Yin Li felt as if all her strength had been drained from her body. She had thought that Xiao Zhao and she shared some kind of sympathy, but now that was completely gone.

For a time, the greatest sorrow was the despair of a broken heart!

Wu Xingyun said calmly, "I have a way to heal your face, but don't bother practicing poison techniques. What kind of talk is that?"

Having said that, he unceremoniously grabbed Yin Li by the back of his collar, took off into the air, and flew towards Lingjiu Palace.

Yin Li struggled, "What are you doing? Let me go."

Wu Xingyun gave a soft shout, "Shut up!"

Yin Li was startled and fell silent.

Lin Zhu thought to herself, "Is this one with attributes?"

At this moment, Yin Li was truly obedient in Wu Xingyun's hands.

She lost her mother-in-law who used to lecture her, but gained a maternal grandmother who used to scold her.

The group returned to Lingjiu Palace together.

Lin Zhu walked at the very back, together with Yan Lingji.

Huo Ling'er was in Yan Ling Ji's arms.

It is beneficial for both the human and the beast to cultivate together.

Therefore, Lin Zhu entrusted Huo Ling'er to Yan Ling Ji's care.

Yan Lingji was naturally delighted, as this was the fire god in her heart.

Upon arriving at Lingjiu Palace, Wu Xingyun began to work on changing Yin Li's face.

With a swift movement, he slashed several times across Yin Li's face, allowing the poisoned blood to drain out.

Then some good medicine was applied.

In just a few days, Yin Li's face recovered. While not exceptionally beautiful, it was still quite attractive.

Wu Xingyun pinched Yin Li's chin, "Look at that face, what a beautiful face! Why are you practicing poisonous arts!"

Looking at her reborn face, Yin Li knelt down before Wu Xingyun and said, "Thank you for giving me a second chance, Grandma."

"Alright, from now on you are a member of my Lingjiu Palace. I'll give you two choices: either go back to Dai Qisi's side, or go to Granny Yu's place and become an ordinary disciple of my Lingjiu Palace."

After thinking it over, Yin Li still couldn't bear to give up his feelings for Dai Qisi and returned to Dai Qisi's side.

Xiao Zhao and Dai Qisi were arranged to live with Chen Bangling and the others; everyone who came out of the main hall brought their families.

For example, Chen Bangling and Liu Keling, Ding Xuelian and Shangguan Yan, and then Dai Qisi, Xiao Zhao and Yin Li.

Lin Zhu only paid attention to it on the first day and learned that Dai Qisi was the Holy Maiden of Light and Xiao Zhao was the Little Holy Maiden of Light.

I stopped paying attention to it after that.

For the next month or so, he focused on cultivation.

Not long ago, Yaoyue rode a white eagle and brought Lianxing back to Yihua Palace.

Huang Rong and the others returned one after another.

Among them, Ji Ru brought Yan Fei to Lingjiu Palace and brought a message.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou abdicated and went into seclusion deep within the palace. Crown Prince Ji Zhao will soon ascend the throne.

Meanwhile, the regional princes of different surnames would travel to the capital on the second day of the second lunar month to receive their investiture, but only one heir apparent would go.

The Northern Sui Dynasty was the first to adopt this system.

Yang Jian died because he couldn't withstand the influx of Qi into his body.

Chapter 374 The Number One Under Heaven

Before Yang Jian died, Yang Yong was assassinated by an assassin sent by Goguryeo from the southeast and died of poisoning.

Yang Guang naturally inherited the throne, but was unable to go to the capital under the pretext of avenging his brother.

He then sent out a message that he would personally lead an expedition to destroy Goguryeo.

Fu Cailin, the pillar of the Goguryeo state in Pyongyang, felt wronged because he hadn't sent any assassins there!

More than two years ago, he sent his eldest disciple, Fu Junzhuo, to the Great Zhou, but she disappeared.

The second disciple, Fu Junyu, is still investigating Fu Junzhuo's whereabouts. It's impossible that he went to assassinate her himself.

What a huge black pot.

The Northern Sui Dynasty was located north of the Great Wall. The people there were fierce and the army was mainly composed of cavalry, exuding a murderous aura.

Yang Guang, under the pretext of avenging his brother, has already raised an army.

The Zhou royal family had the weakest control over the Northern Sui, and they were helpless in the face of this situation, since the Northern Sui was located north of the Great Wall!

With the Northern Sui Dynasty as a scapegoat, other kings of different surnames also caused trouble.

Ying Zheng refused to abdicate, and Liu Shan said he was unwell and not fit to travel far.

Seeing that Zhu Xiong Ying was still too young, Zhu Yuanzhang allowed Zhu Biao to remain in his position for a few more years.

Xiang Shaoyu completely ignored Ji Zhao.

Song Que had passed the position to Song Shidao long ago. Seeing that the other kings of different surnames did the same, he instructed Song Shidao to follow suit.

Only Prince Xiaobai of Qi, being too close to the capital and deeply influenced by the ideas of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, went to the capital.

Even before Ji Zhao ascended the throne, he knew that the Great Zhou was about to descend into chaos.

With the arrival of destiny, something called ambition has emerged among the kings. He doesn't know if he can recreate the world.

But with such overwhelming momentum, he had no room for retreat.

Yanfei sensed something was wrong, so she followed Ji Ru to Lingjiu Palace for refuge.

She didn't plan to go back to the palace; after all, apart from Ji Ru, she had nothing else to worry about.

As for the Yin Yang School, Donghuang Taiyi was just using her; it's better to get rid of her sooner rather than later.

This old fellow showed no intention of leaving through the void; she wasn't confident in her control over the Yin-Yang School.

Perhaps I will reach the next level of the world even before Donghuang Taiyi.

As for the members of the Yin Yang School group, let them fend for themselves.

With the world on the verge of chaos, no matter how powerful she is as a top-tier expert, she is still just a woman and needs to seek some protection.

There is nowhere safer than Lingjiu Palace.

Lin Zhu looked eastward. He had a premonition that the world would descend into chaos, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Before he could think much about it, a message came through in the group chat.

Feng Si Niang: Let me show you something fun—pictures.

Lin Zhu clicked on it and saw that it was a list.

The number one on the Heavenly Ranking: Zhang Sanfeng of Wudang, the founder of the Wudang School, a terrestrial immortal, whose strength is unparalleled in the world.

The second person: Donghuang Taiyi of the Yin-Yang School, the leader of the Yin-Yang School, a terrestrial immortal, whose specific combat strength is unknown, but it is likely below Zhang Sanfeng.

The third person: the third generation Guiguzi, whose name is unknown, is a terrestrial immortal, and whose specific combat strength is unknown.

The fourth person: Temujin, the Khan of the Steppe, a terrestrial immortal, who once fought three terrestrial immortals without being defeated.

The ninth person: Wu Xingyun of Lingjiu Palace in Tianshan, the first generation of the Xiaoyao Sect's eldest disciple, a terrestrial immortal, who overpowered Emperor Shitian and possessed extremely profound power.

The tenth person: Indra, the mysterious master of the Heavenly Gate, an immortal being.

The eleventh person: Sword Saint Dugu Jian, whose unique skill is Sword Twenty-Three. Once unleashed, this sword technique can destroy the heavens and the earth.

There are a total of twenty people on the Heavenly Ranking, but there are definitely more than twenty people in the Land Immortal Realm.

Huang Rong: How come Grandma is only ninth?

Wu Xingyun: That's about right. I know my own strength. Being ranked ahead of the Sword Saint is pretty good.

Feng Si Niang: I'm not showing you the strength rankings, look at another one, there's a surprise!

You Ruo: Which one?

Feng Si Niang: Here.

Lin Zhu clicked on it again.

The Heavenly Beauty List.

The number one beauty on the list is Lin Zhu. Although he is a man, he is unparalleled in appearance and can topple kingdoms. Anyone who sees him once will be driven mad with desire. Even the dashing Chu Liuxiang was moved when he first saw him and almost went astray.

Looking at the list, Lin Zhu felt as if she had been publicly executed.

Is this something to be proud of?

Liu Ruoxin: Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter! The number one beauty on the beauty list is actually Xiaozhu! What a surprise! @Linzhu @Fengsiniang

Wu Xingyun: The most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, truly deserving of the title.

Huang Rong: Little brother, you are now famous throughout the world.

Inviting the Moon: I approve of this list.

Zhu Qiqi: I'm convinced too.

Lin Zhu: Do you guys think it's fun?

Li Canghai: Are you stupid? You're capable of surpassing all of us and making the list of the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, and you're still not happy? You're a beauty, but not a pretty girl.

Zhao Min: That's right, that's right. The number one beauty in the martial arts world, she truly deserves the title. Do you think we have any objections?

Lin Zhu: I don't want to be on this list!

Li Qiushui: Your grandma is right below you, she must be so happy right now. Right, senior sister! @Wu Xingyun

Wu Xingyun: Can't you just be mute? @Li Qiushui

Li Qiushui: Oh right, I almost forgot. I'll continue my seclusion.

A red figure drifted over, and Dongfang Bai arrived beside Lin Zhu, holding a wine bottle in his hand. He tilted his head back and took a swig. "What's wrong? Are you really unhappy?"
