"Thanks, Senior Brother, I'll take that as a compliment!"
After cultivating his face to a certain realm, Tang Rao's thick skin defies imagination.
"Actually, there are countless ways to get closer to me. You could use information about Chen Ajiu to establish a good connection with me."
Turns out Tang Rao's sparring trip to the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple had conditions.
That smart monkey pulled Ku Song and Kuzhu into a deep pit again.
"You two are the foundation of the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple, while the abbot is just a figurehead, so I came directly to you, didn't even look for anyone else."
I really wish you'd go find someone else.
The two old monks looked at each other and smiled.
The bitter expression they carried was something only they understood.
"Chen Ajiu again, you're asking about Chen Ajiu again, Junior Brother, why are you fixated on this person?"
Ku Song sighed.
He and Chen Tuan's expressions were identical.
"Chen Ajiu is a forbidden topic in the Land of Immortals. I really wouldn't mention it unless absolutely necessary."
Forcing Ku Song to talk about Chen Ajiu's affairs is harder than forcing a monk to be a prostitute.
"Chen Ajiu? Who's talking about Chen Ajiu?"
Ku Song hadn't even noticed there was someone else beside him.
Qi Yun, the old man!
"Qi Yun, old man, why did you suddenly show up?"
Given Ku Song and Kuzhu's status as Immortal Emperors, Qi Yun, a wandering Taoist, could easily come here, suggesting his relationship with the old monks must be quite good.
"I came as soon as I heard 'Chen Ajiu', not sudden at all."
Qi Yun Taoist said earnestly.
"Tang Rao, you tell me, did Chen Tuan and Liu Mingyue really get married?"
Qi Yun Taoist's face was filled with grief.
He's been feeling lost for days, constantly imagining the scene of Chen Tuan with Liu Mingyue together.
Now, the shocking news that they suddenly got married hit him last.
"Old man, listen to me, you can't force matters of the heart. Why not consider finding another partner seriously?"
Constantly talking about Liu Mingyue, do you even know I'm in a hurry to find Chen Ajiu right now? Can't you just leave me alone?
"They did get married indeed. Ming Yue dislikes me for being ugly, that's why she wouldn't marry me, and kept me waiting for thousands of years. Tang Rao, am I really that ugly?"
Qi Yun Taoist clutches Tang Rao's sleeve and refuses to let go.
You're not just ugly, you're also a nag.
No wonder Liu Mingyue would rather die than be with Qi Yun Taoist.
If they truly got together, Tang Rao would curse Liu Mingyue for sticking a flower on a pile of cow dung.
"Not ugly, not ugly, let me first figure out Chen Ajiu's business, and then you can ask me about Sister Ming Yue, okay?"
Tang Rao lifted Qi Yun Taoist, "Why can't Chen Ajiu's matter be mentioned?"
"Tang Rao, is Ming Yue really not rejecting me because I'm ugly?"
"Scram!"
This time, instead of just lifting, Tang Rao directly toppled Qi Yun Taoist.
"Finally quiet, let's continue."
Tang Rao rubbed his ear, glad there's no buzzing fly around him anymore, finally some peace.
"Chen Ajiu was chosen by the Corpse Emperor as the heiress, destined to inherit the entire Corpse Emperor Family."
Ku Song revealed the long-hidden secret shockingly as ever.
"Her soul is controlled by the Corpse Emperor, she's no longer like before, her actions manipulated by the Corpse Emperor, doing unwilling things daily, yet suffers from the constraint, still having her own thoughts."
That's the fate of women chosen by the Corpse Emperor.
They seek a woman with unwavering Divine Sense as the heiress.
The Corpse Emperor can't take away Chen Ajiu's Divine Sense, yet can plant his own Divine Sense in Chen Ajiu's mind.
Both the Corpse Emperor and Chen Ajiu rise and fall together.
Unless the Corpse Emperor's Divine Sense is extracted from Chen Ajiu's body.
It's truly a tough problem.
Tang Rao truly regretted asking about past affairs.
Once forbidden in the Land of Immortals, discussed today, Tang Rao surely wouldn't just let it go.
"Don't bother, Junior Brother, many Immortal Emperors joined forces back then, yet couldn't save her; nowadays, the Corpse Emperor's power is unparalleled, we also must face reality."
"Face reality? I, Tang Rao, never trust reality, nor fate!"
Chen Ajiu not only had the kindness of recognizing Tang Rao but also of nurturing, forcing Tang Rao to withdraw felt like making him betray his mentors and ancestors.
"The Corpse Emperor was severely injured in the Gengyu Mausoleum, almost met his end, back then I lacked strength, it's not impossible now to battle the Corpse Emperor."
Confronting the Corpse Emperor again, Tang Rao believed he'd have more confidence.
"Junior Brother, the reason he's called the Corpse Emperor is he raised ten small Corpse Worms; each worm's power equates one-tenth of the Corpse Emperor's, the one in the Gengyu Mausoleum is just a pitiful worm!"
He truly couldn't bear to hurt the hopeful Tang Rao.
Finally gaining some confidence, dreams flying onto hopeful fields, only for torrential rain to pour from the sky.
"Oh my gosh! It can't be that unique!"
Tang Rao shouted aloud.
Isn't this making the matter unplayable anymore?
"The Corpse Worm you didn't kill, only injured; meaning aside from the Corpse Emperor's true form, you might face ten more similar challenges."
Tang Rao was dumbstruck.
Just what drew the Corpse Emperor to Chen Ajiu, selecting her as the heiress?
"Then do you know where the Corpse Emperor's true form is located?"
Tang Rao could avoid dealing with the other ten Corpse Worms, as long as he directly finds the Corpse Emperor, the solution can be figured out.
Tang Rao's luck has always been good; surely this time won't be an exception.
"No idea, no one in the Land of Immortals knows where the Corpse Emperor resides."
Even characters from Ten Thousand Buddha Temple level hidden Great Sect members can't trace the Corpse Emperor's whereabouts.
Looks like the lead has fallen through again.
However, being chosen as heiress, at least for now, the Corpse Emperor won't kill Chen Ajiu.
As long as Chen Ajiu lives, that's the best outcome.
"Hope Ten Thousand Buddha Temple welcomes me often to play in the future."
Tang Rao waved to Ku Song and Kuzhu, carries the still unconscious Qi Yun Taoist back to the Kao Shan Sect.
Chen Tuan, didn't you say you didn't want to look for Chen Ajiu, well then you shouldn't expect good days either.
Fortunes turn, I, Tang Rao will not let you have easy days.
For thorough revenge.
Tang Rao left Qi Yun Taoist outside the guest room where Chen Tuan and Liu Ming Yue were temporarily residing.
After arranging Qi Yun Taoist's posture suitably, Tang Rao calmly departed.
Now it's time to showcase real skills.
He took a deep breath.
Once again turning back to Chen Tuan and their side.
Inside the guest room, Liu Ming Yue cornered and blocked Chen Tuan, while little Sweet Sweet was ordered by Liu Ming Yue to only watch from the side, unable to get within three meters of Chen Tuan.
Before getting married, Chen Tuan was said to take concubines, yet what's the result? Only allowed to look, can't touch!
