I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 348 The Little Princess Who's Good at Tai Chi! (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)

While Li Chen and the Dragon Mother were plotting, in another hot spring...

Ao Jiao was soaking in the hot spring with a restless mind. She didn't know why, but as long as she returned to the Guixu Wuyai Sect, she could see Jun Zhantian, but she couldn't feel happy at all.

Are we going to have to go through those days again, having to follow Jun Zhantian around every single day?
Although I didn't suffer much, I certainly didn't enjoy any good fortune either.

If only life could stop on this day, so that I could live carefree in this place.

With Li Chen's thoughtful care and her mother's company.

But all of this was just Ao Jiao's wishful thinking. She knew very well that Li Chen was not her man, so how could she ask Li Chen to stay with her all the time? It was unreasonable no matter how you looked at it.

Not only Ao Jiao, but the other sea creature beauties around her were also filled with anxiety and uncertainty.

Anyway, since they arrived at this place, they have all tacitly avoided mentioning Jun Zhantian or talking about going back, as if they are all avoiding the matter.

Just as Ao Jiao buried her head in the hot spring and blew bubbles, a slender-waisted, plump 'water snake' walked over.

"Princess, what's wrong? You seem unhappy?" Po Xi naturally came to Ao Jiao's side.

Her exquisite figure was on full display, especially the swaying motion when she walked, which could steal one's soul.

Sometimes Ao Jiao also felt it was exaggerated. This woman was the same age as her and was also unmarried, so how could she have such a strong sense of a young married woman?

"It's nothing, I just haven't seen my father in a long time," Ao Jiao casually made up an excuse.

I can't just say, "I want Li Chen to come with me," can I?
As a princess of the sea tribe, she is still quite thin-skinned.

Upon hearing Ao Jiao's words, a sly glint flashed in Po Xi's eyes.

She seemed to be plotting something, or perhaps testing Ao Jiao.

The two women chatted casually for a while, and when they saw that it was almost time, Po Xi whispered, "Princess, what do you think of Young Master Li?"

These words startled Ao Jiao, and a wave appeared in the hot spring.

She looked at Po Xi with her sapphire blue eyes, wondering what Po Xi meant by asking that question.

"Young Master Li is very powerful and meticulous in his work. Although his identity is somewhat mysterious, he seems to have a strong background. Sister Nanzhi revealed that the two of them live in the capital and have a very large house."

Ao Jiao then said some words of praise for Li Chen as a token gesture.

But sometimes, facial expressions can reveal one's inner thoughts.

When Li Chen was mentioned, Ao Jiao smiled, and a look of longing appeared in her eyes.

Wu Nanzhi said at the time that their house was very big and that Ao Jiao and others were welcome to visit.

Of course, this only welcomes Ao Jiao and others, not Jun Zhantian.

Ao Jiao and Po Xi kept pulling at each other, saying some ambiguous things, and the topic always revolved around Li Chen.

Nobody wants to reveal their true thoughts, for fear that the other party might discover their secrets, which would be incredibly embarrassing.
Po Xi thought that this little princess was really discreet. She wanted to trick her into saying whether she had feelings for Li Chen, but she kept dodging the question and wouldn't say anything.

Po Xi is actually better able to understand her own feelings than Ao Jiao.

She followed Jun Zhantian simply because she thought he was powerful, good-looking, and had a strong background.

As a rogue cultivator, who wouldn't want to find a powerful backer in this cutthroat world of cultivation?

To reiterate, if she hadn't met Li Chen, Po Xi thought Jun Zhantian was actually alright, except for not touching them. But now that the more outstanding Li Chen has appeared, Po Xi feels that wouldn't it be better for her to be with Li Chen?

Therefore, during the journey with Li Chen, Po Xi was relatively close to him.

To be honest, if there weren't other beautiful sea creatures around, Po Xi might have already thrown herself into Li Chen's arms.

She knew that Li Chen had feelings for her, because Li Chen was a normal man!

Moreover, Wu Nanzhi had told her that Li Chen had more than one woman, so he definitely wouldn't be hostile towards her. Therefore, being with Li Chen was the best choice.

Since the little princess is pretending to be stupid, Po Xi might as well just lay her cards on the table.

"Do you plan to return to the Guixu Wuya Sect?" Po Xi asked, staring into Ao Jiao's eyes.

"If we don't go back, where else can we go?" Ao Jiao seemed to be continuing to dodge the question.

“Then it must be following Young Master Li. It’s much more comfortable by Young Master Li’s side than by Jun Zhantian’s side.” Po Xi didn’t experience the deeper level of comfort, but she could imagine it.

These words startled Ao Jiao. She had only thought about it for a moment and felt that something was wrong, but who knew that Po Xi would actually say it out loud.

After a long silence, Ao Jiao organized her thoughts and said, "How could you do this? How can you face the Divine Son Jun?"

This was indeed a psychological burden for Ao Jiao. After all, she had already decided on Jun Zhantian, so how could she change her mind?

Shouldn't all women of our sea tribe be like this?

Hearing this, Po Xi puffed out her chest and said confidently, "What do we owe him? Besides, so what if we are sorry? Jun Zhantian has so many women around him, some of whom came before us, and he hasn't touched a single one of them. Are we supposed to live like widows for him?"

These words made Ao Jiao understand Po Xi's purpose: she simply didn't want to live a life of widowhood.

If Po Xi had said this at any other time, Ao Jiao would definitely have given her a cold rebuttal.

But things are different now. She also feels that Li Chen is better, but she just can't get over it in her heart.

Po Xi did give her a reason. You see, Jun Zhantian was in grave danger in the Dragon Palace's treasury at the time, and it was she who released him. She could be considered to have done Jun Zhantian a favor, and she really didn't owe him anything.

If she could choose, she would definitely choose Li Chen, without a doubt.

Seeing that Ao Jiao was still hesitating, Po Xi added fuel to the fire, saying, "Anyway, I plan to express my feelings to Young Master Li here. Once Young Master Li leaves, I will never have this opportunity again."

These words made Ao Jiao feel a little pressured, and she lowered her head and said, "But, but..."

But after a long time, she still couldn't speak.

Po Xi thought that Ao Jiao's mind was still not changed, so she sighed and said, "Then forget it, I won't force you. Everyone has their own ambitions. You can go to Jun Shenzi if you want. It's my choice."

To everyone's surprise, Ao Jiao quickly waved her hand and explained, "That's not what I meant. I just wanted to say that with my mother here, I wouldn't dare to act so recklessly. She has always been teaching me."

You can just give it away for free, but my mom's here. If I give it away for free, she'll beat me to death!
Upon hearing this, Po Xi realized it was nothing more than a trivial matter; she had thought she was talking about something else entirely.

Percy climbed out of the hot spring, searched through her clothes for a while, and pulled out a bottle.

"This is a potion I developed myself. It can put anyone below the Saint Realm into a deep sleep after inhaling it. Don't misunderstand, I used to be a rogue cultivator and I value my life very much."

She's not some spoiled princess like Ao Jiao; she's venturing out to sea all by herself, so she definitely needs some life-saving items.

Po Xi whispered her plan in Ao Jiao's ear: during dinner, Po Xi would pour wine for the other sea creature beauties, while Ao Jiao would pour wine for her mother. Once everyone else was drunk, the two of them could begin their plan to give away free wine.
