I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 1862
1862 Getting News About Tang Siyu
A world of great strife!
This was a world of great conflict, and it was different from the dynasties of the Common Era. Grand Xia was surrounded by powerful foreign races, eyeing them covetously, ready to invade the Central Plains at any moment. It was because of this that every generation had to choose a powerful ruler. Once they chose a weak ruler, the Central Plains would face the danger of destruction.
Because of this, the competition for the throne of each generation was a stage for the princes and princesses to show off their abilities. This was especially true for these princes and princesses. Each of them enjoyed the best education and the most resources in the imperial family. The cultivation resources that ordinary people could only dream of but could not obtain were nothing to them.
This was passed down from generation to generation. Almost every generation of the imperial family would have many experts who would shock the world. These princes and princesses were all outstanding figures among their peers. In addition, many of their followers and allies were also outstanding figures. The fight for the throne often involved the top geniuses and elites in the world.
In Grand Xia, it was not popular to protect each other. They only followed one principle, and that was natural selection. The competition for resources had already been engraved into their bones. Those who were qualified to participate, they were all the best among their peers, and many of them were even the upper echelons of Grand Xia. The cultivation of such a person consumed a huge amount of resources. If they could not advance further, how could they obtain so many resources?
Whether it was the sect’s needs or their own needs, they had no choice but to join the fight for the throne and choose a prince or princess to assist him.
Every battle for the throne was extremely intense. This was why the rulers of Grand Xia were all heroes, and the important officials of the court were all dragons and phoenixes among men. Only one in a million could make Grand Xia prosper.
‘Princess Yun Yang? Interesting.’ Chu Yunfan smiled.
The internal affairs of Grand Xia did not object to the choice of the various officials. They even turned a blind eye to it. This was the same principle as the true Flying Celestial disciples would have a large number of followers around them. No matter who won or lost, they would have a large number of strong supporters. Only then would they be able to firmly grasp the power in their hands.
Chu Yunfan didn’t want to go at first, but there was a silver bracelet attached to the invitation letter. If it was an outsider, they would not have think much of this bracelet. But when Chu Yunfan saw it, he trembled.
Wasn’t this silver bracelet Tang Siyu’s communication bracelet?
This high-tech bracelet was not something that Grand Xia could produce.
‘Princess Yun Yang…’ Chu Yunfan thought.
He originally didn’t plan to attend this garden party, but now he had decided to attend this to find out more. He had only managed to gather news about Tang Siyu from Ye Qiushui, which was that Tang Siyu was favored by the eldest princess and had asked the king for the identity of Princess Gushe. Now, she was under the eldest princess’ tutelage and was cultivating in the secret realm of the imperial family.
That was why Chu Yunfan had wanted to come to the Imperial Capital—to inquire about Tang Siyu. Previously, he had not taken any action. It was not that he could not come to the Imperial Capital, but at that time, he was just an ordinary minor character. Even if he came to the Imperial Capital, it was impossible for him to obtain any news.
The eldest princess was the aunt of the current king. She chose to support the current king’s ascension, and she had made great contributions to this cause. Although she gradually retreated behind the scenes after the current king ascended the throne, her influence had not decreased in the slightest. In fact, it had even increased.
Before, Chu Yunfan was just an ordinary disciple of the Flying Celestials and didn’t even have the right to visit them. Therefore, no matter how anxious he was, he could only suppress his anxiety.
However, it was different now. He was already one of the six great true Flying Celestial disciples. His reputation was just below Yang Dengxian’s, and he was also a famous character on the prodigy list. This series of status buffs was enough for Chu Yunfan to have the qualifications and ability to inquire about Tang Siyu.
Now that Princess Yun Yang had sent this bracelet over, it was clear that she wanted to tell Chu Yunfan that she knew some things about Tang Siyu.
“Since you want to invite me so much, I’ll go and take a look.”
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Outside the Imperial Capital, satellite towns were scattered all around the Imperial Capital. In one of the towns, it was crowded early in the morning. Countless people came from all over the country to this town because today was the official start of Princess Yun Yang’s garden party.
“Princess Yun Yang’s annual garden party is about to begin. This is a major event in the Imperial Capital. Every year, it attracts countless young talents to participate. There are even experts on the prodigy list who come because of its fame.”
“That’s right. Now that Princess Yun Yang’s reputation is growing, the influence of the garden party is also growing. Originally, only some of Princess Yun Yang’s followers would participate. Now, as long as they have time, all the geniuses in the Imperial Capital and even the nearby provinces and counties will come to participate.”
“This is only natural. Princess Yun Yang is a popular candidate to become the future king. Her strength is unfathomable. Even the current king said that if Princess Yun Yang wasn’t a woman, she might’ve even surpassed the princes.”
In a restaurant in the town, many guests were discussing animatedly, and most of the content was about Princess Yun Yang’s garden party. After all, this was a rare event in this town. It was only because Princess Yun Yang’s manor was in this town. Otherwise, these people would not have been able to get such benefits.
“I wonder what Princess Yun Yang’s current strength is. It’s said that her strength is almost on par with the prodigies on the prodigy list. However, the Mysteries Pavilion is afraid of the imperial family and doesn’t rank the experts of the imperial family. This is why many people can’t guess.”
“Many experts have come this time, and they’re from the top ten sects. We might even get the chance to see Princess Yun Yang personally take action,” someone said confidently, but the others did not believe him.
Chu Yunfan leaned against a window and listened to these words.
Although Princess Yun Yang rarely made a move, she was probably not a kind person either. According to the news from the Flying Celestials, Princess Yun Yang had displayed astonishing martial talent when she was very young. However, after she grew up, her talent in this aspect gradually disappeared as if she had vanished.
