Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 741 Gu Xu's reputation was harmed
An hour later, Xiao Wanjun finally couldn't stand the pressure of this "discussion" and surrendered completely in Gu Xu's arms.

At this moment, she was lying lazily on his chest, her cheek pressed against his shoulder.

Looking at His Majesty's still energetic appearance, and then feeling my own fatigue and emptiness, after the joy, an indescribable sadness quietly welled up in my heart.

"Your Majesty...Gu Lang." She called softly.

"Hmm?" Gu Xu looked down at her and stroked her smooth back with his hand.

Xiao Wanjun has a voluptuous figure, and is not without excess fat, but this perfect amount of fat makes her body curves smooth and soft, without any sharp edges, just like a natural pearl.

To use Gu Xu's words from his previous life, this is exactly the enviable "perfect hourglass-shaped, slightly plump figure."

He finally understood why some people always said that "slightly plump women are the most perfect."

Not to mention anything else, the soft and fleshy touch alone is enough to make him linger.

Whenever he touched her skin, the snow-white and tender almond tofu that he loved to eat would always appear in his mind.

Of course, Gu Xu’s feelings were more than just these.

Just now, when the two were closest to each other, he clearly felt an invisible force slowly surging from Xiao Wanjun. This force seemed illusory, but in fact it was as majestic and heavy as a mountain, carrying a vast and ancient aura, penetrating his meridians and reaching the Niwan Palace.

Gu Xu knew that this was the power of luck hidden in Xiao Wanjun, which was quietly transferred to him through the opportunity of dual cultivation.

He already controlled the vast power of incense and vows in the Great Wilderness World, and at this moment, when the power of luck gathered on him, the countless lines of cause and effect on his body instantly became thicker and tougher.

These lines of cause and effect seemed to have life, connecting him more closely with the mountains, rivers, seas, underground dragon veins, and all living beings in the wilderness, forming an invisible yet strong net that enveloped the entire world.

In addition, there was an indescribable weight weighing heavily on his shoulders.

That is the fate of the wilderness.

From this moment on, his fate was closely intertwined with the wilderness and became inseparable. They prospered and suffered together.

"You are eternally young and energetic, and you will live as long as the heavens in the future," Xiao Wanjun said softly, "but I am just a mortal, and I am nearly thirty now. If one day, I am old and no longer beautiful, with white hair on my temples and wrinkles all over my face, and I can no longer make you happy and satisfied, then, can you -"

"——Idiot, what are you thinking about?" Gu Xu chuckled. "If I can successfully advance to the ninth realm, the rules of the entire Great Wilderness world will be under my control. By then, as long as I don't agree, how dare Lao Shu come to you?"

His tone sounded nonchalant, but it revealed an unshakable confidence.

Xiao Wanjun raised her head slightly and fixed her eyes on his handsome face.

She couldn't help but feel a little emotional in her heart - the most powerful and strongest man in the world was now pinned down by her. As a mortal with no cultivation, it seemed that her life was complete.

After a short rest, Gu Xu picked up Xiao Wanjun and walked towards the bathtub behind the screen.

The bathtub was large enough to accommodate three people.

As his mind moved slightly, the tub was instantly filled with warm water, and a few elegant petals floated on the water, emitting a faint fragrance. Curls of hot air rose up, shrouding the surroundings in a hazy mist.

Gu Xu leaned over and put Xiao Wanjun into the bathtub, and the warm water wrapped around her creamy skin.

Then he stepped into the bathtub and sat down next to her.

At this moment, he keenly caught a glimpse of doubt in Xiao Wanjun's eyes, as if she wanted to ask something but hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong, Yan'er?" he asked, "Could it be that you are unwilling to accept the defeat in the "Discussion" just now, and want to fight me again?"

"Of course not." Xiao Wanjun quickly shook her head.

She paused, as if organizing her words, and then whispered, "I just didn't expect that His Majesty would be much more gentle today than I thought."

"Oh?" Gu Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and a playful smile on his lips, "Then according to your idea, what should I do to you? Could it be that in your eyes, I am a tyrant who likes to destroy beautiful women with his hands?"

"No, of course not!" Xiao Wanjun waved her hands quickly and denied it once again.

After hesitating for a long time, she finally said frankly under Gu Xu's gaze: "It was that day when I went to the Qingming Inner Guard Office to look for the Concubine Xian, and I happened to see her looking at some drawings."

"What drawings?" Gu Xu seemed to have guessed something.

Xiao Wanjun's voice was as weak as a mosquito's hum: "There are some things painted on it, such as 'Mianzi Bell', 'Random Car', 'Cloud Bed', 'Rain Bed', 'Belt'..."

Her voice got lower and lower, and finally she almost didn't dare to look up at him, "I...I thought you liked those."

Gu Xu burst out laughing.

Shangguan Jin secretly studied those fancy tricks, which actually caused his reputation to be damaged and he was blamed for no reason!
He is obviously a serious person, okay?

However, a few days ago, Shangguan Jin stole a pair of leg irons from the Ministry of Justice, and wore them, a bellyband, and lay on his bed with a pitiful expression, calling "brother". He was really helpless against such a scene.

"I don't like it at all," Gu Xu said solemnly, "I have no interest in those things."

…………

The next morning, the emperor issued an edict, saying that Xiao Wanjun was intelligent and talented, and had made many contributions to Daxia, so he specially named her "De Fei".

When the news came out, it did not come as a surprise to the world.

After all, Xiao Wanjun has frequently served His Majesty in recent years, assisting in handling government affairs, and has long become his indispensable right-hand man.

Many people felt that something should have happened between them long ago, since they were together every day like this.

However, it was not until the third year of Yuanshi that His Majesty took Xiao Wanjun into the harem and gave her a status, which seemed a little too late.

But Xiao Wanjun knew Gu Xu's intentions very well.

She knew that when almost all the former royal family members were demoted to commoners, she was the only one who could stay by His Majesty's side and be favored, which would inevitably attract some malicious rumors. Many people believed that she was able to enjoy this honor by using despicable means to please the king with her beauty.

For example, Bai Yuanjiang, whom I met on the Mid-Autumn Festival night that year.

But things are different now.

She is an important member of the cabinet, the drafter of countless political decrees, the compiler of many Taoist methods in the "Qingdu Fantasy Realm", the creator and commander of the puppet army, and the conqueror of the "Cang Yao World".

Such a glorious deed will leave a brilliant page in the history books no matter which dynasty it happened in.

She seemed to silently prove with her deeds that even an uncultivated mortal could, with his talent and wisdom, change the world and lay a solid foundation for the coming prosperity.

Nowadays, no one talks about her "using her beauty to please the king" anymore. Instead, they regard her and Gu Xu as a couple who are of one mind and work together to create a great cause, which will be passed down through the ages.

At this moment, Xiao Wanjun was riding in a carriage, accompanied by a guard of honor, and carrying the valuables she had packed from her own residence, heading for Changchun Garden. She looked out the window at the houses and people that were constantly receding outside, and couldn't help but silently said in her heart:

"Thank you, Your Majesty."
