Quickly Transmigrate to Save the Child of Heaven

Chapter 133: Cloud Feather Snow Chongzi 6

On the day of the palace bride selection, Gong Zishang couldn't wait to put on her beautiful clothes early in the morning, happily preparing to join in the fun. However, when she opened the door, she was surprised to find Xue Chongzi standing quietly outside.

Gong Zishang smiled with surprise and playfully said, "Aren't you afraid of the elders scolding you?" Then, she naturally took Xue Chongzi's arm and started to act coquettishly. Xue Chongzi gently smoothed her hair and whispered, "I miss you. Xiaoxue told me that if I could come to you on my own initiative, you would be very happy..."

Gong Zishang's eyes sparkled with joy as she nodded repeatedly, "Yes! I'm truly happy..." Then, excitedly, she pulled Xue Chongzi towards the bustling palace entrance. They sat down on a rooftop, gazing down at the scene below. They watched as exquisite boats slowly sailed in, each bearing a host of beautiful brides. A group of maids had already been dispatched by the palace gates to assist the brides disembark.

Gong Zishang snuggled in Xue Chongzi's warm embrace and asked curiously, "Do you think there are any Wufeng assassins here? And how many are there?"

Xue Zhongzi answered without hesitation, "Three!" Gong Zishang's eyes widened, and he looked at Xue Zhongzi in surprise, asking doubtfully, "How did you know?"

Xue Chongzi looked at her surprised expression and laughed out loud. Then he hugged Gong Zishang and said, "Sit tight, be careful not to fall!" He glanced at the woman below, then at Gong Zishang, and said with some pride, "This is called strength!"

Gong Zishang rolled her eyes at him, thinking he was showing off his abilities. She asked Xue Chongzi how he knew none of these women were assassins, and Xue Chongzi explained it was simple: the palace marriage selection process didn't allow martial artists to participate. Gong Zishang rolled her eyes and said, "The palace is plagued by poison all year round. If it were me, I would choose someone with martial arts skills. No wonder the wives of the palace ladies have always had short lives and low fertility rates."

Xue Chongzi felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He touched his nose and agreed with Gong Zishang's point of view. He also believed that the palace's rules were disadvantageous to women, but as the ruler of the Snow Palace in the back mountain, he could not refute it or change these regulations. However, he believed that Gong Zishang would break this rule, and the palace would become better and better.

The bride was arranged by Gong Shangjiao to rest in the women's guest quarters. He then assigned numerous guards to patrol the courtyard. All of this was intended to expose the Wufeng assassins. Meanwhile, Gong Zishang, after escorting Xue Chongzi to the back mountain, was about to return to the Shang Palace. Suddenly, she sensed someone following her, and she quickly turned and grabbed the person.

Gong Zishang grabbed Gong Huanyu's neck and asked, "Tell me! Why are you following me?"

Gong Huanyu was out of breath and struggled to answer, "You promised me that you would help me destroy Wufeng when I returned from the back mountain, but so many days have passed and you haven't made any move. Are you lying to me?"

Gong Zishang let go of his hand, rolled his eyes, and said disdainfully: "What good will it do me to lie to you?" Gong Huanyu frowned and said: "Who knows if you are doing this on purpose because of Gong Shangjiao..."

Gong Zishang sneered and said sarcastically, "Ha! What do I have to do after eating? Take it, and make a breakthrough in your martial arts. It's almost time." After that, she threw an exquisite box into Gong Huanyu's arms, then turned and left.

Gong Huanyu looked at the box in his arms with some confusion. He carefully opened the lid and found a crystal clear Izumo Juelian inside. It was said that consuming this Izumo Juelian could increase one's martial arts skills by twenty years, making it an invaluable treasure for martial artists.

Gong Huanyu wondered inwardly, could it be that Gong Zishang hadn't lied to him? He decided to follow Gong Zishang's advice and try to break through his own strength.

In the women's guest house, Yun Weishan changed her clothes and prepared to go out to inquire about the news, but when she reached the door, she was stopped by the guards. She thought to herself that if she forced her way out, her martial arts skills would definitely be exposed, and then she would be in trouble. So she decided to be patient for the time being and wait until night to find a way out. At this moment, Shangguan Qian from upstairs suddenly asked, "Sister Yun, where are you going?"

Yun Weishan looked up at the building, smiled, and replied, "I was planning to go out for a walk, but the guards at the door told me I couldn't go out! I wonder what my sister is planning to do?"

Shangguan Qian smiled and said, "I just made some tea. Would you be so kind as to try some?"

Yun Weishan readily agreed, "Of course..." and then walked into Shangguan Qian's room. As soon as he entered, a charming aroma filled his nose, making him feel relaxed and happy. The room was elegantly decorated, with exquisite teacups and teapots placed on the table. Shangguan Qian slowly poured a cup of tea, handed it to Yun Weishan, and said, "Try the tea I brought from home..."

Yun Weishan picked up the teacup, sniffed it, and praised, "Good tea..." Then he gently put the cup down. Shangguan Qian saw this and said tentatively, "The sky and the earth are dark yellow..."

Yun Weishan answered without hesitation: "Ghosts and monsters!"

Shangguan Qian smiled, took a sip from the teacup, and said, "Sure enough, Sister Yun is from Wufeng. I wonder what stage you are in?"

Yun Weishan replied calmly: "Chi!"

Shangguan Qian raised the corners of her mouth slightly and laughed softly: "Sister is Mei..."

Yun Weishan said nothing more, but stood up silently and left. She came to the palace gate with only one goal in mind - to find out the truth about her sister Yun Que's death and avenge her.

A faint smile played across Shangguan Qian's lips, a hint of amusement flickering in her eyes. She thought to herself, "How innocent Yun Weishan is!" She couldn't help but marvel at the inconceivable fact that someone so innocent could survive in the harsh conditions of Wufeng. After all, Wufeng's first rule was never to trust others, or risk irreparable destruction. She had come to Gongmen this time to gauge their willingness to collaborate with her to eliminate Wufeng, their nemesis. Although Gongmen had once been her enemy, their inaction had led to the tragic annihilation of the entire Gushan Sect. However, perhaps by divine intervention, she survived her fall from the cliff and was rescued by Dianzhu, who took refuge within Wufeng. For years, she had yearned day and night to kill Dianzhu and annihilate Wufeng, avenging her blood feud. Unfortunately, Dian Zhu managed to escape the poisoning plan she carefully planned last time because he somehow obtained Baicaocui.
