Run into the world

Chapter 569 Her Empire
"That Imperial Master is very powerful, but we don't think there will be any surprises, because we have already hired experts who can deal with him. It's just..." Wu Qing's voice stopped abruptly, as if he remembered something, but didn't understand it. .

Duan Muxiang yawned, as if the retreat just now was very energy-consuming, "Is it because you know you will win, but don't understand why you will win, which makes you feel uneasy?"

Wu Wuqing has acquiesced. Being one of the four famous arresters may be an occupational disease. The pursuit of the truth has almost become the instinct of life. It took them ten years to figure out what was going on, and what method Pudu Cihang used to control nearly half of the court's civil and military forces.

Duan Muxiang looked at Qingqing a little more seriously, "Are you confused as to why Pudu Cihang has controlled nearly half of the court, but he still hasn't shown any thoughts of usurping the throne?"

Ruthless and speechless, this is of course the most confusing thing. To be able to achieve the position of one of the four famous arrests, they have seen countless cases, and these cases naturally include many madmen who want to usurp the throne. It's just that none of those fanatics have reached the point where Pudu Cihang is now, but why does Pudu Cihang seem to have no signs of reaching this point?
Duan Muxiang crossed her arms across her chest and crossed her legs, "Do you mind telling me about the masters you have prepared to deal with Pudu Cihang? Also, your previous emperor endured it for more than ten years, why did the new emperor of this generation fail to do so? Can't bear it anymore? Is there something unexpected that forces him to do this? "

Wu Wuqing paused and looked at him with some suspicion, "You are people from another world, right? Even if I talk about those masters, how can you know?"

Duan Muxiang was not surprised at all. Although he didn't know how the other party knew it, it was not surprising. He had not only seen indigenous people who knew information about other worlds, but also masters who used special methods to cross the barriers of other worlds. Woolen cloth!
However, this startled Ye Qingyu, who was watching the fun next to him, and exclaimed: "You... then how did you know?"

Qingqing had no intention of answering Ye Qingyu's question. Compared with Duan Muxiang next to him, this person seemed to be a free gift, and only Duan Muxiang's questions were worth answering.

Ye Qingyu looked helplessly at Duan Muxiang, who asked helplessly: "Okay, how did you know this secret?"

Wuqing replied: "I have the ability to see through people's hearts and what they are thinking."

"Hiss!" Ye Qingyu was cold and subconsciously hugged his arms like a little girl, feeling pitiful and helpless.

Wu Qing looked at him with a joking look, and then added: "Just like what you thought when you saw me for the first time, you were surprised at first and had some dirty thoughts about me, but then you found out that I was disabled. Thoughts of pity.”

Ye Qingyu's face twitched, and he explained to Duan Muxiang, who was also staring at him: "There is always some instinct when facing beautiful women... eh, you know. I was just thinking..."

"Huh?" Qingwu was stunned for a moment, looking at Duan Muxiang next to him in surprise.

She couldn't read Duan Muxiang's mind, but she could read from Ye Qingyu's heart that Duan Muxiang was interested in her!

This was a bit embarrassing. Although Duan Muxiang didn't say anything, Ye Qingyu was not one of those clear-eyed college students. He could tell through some superficial phenomena that Duan Muxiang wanted to sleep with Wuwu. So he was afraid that Duan Muxiang would misunderstand that he wanted to steal a woman from him, but he couldn't help but think about it, and he was ruthlessly aware of it as soon as he thought about it.

In this case, things are a bit embarrassing...

However, Duan Muxiang continued as if he couldn't read the air at all: "Just tell me, whether you can understand how powerful your masters are, that's my problem."

Qingqing thought for a while and replied: "The child of Tianshan in Piao Miao Peak Lingjiu Palace has always been one of the backers of the royal family. This time, in order to successfully ask for help, the royal family sent two members of the royal family to ask for help. All the way to Tianshan, all the way here. Emei asked Changmei to go down the mountain to ward off evil spirits, but the interception on the way to Tianshan was unsuccessful, but the Emei trip was successful. However, not long ago, we learned that the royal family actually sent a third party, and this trip was just a success. Only the eldest princess was able to hide it from everyone, even us ministers. She followed the team to Tianshan and successfully invited the Tianshan Child Elder!"

Ye Qingyu was quite shocked, "It's a chain plan. There are at least three important members of the royal family on both sides of the light and dark side. They are powerful and can fight hard enough."

Duan Muxiang understood instantly, "So that Dongfang Dudu is the princess you call, well, then the young man I saw eating pan noodles outside with her in the morning is..."

Qingqing was a little surprised that he had met the eldest princess in the morning, and said with a smile: "Members of the royal family always like to use the surname 'Dongfang' when they travel incognito."

Duan Muxiang said nothing, but Ye Qingyu asked curiously: "Is there any allusion to this?"

Wuqing didn't mean to keep this kind of news secret, and said lightly: "You can find this anywhere. Although the founding emperor of the Sun and Moon Empire was named Duanmu, his mother was named Dongfang. Therefore, in order to commemorate Taizu and the Queen Mother, there is It’s such a custom.”

Ye Qingyu suddenly stopped asking any more questions, but Duan Muxiang followed up, "How did you...how did the Taizu and the Queen Mother die?"

"???"

"..."

Are you polite?

Ruthless looked at Duan Muxiang strangely, and thought about many possibilities for a moment, but finally gave up thinking, "According to royal records, the Taizu Queen Mother died a hundred years after the establishment of the Sun and Moon Empire."

Duan Muxiang lowered his head slightly when he heard the words, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. The occasionally leaked emotions made the entire Luo Family Courtyard seem to have lost its color in an instant. Everything became dark, as if the world was lifeless.

However, Duanmuxiang quickly returned to normal, and the surroundings had color again. For just a moment, everyone thought it was an illusion.

But the white light flashed before his eyes, and two more figures appeared.

One has white eyebrows that float up to his chest, the other is gorgeous and noble in palace attire, with a little flame between his eyebrows.

The two of them were separated, and there was a faint tendency to surround Duanmuxiang. However, Duanmuxiang was clearly the most imageless and casual, but he was not at a disadvantage in terms of momentum. What's more... it seemed that he was the best. The hard one!

Duan Muxiang was a little helpless and couldn't control her emotions for a while. The sadness affected the surrounding people through various true meanings.

He raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him. These should be the Changmeizhenren and Tianshan Tongmao that Wu Qingqing mentioned just now. Well, the characteristics of the former are really obvious. the latter……

Duan Muxiang looked at the beautiful woman in palace attire, her eyes became more and more strange, as if she was looking at an old friend.

Similarly, the beauty in palace attire seemed to be lost in thought as if she remembered something, but was not too sure.

Neither of them spoke, but the Changmei Master spoke first, "Emei Headmaster Ren Shou has met Taoist friends, but he doesn't know where Youxian Township is?"

Duan Muxiang came back to her senses and replied with a smile: "I'm just an old immortal. Don't worry about it. You can talk about your affairs and I'll tell you everything."

This was enough to stop the conversation. The Changmei Master really didn’t know how to continue, but the beautiful lady in palace clothes next to him asked, “Have you ever thought about visiting an old friend?”

"Old friends? They must all be dead..." "..."

The silence between Duan Muxiang and the beauty in palace clothes made everyone confused. Ye Qingyu next to him looked at them blankly. Do you know each other?
The beauty in palace attire also seemed to be a little depressed, waving her hands to everyone, "Let's talk in private, please do whatever you want."

Master Changmei turned around and left with great simplicity. Although Qiu Zhixian had infinite souls of gossip burning in her heart, she did not dare to stay at all. She pushed Qingqing away and left, taking Ye Qingyu away with her by the way.

Qiu Zhixian had heard about the strange temper of the Tianshan Child Elder. Legend has it that this old witch had an extremely cold-blooded personality and had to eat blood every day. It was so scary.

Duan Muxiang and Tianshan Tonglao were the only two people left in the huge backyard. They sat and stood speechless for a long time, as if there was a strange tug-of-war. One didn't know what to say, and the other didn't know how to say it.

After a long time, Duan Muxiang finally sighed and found a topic, "What's your name?"

Tianshan Child Elder seemed a little hesitant, as if she had almost forgotten her name, "No one has asked me how many years it has been... my name is... Qiao Zi."

Duanmuxiang asked again: "A'Zhu is yours..."

"It's my sister."

Duan Muxiang suddenly said, "So you took your brother-in-law's surname."

The Tianshan child's grandmother looked solemn and corrected: "You just followed your husband's nature!"

Duan Muxiang scratched his cheek. He really hadn't thought of this. After all, he couldn't always gossip about others even if he could do it again.

Duan Muxiang thought for a while and then continued: "Your sister's talent is not bad, but it is not bad at all. Her foundation is almost impossible to break through the life level and extend her life. Then... where is your brother-in-law? When did he die?"

"If you had come back a hundred years earlier, you might still have met him."

Tianshan Child Elder's words made Duan Muxiang think of a lot in an instant. At their level, they can actually think about many things, or there are only a few possible outcomes, and there will be no exceptions.

Duan Muxiang looked at her, and smiled as if she were facing an old friend: "When I became friends with your sister and brother-in-law, you had never met her. Well, judging from your current appearance, you should have practiced a certain way. Use the exercises to extend your life. Since your brother-in-law doesn’t practice, then this should be his own choice. You don’t have to be too sad. After all, being in a bad mood is not good for your practice.”

Duan Muxiang's words seemed to make the Tianshan child's mother break her guard a little, and she stared at Duan Muxiang fiercely, but in the latter's view, this was a bit mean.

Duanmu Xiang was happy. He didn't know Qiao Zi well, but he knew Qiao Feng very well. He knew the other person's temper very well.

Qiao Feng has lived for so long, so his strength must have reached a bottleneck that he cannot break through, or in other words, even if he breaks through, he cannot extend his life. Because humans have limits, simply improving strength is not enough to break through the level of life and reach a new lifespan limit.

This thing is like the setting in a cultivation novel. No matter how strong your methods are, if you don't break through before the end of your life, you will really be dead.

At this time, there are two ways to change the level of life. One is to clearly understand your own path and embark on the path of seeking it. Once you enter this stage, there is no lifespan limit. You can continue forever without getting involved in cause and effect or causing trouble. Until you get tired of living or give up.

The other is to rely on external forces. This so-called "external force" may be a variety of options, such as using phoenix blood like Emperor Shitian, or creating new species like Duanmu Xiang to create the six-eared macaque.

The second type relies too much on chance, which can only happen by chance. The first one is too rare. Duan Muxiang had to exhaust all his merit and luck to achieve it. Qiao Feng did not have this condition.

However, although Qiao Zi seems to have found a way to extend his life, a proud Qiao Feng may not appreciate it. Maybe he would rather die than practice such a thing.

"By the way, how did you become the guardians of the Sun and Moon Empire?"

Tianshan Child Elder, who was a little depressed just now, glanced at him disdainfully, as if she was looking at a scumbag.

"During the war between the Song and Yuan Dynasties, your appearance reversed the situation and left the Song Kingdom without an opponent. That time my husband heard about you and took the initiative to look for you, but it was a pity that you disappeared again."

Tianshan Child Elder paused as she spoke, "Then you showed up again and gave birth to a child with a woman. Your wife came here with the child, and that's how we ended up in the current situation."

Duan Muxiang rolled her eyes and said, Damn, Oriental girls are so good at causing trouble. I took advantage of being a father to the extreme and went to find Qiao Feng.

"Huh? That's not right. How can Qiao Feng be so sure that is my child?"

Tianshan Child Elder smiled nostalgically and said, "That child is almost the same as you. His mother nags you from time to time, saying that you father and son look too much alike, which annoys her!"

Duanmuxiang: "You don't need to say this."

Duan Muxiang rubbed her temples, feeling a little bad again. In fact, in terms of breaking through the level of life, Dongfang Shenghui was more likely than Qiao Feng.

It's not that Dongfang Sheng is stronger than Qiao Feng, but that the skills she practices are closer to the true meaning of life. It's just that this technique can be divided into two situations, one is to realize one's own path, and the other is to extend one's life simply based on the technique.

Dongfang Sheng doesn't have the same arrogance as Qiao Feng. She may not be able to understand her own way, but she will definitely have no problem if she practices according to the technique.

But if she dies, the only possibility is that she can no longer practice!

Is she... not willing to become a man again?
This stinky bitch! You agreed to focus on your career, so why are you acting so affectionate?

Oh, by the way, you have indeed laid a big foundation, but can't you find some new goals? Let your empire be passed down for generations, let your empire conquer the world, what? I've delayed your ambition!
Although it has been more than a hundred years and the past has turned to dust, what can I give to repay this deep love and to whom...
