Quick Wear: I and the Villain Beat the Scum Together

Chapter 101: Piao Piao v Crippled General 9

After stopping everyone from following him, Si Ke asked Lao Liu to remove the protective shield after floating outside the courtyard. Then, he slowly approached the direction of the Emperor and Empress.

She felt nothing... She floated a distance further, but still felt nothing... Until she floated back to the Emperor and Empress, still feeling nothing...

How could this be?

So... there is no national destiny!

"Lao Liu?"

"Host, I don't know either! Under normal circumstances, at this distance, you should have been reduced to ashes long ago." Lao Liu poked his finger, his face also full of confusion.

Everyone looked at Si Ke's actions in confusion, and when they saw that she didn't say anything for a long time, they also became worried.

"Keke, what's wrong?" the emperor asked anxiously.

"Father, I've removed my protective shield. Logically, at this distance, I should have been ejected long ago, but now, I'm standing before you, perfectly fine. Therefore, I suspect our national destiny has been damaged. Father, do you know any eminent monks or powerful individuals who could calculate our national destiny? I believe Xuantong must have done something to cause this."

This explains why the original owner could easily kill the emperor and empress.

Yun Yan also approached Si Ke and found that there was really no obstacle.

Everyone's face was solemn. They all knew what national destiny represented. If national destiny was gone, the only thing waiting for this country was destruction.

"Your Majesty, how about I go find Master Yuan An tomorrow? He will definitely be able to figure it out." Si Chengyi stepped forward and bowed.

Master Yuanan is the abbot of Huguo Temple, and no one understands these things better than him.

"No, I'll go myself!"

"No, Zhou Yijin hasn't been caught yet. Keke said that he has a fierce ghost in his hand. If something goes wrong along the way, no one can afford the consequences. And the emperor has to preside over the matter from now on, so he must not take any risks." This time it was the queen who stopped them.

"Your Majesty is right. To show my sincerity, it is most appropriate for me to go there."

Several people started arguing, but unexpectedly Si Ke stepped forward and said, "Father, let the Crown Prince go! However, Yun Yan must go with him. Yun Yan has magic skills, and if anything really happens, he can get away with it. As for Father and Mother, it's best not to leave the palace during this period to avoid danger. When the Crown Prince comes back, it's best to move back to the palace so that everyone can be safe together. Of course, it would be even better if the Crown Prince could ask Master Yuan An to leave the palace and protect Father and Mother."

Si Ke finished speaking in one breath, arranging everything properly. And this arrangement was undoubtedly the best.

"If that's the case, then it's settled." The emperor made his final decision. Seeing that he had been out long enough for the day, he finally turned to Si Ke. "Ke Ke, since you can now be close to me, it won't affect you in any way. I will send someone to completely seal your palace with black cloth to ensure that no light can get in. You will return to the palace with me!"

"Huh?" Why did he jump on her all of a sudden?

Yun Yan also began to get anxious, but he had no right to refute and could only look at Si Ke anxiously.

"Father, your daughter will not return to the palace."

"Why?"

"Father, not everyone in this world needs to open their third eye to see ghosts. Some people are born with the third eye. There are many people in the palace and they are all gossipy. If someone with the third eye sees me, your harem will be in turmoil." Si Ke thought about it and found a reason.

"Oh, I thought it was something else. This is easy to handle. I will issue an order that all palace servants are not allowed to approach your palace at night. Now you can rest assured."

He was determined to take her back to the palace, so Si Ke used his trump card. "Father, I...I...I like Yun Yan and I won't go back."

Now not only the emperor was shocked, but everyone in the room was also shocked. Only Yun Yan had a face full of surprise.

She said she liked him, was that true?

"How can this be?" The emperor finally sighed, feeling helpless towards his daughter. "If it were before, I would have granted your wish. But now, you're a ghost, and he's a human. You've already made the General's Mansion a laughingstock. Now, are you going to make it a laughingstock again? How can I face the general a hundred years from now?"

Humans and ghosts have different paths. If he granted the marriage, and Yun Yan married Si Ke, even if Yun Yan agreed, his reign as emperor would be over. This would be a ghost marriage, and the historians and censors would surely impeach it to death. To outsiders, it would be a disgrace to the General's Mansion. But if he didn't grant the marriage, and let a dignified royal princess follow Yun Yan without any status, how would the royal family maintain its dignity?

"Father, you don't have to worry about this. I am now practicing a technique that can not only improve my soul. Once I complete this technique, I can also reshape my body. Then, I can become a human again." Si Keke did not lie. She had not noticed it before, but this time she was seriously injured. She flipped through the book on ghost cultivation while she was unconscious and actually mentioned this matter.

Everyone was shocked again. Such a thing could happen. Of course, Yun Yan was the happiest. She could turn back into an adult. Did that mean they could really be together?

"So, Father, I...will not be returning to the palace for the time being!"

This time the emperor did not object. Good things take time, so he would just wait and see with his daughter!

It was almost dawn when we saw off the emperor and his entourage.

Today, Yun Yan was in a state of excitement. Si Ke had shocked him so much that he couldn't get over it.

"You, why don't you go to bed? Don't you have to accompany the prince to the Huguo Temple at dawn?"

"Keke, you said you like me, is that true?"

Si Ke frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect that this guy was still thinking about this. "No, I just don't want to go back to the palace. Isn't this an excuse?"

Yun Yan's expression changed instantly upon hearing this, so he had become an excuse again. "Keke, you really have never liked me? Not even a little bit?"

"I lied to you!"

"what?"

"Yun Yan, you're putting too much emphasis on me. I hope you can also make your own judgments. Don't you have a feeling whether I like you or not?"

Yun Yan was stunned by Si Ke’s question. Yes, doesn’t he feel it himself?

If she didn't like him, how could she have spent so much time with him? She could have just gone back with her father. If she didn't like him, what was the point of her risking her life to block the sword for him...

But, since when did he become like this?

Was it the broken leg that made him lose all hope? Did he see Si Ke as his salvation?

"Keke, I get it. I won't do that again."

A word of advice woke him up from his dream. At this moment, he felt as if he was alive again.
