After being married off by my younger sister, I took care of the sickly prince

Several elders looked at each other, their expressions different, but all revealed a hint of hesitation.

The seventh elder, dressed in red, grinned grimly, his features twisting with his laughter. "So what if our reputation is ruined? Our Qingyun Sect is a legend on the Qingyun Continent. Those mortals are nothing more than ants. What do we have to fear?"

After hearing what the Seventh Elder said, the other elders thought for a moment, and their concerns seemed to be dispelled by these inflammatory words, and they all nodded in agreement.

"Yes! We in the Qingyun Sect possess the supreme secret method of becoming an immortal. What else can those mortals do except tremble and bow to us?"

"In my opinion, there's no need to hide this anymore! Justice and morality are all illusory things! We should take this opportunity to put pressure on the three kingdoms and force them to pay tribute with more furnaces and tripods. That's the real benefit!"

"Having our sacrificial ceremony ruined by those three clueless girls is a great disgrace to our Qingyun Sect! We must get back at the Qifeng Nation! How about going all out and attacking Qifeng Nation directly? What do you think?"

"I agree! The furnace and tripod tributed by Qifeng Country is far superior to those of the other two countries in terms of both quality and appearance. Hahahahaha..."

"Hahahahaha, look at how little you can do. But what you said does make sense!"

A playful smile flashed across the eyes of Sect Master Qin Yuan. He spoke slowly, his voice filled with unquestionable authority: "In that case, let's start with Qifeng Nation!"

"We must also make the portraits of those three little girls public, so that the Qifeng Nation will know that their disasters are caused by their own people!"

"Okay! Let's do it!" The elders echoed in unison, and the atmosphere was warm and enthusiastic.

The Seventh Elder stroked his beard with a smile, his eyes flashing with lustful light: "I heard that the eldest princess of Qifeng Kingdom has a spoiled personality. I am in need of such a plaything. Sect Master, you must help me!"

"Aren't the women in the backyard enough for you to deal with? Be careful or you might die in bed one day!" Qin Yuan joked.

"Hehe, Sect Master, you don't understand the fun of this." The Seventh Elder's smile became even more perverse. "I just like these women of noble status and spoiled personalities. Watching their pride being broken bit by bit by me, and living a humiliating and humble life under my crotch, that's a real pleasure!"

Qin Yuan and the other elders all burst into laughter upon hearing this, and the entire conference hall was filled with a strange and evil atmosphere.

On the other side, Lu Yan and Lan Wushuang, who had already used the teleportation talisman to return to Chong'an Palace, were sitting opposite each other at this moment, both of them with an unconcealable worry on their faces.

"Sister Wushuang, do you think the master can come back safely?" There was a hint of trembling in Lu Yan's voice.

"Master is very powerful and will definitely be able to escape from them." Although Lan Wushuang said this, the worry in his eyes did not diminish.

In the main courtyard, Fu Xuanyu was giving Zhufeng a serious instruction: "The city's security must be strengthened. Also, you must practice the physical training techniques that the princess gave you more diligently in the coming days!"

Zhu Feng nodded respectfully, "Don't worry, Your Highness. We've been practicing diligently day and night since we got the technique. Already, more than a dozen of our brothers have broken through to the third level, and three have even broken through to the sixth level."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuanyu nodded slightly, with a look of relief on his face.

At this time, Nanny Wang came in with a bowl of medicine. She stepped forward and said softly, "Your Highness, it's time to take the medicine."

Fu Xuanyu nodded silently, took the medicine bowl, drank it in one gulp, and handed the empty bowl back. His eyes grew deeper and more silent, as if a heavy burden weighed on his heart.

Nanny Wang looked at Fu Xuanyu's increasingly depressed look and could not help but lower her head and wiped away her tears: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the princess is blessed by heaven and will be fine. You don't have to push yourself so hard."

Fu Xuanyu forced a smile and said, "Thank you, Madam. I just wanted to do the job she asked me to do."

Nanny Wang wanted to say something, but she saw that Fu Xuanyu had already turned his wheelchair to the study, sat at the desk and began to write and draw, as if he wanted to devote all his thoughts to these matters.

At the same time, in the East Palace.

Fu Jingchuan held a note in his hand, a cold smile on his lips.

He slowly raised the note and placed it over the candle flame, burning it. Looking at the dancing ashes, he muttered to himself, "The fun is about to begin! I want to see how this old man, the Emperor, will handle it."

The servant beside him said with a worried look on his face: "Your Highness, the Qingyun Sect is targeting our Qifeng Kingdom. Shouldn't we make plans early?"

Fu Jingchuan snorted coldly: "It's time to make plans early. The throne should have been filled by someone else!" His eyes flashed with a firm and cold light, as if he was ready to face the storm.

"Go, gather our forces in secret. When the time is right, it will be our chance to turn the tide."

The servant took the order and left, and undercurrents surged in the entire Phoenix City.

On the other hand, the envoy sent by Qingyun Sect sneaked into the capital and handed a tightly sealed letter to the palace guards.

The letter was written with sharp words, revealing provocation and threats to the imperial power between the lines.

Fu Ming unfolded the letter, his brow furrowed, a flicker of anger and anxiety in his eyes. He immediately ordered, "Summon Prince Chong'an and Princess Chong'an to the palace for an audience immediately!"

The eunuch took the order and walked out quickly.

Fu Xuanyu took the order and boarded the carriage, rushing all the way into the palace.

He turned his wheelchair and slowly drove into the hall, bowing and saying, "Your son greets the emperor, father. Long live the emperor."

"Okay, no need to be so polite!" Fu Ming waved his hand.

Fu Xuanyu then raised his head, looked at Fu Ming and asked, "I wonder why the emperor summoned me so urgently?"

Fu Ming threw the letter on the table and said coldly, "Look, Qingyun Sect dares to be so arrogant. I want to know your opinion."

Fu Xuanyu picked up the letter and quickly glanced through it, his expression solemn. "Recently, many stories about the Qingyun Sect's evil deeds have been circulating on the continent. It seems that the Qingyun Sect is no longer planning to pretend. I believe that we cannot give in on this matter, otherwise our Qifeng Kingdom will become a puppet of the Qingyun Sect."

Fu Ming nodded thoughtfully. Suddenly, something occurred to him. He looked at Fu Xuanyu and asked, "Why hasn't Jiang Yun arrived yet? I'd also like to know what she thinks about this matter."

Fu Xuanyu said with a worried look on his face, "Father, Jiang Yun has been feeling unwell recently. I'm afraid that her condition will be exacerbated by the strain of staying in the palace, so I'm asking her to recuperate at home. As for this matter, if she were here, she would definitely agree with my opinion."

Fu Ming was silent for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons. "Alright, you step aside first. We need to think this through carefully. Also, strengthen the guards in every district within the borders. If necessary, kill without mercy, without reporting!"
