You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

Chapter 761 (Journey to the Voidless Empire)

Tang Wei exclaimed with joy, ”That will be my cousinʼs good fortune.”

Cang Konghong didnʼt know what to say at this point. How long would he have to protect her?

Mu Ran remained silent, sitting by the bed, observing Cang Konghongʼs condition. After a while, she noticed that he had stabilised.

”Tang Wei, you should go back and rest,” Mu Ran said softly.

”Miss, Iʼll stay with you,” Tang Wei insisted.

”Itʼs okay, Iʼll take care of things here.” Mu Ran felt that Tang Wei was just being thankful for her help, which was a natural response.

Tang Wei didnʼt want to be a third wheel, so she replied, ”Alright, Miss, you should rest early too.”

Mu Ran nodded, and Tang Wei left the room, gently closing the door behind her.

Mu Ran and Cang Konghong were left alone in the room, and the atmosphere became somewhat tense. If Cang Konghong had any misgivings, Mu Ran would have trouble escaping from this situation.

Unfortunately, Cang Konghong was not the talkative type and didnʼt seem interested in romance at all. He could even bore someone to death with his lack of social skills.

Mu Ran wondered if she would like someone like Cang Konghong.

Sitting by the bed, Mu Ran observed him from time to time. She wasnʼt in love with him; it was just a sense of gratitude.

Although she hadnʼt developed romantic feelings, Cang Konghong had earned her goodwill. From a stranger to a lifesaver, that was a significant leap in Mu Ranʼs heart.

Cang Konghong didnʼt want to lie in bed any longer, and he didnʼt want a young girl to take care of him either; it was embarrassing. However, he had no choice but to endure it. The fact that Mu Ran kept observing him made him even more uncomfortable.

Mu Ran pondered who sent these people to attack her. Having ten Masters come after her meant they were not ordinary individuals.

Fourth Prince?

She didnʼt seem to have any conflicts with him. The Emperor? Right after leaving the palace, she was attacked, which was suspicious. Besides, going to the Voidless Empire was dangerous, and there was no guarantee sheʼd return alive. The Emperorʼs involvement seemed unnecessary.

Perhaps it was because she was a Heavenly Dao cultivator that assassins from the other two countries were sent after her. This possibility seemed more plausible.

She realised she had to conceal her identity as a Heavenly Dao cultivator from the beginning. Not only did it raise suspicions from the Emperor, but it also attracted othersʼ attention.

If a Greatmaster had come last night, things would have taken a dangerous turn.

Fortunately, that person had helped her.

Mu Ran glanced at Cang Konghong on the bed and gently leaned against the bed, closing her beautiful eyes, feeling exhausted.

Meanwhile, Cang Konghong, lying on the bed, didnʼt dare to move at all, fearing he might be discovered.

The next morning, Mu Ran suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, realising it was already dawn. She looked at Cang Konghong on the bed and observed him for a moment; he had recovered well.

She sighed with relief, stood up, and prepared to wash her face.

But then, she heard a noise from the bed, and when she turned around, she saw Cang Konghong sitting up, wearing his iron mask again.

”You canʼt get out of bed now; you need rest!” Mu Ran hurriedly went to persuade him.

Cang Konghong had enough last night. He had hardly slept a wink and was very cautious.

Shaking his head, he disregarded Mu Ranʼs advice and walked out directly.

Mu Ran sighed softly. Tang Weiʼs cousin indeed had a peculiar personality, but his recovery ability was remarkable. Perhaps it was due to the potent pills given by her master, or maybe both factors contributed.

”Miss?” At that moment, Tang Wei approached, holding a basin of water, looking curious.

”Your cousin seems to be almost recovered,” Mu Ran chose to believe in the power of the pills.

”Thatʼs great. Let me thank you on behalf of my cousin,” Tang Wei replied.

”No need, he saved me, so I should thank you both,” Mu Ran smiled faintly.

After washing her face, Mu Ran said, ”Tang Wei, help me pack my things.”

”Miss, are you leaving now?” Tang Wei asked anxiously.

”Yes, Tang Wei, you and your husband should live well here.”

Mu Ran planned to go alone this time because the journey would be perilous, and there was a high chance of life-threatening situations.

Tang Wei naturally wouldnʼt stay here: ”Miss, Iʼm going with you.”

”Tang Wei, thereʼs no need. Itʼs very dangerous for me this time.”

”Miss, Iʼm not afraid of danger.”

Mu Ran chuckled lightly, ”Tang Wei, really, you donʼt need to.”

”Miss, if you go alone, who will take care of you? Besides, Iʼm familiar with that place, and my cousin asked us to come back. I also want to see the situation there. Itʼs on the way.” Tang Wei explained forcefully. It was also part of their current plan.

Mu Ran pondered for a moment and then said, ”After entering the city, donʼt follow me anymore; itʼs too dangerous.”

”Okay.” Tang Wei happily agreed.

”Then go and prepare; weʼll leave immediately.”

”Sure.”

This time, not many people knew that Mu Ran was heading to the Voidless Empire. Even when she left the city, only Mu Anguo was there to see her off, and her mother and younger brother had no idea.

Even as the Saintess, there was no one to see her off, and there were no follow-ups regarding the assassins from last night. It was a bit disheartening, but Mu Ran cared more about the people, so she let go of other concerns.

In the palaceʼs rear garden, Emperor Feng Yong Chang was enjoying the flowers, accompanied by Ding Wenfu.

A young eunuch stood respectfully next to Feng Yong Chang and whispered a few words.

”Your Majesty, I believe the Saintess has left the city,” Ding Wenfu said respectfully.

Feng Yong Chang held the scissors and slowly trimmed the flowers. ”Who sent the assassins yesterday?”

”It has been confirmed to be the Profound Kingdom.” [Patreonʼs choice]

”That old scoundrel! He dared to assassinate my Saintess and frame me! He deserves death!” Feng Yong Chang slammed the scissors to the ground, and all the palace maids around knelt.

If Mu Ran had died in Divine Steppes last night, the Supreme Spirit Sect wouldnʼt let it go, and they might even blame the Divine Steppes, leading to severe consequences.

”Calm down, Your Majesty. Fortunately, the Saintess is safe,” Ding Wenfu said softly, but his words were meant for the surrounding palace maids to hear.

”Blessed be the Saintessʼs safe return. If she doesnʼt return soon, I will annihilate this Voidless Empire!” Feng Yong Chang knew very well that he hoped the Saintess would stay in the Voidless Empire forever. That way, he wouldnʼt have to act personally, and the Supreme Spirit Sect would take care of the Voidless Empire.

”Long live Your Majesty!” Ding Wenfu shouted loudly, and the palace maids echoed the cheer.

In such a position, everyone needed to wear a mask and play a role.

On the other side, Wei Chang and Cang Konghong sat outside the carriage, while Mu Ran and Tang Wei sat inside.

The four of them were heading to the Voidless Empire, and at the carriageʼs pace, it might take half a month to reach the destination.

Wei Chang deliberately slowed down the carriageʼs speed, creating opportunities, but looking at Cang Konghongʼs current state, he didnʼt know how to make use of them. He was like a block of wood; no wonder Yue Hua didnʼt like him. Which woman would like someone like him?

Take himself as an example. When he pursued Tang Wei, he picked her up every day, accompanied her for late-night snacks, strolled around together—how romantic it was.
