Chapter 259: Chapter 121: Specializing in Rebellion, Going to Ask for a Kiss

Shuimo retorted, ”The Lingge Sub-Branch only has a few thousand people. Compared to the Saint Monarch’s safe return, which is more important?”

Huangfu Song: ”???”

’Ah, this...’

’You... The operation I’ve spent decades building... you’re ready to throw it all away just like that?’

Huangfu Song’s mind was in turmoil.

Shuimo said lightly, ”Once the Saint Monarch reclaims his position, you will have performed a monumental service. With me putting in a good word for you, you’ll forever be the First Dharma Protector. As long as the Saint Monarch wills it, what does a mere Lingge Sub-Branch matter?”

Huangfu Song was dazed for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, ”Fine! Leave this to me!”

Though Shuimo’s words were infuriating, he couldn’t deny the logic in every single one.

Now that Xiang Tiange was dead, as long as the Saint Monarch fused with his past life’s Primordial Spirit, it would only take a few years for him to return to his former peak. Even if he didn’t complete the Eighth Transformation, he would still be the greatest master in the Great Yu.

’What wouldn’t I be able to obtain by following him?’

’Besides, I really have been too hasty. What I should be doing now is not rushing to identify the Saint Monarch, but quietly gathering every clue I can to arrive at the most definitive answer in the end.’

’I must stop myself from jumping to conclusions!’

As for now...

Huangfu Song frowned. ”This Zhao Ci is unreasonably strong right now, and his relationship with Gu Xiangzhu is abnormally close. If he’s not the Saint Monarch, the two of them teaming up would pose a massive threat to the real Saint Monarch.”

Shuimo’s expression darkened. ”Until we are certain he is not the Saint Monarch, you are not to do anything to harm him!”

Huangfu Song laughed. ”But we can drive a wedge between him and Gu Xiangzhu. After all, they aren’t truly mother and son! If we let this continue, Zhao Ci will only grow closer to Gu Xiangzhu.

It’s true the Saint Monarch despises that bitch Gu Xiangzhu.

But if Zhao Ci is the Saint Monarch, he’s constantly entangled with Gu Xiangzhu in this life.

How can you be sure that after the Saint Monarch reclaims his position, the memories of this life won’t change his feelings for Gu Xiangzhu?

Miss!

You don’t want that to happen either, do you?”

Shuimo’s expression turned incredibly grim. After agonizing for a long moment, she gritted her teeth and said, ”I’ll leave this matter to you. But you may only drive a wedge between them. Before his identity is confirmed, you must not, under any circumstances, harm Zhao Ci.”

”Rest assured!”

Huangfu Song pondered for a moment before speaking. ”Actually, there is another method that can be used as supporting evidence to identify the Saint Monarch.”

Shuimo asked, ”What is it?”

Huangfu Song took a deep breath and slowly uttered two words: ”Paradise Gu!”

A tremor ran through Shuimo’s eyes. ”You found it?”

”Of course!”

Huangfu Song nodded with a smile.

Shuimo hesitated. Although the Saint Monarch had cast aside nearly all his memories, some things within his very soul would never change.

This Paradise Gu could indeed serve as supporting evidence.

But...

She said in a low voice, ”Hold on to it for now. Do not use it unless it is absolutely necessary.”

...

「Tenth Prince’s Mansion.」

Everyone was happily eating a meal.

Of all the princely estates, the Tenth Prince’s Mansion was the least worried about money.

Zhao Ci had specially hired the best chefs.

Whenever there was a chance, they would all eat together.

This was the best way to foster camaraderie.

After all, the Mansion Feuds were quite brutal. Only with sufficient trust could they unleash their greatest combat strength.

This in itself was one of the purposes of the Mansion Feuds.

However...

[Current Wish of Zhang Da Yong (Huangfu Song)]: Drive a wedge between Zhao Ci and that bitch, Gu Xiangzhu. Reward for Completion: Insight +1000, Cause Trouble Talisman x1.

Zhao Ci: ”???”

’Goddammit!’

’So you like driving wedges, do you?’

’You want to drive us apart?’

’Fine. I’m going to get even closer to my auntie.’

’I’m going to go demand a kiss in a bit!’

’It’s all about being rebellious!’
