MY SYSTEM IS THREE THOUSAND YEARS EARLY

Even when it came to poisoning, Cheng Guang was confident, certain there was no poison capable of affecting him.

“Excellent tea.”

After taking a sip of the tea, Cheng Guang couldn’t help but exclaim unconsciously.

Empress Wei, upon seeing the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, Cheng Guang, drink all the tea that she had sent over, couldn’t help but hold Cheng Guang, the Duke of the State, in even higher esteem.

“Alright, Princely Heir, what brings you here this time?”

Empress Wei tasted the tea herself and then seemed to ask Cheng Guang casually.

Upon hearing the question, Cheng Guang hesitated for a moment, and then said, “I plan to take Great Wei into my own hands.”

Cheng Guang declared it outright.

Once Cheng Guang’s words were uttered, the entire hall fell silent.

Aside from Cheng Guang and Empress Wei, there were quite a few others present in the hall, but as soon as Cheng Guang spoke those words, no one dared to speak.

Even Empress Wei, upon hearing Cheng Guang’s statement, seemed somewhat stunned.

Her beautiful eyes appeared slightly blank.

“You, what are you saying?”

Empress Wei looked at Cheng Guang in disbelief, asking subconsciously.

Cheng Guang repeated himself.

This time, Empress Wei heard him clearly, then her beautiful eyes lowered, and with slightly parted red lips, she laughed, “The Princely Heir must be jesting.”

“If the Princely Heir takes back what he just said, I can pretend I never heard it,” Empress Wei said.

Following Empress Wei’s response, every Palace Maid and Guard in the hall turned their gaze onto Cheng Guang.

They all knew that if Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, wasn’t foolish, he would take back his statement.

They also couldn’t understand how Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, suddenly seemed to have gone mad, daring to say such things.

To take the entire Great Wei Dynasty into your own hands?

Do you want Empress Wei to give you the Great Wei Dynasty for nothing?

Have you lost your mind!?

Everyone looked at Cheng Guang with bewildered expressions in their eyes.

Yet, Cheng Guang, facing the stares of the surrounding people and Empress Wei, remained expressionless and smiled.

“No need to take it back.”

“Empress Wei, what do you think?”

Upon hearing Cheng Guang’s words, even the composed Empress Wei could hardly maintain her composure any longer.

What do you mean, ‘what do I think’?

How am I supposed to think about this?

Empress Wei couldn’t help her lips from twitching slightly, and her complexion became less pleasant.

Despite the favor Cheng Guang had shown her before, to demand the entire Great Wei Dynasty outright was too much.

Empress Wei could see that Cheng Guang meant exactly what he said, without any room for misinterpretation.

With her disposition, Empress Wei found the situation hard to bear and her face darkened.

“Enough, Princely Heir. There’s no need for further words.”

“If you continue to spout nonsense, do not blame me for disregarding past kindnesses.”

Empress Wei knew that once in the Secret Realm, Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, had saved her life, but such a favor could not compare to the Great Wei Dynasty.

Moreover.

Empress Wei was still very much alive.

At this moment, Empress Wei was lucidly aware of the situation.

Cheng Guang, hearing Empress Wei’s words and seeing her displeased expression, did not respond much.

He simply smiled:

“Besides the Great Wei Dynasty…”

“There’s one more thing I want.”

Empress Wei truly hadn’t expected Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, to have the audacity to speak again.

He had already demanded the Great Wei Dynasty outright; what more could he want?

Empress Wei was really curious.

Therefore, she did not rush to take action against Cheng Guang, to directly throw the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir out.

Instead, she replied with a mix of anger and amusement, “Oh? What else does the Princely Heir wish to have?”

Empress Wei’s tone was somewhat sarcastic.

But Cheng Guang, seemingly oblivious to it, directly smiled and said, “I also want you.”

“I also want you.”

“Want you.”

“You.”

This statement echoed in Empress Wei’s mind.

It completely dumbfounded Empress Wei.

Not only was Empress Wei stunned, but everyone else in the hall, apart from her, and even the middle-aged soldiers outside the hall who heard Cheng Guang’s words, found it hard to contain themselves.

Demanding Cheng Guang of the Great Wei Dynasty was already seen as sheer madness.

And now,

to brazenly declare a desire for the Empress of Great Wei?

Madness!!!

Utter Madness!!!

The Empress could no longer contain herself, and was about to cast Cheng Guang out when,

a middle-aged soldier outside the grand hall took action first.

“Your Majesty, allow me to handle this.”

As the middle-aged soldier spoke, he stepped forward and lunged toward Cheng Guang.

The Empress, seeing the soldier’s action, wasn’t particularly surprised; at the same time, she didn’t interfere.

In her view, it was just the right move for the soldier to make a move. Given the martial prowess of Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, he wasn’t worth her personal intervention.

At the same time, he wasn’t worth her getting worked up over.

If Cheng Guang were not the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, and if she didn’t owe anyone a favor, the Empress would have wished to cut down the Heir right there and then.

But now…

The Town-Nation Duke’s Heir could not die.

With this in mind, the Empress couldn’t help but instruct the middle-aged soldier.

“Just teach him a lesson, no need to kill.”

Upon hearing the Empress’s words, the middle-aged soldier quickly acknowledged and, simultaneously, the force of his blows aimed at Cheng Guang was unconsciously lessened by a great deal.

In a brief moment,

the fist of the middle-aged soldier was fast approaching Cheng Guang’s face.

Under the onslaught of the soldier’s fists, Cheng Guang’s expression remained unchanged, even devoid of the slightest ripple.

“Oh?”

“Not dodging?”

“Or is it…”

“Lacking the ability to dodge?”

A stream of thoughts flickered through the mind of the middle-aged soldier.

The soldier didn’t take long to suppress all his thoughts and then threw his full force into his strike toward Cheng Guang.

Because of the Empress’s instructions, the soldier still held back some strength.

He merely wanted to cripple Cheng Guang.

Just as the middle-aged soldier believed his fist would send Cheng Guang flying and spinning 360 degrees in the air,

suddenly,

Bang!

The soldier came to an abrupt halt.

His outstretched fist was securely caught by Cheng Guang.

Despite the immense force, Cheng Guang’s body didn’t tremble in the slightest.

Only his clothes flapped a few times from the force of the punch.

“This…”

“This is impossible.”

The middle-aged soldier was horror-stricken.

He never imagined that his blow would be effortlessly blocked by Cheng Guang, leaving him completely unharmed.

Although the middle-aged soldier felt a surge of fear, he wasn’t a mediocre person; he immediately realized that perhaps Cheng Guang’s martial prowess was something to be reckoned with.

This time he was prepared to exert his full power.

Just as the middle-aged soldier was about to get serious and use some Divine Power,

Bang!!

Another dull thud.

The body of the soldier instantly stiffened.

Then he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood,

slowly collapsing to the ground.

His body trembled uncontrollably, convulsing.

Cheng Guang slowly withdrew his fist.

“Why force me to take action?”

Cheng Guang shook his head and sighed.

And after the middle-aged soldier fell,

the Empress’s beautiful eyes couldn’t help but size up Cheng Guang a few times.

At this moment, she too realized that the martial prowess of Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, seemed to be no small matter indeed.

Before, the Empress knew that the martial prowess of Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, was not weak.

He had indeed reached the ranks of Sky-Man.

However, there are many levels among Sky-Men.

Exactly which level he might be, the Empress truly did not know.
