Who Says the Blue Silver Emperor Has No Brains? Her Brains Are Too Useful

Xu Xiao's words left the Blue Silver Emperor hesitating.

Yes, she was hesitating.

The Blue Silver Emperor looked at Xu Xiao with great interest.

She had assumed Xu Xiao would ask for advice on cultivation, but she never expected him to propose a request that offered no immediate benefit to her.

He wanted her to take him to a specific location once he reached level 50.

This was far too ethereal; what if he met with an accident before even reaching level 50?

The Blue Silver Emperor pondered for a moment before speaking: "Little one, the favor you ask of me is far too vague."

"Not to mention how long it will take for you to reach level 50 soul power."

"What if you encounter some mishap along the way?"

"Even if everything goes smoothly, what reason do I have to wait for you for so long?"

The Blue Silver Emperor's words left Xu Xiao stunned.

He was stunned because, wasn't the Blue Silver Emperor supposed to be gentle and kind?

How was the one standing before him so sharp-witted...

He understood her point: she might help out of a sense of fate if it were a small favor, and she wouldn't mind that.

But the condition he proposed? It spanned a long time and a great distance; who knew what might happen in the future?

To put it bluntly, he was asking for a post-dated check, but since it would take so long to cash, would she even honor it when the time came?

Simply put, she needed a guarantee and a benefit.

If it were a minor favor, she might do it for the sake of fate, but this was different.

Subconsciously, Xu Xiao had assumed the Blue Silver Emperor would be easy to fool and wouldn't ask for any conditions.

After thinking it over, Xu Xiao calmed down. The Blue Silver Emperor had lived for so many years; she was merely innocent, not a fool.

If she became foolish, it was only because of "love-brain" syndrome; not every soul beast that transformed was like Xiao Wu, devoid of common sense.

The Blue Silver Emperor only became foolish when she fell in love—though it was uncertain if it was truly love, or perhaps an abyss!

The current Blue Silver Emperor was not yet love-struck; she was normal, sharp, and not easily deceived.

Come to think of it, this was only natural; not everyone was a fool.

This time, Xu Xiao had truly miscalculated and been a bit too presumptuous.

It seems I must be extremely careful from now on. I cannot act so impulsively before I have the strength to back it up.

Xu Xiao thought silently to himself. If this had been any other Emperor, he might have been skinned alive for such a request.

Helping you is a kindness; refusing is their right.

Since their relationship wasn't deep yet, it was only natural that she would demand a benefit.

But this didn't stump Xu Xiao.

He just had to play to her interests. What the Blue Silver Emperor cared about most right now was transforming and entering the human world.

Xu Xiao naturally steered the conversation in that direction.

"Blue Silver Emperor, if you are willing to do me this favor."

"When you transform and come to find me, I can protect you until you grow into a Titled Douluo!"

Xu Xiao spoke with great sincerity. He truly could protect the Blue Silver Emperor until she reached the Titled Douluo realm; he could simply toss her into the Spirit Ascension Platform space.

It was a trivial matter.

As soon as these words were spoken, the Blue Silver Emperor became visibly happy. This was exactly what she wanted. Soul beast transformation required contact with humans, and having someone who could protect her until she reached the Titled Douluo realm was a massive advantage.

No matter how she looked at it, it was a bargain.

The Blue Silver King nearby tried to speak, but was stopped by the Blue Silver Emperor. She said, "Little one, since you can protect me until I reach the Titled Douluo realm."

"I assume the faction behind you is quite formidable."

"If that is the case, wouldn't a 100,000-year soul beast like me just be delivering myself to your doorstep?"

"Even if I believe your claim that you can protect me."

"Regarding that place you mentioned, with the power of your faction, why not have them take you there instead of asking me?"

Xu Xiao took a deep breath. He really wanted to ask: who said Ah Yin lacked intelligence? Her mind was incredibly sharp.

She didn't seem foolish at all; her words were logical and well-reasoned.

Indeed, as long as a woman wasn't blinded by love, she could see through things more clearly than anyone.

Xu Xiao looked at the Blue Silver Emperor; anyone who could reach such a high level of cultivation was no fool.

Xu Xiao spoke leisurely: "Emperor, firstly, the three of us brothers have no background and no faction. If we did, we wouldn't have come to find you alone. You are mistaken on that point."

"Secondly, I can provide you with protection because I possess special means. As for what they are, I can tell you after you transform."

"Thirdly, the place I need to go is related to you soul beasts, which is why I sought you out. Only you can take me there."

Xu Xiao spoke with great earnestness, his eyes devoid of any ripples, appearing incomparably calm.

As Xu Xiao spoke, the Blue Silver Emperor scrutinized him closely, discovering that the other party did not seem to be lying.

Upon hearing this, the Blue Silver King interjected abruptly, "Human hearts are treacherous, full of intrigue and endless schemes..."

Well, he had fallen into the hands of these two today, but Xu Xiao didn't mind.

The Blue Silver Emperor laughed softly, her voice crisp and clear.

"Alright, Little Lan, the little fellow has been quite honest with us, there is no need to say such sarcastic things to him."

The Blue Silver Emperor hurriedly smoothed things over.

Xu Xiao grinned and chuckled, feeling somewhat awkward; the boomerang had landed right on his own head.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei snickered on the sidelines, Big Brother, oh Big Brother, you've really fallen for it this time.

Xu Xiao: If anyone says Ah Yin has no brains from now on, I'll fight them.

Xu Xiao knew himself that he had still underestimated the Blue Silver Emperor; anyone capable of cultivating from a transformation to the point of meeting Tang Hao was clearly not lacking in intelligence.

It was only after meeting Tang Hao that she seemed to have discarded her brain entirely.

"Three little ones, how about staying in my Blue Silver Forest for a while?" the Blue Silver Emperor suggested.

Xu Xiao's expression shifted slightly; at this point, he had no choice but to stay.

He did not know what the Blue Silver Emperor's motives were, but he knew she definitely had her own plans. If it were before, Xu Xiao might not have thought much of it, but now, given what the Blue Silver Emperor had displayed, he couldn't help but be suspicious.

"Fine!"

Xu Xiao agreed immediately. The Blue Silver Emperor was overjoyed; she wanted to take this opportunity to properly understand the human world.

Had she not met Xu Xiao and his companions, the Blue Silver Emperor might have had to suppress this desire for a while longer.

But now, she yearned for the human world more than ever.

And so, the three of them settled down in the Blue Silver Forest.

After the three left, the Blue Silver King looked at the Blue Silver Emperor: "Your Majesty, you..."

He did not know how to persuade his Emperor.

It was all that human's fault; the damned fellow clearly had ill intentions.

The Blue Silver Emperor sighed: "Little Lan, you know that I have been considering this idea for a long time."

"Ah Rou has been transformed for a long time, and she has managed to live quite well in the human world on her own. Now, with the help of these little ones, my situation will be much better than hers."

The Blue Silver King sighed. He could see that his Emperor's heart was set; once she made a decision, he could not stop her.

"Your Majesty, do you really trust those three little ones?" The Blue Silver King felt that humans were untrustworthy, even if they were weak and young.
