Chapter 118: Shortcut to Cultivation (2)
“Ningning, what is this?” After waking up, the Eight Desolate Divine Beast also began to circle around the huge Green Spirit Holy Grass, “This, this is the Green Spirit Holy Grass?”
After seeing it clearly, the Eight Desolate Divine Beast couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
"How is it? Isn't it amazing?" Wei Ning said proudly.
The Eight Desolate Divine Beast was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time. It was a pity that he was a stone, otherwise he could have used "stupefied" to express his feelings.
“How is this possible? Here, this ring… It doesn’t make sense…” The Eight Desolate Divine Beast muttered to himself. Obviously with his current IQ, he couldn’t figure out what was going on.
"It's a pity that you don't absorb spiritual power and only eat beast cores. Otherwise, I can share some with you when the Biling Holy Grass grows bigger. What a pity." Wei Ning was in a good mood.
As the Holy Green Spirit Grass continues to grow, its spiritual power will increase, and her cultivation will increase exponentially. Perhaps it won’t be long before she resolves the issues of the Azure Dragon Empire and can leave to travel to a wider world.
She had long planned to leave the palace and go out to see the world, but she was not strong enough. It was inconvenient .
Secondly, she also wanted to avenge the Crown Prince and Princess Qingtong. This was a matter of human relations and it seemed that she could not avoid it.
Stretching lazily, Wei Ning left the black jade ring. It was already dawn. Princess Shi was knocking on the door outside, asking her to wash up and have breakfast.
Wei Ning opened the door and let Concubine Shi in. They were not in Zuixian Tower. Concubine Shi was wearing a goose yellow skirt, a very plain color, and there were not too many gorgeous jewelry on her hair, which was simply tied up with a jade hairpin.
Without the heavy makeup and seductive charm, Princess Shi seems even more beautiful.
She felt a little embarrassed , fearing that her plain appearance would displease the prince. But after thinking it over, she decided that this was not Zuixianlou, and it would not be appropriate for her to act the same as before.
"Your Highness, General Sun Xiang was impeached for corruption this morning. I heard that the amount involved was huge, which angered the Regent. Now General Sun's mansion has been surrounded and sealed off by heavy troops."
While helping her comb her hair talked about the news that spread throughout Haojing this morning.
She was a smart woman. When she occasionally heard the Crown Prince and Duanmu Lei talking to each other, she guessed that they wanted to deal with the Fourth Prince, so she paid special attention to any news about the Fourth Prince.
"Oh? General Sun Xiang who holds the military power of the National Defense Army?" Wei Ning raised his head. He did not expect that the Duanmu family would act so quickly.
Sun Xiang is the biological uncle of the Fourth Prince Mu Tianhua. Concubine Sun was originally the illegitimate daughter of the Sun family. She was sent to the palace because she was out of favor, but was not chosen as a concubine. After working as a palace maid for several years, the emperor got drunk one day and visited Sun.
This woman was also very lucky. She got pregnant on the first try and secretly gave birth to the fourth prince. She raised the child in fear for half a month. By chance, she discovered that the fourth prince was quite talented, so she reported it to the emperor.
Those who have awakened spiritual power at birth are naturally geniuses. The emperor was naturally happy to have such a son. In addition, Sun was also quite pretty, so he gradually favored her.
Sun was a clever woman who knew how to win favor. With the help of her son, the Fourth Prince, she gradually gained a place in the harem.
The original Sun family rose to prominence because of the Fourth Prince. All the men in the family held official positions, and Sun Xiang, the eldest son of the Sun family, gradually became the commander of the National Defense Army and enjoyed great glory.
