It's time to become a fairy.

The Underworld King solemnly said, "When the traitor Taihuang usurped the throne, he implemented a high-pressure policy against countless worlds in order to seize power. Now, in this era of great change, the hearts of countless worlds and all races are in turmoil. Your Majesty needs to come up with a solution as soon as possible."
Ye Qingge raised an eyebrow, a thoughtful expression on her face. She began to communicate with Su Qing'er in her mind, trying to learn about the changes that had occurred since she left.
Nearly half a month has passed since her last possession, and nearly half a month has also passed in Su Qing'er's world. During this time, many things, big and small, have happened that Ye Qingge is unaware of. Before she understands the truth of the matter, she cannot immediately come up with a solution.
"Since you left last time, the Underworld King, the gods of Heaven, and the various demon saints have begun to repair and improve Heaven, as well as handle the aftermath."
"However, Taihuang's ascension to the throne was illegitimate, which aroused heated discussions among many beings of the myriad races. In order to secure his position, he used his army to suppress many races, causing dissatisfaction among countless races. Now that the Heavenly Court is divided, the myriad races of the heavens, who were originally intimidated by the power of the Heavenly Court, have begun to have their own thoughts. In recent days, undercurrents have been surging, so much so that they have no time to deal with the traitor Taihuang, allowing him to successfully establish the Northern Emperor Heavenly Court..."
Su Qing'er spoke in a clear and melodious voice, telling her story in a gentle and detailed manner.
Based on her description, Ye Qingge roughly understood the reason. Simply put, Taihuang left Su Qing'er with a mess. When Taihuang usurped the throne, the Heavenly Court was still powerful, and others dared not speak out against him. Now that the Heavenly Court was divided, these races suddenly had many ulterior motives, wanting to fish in troubled waters and gain benefits.
but……
Ye Qingge stroked her smooth chin and suddenly asked herself, "Such clear and logical words don't seem like something Qing'er could say. Are you Su Qingya?"
Am I really that naive in your eyes?
Su Qing'er was furious, but then she seemed to remember something and her mood plummeted. After a long while, she finally said, "Su Qingya... she's gone."
"Gone?"
Ye Qingge was surprised
Su Qing'er's voice was low: "Ever since you possessed me last time and activated the ninth level of the Heavenly God Transformation, Su Qingya has never appeared again. When Qingya was still around, even when I was in control of the body, I could sense her, but now... she's gone."
Ye Qingge fell silent, unsure of how to comfort her.
Activating the Heavenly God Transformation comes at a price. The eighth level of the Heavenly God Transformation consumes a great deal of Su Qing'er's soul foundation in just a short time. The ninth level of the Heavenly God Transformation... Ye Qingge thought of a terrifying conjecture, but she couldn't confirm it yet. She calmed herself down and comforted her, "Don't worry, she's probably just fallen into a deep sleep due to overexertion. She'll come back after some time."
Su Qing'er did not respond.
Sensing the sorrow emanating from Su Qing'er's consciousness, Ye Qingge sighed helplessly. Faced with such a heavy matter, she didn't know what to say, so she could only suppress her thoughts for the time being and focus her attention on what Mingjun had just said.
"The chaos brought about by the myriad races of the heavens, the myriad races... wait, I remember talking to Feng Lingxiu about Su Qing'er's history before leaving Feng Lingxiu's body. Su Qing'er was praised by Feng Lingxiu as a great emperor of all time. Before her consciousness left the body, the last two words seemed to refer to her race?"
"So, does that mean Su Qing'er's history will be inextricably linked to her race, or that she will be closely connected to all the races in the world right now?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Ye Qingge's mind. Suddenly, she thought of what happened before she left Feng Lingxiu's body. She felt a flash of inspiration in her mind, but it had not yet become a systematic idea.
She closed her eyes, her eyebrows twitching as she pondered deeply. Following this flash of inspiration, she gradually organized her thoughts. The Underworld Lord seemed to be touched by Ye Qingge's expression, and as if he had thought of something, he did not urge her at all, but simply waited quietly for Ye Qingge to finish her thought.
After a long while, Ye Qingge finally finished organizing her thoughts. She suddenly turned around, her back to the Underworld Lord, and slowly said, "Actually, I have always had a dream."
The Underworld Lord raised his head and looked at Ye Qingge with some surprise.
"I'm sure the Underworld King knows that I was raised by my mother in the fox clan from a young age. My experiences afterward, especially when the fox clan was wiped out, showed me the prejudice of other races against the fox clan, and I witnessed the scenes of countless races oppressing and deceiving each other."
"Humans fear ghosts three parts, ghosts fear humans seven parts. Humans know how terrifying ghosts are, but ghosts know how venomous the human heart is. Prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain that no matter how hard you try, you can't move. This applies not only to humans, but also to countless human-like races and the inherent mentality of all races in the world. What kind of race you are will be labeled with what kind of label, which is difficult to change from birth. This is also the root of the conflicts among all races."
"Ever since I came to understand these things, I have had a dream in my heart... If one day I have the opportunity to ascend to this throne, I will do my best to change the status quo of all the races in the heavens, eliminate the prejudices among the thousands of intelligent races, and truly treat everyone equally, so that all the ambitious people of the intelligent races will have the opportunity to ascend to the temple and realize their ambitions in the Heavenly Court."
"Regardless of race or anything else, we are dedicated to creating a fair and just world where all those who aspire to achieve their ambitions can fully realize their potential without being troubled by racial prejudice... I wonder if Minister Ming could lend me a hand?"
As she finished speaking, Ye Qingge turned around, spread her arms outwards, and looked at Mingjun with a determined gaze.
The Underworld King was slightly taken aback, then his gaze changed, as if he had met a like-minded fellow Daoist. A rare expression of emotion appeared on his face, and he respectfully said, "From the previous dynasty to the present, no Heavenly Emperor has ever uttered such words. Based solely on Your Majesty's words, I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty and do everything in my power to realize Your Majesty's ambitions and ideals!"
Ye Qingge laughed heartily and said loudly, "In that case, it's a deal!"
"A word is settled!"
The Dark Lord's dark red eyes shone brightly, as if magma was flowing within them.
The two chatted for a while longer on the road. When the guards came to call Ye Qingge, the Underworld Lord reluctantly took his leave.
After sending the Underworld Lord away, Ye Qingge finally breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed her temples, and muttered to herself, "I finally got rid of the Underworld Lord. I almost couldn't keep up the act anymore. If it weren't for my many experiences of possession and Su Qing'er's background, I'm afraid I would have been exposed."
"This Underworld Lord doesn't seem to have much experience. It seems that my words touched him deeply, which is why I gained his approval... In any case, I've helped Su Qing'er get through this ordeal."
Ye Qingge glanced in the direction the Underworld Lord had left, lost in thought.
I learned from the Heavenly Court information I had previously exchanged with Su Qing'er that this Underworld Lord was not born after the founding of the Supreme Emperor's Heavenly Court, but existed when the previous dynasty collapsed. He conquered the world together with the first Supreme Emperor, which is why he has such a high status.
However, Su Qing'er knew nothing about the experiences of the Underworld King during the previous dynasty. It seemed to be a taboo subject, and no one mentioned it or knew how to find out.
Shaking her head, Ye Qingge collected her thoughts and left the place with the guard.
Having just experienced the Taihuang incident only half a month ago, even though Ye Qingge helped Su Qing'er win the battle for righteousness and gained the support of most of the celestial officials to help her build a new Heavenly Court, there are still a lot of things that she needs to handle personally.
Fortunately, with the methods and ways of thinking she learned from the Empress, Ye Qingge no longer had any problems handling ordinary matters and quickly and skillfully completed them.
One hour later
Ye Qingge summoned the steward, preparing to withdraw some alchemy materials to continue honing her alchemy skills.
With the new emperor's arrival, the original steward was naturally dismissed. Since Su Qing'er didn't have any familiar talents under her command, she continued to use her original personal maid, Luo Qing. Under her gaze, Luo Qing cautiously walked over and handed over a list of existing materials from the Heavenly Emperor's private treasury.
Upon seeing the numbers, Ye Qingge raised her eyelids sharply: "How can the inventory of documents in the warehouse differ so greatly?"
When investigating the cause of the late emperor's death, Ye Qingge did draw upon information from the Heavenly Court's treasury, but the information differed greatly from the list in this document.
Three times more!
Luo Qing became even more nervous and respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, during the time I was assisting you in managing the Imperial Treasury, I manipulated things in a reasonable way, which is why the list of materials in the Imperial Treasury differs so greatly."
Ye Qingge's eyes changed immediately. She remembered that she had only been away for half a month, and in that short half month, the resources in the Heavenly Emperor's inner treasury had tripled.
This guy is a real talent!
"Very good, very well done."
Ye Qingge patted Luo Qing on the shoulder, praised her a few times, and reassured Luo Qing to use the resources in her private treasury with peace of mind. Only then did she write down the materials she needed and ask Luo Qing to fetch them.
What she didn't know was
This one action made Luo Qing's heart skip a beat.
"As expected, my resource-earning speed is still too slow. At first, I thought His Majesty was genuinely praising me, but his subsequent actions finally made me see through His Majesty's intentions!"
"Your words just now seemed like praise, but they were actually an implication that if I couldn't demonstrate enough value, I would end up like the previous maid... Your pat on the shoulder earlier, encouraging me to use the imperial treasury boldly, further confirmed my suspicions. It was practically an open statement that so many resources entrusted to me had only brought such meager returns, which was truly disappointing to His Majesty."
"Indeed, the area around emperors has always been the most dangerous. Even a small action can contain so much profound meaning, and one careless move can easily lead to beheading. No, I've been too lazy these days. I must devise a more detailed strategy to make money... But how easy is it to earn resources from ordinary immortals? Wait a minute!"
"I remember hearing that there is a group of myriad races outside. Every one of them who can come to the Heavenly Court is a representative of myriad races and they are all extremely wealthy. Maybe I can find a way to make some money."
"No matter what, we must not end up like the previous maid. We have no choice but to offend her."
Luo Qing stroked her chin thoughtfully, slowly making up her mind.
the other side
Ye Qingge was unaware that her casual action had aroused so many thoughts in the housekeeper Luo Qing. While Luo Qing was collecting materials, she began to practice the skills she had acquired from Su Qing'er.
Celestial Transformation, Soul Devouring Technique... Ye Qingge activated one skill after another, mastering them at an extremely fast pace, until the materials and alchemy furnace were gathered before she began alchemy.
In the midst of a busy day, time flies by.
Twenty-four hours have passed
Ye Qingge's vision went black as her consciousness left Su Qing'er's body and returned to her own.
With a time ratio of ten to one, only a little over two hours had passed in reality, arriving at around 7:00 AM. After finishing breakfast and continuing their cultivation for a while, Feng Yumeng arrived at Ye Qingge's room at 10:00 AM. After checking out with Ye Qingge, they headed to the East City Spirit Boat Center.
十二点
Boarding the battle spirit ship, they sailed to the high walls of the East City, transferred to a war spirit ship that resembled a mobile fortress, and with a roar, the passage from the East City to the outside world opened. The war spirit ship slowly passed through the passage and left the East City, heading towards Ning City, embarking on its return journey.
Warship, in a room
Ye Qingge waited in the room for a while before Feng Yumeng walked over with a gloomy expression and handed Ye Qingge a raw stone necklace with a slightly dim luster.
Ye Qingge took the necklace, her brows furrowing slightly: "This necklace..."
Feng Yumeng's expression was grim: "Recently, raw stone resources have been scarce, so we have to use this batch of raw stone reserves as well. This applies to all the raw stone resources that disciples can receive. During the hunting season, keep a close eye on them and notify me as soon as the energy in the raw stones is about to run out. They must be replaced immediately!"
Raw stones are a scarce resource in this world and cannot be traded at all. Even ordinary disciples cannot possess them. Only civil servants like Feng Yumeng, who serve as stewards in the Canghui Sect, are allocated them based on their circumstances.
Each time someone boards the War Spirit Ship, they are given a new Primal Stone. When they disembark, the Primal Stone is collected to prevent it from falling into the hands of other factions. The control is extremely strict.
Ye Qingge sighed helplessly. Since things were as they were, there was nothing she could do.
After putting on the raw stone necklace, Ye Qingge once again entered the strict daily routine of the War Spirit Ship.
……
……
Time flies, and six days have passed in the blink of an eye.
As before, the War Spirit Ship will arrive in Ningcheng in seven days. According to the War Spirit Ship's prediction, it will arrive at the Ningcheng Spirit Ship Center on the afternoon of the second day.
Lingzhou Library
Seeing that it was almost time, Ye Qingge put down the book in her hand, rubbed her temples which were slightly throbbing from the intense memorization of the past few days, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally, it's time for the daily hunt again. If it weren't for fulfilling the promise I made to myself in the Empress World, I really wouldn't want to study so hard every day."
After glancing at the books on the bookshelf, she felt a slight headache and began to regret why she had agreed to the provocations of the observers from the Eastern Heavenly Court and the Primordial Heavenly Court, and accepted this arduous task.
This was the first time in her two lifetimes that she had studied and memorized book knowledge so frantically; she had never had such an experience before.
Rubbing her temples until the throbbing in her head subsided, Ye Qingge opened her personal panel.
Name: Ye Qingge
[Cultivation Level: Tenth Level of Spiritual Awareness]
[Bloodline: Navigator]
[Cultivation Technique: Primordial Dao Scripture (Great Completion)]
[Divine Powers and Techniques: Five Elements Divine Powers, Level Two (Mastery), Soul Devouring Technique (Mastery), Initial Understanding of Sword Dao (Mastery), First Five Levels of Heavenly God Transformation (Mastery), Mysterious Heaven Sealing Magic Technique (Mastery), Soul-Hooking Technique (Mastery), Mind Illusion Technique (Mastery), Supreme Saint Demon Pill Technique (Minor Mastery), Righteous Qi (Minor Mastery), Wood Restoration Spirit Technique, Level One (Minor Mastery)...]
Special Skills: Soul Binding Technique, Netherworld Space, Lord of the Underworld
For the past six days, Ye Qingge has devoted most of her free time to the Empress, frantically honing her skills. However, the difficulty of developing a skill from mastery to perfection far exceeded Ye Qingge's expectations. No matter how hard she trained, she still hadn't reached the highest level of perfection.
However, thanks to his efforts over this period of time, he has successfully mastered the Mind Illusion Technique and the Supreme Saint Demon Pill Technique, which has now been pushed from a lower ranking among his original skills to the first skill in the skill rankings after mastery.
Of course, for Ye Qingge, the biggest improvement in the past few days was not these things, but her cultivation level!
"The tenth level of spiritual awareness is only one step away from divine breath. The difficulty of breaking through this major realm is much higher than before. Even without a strong external stimulus, it will take me some time. I expect to complete the breakthrough in another four or five days."
"Reaching the Divine Breath from the Spiritual Awareness stage is not a simple breakthrough, but rather a journey from the first step of entering the Dao to the second step of cultivation, the Dan Hai realm. From this point onward, one begins to distinguish oneself from other cultivators who have entered the Dao. The body will automatically absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and in places rich in spiritual energy, one can completely achieve abstaining from grains!"
"Physical fitness and all data will surpass those of the initial cultivation stage, representing a leap forward in improvement!"
She clenched her fists, feeling the abundant power within her body and the ever-growing strength of her bloodline, and nodded in satisfaction.
