Let Go of That Shoe and Let This Old Minister Lick It!
Buzz—!
Devil Bear Douluo's aggrieved, watery bear eyes suddenly widened to their limits.
His neck turned stiffly, like a rusted gear grinding out a creak-creak, toward the counter.
And there she stood.
The cold divine envoy—Zhu Zhuqing—had stopped wiping the tables.
Her frosty, crystalline eyes were fixed straight on him.
Devil Bear's complexion drained instantly.
White.
Blank.
Dead man walking.
Cold sweat streamed down his forehead like he was leaking.
"Smack!"
He slapped himself—hard—so hard he spun half a circle on the spot.
"D- Divine… Divine Envoy! I was wrong! I didn't mean it! My mouth slipped!"
He didn't even wait for Zhu Zhuqing to react.
"THUD!"
He threw himself onto the floor in a giant "大" shape, arms and legs spread out as if presenting himself for execution.
"You— You all should just beat me up again! Beat me to death!!"
The Elders exchanged looks.
This… creature… belonged to their Elder team?
Devil Bear Douluo hesitated—
then decided it still wasn't safe.
He silently, firmly, protectively clamped his hands over his crotch.
His small bear eyes stared vigilantly at Ghost Douluo.
"Elder Ghost… we agreed! You can't go for my crotch this time!"
After all, Ghost Douluo had a record of cruelty.
Ghost Douluo: "…"
Everyone else: This clown single-handedly ruins our Elder Hall's reputation every day…
On the other side, Zhu Zhuqing finally looked away.
Her gaze returned to the light screen—but her eyes had become complicated, layers of indescribable emotion swirling within.
Her father…
The man who had always demanded perfection—
The man whose face was colder than iron—
Could also bow, fawn, and grovel like a court eunuch?
Her chest tightened.
Star Luo Imperial Palace Grand Hall
Dai Tianfeng and Zhu Chenfei talked with such passion they almost burst into song.
Yet their sycophantic performance was delivered to the air.
Zhu Zhuyun ignored them completely.
Ning Fengzhi kept his head down, silent like a humble attendant.
The atmosphere thickened into awkwardness once more.
Dai Tianfeng's face darkened.
He snapped his head around and bellowed at Dai Weisi—who had just climbed up from the floor, still drooling blood.
"REBELLIOUS SON! GET OVER HERE!!"
Of course, the hall's seasoned ministers knew the truth.
The emperor wasn't scolding the prince.
He was putting on a face-saving show for the Divine Emissary.
Dai Tianfeng jabbed at Weisi's nose, righteous fury overflowing.
"Zhuyun is your future wife!
The future Empress of my Star Luo!"
"What kind of attitude did you show her earlier?!"
"Hurry! Apologize to Zhuyun!"
He never once said "Divine Emissary."
Only "family, daughter-in-law, empress."
He acted as though what he truly cared about was the harmony of a royal marriage—
Not the terrifying divine background that could destroy his entire Empire in a breath.
Dai Weisi trembled violently.
Prince's pride?
Gone.
Evaporated.
Buried and cremated.
He scrambled forward, tripped, crawled, and kowtowed before Zhu Zhuyun.
His earlier fury disappeared like it had never existed.
His expression was now so fawning that the hall nearly drowned in the stench of flattery.
"Zhuyun, I… I was wrong! I'm not human! I'm trash!"
He raised his hand and slapped himself twice—
PA! PA!
"I swear I'll never look at another woman again! From now on, I'll treat you like a goddess!"
His sincerity was almost touching.
Almost.
Watching from Feng Ran Pavilion—
Bibi Dong burst into laughter.
Her warm breath brushed Lin Feng's ear as she leaned close, teasingly:
"Senior, is there something wrong with the brains of the Dai bloodline?"
"The younger brother gets crippled and still tries to take Zhuqing as a wife."
"The older brother watches that same younger brother get stomped to death—
and then crawls over to wipe the killer's shoes for favor?"
Lin Feng didn't even blink.
One word:
"Nature."
Bibi Dong blinked, then laughed even harder—her soft chest gently pressing against Lin Feng's back.
"I see."
Yue Guan twirled his orchid fingers and cackled:
"He simply wants to taste what a Divine Emissary's shoe sole tastes like."
Everyone roared with laughter.
Meanwhile…
Dai Weisi's gaze had already fallen onto Zhu Zhuyun's high heel.
The heel was stained—
with Dai Mubai's bright red blood.
Dai Weisi's eyes lit up like gemstones.
"Zhuyun! Your shoe is dirty!"
His tone was filled with heartache—
as though the blood stain was carved onto his own heart.
"I'll wipe it for you!"
In front of the court, the Star Luo First Prince, future emperor—
"THUD!"
He prostrated himself like a loyal dog.
He shoved Dai Mubai's corpse aside—like a discarded carcass.
Pulled up his priceless python robe's sleeve.
And carefully—gently—devotedly—
Began wiping the heel.
Every motion tender and reverent.
His face full of religious fervor.
Ministers' eyelids twitched violently.
Dai Tianfeng squinted slightly—
Very good.
Able to bend and stretch.
The material of an emperor.
The ministers?
They had already lowered their heads—not out of shame,
but to hide the jealousy burning in their eyes.
Wiping a Divine Emissary's shoe?
What an honor!
If rank allowed, they would have rushed forward immediately—
Kick aside Dai Weisi—
And shout:
"YOU FOOL!"
"That sleeve is too rough! It'll scratch the Divine Emissary's shoe!"
"This calls for the tongue!"
"Yes! Use the softest, most loyal, most devout tongue to lick every corner!"
"The First Prince is still too inexperienced!"
"Move aside and let us old ministers handle such sacred duties!"
At this moment—
Every single civil and military official in the hall had the same thought:
Why isn't that MY head on the floor?!
And at the absolute front of the crowd stood the Star Luo Empire's Prime Minister—
A white-haired fox nearly at retirement.
His old eyes glared at the python robe fabric Weisi used,
his breath trembling with fury.
A python robe!
A genuine python robe worn only by princes!
And he used it to wipe shoes?!
Such waste!
Such heresy!
Such blasphemy against luxury!
