Chapter 376 – Six Great Demonic Beasts (1/2)

Being bestowed rewards for his success would be inevitable. Lei Yu really wasn’t interested in it one bit but he still had to give them some face. Even if he wasn’t someone from this world, he still had to give the Emperor of this place a little bit of face, right?

“Your majesty, this one has made a strict oath to never kneel before anyone. I hope that your majesty will forgive this one!” Lei Yu cupped his hands while observing the appearance of this world’s emperor.

Lei Yu was somewhat disappointed with the guy’s appearance. Although the aura of the emperor seems a bit dignified and powerful, his looks were lacking quite a bit. The emperor’s small beady eyes made him weak looking and the faint moustache lacked any majestic qualities. And the golden dragon robes on him looked like it didn’t really fit his body structure.

“No need for such ceremony! Someone come and bestow him a seat!”

That demonic empress wasn’t here but Princess Luminous was standing right next to the emperor. Her eyes were staring at Lei Yu unblinkingly making him feel a little awkward.

Lei Yu declined the rewards of official titles and only accepted some purple crystal stones. If an ordinary person was in his place, just these crystal stones alone would give them a life filled with wealth. But how could it move Lei Yu’s heart? What Lei Yu really wanted to do right now was to interrogate that Empress Guo to see what kind of demonic beast she was.

“Since Mister doesn’t want to become an Official, what requests do you have instead?” Asked the emperor.

“I only wish that all the doctors who have failed to be released, and the ones that have died to be given a ceremonious blessing so that they can rest in peace. That’s all I really want.” Lei Yu softly replied.

“Mister’s medical ethics are really devoted and has a benevolent heart. It will be granted!”

Seeing how Lei Yu had refused to become an official, the face on Princess Luminous had turned slightly depressed. This clearly meant that Lei Yu was unwilling to stay in the imperial palace for any extended amount of time.

“Mister shouldn’t leave in case this one’s sickness comes back, then Mister can help me heal it again.” Princess Luminous spoke out.

Lei Yu smiled while shaking his head. “Princess doesn’t need to worry because your sickness has been completely healed and will not relapse.”

Princess Luminous wanted to say something more when a soldier ran into the hall and said: “Your majesty, the Empress wishes to request that the Mister go to the Tranquil Palace to receive his rewards!”

The Emperor smiled, “It looks like the Empress has received news of this. That’s good; Mister should go over and receive some more rewards.”

A faint grin appeared on Lei Yu’s lips since this was exactly what he wanted. He then bowed before leaving.

Inside the Tranquil Palace.

“Everyone else withdraw!” Empress Guo waved her hand and the palace maids present all started filing out leaving Lei Yu and her alone.

Others may not know her daughter’s illness but Empress Guo was very clear about it. Let’s not question how Lei Yu was able to cure Princess Luminous yet, and ask what happened to the internal energy she had shot into Lei Yu. This was very strange for her.

Without waiting for Empress Guo to start questioning him, Lei Yu was the first to ask: “What is your purpose here?”

Hearing Lei Yu’s words, Empress Guo became startled and asked with widen eyes: “Who are you?!”

“It’s fine to be a demonic beast but you’re so narrow-minded and malicious; who knows what type of beast you have transformed from. But with your mere strength at the late Soul Splitting stage, you better not play mind games with me or else I’ll destroy you this instant!” As Lei Yu’s voice faded, his body exploded out with a strong aura. This aura actually caused Empress Guo to have difficulty breathing and her face to pale.

“Spare me Immortal! Spare me Immortal!” Empress Guo gasped out while revealing a terrified expression.

Lei Yu retrieved his aura and coldly stared at the demon empress. “Answer my questions: What is your goal for being here and what kind of world is this?”
