Roaming Soul

On the second day, the weather was beautiful and sunny.

Yun Duan tapped the white jade case with her fingertips, a slight smile on her lips. After the envoys from the other countries sent their gifts, they all went to the side to drink and eat their meat.

"The year 100 God Clan envoys have arrived …" Yun Duan righted herself and sat on her high seat. This Hundred God Clan was one of the four God Tribes and could be considered one of the dominion of Thousand Empire Mountain. But since it was a bit far, that was why she came here today.

"A hundred year old God Tribe envoy kowtows to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live in peace for generations, and may my mountains and rivers live in peace for long!"

"Rise!" Yun Duan smiled as she spoke, her tone distant and noble.

The ceremonial officer announced the congratulatory gift. "Long Fengxiang and Liu Li …"

"A pair of snow crystals and a longevity jade ruyi …"

"A hundred birds chirping …"

"…"

"…"

After kneeling down, the envoy withdrew.

Soon, other god race members also came.

"Emissaries of the God of Heaven Clan have arrived!"

"The envoy of the Navy Tide Divine Clan has arrived …"

"…"

"…"

Before the second day of the grand ceremony ended, the seven divine galleries of the four God Tribes were already in place. Yun Duan held her head up while smiling and said, "The wedding gift is not bad, but none of the heads have come. It is obvious that they are looking down on her, the new emperor."

It didn't matter. There was still a long way to go.

On the third day, the grand ceremony continued. The Myriad Empire Palace had set up all sorts of activities for the guests to play with. They couldn't possibly hold back everyone, could they?

Yun Duan didn't participate, and some important court officials were still waiting in the main hall to welcome the envoys.

"Master, please drink some tea!"

Qin Ni leaned closer to the cloud in a small voice, gently pushing the teacup on the table forward.

Yun Duan chuckled, her jade-like hand reaching out to pick up the teacup. She took a sip and lowered her voice as she asked Qin Ni, "Is there anyone else who hasn't arrived yet?"

Qin Ni thought for a moment, shook her head, and said, "All that I know is that we've arrived!"

As for what she didn't know, that wasn't clear.

The forces of the Thousand Empire Mountain were huge, and they had many friends and enemies. Naturally, those who flattered and flattered came one after another. The little one was not included, as Qin Ni glanced at Qiong Ying while the other important ones.

Qiong Ying's eyes swept across the great hall without leaving a trace behind. Her pupils slightly contracted as she slowly approached Yun Duan's ear and said in a low voice, "Mistress, the divine mountains have yet to arrive!"

All the mountains, Qin Ni's eyes flashed. How could she have forgotten about this!

Xuan Hong, you're right. This person is not here yet.

Yun Duan curled her lips. He said he wanted her to wait for him, but it had been three days and he still hadn't shown up. Perhaps he didn't want to come, or perhaps he didn't expect her to take over the world so quickly.

It was true that her speed was quite fast, but what could she do? She had to give up the trust of the Imperium for the sake of the common people of this world.

Yun Duan's black eyes swept over the envoy that had just left. She did not even pay attention as she did not know which country he was from.

He picked up the cup of tea and took a sip. A voice came from outside, "The young master of the mountain has arrived …"

"…"

It was almost noon when he slowly walked over. Yun Duan chuckled lightly.

Xuan Hong, dressed in black brocade robes, walked up to the top position of the palace with light and vigorous steps. He lifted his robe and half-knelt, not bowing at all. He then spoke in a clear voice, "This official congratulates you for being late. I beg your majesty to atone for your crimes!"

"…"

Yun Duan was stunned. Wasn't the mountain the same as the Thousand Empire Mountain? Then why did Xuan Hong have to kneel to her? This was an unreasonable number.

An old official stepped forward as if he had seen through Yun Duan's confusion.

"Your Majesty, two months ago, the divine mountains had already been under the command of our Thousand Empire Mountain, and they are now under the command of the Divine Jia. Now, the Thousand Dawn Mountain has the Godly Jia Eight Branch!"

"…"

Why didn't she know about this?

As a king, although she was still a newcomer, she did not even know that such a powerful faction as the Gods Mountain had actually come under her tutelage. Wasn't this a little too much?

"Your Majesty, the previous Emperor only mentioned this a little bit. He said that he would wait for you to ascend to the throne before he would hand over the book!"

"…"

What did Emperor Chen mean by this?

Yun Duan couldn't understand why the God of Heaven Mountain would submit to the Thousand Empire Mountain so easily. Is there any interest in this?

The ceremonial officer reported Xuan Hong's congratulatory gift.

Yun Duan did not even manage to listen to a single word, her thoughts were in a mess.

She was in a trance until the grand ceremony ended. She was a bit tired, so she left the rest for the others to deal with.

Qin Ni rubbed her shoulder after she changed her clothes. Her voice carried a hint of surprise: "Why did this mountain suddenly belong to the Myriad Tribes Sect? It really is unexpected!"

She wasn't the only one who didn't expect this. Yun Duan's red lips slightly curled up as she was also played around with. Such a huge matter was completely hidden from the emperor, and now all the ministers were watching her as a joke.

He really didn't expect it.

"Young Master Xuan!" Qiong Ying's voice sounded. Yun Duan's black eyes blinked as she waved her hand, causing Qin Ni to retreat to the side.

"Duan`er!" Before he even entered, he heard a sound.

Yun Duan could not help but twitch her mouth. This person was truly shameless. He dared to call out her name in such a manner. He was really not afraid of death.

Yun Duan did not move as she just laid there with her head on the ground.

Xuan Su smiled as he walked in. When he saw Qin Ni standing at the side, his black eyes flickered. Then, he waved his hand. "You may leave first. I have something to say to your master!"

Qin Ni: "…"

Yun Duan said, "Go!"

"Mistress, this isn't proper etiquette, is it?"

Right now, she was the Emperor of the Thousand Empire Mountain. Although the young master of the divine mountains was feasible, a man and a woman were, after all, unsuitable to be overheard by others.

"It's fine, you can leave now!"

Qin Ni sighed, "Yes!"

She had to tell the people below her that she was not allowed to chew on the root of her tongue.

Xuan Hong watched as Qin Ni closed the door behind her. He strode forward and scooped up Yun Duan into his arms, his voice filled with happiness and satisfaction. "Do you miss me?"

"…"

Yun Duan felt that this person had really gone crazy. He didn't care about his own life.

"Hmm? Do you want to? "

Xuan Hong didn't feel anything amiss as he hugged her tighter and tighter.

"…"

Yun Duan found it hard to breathe. "Xuan Hong, do you know who I am?"

Xuan Hong blinked his eyes and replied casually, "I know, your majesty!"

"…"

Since he knew that he would treat her in such a manner, he didn't know what in the world was going on in this person's head.

"If others were to see you hugging me like this, would you think that I would die or would you die?"

Xuan Hong stiffened and let go of the cloud with a bit of grievance. He frowned slightly and said, "I missed you too much!"

Yun Duan stuffed the longevity lock that had fallen in front of her into her undergarment and sat up. She looked at Xuan Hong and asked, "How did you suddenly submit to the Thousand Empire Mountain?"

Xuan Hong carried Yun Duan to the side and set her aside. Then, he sat down next to Yun Duan with a smile on his face. His eyes were dark and simple.

"My Royal Father had an agreement with Emperor Chen. Now that the time is up and my Royal Father does not have the requirements to become Emperor Chen, he has to submit!"

"…"

How could the story of how to fool a child be believed?

He glared at Xuan Hong and said, "Can you tell me the truth? People in the palace always keep everything a secret from me. I'll only know when things come out. Don't tease me like they did!"

Hearing this, Xuan Hong put his hand on Yun Duan's shoulder and pulled her into his arms.

"…"

"I won't lie to you, and I won't lie to you either. My royal father and the Chendi Emperor made an agreement a few years ago, and although I don't know the content of the agreement, Wan Chaoshan must have helped our Godly Mountain in some way. So now the time has come, and the Gods Mountain has naturally pledged their allegiance to us!"

Is that right?

The man named Emperor Chen actually understood the word 'gentleman'. Was that person a 'gentleman'?

Yun Duan smiled mockingly. Perhaps that was the case, for others, perhaps he was still very decent, but for her, he was just a murderer who killed Senior Concubine Yu and A-Rui.

Yun Duan pushed Xuan Hong away, wanting to get out of his embrace. She expressed her dissatisfaction with the man's embrace.

Xuan Hong was very domineering, and Yun Duan's refusal displeased him. "What? You can't even hug me for a bit? "I think you've been doing this for months. Will you lose a piece of meat if you hug me?"

"…"

Yun Duan wanted to say that this was truly impolite, but she was alone in the room with him. Although the sky wasn't completely dark yet, there was no one waiting on her in the hall.

She sighed, "My identity is different now. Can't you at least give me some face?"

Xuan Hong said angrily as he hugged her even more tightly, "No one saw it. Even though you are now the emperor, it has nothing to do with me. I like you. One day, I will marry you home!"

"…"

What did this person have in his head?

Yun Duan felt a headache coming on. Since she couldn't break free, she decided not to struggle anymore. She could only continue to stay in his embrace. When Xuan Hong sensed Yun's cooperation, he relaxed a bit.

"I've also understood it today. Although Emperor Chen allowed you to succeed the throne, he still holds the most authority in the entire Myriad Dawn Mountain. You have no one else but him now!"

"…"

Yun Duan thought this person was just an idiot and couldn't tell anything.

She knew since a long time ago that it was impossible for Emperor Chen to completely let go of her. On the surface, he had already made a new master, but in reality, she was just a puppet.

"Then what are you going to do now?"

Yun Duan sighed, "I don't know!"

However, it was impossible for her to retreat. Even if she did not agree to the journey, she would still try her best to avoid the world. She knew that as long as she had power, the higher she stood, the better she would be.

"Now that you have become the emperor, and another female emperor of the ten thousand dynasties, I still don't know when I will be able to marry you home. Tell me, do you think it's still possible?"

Xuan Hong suddenly became sad, his voice low and faintly sad.
