From Princess in the Cold Palace to Empress in Heaven

"I am..."

The words have not yet fallen.

The formation guarding the cave suddenly opened a hole, and a girl in a light yellow dress flew out gracefully, and landed in front of the people in the blink of an eye.

It was Ye Ruoshui.

"Senior Sister Ye, I finally have the chance to meet you today." Li Han hurriedly bowed, a flattering smile on his face.

However, Ye Ruoshui ignored the compliments from the two.

"Your Highness!"

She shouted with joy and rushed forward excitedly.

"Senior Sister Ye...what are you doing?"

The Li siblings were stunned. They didn't expect Ye Ruoshui to be so enthusiastic towards this strange female cultivator.

You know, Ye Ruoshui has an aloof and cold personality. On the day she won the championship, she rejected the olive branches thrown by many disciples from the holy places in the academy. She kept to herself and ignored everyone.

They even suspected that they were dazzled, or that Ye Ruoshui was possessed by some demon.

Otherwise, why would she show such enthusiasm towards a stranger?

This completely overturned the image of Ye Ruoshui in their minds.

"haven't seen you for a long time..."

Xiao Minghuang smiled and stretched out his arms to hug the beautiful girl who rushed towards him.

"Hehe... Your Highness, why did it take you so long to come and see me?"

Ye Ruoshui stuck out her tongue playfully.

She is already very cute and pretty, and with her naughty look, she looks even more lively and charming.

"Didn't you just come out of seclusion?" Xiao Minghuang couldn't help laughing and pinched her beautiful nose lovingly: "Does Ruoshui miss me?"

Ye Ruoshui raised her fair and delicate oval face, her eyes bright as stars, and looked at Xiao Minghuang with a gentle gaze.

"Ah."

Xiao Minghuang responded softly.

These words contained too much emotion and made Ye Ruoshui's heart pound. Her cheeks flushed and she lowered her head and smiled shyly.

The sweet interaction between these two people made the Li brothers and sisters next to them dumbfounded.

Who is this female cultivator?

Why does Ye Ruoshui treat her like his own Taoist partner?

Even if sisters are close, they wouldn't be like this, right?

Xiao Minghuang ignored the two people's reactions and even felt that they were a bit annoying.

She stroked Ye Ruoshui's black hair and said apologetically, "I'm sorry that I've been delayed in my cultivation during this period."

"I don't really blame Your Highness..."

Ye Ruoshui rubbed her cheek and said in a tender voice.

The words fell.

She suddenly turned her head, the tenderness on her face disappeared instantly, and she stared at the Li brothers and sisters beside her, frowning and asking, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"Uh..." Li Han and his sister were stunned for a moment, then scratched their heads awkwardly, "I'm Li Han, this is my sister Li Ling, I would like to ask Senior Sister Ye to help me refine the Nine Patterns Nourishing Qi Pill..."

Then he quickly took out a storage bag from his sleeve.

"Here are the materials and the payment. I wonder if Senior Sister Ye can help with this?"

Ye Ruoshui glanced at the storage bag and found that it contained enough materials for refining five furnaces. She put away the storage bag and nodded: "I agree."

"Thank you, thank you very much."

Hearing this, the Li brothers and sisters were overjoyed and quickly bowed to express their gratitude.

"You are Welcome."

Ye Ruoshui waved her hand and glanced at the two of them again: "Do you have anything else to do?"

The two men were not ignorant of the ways of the world. They naturally saw that Senior Sister Ye and her Taoist partner had reunited after a long separation, so they did not dare to disturb them and immediately said goodbye.

"Ahem, since Junior Sister Ye is going to retreat to make pills, we won't disturb her. Bye." Li Han coughed twice and pulled his sister's arm.

The two men bowed and turned to leave.

After they walked away, Xiao Minghuang looked at Ye Ruoshui with satisfaction and said with emotion: "Ruoshui, you have really grown up."

"Your Highness, I am not as good as you say!"

Hearing this, Ye Ruoshui pouted and leaned on Xiao Minghuang's shoulder like a spoiled child.

"No, you have become better than before."

Xiao Minghuang touched her head and smiled gently.

"Hehe...Your Highness really knows how to make people happy."

Ye Ruoshui pursed her lips and smiled, a charming blush appeared on her pure and lovely face, which was very charming.

Xiao Minghuang looked at the cute and lovely Ye Ruoshui in his arms, and a bright smile broke out on his face.

I have been feeling heavy and depressed these days. Today, after reuniting with Ye Ruoshui, I can finally relax.

Afterwards, the two of them walked into the cave intimately.

The furnishings inside were simple, with only a few simple pieces of furniture and a scarlet alchemy furnace in the center.

The alchemy furnace is about ten feet high, with countless complex and obscure runes engraved on its surface, faintly emitting an ancient and vicissitudes of life atmosphere.

Apart from this, there is nothing else in the cave.

261. Heavenly Grade Alchemy Furnace

After a tender moment, Xiao Minghuang hugged Ye Ruoshui and sat quietly on the bed.

Ye Ruoshui seemed to want to say something but hesitated. After thinking for a long time, she finally said something.

"Your Highness, I plan to take some time to go to Dongling."

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang was stunned: "What are you going to do there?"

Although Dongling also belongs to the Hundred Saints State, it is far away from the Holy Academy. The ruler of Dongling, the Changsheng Su family, is also in decline. No member of the family has become a saint for a long time. There is even a voice that believes that the Su family should no longer be ranked among the Hundred Saints forces.

Moreover, Ye Ruoshui had just arrived at the Holy Academy, why did she suddenly have such an idea?

She had to ask for clarification.

"This is what happened..."

Ye Ruoshui told about her acquaintance with Su Changge from Dongling.

After saying that, she stared at Xiao Minghuang's eyes nervously, as if she was afraid of being rejected.

"...So that's how it is." Xiao Minghuang nodded slightly, "I support you to go."

Hearing this, Ye Ruoshui was startled at first, then she cheered and clung to Xiao Minghuang like an octopus, kissing her hard on the face: "Great! I love you the most!"

"Little girl..."

Looking at Ye Ruoshui who was so happy, Xiao Minghuang shook his head and chuckled.

The little girl grew up, and she suddenly developed the mentality of an old mother, hoping that Ye Ruoshui would grow up happily and happily.

Ye Ruoshui took a deep breath and said seriously, "But I shouldn't be able to leave recently. I won the championship in the alchemy meeting before, and the head of the three academies summoned me and promised that as long as I can refine a heavenly elixir, I will be recommended to the Dan Ding Pavilion and become the personal disciple of the Pavilion Master of the Dan Ding Pavilion."

"Why doesn't the head of the Third Academy personally accept you as his disciple?"

Xiao Minghuang asked, logically speaking, since one has entered the Third Academy, one is a disciple of the Third Academy, and the head of the Third Academy does not need to recommend a disciple with excellent qualifications to others.

Ye Ruoshui was silent for a while, then said, "She did, but I refused."

Seeing Xiao Minghuang's puzzled look, Ye Ruoshui explained: "Most of the three academies' inheritance are combat skills. Your Highness also knows that I am not interested in fighting and killing, so Danding Pavilion is the most suitable place for me..."

"So, the head of the Third Academy set a condition that is difficult to achieve in order not to lose a talented disciple like you?"

"Yes!" Ye Ruoshui smiled sweetly, "She said that if I can refine a Heaven-grade elixir in the Yuantai Realm, she will recommend me to join the Danding Pavilion. She thinks I can't do it, but I want to do it. I will definitely be able to do it!"

After saying this, a strong belief emerged in her eyes.

"Your Highness, do you think I can do it?" Ye Ruoshui blinked and asked expectantly.

"Of course, I believe you can do it."

Looking at the girl's expectant expression, Xiao Minghuang smiled and encouraged her without hesitation.

As long as it is something Ye Ruoshui wants to do, she will spare no effort to make it happen!

Although Xiao Minghuang didn't know how to make pills, he knew how difficult it was.

Generally speaking, if you want to refine earth-grade elixirs, you need to have the foundation of Yuantai realm cultivation.

When Ye Ruoshui reached the Yongquan Realm, he was able to refine earth-grade elixirs with the help of the innate fire.

Now that Ye Ruoshui is in the Yuantai realm, it seems that refining heavenly grade elixirs is not that difficult.

"Your Highness, what are you looking at?"

Ye Ruoshui noticed that Xiao Minghuang had a dazed look in his eyes, as if he was staring at the alchemy furnace in the room, so he started to ask.

"This alchemy furnace...is it of mid-grade earth grade?"

"Yes, this is the prize for the champion of the alchemy competition. Without this alchemy furnace, I wouldn't dare to say that I can refine a heavenly-grade elixir."

"Can you give it... to me?"

Xiao Minghuang was a little hesitant. After all, this was the alchemy furnace that Ye Ruoshui had won with great difficulty. It would be inappropriate for her to just take it away without any reason.

Hearing this, Ye Ruoshui's smile froze on her face, and then she nodded: "If your highness wants it, take it!"

Xiao Minghuang didn't say anything extra. He stretched out his hand, put the alchemy furnace into his sleeve, and then put it back.

"I gave it back to you."

next moment.

She waved her hand again, and a small purple-gold furnace flew out from her sleeves and hovered in front of Ye Ruoshui.

This small furnace is more than half a person's height, with colorful light flowing all over it, which is gorgeous and dazzling, and full of spiritual energy.

"This is a Heaven Grade Alchemy Furnace, a gift for you. I hope you can get what you want."

Xiao Minghuang looked at Ye Ruoshui with a smile, waiting for her reaction.

Ye Ruoshui stared at the purple-gold furnace with sparkling eyes, her beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and she murmured, "Your Highness, this... is this a heavenly-grade furnace? It's so beautiful!"

She hugged the Heavenly Grade Alchemy Furnace excitedly, stroking its delicate patterns like a treasure, and was filled with joy.

"um, yes."

Looking at Ye Ruoshui's happy expression, Xiao Minghuang smiled faintly and his mood also became cheerful.

"Thank you, Your Highness! I'm really happy!" Ye Ruoshui was so happy that she couldn't help but throw herself into Xiao Minghuang's arms.

"As long as you are happy." Xiao Minghuang smiled, rubbed her head lovingly, and held her in his arms.

"Your Highness, let's go to bed early..."

Ye Ruoshui leaned shyly in Xiao Minghuang's arms, her voice becoming smaller and smaller.

"Hmm..." Xiao Minghuang nodded.

The next moment, Xiao Minghuang and Ye Ruoshui both fell on the soft bedding.

There was no conversation all night, only sex.

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the window.

"Whoo~"

Xiao Minghuang opened her sleepy eyes and stretched lazily, revealing her charming curves.

She sat up slowly and glanced down at Ye Ruoshui beside her.
