The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

Hearing that the new emperor wanted to see him and Mu Zhi, Zeng Wenyu knew that the disaster of the new country had been dealt with, or at least it had come to an end, otherwise the new emperor would definitely not have time. Zeng Wenyu was not in a hurry. There was still some time before the white mist forest appeared, enough for him and Mu Zhi to arrive before it appeared. Even if the white mist forest opened tomorrow, what would happen? Zeng Wenyu did not have the ability to fly in the air now, so could Mu Zhi not fly in the air and take him there quickly?

Coming to Xin Wenyuan, Zeng Wenyu looked at him who had just come out of the palace. There was fatigue that was hard to conceal on his face. He believed that he had been very busy recently.

He took out a gourd from the storage ring and poured out a pill and handed it to Xin Wenyuan. Of course, this pill was not a precious one, it was just a pill that could relieve fatigue. Xin Wenyuan took the pill from Zeng Wenyu without any doubt and swallowed it. The fatigue on his face was visibly reduced.

"Brother Wenyuan, do you know why the new emperor summoned us?"

"Yes, my father said that Brother Zeng and Miss Mu helped us in this disaster, and he also said that he wanted to thank you for a reason that he couldn't even tell a senior about."

The new emperor couldn't tell Xin Wenyuan's senior, so it was naturally the ghost girl. Zeng Wenyu nodded: "Okay, then we will go to see the new emperor. By the way, is there anything we need to pay attention to when meeting the new emperor?"

"No, my father told me when I came here that I can just take you two there. All the etiquette in the palace can be abolished in front of you two."

Nodding to Xin Wenyuan, the two followed him. After Xin Wenyuan gave Princess Xianglan a few instructions, he led the two towards the palace.

After passing through the palace gate and following Xin Wenyuan along the road, he soon brought Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi to the new emperor's study. Originally, Xin Wenyuan wanted to let the eunuch guarding the door go in and report, but the three of them had just walked to the door of the imperial study when they heard the new emperor's voice asking them to go in directly.

The emperor's study was naturally magnificent, with a large number of books on the bookshelves on both sides, and there were also many rare treasures in the room. When the new emperor saw Zeng Wenyu and Mu Zhi, he stood up to greet them under Xin Wenyuan's incredible gaze.

"Hahaha, my two fellow Taoists, such a big thing happened in my country before, and there are so many things that need to be dealt with. I am really embarrassed to have neglected you two."

"Brother, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. We all know that state affairs are more important, and we're not in a hurry. Even if you come to us after you've dealt with your business, we can understand."

"How can I let you two wait for so long?" The new emperor shook his head gently. "By the way, are you two here in the imperial city of my new country for something important?"

"What's so important about that?" Zeng Wenyu smiled. "We both came here to borrow a treasure from the new emperor."

"Oh? The treasure of my Xin country? What treasure is it? As long as you ask, fellow Taoist, as long as Xin country has it."

"To be honest, brother, I need to replenish the five elements of innate energy for my cultivation. Now I only need the innate wood. When I came here, I met the wife of brother Wang Ke in Xinkang City. The cane in her hand had the scent of innate wood. She said that the cane was made from a branch broken from a tree in the White Mist Forest. It was the innate wood in the cane made from that branch that had been nourishing her body and preventing her injuries from getting worse..."

Hearing this, the new emperor frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable: "Ahem... Wang Ke is a brother who has followed me all the way to build a new country... I also know that the crutch has been nourishing his wife's injuries. If his wife's injuries are no longer nourished by the crutch, I'm afraid they will break out completely. I can't do that..."

"Brother, what are you thinking? I'm not the kind of person who would take the things that sustain someone's life!"

"That……"

"I was saying that General Wang Ke's wife said that the White Mist Forest is the easiest place for people to get lost, and if I want to obtain the Innate Wood, I have to go deep into the White Mist Forest," Zeng Wenyu said, bowing solemnly to the new emperor before continuing, "I heard from Madam Wang that the new emperor has a treasure that can point to the new country's imperial city. I would like to borrow that treasure."

"It can always point to the imperial city..." The new emperor paused here, and he immediately understood what treasure Zeng Wenyu wanted to borrow, but that treasure...

Seeing that his father did not say it, Xin Wenyuan continued: "Brother Zeng, are you talking about the Dinglong Needle?"

"Dragon-fixing needle?"

"Yes! The Dinglong Needle is a treasure that points to the head of the dragon vein of my New Kingdom. My father gave it to me a long time ago and I have kept it all the time. Because if the Dinglong Needle falls into the hands of an outsider and really cuts off the head of my dragon vein, the fate of the New Kingdom..."

Zeng Wenyu had never thought of this. He thought that this treasure should be quite valuable, because he could tell from Mrs. Wang's words that Mrs. Wang did not think that Zeng Wenyu could borrow this treasure at that time. But he had never thought that this treasure was actually related to the destiny of the new country.

"if it is like this……"

"Borrowed! Wenyuan, take out the Dinglong Needle and give it to Fellow Daoist Zeng!"

"Father..."

"Hmm?" The new emperor frowned slightly and looked sideways at Xin Wenyuan, "When did you object to my decision?"

Xin Wenyuan was sweating profusely: "This... Father, I will go get the Dinglong needle. Please wait here for a while, Father, Brother Zeng, and Miss Mu."

Seeing Xin Wenyuan leaving in a hurry, Zeng Wenyu looked at the new emperor and said, "Brother, if it is a very important treasure, I think I won't lend it to you. The Dinglong Needle is related to the fate of the new country..."

"Hahaha, don't worry, fellow Daoist. I don't trust anyone and I won't distrust you. I feel relieved to hand over the Dinglong Needle to you. I know you definitely don't have any bad intentions. I'm just borrowing the Dinglong Needle."

"Can……"

"Fellow Daoist! If you keep refusing, you're looking down on me!"

Seeing the serious and determined expression on the new emperor's face, Zeng Wenyu finally did not say much. He could only nod and agree, and promised to bring the Dinglong Needle back to the new emperor intact.

"Hahaha, it's settled," the new emperor laughed. "I'll ask the imperial kitchen to prepare a banquet. When my son brings back the Dinglong Needle, please don't refuse my invitation!"

"No, brother, how can I refuse the banquet you prepared? I also want to try the food of Xinguo."
