The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1414 - 1413: Brazen Words

"Aren’t you very clever? Didn’t you think about it before?" You Meng snorted coldly and said.

Looking at You Meng’s feigned innocent expression, Su Changfeng could only feel goosebumps rising all over his body. The person in front of him was truly the Heavenly Mountain Child, after all. Who knows what she really looks like, but it’s certain that she ought to be an old granny.

Mingming was already an old granny, yet she still put on the innocent look of a little girl. Su Changfeng really found it hard to accept.

"I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you. Where’s the Emperor? Is he already waiting for me?" Su Changfeng said.

You Meng was indeed ordered by the Emperor to meet Su Changfeng outside the city, but when to take Su Changfeng over was up to her, so even if they were late, the Emperor wouldn’t do anything to her.

"Su Changfeng, how did you come to the Chenguang Hall?" You Meng asked. In her eyes, Su Changfeng certainly wouldn’t know about the Sourceless Forest, so she couldn’t guess his purpose for coming.

"Once I meet the Emperor, won’t I know?" Su Changfeng said.

"Why? Can’t you tell me first?" You Meng said.

"I can, but shouldn’t you also explain to me why you appeared before me the way you did? What was your purpose?" Su Changfeng asked.

You Meng actually wanted to know his purpose, so she naturally had to help clarify, and Su Changfeng was indeed very curious about this question.

"I didn’t mean anything else, just wanted to see who you really are and how powerful. You understand, for Primordial Masters like us, life is too boring. After finally encountering something interesting, I would naturally be curious." You Meng explained.

"Is that all?" At this point, Su Changfeng thought You Meng didn’t have to lie to him anymore, but this explanation, Su Changfeng had a hard time accepting it.

You Meng nodded sincerely and candidly. The reason she has always been curious about Su Changfeng was to know just how powerful he was and where he came from.

From this perspective, she wasn’t lying, but she didn’t fully confess either.

"Do you think I have some ulterior motive, or perhaps I’m prepared to fight you?" You Meng said.

Su Changfeng frowned, couldn’t help wondering if he was overthinking it? But if she just wanted to find out his rank, did she need to disguise herself as a beggar?

It’s important to know that in Xingluo, a Primordial Essence Rank master is almost second to none, would such a figure not care about their face at all?

"If you just wanted to find out my rank, did you need to pretend to be a beggar?" Su Changfeng questioned.

"Could I just come straight to you, ask how powerful you are, and expect you to tell me honestly?"

With those words, You Meng assumed a superior attitude and asked, "Kid, tell me, what rank are you now?"

Su Changfeng’s mouth twitched. He himself didn’t even know what rank he really was now, mainly because the judgment method of strength on the Tianyuan Continent was not suitable for him, and he hadn’t yet found his life-bound magical artifact.

"The Emperor must be getting impatient; are you not ready to take me over yet?" Su Changfeng said.

"I’ve explained all that needed explaining." With that, You Meng stepped forward and walked on.

Baili Luoyuan quietly followed beside Su Changfeng. Although no expression could be seen on her face, a storm of emotions had already surged in her heart.

Baili Luoyuan never expected that as soon as they arrived at the city gate, they would encounter such a big figure as You Meng, a Primordial Essence Master second to none in Xingluo Territory, the kind of big figure ordinary people might never have the chance to meet in a lifetime.

Su Changfeng noticed Baili Luoyuan’s odd behavior and said with a smile, "What, are you afraid of her?"

Baili Luoyuan shook her head. She had never had any interaction with You Meng, no personal vendetta, so why would she be afraid? However, in front of such a master, she naturally felt a bit nervous, which was human nature.

"She is a Primordial Essence Master, the most formidable presence within Xingluo Territory. In front of her, I’m just a bit nervous, that’s all." Baili Luoyuan explained.

Su Changfeng sneered inwardly, nervous? What’s there to be nervous about? Isn’t she just a Heavenly Mountain Child? And not even ugly-looking, though who knows what she really looks like.

Su Changfeng couldn’t help but imagine in his mind, an old witch who has lived for hundreds of years, with wrinkled skin and sparse teeth, a face full of folds, then revealing a girlish innocent smile...

Thinking of this, Su Changfeng’s stomach churned.

Though they had many software that could photoshop pictures over there, it was still a photo, and when you see the actual person, it’s still their true form. But here on the Tianyuan Continent, a master like You Meng had changed her face, which was kind of scary.

If such a thing developed where they were from, it might drive a bunch of women crazy.

"What’s wrong with you?" Noticing Su Changfeng hadn’t spoken for a while, Baili Luoyuan asked in confusion.

"Nothing, nothing." Su Changfeng was contemplating whether he could bring back this technology to Earth, perhaps make a fortune, but thinking it through, he never really lacked money, so there was no need for such hassle, thinking up ways to make money.

Chenguang Hall.

The power center within Xingluo Territory, it didn’t look as magnificent and grand as Su Changfeng imagined. It appeared somewhat shabby, even less impressive than the Shen Family of Tianshui City.

"I didn’t expect the Emperor to be so poor." Su Changfeng couldn’t help but sigh.

Since they were about to meet the Emperor soon, Baili Luoyuan’s heart was already a bundle of nerves. Hearing Su Changfeng’s teasing words, she felt cold sweat breaking out.

"If the Emperor hears this by accident, you are going to be in big trouble." Baili Luoyuan cautioned.

"I don’t think so. After all, he’s the Emperor. How could he be so petty?" Su Changfeng said calmly.

Baili Luoyuan gave Su Changfeng a glance. The more time she spent with him, the harder it was to see through him. He seemed not to even take the Emperor seriously, leaving her at a loss for words.

"Speaking ill of the Emperor behind his back is absolutely not allowed. Anyway, I’ve warned you, if you won’t believe it, then it’s on you." Baili Luoyuan said.

Su Changfeng nodded, appearing as if he understood, but soon asked Baili Luoyuan, "What does the Emperor look like? How old is he now?"

Baili Luoyuan felt cold sweat breaking out; she had already warned Su Changfeng, and yet he still wouldn’t restrain himself? Besides, what did the Emperor’s appearance and age have to do with him?

"You may want to die, but I don’t. Can’t you hold back your curiosity?" Baili Luoyuan said worriedly.

Seeing that Baili Luoyuan was genuinely afraid, Su Changfeng didn’t say anything more.
