Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 142 The Secret Realm Closes, the Gathering of Prodigies Ends

Wei Changge's eyes were filled with coldness, and she said with a mocking tone, "Your fiancé is still in the secret realm, and his life or death is unknown. If I take this opportunity to ask Emperor Yuan to terminate the marriage alliance, do you think he will agree?"

"You can give it a try."

Wei Ling Shuang's voice was ethereal, but her tone remained firm as she said, "Even if Li Qi Ye were to perish, and you were to propose ending the marriage alliance at this time, how do you think Emperor Yuan would react?"

Although she has never been able to cultivate, she is not ignorant of human relationships and social customs.

Judging from Emperor Yuan's actions just now, he values ​​Li Qiye highly.

As Wei Ling Shuang said, if Li Qiye were to die and the Northern Wei Dynasty were to immediately propose to terminate the marriage alliance, Emperor Yuan might agree, but he would certainly be extremely dissatisfied with the Northern Wei Dynasty's actions.

Even if Wei Changge is the crown prince of Northern Wei, he cannot bear this responsibility.

After all, this involves two massive dynasties, and the foundation of the Zhou Dynasty far surpasses that of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

If there is a rift between these two dynasties, other forces are likely to seize upon this and attack the Northern Wei dynasty.

as predicted.

Wei Changge's smile froze. He stared at his sister, whose immortal bones he had extracted, and the killing intent in his eyes was no longer concealed.

Although Wei Changge seemed to disregard Wei Lingshuang on the surface, he was actually always wary of her, stemming from the immortal bone that belonged to Wei Lingshuang.

Deep down, Wei Changge was ultimately unwilling to let Wei Lingshuang gain power.

His interference in the marriage alliance this time was also for this reason.

"very good."

Wei Changge said with a half-smile, "I'd like to see how long you can survive in this Great Zhou Dynasty without Li Qiye."

Just then, Granny Silver Dragon exclaimed with delight, "Your Highness, Prince Qiye has come out!"

"Li Qiye is out?"

"where is he?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Ling Shuang's icy expression immediately melted away, and she looked up with delight in the direction that Granny Silver Dragon had pointed.

Wei Changge's smile froze again; he desperately wanted to kill Wei Ling Shuang on the spot.

But reason prevailed over the thought. He let out a soft breath, a smile returned to his face, and then he vanished from the spot.

At this very moment, above the square.

The figures of Li Qiye, Li Yueyao, and the Snow Moon Saintess appeared almost simultaneously, immediately attracting the attention of everyone present.

"The Snow Moon Saintess is really not dead, and she is even with Li Qiye."

The young master of the Demon Pavilion muttered to himself.

"Who is that girl? She's standing right next to the Snow Moon Saintess, and she's holding her own in no way."

Someone exclaimed in surprise, their gazes falling on Li Yueyao.

"The Snow Moon Saintess has never revealed her true appearance, so it is impossible to judge her. However, compared with the second fairy of the Heavenly Desolate Realm, Fairy Qingyin, this girl is in no way inferior."

One person commented with a shocked expression.

Although Li Yueyao had not concealed her face before, she had never been so directly exposed to so many people, instantly attracting their attention.

From this day forward, Li Yueyao will likely be a fairy of the Heavenly Desolate Realm, though her ranking remains unknown.

Fairy Qingyin floated quietly in the air, gazing at Li Qiye with a hint of resentment in her beautiful eyes.

"This man isn't satisfied with me; he's even trying to seduce the Snow Moon Saintess. Is he trying to take all the top two fairies in the Heavenly Desolate Realm into his possession?"

Although she spoke with a hint of complaint, her eyes were gentle and tender. She finally breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile gradually appeared on her face.

For Qingyin Pavilion, each generation of Qingyin Fairy only cultivates with one man, which can be considered a form of cooperation where everyone benefits. Regardless, Qingyin Fairy does not want to see Li Qiye perish.

At the same time, everyone present felt the oppressive atmosphere in the air disappear.

The young eunuch listened for a moment beside the imperial carriage, a smile appearing on his face. He then looked down at the crowd and loudly proclaimed:
"Dear young talents, due to an unexpected event that caused this Gathering of Prodigies to end prematurely, and the rankings cannot be determined, the original reward of bathing in the Dragon Spring Blood Pool has been cancelled. As compensation, everyone can comprehend the Great Dao Stele for seven days."

At this point, the old eunuch turned around and respectfully said towards the direction of the palace, "We respectfully request the Great Dao Stele!"

After a moment, a loud bang was heard, and a dazzling golden light flashed through the air before crashing down in the center of the square, transforming into an ancient and weathered stone monument.

The stone tablet is tens of meters high and stands firmly, as if it has always stood here.

This is the Great Road Stele!
Before anyone could react, the imperial chariot in the sky headed towards the palace and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

It was only then that everyone realized what was happening.

"The reward for bathing in the Dragon Spring Blood Pool has been cancelled?"

Someone frowned deeply.

"Hasn't an explanation already been given? Emperor Yuan of the Great Zhou Dynasty has already made compensation, and everyone can now comprehend the Great Dao Stele."

"That's right. Even if there were a reward for bathing in the Dragon Spring Blood Pool, it wouldn't be our turn. It's better to have seven days to comprehend the Great Dao Stele."

Many people come to the Great Zhou Imperial Mausoleum City just to join in the fun; they never think about competing with the geniuses of those powerful forces for the top ten, and they can't possibly beat them anyway.

Who would have thought that they would actually have the opportunity to comprehend the Great Dao Stele for seven days? How could they not be happy?
Some of the prodigies from powerful factions were dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do about it.

After all, what the old eunuch said was true; the secret realm had closed for some unknown reason, which was something no one had expected.

Otherwise, Emperor Yuan wouldn't have been angry just now because one of the princes didn't come out.

"It's a real pity. Bathing in the Dragon Spring Blood Pool was my primary goal for coming here, not the Great Dao Stele."

The young man from the Silverblood God Clan shook his head, glanced at the Great Dao Stele in front of him, and then transformed into a beam of light and disappeared from the spot.

Several others left along with him. It wasn't that the Great Dao Stone Tablet was bad, but rather that they came from super powers and already possessed divine weapons of the same level as the Great Dao Stone Tablet, so they didn't value it much.

However, most people stayed, thinking that since it was free, they absolutely couldn't waste it.

Li Qiye stood in the air with a strange expression. He had just resolved the matter inside and successfully merged the two worlds together. He didn't need to worry about the rest; the will of that world would restore it.

However, this cannot be completed immediately; it requires a considerable amount of time and is an extremely long process.

"Could Father have foreseen that the secret realm would close?"

A thought suddenly popped into Li Qiye's mind.

The Dragon Spring Blood Pool was already empty of spiritual liquid, and the old eunuch's words just now perfectly avoided this point.

As for the Great Dao Stele, he had already obtained the truly powerful inheritance within it, leaving only some ordinary inheritances on it.

So we simply let everyone have a chance to reflect on it, and there's no limit to the number of times you can reflect on it.

Since none of these things matter anymore, it's better to use them as a reward.

This can be considered a less than perfect ending to the Gathering of Prodigies.

With that, the Gathering of Prodigies comes to an end.

Many people left, clearly showing little interest in comprehending the Great Dao Stele.

"Young Master Li, the Snow Moon Feast is still a while away. You must come and attend when it comes."

The Snow Moon Saintess looked at Li Qiye and softly invited him.
