Chapter 503 Princess, I Like You! 7,000 Words (1/2)

The layout of Yunzhou is different from any place Mu Zhian has seen before, and this palace is a force suspended above the clouds.

Mu Zhian walked in the quiet palace garden, glanced around, and found that there were many patrolling servants nearby.

Most of the servants were at the Qi training realm, and a few leaders were at the spirit training realm.

Mu Zhian tried to scan the surroundings with his spiritual sense, then concealed his own breath, climbed over the wall to the other side of the palace wall, and saw the Princess of Yunzhou who had been waiting for him in the courtyard of the front hall.

The woman was wearing a carefully tailored silver-white dress, a plain silk scarf with gorgeous cloud patterns, and a gorgeous dress that set off her delicate and moving face, like a plump and bright peony.

She seemed to have noticed Mu Zhian's sight and looked up instantly.

Mu Zhian came back to his senses, coughed lightly, and said: "Your Highness, everyone is drinking at the banquet today... It's such an important occasion, but you wrote to me. Is there something important?"

The princess stared into Mu Zhian's eyes and whispered: "Today's banquet is just the Emperor Dapeng's banquet for all the ministers, and by the way, he took this opportunity to try to make peace with you... You have already attended it, even if you leave early, the Emperor Dapeng will not say anything."

Mu Zhian hesitated: "Such an important occasion, I am chatting with you privately in the side hall... Is it really okay?"

"I set up a formation in front of the side hall, Mr. Mu, don't worry." The princess spoke softly, raised her hand and slightly gestured to the seat opposite her.

Looking at the boy sitting reservedly on the chair, the princess couldn't help but have a little more approval in her eyes.

It must be said that although there have been some offensive actions before, in most cases, the princess felt that this person was still very polite.

At least he knew that the Emperor Dapeng was holding a banquet at the moment, and it was not appropriate to meet her here.

She knew it, too.

But she couldn't wait until the banquet was over to be alone with Mu Zhian.

Mu Zhian nodded slightly and smiled, "Then I'm relieved."

Speaking of which, on the night of the Dapeng Emperor's banquet, Dapeng Emperor's fiancée had a private conversation with another man in the side hall... Although it was known that the princess must have something important to discuss with him, it was still hard not to imagine it.

"Mr. Mu, do you remember what we talked about when I took you to the sea of ​​clouds today?"

The princess spoke softly, her beautiful eyes staring at Mu Zhian, and she took the lead in bringing up this topic.

Mu Zhian pondered for a moment: "Your Highness Princess talked to me about a lot of things today. I wonder what you are referring to?"

"Natural furnace."

The princess' voice was gentle and pleasant: "In my experience, Master Mu is the first male natural furnace I have ever seen... and he is also the first cultivator whose natural furnace contains the spiritual energy of the heavenly court."

"It's just that I don't understand some things about this matter. I wonder if you can ask Master Mu to clear my confusion for me?"

"Princess, please tell me, I will try my best to answer." Mu Zhian answered very sincerely.

It's not because he covets the other person's body or something. Mu Zhian has always felt that he is a reserved and polite good man, and naturally has no interest in other people's wives.

It's just that the other party is trying his best to help him find Yunyanliu, and has stood by him many times in front of Dapeng Emperor. This alone makes Mu Zhian feel a little good about him.

"I only have one question..."

"Where does Mr. Mu's Heavenly Spiritual Energy come from when he gives it to others?"

This is the question she cares about most so far, and the one she wants to know the most.

So after she opened her mouth, the princess stared at Mu Zhian's eyes, wanting to get the answer from him.

However, after a moment of silence, Mu Zhian never spoke.

The princess' eyes dimmed, and then she soon showed a gentle smile again: "Sorry... I'm too abrupt, if it's inconvenient to answer, forget it."

"It's not that I can't answer, but before that, I also want to ask you a question." Mu Zhian said.

The princess nodded slightly: "Mr. Mu, please speak."

"From what you said just now, it seems that you care a lot about the affairs of the Heavenly Court. But it is rumored that Your Highness resonates with the Great Dao and believes in the power of the Great Dao, right?"

Mu Zhian was puzzled: "Where does the spiritual energy in the natural furnace come from? What does it mean to you?"

The princess did not answer, but her expression was a little complicated, and her red lips opened slightly, as if it was difficult to speak.

Seeing this, Mu Zhian said at the right time: "Since Your Highness has not made up her mind, then I will take my leave today."

"After all, this is the palace, and there are many people and eyes. If you see Your Highness and I alone in this place during the banquet, I am afraid it will cause unnecessary misunderstandings..."

Mu Zhian stood up and prepared to leave. At this time, the princess suddenly reached out and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"Wait!"

Mu Zhian stood still.

The princess raised her head, as if she had made up her mind, and said: "This matter involves a secret of Yunzhou, so Master Mu must promise not to disclose it to a third person."

What secret is so serious... Mu Zhian nodded slightly: "Please tell me, Your Highness."

The princess seemed to have a little more sorrow between her eyebrows, and said softly: "I told you today that in my understanding, Yunzhou is closest to the Heavenly Court instead of the Heavenly Dao, right?"

"Do you know why I think so?"

She slowly stood up and walked to the front door of the side hall, looking up at the dark sky: "Mr. Mu can try to absorb the spiritual energy here."

Mu Zhian was a little doubtful, closed his eyes slightly, and tried to absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth into the furnace. After running a small cycle, he successfully absorbed the spiritual energy into the furnace.

It seems that there is nothing special about it——

When Mu Zhian just thought of this, his thoughts suddenly stopped.

He suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the princess in disbelief.

He saw this peerless beauty with a bit of sarcasm in her eyes at this moment, and said quietly: "You guessed right, everything in Yunzhou is being eroded by the Heavenly Dao, and even the spiritual energy of Yunzhou is directly supplied from the Heavenly Dao."

"Somewhat wonderful... The spiritual energy in Yunzhou is different from anywhere in Jiuzhou. There seems to be a trace of the 'traces' left by the Heavenly Dao in the spiritual energy here." Mu Zhian said.

"Before I merged with the Dao, the spiritual energy in Yunzhou was different from now, but now the spiritual energy of the Dao is almost covering the entire Yunzhou."

The princess said: "If Yunzhou is really the place closest to the 'Dao of Heaven', why would the Dao of Heaven erode Yunzhou?"

The purpose of eroding Yunzhou is to make the local cultivators believe in the Dao of Heaven, but the purpose of doing so is unknown.

Mu Zhian was silent for a moment and asked: "So what do you say have to do with the Tiansheng furnace?"

He couldn't actively use the spiritual energy of the Tiansheng furnace, so he could only give it 'passively'. Even if he knew that the Dao of Heaven was eroding Yunzhou, it seemed that there was nothing he could do.

The princess shook her head slowly: "I just thought, if you get it back from the Heavenly Palace every time you lose your spiritual energy... then maybe you can find the location of the Heavenly Palace in this way."

"What exactly does Your Highness want to do in the Heavenly Palace? To ascend to heaven, or... do you have other purposes?" Mu Zhian asked.

"The rules of heaven and earth do not allow the great masters of the Hedao to ascend to heaven, and I have no such idea for the time being."

The princess said softly: "Compared to the unrealistic thing of ascending to heaven, I would rather hope to find the whereabouts of the Heavenly Court."

"Maybe, I can find a way to counter the erosion of the Heavenly Dao there... or if I can find the Lord of the Heavenly Court, maybe I can find the answer from him."

"I think he should have no way..." Mu Zhian's expression was subtle.

The princess frowned slightly, and although her voice was gentle, there was a bit of instruction in her tone: "The Heavenly Court can jump out of the world and is not even affected by the Heavenly Dao, which is enough to explain the means of the Lord of the Heavenly Court."

"Don't be too absolute in everything."

Mu Zhian was silent for a long time and didn't speak.

The princess probably thought that Mu Zhian was hit by what she said just now, and her tone softened a bit, saying: "But you don't have to belittle yourself. With your talent and the support of the Green Emperor, it is not impossible for you to resonate with the Tao and enter the state of harmony with the Tao in the future."

Mu Zhian nodded humbly and said: "I will keep in mind the teachings of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but the matter of the spiritual energy in the Heavenly Court involves too many secrets. You are a friend trusted by His Majesty Luo Tan, and I naturally believe in you. It's just that if I want to enter the Heavenly Court, I may have to pay a certain price..."

"I know, I have been prepared since the beginning." The princess nodded. She knew that everything has a price, not to mention that she wanted to go to the Heavenly Court.

Since entering the world of cultivation, the only two goals of cultivators are to achieve harmony with the Tao and to ascend to the Heavenly Court.

Because it is rumored that cultivators who ascend to the Heavenly Court can live forever, and even the speed of cultivation in the Heavenly Court will be much faster than the outside world.

And top powers like the princess know that this rumor is true.

The Heavenly Palace does exist.

However, unless the path to becoming an immortal is revealed, it is impossible to ascend to the Heavenly Palace no matter what... This is something that has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of cultivators.

If you want to enter the Heavenly Palace without the right time, place and people, even if you can do it, you will probably have to pay a heavy price.

But in order to solve the problem of the erosion of the Heavenly Dao, the only way the princess can think of is the Heavenly Palace.

Mu Zhian pondered for a moment and said, "Your Highness, can you give me two or three more days to consider it?"

The princess felt a little disappointed in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. She nodded gently and said, "Mr. Mu will be suspected if he leaves the banquet for too long. Let's go back earlier."

When Mu Zhian turned around and was about to leave, the princess suddenly called him: "No matter what Mr. Mu decides in the end, I will give you Yunyan Liu after I find it."

Mu Zhian paused slightly, and then hummed softly.

After leaving the side hall, Mu Zhian looked up at the gradually dimming sky and couldn't help but chuckle.

He originally came to Yunzhou to look for Yunyanliu, but he didn't expect that he hadn't found Yunyanliu yet, but he got a bigger harvest...

If what the princess said today is true, then she is indeed the enemy of the Heavenly Dao.

If she is not in harmony with the Heavenly Dao, then she is his ally.

...

In order to avoid suspicion, the princess deliberately staggered with Mu Zhian for a while before returning to the dinner.

Today, many ministers of Yunzhou brought their wives and daughters. They are all noble in Yunzhou, and their wives and daughters are naturally quite beautiful.

However, with the princess's arrival, it seemed that all the women attending the banquet were eclipsed.

Especially since she was wearing a dress made of Nirvana silk today.

The dress that Mu Zhian carefully designed for the princess naturally fits her body very well. Although the material is a bit conservative and almost covers the princess's skin, the skin exposed to the air is white and translucent. The tight silver-white dress can hardly hide the proud figure.

Her long curly hair is tied up in a bun at the back, and a strand of fine hair hangs down and gently rests on her shoulders, with a dignified demeanor.

The pink and white veil on her face adds a bit of hazy beauty to her face, making people want to take off her veil to see what's inside.

Even an old hand like Mu Zhian can't help but secretly sigh at the princess's figure. Not only is her breast volume amazing, but most importantly, her dress and even her temperament reveal a full sense of wife, and her beautiful legs are wrapped in translucent white silk, adding a bit of sacred and inviolable feeling.

"The Qing Emperor is really thoughtful. This dress design matches the princess's appearance, which is really a perfect match."

The wife of a minister in the audience looked at this scene with envy and couldn't help but admire it.

After this, more ministers gave sincere praises, and the Dapeng Emperor on the stage smiled even more.

For the Lord of Yunzhou, even if he and the princess are not actually married, in the eyes of the cultivators outside, he and the princess are a good story.

Both of them are in the realm of harmony, and his beloved concubine is even more beautiful.

It's just a pity that after so many years, his beloved concubine is still too cold to him in private.

If it weren't for this, Dapeng Emperor wouldn't have been angry when he saw the princess and a male cultivator sitting in a pavilion chatting.

But now the misunderstanding has been resolved.

Mu Zhian's Taoist partner is Fairy Yao Meng. With the strength and beauty of that fairy, how dare Mu Zhian hide his private affairs with other women from her?

Besides, his beloved concubine can't possibly look down on him.

The singing and dancing were going on. At this time, the gentle voice of the princess suddenly came from the hall: "I heard that when I was not in Yunzhou these few days, it seemed that many Sabbath apostles came to Yunzhou to collect luck... Have you sent people to confirm their movements?"

As soon as these words came out, the lively atmosphere seemed to be a little quiet.

The ministers looked at each other, and seemed to see confusion in each other's eyes.

Then, a minister raised his hand and bowed, saying: "Your Highness, the Sabbath matter was handled by Wen Jun, but he was ill today and did not attend the banquet..."

"A cultivator in the Return to Void Realm was ill? Even if it is an excuse, you should find a better excuse, right?"

The princess' voice was still so gentle and calm, but there was a bit more coldness in her tone.

As soon as these words came out, the ministers did not dare to say a word.

Seeing this, Emperor Dapeng couldn't help but smile and said, "My beloved concubine, don't worry so much. With you and me in charge of Yunzhou, Sabbath can't make any waves."

"As for the Sabbath Apostles collecting luck... a little luck is actually dispensable for Yunzhou."

The princess was silent for a moment, and then she opened her red lips and said, "But since the beginning of this life, Yunzhou's luck has been declining. Have you ever thought about the reason?"

"Your Highness, there is actually no need to worry so much. Not to mention that there are two great masters in Yunzhou who are in charge of the Dao, even if this matter is put aside... Yunzhou still has the blessing of the Heavenly Dao." A minister in the audience said.

"Indeed, with the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, the luck may rebound after declining to a certain extent... After all, the Heavenly Dao will protect Yunzhou in the dark."

For a while, many ministers in the audience nodded slightly while talking to each other, as if they had enough confidence in the Heavenly Dao.

It's no wonder. They were born and raised under the protection of the Heavenly Dao. Even the spiritual energy for cultivation is directly supplied by the Heavenly Dao. The spiritual energy is much richer than other places.

It can be said that Yunzhou is a blessed place favored by the Heavenly Dao.

Dapeng Emperor also said: "My beloved concubine must be too worried. You have been busy with external affairs during this period. Just let me handle the Sabbath affairs. You can rest for a few days."

The princess stopped talking.

If Dapeng Emperor really wanted to send someone to secretly determine the whereabouts of the Sabbath Apostle, he should have dealt with it long ago in Yunzhou for such a long time, and it would not have dragged on until she spoke.

"Everyone, drink slowly. I have some insights these days, so I will go back to practice in seclusion."

She sighed in her heart, put down the wine glass, and after saying a few words, she gestured to the maid beside her and ordered: "Take Master Mu to the empty room to rest."

Mu Zhian looked at the figure of the princess leaving, and glanced at the subjects in the hall again, with a thoughtful look on his face.

He nodded slightly, stood up and was about to leave the hall under the guidance of the maid.

At this time, a servant outside the hall suddenly hurried into the hall and said: "Big, big things are not good!"

"Why are you so panicked? What's wrong?" The minister on the side scolded.

Dapeng Emperor stared: "What's wrong?"

"There is a part of the creatures in the north of Yunzhou that are inexplicably aging. There is a good news from there. It seems that the forbidden land of life is expanding from the north." The servant said hurriedly.

"Forbidden Land of Life? We have always lived in peace with it in the past, why is it..."

For a moment, the court officials attending the banquet all showed astonishment.

"Don't worry, I will go and see it myself."

The Great Peng Emperor spoke to comfort everyone and smiled: "Forbidden Land of Life, it's not like I haven't been there before."

It's better to say that the immortal medicine he got now was taken from the Forbidden Land of Life.

"Since it wants to expand outward, I will go to the forbidden land of life and suppress it!"

...

That night.

The princess returned to the small courtyard where she lived, sat on the futon, closed her eyes slightly, and tried her best to keep her mood calm.

However, when she thought of the things that happened in the past thousand years, she couldn't help but sigh.

In the past, when the Great Peng Emperor was not yet a great power of the Hedao, he also focused on governing Yunzhou.

At that time, the Great Peng Emperor did not believe in the way of heaven, but only believed in himself.

However, since the opening of the golden age of Jiuzhou in this life, the spiritual energy of the way of heaven began to gradually erode the original spiritual energy of Yunzhou, and Yunzhou became more and more prosperous. The spiritual energy in the furnace of almost every cultivator was extremely strong.

And the Great Peng Emperor also gradually slacked off at this time and began to focus all his energy on "feathering and ascending".

Since Jiuzhou entered a new life, the Great Peng Emperor has used a lot of human resources to explore the forbidden land of life and seek immortal medicine.

Even when the Sabbath came, he did not stop exploring, and therefore, many cultivators in Yunzhou died in the life forbidden land of Yunzhou.

However, every time there was a princess filling the loopholes behind the scenes, so it has been peaceful all the time.

A few days ago, she went to see Luo Tan, on the one hand, to see what Luo Tan thought of Yunzhou now, and on the other hand, to see this close friend.

Another aspect was to see whether Dapeng Emperor would handle Yunzhou's affairs properly during the time when he was away from Yunzhou.

As a result, he even put aside the matter of Sabbath, and even sent someone to secretly follow the Sabbath Apostle.

This is a manifestation of arrogance, and it is also a manifestation that he does not take Yunzhou's affairs to heart.

Dapeng Emperor's mind is now all on the immortal medicine he got.

He even did not notice that the Heavenly Dao has become more and more "rampant" in recent years, almost assimilating the entire Yunzhou.

Indeed, the Heavenly Dao is now protecting Yunzhou, because Yunzhou is full of people who believe in it.

But what if one day, more monks in Yunzhou believe in the underground or human way?

The princess sighed softly.

Even though she had known the character of the Great Peng Emperor for a long time, she was still disappointed with his inaction.

At the moment, she had no better solution, so she could only continue to maintain the order of Yunzhou... until she found the location of the Heavenly Court, and then use the spiritual energy of the Heavenly Court to resist the erosion of the Heavenly Way.

Dongdong...

The princess was thinking about this when she suddenly heard a slight knock at the door.

"Your Highness, is it convenient to come in now?"

Mu Zhian, why is he here...?

Although she thought about it, the princess still agreed to Mu Zhian's entry.

"Well... come in."

Mu Zhian pushed open the door and saw the plump and beautiful princess sitting cross-legged on the futon, her eyes slightly closed, and a little red decoration between her eyebrows, which made her beautiful face look a bit charming and charming.

"I intend to accept your previous proposal and assist you in going to the Heavenly Palace." Mu Zhian whispered.

The princess suddenly opened her eyes and stared at him with burning eyes.

Her beautiful eyes flashed with surprise and surprise, her heart trembled slightly, and she could hardly suppress the joy in her heart.

"Why did you... suddenly agree?"

The princess tried her best to keep herself calm, wanting to know what Mu Zhian's purpose was.

"Just now I saw your conversation with Dapeng Emperor in the palace, and thought of your efforts in Yunzhou over the years, I really couldn't bear it." Mu Zhian smiled.

"Is this sympathy for me?" The princess showed a self-deprecating smile. She never thought that she, a great master of Hedao, would be sympathized by a small cultivator.

"Not sympathy, but respect."

However, the next moment, Mu Zhian's answer was beyond the princess's expectations.

"The Great Peng Emperor is determined to ascend to heaven, and all the ministers are immersed in the peace of mind of the blessing of the heaven. Only one person is silently supporting the entire Yunzhou."

Mu Zhian stared at the beautiful face of the woman with a veil on her face, and whispered: "So I respect you very much."

The princess' eyes flickered, but she didn't know how to answer Mu Zhian for a while.

She didn't expect that a young cultivator who had just known her for a short time could understand her and support her...

"Besides...maybe I also have some admiration for you."

Mu Zhian smiled self-deprecatingly: "I know you may find this contemptuous, but a woman who supports the entire Yunzhou...such a demeanor, I'm afraid any man will have some admiration."

The princess was stunned for a moment, staring at Mu Zhian in disbelief.

She didn't expect that this young man was so bold that he dared to express his love to her when he already had the Qingdi as a Taoist partner and even had a close relationship with Luo Tan in private.

Isn't this a complete playboy? !

But she could not sense any hypocrisy in Mu Zhian's eyes and tone. It was pure and sincere love.

She had never felt such sincere love even from her fiancé, Dapeng Huang.

Because Dapeng Huang pursued her simply because he liked her body and wanted to use her body to try to communicate with the avenue.

At this moment, all kinds of emotions intertwined in the princess' heart. She wanted to rebuke Mu Zhian for his boldness and fickleness, but for some reason, she did not feel angry.

Instead, she was a little panicked.

But after all, she was one of the rulers of Yunzhou, so the princess quickly calmed down, raised her head, and was about to say something.

At this time, Mu Zhian put his index finger in front of his lips, with a sunny smile on his face, and said: "You don't have to give me an answer so quickly, because before that, I will help you enter the heaven."

"But it may offend you."

The princess has not yet recovered from Mu Zhian's bold confession, and just asked in a trance: "What offense--"

Before the voice fell, Mu Zhian took two steps to the princess, and then a hand suddenly covered her eyes.

Then, Mu Zhian occupied the princess's delicate red lips through the veil in the dim light.

The princess' eyes were a little dazed, and she seemed to have not reacted yet.

Only when she felt the warm breath of the boy did she wake up, and immediately pushed Mu Zhian's hand away, staring at Mu Zhian with shame and anger.

"Mu Zhian, you——"

Then, before the princess could speak, she found that everything in front of her was no longer the original room.

This world is filled with extremely rich spiritual energy.

"Where is this place...?" The princess looked around in disbelief. She found that even the spiritual consciousness of the Hedao realm could not confirm where this place was.

"Since your highness has guessed where my heavenly spiritual energy comes from, have you never doubted whether I can enter the heaven?"

At this time, Mu Zhian's voice suddenly sounded from behind, and also pulled the princess back to reality from her previous thoughts.

She turned her head and saw the young man who appeared behind her at some point.

At this moment, the thoughts in her mind flashed quickly like a fleeting light.

Then, as if she realized something, the princess' heartbeat suddenly accelerated a few points.

"Is this the heaven?"

There is absolutely no mistake. The spiritual energy in this world is far more than Jiuzhou by many times, and it is exactly the same as the heavenly spiritual energy she felt in Yunzhou.

There is no doubt that this is the Heavenly Palace.

But the question is, why is she here?

The scene of Mu Zhian kissing her lips through the veil quickly appeared in the princess' mind, and her pretty face blushed slightly.

She stared at Mu Zhian, lowered her voice, and whispered: "... Who are you?"

...

...
