Starting with the Magic Absorption Technique: I swept through the fantasy world.

"Now that it's out there, it's hard to change it. A maid is a maid. After all, in your past life you were a divine beast and a senior. I wouldn't dare to really treat you as a maid."

“Your Majesty, we all come from the same place. It’s just that the five of us couldn’t take human form there. But we’ve been in this manor for over a thousand years, so we consider it home and can be considered family. The young masters of the manor have always treated us well. You can call us your elders or your old servants.”

Wang Mu sighed helplessly, "Forget it, I won't dwell on this. I'm afraid I'll give myself away in front of others."

Xiao Bai chuckled, "I'm afraid that clever princess will find out."

"Princess Lixue?"

"If it wasn't her, who else could it be? Are you still angry with her?" Xiaobai asked.

Wang Mu sighed, "Never mind her. When you came to the academy, didn't any of the old men and women look for you?"

"Of course I have. I came on the first day. But I need to leave him alone for one night, otherwise he'll just treat me like an ordinary magical beast."

"Who's coming?"

"Dean Tang En."

Wang Mu exclaimed in surprise, "You even alerted that old guy?"

Xiao Bai looked disdainful. "This kid did see through my identity, but he was quite sensible and didn't say anything. He left the academy again after a couple of days and hasn't come back since."

"The divine beast is still the best." Wang Mu gave a thumbs up.

"Don't underestimate yourself. In the thousands of years of the manor, the young masters of each generation have been mysterious and could not be as simple as they seem. Although you have only integrated a part of the memories now, you will know that you are much stronger than us five divine beasts when you have fully integrated them."

Wang Mu nodded. "Sometimes I think that my coming to this world as Wang Mu might be an arrangement by God."

"Hehe, people don't know that the way of Heaven has arranged a path for everyone, just like a passageway, you can only move forward."

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Xiao Bai smiled and said, "The two little ones are here. Go open the door quickly."

Wang Mu opened the door. In front of him was Princess Li Yili, and behind him was Princess Lixue.

"Your Majesty, you're finally back!" Li Yili exclaimed joyfully upon seeing him.

Wang Mu was not genuinely happy to see Li Yili again.

From the moment he helped her retrieve the letter, especially after she told him about the princess's uncle, a rift developed in his heart towards the princess. He realized that she didn't truly like him, but rather used him. Even if she did, it was for possession. She was selfish and scheming.

He forced a smile and nodded, but his smile vanished as he addressed the princess behind him, saying indifferently, "Princess Lixue, may I ask what brings you here?"

"me……"

Lixue could clearly sense the emperor's unwelcomeness and knew that he was still angry with her.

Little did she know, Wang Mu had decided to sever ties with her.

The matter of General Wu Lande made him think a lot. Who knows if something like this will happen again? He knew all too well the princess's feelings for him. If he really had to choose between the two in front of him, he would definitely choose Princess Lixue.

It wasn't because the princess's status was more noble, but because the princess's feelings were pure, without causing any misunderstanding or discomfort. However, he knew that he had to harden his heart now, perhaps this would be better in the future.

Lixue fought back tears, her voice tinged with sorrow and fear, "I'm fine."

She was overjoyed to know that the emperor had returned safely and that she had met him in person. However, he rejected her without hesitation, and she knew that she could not gain the emperor's forgiveness. Therefore, she had no choice but to leave.

As she turned around, tears fell to the ground, and she forced herself to go downstairs.

Wang Mu glanced at it, feeling a pang of sadness. After closing the door, he forced a smile. Xiao Bai noticed this and had no choice but to speak with the princess in his place.

Soon, Li Yili also sensed Wang Mu's low spirits. Knowing that the emperor still cared about Princess Lixue, her jealousy intensified. She thought that when she returned, she would have to add fuel to the fire and make things even more complicated between Lixue and the emperor, ideally turning them into complete strangers.

After the princess left, Xiaobai asked, "Your Majesty, why are you doing this? You clearly have feelings for Princess Lixue, but you insist on suppressing them. Is it because of what happened with her uncle?"

Wang Mu sighed, "That's not all. Anyway, I feel that rather than becoming enemies in the future, it's better to go our separate ways now, so that when we turn against each other later, it won't be even more painful for both of us."

"How did you know you would become enemies?" Xiaobai asked in surprise.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these troublesome things," Wang Mu said. "You haven't caused any trouble at the academy, have you?"

"Why do you think that way? Besides, I'm not as powerful as you. Everyone in the academy calls you a demon, a jinx. Even when they ask you, they're afraid and dare not mention you." Wang Mu couldn't help but laugh. "Isn't that a good thing?"

Wang Mu asked, "After you hit someone, didn't they come after you to bother you again?"

"They dare."

"By the way, Xiaobai, are you going to use your palm or your spiritual power?"

"Speaking of this, I might need your help to take a look."

"what happened?"

Xiao Bai said, "Having lived in the manor for over a thousand years, we've been exposed to all kinds of martial arts, both outside and within the manor, and we've memorized them all."

"Back then, we were beasts and couldn't take human form, so we couldn't use those moves. Now that I'm in human form, I can mimic those moves, but I can't use the internal energy cultivation method."

"Aren't you in human form now? Why are you still having questions?"

Xiao Bai explained, "Silly, although I have transformed into human form, I don't have a dantian in my body. In the end, I still have the body of a beast inside, only my appearance is human."

Wang Mu slapped his forehead. "Alright, I've learned something new. Let me take a look inside your body first."

Xiao Bai sat down and placed her hands on the table. Wang Mu sat opposite her, and after taking her hand, he channeled his inner force into her body and discovered that Xiao Bai's meridians were completely different from those of a human.

He thought to himself that humans were very different from beasts, and that he came from another world with a body structure that was basically the same as that of humans in this world.

"What's wrong?" Xiaobai asked when he saw him withdraw his hand.

Wang Mu was somewhat embarrassed, "It's impossible to find out. Your internal structure is completely different. I'm afraid it might hurt you."

"It seems I won't be able to cultivate internal energy anymore," Xiaobai said with some regret.

Wang Mu casually asked, "Do you usually experience any unusual symptoms in your body, or what do you use to sustain your energy?"

"A beast core."

"Did you use the energy of your inner core in those techniques?"

Xiao Bai recalled, "It seems there was a bit of that, but the energy couldn't get through, and it seemed impossible to synchronize."

Wang Mu grabbed Xiaobai's hand and asked, "Is there something flowing like dripping water?"

"Yes."

"Try using your inner core to activate it."

Xiao Bai activated the beast core within his body, and the resulting fluctuations were immediately captured by Wang Mu. Not long after, he withdrew his attack.
