Evil Emperor’s Wild Consort 1688 Three Years 18

Aunt Xiang helped Cui Rong back into bed. She then left quickly, afraid that the Li family would be unhappy if they found out that she had blurted out this information. That would be horrible.

Though the Li family was not considered to be very powerful, to the villagers, they were like huge monsters. How could a normal citizen expect to dispute with them? That would be digging their own grave!

Not too long after Aunt Xiang had left, a group of people entered the home. The leader of the group was the Young Master of the Li family, Li Ying.

"Cui Rong, have you considered it? Hand Que'er over to me and I will send someone to give you medical treatment!"

Li Ying looked at Cui Rong arrogantly as if he was doing her a huge favor by being charitable.

"Young Master Li, I've told you this, Que'er has recognized someone from the First City as her Master. She can't go back on her word. I'd like you to leave, Young Master Li."

"Cui Rong, if you won't do this the easy way, we can do it the hard way! What kind of existence does the First City hold? It's like a kingdom of G.o.ds to us secular world people. Que'er's talents are indeed substantial but she's not so exceptional that someone from the First City would have taken notice of her. You should find a better excuse to reject me. Do you really think that I would believe that a member of the First City had taken notice of Que'er?"

Cui Rong was shaken and quickly explained, "That lady was really from the First City. Besides, she has even given the First City's token to me and asked Que'er to find her in the First City when she is older. I'm telling the truth."

"Hahaha."

Li Ying burst into wild laughter. "Cui Rong, if you had not made this excuse up to reject me then you've been deceived! I will now educate you on how the First City operates! Martial Saint cultivators are the starting rank for First City cultivators! Besides, I can tell you that most families don't have the right to hold entry tokens into the First City. Only the Governer's Palace and the Four Great Protectors are in possession of those tokens in the First City."

He then laughed icily. "You claim that she had given you an entry token from the First City? This means that she might have been from one of the Four Great Protectors. Do you think that I'm a fool? The Four Great Protectors are like G.o.ds. Why would they have taken notice of Que'er?"

Actually, he had only heard news regarding the First City from the mouths of others. He was not well-versed in the inner workings of the First City at all.

For example, the Secret Order's existence was not in his area of knowledge...

"She had appeared from the sky."

Suddenly, Cui Rong remembered something and quickly exclaimed, "I had seen it very clearly. That lady had descended from the sky. She has great power! She must be a member of the First City."

"Haha."

Li Ying burst into laughter again. "Descended from the sky? Cui Rong, you really are an idiot. Let me tell you something. As long as a person is at the Martial Emperor rank, they can fly across the sky. The Li family has several Martial Emperors amongst us. I, myself, will soon break through to the Martial Emperor rank too. This doesn't count for much. You definitely haven't seen the world! You would think that if one could fly, that person must be from the First City? What a joke!"

"No!" Cui Rong vehemently denied Li Ying. "Que'er has accepted her possession. That proves that she is now her disciple. As humans, we can't break our promises! Otherwise, how are we any different from animals?"
