Chapter Index

    Han Diaosi wanted to escape?

    But how could Nangong Pushi give him the chance? With a tap of her toes, she pursued him like a shadow. The long blade in her right hand thrust forward, the sharp edge piercing through Han Diaosi’s back and exiting through his chest, pinning him to the pillars of the great hall.

    Han Diaosi’s body suddenly stiffened, a large mouthful of blood gushed from his mouth, his eyes quickly glazed over, and finally, his head slumped powerlessly.

    The leader of a hundred thousand eunuchs and the man who wielded power over the Liyang court, Han Diaosi, met his end right there in the imperial palace hall.

    Nangong Pushi sheathed her blade, her face expressionless, showing no joy despite her successful revenge.

    Because only one of her enemies was dead.

    Emperor Yonghui watched with a trembling heart. It was one thing for Yu Xian to be brutal, but even his woman was so savage. Damn, they really were two of a kind sharing the same bed!

    Stay away, he must stay away!

    Even as the Emperor, he could not afford to provoke such a brutal group of people.

    “My apologies, Emperor Yonghui, for making a mess of your place,” Yu Xian said with a smile as he looked at Han Diaosi’s corpse.

    Emperor Yonghui waved his hands hurriedly. “It’s fine, it’s fine, as long as it didn’t ruin everyone’s mood for the meal. Someone, come here!”

    Guards from outside entered upon hearing the command. Seeing Han Diaosi’s corpse and the floor covered in blood, they quickly carried the body away. Then, several others used rags to wipe the blood clean before retreating quickly.

    If one hadn’t witnessed it personally, it would be impossible to believe that a great battle had just occurred in the hall and that someone had died.

    “Auntie Nangong is amazing again!” Xianger said while eating. The three-year-old was not frightened at all by Nangong Pushi’s killing just now; instead, she was eating with great relish.

    “Auntie, amazing!” Yu Anling followed suit.

    Emperor Yonghui was shocked! Were these really two little girls aged two or three? Yu Xian’s whole family were monsters! Every single one of them was a monster!

    “Little one, aren’t you afraid?” Emperor Yonghui asked, his throat bobbing as he swallowed.

    “Afraid of what?” Xianger replied nonchalantly.

    “Not afraid!” Yu Anling answered directly.

    Emperor Yonghui was completely flummoxed by the two little girls!

    “If Daddy and Mommy didn’t keep me from fighting, hmph hmph…” Xianger felt she was already very powerful, but every time there was a fight, her parents would throw them back into the Small World. How hateful! She never got a chance to act and could only go to the Forest to bully small animals.

    “Sister, amazing!” Yu Anling flattered her sister at the right moment.

    Emperor Yonghui:…Who am I? Where am I?

    “Daddy will let you fight next time,” Yu Xian coaxed.

    “Hmph hmph, Daddy says that every time, but ‘next time’ is always ‘next time’,” Xianger curled her lip.

    Next time is next time, not this time. He’s just fooling a child!

    Yu Xian laughed awkwardly. It was mainly because the child was too young; how could he let her fight? But the child was too smart, and his tricks were starting to fail!

    “Daughter, you’re still small. When you grow up, Daddy won’t stop you! Daddy is doing this to protect you!” This old father, Yu Xian, spoke with earnest and well-meaning intentions!

    “But Xianger is already very strong,” Xianger said dissatisfiedly.

    “Xianger, besides being able to beat Anan, who else can you beat?” Yu Xian threw out a hard fact.

    Xianger:…

    In the family, besides Anan, she really couldn’t beat anyone! She couldn’t even beat her younger brother, Yu Chenrong!

    “But, but I have Huo Huo!” Xianger was indignant. She still had the Fire Kirin!

    “Is Huo Huo your partner or your muscle?” Yu Xian asked.

    “Partner,” Xianger answered firmly.

    “Since he’s a partner, he’s also a partner to your brothers and Anan. So, you have no advantage,” Yu Xian continued.

    Xianger:…

    “Then when I grow up, I’ll help Daddy beat the bad guys,” Xianger said resolutely after thinking for a moment.

    Hearing this, Yu Xian’s heart instantly melted.

    Seeing this scene, Emperor Yonghui couldn’t help but feel envious. “Young Master Yu’s children are each like a Dragon or a Phoenix among men. It’s truly enviable!”

    “Mhm, envy is all you can do,” Yu Xian replied flatly, but the pride in his eyes was hard to hide.

    Emperor Yonghui:…

    Can we not have a normal conversation?!

    “Does Young Master Yu have a place to stay in Taian City? Should I arrange a courtyard for you?” Emperor Yonghui changed the subject. He no longer wanted to talk to Yu Xian and wanted to send him away as quickly as possible, even if it meant giving away a courtyard.

    “No need, this imperial palace of yours is actually quite nice,” Yu Xian said playfully.

    Emperor Yonghui:…Damn, exactly what I feared!

    “Then I shall arrange a palace for the Young Master and The Women.” Emperor Yonghui didn’t dare to object and could only follow Yu Xian’s lead.

    “Just kidding, you should keep living in your imperial palace yourself.” Seeing Emperor Yonghui’s expression, Yu Xian couldn’t help but want to laugh.

    However, he really wouldn’t stay in the palace. How could the palace be better than his Small World? He’d just drop by occasionally to taste the food made by the Imperial Chefs. Although he still preferred Huang Rong’s cooking, he could change his palate every now and then.

    Hearing that Yu Xian was only joking, Emperor Yonghui breathed a sigh of relief.

    Yu Xian looked toward The Women and the several children. “Are you all full?”

    The Women all nodded. Yu Chenning and Yu Chenrong, who were still eating, immediately put down their chopsticks and nodded.

    “Daddy, wait a moment, let me eat a bit more,” Xianger’s urgent voice came, followed by the sound of munching.

    She had talked too much just now and hadn’t eaten much. Her daddy asking them meant they were about to leave, so she had to hurry up and eat more.

    “Slow down, no rush.” Yu Xian shook his head dotingly. Oh, this daughter of his!

    “Daddy, I’m done!” Xianger quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks.

    Seeing his daughter so quick, Yu Xian felt a sense of gratification. He then looked at Yu Anling, who had already finished eating and was waiting obediently.

    “Emperor Yonghui, I am very satisfied with your performance today. We shall meet again!”

    As soon as Yu Xian finished speaking, his women and children in the hall vanished instantly, leaving only Yu Xian alone. Then, Yu Xian also vanished, leaving behind an empty hall.

    Emperor Yonghui swallowed hard. They left! They finally left! He didn’t eye half of the national treasury; he just came for a meal and to kill a person… Not bad, not bad! Emperor Yonghui couldn’t help but pat his chest to calm his nerves.

    Yu Xian could perceive the changes in Emperor Yonghui’s emotions from afar, and a smile touched the corners of his mouth. After leaving the palace far behind, he also entered the Small World.

    Back in the Small World, he heard The Women chirping as they discussed the Imperial Banquet just now. Clearly, they had enjoyed the meal and were asking Huang Rong dish by dish if she could replicate them.

    Huang Rong stated that with some research, there shouldn’t be a problem.

    Then, The Women cheered, all saying they wanted to research with Huang Rong.

    Yu Xian finally understood that this group of women in his house, including the children, were all foodies! It seemed he would have to take them to different places to taste local delicacies more often in the future.
