He was really annoyed. He was already annoyed with Huang Wujin, and now he didn't have much patience anymore.
Huang Wujin's eyes were grim, with anger hidden between his brows.
"What did you talk about with Cui Dongsheng? Are you going to help those noble families deal with me?"
Meng Chen gradually regained his consciousness. He looked at Huang Wujin and said indifferently, "We didn't talk about anything. Why should I help them deal with you? I never do things that are thankless."
Huang Wujin smiled brightly, and in an instant, Meng Chen felt that the world had lost its color.
He had been avoiding too much communication with Huang Wujin, but at this moment he couldn't help but stare in amazement.
Huang Wujin remained indifferent, perhaps because he was used to the feeling of being stared at.
"Back to God."
Meng Chen finally came back to his senses and looked at the woman in front of him with interest.
"I've already explained it all, go back!"
Huang Wujin was still staring at him and had no intention of leaving.
"Perhaps you can help me. I can give you all the benefits you want."
"Puff!" Meng Chen laughed out loud: "Huang Wujin, you still want to lie to me, your credit is bankrupt in my eyes!"
Meng Chen was worried that she didn't understand bankruptcy, so he explained, "You have no credit with me. I won't believe anything you say!"
Huang Wujin was stunned, probably remembering that he had deceived Meng Chen, and now he felt a little embarrassed.
"Meng Chen, you misunderstood. It's not that I won't give it to you, but... the time is not right yet, so..."
"Stop talking. I don't want to hear any excuses about how the timing isn't right yet!" Meng Chen interrupted directly.
Huang Wujin's beautiful eyes widened: "How dare you interrupt me when I'm talking? This is a crime of disrespect..."
"Okay! Either kill me now or don't bother me anymore!" Meng Chen interrupted her again.
The main reason is that I still have a very bad impression of her and I don’t want to communicate with him at all.
Huang Wujin glared angrily, with a scarlet halo flashing across her body, probably a sign that the Divine Phoenix Flame was about to be activated, but she forcibly suppressed it.
"Okay, okay, Meng Chen, you're great!" She shouted angrily, turned around and was about to leave.
But when he reached the door, he stopped and said with his back to the emperor: "The four great families want His Majesty to reopen the competition. His Majesty will most likely agree, but those who participate in the competition will die. Don't get too close to the people from the families. Do you understand?"
Meng Chen didn't want to get too close to the people from the aristocratic families. What's more, Huang Wujin had come to warn him in person, and she still had some feelings for them. So Meng Chen couldn't afford to become her enemy.
"You won't imprison me anymore, right? Am I free now?" Meng Chen asked.
Huang Wujin opened the door and said coldly, "No."
Just as she was about to leave, Meng Chen asked again, "Are you the one who is secretly monitoring me?"
Huang Wujin did not answer but stepped forward. A space channel appeared. After she stepped into it, the space channel disappeared without a trace.
"You didn't even close the door when you left, really..." Meng Chen used his true energy to close the door, but he could no longer fall asleep.
It seems that Huang Wujin is going to play tough this time. Should I tell my cheap father-in-law?
When Meng Chen was thinking about these things, he had already entered the Human Emperor Banner. Lin Nihuang was still there, her body still looking weak.
It seemed that as long as Meng Chen did not use any medicine to repair his soul, it would dissipate. Thinking in this way, hadn't he accelerated her disappearance before?
This shouldn't be considered harming her, right? It's just to let her soul return to her body, and she agrees to it. Meng Chen sat beside Lin Nihuang and muttered to himself for a long time, then sighed.
Suddenly, he felt a warm sensation from behind. Meng Chen immediately turned around and faced Lin Nihuang's weak face.
She seemed extremely tired. She opened her mouth but could not say anything.
Just as Meng Chen was wondering, a divine thought came into his mind: "Run...Run quickly..."
Meng Chen suddenly became alert and wanted to use the Soul Medicine to repair her remaining soul and ask her to explain clearly. However, when he thought that the more medicine she took, the weaker she would become, he was at a loss for a moment.
"Buzz!"
Lin Nihuang's body suddenly trembled, and a layer of flames instantly covered her delicate body. She suddenly regained some spirit.
"The main body has a clearer understanding of you. For what you did to me, she will definitely not let you go!"
"Run away quickly! Escape from the East Phoenix Territory and never set foot here again."
"Master, I can't hold on for much longer. When my spirit and soul return completely, I may not be myself anymore. I won't be able to control what my body decides by then. You should leave now while I haven't completely merged with it yet!"
Meng Chen rubbed his brows: "Is it so bad? Then you won't recognize me anymore in the future..."
Lin Nihuang said bitterly: "Yes, Master, this is the last time I will call you that."
Meng Chen said nothing. The Phoenix Flame on Lin Nihuang's body suddenly shook violently, and her soul quickly dissipated.
"Master, my memory can only be sealed for about ten days. During this time, she will continue to awaken through dreams. You should leave as soon as possible!"
Meng Chen couldn't stop it, his expression was sad: "So...goodbye."
Huang Wujin's soul completely dissipated in the flames and returned to his body. The mark that Meng Chen had left behind also suddenly dissipated.
At the last moment before Lin Nihuang disappeared, a trace of reluctance flashed in her eyes. Before Meng Chen could see clearly, she had disappeared without a trace.
Meng Chen was not devoted to love, but he still felt lost at this time, and it took him a long time to leave the Human Emperor Banner.
It was already noon when Meng Chen opened the room and saw a group of servants waiting outside.
They filed in and helped Meng Chen wash and dress. Then an old housekeeper came forward respectfully and said, "Sir, the master asked you to go see him after you wake up."
Meng Chen followed the old butler and came to Cui Dongsheng.
He was still the same as usual, lying in the chair and drinking tea comfortably.
"Father-in-law, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Meng Chen knew that the old man looked down on him, but because he loved Cui Xuanyu, he did not treat him harshly. Instead, he protected him a little.
Cui Dongsheng lay on the recliner, his expression solemn, "At the morning court today, His Majesty has agreed to re-compete, and the competition will be held at the Imperial City Martial Arts Arena tomorrow. Are you sure you don't want to fight for my Cui family? This is for you to prove your worth to the elders of my Cui family! If you want to marry Xuan Yu, you must endure these tests."
Meng Chen raised his eyebrows. Huang Wujin had just come to see him last night and agreed in the morning.
But... do they really know the danger involved?
Thinking that he was Cui Xuanyu's father after all, Meng Chen reminded him seriously: "Father-in-law, you are forcing the little emperor like this. Aren't you afraid that she will fight you to the death? Can you really escape unscathed by snatching meat from the tiger's mouth?"
Cui Dongsheng said nonchalantly: "She doesn't dare. For so many years, she has had to give in to whatever our family wants!"
