Forget it, better not to provoke this Le Youran. Whether or not they saw that Le Xiaoyao wasn't really that important!
And just at this mont...
"What are you all doing? Le Youran, why are you blocking others?" A puzzled voice rang out.
"I'm doing this for you, to prevent others from disturbing you!" Le Youran said casually. "Eh, you're done being in a daze!"
Only then did Le Youran realize the speaker was Xiaoyao. Obviously, Xiaoyao seed to have completed his daze at this crucial mont and was beginning to regain awareness.
"Thank you!" Xiaoyao smiled. Although he didn't know the situation, he knew Le Youran had been protecting him.
The end was the crucial mont. If soone had disturbed him just now, he believed he might never find this state again, aning he might only get this far.
Although even without complete digestion, he had still benefited greatly, being able to digest more was always better. Moreover, the final comprehension, ti and importance weren't proportional. The last few minutes might be more important than everything before combined.
...
...
All these martial artists would surely understand this, because when they broke through realms, what they needed was just that final little bit.
"No need to thank . I don't know why I helped you either. By the way, what were you just doing?" Le Youran looked at Xiaoyao puzzledly.
"..."
After hearing Le Youran's words, everyone once again felt speechless. She truly knew nothing, inexplicably guarding Xiaoyao and even fighting with others.
"I was just... contemplating... what you called being in a daze," Xiaoyao's answer made a group of people fall over.
These two people weren't just perfectly matched in nas, even their speech and actions were the sa, leaving people speechless.
"Oh..." After Le Youran said "oh," she didn't pursue further. She wasn't the type who liked to get to the bottom of everything. She felt everyone had their own secrets, if they wanted to say sothing, they would; if not, then don't.
"By the way, what are you all doing? Who are you?" Xiaoyao looked at the Emperor and others, feeling sothing seed off about this situation. Why was this group of people behind him, and it seed like sothing had happened.
Seeing Xiaoyao's expression, Ning Zhiyuan and others understood one thing, previously it wasn't that Xiaoyao was putting on airs and ignoring people, but that he simply hadn't heard any words and didn't know what was happening nearby.
"Mr. Le, I am Ning Zhiyuan!" Ning Zhiyuan said with a smile.
"Tranquil and Far-reaching? Good na. Eh, your physiognomy seems like... Son of Heaven? You're the Great Tang Emperor?" Xiaoyao said sowhat surprisingly.
"Hmph, what an act. You knew after hearing the na, yet you talk about physiognomy!" Soone felt Xiaoyao's statent was very pretentious. He didn't believe Xiaoyao could do this, he just thought Xiaoyao must have heard the na before.
Xiaoyao smiled at this. He wouldn't bother with such people. Whether others believed it or not was none of his business.
"Hehe, I am indeed the Great Tang Emperor. Could Mr. Le help with a small favor?" Ning Zhiyuan said.
"What matter? I need to consider the situation before deciding. Also, no need to call 'mister' - just call Xiaoyao," Xiaoyao replied.
People ignored the latter part of Xiaoyao's words because they cared about the forr part. They felt that even when not in a daze, Xiaoyao still didn't take the Great Tang Emperor seriously, still needing to consider the situation before deciding.
If it were ordinary people, upon hearing such a request from the Great Tang Emperor, they would imdiately agree. Would they need to know what the matter was?
Ning Zhiyuan frowned slightly and said, "I want to ask you to help treat the people inside."
"Oh, that's fine, but how will the dical fees be calculated?" Xiaoyao asked very straightforwardly.
"..." Everyone fell silent, not expecting soone could talk to Ning Zhiyuan this way, discussing benefits and compensation before even doing the work.
"Youran, are you sure he's just a servant?" Le Yi asked Le Youran quietly at this mont, and his words also reached others' ears. These people equally wanted to know the answer to this question.
"Mm, he really is. Guxing wouldn't lie, and he has no need to deceive ," Le Youran nodded very certainly. She had never doubted this, it's just that this servant wasn't an ordinary servant.
"What kind of servant is this, able to speak to His Majesty like this..." Le Yi said sowhat speechlessly, and this was what everyone wanted to say.
So what if you're the Emperor? I'm not your servant. If you want to do things, of course there must be compensation. I'm not free labor!!
"What do you want?" Ning Zhiyuan frowned and asked.
"I want a pass to enter the imperial palace's Grand Library, allowing to read any books inside!" Xiaoyao smiled and said.
"..."
This request was both difficult and easy. The Grand Library could be freely accessed by imperial family mbers. Although the books inside were precious, containing many secret manuals others dread of, it wasn't impossible, because so important manuals were kept by the Emperor personally.
So children of Great Tang Empire noble families and ministers' families could also enter to read through the Emperor's approval, but couldn't take books out. Le Youran also had this right, being one of the most talented in the young generation.
But Xiaoyao was after all just a servant. Approving this for him seed to diminish the Grand Library's prestige.
This choice depended on how Ning Zhiyuan viewed it, essentially whether Xiaoyao was worth it. If Ning Zhiyuan felt he was worth it, he would naturally agree; otherwise, refuse.
The people inside had actually stabilized. Having Xiaoyao help was just a matter of speed, not necessity.
Therefore, what Ning Zhiyuan needed to consider now was whether this person Xiaoyao was worth winning over.
After a mont of silence, Ning Zhiyuan quickly made his decision. He smiled and said, "This isn't a problem. After completing the task, you can have my permission!"
Regardless, it was just letting soone borrow so books. He had no real loss. If others wanted to get the contents, it wasn't like there were no thods. Originally his relationship with Le Youran was quite good, he could get what he wanted from her.
Secondly, even without knowing Xiaoyao's dical skills, he could at least help, this was certain.
Finally, Xiaoyao had Guxing behind him. Winning over Xiaoyao ant winning over Guxing. This could be concluded from Le Youran's words. Moreover, Le Youran's words revealed that Guxing had potential no weaker than hers.
The extent of this potential was still unknown, but from the fact that Le Youran was already an Emperor-level martial artist, Guxing would definitely beco Emperor-level in the future. This alone was sufficient.
Therefore, regardless, Ning Zhiyuan felt this was a profitable deal.
Soon, Ning Zhiyuan beca even more certain of this, because he never expected that Xiaoyao actually knew soone inside, and their relationship was quite close.
"Eh, old monk, how are you here too?" When Xiaoyao entered the great hall, he discovered a familiar old bald donkey, the head abbot of Lanruo Temple.
The old monk looked at Xiaoyao with so surprise, taking a long ti before managing to speak, "Ah, Xiaoyao, I should be asking you this question. How are you here? Weren't you captured by that Le family girl to be hard labor? How is it? Do you need this old monk to help plead for you!"
"No need. I'm doing quite well at the Le family, good food, lodging, and wages!" Xiaoyao shook his head.
"Really no need? I have so relationship with the Le family's old patriarch!"
"No, no, I don't want to owe you favors. Then you'd drag to discuss Buddhism, what's the difference from being at the Le family!"
"Hehe, this old monk knew you'd say that, so I never interfered in your affairs!"
"..."
Seeing this situation, Ning Zhiyuan and others were stunned. Who this old monk was, everyone present knew very clearly. Although this old monk was in the Buddhist sect and didn't concern himself with worldly matters, his influence in the Great Tang Empire was definitely significant. He was soone many wanted to win over.
However, this old monk was devoted only to studying Buddhism. He never interfered in worldly affairs, so no one could win him over. Even those who could converse with him were few.
If not for the urgent situation and the need to save people, this old monk wouldn't have appeared here.
Even Ning Zhiyuan couldn't converse so casually with this old monk and had to maintain a respectful attitude in his presence. Yet this servant before them could be so casual with the old monk. From the monk's words, it seed he could even mobilize his influence for him. This was absolutely shocking.
If this weren't happening before their eyes, none of them would believe it.
Now they were all frantically thinking:
Who can tell what kind of servant this is? Are there such servants? Why don't I have one!!!
"Old monk, you're here to perform last rites for them, right!"
"..."
Xiaoyao's remark made the entire scene quiet. So were angry, so stunned, and most were speechless.
Those angry were naturally the injured people. Xiaoyao's words were clearly stimulating their hearts, though Xiaoyao might have ant the people outside, quite a few had died outside and naturally needed soone to perform last rites.
However, saying this here, at this ti, the injured would find it very, very stimulating…
