The Queen Mother of the West and King Mu of Zhou cooperate

Inside the palace, the three harbored their own secrets. On the surface, they appeared to be getting along well, but in reality, they were all plotting their own schemes.

King Mu of Zhou raised a cup of wine and said to Qi Mo:

"My lord, I offer you a toast."

Not wanting to offend King Mu of Zhou, Qi Mo picked up his wine cup, clinked it against the glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

He had been secretly observing the Queen Mother of the West and King Mu of Zhou, but found no signs of a romantic relationship between them.

Is what the system says true or not?

[This is mentioned in the plot, but only briefly, so it may not be accurate.]

Alright, whether they're dating or not, it doesn't affect us.

Now that King Mu of Zhou has arrived in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West, the plot is unlikely to change much.

Once King Mu of Zhou leaves, the Queen Mother of the West will lie inside the meteorite.

Then you can go to Changbai Mountain and fool the King of Ten Thousand Slaves.

Qi Mo thought to himself:

I hope everything goes as you say.

A few days later, when King Mu of Zhou left the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West, the Queen Mother of the West would give him a jade figurine.

If I'm not mistaken, the jade figurine was made from fragments of a meteorite.

This thing can't make people live forever at all; wearing it for a long time will even cause physical mutations.

It is unknown whether the Queen Mother of the West also gave the Corpse Beetle Pill to King Mu of Zhou.

If not, then King Mu of Zhou was fooled from the very beginning.

Or perhaps the Queen Mother of the West arranged it this way because she hoped King Mu of Zhou would return someday…

King Mu of Zhou held an empty wine cup and looked at Qi Mo and Little Sun with great interest.

He needed to find an opportunity to be alone with the deity, as there were some things he simply couldn't say openly with the Queen Mother of the West present.

For the sake of the Western Zhou Dynasty, he was determined to abduct Qi Mo.

The Queen Mother of the West smiled slightly and looked at King Mu of Zhou:

"I have heard that the Central Plains are prosperous and the most suitable place for people to live."

"I wonder if this is true?"

King Mu of Zhou puffed out his chest:

"That's natural."

"Of all the lands under heaven, the territory of the Western Zhou Dynasty is the most suitable for human habitation, not only because of its vast territory but also because of its abundant resources..."

He became more and more proud as he spoke.

The Queen Mother of the West did not interrupt him, but waited quietly until he finished speaking before reminding him:

"The compensation that King Mu promised to give to the Queen Mother of the West should be sent over as soon as possible."

King Mu of Zhou paused for a moment before raising his head to look at the Queen Mother of the West on the throne:

"I always keep my word. Release my trusted confidant and let him return to Western Zhou with my token. The compensation I promised you will be delivered soon."

That Queen Mother of the West is such a spoilsport.

He was having a good time, why bring up these things all of a sudden?

Frustrated, he ordered a maid to pour him a glass of wine, which he then downed in one gulp.

The Queen Mother of the West sent her maid to release King Mu of Zhou's confidants.

Not long after, the confidant was brought to the main hall, where he received a jade pendant from King Mu of Zhou and then left...

Qi Mo maintained his composure and didn't speak proactively, only replying with a word or two when King Mu of Zhou brought up the topic.

Two hours later.

Qi Mo said goodbye and left, not wanting to stay with those two old foxes any longer.

Although King Mu looked harmless and smiling this week, Qi Mo knew that he was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

If you are deceived by him, the consequences will be extremely dire.

As for the Queen Mother of the West, those who know, know; she is also a ruthless person.

King Mu of Zhou wished he could chase after you, his eyes fixed longingly on your retreating figure.

Wow, he's not paying attention to the Queen Mother of the West, but to you instead!

Qi Mo said calmly:

"What's the big deal? Whoever can grant him immortality, that's who he'll focus his attention on."

"However, things are getting a bit tricky now. This King Mu of Zhou might come and bother me every day."

He still needs to conduct research, and he doesn't have much time to waste on one person.

Hopefully, King Mu of Zhou will be sensible; otherwise, he won't hesitate to be ruthless and secretly take drastic measures to break his legs.

[Do you think he would eat it if you dissolved the elixir of immortality into a lump of poop?]

Qi Mo: "..."

He was speechless for a moment.

This stupid system sometimes says really surprising things.

Who would even think of mixing the elixir of immortality into poop?!

But given King Mu of Zhou's obsession with immortality, he probably would have eaten it.

"So you're going to give him an elixir of immortality for free?"

He's not worthy; I was just saying.

Qi Mo had expected this answer, after all, the system was both unreliable and stingy, and was not a "person" who would do good deeds.

…………

Qi Mo was conducting an experiment when a commotion erupted at the door.

King Mu of Zhou tried to enter the "laboratory," but was stopped by a maid.

King Mu of Zhou looked at the large house with curiosity and asked:

"How was this built?"

The maidservant, not wanting to engage with King Mu of Zhou, could only reply irritably:

"I cannot tell you without the permission of the gods."

This person who led the army to attack their Queen Mother of the West Kingdom wants to know how the houses were built? He's dreaming!

She's so brainless as to tell these things to the enemy.

King Mu of Zhou, not getting an answer, was not annoyed, but said with a smile:

"I, the King, request an audience with the divine being. Please go in and inform him."

The maid stood guard at the door, showing no intention of going in to inform them.

"The deity said that when he is cultivating, no one should be allowed to enter or disturb him, no matter who comes to him."

"You can go now. I will tell the deity about this later."

King Mu of Zhou raised an eyebrow, very curious about how the deity cultivated himself.

Is it true that as long as you cultivate with a deity, you can gain magical power?

He stood at the door, unwilling to leave, secretly observing everything in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West.

He was very interested in everything, from the iron guns the female soldiers were carrying to the tall buildings.

Is this the weapon and the mansion created from the knowledge gained from the gods?

Qi Mo continued his experiment, showing no intention of leaving.

He had little interest in King Mu of Zhou.

This is a ferocious tiger.

He felt extremely uncomfortable around such a person and desperately wanted to dissect him on the spot.

Open the door, open the door, open the door now! Don't think I don't know you're hiding inside!

A thousand miles to meet, a lovesick man guards the door.

Oh dear, you keep attracting one trouble after another...

Qi Mo wanted to kill the system:

"Get out! You should say that to the Queen Mother of the West."

"You don't know what purpose King Mu of Zhou has in coming to see me."

"Pah! He just wants me to help him achieve immortality."

Why didn't the Queen Mother of the West restrict the scope of King Mu of Zhou's activities?

If she were abducted, she would have her moments of tears.

The Queen Mother of the West warned King Mu of Zhou not to disturb Qi Mo, but the man did not listen and insisted on his own way. What could be done?

She couldn't actually kill King Mu of Zhou.

Moreover, she had also reached a cooperation agreement with King Mu of Zhou, promising to pass on the secret to immortality to him.

The condition is that, a thousand years later, the two of them will jointly rule the world.

If Qi Mo knew about this, he would probably just chuckle and say, "What business will you have in a thousand years?"

Even if you do achieve immortality, you'll still be captured and used for research. To think you can be a king again is just wishful thinking.
