Chapter 264: The Concubines of the Harem: Chu Lingchuan!
Next morning in the dining room, a few people sat around the table. Atmosphere was a little awkward.
Yue Jianli, Qin Ruyan, and Lin Langyue lowered their heads like children who had done something wrong.
When they came out of Li Ran’s room last night, they bumped into Li Daoyuan one after another. At this moment, three of them were very nervous.
He was Li Ran’s father. What if he treated them as casual women?Especially Lin Langyue. Her head was about to fall into the bowl.
Last night, she had finished reading all the pamphlets.
She was greatly shocked.
Those things that she couldn’t even imagine appeared before her eyes, constantly impacting her nerves.
In the end, she did not sleep the entire night.
Li Ran was the only one who ate happily. He swung his chopsticks at the food and said vaguely, “Why aren’t you eating?”
Li Daoyuan rubbed the space between his eyebrows.You really are heartless!
He forced a smile and said, “That’s right. Everyone, eat more. Don’t be restrained.”
“Okay.”
“Thank you, Uncle Li.”
“Uncle Li, you should eat more too.”
Only then did the three of them move their chopsticks.
Qin Ruyan asked curiously, “Uncle Li, why did you say you were going to pack up and leave last night?”
Li Daoyuan sighed. “It’s nothing. I just want to take a walk.”
“Bringing luggage for a walk?”
“Well, life had to be carried with weight.” He thought about it carefully last night.
Youluo Temple, Myriad Sword Pavilion, Joyous Unity Sect, Tianshu Institute, Imperial Family… These almost covered the entire vast land’s top powers.
Where else could he run?
Although the vast land was large, there was nowhere to hide.
Li Daoyuan hesitated for a moment and looked up at Lin Langyue. “Fairy Lin, although Li Ran isn’t an evil person, he’s still a member of the Devil Dao. Aren’t you afraid of the sect’s punishment if you go around like this?”
Lin Langyue smiled. “Uncle probably doesn’t know that Sheng Zi Li is very popular in Tianshu Institute. Elders and deacons are still talking about him.”
Li Daoyuan was stunned. “There’s such a thing?”
“Of course.” Lin Langyue nodded. “Not only is he my savior, but he’s also the honored guest of White Cloud Peak that my master has acknowledged. He’s the first man to enter White Cloud Peak since the establishment of Tianshu Institute.”
Li Daoyuan looked at Li Ran, who was eating. He couldn’t come back to his senses.
No wonder this kid was so confident that he had already taken care of Tianshu Institute.
Good f*ck, was he really good at eating?
He swallowed. Because of his saliva, he said carefully, “So, Daoist Yi, wouldn’t she slap the Li family flat in anger?”
“Of course not.” Lin Langyue nodded. “Not only that, Master has been protecting Master Li.”
Qin Ruyan nodded. “I can testify to that. In order to protect Master Li, Daoist Yi had slapped our sect’s first Elder to death and even forced my master to apologize to him.”
Li Daoyuan’s mouth was wide open, and he looked shocked.
Let the Tianshu Institute’s Goddess protect him.
This kid had something.
How could Li Ran know about his mental changes? He asked, “Father, where did Qingge go? I didn’t see her yesterday.”
Li Daoyuan replied, “She’s about to break through to Nascent Soul realm. She’s cultivating in seclusion in the secret ground.”
“She’s about to break through?” Li Ran was speechless.
The last time he left, Xiao Qingge had already reached the Perfect Golden Core realm.
With her transcendent-grade talent and the powerful nature essence in the secret ground, her break through to the Nascent Soul realm was indeed within reach.
Although her cultivation speed could not be compared to his, it was already terrifying.
“Mm, I’ll help her consolidate her cultivation after she successfully breaks through.” Li Ran smirked.
At this time, the housekeeper quickly walked in. “Master, I received a letter from the palace.”
“Imperial Palace?” Li Daoyuan took the letter and opened it. He almost bit his tongue.
One could only see that the letter only had a line of large words.
[Sheng Zi Li, can you come to the palace to play with me today? I’ll wait for you]
Signature: Sheng Zhixia.
Along with the letter, there was also a jade token with a dragon carved on it. It was extraordinary.
“What a sin!” Li Daoyuan sighed.
Li Ran took a look at the letter and couldn’t help shaking his head with a bitter smile.
“Is this Flood Dragon Princess real? She directly sent the token over? Is she not afraid of losing it?”
“Forget it. Although I don’t want to go to the palace, she has already invited me twice…”
At that moment, Li Daoyuan held onto his hand tightly and said earnestly, “Li Ran, you can play, but you have to be careful. Don’t lose the Li family!”
……
After breakfast, the three women went back.
After all, they were traveling with the sect’s disciples, so it was not good for them to stay overnight.
Li Ran tidied himself up and headed towards the palace.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the palace, a eunuch stepped forward to welcome him.
He smiled and said, “Master Li, you’re here.”
Li Ran was taken aback. “You know me?”
This was an important person in the Imperial Palace. Could it be that his name had already reached this level?
Eunuch smiled and said, “Her Highness, Princess specifically said that you might come and let me wait here in advance.”
“I see.” Li Ran nodded.
He didn’t expect Sheng Zhixia to be so meticulous.
Then he showed the token. After confirming that there was no problem, the eunuch bent down and stretched out his hand. “Please.”
Li Ran asked in confusion, “Aren’t you going to bring me there?”
Eunuch explained, “Jade Flood Dragon Pavilion is an important place in the palace. This lowly one is not qualified to enter. Princess said you know the way.”
“Okay.” Li Ran nodded and walked into the palace.
According to his memories, he walked towards the princess’ sleeping quarters.
Closer he was to the Jade Flood Dragon Pavilion, the fewer males there were. In the end, not even a single eunuch could be seen. All of them were palace maids.
They looked at Li Ran curiously, but no one came forward to question him.
When he passed by a bedroom, he bumped into a woman.
That person was carrying a wine pot. Her eyes were hazy, and she didn’t even wear a pair of shoes. She just walked on the ground barefooted.
Li Ran furrowed his brows slightly. “There are still people in the palace who dare to drink during the day?”
Woman opened her eyes in a daze and was stunned when she saw him.
She rubbed her eyes and could not believe it. “You are… Li Ran?”
Li Ran was taken aback. “You know me too?”
Then, he reacted. “Princess Sheng should have told you, right? Which concubine are you?”
There were only two princesses in the Sheng Clan. Those who dared to drink here must be the concubines in the Emperor’s harem.
Who knew that the woman would laugh in disdain? “Sheng Ye isn’t worth a fart. He isn’t even worthy enough for her to be his concubine…”
Before she could finish her sentence, she froze.
One could only see Li Ran covering her mouth, frowning, and saying in a low voice, “Lower your voice. This is the Imperial Palace! If you want to curse, curse in your heart. Don’t you want to keep your head?”
Chu Lingchuan instantly woke up and was stunned.
This brat dared to touch her!
