The Winds and Clouds Surge Again (Seeking Monthly Votes)_2 “Not giving it to you, your seventh brother finds picking up Spirit Stones hard enough. He always has to bend over, or use Mysterious Energy to attract them, and occasionally, he even has to kick the stones.”

“Seventh Brother…” Wang Ansong was almost crying.

I can help you pick them up~~ I’m not afraid of hard work.

If there are Spirit Stones to be picked, forget kicking stones; he’d even be willing to kick a mountain.

…

Around the same time.

Stay Immortal Valley.

Stay Immortal Residence.

Before anyone knew it, Emperor Longchang had set up a chess stall, enthusiastically playing a fierce game of Go with Wang Shouzhe.

It was indeed like that.

After much effort failing to catch Wang Shouzhe in any wrongdoing, Emperor Longchang had a pent-up urge to find redemption in other ways, which was truly difficult, so naturally, the best method to “educate” Shouzhe was through a game of chess.

“Shouzhe, it’s been thirty years, and your chess skills are still so awful, which I find quite comforting,” Emperor Longchang said, holding a teapot in one hand, sipping Spiritual Tea, and placing chess pieces with the other, his face becoming more flush with excitement, his spirit invigorated.

Wang Shouzhe, however, felt no shame in losing the game but began to ask for meal subsidies instead, “Your Majesty, having you stay with the Wang family is an utmost welcome. However, the Wang family’s finances are limited, truly incapable of supporting a Great Emperor.”

Some things, naturally, must be asked for.

The physical strength of a Transcendent Void Realm Profound Martial cultivator was terrifying, and even just maintaining his daily expenses required an astronomical amount of money. If the Emperor were to eat freely, even the current Wang family wouldn’t be able to afford it.

And this was just the consumption of a Transcendent Void Realm early-stage emperor.

If it were a cultivator of the Void Realm seeking to reach a higher level, the resources required would be even greater. The entire country would have to tighten their belts.

Or rather, with the size of the current Great Qian Land’s pool, it couldn’t nurture a True Immortal Realm, not to mention supporting one.

“Look at you, Shouzhe. When you lose a game, you start talking about other things,” Emperor Longchang said, rolling his eyes, “Rest assured, my pension will be provided by the Clan House and the Daqian National Treasury, and it won’t be a burden on your Wang family.”

Although the Emperor had thick skin, he was aware of his enormous consumption. Even Third-Class Aristocratic Families like the Chen Clan and Great Qian Wang Clan might not be able to support him, let alone the Wang family.

He was not shameless enough to bankrupt the Wang family.

“In that case, Shouzhe is relieved,” Wang Shouzhe began to play chess with the Emperor at ease.

Losing a game was nothing; neither people nor money was lost, and he didn’t mind how many times it happened.

“Such pettiness,” Emperor Longchang muttered, then continued abusing his advantage in the game, “By the way, are you still planning to attack the Barbarian Gu Clan in the Southern Frontier? When will you strike, can you give me a definite answer?”

Subduing the Southern Frontier was the last thorn in Emperor Longchang’s heart; he didn’t want to end his life with this regret.

“Your Majesty, that’s Emperor Zi’an’s preparative work,” Wang Shouzhe said, “How could a mere leader of a Rank Six Prominent Family give a definite answer to Your Majesty?”

“Stop that nonsense,” Emperor Longchang said irritably. “The frequency of your communication with Emperor Zi’an almost rivals that of young lovers. Surely, it was your suggestion that made him delay the Southern Frontier conquest?”

“Your Majesty, Emperor Zi’an did consult with me on this matter. Although the strategy proposed by the deposed Kang Commandery Prince is generally feasible, it still has many deficiencies. Rash action would be detrimental to Great Qian.”

“I think that plan is quite good. Conquering the Barbarian Gu Clan of the Southern Frontier should be feasible. Surely, the two of you can’t be inferior to the deposed Kang Commandery Prince?” Emperor Longchang glared and taunted, “Don’t just focus on agriculture and internal affairs all day. With that time, you might as well hurry up and conquer the Southern Frontier to significantly boost Great Qian’s power.”

“Your Majesty, as you said, it needs ‘digestion’ after conquering,” Wang Shouzhe replied somewhat helplessly, placing a chess piece, “The difficulty lies in the ‘digesting.’ The customs and culture of the Southern Frontier Barbarian Gu Clan are starkly different from Great Qian’s, and they devoutly believe in Witch Gu. They have a strong repulsive and hostile attitude towards foreigners, especially towards us in Great Qian. Rushing to war would result in ‘easy to conquer, hard to assimilate.’” “However, rest assured, Your Majesty. Emperor Zi’an already has a concrete method for assimilation, and he’s already preparing for it. It won’t be long before we launch a full-scale attack on the Southern Frontier.”

“Good, then I shall wait and see,” Emperor Longchang’s mood brightened immediately, “Both you and Emperor Zi’an are known for your prudent planning, with such meticulous planning, conquering the Southern Frontier should pose no problem. I extend my congratulations in advance for your assured victory.”

While the Emperor was in high spirits, Old Yao, Wu Xuening, and Wang Anye among others had arrived at Stay Immortal Valley.

At first, Emperor Longchang was slightly embarrassed, as at the most critical moment, he had “abandoned” Old Yao and the girl Xuening, tearing through space to retreat first.

But within half an hour, Loud angry roars were heard coming from within Stay Immortal Valley, “No! I absolutely will not allow it. You are meant to marry into the Immortal Dynasty.”

“But Grandpa Ancestor, I’ve already been with Anye… in that way, how can I still marry into the Immortal Dynasty? With my reputation, they won’t accept me anyway.”
