Xu Ze watched this scene, his lips twitching slightly.

He transmitted his voice to Mu Yan:

"No, what are you doing?"

Mu Yan smiled in response and also transmitted her voice:

"I'm helping you establish your authority, how about that, are you touched?"

Xu Ze: "..."

What a load of rubbish!

Now he's completely famous.

He never intended to become some kind of 'emperor emeritus'; he was simply here to clear this third level.

But just at that moment, the system suddenly popped up a notification.

[You have viewed the 'Star Chart' and glimpsed a sliver of truth from the world of the Heavenly Book, achieving the accomplishment: Past Life and Present Life.]

[With your Nascent Soul cultivation, you defeated the Sword Slave who possessed sword intent; with your Void Refinement cultivation, you defeated the Tribulation Crossing Valley Master of Fire Cloud Valley, achieving the epic feat: Crossing levels is as easy as drinking water.]

[You have become the ruler of the Central Immortal Continent, a king who looks down upon all living beings, achieving the core achievement: Reigning Supreme.]

Current dungeon progress: 100%.

[Congratulations! You have reached the final stage of clearing the dungeon "Central Immortal Continent" and have received your rewards!]

[Reward: 5000 points, 1 chance to draw a Primordial Spiritual Treasure.]

[Perfect completion achieved! After exploring the 'Empress Dowager's Secret Garden,' you will automatically proceed to the next dungeon!]

"Secret Garden?"

Xu Ze felt a little dizzy.

Is this garden proper?

……

in the crowd.

Hu Zhilan stood there blankly.

She stared blankly at the people kneeling on the ground and at the young man in the blue robe surrounded by the crowd.

The retired emperor?

That country bumpkin became the retired emperor of the Great Xuan Dynasty?

The fourth prince, whom she admired most and considered the most perfect man in the world, suddenly became a prisoner.

And the man she despised the most became the ruler of this world?

Hu Zhilan felt that she must not have woken up yet.

Otherwise, he or she has gone mad.

She recalled the things she had said and done to Xu Ze, and the mocking look on his face.

For no apparent reason, the girl's vision went black.

"Boom."

She fell straight to the ground and fainted.

The maidservant beside her screamed in fright, her face turning pale:

"Miss! Miss, are you alright?!"

But nobody paid them any attention.

Everyone is desperately trying to prove their loyalty to Xu Ze, so who has time to care about a young lady from the Hu family?

Qin Zhanming stepped forward and bowed deeply.

"Your Majesty, I was blind before. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me."

Xu Ze looked at him and said calmly:

"You're too kind, Prime Minister. I've been a bother to the Qin residence these past few days and haven't had a chance to thank you yet."

Qin Zhanming felt relieved and quickly said:

"No, no, it's an honor for the Qin family that the Emperor Emeritus is staying at the Qin residence!"

Looking at the cunning old fox in front of him.

Xu Ze was, after all, the head of a sect in Beiju Luzhou, and now he held an even more supreme status. He cleared his throat and said:

"I am an old friend of the Prime Minister's daughter. I urge the Prime Minister to reconsider the marriage proposal for her, so as not to force her into a difficult situation."

Qin Yi was the first person I met in this instance.

They also settled me in the Qin family, helped me understand the various forces in the Central Immortal Continent, and even helped me hide my identity.

It could be said that Xu Ze owed her a favor.

Having Ding Wan and Bai Yuxi participate in the martial arts competition and win first place for the Qin family has already repaid this favor.

However, Xu Ze wouldn't mind giving away one more.

Hearing that Qin Yi had been forced into marriage with the Fourth Prince, and now that Mu Jun had become a cripple, this ridiculous marriage was naturally to be annulled.

"That's natural, that's natural!"

Qin Zhanming's old face was full of smiles, and he dared not utter a single word of dissent.

Seeing this, the others rushed forward even more enthusiastically.

"Your Majesty, I possess a ten-thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in my household, which I wish to offer to you!"

"Your Majesty, I have a daughter who is sixteen years old and beautiful. She wishes to enter the palace to serve Your Majesty!"

"I possess a post-natal spiritual treasure here..."

Xu Ze felt a headache coming on as he listened to these words.

These people can change their tune faster than turning the pages of a book.

It's exactly the same as it was in Beiju Luzhou.

When I went to the Ding family to break off the engagement, they all looked down on me.

After Yama's bloodbath swept across the heavens, everyone rushed to offer him gifts.

If the cultivation world were full of beings like this, it would be truly boring.

Ding Wan stood aside, looking at those fawning faces, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

"This is not enough to look down on cultivators from the other four continents."

She came from Beiju Luzhou, and along the way she saw that all the cultivators from Zhongtu Xianzhou were all all talk and no action.

They're not even as good as the cultivators in their hometown.

Bai Yuxi then leaned close to Xu Ze's ear and whispered:

"Master, these people are so annoying... Let's go."

She was terrified that these people would choose some kind of three thousand concubines for Xu Ze.

Although love is not a constraint, what if I can't even get a number?

Xu Ze patted her hand to reassure her.

Even if I have plenty of energy, I wouldn't accept anyone who comes my way.

Mu Yan watched this scene with a slight smile on her lips.

"Let's go."

Her voice wasn't loud, but it silenced everyone.

Looking at Ding Wan and Bai Yuxi's bewildered expressions, Mu Yan revealed a captivating smile:

"It's been quite a while since I've seen you guys."

"I will take you to my 'back garden' for a while."

Backyard?

Xu Ze remembered the system notification he had just received.

So this is the 'secret garden'...

But why is this considered the final condition for passing the level by the system? What exactly is inside?

Or rather, what will happen after I get there...?

Chapter 160 Mu Yan's Test

Mu Yan's words not only made Xu Ze start to speculate, but also reached the ears of all the cultivators in the Central Earth Immortal Continent present.

The leaders of these powerful families certainly knew the value of this 'invitation'.

The Empress Dowager's back garden was a forbidden area.

Not to mention outsiders, even princes and princesses cannot enter without being summoned.

Now, is the Empress Dowager going to take these people with her?

This treatment...

"It seems that 'Emperor Emeritus' is not just a title; this man is probably truly the Empress Dowager's man..."

Immediately, everyone looked at Xu Ze with even greater awe.

"I'm tired, let's go."

Mu Yan ignored the rest.

The swordsman dressed in black appeared and began to deal with the aftermath of today's events with Prime Minister Qin Zhanming.

Xu Ze and the other two were swept up by her phoenix robe, and in the blink of an eye, the scene in front of them had changed.
