Volume 1 The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 195 Return
"Fen Juechen is from the Burning Heaven Sect after all, and he is the son of the Sect Master. This time he will represent our Blue Wind Profound Palace, which will definitely cause controversy. Moreover, even if he really makes it into the top 100 this time, or even defeats Fen Juebi, no one will agree that this is a ranking that belongs to our Blue Wind Profound Palace and the royal family. Instead, it will lead to ridicule, and my father will never feel honored by it... What does Palace Master Qin think?" Cang Yue said calmly.
"Your Highness is right. It will indeed cause a lot of criticism and even ridicule," Qin Wushang nodded, but then said helplessly: "But the reason why Fen Juechen entered our Profound Palace is to wait for this Blue Wind ranking battle. He wants to defeat Fen Juebi in the ranking battle and avenge his previous shame. The Third Prince also specifically instructed this. In addition, he is now indeed a disciple of our palace. If we kick him out, I'm afraid..."
"In that case, let him do it. I will talk to my father." Cang Yue closed the list and said directly. The tone was casual and weak, as if he no longer cared about this list or even this year's Blue Wind Ranking Tournament.
Cangyue's reaction made Qin Wushang sigh again, and he bowed his head and said, "Everything is in accordance with what Her Royal Highness said. There are only three days left before the start of the ranking battle. How about we set off tomorrow morning? I wonder what time is more convenient for Her Royal Highness?"
"Me?" Cangyue shook her head and said sadly, "I forgot to inform Lord Qin earlier. I will not go to this year's Cangfeng ranking battle. Please ask Lord Qin and Lord Dongfang to lead the team."
"Ah? This..." Although Qin Wushang vaguely guessed this from Cangyue's reaction, he still felt a pang in his heart when he heard Princess Cangyue say it so indifferently, and his face was embarrassed: "But Your Highness, Lord Dongfang has always come and gone without a trace. Since the emperor became seriously ill, he rarely stayed in the palace. After traveling more than a year ago, no one has seen him since then, and the sound transmission talisman cannot contact him."
"Moreover, even if Lord Dongfang can come back in time, it is extremely inappropriate for Lord Dongfang and I to lead the team. The Cangfeng ranking battle is The highest level event of the Blue Wind Empire's strength competition, even the top ten sects that dominate the world, are at least led by the great elders, or even the sect master himself. In the past, our royal family has at least one prince or princess to lead the team, and sometimes the emperor will lead the team himself. If only the palace master leads the team this time, I am afraid that the world's sects will think that our royal family has a sense of contempt for the heroes of the world, especially the Tianjian Villa, which may also have a grudge. "
"The emperor is not in good health and is not in good health. Several princes are immersed in the struggle for power and are unwilling to get involved in this matter. Only Her Royal Highness can trouble you with this matter. Three years ago, although our royal family was only ranked 223rd, Her Royal Highness's demeanor was amazing, completely covering up the dismal results of the royal family. This time, please condescend to go, otherwise... I really don't know what to do. "
In the past few Blue Wind ranking battles, the Blue Wind Emperor Cang Wanhe personally supervised the selection, made decisions, and even led the team himself many times. Now Cang Wanhe is ill and unable to preside over the competition. Although the princes are fighting for power, they are not ignorant of the importance of the Cangfeng Qualifying Tournament within the empire. However, the royal family's performance has always been extremely bleak. They have always lost face when they went to Tianjian Villa, and no one is willing to take over. Therefore, Cangyue led the Cangfeng Qualifying Tournament three years ago.
This time, the situation is even simpler than three years ago. Qin Wushang can only count on Cangyue.
Yun Che's matter made Cangyue sad and exhausted, and even felt a sense of despair that she had never had before. She really didn't have the heart to care about the Cangfeng Qualifying Tournament. But Qin Wushang had said this, and Cangyue could no longer make any other choice. The face of the royal family cannot be ignored, and the maintenance of the relationship with Tianjian Villa cannot make any mistakes. She could only nod slightly, close her eyes and say: "I know... prepare the flying profound beast, and we will set off tomorrow at noon."
"Yes." Qin Wushang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
——————————————————
The next day, at 7:00 p.m., in the inner palace of Cangfeng Xuanfu.
It was already dawn, and the inner palace was quiet. Although it was still early, almost all the inner palace disciples had entered the Juxuan Tower. In the inner palace, the inner palace disciples usually get up and enter the Juxuan Tower before dawn, and some do not come out for several days and nights. Every second of cultivation in the Juxuan Tower is extremely precious, and they are unwilling to waste it. After leaving Cangfeng Xuanfu, it is basically impossible for them to enter it again.
In front of the Taixuan Palace, three giant snow sculptures were standing there majestically, emitting a faint chill from their bodies. At the speed of the giant snow sculptures, if they travel day and night, they can travel thousands of miles a day, and they can reach Tianjian Villa in two days at most. Next to the three giant snow sculptures, Qin Wushang was already waiting there. On his right hand side, there stood two young men who looked to be around 20 years old, wearing the clothes of inner palace disciples. The two looked ordinary, but their eyes were full of arrogance. When they looked at each other, they were obviously hostile.
These two people are Feng Bufan and Fang Feilong, who have occupied the second and third place in the Inner Palace Tianxuan Ranking for a long time. Although they are only twenty years old, they are admired and respected by all Xuanfu disciples. They are well-known figures and recognized top talents in the entire Cangfeng Imperial City. They are also the favorites of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince. They will definitely hold great power in the future. Having such achievements at such a young age is enough to make more than 99% of the young people in the Cangfeng Empire envious. Their arrogance also comes from this.
It's just that they belong to the prince's and third prince's camps respectively, so naturally they are incompatible with each other. Not only did the two people's eyes show hostility, but their words were also constantly mixed with cynicism.
At this time, Cang Yue finally came, without re-dressing, applying makeup, or bringing any followers, she came alone.
Qin Wushang stepped forward quickly: "Greetings to Your Highness the Princess. Princess, what are you doing...why are you here alone? Why don't you have anyone to protect you?"
Cang Yue smiled reluctantly and shook her head slightly: "No need. There are only a few people at Tianjian Villa, and with Palace Master Qin by his side, it is better than thousands of followers... These two are Feng Bufan and Fang Is it a flying dragon?"
Feng Bufan and Fang Feilong also stepped forward to pay their respects to Princess Cang Yue. However, although they were respectful, they did not have the fear and excitement that common people would have in front of the princess. Following the crown prince and the third prince, they knew very well how little weight Princess Cang Yue held in the royal family battle. She has no power, and only has the noble status of a princess. Perhaps the only thing she can rely on is the little power left by the current emperor-including the Blue Wind Profound Palace. When the emperor passes away and the dispute between the crown prince and the third prince comes to an end, the fate of Princess Cang Yue will also be determined. Speaking of which, even if she is not favored by Fen Juecheng of Fentian Clan, Cang Lin or Cang Shuo, whoever rises to power in the future, will definitely treat her as some kind of bargaining chip for profit.
"Where is Fen Juechen?" Cang Yue looked around and asked.
Qin Wushang shook his head and said helplessly: "Yesterday we told Fen Juechen to wait here at Chenshi. But we have been waiting for half an hour, but we still haven't seen him. Fen Juechen is arrogant and never bothers to wait. Maybe. We have to wait until the end of the day to come. Other than that, everything is ready, so please rest assured.”
"Palace Master Qin has personally arranged everything, so I can rest assured." Cang Yue said calmly: "In that case, let's just wait here for a while. If Fen Juechen still hasn't come after Chen hour, there is no need to wait. "
Cang Yue was not willing to let Fen Juechen participate in the ranking competition on behalf of their royal family, so she naturally didn't have much patience with him.
"Yes." Qin Wushang respectfully agreed. However, he was sure that Fen Juechen would arrive within a few hours. Because he was training hard day and night in the Xuan Palace, just to defeat Fen Juebi in the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament and avenge his previous humiliation. In the year leading up to the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament, the intensity of his training in the Xuan Gathering Pagoda had reached an almost cruel level, and he worked hard every day to improve his Xuan Li Xuan Gong like a madman. And it only took him a little more than a year to go from the first level of the Lingxuan Realm, directly across four levels, to the current fifth level of the Lingxuan Realm... Such crazy progress made Qin Wushang feel... A feeling of fear. These also convinced him that in terms of talent, Fen Juechen was no less talented than Fen Juebi, and even far better! If he were the same age as Fen Juebi, Fen Juebi would not be Fen Juechen's opponent.
While they were talking, a figure appeared in the direction of the entrance to the inner palace and walked towards this side unhurriedly.
"Oh, Fen Juechen should be here." The figure in the distance made Qin Wushang slightly shaken, and he said to Princess Cang Yue. But immediately, he frowned again, with deep surprise on his face.
The figure was getting closer and closer, gradually becoming clearer in their sight. This is a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old. He is dressed in simple white clothes, stained with dust and dew. He looks like he has been bathing in the night wind and dew all night. There was no outward aura about him at all - at least not as arrogant as Fen Juechen. His face was handsome and white, and he didn't have the aura of domineering Xuanzhe at all. He looked more like a milk boy.
This person is not Fen Juechen.
It was Yun Che who rushed back under the stars and the moon!
It took Yun Che a full eleven days to get from the center of the Death Wasteland to escape from the Death Wasteland. These eleven days, for Yun Che, can be described as terrifying every step of the way. Especially in the area of the Sky Mysterious Beast and the Earth Mysterious Beast, every step he takes is extremely cautious and difficult. He also experienced no less than a hundred fatal crises, but he avoided and escaped them all. In this way, in eleven days, with his strength at the True Profound Realm, he successfully crossed the wasteland of death that even half of the powerful Sky Profound Realm experts found difficult to cross safely. Then he traveled day and night, and six days later, he finally returned to Blue Wind Profound Palace this morning.
After returning to Blue Wind Profound Palace, the first person he met was Qin Wuyou... When Qin Wuyou saw him, his expression was as if he had seen a ghost alive in broad daylight. Only then did he understand that he had entered the wasteland of death. It was unknown when the news spread, and everyone thought he had died in the wasteland of death.
Then, he heard from Qin Wuyou that the team going to Tianjian Villa to participate in the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament had gathered in front of the Taixuan Palace in the inner palace and was about to set off. He immediately left Qin Wuyou behind and headed as quickly as possible. Came over.
As soon as they arrived, they saw Qin Wushang and Cang Yue with dull expressions.
"Palace Master Qin, Senior Sister, long time no see...I'm back." Yun Che stood in front of them and said with a smile.
