I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 85: Begin to experience the joy of power!

After finishing the meal, Li Chen said that he had something else to do and they agreed to meet at a certain time tomorrow, and then he prepared to leave.

When the maid came, Wu Nanzhi stood up and paid the bill.

"Shouldn't I be the one to treat you?" Li Chen thought she ordered so much food in order to 'drain' herself.

"How can I let you treat me? After all, you helped me yesterday. It's not too much for me to treat you to a meal." Wu Nanzhi wanted to embarrass Li Chen, but one thing is one thing.

"Would you really not consider marrying me?"

"You, what are you thinking about?"

Wu Nanzhi really couldn't keep up with Li Chen's train of thought.

You guy, you didn’t even want to climb the tree to help me get my clothes yesterday, and you still have the nerve to ask me to marry you!
But then again, even if you help me get my clothes, you don't have to give yourself to me.

After leaving the restaurant, the two said goodbye at the door.

Wu Nanzhi saw Li Chen's back as he left and thought: Is this guy really just coming to have dinner with me? Is there no follow-up activity?

If Li Chen knew what she was thinking, he would definitely say: I want to take you to the inn, but you don’t want to go.

Since meeting Li Chen, Wu Nanzhi's mood has improved a lot.

It's not dark yet, so she plans to go to her own shop to see if Wu Qi is working hard.

The Wu family's shop is located in Yunyin Street, the most prosperous area in the southern part of the imperial capital.

This street is lined with shops and bustling with people, and is a must-pass place for practitioners.

The Wu family shop sells monster bones, blood, fur, inner elixir and so on.

Practitioners in the imperial capital can purchase these resources to increase their cultivation speed. If they want to gain special abilities, they can also buy the essence and blood of high-level monsters. Those things are very valuable and are considered the store's treasures.

Every time new products are put on the shelves, they will attract many practitioners to rush for them.

There are many martial arts schools on both sides of Yunyin Street. These schools not only attract countless practitioners to come and study, but also bring a steady stream of customers to the Wu family’s shops.

This is also the main reason why the Wu family shop chose to be located here.

Logically speaking, Wu Qi, with his status as a shop owner, could establish good relations with the strong men on this street, that is, the owners of various martial arts schools on this street.

To be qualified to open a martial arts school in the imperial capital, one must have a certain background.

You can start from this aspect and get in touch with the powerful circle in the imperial capital.

This is what Wu Qi's father told him when he came to the imperial capital.

But this kid was only interested in being a bootlicker at the time and didn't take care of this place.

As soon as Wu Nanzhi arrived near his shop, he met someone he knew.

"Nanzhi! I knew you were here!"

An elegant man came up to Wu Nanzhi with his men.

This man is a descendant of the Ma family, a large family in Huju City, and his name is Ma Gao.

Ma Gao was very excited to see Wu Nanzhi, as he was Wu Nanzhi's loyal licker.

He is also the most unruly one among all the bootlickers.

He once paid a large sum of money to bribe the maids of the Wu family and asked them to steal the underwear worn by Wu Nanzhi.

Even wearing these underwear every day is simply unbearable.

But the problem was, that was a misunderstanding. The maid he bribed was afraid that she would be discovered stealing by the Wu family, and she was also greedy for the money, so she pretended that the clothes she had worn were Wu Nanzhi's and gave them to him.

Ma Gao didn't know about it and wore it secretly for half a year.

Finally, during a competition, he was accidentally discovered by Wu Nanzhi's other followers.

The other dogs laughed at Ma Gao for wearing women's underwear.

Ma Gao was so excited at the time that he showed off that it belonged to Wu Nanzhi, hoping to make other dogs envious.

Wu Nanzhi was stunned at the time, then she calmed down and thought that she had never worn this style before.

Finally the truth came out, the maid of the Wu family was severely punished, and Ma Gao became famous in Huju City.

When Wu Nanzhi saw this person, disgust appeared in his eyes.

In her opinion, this person is a complete pervert.

Wu Nanzhi doesn't like staying in Huju City because these suitors are too outrageous.

Ma Gao was just one of them. Wu Nanzhi didn't expect to meet him here again.

Judging from his tone, he probably got the news from somewhere and actually followed it to the imperial capital.

"Sorry, you got the wrong person."

As she said that, Wu Nanzhi was about to walk into the store. The store was full of Wu's servants who would help her block the annoying Ma Gao.

But Ma Gao had finally found his goddess, so how could he give up so easily?

"Nanzhi, please listen to my explanation. I am sincere to you!"

He refused to let Wu Nanzhi leave and even ordered his men to block Wu Nanzhi.

Ma Gao knew that there were fewer competitors here now, and he had been waiting for so many years just for this opportunity.

There seemed to be something interesting going on here, and more and more people were gathering around to watch.

"I'm not interested in you, get out of here, this is the imperial capital."

Wu Nanzhi was also very angry and was about to push Ma Gao away.

But no matter how powerful Ma Gao is, he is still a powerful cultivator, and Wu Nanzhi's level of cultivation cannot shake him.

Just as he was about to grab Wu Nanzhi's shoulder, a strong hand grabbed Ma Gao.

Ma Gao was furious at that time. Who the hell would ruin his good thing?

Before Ma Gao could finish his curse, the man kicked Ma Gao and he fell to the side.

Ma Gao stood up and prepared to take action, but when he saw the man's clothes, he hesitated.

"How dare you flirt with a decent woman in broad daylight? I think you want to go to jail!"

That’s right, this person is none other than Xiao Ming.

At this moment, he was wearing the official uniform of the Ministry of Justice, and he was also a staff member of the Ministry of Justice.

Besides, Ma Gao came from another place, so how could he tell who was on the staff and who was not?

In his eyes, Xiao Ming was just a servant.

The Ma family is considered a big family in Huju City, but this is the imperial capital, and the other party is an official. No matter how stupid Ma Gao is, he dare not offend Xiao Ming directly.

Official robes can indeed calm down some second-generation young men with no background.

Ma Gao got up, patted his clothes, suppressed his anger and explained: "Sir, I know her."

Xiao Ming glanced at Wu Nanzhi, as if asking what she meant.

Wu Nanzhi shook his head, indicating that he didn't know him.

She was too lazy to explain that she knew Ma Gao. Who knows, this guy might try to climb up the ladder and get involved with her again.

Wu Nanzhi would not say nice things to Ma Gao just because he feels sorry for him. This guy is just shameless.

I have clearly rejected him so many times, but he just won't change.

"Did you hear that? Get out of here now!" Xiao Ming said angrily.

He even placed his own sword in front of him.

Ma Gao had nothing to say. He looked at Wu Nanzhi reluctantly and could only grit his teeth and leave.

Even though he was humiliated like this, he still did not hate Wu Nanzhi. Instead, he felt that Xiao Ming was a hindrance. This is the way a bootlicker thinks.

Xiao Ming understood him best, after all, they were in the same industry.

Xiao Ming enjoyed seeing Ma Gao's frustrated look, who didn't dare to show his anger and could only leave.

If it were before, without this outfit, this guy would have rushed up and started fighting.

Now, do you dare to fight me? I am from the Ministry of Justice!
Consider the consequences before you act.

Since coming to the Ministry of Justice, he has indeed begun to experience the joy of power.

This outfit is actually useless in the core area of ​​the imperial capital where the powerful are.

But in a place like this, it's very scary.

He finally understood what his master had told him, and that his master had not lied to him.
