Chapter 1141

~8 min read 1,423 words

"You shouldn't feel like you've suffered a loss." Xu Yeyue hummed, "Being able to stay by Brother Taixuan's side is a blessing many people crave!"

As she spoke, she manifested Zhang Taixuan's appearance in the void.

"How is it?"

A Great Luo expert naturally has a divine charm.

Zhuang Qingshuang took one look, and her heart began to pound, her heart racing like a deer, and a rosy flush rose on her fair cheeks.

The slight unhappiness in her heart vanished without a trace.

If not for a woman's reserve, she would even want to see the person himself immediately.

Steadying herself, she suppressed the many thoughts in her heart.

Zhuang Qingshuang asked: "Since you joined the chat group, the Xu family's power will only grow larger; there's no need for me to go to the Great Luo Heaven. What is your purpose in doing this?"

Xu Yeyue chuckled: "Sister Qingshuang is too naive. Is there any merchant in this world who thinks they have too much money? Is there any official who thinks they have too much power?"

"No!" Zhuang Qingshuang shook her head gently.

Human hearts are never satisfied; one mountain looks higher than the next.

This is human nature.

Xu Yeyue laughed: "Naturally, I wouldn't think the Xu family's power is too great. Being able to establish a connection with Brother Taixuan, wouldn't it be better for the Xu family in the future?"

"That's true." Zhuang Qingshuang nodded, "I didn't expect you to do such things."

Xu Yeyue shook her head: "What's strange about this? As the young lady of the Ghost King's Mansion, I naturally have to plan for my own family. Only you, staying at home every day and not caring about anything, would find such things strange."

Even in ancient society, where women had no upward path in officialdom, there were still many women keen on power struggles.

Zhuang Qingshuang sighed: "Is it that I don't want to go out? It's that I can't go out."

She looked down and felt a bit discouraged.

Her figure was too good; she became the focus of everyone the moment she went out, and her father was counting on her to become a consort, so how could he let her show her face?

"That's true! Sister Qingshuang is too eye-catching." Xu Yeyue laughed, "Alright, let's go back. By now, the Xining Sect below must be in an uproar."

After they had been gone for a while, Zhuang Qingshuang's disappearance had already been discovered.

"Hmm."

The next moment, the two descended rapidly, soon arriving about a hundred meters above the Xining Sect.

"Sect Master, the Young Lady is in the sky!"

Suddenly, someone shouted.

Everyone looked up at the sky and saw two pretty young girls slowly descending.

The people present were all martial artists, but they had never seen such a scene and all stood frozen in place.

"Sister Qingshuang, you can explain the reason for this to the people of the Xining Sect." Xu Yeyue patted Zhuang Qingshuang's shoulder gently, "I'm leaving first. If your family agrees, feel free to come to the Ghost King's Mansion to find me."

"Hmm."

Zhuang Qingshuang nodded gently.

Xu Yeyue had a thought, leaped up, flew straight into the clouds, and disappeared.

Seeing Xu Yeyue disappear, Zhuang Jie finally came to his senses, looked at the sky in horror, and then turned his gaze to Zhuang Qingshuang.

It was too terrifying.

A martial artist could actually fly in the sky!

Even a master who shattered the void wouldn't have such ability!

When did the Ghost King's daughter gain such divine powers?

He had many doubts in his heart, but it wasn't convenient to ask in front of everyone.

Zhuang Jie waved his hand: "Go down and rest; try not to spread the word about today's events."

After speaking, he felt it was impossible.

Although the Xining Sect was a major sect in Jinling and a confidant of Zhu Yuanzhang, heaven knows how many spies and secret agents were in this sect.

It was likely that as soon as these people left, the matter of Zhuang Qingshuang and Xu Yeyue would spread to all the major forces in Jinling.

He had no way to deal with this and could only let it be, pretending not to know.

In the study.

"Qingshuang, what is going on?" Zhuang Jie looked at the somewhat reserved Zhuang Qingshuang, "How could Xu Yeyue fly and burrow into the earth?"

Zhuang Qingshuang steadied herself and said: "This matter is very mystical; does Father really want to know?"

"Naturally." Zhuang Jie nodded.

Hearing this, Zhuang Qingshuang cleared her thoughts and explained the reason for the matter.

"You mean, that Great Luo Immortal is interested in you?" Zhuang Jie's eyes were pleasantly surprised, his voice trembling.

Zhuang Qingshuang shook her head: "Miss Xu just intends to send me over."

Zhuang Jie clapped his hands: "That's also very good. Daughter, this is a great opportunity. As long as you can establish a connection with that Dao Lord, not only can you achieve immortality and become a god, but the Zhuang family can also benefit."

Zhuang Qingshuang had long anticipated Zhuang Jie's thoughts and nodded gently.

"Then tomorrow, Father, you can go to the Xu family to explain this matter."

Zhuang Jie laughed heartily: "Good, Qingshuang, you can think for the family like this; Father is very gratified."

As he spoke, he comforted her for a while and let Zhuang Qingshuang leave.

Outside, the moonlight was perfect.

Zhuang Qingshuang walked in the garden; a light breeze blew, stirring up fireflies, as if a galaxy were gathering before her eyes.

Although she had long known her father was heartless and treated her as a tool just to cling to others, when reality was placed before her, she still felt a bit uncomfortable.

"Can people really be heartless to this extent?" Zhuang Qingshuang was a bit puzzled.

Even if she was a woman and couldn't succeed the Xining Sect or inherit the Zhuang family, she was still her father's flesh and blood.

After thinking for a while, she couldn't figure it out.

In the end, she could only attribute it to the fact that aristocratic families had too many descendants and were used to being heartless toward ordinary ones, used to abandoning them to achieve the legend of a thousand-year family.

Thinking of this, she felt relieved instead.

The family was heartless to her, so she could go to the Great Luo Heaven without any attachments.

Thinking of the Great Luo Heaven, the image of the Dao Lord appeared in her mind again, and joy rose in her heart; even her sorrowful and lonely inner self was filled with hope.

She turned and returned to her room, not caring about the dim light, and focused on dressing up in her room.

On the other side.

The Ghost King finished his cultivation, summoned Bai Fanghua, exposed her identity, and put the matter on the table.

As a woman of the Demonic Sect, Bai Fanghua naturally didn't have the sentimentality of a rich young lady; having seen the Ghost King's cultivation and verified that what he said was correct, she didn't hesitate at all.

"Thank you, Foster Father; I will definitely perform well in the Great Luo Heaven."

The Ghost King nodded with satisfaction and suddenly looked up at the sky.

"Yue'er is back; she caused quite a stir. It seems I need to enter the palace to see the Emperor. It's just as well to tell him the matter, so he doesn't have to summon me."

"Foster Father wants to see the Emperor?" Bai Fanghua was surprised.

The Ghost King nodded: "Hmm. Stop the matters of the Heavenly Mandate Sect; Yunwen does not have the talent to rule the world. If he is allowed to be emperor, the common people will suffer."

"Yes, I will tell Master." Bai Fanghua nodded.

The Ghost King nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly looked up at the sky.

"Yue'er is back. The commotion she caused is a bit large. It seems I must enter the palace to see His Majesty. It just so happens I can state the matter, so as to avoid him summoning me."

"Godfather wants to see His Majesty?" Bai Fanghua was surprised.

The Ghost King nodded: "Yes. You should stop the affairs of your Heavenly Mandate Sect. Yunwen does not have the talent to rule the world; if he is allowed to be emperor, the common people will suffer."

"Yes, I will tell my Master," Bai Fanghua nodded.
