The Empress Is Gigolo 475 Corpse

"Princ.i.p.al Ren, Her Majesty is waiting for you."

Ren Baqian squinted his eyes, began to size up the surroundings, and realized that everything was in ruins. He could no longer see the original state of the street.

Dozens of winged cavalry warriors were standing around, and Captain Gong Zheng was by his side.

"Is Teng Yue dead?" Ren Baqian turned to ask.

"We have kept his head for Princ.i.p.al Ren!" Gong Zheng grinned, revealing a set of white teeth.

"Was the scene exciting when his spear suddenly disappeared?" Ren Baqian was only concerned about this point. This person was the fourth most powerful expert in the world, and he was slightly stronger than the empress. Ren Baqian really wanted to see the expression on his face after he lost his Heaven-grade weapon that he had been forming over the past ten years.

After hearing Ren Baqian's words, Gong Zheng's expression immediately became weird. One had to know that even though a Heaven-grade weapon was formed by one's soul and could be smashed, it could never be stolen. This was a fact that everyone knew.

However, this notion was shattered by the person in front of him.

Right under everyone's eyes, Ren Baqian actually disappeared together with Teng Yue's spear.

Gong Zheng would never forget Teng Yue's sorrowful cry for the rest of his life.

Even if Teng Yue was on his deathbed, he would still be trying to summon his Heaven-grade weapon.

Ren Baqian burst into laughter after listening to Gong Zheng's explanation.

"Since you struck your spear at me once, I will kidnap your spear once as well."

Regardless of everything else, he felt that he had successfully taken revenge.

Throughout the entire journey, Ren Baqian was truly made aware of the destructive power of this battle while being escorted by the protection of many winged cavalry warriors.

He estimated that at least ten percent of the city had turned into ruins. As he pa.s.sed through the streets, he spotted wreckage everywhere. The original slate laid on the ground was also gone. Instead, large holes could be seen everywhere.

Looking into the distance, even a huge piece of the city wall had collapsed.

Teng Yue wanted to escape, but unfortunately, he didn't succeed. On a scale of ten points, the importance of his spear was ten points, while his boxing skills were only five points.

When his Heaven-grade weapon disappeared, his ending was very predictable.

As for Teng Yue stealing two bamboo spears in Wu City… Ordinary weapons completely failed to withstand the strength of a Spirit Wheel expert.

"How many casualties did we suffer?" Ren Baqian asked.

"This time, we hid further away, so there were no casualties."

"What about the commoners?" Ren Baqian pointed at the surroundings.

"A few hundred casualties among the commoners. They were all affected by the aftermath. I saw that they dug out a lot of survivors from the ruins." Gong Zheng scratched his head. He didn't pay much attention to this matter at all.

The biggest residences in Wu City were practically all on that piece of land. Now, the area had practically turned into ruins.

This time, they occupied several large courtyard, and the empress occupied the one with the best scenery.

At first, the courtyard looked ordinary, but after the original owner meticulously decorated it, fresh flowers filled the entire home. Furthermore, it wasn't like a normal courtyard where the flowers grew neatly and in an orderly manner. Instead, many different types of flowers were grown together, creating an exquisite effect and giving off a unique kind of aesthetics.

In addition, the aromas of these flowers combined to form a very nice fragrance. Ren Baqian instantly felt refreshed just as he walked into the courtyard.

"Your Majesty, I have missed you to death," Ren Baqian called out once he entered the room.

The empress rolled her eyes at him and replied, "There are no more candies!"

Ren Baqian was speechless.

Your Majesty, I have just escaped death!!!

Can't you show me more warmth?

Ren Baqian sighed. If she was more warm hearted, she wouldn't be the empress anymore.

With each of them minding their own business, Ren Baqian walked to the empress's side and asked gently, "How are your injuries, Your Majesty?"

"Nothing much."

"Don't tell me it'll take a month to heal again?" Ren Baqian subconsciously asked. After that, he saw the empress lift the corners of her eyebrows and knew that he was spot on.

Fortunately, the empress didn't hit Ren Baqian. An attack from her would definitely leave him with multiple injuries!

He would definitely be hurt!

At the thought of it, as the fifth most powerful expert in the world… Wait, she was now the fourth most powerful expert in the world. If he was the opponent, that would be a tragic story.

Which expert in the movies or novels didn't suavely flick his or her glorious robe with a glinting sword in hand while floating around like an immortal?!

Each one of them was more despicable than the other.

For example, "The Return of Luk Xiu Fung."

Is there anyone who gets seriously injured every time he or she attacks?

In any case, whether it was a victory of defeat, the empress would always get seriously injured. Actually, she had yet to suffer a defeat, but would become seriously injured every time she fought.

"You have complaints?" Seeing Ren Baqian's odd expression, she gave him the side eye, which was full of murderous intent. Her pair of gorgeous eyes instantly narrowed.

"Your Majesty's wisdom and strength are unparalleled! Your Majesty will also unite the world for thousands of generations!" Ren Baqian shouted.

The empress ignored him.

"Does Your Majesty like this courtyard? I've noticed that the flowers outside are rather unique." Ren Baqian changed the topic.

As usual, the empress said indifferently, "Not bad! There's a variety of them!"

"There is a shortage of gardeners in the palace. Would it be better to send him and his family to the palace to manage the imperial garden?"

"My sentiments exactly!" The empress nodded.

"Furthermore, I met a good carpenter previously and instructed someone to send him to the palace. It can be said that there are still some talents in Tianjing Basin. The people in the palace are all too rough and can't handle jobs that requires delicate actions."

Ren Baqian's words gave the empress a second thought. Getting the aboriginals to do such delicate tasks was indeed putting them on the spot.

Ren Baqian accompanied the empress for a chat which was followed by lunch. Only then did he tell the empress, "I'll go take a look at how the little monk, Qingyun Sword, and the rest are settling down."

"Go ahead!" The empress waved him off.

Ren Baqian walked to the door and then turned his head before saying, "Your Majesty, if such an incident happens again, just help me to take revenge."

Bang! The empress threw her wine cup at his head. Ren Baqian was drenched and smelled like sorghum wine from head to toe.

Thereafter, another cup was sent flying… Then, a table flew toward him too…

Drenched in sorghum wine, Ren Baqian hurriedly took off and let out a huge sigh. It was rare for him to be so magnificent, but she didn't even give him a chance to show off.

"Sigh, such is life!" Ren Baqian sighed.

However, the empress's behavior actually made him ecstatic.

"Where's Teng Yue's corpse?" Ren Baqian ran out of the courtyard and asked a bodyguard.

"Hanging at the top of the city wall!"

After hearing that, Ren Baqian hurriedly asked someone to pull his fork-horned cow over to the city wall. Upon arrival, he saw a head hanging up high with its neck mangled up badly. It seemed that someone had twisted and broke his neck while he was still alive.

As for the head, it had been so badly battered that no one could tell that it was a human being anymore.

"Anything else?" Ren Baqian asked.

"There are still some other things. Her Majesty has already instructed people to soak them in ashes. After displaying this head for a period of time, it will be taken back to Lan City and showcased in the plaza of the palace.

"Take me there."

Since there were still other things, Ren Baqian was prepared to bring them back to Earth for the Messier 87 department to study them.

As for this head, it was still better to leave it here. After all, there were souls in this world, and Teng Yue's Heaven-grade weapon was soaking itself in Ren Baqian's Sea of Knowledge.

He wondered if there was any residue left over from this head.

In the past, Ren Baqian felt that the suppression of the bodies of their enemies was just a superst.i.tion from an uncivilized nation.

After interacting with the aboriginals for a long time, his thoughts actually became aligned with theirs.

As Ren Baqian was always by the empress's side, he had yet to travel to many places or see many things. Perhaps there might be demons and monsters deep in the mountains and woods.

Previously, Ning Caichen did mention such a thing to Ren Baqian. However, he thought that Ning Caichen was just talking big.

Now that he thought about it, there might be such things that exist in this world.

If they existed, then the biggest possibility would be in one's head.

After all, the Sea of Knowledge was in one's head, and the aboriginals also had a tradition of bringing the heads of their soldiers who died in battle back to the Sixty Thousand Mountains for burial.The Return of Luk Siu-fung is a 1986 Hong Kong television series adapted from Gu Long's Lu Xiaofeng novel series.
