Chapter 152
Li Yu closed the window. The room was wet from the wind and rain that blew in. Li Yu called Xiao Luo over and carried the children and Baby Snow to the next room.
Da Bao grabbed his father’s sleeve and refused to leave. Li Yu hugged Da Bao and kissed him, letting him go with peace of mind.
Only the drenched Crown Prince was left.
Li Yu took a clean handkerchief and wiped the water on the Crown Prince’s face.
Mu Tianchi was still staring at him, afraid that he would fly away if he wasn’t careful.
Li Yu was distressed and angry. “What are you looking at? This is a thunderstorm, not a tribulation! You don’t even use an umbrella. Are you made of iron? ”
The Crown Prince was speechless.
The Crown Prince curled his lips and coughed. “I forgot.”
Li Yu kept a straight face as she lectured him. But even though she lectured him, her actions were very gentle.
After wiping his face, Li Yu found a set of clean clothes from the wardrobe. He wanted to wipe the Crown Prince’s body and change his clothes.
“Xiao Yu, you’re wet too.” The Crown Prince struggled.
The Crown Prince wanted to change himself, but Li Yu glared at him fiercely. The Crown Prince knew that he was in the wrong and had no choice but to shut his mouth.
Li Yu nimbly helped him change his clothes. She then looked at herself. Most of her clothes were already wet. Li Yu took off her wet outer shirt, found a quilt, and crawled under it.
Mu Tianchi was speechless.
Mu Tianchi also crawled in.
The two hugged each other and listened to the wind and rain outside the window with their body temperature.
Li Yu thought carefully for a while. He didn’t know how to make the topic clear, so he went straight to the point. “Tianchi, do you want to make me the Regent Queen in the future?”
The Crown Prince, who was caught off guard, was speechless.
The Crown Prince didn’t know how this fish knew about his plan. This was not the point. The carp spirit must have some tricks that he didn’t know. He didn’t care.
However, he couldn’t admit it when it came to the country.
Mu Tianchi said coldly, “No, I didn’t think about it.”
The bastard still didn’t admit it! Just a little bit more and everything would have been over!
Li Yu was so angry that he wanted to bite someone. However, when he saw the obvious teeth marks on the back of the Crown Prince’s hand, Li Yu couldn’t bear to do it.
“Stupid Crown Prince, listen to me.”
Li Yu grabbed the Crown Prince’s collar. The Crown Prince lowered his eyes, silently and obediently encircling Li Yu.
“Do you think I’m going to transcend the tribulation and fly … ascend to the heavens? It’s not like that! ”
Li Yu is already trying her best to translate the system’s language into cultivation language. It’s not convenient for her to reveal it.
“I transcended the tribulation because I wanted to completely transform into a human. This is the purpose of my tribulation. ”
Crown Prince: “…”
The Crown Prince thought to himself that this must be a lie. How could there be an evil spirit in this world who didn’t want to be an immortal and wanted to be a mortal?
However, the one who told him this was a carp spirit who had already given birth to his children in his arms …
The Crown Prince unconsciously hugged Li Yu tightly. “Is it true?”
“It’s true!” Li Yu hurriedly promised. No matter what, it was true that he wanted to transform into a human!
“Then why did you …” The Crown Prince was still worried.
Li Yu: “There’s no reason. I don’t want to be an immortal.”
His sparkling eyes gazed at the Crown Prince, who was afraid of parting with him, and said softly, “I only like you.”
“You … will regret it.” The Crown Prince reminded him in a hoarse voice.
Evil spirits lived longer than humans. If Xiaoyu wanted to be a human, the Crown Prince was full of contradictions. Although he hoped that they could be together for a hundred lifetimes, he didn’t want Xiaoyu to destroy her future for him.
Because he liked this fish so much, even if he had to choose between himself and Xiaoyu, he would still choose Xiaoyu without hesitation.
“I won’t regret it, really!” Li Yu said loudly. “Tianchi, when you appointed the Queen Regent, did you ever regret it?”
“What if I have ulterior motives? What if I approach you for other purposes? What if everything I do is to bring chaos to the country —”
“You’re not,” the Crown Prince said firmly. “Even if you are, it doesn’t matter.”
Li Yu was stunned. The Crown Prince actually said … it didn’t matter?
The Crown Prince hugged Li Yu and let him lie on his chest. He rested his chin on his forehead.
“Liao Kong said that you saved me before. Although I know, I just can’t remember. Later, the imperial physician cured me of the poison of the snow crow seed. I was in a coma for a period of time. By chance, I remembered the past. ”
Many years ago, he hugged the fish like this. The fish lay on his chest and wagged its tail happily.
“Xiaoyu, you saved me. I remember everything. Even my life is yours. If it’s you, it doesn’t matter,” the Crown Prince said.
“You really remember it?”
Li Yu felt that it was unbelievable. It was just a side task, but he actually appeared in Mu Tianchi’s memory. At that time, what he thought was an illusion was actually real. The name Mu Tianchi was also because of him. Besides being surprised, Li Yu was also glad.
Fortunately, he saved the little fatty. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Li Yu always had a lot of questions in his heart. Since they talked about it, he could ask.
“Tianchi, why do you always touch the fish’s head? What do you mean?” Li Yu asked curiously.
He obviously learned this action from the adult Mu Tianchi and taught it to the little fatty. The little fatty was not even familiar with ruining fish back then. When he grew up, he used it on him. What was the meaning of this mysterious and magical signature action?
Mu Tianchi smiled and rubbed his head again. He said with a double meaning, “Stop fooling around.”
The Crown Prince refused to say anything again. Li Yu groaned gloomily.
“Then, why did you pick up the fish back then?”
He could at least say this, right?
Now, Mu Tianchi could answer this question. He kissed his lips and said, “Because the sound of the fish’s tail suddenly stopped.”
Li Yu was confused.
“Although I don’t remember at that time, I still remember the sound of your tail. When the sound stopped, the fish died. I don’t want you to die, “the Crown Prince said.
Li Yu was moved. So it was like this. The Crown Prince saved him. It was the result of him saving the Crown Prince, and it was also the reason why he could save the Crown Prince. This was a super difficult question of which came first, the chicken or the egg. This … was a f * cking circle!
But so what? The Crown Prince didn’t care at all. He … didn’t care if he was hugged like this.
“Tianchi, this is the last tribulation. Can you help me?” Li Yu said pitifully, “If I can’t complete it, I will turn into fish bones and fish ashes.”
The Crown Prince was speechless.
Was it that serious to fail a tribulation?
How could the Crown Prince bear to let the carp demon turn into fish bones and fish ashes? He nodded solemnly.
“What do you need me to do?” the Crown Prince asked.
A few days later, the Crown Prince’s coronation ceremony.
Mu Tianchi was appointed as the Crown Prince in front of the ancestors of Ancestor Worship Hall. After the imperial edict was read, the Emperor pardoned the world and everyone celebrated.
Li Yu was wearing the Crown Princess’s embroidered uniform. As the Crown Princess, he stood closer to the Crown Prince than the others. He had a solemn expression and his back was straight.
After the imperial edict was read, the Emperor ordered the Crown Prince to worship the heavens on his behalf. Li Yu and the others were about to kneel down. Mu Tianchi strode in front of Li Yu and held the Crown Princess’s hand as if no one else was around.
This wasn’t good, right?
The coronation ceremony was the Crown Prince’s stage. Why was the Crown Princess joining in the fun? Li Yu felt everyone’s eyes on him and was under great pressure.
“Don’t be nervous. I’ve already reported to Father,” the Crown Prince said.
When Li Yu heard this, he glanced at the Emperor from afar. The Emperor waved at them.
The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were the future Emperor and Empress. It was okay for the Crown Princess to worship the heavens with the Crown Prince.
The Crown Prince had always been considerate. Li Yu didn’t have to worry about these trivial matters. He was pulled by the Crown Prince and the two walked to the Star Hill Platform built for the ceremony.
The platform stood tall with a divine position on it. Countless offerings were placed in front of the divine position. The drums and music sounded. Li Yu was fully focused on the Crown Prince’s movements. They completed the complicated ceremony together.
After the ceremony, the two looked at the crowd below the platform. Li Yu inexplicably thought of the people who bowed to him in the west. Facing such a scene again, he was already confident.
Perhaps, this was the feeling of being in a superior position.
“Is it done?” the Crown Prince asked.
“It’s done.” Li Yu nodded expectantly.
Xiaoyu wanted to go through the tribulation when the ceremony was more ritualistic. The Crown Prince struggled for a long time before he understood what ritualistic feeling was. He chose the time of the ceremony to help Xiaoyu.
The Crown Prince looked into Li Yu’s eyes and said softly, “I’m willing —”
The System’s voice sounded in Li Yu’s mind, intertwining with the Crown Prince’s voice. It was both a pledge of loyalty and the sweetest confession.
The Crown Prince said clearly, “I’m willing to share the country with you.”
The “Share the Country” quest was finally completed.
Li Yu wanted to wake up from his dreams with a smile. After the ceremony, he found an empty spot and entered the System. Once he was free, he waited to straighten his back and receive the reward.
The system had already sent out the reward package for the Main Storyline. Li Yu clicked on it and accepted it. His human transformation skill had become Fish Transformation, and there was no time limit or number of times it could be used. He could even cancel it. This meant that under normal circumstances, he was no longer a fish, but a human.
And he was a human who could transform into a fish at will.
The mermaid and fishman skills were the same. There were no longer any restrictions. He could perfectly play the role of a carp spirit.
Li Yu’s Dimensional Pocket doubled again, to the point where she didn’t even know how big it was.
For the final reward, an illusory door appeared in front of Li Yu.
What was this? Li Yu asked.
The System said, “Congratulations, Host. You have completed all the main quests and changed the tyrant’s personality. You can return to the real world through this door.”
Li Yu: “…”
Li Yu still remembered that he was wearing a book. Behind this door, was leaving this book?
Li Yu took a deep breath. He admitted that this was indeed a great temptation. He wanted to leave on the first day he transmigrated, but now that he could leave, he couldn’t take this step.
He already had ties in this ancient world. He had Old Gong who doted on him, and he had cute children. How could he bear to leave them?
The System said, “Host, please don’t worry. If the host chooses to leave, the host’s memory will be reset. I guarantee that the host won’t feel guilty.”
Li Yu: “???”
He knew that this reset would only reset him, not Old Gong. If he did that, he would leave his children and Old Gong behind. That would be too heartless.
I won’t leave, Li Yu said.
The Crown Prince didn’t regret his trust and love. He didn’t regret it either.
If he was a carp spirit, he wouldn’t regret giving up on becoming an immortal.
If he was a system fish, he wouldn’t regret giving up the chance to return to the real world.
The System received Li Yu’s confirmation. The illusory door flashed twice and disappeared completely.
The System said, “Since the host doesn’t want to accept this reward, change it to something else.”
A small button appeared where the illusory door was, and a line of golden words floated above it — Two Days Trip in the Modern World.
The System said, “Host, please choose a team member. This reward can stay in the modern world for two days in the modern world, but only for fifteen minutes in the ancient world. Host, please choose if you want to accept.”
Li Yu: “…”
Oh, oh, oh, so this became a fifteen minutes trip back to his parents’ home?
It wasn’t bad to be able to visit his parents’ home once in a while, and it wouldn’t be a problem to leave for fifteen minutes. He could even form a team and go back together?!
But who should he bring?
There were four babies and Snow Bao. If he brought one, he would have to bring the others. He couldn’t be biased.
However, it was also a disaster for him to bring five children to a place that he was not familiar with.
System, can I bring Tyrant?! Li Yu asked.
The System said, “Yes.”
