As the Universe Turns - Chapter 75
Chapter 75 Princess
In the Hundred Flowers Valley, the woman from Zi Yi walked towards a secret hall. Halfway through, she suddenly stopped. She turned her head and said coldly, “You Chang, You Qin, what are you two sneaky hiding behind? Why aren’t you coming out yet?”
“Hehe, the princess discovered it.”
Two figures flashed out. One was a Qingyi man and the other was a red-clothed woman. They were the two people who came to the cave that night to find the “Odd Granny”.
The two of them walked forward and the man from Qingyi said, “Your Majesty doesn’t understand. That brat is always against us. A few days ago, he broke through the fog formation outside and let those people find him in the Hundred Flowers Valley. Why didn’t Her Highness directly remove this person to save him any trouble in the future?”
The girl’s gaze turned slightly cold. “Hmm? Did I say I was going to get rid of him?”
The man from Qingyi scratched his head, becoming more and more confused about his Highness the Princess. He said, “Yes … Your Majesty is confused.”
The woman in red added, “But those people from those sects actually dare to say what kind of demonic witch the princess is. How unreasonable! What kind of status is the princess? Those people really blinded their dog eyes. They actually compare those little demonic witches in the mortal world to our Great Nether Race.”
The girl said casually, “It is precisely because they are short-sighted that in these ten thousand years, there has never been a single person in the world like the Azure Emperor.” When she said this, a complicated look appeared in her eyes.
“Since that’s the case, why didn’t the princess directly hand over those secret manuals to the Demon Heaven Sect and the people from the Freedom Building, and let them fight against each other? Isn’t it in our interest?”
“What do you know!”
The young girl turned around and looked at the two of them. “Those demon sects are eager for these so-called righteous swords to point at us now. Since they have not found what I want, why do they need to continue to set you on fire? You Chang, You Qin, Father has let you stay by my side for a long time. Don’t you understand the principle of’retreating is advancing ‘?”
Only then did the two of them wake up. The man from Qingyi slapped his forehead and smiled, “I told you, no wonder Gongzhu kept that brat. He even let him gain some prestige. In this way, he can make use of him in the future.”
The young girl shook her head and was too lazy to talk to them. She only thought that at the foot of Pingding Mountain, that brat actually dared to randomly grab her body. He was in public just now … Thinking of this, she didn’t get angry at all. Brat, one day, her old body will definitely chop off your two pig hands!
When she arrived at the windowsill, she tore off the mask on her face. Her long black hair fell down, but it was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years of age.
That girl was like an immortal, with the moon as its god and autumn water as its posture, like an immortal spirit that only existed in a painting. How could there be such a moving appearance in the world?
The man from Qingyi smiled and said, “Your Highness’ disguise art is unparalleled in the world, and the High Priest’s avatar art is unparalleled in the world. It’s really me, Dayou …”
“Huh?”
The young girl turned around. She was clearly only seventeen or eighteen years old, but her eyes were very sharp. The two of them couldn’t help but shiver. A moment later, they heard her say, “Si You, this person is very ambitious.”
Upon hearing this, the two of them trembled. The man from Qingyi hurriedly said, “The High Priest has done his utmost for our Serene Race’s liver. He has no second thoughts!”
“Did I say that he has two hearts?”
The girl looked at him impatiently, then turned around and looked at the falling flowers outside the window. She snorted, “I just don’t like him. He speaks in a dark tone, and he wears a black robe all day long. He covers his face inside. I get annoyed when I look at him!” With that, he brushed his sleeves and swept away the falling flowers on the windowsill.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled bitterly. At this moment, a dark voice came from behind, “Your Highness, are you talking about this old official …”
Such a sudden sound almost frightened the souls of You Qin and You Chang. A pitch black hole suddenly appeared on a wall behind them. A figure floated out of the black hole.
The man was not touching the ground, wearing a black battle robe and a battle robe hat. He could not see his face. You Chang and You Qin were both shocked and quickly knelt down, “This subordinate greets the High Priest!”
The girl was also shocked. No matter what, this old fox came without a single greeting. However, he pretended to be fine. He turned around and coughed twice. He said awkwardly, “Well … High Priest, you, you’re here.”
At this moment, she repeatedly pondered in her heart. Something was wrong. Now that the restrictions of the Mortal and Secluded Realms were so heavy, apart from her being able to shuttle freely, even her big and small brothers could not come so easily. How could Si You come so easily? Could it be that he had already cultivated a Primordial Spirit avatar that ignored the restrictions of the Three Realms … Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel a chill behind his back.
Si You slowly floated up, his left hand on his back and his right hand on his chest. He bowed slightly and said, “Old minister, greet the princess.”
Hearing his Yin Qi voice, the young girl felt even colder behind her. She shook her hand and said, “Alright, alright. Tell me, why did the High Priest come here?”
Si You slowly raised her body and looked at the two people on the ground, “You guys, get up.”
“Yes …”
Hearing this, You Chang and You Qin dared to level their bodies. Si You looked at the girl again and said slowly, “It has been a long time since the Princess returned. Your Majesty has been worried about the Princess recently.”
When the girl heard what he said, she immediately felt that something was wrong and said, “Alright, I will naturally go back! You don’t have to worry about it.”
Si You added, “Your Highness, you miss the princess very much. You always remember when the princess will be able to return.”
“Big brother, little brother …”
The girl couldn’t help but frown. In her memories, her eldest brother loved her the most. Although he usually looked cold and cold, he always protected her.
Little brother has a natural disposition and always makes a lot of fun puppets for himself. Every time he is unhappy, he will use some moving puppets to coax him …
Thinking of this, the young girl’s eyebrows couldn’t help but be filled with worry. It had been a long time since she saw her two brothers. She said, “Alright, when I’m done, I’ll go back.”
Si You shook his head, “I came here today to invite Her Highness the Princess back.”
The girl couldn’t help but tremble when she heard this. She subconsciously retreated backwards. She was not afraid of the heavens and earth. It seemed that she was only afraid of the High Priest of the Nether Race. She frowned and said, “Are you tired? I said, when the matter is over, I will naturally go back.”
Si You still shook his head, “If the princess insists on staying in the world, then this old minister … can only offend.”
“You!”
The young girl’s eyebrows immediately lifted. She thought that something was wrong. This old fox was in a hurry to let her go back. Could it be that he wanted to personally interfere in the affairs of the world? If he were to interfere, how could that be? No, he had to think of a way. Thinking of this, he hurriedly winked at You Chang and You Qin, as if he was asking for help from them.
However, You Chang and You Qin were even more afraid of this mysterious High Priest in front of them. Even when they saw the You Emperor, they weren’t so nervous. Now, they didn’t even dare to breathe. How could they dare to say anything else?
Seeing that even the two of them couldn’t be trusted, the young girl stomped her feet angrily and frowned, “Hey, Si You, let me tell you, I am the current Great You Princess, do you dare …”
“Princess, I have offended you.”
Si You’s two fingers slightly merged together, and a few purple profound lights flew over, immediately binding her tightly. The young girl could not break free, and she hurriedly said to the two people beside her, “What are you guys still waiting for?”
The two of them trembled slightly. You Chang smiled bitterly and said, “Then … Your Highness, why don’t you listen to the High Priest and go back?”
“You guys … you guys are fine! I’ll deal with you guys later!”
“Princess, please.”
Si You faintly guided her and led her towards the deep black hole on the wall. She then looked behind You Chang and You Qin and said, “The rest of the matters here will be handed over to you.”
“Yes” The two of them trembled as they placed their hands on their chests and bowed, “Send the High Priest respectfully.”
Si You didn’t say anything else. The seal in his hand slightly pulled, They immediately disappeared into the deep black hole with the girl. After the wall gradually recovered, You Chang and You Qin secretly wiped away their sweat. However, they thought to themselves, with the Princess’s temperament, she would probably sneak into the world again soon. However, the High Priest’s Primordial Spirit Avatar was now able to freely travel between the two worlds, which truly scared them. If the High Priest were to interfere in the affairs of the mortal world, and the Princess did not have any helpers in the mortal world, how could she defeat the High Priest?
…
In the blink of an eye, more than four months had passed since the theft of books from the various sects in the Northern Region. This matter had gradually subsided, and Xiao Yichen had been down the mountain for half a year. In the next four months, he had been traveling around trying to comprehend the heavens and earth in order to break through to the next realm.
Last time when he was in Lianhua Palace, he didn’t really break through. He could only barely comprehend some of the mysteries. It was precisely because of that moment of comprehension that not only had his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, but he had also comprehended some good fortune in the next four months. A breakthrough in his realm was just around the corner. There was only a chance left.
Once he broke through to the Void God Refining Realm, he would no longer fear Xu Taichang and He Chongtian when he returned to Cangfeng Valley with his seamlessly compressed strength.
It was the spring of march, and the ice had melted. Everything was flourishing. Originally, yichen had planned to return to the purple night peak to ask his master some questions, but on his way back, he passed a mountain range that he had never been to before. The mountain range looked down like two dancing fairies. Yichen felt curious and landed on his sword.
When they arrived at a clear valley below the mountain, they saw flowers blooming like brocades, colorful purple and red, spring water stirring up rocks, lingling sounds, hundreds of birds chirping, whistling into charm.
Yi Chen never thought that there would be such a quiet and secluded Immortal Realm hundreds of miles away from Mysterious Cyan Mountain. How could he have never discovered it before?
At this moment, he became excited. Wasn’t it because he wanted to comprehend everything in the world? He immediately found an ancient spring and took out the Fuxi zither. This time, he didn’t sleep for three days and three nights.
On the last day, the sound of the zither was endless, attracting thousands of birds, red, green, and purple, flying up and down. They circled around him, crying endlessly, as if they were also following his zither.
“Whoosh!”
At this moment, a stone shot out from nowhere, and with a “pu” sound, a yellow bird on his shoulder flew away, shocking the birds nearby to the point that they also flew away quickly.
Yichen immediately regained his senses from the empty Profound Realm. He raised his guard and pressed the string to stop him from bending. He quickly looked back and said, “Who is it?”
However, in the next moment, he was stunned. A white-clothed girl slowly walked over. The girl seemed to have walked out of the painting and even the surrounding flowers were in full bloom. It was as if she was only trying to set off her beautiful and peerless immortal energy.
