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

Chapter 379 What? The real female lead has arrived? (Please subscribe and vote with monthly tickets)
"Qingxia, you're still young and don't understand many things."

Yu Jing gently patted Qiu Qingxia's slender back and continued to comfort her in a soft voice: "Mother knows you like Jun Zhantian. Actually, when I was your age, I was about the same as you. But later I gradually realized that there are many men who can't be yours just because you want them."

She said this to her daughter, but wasn't she also saying it to herself?

"Jun Zhantian is indeed outstanding, but like his father Jun Wuhui, he is pursuing the elusive path to immortality, something no ordinary woman can achieve. In this vast world, there are countless young talents with even greater talent and higher status than Jun Zhantian. Why waste your time on him?"

Yu Jing's words were merely to comfort Qiu Qingxia; in truth, even she herself didn't believe that there was any man in this world who could surpass the talent of the Jun family father and son.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been so infatuated with Jun Wuhui for so many years.

"But."

Qiu Chunxia wanted to say something, but Yu Jing gently pressed her finger against her red lips. The words she wanted to ask her mother about how to pursue a man were stuck in her throat.

Yu Jing didn't want to listen to Qiu Chunxia's explanations, because even as a mother, she knew that unless Jun Wu Hui didn't favor her, he was simply impeccable from a woman's perspective.

Handsome, mysterious, powerful, and confident—all these qualities could drive any woman in the world crazy. Even though she was long past her youthful days, she still couldn't let go of her feelings for Jun Wuhui.

Last night, she also tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Several times she even had the impulse to disregard her dignity and beg Jun Wu Hui to favor her, not to mention her daughter's budding affection for Jun Zhan Tian.

To put it bluntly, she was lonely too.

……

Shanghe City.

Li Chen had enjoyed a period of carefree living, but then, remembering his mission, he took Luo Qimeng and Luo Zixi to the ruins of Luoshui Manor.

That place was a place that saddened them both; it was a place of corpses and bloodshed, filled with painful memories.

If Li Chen hadn't accompanied them, they wouldn't be as relaxed as they are now.

As for Jiang Mo, she has returned to the sect and her strength has improved, so she should be taking on some positions.

Jiang Rong remained the same, organizing the Chamber of Commerce and the Jiang family's businesses in Shanghe City.

As for Wei Manping and the women of the Wei family, they naturally went to the palace to report and await Li Chen's return.

On his way to Luoshui Manor, Li Chen pondered the significance of this mission.

If the system determines that I am in the mid-stage of the Void Realm, this task should not be too difficult.

"Over the years, has your Luoshui Manor had any particularly special figures? That is, members of your Luo family's direct line, not necessarily alive, but dead or missing."

Hearing Li Chen ask this, Luo Qimeng pondered for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty, I remember there was a girl named Luo Xi, but Luo Xi had a problem. Although she was a Holy Body, she was a useless Holy Body and could not cultivate. She suffered from the exclusion of her family members since she was a child, so her mother took her away from the family."

Here, Luo Qimeng began to add a piece of 'knowledge': according to the genetics of the Holy Body, the women of the Luo family can indeed give birth to children of the Holy Body, but if the man is not, there is nothing that can be done.

Luo Xi's mother is from the Luo family, but her father is a mystery. Luo Xi takes her mother's surname.

It is said that her father is expected to break through to the Saint Realm, but that is just a rumor, and no one knows for sure who he is.

Moreover, in the Tian Ce Dynasty, there are supposedly many people who have the potential to break through to the Saint Realm, but whether they can actually do so is another matter entirely.

Luo Xi's mother never revealed who her father was, only saying that he would come to pick them up the day he reached the Saint Realm.

It sounds like a grand love story, or a story of a naive young girl being deceived.

According to Li Chen's understanding, Luo Xi's father must also be powerful; otherwise, how could he possibly be interested in a woman as beautiful and discerning as Luo Xi? At the time, the family head said that Luo Xi's mother was immoral, and many disciples in the family were also cursing Luo Xi as a bastard.

Hearing this, Li Chen felt it made sense.

In his view, Luo Xi's physique must be extraordinary, because a newborn baby cannot withstand such great fortune, so the Heavenly Dao will impose shackles.

As Luo Xi grows up, the shackles will loosen, and once they are broken, it will surely cause an earth-shattering event.

Of course, if you can't solve it, you're just a useless person.

It seems the system wants me to find this guy and take her as my woman? Is this the female lead the system matched me with?
This wasn't just Li Chen's wild speculation, because Li Chen possessed the power of the Heavenly Dao, which was the key to unlocking the shackles of the Heavenly Dao.

If I help Luo Xi remove her shackles, she will definitely be grateful and it would be normal for her to offer herself to me in return.

Most importantly, since the Luo family was destroyed by the Wang family, whether Luo Xi wants to avenge her family or find the Luo family's 'inheritance', being with the 'prince' is definitely a good choice.

Aren't they a match made in heaven?

But now Li Chen is the emperor, all he needs to do is find Luo Xi.

Since the system sent me to this place, there must be a way to find Luo Xi.

Just as Li Chen was pondering how to find Luo Xi, cultivators kept appearing around him.

Luo Qimeng, being very sensible, stepped forward to ask what had happened. The cultivators explained that the Hongmen Manor's Grand Pride Competition was about to begin, and it was said that the champion would also gain the qualification to enter the forbidden area of ​​Hongmen Manor.

The next day is dawn.

Qiu Qingxia slowly woke up from Yu Jing's embrace. She shifted her body, bringing herself closer to Yu Jing's heart, which distorted her voluptuous figure.

"Qingxia is awake?"

Yu Jing reached out and touched Qiu Qingxia's hair.

That night, the mother and daughter talked all night long. Yu Jing could clearly feel that the shackles that had been like a dead end in her daughter's heart had loosened a little.

It's hard to persuade others, and even though Yu Jing managed to convince her daughter, Jun Wu Hui's place in her heart never wavered.

"Mother, I still want to go to Hongmen Manor to watch the Grand Competition of the Prodigies."

Qiu Qingxia clung tightly to her mother, her large eyes sparkling.

She listened to some of Yu Jing's advice, but she simply did not believe that there was a man in the world more outstanding than Jun Zhantian.

Moreover, the women around Jun Zhantian are just his followers, not his bedmates. Why shouldn't she have a chance?
"Why are you bothering?"

Yu Jing was taken aback. Was her daughter just as stubborn as she was? Had she wasted her whole night arguing?
"Even if there is no man as outstanding as the Divine Son in the world, anyone who can catch my eye must at least be half as good as the Divine Son. If he is not even half as good, I would rather stay single with my mother."

Qiu Qingxia wriggled her little head in Yu Jing's arms.

"Okay, Mother will take it as you trying to make Mother happy."

Yu Jing gently stroked Qiu Qingxia's nose, her face full of a loving and gratified smile.

The problem is, Jun Zhantian is just as outstanding as his father. Is there really anyone of his generation who can match even half of his talent?
