The Human Emperor (1-200)

C177: Wang Chong is Released! (2)

After escaping from the clutches of Cousin Wang Zhu Yan, the carriage traveled amidst the crowd’s cheering from the gates of the royal palace to the Wang Family Residence.

At this very moment, the person that Wang Chong desired to meet the most was his mother. Back then, when he wrote the memorial to the Sage Emperor, he acted on his own whim. He failed to inform his mother about it, and given the huge mess he had gotten himself into, it was hard to imagine how worried his mother was.

His mother had probably suffered great agony in the past three months.

Even though Wang Chong didn’t see his mother amidst the cheering crowd, he knew that it was not because she was unconcerned but that it was inappropriate for her to do so given her position.

“Third brother, you’re back!”

As soon as Wang Chong alighted from his carriage, a small girl’s eyes lit up. She dashed forward and pounced into Wang Chong’s embrace. The immense force in her movements caused Wang Chong to stagger, and he nearly tumbled over despite driving his Origin Energy to withstand off the impact.

“Little sister, seems like you have grown stronger!”

Hugging his younger sister, Wang Chong smiled bitterly.

He had been working diligently during this period of time, training whenever he could, thus inducing an significant growth in his cultivation.

However, it seemed like his younger sister hadn’t been slacking either. Most cultivated by putting their bodies through great torture, but Wang Xiao Yao did so through eating.

There was probably no one else other than his younger sister who could render him helpless with just brute strength.

“Third brother, you aren’t allowed to mock me. Otherwise, I’m going to get angry!”

Wang Family’s little sister lifted her gaze and stared at Wang Chong furiously. ‘Killing intent’ raged within her little eyes.

Wang Chong burst into laughter, but he didn’t dare to say anything.

His little sister might be innocent, but she was a force to be reckoned with when she flew into a rage. Even with Wang Chong’s current strength, he might not necessarily be a match for her.

After parting with little sister, Wang Chong went to greet his mother before looking for Shen Hai, Meng Long, Arloja, Ablonodan, Tuoba Guiyuan, Li Zhuxin, and Miyasame Ayaka.

“Master, welcome back.”

This was Miyasame Ayaka.

“Hehe, I thought you weren’t going to return.”

This was Li Zhuxin.

Toward Miyasame Ayaka, Wang Chong smiled in appreciation. But toward Li Zhuxin, Wang Chong could only roll his eyes.

“Mister Li, aren’t you afraid of not having any pay for the next month?”

“Haha, that’s true. There aren’t many wealthy employers like gongzi around.”

Li Zhuxin chuckled.

Even though they were interacting as per normal, Wang Chong could sense that everyone’s attitude was a little different.

However, this didn’t impede their intimacy.

On top of that, Wang Chong had also received a huge pile of letters from Han generals all over Great Tang.

Everyone knew when Wang Chong was going to be released, and they calculated the timing to send the letters over precisely. Other than congratulating Wang Chong on his release, they also extended an invitation to him to join their army.
