The term “Dragon Fortune,” also known as “Country’s Fortune,” is the foundation of a nation.
When the boundaries of a nation are established and an emperor ascends the throne, there will be a merging of mystical fortune and special powers akin to the forces of all living beings. These energies converge upon the throne, forming the Dragon Fortune that can be harnessed by the emperor as a driving force.
Based on the Dragon Fortune, an emperor gains the qualification to refine fortune.
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 kingdom 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 the number one cannon fodder player in the Demon Purging War.
Even if he were to consider establishing a kingdom, he probably could only create a ghostly kingdom.
Ahem, getting off track here.
At this moment, Luo Wusheng gazed inwardly at the small seed revolving beside his golden core, his gaze continuously flickering.
He was certain that he couldn’t spontaneously generate Dragon Fortune himself.
After all, he wasn’t the Emperor’s Charioteer.
However, right now, there was someone around him with a similar status to an emperor…
The Empress of the Immortal Nation, she was the only one.
Even the former leader of the demon clan, Yao Ji, the little fox demon empress, couldn’t gather Dragon Fortune in her current condition.
“But, if it’s the Empress’s Dragon Fortune, then 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 “Red Dust Dreaming Art” on him.
(Did the connection established by the Dream Technique manage to link to the Empress’s imperial identity? Could it even allow me to absorb a bit of her Dragon Fortune from her imperial body?)
Luo Wusheng’s gaze narrowed slightly.
Why did Miss Kirin, who was the Empress’s mortal form, use the Red Dust Dreaming Art 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 form?
Then, why did he even think that Miss Kirin could be the Empress’s mortal form?
(…Yue Xuanji.)
The answer came to him in an instant.
He remembered the white-haired, legally loli-like girl who occasionally exhibited a mischievous and humorous nature. Luo Wusheng fell into contemplation.
He hadn’t forgotten her identity.
The Tower Master of the Tower of Heavenly Mechanics, Yue Xuanji, was undoubtedly not as simple as she appeared on the surface. She was one of the few in this world who might be most proficient in the way of celestial mechanics.
She was qualified to be a manipulator of the world’s turmoil… No, perhaps she was already one of the players outside the game.
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 suppression on the demon empress, 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 demon empress from suppression, obtaining the human race’s fortune from the seal, encountering Miss Kirin, all laid the groundwork for her to enter his dreams at night.
The end result was the small fortune seed revolving beside his golden core.
(But what’s the use of this thing?)
It seemed to provide him with some degree of fortune enhancement, but this enhancement was only slightly better than the effect of the item that he had used when making black silk for his junior sister…
If this thing could substantially improve his fortune, he wouldn’t have been awakened by a nightmare.
“So, divier thoughts are even more inscrutable than one another, and it’s useless even if they have an appearance like that.”
Unable to comprehend, 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 being schemed against, he cared even less.
Thinking about the golden body Buddha rat that Yue Xuanji showed him last night and considering the bald coachman whose whereabouts had always been mysterious, he had practically confirmed that the Buddhist bald donkey was also scheming in secret.
Compared to falling into the schemes of the Buddhist bald donkey for no reason, he would rather hold onto his pawn, the white-haired little loli.
In a certain sense, he had also attached himself to her thigh… Having a Tribulation Crossing-stage cultivator who could calculate the mechanisms of heaven as his backing 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 auspicious fortune Yue Xuanji calculated for him last night, Luo Wusheng pondered.
What would happen at the “Wandering Immortal Inn” in four days?
(Regardless of the circumstances, since I want to seize good fortune, I need 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.
As for the other ominous fortune, it would be up to luck and the little fox demon empress.
With his thoughts sorted out, Luo Wusheng finally got up and welcomed a new day.
(Oh right, 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?”
Luo Wusheng had a friendly smile on his face, but the veins on his forehead twitched.
“How can you put it like that? Everything I said was the absolute truth, my dear Little Yuli~”
Luo Wusheng’s tone was exaggerated, but he placed a black piece on the board, connecting it with four other black pieces to form a line.
The young girl clenched her fist even tighter, then slowly loosened her grip.
A piece of white stone that had already 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 demon empress really was. That’s why she had allowed this annoying Demon Sect’s Holy Saint into her room when he said that if she played a game of chess with him, he would tell her whether he won or lost. But in the end, all she got was a “Hmm, it’s me.”
You don’t just make up lies like that!
Although this guy in front of her was undoubtedly talented, possessing a Golden Core cultivation that could even obliterate Nascent Soul cultivators, 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.
And now, he was bringing up that title again, the one he mentioned on the boat…
As she thought more about it, the angrier Little Yuli became. She sneered, “Hehe, why don’t you tell me you married the Empress of the Immortal Nation last night?”
Did he really think she was so easily deceived?
However, as her words fell, she noticed a strange expression in the Demon Sect’s Holy Saint’s 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 messages?”
