Staying Alive Cautiously in the Celestial Realm and Becoming the Strongest

Chapter 975: Chapter 975: An Audience with the Emperor (Part 2) Chapter 975: Chapter 975: An Audience with the Emperor (Part 2) For Wang Chen, this audience with the emperor was quite interesting.

Emperor Shaowu was not the majestic ruler people commonly imagined. There was little about him that seemed supremely imperial; he was more like a Confucian teacher from a private school, educating his students.

To tell the truth, Wang Chen even doubted if the person before him was an impostor emperor!

Emperor Shaowu was quite talkative, and it was clear he took a liking to Wang Chen, chatting with him for a long time.

Interestingly, the conversation didn’t touch on any matters of state or anything related to the Blood Cloak Guard.

The emperor inquired into Wang Chen’s background, sighed with emotion upon learning about his past and listened with great interest to his demon-slaying tales. He even took the time to learn about the local customs and cultures.

After listening, he appeared thoroughly satisfied.

“If there’s an opportunity,” lamented the emperor, “I really would like to travel the lands and see the grand rivers and mountains of Great Liang and the common people.”

Emperor Shaowu said this with a sigh, “It’s a pity…”

What was a pity he didn’t say, just shook his head wistfully, seemingly preoccupied with some thoughts.

But this emperor’s mood shifted quickly, and soon he was smiling again, “Wang Chen, at such a young age you have achieved so much, which is no small feat. What reward would you like?”
