Chapter 231: Your Majesty, is this proactive enough?
Li Daoxuan was sitting alone beside the spirit pond and saw the ninth-grade lotus in the pond.
He suddenly felt a sense of guilt. Was he playing tricks on the Empress in front of Sister Yu?
He used the water escape technique, walked on the water, and came to the ninth-grade lotus.
Li Daoxuan could feel that there was a pure and flawless life nurtured within it. With her breathing, the spiritual energy of the entire Qingming Realm gathered here, pouring into it like a whirlwind and transforming into her tremendous life potential.
This reminded him of Monkey King.
Monkey King is a piece of the sky-repairing stone created by the goddess Nuwa. It was nurtured after absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon for countless years. So when he was born, he emitted a ray of golden light, which alarmed the thirty-three heavens and even made the Jade Emperor lower his eyes.
I wonder what kind of miracle will appear between heaven and earth when the lotus blooms?
Li Daoxuan had a premonition that Sister Yu would undergo a complete transformation at that time, and might even become a powerful Yangshen!
"Sister Yu, I'm here to see you."
Li Daoxuan gently stroked the petals of the lotus.
The next moment, he felt the lotus move slightly, as if responding to his words.
There was a hint of joy in Li Daoxuan's eyes.
"Sister Yu, I won't let you wait too long. I will definitely defeat the Empty-Dull Ghost King and refine the Supreme Golden Liquid to help you grow quickly!"
The Supreme Golden Liquid can not only heal the Master's injuries, but also accelerate the maturation of the Ninth-Rank Lotus. It even has additional benefits for Sister Yu's growth, making her Lotus Dharma Body more promising.
Therefore, he is determined to gain control of the Underworld!
“You’re here.”
A cold voice suddenly sounded.
Li Daoxuan turned around and found that the queen had been standing by the pool at some point. She had an indifferent expression and looked at him calmly, without any of the charm she had before.
Li Daoxuan smiled gently and said, "My Lady, you are back."
Lady in green was slightly startled, and felt that his tone was a little strange.
However, the next moment, she saw Li Daoxuan walking on the water, striding towards her, and finally stopped beside her, very close.
She frowned slightly and was about to take a step back, but she didn't expect Li Daoxuan to boldly hold her hand.
While holding it, knead it carefully.
"My lady, is this proactive enough?"
Under her frozen gaze, Li Daoxuan showed a brilliant smile.
…
Fairy Que is spreading her wings and flying in the Qingming Realm. She now has another identity, the Qingming Inspector. She has to fly three times a day, leaving no corner untouched to prevent enemies from sneaking in.
One day, she was on patrol when she suddenly felt a brilliant divine light bursting out from the direction of the lotus pond.
In an instant, thousands of divine lights illuminated the entire Qingming Realm. A beautiful figure with long fluttering hair floated above the Qingming Realm, her eyes filled with anger.
Boom!
The ground of the Qingming Realm was shaking, and the stars in the sky were dim. With the anger of the Green-Robed Lady, the water of the Yellow Springs boiled, the red lotus fire burned, and even the majestic and vast Yama Mountains began to roll down rocks.
Fairy Que became anxious and thought to herself that something was wrong. She was afraid that the queen had encountered a strong enemy.
She had followed the Queen for hundreds of years, but this was the first time she saw her so angry. Could it be that the powerful enemy had destroyed the ninth-grade lotus?
She spread her wings and prepared to fly to the lotus pond.
Not only her, but all the ghosts in the Qingming Realm were alarmed. The army of ghost soldiers quickly gathered and moved towards the lotus pond. For a moment, the flags were like feathers, the war horses were neighing, and the cavalrymen in heavy armor were like a torrent of steel.
But at this moment, the voice of Lady in Green rang out from the clouds, echoing throughout the Qingming Realm.
"They are not strong enemies. Please retreat."
After hearing this, the army stopped.
Many ghost officials and ghost generals breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the queen was fine, everything would be fine.
They couldn't imagine what would happen if the Qingming Realm lost its queen.
But what happened just now to make the queen so angry?
…
Fairy Que was worried and wanted to fly over to take a look. At this time, a figure flew towards her.
To be exact, he fell over.
"Help--"
The man kept spinning in the air and tried to use his cloud-summoning magic several times, but was swept away by a strong wind, which broke his balance and made him unable to fly.
Fairy Que's eyes lit up. Li Daoxuan?
She flapped her wings and flew towards Li Daoxuan, and caught him on her back before he landed.
"Li Daoxuan, you've come at the right time. Something seems to have happened to the queen. Let's go check it out!"
Li Daoxuan lay on her back with lifeless eyes. He felt dizzy and dazed. If he had not eaten anything, he would have even wanted to vomit.
"No... I'm fine."
He took a breath and finally regained some strength, and said, "I made her angry just now."
"Strange, why is she so angry?"
"It was clearly tacitly agreed before!"
"Is it because I'm not proactive enough?"
Li Daoxuan was really puzzled at the moment. The empress, who had always been very kind to him, actually threw him away with one sleeve today. The terrifying momentum just now also made Li Daoxuan realize the strength of the empress.
He thought that he was already a master after entering the Yin Shen realm, but in front of the Empress just now, he felt that he was no different from an ant.
If the queen wanted to kill him, he would have become a corpse by now, and there would be no way he could do anything about it.
Fairy Que asked curiously, "What did you do to make the Queen so angry?"
After a pause, she suddenly asked in surprise: "Could it be that you... stole the bugs from the queen?"
Li Daoxuan rolled his eyes and said, "Do you think everyone likes to eat bugs as much as you do?"
"Fairy Que, take me to see the Queen. I have something important to discuss with her."
Fairy Que snorted in a very arrogant manner and said, "You made the queen angry, so you are a bad person. Why should I take you with me? If we didn't have some friendship in the past, I would have thrown you down long ago !"
Li Daoxuan didn't say anything, but took out a can of bugs.
The bird fairy turned her head and said, "Sit tight, take off!"
Li Daoxuan: “…”
…
Soon, the man and the bird landed in front of Yanfushan's sleeping palace.
Lady in green had just returned to her bedroom and sealed the door with her magical powers.
Li Daoxuan stepped forward and shouted, "Madam, Li Daoxuan wants to see you!"
The bedroom was quiet, without any sound.
While eating the insects, Fairy Que laughed and said, "Li Daoxuan, you have finally come to this day. The Queen doesn't want to see you anymore."
Li Daoxuan took a deep breath and continued loudly: "Madam, Li Daoxuan wants to see you!"
Still no one answered.
Li Daoxuan sighed lightly and wanted to retreat, but then he remembered what the empress had said before, that she liked those who were proactive and domineering.
Maybe this is the Queen testing me?
Thinking of this, Li Daoxuan decided...
"You want to force your way in?"
Fairy Que's eyes lit up, and she thought that Li Daoxuan had finally come to his senses and no longer wanted to return to the world of the living.
He probably wanted to be beaten to death by the Queen, and then have his soul remain in the Qingming Realm. This would be good, as he would be able to play with her often in the future.
Li Daoxuan rolled his eyes at her and said, "Do I look like I'm seeking death?"
After saying this, he made hand seals, his hair fell, and he turned into dozens of Li Daoxuan, who stood in front of the bedroom and shouted loudly together.
"Your Majesty, Li Daoxuan wants to see you!"
"Your Majesty, Li Daoxuan wants to see you!"
"Your Majesty, Li Daoxuan wants to see you!"
…
The bird fairy covered her ears and thought to herself, you are so noisy.
At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and a green light flashed by. The next moment, all of Li Daoxuan's clones turned into stone. Even Li Daoxuan's mouth was closed by an invisible force.
Fairy Que was so shocked that she somersaulted and laughed, "Haha, Li Daoxuan, you have no mouth!"
Li Daoxuan was shocked and quickly took out the magic mirror, only to find that his mouth had disappeared, leaving only a smooth skin.
He cast the Golden Light Spell, but the spell that had always been effective in exorcising evil spirits and warding off evil was unable to undo the magic he was uttering.
He used another longevity talisman, but it didn't work either.
This time, he completely witnessed the divine power of the Empress. The gap between the two of them was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Just then, an old figure walked out of the bedroom. It was my mother-in-law.
She looked at Li Daoxuan deeply and said, "I have never seen Miss so angry before. Li Daoxuan, what did you do before?"
Li Daoxuan activated his earth-moving magical power, the ground shook slightly, and then a line of words appeared.
"I held her hand."
There was a look of surprise in my mother-in-law's eyes, but then the wariness disappeared and a smile appeared.
She covered the eyes of the Sparrow Fairy who was peeking and wiped the words on the ground with her feet.
"I see. I understand."
He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Li Daoxuan felt that the way she looked at him was actually a bit... admiring?
The mother-in-law raised the cane in her hand and tapped Li Daoxuan lightly on the head.
The next moment, a cool air rushed in, and Li Daoxuan suddenly opened his mouth, only to find that his Taoist magic had been cracked and he could speak again.
This mother-in-law is really not simple!
Li Daoxuan bowed to her and said, "Thank you, mother-in-law!"
The mother-in-law looked at him kindly, nodded and smiled, and said, "Don't you have something important to do? Come in quickly, the queen is inside."
"yes!"
Li Daoxuan walked into the bedroom, and this time there was no force to stop him.
He finally saw the empress again.
The empress was holding a jade pen, with a dignified posture and a peaceful expression, and was practicing calligraphy quietly. Li Daoxuan took a look and found that what she was writing was actually Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Preface".
The characters are like the bright moon, clear and graceful. Although they lack some of the unrestrained and wild feeling, they have more of the otherworldly air.
"My lady, before I—"
"I don't blame you for what happened before."
Lady in green seemed to have regained her composure and spoke calmly.
She had already anticipated the twists and turns in the process and understood why Li Daoxuan suddenly treated her so recklessly. It was a pity that the man ran away so fast, otherwise she would have really had to fight with him today.
"I hope you don't blame me."
Li Daoxuan breathed a sigh of relief and took the initiative to sit next to her.
Lady Qingyi frowned slightly, but did not distance herself from him. Instead, she stopped practicing calligraphy and said, "Didn't you say you had something important to talk to me about? Tell me, what trouble did you get into outside?"
Hearing this, Li Daoxuan's expression froze. He put away his distracting thoughts and began to talk about his experience in the underworld.
