Chapter 125: Marriage

The term "Dragon Fortune," also known as "Country Luck," is one of the most important factor in the founding of a nation.

When the boundaries of a nation are established and the first Monarch ascends the throne, there will be a merging of mystical energy and special powers akin to the life forces of all living beings. These energies converge upon the throne, forming the Dragon Fortune that can be used by the Emperor.

Using this Dragon Fortune, an Emperor gains the qualification to refine the luck of his nation.

This was a rare piece of knowledge that Luo Wusheng managed to find from his past memories.

The crucial moment when the Dragon Fortune forms gives rise to a unique stone known as the "Dragon Fortune Stone." Even though he was someone who loved collecting rare stones from all over the world, he never managed to acquire this treasure.

Originally, according to his plans before his awakened memories, he intended to wait until he broke through the Nascent Soul realm, then establish a nation overseas to obtain a Dragon Fortune Stone through that means.

Unfortunately, his awakened memories of future developments left him with nothing but a quiet sigh.

Following the original story's progression, within a short year, he hadn't even managed to advance to the Nascent Soul realm before becoming one of the first batch of people who died in the Demon Purging War.

Forget about creating a nation, he first needs to find a way to survive the upcoming Demon Purging War.

At this moment, Luo Wusheng gazed inwardly at the small seed revolving beside his golden core, his gaze continuously flickering.

He was certain that the Dragon Fortune was not something that he had made himself.

After all, he wasn't an Emperor.

However, right now, there was someone around him with a similar status to the founding Emperor..

The Empress of the Immortal Nation.

Despite being the former Monarch of the Netherkin Nation, due to her weakened state, Yao Ji, the Nine-Tailed Fox girl, couldn't condense any Dragon Fortune.

"But, if this Dragon Fortune is the Empress's, why would it appear within me?"

Luo Wusheng mumbled to himself, but he already had a conjecture in mind.

Without a doubt, this bit of Dragon Fortune only appeared after Miss Kirin used the "Synthesized Dream Convergence Technique" on him.

'Did the connection established by the technique manage to link me to the Empress Imperial Alter Ego? Could that be the reason why I'm able to gain a bit of her Dragon Fortune?'

Luo Wusheng's gaze narrowed slightly.

Why did Miss Kirin, who was the Empress's Mortal Alter Ego, use the Synthesized Dream Convergence Technique on him?

Was it because of his performance outside the Ascending Immortality Lake yesterday, which made her suspect he had already learned the secret of her being her Mortal Alter Ego?

Come to think of it, why did he even think that Miss Kirin could be the Empress's Mortal Alter Ego?

'...Yue Xuanji.'

The answer came to him in an instant.

Upon remembering the thousand years old mesugaki. Luo Wusheng fell into contemplation.

He hadn't forgotten her identity.

The Tower Master of the Heavenly Divination Tower, Yue Xuanji, was undoubtedly not as simple as she appeared on the surface. Despite acting like a brat, she is undoubtedly one of the best Diviner in the whole history.

She's capable enough to become one of the people who control the chess piece in this game called 'Life'.

As for himself...

With his current connection to that big shot, Luo Wusheng didn't feel like he could remain detached.

If all he had done was to help her release the Netherqueen from her sealing formation, then maybe it could be considered a mutually beneficial cooperation.

However, looking at it now, he had already received the gifts she had planned for him long ago.

Every step he took last night was within her arrangement.

Releasing the Netherqueen from her sealing formation, obtaining the human race's luck from the sealing formation, encountering Miss Kirin, and then have Miss Kirin become suspicious of him, to the point where she would use the Synthesized Dream Convergence Technique on him, making him connect to her Imperial Alter Ego.

The end result was this small seed of luck revolving beside his golden core.

'But what's the use of this thing?'

It seemed to enhance his luck, but the potency of the luck enhancement was only slightly better than the effect of the black stocking that he had made for his Junior Sister.

After all, If this thing could substantially improve his luck, he wouldn't have been awakened by a nightmare.

After some time, Luo Wusheng decided to stop thinking about this matter altogether.

After all, from their brief interaction last night, Yue Xuanji didn't seem to harbor any ill intentions toward him.

As for the matter of that white haired grandma having a scheme related to him, he cared even less.

Thinking about the image of the golden rat that has become a Buddha that Yue Xuanji showed him last night, and the mysterious bald coachman whose background had always been unknown, he had practically confirmed that the Buddhist Sect has also started to conspire against him.

Compared to falling into the schemes of the Buddhist Sect bald donkey, he much prefer into being in the palm of the white haired loli.

Having a Tribulation Crossing-stage cultivator who could see the past, present, and the future as his backer would give him more confidence when facing the Buddhist Sect that had been hidden in the shadows all this time.

"In five days—- no, it should be four days from now."

Thinking about the fate changing event that Yue Xuanji had told him last night, Luo Wusheng pondered.

What would happen at the "Wandering Immortal Inn" in four days?

'Regardless of the circumstances, it would be best for me to be thoroughly prepared.'

Take matters into one's own hands.

So, Luo Wusheng decided that he would completely reserve that inn and make all the preparations he could think of. Opportunities are only given to those who are prepared.

With his thoughts sorted out, Luo Wusheng finally got up and welcomed a new day.

'Oh right, I almost forgot...'

...

Inside a serene and elegant room.

Little Yuli pouted.

Looking at the Demon Sect's Holy Saint sitting across from her, who was grinning, her little hand clenched into a fist.

"...So, you tricked me into opening the door just to come in and annoy me?"

Little Yuli had a friendly smile on her face, but the veins on his forehead twitched.

"How can you put it like that? Everything I said was the absolute truth, my dear Yuli~"

Luo Wusheng's tone was exaggerated, but he placed a black horse piece on the board, connecting it with a black castle chess piece.

The young girl clenched her fist even tighter, then slowly loosened her grip.

A white rook chess piece that has been crushed into small fragments fell onto the chessboard.

"Truth?"

Little Yuli smiled in a sardonic manner.

She was genuinely curious about who the mysterious figure that entered the depths of the Ascending Immortality Lake and released the suppressed Netherqueen really was. That's why she had allowed this annoying bully into her room when he said that if she played a game of chess with him, doesn't matter if she won or not. But in the end, all she got was a "Hmm, it's me."

You shouldn't just make up lies like that!

Although this bully in front of her was undoubtedly talented, possessing a Golden Core foundation that could even kill a Nascent Soul cultivator, no matter what, it was an exaggeration to think that someone with Golden Core cultivation could act beneath the notice of a Tribulation Crossing cultivator.

Furthermore, he didn't provide any evidence. He acted all nonchalant with a "believe it or not" look.

As she thought more about it, the angrier Little Yuli became. She sneered, "What a blatant lie, why don't you just tell me that you married the Immortal Nation Empress last night?"

Did he really think she was so easily deceived?

However, as her words fell, she noticed a strange expression in this annoying bully eyes as he looked at her.

"Cough cough cough—"

"Well— Uh— Speaking of that— Right, it seems your chess skills have fallen behind a bit compared to when we played through the sword messages?"
