Translator: Lordbluefire

The black-robed man didn’t speak.

He was none other than the Xia Emperor’s teacher. He had used a secret technique to relocate the Xia Emperor’s soul and seize the body of the Xia Crown Prince. action

He was also one of the conquerors of the Black-White Game.

“Teacher!”

Lu Feng’s tone turned heavy.

“Let’s leave!”

The black-robed man turned and left.

“Ah?”

Lu Feng was stunned. His teacher wanted to spare Sun Mo, but why?

Given his teacher’s strength, he could completely suppress them.

“Do you think Su Taiqing came here just to obtain Li Ziqi’s painting? No, he is warning me not to act against Sun Mo and Li Ziqi.”

The black-robed man explained.

Su Taiqing didn’t care about the Xia Emperor or the Xia Empire, but he cared about the two of them. This was especially so for Sun Mo. “Su Taiqing treats Sun Mo as his successor.”

“Why?”

Lu Feng started. After that, jealousy appeared on his face.

Saint Gate’s Sect Lord. This was the peak of the great teacher world, who didn’t want this position?

“It’s best not to antagonize Sun Mo in the meantime!”

The black-robed man warned.

He had been in the shadows making arrangements in the Great Xia for a decade. So, it was fine even if the Xia Emperor died. He could just erect another Xia Emperor.

“Roger!”

Lu Feng silently sighed. It seemed like his teacher still had feelings for Sun Mo.

Then Lu Feng thought about it carefully. If his own child was trash, he also wouldn’t give a damn about him. But if his child was the number one in the world, it was tough even if he didn’t want to be happy.

This was because Sun Mo was his teacher’s seed!

…

Sun Mo was extremely astonished. Even after he had entered the region of Great Tang and Chang`an could be seen in the distance, the mastermind hadn’t approached him yet.

Why did the other party give up?

It couldn’t be because he was handsome and the other party felt reluctant to kill him, right?

“It seems like something I don’t know must have happened!”

Sun Mo went through the possible reasons in his mind and no longer cared about it. He started to plan for his life in the next two years.

As for the school, they had to continuously recruit good teachers and do their best to have a great student supply, with students of better aptitudes. After that, they had to try and enter the ‘A’-grade.

As for himself as an individual, he had to become a 6-stars great teacher. Also, his current cultivation base was somewhat low and didn’t match up to his rank.

Ding!

“Congratulations on becoming a 5-stars great teacher. Reward: 2x mysterious treasure chest!”

Ding!

“Congratulations. Li Ziqi obtained first place in the Five Empires War Discussion and gained glory for you. Reward: 3x mysterious treasure chests.”

Ding!

“Congratulations on completing an achievement. You are now famous through the Nine Provinces and everyone in the world knows your name. Reward: 2x mysterious treasure chests!”

The long-absent system’s congratulation finally rang out, thrice.

Sun Mo had planned to open some chests as he anticipated that it would be a boring journey. But Li Yingqi, who received the news from the diplomatic group, actually showed up personally 20 miles away from the city to welcome them.

“Beloved Teacher Sun, you have truly broadened my horizons!”

Li Yingqi didn’t wait for Sun Mo to bow and already pulled on Sun Mo’s arm as he laughed loudly. “Sigh, This Emperor is truly regretful to be unable to watch the war discussion personally!”

“Your Majesty, you are praising me too much!”

Sun Mo was humble.

“Do you want to become This Emperor’s State Teacher*?”

Li Yingqi invited.

State teachers of China was a title given by the emperors to some individuals of high learning. In movies of the modern era, state teachers were always depicted as baddies.

However, state teachers of the Nine Provinces were different. This meant that the person was the teacher of the entire empire. If one wanted to become a state teacher, their star-ranks not only had to be extremely high, but they also had to have great contributions to the empire.

Han Cangshui really wanted to obtain the title ‘State Teacher’ but sadly, he wasn’t able to get his wish because he had no contributions.

“Royal Brother, how can you ask in such a manner?”

Li Xiu rolled her eyes at Li Yingqi. (You should directly send out a royal commandment to announce it.)

“Beloved Subject Sun has the demeanor of a Saint, how would I dare to make assumptions on his behalf? I naturally have to consider his opinion!”

Li Yingqi explained. The more he looked at Sun Mo, the fonder he felt.

Naturally, what made Li Yingqi the happiest was that Sun Mo had exposed the crafty plot of his formidable enemy, the Xia Emperor and even killed him.

Both the Great Tang and Great Xia were two super empires and had competed with each other in many things. However, Li Yingqi was always the loser, and the commoners publicly felt that he was inferior to the Xia Emperor. Now that the Xia Emperor was finished, Li Yingqi was so happy upon receiving the news that he had almost granted amnesty to all the prisoners.

After that, Sun Mo stayed in the royal palace. His students followed him as well, benefitting from his glory.

…

“Royal Sister, how do you think This Emperor should reward Sun Mo?”

Li Yingqi felt quite a headache.

Mainly it was because the Qi Emperor had directly given Sun Mo a city. If his rewards were too lowly, wouldn’t that make it seem that he was stingy?

But Li Yingqi was truly reluctant to give up a city.

“Royal Brother, do you think Sun Mo will care for a city? Do you think he will care for titles like ‘state teacher’, ‘imperial preceptor’, or ‘grand tutor’?”

Li Xiu sighed. Her elder brother had a weakness and that was that he wasn’t magnanimous enough.

“Isn’t that something all great teachers want in their dreams?”

Li Yingqi frowned.

“Sun Mo is currently 25 years old. Given his talent, he can definitely be a secondary saint. If he puts in more effort, it’s also possible for him to become a saint. Do you feel that he cannot become the Saint Gate’s Sect Lord?”

Li Xiu counter-asked.

Li Yingqi sank into silence.

“Many major characters want to get close to Sun Mo, but they are still stuck in the queue.”

Li Xiu mentally mused. (If it wasn’t for Li Ziqi, you probably wouldn’t even have the chance to speak with Sun Mo. Look at the Qi Emperor, he could place the prestige of an emperor down and was willing to simp for Sun Mo and go to the extent of wanting to marry his daughter to him for the sake of forging a closer relationship.)

“Alright, I’ll give him a city!”

Li Yingqi decided.

“You should give him five!”

Li Xiu responded in a heavy tone.

“What?” Li Yingqi jumped up. “Have you gone crazy? Although our Great Tang Empire is strong, we don’t have any excess land!”

“The Qi Emperor wants to marry Jiang Yuzhen to Sun Mo. If they get together, their child will definitely become the next Qi Emperor!”

Li Xiu divulged.

“If that’s the case, we shouldn’t be giving Sun Mo so many things!”

Li Yingqi rejected.

Li Xiu had originally wanted to discuss with Li Yingqi about Li Ziqi’s probability of ascending the throne. However, after seeing Li Yingqi’s attitude, she suddenly had no more mood.

What was called a pig-like teammate?

This was it!

(A trump card is beside your hand yet you don’t want to grab it. No wonder the Great Tang has declined in your hands.)

“Royal brother, I’ll take my leave!”

Li Xiu exited the palace and went to look for Sun Mo directly. She also sent a message to Zheng Qingfang. He told him to rush to Chang`an with all haste he could muster.

…

Sun Mo meditated for two hours and practiced some of his martial techniques. After that, he saw that the time to have breakfast was approaching, hence he decided to call Lu Zhiruo over as he started to open his treasure chests!

“Open three first!”

Very soon, three skill books appeared before Sun Mo, floating in front of his eyes.

Ding!

“Congratulations on obtaining the [Upgraded version: Myriad Equipment Manual]. This book has records of some weaponsmithing techniques that have been lost in time or are extremely rare.”

Ding!

“Congratulations on obtaining the [Beginner’s Encyclopedia of Weaponsmithing]. Proficiency-level: Elementary!”

Ding!

“Congratulations on obtaining the [Magical Gu-Bugs Encyclopedia: 100 types].

Hu~

Sun Mo whistled and happily rubbed Lu Zhiruo’s head. As expected of his lucky mascot, her aura of luck was extremely strong.

These three skill books were extremely practical. This was especially so for the weaponsmithing one. After Sun Mo learned it, he would be able to give lectures on this subject.

“Continue!”

Sun Mo urged. He wanted to open as many as he could before the luck ran out.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

A crisp sound rang out continuously.

“Congratulations on obtaining the fourth part of the Undying Mystic Art!”

“Congratulations, you obtained a great teacher halo: Book in Hand!”

“Congratulations on obtaining a saint-tier prescription: Hundred Flowers Thousand Bones!”

“Congratulations on obtaining the sixth part of the Undying Mystic Art!”

Sun Mo’s spirit stirred as his eyes grew bright. All of these were good stuff.

“I feel myself growing stronger again!”

Sun Mo immediately learned the skill book containing the great teacher halo.

This halo was a punishment-type halo. After using it, you would cause students to generate the impulse of wanting to improve.

It wasn’t that some students didn’t want to learn. Rather, they were too lazy and had no motivation. Hence, this Book in Hand was the best treatment method.

The Undying Mystic Art was a peak-grade saint-tier cultivation art that was split into nine parts. Today, he finally obtained all the parts.

This cultivation art had a total of 18 levels and upon reaching perfected mastery, one could live forever and even become an immortal.

Many people couldn’t achieve this cultivation realm, but it was fine. As long as trained in the Undying Mystic Art, there would be an effect of revival via fetus breath.

It meant that after one was heavily injured, they could enter a hibernation state of fetal breathing. The length depended on the extent of the injury and one’s constitution. The hibernation time might be long or short, a few days or even several years. But regardless, once they were awakened, their injuries would be fully healed.

“This cultivation art is good!”

Sun Mo decided to impart this to his students tonight. It could be considered an additional life-saving method. As for himself?

He wouldn’t train in any cultivation arts his entire life. He could simply spam time emblems, wasn’t that good?!

For this trip to Western Jing, Sun Mo had accumulated over a million favorable impression points. He didn’t know what to buy.

Finally, Sun Mo experienced what it felt like to be a wealthy tycoon.

Beautiful!

“You can go rest!”

Sun Mo instructed Lu Zhiruo. After that, he admired the prescription he had just obtained and after learning of its effect, he was completely shocked.

Extracting the essence of a hundred flowers and the bone marrow of a thousand ferocious beasts. One had to use Trisaint Water and Trisaint Fire and refine them for a total of 72 days before they could obtain a Hundred Flowers Thousand Bones Pill.

After consuming this pill, one’s bone aptitude would be greatly enhanced.

“Isn’t this the savior of trash?”

Sun Mo felt that there was hope for Li Ziqi now. But after seeing the concoction process, he felt a headache. Even the summary was so complicated, so the difficulty of the concocting process would surely be even greater.

In any case, he wouldn’t be able to do it.

“Luckily, I’m smart enough to have formed a good relationship with Mei Yazhi.

Since there was a friend to ask for help, why would he not do so?

(Speaking of which, I can be considered successful in my career now. Should I start considering matters of my own happiness? I should pay a visit to the ‘flower streets’ of Chang`an!)

Sun Mo was preparing to head to the training division. He heard that the women there were all families of officials who had committed crimes and their standards were very high.

“Little Silver!”

Sun Mo sat on the eight-gate cloud and left the area.

…

In the wee hours of the morning, Sun Mo returned to the palace. When he pushed the door to his residence open, he saw Li Xiu sitting before a table and reading a book.

“Mn?”

Sun Mo retreated and glanced at the surroundings. “Did I enter the wrong place?”

“You didn’t!”

Li Xiu placed the book down and rapidly swept her gaze over to Sun Mo. (Did he go out to enjoy himself?) She subconsciously sniffed the air and discovered that other than a faint alcoholic smell, there was no smell of rouge.

Sun Mo didn’t enter. After all, the eldest princess was someone with a husband. If they stayed in a room together during the night, it would surely be detrimental to her reputation.

“Come in first!”

Li Xiu saw Sun Mo not moving. Hence, she pulled him into the house and closed the door.

After a period of chatting, Sun Mo’s expression turned heavy.

Li Xiu was planning a coup d’état.

“I’m afraid of being executed!”

Sun Mo activated Divine Sight to observe Li Xiu. After confirming that she wasn’t probing him, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“That won’t happen. I’m 70% confident!”

Li Xiu consoled him.

Sun Mo fell silent.

“To Ziqi, this is an absolute opportunity!”

Li Xiu also told Sun Mo about how Li Yingqi was unwilling to reward him heavily.

“Eldest Princess, don’t treat me like a fool. You are the one who wants to seize control, right?’

Sun Mo’s gaze turned sharp.

Li Ziqi was so young. Even if she ascended successfully, she wouldn’t be able to convince everyone. Besides, she wouldn’t be a match for those scheming old subjects.

At that time, a person she could trust would definitely be needed to subdue the other high officials. For this position, the only candidate was Li Xiu.

Li Xiu originally wanted to deny it but after seeing Sun Mo’s clear gaze, she gave up.

“That’s right!” Li Xiu bluntly spoke, “I was moved by the words you spoke during that day at the Victory Public Square. In the past, I only wanted to assist my royal brother to help him build a great empire. However, he disappoints me too much.”

Sun Mo could hear Li Xiu’s honesty and gradually understood that she was a strong career woman who was extremely ambitious. Her dream was to build a glorious Tang Empire.

She still thought of her relationship with the Emperor, hence, she wanted Li Ziqi to take the throne. If not, she would have openly rebelled.

“Sun Mo, only I can help you actualize those dreams of yours!”

Li Xiu persuaded.

(I was just cooking chicken soup for everyone to drink. Why did you have to believe that?)

Sun Mo felt a headache. This was rebellion and not treating someone for a meal. The guilty party would have to be beheaded.

“My dreams have always been here, you are the one who ignited them!”

As Li Xiu spoke, she suddenly stretched out her hand and pressed down on Sun Mo’s chest. “You are the one that allowed me to feel motivated in life.”

Sun Mo smiled awkwardly.

To people like Li Xiu who didn’t lack money and authority, life was a simple game. However, she simply had to have an ambitious heart and was unwilling to take the easy way out. Since that was the case, she could only increase the difficulty of the game herself.

“Do you want to hear the voice of my dreams?”

Li Xiu lifted Sun Mo’s hand and placed it on her chest.

“Eh!”

Sun Mo jumped in fright and hurriedly tried to struggle free, but he didn’t succeed.

“Sun Mo, why weren’t you born 20 years earlier?”

Li Xiu sighed and slowly stroked Sun Mo’s face.

Sun Mo was somewhat at a loss of what to do.

The eldest princess’s lips leaned closer and closer, stopping an inch away from Sun Mo. The meaning was clear. As long as Sun Mo wanted, he would be able to sleep with her.

Honestly speaking, Li Xiu was pretty good-looking and had an outstanding aura. Her figure was voluptuous and the most important thing was that she had a high status, a princess that wielded immense authority and power…

Speaking of which, those princesses in the Great Tang of his world also loved to fool around. The Taiping Princess and Gaoyang Princess were two well-known sl*ts!

Pak!

Sun Mo pushed Li Xiu away.

“Don’t act like this, you are Ziqi’s aunt!” Sun Mo inhaled deeply. “I’ll help you!”

Li Xiu smiled and bowed slightly. “Many thanks, Imperial Preceptor Sun!”

This was a good man with principles. He would only reek of alcohol and not the smell of lady perfume. This indicated that he didn’t visit brothels to fool around. A man like this was extremely rare in the Nine Provinces.

What a pity!

[1]This position is equal to an imperial preceptor.
