50: The beautiful ladies of the capital! Third-rank sorcerer Ye Xingzhou!

Li Shengyuan's body stiffened. Although his back was to Shen Xinrong, he could feel the dangerous gaze of Aunt Shen behind him.

However, he had seen many big scenes and quickly regained his composure, even showing surprise.

"Oh? This green orange has such a wonderful use? I've never been to a place like the Jiaofang Division, so how would I know how to use green oranges? As for the green oranges on me, that's because I was on duty too late last night, and my brothers bought them to refresh themselves.

Speaking of which... where did Aunt Shen hear this saying from?"

Facing Li Shengyuan's suspicious gaze, Shen Xinrong impatiently pinched Li Shengyuan's shoulder hard, and much of the doubt in her heart dissipated, so she explained:

"You're turning the tables on me! Your aunt has friends in the Capital of Great Qian, alright? I heard them talking about it when I was sitting with those official wives."

"Aunt Shen, spend less time with those official wives. They are all like wolves and tigers; don't let them lead you astray!" Li Shengyuan advised earnestly.

"Pfft..."

Shen Xinrong giggled, saying with a smile, "Those sisters are indeed at a ravenous age, and they even wanted me to introduce you to them! They said your background is strong, so even if their official husbands found out, they wouldn't dare to trouble you!"

Then she gave Li Shengyuan a charming glare and chided, "They also said you're handsome and capable, and they'd be willing to treat you to free meals every day!"

"How about it? Are you tempted? Do you want your aunt to play matchmaker for you? Those official wives are really beautiful!"

Xiaoqian, who was standing by, blushed and felt hot-eared listening to Shen Xinrong.

Li Shengyuan was also stirred up listening. None of the official wives in the Capital of Great Qian were ugly; he had seen many high-ranking officials' main wives before.

Moreover, those high-ranking officials played a lot more, many of them were regular customers of the Jiaofang Division, and they also kept a bunch of concubines at home.

Although the main wives were beautiful and of noble status, they were inevitably neglected, so there were countless resentful women in the Capital of Great Qian.

It's no exaggeration to say that if Li Shengyuan just crooked his finger, let alone those deeply resentful women, even their high-ranking official husbands would rush to send their wives into his arms...

Because someone had really done it before.

Previously, due to his identity, he had no such thoughts, but now that he was a villain, why not...? Li Shengyuan thought to himself.

He certainly couldn't show it on his face. Li Shengyuan replied to Shen Xinrong with a look of disdain:

"Tsk, with a wave of my hand, I don't know how many beautiful women would fall into my arms; why would I need your introduction!"

Shen Xinrong was immediately infuriated by Li Shengyuan's smug look. She gritted her teeth and reached out her slender finger to pinch his ear, huffing angrily:

"Oh, you! You've really grown up, and you actually have such thoughts!"

Li Shengyuan smiled and reached his hand behind him, pulling Shen Xinrong's slender waist into his embrace, causing Aunt Shen to let out a soft cry. He looked deeply into her beautiful eyes and said affectionately:

"I was just saying it; what do those many beautiful women have to do with me?"

"As the saying goes, 'Among three thousand weak waters, I only take one scoop of Aunt Shen.' Having you is enough!"

Li Shengyuan firmly adhered to the truth of speaking to people as they are, no matter what he thought in his heart, what he said was definitely pleasant to hear!

Shen Xinrong, who was still huffing, heard his words, and the anger on her face not only vanished completely but was replaced by a shy and happy expression.

A blush appeared on her mature face, and she said shyly:

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm your aunt, and Xiaoqian is still watching!"

Although she knew that Li Shengyuan couldn't possibly only have her in his heart, Shen Xinrong was still very satisfied to hear him say these words.

Shen Xinrong was very content that Li Shengyuan could treat her sincerely and would not ask him foolish questions like, "What about your Empress Senior Sister and Princess Pingyang?"

Li Shengyuan smiled gently, "Xiaoqian is not an outsider, and you're not my real aunt. Just because I call you aunt, you really think of yourself as an elder, huh!"

"Besides, in the entire Capital of Great Qian, who doesn't know that you, Shen Xinrong, are mine!"

Xiaoqian, who was standing by, was deeply moved by Li Shengyuan's words.

A sweet smile also hung on Shen Xinrong's lips in his arms.

Seeing that he had made Aunt Shen happy, Li Shengyuan also said with a serious expression:

"I came back so early because there's an important matter. His Majesty has already issued an imperial decree, ordering me to lead people to the Northern Border tomorrow morning to deal with the matters of the sects and officials in the Northern Border. Since Aunt Shen wants to go with me, you should also prepare well!"

"Leaving tomorrow morning? So urgent?" Shen Xinrong's delicate brows furrowed slightly.

"This matter cannot be delayed. The longer those pests remain, the greater the harm, and we can't let them escape!"

Shen Xinrong nodded gently, "Alright then. How many strong individuals has your Senior Sister sent to accompany you? Will the Division Lord of the Demon Suppression Division go with you?"

The strong individuals she mentioned were at least Fourth-Rank in various systems!

Li Shengyuan shook his head slightly, "Of the three Division Lord of the Demon Suppression Division, Division Lord Mo has to stay in the Capital of Great Qian, while the other two are in the Western Regions and Southern Border respectively, both unable to leave."

"Including me, there are four Golden Uniform, so in total, there should be about ten Fourth-Rank individuals."

In the Demon Suppression Division, the number of Golden-robed Demon Suppressors is limited, with only nine in total. Even if others reach Fourth-Rank in cultivation and meet the contribution requirements, they still have to honestly wait in line to be Silver-robed. However, their treatment is much better than ordinary Silver-robed.

In addition to their four Golden Uniform, three other Fourth-Rank individuals would also go.

Shen Xinrong, however, frowned slightly, "Although the number of strong sect members in the Northern Border Three Prefectures is slightly less than in places like Jiangnan and the Central Plains, there are still quite a few Third-Rank individuals. If there isn't a Third-Rank strong individual accompanying us, it will be much harder to get things done!"

Li Shengyuan smiled calmly, "Of course there are Third-Rank individuals. The strong individuals of the Demon Suppression Division cannot leave, but the Imperial Observatory has them!"

"This operation is led by me, with the Demon Suppression Division and Imperial Observatory working together. I have already asked my Senior Sister and the Imperial Observatory for one person."

"Who?" Shen Xinrong asked curiously.

"The Second Chancellor of the Imperial Observatory, a Third-Rank spellcaster who is also a spirit array master, artifact forger, and alchemist—Ye Hangzhou!"

Hearing the name Ye Hangzhou, Shen Xinrong's eyes also lit up, and she nodded, saying:

"If this guy accompanies us, then half of the Northern Border trip is settled!"

Ye Hangzhou was also a famous genius in the Capital of Great Qian before, but after breaking through to Third-Rank and becoming a Chancellor of the Imperial Observatory, he became much more low-key.

Although spellcasters are not skilled in combat, their methods are bizarre and unpredictable.

If given enough time to set up a Third-Rank spirit array, even several Third-Rank strong individuals would be helpless against him!

Moreover, besides these legitimate moves, it's not guaranteed that these spellcasters won't also research other strange things.

Shen Xinrong then asked curiously, "Doesn't Ye Hangzhou only listen to the Chancellor of the Imperial Observatory and not even your Senior Sister? How could he possibly go to the distant Northern Border with us?!"

Li Shengyuan smiled mysteriously, "Because he has a handle in my hands. He has to go to the Northern Border Three Prefectures!"

Ye Hangzhou's personality is uninhibited and arrogant. Besides the Chancellor who raised him and taught him all his skills, he doesn't listen to anyone!

But now there's also Li Shengyuan...

He'll keep Ye Hangzhou's secret for a lifetime!
