Moon Emperor

Chapter 398 The layout after many years
During the information exchange session, Xing Ming was not unfamiliar at all. After briefly introducing himself, he greeted the envoys one by one and asked many questions and doubts.

Since Xing Ming said that he was "brought here" by the Immortal Lord, and the Immortal Lord acquiesced, most of his questions were answered.

During this period, Qilonghuang also joined in the exchanges between the envoys. Most of what she was interested in was the content of every regular meeting in the past.

Because several important pieces of information to be reported to the Immortal Lord had been discussed by the envoys before, this exchange was rather like a "welcome party" between the old and new envoys.

When the exchange was almost over, Gou Chen remembered an interesting incident, "Recently, I heard my wife tell some rumors about the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea."

"Don't the Dragon King of the East China Sea have a little daughter? She is the little princess ranked No. 16. It is said that she had a relationship with the famous banished immortal Su Yan."

When everyone heard that this matter involved the Immortal Lord, they all turned their attention; especially Qilonghuang, who glanced at Su Yan intentionally or unintentionally, her eyes seemed to say: Why is there another one?Didn't you confess to me last time?
Su Yan was speechless. He wanted to hold his forehead, but in order to maintain the image of an immortal master, he had to pretend to close his eyes and take a nap.

"It is said that this dragon princess admired Immortal Su's ability very much. She once tried to become a disciple of Immortal Su and asked him to accept her as his disciple, but unfortunately she failed."

"However, Immortal Su seemed to have a very gentle attitude toward the Dragon Princess at that time, so she never gave up the idea of ​​becoming a disciple. She just suffered from the fact that the immortal's whereabouts were erratic and difficult to find."

"Recently, Immortal Su has settled in Qingcheng Palace for a period of time, and has also become a Taoist couple with Master Yuzhen, so Princess Long started to make noises about going to Qingcheng Mountain to become a disciple."

"After the Dragon King and Dragon Mother of the East China Sea learned about it, they were worried that their little daughter would cause trouble if she went out, which would make Su Xianren feel bad about the Dragon Palace, so they banned her and refused to let her go out."

"After months of going back and forth like this, the Dragon Princess sneaked out of the East China Sea Dragon Palace. It is said that she is now on her way to Qingcheng Mountain and vowed to succeed in her apprenticeship this time."

The envoys were a little surprised when they heard this, and looked at the Immortal Lord at the top.

The Immortal Master neither admitted nor denied it, as if he didn't hear it.

Qilonghuang was a little apologetic, wrongly blaming her own man. As soon as she heard that a woman had a relationship with him, she automatically thought of that direction.

But White Tiger is very concerned about this matter. The Immortal Lord should have never had any apprentices since he descended to earth. If he is really willing to accept the Dragon Girl as his apprentice, doesn't it mean that he does treat both humans and demons equally?
I don’t know if the Immortal Master is still in Qingcheng Palace now, or whether the Dragon Girl can succeed in becoming a disciple.
At this moment, Xing Ming chuckled and said: "It's just acting. I guess the Dragon King of East China Sea also hopes that his daughter can successfully become a disciple so that he can have a relationship with our Immortal Lord, but he can't say it in front of everyone in case he is rejected. How embarrassing?”

"With such a pull, in the eyes of the outside world, it is the Dragon King's youngest daughter who insists on going her own way and refuses to listen to dissuasion."

"If Dragon Girl can really succeed in becoming a disciple, everyone will be happy; if the apprenticeship fails, it is just a child who is ignorant, and no one will think that Donghai Dragon Palace has lost face because of this."

"And I estimate that there should be someone secretly protecting the Dragon Girl on her way to Qingcheng Palace. The Dragon King would not be so big-hearted as to let his daughter go on the journey alone."

The other envoys mostly agreed when they heard this. After all, the restrictions inside and outside the Dragon Palace were so strict. The Dragon Princess would never be able to escape on her own without help.

"Help me handle this matter and send her back." Su Yan just ordered calmly without opening her eyes.

Xing Ming clasped his fists and agreed.

Bai Hu felt a little regretful when he heard this. Did he not plan to accept a disciple?Or do you simply dislike this stalking dragon girl?

The focus of others is that the Immortal Master actually asked the new Snake Inspector to handle this matter?Could he be considered one of the Immortal Lord's confidants?

Of course, there are also people who speculate that perhaps Tang She is currently near Qingcheng Palace, and asking him to go there is just a matter of proximity. There are even bolder guesses in this direction, maybe Tang She is a monk from Qingcheng Palace!

In short, although everyone has their own guesses, they have not spoken out, and this topic has come to an end for the time being.

Gou Chen, who had just spoken, took the initiative to look at Inspector Qinglong and said, "I want to apply to go to Yuantong Realm for a period of retreat. How about letting me go with Bai Hu as my partner this time?"

As he spoke, he joked: "By the way, I can be regarded as supervising and supervising Lao Jin."

Bai Hu snorted lightly but didn't say anything.

You Yue nodded slightly. Su Yan had given her full authority to handle the matter of applying to go to Yuantong Realm last time, so the envoys could just look for her.

"That's it for today." Su Yan opened his eyes. Everyone felt sorry for themselves and stood up to say goodbye and prepare to leave.

But at this moment, Su Yan specifically named Xuanwu, "Xuanwu stays."

At this time, everyone was a little surprised. Could it be that leaving Xuanwu alone had something to do with the matter of Immortal Xuan?
Of course, they didn't ask any more questions. What followed was obviously a private conversation, so the envoys disappeared one by one.

Seeing this, the noble hesitated for a moment. She also planned to talk to her nephew, but now it seemed that the other party was not available.

Su Yan took this scene into consideration, and secretly sent a message to the noble man: You can see me anytime you want, you don't have to wait until the regular meeting, just pray through the mask, I can hear you.

The noble man breathed a sigh of relief. After bowing again, she also disappeared into the hall.

But even so, there were still two envoys, Tianhou and Qinglong, who had not left the palace. This made Xuanwu, who was confused and worried, even more stressed. What on earth could he do if he was left alone?

Fortunately, right after, Qinglong bowed to the Immortal Lord and disappeared; the Queen of Heaven also stood up and walked into the back hall, and Xuanwu relaxed a little.

"Next I will go to Immortal Pavilion."

Xuanwu was stunned by the Immortal Master's first words. Is this person going to come to the Immortal Pavilion in person?But my growth progress should still be far from the Immortal Master’s expectations, right?

Could it be that the Immortal Master couldn't wait any longer, so he no longer counted on himself and was preparing to subdue Immortal Xuan himself?

This made Xuanwu feel a little ashamed, and even resented that he occasionally rubbed elbows with his senior sister instead of devoting all his time to cultivation.

Su Yan naturally didn't know how outrageous this kid's idea was. His idea was very simple:
If he goes to visit Immortal Hall himself, the Master of Immortal Hall should not dare to attack him directly.

After all, Su Yan is well-known now, and Immortal Xuan's technique does not require the reincarnation of immortals or bodhisattvas. As long as there is no conflict of interest between the two parties, he comes to visit openly and openly, and even gets the treatment of sitting down and drinking tea.

If things go smoothly, if Su Yan directly says that he wants to see the half of the immortal corpse with his own eyes, Master Immortal Xuanxuan may not refuse.

But among the Twelve Patrol Envoys, isn't there a disciple of Immortal Xuan?Su Yan thought about telling Xuanwu first. If something unexpected happened and the two sides really started fighting, Xuanwu would at least not look confused and might be able to help.Moreover, if he went directly without saying a word, Xuanwu might be suspected by the people in his sect because of the sudden incident, which would expose his flaws.

Say hello in advance now, Xuanwu will be very calm then.

"You should still remember the half of the immortal corpse, right?" Su Yan asked directly.

Xuanwu was stunned for a moment, "Of course I remember, but in the following years, I had no chance to come into contact with that corpse; no one among the senior officials of Immortal Xuan that I could come into contact with mentioned it again."

"I plan to go over and take a look in person. You don't have to do anything then. Just pretend that you don't know what to do unless I take the initiative to give you instructions through the mask."

Xuanwu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately agreed, "I will obey the Immortal Lord's will."

Seeing that the Immortal Master had no other instructions, Xuanwu bowed again and disappeared directly.

Su Yan, who felt relaxed, immediately stood up and took off his mask, "Come out~"

"How's it going? We, Immortal Su, have finally got the jade that we have longed for. Doesn't it taste good?"

The graceful and graceful figure of Qilonghuang walked out of the back hall and teased with a smile.

Su Yan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He stepped forward and said, "See what you said." He hugged the beauty into his arms.

Qilonghuang leaned relaxedly on Su Yan's chest. Only at this time did she look like a little woman. She felt like she didn't need to think about anything and could just leave all her worries to others.

The two parties were affectionate for a while, and Su Yan picked up Qilonghuang in the way a princess would carry her, walked into the back hall, sat down beside the big rosewood bed, and told her what happened after returning to Qingcheng Palace.

Qilonghuang listened with great interest, but she was a little jealous when she heard the part where the two prayed to heaven and earth. She rarely said coquettishly to Su Yan: "I want it too."

Su Yan suddenly had a headache. Why do all the women want it?So does Su Wen, and so do you.
Of course, Su Yan also knows that this cannot be blamed on others, it is all his own fault. As long as you can be more focused, there is no need to have a headache now?

Seeing the troubled look on Su Yan's face, Qilonghuang couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Okay, okay, just kidding you, if we really announced that we were Taoist couples in public, then many forces would probably be wary of it. Even Qingcheng Palace will be dragged into the water by us."

Su Yan thought for a while, "Actually, it's not completely impossible, it's just that it can't be achieved in the short term; if you believe me, you can wait patiently."

Qilonghuang pretended to be serious and nodded, "I hope I can wait until I die of old age."

"It won't be that long, I swear." Su Yan raised his right hand and pointed it at the sword, with a serious expression.

But Qilonghuang held his hand and said, "Okay, okay, if we don't talk about this, what happens next?"

So Su Yan went on to talk about what happened next. In addition to mentioning Yan'er's guilty conscience, he also talked about the subsequent reunion with Su Wen.

"Hmph, what a bad woman, she actually wants to kill my man." Qilonghuang obviously didn't have a good impression of Su Wen, as Su Wen had always shown obvious hostility towards the empress.

Whether it was the "peeping" thing last time or the murderous intention against Su Yan this time, Qilonghuang became wary of this woman she had "never met".

Su Yan also told the real version of subduing the evil dragon from outside the territory. Qilonghuang was also very interested in hearing it. "You must show it to me when the time comes. I really like teasing smart little guys like this."

He is a little embarrassed. Do you think he is a puppy?Still want to ruin its "dog head"?

"Let's talk later."

After Su Yan finished telling his own experience, Qilonghuang took the initiative and said, "Let's get down to business. What is the true identity of Inspector Tanshe?"

"The real person Xing Ming of Qingcheng Palace."

Qilonghuang nodded thoughtfully, "In fact, in the past few years, there has been a mysterious outsider cultivation force that has been secretly contacting the Da Chu royal family, hoping to join this side."

"The reason is also very simple. Just say that I am the person [destined to belong to]. I hope it can help me achieve a career and eventually be supported by human luck."

"But because their origins are unknown, they are really suspicious, so I asked the people below to drag them away, neither agreeing nor rejecting them. In short, they must at least tell who the backers are and which sect they are. Otherwise, I would not dare to accept them on behalf of the royal family.”

"But this force doesn't seem to be in a hurry, and is just slowly consuming us."

"Now that I think about it, I think this sentence is very suspicious."

"The only question is, can he really cultivate a group of powerful practitioners behind Qingcheng Palace's back? Or is it that the person in charge of Qingcheng Palace himself knows about this and has given Xing Ming some support?"

Su Yan frowned slightly, remembering a past incident. After he and Xing Ming had a grudge, it was also the period when Yourong and he were on good terms.

In order to resolve the grudge between the two, Yourong told Su Yan about her life experience and how her master saved her as an orphan.

During this period, a very important piece of information was revealed: Xing Ming had traveled in the mortal world for many years, and had set up multiple rescue points in various places, taking in many orphans with spiritual talents.

Yourong was just the most talented among the original batch of orphans, so he was favored by Xing Ming and took him back to the mountain to become his disciple.

After so many years of development, if those orphans have embarked on the path of spiritual practice, they are now also a group of forces that cannot be ignored, just able to deal with the group of people who secretly contacted the Da Chu royal family.
Thinking of this, Su Yan asked: "Are most of the people you come into contact with young faces?"

Although the age of monks cannot be judged by their appearance, many monks still like to show their stable and mature side to others as they get older.

Qilonghuang nodded lightly, "According to the Meihua Internal Guard's description, although the leader is an old man, most of those who follow him are young monks; and they have a cold temperament and are taciturn. They look more like killers than monks."

"That should be correct. This guy Xing Ming has really been planning this matter since many years ago." Su Yan murmured to himself.
