Chapter 1396 - 49: Great Emperor’s Free Meal! Shouzhe’s Scheme 4

"Ning Xi, why aren’t you eating?" Liua Ruolan asked concernedly.

"Great-grandmother, these ingredients are of such high grade, I’m afraid even one bite might make my qi and blood overly vigorous." Wang Ningxi made a thoughtful expression, "Besides, I can’t figure out the last problem, so I have no appetite."

"Come, let great-grandmother take a look." Liua Ruolan stepped forward and glanced at it, inspiration suddenly struck her, "This is simple, you just need to do it like this, and then like that..."

Wang Ningxi’s eyes lit up: "Indeed, just do it like this, and then like that... Thank you, great-grandmother, this makes my path to reaching the Celestial Human Realm completely smooth."

The group unfamiliar with Liua Ruolan, especially the big shots, were shocked as they watched this scene unfold. Could it really be done this way? Who exactly is this Liua Ruolan to be able to pinpoint the crucial areas at a glance?

"Now that it’s smooth, have a bite." Liua Ruolan personally broke off a piece for him, "Your meridians and Qi Sea are still resilient, one bite won’t overwhelm you, especially while you are still in school and should replenish yourself."

"Great-grandmother, I’ve already graduated with top honors from the Clan Academy, and I’m preparing to spend some time at the Research Institute." Wang Ningxi said while controlling his expression as he ate the Purple Jade Thousand-Layer Cake.

"Look at your great-grandmother’s memory." Liua Ruolan slapped her full forehead and said, "With so many descendants, it does get confusing... we have dozens of the Ning Generation, right?"

"Yes, yes, I remember you’ve already graduated. Top honors, well done, have another piece of cake."

Wang Ningxi sighed internally, I am your own direct great-grandson, your own direct great-grandson.

Just then.

Emperor Longchang ran over, dragging Jiang Zhencang along. The moment he entered the courtyard, he began shouting, "Ruolan, where’s Shouzhe? Is he hiding away in his little space again?"

"Mind you, I’ve been making contributions lately. Handling the recruitment process and testing arrangements for An Ye’s army, it’s all been my organizational effort."

Emperor Longchang bragged while grabbing the Purple Jade Thousand-Layer Cake to eat, praising while chewing: "Ruolan’s culinary skills remain as good as ever. I’m in a good mood today, how about we have Immortal Spirit Rice tonight?"

Truly, he is the Great Emperor.

As long as the ingredients are fine, he doesn’t mind the taste at all.

Given it is Saint-Grade Spirit Grain, during his reign as Emperor, he never splurged on this.

Regarding eating Immortal Spirit Rice, naturally, he takes advantage whenever he can. Every mealtime, he’ll make a round, freeloading and leaving once he’s finished. This kind of free meal doesn’t even require him to spend extra on Old Qian for retirement.

"Your Majesty, greetings, Saint Master." The group of Divine Techniques Realm folks and younger ones paid their respects.

"No need for formalities, no need." Emperor Longchang waved kindly, suddenly noticing Yuan Shui Ascendant among them, and immediately laughed, "Yuan Shui, you’re here too, congrats, congrats. Earlier, Saint Master Jiang was discussing some matters with me. Since Liyao would often reside at the Saint Land, the Acting Dean position should be entrusted to you."

"This..." Yuan Shui Ascendant was immediately caught off guard.

Right then, Jiang Zhencang nodded and said, "That’s right, Yuan Shui. This is Liyao’s wish, you should manage the Longzhou Purple Mansion Academy well. As for any lack of bloodline, the Saint Land and Saintess Liyao will help figure things out."

"This is a great opportunity, seize it well, strive for confirmation after reaching the Divine Power Realm."

"Thank you, thank you, Saint Master Jiang..." Yuan Shui Ascendant didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, recalling how Liyao used to be his designated disciple.

Yet in the blink of an eye, the disciple turned into a junior sister.

And more than that, the junior sister instantly became a supervisor, then a Saintess... and in the future, she would become the Master of the Saint Land!

Now, the care from the junior sister suddenly arrived, the junior sister was even considering promoting him.

The ups and downs of life are truly thrilling.
