eunuch

Chapter 142 Five Geniuses

Inside the temple of nourishment.

Emperor Yongxing, who had just arranged the affairs of the Taishang Emperor's body, found that Taiwu King was missing.

After asking around, no one noticed how King Taiwu left.

Emperor Yongxing sighed in his heart, knowing that once Emperor Taishang passed away, King Taiwu might spend even less time in Qianguo in the future.

Just as he was about to leave the Yangshen Hall to convene a group of officials to discuss the funeral of the Supreme Emperor, suddenly a figure came into the hall.

It is Yecheng.

"King Taiwu."

When Emperor Yongxing saw Ye Cheng, he immediately showed joy on his face.

"Your Majesty, I just went out temporarily for something, and Princess Linglong has disappeared."

Ye Cheng said.

"You said Linglong's whereabouts?"

Emperor Yongxing was shocked and stood up quickly, showing joy.

Although he seemed to have accepted the fact that Princess Linglong was missing on the surface, deep down in his heart, he still wanted to find his daughter back all the time.

Especially before the Supreme Emperor died, he was still thinking about Princess Linglong. He knew that his father's biggest regret was not seeing Princess Linglong.

"Yes, I will be away for a while to bring back Princess Linglong, so please forgive me for not being here during the funeral of the Supreme Emperor."

Ye Cheng nodded and said.

"That's great, King Taiwu, thank you so much."

Emperor Yongxing was very excited, "It's a pity, if the father can live a little longer, he can see Princess Linglong."

There was a trace of regret on his face.

"Yes."

Ye Cheng sighed, "The minister will leave first."

As he said that, he turned around and left, and soon disappeared.

When Emperor Yongxing saw the back of King Taiwu leaving, his heart was filled with joy, which washed away the sadness of his father's death. After all, his daughter who had been missing for three years finally found her whereabouts.

He believed that his father had a spirit in heaven, and he would be pleased.

blue sea.

Di Luo Kingdom, Di Qi Island.

Qingyi has been away for more than half a year.

Princess Linglong was so bored that she stayed on the island.

Fortunately, she is not alone, Qing Yi arranged several servants on the island to serve her.

Otherwise, she, who was well-clothed and well-fed since she was a child, would not have the ability to live on a desert island at all.

These servants are all controlled by Qing Yi, so they naturally treat Princess Linglong meticulously.

But Princess Linglong still couldn't bear such a lonely and boring life.

There is nothing here.

Usually there is that lunatic Qingyi nagging by her side, and she still feels very annoying, but now she finds that the most uncomfortable thing is when no one is annoying.

Those servants have never been ignorant of words, no different from eunuchs and maids in the palace, even more timid and boring.

"I'm sure I'm going to die of old age on this island."

Princess Linglong sat on the sea cliff again.

Not once did she think about it, or she would just jump down and die.

But she couldn't muster such courage.

She was even more afraid that Qingyi would come back with the head of King Taiwu.

"It's better not to come back, I'd rather die here."

Princess Linglong picked up a stone and threw it towards the rough waves below.

Didn't even see a wave.

Although outside boats cannot come to this island.

But it's impossible for her to leave.

Unless she becomes a particularly powerful martial artist.

Suddenly, Princess Linglong's eyes widened, because she saw a figure appearing on the distant sea, walking quickly on the water.

Even though the waves are rough, this figure is like walking on flat ground.

Since Princess Linglong is not a warrior, she couldn't see who she was at first, but she became worried.

Could it be that Qingyi is back?
Or are other powerful warriors coming to this island?
The figure on the sea came very fast.

Soon, Princess Linglong could see clearly.

She was shocked, because it was not that lunatic Qingyi, but King Taiwu.

"King Taiwu came to save me?"

Princess Linglong revealed a look of excitement.

Whoosh!
A figure soared into the air, flitting over the steep cliff like walking on flat ground, and soon jumped up the sea cliff, and came to Princess Linglong's side.

Princess Linglong didn't change much except that her skin was a little darker.

Just compared with a few years ago, she has become a very beautiful big girl.

"King Taiwu, you have come to save me, woo woo woo."

Princess Linglong threw herself on Ye Cheng, crying.

It was the first time Ye Cheng was hugged by a woman.

Although he is several generations younger than him, Ye Cheng is still a little awkward.

So without leaving a trace, he used his innate qi to push Princess Linglong away, and then said: "Princess Linglong, I will take you back to Qian Kingdom now."

"King Taiwu, did that Qingyi come to look for you?"

Princess Linglong asked quickly.

"Yes, otherwise how could I find out your whereabouts."

Ye Cheng smiled lightly.

"I knew that King Taiwu was the most powerful, the most powerful man in our country, and this Qingyi is really bragging."

Princess Linglong was very happy.

"Qing Yi is indeed stronger than me."

Ye Cheng smiled lightly.

"Then how did he let you go?"

Princess Linglong asked in surprise.

"Although he is stronger than me, it is easy for me to kill him. This is not a conflict."

Ye Cheng smiled lightly.

"You, you killed him?"

Princess Linglong was taken aback.

"Of course, he wants to kill me, and if he doesn't kill him, he won't tell me your whereabouts."

Ye Cheng said.

"Oh."

Princess Linglong seemed a little disappointed.

Although Qing Yi was a little mentally ill and left her on this island, he treated her quite well.

Now that she died suddenly, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

"Okay, I'll take you out of here."

Ye Cheng said.

"King Taiwu, wait, there are still a few people on the island, and they have been serving me for the past two years."

Princess Linglong said quickly.

Although she has a willful personality, she is still very kind.

Naturally, he couldn't bear to have these servants stay on the island alone.

After all, just like her, they were all captured by Qingyi and brought to this island.

"Then let's go ask them."

Ye Cheng nodded.

So, Ye Cheng grabbed Princess Linglong's shoulder with one hand, and flew towards their place of residence.

The places where they live are all built wooden houses, and the environment is not bad.

Eight people in total.

Three men and five women.

All of them looked honest.

Typical Dillo traits.

"If you want to leave this island, I can take you away."

Ye Cheng said.

"My lord, we all want to stay."

A man who seemed a bit more courageous knelt in front of Ye Cheng and said with expectation on his face.

"Oh? There is nothing on the island, and ships cannot come and go. If you don't leave, you will be trapped here for the rest of your life."

Ye Cheng was a little surprised.

"My lord, we think it's pretty good here, at least we can live freely."

The man said quickly.

They are the lowest level people in Di Luo Kingdom, suffering from oppression.

After the Linglong princess they needed to serve left, they were equivalent to gaining freedom.

It's safe here again, albeit a little more difficult.

But at least it was much better than returning to Di Luo Country.

Ye Cheng looked at the others, and they were all willing to stay.

After all, they have lived here for more than two years and have already adapted to life on the island.

Instead of going back to continue to be oppressed and live a life like a slave, it is better to stay on the island.

Since ships from outside cannot come in, they can almost live a life like a paradise and multiply here.

Ye Cheng didn't force them anymore, so he turned around and left with Princess Linglong.

"King Taiwu, why do they want to stay?"

Princess Linglong was a little puzzled.

"Princess Linglong, you have lived in the palace since you were a child, and you are well-clothed and well-fed. You don't know the sufferings of ordinary people. Their experiences are not what you imagined. Although it is difficult here, at least you can live freely."

Ye Cheng said with a light smile.

Princess Linglong seems to understand but not understand. After all, her identity is destined not to empathize with the situation of the bottom people.

after one day.

With Princess Linglong, Ye Cheng boarded a large ship bound for Donglai Kingdom.

Diluo Kingdom is three to four thousand kilometers away from Donglai Kingdom by land and sea.

It is impossible for Ye Cheng to take Princess Linglong on the road all the time, so it is better to take a sea boat and enjoy the journey.

on a huge ship.

The waves turned upside down.

The sea breeze was raging.

The huge sea boat looks like a flat boat on the sea.

Encountered very bad weather.

However, the captain of this sea-going ship is undoubtedly experienced, manipulating the sea-going ship, shuttling through the sea wind and waves.

Princess Linglong vomited completely.

In the end, leaning against Ye Cheng weakly, he said with difficulty: "King Taiwu, how long do we have to sit?"

This is not the first time she has said this.

"Probably three more days."

Ye Cheng said.

At the beginning, Princess Linglong was very happy to take the sea boat.

But as the wind and waves encountered, the seasickness became more and more serious.

Fortunately, half a day later, the ship finally sailed through the stormy area, and the sea gradually became calm.

Princess Linglong rested for a long time before finally feeling better.

morning.

The sun is in the sky.

The sky was blue with white clouds floating around.

The sea and the sky are the same color, and there is no land at all.

The revived Princess Linglong stood on the deck.

"This sea is really unpredictable. It used to be fierce wind and huge waves, but now it's peaceful again."

Princess Linglong said, "It's better for us to serve the country well, and we don't need to travel by sea."

"In two or three days, you will be able to return to Qianguo Yujing."

Ye Cheng said.

"King Taiwu, do you really not accept disciples?"

Princess Linglong squinted at Ye Cheng, and asked in anticipation.

After getting along with each other for the past few days, she found that King Taiwu was not as arrogant as she imagined, but very peaceful.

"Princess Linglong, if you really want to practice martial arts, I can introduce you to a better master."

Ye Cheng laughed.

"Is there anyone better than you? I don't believe it."

Princess Linglong pouted and said.

"Of course there is, you should know the division of the Grandmaster Realm."

Ye Cheng laughed.

"I know, the virtual image, the external image, the real image. Aren't you, Taiwu King, the Grandmaster of the Real Image Realm?"

Princess Linglong said.

"Haha, above the truth, there is also the Great Master of Astronomical Phenomena. I have a senior sister who is the Great Master of Astronomical Phenomena. I heard from Qing Yi that you are born with a strong soul. I think Senior Sister Yuan Xiang will be willing to accept you as an apprentice."

Ye Cheng laughed.

After all, Princess Linglong is a woman, so it's a bit inconvenient to practice with him.

What's more, he has never had the experience of teaching disciples,

But Senior Sister Yuanxiang is different.

"King Taiwu, you still have a senior sister, do you have a master?"

Princess Linglong's eyes widened, as if a new world had opened up.

"Haha, of course, I have several senior sisters and senior brothers, and the weakest of them is the Great Master of Celestial Phenomena, and I am the weakest one."

Ye Cheng laughed.

"But I still want to worship you as my teacher."

Princess Linglong thought for a while and said.

After all, she is most familiar with King Taiwu.

Moreover, worshiping King Taiwu as her teacher has always been her goal.

"Let's talk about it after you see my senior sister."

Ye Cheng smiled.

He knew that Princess Linglong hadn't seen the real strong, so she had such an idea.

At this moment, a sharp whistle sounded from the ship.

Then, some sailors and guards on the ship showed panic.

"A pirate ship is coming."

"Quick, prepare for a defensive battle."

"Let the warriors among the passengers gather and get ready."

There was a loud yell.

On the sea ship, a frame of crossbows had already begun to be loaded.

For ships operating at sea, it is very normal to encounter pirates.

Of course, the escort capability of such a large sea-going ship is definitely not weak.

Ordinary pirates dare not invade at all.

But if you dare to stare at such a large sea-going ship, you must be strong and have a certain threat.

Soon, the ship became a little chaotic.

Fortunately, the guards and sailors on board have experience in this field. When preparing, they quickly calmed down the emotions of the passengers and singled out all the warriors among the passengers.

Once you can't resist the approach of the pirate ship, you may need to fight hand-to-hand.

"King Taiwu, what are pirates?"

Seeing the messy scene on the deck, Princess Linglong couldn't help asking curiously.

"Just like bandits and thieves on land, there are also pirates at sea, who specialize in hijacking ships."

Ye Cheng said.

With his eyesight, he could see a pirate ship appearing on the sea in the distance, with a skull flag unique to pirates.

The size of this pirate ship is naturally not as good as that of a sea ship, but it is smoother and full of lines, full of strange beauty. It sails through the sea at a much faster speed than a sea ship.

Encountering pirates at sea is basically difficult to get rid of by relying on the speed of sea ships. Only through strong defense capabilities can it be possible to resist pirate attacks.

"Is that a pirate ship?"

As the pirate ship quickly caught up, Princess Linglong finally saw clearly.

"Yes, that's the pirate ship."

Ye Cheng nodded and said.

As the pirate ship approached, the flags on the big ship communicated, hoping to make the pirate ship retreat.

But there was a roar of wild laughter from the pirate ship, "Hahaha, it's your Haiming faction's ship that was robbed."

Can't communicate.

The next thing is to fight.

Defensive weapons such as crossbows on large ships began to be used.

After the two sides exchanged fire in the air, the casualties were not large.

The pirate ship finally approached the big ship, and the hand-to-hand combat began.

A series of highly skilled pirates, led by three innate bosses, rose from the pirate ship one after another and rushed towards the sea ship.

Although a few unlucky ghosts were shot by the crossbow and fell into the sea, a large number of pirates had already broken through the line of defense.

"King Taiwu, don't you want to make a move?"

Princess Linglong, who was tightly protected by Ye Cheng, asked quickly when she saw the scene of fighting in front of her.

"I don't need to take action, there is a grandmaster on this boat."

Ye Cheng shook his head and said.

If he can't do it, he won't do it at will.

What's more, the big ship was clearly prepared.

Ye Cheng still has a little impression of the Haiming Sect in Donglai Kingdom. Back then, the master of the Haiming Sect had a great reputation.

It's just that with the emergence of the appearance master, his fame has gradually been covered up.

Just like in the current Qianguo, those grand masters of phantom were famous, but now their reputation is not as good as before.

The main reason is that there are powerful masters like Patriarch Biyou and Ye Cheng, which completely obscured their brilliance.

The master he sensed on the ship, naturally, could not be false, but much younger, probably the master of Donglai Kingdom who appeared in the past few decades.

In the past 30 to [-] years, new grandmasters have been born one after another in the Qian Kingdom, Qinglan Kingdom, Donglai Kingdom, and Yunhao Kingdom.

"You obviously make a move, it's just a matter of a while."

Princess Linglong didn't quite understand.

"Hehe, there are too many disputes in this world. If I have to fight when I encounter them, then I won't be exhausted."

Ye Cheng smiled lightly.

"Shouldn't it be like this? Being chivalrous and righteous, doing justice for the heavens, eliminating violence and bringing peace to the good... Shouldn't that be what you martial arts experts should do?"

Princess Linglong was surprised.

"Maybe."

Ye Cheng smiled. For Princess Linglong, who has never experienced any hardships since she was a child, and has read some chivalrous novels, do you really think that these are what martial arts practitioners should do?

But they don't know that martial arts practitioners don't use force to do evil.

There are so many chivalrous heroes in the world.

There must be some, but after all, it is a minority.

Moreover, there are too many sufferings in the world, which cannot be eliminated at all. As long as there are people, disputes will inevitably exist.

Even in a world without martial arts, there are still too many injustices and chaos.

Sure enough, when the ship was at a disadvantage and was in danger, the hidden master on the ship finally made a move. With the radiation of martial arts, those few innate pirate leaders all showed signs of panic.

No matter how powerful the pirate group is, there is no master.

If you really want to become a master, you don't need to be a pirate at all, you can establish a large foundation in any country.

These pirates couldn't figure out why there was a grandmaster who happened to be on the sea ship?
In this way, the sea ship that was in danger was resolved in an instant with the master's action.

The pirates were all left behind.

Not even the pirate ship got away.

The grandmaster jumped onto the pirate ship and eliminated the rest of the pirates with three strikes, and then the pirates were controlled by the people on the ship.

"Look, if I don't make a move, will it be solved?"

Ye Cheng smiled lightly.

"King Taiwu, if you make a move, you should be the one receiving worship and respect now."

Princess Linglong said.

In her opinion, isn't the greatest joy of being a chivalrous hero, not the gratitude of those who are saved?
Ye Cheng smiled.

At his level, he no longer has such thoughts.

Everything will start from actual interests, not these so-called vanity.

after one day.

The big ship finally arrived at Dawan Port in Donglai Kingdom.

Dawan Port is actually only tens of kilometers away from Dagang City, the capital of Donglai Kingdom.

A large number of sea ships will come in and out here.

Ye Cheng took Princess Linglong to visit Dawan City for a day, and returned to Qian Kingdom the next day.

The reason for playing for a day is naturally that Princess Linglong was attracted by the bustling Dawan City and begged to stay for a day.

Ye Cheng could only agree.

After all, the Supreme Emperor is probably already buried.

He hasn't told Princess Linglong about the death of the Supreme Emperor, otherwise she must not be in the mood to spend a day in Dawan City.

Two days later.

Ye Cheng finally returned to Yujing with Princess Linglong.

"Hey, King Taiwu, why is Yujing hanging white everywhere?"

Princess Linglong was very curious when she saw white plains hung in every house on the street.

Ye Cheng is also a little strange, he originally thought that the Supreme Emperor should have been buried, but now it seems that he has not, otherwise these white onyxes will definitely be taken away.

"You'll find out soon enough."

Ye Cheng said.

Princess Linglong immediately understood that the only way for the entire Yujing to be hung with white onyx is because someone in the palace died.

"Prince Taiwu, is that the emperor's grandfather?"

Her eyes became moist all of a sudden.

When she was taken away by Qingyi, Grandpa Huang was not in good health.

"Yes."

Ye Cheng said softly.

"King Taiwu, why didn't you tell me earlier, I have been playing in Dawan City all day."

Princess Linglong blamed herself a little.

"Come back one day earlier and come back one day later, what's the difference?"

Ye Cheng sighed, "On the day the Supreme Emperor passed away, I just got your whereabouts, and he didn't even wait for the news."

Ten minutes later, Ye Cheng brought Princess Linglong back to the palace.

When Yongxing Emperor Su Cheng saw his daughter, he was ecstatic. Even though he was usually very serious in front of other people, he couldn't help but his eyes turned red at this moment, and hugged his daughter tightly.

"Father, grandpa."

Princess Linglong's tears rolled down her cheeks like pearls.

"Linglong, go and see Grandpa Huang for the last time."

Emperor Yongxing said with a sigh.

The reason why the Supreme Emperor has not been buried until now is to wait for Princess Linglong to come back and see the Supreme Emperor for the last time.

Ye Cheng didn't follow.

after one day.

The Supreme Emperor, who had been inactive for a while, was finally buried.

On this day, Yujing City was empty of thousands of people, and countless people knelt on the street to see off the hearse of the Supreme Emperor.

For countless people in the Qian Kingdom, Emperor Chengkang is the most worthy of their love and admiration. He is kind, generous, diligent, and loves the people. During his reign, he made many contributions that benefited the people.

Inside the palace.

With the burial of the Supreme Emperor, it returned to normal.

"King Taiwu, you, you want to take Linglong as your apprentice?"

When Emperor Yongxing Su Cheng heard that Ye Cheng was going to take Princess Linglong away, his face immediately beamed with joy.

"Your Majesty, I have a senior sister with a higher level of cultivation than me. Linglong has a good talent in martial arts. I plan to ask my senior sister to accept Linglong as an apprentice."

Ye Cheng didn't hide anything, and said immediately.

"Prince Taiwu, of course I will not object, this is Linglong's opportunity."

Emperor Yongxing said quickly.

Although he didn't know when a senior sister would appear in King Taiwu, he also knew that King Taiwu had been away all these years, so there must be some chance.

However, it is also a good choice for Linglong to worship King Taiwu's senior sister as her teacher.

Not long after, Princess Linglong, whose eyes were swollen from crying, walked in.

"Father, King Taiwu."

Princess Linglong is in poor spirits.

After all, Grandpa Huang passed away, which was a bit of a blow to her.

This is the first time she has experienced the loss of a loved one.

Emperor Yongxing told Princess Linglong that King Taiwu wanted to take her away from the country.

"King Taiwu, do you have to leave Qianguo Yujing?"

Princess Linglong asked.

She had just returned to Yujing, returned to the palace, and had just spent a few days with her father, queen, and empress, she was a little bit reluctant.

"Correct."

Ye Cheng nodded.

"Linglong, when you succeed in cultivation, you can come back and visit us."

Emperor Yongxing said quickly.

He hoped that his daughter would take advantage of this opportunity.

Although Princess Linglong was reluctant, she also knew that the opportunity was rare, so she could only nod her head.

"Princess Linglong, I will pick you up in a day."

Ye Cheng got up and said.

One day later, Ye Cheng took the reluctant Princess Linglong and left the palace, Yujing, and Qianguo.

A few days later, he brought Princess Linglong back to the wooden house in Changqinghai.

Senior Sister Yuanxiang is already waiting here.

Ye Cheng had already used the boundary card and contacted Senior Sister Yuanxiang.

"Junior Brother Ye, is this little princess really powerful?"

Senior Sister Yuanxiang asked curiously.

"Senior sister, you will know if you check it."

Ye Cheng laughed.

"That's right, but I'd better take her to see Father."

Senior Sister Yuanxiang thinks about it too.

If this Princess Linglong is really powerful, it is not impossible for her to accept her as a disciple.

So, she took Princess Linglong and flew down into the cave of Invincible sitting on the huge Cang Jun.

Princess Linglong was at a loss from beginning to end.

Half an hour later, Senior Sister Yuanxiang brought Princess Linglong up again.

"Father has checked this little princess, and she is really powerful. Although she is only a genius, it is worth cultivating."

Senior Sister Yuanxiang showed a smile on her face.

"Senior sister, how is this genius level divided?"

Ye Cheng asked curiously.

"There are five grades in total. If it is the highest grade five geniuses, it is almost no worse than Tianjiao. It is too rare for a genius who does not know this grade. Tsk tsk, Miss Qingkong, they are all only grade three geniuses."

Senior Sister Yuanxiang said.

"Senior, what level of genius is King Taiwu?"

Princess Linglong couldn't help asking.

"Haha, you're talking about Junior Brother Ye, right? He's a Tianjiao-level martial arts seed, comparable to a fifth-grade genius."

Senior Sister Yuanxiang said with a smile.

Princess Linglong's eyes widened.

Is King Taiwu so powerful?

"Senior Sister, I will leave Linglong to you."

Ye Cheng smiled and said.

"I can't do it now. I still have to go on patrol, and I can't teach her with her. How about this? I'll take her as a disciple first, and you can help me teach her."

Senior Sister Yuanxiang thought for a while and said.

"Ah? Sister, this is not good."

Ye Cheng was shocked.

If so, you might as well take it yourself.

"What's wrong, you know, time is tight now, I can't relax, if there is a mistake, it will be troublesome."

Senior Sister Yuanxiang said.

"Ok."

Ye Cheng thinks about it too.

After all, the maintenance time of the Boundary Array is approaching, and the demonic rebels outside have been trying to infiltrate it. At this time, we must not relax our vigilance.

Next, Princess Linglong simply worshiped Senior Sister Yuanxiang as her teacher.

Then Senior Sister Yuanxiang left.

The matter of passing on martial arts was left to Ye Cheng.
