Huangxiu

Chapter 473 Empress
Chu Zhiyuan once again practiced the Yin-Yang Return to Void Technique and immediately felt that the world was different.

Two auras, one yin and one yang, gushed out from the top of the head and the soles of the feet respectively, met at the Dan Zhong point, and transformed into a strange aura that spread throughout the body.

Surrounded by this strange atmosphere, he was in a state of contradiction.

Both tranquil and agile.

It is like a fish swimming in the deep sea, quiet but not dull, agile but not impetuous.

Chu Zhiyuan felt that this state was very strange.

He tried to practice in this state and found that it did not hinder him.

The two auras, one yin and one yang, do not conflict with the spiritual energy, and they do not even require conscious guidance; they operate on their own.

As long as they are not stopped intentionally, they will continue to run smoothly on their own.

Chu Zhiyuan felt more and more mysterious.

He looked at Cheng Miaozhen, who was very close to him, with skin so crystal clear and delicate that it seemed as if it could be blown away.

Cheng Miaozhen took two steps back and asked softly, "How is it?"

Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly: "I have mastered it."

Cheng Miaozhen smiled.

Chu Zhiyuan asked: "What level will you reach after practicing this?"

"There are six levels of the realm of returning to the void: physical void, mental void, spiritual void, pure void, great void, and primordial void. I am now in the realm of mental void, and you are now in the realm of physical void."

"The body is weak..." Chu Zhiyuan said: "The body has become light?"

"Yes." Cheng Miaozhen nodded gently: "It will remove the acquired yin and turbid qi. The guilty heart will have a change in state of mind, and the spiritual weakness will be a change in spirit. I don't know what will happen after that."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "This technique is indeed mysterious, at least it can conceal the aura."

"It's really powerful to conceal your breath." Cheng Miaozhen said.

Apart from my aunt and mother, even my eldest brother didn't know that he had any cultivation skills.

They didn't discover it themselves, but they said it themselves, otherwise they wouldn't have discovered it.

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists and said, "I'll give it a try. Thank you, Your Highness."

Cheng Miaozhen shook her head gently: "Just don't blame me."

She walked forward and Chu Zhiyuan continued to walk out.

When they arrived at the gate of the princess's mansion, Chu Zhiyuan asked her to stay and not go out.

However, Cheng Miaozhen insisted on seeing him off out of the princess's mansion and watched him leave surrounded by Guo Chi and the others.

At this time, the slanting moon was hanging in the sky.

The stars are dim.

The streets of the princess's mansion were filled with lanterns. They slowly disappeared in the lights and blended into the night in the distance.

Cheng Miaozhen stood quietly at the steps of the princess's mansion, looking in the direction they disappeared.

Suddenly I felt relaxed all over.

Thoughts are also clear.

The yin and yang energies became more lively and agile, and they unknowingly advanced to a higher level, arriving at the state of Shenxu.

My spirits suddenly lifted, my thinking became more agile and lively, as if I had suddenly become smarter.

She took a deep look into the distance, turned around and slowly returned to the princess's mansion.

Shu Fei was sitting quietly at the table in the front hall. She looked at her and asked, "What's going on?"

"Well, he didn't refuse."

"Alas..." Concubine Shu sighed, "With such talent and yet so open-minded, he is truly a rare talent."

"mother--!"

"Forget it, let it be." Shu Fei shook her head: "He is still worth associating with. We can be friends even if we can't be husband and wife. Talking to him often will be beneficial to both body and mind."

Cheng Miaozhen said: "I'm just afraid he doesn't like it."

"You are so beautiful, how could he not like you?" Concubine Shu chuckled, "No matter how powerful a man is, he can't resist the temptation of beauty."

Cheng Miaozhen was a little embarrassed: "I am not a beauty at all. Xiao Ruoling is the most beautiful woman in Yujing. She is said to be extremely beautiful."

"You're not bad either." Shu Fei said, "Your elder brother this time..."

She shook her head gently: "It's hard to get over the relationship."

If it were that easy, I wouldn't have been stuck in it for so many years.

Chu Zhiyuan returned to Tingtao Court and continued to practice the Yin Yang Return to Void Art, which he found to be extremely miraculous. The more he practiced, the lighter his body felt, and he felt as if he had transformed into the Yin and Yang Qi.

He suddenly thought, after practicing this technique, could he break the shackles of the grandmaster?
If you kill a grandmaster, will the evil spirit still come to your body?
He was immediately eager to try, but he was in no rush to do it. He first had to practice the Yin-Yang Returning to Void Art to a deeper level and then do it when the opportunity arose.

The Grand Master must abstain from killing, but as a martial artist, how can he never have the urge to kill? It is not only the evil sects and monsters who deserve to be killed.

-

The lanterns are on.

At Chu Mingxuan's prince's mansion, as soon as Chu Zhiyuan arrived outside the mansion, Chu Mingxuan, Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan came out to greet him and welcomed him into the mansion.

Four people sat around the table. The delicious food had been laid out and a jar of medicinal wine had been prepared.

The four of them started eating and drinking.

This is not the first time they have met since Chu Zhiyuan became a grandmaster.

It has become the norm for the four of them to get together to eat, drink and chat.

While eating and drinking, they chatted about court affairs and talked about Dameng.

"Old Four, have you heard the news?"

Chu Zhiyuan put down his wine glass: "Uncle Eighteen, what's the news?"

"The throne of Great Mongolia has been passed to Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess."

“Hmm——?” Chu Zhiyuan was startled and asked hurriedly, “Who did you send it to?”

"You can't imagine it, right?" Chu Mingxuan said with a smile, "It's the Ninth Princess who challenged you, Old Four, Li Hongzhao."

"...pass the throne to her? Impossible!"

Chu Zhiting and Chu Zhichuan flatly objected.

It was the first time they heard it, too.

Chu Mingxuan said: "I just got the news, it should be correct. I think it will spread in the next two days."

"That shouldn't be the case." Chu Zhichuan frowned. "How could it be passed on to her? To a woman? It seems that there was no woman emperor in the Great Mongolia before?"

This broke people's imagination.

Not to mention in Da Meng, even in Da Zhen and Da Jing, it was impossible for a female emperor to appear.

What’s more, it is the martial and powerful Mongolia.

Is the emperor getting senile or has he been bewitched by Li Hongzhao?

"Impossible." Chu Zhiting shook his head: "It must be a rumor."

"You two!" Chu Mingxuan said unhappily, "It's definitely not a rumor!"

Chu Zhiting said unconvincedly: "Uncle Eighteen, do you think it's possible? It sounds impossible."

Chu Zhichuan said: "Someone spread it deliberately, right? Is the Great Mongolian fighting for the throne?"

Chu Zhiyuan pondered in silence.

The three noticed his hesitation and looked at him.

Chu Mingxuan said: "Old Four, do you think it is possible? Can His Highness the Ninth Prince become the emperor?"

Chu Zhiyuan said slowly: "It may not be impossible."

The three grand masters at that time might have been escorting Li Hongzhao, but they might also have been protecting Li Hongzhao.

If they need to be escorted, there is actually no need for three grand masters, two will be enough.

If the purpose is to protect Li Hongzhao, three of them won't be enough.

The emperor issued a secret order asking her to return as soon as possible, probably not to deal with her, but to pass the throne to her.

If you hadn't heard what Su Qiuyan said, it might be hard to believe the news at first.

But with Su Qiuyan's imperial edict, this matter no longer seems incredible.

“The empress…” Chu Mingxuan sighed: “This spirit is really different. She is worthy of being the emperor of the Great Mongolia!”

"Maybe he was forced to do so." Chu Zhiyuan said.

He believed that if the Mongol Emperor had any choice, he would not make this choice.

The emergence of a female emperor in Mongolia would have such a huge impact that it could shake the country.

Chu Zhichuan said: "But, can the Emperor's Sword really recognize its master?"

"It's absolutely correct." Chu Mingxuan said hurriedly: "My information is absolutely reliable!"

Chu Zhiyuan did not ask where the news came from. This was a secret and he could not ask about it casually.

It seems that the news is true, Li Hongzhao really became the emperor!
