After being exiled for eighteen years, the prince returned to the capital as a veritable immortal.

"Squeak!"

With a crisp sound, Hu Die's steps in the snow came to an abrupt halt.

"I feel... something has changed?" She looked up at the sky, then at Zhou Yi, who remained motionless.

Her cultivation level was barely at the Golden Core Realm.

Being able to vaguely sense things related to the rules of heaven and earth is already considered quite acute of the six senses.

As a grandmaster, Si Xuan's perception was much clearer.

"The rules of heaven and earth seem to have been relaxed."

He had some insights, but he wasn't sure.

Both of them turned their gazes toward Zhou Yi.

"The seal on the dragon vein has been broken, and the upper limit of cultivation has been lifted," Zhou Yi said calmly.

"The dragon vein seal has been broken?!" Si Xuan and Hu Die exclaimed in surprise.

The two originally thought...

In order to break the seal on the dragon vein, Zhou Yi will inevitably have to clash with the Martial Emperor.

Unexpectedly, instead of His Highness making a move, someone else revealed it first.

"Who made the move?" Hu Die asked.

Zhou Yi continued walking forward, saying, "A mysterious person hiding in the shadows."

"Wow, in that case, Your Highness could become a terrestrial immortal!" Si Xuan exclaimed excitedly.

With Your Highness's exceptional talent for cultivation, unleashing your cultivation potential will surely allow you to advance to the level of an immortal.

My goodness!

Those are divine beings who do not eat human grains and can travel to heaven and earth.

Just thinking about it makes me excited for His Highness.

"Doesn't that mean the Overlord Emperor and the Underworld Emperor will be born soon?" Hu Die asked worriedly.

Those two terrestrial immortals, who became famous three thousand years ago, harbored deep hatred for the Great Qian Dynasty.

They definitely won't let the Zhou family have a good life.

Zhou Yi remained silent, tacitly agreeing with what the two had said.

My steps quickened involuntarily.

The breaking of the dragon vein seal will trigger many subsequent reactions, and he needs to hurry up and clean up the mess.

“Crackle, crackle…”

Hu Die and Si Xuan followed with light steps.

So what if two terrestrial immortals emerge from seclusion?

Your Highness is not alarmed at all; you must be confident in handling this.

……

royal palace.

Those at the Grandmaster level and above, including the Martial Emperor, were all shaken.

Zhu Anshi, Wei Qing, and other leaders of the battle ceased their attacks once again.

The leader called a truce, and his men also remained inactive.

The high-level cultivators could hardly believe their own feelings.

In particular, Wei Qing, Huo Wubing, the Netherworld Ancestor, and Zhu Anshi.

All four were veteran semi-immortals, whose cultivation levels had been stuck at the peak of the Celestial Realm for many years.

No matter how hard I try, I can't make any further progress.

just now.

They actually sensed that the barrier to their realm was loosening.

It seems that he could be promoted to a terrestrial immortal at any time.

How can this be?

Ji Tiandi suppressed the dragon vein with his own body, thus limiting his cultivation limit to the Celestial Realm.

If the barrier to cultivation is loosened, doesn't that mean the seal on the dragon vein has been broken?

Only the reigning emperor is qualified to break the seal on the dragon vein.

The Empress stood peacefully on the palace wall.

How could I possibly break the seal on the dragon vein?

Upon closer inspection, the group was overjoyed.

The realm restriction has indeed been lifted; they can now advance to the level of terrestrial immortals!

All eyes turned to the Martial Emperor.

The Martial Emperor was equally bewildered.

He didn't understand.

He didn't try to break the seal on the dragon vein, so why was the upper limit of his cultivation level removed?

"Hahaha……"

"Jie Jie Jie..."

Zhu Anshi and the Netherworld Ancestor looked at each other and laughed.

Their goal is to break the seal on the dragon vein.

The so-called struggle for the throne was nothing more than using the second and sixth princes.

Driven by their desire for the throne, they tricked the emperor into unlocking the seal on the dragon vein.

The ultimate goal is to release the Overlord Emperor and the Underworld Emperor, who are sealed underground.

The goal has now been achieved.

Why should they continue fighting each other?

Moreover, they were already at a disadvantage.

"Emperor Wu, the Great Qian Dynasty is mighty!"

Zhu Anshi verbally conceded, saying, "We are willing to withdraw our troops and make peace."

The Netherworld Ancestor chimed in, "From now on, we will keep to ourselves and the Great Qian Dynasty. What do you say?"

Emperor Wu temporarily set aside the matter of the dragon vein and considered his current adversary.

The Underworld Ancestor and Zhu Anshi have been completely outmatched.

Logically speaking, he certainly wouldn't want to let the tiger return to the mountain.

however.

He could also clearly see that these two old geezers were immediately resurrected after being killed.

If they don't give up.

After exhausting the magical power of the two princes and two generals, our side may be counter-killed.

It has been planned for more than 20 years.

They had finally managed to bring the Mahayana sect and the Underworld race into the imperial city, but they could only watch helplessly as they were released.

The Empress was filled with resentment.

Moreover, the dragon vein was opened up amidst the chaos.

The Martial Emperor, who had spent his life fighting in the north and south, could not swallow this insult.

"Emperor Wu, if you don't speak, we'll take that as your tacit consent!"

Zhu Anshi called out from afar.

"Well then, we're off!" The Netherworld Ancestor waved to the palace wall.

A sound, though soft, was clearly audible to everyone in the arena:

"Leave? What is the Great Qian Imperial City then?"

A figure in a black python robe stepped into the square.

Zhou Yi said calmly, "Since you're here, stay forever."

The Imperial Grandson?!

Both sides were taken aback.

Isn't he in Wansuhai, thousands of miles away?

His appearance at this moment further proves that the newly formed trap on the outside must be his doing.

Could it be.

Does he really want to slaughter both sides in the conflict?

The Netherworld Ancestor, Zhu Anshi, felt a sense of foreboding as his pupils contracted.

Over the years, the two have enjoyed great success and have become quite famous.

However, they all suffered a major setback when it came to Zhou Yi.

This figure became a nightmare for the two of them.

Wei Qing and Huo Wubing stared intently at Zhou Yi.

Grand Marshal Wei Qing was the younger brother of Empress Wei, the mother of the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince's maternal uncle, who is also Zhou Yi's maternal uncle.

General Huo Wubing's mother was the sister of Empress Wei.

According to seniority, Zhou Yi should call him his cousin.

Within the imperial court, these two were among the few relatives of the emperor who were related to Zhou Yi.

"Uncle, cousin."

Upon their first meeting, Zhou Yi first greeted the two elders.

"what--"

"Greetings, Your Highness Prince Yi!" Wei Qing and Huo Wubing hurriedly bowed.

Although the two were elders, there was a distinction between ruler and subject.

As is customary, the two should first pay their respects to the grandson of the emperor.

However, the two were so surprised and momentarily stunned that they were momentarily speechless.

Therefore, Zhou Yi got there first.

"Your Highness, there is an heir!" Wei Qing's eyes welled up with tears.

"The student has surpassed the master, and is even better than the Crown Prince!" Huo Wubing exclaimed.

The two felt both gratified and saddened.

When Zhou Yi reunited with his family, he was filled with a mixture of sadness and excitement.

however.

A cold, authoritative voice shattered the lingering warmth.

"Prince Yi, did you break the seal on the dragon vein?"

The Emperor looked down at him with an air of authority and asked the question.

After all, Zhou Yi had personally told him that he wanted to break the seal on the dragon vein and try to resurrect his parents.

Was the Dragon Vein unveiled by the Imperial Grandson?

Everyone was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what was going on.

Zhou Yi's dissatisfaction with Empress Wu was well known.

Just now, everyone was fighting to the death here.

He first set up a trap, confining everyone in the imperial city.

However, he did not appear afterwards.

Perhaps, it is precisely to break the seal on the dragon vein.

Sure enough, he appeared as soon as the dragon vein seal was broken.

He was motivated, timed perfectly, and was more capable than anyone else present.

Who else could it be but him?

A series of unfriendly gazes were cast at Zhou Yi.

"Ah."

Zhou Yi laughed, "Why doesn't Your Majesty take a look and see who's missing by your side?"

Who is missing from my life?

The Emperor was taken aback.

The fourth and fifth princes were also taken aback.

On the palace walls, there were only a few of them; the ministers were almost all frozen into ice sculptures.

The three turned around, their hearts filled with even greater shock.

Just now, when Zhu Anshi was about to use the palace wall as a disguise, it caused a commotion among the crowd.

At that time, the Third Prince also protected the Fourth Prince.

Turning around now, the Third Prince's figure had vanished without a trace.

"The Imperial Seal!" Emperor Wu exclaimed in surprise.

prior to.

The imperial seal was placed on a plate by the eunuch and frozen into an ice sculpture.

Because there are almost no outsiders on the palace walls.

Moreover, with one unexpected event after another occurring at the palace gates, Empress Wu did not have time to put away the imperial seal.

At this moment.

The Third Prince and the Imperial Seal disappeared together.

It was this rebellious son who stole the imperial seal and broke the seal on the dragon vein.

The Empress was furious.

He turned around and reached out towards the Imperial Study.

"boom!"

A large hole was torn in the wall of the study.

The third prince was pulled back to the palace wall by Lingkong.

At this moment, the third prince's legs were trembling, and he was holding the Imperial Seal of the State in his hands.

"Rebel!"

The Emperor was furious.

Could the evil dragon of the Zhou family that Master Ji foretold be him?

The third prince?
