After the global recovery, I traveled through

The great state of Chu, Zuo, has been here for a long time, which has caused great changes in the world! " said Patriarch Zhengqing, who was standing beside Zhenjun Miao Shui.

Miao Shui Zhenjun's eyes flashed, and he smiled calmly: "This is the real great change of heaven and earth, the overlap of the two realms! This woman has great merits!"

Patriarch Zhengqing suddenly wondered: "Why do you suddenly talk about the power of merit?"

Miao Shui Zhenjun Xiang Ju replied: "My Taoist friends don't know. Although ordinary human beings are not hindered by merit, after we become immortals, we will be at the top of the immortal path. We can use the power of merit to explore the way of heaven."

"So, fellow Taoist, you—"

"Yes, I have a hunch that I can become an immortal in a short time!"

"Congratulations."

Xiang Ju smiled happily, of course not because he could become an immortal, but because of the power that gradually surged in his body - heaven has clear rewards and punishments, and Yu Buzhao has great faults, but he also has merit.

As long as he has the power of an immortal, he can use this power of merit!

When the immortal leader arrived with all the immortals, he took a look, and then focused his attention on the empress again.

Yu Buzha's merits are nothing, but the great ones belong to the empress.

If you want the demon clan to prosper and rule the world, will the merits of the empress be enough?

And... Xiang Ju is not used to the body of a human or an immortal after all.

His body was destroyed, and this immortal named Miao Shui Zhenjun might be able to create the body of a water demon.

Pengniao Pengniao...

He thought of "Xiaoyaoyou" which was circulated in the world.

——Kunpeng.

That would be Yikun.

For the past ten years, he has been controlling the body of the true king, wandering away from the immortals, and shaping his own demon body in the land of water. He has the aura of heaven and the power of merit, and he is originally a monster, so this monster body is a real monster body.

In the tenth year of Kaiyuan, he secretly returned to the Immortal Palace to find the leader of the Immortal Way. He bluntly said that he had a premonition that he would be promoted to an immortal and hoped for help.

As a result, the immortal leader who was originally preparing to go to the human world stopped and ordered the immortal to postpone his departure.

She was a very gentle immortal, and she was unquestionably delighted. In order to make the promotion smooth, she even sent away the other immortals, leaving only Patriarch Zhengqing outside the door.

She penetrated her immortal power into Zhenjun Miao Shui's body and sensed the condition of his body for him.

Then Xiang Ju's power of merit was aroused, and he used up all his power to press towards the immortal.

"Although you are an immortal, you have been in the outside world for many years and your strength is not as good as this."

The leader of the Immortal Dao said sadly: "You...this monster has actually become one with the Dao of Heaven!"

Xiang Ju chuckled and replied: "That's right. But all my strength was lost in order to seriously injure you, the immortal, and kill the one outside the door."

"It doesn't matter, I am confident that the law of heaven will reunite in three hundred years. Even then, the law of heaven will favor the demon clan as I thought." He said to himself.

The light in the leader's eyes gradually became chaotic.

Miao Shui Zhenjun gradually transformed into a small Kun, Xiang Ju flicked his tail and disappeared into the air.

He waited for many immortals to realize that something was wrong, and then rushed to the world at the suggestion of Bu Guozi.

This time in the human world is the birthday party of the son of General Chen of Great Chu.

Xiang Ju couldn't help but be a little surprised to see some strange scenes at the banquet. The empress actually fell to the ground.

Bu Guozi solemnly said: "The founder of Zhengqing passed away, and the immortal leader was seriously injured. I hope your majesty can save him."

Lin Qingqing asked quietly: "What happened? How to save it?"

An immortal explained at this time: "Your Majesty has the power of merit, which can be used by immortals, and the commander, an immortal, can use the power of merit to heal his wounds."

Lin Qingqing walked forward slowly, and a golden light lit up around her.

Incomparably huge power of merit lit up in her body.

Xiang Ju felt happy, and then his expression suddenly changed.

Bu Guozi's expression also changed, and he even forgot to call His Majesty Lin Qingqing: "Lin Qingqing, what are you doing!"

Lin Qingqing suddenly raised her head and revealed a sneer that was mixed with sarcasm and anger: "Why, divination fruit, don't you know where this power of merit comes from!"

His long fingers slid around the leader's neck, ready to choke her throat at any moment.

"Don't you know? This is the power of merit that your junior brother has worked so hard for! He almost died several times for this, don't you know? This is the merit that the First Emperor of Chu has earned through hard work!"

"This is what he left behind, the foundation of Da Chu and the country of Da Chu! An immortal who has nothing to do with me, an immortal who abandoned Da Chu, does she deserve the power of merit?"

Her expression would make people think that she had just received a blow and was about to vent her emperor's anger and pain to the surroundings, but her fingers suddenly tightened around the Immortal Commander's neck, telling everyone that she was serious.

"Nowadays, there are immortals who live in seclusion and refuse to join the world, so it would be better if they no longer exist in this world."

"Are you afraid?" Under the golden light, this emperor who had been beloved for his hard work in the past ten years looked like an unreasonable tyrant.

Surrounded by the immortals, she showed no fear at all.

At the same time, Chen Kele waved his hand, and a large number of troops poured into the palace.

If there was a war between humans and immortals... He frowned, then relaxed. What's there to fear?

However, after a while, Lin Qingqing's expression completely calmed down.

"I am not a madman." She looked around at the frightened courtiers and the immortals who were acting strangely, and said, "I want you to know that as long as I am here, you must put away your condescending attitude."

"It is decreed that in Luoshui City and the royal capital, the immortals and Taoists who dare to fly in the air will be killed without mercy as sinners of the Great Chu."

[Our Zhengqing Sect is respected as the leader of the Taoist sect, and all disciples can fly directly in the air except Luoshui City and the capital. ]

The golden words, all the immortals present fell to the ground.

"The power of merit will never be given to her for nothing, and exchanged for her power of the immortal."

Hearing this, Bu Guozi, who fell to the ground in embarrassment, said in surprise: "Why do you want the power of the immortal?! Qingqing, you shouldn't forget your father, you shouldn't pursue..."

- Do you want to seek immortality like Emperor Yuan! Do you want immortality to wait for that person's return!

Under the stimulation of the death of the ancestor, although Bu Guozi did not say these heartbreaking words, how could the smart Lin Qingqing not know.

Lin Qingqing shouted angrily: "Shut up! My last name is not Ling!"

"For ten years, I have respected you as an elder, and you have speculated about me like this! You are not allowed to call my name!"

She turned to the several Wenquxing who were standing there and said: "I don't want to see any records about him in the history books."

The empress was furious, and the official knelt down trembling.

Lin Qingqing moved her fingers, and some merit power was injected into the body of the Immortal Dao Commander, and the Immortal Dao Commander's injury improved.

A layer of clear light was also cast around Lin Qingqing.

"Qingqing." At such a critical moment, the only person who could call the empress like this was General Chen, who was her childhood sweetheart. "You haven't entered the Dao, so you can't use the power of the celestial immortal."

After Chen Kele finished speaking, he noticed the look Lin Qingqing was looking at him, and he couldn't help but be stunned, sighed, and stopped talking.

"There's no need to delete what's already written in the history books." He said to the officials, adding a sentence in case Qingqing didn't want to, "After all, he has a history with His Majesty the First Emperor."

Several people quickly responded and withdrew, and the men who were presented to the empress never dared to have other thoughts again.

Xiang Ju only got part of the power of merit. He controlled this immortal body and stayed away from other immortals in the name of recuperation to avoid being exposed. The responsibility of leading the immortals temporarily fell on Bu Guozi.

From then on, Bu Guozi had a rift with the empress.

In the 15th year of Kaiyuan, rumors about the empress's obsession with the First Emperor and the joke that Chen Kele's son had the potential to be an emperor quietly spread in the capital.

Xiang Ju was the one who spread the rumors, and he wanted the empress to be separated from the world.

General Chen and the empress still had a good relationship, and they often missed the First Emperor together.

In the same year, the empress selected an heir from the Zhang and Chen families to train.

The rumors subsided.

In the 20th year of Kaiyuan, the leader of the immortal way died due to his injury. Before his death, he said: "How can there be another emperor who can become an immortal in Da Chu? This is against the way of the emperor. I would like to inform your majesty not to make a mistake."

So the rumor spread again under the impetus of some people who were dissatisfied with women being emperors and Xiang Ju.

Under the calm appearance of Da Chu, there was a turbulent undercurrent.

"Am I old?" The 35-year-old empress asked this question, as if she didn't realize that she had asked a taboo question that made all the palace people tremble and dare not answer.

She really couldn't use the power of the immortal, so her appearance was aging. Even though the palace's fine clothes and delicious food could keep a woman well-maintained, the hidden illness left by years of hard work and the miserable life in her childhood made her look extremely haggard.

Lin Qingqing looked at herself in the mirror and subconsciously showed a soft smile.

But the eyes of the person in the mirror were sad as if she was about to cry.

That soft smile was eventually blurred under the pearl hanging on the emperor's forehead.

She shouldn't smile like that, an emperor shouldn't be gentle.

She suddenly felt tired, she didn't know where the rumors came from, who had the guts to make up stories about an emperor.

Sometimes she would have a terrible thought, these rumors could spread like this, are people really dissatisfied with her?

Is she really... just like the rumors, but she just doesn't want to admit it.

From this time on, even she herself planted the seeds of doubting herself.

"Da Le, do immortals never age, do immortals live for a long time, do immortals--"

She had some small thoughts, since the rumors said so, why not... really use the immortal power, at least make herself look younger.

She turned her head and saw Chen Ke Le standing at the door of the palace, frowning.

He still looked very young. Women of this age are already old, but men are in their prime.

She finally sighed, let go of that thought, and said, "Yes, people will grow old and die, and immortals will die too."

She couldn't be so selfish. Maybe if she used power that didn't belong to her to keep her beauty, the heavens would be angry with Da Chu.

From the 20th to the 30th year of Kaiyuan, rumors that the empress Xiao Qi's father pursued immortality spread widely in the world.

The empress was furious, and countless officials were imprisoned. For a while, the capital was in turmoil, and everyone was in danger.

However, the rumors did not subside but intensified, as if there was a big mouth in the sky that kept opening and closing, blowing the rumors to all parts of the country.

During the New Year's Jubilee in the 30th year of Kaiyuan, the empress held a banquet for thousands of elders. The participants were all elders from various places, and their words usually carried a lot of weight. At the end of the banquet, the empress made her intention clear, asking them to restrain the children of each family from believing in false rumors.

At this banquet attended by the elderly, Bu Guozi, the head of the immortals, was supposed to come, but he only sent a blessing. Everyone speculated that there was a rift between the immortals and the humans. However, the empress sighed.

"You didn't come to the banquet, but you remembered that blessing should be written upside down?"

On the surface, she said that Bu Guozi had a bad memory and forgot to write the word "Fu" upside down when attending the banquet, but in fact, she was telling Bu Guozi that she had forgiven him. Because Bu Guozi did not remember that "Fu" should be written upside down, but remembered - "Where does this merit power come from" that the empress asked twenty years ago. He
