Chapter 251: Chapter 95 Something's Not Right, Even Small Gestures Don't Work (Please Subscribe)_6
But this Cheng Zhihai clearly expects me to attend Cheng Guang's wedding in my capacity as the Emperor.
The accompanying gift cannot be merely perfunctory.
Even a token gesture won't suffice.
It has to be a grand gesture at the very least.
This is bad.
Emperor Zhou fell silent, watching the stiff expression on Cheng Zhihai's face break into a bright smile, feeling rather headache.
He had intended to get away with something cursory, but now it seemed that was no longer possible.
Those who can have the Emperor attend their wedding, under the heavens, are none other than princes and princesses.
If Cheng Zhihai hadn't mentioned it, Emperor Zhou might have sent some gifts as a simple gesture, but he would definitely not have attended in person.
But now, not only does he have to personally attend Cheng Guang's wedding, but he also has to bring along a generous gift.
Emperor Zhou now felt that his private treasury was about to suffer significantly.
......
Cheng Guang was completely unaware of what was happening at the court.
He had already returned to Duke Zhen's Mansion with the Queen of the South Ming and went straight to the Million Specie Garden.
As for the Queen of the South Ming, Cheng Guang had yet to decide what to do with her.
Keeping her by his side, he felt uneasy.
But if he harbored thoughts of killing her, he feared that before he could even lay hands on the Queen of the South Ming, a Demon Emperor might be provoked. Cheng Guang, a minor player, could handle someone like Wu Ling, a small rabbit, but facing a Demon Emperor would be suicidal.
Even if he killed the Queen of the South Ming, he would attract the attention of a Demon Emperor.
Having just managed to rid himself of the back-stabber Crown Prince, who liked to stab people in the back, Cheng Guang did not want to provoke a Demon Emperor and experience assassination attempts once again.
However, having said that.
Even if he didn't kill the Queen of the South Ming now, when that Abyss Demon Emperor notices something off about this incarnation of the Queen, would he let Cheng Guang go?
The answer is clear, he would not.
So, Cheng Guang not acting against the Queen of the South Ming was merely a delay, accomplishing nothing critical.

Cheng Guang sighed. If there was time to be delayed, he would delay it.
He would keep it quiet for as long as possible.
Even a brief period of peace was good.
He didn't know what kind of chaos being targeted by the Abyss Demon Emperor in the future would bring.
Cheng Guang had Black Cub cast a Qi suppression on the Queen of the South Ming, preventing her from using much of her power, and then he hid in his bedroom.
The moment the King of South Ming died, the voices of the system prompts had already sounded in his mind.
The task of killing the King of South Ming, which had taken so much time, was finally settled.
In the midst of the royal ceremony with numerous watchers and listeners, it wasn't appropriate for him to claim his system reward.
Now that he was back at the mansion, Cheng Guang couldn't wait, and immediately upon returning to his bedroom, began to relish the joy of opening a parcel.
"System, claim the task reward!"
Cheng Guang's words fell.
In front of him, strands of golden light unexpectedly emerged from the void, one after another, flowing forth.
Slowly coalescing.
They formed the shape of a sword.
The reward for this task of killing the King of South Ming was a famous sword called Tongyu.
Cheng Guang was not entirely clear about the level of a famous sword.
As the sword blade slowly took shape in front of him, he had not yet approached to feel the ancient and dignified aura emanating from the Tongyu Sword.
The blade seemed to be made from the purest mithril, adorned with a complex and intricate cloud pattern. These cloud patterns seemed to be flowing spiritual energy, trailing over the surface of the blade.
The hilt had the fierce appearance of a formidable beast, with a somewhat ferocious visage.
Cheng Guang slowly reached out and grasped the Tongyu Sword.
The moment Cheng Guang's fingertips touched the Tongyu Sword, it shifted from illusion to reality, becoming tangible.
At the same time, Cheng Guang felt an affinity with the sword.
He was about to draw the Tongyu Sword to test its sharpness.
A surge of information suddenly flowed from the sword into his mind.
[Tongyu Sword Decision]
The Tongyu Sword Decision, named after the Tongyu Sword.
Using Qi to control the sword, fusing sword energy with Qi to unleash the strongest combat power.
Cheng Guang merely glanced at the Tongyu Sword Decision and found it incredibly complex and abstruse.
It was no less difficult to comprehend than the Heavenly Gang Star Fight.
To master the Tongyu Sword Decision, it seemed he would need to spend additional time.
However, once he learned the Tongyu Sword Decision and combined it with the Tongyu Sword, he could foresee his strength climbing several more levels.
Having more techniques was always beneficial.
Cheng Guang contemplated thoughtfully, etching the Tongyu Sword Decision deep in his memory, and then examined the Tongyu Sword in his hand.
As he held the Tongyu Sword, Cheng Guang could distinctly feel as if his soul had merged into one entity with the sword, establishing an inexplicable connection.
At the same time, the Tongyu Sword was enveloped in strands of Qi.
It was as if the sword could breathe like a living being, inhaling and exhaling Qi. The sharp aura all over it was gradually growing stronger.
Cheng Guang himself also seemed to benefit from some feedback.
Noticing this, Cheng Guang exclaimed, "This sword can actually aid in my cultivation."
Normal swords, ordinary weapons, even if imbued with many precious resources and materials, couldn't achieve what the Tongyu Sword accomplished.
It was no different from rare Different Treasures.
Examining the Tongyu Sword, Cheng Guang realized that perhaps the Tongyu Sword was a sort of Different Treasure in itself?
Cheng Guang clicked his tongue in wonder and fastened the Tongyu Sword at his waist.
