Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son-Chapter 735: Talk With Zhou Xiaochuan

"What do you want from me so that you will be willing to heal all my wives?" Zhou Xiaochuan respectfully asked.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] pretended to think for a while. "Honestly, nothing is interesting in this realm, as it’s merely a middle realm, and I can find more interesting things in the upper realms. However, I have heard and seen many unusual things about this kingdom, one of which is that the men here never respect women, including you. You guys never give talented women a chance to develop themselves, and you only regard them as tools to fulfill your ambitions."

Zhang Xiaolong [3]’s bold statement left Zhou Xiaochuan speechless, especially since it had been going on since his ancestors’ era. He grew up in such a situation, and it shaped him to apply the same treatment to women in his generation or below.

"From your expression, I can tell that you are more concerned about your throne and power than your wives." Zhou Xiaochuan wanted to refute that, but Zhang Xiaolong [3] waved his hand to stop him. "To tell you the truth, I also used and exploited many women to achieve my ambitions. Unlike you, I will never use the women in my family as tools to achieve my ambitions, and I will only use those who are my enemies. Thus, if you exchange your throne and power for their lives, I will heal them immediately."

Zhou Xiaochuan responded with a dark face. As Zhang Xiaolong [3] said, the throne, power, and ambition were the most important to him. He would never trade them for anything, including the lives of all his wives.

Hong Xinxin laughed in her heart as she looked at Zhou Xiaochuan’s expression. ’Haha! I truly pity this foolish emperor! Zhang Fei caused all his wives to fall ill, but he innocently led this guy to make the most difficult decision of his life. Unfortunately, life is never fair to anyone, and he had to deal with the most cunning fox I have ever met.’

Zhou Hanling, who was standing behind Zhou Xiaochuan, also laughed in his heart after listening to Zhang Xiaolong [3]’s conditions.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] spoke again. "You don’t need to decide now, and you can think things over first. If you truly love all your wives and want them to be safe, you can come to me again. If you agree to my conditions, I will go straight to your royal palace to heal them. Otherwise, let them die and force other women to replace them, just like you forced them to be your wives."

Zhou Xiaochuan said nothing and hurriedly left the residence, followed by Zhou Hanling, who kept smiling to himself because no one had ever been able to put the Zhou Emperor in such a situation before.

"Hahaha." Hong Xinxin burst into laughter after they left. "You put that foolish emperor in an incredible dilemma, you know? He is clearly an ambitious man, and he wants everything in his hands, but you are asking him to choose between his ambitions and all his wives. Unfortunately, your efforts will be unsuccessful, especially since a man like him would never be willing to give up on his ambitions."

"I know that." Zhang Xiaolong [3] replied with a nod. "In fact, I never expected Zhou Xiaochuan to agree to my conditions, and I intentionally gave him such conditions just to play with his emotions. Every time he sees his wives, he will keep thinking about my condition. However, that foolish emperor might take extreme measures if he reaches a dead end, and he might let them die, or he might even kill them himself."

"Do you really believe that he would take such extreme measures by killing all his wives?" Hong Xinxin doubtfully asked.

"All that was just my guess after I peeked into his soul, and we’ll get the answer in the near future." Zhang Xiaolong [3] then rose to his feet. "I’ll go somewhere else to meet someone, and I’ll start to temper my body again once I get back."

After Zhang Xiaolong [3] left, Hong Xinxin shook her head. She could immediately guess his destination and the identity of the person he was referring to. ’He is so young, but he is already so cunning, and he repeatedly plays with people’s feelings. I can’t imagine that if he had lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years, all the living beings in this universe would probably be fooled by him.’

Zhou Xiaochuan had arrived in the room and looked seriously at his wives, who were still lying unconscious. As Zhang Xiaolong [3] expected, their previous conversation had disturbed his mind quite a bit. He did regard all his wives as tools, but he also cared about some of them, especially Dong Feiling. In his eyes, they were the best women, and there was no one better than them in his kingdom, so he couldn’t let them die.

’That bastard! Just because he came from the upper realm, he asked me to choose between my throne and all my wives.’ Zhou Xiaochuan clenched his fists so tightly that his palms bled. "Hanling, go to the border with the Yun Kingdom now! If you guys fail to capture the kingdom, I will sentence you all to death."

"Yes, Emperor." Zhou Hanling faintly smiled as he walked out of the room. He immediately contacted Zhang Xiaolong [3] and informed him about it.

Zhou Xiaochuan himself also left his six wives’ room to go to his study, where he continued to think about his conversation with Zhang Xiaolong [3] earlier.

After his two wives returned, Huangfu Shou inquired. "Did you get any important information on their wedding? Did anyone recognize you two there?"

"Husband, you can talk to Sister Yueyi, and I will go see your other concubines."

After the fake Ruo Yanxi left, Helian Yueyi immediately sat down beside her husband. "No one recognized our disguise, but Zhang Fei was really their son. That guy and Hong Xinxin were present at their wedding, and they were close to the royal members of the Xian and Yun Kingdoms. Moreover, Senior Tiannan had already said that the Hong Clan is powerful, so we must forget our desire to annex the two kingdoms. Otherwise, we will face them, and we will be the ones destroyed."

"You are right." Huangfu Shou replied with a serious expression. "Since we cannot attack the Yun and Xian Kingdoms, and the Bai Kingdom is already in our hands, our last choice is the Zhou Kingdom. I have received news that Zhou Xiaochuan’s troops have been on standby at the border with the Yun Kingdom for the past two weeks, but they still haven’t attacked them."

"Do you intend to attack the Zhou Kingdom now?"

Huangfu Shou nodded at her. "I have asked Old Ling to prepare our troops, and I have also asked Ziyuan to prepare to lead them together with the generals. However, I have not asked them to move yet, and I will wait for Senior Tiannan to arrive in two weeks to discuss this matter. If he agrees with my idea, I will order them to attack the Zhou Kingdom directly."

"I think waiting for Senior Tiannan is the correct decision, and our chances of defeating Zhou Xiaochuan will be much greater if he helps Huangfu Ziyuan and the others." Helian Yueyi then got up from his seat. "I feel strange about our daughters’ situation because they’ve been sleeping for over three weeks, and I had to force-feed them during that time, so I’m going to check on their condition now."

After his empress left, Huangfu Shou also left the room. He contacted Ling Baozi, Huang Ziyuan, and several others to meet him in the meeting room.

On her way to her daughter’s room, Helian Yueyi passed by the room of one of Huangfu Shou’s concubines. She heard moaning from inside, so she peeked in and found the fake Ruo Yanxi having fun with another concubine. ’Why do I feel like Sister Yanxi is getting hornier now? She also has many unconventional ideas, such as using the dildo on our husband, which causes him to become angry. Fortunately, he didn’t punish her; otherwise, she would have suffered.’

Helian Yueyi did not disturb the two women and hurried to her two daughters’ bedroom, but she let out a heavy sigh when she got there, especially since Huangfu Xiaoying and Huangfu Xiaomeng still had not woken up.

Helian Yueyi sat by the bed and checked their conditions, but she still couldn’t find any changes in their bodies. Despite their calm expressions, she knew that the black liquid was continuing to corrode their bodies, which made her afraid that they would become disabled.

"Are you worried about them?"

The question shocked Helian Yueyi, and she immediately turned to face the voice’s owner, Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "How did you manage to infiltrate this palace?"

"Haha." Zhang Xiaolong [3] laughed and stroked Helian Yueyi’s cheek. "You’ve seen a small part of my abilities, so you shouldn’t be surprised if I can break through the small barrier in this palace, right? By the way, you are more attractive without your disguise, and you look a little younger than before."

Helian Yueyi wanted to slap Zhang Xiaolong [3]’s hand, but he moved faster and held both her hands above her head. Her eyes widened as soon as he kissed her for the second time, and the first was that night at the river more than three weeks ago.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] didn’t kiss Helian Yueyi for too long and immediately separated their lips. "Your lips are also softer and wetter than when I kissed you the first time."

"You... You..." Helian Yueyi stuttered without being able to finish her words due to her overflowing anger.

"You what? Do you want to kiss me again?" Helian Yueyi covered her mouth with her hands and shook her head like a little girl, making Zhang Xiaolong [3] smile in amusement. He then looked at Huangfu Xiaoying and Huangfu Xiaomeng. "This is the second time I have infiltrated this palace, and I came here again because I was curious about their condition."

Helian Yueyi immediately asked. "Can you cure my two daughters? They were exposed to this black liquid in the Star Tower two months ago, and their condition has been deteriorating ever since. They have been in a deep sleep like this for the past three weeks, and I am afraid they will never wake up again."

Zhang Xiaolong [3] laughed in his heart when he heard that, especially since he deliberately made Huangfu Xiaoying and Huangfu Xiaomei fall asleep using his dream imprisonment ability. To be honest, I have never seen this black liquid before. I had already taken a sample of it some time ago, but I had not found a way to remove it from their bodies."

Zhang Xiaolong [3]’s answer disappointed Helian Yueyi, but she was aware that the Star Tower was too mysterious, and no cultivator had yet managed to solve the mysteries within it. "Actually, my husband has already sent someone to another realm, and he is on his way back with someone from that realm."

"Hmm?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] raised his eyebrows.

Helian Yueyi then continued. "He said that person might be able to cure my two daughters, but I am skeptical that person can cure them, especially since everything in the Star Tower is too mysterious."

"I’ve entered the Star Tower before, and I discovered too many mysteries there." Zhang Xiaolong [3] then asked her. "Who was the person your husband’s subordinates picked up?"

Helian Yueyi shook her head. "I don’t know that person’s identity yet, but they will arrive in two weeks, so I can only wait until they arrive."

’That person must be a member of the Huangfu Clan in the Grand Royal Realm, but I don’t need to worry about that person because Hong Xinxin lives in this realm now.’ Zhang Xiaolong [3] then faced Helian Yueyi. "Does your husband really intend to attack the Zhou Kingdom?"

"Were you eavesdropping on our conversation?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] only smiled at Helian Yueyi. "Since the Xian and Yun Kingdoms are your in-laws, we will never attack those two kingdoms. However, the Zhou Kingdom has no relationship with you, so we will attack them and take over their kingdom."

"Do you believe I have no connection with the Zhou Kingdom?" Helian Yueyi frowned in response, but Zhang Xiaolong [3] immediately shared his memories of his previous conversation with Zhou Xiaochuan. "I indeed have no relationship with the Zhou Emperor, but I want his kingdom for myself. That’s why I went to him and gave him that choice, so your husband will face me if he attacks his kingdom."

Helian Yueyi’s expression turned serious, and she questioned him. "Why do you want the Zhou Kingdom? Didn’t you already get the Xian and Yun Kingdoms with your son being their son-in-law?"

"Why do you and your husband intend to annex all the kingdoms on this island? Don’t you two already have a prosperous kingdom?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] turned the question around, leaving Helian Yueyi speechless. "You better tell your husband to stay away from the Zhao Kingdom, or I will slaughter his entire army if they set foot there. You may have the support of the Huangfu Clan in the Grand Royal Realm, but I am not afraid of them at all, and my wife’s Hong Clan is more than enough to destroy them."

Helian Yueyi was shocked once Zhang Xiaolong [3] mentioned the Huangfu Clan and the Grand Royal Realm. "How did you know about them?"

"Do you think I will tell you everything?" Zhang Xiaolong [3] then lifted Helian Yueyi’s chin. "I like kissing you, but you are another man’s wife. It would be a different story if you were my woman, and I would definitely tell you many things."

"Tch!" Helian Yueyi directly slapped Zhang Xiaolong [3]’s hand. "I admit you are strong, and your body is amazing, but I will never be attracted to other men. If you dare force me, I will commit suicide after that."

"Hehe." Zhang Xiaolong [3] chuckled in response. "If I wanted to, I could make you voluntarily hand yourself over to me, but I have no interest in doing so. Instead, I will slowly make you fall for me, and it will happen sooner or later."

"No!" Helian Yueyi shouted at him. "You can forget about your intention to seduce me; I will never yield to your seduction."

"I am not a man who gives up easily, and I can confidently say that you will be head over heels for me soon." Zhang Xiaolong [3] swiftly planted a kiss on Heliyan Yueyi’s lips before vanishing from the room, leaving her stunned for a considerable amount of time.

*Bam... Bam...*

Helian Yueyi immediately stomped her feet on the floor a few times once she came back to her senses.

"That bastard! He said he wanted me, but he insulted me over and over again!" Helian Yueyi let out a heavy sigh, glanced at her two daughters for a moment, and immediately left their room. "I hope Senior Tiannan will arrive soon, or my daughters won’t be able to hold on much longer."

Zhang Xiaolong [3] had already arrived at his residence in the Zhou Kingdom. He immediately took Hong Xinxin to the bathroom and soaked in a wooden tub. "When do you think my body cultivation level will break through to the third stage?"

"Do you want to go to the Blue Water Realm as soon as possible?" Hong Xinxin inquired as she poured a significant amount of Jiashen Liquid into the water. "As long as you focus on tempering your body, you will be able to break through in a month or so."

Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded in understanding. "In that case, I won’t be going anywhere in the next month, and I hope I can break through to the third stage faster than you estimate."

"All right." Hong Xinxin then explained several things to Zhang Xiaolong [3], who had already started absorbing the liquid, especially about the situation in the Red Sun Realm.
