emperor reprimanded her in a low voice, ”Don't you think you can find a reason to send her away?”
”Your majesty, big miss doesn't want to enter ah. This servant thinks that big miss won't leave until she obtains the Purplish Goldstone.” Eunuch Zhou said with a bitter face.
”Give it to her!” Tell her to leave quickly! ” The emperor was truly unwilling to give Shui Qinan so much money. He had already given Shui Qinan one fifth of his treasury, but even if Shui Qinan did not leave, he would not be at ease in the Imperial Palace.
”The girl also said … ”And you're saying …” Eunuch Zhou looked at the emperor with a stammer.
”There's more? ”What is it?” The emperor asked with an ashen face.
”Young lady wants the Flaming Land's map and the key.” Eunuch Zhou said, the map may not be anything special, but the key to opening Flaming Land was the Imperial Imperial Jade Seal.
”How did she know about Flaming Land? Could it be that she wants to go and subdue that divine beast?” The emperor said contemptuously. Half a month ago, the Flaming Land emitted bursts of divine light. The foreign cultivators were certain that there were divine beasts lurking about, but this divine beast seemed to have turned into a devil and many people had died under its claws.
What the Emperor didn't understand was that every country had a special road to the Flaming Land, but this road required a special key to open. How did Shui Qinan know he had the map and the key?
”It seems like His Highness the crown prince said it. Then, your majesty, is this a gift or not?” Eunuch Zhou asked.
”Here!” She has the entire palace under her control, so what's the use of keeping the Imperial Jade Seal! ” The emperor roared in anger. No emperor was as aggrieved as him. His own son actually elbowed his way out to help that witch!
”Yes, yes, yes.” Eunuch Zhou nodded and left.
