“Look, look, you’re eyeing the Imperial Mausoleum again, and using Xiao Mo as an excuse to fool us.”
“Xiao Li is doing great in Human City, even singing little tunes as he takes the throne. He’s on the rise, so what could possibly be wrong?”
“Hmm, she’s definitely trying to trick us. Let’s eat hotpot, hotpot...”
Knowing Shang Wu’s tendencies well, the Elders quickly recovered their composure after their initial shock.
They all started eating hotpot as if nothing had happened.
Crash—
The table was kicked over by Shang Wu.
“My beef!” Qian Bufan cried out in anguish, standing up and about to point his chopsticks at Shang Wu.
“This Princess... is not joking with you.”
Hearing Shang Wu’s self-address, Qian Bufan honestly sat back down.
Shang Wu had never been this serious before.
Normally, she was a bit wild, but even when punished by the Sect Master, though she wouldn’t admit defeat, she never used her status to pressure others, nor did she ever consider herself... Everyone exchanged glances, recalling that afternoon many years ago.
At that time, Qunyu Peak was not yet one of the Nine Peaks, but rather a place within the sect similar to a cultivation Holy Land, with numerous divine statues serving as excellent God-Observing Pictures.
The Grand Elder was not yet guarding the ancestral hall, but instead watching over the stone statues on Qunyu Peak.
That day, he brought out a coffin from Qunyu Peak, made of petrified submerged yin soul nurturing wood, and inside the coffin was Shang Wu.
It took them a long time to make her believe that Great Shang no longer existed, and now it was the era of Great Yu.
Gradually, Shang Wu became less and less like a princess; it seemed that over the years, she had long forgotten her identity.
This was the first time she had spoken in the tone of a Great Shang Princess.
If Shang Wu became reliable, it meant the situation was critical.
“What you said, is it true?”
Shangguan Wencang’s expression darkened: “What exactly happened?”
After all, Qingyuan Sect was far from Dijin.
The latest news they received was that Xiao Li had become emperor.
Hearing this, Shang Wu took a deep breath:
“He picked up the Celestial Human Divine Sword, but the God Sword had a trap left by the Demon Summoning Sect’s Ancestral God. The Great Yu Imperial Clan must have also intervened. In the end, if it weren’t for my Baby Disciple standing tall and Yinger refining the Human City realm, that world would have been destroyed before then.”
Hearing this, question marks popped up one after another above the Elders’ heads. freёweɓnovel.com
The Heavenly Human Trial had occurred so many times; how could the world within the jiangshan sheji map be so easily destroyed?
And why would the Great Yu Imperial Clan intervene?
“What does it mean that Xiao Mo stood tall?” Xue Jing had a bad premonition.
“Literally.”
“??”
“Xiao Mo does have a secret art that can make his body grow larger...”
Xue Jing muttered to himself.
He looked towards Shang Qinqing with an inquiring gaze, but the Qingluan Clan Chief also nodded slightly, indicating that Shang Wu’s words were not exaggerated.
The Elders fell silent.
Once upon a time, Li Mo had just joined Qingyuan Sect, practicing the introductory Six Harmonies Fist. At that time, he was new to martial arts, and the Elders were still discussing what path he should take in the future.
How long has it been? He is already shouldering the sun and moon, writing his own myth.
And he paid a price for it.
As his teachers, they seemed unable to help him anymore... He had already forged his own path. freёwebnoѵel.com
“Xiao Mo’s Inner Scenery is enough for him to recreate an inner world, but the conditions for its condensation are harsh, and the power of sentient beings required cannot be slowly gathered and refined over time.”
Shang Qinqing said in a deep voice.
“With the opening of the Imperial Mausoleum, who knows what new variables will arise.”
Shangguan Wencang sighed softly and looked at Shang Wu:
“But ultimately, you are the most qualified person to make this decision.”
“The things beneath the Imperial Mausoleum will eventually see the light of day.”
Shang Wu faced the direction of Qunyu Peak, her eyes filled with ancient sorrow:
“Since someone has long been eyeing it, why don’t we open it ourselves?”
Seeing all the Elders nod in agreement, Shang Qinqing walked out of the hall and flew into the sky again... If not for the Somersault Cloud, in terms of long-distance travel, Shang Qinqing would probably be the best in the world.
Traveling through the Void Realm, she landed in Wanchun Court again in the evening.
“You’re back?” Qin Yuzhi was waiting outside the door; this was probably the tacit understanding of the shipping enthusiasts.
“Yes, I’m taking Yinger and Xiao Mo back to Qingyuan Sect.”
Shang Qinqing nodded and pushed open the door in front of her.
As soon as she entered, she saw a figure bending low, lying on Li Mo, like a aloof cat secretly eating.
Oh, it didn’t seem like stealing food, but rather feeding.
There was hot water on the charcoal basin, and a bowl of medicinal soup was placed by the bedside, emitting a peculiar fragrance. It should have been a Medicinal Pill dissolved in hot water to form a medicinal liquid... and someone had drunk from it.
Xiao Li was lying on the sickbed, clearly not having drunk it voluntarily.
Shang Qinqing: “!”
Qin Yuzhi: “!”
Both instantly held their breath.
It was worth all their worry; wasn’t this unexpected gain right here!
It must be said, the scene before them was peaceful and beautiful. If there were no urgent matters, they truly wished it could continue like this forever.
But Ying Bing heard the sound of the door opening. She silently got up, tucked her hair behind her ear, looking serious as if nothing had happened, but her crystal-clear earlobes were already crimson.
Ying Bing softly said: “He was injured, so...”
“Mm-hmm, I know, this is all to help him recover sooner, it’s normal care.”
Shang Qinqing said, but then suddenly wondered: “But aren’t his teeth clenched quite tightly?”
“No time to lose, let’s depart quickly.”
“I still have a question, if he needs to go to the bathroom...”
Ying Bing’s eyes trembled. Pretending not to hear, she once again stabilized his injuries with her Inner Scenery, then gently carried Li Mo on her back... Imperial Study.
“Your Majesty, the Qingluan Clan Chief has already left Dijin with Li Mo and Ying Bing.”
The Sky Patrol Guard, wearing a light silver mask, was kneeling on the ground, reporting in a hoarse voice.
“It seems they plan to use the national fortune from the Shang Mausoleum.” Jingtai Emperor, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them.
“It also saves me the headache of whether or not to grant him a noble title. The national fortune of Great Shang is, after all, not as troublesome as that of Great Yu.”
He had actually already written the imperial decree, bestowing a noble title upon Li Mo.
A noble title could share in varying degrees of national fortune and blessings, but this was a last resort.
The Sky Patrol Guard then asked in a low voice:
“Should we send more people to keep an eye on Li Mo?”
“No need.”
Jingtai Emperor shook his head.
Others who bore national fortune might lose themselves, but he believed that young man would not.
“Call the Grand Companion in.”
“Yes.”
Soon after, the purple-robed eunuch bowed and entered the Imperial Study.
Jingtai instructed:
“Draft an imperial decree: Jiang Yu, for being overly ambitious and, as a member of the imperial family, losing imperial decorum, is to be confined to Mingling Mansion for one year of reflection.”
“Chu Ge, for her poor guidance and ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) restless mind, is ordered to recite Buddhist scriptures and copy them a hundred times at Treasure Pagoda Temple.”
“The Great Yu Imperial Clan, for dereliction of duty in guarding the jiangshan sheji map, allowing Demon Summoning Sect members to take advantage of the void, is fined five hundred mu of fiefdom and ten properties.”
“Li Mo, a hero in his youth, and Han Xianzi are a match made in heaven. I, in my magnanimity... will personally arrange their union.”
