"Are you willing to join me?"
Regarding this talented little guy in front of him, Shen Ruge felt that he would never give up even if it was for the future of Tianjian Sect.
But Gu Ping didn't expect that the uncle she met for the first time would accept her as her disciple. She immediately looked at her mother at a loss, hoping to get a sincere answer from her.
Seeing his daughter looking at him, Murong Jianqiu just smiled lightly and said: "Ping'er, it's up to you to decide this matter. Are you willing to stay in Tianjian Sect to practice swordsmanship?"
Without waiting for Gu Ping to answer, Gu An heard her mother's words: "I am willing, I am willing, mother, I am willing to stay..."
Murong Jianqiu frowned. Of course she knew what this little guy had in mind when he wanted to stay. She glared and said, "You have nothing to do here. Just go and practice well."
Gu An, who had always been afraid of his mother, naturally did not dare to say anything when he saw this, and quickly ran to the side.
After Gu An walked far away, Murong Jianqiu said to his daughter again: "Ping'er, your talent is indeed suitable for practicing swordsmanship. Now your master and uncle want to take you in, are you willing?"
Shen Ruge also knelt down and said with a gentle face: "Ping'er, don't worry, as long as you agree to be my disciple, my uncle will definitely teach you everything he can. With your talent, you can graduate in ten years at most." , when the time comes, you will definitely become a peerless master."
As for Gu Ping, even though everyone was indifferent to her and others when she first came here, the great uncle in front of her has always been very kind to her.
Moreover, she also knew that her mother was born in the Tianjian Sect, but it was a pity that another great uncle was not in the sect at this time.
Seeing the expectant look in the eyes of the master-uncle in front of her, Gu Ping hesitated slightly and finally nodded in agreement.
……
At this time, Gu Cheng didn't know that his daughter had become a disciple of the Tianjian Sect. After traveling for several days with Huang Yunqing, the two finally arrived outside the imperial capital.
Looking at the tall and majestic Imperial City, Gu Cheng felt mixed emotions.
Along the way, he passed through many prefectures and counties, but he did not stop, but kept on going, in order to return to Daxia as soon as possible.
But when he really returned to Daxia and stood outside the imperial capital, he stopped.
The scene of the battle that year suddenly appeared in his mind again.
Although he knew that Xia Wuyou's last palm was not intended to target him, the result was that he almost died.
If it weren't for Qiu Ninglu who took him on a journey of thousands of miles and risked his life to the Dragon Palace in the West Sea, I'm afraid he would have really died.
Therefore, in the past ten years, he has been thinking about how to face Xia Wuyou, his old friend, all the time.
"What's wrong with you? Why don't you leave?"
A sudden voice beside him interrupted his memories and contemplation of past events for an instant.
Gu Cheng looked back at Huang Yunqing, who was wrapping him tightly behind him, shook his head slightly and said, "It's nothing, I just remembered some past events and felt a little emotional."
Huang Yunqing ignored Gu Cheng's emotion at this time, looked in the direction of the imperial city and asked, "What should we do now? Do you want to enter the palace with me? Or should we go into the city first to understand the situation?"
Gu Cheng followed Huang Yunqing's gaze and glanced at the palace in the distance. After thinking for a while, he said, "Let's go and have a look at the palace first. As for the rest, wait until I come out."
After the two determined their target, they walked towards the city together.
……
In the palace, Xia Wuyou looked at the various memorials placed on the table with a tired look, feeling helpless.
Ever since Murong Jianqiu resigned from the position of national master and left the palace, the entire affairs of Shengxian Palace fell on her.
What's even more helpless is that she has no way to find a suitable and trustworthy person to handle this kind of matter, so she can only do it herself.
In addition, in the past few days, there were more and more voices in the dynasty admonishing her to leave an heir early, which made her even more unintentionally annoyed.
With a slight sigh in his heart, Xia Wuyou stood up and walked outside the main hall. Looking at the endless sky, he felt for the first time in his life how difficult life was.
In addition to these simple things, there was a more puzzling question in her mind at this time.
That is, the ten-year period has arrived, but the words spoken by the third princess of the East China Sea Dragon Palace still seem to have no warning.
She didn't know whether the eight-character motto left by the first emperor was true or false, but out of trust in the creatures in this world, she could only take it seriously.
However, sometimes she also wonders, if she had not chosen to inherit the throne, would she be in a different situation now?
That day, when she learned that the two children were the children of Murong Jianqiu and Gu Cheng, she had mixed emotions in her heart.
If he had not left the Gate of Immortality but continued to practice, maybe the situation would have been different.
But after the battle outside the imperial capital ten years ago, this question has been postponed indefinitely. Maybe there is no answer?
Just when Xia Wuyou was lost in memories of the past, a hurried shout came from the distance of the Human Emperor's Palace: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Xia Wuyou, who was awakened, raised his head and looked towards where the sound came from, and saw a palace guard running and shouting something loudly.
Seeing this scene, Xia Wuyou felt relieved, thinking that something big had happened. He quickly came to the guard and asked, "You are so impatient, but what happened?"
The guard who was running quickly this way was startled when he saw Her Majesty the Queen suddenly appearing in front of him. However, after hearing her question, he knelt down on one knee and said without caring about the others: "Reply to Your Majesty." , the Queen Mother walked out of Fengyi Hall and is waiting outside Fengyi Hall, sending a special person to convey the message."
For a moment, Xia Wuyou even thought that he was hearing hallucinations. He could no longer keep calm and couldn't help but exclaimed: "What? What did you say? The Queen Mother actually appeared outside Fengyi Palace?"
The leader of the guards had never seen Her Majesty the Queen in front of her act so rude. How could she dare to show off at this time? He quickly told what he had seen and said: "Yes, just now, the Queen Mother suddenly Appeared outside Fengyi Palace, and then sent a villain to invite you over, saying that he had something important to tell you. This villain..."
The guard leader who came to report had just finished speaking when he felt a cold wind blowing around him.
When he looked up, where was Her Majesty the Queen anywhere?
Without any time to think about it, he looked at the black shadow flying towards Fengyi Hall in the distance, and he quickly followed it.
……
Fengyi Palace is the most magnificent and extravagant palace in the entire imperial palace, except for the Human Emperor Palace. It was originally the residence of the queens of the past dynasties.
But since the death of the late emperor, the empress Huang Yunqing has lived here for a long time.
On weekdays, I can hardly leave the house.
However, since the Sun and Moon Sect attempted to rebel ten years ago and implicated the Queen Mother, the entire Fengyi Palace became a trapped place for the Queen Mother.
The Queen personally ordered that no one is allowed to approach Fengyi Palace, and anyone who disobeys the order will be killed! Actually, this is just what is declared to the outside world.
The real purpose was to conceal the truth about Huang Yunqing's departure from the palace, so as not to arouse wild speculation by others.
Therefore, the leader of the guards who came to report the news naturally did not know why the Queen Mother was so excited just by appearing outside Fengyi Hall.
Standing outside Fengyi Palace, looking at the slightly ajar palace door, Xia Wuyou waved his hand to signal the guards around him to step back, and then slowly stopped outside the main hall.
At this moment, she was extremely excited.
Ten years ago, she sent Huang Yunqing out of Daxia to find Gu Cheng according to the future he predicted.
At that time, she thought that she would be able to wait for the news in just a few months at most.
Whether that news was good or bad, it was a consequence for her.
But what she never expected was that not only did she not wait for news about Gu Cheng, Huang Yunqing himself also disappeared as if he had evaporated.
And just when she thought that Huang Yunqing and Gu Cheng disappeared together and would never appear again, she got news of Huang Yunqing's appearance again.
She didn't care too much whether Huang Yunqing was alive or not, but what she cared about was the news he brought to her.
After much hesitation, she finally couldn't help but push open the slightly closed door of Fengyi Palace.
Then, she saw the female figure standing with her back to her.
And as the half-opened door of Fengyi Palace made a series of sounds, the female figure who had been facing away from Xia Wuyou finally turned around.
Their eyes met, and both of them confirmed each other's identities.
Xia Wuyou took a deep breath, looked at the woman in yellow who had changed a lot in front of him, and said, "Huang Yunqing, ten years have passed, and you are finally back alive!"
On the other side, seeing Xia Wuyou's appearance, Huang Yunqing felt a lot in his heart. He couldn't help but sigh: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. However, I have experienced a life of nine deaths and almost never come back alive to see Your Majesty again." .”
However, facing Huang Yunqing's touching words, Xia Wuyou had no intention of meeting regularly at this time.
After confirming that the person in front of her was Huang Yunqing, she immediately asked directly: "Stop talking nonsense, I asked you to find Gu Cheng. Now that you are back, where are the others?"
Huang Yunqing shook his head slightly, seemingly dissatisfied with the attitude of the queen in front of him.
But soon, as if she thought of something, she immediately regained her composure and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story, and there are many secrets that are not enough for outsiders to know. Do you think..."
Xia Wuyou looked in the direction of Huang Yunqing's finger and found that it was pointing to the half-open palace door behind him.
Although he was eager to know the news about Gu Cheng, he also knew that what he said had some truth.
Without thinking much, she moved her palm slightly, and the heavy door of Fengyi Palace was closed by an invisible force.
The entire hall suddenly fell into darkness.
However, before the darkness could swallow up the two of them, a night pearl as big as a human head slowly lit up on the roof of Fengyi Hall, dispersing the encroaching darkness.
Xia Wuyou was not surprised by this, nor did he care.
After all, darkness cannot affect the vision of practitioners at all, let alone experts at their level.
Seeing the night pearl above his head light up again, Xia Wuyou looked at the person in front of him again and said, "Now, can you say it?"
Although Xia Wuyou's tone at this time was very calm, Huang Yunqing could still detect a hint of impatience in it.
Thinking of the words Gu Cheng told him, Huang Yunqing glanced at something behind Xia Wuyou seemingly unintentionally, and then said: "In reply to Your Majesty, Gu Cheng..."
"What happened to him? Is there anything wrong?"
Looking at the empress who was obviously getting impatient at this time, Huang Yunqing slowly lowered his head and said in a very low tone: "Your Majesty, Gu Cheng has been dead for ten years without being rescued."
"Boom..."
It was like a thunderbolt suddenly exploded in his mind. After hearing the information from Huang Yunqing's mouth, Xia Wuyou felt dizzy.
So much so that she didn't even notice the slightest movement behind her.
In the darkness, a pair of eyes with a faint golden light stared at Huang Yunqing full of disbelief.
"Can you say that again!"
Looking at the empress who spoke every word with a gloomy tone, her eyes were staring at him, Huang Yunqing actually felt an inexplicable fear for a moment.
If she hadn't been sure that Gu Cheng was in the hall at this time, she would have even wanted to tell the truth.
However, just when she was hesitating whether to continue talking about what she had discussed with Gu Cheng before, a golden light that illuminated the entire hall suddenly flashed out.
"Ouch..."
In the golden light, a dragon roar full of sadness suddenly resounded through the silent night sky!
After the dragon's roar sounded, a voice filled with icy coldness sounded again: "I want you to say it again!"
As the dragon's roar sounded, the practitioners in the entire imperial city were suddenly shocked.
In the Imperial City, whether they were practitioners with profound cultivation or ordinary mortals who were not qualified to practice, they all knelt on the ground at this moment and looked at the place where the dragon's roar sounded.
In the palace, in the Fengyi Hall, Huang Yunqing watched the golden dragon in front of him that had changed to a size of several feet, staring at him with two golden dragon eyes as big as lanterns, not daring to make any rash move.
If she hadn't broken through the realm in seclusion on the nameless island, just the vast pressure would have prevented her from raising her head and speaking.
While running his skills and mobilizing all his strength to resist this extremely tyrannical pressure, Huang Yunqing said: "Your Majesty, please calm down!"
At this moment, she truly saw the strength of this human queen! (End of chapter)
