Chat group: Living in a fantasy world, investing in countless realms

Previously, she had sided with the Heavenly Mandate Sect and wanted to help Zhu Yunwen rise to power.

Now that she is about to reach the Great Luo Heaven, she no longer cares about this matter.

After all, whether Zhu Yunwen ascends the throne or not makes no difference to her.

Why should she offend the Ghost King's family and ruin her promising future?

Chapter 606 Zhu Yuanzhang's Surprise, Admiration for Immortality (4/5, Please Subscribe)

"Report!"

"Urgent report!"

In the darkness of night, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was brightly lit, and Zhu Yuanzhang, with his full head of silver hair, sat at his desk, annotating official documents.

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps came from outside, followed by a sharp report.

"It's so late, the imperial city gates are already closed. Is there some urgent matter?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked up, his face already covered with wrinkles, but his eyes were still very bright. "Could it be that something has happened in the imperial city?"

This is a big deal.

The urgent evening report did not come from the world, but from the neighborhood.

This is even more worrying than the urgent reports during the day.

After all, even if something major happens far away, he can still strategize and has a chance to salvage the situation.

If a crisis were to occur in the capital, it would be imminent, and could cost the emperor his life in an instant.

The emperor's authority extends only ten steps away and a thousand miles away.

A threat within ten steps is the most deadly to an emperor.

"Xuan!"

With his mind racing, Zhu Yuanzhang still couldn't figure out what had happened.

After all, he was now in his twilight years, and the Ming Dynasty had been established for many years, with various forces intertwined and constant conflicts between the martial arts world and the imperial court.

Even he found it difficult to sort out the relationships between them in a short time.

Soon, a valiant guard entered the hall, stopped a few dozen paces away, knelt on the ground, and loudly reported: "Urgent report! Just now, Zhuang Qingshuang, the daughter of the Xining Sect, arrived at the Ghost King's Mansion..."

"A thousand pieces of gold, like the moonlit night, soared through the air, descending from the ninth heaven; hundreds of people present can bear witness."

"Flying through the air?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes narrowed. "Liao Wu, can you do that?"

"No!" came a faint voice, but no one could be seen.

This man was none other than Liao Wu, the head of the shadow eunuchs around Zhu Yuanzhang and the monk of Jingnian Temple.

"Could a Void Shattering Realm expert do that?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.

"The shattering of the void is too far beyond the reach of this humble monk, so I dare not make any rash judgments."

Just then, another urgent sound came from outside.

"Report! The Ghost King requests an audience!"

"Reporting, Zhuang Jie from Xining requests an audience!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up: "Perhaps this is why they've come. Summon them!"

Outside the palace gate.

The Ghost King and Zhuang Jie stared at each other.

Suddenly, Zhuang Jie cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Mr. Xu! Thank you for recommending my daughter. If things go well, I will definitely come to your door to express my gratitude."

"Sect Leader Zhuang is too kind."

Just then, the eunuch who was delivering the imperial edict arrived.

"Gentlemen, His Majesty requests your presence. Please come in with me."

The two exchanged a glance, then stepped into the inner palace together and entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Your subject pays respects to Your Majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed like lightning as he asked, "Zhuang Jie, I just heard that your daughter and the daughter of Mr. Xu flew through the air. Is this true?"

"That is indeed true. That is why I have come!" Zhuang Jie hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, contrary to the rumors, the one who can fly is not my daughter, but Miss Xu Yeyue."

"Oh!" Zhu Yuanzhang became interested and looked at the Ghost King.

He wouldn't believe it if it were just an ordinary spy reporting that someone could fly.

However, Zhuang Jie was his confidant.

Such a person cherishes power and would never say such things based on mere rumors.

If there is a mistake, wouldn't I lose my official position, or even my life?

Since he dared to make that guarantee, it means there's some truth to it.

"Sect Leader Zhuang is absolutely right!" The Ghost King bowed. "Your Majesty, please take a look!"

After saying that, his body floated up into the air.

Stepping on the void is like walking on an invisible staircase.

This world has martial arts and masters who can shatter the void.

However, even light-footed skills have their basic principles.

The most advanced lightness skill in the world is based on controlling one's internal energy, which can only reduce the weight of the body. It's like a person on the moon who can easily jump higher than on Earth.

However, it will fall eventually; it's impossible for anyone to stand in mid-air as if they were living on flat ground.

"What is this?" Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stood up, and even the shadow eunuch moved from the shadows to the light, looking at the Ghost King Xu Ruowu with disbelief.

The sight of the Ghost King flying out of thin air was truly shocking for ordinary martial arts practitioners.

"This is the Path of Immortal Martial Arts," the Ghost King said, landing on the ground. "It was created by the Supreme Daoist Lord Tai Xuan, and currently has nine realms. I am currently at the second realm, the True Qi Realm, with a lifespan..."

Six hundred years ago, with a wave of the hand, one could destroy mountains and shatter peaks, and even fly through the air and disappear into the earth.

"Six hundred years?" Zhu Yuanzhang exclaimed in shock. "How can a person live for six hundred years?"

The Ghost King laughed, and with a thought, he began to circulate his true energy.

The next moment, his appearance rapidly became younger.

"I had been thinking of entering the palace to see His Majesty, so I maintained my original appearance. Now that His Majesty is right in front of me, I no longer need to go through the trouble of maintaining my aged appearance."

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked to see the Ghost King transform into a young boy in the blink of an eye.

This scene was even more shocking to him than the Ghost King flying away.

He is old.

Even the most brilliant emperors, in their old age, would think about immortality.

No, as long as one is human, when life is about to end, who can escape the mundane?

Since ancient times, the only way to survive is death!

This applies to ordinary people, and naturally, it applies to emperors as well:

Zhu Yuanzhang strode forward, his expression excited: "This is truly the way to immortality! Master Xu, can I learn it too?"

“Of course,” the Ghost King laughed. “That is precisely why I came here.”

Then he told her about the chat group and the fact that he was going to meet Zhu Yuanzhang from another world.

"Your Majesty, Zhu Yuanzhang wishes to meet with you to discuss cooperation. At that time, Your Majesty can naturally seek the elixir of immortality."

Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked: "Me from another world?"

“757, yes.” The Ghost King nodded.

Zhu Yuanzhang then asked, "Has your daughter already joined that chat group and become acquainted with Daojun?"

The Ghost King nodded: "Not bad."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhuang Jie: "What about Zhuang Qingshuang?"

"At my daughter's urging, Miss Zhuang has agreed to serve Daojun," the Ghost King said with a smile. "She will soon be sent to the Great Luo Heaven."

Zhu Yuanzhang listened in silence, his mind racing with thoughts.

The Ghost King had done Daojun a favor, so how could he not reciprocate?

As an emperor who rose from humble beginnings, he was extremely adept at navigating social situations.

"Zhuang Jie, prepare yourself. Tomorrow I will meet with the emperor of another realm to discuss cooperation between our two realms. You will then select beautiful women for me and send them to the Great Luo Heaven!"

Zhuang Jie was dumbfounded.

Your Majesty, what are you doing?!

Is it something a human being would do to select concubines to compete with my daughter for the emperor's favor?

However, circumstances forced him to comply, and he had no choice but to obey.
