Chapter 431

In the empty sleeping palace, the atmosphere was strange, and the scene was silent for a while!

Xu Que stood in place, staring with wide eyes, his little heart pounding wildly.

However, the Empress was very calm, seemingly unaware of how much impact her shoulders had on Xu Que, only slightly loosening her collar, and taking out a blue jade necklace from between her neck!

The necklace was woven with small silver chains, each strand of silver actually contained mysterious power, exuding bursts of ancient aura, and the blue jade in the middle was crystal clear, shining brilliantly under the sunlight, and even had a faint, refreshing fragrance that was refreshing to the heart.

"Little guy, your Heavenly Tribulation is near, wearing this necklace on your body, whether it is for your tribulation crossing or future cultivation, it will be helpful!" The Empress waved her slender hand, and the necklace instantly floated into the air, flying slowly toward Xu Que.

At the same time, she also tidied her makeup, restoring her dignified and elegant side.

This... this is too bullying! Although I am honest and simple, it doesn't mean I am easy to bully, no, I must look a few more times!

Xu Que immediately opened his eyes wide, staring intently at the Empress... her face!

I only saw half of her shoulders, so I must look at her face, I can't lose money!

"Little guy?" At this moment, the Empress spoke again, seemingly noticing that Xu Que's expression was wrong, and looked over with slight confusion.

"En, what's the matter?" Xu Que sat upright, staring intently.

The Empress was confused and didn't notice: "What's wrong with you? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Xu Que: "No, don't worry about me, I'm practicing Closed-Eye Zen!"

The Empress couldn't help but laugh: "I've only ever heard of Closed-Mouth Zen, where did Closed-Eye Zen come from? Besides, your eyes are open so wide, how can you realize the Zen intent?"

Xu Que said with a straight face: "This is the highest realm of Closed-Eye Zen!"

Lying with eyes open!

Xu Que would definitely not say this second half of the sentence.

The Empress was also amused by his expression, shook her head and said: "You little guy, you're strange all day long, alright, hurry up and put the necklace away, it will be helpful for your cultivation in the future!"

"Oh!"

Xu Que finally came back to his senses, discovering that the strand of necklace was already floating in front of him, so he reached out to grab it.

As soon as the necklace touched his palm, he felt a trace of warmth coming from the blue jade, and at the same time, it exuded a refreshing fragrance.

"Little guy, why are you absent-minded again? Are you worried about the Heavenly Tribulation?" The Empress asked with concern when she saw Xu Que's strange expression; she didn't think in certain directions.

Xu Que hurriedly squeezed out a smile and replied: "Aha, it's nothing, it's nothing, it's just a Heavenly Tribulation, nothing to worry about. I just want to ask, are you still missing a necklace? I'm willing!"

"I still have necklaces, you don't need to give me one!" The Empress smiled faintly.

Although she had lived for many years, she certainly didn't have as much profound knowledge as Xu Que, and didn't hear the teasing in Xu Que's words, thinking Xu Que wanted to give her a necklace in return.

"What a pity, what a pity!" Xu Que instantly looked regretful.

The Empress pursed her lips and smiled: "It seems you are not nervous, that's good, the Heavenly Tribulation is coming, your mentality must be strong, you cannot be cowardly or worried!"

Xu Que crossed his legs unnaturally, covering up his embarrassment in certain aspects, and pretended to examine the necklace in his hand: "Little girl, is this necklace a protective dharma artifact? Eh, this... is actually an eight-star dharma artifact?"

Suddenly, he was moved.

This necklace was actually an eight-star dharma artifact!

As far as he knew, in the Five Kingdoms, eight-star dharma artifacts were rare, and even the Fire Yuan Kingdom couldn't produce an eight-star dharma artifact, and even the only eight-star dharma artifact on Xu Que's body was half-tricked and half-snatched from Er Gouzi, which was enough to make many cultivators jealous.

But now, the Empress, knowing he was going to cross the tribulation, was actually generous, taking out the eight-star necklace she had been wearing close to her body and giving it to Xu Que.

"Little girl, hurry up and take this necklace back, I'm just crossing the tribulation, I don't need such a high-grade dharma artifact!" Xu Que felt embarrassed to accept this necklace.

After all, he really had ways to cross this Heavenly Tribulation, and didn't need to use an eight-star dharma artifact to resist it, and eight-star dharma artifacts were very precious to others, but in the eyes of Xu Que, who had the Acting Cool System, they didn't count for much.

And he could also tell that this necklace was very important to the Empress; after all, it was an eight-star dharma artifact, and it might have other special meanings, otherwise she wouldn't have been wearing it close to her body all the time.

"Accept it!" The Empress smiled slightly, beautiful enough to topple cities, and turned to walk toward the table.

Xu Que was dumbfounded, had no choice but to nod and accept it, and then continued to cross his legs, sitting in his original position without moving.

The Empress had already started brewing tea, her beautiful eyes lifted slightly, looking at Xu Que: "Come and have a cup of tea?"

"Not drinking!"

The Empress felt Xu Que was even stranger, pouring a cup of tea: "Have a cup?"

Xu Que shook his head: "You drink first!"

The Empress asked curiously: "Why? Are you afraid I'll poison it?"

Xu Que shook his head again: "No!"

She asked curiously: "Then why not drink?"

Xu Que rolled his eyes and said with a straight face: "Can't drink, I have to drive later!"

"En?" The Empress was instantly stunned.

This word 'drive' made her instantly think of the scene when Xu Que taught her to drive an excavator in the Fire Yuan Kingdom.

But at this moment, she couldn't figure out what drinking tea had to do with driving!

However, she wouldn't think too much about things she couldn't figure out, just feeling that Xu Que was a bit strange today, but nothing else.

After being silent for a while, the Empress raised her teacup, took a small sip, and looked at Xu Que again: "Little guy, when will your Heavenly Tribulation arrive?"

Xu Que crossed his legs again, counted with his fingers: "Calculating the time, it should be tomorrow!"

"En, go to the Altar of Heaven to cross the tribulation tomorrow, there is a magic array there to protect you, which can weaken the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, it is an excellent place to cross the tribulation! You have already crossed the Four-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, and the power of this Five-Nine Heavenly Tribulation will be relatively large, but you don't need to be too nervous, I will watch under the Altar of Heaven, if there is any accident, I will keep you safe!" The Empress nodded and said solemnly.

When Xu Que heard this, he frowned instantly.

Weaken the power of the Heavenly Tribulation? This won't do, if the Heavenly Tribulation is weakened, how can he use the Pluto Prison Suppression Body to temper his body? How can he continue to cultivate Monkey Sai Lei?

No, no, must change the place.

Immediately, he looked at the Empress and asked: "Since there is the best place to cross the tribulation, there must also be the most dangerous place to cross the tribulation, right? Where is it?"

The Empress didn't think too much, and replied with a faint smile: "The most dangerous place to cross the tribulation is undoubtedly the Imperial Tomb! It buried past emperors, all of whom were strong, plus the location of the dragon vein, the aura will cause the Heavenly Tribulation to become more violent."

After Xu Que finished listening, he was overjoyed, slapped his thigh and said: "Great, go to the Imperial Tomb to cross the tribulation tomorrow!"

【Sorry, the update is late! I was outside all day today, talking to a lawyer about that matter in Dali, maybe there will be a lawsuit, but it won't have any impact, lawsuits don't require personal appearance! After all, with my status as the King of Acting Cool, how can I just go to court? Right, what if I can't run away after acting cool? What if some beautiful lawyer comes and mistakes me for Wu Yanzu, that would be even worse! Sigh! Melancholy!】
