Chapter 388: Guess Whats the Perfect Method? (2/2)

All the secrets have been solved, but there was simply no clue on how to solve the problem. King Yunyang's misconduct was real, and the ma.s.sacre on Fog Root Mountain had also gradually made its impact. In this context, the trauma on the stele was basically irreversible—although it would not become worse in a short time. There were still surviving parts of the binding power on Yunkongjun, which rendered him incapable to completely break away—but without the constraint of the stele, w.a.n.g Lu basically has no way to deal with this near Deity Stage monster.

After he pondered it over, w.a.n.g Lu felt that he was stuck. There was already a vague clue in his heart, but it was blurred.

However, it was normal to encounter difficulty in reasoning. Thus, w.a.n.g Lu wasn't anxious. After bidding his farewell to King Yunyang, w.a.n.g Lu simply strolled in the royal palace like it was his own courtyard.

He has two days more of buffer time, so he didn't need to be anxious. Not to mention that as the first person who entered this immortal dream land it didn't matter if he was defeated, w.a.n.g Lu was also not so arrogant to think himself capable to win in every endeavor—in any case, Aya was not around, so losing once or twice was not a big deal.

While pondering, w.a.n.g Lu had inadvertently run into the private boudoir of Princess Yunyue. Because of the previous exhortation of King Yunyang, the palace guards didn't dare to block him and just let w.a.n.g Lu, a man, enter a woman's boudoir.

When w.a.n.g Lu became aware, he was already by Princess Yunyue's bedside and once again saw the Princess. It was late at night, yet she was still awake. Her pair of unusually large eyes were quietly watching him.

”I am going to die, right?”

Under the ravage of violent poison, although the Princess has lost the ordinary person's figure, her voice was still brisk and sweet, but now it sounded very weak.

w.a.n.g Lu said with a smile, ”Yes, you're going to die, but why does it sound like you're happy?”

Although Princess Yunyue was good at hiding her feelings, before a Peak Xudan Stage cultivator, it was difficult for her to hide her inner feelings. After waking up, aware that her vitality would soon be exhausted, Yunyue somewhat felt relieved.

”Because if I die, my father wouldn't do any wrong anymore.” Yunyue softly smiled. ”Father is actually a very kind and generous person. However, because of the matter regarding my mother and I, it is always easy for him to go to the extreme. I know that this is not his fault, but I don't want him to make this mistake again.”

A bit surprised, w.a.n.g Lu asked, ”You actually have such a high awareness? At a young age you're already indifferent to life and death, little girl, you're very promising.”

Yunyue became somewhat gloomy. ”How could I possibly be indifferent? I certainly hope that I can live a long life, always be healthy, and even be young and beautiful forever. But if I can't control my emotion at this time, what would my father do? He withstands more pressure than I am, and he shoulders a more arduous duty, I simply can't add more pressure on him.”

The more he heard her, the more surprised he was. The eyes before him that were being eaten away by the poison unexpectedly seemed to emit rays of light.

”But things that I can do are too little. I have tried my best to oppose it, but father still went on with it. So I thought that maybe my death would truly free him.”

w.a.n.g Lu said, ”Do you think that after you died, he would just give you up like that? He has lost all of his loved ones, so it would be normal if he does something strange.”

”Therefore, my immortal elder brother, may I ask you a favor?”

w.a.n.g Lu laughed in spite trying not to. ”Immortal elder brother… very well, since you have called me your elder brother, I'll hear it first.”

”After I die, please make my father forget about me. I heard that immortals have a spell that makes people forget their worries, can you… make him forget about me and my mother? Father is actually still very young. If he can marry again, he can definitely continue the royal bloodline. But he has always been clinging to the past and always refuses to accept a new woman.”

w.a.n.g Lu sighed but couldn't help nodding. ”You, this child, are really whimsical. But, from your point of view, this is indeed a brilliant and effective way. I do have a spell that let mortals forget their worries, but cultivators could not freely cast spells arbitrarily, just like the rule of a king is limited. But now, the main contradiction is not really about your father's personal life, instead…”

Before he could continue, a flash went through his brain. At this time, his gaze once again landed on Princess Yunyue. More and more he felt that although this girl looked exactly like an alien, her heart was actually more human than most people.

Perhaps because she grew up in the palace, she has never experienced the danger of humans. However, goodness out of naivety was not in any way cheap. Good is good, virtue is virtue, no one is justified to do evil after experiencing the vicissitudes of life. In the eyes of w.a.n.g Lu, this Princess Yunyue has become the key to reverse the situation.

”Mm, I think I now have the perfect solution to all the problems.”

Princess Yunyue blinked her eyes curiously and wanted to open her mouth to speak. However, this time, she no longer has the strength to speak.

w.a.n.g Lu, of course, could see her doubts. But he did not immediately answer, and just patted her head. ”You better rest first, tomorrow night, everything will be clear.”

With that, w.a.n.g Lu left the princess' private chamber and once again woken up King Yunyang who has just fallen asleep.

”You don't need to sleep anymore this night. I want you to prepare a few things for me, and before noon, I want you to accompany me on a trip.”
