Ten Tailed Fox

Chapter 1998 Divine Jade Palace

"You said her life is in danger?" Su Bujin's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he immediately walked forward. His sharp eyes stared directly at Yang Lan, making him shiver.

Yang Lan was frightened by Su Bujin's eyes, but he could also see a hint of nervousness on Su Bujin's face. It seemed that this Yiren Shuiqin should be someone very important to Su Bujin.

"Tell me about it in detail." Su Bujin asked, with a hint of anxiety in his tone.

Seeing that there was a play, Yang Lan immediately said, "In fact, I only learned this news a few days ago. At that time, Mi Si's condition was getting worse and worse. He only had one breath left. I had no choice but to sneak into the Divine Jade Palace and steal the Divine Jade Juice."

"But the Divine Jade Palace is so heavily guarded, the Divine Jade Juice is naturally guarded even more tightly. It is even possible that the Palace Master of the Divine Jade Palace is personally guarding it. You must know that the Palace Master of the Divine Jade Palace is a powerful half-step Immortal King!"

"Things really didn't go smoothly at all. I was discovered right after I sneaked in. Fortunately, I ran fast and escaped."

"Although I didn't get the Divine Jade Juice, I heard a piece of news. It is said that the Divine Jade Palace has selected a new princess, named Yiren Shuiqin, who seems to be from the Qiyuan Realm."

Yiren Shuiqin was chosen as the princess of the Divine Jade Palace?

This news surprised Su Bujin.

The princess, the future heir to the position of Lord of the Divine Jade Palace, is qualified to receive the baptism of the Jade King and obtain great opportunities.

There had been two princesses in the Divine Jade Palace before.

One is Cui Jing's wife An Zhi, but unfortunately, she was killed in the hunting world by Ye Kongquan's subordinate, Jia You of the Thousand Faces Clan.

The second princess is Mi Si. Mi Si’s cultivation is better than An Zhi. Although she has not awakened the body of the Jade King, she also has extraordinary talent and is highly valued by the Divine Jade Palace.

But now, this princess is considered useless.

From this point of view, it is reasonable for the Divine Jade Palace to choose a new princess, but this person turned out to be Yiren Shuiqin, which is a bit strange.

Let's not talk about Yiren Shuiqin's qualifications. How can a person from Qiyuan Realm become the princess of Shenyu Palace? This doesn't make sense at all. After all, Yiren Shuiqin and Shenyu Palace have nothing to do with each other.

"Is there something fishy about this?" Su Bujin narrowed his eyes slightly.

Yang Lan paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, you are smarter than I thought. If you think it is a good thing for her to become a princess, you are totally wrong."

"In the eyes of outsiders, the princess of the Divine Jade Palace is indeed the candidate for the future Palace Master of the Divine Jade Palace, but the candidate for the princess of the Divine Jade Palace has never been just one."

Su Bujin asked, "Is the competition for the princess fierce?"

Yang Lan shook her head and said, "There is no need for competition, because most of the princesses will die, and the Divine Jade Palace will inexplicably have more Divine Jade Juice."

  Now that things have come to this, how could Su Bujin still not understand?

A gleam of light flashed in her eyes as she said, "You mean that the Divine Jade Palace will secretly kill the princesses and refine them to obtain the Divine Jade Juice." If this is true, it will definitely be explosive news!

Yang Lan said, "In fact, most princesses died young during their training, but some died in strange ways. Although I don't have any evidence, I guess it's probably true. The Divine Jade Palace is a place that recruits female immortals from all over the world to practice, but its methods behind the scenes are very dark."

Su Bujin asked: "Do you have any basis for this speculation?"

Yang Lan said: "A family does not look at origins, the threshold is not high, and it is a force with strong inclusiveness, but it can never grow bigger. Guess why, because many female fairies who joined died. How else can it be explained?"

"Then you wouldn't attack the princess, would you?" Su Bujin raised his eyebrows, not understanding. "Even if they did whatever it took to get the Divine Jade Juice, they could have picked a female fairy with mediocre talent. The princess is one in a million. Why don't they vigorously train such an outstanding person, but kill her instead? Isn't this destroying the future of the Divine Jade Palace?"

Yang Lan said, "I heard my foster father mention it before. There may be one princess in each generation, or more princesses. They are all in the open, but the real successor to the Palace Master is often hidden in the dark. As the saying goes, a tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. This is the truth."

"The Palace Master of the Divine Jade Palace was also an unknown existence back then. Before she was promoted to Palace Master, most people in the universe had never even heard of her name."

"The princesses in public died one after another, but the people chosen in secret were able to survive and successfully inherit the position of Palace Master. I have to say that the Divine Jade Palace's methods are still very clever."

Su Bujin discovered something suspicious and couldn't help asking, "Didn't the princesses notice this kind of thing? So many people died in each generation, even a pig would be able to notice something was wrong, right? Why has the Divine Jade Palace been passed down to this day?"

Yang Lan sighed and said, "I thought you knew this better than me. The root of the problem is just two words: female fairy."

"If a male immortal doesn't usually interact with others, he naturally won't run into any disputes. But female immortals are different, especially those with outstanding talents and outstanding looks. Even a gentleman will be tempted to make a move when he sees them, not to mention those extremely treacherous and evildoers. Who wouldn't want to have a taste of their beauty?"

"Looking across the heavens, who wouldn't want to take the female fairies of the Divine Jade Palace as their own? There are too many wolves and too little meat, and countless burning eyes are staring at the Divine Jade Palace, so the original intention of establishing the Divine Jade Palace was to provide a shelter for the female fairies."

"To this day, the people of the Divine Jade Palace are alone outside and must be extremely careful and cautious, otherwise they will end up in a miserable situation."

After hearing this, Su Bujin instantly understood the reason, touched his chin and said, "It seems that if the Divine Jade Palace wants to stand firmly in the heavens, it should be far from enough to rely solely on its own strength."

Yang Lan nodded and said, "That's right, but the Divine Jade Palace is not dependent on any one power. It has many female fairies under its tutelage, so it will form marriage alliances with many well-known and powerful forces in the heavens. Mi Si and I are the tools for the Divine Jade Palace to form a marriage alliance with the Famu Realm."

"I understand. Cast a wide net and catch more fish." Su Bujin smiled. "That's a solution, but this kind of marriage probably goes against the original intention of the Divine Jade Palace. It was originally intended to protect the female fairy, but now they want to use the female fairy as a bargaining chip in exchange for stability. It's really ridiculous."

Yang Lan retorted: "You can't blame them. Not everyone is like you, with good talents and good luck."

What Yang Lan said does make some sense. Many things are beyond our control and are forced by fate.

Not everyone is Su Bujin.

"Let's get back to the topic. What you mean is that Shui Qin will become a sacrifice and be refined into Divine Jade Juice by the Divine Jade Palace?" Su Bujin asked with a frown.
