Chapter 246 The Coveted Heart
The sky is clear and white clouds are blooming.

In the city of Yujing.

In the Prince's East Palace just east of the imperial city.

A man with a jade crown on his head, inlaid with a few strands of red-gold gold flowers, was sitting on a chair deep in the palace. Between his brows and the sky, there was always a purple air shrouded in it, like smoke and mist. An incomparably mysterious nobility of man.

If someone who is good at qi-watching Taoism expert goes to see it, he will know that this person's life is extremely precious.

There is not a single trace of dilapidation in this person's body, and some seem to have a "purple energy coming from the east" charm.

This person is Yang Yuan, the Dagan Prince, who is already 35 years old and has already passed his thirties.

But because Emperor Daqian Yang Pan was still in his prime in spring and autumn, the prince Dagan had to live in seclusion in the East Palace. He usually didn't show his face or monitor the country, but hibernated silently in the East Palace.

Facing a powerful father, and this father may have to sit on the throne for a long time, it may take decades, or even three to fifty years for the prince to ascend to the throne.

Naturally, the prince will not be content with the status quo, and will endure it honestly.

Facing the artifact of the country, the supreme emperor, the relationship between father and son is nothing.

Moreover, the position of prince may not be as stable as Mount Tai.

The Tian family is ruthless, with so many brothers, there are also many princes who are capable of competing with the prince for the throne.

Such as Prince Jade, such as Prince He.

For example, "Champion Hou", you must know that "Champion Hou" is the illegitimate son of Emperor Qian.

Maybe one day, Emperor Qian will be unhappy, and his crown prince will lose his position.

At this time, the grand prince Yang Yuan was sitting in the palace, wearing a large brocade robe, with his hands resting on the armrests of the chair.

The prince sat firmly, with his eyelids drooping, as if he didn't think about anything, and he didn't do anything. In the empty hall, there wasn't a single serving eunuch, guards, or maids.

Because these maids, eunuchs, and guards all know that the prince is thinking about something at this time, and they must not be disturbed.

After a long time, suddenly, a slight nasal sound came out from the prince's nasal cavity, and the whole hall suddenly became slightly dark.

Then, in the center of the hall, a woman appeared.

This woman is all white, with fluttering skirts, willow leaf eyebrows, almond eyes and peach cheeks, and a pair of pale white cloud shoes on her feet, with her hands behind her back. As soon as she appeared, she casually looked up and down the situation of the entire hall, and then turned her gaze away On the body of the prince sitting in the middle.

"Wusheng, why are you here?"

The prince raised his eyes when he saw this woman appearing, and there was a strange look in his eternal eyes.

"Hong Xuanji was crippled by Qing Yunzi of Qingyun Dao, and escaped from Yujing City in desperation. I don't know what you think of this Qingyunzi."

The woman called "Wusheng" called the prince for you while talking.

There is no awe in the title, which shows that the identity is very special.

"Hong Xuanji is my master. I know how powerful he is. Even though his Dao heart was broken back then, he was also a peak Martial Saint. Moreover, even though he was severely injured by Qing Yunzi from Qingyun Dao who had his arm crippled, But now he is blessed by misfortune, he has gone one step further, has broken through the life and death gateway, and reached the realm of immortality!"

"If it wasn't for Hong Xuanji's Dao heart being broken back then, he would have achieved such an achievement 20 years ago. This time, it is because of Qing Yunzi's sudden disruption that Hong Xuanji made a breakthrough. This Hong Xuanji is really admirable. "

"However, that Qing Yunzi seems to be more worthy of my attention."

The prince smiled lightly and said softly.

The hall was very quiet, although the prince's voice was not loud, it still rang out far, far away in the hall.

Wusheng frowned, and said: "Unexpectedly, Hong Xuanji has already broken through the Human Immortal. No wonder he disappeared as soon as he left Yujing City. No one knows where he went. It turns out that he has already broken through the Human Immortal!"

"The Way of Human Immortals, the Profound Gate of Life and Death, and the Bridge of Heaven and Earth, I never imagined that Hong Xuanji would become a Human Immortal after suffering such a catastrophe!"

"Know one thing, know a hundred things, it will be even more difficult to deal with Hong Xuanji in the future."

Hearing this, the prince just smiled slightly, and said: "No matter how Hong Xuanji breaks through, he may not be Qing Yunzi's opponent."

Wusheng wondered: "What is the origin of Qingyunzi? It is rumored that Qingyun Dao, Vacuum Dao and Wusheng Dao come from the same source. Could it be that Qing Yunzi was really recruited by you?"

The prince heard this, but kept his mouth shut, and changed the subject, "Leaving aside the matter of Qing Yunzi, the most important thing right now is the development of the teaching affairs of the Vacuum Dao and Wusheng Dao in Zhongzhou."

Hearing that the prince deliberately changed the subject, Wusheng just frowned, and didn't continue to ask, but said: "After you ascend the throne, the two great teachings of vacuum Tao and Wusheng Tao will definitely be abolished, even if you don't ascend the throne, wait for us After the supernatural powers have been achieved, they must also be abolished. If you take the initiative to preside over the government affairs and wipe them out with a thunderbolt, you can also show the Manchu literati and bureaucrats a look at your methods, so as to gain their support."

"But what about Qing Yun Dao?"

"Qingyun Dao is within the range of Yujing City, could this be another move you made?"

Wusheng naturally brought this topic back.

It was obvious that she wanted to know the truth of the matter very much.

A transcendent master at the peak of human immortality, but no one knows his origin, which made her quite worried.

This Wusheng, whose full name is He Wusheng, is a saintess of the Wusheng Dao in name, but she is actually an elder of the Supreme Dao.

This time, she came to the prince to find out the truth of the prince.

The two cults of Wusheng Dao and Vacuum Dao were secretly developed by the prince.

Now there is another Qingyun Road.

Moreover, it is widely spread that Qingyun Dao, Wu Sheng Dao and Vacuum Dao come from the same source.

True and false, difficult to distinguish.

Although He Wusheng knew that the prince coveted her beauty, she was not very clear about some things about the prince.

Just like now, when she asked about Qingyun Dao, the prince would talk about him, deliberately covering up.

This made He Wusheng even more puzzled, but he believed in his heart that Qing Yundao really had something to do with the prince.

If this is the case, then the crown prince will have a backer who is a transcendent master at the peak of human immortality.

Hearing He Wusheng's words, the crown prince just said indifferently: "I can't tell you about Qingyun Dao for the time being."

He Wusheng heard the words, pretended to be a little unhappy, waved his hands, his face was quite ugly, and said: "Does the crown prince regard me as an outsider?"

Hearing this, the crown prince smiled and said, "Wu Sheng is serious, don't you know my feelings for you?"

"It's just that Qingyunzi's matter involves a key step in my follow-up. Naturally, the less people know about the stakes, the better."

"Wusheng, my heart for you can be learned from the world, and the sun and the moon can show it. If something great happens in the future, I will naturally accept you as my concubine, then abolish the queen, and embrace you as the queen. You can also be the mother of the world. The two of us People may or may not be able to imitate the ancient holy emperor, cultivate immortality, ride a dragon to ascend to heaven, and travel in the void."

He Wusheng heard this, but he didn't want to ask too much, so he softened his attitude and said softly: "It's good if you have this kind of heart, but I'm afraid that you will forget about me when the time comes."

Hearing this, the prince took He Wusheng's hand in his hand, patted the back of He Wusheng's hand, and said: "Don't worry, Wusheng, you won't, your position in my heart cannot be replaced by anyone else." of."

Although He Wusheng didn't believe the prince's nonsense in his heart, he pretended to understand it on his face.

"I understand. Since this is the case, when you think the time is right, tell me about Qing Yundao."

While He Wusheng was speaking, he quite naturally pulled out the hand that was pinched by the prince.

The prince let out a long breath, the air flow in the cold air of the hall actually condensed into a cloud of white mist, which lasted for a long time, like a faint ink landscape painting, forming various shadows.

"You have to supervise Wusheng's educational affairs in Zhongzhou, so I won't keep you. When the big event is over, I'll have a drink with Wusheng again."

He Wusheng frowned slightly, and only said: "Alright then, I'll go first."

After all, He Wusheng stepped towards the entrance of the main hall, and his figure disappeared, as if he had left directly from the void.

Just when He Wusheng had just left, the prince stood up straight away, looking at the disappearing back of He Wusheng, a gleam of purple light shone in his eyes.

Under the backdrop of the purple light, the crown prince saw that He Wusheng was covered in mist and flew towards the sky outside the hall.

The fog should be a means to confuse people's eyes, similar to magic tricks like blinding eyes.

As long as a person is wrapped, he disappears from people's sight.

The prince looked at the back of He Wusheng leaving, and murmured: "He Wusheng, little He'er, you are really impatient, but I'm afraid you would never have imagined it in your dreams. The appearance of Qing Yunzi directly made the muddy water in Yujing City even more muddy, which is a good thing."

At this moment, an old woman with a cane came out from the side of the main hall.

The leader of Wusheng Dao Wusheng old mother!

Although the Wusheng old mother did not cultivate into a ghost fairy, she has cultivated into the incarnations of the seven Doumu Xuanling true gods. They are extremely powerful, and the power of each avatar is comparable to the power of a ghost fairy!

Even if it is a real ghost fairy, it is no match for this lifeless old mother!
But this lifeless old mother is under the crown prince's hand!
"Prince, Wusheng has been worshiped by me for several years. Although she was selected by me as the saint of Wusheng Dao, her true identity makes me doubt it."

"The crown prince is interested in her, but we still need to know her true identity."

Wusheng old mother said quietly.

"Isn't it the elder who is too good?"

"The prince has known her identity for a long time. This time, Su Mu, the Supreme Daoist Saintess, sent her to find out what the prince is saying."

"It seems that dragging Qingyunzi into the water this time is not ineffective. At least even Su Mu has some doubts that Qingyunzi is the prince's backer."

"The false is the real, the false is the real, the real is the false, this trick already has some taste."

"The Taishang Dao is high above, and does not take the secular imperial power in his eyes, but in the face of a transcendent master at the peak of human immortality, the Taishang Dao would not dare to take advantage of him lightly."

"Su Mu is only a ghost fairy who has passed through a thunder calamity. Even the prince's master Hong Xuanji can strangle Su Mu, let alone Qing Yunzi, who is at the peak of human immortality."

The prince sat on the chair again, tapped the armrest of the chair lightly with one hand, and said softly.

"The crown prince, Sheng Ming, came up with such a good way to pull the tiger's skin. However, after all, Qing Yunzi is a superb master at the peak of human immortality. If he knows that the crown prince is using his reputation like this, I'm afraid it will make him unhappy."

"Judging from this person's behavior style, he is also a person who does not take secular imperial power seriously."

"This person grandly established the Qingyun Dao Mountain Gate outside Yujing City, and also threw out a method of refining qi that is completely different from the two major cultivation methods in the world."

"This person's appetite is probably very large."

"Compared to the Vacuum Dharma King of the Vacuum Dao, this Qingyunzi poses a much greater threat."

"We don't have the strength to provoke him for the time being."

Wusheng old mother analyzed from the side.

The prince's eyes fell outside the main hall, his eyes were extremely deep, and he could only hear him say: "It doesn't matter, since he came to Yujing City to create a Taoist system, it means that there is something in Yujing City that can enter his eyes. Establishing orthodoxy is not invulnerable."

"Although he didn't personally kill Hong Xuanji, but Hong Xuanji was severely injured by his arm being crippled. The enmity between the two is endless."

"When Hong Xuanji came back, he was definitely going to trouble Qing Yunzi."

"And Hong Xuanji is my father's right-hand man, a vassal minister. I still know my father's temperament."

"The reason why he doesn't attack Qingyunzi right now, and just sit and watch Qingyunzi establish a sect in Xishan and make troubles and rains, is because the father and the old man are not sure that they can deal with such a transcendent master at the peak of human immortality."

"If one day, father and the old man free up his hand, he will definitely help Hong Xuanji kill Qing Yunzi!"

"After all, Qingyunzi's Qingyun Dao is extremely likely to become the second Supreme Dao!"

"There is already a Taishang Dao in this world!"

"Father absolutely does not want a second Tai Shang Dao to appear again!"

"Although Qing Yunzi and his father haven't met each other yet, they will fight each other in the end, and they will definitely not give up if they don't fight for life and death."

"But if Qingyunzi can help me, then for Qingyunzi's Qingyundao, there are only benefits and no disadvantages."

"The prince can promise him that after the prince ascends the throne, he will establish Qingyun Dao as the state religion of Dagan! He, Qingyunzi, will be my No. 1 Daoist sect in the world!"

"The prince believes that since he has come to Yujing City to establish a moral lineage, he will definitely ask for something."

"If he is really as forgetful as the Supreme Daoist, why bother to set up a sect in Yujing City, find a corner of the mountain, and create the same Taoism as the Supreme Daoist, isn't it the same?"

"The crown prince can show him all his hole cards!"

"How can you get a tiger cub if you don't go into the tiger's lair? If you can't let go of a child, you can't catch a wolf. This prince Qingyunzi must be captured!"

"As long as he promises to help the prince, the prince can accomplish great things!"

"At that time, after this crown prince ascends the throne, he can use Qing Yunzi's hand to eradicate Taishang Dao!"

"Mengshenji is powerful, but Qingyunzi is not bad either."

"It's best for these two people to fight to the death and life, and in the end, the crown prince will reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

The prince sat on the chair with a smile on his face, showing an extremely confident expression, as if he was only one step away from success. He was planning a strategy thousands of miles away, and everything was under his control.
