Chapitre 88: Curing the Emperor
Cross woke up the next day and followed Yun Che and Cang Yue to the Palace. Cross followed into the Emperor's chambers and Cang Yue said "Master Gu! How is my father?" Yun Che and Cross looked over at an old man, who sighed "I have still not found a way to deal with it, your highness. Please forgive me."
Cross smiled lightly and took out a bucket of clear fluid, he waved his hand and a stream went into Master Gu's mouth. Cang Yue was startled and Cross said "It's just water, Master Gu must be perched after doing such a good job."
Cang Yue nodded and said "Yes, Master Gu. Thank you." Cross asked "Master Gu, could you tell me what happened you the Emperor?" Master Gu blurted "I planted a Soul Devouring Life Binding Parasite into the Emperor, so he died during the power struggle of the two princes."
Cross nodded and asked "Yes, of course.. Could you explain why?" Master Gu said with a completely white face "I was paid off by the Crown Prince, Cang Lin." Cross opened his hand and revealed a sound recording stone as he smiled "Thank you for that Master Gu."
Master Gu turned completely pale and fell limp to the ground. Yun Che grinned coldly and Cang Yue was in shock, her face turned pale and she started crying. Cross waved and Master Gu was crippled completely as he said "Little bro, get your wife in order. If you want to catch a big fish we gotta make it a good act. I'll put the bait out."
Cross turned invisible and Master Gu started walking normally, right out the door. Yun Che hugged Cang Yue and assured her everything would be okay.
Cross used Master Gu like a puppet and walked out of the palace, a young man stepped out and smiled with meaning as he said "Master Gu, I assume my father's condition is getting 'better'?" Master Gu smiled and said "Of course, your highness. This Gu has 'made sure' the Emperor makes a 'speedy recovery'."
Cang Lin nodded with a smile and handed him a ring as he said "Inside is your payment, Master Gu. Thank you again." Master Gu took the bag and said "Not a problem, Your Highness." before walking away, Cang Lin smiled and went his own way.
Cross got out of sight and threw a notice me not on Master Gu before jumping back into the city towards the palace with Master Gu in his hands. He went to a certain location and saw Daphne, he smiled and said "Sis, I have something for you."
Daphne jumped and said "Cross?! Where are you?" Cross revealed himself and said "Come with me." Daphne followed him and Cross teleported back to the Emperor's room. The Emperor looked over and said "Ms. Greengrass?" Cross smiled and threw Master Gu on the floor as he said "Yo. Emperor bro, this guy was the cause of your Soul Devouring whatever it was called." he threw over a stone and Yun Che caught it before replaying what was on the stone.
The Emperor was furious and glared at Master Gu, Cross spoke at this moment "Emperor, if you want to catch a big fish you can't chase it with your hands." The Emperor sighed and said "We understand."
Cross was confused and said "We? Did that Parasite take over?" Yun Che covered his eyes and turned the side, chuckling, Cang Yue felt her mouth twitch and she said "Cross, we means the royal 'We' as in Emperor." Cross said "Oh. That's weird, why not just say 'I'? Strange people here... Anyway! This is my sister, which is why she's here. Master Gu can be thrown into the dungeons or something..."
Cross added "I can heal the Emperor... but it'll cost you." as he looked at Yun Che, who was confused. Cross said "Are you sure you want to use your one and only favor from me on this?" Yun Che got it now and said seriously "Yes, please heal my father-in-law."
Cang Yue gasped and said "Yun Che..." Yun Che smiled softly and Daphne rolled her eyes, he found another schemer...
Cross walked over and green strings shot out of his finger tips as he said "All you need to do is fake your illness..." the strings went into his chest and searched around his body before extracting the parasite, the parasite tried to kill Cang Yue's dad, but who was Cross?
What a joke. If this parasite managed to kill the Emperor, then Cross would immediately kill himself.
Sure enough, Cross sneered as he said "Stupid bug, do you think you're powerful? Who you trying to take to the grave with you?" the parasite was chopped up to pieces and the green strings healed the Emperor, he was probably even better than before!"
Cross said "Though, being the Emperor, I assume you know how to scheme. Or else you would probably buried in a field." Cang Yue chided "Cross!" The Emperor was stunned before laughing as he said "That's right! Hahaha! Come little friend, what's your name?"
Cross smiled as he said "Cross. Though the other male in this room just said he was going to be your son-in-law, maybe you should take care of this first?" The Emperor looked at Yun Che up and down, while Yun Che said "Father-in-law, if you keep staring at me like that people might have strange thoughts..."
The Emperor almost coughed out blood as he smacked Yun Che with a small smile saying "You brat! Teasing your father-in-law like this, is it fun?" Yun Che chuckled and Cang Yue blushed hearing her father accept Yun Che.
The Emperor said "My name is Cang Wanhe, thank you for saving my life." Cross said "If not for Yun Che, I wouldn't have done anything." Cang Wanhe's eyes flashed and he said "I see.." how could he not see what was happening here. These brats were playing him like a fiddle!
Cang Wanhe said "Ms. Greengrass, if you could take Master Gu to the dungeons please. Do make sure you are not seen." Daphne smiled and dragged Master Gu away, shooting Cross a grateful look. Perhaps the Emperor would give her a better job because of this.
Cross grinned and returned to the Sky Poison Pearl, sparring with Jasmine, who was watching the whole time, as his job was finished. What favor? All bullshit so Cang Yue wouldn't feel indebted to him.
A while later
Yun Che walked out and saw two boys, but one was staring at Daphne in awe. Cross immediately appeared and stepped in front of Daphne saying "Hello? Do you know it's rude to stare?" the boy was startled and another boy shot forward and pointed "Hey! You with the tattoos! Looking like a mysterious figure, close to a woman! Who are you to get in front of my Big Bro and the love of his life!?"
The other boy almost spat out a mouthful of blood and seethed "Little Jie!" these were the two young masters of the Heavenly Sword Villa, Ling Yun and Ling Jie.
Cross actually sort of liked this little guy, he was excitable and energized, but he was defending his sister here! So he said "I'm her brother! What do you have to say now?!" Ling Jie was stumped and went silent for a moment before seeing Cang Yue.
His eyes popped out of their sockets and he said "You're the legendary Blue Moon Princess? Whoa whoa whoa! Big Bro, this Princess Sis is even more beautiful than you described!" Ling Yun slapped his forehead in anger and Cang Yue said "Hello..."
Ling Jie picked his eyes up off the ground and they fell back down again as he said "Princess Sis, not only are you very beautiful, even your voice is very pleasant to hear… Ah, right! Princess Sis, marry me and be my wife, okay?"
Ling Yun wanted nothing more than to strangle this damn fool! Yun Che felt his lips twitch and Cang Yue felt awkward, slowly moving towards Yun Che. Ling Jie pointed at Yun Che and said "Hey! You with the not as handsome as that other guy face! Who are you to get in the way of me and my wife?!"
Cross burst out laughing and Yun Che smirked as he said "She's MY wife, what do you have to say now?" Ling Jie was stumped yet again before snapping his fingers and saying "I'll fight you both for both girls!"
Cross slapped him into the next room and a few seconds later Ling Jie came back with a red mark on his cheek as he snapped and said "I'll fight you for the princess!" Yun Che sent him flying with a slap and Ling Jie came running back before snapping his fingers and saying "I'm taking you as my boss in the future!"
Yun Che and Cross laughed before stopping and looking at each other saying "I'm the boss." Yun Che said "No way! It's me, didn't you hear him!?" Cross smacked his lips and said "Bah! Bah! I'll send you flying with a slap too!" Yun Che gave him the finger and Ling Jie snapped his finger and said "I got two bosses now! Nice!"
Ling Jie fawned "Can the bosses teach this Jie a little something? Like that Divine slapping art?" Cross said "You just gotta tilt your hand up and then twist your arm as it goes through the air, but you can't use any killing intent. It's virtually unstoppable! Watch."
Murong Ye came flying into the palace and Cross slapped him back out, Ling Jie had stars in his eyes and he shouted "COOL!" Ling Yun coughed and said "Princess, us brothers came to the imperial city this time to deliver this invitation to the noble imperial family; may Princess please accept it."
A light golden-colored invitation was taken out by Ling Yun and delivered to Cang Yue's hands. Ling Yun proceeded, and said: "In half a year, we will welcome the noble imperial family's visit to the Heavenly Sword Villa. If Princess can do me the honor of visiting personally, that would be too great. This time, Princess has this kind of shocking genius, Yun Che, by your side, so I believe that three years from now, the noble imperial family will definitely be able to shine with Yun Che… So with that, us two brothers' mission has been accomplished; we'll take our leave now."
Ling Yun looked at Daphne with a soft smile before dragging Ling Jie away, out of the Palace. Cross said "I don't like 'im!" Daphne slapped his shoulder and said "Because he likes me?!" Cross clicked his tongue and said "Who's good enough for my sister? No one that's who? I don't even remember his name. He didn't even make a stand and demand I hand you over! What kind of man is this?!"
Daphne slapped her forehead and said "Is that what you did?" Cross scoffed and said "I told him the truth. I impregnated his daughter and we were getting married, what was he suppose to say? No? I would've kidnapped her."
Cang Yue and Yun Che were stunned, Daphne rubbed her eyebrows and said "Well I think he was very nice! I'm 25! I would like to get married one day too!" Cross snorted and Daphne stomped off grumbling "Damn bastard.. Wait till I find Hermione..."
Cross jumped and said "Oi! Hold up!" Daphne ignored him and left with a giggle. Cross was devastated and Yun Che said "Good brother! You got her pregnant and then married her?!" Cross sighed and said "I couldn't find a suitable ring for her when she told me, I found it a few days later though."
Cang Yue shook her head and said "Wow..." Cross grumbled and returned to spar with Jasmine to vent his depressed feelings. Yun Che chuckled and started talking to Cang Yue about the tournament.
A while later
Cross was watching as Yun Che fought against a kid and blew him up like a water balloon. Cross clicked his tongue and said "I wonder if that old man will make a move." as he ate from a popcorn bag, Jasmine stuck her hand in the bag and grabbed some popcorn as she said "Nah, that woman will save him."
Cross sighed and said "What a lucky guy." as he reached for the bag, Jasmine nodded and reached for the bag as well. Their hands touched and Jasmine blushed furiously, Cross didn't really have too many scruples as he said "Wow! You have soft hands!" before brushing his finger tips past her palm and grabbing more popcorn.
Jasmine's face reddened and she slapped Cross, sending him flying as she shouted "Idiot!"
