Chapter 240 I'm Afraid of Misunderstanding
Returning to Yuxuan Peak, there was a hint of solemnity in Li Yu's eyes.
All clues indicate that their world will face a crisis greater than the invasion of the Lingyuan Realm in the distant future. This time may be three thousand years, two thousand years, or even shorter.
Li Yu didn't know whether he could survive the catastrophe.
So he should cherish the present even more.
After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, his practice depended entirely on elixirs and faith.
This saved him time for seclusion and hard practice.
In the following days, Li Yu either studied new dishes or did eyebrow drawing and makeup for his fellow Taoists. He lived a very comfortable life.
Two years later, Jiang Li successfully conceived a baby.
In the following year, Zhou Zixuan and the three Zhao sisters also gave birth to babies one after another.
Ling'er and Zhou Yan, although still young and inexperienced, were able to touch the Nascent Soul barrier with the help of the Barrier Breaking Pill.
Only there is no news from the witch.
Sometimes spiritual practice just doesn't make sense. Although she is more talented and has experienced the memory of illusion, she is still unable to form a baby even after taking the same barrier-breaking pill.
Li Yu hadn't seen the witch for several years and missed her very much.
Elder Xuanyuan said that she was in seclusion and would not come out until she achieved Nascent Soul stage. Li Yu knew her temper and did not disturb her.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than two years have passed.
A month ago, Ling'er successfully formed a demon baby, and just yesterday, Zhou Yan also successfully formed a demon baby and returned to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
…
The Great Zhou Dynasty.
The return of the seventy-third princess caused quite a stir in the entire Zhou Dynasty.
His Majesty has long intended to pass on the throne. Over the years, the court officials have been speculating whether the second prince, the seventh prince, or the ninth princess will inherit the throne of the Great Zhou Dynasty...
His Majesty once issued a clear decree that among all the princes and princesses, whoever first forms a Nascent Soul will be the next emperor of the Great Zhou.
The second prince, the seventh prince, and the ninth princess were not only the oldest but also the most accomplished. Everyone thought that the next emperor of the Great Zhou would be one of them.
Who would have thought that among all the princes and princesses, the first to give birth to a baby would be the Seventy-third Princess who had always been ignored by people.
If she had not been accepted as a disciple by the Kunlun Sect Master several years ago, causing a stir in the Great Zhou Dynasty, probably no one would remember the Seventy-third Princess Zhou Yan.
Compared with other princes and princesses, her talent is not particularly outstanding, and she does not have a strong background. She is a marginal figure in the royal family of the Great Zhou.
Who would have thought that after just ten years, her cultivation level jumped directly from foundation building to Nascent Soul stage, and it was a Nascent Soul with five spiritual veins, the only one with five spiritual veins in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
If she could cultivate all five attributes to the level of spiritual transformation, the Great Zhou would immediately have one more powerful Void-Breaking Expert.
Of course, the possibility of this happening is very small, but at present, there is indeed a major problem facing the Emperor of the Great Zhou and his court officials.
The seventy-third princess has advanced to the Nascent Soul stage. Will the throne be passed on to her or not?
Don't pass it on. The current emperor has already issued a clear decree. No matter which prince or princess gives birth first, the throne will be passed on to him or her. The king is serious about his words.
Pass it on...
Behind the second prince, the seventh prince, and the ninth princess, there is more than one god standing, representing different interests, and no one wants to give up the throne.
The Great Zhou Palace.
Somewhere inside a palace.
"I feel that Princess Seventy-Three is still young and cannot take on such a big responsibility."
"How can the future emperor of the Great Zhou be a disciple of the Kunlun Sect Master? Isn't this lowering one's status?"
"With her age and experience, can she handle state affairs?"
"We must not destroy the Great Zhou's thousands of years of foundation just for a temporary order."
…
Several figures spoke one after another, but the Emperor of Great Zhou did not utter a word.
He naturally knew what these gods were thinking. They just wanted to support the princes and princesses they supported to ascend to the throne, but it was undeniable that there was some truth in their words.
He had issued the imperial edict in the first place just to encourage those princes and princesses, but he did not expect that the first of his children to advance to the Nascent Soul stage would be the Seventy-third Princess, whom he had only met a few times.
He had many concubines and many children, so he didn't really care who would succeed him.
What he pursues is the path to immortality, not the power in his hands.
He was about to say something when a voice suddenly came from outside the palace: "Why, can the Emperor of Great Zhou take back his decree whenever he wants?"
Everyone looked outside the hall with shock on their faces.
Everyone in the hall had a cultivation level above the Spirit Transformation level. It was unexpected that someone could come so close without being discovered by them. This person's cultivation level must have reached the pinnacle.
An old man, with his hands behind his back, staggered in from outside the hall.
Another young woman followed behind him.
After seeing the old man's face clearly, all the powerful gods of the Great Zhou Dynasty were stunned at first, and then they all showed surprise.
Afterwards, these usually high-handed gods knelt on their knees and said respectfully, "Greetings to the Holy Lord!"
Even the Emperor of the Great Zhou was no exception.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Holy King was a god.
The old man slowly walked to the dragon throne, and the woman stood beside him obediently, gently patting his shoulders.
The Thousand-Faced Saint Lord took a look at the Great Zhou God below and felt extremely angry.
The Lingyuan Realm is about to attack, but these people are still fighting for power. After more than a thousand years of peaceful life, they probably forgot from whom the Great Zhou was taken.
Apart from the Tiandao Sect, the descendants of the Tianyan clan in the Lingyuan Realm probably hate the Great Zhou the most.
Although Yan'er is young and lacks experience, the fact that she is Li Yu's disciple can make up for all her shortcomings.
In this world, is there any sect that has Poxu as its guardian?
Who else has Li Yu’s connections and influence?
Although he could not see through Li Yu, it was obvious that he had a big secret that was difficult to see even with the Void. Whether the Great Zhou Dynasty could continue might depend on him.
The Thousand-Faced Saint glanced at them and said calmly, "Zhou Kun will abdicate immediately, and Yan'er will be the Queen of the Great Zhou. Does anyone object?"
There was complete silence in the hall.
The Holy Emperor has appointed, who dares to object?
The seventy-third princess seemed to be very familiar with the Holy King.
No one knew how she won the favor of the Holy Lord.
But since the Holy Lord had spoken, they could only put away all their thoughts and said loudly: "The Holy Lord is wise..."
…
Xuanyin Sect.
On Lingchan Peak, Elder Xuanyuan looked at Li Yu helplessly and said, "The Saint said that she would not come out of retreat until she condensed her Nascent Soul. You should try to persuade her. Sometimes, there is no way out if the opportunity has not arrived yet..."
Li Yu smiled and said, "It's okay, I have a way."
He came to the outside of Lingchan Hall, and heard Nangong Chan's voice from inside: "I won't go out. Everyone has reached the Nascent Soul stage, even the little tiger. I won't go out until they form a Nascent Soul!"
Li Yu could understand her feelings very well.
Who is Nangong Chan? She is a top genius in the world of immortal cultivation who is as famous as Qin Keren, so naturally she has her own pride.
Senior Sister Qin had formed a fetus ten years ago. Others had also formed fetuses during the same period, becoming famous in the world of immortal cultivation. Only she was still at the peak of the golden elixir stage. In recent years, there had been controversy about her in the world of immortal cultivation. Some even said that her talent was seriously overestimated, and that she had only achieved her current level of cultivation thanks to the Xuanyin Sect...
How could she, who has always been a favored child of heaven, endure such injustice?
However, forming a baby is something that cannot be rushed.
The more anxious you are, the harder it is to break through your state of mind.
Li Yu stood at the door, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'm not here to ask you to get out."
He said in a very calm voice: "I came here to tell you that I am going to become a Taoist couple with Keren. Don't go to Kunlun to find me in the future. I'm afraid Keren will misunderstand..."
After Li Yu finished speaking, there was silence in Lingchan Palace.
After a brief period of calm, a powerful storm swept out.
The formation outside the palace was destroyed in an instant.
An extremely angry voice came from the hall:
"Say what you just said again!"
