Chapter 226 Princess Long Yi: You Are All Scum
Chapter 226: Princess Long Yi: You're all trash.
The outcome of the negotiation did not surprise Qin Muling. Compared to being discovered by the former owner of Genesis Star Palace and being captured, along with the annihilation of the entire Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, this was already the most ideal result.
Emperor Xin Yu and Emperor Qing Huan also understood this. As the person from Genesis Star Palace gradually recovered, it would be difficult to conceal the whereabouts of the Innate Primordial Spirit Seed, and Qin Muling's identity would be completely exposed, it was only a matter of time. But they couldn't just watch Qin Muling being taken away by the other party and do nothing.
Instead of being in a disadvantageous position later, it would be better to form an alliance now and join forces to fight against that person.
Currently, Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace only had one Quasi-Saint Emperor presiding over it, and there was no possibility of a second one being born in the short term. Therefore, these three Emperor Kings from Dao Court were indispensable key allies.
"...Muling's cultivation level is still low right now. Princess Long Yi may have to wait a bit longer to get what she wants. How about letting her come back in two years? By then, Muling should be able to break through to the Immortal Transformation realm!" Mu Yinghua said at last.
Since they were equal partners, the difference in their cultivation levels should not be too great, otherwise one side would inevitably suffer. With Princess Long Yi's dominant position, this was almost an unavoidable result, unless Xue Bingxuan and the others could break through to the Mysterious Immortal realm ahead of time.
"It's fine. Let them be together and cultivate their relationship!" Emperor Qing Huan said with a smile, not giving her any chance to delay.
Emperor Qing Huan understood the principle that the night is long and dreams are many. This kind of thing absolutely couldn't be delayed, as it could easily lead to unexpected changes. If there were no people of her own guarding Qin Muling, she wouldn't feel at ease.
Mu Yinghua sighed inwardly, knowing that Emperor Qing Huan would never be fooled. She could only say, "Then let's go with your suggestion."
With a glance at Qin Muling by her side, Mu Yinghua couldn't help but feel sorry for him, but there was no other way. If it wasn't like this, not only would he not be able to protect himself, but even Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace might become history.
Emperor Qing Huan keenly noticed her reaction and immediately said, "So Muling is by your side? Let him come over and say a few words to this palace!"
She also wanted to see the future husband designated for her daughter. It had been quite some time since they last met at Dao Court, and she was indeed looking forward to it.
At that moment, she felt that her thoughts were somewhat strange, but fortunately, her expression remained unchanged, and Emperor Xin Yu and Mu Yinghua on the opposite side didn't notice.
Knowing that he couldn't avoid it, Qin Muling had to come out from behind Emperor Xin Yu and walk to the magic projection mirror, bowing respectfully and greeting them.
"It's truly impressive for a living being that has transformed from an Innate Hongmeng divine object. It hasn't been long, but your luck has significantly changed again. It's truly amazing," Emperor Qing Huan said, her beautiful eyes shining as she stared at the handsome young man in front of her, as if she couldn't get enough of him. Previously, she had only speculated about his identity, but now it was confirmed, and her perception of him naturally changed completely.
At this moment, she did regret her decision back then. If she had been more decisive and found a way to keep this little guy in Dao Court, not only would Princess Long Yi have gotten what she wanted early on, but even...
Now that Qin Muling had returned to Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and had Emperor Xin Yu protecting him with his restored cultivation, it was impossible for him to abandon Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace and join Dao Court. So they could only compromise in this way.
"Now that everything has been decided, let's leave it at that!"
Emperor Xin Yu said, "After the four orthodoxies collapse, the territories and all the legacies left behind by them, as well as the unclaimed Immortal Domains in the surrounding areas, will all belong to our Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace. I hope Dao Court will not interfere at that time."
The four powers naturally refer to Jade Pearl Star Palace, Bright Moon Sword Sect, Nine Spirits Clear Origin Gate, and Jade Drop Divine Temple.
Emperor Qing Huan nodded, "Of course, after this calamity, the Extreme Void Starry Sky will inevitably face another reshuffling of power. As long as the surviving powers have their territories, there will be a significant expansion. Ultimately, how much they can seize depends on their own abilities."
With Qin Muling present, the strength of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace will not only remain intact during the calamity but will also expand rapidly. The range of influence they can have in the future may even exceed that of the past ten Supreme orthodoxies. Even if other powers want to interfere, they will not find suitable reasons and may not have the strength to do so.
Finally, Emperor Qing Huan glanced at Qin Muling and closed the projection mirror, saying to Princess Long Yi beside him, "The matter has been settled. Prepare yourself and set off as soon as possible!"
"Uh... okay."
Princess Long Yi's beautiful face blushed slightly, and she answered softly.
Moreover, this time it cannot be a clone; it must be her true self who goes personally.
Princess Long Yi's true self has been in seclusion for many years. Even during the previous gathering of immortals, she only used her clone to meet Qin Muling. Now that she has decided to choose him as her partner, it is certain that she will go in person.
Her cultivation level had already reached the peak of the Mysterious Immortal realm before her seclusion. After this breakthrough, she firmly broke through the shackles and obtained the Golden Immortal Dao Fruit.
Being a Golden Immortal is considered a prominent figure in the entire Extreme Void Starry Sky. If it were a weaker Supreme orthodoxy, her cultivation level would already be sufficient to become the head. For example, when Mu Yinghua first became the head, her cultivation level was at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm, and she later broke through to the Supreme Primordial Golden Immortal realm.
It is said that Qin Muling's senior sisters are still at the True Immortal level and are still striving to break through to the Mysterious Immortal realm. It seems that suppressing them with her cultivation level will not be a problem, and she doesn't have to worry about being excluded or targeted. That's what Princess Long Yi thought.
On the other hand, Mu Yinghua hugged Qin Muling apologetically, wanting to comfort him, but didn't know where to start.
Emperor Xin Yu didn't think there was anything wrong and said lightly, "After all, she is a rare beauty. You are lucky to have her. In the future, there will be countless benefits. Don't be so sentimental!"
Qin Muling thought to himself that he wasn't being sentimental at all. It was all in the Emperor's imagination. It's just that the princess's cultivation level is too high, and he has no chance now unless he is willing to be squeezed dry by her.
Mu Yinghua snorted, "She and her mother are just after Chen Muling's body. They are nothing like us..."
Then she realized that her words were inappropriate, and her fair face blushed slightly. She changed her words, "In two days, your senior sisters will be back. Take the opportunity while the Illusory Mist Secret Realm is open for about half a year to accompany them well and see if you can help them break through to the Mysterious Immortal realm as soon as possible! As for Princess Long Yi, well, let her wait for a while when she comes."
On their own territory in Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, Mu Yinghua naturally didn't want Qin Muling to suffer any grievances, even though they had reached a strategic alliance with Dao Court, there were still certain specific details that could be manipulated.
Qin Muling nodded and hesitated, "Should we bring her into the Illusory Mist Secret Realm after it opens? It doesn't seem right to deliberately hide it from her, right?"
It would be impossible to hide the secret that she can freely enter and exit with a large amount of resources once Princess Long Yi arrives. If she has any intentions, then she would have to give Dao Court a share of the benefits.
Emperor Xin Yu smiled, "It's okay. Emperor Qing Huan is Emperor Qing Huan, and Dao Court is Dao Court. There is still a difference between the two. If she wants benefits, she can exchange them with equivalent conditions."
"Alright, let's leave it at that."
Qin Muling didn't say anything more. With the Emperor and the Master watching, she wouldn't be at a disadvantage. On the other hand, Princess Long Yi had to rack her brains on how to please herself.
Emperor Xin Yu looked at Qin Muling and said, "There are still over 1,500 Supreme Elders in the Grotto-Heaven realm who haven't recovered. Do you think you should help them heal first, or accompany the senior sisters in seclusion?"
"Let's help them heal first. It won't take too long anyway. We can use the time acceleration array that is three hundred times faster this time."
Qin Muling said that with the effect of the time acceleration array, it would take at most half a month for these elders to fully recover. By then, the high-end combat strength of Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace would be unprecedentedly strengthened, making it more composed and at ease in dealing with the upcoming calamity.
Of course, the most important thing was to add another Quasi-Saint Emperor Monarch Level existence to Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, which would give them a greater chance of facing the person from Genesis Star Palace in the future.
Unfortunately, this matter couldn't be rushed. Qin Muling was equally powerless at the moment and could only wait to discuss it later.
Two days later, Xue Bingxuan and the others returned to the sect's main altar smoothly.
However, they didn't see their junior martial brother, but were called to Mu Yinghua's Cave Mansion, where they were informed of the decision made by the sect's high-level members.
"...What the Emperor and the Master said is very good. I have no objections."
Looking at her silent junior sisters, Xue Bingxuan finally spoke. Regardless of whether she was happy or not in her heart, as the eldest senior sister, she had to take the lead in expressing her stance. It was a matter of life and death for the sect, and she couldn't act stubbornly.
"It's just that our junior martial brother has been wronged."
Qi Yalan said gloomily. The decision of the Emperor and the Master was undoubtedly a win-win result, although it made them feel less happy.
However, Luo Wanqing was angry but also somewhat relieved. After all, the Master had already promised her and their junior martial brother to achieve good things in advance, so they didn't have to wait any longer. As for that foxy Princess Long Yi, let her wait for a few more years in the future!
Mu Yinghua smiled slightly and said, "You have spent the most time with Muling, and your relationship is the deepest. Her relationship with Muling is at most just a transaction, which can't be compared."
Luo Huan muttered softly, "I'm afraid that our junior martial brother will be bewitched by that foxy woman. Since she came prepared, how could she be willing to be just a tool? She must be finding a way to compete for favor!"
Yu Binghua smiled and said, "She can't compete with us for favor. After all, she is just one person."
But in her heart, she felt sorry for Qi Shuyu, Su Yunmo, and the other girls. With the arrival of Princess Long Yi, they didn't know how long they would have to wait. Just thinking about it was frustrating.
After another ten days, when Qin Muling successfully came out of seclusion, a large delegation from Dao Court also arrived at Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace.
To Mu Yinghua's surprise, Emperor Qing Huan personally led the team. She had originally thought that at most, Princess Long Yi would bring some attendants with her.
Such a high-level and prestigious visitor had rarely visited Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace in the past hundreds of thousands of years. Naturally, they couldn't be negligent and immediately put on the highest level of welcome ceremony, with the Sect Master and Emperor Xin Yu personally greeting them.
After the elaborate ceremony, there was a closed-door secret meeting between the two sides, and Qin Muling naturally had to accompany and participate.
Cloud Dream Heavenly Palace, on one side there is Emperor Xin Yu and Mu Yinghua, as well as the restored Emperor Feng Ge, along with Qin Muling herself, Yu Lingzhou, and Heavenly Monarch Yue Yi and Heavenly Monarch Bing Yuan; as for the other side, it is naturally Emperor Qing Huan and Princess Long Yi, along with Su Yuanzhen, who is the princess's attendant and currently at the peak of Golden Immortal cultivation.
"So, Princess, you have already reached the Golden Immortal realm? It seems a bit difficult now," Emperor Xin Yu pondered.
Mu Yinghua also felt a headache. Compared to the current Xue Bingxuan and the other women, Princess Long Yi was like a great white shark. Even if they joined forces, they might not be able to surpass her.
Princess Long Yi, dressed in a snowy palace gown and veiled, remained silent. Her eyes occasionally glanced at the handsome young man in purple clothes on the opposite side, his eyes clear and his demeanor like a dragon and phoenix, before quickly shifting her gaze away.
At this moment, she finally felt the heavy stone in her heart fall to the ground. The feeling of regret and frustration from missing out on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity had finally dissipated. As long as she wholeheartedly protected his growth, her own path would have the greatest guarantee.
Emperor Qing Huan smiled and said, "That's alright. Long Yi can wait! We can cultivate together after Mu Ling becomes an Origin Immortal in the future. For now, even if you become his protector, you can slowly cultivate your relationship."
"Then let's do it this way," Emperor Xin Yu knew that the other party would not make too many concessions on this matter of principle. Since they had come, was it possible to ask them to leave and wait? That was impossible.
"Alright, Mu Ling, come over and let this palace take a look, alright?" Emperor Qing Huan said softly, her bright eyes filled with eager anticipation.
A living being formed from the transformation of the Innate Hongmeng divine object, even in the era before the opening of heaven and earth, there were rarely any records of such beings. Now, they could observe it face to face. This was an opportunity that their past selves would not have dared to dream of.
Qin Muling hesitated for a moment, but seeing that her master and Emperor Xin Yu did not object, she nodded and got up from her seat, walking towards Emperor Qing Huan.
Suppressing her excited emotions, Emperor Qing Huan gently took Qin Muling's hand, and an immense power quietly surged.
In an instant, a brilliant radiance emanated from Qin Muling's body, and a boundless Primordial Violet Qi rose up, gathering above her head into a five-layered auspicious cloud. Within the resplendent radiance, countless golden lights, rainbow-colored palaces, and countless illusory galaxies were faintly visible. A mysterious and profound aura permeated the surroundings.
Even with their strong composure, Su Yuanzhen and Princess Long Yi couldn't help but be stunned, their eyes fixed on the auspicious phenomenon emanating from Qin Muling's body, their hearts filled with indescribable shock.
"Truly deserving of being the favored one blessed by Heaven's Mandate and Good Fortune Luck," Emperor Qing Huan sighed softly. "This destiny and fortune, even this palace is inferior. Given time, when you step into the Golden Immortal realm, won't you..."
She didn't continue speaking. Such a heaven-defying opportunity could no longer be measured in concrete benefits. All she could say was that whoever obtained him would have the hope of taking that step beyond the Myriad Tribulations, achieving the Supreme Primordial Saint Dao Fruit that was eternal and indestructible.
Princess Long Yi's eyes shimmered as she deeply observed Qin Muling. In the end, this young man would belong to her. As for his senior sisters, they were nothing more than a group of trash. What could they use to compete with her?
Apologies to all the readers, I accidentally fell asleep.
