The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

Ye Qianxuan used up half of the Human Sect's top-level elixir, the Great Rejuvenation Pill, without any hesitation.

Cheng Zhushou and Kong Zhongzhi both had complicated expressions.

But Ye Qianxuan was very relaxed. He took a long breath and then rested his forehead on Chu Yao's head:

"never mind."

Chu Yao instantly recalled what had happened, then hugged Ye Qianxuan with both hands and burst into tears.

"Master...Master..."

Chu Yao called out again and again, and it really made Ye Qianxuan feel distressed.

Ye Haomo!

If I don’t kill you, I will not be a human being!

Cheng Zhushou couldn't help but shake his head when he saw the deep affection between master and servant.

It seems that we can't drink this wine today.

Ye Qianxuan was willing to use half a pill of the Human Clan's top-tier elixir, the Great Huan Dan, to treat this maid, so how could he possibly abandon her to drink with them?!

"My friend, since you are so busy, let's get together again when we have the chance!"

"I'll take my leave!"

Cheng Zhushou and Kong Zhongzhi bowed at the same time, then turned and left.

"You two, walk slowly."

Ye Qianxuan said respectfully, then hugged Chu Yao and looked towards the direction of General Hongxiu's residence...

……

General Hongxiu's Mansion.

Xia Ruoxi didn't sleep all night again. She stared at the night sky blankly all night until her eyes were sore.

She thought a lot that night.

Xia Ruoxi did feel a little regretful about breaking off the engagement with Ye Qianxuan.

Especially during the Qianqiu Festival, when she saw how powerful Ye Qianxuan was and how he was tightly embraced by the Ninth Princess, and then looked back at her current situation, she felt very uncomfortable.

Ye Qianxuan has been making rapid progress, while Ye Haomo has been stagnant.

But she knew that she and Ye Qianxuan could never go back to the past.

I guess Ye Qianxuan hates her to death now!

The determination of Ye Qianxuan when he came to General Hongxiu's mansion with the gold and silk to slap him in the face is still vivid in people's minds.

Those scenes really shattered all of Xia Ruoxi's fantasies.

Since the two of them are no longer possible, why bother?

Xia Ruoxi has never been a person who is entangled.

She decided to work hard with Ye Haomo.

Let’s create a better future together.

Ye Haomo and Ye Qianxuan are brothers.

Since Ye Qianxuan is so talented in all aspects, Ye Haomo must have some as well, right?

Even though Ye Haomo is suppressed now and is just an editor at Anlu Academy, he is very smart and will definitely not remain silent forever!

When the opportunity comes, I will definitely make a comeback.

And she will also teach Ye Haomo well.

We must train Ye Haomo to become a great scholar!

When the time comes, she will prove her vision to everyone!

Prove she was right!

By then, Ye Qianxuan will definitely look up to me and regret it!

Let her enjoy the supreme glory!

Having made up her mind, Xia Ruoxi jumped out of bed, without even having breakfast, and went straight to find Ye Haomo!

But when they pushed open Ye Haomo's room, they found that Ye Haomo's face was pale, his eyes were black, there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and he was holding a banner used for funerals in his hand!

"Hao Mo! What are you doing!?"

Xia Ruoxi asked with a frown on her face, her beautiful eyes fixed on the strange banner.

Ye Haomo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and endured the backlash of Ye Qianxuan's sword slashing through the illusion. He stood up and asked with concern:

"Ruoxi, didn't you get enough rest last night? You have such heavy dark circles under your eyes!"

Being interrupted by Ye Haomo, Xia Ruoxi forgot to continue asking about the banner and just shook her head and said:

"I am fine."

"It's just that seeing Ye Qianxuan's rapid rise to prominence, I feel a little uncomfortable."

"But I believe this is just a temporary setback for us, and it doesn't mean we will be forever defeated!"

"As long as you and I work hard enough, when the opportunity comes, I believe we will definitely stand higher than Ye Qianxuan!"

Xia Ruoxi comforted her solemnly.

Ye Haomo nodded weakly.

In this confrontation, even with the help of the soul-summoning banner that contained thirty-two people, he was still no match for Ye Qianxuan, which made him feel a little sad.

At this moment, a servant hurried in and reported: "General! The Minister of Justice, Sun Jingming, has arrived and specifically asked to see Ye Xiuzhuan!"

Hearing this, Xia Ruoxi was shocked and her face was overjoyed: "Hao Mo! Look at what I said! I knew you could do it!"

"The Minister of Justice is preparing to help you!"

"Follow me quickly!"

Xia Ruoxi hurriedly pulled Ye Haomo up and walked towards the main hall!

Could today be the day they turn the tables?

"Greetings to Minister Sun!"

"Haha! General Hongxiu!"

As soon as they entered the main hall, the Minister of Justice and Xia Ruoxi greeted each other.

But when Sun Jingming's gaze fell on Ye Haomo, he showed a sneer.

"Minister Sun! Are you looking for my Hao Mo? Do you have something important to tell me?"

Xia Ruoxi spoke directly to the point.

Minister Sun nodded: "I came here to pass on a message!"

"Ye Xiuzhuan, Master Li asked me to tell you that the Soul Summoning Banner still needs a female cultivator at the Transformation Realm to complete it!"

"Once the matter is done, you can go to the place you agreed on."

"Infinite glory and wealth are waiting for you."

After finishing speaking, Minister Sun of the Ministry of Justice turned and left.

Leaving behind were Ye Haomo with squinting eyes and Xia Ruoxi with a confused look on her face.

"Lord Li? Which Lord Li? What's the agreed destination?"

Xia Ruoxi looked at Ye Haomo and asked in confusion.

Ye Haomo looked at Xia Ruoxi, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

Now that his soul-summoning banner had lost all its spiritual power after being cut by Ye Qianxuan with a single blow, it would be a pipe dream for him to defeat a female cultivator in the Transformation Realm and take her into the banner at the same time!

But isn’t there such a person right in front of us?

Ye Haomo immediately regained his gentlemanly demeanor and said to Xia Ruoxi with a smile, "He's a great scholar and hermit from our Anlu Academy! He has great influence in the court and has promised me countless wealth and glory!"

"Ruoxi, believe me, I will definitely make you successful and give you a life a thousand times better than Ye Qianxuan's!"

Hearing this, Xia Ruoxi's face was filled with joy.

As expected, it’s Ye Haomo!

She knew she had seen the right person!

Ye Haomo is indeed climbing up all the time!

"So...is there anything you need from me?"

"Or, do we need to give a generous gift to that Lord Li?"

Xia Ruoxi asked with concern.

She knew that Ye Haomo was smart and must have his own ways to climb up.

Unexpectedly, it came so quickly.

"We do need to give some gifts. How much money do we have?"

Ye Haomo asked softly.

"Now there are a total of 100,000 taels of silver. I will ask the accountant to give you 80,000 taels. With such a great opportunity, you must not be stingy!"

Xia Ruoxi fully supported Ye Haomo and really took out all her savings. She immediately asked the accountant to bring over a silver note of 80,000 taels.

"good good good good!"

Ye Haomo took the banknote, was ecstatic, and hugged Xia Ruoxi.

Xia Ruoxi also leaned on Ye Haomo, and called out "Haomo" with extremely rare tenderness. When she was about to imagine a bright future with Ye Haomo, Ye Haomo stretched out his finger and forced Xia Ruoxi to raise her head.

"Ruoxi, I still need one thing. If you give me this thing, countless wealth and glory will fall upon me!"

Ye Haomo smiled at Xia Ruoxi.

"It's okay, just tell me, I will do my best to help you, whatever you want, I can give it to you!"

Xia Ruoxi felt sweet in her heart at the moment, and spoke softly, not at all like that impetuous general!

At this moment, she was already overwhelmed by the fantasy of becoming famous!

"Whether you need connections or resources, I'll give them to you. Speaking of which, how much influence does Lord Li hold in the court..."

However, before she could finish her words, she suddenly felt a chill in her chest!
