Although she never doubted Emperor Qinghuan's vision, she could not afford to be careless when it came to her own career, so Princess Long Yi decided to come and take a look in person.
Regardless of whether it works or not, it is best to find out as soon as possible.
It is said that Emperor Qinghuan's vision is well-known in the entire Taoist court, just like the many proud sons of heaven who surround her daughter. If you pick one at random, his family background and his destiny and qualifications are all
He is an outstanding person. As long as he does not fall halfway, he may become the supreme leader of his respective forces in the future.
However, in the eyes of that emperor, such a person was just mediocre and embarrassed to hold such a big responsibility. Since Princess Long Yi debuted, she has not decided on a candidate for her Taoist companion. Even the other two emperors asked for their direct descendants.
, were all rejected by her.
Therefore, Princess Long Yi was indeed a little curious about Qin Muling, whom she had never met before. She also vaguely knew that her mother was a core figure in the Taoist court. She must have some unknown special methods that could see some fragments of the future destiny.
That's why he was given an extraordinary evaluation.
But now, Qin Muling has not returned from traveling. God knows when he will return. If he insists on refusing to come back, Princess Long Yi will probably wait here in vain.
From the princess' exquisite thoughts, it is natural to see the true attitude of the senior management of Yunmeng Tiangong towards her: she is extremely fearful, but she is also unwilling to give in.
If it were any other supreme orthodoxy, most of them would accept the conditions proposed by Emperor Qinghuan, even if the person they want is a demon-level genius seed in their orthodoxy, preparing candidates to inherit the orthodoxy in the future, among the billions of worldly merits and
Everything will pale in comparison to the friendship of a Taoting Emperor.
Therefore, Qin Muling must have some very special secret that allows the senior officials of Yunmeng Tiangong to protect him even if they offend Emperor Qinghuan.
After careful consideration, Princess Long Yi decided to wait and see, so she proposed to stay temporarily in Yunmeng Palace for a while.
Mu Yinghua agreed politely and tactfully, and chose a beautiful cave to accommodate the distinguished guest. The accompanying uncles also made arrangements one by one, and asked an elder to personally take charge of the matter to ensure that nothing went wrong.
"Headmaster, what should we do about this matter?"
After everything came to an end, Yu Lingzhou came over to ask Mu Yinghua privately.
Mu Yinghua sighed: "What else can we do? The Emperor Qinghuan can't afford to offend him, so we can only deal with it this way now, but we will never let Qin Muling out, even if we break up with the Taoist court!"
Yu Lingzhou nodded: "That's the truth, so now, the plan to repair the sect's main altar must be suspended, right?"
Mu Yinghua did not object: "It doesn't matter if we stop. It's almost done anyway. It doesn't matter if we wait for the final finishing touches."
When there are outsiders around, it is of course not advisable for the sect to make any big moves, lest someone see something they shouldn't.
"I will secretly inform Bingyuan Tianjun and others to pay attention to safety outside recently, keep a low profile, and protect Qin Muling. As for Xue Bingxuan and the others, they should practice in seclusion."
Mu Yinghua added, anyway, it is normal for high-level monks to retreat for hundreds or thousands of years at a time. If they never show up, they don't believe that Princess Long Yi will wait here for hundreds of years and not leave.
She pondered for a moment, raised her hand and pinched the spirit secret slightly. In an instant, the wind surged high in the sky, and the faint thunder roared and reverberated. The shadow of a huge tower that spanned the sky and the earth and was shrouded in starlight slowly emerged, floating motionless in the air.
The pressure that is enough to destroy heaven and earth is contained but not released.
This is the Lihuang Nebula Tower, an important weapon that has been sitting at the center of the mountain-protecting formation, absorbing the spiritual energy of the void to accumulate power. Mu Yinghua deliberately made its shape slightly revealed, just to intimidate those top second generations who came with Princess Long Yi.
.
After all, Yunmeng Heavenly Palace is full of beauties. If these guys with excessive energy and habit of causing trouble get interested in their lust and cause some trouble, it will not look good to everyone.
On the other side, Princess Long Yi had been quiet since she settled down. She was just enjoying herself in the cave, cooking wine and playing the piano. She didn't leave the house and had no signs of causing trouble.
More than ten days later, several figures who looked like escorts and maids returned quietly.
"After watching these days, have you discovered anything different?"
In the quiet room, Princess Long Yi put down the Taoist scriptures in her hands and asked leisurely.
An old man in a green robe and a big cloak with deep eyes bowed and reported: "Your Highness, the repair progress of the main altar of the sect in Yunmeng Tiangong is almost completed, and the overall luck of the sect has been restored to ten thousand levels.
There is no doubt that they were in their peak state two years ago. Even if they still have a lot of territory that they have yet to take back, the size of the lineup of high-level powerhouses is far less than it was then."
A middle-aged Taoist nun added: "The methods they used to conceal their Qi were very clever, but they still could not avoid the detection of the secret treasure that the emperor personally refined. Therefore, they should have had other encounters that led to such an obviously abnormal phenomenon.
!”
"Is that so?"
Princess Long Yi thought thoughtfully, of course she couldn't go in vain, even if Qin Muling was not here, she had to come and see the reality of Yunmeng Palace.
From this point of view, this sect has a lot of things hidden. In the eyes of the outside world, even if Yunmeng Tiangong has stopped its decline in recent years and quickly regained its strength, it is still far away from the true supreme orthodoxy.
"So, Master Lingmiaozi, what have you discovered?"
Princess Long Yi looked at a man in a black shirt who was skinny and ordinary in appearance. Although this man looked unattractive, his aura was unfathomable.
Ling Miaozi said in a calm tone: "I searched around and found nothing related to Qin Muling. It seems that... all traces of his existence were deliberately eliminated and covered up by the headmaster. Those
The elders who are qualified to know are all tight-lipped, so there is not much valuable information."
"But one thing is certain. Qin Muling actually has Taoist companions, and they are the four direct disciples of Mu Yinghua."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present changed their expressions.
"Master, are you sure?"
A beautiful woman who looked like a female official asked with a cold face. She was a person close to Emperor Qinghuan. She came here this time to check for Princess Long Yi. If the intended candidate for the consort had already been picked up by another fox, then what?
What else is there to see?
Ling Miaozi nodded: "It is absolutely certain that if Qin Muling is really important, Mu Yinghua will definitely spend a lot of money to trap him tightly and will never give any chance to outsiders."
Princess Long Yi thought for a while and suddenly laughed: "It seems that there should be other forces that had ideas about him before us? That's why Mu Yinghua dealt with it like this? But I seem to remember Xue Bingxuan's roots.
In fact, his qualifications are not as good as mine, but now he has actually reached the Yuanxian realm. It seems that he probably has a very special opportunity."
"Moreover, this news should have been released deliberately by Mu Yinghua, betting that I would not lose face and compete with her direct disciples for a man. After all, it is related to the face of my mother and the Taoist court."
The female officer asked: "Your Highness, the matter has come to this, what do you think should be done? Do you need to report it to the emperor immediately?"
Princess Long Yi glanced at her: "No need. Before setting off, my mother has given me full authorization to handle all matters here by myself."
As a result, everyone who had planned to offer words of advice was speechless. Emperor Qinghuan and Princess Longyi obviously knew more inside secrets, but it was impossible to reveal too much to them.
Princess Long Yi stood up and paced back and forth in the room for a moment before she stopped and said slowly: "It seems that the recovery momentum of Yunmeng Tiangong is very rapid. It can be regarded as a veritable ancient supreme orthodoxy.
He is worthy of further support from the Taoist Court."
"How about this? Aunt An, go meet Mu Yinghua and tell her that I can lend her the merits of heaven and earth. However, from now on, Yunmeng Heavenly Palace can only be close to Emperor Qinghuan, and can no longer be with that person.
The two have too many connections. She should understand what this means!"
The beautiful woman looked slightly startled, then nodded: "Okay."
Princess Long Yi continued: "Yunmeng Palace has received such great benefits this time, they must accept this favor from me, and Qin Muling must be responsible for repaying this favor in the future, and cannot leave it to others!"
Although the beautiful woman was confused, she didn't ask any more questions and turned around. This arrangement was most likely the result of the emperor's instructions, and she didn't need to go through it herself.
In just a moment, she brought back the news. Mu Yinghua agreed to the matter, but pointed out that Qin Muling was young and his cultivation level was still low, so the time for returning the favor should be fulfilled after he became a Taoist.
"Okay, that's it!"
Princess Long Yi said with a smile: "Let them get ready. I will set off to return to the Taoist court tomorrow to prepare for the catastrophe of the true immortal. Otherwise, it will be really boring to be harassed by those bastards under various pretexts every day."
"Is it so fast?!"
The beautiful woman was surprised and happy. Among the new generation of genius elites in Taixu Xingkong, there are very few who can prove the Dao Yuan Immortal, let alone the true immortal! If Princess Long Yi successfully takes this step, she will be a veritable new student.
The first person in his generation, given time, there may not be another emperor in the Taoist court!
…
In the secret palace.
Qin Muling and Luo Huan were tasting delicacies and talking about their cultivation experiences. The jade talisman in their arms vibrated slightly, attracting the couple's attention.
Qin Muling reluctantly let go of the milky-white Daxuezi, took out the jade talisman from her arms, injected her magic power and began to examine it. Luo Huan's beautiful, watery eyes also looked over.
After browsing the message from Mu Yinghua, Qin Muling was silent.
Luo Huan next to him couldn't help but ask: "Junior brother, are you sure? This favor is not ordinary. The princess is clearly trying to embarrass you, and the headmaster is serious about it. She actually agreed like this!"
"You can't say that, this should be considered some kind of test!"
Qin Muling smiled and said: "In any case, Emperor Qinghuan has indeed done a great favor to the sect this time. With the resources of Yunmeng Tiangong, it should be enough to awaken the third generation disciple of the founder of the sect."
"As for myself, the favor of one billion meritorious deeds is indeed exaggerated, but when I become a Taoist and a Mysterious Immortal, this debt will be nothing. I will have no problem paying it back to her in double the amount."
Luo Huan looked at his junior brother in confusion. One billion meritorious deeds, even if all the powerful men of the supreme orthodoxy came out, they would not be able to collect them in hundreds of thousands of years. This is under the condition that everything goes well.
Moreover, as a sect, it is impossible to abandon other things and focus solely on earning merits from heaven and earth. This is okay in the short term, but it will definitely not work in the long term.
The catastrophe is approaching, and even the Supreme Orthodoxy cannot be immune to it alone. Moreover, Yunmeng Tiangong has many old enemies. If there is an emperor-level being sitting in charge, the situation will be completely different.
Now, it should be the turn of the surrounding orthodox high-level officials to have trouble sleeping, right?
As for earning merit, Qin Muling feels that he has no problem at all. With the power of the innate Hongmeng spiritual species, as long as he can kill a sufficient number of powerful demon descendants, it is only a matter of time to make up this number. Of course, this
You need to wait until you realize Dao Yuanxian.
But even now, the amount of heaven and earth merit earned by Qin Muling from killing the descendants of the demons and purifying the dead zone has reached a level beyond the reach of the genius seeds of the same level.
"Junior brother, do you think... how far are the senior sisters from breaking through to true immortality?"
Luo Huan looked at Qin Muling and asked hesitantly.
It is said that Princess Long Yi will hit the realm of true immortals after she returns. Naturally, she does not want to be compared like this. I believe that Xue Bingxuan and the others have the same thoughts.
Qin Muling thought for a while: "With me here, it shouldn't take long. If we use time to accelerate the effect of the magic circle, it will take about ten or eight years. After all, you don't have the bottleneck of exhausting your potential. Accumulation
If you have enough, you can be promoted."
"That's good!"
Luo Huan let go of his worries, stretched out his jade arms and hugged him, smiling sweetly: "If we want to improve our cultivation quickly, we can't be lazy, let's practice!"
"..."
Qin Muling sighed resignedly, and in the blink of an eye, her senior sister stripped her completely...
…
In the mountain behind the sect, deep in the secret realm of cave heaven.
Holding the majestic and thick golden seal in her hand, Mu Yinghua walked through the long corridor, passed dozens of strict security checkpoints, and arrived at a magnificent hall.
The main hall spans thousands of miles, and the rosy light and purple energy with rich Taoist charm fills every inch of the space in the hall. The endless light rain dances lightly, and there is a deep and vast rhythm of nature that faintly echoes at the level of the soul.
On the high platform of spiritual crystals that are as white as snow, there are huge lotus flowers carved from vitality-rich cyan crystals. In the middle of each lotus flower, lies a woman with a beautiful appearance and an extraordinary temperament.
.
Of course, in the outermost area, there are already seven clear lotuses that are empty. This is naturally due to Qin Muling's credit. After Bingyuan Tianjun, six more Supreme Elders were restored to their original state due to his ability. If he hadn't gone out later.
Traveling, the number of restored elders will now be greater.
"Is the matter...done?"
Among the nine green lotus flowers on the top floor, a sweet and elegant voice came softly.
"Yes, ancestor, I am lucky that I have lived up to my destiny!"
Mu Yinghua bowed slightly and saluted, and quickly recounted the cause and effect.
