Chapter 1269: Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal for a Man?
Looking at the portrait in her hand, a sickly obsession slowly welled up in Mu Feiyu's eyes.
Everyone knew that Empress Mu Feiyu had ruled the Tianyu Dynasty for many years, not only making it a powerful force second only to the holy lands, but she herself was also at the Great Saint Perfect Completion Realm.
Her combat power was hailed as one of the strongest beneath the Great Emperor, a powerhouse ranked highly in Central Province and even the entire Haotu World.
Yet to this day, Mu Feiyu had never had a partner, and for so many years, there had never been any man in the Tianyu Imperial Palace.
Once, ministers of the Tianyu Dynasty had advised Mu Feiyu to choose an Imperial Consort.
But those who advised her were executed on the spot by Mu Feiyu, without the slightest mercy.
Over time, the world seemed to conclude that Mu Feiyu had no romantic feelings at all.
But who would have known that such a room existed in the back palace?
Whenever she had free time, Mu Feiyu would come here alone, imagining Yu Mo's appearance while drawing him on paper, then slowly admiring it.
"This time, you won't be able to escape."
Looking at the painting in her hand, Mu Feiyu said slowly. Did you think I would have no way to deal with you just because you went to Fengzhou?
Carefully putting the painting away, Mu Feiyu walked out of the room with a determined look, then took out an imaging array disc.
"The Empress is busy with ten thousand matters a day, how do you have the time to contact me?"
The array connected quickly, and an old man with a celestial aura appeared on the light screen, saying with a smile.
Hearing this, Mu Feiyu did not waste words, stating bluntly.
"Help me bring someone back, and I will give you the Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal you want."
Huh???
Hearing this, the old man on the other side was stunned, as if he had never expected Mu Feiyu to say such a thing.
One had to know that he had long coveted the Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal.
Moreover, he had even been willing to pay a great price to beg for one from Mu Feiyu.
But all this time, Mu Feiyu had never agreed.
After all, this Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal was a peerless treasure; the entire Central Province only possessed three, all held by the Tianyu Dynasty.
But what was happening today? Mu Feiyu, who wouldn't agree even for a huge price in the past, had actually taken the initiative to speak, and the request was merely for one person?
One person in exchange for a Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal? Who was this person?
After a brief moment of stagnation, the old man spoke.
"What kind of person could make the Empress willing to exchange a Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal?"
"I don't want to waste words. Do you agree or not?"
"Then why doesn't the Empress take action herself?"
"This person is in Fengzhou."
"So that's how it is. Deal."
Such a good thing, the old man naturally would not refuse. Moreover, with the person in Fengzhou, it was even simpler.
Receiving the old man's response, Mu Feiyu nodded indifferently.
"Do not harm him in the slightest. Find him and bring him to the Tianyu Dynasty, and I will give you the Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal then."
Having said this, without waiting for the old man to reply, Mu Feiyu hung up the array directly.
This was the dominance of the Empress; even though the person on the other side was the ancestor of the Bai family, a Great Saint powerhouse, she remained indifferent.
In the central location of Fengzhou, there was a mountain peak that pierced the clouds like a sharp sword.
The entire mountain was composed of cliffs and precipices, with no place for people to climb.
Yet starting from the mountainside, buildings were constructed on the cliffs with such craftsmanship that they seemed divine.
This mountain was hailed as the number one peak of Fengzhou, and it was also the location of the Fengzhou hegemon, the Bai family.
Having passed down through countless years, the Bai family could be said to have never declined.
It was the undisputed hegemon of all of Fengzhou.
At this moment, in a quiet courtyard on the mountain peak, the Bai family ancestor, having just finished his conversation with Mu Feiyu, put down the imaging array disc. A middle-aged man beside him couldn't help but speak.
"Father, what medicine is the Empress selling in her gourd? Back then, when you personally went to the Tianyu Dynasty, she wouldn't agree, but now she only wants one person."
The middle-aged man was the son of the Bai family ancestor, the current head of the Bai family, also at the Great Saint cultivation level.
Hearing this, the Bai family ancestor laughed.
"Regardless of the reason, this matter is not a loss for our Bai family. Alright, make the arrangements; first, find the whereabouts of the master."
The Empress had already shown the portrait of Yu Mo to the Bai family ancestor on the imaging array disc.
And to be safe, she had provided portraits of him as a youth, middle-aged, and old man, which could be said to be extremely complete.
Hearing this, the Bai family head nodded.
"Alright, Father."
The Bai family head went to make arrangements. Yu Mo still didn't know that although he thought he would be fine after running to Fengzhou, he hadn't even sat down comfortably before Mu Feiyu had directly contacted the Fengzhou hegemon, the Bai family.
Moreover, she had not hesitated to offer the Phoenix Blood Spirit Crystal, a peerless treasure, as a condition, making it impossible for the Bai family to refuse.
At this moment, the group arrived at a small city at a leisurely pace.
It was not large, and quite ordinary; there were countless such cities in Central Province.
Walking idly on the streets, compared to a national capital like the Great Yuan Imperial Capital, this city had absolutely no comparison.
"The Great Yuan Imperial Capital is still more prosperous."
"That is natural. And if you go to a top-tier city like the Tianyu Imperial Capital, you will know that the Great Yuan Imperial Capital is nothing."
"The Tianyu Dynasty... perhaps we won't have the chance."
The fellow disciples chatted, and when they mentioned the Tianyu Dynasty, everyone looked at Yu Mo involuntarily.
Because of Yu Mo, it was very likely that they would have no chance with the Tianyu Dynasty.
Facing the gaze of the many disciples, Yu Mo cursed unhappily.
"What are you looking at me for? What is so good about the Tianyu Dynasty? Don't forget the purpose of our coming out. You only know how to sightsee all day. We are here to train, to lead the charge for the sect, and yet you think about useless things all day."
At Yu Mo's scolding, the disciples naturally scoffed.
Was that because of serious business?
However, just as they were speaking, a team of cultivators walked toward them from the front, the leader holding a portrait in his hand.
From afar, they headed straight for Yu Mo.
Seeing this, Yu Mo frowned slightly; he didn't know these people.
Soon, the team arrived in front of Yu Mo and stood still. They were indeed looking for him, and looking at the portrait in their hands, they seemed to be comparing something.
The group was curious and leaned over to look, discovering that the person was holding a portrait of Yu Mo.
"Eh, Martial Uncle's portrait?"
"What's the situation?"
Having just arrived in Fengzhou, someone had come to their door with a portrait; this was strange. Could it be...
For a moment, the group's gazes became strange, and Wang Man and Yuan Cang were even more curious.
"Old thing, do you have a debt of love in Fengzhou too?"
"I have nothing of the sort."
Hearing this, Yu Mo cursed unhappily. He hadn't done anything in Fengzhou, and even in all of Central Province, the only debt of love he had was with Mu Feiyu.
It was just that Yu Mo himself was curious, how did these guys have his portrait?
Just as he wanted to ask, he heard the other party speak first. ===== CHAPTER 1270 =====
