Starting with being handed over to the Imperial Concubine, building a family with a thousand-year hi

What she needs to do now is to continuously pour her own essence into the Yuanling Flying Sword!

It must be tempered using one's own true energy.

Given her current level of cultivation, it's unknown how much effort it would take for her to completely refine this flying sword.

If she reaches the Grandmaster level, then it will be even faster!

But he no longer had the chance!

But it was worth it!

Once she refines this Yuanling Flying Sword, she can quickly step into the Grandmaster realm, and her swordsmanship will also advance by leaps and bounds!

This is why she was so excited when she saw the Yuanling Flying Sword!

……

It was around midnight.

Fenghe Hall.

Lin Wen and her grandfather Lin Zhengying sat in a teahouse, holding teacups and admiring a golden egg on the table.

This golden egg is the treasure that Lin Zhengying obtained in Wild Wolf Ridge!

This is an oval-shaped monster, more than two meters tall when it's lying on the ground!

The egg was completely black, covered with strange and mysterious patterns.

He could clearly sense that the bead was radiating an extremely rich vitality and an extremely strong demonic energy!

It's easy to tell that this is an egg that hasn't hatched yet!

Once hatched, it is a young beast with extremely high bloodline!

"Grandpa, can you tell which one this is?"

"I never expected this!"

Lin Zhengying shook his head and said, "No matter what, his background is definitely not simple!"

"It's been over ten thousand years, why hasn't it hatched yet? Is it a dead egg?"

Lin Wen asked again, "What's wrong with you?"

"It can't be a dead egg; this egg is still very vigorous!"

Lin Zhengying replied, "It was in this form about ten thousand years ago, but it was later sealed away, which is why its gestation stopped. Now that the seal has been broken, it can be conceived again, and I believe it won't be long before it is born!"

"This must be something left behind by some powerful being from ancient times!"

The more she observed, the more curious Su Wen became.

"Yes!" Gu Ning replied.

Lin Zhengying continued, "Once this little beast is born, it will definitely be very strong when it grows up, which will benefit both itself and its family! Judging from the faint aura it exudes, it's likely that it will already be a Grandmaster even right after hatching!"

"That would be even better!"

A look of anticipation appeared on Lin Wen's face. "Once I return to the Heavenly Martial Sect and hatch his egg, our Heavenly Martial Sect will be able to reach even greater heights!"

"There's still a long way to go before it hatches!"

Lin Zhengying sighed and said, "To break through to the next realm, we need to provide him with a large amount of resources, but our Tianwu Sect doesn't have many! Even if we give up everything we own, we might not be able to help him make it!"

"It was all worth it!"

Lin Wen said, "I understand."

"That's right!" Regner nodded.

Lin Zhengying nodded and said, "No matter what, I'm going to give it a try! Besides, more ancient relics will appear in the future. Whoever can occupy a treasure will get enough resources to help them break through their bottleneck!"

"Grandfather, did that mysterious grandmaster hiding behind Su Chen try to steal any treasures tonight?"

Su Wen changed the subject.

"certainly!"

Lin Zhengying smiled faintly and said, "In fact, this mysterious grandmaster is not the only one."

"Huh??" Regner was taken aback.

Lin Wen's eyes widened in shock. "A puppet?"

"Yes!" He nodded.

"No wonder he's unwilling to show himself. Despite his enormous contributions to the royal family, he hasn't received any gratitude from them!"

Lin Wen then realized, "If he gets this close, he'll expose himself as a puppet!"

Lin Zhengying continued, "This puppet, like me, was there waiting when the light appeared in Wild Wolf Ridge, searching for treasure! His Highness and I tried to approach it and talk to it, but it kept avoiding us. I thought it was just putting on an air of mystery, but it turns out it's a puppet!"

Have you tried it?

Lin Wen asked again, "What's wrong with you?"

"He tried more than once, and it even resulted in him being seriously injured and collapsing to the ground!"

Lin Zhengying said arrogantly, "This puppet's power is indeed very ordinary. Perhaps it's because its level is insufficient, or perhaps its injuries haven't fully healed, making it appear so fragile!"

"Or perhaps, your power surpasses that of an average grandmaster!"

Lin Wen flattered him, then asked, "When you sent that puppet flying, did you also examine its body?"

"No!" Chen Zhao shook his head.

Lin Zhengying shook his head and said, "First, I was so focused on finding the treasure so close at hand that I didn't have time to go deeper, and there were other Grandmasters around. Second, I figured a puppet wouldn't have anything valuable inside! So, as soon as I got the golden egg, I left Wild Wolf Ridge to avoid any unforeseen complications!"

"Oh!" the man replied.

Lin Wen said, "We speculate that this mysterious grandmaster must have found a treasure, which is why his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. If that mysterious grandmaster is a puppet, then Su Mu is the one who found the treasure?"

"Yes!" He nodded.

Lin Zhengying echoed this.

Lin Wen added, "If we can get our hands on it, wouldn't we have enough resources to allow this golden egg to complete its final evolution?"

"That makes sense!" Chen Xiaobei nodded.

Lin Zhengying nodded, then said with some difficulty, "But Su Chen is a loyal and devoted eunuch personally appointed by the Emperor."

"Grandpa!" Mu Qiqi called out.

Lin Wen understood her grandfather's worries. "I have already sentenced Su Mu to death for four crimes, but since you are not in the palace and no one supports me, I have stopped!"

"You are now a Grandmaster of my Heavenly Martial Sect, and you also guard the palace for the royal family. If you want to kill me, no one can stop you!"

"Moreover, putting aside the four capital offenses I laid down against Su Mu, Su Mu himself has already committed a grave taboo within the royal family!"

"He's been taking on a large number of adopted sons in the palace and has been actively cultivating them; clearly, he has ulterior motives!"

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Lin Zhengying's eyes.

As a grandmaster, why should I worry about so much?

Before this, Lin Zhengying was somewhat afraid of the mysterious Grandmaster behind Su Chen, because he had just been promoted to Grandmaster and was unwilling to fight to the death with a master of the same level. If he did, even if he could win, he would probably suffer the consequences.

But this time, everything is different!

"Grandfather, even if you don't want to kill him, he must hate you!"

Lin Wen added, "Don't forget, that doll could very well be that person's!"

"Yes!" Gu Ning replied.

Lin Zhengying sighed and said, "Now that things have come to this, I have no way out. No matter what, I have to kill him!"

"When are you going to make your move?"

Su Wen asked.
