Protect Our Clan Leader

It’s quite obvious that this “wretched” bearded uncle is the current Divine Emperor of the East Xia Divine Dynasty — Cangping Divine Emperor.

It was a rare chance to have some fun, playing a prank lifted his spirits quite a bit.

“Hey, hey, little girl, how long are you going to keep crying for?” Seeing that Wang Licui was still crying, Cangping Divine Emperor chuckled in a good mood, “If you keep crying, I’m afraid you’re going to flood the whole of Luojing.”

“Boo hoo~”

Wang Licui shot him a fierce glare, then continued crying.

It was the first time in her life that she lost in a Big Stomach King contest, just thinking about it made her sad~~

This wretched, frail-looking bearded uncle, with only a cultivation base of the Void Realm, how could he eat so much? It’s like toppling in a mere gutter~!

“Alright, alright~~” Cangping Divine Emperor, a bit overwhelmed by her crying, waved his hand and said, “It’s indeed unbecoming for someone my age to bully a little lass like you. Once you’ve digested those dumplings, I’ll treat you to a nice meal in a few days.”

“Really?”

Wang Licui’s crying abruptly stopped.

With her big round eyes, she gazed eagerly at Cangping Divine Emperor, her tone questioning: “You’re not just coaxing me, are you?”

“…” Cangping Divine Emperor chuckled, “I, a dignified… never mind, believe it or not.”

“I believe, I believe!” Wang Licui hurriedly jumped up, afraid he’d break his promise, she quickly said, “But why wait a few days to treat me? Today is fine.”

“Today?” Cangping Divine Emperor looked at her, full of doubt, “You just ate so much, and you can still eat more?”

“I can, I can.” Wang Licui patted her bulging belly confidently, “Just give me an hour, no, a stick of incense’s time to digest.”

Cangping Divine Emperor’s mouth twitched: “Okay, I’ll wait for you to digest. A whole day to digest is fine, too.”

Wang Licui nodded, then started exercising with a few punches and kicks on the grandstand.

Less than a stick of incense later, she ran back energetically and invited Cangping Divine Emperor: “Uncle, I’m ready.”

Cangping Divine Emperor wiped nonexistent sweat from his forehead: “You’re really something, girl… Let’s eat here at the Immortal Welcoming Building, you can bring all your friends.”

“Thank you, Uncle! You’re really a good person!” Wang Licui was finally happy.

She immediately pulled Lan Wanyi, Dumpling Buns, and the others along with Trashy Rat, Ying Yu’an, and Si Wuchou into the Immortal Welcoming Building, and with some influence, got a street-view private room.

However, this time, Wang Licui ordered modestly, selecting a heap of delicacies, but the total cost was merely about a dozen Immortal Spirit Stones.

“Girl, are you just holding up appearances? Only ordering so few dishes?” Cangping Divine Emperor teased, seemingly amused.

“Uncle, you’re being like a dog biting Lu Dongbin, not recognizing a good heart~” Wang Licui said, savoring a new dish with delight, “You seem to be dressed so poorly, not like a wealthy person in Luojing, I thought earning a Chaos Spirit Stone wasn’t easy for you, so I wanted to save you some money.”

Dog biting what?

Eunuch Old Tan, following behind, didn’t understand Wang Licui’s proverb, but he knew she compared His Majesty to a dog, and immediately stepped forward to scold her: “You little girl, how can you insult people like this?”

“It’s fine, she was just being metaphorical, why take it seriously?” Cangping Divine Emperor waved his hand, “Old Tan, you sit down and eat, too.”

Speaking privately, he instructed: “Old fellow, you better keep quiet. It’s rare to meet such an interesting little girl, if you reveal my identity, I’ll skin you alive. Quickly smooth things over.”

Eunuch Old Tan shivered, hurriedly entering performance mode, dared to boldly pat Cangping Divine Emperor’s shoulder and said: “I say, Old Cang, it’s not easy for us to come from the countryside to scrounge for a meal in Luojing, don’t let yourself down after inviting someone for a meal.”

Acting like they were very familiar and friendly.

Cangping Divine Emperor almost slapped Old Tan to death.

Fortunately, he remembered in time that he had asked Old Tan to smooth things over, restraining his hand, instead giving Old Tan a mere glance: “Sit down and eat, I have my own plans.”

“Yes, yes.”

Eunuch Old Tan then sat down casually.

“Oh~~ you look so poor, but you have quite a temper.” Hearing Cangping Divine Emperor’s words, Wang Licui couldn’t help but frown, seriously criticizing him, “Let me tell you, your kind of temper only works in your old rural home. In a place like Divine Capital Luojing, you can find several in the Void Realm every time a ceiling falls. And aristocrats of Marquis, Duke, and Baron titles are as abundant as flies.”

“You should hold your temper back lest you regret it after suffering a loss.” She lectured like a seasoned old Luojing native, “If you accidentally annoy those petty sorts, getting thrown out of Luojing in a sack after a beating would be letting you off easy.”

“You seem to be getting by quite well in Luojing?” Cangping Divine Emperor asked amusedly.

“Of course.” Wang Licui grabbed Ying Yu’an, giving his head a pat, “See this slick-haired, well-groomed kid? The Direct Line Young Master of the Celestial Column Saint King Ying. He used to be so arrogant, didn’t I just handle him until he was obedient?”

Ying Yu’an’s face turned black: “Sister Licui, can you stop using me as an example every time you meet strangers? Even a Young Master of the Ying Clan needs some dignity, okay?”
