Chapter 1960: Chapter 187: The Demon Emperor Delighted to Gain a Princess! Rich in Danger

…

“Your Majesty the Immortal Emperor, why have you summoned this ’foreign official’? If there’s anything I, Wang Shouzhe, can do, I will certainly do my utmost.” Wang Shouzhe spoke with utmost politeness, yet emphasized his outsider status.

It is true that Da Qian belongs to the Immortal Dynasty’s alliance, but it has no direct subordination to the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty. Even though the Immortal Emperor is immensely powerful, they cannot directly command Wang Shouzhe.

After all, the Wang family of Changning is a prominent family in Da Qian, not in the Frost Moon Immortal Dynasty.

“Master Shouzhe, there’s no need for such formality~ I just happened to have some free time and came to visit my little Si, and coincidentally she was chatting with Rich through the crystal screen.” The Immortal Emperor smiled, “I realized I have not yet met the legendary Master Shouzhe, so I had the impulse to see you.”

“Indeed, hearing a hundred times is not as good as seeing once~~ I really regret being born seven or eight thousand years too early.”

Wang Shouzhe didn’t believe a single word of it.

Nevertheless, as the Immortal Emperor is a formidable figure, he had to show appropriate respect, even across a screen.

So, before figuring out what the Immortal Emperor was actually up to, Wang Shouzhe decided to act like Rich, adopting a humble attitude and agreeing with whatever was said.

The Immortal Emperor, seeing Wang Shouzhe’s experienced and resistant demeanor, was also a bit helpless.

After a bit of casual talk, she had to return to the main topic: “By the way, Master Shouzhe, did you know that your Yuxuan and Licui have made a sensational achievement on the extraterritorial battlefield, earning tremendous merit?”

Wang Shouzhe looked “astonished”: “Weren’t the two of them studying at the Immortal Palace? How did they suddenly end up on the extraterritorial battlefield? Given their bloodline talents and cultivation base, they shouldn’t have been allowed to go to the battlefield, right?”

“Who wouldn’t say so~ But they sneaked off anyway, which gave me quite a headache.” The Immortal Emperor sighed and briefly recounted what happened in the Immortal Third Defense Zone, along with the “achievements” of Wang Ying Xuan, Wang Li, and others.

Upon hearing this, both Emperor Zi’an and Wang Shouzhe looked at each other, both in utter disbelief.

They initially thought those two girls were just going to the front lines to gain some experience, never expecting them to cause such a commotion.

They truly lived up to being the girls who could give Wang Shouzhe a big headache.

“So, Your Majesty, what is your point?” Wang Shouzhe roughly guessed what the Immortal Emperor would say.

“Speaking of this matter, I feel a bit embarrassed.” The Immortal Emperor seemed slightly awkward, “Previously, the Immortal Supreme and I discussed and agreed that since Yuxuan and Licui are still quite young and their cultivation hasn’t reached the Divine Power Territory yet, too much notoriety might not be a good thing…”

Upon hearing this, Wang Shouzhe immediately took it seriously: “Your Majesty, your concerns are very valid. Those two girls are so unruly, they do indeed need a good lesson. If we widely publicize their achievements, their pride might end up flying sky-high. Moreover, their success this time involved a great deal of luck; if they become complacent, it could lead to serious trouble.”

As the saying goes, “The protruding post rots first,” both Licui and Yuxuan have extremely high potential, and being too high-profile is very likely to attract undue attention. Especially Yuxuan, who is a rare commanding talent; if she becomes too prominent and someone attempts an assassination, it would be troublesome.

In this regard, he aligned with the thoughts of the Immortal Emperor.

As for the Yinchan Demonic God, there’s no need to worry about her undermining them. For the sake of her own reputation, she wouldn’t broadcast that she was fooled by a couple of young girls.

Seeing Wang Shouzhe’s understanding nature, the Immortal Emperor let out a sigh of relief: “I don’t want such promising talents to come to any harm. But rest assured, Shouzhe, their merits won’t be erased by anyone; it’s just that we need to claim them under Su Yun’s name when announced publicly.”

Since Wang Ying Xuan and Wang Licui have joined the Immortal Palace, they naturally need to follow the orders of the Immortal Supreme and the Immortal Emperor. However, at all times, Wang Shouzhe remains their elder, and he has the right to know about such matters.

“Naturally. If it weren’t for the thorough consideration and support of the Eldest Princess, how could they have achieved so much simply with their little wits?” Wang Shouzhe nodded, “Your Majesty, you need not worry; this is also for the protection of Yuxuan and Licui. I will personally write a letter to soothe those two mischievous girls.”

Speaking of which, Wang Shouzhe was very supportive of Princess Su Yun.

He had gathered intelligence on Princess Su Yun through various channels and even had the Group Immortal Palace gather detailed information on some specifics. He concluded that she not only had exceptional comprehensive abilities but was also compassionate, prioritized the big picture, and had a strong sense of responsibility. If she could become the Immortal Emperor, it would be more beneficial than harmful for the human race.

“Wang Shouzhe’s righteousness!” The Immortal Emperor praised endlessly, “With your words, I feel at ease. If our human race had a few more like the Wang family, how could our revitalization fail?”

“Your Majesty, you flatter us.” Wang Shouzhe clasped his hands with a smile, “In fact, we owe thanks to you for your enduring care of our family. By the way, recently, Princess Su Yun wrote to Ningxi, hoping to get some resource support for the extraterritorial battlefield. As it happens, our Wang family has already prepared those resources and can have the Yao family deliver them to the Eldest Princess at any time.”

“Su Yun even asked Ningxi for money…?” The Immortal Emperor’s eyes flashed, and her radiant face showed a hint of astonishment, “That child, her thick skin seems to have progressed. Regarding this matter, accept my thanks, Master Shouzhe.”
