The Great Martial Saint!

Chapter 479: The Majesty of the Queen, Promotion Ceremony

"Brother Chen."

Just after coming out of Guangyuan City, Mu Qingyao saw Chen Pingan not far away. Her eyes lit up and she was as excited as a little girl.

Chen Pingan turned his head and saw Mu Qingyao's little head playfully poking out of the carriage window.

"Miss Mu." Chen Pingan responded with a gentle expression and a smile.

"Brother Chen, we've known each other for almost a month, so let's not be so formal." Mu Qingyao smiled brightly, with a hint of playfulness in her tone: "Just call me Qingyao."

Chen Pingan smiled and was about to answer when he saw Mu Chenjie walking over from the side.

"Qingyao, it's getting late, get ready to set off!"

"Mr. Mu." Chen Pingan greeted with a smile.

His trip was also a blessing from others, and as long as it did not affect his interests, he was willing to show some goodwill.

Life experience: there is no need to be serious about everything!

"Brother Chen." Mu Chenjie nodded slightly with a smile on his face: "Brother Chen, did you buy anything in Guangyuan City this time?"

"I haven't had time to buy it yet." Chen Pingan said with a smile.

Mu Chenjie's attitude surprised Chen Pingan. The last time they met, Mu Chenjie was not so polite.

However, after a brief thought, Chen Pingan understood the key point.

After exchanging a few words with Mu Chenjie beside Mu Qingyao's carriage, Chen Pingan politely said goodbye and left.

Mu Qingyao stuck her head out of the carriage window, her eyes fell on Chen Pingan, watching his departing back.

"Qingyao." Seeing his sister's appearance, Mu Chenjie couldn't help but knock on the carriage window frame.

"What?" Mu Qingyao withdrew her gaze and frowned in displeasure.

"What are you doing? Look at you, your eyes are on someone else's body and you're almost drooling. If people knew that a young lady from the Mu family looks like this, I'm afraid they would laugh their heads off." There was a strange flash in Mu Chenjie's eyes, testing his sister's reaction.

"No way!" Mu Qingyao's cheeks instantly turned lightly red when she heard this. She subconsciously touched the corner of her mouth, and when she found nothing, she couldn't help but get angry and said, "You're lying! I don't have anything."

Mu Chenjie looked at his sister's reaction, the smile on his face gradually faded, and his voice instantly became extremely serious: "Qingyao, tell me honestly, do you really like him?"

"I didn't." Mu Qingyao's heart tightened and she immediately retorted.

Mu Chenjie's doubts grew even stronger, his face became stern, and his eyes were filled with scrutiny.

"What's so good about him? You've already fallen in love with him after only meeting him a few times."

"If I said no, then no."

"No, you just looked at him like that?"

"Oh, I won't pay attention to you." Mu Qingyao was a little impatient with her brother's questioning, so she simply retreated back into the carriage.

"Qingyao." Mu Chenjie called out from outside the carriage, wanting to go up and find out what was going on, but after hesitating for a moment, he did not go up in the end.

The strategies of the Mu family and the Gu family are highly tied together, and the Gu family's momentum has greatly increased. As a powerful family of the same faction, the Mu family is naturally proud of it. After learning the news about the Gu family, he was in a good mood.

As a result, this incident made his mood plummet to the bottom.

The cabbage that I have grown up with is now being eaten by pigs?
The key point is, looking at the situation, it seems that the cabbage is delivered to your door by itself.

I want to get angry, but I don't know where to vent my anger.

What kind of magic does this guy have that makes my sister fall in love with him after only meeting him a few times?

Mu Chenjie was in mixed feelings. After thinking for a while, he immediately made a decision.

Just wait and see what happens; excessive intervention will only backfire.

Once we arrived at Canglongzhou City, the problem was solved.

As long as that boy leaves, my sister will figure things out after some time.

Mu Chenjie felt relieved and immediately mounted his horse and gave the order to set off.

This matter of the Gu family is very important, and the family should also make a lot of reactions. As the eldest son who is being trained, he still needs to go back early to understand the family's decision-making trends.

He might have a chance to go along on this visit to the Gu family. If he is lucky, he should be able to see the figure that has been haunting his dreams, like the fairy Guanghan descending to earth.

Thinking of this, Mu Chenjie felt warm in his heart.

"The Fairy of the City"

Chen Pingan returned to the carriage and found that the two guards were still protecting him.

When the two saw Chen Pingan coming back, they grinned and smiled at him.

In the past few days, the two of them had often discussed things in private, but there had been no offense towards him.

That time, Mu Qingyao specially brought pastries, and the two of them were obviously much kinder to him.

However, there are almost no occasions like now where we can actively show kindness and smile.

It was not known whether this happened this time because the conversation between him and the Mu brothers and sisters was seen by them.

I thought there would be a scene where an ungrateful guard would come forward to provoke him, and he would fight back and slap him in the face. But looking at the current situation, he must have thought too much.

"Sure enough, I don't have the fate to be the protagonist!" Chen Pingan laughed at himself.

According to the common plot in biographical novels, in scenes like this, both the high and low will have a fight. In a small case, it is the guard who provokes and the person in charge acts as a peacemaker. In a big case, it is the guard who provokes and the person in charge joins in, and finally the ancestor of the family is alarmed, and the protagonist bursts out with supreme fighting power and suppresses the ancestor in one fell swoop.

Or maybe the family patriarch was shocked and horrified when he saw the protagonist.

You, you, you are the king who rules the underground world! ?

I am an old man who doesn’t recognize a great man. Please spare my family.

Everyone was shocked, their horror evident in their expressions.

The ancestor who usually has the final say is now so humble.

Who is this person! ?
So much so.

Chen Ping'an looked comfortable. Such fantasies were quite interesting.

He was used to seeing scenes of being surrounded by celebrities, with a large number of guards, so this kind of experience was still relatively new to him.

Retrace the path we have come, recalling the good and bad times!

Sure enough, when you go out for a walk, you can always see something different.

No wonder so many masters, when faced with bottlenecks, choose to travel and experience life and appreciate nature.

He has now become a grandmaster, but experiences like this one are very rare.

If you have time in the future, you should experience it for yourself.

A very different life experience!

Chen Ping'an had a calm and leisurely look on his face, but the news he had heard in Guangyuan City not long ago emerged in his mind.

Gu Qingchan, the core elder of the Gu family, the female master, the Ice Soul Divine Needle, broke through the bottleneck in the Canglongzhou City and achieved the realm of a grandmaster!

On the same day, the Gu family announced that Gu Qingchan, the Ice Soul Needle, would be admitted into the family's Hall of Elders. Three months later, a grand ceremony would be held to invite friends from all over the world to come and celebrate together.

When he first heard the news, Chen Pingan thought it was fake news.

It hasn’t been long since Gu Qingchan broke through to the middle stage of Yuheng!
How long has it been since her last breakthrough, and she has already broken through to the Grandmaster level?
From a common sense perspective, this is unlikely.

Not to mention the preparations needed to break through the realm, the process of accumulating realm alone will take a considerable amount of time.

It was incredible that Gu Qingchan had achieved a breakthrough again in less than two years.

But the facts were in front of Chen Pingan, and he had no choice but to believe it.

This news had spread like wildfire in Guangyuan City, and was spreading to the surrounding cities at an extremely fast speed.

After repeatedly confirming the authenticity of the news, Chen Pingan had to admit that the girl from the Gu family had indeed made a breakthrough.

Even the Guangyuan Zhenfu Division came out to publicize this matter. With official power backing it up, it was hard to believe that this matter was fake. Otherwise, it would not just be the Gu family that would be embarrassed.

"How could the breakthrough be so fast?" After confirming the authenticity of the news, Chen Pingan had many doubts in his mind.

When the demons surrounded the Sanqi Mountain and fought at the Ten Thousand Demons Blood Pool, Gu Qingchan did show the fighting power of a top master, but that was only fighting power, and her realm had not yet reached the perfection of the middle stage of Yuheng.

Even though he had already reached the middle stage of Yuheng, he still needed to prepare for the breakthrough, and such a short time should not be enough.

How did she do it?
"Could it be that she also has a system?" Chen Pingan speculated secretly.

However, the information was limited and there was no point in thinking too much about it. This matter was not highly relevant to him, so Chen Pingan did not think much about it.

If you really have any doubts, you will know when we meet.

His mind was determined, his eyes focused slightly, and a golden finger panel appeared in front of him.

Name: Chen Pingan
Realm: Late Yuheng - Spiritual Pattern Spiritual Fruit (One Pattern)
武学：七绝神功入门（0/720）万魔铸身诀大成（0/3200）游龙身法大成（1347/1600）、金刚不坏神功圆满、龙象霸体诀圆满、三分人劫指圆满
"1347 points!" A barely visible hint of joy appeared in Chen Ping'an's eyes.

As he broke into the late stage of Yuheng, he clearly felt that his cultivation speed had increased a lot, especially for the top-notch magical skills such as the Wandering Dragon Body Movement.

With his current progress in practice, he would be able to perfect this top-notch skill in five days at most.

By then, you will be able to master the secret skills of body movement and fly in the clouds.

The breakthrough of the martial arts, with the help of the golden finger panel, can also bring about the feedback of true essence and spirituality.

"I wonder if I can use this to engrave a new spiritual pattern." Chen Pingan guessed.

The more spiritual patterns there are on the spiritual fruit, the more stable the spiritual power in his spiritual platform will be. If he encounters spiritual secrets or mental attacks, the situation he faces will be much better.

For example, the Grandmaster who has reached the top level of cultivation has six spiritual patterns engraved on his spiritual fruit. Even if he is not proficient in spiritual secrets, with his extremely strong spiritual foundation, ordinary spiritual secrets and mental attacks cannot hurt him at all.

"It turns out that cultivation is the foundation of all external things!" Chen Pingan sighed.

Many of the powerful methods of protecting the Dao had basic requirements for cultivation. If one's cultivation was not high enough, forcing them to activate would not only fail to protect the Dao, but would also result in backlash.

"Continue to practice!" Chen Pingan put aside all distracting thoughts, immersed his mind, and began to practice.

hum~
There is a faint tremor of spiritual light between the eyebrows, the true energy is moved, and the spirituality flows.

+1!

The news of Gu Qingchan's breakthrough spread to Canglong Province at an extremely fast speed, with Canglong Province City as the core.

As the news came out, there was an uproar.

Many forces who knew the inside story were even more shocked!
"Two years! No! How did she break through in less than a year and a half?"

"The realm of the Grand Master! This is the Grand Master!"

"How come it's so fast?"

“What on earth is going on!?”

"Could it be that the Gu family has mastered some special secret method that allowed her to break through so quickly!?"

"It's unlikely. With this amount of time, it's hard to accumulate enough cultivation experience, let alone break through!"

"Could that be the secret elixir for breaking through the realm?"

"Why do you always think about external things? Can't Gu Qingchan be so talented and gifted?"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! If she really had such an extraordinary talent, she wouldn't have wasted so much time in the early stages of Yuheng!"

"Really? You might have forgotten."

"what?"

"She was once an unrivaled evildoer who suppressed an entire era!"

Those who heard it were shocked and looked horrified, as if they had thought of something.

The Canglong royal family, the Zonglao Pavilion.

"Gu Qingchan broke through? How could it be possible? How long has it been?!"

"After multiple investigations, the authenticity of this matter has been confirmed."

"It's been less than a year and a half since the last breakthrough!?"

"Well, it is true."

"My Wang family has made many plans, formed alliances, and made clever moves. In addition, the subtle pressure from the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion has led to the current situation! Damn it! Why did it happen at this time!?"

"It's time, luck, and fate!"

"We are in a game of grandmastery. Although a great master has an influence, the influence is limited. If it is an ordinary breakthrough, it would be fine, but Gu Qingchan's breakthrough this time, the speed presented is too weird! The impact of this incident on the Gu family's prestige is really hard to estimate!"

"The Ice Soul Divine Needle has broken through the realm, and the Gu family has swept away the decline. The momentum is about to return to the peak!"

"hateful!"

"A great situation has gone to waste!"

"Everyone, stop arguing and discuss this matter! How should we deal with this matter?"

"."

Canglong Xue family, clan elders' hall.

"Have you found out the reason?"

"Not yet. We have activated a lot of hidden pieces, but none of them have had the expected effect."

"It's really too weird that they broke through the realms one after another in such a short period of time! Did the Gu family use some secret method?"

"There is no clear evidence. If there really is such a secret method, it would be detrimental to the harmony of nature and would have a significant impact on the layout and calculations of all parties. It is impossible that there would be no clues at all."

"A few days ago, my Xue family took advantage of the Gu family's refusal to marry the grandson of the Bi Cang prince to plot a plan. With the help of the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion, we have achieved this situation with so much effort. Who could have thought that such a thing would happen?"

"Gu Qingchan's breakthrough is indeed unexpected! Who could have thought that she could break through so quickly! According to normal circumstances, breaking through within sixty years is already very fast. There is a high probability that she may not be able to break through the barrier and become a grandmaster. Who could have expected the Gu family to break through like this?"

"It has already happened, there is no point in saying more. I am just curious, was this a careful plan by the Gu family, or was it due to Gu Qingchan's talent? This is the crux of the matter! If it is the former, it is fine, as you can plan for a while, but not for a lifetime. But if it is the latter."

“If Gu Qingchan had not used the secret method or secret elixir that has great hidden dangers to break through this time, then judging from the situation today, Gu Qingchan…” At this point, the core elder of the Xue family could not help but pause for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: “She already has the aura of a female monarch!”

"The lady is so majestic! If that is true, then..."

"If the Gu family really produces a female ruler, then the power of our Xue family will face a major change that has not happened in a thousand years!"

"The Gu family refuses the marriage proposal, and the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion will not sit idly by."

"The Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion has many factions and fierce internal strife. We may not be able to spare the time to truly intervene in this matter!"

"What a good thing!"

"Everyone, don't encourage others. How can it be so easy to become a female monarch? This realm is so difficult. Looking at the Canglong Province, there are many talented people. There are countless people with extraordinary luck gathered for thousands of years, but they can't reach this realm. How can his Gu family's luck be so prosperous that they can carry on the past and produce another one!?"

"Yes, that does make sense! Your Majesty's words are just our imagination. The most urgent task is to find a way out of this situation."

"Indeed, currently worrying about the lady is nothing but worrying over nothing. The right thing to do here is to find a way out of this situation!"

"Shan, I was also confused by the current situation, panicked, and had some random thoughts."

"Yes, the truth of this matter is still unknown. Perhaps it was a plot by the Gu family to disrupt our position."

"Yes."

"Okay, if that's the case, then everyone, please discuss it. What's the best way to break the impasse?"

"."

The elders of the Xue family temporarily calmed down their worries and began to discuss fiercely how to break the impasse. However, many elders still had doubts in their hearts, but they did not express them for the time being because they were concerned about the momentum and the overall situation.

Just as all parties were shocked, Chen Pingan and the Mu family caravan also arrived at Canglongzhou City.

The city of Canglongzhou is a hundred feet high, majestic and green, like a giant dragon winding and circling.

Before he got close, Chen Pingan saw this majestic city in the state from afar. Looking from afar, this majestic city seemed to be connected to the sky. Before he got close, a majestic momentum came over him.

Just as they were about to approach the Canglongzhou City, the Mu family caravan encountered a small team.
