Outside Qianqing Palace.

Chu Ning, who was basking in the sun, suddenly shivered.

What happened?

It felt like someone was whispering behind my back, asking me to do the math...

Oh, it’s my wife, then it’s okay.

Chu Ning didn't care and just continued to rest.

He had no intention of showing off his skills, just to avoid scaring others.

But if you ask, I will definitely tell the truth. Whoever comes is the Immortal Emperor, and whoever comes is an otherworldly master. Anyway, I won't hide it.

However, Chu Ning, who was about to continue lying down, suddenly noticed someone coming.

The means of traveling through space that breaks apart is the cultivation of Poxus, is it Ye Qinglian?

Chu Ning raised his head excitedly, thinking that Ye Qinglian couldn't wait to ask him for advice, but when he opened his eyes, he saw...

An old man with a sour face stood not far away, staring at him.

Chu Ning twitched the corner of his mouth.

"Old sir, I'm just basking in the sun here. I hope I haven't violated any of the clan's rules."

Fang Houren got angry when he saw the boy's frivolous and careless attitude.

"Didn't His Majesty give you the core technique of the Ye family? Why don't you practice it?"

"A hermit master, do I still need to practice? Honestly, His Majesty actually praised me for my rapid training speed."

Chu Ning casually swung out a sword intent.

"Look, how's the progress now?"

Then, continue to lie down and bask in the sun.

"Ha! It's nothing more than the most basic sword skills. You are so smug about your slight achievement. Don't you feel ashamed of His Majesty?"

"What is there to be ashamed of? At least in the eyes of His Majesty, she thinks that I am practicing faster. What does it have to do with you?"

The old man was speechless for a moment. He really wanted to attack him, but was afraid that he would beat him to death. He just couldn't stand the sight of him.

Your Majesty has such great qualifications, status, appearance and temperament, yet he is about to be taken advantage of by this person!

God is so cruel!!

Although he was a royal attendant, he had served the royal family for a hundred years and had watched Ye Qinglian grow up since she was a child. He looked at her as an elder, but he was really angry when he saw that Chu Ning was not serious at all.

However, the old man did not come here for this purpose. He just grabbed a few words from Chu Ning, the hermit, and started to speak.

"Haha, a hermit master?

"Today, I heard Xiao Bing say that you helped her break through with just a few simple pointers?"

"uh-huh?"

"I am not talented, but I have practiced for five hundred years. Now I am at the peak of the Void Breaking Realm, just one step away from breaking through!"

The burly old man exuded an extremely powerful aura, staring straight at Chu Ning.

The latter didn't even open his eyes.

"Then you are indeed untalented. You still need to practice."

Fang Houren almost vomited blood!

"Boy, how dare you! You rely on your status as an emperor to look down on me. Do you have the guts to go and explain this to His Majesty? Let's have a fight and see who is less talented, you or me!"

Chu Ning sighed and turned over.

"Old man, you were the one who said you were untalented. I didn't mean to look down on you. I just affirmed your statement. You're just looking for trouble. If you really don't have anything to do, how about leaving me alone for a while?"

Fang Houren snorted coldly and restrained his momentum.

"I came here only for one sentence."

"You once said that if you entered the celestial phenomena, you would see the sky as if you were a mayfly, and that you could break through the realm by just touching Xiaobing. Today, I have come here to test your depth according to the order of His Majesty."

Only after hearing the word "Your Majesty" did Chu Ning open his eyes.

"Qinglian asked the old man to come?"

"Of course."

The old man looked at Chu Ning calmly.

"I am now only one step away from breaking through the Wuji realm. Since you have such a high level of cultivation and can guide Xiao Bing, do you have the ability to guide me?"

Chu Ning's mouth twitched and he rolled his eyes.

"What's your attitude? If you want to give me advice, at least show some attitude. Even if you are the one Qinglian recognizes, I don't recognize you."

Who is Xiaobing?

Wingman, intelligence provider!

Then what benefits did I give to Xiao Bingdian?

What about you? You're a Gou Ba!

Why should I bother with you?

Even if you have to rely on connections to gain some benefits, not to mention serving tea or giving leg massages, at least be sincere in your attitude.

Fang Houren was so angry that he laughed.

"If you can guide this old man, wouldn't that prove your strength and realm? Now His Majesty is also doubting whether your cultivation level is really that high. Isn't this an opportunity to prove yourself?"

"Why should I prove myself, or prove it to you? Qinglian and I have already talked about this?"

The old man’s answer was simple and straightforward!

"Don't believe in smoke without a whim!"

"That's your problem, it has nothing to do with me, right?"

Fang Houren curled the corners of his mouth, looked at Chu Ning with a smile, and did not delve into the matter any further.

"If you say so, then I understand. I'm afraid that you just happened to be bumped into by Xiao Bing today and want to use this to establish your identity. What you said just now was nothing more than an explanation to delay. In fact, you don't have such strength at all, right?"

"Don't try to provoke Mr. Pharaoh. Why don't you be more sincere and call me senior? Maybe if I'm happy, your Wuji Dao will have a chance of success."

"You want me to call you senior? Do you know my seniority?"

"That's fine. From Qinglian's perspective, it's only right for me to call you old gentleman, but when it comes to cultivation, there's nothing wrong with you calling me senior."

Chu Ning smiled, nonchalantly, and continued to lie back down.

"You can tell Qinglian that if you really want to know something, you can come and ask me in person. Why bother to test me with you, right?"

"Haha! Chu Ning, I have already seen through your true identity. You are nothing but a lunatic and a talker. Coming here today is a waste of my time!"

The old man laughed loudly, as if he had seen through Chu Ning, but it couldn't be said that he had seen through him, because he had always felt that Chu Ning was just that kind of person.

After saying that, Fang Houren left immediately, as if he felt that there was no need at all.

Chu Ning also didn't care.

When one's cultivation and strength reach a certain level, rumors are nothing more than trivial matters.

When I suspect you have a nuclear bomb, you better actually have one.

With the sword in hand, whether you doubt it or not has nothing to do with me.

But you're going to attack me.

Then you have to consider whether a nuclear bomb will really fall on your head.

The aura of a great country is... Chu Ning quickly pulled his thoughts back and went off topic.

The sun is warm and the breeze is gentle, it's a good time to lie down and rest.

Well... there are not many memorials today, so my wife has to handle them herself. If you want to be busy, just be busy. It won’t be tiring.

A cloud blocked the sun.

Chu Ning waved away the mist and fell asleep while basking in the sun.

Chu Ning had a dream.

In the dream, Ye Qinglian was not dealing with the memorials, but suddenly came and stood in front of him, looking at the hermit with a smile.

However, suddenly someone shook him.

Xiao Bing said awkwardly, "Emperor, His Majesty is here, please don't sleep..."

Eh? Not a dream?

Ye Qinglian narrowed her eyes slightly.

"The hermit is still sleeping? He didn't even notice I was coming?"

Chu Ning waved his hands helplessly.

"We have to be on guard day and night. We can just be on guard against outsiders, but why should we be on guard against our own people?"

"Oh, that's a good reason. It won't ruin the image of the master."

"That's natural."

Ye Qinglian suddenly lowered her head, feeling a little embarrassed, but when she thought about how Chu Ning had succeeded this morning, she seemed to have nothing to be embarrassed about.

"I'm... a little hungry. Can we have lunch earlier today?"

Chu Ning paused and was overjoyed!

"Easy to say, easy to say!"
