A glint flashed in Lin Hao's eyes, and a vague plan gradually took shape in his mind.
Douluo Continent might become a breakthrough for him to solve the "immortality problem" of the Shrouding the Heavens World, or rather, an important "resource base".
The Longevity Substance there, the Divine Realm there...
They all contain immense value.
"But... how do we get there?" Lin Hao frowned slightly.
How Snow Empress came to the Shrouding the Heavens World" is something she herself cannot explain, let alone use as a coordinate or passage to take herself there.
"Never mind, there's always a way out."
Lin quickly relaxed his brow and stopped worrying about it.
Having reached his level of cultivation, he deeply understands that opportunities cannot be forced, nor should they be pursued too hastily.
Now that the move has been made, let's wait and see how things unfold.
As his cultivation level improves and his understanding of the rules of the two realms deepens, an opportunity may naturally arise.
Just because we can't do it now doesn't mean we can't do it in the future.
He murmured confidently, then waved his hand, temporarily suppressing his thoughts about the Douluo Continent.
He stood up, stretched his limbs, and the illusory starlight around him flickered.
"Someone come here," he said calmly.
A figure appeared silently in the hall; it was Jiang Wanwan.
She bowed and asked, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
"Prepare for a bath," Lin Hao instructed casually.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Jiang Wanwan replied respectfully, then disappeared again to make the arrangements.
White Jade Capital, in an elegant palace garden.
Jiang Wanwan appeared and said to the sisters Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing who were standing there:
"His Majesty is about to take a bath; you two sisters should go and serve him."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuyun blushed instantly, exchanging a shy and nervous glance.
Although they had been living in the Heavenly Court for some time and their awe of Lin Hao had grown day by day, this was the first time they had ever experienced such an intimate act as serving him during his bath.
Jiang Wanwan observed the expressions on the two sisters' faces and coldly instructed them:
"Remember, this is your first time serving His Majesty during his bath, so be sure to follow the rules carefully."
His Majesty dislikes deliberate flattery and detests frivolous and seductive behavior.
You just need to do your job well and remain respectful. Don't do anything unnecessary, understand?
Zhu Zhuqing quickly lowered her head and whispered, "Yes, Sister Jiang, we understand."
Zhu Zhuyun blushed and nodded in agreement, "Yes, Sister Jiang, how could we... how could we dare to even think of tempting His Majesty?"
"Yes, that's good to know."
Jiang Wanwan nodded in satisfaction, her expression softening slightly. "Although His Majesty is dignified, he is not a harsh person."
As long as you follow the rules and serve His Majesty diligently, His Majesty will know. Go then.
"Yes."
The two sisters responded in unison, straightened their appearance, suppressed their shyness and trepidation, and turned to walk towards the Star-Picking Tower.
They knew this was both a test and perhaps...
It was also a rare opportunity to experience the unfathomable aura of the Heavenly Emperor up close.
Watching the two sisters' departing figures, a barely perceptible glint flashed in Jiang Wanwan's eyes.
It gave them the opportunity to access higher-level things... Whether they can seize it depends on their own Fortune.
Douluo Continent.
As Jiang Wanwan's words, "His Majesty is about to bathe, you two sisters should go and serve him," echoed through the Heavenly Screen...
Shrek Academy.
Flender, Zhao Wuji, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Ning Rongrong, and others were sitting together watching the Heavenly Screen after finishing their training.
An eerie silence fell instantly.
"Mu... Mubai..."
Oscar's sausage fell onto the table with a "thud," and he subconsciously looked at the empty seat next to him—the seat that belonged to Dai Mubai.
This position has remained vacant ever since Dai Mubai was taken away by Heavenly Screen and imprisoned in the Heavenly Court Prison.
Tang San frowned, a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
Although he and Dai Mubai hadn't known each other for very long, they had developed some friendship.
Now, hearing that Dai Mubai's fiancée is going to serve another man while he bathes in another world...
The humiliation was simply unimaginable.
"If Boss Dai finds out..."
Ma Hongjun smacked his lips, his chubby face jiggling. He seemed about to say something crude, but seeing the Grandmaster's gloomy face, he swallowed his words.
Flender adjusted his glasses, the lenses reflecting the light of the Heavenly Screen, his tone carrying a hint of a businessman's shrewdness and helplessness:
"Sigh, that kid Dai Mubai..."
This incident has completely disgraced the Star Luo Imperial Family family.
However, from another perspective, if even a casually given cultivation technique from the Heavenly Court could drive someone like the Snow Empress mad, then the fact that the Zhu Zhuqing sisters could serve there might mean...
They also gained tremendous benefits.
But the price...
The price was the loss of her dignity as the fiancée of a prince of the Star Luo Empire, and the ridicule of the Star Luo Imperial Family from the entire Douluo Continent.
The Star Luo Empire, Imperial Palace.
"Bang!"
Dai Tianfeng slammed his palm on the imperial desk, instantly causing cracks to spread across the hard rosewood surface.
His face was ashen, his chest heaved violently, and veins bulged on his forehead.
"This is outrageous! This is outrageous!!"
Below, the civil and military officials were silent as cicadas in winter, not daring to even breathe loudly.
The prince's fiancée, the future crown princess, was ordered to serve another man while he bathed!
This is not just a slap in the face to the Star Luo Imperial Family; it's a repeated trampling and rubbing of the Star Luo Empire's dignity underfoot!
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
An old minister, steeling himself, advised, "This matter... the Zhu Family sisters are in another world, their fate is not their own, and the Heavenly Court is powerful..."
"Unable to control one's own destiny?!"
Dai Tianfeng laughed angrily, "Look at them! Do you think they have no choice in the situation?!"
Jiang Wanwan told them not to be tempted, and they blushed and agreed!
Did they ever even think of Mubai, Weisi, or the Star Luo Empire?
Dai Weisi stood below, his face equally grim.
Although he and Dai Mubai were mortal enemies vying for the throne, at this moment, a sense of humiliation, a feeling of "shared misfortune," arose spontaneously.
His fiancée, Zhu Zhuyun, was also there!
Frustration, anger...
But the thought that even someone like the Snow Empress had to bow down before him...
Dai Weisi was speechless again, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
The Spirit Hall, the Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong sat high on the Pope throne, her exquisite face revealing neither joy nor anger, but the unconscious tapping of her fingertips on the armrests showed that her heart was not at peace.
"Ha, the Star Luo Imperial Family... they've completely lost face."
Ghost Douluo Gui Mei chuckled sinisterly, a hint of schadenfreude in his voice.
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan also covered his mouth and chuckled, "Indeed, the fiancées of two princes are serving the same man at the same time... tsk tsk, what a 'lucky' life."
