In a fairly large room, Manager Ma invited Wu Xiaoshi to sit in his personal chair.

"Please, Your Majesty," Manager Ma treated Wu Xiaoshi with great care and reverence. He was so terrified that every movement was calculated, and sweat continuously dripped from his forehead.

"Relax, I won't pass judgment. Initially, I just wanted to buy something here, but when I heard there was an auction, I thought I might join. Is that possible?" said Wu Xiaoshi calmly.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to join the auction. It's a hassle. Just say what you want, and I will do my best to give it to you for free." Manager Ma waited nervously for Wu Xiaoshi's response, his heart pounding, terrified of misspeaking in front of the number one person in the Shi Empire.

"It wouldn't be fair if I just asked for it. Besides, if I asked for everything being auctioned, would you really be able to give it all?" Wu Xiaoshi looked at Manager Ma calmly, watching as his nervous face turned to one of shock. "Don't worry! I

I must remember it correctly, star cultivation, come out!"Nothing happened after waiting for how many breaths."Eh, why aren't there any scrolls or techniques coming out, let me close my eyes!" he muttered again.Wu Xiao Shi closed his eyes and searched in his memory if there was a requested technique tucked away? Among the fragments of memory that exist.

    Wu Xiao Shi took a short break by leaving the soul chamber. He looked around but found no one."Where did Song Hye go?" Wu Xiao Shi wondered. He stepped out of the room and found several soldiers on patrol within the residence. Wu Xiao Shi called out to them."Do you know where the queen has gone!?" Wu Xiao Shi could have used his dragon spiritual sense to locate his wife. However, at the moment, he lacked the energy due to the extensive training that had drained much of his strength."The Queen has been in the kitchen for the past few days, Your Majesty!" one of the three patrolling soldiers replied politely and respectfully.All three bowed. Although the written rules of the Jing Empire required subjects to kneel before the Emperor, Wu Xiao Shi had changed that. The rule only applied outside the residence or during official meetings. Otherwise, a bow was more than enough. He wasn’t someone obsessed with honor to the point of demanding people to kneel every time they met him."Contin

Several new faces had replaced the old officials—those who had either betrayed the kingdom or died in the struggle.Everyone sat in neat rows, listening closely to Wu Xiaoshi as he explained the progress of the new empire.Now seated beside him was Song Hye, his Empress. A woman of remarkable beauty, she was also known as the imperial princess of the Song Empire.The name of the empire had been changed to the Shi Empire, and everyone welcomed this change without opposition. Their only hope was that the Shi Empire would bring about a brighter future.Referring to what Emperor Shi had proclaimed, they could all imagine the great things to come. With the unification of two empires, it promised to become a bridge for administrative growth and the people's economy. Hence, they all supported the idea wholeheartedly.When

    Wen Li could not be underestimated, for she was not someone who would easily fall in battle. She dodged to the left when Wu Xiaoshi’s strike came from the right, thrusting her flexible sword.Clang! Clang! The sound of clashing blades echoed.Their blades met countless times, but what confused Wen Li was why the young man before her remained unaffected by the poison on her sword.Seeing her puzzled expression, Wu Xiaoshi swung his sword harder than before, forcing Wen Li to retreat.“Did you really think a toy poison like that could affect my body? You’re too naive!”His provocative words stung Wen Li, making her face flush with frustration.“Death Poison Physique…” Wen Li muttered softly. A bluish-purple glow radiated from her body, covering every inch of her skin. No normal flesh remained—her whole body seemed to be poison. What would happen if someone touched her?Wu Xiaoshi grew serious. He knew the level of this poison could exceed the speed of his internal healing.He jumped bac

    "It seems there will be turmoil in the palace," all the soldiers thought to themselves upon hearing that Emperor Wu Xiaoshi was going to meet Prince Jing Lung. However, none of them dared to object. They all lowered their weapons and escorted Wu Xiaoshi and his wife toward the grand hall of the palace.Inside the grand hall, laughter echoed. It came from several individuals who were delighted with their success in reclaiming the imperial palace."I am truly grateful for the help Patriarch Wen Li has provided in taking back this palace," Jing Lung said with a calm gaze toward Wen Li. He knew full well that without offering a city as a reward, a cunning man like Wen Li would never have agreed to help.Wen Li was a powerful figure, infamous for his expertise in poisons. As the patriarch of the Poison Sect—a sect focused solely on poison research—he was capable of poisoning the very air with his breath. Terrifying, indeed. With cultivation at the peak of the Heaven Realm, few dared to app

    "That means cultivation will progress faster if one cultivates within the soul world, isn't that right?" Wu Xiaoshi saw hope. He asked that because he wanted to bring Song Hye to the upper realm. He had thought it through, but the challenge lay in how to form it. According to the theory he had read, the soul world allowed everything to be placed there through imagination alone."You're absolutely right about that. The problem is how you create it and what kind of world you want. You already have a soul space—that is the foundation for forming a soul world, like the one I currently reside in. This could also be called a soul world, only smaller. So, you must train harder in the arts of space and time found within the Scroll of Heavenly Seals. By mastering those two techniques, you'll clearly be able to create a larger space, hence forming a soul world. Meanwhile, time is needed to regulate that world itself. But those skills are not limited to just that. There are many things you can d

    After spending three days and three nights in the room with his wife Song Hye without stepping out even once, the young man was finally seen by the guards that night.Wu Xiaoshi approached one of the guards and inquired about Uncle Jing’s condition.“The family steward is currently in his room. If the Patriarch wishes to see him, I can call him for you!”“I’ll go myself. Stay here and keep a good watch.” Wu Xiaoshi handed the guard a few gold coins and walked away.“Thank you, young Patriarch. May fortune always favor you!” said the guard.When he reached Uncle Jing’s room, Wu Xiaoshi called out. Even though he owned the entire residence, he still upheld manners and respected others’ privacy.“Uncle Jing, I’m here to visit!” he announced at the door.Not long after, the door opened, revealing a still-sturdy-looking man. He was shirtless, with a white cloth wrapped around his upper body.“Young master could’ve called me, and I would’ve come to you,” said Uncle Jing.“No need, I’m alrea
