Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Legend of the Immortal

The first floor of the world.

"Childe, when it comes to blood, my subordinates remember an old thing."

After hearing Li Wuji claim that he would not show his flaws, Cao Zi'an breathed a sigh of relief, but quickly hesitated again and remembered a past.

"What?"

Li Wuji glanced at Cao Zi'an, who was slightly dignified, and asked lightly.

"In the early years, it was rumored that after the empress successfully ascended the throne, she was extremely greedy for imperial power, and over time she began to be obsessed with immortality, because she was unwilling to be the emperor for only a few decades, and she wanted to become the master of eternal life in this world."

"So I turned to the Qilin Mountain Sancai Temple, where it is said that there is a heavenly master who can see through the heavens and know the fate of all living beings in the world, who is the messenger of the heavens, named Qilin Heavenly Master."

"Under the guidance of the Qilin Heavenly Master, the empress has been sending people to secretly search for the elixir of life, striving for immortality, and for this reason, she does not hesitate to sacrifice countless financial resources and manpower, although she has searched all over the world, she has found nothing."

"There are also rumors that the empress has been bewitched by the Qilin Heavenly Master, and has been drinking the pure and yang blood of the baby boy for many years, in a vain attempt to fulfill her wish for immortality, but this is all a few years ago, and I have not heard such rumors in the past two years."

"My subordinates once passed this news into the Heavenly Hell, and the lord's intention was to order us to investigate secretly, but in the end nothing was found, but there were only some vague clues pointing to the Nine Nether Realm."

"If the empress has really been drinking the blood of the baby boy for many years, then the person who is looking for the newborn baby boy for her is likely to be the blood blazing, as for the forces of the Nine Nether Realm, they have all been eradicated by the child, I am afraid it is difficult to find out which force has secretly colluded with the blood blazing to do this contrary to the way of heaven."

Cao Zi'an recalled and said with a solemn face.

"Immortal?!"

"Why are all emperors in the world virtuous?!"

After listening to Cao Zi'an's words, Li Wuji frowned and said with disgust on his face.

"It seems that the son, like the lord, doesn't believe that there is immortality in this world."

Cao Zi'an said slowly, as if remembering when Pang Xun was still there.

"Immortality is against the reincarnation of heaven, and heaven and earth are destined to have a cycle of life and death at the beginning of the creation of man, this is the mandate of heaven, and no one can disobey the mandate of heaven."

"The so-called immortality is just a trick by some treacherous people to open their mouths and deceive people's hearts!"

"That crazy woman, deceived by others but didn't know it!"

Li Wuji sneered, his face full of disdain.

"Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, since the blood blaze has already set his sights on Childe, it is better for Childe to act carefully in the future."

Cao Zi'an said worriedly.

"What are you afraid of, if you come to one, you will kill one, and if you come to two, you will kill a pair!"

"Isn't she trying to test me? Then let the horses come! ”

Li Wuji snorted coldly and said disdainfully.

Seeing Li Wuji's fearless appearance, Cao Zi'an nodded secretly, with a faint smile on his face.

"However, since there are such rumors, then send someone to investigate, if she is really using the blood of a baby boy to seek immortality, then I will cut off her thoughts!"

"In the Nine Nether Realm, not all forces have been eradicated by me."

Li Wuji hesitated for a moment and said seriously.

"Ghosts?!"

Cao Zi settled down for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

"Now it seems that it was the right choice to spare his life in the first place, you must be cautious and don't startle the snake."

"In addition, the person hiding behind Tu Jiu must continue to investigate, I want to know who has secretly connived at him for so long, and even Li Jingyao is afraid of three points."

Li Wuji nodded and said in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Cao Zi'an respectfully agreed and slowly exited the room.

After Li Wuji raised his head and drank the wine in the pot, he slowly got up and came to the window, looking at the night view of the capital, frowning slightly.

Along the way, he seemed to see that the world was becoming more and more unbearable, which made him more determined to do so.

...

Two days later.

In the center of the capital, a barbecue restaurant called Ziboju officially opened, and like Las Vegas, Cao Zi'an has opened a big deal again.

In Li's view, word of mouth is the best advertisement in this closed world without any media.

On a sign in front of the door, there are four big characters: Eat freely.

"All-you-can-eat? Really?! ”

"Isn't this boss dazed? You can eat it open with just one penny? ”

"Shhh, be quiet, do you know that the owner of this restaurant is Wuji Gongzi?! Don't want to die?! ”

"Huh? I didn't say anything, I don't care, let's go try it first! ”

In front of the building, there was a crowd of people, gathered a lot of onlookers, and they were discussing, and in the end, no one could withstand the temptation, so they took out a penny and couldn't wait to walk in.

The whole restaurant is full, lively, chic decoration, only to see the delicacy in life, it didn't take a morning, the news has spread throughout the capital, and many palace nobles have also come to visit.

Zibo Ju is divided into three floors, the first floor is a loose platform, the second floor is a box, and people with status have special guys to lead the second floor.

Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you know what it means to open a business.

In a room on the third floor, Li Wuji sat quietly at the table, drinking tea, with a smile on his face.

Since the third floor has a separate room for Wuji, it is not open to the public and serves as a rest area for the shopkeeper and the guys.

"Childe, it's only been half a day, and the business of the restaurant is already extremely hot, but the more people we have, the more money we lose."

Cao Zi'an stood aside and said slowly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"If you want to advertise it widely, you have to be willing to spend your money, a loss of one day or two days is not a loss, what I want is popularity, as long as you gather popularity, the future profit will only be more and not less."

Li Wuji said with a smile.

"That's right, that's what Childe said."

Cao Zi'an hesitated for a moment and said with a smile.

Thinking of the current popularity of Las Vegas, his heart is no longer worried.

Since the opening of the first floor of Las Vegas and the world, it can be said that it is making money every day, and there is also the foundation of the Wuji Building of the Nine Nether Realm, plus the various shops left by Tu Jiu, as well as the original business of the major forces, and now the Wuji can be called a family fortune, and there is so much silver that it can't be piled up.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Lu Yuan appeared at the door.

"Childe, someone from the East Palace is here."

As soon as the words fell, footsteps were heard, and a figure appeared at the door.

"Tong Zhuo, the commander of the guards of the East Palace, has seen Li'anhou."

Immediately after, a slightly stiff voice came from outside the door.

Li Wuji raised his eyebrows and motioned for Cao Zi'an to step forward and open the door.

Outside the door, Tong Zhuo stood with his hands bowed and his demeanor respectful.

"Commander Tong suddenly visited, what happened?"

Li Wuji smiled and asked slowly.

Since the addition of the title of Liwuji, even Tong Zhuo, who has always been cold to Liwuji, has become much more respectful.

"His Royal Highness Taiqing heard that the Hou Ye was attacked last night, and specially ordered him to come to visit."

Tong Zhuo glanced up at Li Wuji and said in a deep voice.

"Thank you Your Highness for your concern, I'm fine."

Li Wuji arched his hand and said lightly.

"Your Royal Highness, since the Hou Ye is fine, then please go to the East Palace with the Hou Ye to reminisce about the old days."

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and His Royal Highness Taiqing is very worried."

Tong Zhuo arched his hand and continued.

After listening to Tong Zhuo's words, Li Wuji raised his eyebrows, glanced at Cao Zi'an, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Okay."

Li Wuji slowly got up as he spoke, took Lu Yuan and followed Tong Zhuo downstairs, got into the carriage, and went straight to the direction of the palace gate.

"Childe, it's going to the palace here, it's going to be fine, right?"

On the way, Lu Yuan asked in a low voice while catching the car.

The assassination that night, everyone already knew that it was the empress's minions, so Lu Yuan was a little worried, after all, the palace was the empress's territory, and if he was assassinated again, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine."

"How's your recovery going?"

Li Wuji sat in the carriage, closed his eyes and recuperated, and asked slowly.

"It's almost good, and it won't affect the shot."

Lu Yuan said categorically.

Hearing Lu Yuan's answer, Li Wuji couldn't help laughing out loud and didn't say anything more.

After a long time, the carriage arrived at the palace gate, and after Tong Zhuo moved out of Taiqing's dictation, Li Wuji once again rode the carriage into the palace and drove straight to the East Palace.

Along the way, many people stopped and watched, looking at the entire court, and those who were qualified to enter the palace in a carriage were the one in front of them, except for the former national teacher.

Everyone is speculating about who the man in the carriage is...
