Chapter 102: Your Majesty, Are You Flirting?

“Brother Nie, I never thought you were this kind of person,” someone said.

“Brother Nie is actually an lolicon, my faith has been shattered!” another person exclaimed.

“Ew, Brother Nie, how could you bear to…”

Everyone’s eyes widened as they looked at the petite and pitiful Ao Lan, and they couldn’t help but feel a pang of sympathy for her.

Nie Chen’s gaze met the crowd’s, and he noticed that their eyes were filled with disgust, disappointment, and even despair.

“Damn it, your words are a bit too much! I may have ridden her… wait no, not that kind of ride!” Nie Chen tried to explain, but the crowd’s gaze didn’t change, and some of the female disciples even took a step back in fear.

“It’s all your fault!” Nie Chen shouted, raising his fist.

“Brother Nie, what are you going to do?” someone asked.

“Brother Nie, are you planning to silence us? But we’ll never forget this fact!” another person exclaimed.

“Hammer Fist!” Nie Chen shouted, charging towards the crowd.

In an instant, cries of pain filled the air.

“Stop, stop, my head is going to explode!” someone begged.

After a while, the crowd of disciples from the Heavenly Cloud Palace covered their heads, their eyes welling up with tears.

Only when Nie Chen was sure that no one dared to mention the lolicon incident again did he finally calm down.

He had taken revenge and hammered many heads, and his comprehension had increased dramatically.

However, it was time to get down to business.

Nie Chen led Ao Lan into the Heavenly Cloud Palace and said, “Your Majesty, I’m back.”

Although Ao Lan was by his side, Nie Chen couldn’t address the empress as his wife, but his tone was still extremely intimate.

However, as he entered the grand hall, Nie Chen noticed that Chu Qingyue seemed to be hiding something.

She then looked at Ao Lan with a hint of displeasure and at Nie Chen with a mix of emotions.

“Could it be that my wife is jealous?” Nie Chen wondered.

But Ao Lan was just a little girl, and it was impossible for the empress to be jealous of her.

“Who is this girl?” Chu Qingyue asked, her voice cold.

“She’s the new Western Sea Dragon King, Ao Lan,” Nie Chen replied. “She was captured by Shu Zi’an and trapped in the Dragon Blood Array. I rescued her later.”

Chu Qingyue’s gaze swept over Ao Lan, and Ao Lan felt an intense pressure wash over her.

Ao Lan realized that this was the aura of a powerful emperor, something that Chu Qingyue could release unintentionally.

“So this is the strength of the human emperor,” Ao Lan thought, clenching her small fist.

Although she had heard of Chu Qingyue’s reputation, Ao Lan never thought that the empress would be so powerful.

However, this might be a good thing for the Western Sea Dragon Palace.

“You rescued her, which means you’ve already destroyed the Dragon Blood Array?” Chu Qingyue asked Nie Chen.

“Yes, I killed Shu Zi’an and destroyed the array,” Nie Chen replied.

Chu Qingyue was taken aback but quickly nodded.

Shu Zi’an possessed the True Body of Enlightenment and was known as the number one genius in the world.

Although Chu Qingyue had faith in Nie Chen’s abilities, she didn’t expect him to complete the mission so quickly.

Nie Chen smiled and said, “Your Majesty, I have a request.”

“What is it?” Chu Qingyue asked.

“It’s about the reward,” Nie Chen said. “Your Majesty always gives me verbal rewards. Can I have something else this time?”

Chu Qingyue’s gaze dodged the question, and she said, “No, no, it’s not possible. The empress can only give verbal rewards, nothing else.”

Nie Chen didn’t believe her and said, “You’re lying, Your Majesty. I know you have other ways to reward me.”

The two of them went back and forth, with Nie Chen teasing Chu Qingyue and Chu Qingyue getting flustered.

Ao Lan watched in confusion, unsure of what to make of the situation.

She had never seen the empress act like this before, and she didn’t understand the dynamics between Nie Chen and Chu Qingyue.

It seemed like they were… flirting?

Ao Lan asked, “Excuse me, Your Majesty, I’m not familiar with human customs. Are you and Nie Chen… flirting?”

Chu Qingyue and Nie Chen immediately denied it, their voices cold and their gazes icy.

Ao Lan was intimidated and quickly covered her mouth, not daring to speak again.

After a while, Chu Qingyue coughed to break the awkwardness and asked, “So, what happened? Why did you bring her to the Heavenly Cloud Palace?”

Nie Chen explained the situation, including the discovery of the Dragon Blood Array and the rescue of Ao Lan.

He also mentioned that the Western Sea Dragon Palace was under attack and in danger.

Chu Qingyue’s expression turned serious, and she said, “I have a connection with the Western Sea Dragon Palace, and I’ve met the previous dragon king. Although they took advantage of the situation to capture Ao Lan, the palace is not easy to breach. If the enemy wants to take it down, they’ll need to send more people, maybe even the emperor himself.”

Nie Chen’s eyes lit up as he understood the situation.

“Let’s ambush the emperor,” Chu Qingyue said, her voice cold. “Since he wants to attack the Heavenly Cloud Palace, we’ll use his life as the price to pay.”

Nie Chen’s fighting spirit soared, and he exclaimed, “That’s my wife! Let’s go beat him up!”

However, Chu Qingyue said, “Not yet. If we go too early, the emperor might not show up. So…”

Chu Qingyue’s voice became softer, and she said, “You can come to my chambers first. I’ll give you your reward.”

Nie Chen’s eyes widened in surprise.
