Chapter 808 - 728: Seventh Uncle Wants to Cook Me!

Ji Youzhi glanced at her coolly and spoke domineeringly.

"I think Ah Ling makes a lot of sense."

Ji Youzhi didn’t have to think to know that these formulas in his hand were definitely written by Ah Ling.

"I... I don’t want to do body training, Seventh Uncle. I will definitely be careful in the future, I absolutely won’t take risks, okay!"

Ji Youzhi patted her little head.

"Be good! It’s better to be prepared, so once we finish things here and return to the Capital City, we’ll have your Second Uncle prepare the herbs for you, and then you can start body training!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaosuisui immediately burst into tears.

"Boo hoo hoo! I don’t want to, Seventh Uncle, this Body Refining Method means I have to be boiled in a big iron pot.

Boo hoo hoo, I don’t want to be boiled! Boo hoo hoo..."

As Xiaosuisui started crying, Ji Youzhi held his head in his hands with a headache, speaking with great helplessness.

"Stop crying! Let me tell you, no matter what, I won’t agree with you today.

Not just me, but even when we return to the Capital City, your Big Uncle and the others will want you to practice the Body Refining Technique!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaosuisui cried even louder.

"I don’t want to, Seventh Uncle, I beg you, I don’t want to be boiled in a big pot!"

"What do you mean, boiled in a big pot?

Nonsense, what are you talking about?

Ji Youzhi, what are you doing to my precious daughter?"

From outside came the Emperor’s questioning voice, followed by his entrance.

Seeing the Emperor enter, Xiaosuisui immediately ran over, hugged the Emperor’s leg, and started crying again.

"Boo hoo hoo... Your Majesty, Adoptive Father, please stand up for Suisui, Seventh Uncle wants to boil me!"

As soon as Xiaosuisui clung to the Emperor’s leg, she sobbed, smearing tears and snot all over the Emperor’s clothes.

The clean-freak Emperor: "..."

"Stop it! Don’t cry! If you cry again, I’ll have to throw you into a big pot to boil for ten days or so."

"...Hiccup..."

Frightened by the Emperor, Xiaosuisui immediately stopped, but the sudden brake made her hiccup.

The pitiful and miserable look made the Emperor both amused and distressed.

He bent down to pick up the little girl, pulled out a handkerchief to wipe her face, and said.

"Don’t be afraid! With your majestic adoptive father here, no one dares to throw you into a big pot to boil. If anyone dares to think of such a thing, I’ll cook him first."

The uninformed Emperor boasted grandly, which made Xiaosuisui burst into laughter.

"Boil him, boil him! Your Majesty, Adoptive Father, you cook him. He insists on making me do body training; you might as well make him do body training and throw him in the big pot to boil!"

At these words, Ji Youzhi’s face turned dark.

"You really have no respect for your elders at all! You even want to boil your Seventh Uncle!"

This rare occasion of seeing Ji Youzhi at the end of his rope put the Emperor in an instantly good mood, so he asked cheerfully.

"What exactly are you talking about? Quick, tell me!"

Ji Youzhi, feeling helpless, handed the few formulas in his hand to the Emperor.

The Emperor took a look and said, the more he looked, the more furrowed his brow became, "How did you come up with such a cruel method?

Such a harsh method, forget Suisui, even I want to have a go at you!"

Even though the Emperor said this, in his heart he knew that these body refining methods had potential.

"Youzhi, I think Suisui might have a point, why don’t you consider it?"

Ji Youzhi: "...?"

"I’m saying, putting you in the big pot to cook.

You want Suisui to do body training, but whether this method is viable we don’t know yet.

If you can first have a go at it yourself, and successfully refine, then it’s not too late for her to do it!"

Ji Youzhi: "I... I don’t need it!"

"This is an Imperial Edict, you must do body training!"

Ji Youzhi: "Alright! I can see it now, you two father and daughter have hearts as black as black sesame seeds in a red bean paste bun, one darker than the other! Anyone would think you were related by blood!"

Out of patience, Ji Youzhi could only angrily walk away.

The Emperor casually put the body refining formulas Ji Youzhi showed him into his sleeve and then carried Xiaosuisui as he walked out.

"Youzhi, you’ve come just in time, did Xin come up with a way to send out the letter? Will Deputy General Wang and the others be able to respond in time tonight?"

Ji Youzhi thought for a moment and then said, "Whether Deputy General Wang can respond in time, I do not know, but the letter has certainly been sent out."
