From Princess in the Cold Palace to Empress in Heaven

As long as she could stand out at the Tiangang Conference and let the higher-ups of the Holy Academy see her talent and strength, even the Holy King Qingkong would not be able to do anything to her.

Soon, the two came to a magnificent city.

Although it is called a city, it has no city walls.

There are numerous towering and magnificent pavilions, endless rows of shops, magnificent palaces scattered around, and countless monks coming and going, making the place extremely bustling and prosperous.

Xu Xiuer stopped and pointed at a magnificent tower in the distance, like Optimus Prime.

"This is Baiwen Pavilion. Princess, please follow me."

"Yeah." Xiao Minghuang nodded.

The journey was smooth.

Many guards saw Xu Xiuer and bowed their heads to signal.

The two walked into a magic circle, and the next moment they arrived at the gate of a palace.

After walking a few steps inside, Xu Xiuer stood up straight and said loudly: "Xu Xiuer, please see Senior Sister!"

An indifferent response came from the hall: "Come in!"

Then the door of the hall opened, and Xu Xiuer led Xiao Minghuang in.

After entering the hall, a woman in a green shirt stood with her hands behind her back. She had a slender figure, delicate and rosy skin, and long, shiny black hair draped over her waist. She had an elegant and tranquil temperament, as if she was not of this world.

"Hello, Senior Sister Gu." Xu Xiuer bowed.

Xiao Minghuang also bowed.

"Okay, what do you want from me?"

The woman in green turned around, her eyes were clear and her tone was indifferent, as if she didn't care about anything.

It was the young master of Baiwen Pavilion, Gu Qingyu.

But her eyes fell on Xiao Minghuang.

"I have something to ask you, sister. This is my close friend Xiao Minghuang, from the southern border..." Xu Xiuer described in detail the problems Xiao Minghuang encountered in Hospital B2, looking forward to the answer from the woman in green.

Hearing this, Gu Qingyu's eyes became silent and she counted with her fingers.

After a moment, her gaze towards Xiao Minghuang became complicated.

"Xiu'er, I have something to do. I want to talk to your friend alone. You go ahead and do your work."

Xu Xiuer asked in confusion: "I have nothing to do! How is Senior Sister doing? Is it that the Holy King Qingkong is deliberately making things difficult for the princess? You can't just sit there and watch..."

"I know. Please go out for a while. I want to talk to Princess Xiao alone."

Xiao Minghuang could see that the young Pavilion Master seemed to be enduring something, so he stopped Xu Xiuer in time.

"Xiu'er, since the young master wants to talk to me alone, you can go and do your work. I will go out to find you later."

Hearing this, Xu Xiuer looked at her with some resentment and sighed, "Okay, I'll wait for you outside."

As Xu Xiuer's figure disappeared into the magic circle, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became quiet.

Xiao Minghuang did not say anything. She knew that the young Pavilion Master must have something special to say to her, otherwise he would not have asked Xu Xiuer to leave on purpose.

Amidst the silence, a voice suddenly rang out.

"...You and Qingkong...Saint King, how far have you come?"

256. Senior, please don’t do that!

The words were spoken haltingly, as if with a hint of embarrassment. Coming from the mouth of the little pavilion master, a beauty who was not worldly, it gave people an inexplicable sense of detachment.

Xiao Minghuang was slightly stunned, somewhat puzzled, what did "how far have you reached?"

"I don't quite understand what the young Pavilion Master meant by this."

The woman in green pursed her lips, her eyes scrutinizing, as if she could see through her.

"Don't play dumb in front of me. Six days ago, you were led by the Seventeenth Water Spirit King to the Second Courtyard. You were received at the door by Sister Sayuri, and then you went to Qingkong... the Saint King's... residence. You must explain everything that happened next to me, or don't even think about leaving here!"

As he spoke, Gu Qingyu exuded a terrifying aura of oppression.

A suffocating atmosphere enveloped the surroundings.

Xiao Minghuang's body trembled suddenly, and she quickly calmed down and replied: "We just chatted for a few minutes afterwards, nothing happened! Senior, what are you doing..."

She was a little confused.

The young Pavilion Master actually suspected what she had done with the Holy King Qingkong?

"Nothing happened?" Gu Qingyu raised her eyebrows. "Sister Sayuri has already told me that you stayed in the room for half an hour that day. And nothing happened?"

“This…” Xiao Minghuang was stunned for a moment, then her pretty face flushed: “Really not, at that time, Saint Queen Qingkong did tempt me… but I didn’t agree, so she let me go.”

Gu Qingyu sneered: "Do you think I will believe you?"

She didn't believe anything Xiao Minghuang said.

Ever since I had a chance glimpse of her at the Longevity Banquet three thousand years ago, I have never forgotten it in my life.

Over the years, Mu Qingkong has never been seen speaking politely to anyone, let alone letting anyone into her boudoir.

Even she had drunk a cup with Mu Qingkong at Mu Qingkong's longevity banquet many years ago.

But then again, she could figure out that there was no aura of the Supreme Saint on Xiao Minghuang, which showed that the other party was indeed not lying... However, the possibility that the Holy King Qingkong was the passive party could not be ruled out!

"Young Pavilion Master, I am wise. I have behaved uprightly and sat upright. If you do not believe me, I am willing to confront you face to face!"

Xiao Minghuang could see that the young leader of Baiwen Pavilion seemed to have a crush on Saint King Qingkong, so she could take advantage of this opportunity.

"Forget it, I won't argue with you, just go away!"

The young Pavilion Master snorted. She didn't dare to confront Mu Qingkong face to face. If she really had the courage, she wouldn't have asked her, an outsider, in a roundabout way.

Xiao Minghuang was confused by this inexplicable thing, but the purpose of this trip had not been achieved. If she left at this point, it would be a wasted trip, so she could only bite the bullet and ask:

"Young Pavilion Master, can this junior be admitted into the Baiwen Pavilion?"

Speaking of business, the young Pavilion Master temporarily suppressed the confusion in his heart and looked at Xiao Minghuang.

"Wow! That's not easy!"

There was a hint of surprise in her eyes: "You have a heavenly five-element spiritual root, an innate pure yang fire spiritual body, and you have even comprehended the realm of swordsmanship. It's really not simple. You have something!"

Xiao Minghuang smiled shyly: "Thank you for the compliment, Senior."

The young Pavilion Master looked at Xiao Minghuang carefully again.

The girl in front of me has a stunningly beautiful appearance, elegant and noble temperament, dignified and generous manners, and the faint smile on the corners of her mouth reveals an incomparable charm that makes people unable to take their eyes off.

An idea suddenly came to her mind. If it was such a girl, it should not be impossible for Mu Qingkong to fall in love with her, right?

But the next moment, she drove the thought out of her mind.

She has liked Mu Qingkong for so many years but has never been able to get what she wanted. Why is it that this little girl wins Mu Qingkong's heart as soon as she appears?

This is not fair!

Gu Qingyu’s mind was racing. Xiao Minghuang’s sudden appearance was a variable and she had to seize the opportunity.

Simply driving her away or getting rid of her would not do her any good, nor would it change the current situation.

Moreover, if Mu Qingkong finds out in the future that it was her who was behind the incident, it would undoubtedly make their relationship worse.

You know, the last time she spoke to Mu Qingkong was at the Longevity Banquet when Mu Qingkong was promoted to a saint three thousand years ago.

She might as well go with the flow and use the power of others to establish a relationship with Xiao Minghuang and Mu Qingkong. As long as she can create a connection between the two people, there will definitely be a possibility between them!

As for Xiao Minghuang’s threat?

nonexistent!

She is the young master of Baiwen Pavilion and the renowned Saint King Qianyu. Could it be that she is not as good as a mere little girl?

As long as Mu Qingkong truly realizes her charm, he will definitely fall in love with her wholeheartedly!

After making up his mind, Gu Qingyu coughed and said, "Princess Xiao, I know everything about you, but you are indeed a disciple of the Second Academy. Even I cannot change this. This is the rule of the Holy Academy. I am deeply sorry."

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang paused. After holding it in for such a long time, this is all he could say?

"This...Senior..."

"But don't be anxious. Rules are dead, but people are alive. As long as you can answer one thing for me, I can recommend you to be promoted directly to become a disciple of the Sun Temple, and you can bypass the process of registering at the Second Academy. How do you think?"

Gu Qingyu said slowly, his eyes flickering.

"Oh? Please speak, senior." Xiao Minghuang immediately became alert.

She was not stupid and knew that this young Pavilion Master was definitely not a good man.

You should know that the promotion path within the Holy Academy is very clear, generally from outer court disciples to inner court disciples, and then to disciples of the two halls.

Once you become a disciple of the two halls, it means you have inexhaustible resources and a status second only to the elders in the Holy Realm. You can even directly participate in the competition for the candidate for the Holy Maiden of Childbearing without any selection!

This opportunity is probably more precious than becoming the first disciple!

So, what she wanted to do must be very difficult.

There was a strange look in Gu Qingyu's beautiful eyes. She slowly walked down the steps and approached Xiao Minghuang. Finally, she stopped less than a foot away from her. She stood in front of Xiao Minghuang and grabbed her hand, looking down on her and looking superior.

"I want you to go back to Mu Qingkong, please her, know all her preferences, understand her personality, her habits, everything about her!"

She spoke word by word, her tone still soft, but with a domineering tone that brooked no room for argument: "I want to know everything about her!"

Xiao Minghuang's pupils suddenly shrank, and he was extremely shocked: "Senior...you..."

It’s really a bit abnormal!

"Hehe...some things just have to be dealt with by any means necessary." Gu Qingyu pinched her palm, curled her lips and smiled: "I can hear your voice now, don't think about messy things!"

Xiao Minghuang was suddenly shocked!

"Ah! Senior, please don't!"

257. All old guys are bad!

The moment the words fell.

Xiao Minghuang's hand was violently shaken away, and he staggered and took several steps back, almost falling down.

Gu Qingyu's pretty face flushed, her eyes were cold, and she said sternly: "I told you not to think about such messy things. How come your mind is filled with so much... crap at such a young age!"

"Hmm..." Xiao Minghuang stood firm, feeling a little aggrieved. What she was thinking was her own business. What did it have to do with others?

"It was you who eavesdropped on my thoughts, yet you blame me instead. This young Pavilion Master is really unreasonable!"

There was a flash of resentment in Xiao Minghuang's eyes, but she didn't dare show it. She just lowered her head, looking like she was being bullied.

"Okay, I won't say any more. Remember, you must complete the task I gave you!"

"Yes." Xiao Minghuang responded obediently.

Looking at Xiao Minghuang's well-behaved and obedient appearance, a hint of complexity flashed across Gu Qingyu's eyes.

She is not a cold-hearted person, otherwise she would not have been able to forget Mu Qingkong after only meeting him once.

She knew in her heart that this matter had nothing to do with Xiao Minghuang.

She knew that Xiao Minghuang had a Taoist partner and had rejected Mu Qingkong, but she still asked her to lurk around Mu Qingkong. This was an extremely difficult thing to ask.

This is entirely because of her selfish desires.

Gu Qingyu felt a sense of guilt in her heart, and she waved her hand. A suction force suddenly appeared, pulling Xiao Minghuang to her front.

"Lift your head," she ordered.

Xiao Minghuang raised his head and looked at her in confusion.

"Open your mouth!" Gu Qingyu ordered again.

Xiao Minghuang hesitated for a moment, but still did as he was told, because when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head.

A crystal clear pill was stuffed into her mouth.

The pill melts in the throat, sweet and refreshing.

Xiao Minghuang frowned and swallowed it, then asked, "What is this?"
