His Majesty is plotting a rebellion? Quickly, summon the Imperial Advisor!

Zhou Xiaoyou thought bitterly to himself.

Then she realized that her senior sister was right in front of her, and with her backing her up, she had no reason to be afraid of this big jerk.

"Humph."

So, as she jumped into the room, she gave Xu Bing a dirty look, saying, "You'll be begging me to untie this immortal master in a minute."

However, that smug expression didn't last long.

The instant after entering the room.

The air freezes.

Zhou Xiaoyou's nostrils flared slightly, his mouth gradually opened wider, and his eyes widened.

He had an expression of disbelief.

He was completely dazed.

And opposite her.

That is, Empress Ji Yuan of the Great Xi Dynasty, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, looked at her junior sister who had come to visit.

A feeling of indescribable embarrassment welled up in her heart... Zhou Xiaoyou had always regarded her as an older sister, admired her greatly, and held her in a perfect image in his mind.

She absolutely did not want to appear in front of Zhou Xiaoyou in such a disheveled state.

pity…

What she couldn't change was that it had already happened.

At this moment, the two sisters, one senior and one junior, looked at each other.

They looked at each other.

And the other side.

Xu Bingzheng watched this scene with great interest.

He admitted that he did not have good intentions in arranging for these two fellow disciples to meet; he had a certain wicked sense of humor.

But... this was Zhou Xiaoyou's own request, so we can't blame him.

"Sister?"

Zhou Xiaoyou snapped out of his daze, his tone filled with deep confusion.

I can hardly believe it. The person sitting on the bed is actually my senior sister, the majestic Empress of Da Xi, the supreme ruler of the mortal realm.

Ji Yuan sensed this emotion, closed her eyes in despair, and nodded in response to Zhou Xiaoyou that she hadn't misread it.

"Senior sister? Aren't you the Empress of Da Xi?"

What happened to you?

Zhou Xiaoyou posed a profound question.

"Hey!" Xu Bing kindly reminded her, "Your senior sister can't speak right now."

Zhou Xiaoyou saw the red apple that Ji Yuan was biting into and suddenly felt a chill. He looked at Xu Bing and exclaimed, "Fatty! It's you!"

"It was you who arrested my senior sister!"

"You've arrested me again!"

Xu Bing, annoyed by Zhou Xiaoyou's noise, stuffed an apple into her mouth and then opened the monarch panel.

Ji Yuan

[Identity: Emperor of the Great Xi Dynasty]

[Status: Rage, Bloodlust, Frustration, Despair, Shame, Regret, Restraint]

【Destiny: Extreme Imperial Destiny】

[Fortune: Nine Dragons Gathering at the Cauldron, Imperial Fortune]

[Prestige: 135]

【Charm: 98】

……

Overall, it was not unexpected for Xu Bing.

My prestige has increased by another ten points.

It seems the power of the Xuanjia soldiers in the Great Xi Imperial City is still brewing.

I'm afraid that after seven days...

The princess comes down the mountain.

Heads rolled in! This demonstrates their ruthless methods once again.

That prestige will continue to skyrocket.

Xu Bing looked at Zhou Xiaoyou, waved his hand, and tied the woman up just like Ji Yuan.

He then turned and left.

After he left.

The two women looked at each other and communicated with muffled sounds. Ji Yuan gestured for Zhou Xiaoyou to move over and remove the apple from her mouth.

It took half an hour.

The two women finally regained the right to speak, and they talked in hushed tones.

Zhou Xiaoyou: "Senior sister, what happened? Why are you here too..."

Ji Yuan: "Sigh, this is a long story. And you, why are you here?"

Zhou Xiaoyou recounted the events of Penglai Mountain to Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan's furrowed brows relaxed slightly; this was good news.

Zhou Xiaoyou said with some worry, "Senior sister, do you think that fatso might kill us?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and analyzed, "Probably not. If they wanted to kill, they would have done so long ago."

"But... Senior Sister, I'm so scared, waaaaah..." Zhou Xiaoyou's voice was trembling with sobs.

"Don't be afraid, your senior sister is here," Ji Yuan reassured her.

Then, in a fit of irritation, he said, "This will teach you a lesson, you brat. Let's see if you dare to mess around with the mortal world again next time."

Ji Yuan's eyes were deep as he said, "Xiao You, after this matter is resolved, you'd better not come to Da Xi again."

"Why?" Zhou Xiaoyou asked, puzzled.

Ji Yuan sighed and said, "Da Xi is a place where power is mixed. It will not be good for your future path. If you come here too often, you will become vulgar."

"and…"

"If you come a few more times, you'll see your senior sister getting old."

Zhou Xiaoyou said, "No, that won't happen."

Ji Yuan said, "I meant Old Xin... Anyway, don't come again."

As soon as these words came out.

The two women fell silent.

Ji Yuan then suggested that the two of them try to untie the rope for each other.

……

the other side.

Xu Bing looked into the bronze mirror. The person in the mirror was tall and imposing, with an impeccable appearance and demeanor. His narrow eyes held a domineering and aggressive air, yet also contained a hint of peach blossom-like allure.

Unfortunately, such beauty can only be appreciated by oneself for now.

Once the "old ways" of its predecessor are eliminated, it can be transformed.

He took off his clothes to eliminate the "old order" and reveal his true self.

Having some background in the immortals, Xu Bing had a rudimentary understanding of cultivation based on his remaining memories.

The path of Qi cultivators emphasizes one's true self and appearance, focusing on breathing in primordial energy and tempering the body, but it doesn't significantly alter one's appearance or physique.

But he has already reached the stage of carrying a lantern; further cultivation would not be useless, but it would merely be icing on the cake.

He would rather engage in martial arts to improve his skills and temper his mind.

Furthermore, there is no clear distinction between strong and weak among Qi cultivators and martial artists.

The strong are strong regardless of whether they cultivate Qi or martial arts; the weak are weak, and even if their cultivation level is slightly better, they will still struggle when facing an enemy.

A realm is just a realm.

Let us not forget that "human beings" are the foundation of everything.

Before engaging in martial arts, warming up is essential. Xu Bing exercises vigorously until he is drenched in sweat, the water evaporates quickly, and he begins to feel tired.

Only then can you be considered to be in the zone.

He began practicing stance training, reciting the "Tongbei Miscellaneous Fist" from his previous life's memories.

As the body is exercised, muscle lines become more defined, and the old habits gradually dissipate.

He has always been a very persevering person.

He will accomplish whatever he sets his mind to, no matter how difficult or dangerous it may be.

【Ding! 】

It's midnight.

[Host, have you checked in?]

Late at night.

The system's voice sounded again.

Before I knew it, I had reached the fifth day of meditation.

On the first day of the Tranquility Festival, the original inhabitant sneaked into the Tranquility Palace, used the Golden Essence Rope to bind Ji Yuan, and was killed by the backlash of the dragon energy.

Xu Bing also transmigrated that day. After midnight, the next day, he signed in and received an enhancement ticket. After that, the Empress crashed and he digested the Ultimate Mortal Fruit.

Once midnight had passed, on the third day, I signed in, calmed my mind, and burned three incense sticks. I then practiced the "Mastery of Creation Technique," which took exactly one whole day.

After midnight, on the fourth day, I checked in and found a Zhou Xiaoyou.

And now.

Once midnight has passed, it will be the fifth day.

Xu Bing was covered in sweat, but he did not respond. Instead, he planned to slip away to sign in elsewhere.

Now that he possesses cultivation, he naturally has no fear of his whereabouts being exposed. Moreover, no one is allowed to enter the entire Tranquil Manor.

He came to "Jingxuantang", the place where Ji Yuan bathed during the Jingxin Festival.

"Sign in!" Xu Bing thought to himself.

[Sign-in successful. Sign-in location: Jingxuan Soup. Obtained the magical artifact: the Ever-Changing Mask!]

【The Ever-Changing Mask: The wearer can change their appearance.】

【Ding! 】

[Check-in bonus!]

[Bonus Martial Art: Nine-Sound Fist]

The sign-in reward caught Xu Bing's eye.

He figured it might be because of the new check-in location, hence the check-in overload.

Worth to talk about.

Everything he gets from signing in is useful and helpful to him.

Xu Bingzheng lacks a martial art for weight loss and self-defense. Using martial arts to lose weight should be more effective than exercise in his previous life.

The interior of Jingxuan Soup is simple and unpretentious. Inside, there is a lotus-shaped pool with constantly flowing warm water that also emits a natural fragrance.

Xu Bing jumped into the pool and washed away the mud from his body.

I felt completely relaxed for the first time.

He gazed at the shimmering rooftop and slowly clenched his fist.

Now that we're here... let's do our best!

It is for the sake of the people of Da Xi.

Also for myself.

Once the seventh day of the Meditation Festival is over, he will solidify his position as the Imperial Preceptor!

As for Ji Yuan?

Then we can only continue to make this woman suffer.

He won't kill her.

But I will never give her any chance.

【Ding! 】

[The host is temporarily safe.]

[Task available!]
