Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Chapter 40: King, how about we talk somewhere else?
So hot!

As soon as the idea emerged in Lu Ming's mind, the goddess picture book popped up the next moment.

[Name: Dongfang Liyue]

[Identity: Owner of Baihua Tower]

[Realm: Pseudo-First Rank (above Second Rank)]

Status: She cultivates a unique charm skill and needs a suitable cauldron to help her reach a higher realm. In her opinion, you are the descendant of an immortal, and no one is more suitable to be her cauldron. For this reason, she has traveled to Jiangnan specifically to search for an antidote for you. However, the mastermind behind Baihua Tower has already made up his mind to eliminate you, and she wants to see if you are dead.

Seeing Dongfang Liyue's personal information, Lu Ming's mouth curled up slightly, and then he used the "Telepathic Resonance Technique" on Dongfang Liyue to feel her emotions at the moment.

【Shock, confusion, puzzlement, lust.】

Feeling that Dongfang Liyue had some romantic thoughts about him, Lu Ming immediately thought of the Confused Heart Pill.

Baihua Tower poisoned him, and he gave their owner a pill. It's just a matter of reciprocity, so it's not too much.

However, Dongfang Liyue must be a smart person to be able to become the owner of Baihua Tower. It is probably not an easy task to feed her pills.

Dongfang Liyue came back to her senses at this moment. She quickly adjusted her expression and said with a stiff smile, "Prince Xiaoyao is right. The Su family is so wealthy and powerful. How could they possibly covet Prince Xiaoyao's property? I was too petty and judged him."

As soon as Dongfang Liyue finished speaking, she used her charm on Lu Ming. Lu Ming immediately felt his body become restless, but he was now a cultivator with strong mental power, and he instantly realized that Dongfang Liyue was using her charm on him.

He immediately circulated his spiritual energy, calmed his mind, and continued, "Just now, Dongfang Louzhu said that he wanted to sign a contract with me. Now that I am here, can Dongfang Louzhu sign the contract with Xiaoyao Palace?"

Dongfang Liyue was slightly stunned. She had clearly used her charm on Lu Ming, so why didn't it work?

Not many people in the capital can resist her charm. Even their masters dare not face her. How can an ordinary person like King Xiaoyao ignore her charm?

There's something wrong with Lu Ming!
Dongfang Liyue came back to her senses and quickly said, "Of course."

Lu Ming then said to his servants, "Come here, prepare the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone to draft the contract."

After he finished speaking, Lu Ming walked directly towards the main seat in the meeting hall. He then continued, "Master Dongfang, please take a seat."

Dongfang Liyue glanced at Wu Qionggui beside her and signaled her with her eyes to wait and see what happened.

Then she went to sit on a chair at the side of the hall, turned her head to look at Lu Ming, and said with a smile, "There are rumors outside that you, the king, are ill in bed and your health is failing. Now it seems that someone is maliciously spreading rumors."

Lu Ming said, "The rumors outside are not wrong. I was indeed dying a few days ago, but the Queen sent me a pill of eternal life, which brought me back to life."

Hearing Lu Ming's words, Dongfang Liyue laughed in her heart.

Bullshit! Although the immortality pill can prolong a person's life, it is absolutely impossible to make a dying person full of energy.

There's a secret in Xiaoyao Palace! And it's a big secret!
She must find a way to find out why Lu Ming recovered!

At this time, the servants had already come to the meeting hall with pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and Su Wanyun took the initiative to pick up the pen to draft the contract.

Dongfang Liyue then probed, "The Xiaoyao Palace has been under sudden martial law recently. Could it be that another assassin is trying to kill the king?"

Lu Ming said, "That's not the case. A few days ago, the Xiaoyao Palace's cloth business was vandalized, resulting in the Xiaoyao Palace losing its income. Now that the Xiaoyao Palace has finally developed a perfume, I'm worried that it will be targeted by thieves again, so I've increased the security of the palace."

Hearing Lu Ming's words, Dongfang Liyue had no doubts. Once the perfume was released, it would undoubtedly attract the attention of many aristocratic families. Not to mention the aristocratic families, even she was already thinking about how to get the perfume production method from Lu Ming.

Dongfang Liyue smiled and said, "I see. This item is precious. The Xiaoyao Palace should be more cautious."

Although it sounds like there is nothing wrong with what Xiaoyao Palace did, and Xiaoyao Palace has obtained a new way to make money, it should indeed be on guard against someone stealing the production method, but Dongfang Liyue still feels something is wrong.

Judging from Lu Ming's current mental state, he doesn't look like someone who has just recovered from a serious illness.

Moreover, Lu Ming's temperament is completely different from before.

She had met Lu Ming more than once in the past. Before he encountered the assassination attempt, Lu Ming often went to Baihua Tower to listen to music. Although he was handsome and elegant, he was actually a very mean person.

She had secretly observed Lu Ming. Lu Ming was a very lustful man. Whenever a girl accompanied Lu Ming, Lu Ming's hands could not help but touch her randomly.

The Lu Ming she had met before and the Lu Ming now were completely different people.

The Lu Ming in front of her not only ignored her charm, but his eyes were also very firm and clear, and his whole body exuded the aura of an immortal.

This doesn't look like the playboy he used to be.

Of course, the change in temperament is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Lu Ming's physical condition has changed so much that it is difficult to explain.

Lu Ming had been lying in bed for more than two months and had become extremely emaciated.

Even if Lu Ming found a way to detoxify the Death Grass and the Netherworld Flower, it would still take a long time for his body to develop into its current state.

How long has it been since Lu Ming recovered?

Not only can he get out of bed and walk, but he can also speak clearly.

At this time, another guess appeared in Dongfang Liyue's mind.

Could this Lu Ming in front of me be someone in disguise?

Su Wanyun found some people from the martial arts world, used disguise techniques, and pretended to be King Xiaoyao to sign a contract with her. The real King Xiaoyao might have died?

After thinking of this possibility, Dongfang Liyue continued to say to Lu Ming, "Your Majesty, you have just recovered from a serious illness and need a lot of money to nourish your body. The 500 bottles of perfume just now were just a small business. The palace doesn't make much money. That little money is not enough to buy tonics for your majesty."

"How about we cooperate more deeply? What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Hearing Dongfang Liyue's words, Lu Ming said, "Oh? Deep cooperation? What does deep cooperation mean?"

Dongfang Liyue glanced at Su Wanyun who was drawing up the contract, then smiled and used her charm on Lu Ming again. This time, her charm power reached 40%. She didn't believe that she still couldn't charm Lu Ming.

Previously, she had only used 10% of her charm on Lu Ming. If it were some masters, it was indeed possible that they would not be affected by her 100% charm.

However, not every man can withstand the charm of a 40% power. Even if the Lu Ming in front of him is a man in the underworld pretending to be him, he may not be able to withstand it.

At this moment, Lu Ming clearly felt the blood surging, and he immediately realized that Dongfang Liyue was using her charm on him again.

Dongfang Liyue then said in a soft and alluring voice, "Your Majesty, how about we go somewhere else and talk alone?"
