Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 155: Two Invitation Letters

"Why are you avoiding this person?" Although he had already vaguely guessed the reason, Yun Che still asked with a deep eyebrow.

"In the last Cangfeng ranking match, Princess Cangyue came to watch the match in person. I don't need to elaborate on Princess Cangyue's appearance and demeanor. At that time, Princess Cangfeng was dressed in luxurious rosy clothes and wore a purple-gold phoenix crown. Although She is still young, but she is already stunning, and has fascinated countless talented young men from the sect, including Fen Juecheng."

"After the last Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, Fen Juecheng did not return to Fentianmen immediately. Instead, he came directly to Blue Wind Imperial City, met with the Emperor, and proposed to the Emperor to marry Princess Cang Yue... At that time, the Emperor did not He didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either. He just excused himself politely because Princess Cang Yue was still young. In fact, the emperor was already moved by that time. After all, Fen Juecheng was the young master of the Fentian Clan and would most likely succeed him as the master of the Fentian Clan in the future. If Princess Cangfeng marries him, she will be the future wife of the head of the Burning Heaven Clan. Her status will be even higher than that of the queen of the royal family. It is undoubtedly an excellent destination, and the dispute between the crown prince and the third prince will definitely not hurt her. For her, this will even provide the royal family with an additional layer of protection from the Burning Heaven Clan... After all, Princess Cang Yue is a daughter and married outside, so there is no need to worry about letting the Burning Heaven Clan's generals sneak into the royal family."

"Fen Juecheng also happily accepted the emperor's attitude and vowed to marry Princess Cang Yue in this life."

"But not long after that, the news that the third prince Cang Shuo borrowed the power of the Burning Heaven Clan reached the emperor's ears, making the emperor furious. The Burning Heaven Clan would be willing to 'assist' the third prince Cang Shuo. On the one hand, it was a threat to the world's political power. Ambition, on the other hand, was also one of the important reasons for Fen Juecheng's infatuation with Princess Cang Yue, because after that, the third prince was extremely kind to Princess Cang Yue. Every time he saw Princess Cang Yue, he tried his best to persuade her to marry her. By giving Fen Juecheng, he could enjoy a lifetime of glory and respect, and his status would be far superior to that of the royal princess. Fen Juecheng often entered and exited the palace for various reasons, and met Princess Cang Yue under the arrangement of the third prince Cang Shuo. Show your kindness and express your feelings to her.”

Yun Che's chest rose and fell slightly, but he remained silent.

"The Burning Heaven Clan is so powerful that the royal family does not dare to offend. The emperor is seriously ill and the royal family is in turmoil. Princess Cang Yue also does not dare to offend Fen Juecheng. She can only evade but does not dare to refuse. Because she is aware of Fen Juecheng's character. , looks gentle and elegant, but in reality has a very deep character. She will always use any means to achieve her goals, and some of her secret actions are even crueler and outrageous. If her strong refusal makes Fen Juecheng lose all his patience, There is no telling what he will do.”

"So, in order to get rid of Fen Juecheng's entanglement, and to satisfy her father's regret, she left the imperial city and traveled around the various profound palaces in the empire..." Yun Che said slowly, his expression was calm, and he was thinking in his heart. What, only he himself knows.

"That's right." Qin Wuyou nodded and said dullly: "Yun Che, I don't know what you think after hearing what I said. I have lived in the imperial city since I was a child, and I have often seen Princess Cang Yue when she was very young. To her, she was like a carefree angel at that time. After the death of her mother-in-law, she had to bear more and more things, becoming heavier and heavier, almost all the relaxation and happiness. They all left her. You can't imagine how sad, painful and tired she is. You and Princess Cang Yue are so close now, enjoying her beauty, elegance and nobility, and her sincere concern for you. And careful care... When she chose you, it was indeed just to fulfill her father's wish, and she had something that could be called an 'intention' towards you, but now, I can see that she has real feelings for you. , otherwise, she would not even send you things like the Sound Transmission Jade in person. You enjoy everything she gives you, but have you ever thought about shouldering the burdens on her shoulders and heart for her. ...Or do you have such sincerity, courage and awareness?"

Yun Che did not answer.

"As I said before, if you don't have such courage and awareness, just take the initiative to distance yourself from Princess Cang Yue. The identity gap between you is as big as a world, and if others know that you two have feelings for each other, Fen Juecheng alone is enough for you to die quietly without a burial place. Although your alienation from her will make her sad, but I hope you make such a choice, for her good and for yours. Good to you. I understand your personality to some extent. With your self-esteem, I believe it is almost impossible for you to make such a choice. Even if you grit your teeth, you will not back down... But you are too small now. You can't help Princess Cang Yue, you can't share anything with her, but it gives her an extra layer of emotional concern. If you risk huge risks to support this relationship, it may be called courage, but it is definitely not brave... …For you to alienate Princess Cang Yue, in my eyes, you are truly brave and sincere.”

Yun Che: "..."

Qin Wuyou turned around, patted Yun Che's shoulder, and said, "I have already said what needs to be said. You should think about it yourself. Princess Cang Yue has never dared to tell you her identity. , and she is also afraid that you will be involved... On the other hand, it is not because you are too small. If you are really strong enough, I believe she has told you everything about her. What she needs most is a shoulder to rely on. But you... at least now, at least within ten years, you can't give her such a shoulder at all. Instead, to a certain extent, you will become a drag and another spiritual barrier for her. "

"I've put the Golden Scale Dragon Pill on the table. If you successfully refine it, it will be enough to directly raise your profound strength to the third level of the True Profound Realm... In short, think about it carefully."

Qin Wuyou left with heavy steps. Yun Che did not see him off, but stood there for a long time in a daze.

Qin Wuyou's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Yun Che's heart fiercely.

He believed that Lan Xueruo must have a prominent status before, but he was also completely confident that he was worthy of her now... Or maybe, he was arrogant and never thought that there would be someone he was not worthy of. But now, he was shocked to know that Lan Xueruo was actually the legendary Princess Cang Yue, and she was also involved in the turmoil of the Cangfeng royal family, and behind her, there was a huge pressure from the Burning Heaven Sect...

He defeated the inner court disciples above his level, which was indeed impressive, and he was also complacent. But. This kind of prestige was limited to the Cangfeng Profound Court, and only limited to the young generation under the age of twenty. In the circle that Lan Xueruo was involved in, his strength was so insignificant that it was not worth mentioning.

Qin Wuyou's words were right. Lan Xueruo needed a shoulder to lean on, but such a shoulder, as insignificant as he was, could not be given at all, and would only become a spiritual hindrance.

Qin Wuyou's other words were even more correct... He enjoyed Lan Xueruo's beauty and gentleness, enjoyed her constant care and care, and even enjoyed the sense of conquest of capturing her heart bit by bit, but never really shared anything with her.

"This is a world where strength is respected. Without sufficient strength, you are not qualified to talk about dignity, and you have no ability to protect the people you want to protect... Grandpa and my aunt are waiting for me to go back. I have no ability to share what Xueruo is carrying... I just defeated a small True Profound Level 9, but I am arrogant and complacent here. It's really ridiculous... ridiculous."

Yun Che slowly clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and his body trembled slightly. After a long time, he took a long breath, picked up the Golden Scale Dragon Pill that Qin Wuyou had put down on the table, and threw it directly into his mouth with a fixed gaze.

The Golden Scale Dragon Pill entered his body, and Yun Che immediately felt a stream of vigorous air flowing out from his chest and abdomen to the surroundings, flowing to the blood vessels and meridians throughout the body, and a part of it directly flowed to the head, making him dizzy.

Such a strong medicinal power...

Yun Che was slightly surprised, and he immediately sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, concentrated his mind and calmed his breath, and started to practice the Great Dao Fu Tu Jue. The Great Dao Fu Tu Jue was such a high-level profound skill, but in just four or five breaths, the heat flowing through his body gradually subsided, and the unruly medicinal power became warm and peaceful. Without any guidance, it gradually integrated into the whole body, and the profound energy in the profound veins began to roll and slowly expand...

Sunset and sunrise.

Yun Che entered this state of concentration, and a day and a night passed quietly. When he completely absorbed the medicinal power of the Golden Scale Dragon Pill and opened his eyes, it was already noon the next day. The fluctuations of the profound energy in the profound veins have completely settled down, becoming more vigorous than yesterday... Three hours ago, he had successfully upgraded to the third level of the True Profound Realm.

Using pills to upgrade, although not very stable, is undoubtedly the fastest. But pills like the Golden Scale Dragon Pill, which have extremely amazing effects, are rare in the world and hard to find, and because the medicinal properties are too strong, there are certain risks if swallowed.

After sitting for a day and a night, with injuries on his body, Yun Che was already hungry. He was just about to go out, and the door was pushed open by the forgetful Qin Wuyou.

"Teacher Qin." Yun Che immediately went to meet him, and then found that Qin Wuyou's face was not good, and immediately asked: "What happened?"

"It's expected." Qin Wuyou sighed, and then took out two letters: "These are two invitations. One is from the crown prince Canglin, inviting you to attend his 33rd birthday banquet at noon in the crown prince's mansion ten days later. The other is from the third prince Cangshuo, inviting you to attend the beast fighting competition supervised by him personally, the time... is also noon ten days later."

[PS1: Every time I check the reply, I often find that 'Yun Che' is typed as 'Ling Chen' (this is a new book syndrome...). Although it will basically be checked, it cannot be guaranteed that there will be no fish that slip through the net. So if you find the word 'Ling Chen' appears on a certain day, please refresh the book review forum WeChat Weibo! ]
