Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang rubbed the side of his eye, but he did not feel the twitching.

Deep inside, he was surprised that Zhang Mengyao would pick up his habit that

he did not know himself, "You really know me well to know something I don't

know about myself." He then shook his head and told her what was in his mind

about the trial, whether he should take the trial rst or enter the dimensional

tower rst.

"While I don't know much about the dimensional tower, the System will not

give us the impossible diculty on the rst oor, right? I think it will be safe

for us, at least, on the rst ve oors. I think you should take the trial rst and

enter the dimensional tower as an Ancient Rank instead," Zhang Mengyao

thought about it for a moment before saying what was in her mind. With their

current strength, they should be able to survive within the dimensional tower,

especially with the additional force from Lukan.

Tang Shaoyang thought about it for a moment. Zhang Mengyao was right; the

Tang Empire should be ne even without him in the rst ve oors, "Alright,

then I will leave the Empire in your hand until I nish the trial."

"I thought you were thinking about the girl called Yeon Hee," Zhang Mengyao

eyed him suspiciously. "What do you want to do with her?"

"Ah!?" Tang Shaoyang suddenly remembered the girl from the Haven. "She has

a potential compared to her friends, so I was thinking of recruiting her into our

empire while giving the Haven a punishment. Where is she now?"

"If you want to recruit her, then why don't you recruit the whole Haven

instead? That way, we can easily gain their loyalty instead of using force,"

Zhang Mengyao shook her head. "I know, one of her friends said something he

should never have said, but you just killed that guy."

"Dying in his friend's hand is more tragic and painful than me killing him.

That's what he deserved," Tang Shaoyang shrugged nonchalantly. "Has she

signed the slave contract? We need to ensure that girls do not do something

desperate."

"Yeon Hee is with Lu An," Zhang Mengyao shook her head, "If you recognize

her potential, then you should not force her to sign the slave contract. We want

her loyalty, and we have hurt her enough by separating her from her friends

and boyfriend. Just let Lu An does the work instead."

"If you say so," Tang Shaoyang nodded and stood up from the chair. "Then I

will leave right now. The sooner I take the trial, the sooner I return." He opened

the status window and proceeded with the trial.

[Do you want to take the Trial of Ancient? (Yes) (No)]

"Mnn," Zhang Mengyao nodded, "I will tell the other girls where you go later.

Don't be too reckless and be safe; we are waiting for your return, Your

Majesty."

Tang Shaoyang nodded and tapped yes. The portal appeared before him, and

the trial portal for the Ancient Rank was more gentle as it did not suck the

furniture inside his oce. He turned around and approached her for the last

time. He kissed her on the lips passionately and parted twenty seconds later.

After that, Tang Shaoyang entered the portal without looking back.
