Chapter 60 Supreme Fortune
Behanha has been utterly defeated!
"How is this possible!"
The little prince Numochitian exclaimed in surprise, his face filled with disbelief!
Bei Han Ha Jue has been a cultivator for a long time, and his realm is higher than Lin Ruobing's, yet he was defeated?
We won!
"Great!"
"Lin Ruobing is invincible!"
On the Dali side, everyone was instantly overjoyed and stood up, creating a lively and excited atmosphere!
"Defeating a Qi Refining Level Two cultivator with a Qi Refining Level One cultivator..."
Granny Mu gripped her wooden cane tightly, her face extremely grim.
Lin Ruobing was a major enemy of their Taiyi Sect, but now she has left Shangguan Xiaoxiao far behind!
An unprecedented pressure suddenly struck!
"So strong."
The bitterness of suffering, the twin swords of the sun and moon, and so on, all evoked deep emotions.
"it is good!"
At the head of the table, Emperor Xianxian stood up, his face full of satisfaction, and said, "By imperial decree, Miss Lin Ruobing is hereby honored as the Great Li Immortal Master!"
Master Dali.
Everyone had complex expressions, but they all understood the significance of those four words!
This was a title that Dali had never held before.
Moreover, Emperor Xianxian used the word "honored" instead of "bestowed".
The transcendent status of cultivators is undeniable.
"Guards, prepare a banquet in the palace. I wish to host a feast for Master Lin tonight!"
Emperor Xianxian waved his hand, his eyes filled with fervent anticipation.
Having spent his life seeking immortality, how could he not be excited now that a cultivator had finally appeared in Dali?
He himself is now trying to cultivate, but it is extremely difficult and he has made no progress for a long time. If he could ask him for advice in person, he would definitely benefit greatly!
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lin Ruobing also gave a slight bow.
"Your Majesty, now that we have won the contest, the Northern Hu delegation should hand over the stakes they promised."
Li Lan stepped forward.
Emperor Xianxian nodded and looked at the little prince.
The little prince helped Bei Han Ha Jue up, his face extremely pale and troubled!
According to the plan, the Xuan Nu Yin Marrow they brought would eventually be obtained by Lin Ruoxue through a competition. Lin Ruoxue would then hand it over to Li Guan to help him break through the True Dragon Technique and thus guide the Immortal Realm to descend.
But now... Lin Ruobing is going to snatch this thing away?
This could affect our future plans!
"What? Do you intend to go back on your word regarding this matter between our two countries?!"
Emperor Xianxian said coldly.
Immediately, the guards around them were all on edge, ready to attack at any moment. If they gave the order, the little prince and his party would surely be turned into mincemeat!
"We, the Northern Hu... keep our word!"
The little prince looked grim, but could only grit his teeth and speak, waving his hand.
Immediately, the Northern Hu delegation brought in boxes one by one.
These boxes are all made of white jade, and the boxes themselves are priceless.
The box was opened, and inside were two kinds of spiritual items: Azure Cloud Fruit and White Bone Flower!
The Qingyun fruit is crystal clear, as clear as clusters of green clouds, and its quality is already excellent. The Baigu flower is even more like a small lotus flower, pure white and flawless, with light petals, as if surrounded by white mist!
The most astonishing thing was a jade bottle. When the little prince opened the stopper, a chilling aura immediately spread out. There were no fewer than a thousand people in the room, but at that moment, they all shivered!
The Yin Marrow of the Mysterious Woman!
This is the yin marrow nurtured by a female corpse who had achieved great cultivation; it can be called a rare treasure in the world.
"Guards, collect all the spiritual items and store them in the treasury. Five catties of Xuan Nu Yin Marrow, White Bone Flower, and ten catties of Qingyun Fruit are to be presented to Immortal Master Lin!"
Emperor Xianxian spoke.
As previously stated, if he won, he would give Lin Ruobing ten catties of Xuan Nu Yin Marrow and Qingyun Fruit, but now, he directly added five catties of White Bone Flower!
Five catties of white bone flower is worth the same as twenty-five catties of green cloud fruit!
"Father, you mustn't!"
At this moment, Li Guan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The Yin Marrow of the Mysterious Maiden belongs to your son and cannot be bestowed upon others!"
This thing is very important to him.
"With this item, I am confident that I can master the True Dragon Technique and pave the way to immortality within three months!"
He spoke directly.
Emperor Xianxian frowned slightly and began to ponder.
In the past, he would never have hesitated to hand this over to Li Guan, but now, Lin Ruobing is a cultivator, and her status is different!
"Your Majesty, this item is indeed not suitable for the Queen of Annam."
At this moment, a clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out, and a beautiful figure stepped into the arena. Everyone turned around and saw that it was Lin Ruoxue!
Her late arrival drew everyone's attention.
"Thanks to His Majesty's favor, Ruoxue has already broken through to the first level of Qi Refining, hence my late arrival. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Lin Ruoxue spoke calmly, and at the same time raised her hand and pointed, a burst of energy shot out, shattering the stone lion head behind the Northern Hu Prince Numo Chitian and the Northern Han Hajue into powder!
"Bei Han Ha Jue, how does this technique compare to yours?"
She asked casually, while Bei Han Ha Jue's face turned extremely ugly as he said, "This technique is stronger than mine. Not to mention me, even Lin Ruobing is no match for you."
Upon seeing this, everyone present was greatly shocked!
Lin Ruoxue has also become a cultivator?
Moreover, they are so assertive!
For a moment, everyone felt a mix of emotions, and even the most talented individuals, such as Kujue and the Twin Swords of the Sun and Moon, felt extremely lost and depressed...
They have always been seen as geniuses by the world.
But now, in front of the Lin sisters, they truly seem to have become insignificant dust!
The heartache and disappointment are indescribable.
Li Guan was overjoyed upon seeing this!
"Yes, Father, Master Lin has also become an Immortal Master. This Mysterious Maiden's Essence should be given to me!"
Emperor Xianxian pondered, finding himself in a difficult position.
Lin Ruobing, meanwhile, was looking at her sister with her beautiful eyes filled with doubt, her lips tightly pursed, and a hint of self-reproach in her eyes.
She didn't blame her sister for being so heartless as to try to take her things; instead, she instantly realized that she was the one who had delayed her sister's plans.
"Your Majesty,"
At this moment, Li Lan spoke again, saying, "The King and Queen of Annam are willing to present the Mysterious Maiden's Essence to His Highness Li Guan!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
The struggle between Li Guan and Li Yue over the True Dragon Skill is so intense that not an inch can be yielded. How can such a crucial item be easily given up?
Emperor Xianxian was also intrigued: "Is what you say true, my dear minister?"
Li Lan smiled slightly and nodded: "However, the Prince of Annam has a request, and I ask that Your Majesty grant it!"
Emperor Xianxian asked, "What is it?"
Li Lan glanced at Li Yue, who took a deep breath and stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to grant a three-year tax exemption for the entire nation, so that displaced people may return home and starving people may find peace!"
Tax-free for three years!
Upon hearing this, all the ministers were taken aback.
"If the government is exempt from taxes for three years, what will it eat?"
"Yes, without taxes, is the imperial court just going to sit around and do nothing?"
Many people shook their heads.
"Using your own Xuan Nu Yin Marrow to exchange for three years of tax exemption for the whole world? Foolish!"
"Hehe, I heard that the Prince of Annam is implementing some ten new policies in Ning'an. Now it seems that he has been misled by Li Lan!"
Some people were even more sarcastic.
Only Zhu Xianchou, standing beside Li Guan, had a complex expression, sighed softly, and showed unparalleled respect in his eyes.
Lin Ruoxue glanced at Li Lan. This was the first time she had looked at Li Lan directly. Her beautiful eyes were filled with unprecedented confusion, as well as a hint of... curiosity.
She couldn't understand it either.
"Excellent, excellent! The King of Annam's request is of great merit!"
From the crowd, the monk Kujue suddenly spoke. Although he was standing behind Li Guan, he bowed to Li Yue with great sincerity and said, "Your Highness is kind-hearted. This humble monk will stay at Duli Temple to burn incense and pray for Your Highness's well-being!"
Several martial artists around instinctively distanced themselves from the monk Kujue, feeling that he was incredibly tactless, praising Li Yue in front of Li Guan with a complete lack of emotional intelligence.
Emperor Xianxian frowned slightly. Taxes were the lifeblood of the court, and with the national treasury empty, they could not be cut off... But then he thought, if Li Guan obtained the Mysterious Maiden's Yin Marrow, he could master the True Dragon Technique and open the path to immortality in three months!
At that time, he will be able to enter the Immortal Realm. He will not care about the common people or the imperial court in this Abyss Realm!
After I become an immortal, I won't care about the raging floods!
"I grant your permission!"
He spoke directly.
make a deal!
……
On the day.
When the news spread, the whole world was in an uproar!
"The Lin family's twin beauties have both entered the ranks of cultivators!"
"General Lin Zheng, who protects the nation, truly has two wonderful daughters!"
"The dignity of our Great Li was almost lost!"
It's a hot topic of discussion.
Meanwhile, news of a three-year tax exemption also reached ordinary people's homes!
Upon hearing this news, people throughout Kyoto were overjoyed. In the streets and alleys, young and old alike were celebrating!
"The King of Annam truly cares for the common people!"
"The Prince of Annam could have competed with the Third Prince for the position of Crown Prince, but now he has no chance!"
"King of Annam, King of Annam, your merits are complete and your life is long. You have reduced taxes and abdicated the throne. We, the people, return to our homeland with joy..."
Le Viet's fame spread far and wide, and children's songs praised it endlessly, winning the hearts of the people!
In the past, anyone who dared to win over the people's hearts in this way would have been charged with treason. But now, the entire government and the public are misled by the talk of immortals, and no one cares anymore.
Wherever the King of Annam's carriage went, countless people flocked to it, offering various gifts and kneeling to kowtow in gratitude!
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"King of Annam, you have saved our lives!"
“Your Majesty, this is a small token of our appreciation; please accept it…”
The scene was incredibly lively, and the people wept. Li Yue, who had grown up in the deep palace, had never seen such a magnificent sight before. He was also deeply moved and his eyes were filled with tears.
"Teacher, I finally understand that the will of the common people is the destiny of the world!"
She spoke deeply.
She felt that the humanitarian fortune she had accumulated had reached an unprecedented level!
Originally, compared to many emperors throughout history, what she did might not be considered a world-shaking feat. However, with the world in utter chaos and people having nowhere to turn, she easily won the hearts of the people, as if taking something out of a bag!
She felt that... mastering the True Dragon Technique now would be as natural as water flowing into a channel!
She admired him even more. Li Lan had not only exchanged three years of tax exemption for the Xuan Nu Yin Marrow, but had also obtained the strongest fortune in the world for her!
Li Lan smiled slightly and said, "Bearing the fate of the world on your shoulders is no easy task. The road ahead is long and arduous, and all the people of the world are hoping that you can make a difference."
Li Yue nodded emphatically. During this time with Li Lan, her understanding and values had truly undergone earth-shattering changes.
"Li Yue, who has received the mandate of heaven, should strive for peace and prosperity for all people!"
She whispered to herself!
……
That night, Emperor Xianxian hosted a banquet for the two immortal masters in the palace!
With officials in attendance, the atmosphere was lively and bustling.
Li Lan found a secluded corner, took a pot of Qingyun wine, and drank it alone.
"I heard you like to drink Qingyun wine?"
Suddenly, a clear and melodious voice rang out.
Lin Ruoxue had somehow appeared beside him, possessing a stunningly beautiful face like Lin Ruobing, but with an ethereal and distant air, as if she didn't belong to this world. She said:
"You, too, can cultivate immortality, is that right?"
……
