My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Chapter 205: 88: Discussing the Extent of Harm a Forced Situation Can Cause (Please Subscribe)_5

Could it be an incarnation of a certain Demon Emperor?

Did she reach some kind of deal with the King of South Ming and extract the royal bloodline from his body, allowing her to cultivate the Spirit Dao?

Cheng Guang's mouth twitched slightly, completely unable to understand how the Queen of the South Ming could extract the royal bloodline from the King of South Ming's body, enabling her to cultivate the Spirit Dao.

Furthermore, he pondered.

Why would the Queen of the South Ming, a member of the Demonic Race, cultivate the Spirit Dao?

Don't they have their own exclusive cultivation paths?

Or perhaps, the identity of the Queen of South Ming belongs to a particularly special tribe within the Demonic Race?

A torrent of thoughts surged through Cheng Guang's mind, baffled by the situation unfolding before him.

The King of South Ming sought to reclaim his throne, cozying up to both the Devil Clan and the Demonic Race, even at the cost of his royal lineage.

Just for the sake of a throne, was it really worth it?

Cheng Guang failed to comprehend the King of South Ming's way of thinking.

As to whether the King of South Ming acted out of impulse, for revenge against Wu Shang, or because he was chosen by the Devil Clan and the Demonic Race, coerced into a difficult spot, Cheng Guang had no idea.

Cheng Guang sighed and pushed the bizarre situation with the King of South Ming to the back of his mind, his gaze landing on the system task.

"Cling to the legs of the Queen of South Ming?"

"This task is somewhat interesting."

Cheng Guang raised his eyebrows slightly, aware that with his silly system's nature, he just had to complete the task according to its literal meaning and needn't delve any deeper.

But...

Even if it was only about meeting the task in a literal sense, it was incredibly difficult for Cheng Guang.

The Queen of South Ming was of the Demonic Race; she surely wasn't only cultivating the Spirit Dao but definitely also had her race's unique cultivation system.

The extent of her terrifying power was much more than Cheng Guang had initially anticipated.

At the same time, Cheng Guang guessed that the Queen of South Ming's status within the Demonic Race was not low.

One could tell from her ability to quietly break through the Border Area, arrive in the Four Directions Mortal World, and even engage in games with several Devil Emperors.

Cheng Guang thought that if he were to forcefully cling to the Queen of South Ming's "legs" now, even if she wouldn't directly kill him on the spot, she wouldn't allow him to get close at all.

"Difficult indeed."

Cheng Guang sighed, not expecting that the system's task would eventually lead to the Queen of South Ming.

If it had been this morning, when his Charm Eyes could still exert their effects, forcibly clinging to the Queen of South Ming's "legs" might have been slightly possible.

But by this hour, the Queen of South Ming had likely already removed the Divine Power Marks of the Charm Eyes from her Primordial Spirit completely.

It meant there was no chance at all.

Cheng Guang walked over to a nearby desk, poured himself a cup of tea, and tapped his fingers lightly against the desktop, producing a crisp sound.

He pondered in his mind how exactly he could cling to the Queen of South Ming's "legs."

Based on the Queen of South Ming's current attitude towards him, not killing him with a single slap was already the respect due to his status from her.

The more Cheng Guang thought about it, the more he felt the task assigned by the system was incredibly arduous.

He really hadn't expected that the Queen of South Ming would be so difficult to deal with.

If the Queen of South Ming were just an ordinary woman, he could have relied on his status to enact a scene of forcefully abducting a civilian girl, and even if the Queen of South Ming was reluctant, she wouldn't dare to be too presumptuous in Duke Zhen's Mansion and would certainly not resist.

However, the Queen of South Ming's public identity was that of his aunt.

This identity meant that if he were to bring her to his abode and act inappropriately,

setting aside what outsiders would say about him, Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei wouldn't let him off the hook.

Respect for elders was ingrained in the bones of this era, and if Cheng Guang truly committed the great taboo of making a move against his aunt, then regardless of their esteemed statuses, Cheng Zhihai and Wu Yuemei probably wouldn't be able to hold their heads high in public.

The emperor himself wouldn't look favorably upon him either.

It amounted to social death.

The more Cheng Guang thought about it, the more his head ached, so he decided not to think about it any longer. He looked over at Black Cub who was sleeping beside the bed like a dead pig, spread-eagled and snoring.

Cheng Guang felt his hand itching even more.

He picked up Black Cub by the neck and bestowed upon it a Da Bi Dou.

The crisp sound echoed in the quiet night.

Cheng Guang's mood immediately lightened up quite a bit.

Black Cub truly was a stress-reliever; the irritation in his heart calmed down instantly after a Da Bi Dou.

Originally drowsy, Black Cub instantly woke up from the Da Bi Dou. Its body jerked, looking dazedly at Cheng Guang as tears began to well up in its eyes.

Don't ask why its eyes were brimming with tears, for it loved this land deeply.

Usually, back in the Demon Realm, not to mention receiving a Da Bi Dou, there were hardly many who would dare to look it in the eye.

And now, it had been given a Da Bi Dou by a member of the Human Race, not once but several times.

Do you know how much damage a Da Bi Dou can do to a Demon Emperor?

Black Cub was furious and had half a mind to bite Cheng Guang to death.

However, no sooner had this thought risen than its whole body ached grievously; it could not muster a single rebellious thought or intention against Cheng Guang.

Black Cub fell into complete despair.

What kind of method was this?

To so manipulate a Demon Emperor at will?

Even though it was currently in its Cycle Period, with diminished cultivation and strength, not to mention its appearance and size, it was still a Demon Emperor.
