Chapter 13: Adorable Success

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After eating and drinking, two middle-aged officials walked out of the restaurant together.

“Let’s go. Let’s go.”

“In the next few days, the two of us will probably have to go out of the capital for a business trip. We have to take this opportunity to have a good time.”

“But my wife…”

The other official looked somewhat afraid.

“Is Sister-in-law alright with it if you don’t go home?”

“Hey, that woman is probably already sleeping with our child.”

The official who suggested going to the brothel waved his hand indifferently.

“When I came out, I told her that this is an official matter. After all, we need to get into our best state, understand?”

The other official seemed to want to go too. Hearing his words, he was immediately tempted.

“Then… When my wife asks, I’ll have to trouble you to help me.”

“Hey, no problem!”

The official who made the suggestion laughed and patted his colleague on the back.

“We’re going to be the last ones to go home tonight! We won’t leave until we’re drunk!”

A smile that all men understood appeared on their faces. As they chuckled in tacit understanding, they walked towards the largest pleasure street in the country. However, at this moment, the corner of an official’s shirt was pulled from behind.

“Who is it?”

The two of them were drunk and somewhat angry. They turned around in confusion and saw a black-haired little boy holding a broken bowl in one hand and pulling the corner of their clothes with the other. He looked up at them timidly.

“Uncle.”

The little boy begged in a somewhat muffled voice,

“Please do me a favor and give me some food. I’m about to starve to death.”

The official who was pulled by the corner of his shirt was already a little drunk and could not think straight for a moment. Seeing that a beggar boy was pulling him away from the pleasure street, he was instantly furious. He immediately pulled back the corner of his shirt and pushed the little boy to the ground as he roared,

“Go away, go away. Where did this little bastard come from? How unlucky!”

However, the other official seemed to be able to maintain a certain level of consciousness. He looked blankly at the little boy sitting on the ground with tears in his eyes and suddenly reached out to pull his colleague.

“Wait, wait, wait. Don’t leave yet. Look at this child. Isn’t he the kind of unwanted street-wandering orphan you mentioned previously?”

“Hmm?”

Hearing his colleague say this, the angry official was also stunned. He burped and stared at the little boy with a red face.

Although this little boy was wearing tattered and patched clothes, and his face and hands and feet were covered in dirt, looking at the shape of his face and facial features, he was a very cute boy.

If he washed the other party and fed him two good meals to replenish his nutrition, it was guaranteed that many high officials and nobles would be willing to adopt him as an adopted son or even a plaything.

Enduring the dizziness, the official shook his head to clear his mind a little. Then, he looked at his colleague.

Then, he squatted down and tried his best to smile kindly. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to the boy on the ground.

“I’m sorry, child. I didn’t see clearly that you were a child. I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

“Wu…”

The little boy kicked his legs and took two steps back timidly before looking at them with terrified eyes.

The official blamed himself in his heart and continued to smile.

“Come with us. We’re officials of the Profound Heaven Country. His Majesty has ordered that in the capital of the Profound Heaven Country, the people have to be well-fed. We won’t leave you on the streets.”

The official smiled and reached out to pull the little boy.

“Let’s go. Uncle will bring you to the royals and treat you to a hot meal.”

“Will… will there be anything to eat?”

The little boy asked timidly.

“Of course. I guarantee you’ll eat until you’re full!”

“And warm clothes and a soft bed. We’ll give you all of them!” The official smiled and said.

“Then, then, I’ll leave with you and Uncle.”

The little boy’s eyes immediately lit up when he heard that. He reached out and grabbed the official’s callused hand.

The official stood up with a smile and looked at his colleague. The two of them smiled at the same time.

“Brother, let’s bring him back to the Consecrator Residence first and let the other consecrators take a look.”

“Yes, yes.”

“After sending him there, we’ll go and have fun.” The other official nodded and said.

The two of them laughed as they stretched out their hands and held the little boy’s hands as they walked in the direction of the Consecrator Residence of the Profound Heaven Country. However, what they did not know was that behind them, the ragged little boy also revealed a meaningful smile.

This little boy was naturally Bai Qiuran.

In his 3,000 years of cultivation, he had dabbled in various divine powers. He had cultivated a few of them to the point of perfection. This divine power that could change one’s body was one of them.

Using this divine power, he could change his body at will. This time, in order to see what was going on behind the scenes, he had transformed into a child.

Usually, boys and girls were the favorite sacrifices of demon cultivators, be it plucking or absorbing souls. Of course, this also included large-scale blood sacrifices.

After following the two officials into the Consecrator Residence, Bai Qiuran was brought to a bathhouse at the side by the two maidservants. They helped him wash off the stains on his body and helped him change into a new set of clothes. Then, they brought him to a small room.

A moment later, someone brought over another table of food. At the same time, they instructed Bai Qiuran to stay where he was and not run around.

After seeing the person leave, Bai Qiuran dealt with the food and released his divine sense to search the residence. Soon, she found the two officials who were reporting to the official. Bai Qiuran also happened to know the person they were reporting to. It was the first-class consecrator, Sima Yingbo, whom he had met once in the Rogue Mountain.

After finding them, Bai Qiuran immediately began to monitor their conversation.

“You did well this time.”

Bai Qiuran heard Sima Yingbo praise the two officials.

“Although it’s only a formality, that boy is talented and has an extraordinary foundation. He’s top-notch in all aspects. With him appearing in the Heaven Worship Ceremony, I believe the late emperor will also be relieved and the fate of the Profound Heaven Country will also be reversed. I’ll report this matter to Master. The two of you have worked hard. Go and receive your rewards.”

“Thank you, Consecrator Sima.”

The two officials cupped their hands and said.

After the two officials left, Sima Yingbo stood on the spot alone and thought for a moment. Then, he walked back to his desk and began to deal with the scrolls on the table.

Bai Qiuran’s divine sense also followed like a shadow, monitoring his every move.
