“What？”
Ye Qiu stood up directly, looking completely confused.
He just couldn’t figure out what the Great Zhou Emperor was crazy about and why he wanted to marry Princess Ning’an to him？
Niu Dali and Nangong Xiaoxiao also had expressions of astonishment on their faces.
“The Great Zhou Emperor has great courage. He issued the imperial decree so quickly.” The Long-browed True Man was secretly happy.
Nangong Xiaoxiao took a look at Ye Qiu and asked the servant, “What else did the imperial decree say？”
The servant replied, “The imperial decree said that the official competition will be held tomorrow.”
“Competition？” Nangong Xiaoxiao frowned. “What does that mean？”
The servant said, “There are many people who came to compete for the position of the imperial son-in-law this time, but the Great Zhou Emperor wants to marry Princess Ning’an to Ye Changsheng, which makes many people unconvinced.”
“So, the Great Zhou Emperor issued an imperial decree to hold a competition in the imperial palace tomorrow.”
“At that time, geniuses from all countries can challenge Ye Changsheng. If anyone can defeat Ye Changsheng, they can become the imperial son-in-law of the Great Zhou.”
Nangong Xiaoxiao waved her hand and said, “I see. You can go down now！”
As soon as the servant left, the Long-browed True Man chuckled and said, “Little brat, congratulations on becoming the imperial son-in-law.”
“Congratulations my ass！” Ye Qiu said angrily. “The Great Zhou Emperor is clearly putting me on the fire with this move.”
“Why does he want to marry Princess Ning’an to me？ I don’t even know him.”
“It’s so strange！”
The Long-browed True Man laughed and said, “It’s not strange at all. After all, your reputation is well-known. You’re not only the first on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, but also have the potential to become an emperor. If I had a daughter, I would also want you to be my son-in-law.”
Pfft——
Nan Gong Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle charmingly.
Niu Dali said simply and honestly, “I think what the Taoist priest said makes sense. Otherwise, the king wouldn’t have…”
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Qiu gave him a look, and Niu Dali quickly shut his mouth.
“No, it’s still not right.”
Ye Qiu said, The Great Zhou Emperor issued an edict for me to have a comparison in the imperial palace tomorrow. Doesn’t t that mean he already knows I’ve come to the Great Zhou Imperial City?
“How did he find out？”
“Besides us, who else knows my whereabouts？”
The Long-browed True Man said, “Could it be that Uncle Zhu leaked your whereabouts？”
“Impossible.” Ye Qiu said. “Along the way, I never said I was Ye Changsheng. Even if Uncle Zhu knows my whereabouts, he doesn’t know I’m Ye Changsheng.”
“Could it be Miss Rou’er？” The Long-browed True Man said. “When we were in Feilai City, you were alone with Miss Rou’er for a long time. Could it be that you accidentally let it slip？”
“Do you think I’m a horny bastard？” Ye Qiu said. “This time I came to Central Continent, I didn’t say I was Ye Changsheng just to avoid causing trouble. How could I possibly tell my name to Girl Rou’er？”
“Strange, how on earth did the Great Zhou Emperor find out？”
The Long-browed True Man said, “I have a guess. The experts of the Great Zhou royal family used secret techniques or secret treasures to calculate your whereabouts.”
“There is really such a possibility.” Ye Qiu thought of the Wuji Tianzun.
Back then, it was the Wuji Tianzun who used the Yin-Yang Void Mirror to track him down from thousands of miles away.
Could it be that the Great Zhou royal family also has some secret treasure？
“It’s still not right. Even if the Great Zhou royal family has a secret treasure and can find my whereabouts, why do they have to make me the consort？”
“I admit that my talent is not bad, but without my consent, why do they still want to marry the princess to me？”
“What if I don’t go to participate in the competition? Then wouldn’t the Great Zhou royal family make a huge joke?”
“The Great Zhou Emperor has managed the Great Zhou so well. He is definitely not a rash person. He must have full confidence in doing this.”
“His actions are as if I have already promised to be the consort of the Great Zhou.”
“This matter is really strange. Strange.”
The Long-browed True Man snickered, thinking that it was not strange at all because I helped you negotiate with them.
Little did he know that his little action was discovered by Ye Qiu.
“Old thing, what are you laughing at？” Ye Qiu asked.
The Long-browed True Man pretended to know nothing and looked around： “Did I laugh？ Did this poor Taoist laugh？”
“You laughed, I saw it.” Ye Qiu asked： “Old thing, tell me honestly, did you do something behind my back？”
The Long-browed True Man said： “Absolutely not.”
“You denied it so quickly, there must be a problem.” Ye Qiu shouted ： “Quickly say.”
The Long-browed True Man said： “Really not…”
“I remembered.” Niu Dali said： “Master, yesterday the Taoist took away the token that Uncle Zhu gave you.”
When these words came out, Ye Qiu had a feeling of seeing the light through the clouds.
“Old thing, did you take Uncle Zhu’s token and go to see the Great Zhou Emperor？” Ye Qiu asked.
“How is it possible！” The Long-browed True Man took out the token and threw it on the table, saying： “I went to the brothel yesterday, and this token was not used.”
“Which brothel did you go to？ What’s the name of the brothel？ How many girls did you call？ When did you go？” Ye Qiu said： “If you say it, I think with Sister Xiaoxiao’s methods, it should be found out soon.”
The Long-browed True Man was angry and said： “Little bastard, what do you mean？ Are you going to investigate me？ Is it necessary？ I have been with you for so long, don’t you think I will harm you？”
“It’s not that you will harm me, but whether you will do something behind my back is uncertain.” Ye Qiu said： “Old thing, tell me your whereabouts yesterday in detail.”
The Long-Browed True Man stiffened his neck and said, “I just won’t say. What can you do to me？”
”Don’t want to say, huh？ Fine, then I’ll beat you until you do.” With that, Ye Qiu took out the God-Beating Whip.
The Long-Browed True Man’s face turned pale with fright and he said in a hurry, “Little brat, what are you doing？”
”Quickly put away the God-Beating Whip.”
”I did that for your own good.”
Ye Qiu said, “So you really have something fishy going on. Spill it. What did you do？”
The Long-Browed True Man said, “I didn’t do much. I just went to see the Emperor of the Great Zhou and King Wu of Zhou and asked them to marry Princess Ning’an to you.”
Ye Qiu looked disbelieving and said, “That’s all？”
The Long-Browed True Man said, “I also talked to them about a few conditions by the way.”
”What conditions？” Ye Qiu asked.
”Little brat, can you put away the God-Beating Whip？”
”Hurry up and say！”
The Long-Browed True Man said, “They agreed to three conditions for me.”
“First, help you find the remaining half of the human race and the whereabouts of the Nether Race.”
”Second, they won’t interfere when you look for women outside in the future.”
”Third, help you deal with the Underworld！”
”They agreed to all three conditions.”
Ye Qiu said, “What conditions did the Emperor of the Great Zhou and King Wu of Zhou set？”
The Long-Browed True Man said, “They have two conditions.”
”First, you have to help the Great Zhou unify Zhongzhou.”
”Second, when you have a child with Princess Ning’an, the first child has to take their surname.”
Ye Qiu asked, “That’s it？”
The Long-Browed True Man shook his head： “That’s all！”
Ye Qiu’s face was gloomy and cold, and he didn’t speak for a long time.
Instantly, the atmosphere became heavy, and everyone held their breath and didn’t dare to make a sound.
After a while.
Pa！
The God-Beating Whip in Ye Qiu’s hand suddenly fell and hit the table in front of the Long-Browed True Man. He changed from anger to laughter： “You old thing, you finally did a reliable thing, hahaha…”
