#442 - What about the sound?

"The Martial Emperor is tyrannical and incompetent, are you willing to usurp his throne?"

In the courtyard, Wu Yanhan held the letter, looked at the words on it, then chuckled and tossed the letter aside.

Last night, after Xu Ming received this letter, he even went around to look for the messenger.

The result was naturally fruitless.

In the end, Xu Ming brought the letter to the Princess Manor and showed it to Wu Yanhan.

However, to be precise, this residence is no longer the Princess Manor, but the Qin King Manor.

"Regarding this letter, I will investigate it thoroughly, but there is no need to have too much hope. After all, the other party must have handled such a letter carefully and will not leave you any leverage," Wu Yanhan said slowly.

"I naturally know that," Xu Ming nodded, took a sip of tea, "But what I want to ask is, do you think it is necessary to show this letter to His Majesty?"

"There is no need."

Wu Yanhan shook her head.

"Although showing this letter to His Majesty might make you appear upright and honorable, Xu Ming, not everything can be told to my imperial father.

Have you ever considered that when you tell my imperial father about this matter, he might praise you to your face, but what about later? My imperial father will definitely overthink it.

Now, it is enough that you have told me about this matter. If someone uses this matter to deliberately make trouble or frame you, then I can also speak up for you."

"Indeed," Xu Ming agreed with Wu Yanhan's statement.

"Speaking of which, regarding the matter of Qi King wanting to kill me, are there still any remnants?" Xu Ming changed the subject.

In fact, Xu Ming had been wanting to ask about this, but he was indeed too busy yesterday.

Wu Yanhan sighed: "In my opinion, there should still be remnants of Qi King's plot to kill you, but I really can't find any evidence to investigate further. I'm sorry."

"Why are you apologizing to me?" Xu Ming smiled, "I've long heard that you've turned the entire court upside down for my sake. Now, many officials tremble when they see you. Since the investigation can't continue, it means the involvement is too deep and widespread. If they've given up now, then I won't care. But if they still harbor the intention to harm me, then don't blame me for personally investigating it."

Wu Yanhan looked at Xu Ming and smiled: "Now that Commander Xu has obtained the Shangfang Sword, you've become much more assertive."

"It's alright, it's alright," Xu Ming said with a smile, "This commander of mine is still nothing in front of Your Highness. Besides, this sword of mine is the imperial family's sword."

Wu Yanhan tilted her head: "I'm also a member of the imperial family, so is it my sword then?"

Xu Ming nodded: "It was originally your sword."

Listening to Xu Ming's words, Wu Yanhan's cheeks flushed slightly, she turned her head away and muttered softly: "Then you were having so much fun in the North Sea."

"Yanhan, what did you just say?" Xu Ming didn't hear clearly.

"I was asking, is that Eternal Dragon Queen good-looking?" Wu Yanhan said with a smile, her tone carrying a hint of sourness.

"Not as good-looking as you!" Xu Ming said seriously.

If the Dragon Queen asked this, then Xu Ming would say the Dragon Queen was good-looking.

If Yanhan asked this, then he would say Yanhan was good-looking.

The main thing was to be fair to everyone.

"Hmph," Wu Yanhan turned her head away again, but Xu Ming could see the corners of her mouth turning up.

"By the way, where is Sheng Sheng? Why haven't I seen her?" Xu Ming asked.

When Xu Ming went to the North Sea, he entrusted Sheng Sheng to Wu Yanhan's care.

Wu Yanhan really liked Sheng Sheng.

But this time when he came back, he didn't see Sheng Sheng.

Logically speaking, Sheng Sheng should have been happy to come and find him as soon as she heard he was back.

"Sheng Sheng is in seclusion," Wu Yanhan replied.

"Seclusion?" Xu Ming was stunned. Could Sheng Sheng also go into seclusion? What was she going into seclusion for?

"After you left the North Sea, Sheng Sheng kept saying she was dizzy. Finally, I found a physician cultivator in the Immortal Realm to examine Sheng Sheng. After learning about the situation, the physician suspected that Sheng Sheng might have entered a certain evolutionary node."

Speaking of this, Wu Yanhan's brows also furrowed slightly.

"Among cultivators, there is breaking through realms. As the realm increases, the strength also becomes stronger.

Martial artists are the same.

So are demon cultivators.

So are magical beasts, except that the strengthening of magical beasts is described as 'evolution'.

Every time a magical beast evolves, its strength will increase greatly, and its appearance and shape will also change."

Xu Ming could completely understand Wu Yanhan's description, but the problem was, did Sheng Sheng still need to evolve?

"Sheng Sheng has human blood, and when I left, shouldn't the human blood have completely suppressed her magical beast blood?" Xu Ming asked.

Wu Yanhan sighed: "Before you left, Sheng Sheng's human blood did suppress the magical beast blood, that's right, but Xu Ming, half of Sheng Sheng's blood is that of a magical beast!

Moreover, the magical beast blood in Sheng Sheng's body is extraordinary and extremely domineering. As Sheng Sheng gradually grows up, no one can guarantee that Sheng Sheng's bloodline can always suppress the magical beast blood!"

As she spoke, Wu Yanhan stood up, then turned her back to Xu Ming and untied her belt.

As the girl's clothes slipped to her waist, Xu Ming clearly saw a scar on Wu Yanhan's fair and smooth back.

The scar was like the claw mark of a beast.

Xu Ming said in disbelief: "This scar was caused by... Sheng Sheng?"

Wu Yanhan put her clothes back on, turned around, and nodded: "Sheng Sheng went berserk at the time. When I subdued her, I accidentally got hurt by her. This scar is nothing. I can remove it in two months with Xuenin cream.

But after Sheng Sheng regained consciousness, she felt very guilty.

She felt very sorry for me, and she was also very afraid of seeing you, afraid of being scolded by you, and even more worried that her out-of-control appearance would be seen by you.

So Sheng Sheng has been locking herself in her room and won't come out.

But the more Sheng Sheng's emotions are lost, the more the magical beast's blood takes over.

It just so happened that Sheng Sheng was on the verge of evolution at that time.

In the end, in order not to hurt me again, Sheng Sheng took the initiative to choose to slumber and evolve.

After evolution, there are two results. One is that Sheng Sheng is completely occupied by the magical beast's blood and becomes an inhuman magical beast.

The other result is that Sheng Sheng regains her sanity through her own will."

"..."

Xu Ming was silent for a long time.

Finally, Xu Ming raised his head and asked Wu Yanhan: "How much time is needed before the result appears?"

Wu Yanhan looked directly into Xu Ming's eyes: "Just within this month."
