From Princess in the Cold Palace to Empress in Heaven

She asked slightly respectfully.

"This is why I came here. If you want to find your partner, come with me."

The voice of the Great Void Bright Immortal Venerable was ethereal and distant, moderate and peaceful, but it was impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang showed hesitation. Right now, she was facing an innate immortal alone. The enemy was strong and she was weak, the enemy was in the dark and she was in the light. The wisest choice was to take the opportunity to escape and then return to heaven to ask Changsheng Tianzun for help.

569. Sister Changli

however.

Of course Xiao Minghuang also understood.

Facing an innate immortal, she probably has no hope of escape.

"If you don't want to, you can leave."

That ethereal and grand voice sounded again.

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang knew that the other party was trying to provoke him.

After pondering for a long time, Xiao Minghuang finally nodded.

"The younger generation is willing to go."

However, Xiao Minghuang did not completely ignore it. She knew that if the Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable was a congenital immortal, he could take her life without even a flick of his little finger.

After all, the gap is too huge!

Therefore, Xiao Minghuang knew that the Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable must have other plans for her, so she was safe for the time being.

Whoosh!

The next moment, Xiao Minghuang moved his body, rushed towards the golden arch and entered it.

The world behind the Golden Arches is vast and boundless, the sky is clear and blue, and everything is quiet, with only the occasional sounds of birds and insects.

This world is extremely vast, with a vast sky and majestic earth. Everywhere is filled with rich laws and immortal order. Even a speck of dust is stained with fragments of immortal laws, containing a hint of immortal charm, mysterious and unpredictable.

There are even laws that interweave into rivers, stretching between heaven and earth, intertwining and colliding with each other, bursting out with brilliant divine light.

Such a scene is truly magnificent.

Especially, when she set foot here, she felt that her whole soul was baptized, she felt refreshed and full of vitality, as if she had taken a top-grade magic medicine!

The most prosperous world Xiao Minghuang had ever been to was the main world of the Li Yan Immortal Kingdom, but compared to this, it was like a remote and desolate countryside and could not be compared at all!

Even the Changsheng Palace where she had stayed for a short time was inferior to this!

"This is where?"

Xiao Minghuang exclaimed in a low voice.

She looked around, dazzled.

This place is like the legendary holy land of immortals.

How beautiful is this?

"This is the new mountain and sea world."

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded, causing Xiao Minghuang to turn around abruptly. But he saw someone standing behind him.

Her clothes rustled, her black hair was draped over her shoulders, her skin was fair, her appearance was extraordinary, and her beautiful eyes were as deep as a cold pond, ancient and vicissitudes of life, as if they contained the boundless universe, making people dare not look at them directly. They were also like the abyss and valley, daunting and as if they weighed a thousand pounds.

Xiao Minghuang's pupils suddenly shrank. She could sense that, although the voice of the woman in front of her was different from the previous one with a grand and ethereal sound, the aura she exuded was exactly the same.

Therefore, the woman in front of him should be the Lord of the Four Seas, the Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable himself.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her inner emotions, and saluted solemnly: "Hello, senior."

The Lord of the Four Seas nodded without further explanation. He just glanced at her lightly, as if he saw through her.

"There is another person inside you. Don't you want to let her out too?" she said in a flat tone.

Hearing this, Xiao Minghuang's heart skipped a beat.

How did the Great Xu Ming Immortal know that there was another person inside her body?

You know, not long after she set out, Ye Ruoshui entered the small world inside her body, and she acted alone all the way.

The Great Immortal Master Xu Ming should not know about this matter.

Suddenly, Xiao Minghuang's mind raced and he quickly came to a conclusion.

There was someone mixed in with the pioneering team. He was a spy for the Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable. He revealed the fact that she brought Ye Ruoshui out.

Xiao Minghuang suppressed her emotions temporarily. She knew that since she had been seen through, there was no need to hide any longer.

As long as Ye Ruoshui doesn't leave her side, they will always be able to share life and death together.

"Senior, you have a good eye. I obey your orders."

Xiao Minghuang cupped his hands and released Ye Ruoshui from the small world inside his body.

Swah——

Light rain fell, and Ye Ruoshui's delicate body appeared in the air. She opened her eyes, looked around, and a hint of surprise flashed in her big, dark and lively eyes.

Obviously, she didn't expect to meet a stranger, and it seemed that he was not simple.

"Your Highness?"

She called out tentatively, staring at the Great Xu Ming Immortal in front of her with some vigilance.

"Yes." Xiao Minghuang responded, "This is the Great Immortal Master..."

Hearing this, Ye Ruoshui quickly bowed and said:

"Junior Ye Ruoshui greets Senior Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable!"

As she spoke, her eyebrows were curved and she was smiling, appearing to be quite well-behaved and sensible.

The Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable looked at her, his face as calm as before, without any ripples.

"No need to be polite, just follow me."

The words fell.

She reached out and flicked her sleeves.

Wow~

Suddenly, a ray of fairy light descended.

Xiao Minghuang held Ye Ruoshui's hand tightly. The next moment, they both felt their bodies lighten and they were already riding on clouds and flying into the air, disappearing without a trace.

......

Heading northwards, traveling across billions of miles, Xiao Minghuang saw one amazing sight after another.

In this world, unlike the heavens or the universe, there is a main world in every fairyland, and a central city is erected in each world. All living beings, regardless of their race, mortals, or cultivators, live and multiply around the central city.

Along the way, Xiao Minghuang saw that in this new mountain and sea world, not only did the creatures not have a central city, but even ordinary or larger cities did not exist...

All she saw were endless mountains, boundless desert plains, rushing rivers, and even an icy land covered with snowflakes. There was no city of any kind.

She only saw that, in all kinds of environments, the creatures of the new mountain and sea world all lived alone and went their own way. Even if they lived on the same mountain, even if they looked at each other face to face, they would simply exchange glances without saying a word.

Ye Ruoshui was slightly surprised and said, "There isn't even a normal settlement here!"

Immortal Venerable Daxuming slowed down his pace, glanced at her, and said, "The creatures in the new mountains and seas all live and survive on their own, and rarely communicate with each other."

"But if people don't communicate with each other...how can they survive?"

Ye Ruoshui couldn't help but say that she couldn't imagine how she would survive alone if she left His Highness and her sisters.

"In the heavens and the star fields of the universe, there are also some ascetics. Since they embarked on the path of cultivation, they have cut off all contact with others, including their parents, brothers, relatives and friends. They either choose a secret place to practice in seclusion or travel around. But there are too few such people..."

Xiao Minghuang frowned and said: "It seems that everyone in the new Shanhai Realm is like this..."

At this point, she realized that something seemed wrong, and continued to add: "Of course, I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with this way of life, it's just that everyone has their own ideas. I completely respect the lifestyle of the creatures in the new mountain and sea world, and I have no opinions or suggestions on this!"

Xiao Minghuang looked serious.

The Immortal Venerable Daxuming glanced at her calmly and said softly, "The people in the Heavenly Court have their own way of speaking..."

Xiao Minghuang smiled slightly awkwardly and said nothing.

"If you leave for too long, things will indeed change." Great Void Bright Immortal Venerable shook his head and said, "Come with me. You will have a long time to observe the situation in the new mountain and sea world. There is no need to rush."

After saying that, she took another step and walked away.

Xiao Minghuang and Ye Ruoshui looked at each other and immediately followed.

"Your Highness, she speaks so strangely. What does she mean by 'left for too long'? It feels like there is something else behind her words..."

Ye Ruoshui quietly pulled at the corner of Xiao Minghuang's clothes. The words of the Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable sounded very strange.

Left for too long... This sentence obviously means that she has been here before, otherwise she would not use such words, but rather "first time here" or "strange because of something new" or something like that.

"I shouldn't have been here before, otherwise how could I have forgotten?"

Xiao Minghuang frowned and shook her head secretly.

She recalled carefully and searched the memories in her mind, but she couldn't remember when she had ever set foot in this world.

"Your Highness, I am a little worried..."

Although the Great Xu Ming Immortal Venerable did not show any hostility, she still felt an inexplicable oppressive force, which made her dare not slack off at all. She only hoped to get rid of this oppression as soon as possible.

Ye Ruoshui grabbed Xiao Minghuang's arm, full of worry, her little face twisted into a ball, and asked: "Will she hurt us?"

"Don't be afraid, now that you are here, make the best of it, I'll take care of everything!"

Xiao Minghuang patted the back of Ye Ruoshui's hand with his backhand, smiled gently, and signaled her to be at ease, but at the same time, his heart was lifted.

......

New mountain and sea boundaries, the far north, and the glacial valley.

There is snow here all year round, the cold wind is howling, and a huge ice and snow peak hundreds of feet high stands in the middle, like a pillar supporting the sky.

On the top of the giant peak stands a majestic white palace, which looks like the Milky Way falling from the sky and hanging in the depths of the sky.

In this white jade palace, two people were sitting cross-legged.

"Wu Chang, do you think she will really be the person in the prophecy?"

In the quiet and empty hall, a woman wearing a snow-white fox fur coat, with a hint of doubt on her beautiful face, asked the middle-aged man beside her.

Her appearance was stunning. Her white fur was like a layer of holy hoarfrost covering her. Her figure was slender, with curves in all the right places, a slender waist, and plump buttocks.

Compared to her, the middle-aged man standing next to her was much inferior. Although he was wearing a golden robe, his appearance was ordinary. However, his eyes contained vicissitudes of life, and one could tell at a glance that he had been through the years and had accumulated a lot of experience.

Wu Chang said: "If it weren't for her, how could the seal of the Immortal Sealing List be unlocked?"

"This happened so long ago that no one can say for sure. But she feels very familiar to me."

"Oh? Zhiming, tell me what you think."

Zhiming said seriously, "The prophecy says, 'When the stars are in their right positions, all spirits will be eternal.' The reincarnation of the universe has a beginning and an end, and the restart of the era has its own destiny. Even if you and I are innate Tai Chi immortals, we are just living in reincarnation and cannot be truly eternal. If you want to survive the catastrophe of the restart of the universe era, you must have a transcendent divine object, but a divine object can only resist one catastrophe. Now the catastrophe is coming, and the restart of the era is just around the corner. If the Son of the Stars in the prophecy does not come, then this era will end. How can we talk about the eternity of all spirits?"

Wu Chang said: "So, she is the 'Child of the Stars' in the prophecy, destined to make all spirits eternal?"

Zhiming said: "It's hard to say, but if she is, then we should help her... Moreover, even if she is not, if we plan to return to the universe and rebuild the eight mountains and nine seas, then we must get her help."

Wu Chang said: "Indeed, even if she is not the 'Son of the Stars' in the prophecy, she is at least the 'protagonist' of this era. If she joins us, destroying the Heavenly Palace will be a piece of cake!"

Zhiming said: "...By the way, is there any news about other people?"

Wu Chang said: "No, the only immortals who escaped from the Heavenly Palace this time are you, me, Xu Ming and the other two. The other ones are Jin Chang, Jin Xiang and the others. There is no news about the others."

Zhiming said: "Speaking of Jinchang... Alas, this guy really caused us a big trouble. How come he offended her right after escaping?"

"You can't blame Jin Chang for this. He wants to build a bridgehead for us in the universe for all of us."

"...Of course I know this, but if she blames Jin Chang, how can we explain it?"

Wu Chang frowned and said, "Just keep it a secret from her. There's nothing to worry about."

"This is not a good idea. If she finds out about this in the future, she might turn against us."

Zhiming looked worried.

"Then we'll keep it a secret forever!" Wu Chang snorted coldly, and said, "When we return to the universe and restore our former glory, we'll tell her, and she won't be able to turn against us!"
