Empress, please lay down your armor, for I will save the world with a single sword!

Wu Liang did not answer immediately.

He was weighing his options.

Is this risky?

Big.

It's ridiculously large.

Yin Changye, Prince Qing, Yue Cangxiong of Zhengyang Palace, traitors of the Netherworld Cult, and those righteous sects that claim to be fighting demons and protecting the righteous path.

Each one of them is someone you shouldn't mess with.

Especially Zhengyang Palace, which is the number one sect in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the leader of the righteous path, with countless experts and immense strength. There are very few in the whole world who can rival it.

This is a behemoth!

Moreover, almost all of these people now have a grudge against Mo Jiuyou.

If I accept Cang Heng's decree, it would be like taking on this mess.

But what are the benefits?

Big too!

The Netherworld Cult.

The number one demonic cult organization within the Great Zhou Dynasty!

The Yellow Springs Palace is in charge of guarding.

The Hall of Impermanence is in charge of rewarding assassinations.

The Palace of Oblivion is in charge of intelligence.

The Naihe Palace is in charge of the source of wealth.

The Hall of the Gods and Demons is in charge of punishments.

There are also the Left and Right Holy Envoys, the Four Great Dharma Protectors, and the World's Branches.

If he could truly control this power, Wu Liang would no longer be just a quack doctor who exploits loopholes everywhere.

He will have his own knife.

My own money.

My own intelligence.

His own influence in the underworld.

In the future, helping Jiang Qingluan purge the remaining supporters of Prince Qing, and even helping her ascend the throne, will no longer be just empty talk!

What is he lacking right now?

We are short-staffed.

Lack of strength.

They lack their own trump card.

The Netherworld Cult has it all.

With this in mind, Wu Liang quickly made a decision!

afraid?

What's there to be afraid of?!

Fortune favors the bold.

Moreover, he has now stepped right into this mess.

Want to back out?

It's not that easy.

Wu Liang looked up at Mo Jiuyou and grinned.

"I want this immense wealth."

At the same time, he silently recited it in his mind.

receive!

[Task accepted.]

Mo Jiuyou looked at him, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

"Aren't you afraid?"

Wu Liang waved his hand.

"Being afraid is useless."

"Besides, risks and opportunities go hand in hand."

"I, Wu Liang, am someone who loves challenges the most."

He spoke very well.

Of course, the real reason is quite simple.

All system tasks have been triggered.

Two gold rewards.

Not answering?

Isn't that just plain stupid?

Mo Jiuyou nodded slowly.

"it is good."

"In that case, once I recover from my injuries, I will pass on the Cangheng Holy Decree to you."

Upon hearing this, Wu Liang's eyes darted around.

He suddenly changed the subject.

"However, Old Black, I have another question."

Mo Jiuyou frowned.

"explain."

Wu Liang looked serious.

"Does your Netherworld Cult have many beautiful women?"

Mo Jiuyou: "..."

He thought he had misheard.

"What?"

Wu Liang repeated it.

"Beauty."

"I've heard that your demonic sect acts recklessly and disregards etiquette. There must be quite a few beauties in your sect, right?"

"Any saintesses, enchantresses, female assassins, female protectors, or anything like that?"

Mo Jiuyou's face darkened instantly.

"A flower thief is a good-for-nothing."

Wu Liang was unhappy.

"What kind of talk is that?"

"Such a large sect as the Netherworld Cult, surely they don't even have a few beautiful women?"

"If I take such a huge risk and don't even get any beautiful women, what's the point of being the leader of this lousy cult?"

Mo Jiuyou angrily retorted, "Women's allure is a trivial matter!"

How can you be so short-sighted?

Wu Liang shook his head, his expression unusually serious.

"No, no."

"If one cannot enjoy beauty, then even being an emperor is meaningless."

"What is the point of living a life, whether it's power or martial arts skills?"

"Isn't it just about having some fun?"

He looked at Mo Jiuyou and said confidently, "Just tell me, are there any beautiful women? Are there many?"

"If there aren't many beautiful women, I really need to reconsider this lousy cult leader."

"Would I be a fool to take such a big risk if there weren't any beautiful women around?!"

Mo Jiuyou was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

He had just thought this kid was bold, insightful, and talented, barely worthy of the Cangheng Holy Decree.

The next moment, this guy started asking the pretty girl questions.

A leopard can't change its spots!

Mo Jiuyou's face darkened, and he said coldly, "I have a daughter."

Wu Liang's eyes lit up.

Mo Jiuyou continued, "His appearance is acceptable."

"I can grant it to you."

Wu Lianggang's eyes, which had just lit up, suddenly held a hint of suspicion again.

"Just passable?"

"Old Black, you're not trying to take advantage of me, are you?"

"I have very high standards; ordinary looks don't catch my eye. Let's make things clear first, so we don't cause any trouble later."

Mo Jiuyou snorted coldly.

"In the Chronicles of the Nine Provinces, my daughter's name is listed."

Wu Liang sat up straight instantly!

Chronicles of the Nine Provinces!

He knows that.

It was also a list created by Fengyulou.

However, this list does not rank martial arts skills, but rather evaluates the beauty and charm of women from all over the land.

It is a three-year term.

Ten people in the first phase.

The order of the rankings is not significant.

Those who can be included in the Record of Splendor are all unparalleled beauties in the world, each one possessing unparalleled elegance, national beauty, and captivating charm!

The storytellers in the teahouse told many stories like that.

Jiang Qingluan had been on the Kyushu Chronicles for two issues, totaling six years.

It is precisely for this reason that her reputation as "the Ninth Princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with unparalleled beauty" spread far and wide not only in the imperial court but also in the martial arts world.

Mo Jiuyou's daughter is also listed in the Record of Splendor?

That's just that her appearance is passable?

What are you pretending for, you old fogies!

Wu Liang was overjoyed.

Without saying a word, he stood up and bowed to Mo Jiuyou.

"Father-in-law, please accept my bow!"

Mo Jiuyou froze completely.

He simply said he could give it to him.

It's not officially promised yet.

I didn't even ask him to call me father-in-law right now!

How could this kid be so shameless?

But Wu Liang had already bowed down.

Mo Jiuyou's lips twitched, but in the end she didn't dodge.

He accepted the greeting.

Wu Liang looked up, his smile as bright as if he had found a mountain of gold.

"Father-in-law, may I ask what my wife's name is?"

Mo Jiuyou remained silent for a long time.

He slowly uttered two words.

"Wanwan."

Wu Liang's eyes shone even brighter.

"Mo Wanwan?"

"What a great name!"

"Just from her name, you can tell she must be an absolute beauty."

Mo Jiuyou looked at him coldly.

"If you dare to betray her, even if my meridians are severed and my martial arts are completely destroyed, I will still take your dog's life."

Wu Liang patted his chest.

"Don't worry, father-in-law!"

"I, Wu Liang, am the most affectionate of all!"

Mo Jiuyou looked at his face.

I don't believe a single word of it.

Wu Liang chuckled and rolled up his sleeves, showing great enthusiasm.

"Father-in-law, your son-in-law will continue to heal your wounds!"

"..."

……

Outside, the sky gradually darkened.

Deep within the Prince's mansion, lights began to illuminate one by one.

Wu Liang suddenly remembered the important matter at hand.

I need to go to Qiyun Courtyard to see Jiang Qingluan tonight.

I didn't go last night, and if I don't go tonight, that little vixen will probably curse me to death.

He slowly finished his practice, stood up, and straightened his robes.

"Alright, Lao Hei, you should get some rest."

"I'm going out to run some errands."

Mo Jiuyou glanced at him.

"Chasing women?"

Wu Liang looked serious.

What does it mean to provoke women?

"I'm saving lives."

Mo Jiuyou sneered.

"A person like you is probably not much different when it comes to saving lives or picking up women."

Wu Liang didn't bother arguing with him and turned to leave.

The night is getting darker.

Lights twinkled deep within the Prince's mansion.

Wu Liang glanced up in the direction of Qiyun Courtyard, then moved his feet and silently disappeared into the night.
