Taoist

The Daoist General Assembly, which was originally huge and powerful, suddenly announced the end without making a sound, which felt a bit anticlimactic.

As many monks returned from the realm of Chengtian, all kinds of rumors about this conference quickly flew to various places in the Nine Heavens Realm as if they had grown wings.

Only five or six out of ten of these monks who participated in this conference returned safely, and many small sects suffered heavy losses, almost like candles in the wind, which may be overthrown at any time.

Many monks realized that this conference might have been planning something from the very beginning, and it was a conspiracy to gather them to the Chengtian Realm.

It's just that they couldn't figure out, what good would slaughtering these small sects and these little monks do to those high-ranking Nascent Soul experts?

Or maybe they have faintly realized something, but they dare not think about it, because the things behind the truth may be more unacceptable than what they see now.

And with the return of the disciples, the news that the Scarlet Flame Palace has now been turned into a piece of scorched earth also quickly spread to all sects.

The Scarlet Flame Palace is one of the sects at the top of the cultivation world. Now that the sect has been destroyed, it has suddenly become fat in the eyes of the other sects.

If it were before this Dao Sect Conference, other sects might not be so obvious, and they might even help out of morality.

But in the current situation, no one mentions the so-called face and morality anymore.

The sects originally attached to the Scarlet Flame Palace switched to other places one after another, but this time the disciples of the Scarlet Flame Palace who escaped by accident because of going to the Realm of Chengtian, greeted with panic after being lucky.

This panic reached its peak after several elders were killed by monks who came to seek revenge.

Before, they relied on the power of the Scarlet Flame Palace, but they offended many people.

There used to be sect protectors, they were naturally not afraid of anything, but now...

Looking at this scene, Zhu Yu felt ashamed.

He bowed deeply to the elders in front of him, "Masters, please save the sect!"

The old man with white beard and long eyebrows in the middle said unhurriedly: "As long as you and I are still here, there will always be a day when the Red Flame Palace will be rebuilt. As for the rest, you can give up."

When the old man looked at those disciples, there was no emotion in his eyes, just like looking at grass.

"If the world changes drastically today, for today's Scarlet Flame Palace, these people will only become a burden, don't you understand?"

"What's more, some people want us to make a move. Once we make a move, we will give them a chance..."

A faint coercion emanated from the old man, and Zhu Yu knelt down on the ground, feeling his heart plummet, as if he was in an ice cave.

The bone-chilling chill surrounded Zhu Yu, and he knew he couldn't refute, let alone resist.

These disciples, even elders...

Zhu Yu closed his eyes, unable to bear to think about it.

Under the nine layers of clouds is the ruins of a palace that has turned into scorched earth.On top of the ruins and rubble, there were still those disciples who were dazed and panicked.

They don't know that their fate has been decided in a few words.

The sect that once gave them shelter has now become the death talisman of Hades.

As for Zhu Yu, he could only give a long and deep reply, "Yes."

......

The old Wuping King abdicated, and the eldest son Huangfurui took over the title and became the new Wuping King.

And on the day when Huangfu Rui became King Wuping, the request for Huangfu Song to be crowned as his son was also handed over.

There was no disturbance in the middle, which disappointed some outsiders who knew about the things in Wuping Palace.

After all, no one in the entire capital knew that although Huangfu Song took the title of the eldest son, he left home to practice since he was a child, and his father, Huangfu Rui, did not like it at all.What's more, Huangfu Song had another young son whom he liked very much, and they all guessed that the title and family fortune would fall to this young son in the end.

Who knew that in the end Huangfusong would be allowed to inherit the position of son.

But it's not surprising that everyone thinks about it.Although Huangfu Song has not been in the capital for many years and his foundation is shallow, his status is doomed to have a natural advantage in inheriting the title, not to mention that there is an old prince on top of him.

Huangfusong didn't feel very happy to suddenly become the heir of Prince Wuping.

After all, he never thought of getting this seat.

Moreover, Huangfusong also knew that his father was not very happy to let him be the heir, but he had to do so under the pressure of his grandfather.

But as long as he thought that this matter would definitely make his father upset for a long time, Huangfusong felt that the position of the eldest son was not so unacceptable.

He never forgot what happened in Daze.

He has no way to do something about the relationship between father and son, but he is still very happy to make trouble for his father every day.

Huangfurui became King Wuping, regardless of whether he wanted it or not, Chu Shishi, as the eldest son and concubine, naturally became Princess Wuping.

"Princess Wuping..." Chu Shishi's eyes flashed with indistinguishable light, and she finally waited until this day.

Previously, she was the concubine of the crown prince, and when the old concubine Wuping passed away, it was equivalent to being in charge of the central chamber and the inner court.

But what Chu Shishi wanted was never these.

The family property of Prince Chuping's mansion is still not in her eyes, and she has no interest in helping the mansion with trivial internal affairs.

So even if Huangfu Song only dotes on his second wife and the youngest son he had with his second wife, Chu Shishi doesn't care.

Because her focus has never been on this aspect.

What she wants to do is Princess Chuping, get the canonization, and become the half master of the palace in a legitimate way.

This identity can facilitate her to do many things.

The most important thing is that it is convenient for her to find the thing that was left behind in the past——

Chu Shishi laughed happily.

Seeing her smiling inexplicably, the maid beside her thought that the master was happy because she became a princess, and didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Princess, the prince is here."

As soon as the maid finished speaking, she saw Huangfu Song enter the front of the hall.

"Mother, is there any news from my friend?"

As soon as he met Huangfusong, he couldn't wait to ask.

It can't be blamed on him being anxious, he couldn't get a lot of news in time while he was in the mansion, this time he still heard rumors outside by chance, saying that the Red Flame Palace was destroyed.

This reminded him of the matter that Zhu Yu, the master of the Red Flame Palace, made a big offering outside the capital some time ago.

Now that it has spread to the point where almost everyone knows it, it must have been a while since the incident happened, but he hadn't heard any news before that.

The destruction of the Red Flame Palace was a good thing for Huangfu Song, after all he and the Red Flame Palace could be regarded as a feud.

But Ling Yuan and Yun Mo are still in the Red Flame Palace!

Huangfu Song only heard about it, and knew that something important happened in Chiyan Palace, but how about the specifics, those rumors outside became more and more outrageous, so Huangfu Song had no choice but to come here again to ask his own mother.

After all, after several contacts, Huangfusong also noticed that his mother was definitely not simple.

It is very likely that all my previous perceptions of her were wrong.

What's more, it was also arranged by Chu Shishi when Yunmo entered Chiyan Palace, so now Huangfusong can only ask her.

Chu Shishi only glanced at Huangfusong, and knew that her son should already know about the Chiyan Palace.

After all, Huangfusong is not a character who can hide things.

Now that we already know, there is no point in concealing it any longer, so Chu Shishi also said directly to Huangfusong, "The connection has been broken."

Huangfu Song was stunned, "What does mother mean?"

Chu Shishi flicked the jade bracelet on her wrist lightly, "The Scarlet Flame Palace was destroyed, and in an instant, everything in a radius of thousands of miles was turned into flat ground—as for the reason, it seems that the strange fire on the ground was born suddenly."

When talking about different fires, Chu Shishi's eyes also flashed a trace of fear.

It's just a small world, who would have thought that such a thing could be bred.

Huangfu Song asked in a hoarse voice: "What about those people in the Scarlet Flame Palace?"

Chu Shishi didn't speak, just looked at him.

Under such power and influence, who can come out alive?

It goes without saying that everyone can understand this truth.

Huangfusong is naturally aware of this point, but he still has some luck.

What if?

What if Yunmo and the others come out early?

"Why didn't mother tell me about this earlier?"

"What's the use of telling you?" Chu Shishi asked back.

"Even if it's useless, mother shouldn't hide it from me..."

Huangfusong's questioning posture made the attendants in the room dare not breathe, and all lowered their heads, fearing that if they were not careful, the fish in the pond would be hurt.

If it were an ordinary mother and son, it would be considered rebellious for a son to talk to his mother like this.

It's just that Huangfusong and Chu Shishi, the mother and son, have never lived together, and it is pure nonsense to talk about the relationship between mother and child.

Huangfusong's respect for Chu Shishi was only due to the secular etiquette, but after all, he was a person who went out to practice Taoism since he was a child, so he naturally forgot everything when he was in a hurry.

And Chu Shishi was in almost the same situation with Huangfusong, so she was not unhappy about being offended.

The news is that she did not tell Huangfusong, but who stipulated that she must tell Huangfusong?

When she initially agreed to help, it was purely on a whim.

Therefore, facing Huangfusong's questioning, Chu Shishi just straightened her sleeves in a leisurely manner, "Aren't I afraid that you will be sad?"

Huangfu Song was so blocked that he couldn't speak, and suddenly felt how ridiculous it was for him to rely on Chu Shishi's help all the time.

He really trusted her before...

Seeing Huangfu Song turn around and leave, the maid beside Chu Shishi began to comfort her: "Princess, the son is your son after all..."

Is this a bit too much?

Chu Shishi raised her hand to signal the maid not to say any more, "Let him go."

Anyway, she will leave here after she finds something, and as for Huangfusong——

The author has something to say:

I never thought that I would try to relearn it one day because I am a scumbag in English...
