destiny eternal calamity

Li Wei instructed Xiao Shuying to contact the princess's residence to dispose of the assassin's body.

If Li Wei were to handle the aftermath himself, it would definitely involve reporting to the authorities, going through procedures, and giving a statement, which would be very troublesome.

Princess Yuzhen's residence has the "Yuzhen Guard" system, which allows it to intervene in the security of the capital to a certain extent.

In this situation, the Princess's residence could handle it cleanly without needing to consult the Dragon Guard or the Five Cities Garrison.

As for whether the Crown Prince will find out about the relationship between the Li family and the Princess's residence, that's no longer a concern.

Anyway, the "Da Li Weekly" will be published soon, and the relationship between the Li family, the owners of Wenhai Pavilion, and the Princess's Mansion will definitely be discovered then.

Therefore, there is no need to hide it anymore.

Nighttime, Li Wei's bedroom.

Xiao Shuying prepared the medicinal bath and then called Li Wei over.

Li Wei obediently took off his clothes and entered the bathtub.

"If you're in pain, just shout it out. I've sealed off the airflow in this room, so your voice won't get through."

"Understood, Aunt Ying."

Li Wei stood up and let Xiao Shuying insert acupuncture needles.

Xiao Shuying's technique was as swift and precise as ever.

After Li Wei re-immersed himself in the medicinal liquid, the places where the silver needles were inserted soon began to burn with pain again.

It wasn't that Li Wei had a weak will; the feeling was like holding a flame and burning his finger.

Xiao Shuying felt sorry for him when she saw how upset he was.

For some reason, she had a natural affection for Li Wei.

In Li Wei's words, this is a case of maternal love having nowhere to go.

She was already at the age of becoming a mother when she happened to meet Li Wei, a talented and handsome young man who captured her heart.

I subconsciously treated him like my son.

Seeing her concerned expression, Li Wei's heart stirred.

"Um, give me a little stimulation, maybe I can distract myself."

"How do you want to stimulate him?" Xiao Shuying asked anxiously, looking at Li Wei's face, which was struggling to maintain a normal expression.

"I told you, Aunt Ying, you're not allowed to hit me."

"Okay." Xiao Shuying leaned closer to Li Wei, pretending to listen.

"..." Li Wei stated his needs in a refined manner.

Xiao Shuying blushed and her expression changed several times.

Then she stood up, intending to ignore him.

But seeing the little guy wincing in pain, I felt a pang of pity.

Although the acupuncture and medicinal bath were for his own good, it was indeed his own suggestion. It was really going too far for him to kill without burying the dead.

She never expected that the secret method she had read about in ancient books would have such severe side effects.

After hesitating for a moment, she leaned down and approached Li Wei.

"Don't take off your clothes, don't use your hands, and be careful not to touch the silver needles."

Li Wei was speechless for a moment, thinking, "Then all I can do is spit on you, right?"

Oh well, we have to take things one step at a time, and we still need to eat.

"Huh?!"

The sound of the medicine being stirred could be heard from inside the room, along with suppressed breathing.

Xiao Shuying looked up at the roof, her mind a complete mess.

She originally wanted to shut down her consciousness, but in the end, she didn't want to deceive herself anymore.

Although there were clothes between them, it was still an experience she had never had before, which made her feel a little helpless.

But after a while, as if she had found a suitable psychological suggestion, an aura of loving kindness emanated from her.

……

Half an hour later.

This time, Li Wei had a treasure to distract him, so he didn't faint and cleaned himself up.

As soon as he let go, Xiao Shuying vanished into thin air.

In the following days, Li Wei spent his days brewing wine and familiarizing himself with the martial arts techniques.

In the evenings, I receive acupuncture and Aunt Ying's treatments, making my days very fulfilling.

Three days later, upon hearing that the Da Li Weekly was about to be published, Li Wei rushed to Wen Hai Pavilion early in the morning.

"Young master, please take a look. Is there anything else that needs to be revised?" Boss Cheng handed Li Wei a sample copy.

Li Wei began to read it carefully.

The newspaper material is too stiff; this needs improvement. After all, a newspaper that can't be used to wipe your bottom isn't a good newspaper.

Li Wei had already made demands of Boss Cheng on the paper mill, but research and development takes time, and the paper mill couldn't produce the paper Li Wei needed in a short period of time.

We'll just have to make do with it for now.

The front of the newspaper was full of news.

On the left are reports on the Dali policy and officials' achievements, which are very "politically correct," while on the right are underworld news.

The news mainly concerns the Great Li Jianghu, but there are also two stories about the Great Wei.

Li Wei knew that the princess's residence had a very strong intelligence network, so he observed very carefully.

One of the lines on the left caught his attention.

The Wei delegation will arrive in Dali capital soon, possibly with the intention of a marriage alliance.

"A marriage alliance... Thinking about it, the only suitable princess for the royal family seems to be Long Xiaoxiao. I wonder what Long Bilin's attitude is towards this matter."

"However, it is also possible that he is just asking to marry a princess."

Putting that aside, Li Wei turned his attention to the right.

"Abbot Liaokong of Donglin Temple failed to transcend his tribulation and unfortunately passed away. Abbot Liaoyuan succeeded him."

"The Five Immortals Sect has successfully cultivated the Truth-Spitting Gu and announced to the world that everyone is welcome to rent this Gu. The Five Immortals Sect will provide a complete Gu-planting service."

"The Great Wei Kongsang Sect is once again selecting a Holy Son, but no one has passed the test."

……

Um, how come there's a GG in the first episode? Princess, how much money did you get from the Five Immortals Sect?

Turning the newspaper over, you'll find two lists on the back that could potentially shake the entire world.

The "Hidden Talents List" on the left consists of young talents under the age of thirty.

The names of these talented young people were followed by brief accounts of their achievements.

The first in the Hidden Dragon Realm, Jia Ziyu, the Daoist disciple of the Wei Kingdom's Dao Sect, is twenty-seven years old and has reached the Divine Treasure Realm.

Grandson of Jia Shan, the Grand Pillar of the State of Wei, he was sent to the Daoist sect for training from a young age. His cultivation speed was extremely fast and his comprehension was astonishing. He once comprehended a lost fourth-order technique at the Sad Cliff of the Daoist sect. His master commented that he was capable of passing through three tribulations.

Li Wei searched carefully but couldn't find the princess, who was sixteen years old this year.

I did see a familiar face.

Qianlong Fifty-Six, the chief disciple of Xuanshui City of the Kunlun Sect, Zuo Fenghan, twenty-three years old, Qi Sea Realm.

He won first place in several major competitions within the sect, mastered the Kunlun Sect's ultimate skill, the Flying Sword Technique, and after a year down the mountain, slew countless demons and monsters.

On the right is the much-anticipated list of the most beautiful flowers.

This time, the princess firmly holds the top spot.

The list of beauties is followed by a line of praise. For Long Bilin, it reads: "Clouds remind me of her clothes, flowers of her face; the spring breeze caresses the balustrade, the dew is heavy. If not seen atop Mount Qunyu, she would be met beneath the moon on the Jade Terrace." — Li Wei.

No? Why is his name printed on it?

Li Wei looked down and saw that the names of the reviewers were printed after each review, so it didn't seem to be targeting him.

Indeed, if it's just a comment without any source, wouldn't it have no credibility at all?

But Li Wei isn't very famous, so does printing his name guarantee credibility?

However, it was obvious that this was Long Bilin's request, and Li Wei couldn't easily change it.

Keep reading.

Second on the list of flowers: Flower Moon Butterfly.

Shang Xueyan ranked third on the list of most beautiful women.

……

Lin Peiyao ranked eighth on the list of most beautiful women.

Liu Feiyan ranked ninth on the list of beauties.

Long Xiaoxiao ranked tenth on the list of most beautiful women.

Well, Li Wei feels that the princess has stopped acting altogether, and even that little girl Xiao Xiao has made it into the top ten.

The evaluation was strikingly: "Mischievous and adorable." — Princess Yuzhen.

However, upon closer reflection, Long Xiaoxiao's appearance is indeed very exquisite, and her innocent and pure temperament is also very pleasing. Apart from being a little flat-chested, there is really no problem with her being placed in this position.
