“How shall I treat Ninth Princess Xia Yuan?”
Wang Ping thought about the matter concerning Ninth Princess Xia Yuan, and was in deep contemplation for a moment.
Through this simulation, it can be seen that as long as he entered the Sword Spirit Sect, Ninth Princess Xia Yuan would be harmless to him.
“A generation of Empress, dying prematurely, it would be too much of a pity. If she didn’t die, the great Xia could revive, and the people of Xia Country could live in peace and work happily, and not need to suffer the casualties of tens of millions. ”
In the end, a decision formed in Wang Ping’s heart.
Not to mention, as long as he kept her safe, he could owe her a big favor, and it would be of great benefit in the future. As for finding MO Fan through her, that was just a matter by the way.
On the next day, when Wang Ping came downstairs to have breakfast at the inn, he saw that Xia Yuan and her team were already sitting there, with a variety of breakfast dishes on the table, and their aroma wafting in the air.
“Mr. Wang, good morning. Would you like to join us for breakfast?” When she saw Wang Ping coming down, Xia Yuan waved her folding fan and extended the invitation with a smile.
“Sure.” Wang Ping nodded and sat down.
“The weather is lovely today, and I want to invite Mr. Wang to take a walk around Black Wind Town with me. Do you have any spare time today, Mr. Wang?” When they had finished breakfast, Xia Yuan extended the invitation once again with a smile.
“If Yuan invites me, I naturally have the time.” Wang Ping nodded slightly, his gaze deep, and his words bearing a profound meaning: “However...”
“What is ‘however’?” Yuan Xia curiously inquired, while the Old Woman and Dong’er both looked at Wang Ping.
“However, Ninth Princess, I advise you to return to the Imperial Palace as soon as possible.”
Seeing that they were all looking at him, Wang Ping didn’t say it out loud, but instead conveyed it to Ninth Princess Xia Yuan through sound transmission.
At his words, Xia Yuan’s pupils contracted involuntarily. She stared at Wang Ping in disbelief, her face revealing her surprise.
The change in Xia Yuan’s expression caught the Old Woman’s attention, who shot Wang Ping a deep look, her brow slightly furrowed.
After learning about Wang Ping’s talents, both her mistress and the Old
Woman regarded him highly, and this was not the place for her to intervene.
“Nothing.” Xia Yuan shook her head slightly and did not reveal the content of their conversation to the Old Woman.
“Mr. Wang, someone like you who has such exceptional talents, roaming the world freely, is a waste. Why not follow me and become my right-hand man? You can make a difference,” Xia Yuan then said earnestly to Wang Ping: “Once I ascend the throne, I will certainly repay you.”
“Thank you for your kindness, Ninth Princess, but I’m used to leisure and have no interest in holding a government post.”
Wang Ping shook his head and directly declined.
It was safer to stay in the Sword Spirit Sect. As long as he did not attract the attention of Zhang Yuan, the Master of the Sword Spirit Sect, he could grow peacefully and lie low until he died.
If he came to the capital to serve as an official and entered the whirlpool of power, his strength would still not be strong enough to ensure his safety.
Even if he revealed his identity as a 4th tier alchemist, it wouldn’t ensure a peaceful and prosperous life for him, but instead could possibly attract disaster.
“Oh, what a pity,” Xia Yuan sounded extremely regretful, and asked, “So, what do you plan to do next, Mr. Wang?”
“I will join the Sword Spirit Sect, seeking peace,” Wang Ping shared his plan.
“The Sword Spirit Sect...” Xia Yuan’s eyes flickered, and she smiled helplessly.
It seemed that getting a personality like Wang Ping on board might be a long shot.
Even though she had a dream of walking side by side with Wang Ping, discussing major world affairs, trying to touch the human heart like her ancestors, and making them follow her, it seemed that this approach simply did not work on Wang Ping.
She could see that Wang Ping had a very determined will and could not be influenced.
Moreover, thinking about what Wang Ping had mentioned earlier about her returning to the Palace soon, Xia Yuan pondered over many thoughts.
“Mr. Wang, if you ever change your mind, you can come and find me whenever you want, I would be more than happy to welcome you,” said Xia Yuan with a slight bow, her face looking earnest.
This time, she did not use true Qi voice transmission, but said it directly.
“Hmm.” Even though Wang Ping would most likely not change his mind, he did not want to decline her outright and so, nodded slightly..
