With the royal family's vast hands and eyes, is there anything that needs his help?
"The emperor said that once I wait for you to come back, you'd better go to the palace today."
Chang Yuanzhen looked solemn and said.
Obviously, this matter is very urgent.
"But Ning'er..."
Compared to the royal family's request for help, Ye Qingchen was more concerned about Ning'er's condition.
"Don't worry, I just checked carefully. Although she was injured, her vital points and martial arts foundation were not damaged."
Chen Feng said softly: "With the abilities of the doctors at Cangming Jiange, I can completely cure her injuries."
"In addition, I will ask Chang Yuanzhen and Mei Xingkun to stay by her side for twelve hours and will not let her encounter any danger."
"As for me, I will accompany you to the palace."
Ye Qingchen is now a priceless treasure to Cangming Jiange.
Chen Feng naturally wanted to protect Ye Qingchen.
"... Then I'll trouble the two elders."
Even Chen Feng said so, so Ye Qingchen had no choice but to agree.
"Don't worry, kid," Mei Xingkun patted her chest, "As long as I'm here, I will never let her lose even a hair!"
Chang Yuanzhen also nodded.
Seeing this, Ye Qingchen finally felt relieved and bowed heavily to the two elders, then was led by Chen Feng to fly towards the royal family.
Royal Palace.
In the main hall, Yan Guiyun was sitting on the dragon chair, closing his eyes and meditating.
At this time, a shout came from outside: "The master of Cangming Sword Pavilion and Mr. Ye are here!"
Yan Guiyun immediately opened his eyes and said: "Let them come in."
Then Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng appeared in front of Yan Guiyun.
"Meet the Emperor."
Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng bowed.
Yan Guiyun smiled and said: "Quickly invite... someone! Please take your seats!"
When Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng took their seats, Yan Guiyun first looked at Ye Qingchen and asked:
"I just received information that Ning Suyan was being chased by Wu Muqing in the Beast Heart Mountains. Is this possible?"
"It is true, but Wu Muqing has been killed by my sword."
Ye Qingchen's answer made Yan Guiyun's expression change with a look of shock.
He actually killed Wu Muqing, who had a level two cultivation level in the Mysterious Hidden Realm?!
After he finished digesting this incredible news, he heard Ye Qingchen continue:
"Thanks also to the spies the emperor sent beside her."
"Without them, I'm afraid that by the time I arrive, she will have become a hostage in Qingyun Taoist Palace."
Ye Qingchen's tone was full of gratitude: "I would also like to ask the emperor to express condolences to their families on my behalf and express my sincere thanks."
"It's natural."
Yan Guiyun nodded, and immediately noticed the important point: "But you just said that the hostages in Qingyun Taoist Palace... what is going on?"
He clearly remembered that Wu Muqing was a privileged elder of Tianji Sect.
Ye Qingchen immediately told everything that had happened before.
When Ye Qingchen finished speaking, Chen Feng said in a low voice: "So Wu Muqing is actually a chess piece planted by Qingyun Taoist Palace in Tianji Sect!"
"The purpose is to win over Tianji Sect to their side!"
"And He Mingqian, the leader of the Tianji Sect, has successfully defected to Qingyun Dao Palace!"
Hearing this, Yan Guiyun's face suddenly darkened.
"What a Wei Lingfeng... he is so thoughtful!"
Yan Guiyun said coldly: "I clearly remember that Wu Muqing became a privileged elder of Tianji Sect five years ago."
"That is enough to show that he planned this situation as early as five years ago!"
"Moreover, the reason why Wu Muqing was able to plunder the special physiques and abilities of those past disciples was probably because of Wei Lingfeng's work!"
"Once Wu Muqing reaches the tenth level of the Mysterious Hidden Realm, and even allows her to break through the Dharma... that will definitely be another trump card of Qingyun Dao Palace!"
Yan Guiyun's words made Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng couldn't help but nod in approval.
I have to say that Wei Lingfeng's scheming... is really unfathomable!
"Now that Qingyun Dao Palace is acting in such a high-profile manner, doesn't the emperor still plan to take action?"
Ye Qingchen asked aloud.
He really didn't understand that even if the royal family was afraid of losing the presence of the king, if the Qingyun Dao Palace was not cleared away as soon as possible, many variables would be more likely to occur in the upcoming war!
It is undoubtedly safer to kill Wei Lingfeng who has not yet broken through the realm than to contend with Wei Lingfeng who has broken through the realm!
"Oh, it's just that I was too indecisive, so now, even though I have a reason to take action, I have no chance."
Yan Guiyun let out a long sigh and said: "The king and prime minister of our royal family is currently trying his best to alleviate the impending end, and is no longer able to annihilate Qingyun Taoist Palace."
"?!"
Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng looked shocked.
If the king doesn't take action, what will they do to counter Qingyun Taoist Palace?!
"Is this why the emperor wants me to help?"
Ye Qingchen asked aloud.
But when it comes to a king's prime minister's deadline, what can he do with his small star-gathering realm?
"Yes, that's exactly it."
Yan Guiyun said in a low tone: "And only you can help us with this matter."
Ye Qingchen was startled.
Then Yan Guiyun spoke again and said: "Four hundred miles away from Anyun City, the border city of Yanyun Kingdom, there is an ancient ruins called Jishou Valley."
"There grows a life-extending fairy grass that only appears once every hundred years."
Yan Guiyun said slowly: "It can help the king to extend his life to a certain extent!"
Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.
"And the reason I'm calling you here this time is to ask you to help me fetch the longevity grass!"
Yan Guiyun's eyes were locked on Ye Qingcheng, his eyes filled with hope.
Ye Qingchen pondered slightly and said:
"But... may I ask, Your Majesty, there are many talented people in the royal family, and there must be many who are better than me... Why do you want me to go?"
As if he had known for a long time that Ye Qingchen would ask such questions, Yan Guiyun was not surprised and explained aloud:
"There is a special power spreading in the Life Extension Valley, which will forcibly suppress a person's cultivation level to the Star Gathering Realm level."
"And at the Star Gathering Realm level, in the entire Yanyun Kingdom, besides you, is there anyone else who is more suitable than you?"
Hearing this, Ye Qingchen stopped asking questions and frowned, thinking about something.
"He will definitely encounter many enemies when he goes to Jishou Valley this time, right?"
Chen Feng asked aloud.
"Well, according to the information we have learned, both Cangyan Kingdom and Xuanguang Kingdom will send people there."
Yan Guiyun nodded and said seriously: "Cangyan Kingdom and Xuanguang Kingdom are different from our Yanyun Kingdom. These two kingdoms have a system of establishing clans as royal families."
"Their country is a sect that rules a country. The royal family over there is just a puppet of that sect."
"The ruling sect of the Cangyan Kingdom is the Cangyan Alliance, and the ruling sect of the Xuanguang Kingdom is the Xuanguang Society."
"Although these two major sects have never produced a king, their number of tenth-level hermit masters is far greater than any of the four major sects!"
"If we didn't have a king and prime minister sitting here, they would have launched a war long ago to occupy our territory and divide it up!"
Speaking of this, Yan Guiyun's face showed a look of rage.
He looked at Ye Qingchen and said, "I know it's unreasonable to ask you to help me for nothing."
"Let's do this. If you can bring back the longevity grass, I will marry the green bamboo to you!"
Yan Guiyun smiled and said: "This is my most beloved daughter. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also very considerate. She is a good wife."
"How about it? Do you want to think about it?"
Ye Qingchen: "..."
Chen Feng: "..."
None of them expected that Yan Guiyun would be so fierce that he would marry off his most beloved daughter!
However, Chen Feng could tell at a glance that Yan Guiyun wanted to bind Ye Qingchen to the royal family.
In other words, he took a fancy to Ye Qingchen's potential!
He also believes that Ye Qingchen will become a king in the future!
Once Ye Qingchen becomes king in the future, the royal family will naturally be protected by him!
Obviously, Yan Guiyun is also scheming.
"Ahem...that's not necessary."
Ye Qingchen coughed a few times, and then said seriously: "As a native of Yanyun, I will do my best for this matter."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will leave immediately to go to Jishou Valley to seize the longevity fairy grass!"
Yan Guiyun was overjoyed to receive Ye Qingchen's agreement:
"Okay! I will also send someone to help you!"
After saying that, he clapped his hands, looked inside the hall, and said with a smile:
"You can come out now!"
Ye Qingchen looked curiously.
When he saw that red shadow, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
The person who appeared in front of him was none other than Princess Cuizhu, whom Yan Guiyun had tried so hard to "sell" to him!
"Cui Zhu has met Master Chen Pavilion and Mr. Ye."
Princess Cuizhu bowed and bowed with thoughtful etiquette.
Ye Qingchen and Chen Feng quickly returned the gift.
"Hahaha, are you satisfied with the helper I found for you?"
Yan Guiyun smiled and said, "Don't think I'm joking."
"Actually, Cuizhu and her sister once went on an expedition with the army, killing hundreds of enemies. They are extremely experienced in battles, and their cultivation has reached the peak of the tenth level of the Star Gathering Realm!"
"Regarding the importance of this matter, after much thought, I think it would be most appropriate for her to accompany you."
"But Your Majesty, is this really..."
Ye Qingchen was about to say something, but when he saw the slightly expectant look in Princess Cuizhu's eyes, he swallowed the words as soon as they came to his lips.
"I knew it was such a big deal, so I shouldn't have sent her there."
Yan Guiyun smiled slightly and fixed his firm gaze on Ye Qingchen: "But I am willing to believe you!"
"It is precisely because I trust you that I can trust you with my daughter!"
"I hope you and Cuizhu can work together to bring back the life-extending fairy grass!"
