Chapter 40: Half of the Country

Lin Xiaocha sat in front of Tianyu's Eye and looked at the scene inside the mirror carefully. She sighed in her heart. If there were melon seeds, it would be even better.

When the seven spiritual stones burst into the sky into million pieces, she felt that the broken stones were about to bounce on her face, just like watching a 3D movie.

She was so scared that when she was about to retreat, but Tianyu's eyes suddenly turned into a blank screen. A wisp of blue smoke appeared from above, just like a short-circuited TV.

Then the mirror surface turned into a shimmering water ripple.

Lin Xiaocha: ...

So powerful?

Around this time, in the other sects, new disciples were still orderly testing their spiritual roots. A young man put his hand on the spirit stone in the magic sect and saw that the spirit stone suddenly burst into flames, emitting a dazzling red color.

Boy: "What kind of light is this? Could it be that I have the legendary heavenly root! A shocking wizard that appears once in a thousand years! Hahahahahaha! Hey? How come it went out?"

However, it was not only the magic sect. The sword sect, medicine sect, musical sect's measuring spirit stones all glowed red at the same time and then went out instantly.

They seemed to be affected by something.

Suddenly, the entire Tianyu Mountain shook.

Everyone above it fell to the ground.

"What's the matter? What's the matter?"

Then, they saw the flames on the Yuling platform.

The spirit beasts of the disciples of the Royal Beast Sect seemed to be out of control. They all roaring at the Yuling platform.

The peacocks of Feng Feiyao, the white eagles of Bai Xuanran, and other spirit birds hovered and cried towards the Yuling platform.

The scene was shocking and spectacular.

Tianyu Mountain saw such a sight for the first time in thousands of years.

The spectacle alarmed everyone in Tianyu Mountain. Several elders invariably took out their own magical weapons and flew to the Yuling platform.

The spiritual test stones of the Royal Beast sect were very special. Unlike other sects, there were only these seven pieces in the world, but it was now shattered...

If it weren't for Bai Xuanran and other disciples to support Feng Feiyao on the Yuling Platform, she would have fainted.

All seven elders gathered at the Yuling platform at the same time.

The other six watched as the second elder, Han Yu, who was unstained, stood in the middle of the red light of the sky, with red gravel floating around him.

He looked quiet and calm, like an ice lotus blooming in flames.

What was the red light just now?

How can there be such a bright fire?

Then they saw Han Yu slowly coming over, without any intention to explain what happened just now.

Jiang Chengzi sighed in his heart. He could only stand up and clean up the chaotic situation.

He cleared his throat and then coughed twice, "It seems that these seven spiritual stones are really broken."

The other elders looked at Jiang Chengzi while frowning and felt that this reason was inevitably far-fetched.

Feng Feiyao's teeth rattled.

The disciples on the Yuling platform looked at each other. There were so many things that have happened today, which makes people totally puzzled.

Jiang Chengzi touched his beard solemnly and said leisurely, "Everything in the world gets old. Even the sea can become a mulberry field eventually. It seems that this Royal Beast sect's spiritual stones are not exempt from this law."

After that, he sighed. Then he touched his beard and shook his head, looking very sorry and helpless.

The implication was that these seven measuring spiritual stones were actually broken.

Feng Feiyao's mouth trembled with anger, but she couldn't refute it because there was no more reasonable explanation.

Otherwise, how could Han Yu, who didn't even have a spirit beast, light up the spiritual measuring stone of the Royal Beast Sect?

And just now, the light attribute was fire, but Han Yu's attribute was ice, which was the most incompatible with fire.

Everyone started whispering, "The head has spoken. It seems that the spiritual stones are really broken."

"Then that girl's seven-color light was probably also a problem?"

"That must be! How could it be there is an existence comparable to Her Majesty, the Empress, and her Phoenix?"

Now even Feng Feiyao feels a little confused. Is it true as they said? The spiritual stones are broken?

And that little vixen really only has a duck egg in her hands?

Feng Ziying and Jin Zhifeng also didn't know why they saw a bright red light.

Feng Ziying finally calmed down the panther who was screaming at the platform.

"Unexpectedly, this imperial beast sect's measuring spirit stones are so broken." He didn't know whether it was regret or wishing to see the world burn.

Jin Zhifeng is a sword cultivator. Although he was shocked by everything that happened, he didn't know much about the Royal Beast sect. In his understanding, the Royal Beast sect measuring spirit stone was nothing unique.

"Why does Xianjun Shang look for us?" Jin Zhifeng looked at the man in white clothes in front of them.

Shang Yuan stood with his hand on his back faced the Yuling platform that was full of flames. His white robe was dyed into a flirtatious red.

Because of Lin Xiaocha, the three of them already had some disputes. Jin Zhifeng couldn't understand what Shang Yuan intended by bringing the three of them together.

But they heard Shang Yuan said, "What do you think the Empress would feel about everything in the Yuling platform today?"

Feng Ziying stroked the smooth fur of the black panther beside him, and the corners of his mouth were full of mockery, "What? I thought Xianjun Shang did not care about the mortal world? Why do you care about the royal family?"

Feng Ziying said so, but he knew what Shang Yuan meant.

Jin Zhifeng was born in the whirlpool of power. He listened to the people every day and naturally understood what Shang Yuan wanted to say.

What did Lin Xiaocha's seven golden lights represent today?

Feng Nanfei, who the Phoenix selected, was like a demigod.

God granted her divine power.

And Lin Xiaocha overwhelmed Feng Nanfei's limelight in the Yuling platform today.

Although the appearance of Han Yu later turned everything around.

However, Han Yu has nothing to do with the mortal world. Everyone knew this, and he couldn't threaten Feng Nanfei's rule.

But Lin Xiaocha was unknown to Feng Nanfei.

With Feng Nanfei's character, she would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.

If the egg was really something extraordinary, it would not be an exaggeration for the Empress to make a fuss about Lin Xiaocha threatening her dominance.

Jin Zhifeng knew this in his heart but said, "Didn't the head say that the measuring spirit stone was broken?"

Shang Yuan chuckled lightly.

It seemed impossible for the two of them to speak first. He turned around, his eyes were shining red.

"Shang Yuan just wanted to ask two young masters to help Miss Lin."

Jin Zhifeng frowned. "What is the relationship between you and Xiaocha?"

Shang Yuan smiled. "I won't hide it from you two. Shang Yuan does have something with Miss Lin. However, this is a long story. Besides, it doesn't matter at present."

Shang Yuan looked at the two, who were still silent.

"Then Shang Yuan will say straight to the point. Today's affairs on the Yuling platform will make Her Majesty uneasy. Her Majesty will not come to embarrass a little girl herself. Moreover, Miss Lin is with the second elder. The Empress always respects the second elder."

He said intermittently. He meant that even if Feng Nanfei did not challenge Lin Xiaocha openly, it would be possible to solve her secretly.

Feng Ziying sneered, "You are so bold. You criticize the current Empress in front of me."

Shang Yuan didn't listen to him. In his last life, out of Feng Nanfei's twelve cities, Feng Ziying's Dongling City surrendered first.

Although Feng Nanfei was quite fond of Feng Ziying, her son Feng Zeyan hated Feng Ziying very much.

Feng Ziying was worried that Feng Zeyan would attack him after he succeeded the throne, so his loyalty to Feng Nanfei's regime was not as high as it seemed.

But Feng Ziying hid it so well that outsiders could not see it at all.

Shang Yuan said, "Your Majesty could easily use public opinion to create rumors. If the people say that Miss Lin is a demon girl, and the destruction of the spiritual stones today is a sign that natural disasters will follow, what do you think will happen?"

Feng Ziying did not make any expression, but Jin Zhifeng clenched his fists.

At that time, there would be no need for the Empress to take action. Lin Xiaocha will be drowned by saliva and could never turn over.

The Empress is best at killing people without being seen.

Even if they kept Xiaocha's life at that time, she would still bear the name of a demon girl. It would be difficult for her to walk in the world.

Feng Ziying smiled, "Xiangjun Shang wants to attack preemptively?"

Shang Yuan smiled without saying a word.

Jin Zhifeng immediately understood.

The Empress could make rumors, and so can they.

Moreover, in the twelve cities of Zhu Yun Kingdom, each City Lord had great power. It was much easier for them to create rumors in their own city than the Empress.

If the Empress wanted to say that Lin Xiaocha was a scourge of a demon, they would say that she was a blessing and auspicious.

Feng Ziying yawned, "I don't understand what you said, but Xiaocha has gained the popular opinion in Dongling City. If people say she is good, how can I stop it?"

He agreed with this baseless remark, not because Shang Yuan said it, but because he had a plan in his heart. Secondly, he felt that he really liked Lin Xiaocha and didn't want to make her feel sad, or worse, die.

Jin Zhifeng said, "She rescued us, brother and sister. She is in trouble, and I have to help her. If the Empress blamed us, it has nothing to do with my parents and my sister. I, Jin Zhifeng, will bear it alone."

Jin Zhifeng said again, "The rumors from Dongling City can affect the three cities in the north, and Jinjue City can affect the three cities in the west. That would be half of Zhu Yun country. It could barely compete with Her Majesty the Empress."

At this time, Shang Yuan had an elusive smile.

More than half.

That old fox, Lin Yishan, probably already started to act the moment he knew what was happening on the Yuling platform.

Banxia City, which is the heart of the southern three cities, can affect the south.

When the time comes, he will use his own power to add fuel to these rumors, and Zhu Yun country would have the news that his darling Wuer is the person newly selected by Vermillion Bird.

He was really curious about what Feng Nanfei would look like when he knew that most Zhu Yun country was saying that another woman was the newly chosen person?

At that time, when Wu'er became popular among the people, and if he got Wu'er, he would also win the people's will.

In his previous life, he worked step by step to break through the defense lines of the Twelve Cities. It took a lot of effort to pry. But this life has become so smooth because of Wu'er...

He did not expect that in this rebirth, God really favored him.

The three of them didn't know that Han Yu, not far away, listened to their conversation word by word.

His expression was faint.

And Lin Xiaocha didn't even know that she was involved in the vortex of Zhu Yun country's political struggle.

Compared to them, her wish seemed unpretentious.

She really just wanted to take away her 100 million in peace.

Of course, if conditions permit, she wanted to take a little bit more.

Even an extra five thousand yuan was not too small for her.

But where she was right now was like a desert far away from the ocean.

In the entire Shanhai peak, there was only the intelligent robot, which is worthless for her.

She felt that her life was slowly drying up in this desert.

But her Dandan made her have to stay here.

If there is no life and death agreement, she would be the first person to cook it and eat it.

Thinking of this, she took it out, but after all, after two years of getting along with it, when she looked at the bare egg, she couldn't help but touch it lovingly.

"Baby, hurry up and let your mother see what a real dragon looks like." In the corner of her eyes, she saw the gently floating white robe coming towards her.

She stood up, holding the egg, and softly called, "Xianjun."

Han Yu looked at the petite girl in his spacious room.

Just like two years ago, she filled his room with life.

The frost and snow in Han Yu's eyes began to melt.

He replied indifferently.

Lin Xiaocha obediently offered him a glass of water. She looked for it, but she didn't find any tea in Han Yu's room.

And Xiangming said he didn't know what tea was.

A robot named "fragrant tea" did not know what tea is?

Its business ability was really bad.

"Xianjun, thank you for today."

She was always like this. Even if she babbles unintentionally, her voice was delicate and sticky.

It made people feel stunned.

Han Yu still gave a faint hum, but he held her hand when he took the teacup.

The cold and moist touch made her feel aroused in an instant.

But she was still sober and stable, pretending that nothing happened.

Unsure of the reason, she pulled her hand out of his hand.

But she didn't expect that he didn't mean to let her go.

Her heart began beating irregularly, and she carefully raised her head to look at Han Yu's eyes.

Han Yu looked downward at her. His glazed eyes were very calm, but Lin Xiaocha was a little flustered.

She tensed when she saw the clean and unwrinkled big bed behind him from the corner of her eye.

The atmosphere was inexplicably ambiguous.

The scent of pine needles and snow from him made her dare not breathe.

She bit her lower lip habitually.

"Don't bite your lip." Han Yu's quiet voice became a little dull, and with his innate sense of coercion, Lin Xiaocha's body tightened even more.

Her apricot eyes were also instantly stained with mist as if water was about to burst out, and there were two blushes on her face.

Without her childishness, she couldn't hide the charming woman in her bones. This was her natural beauty.

In the eyes of a man, such a pitiful and shy look aroused desire that couldn't be refused.

Han Yu remained silent.

The whole room seemed to have only Han Yu's even breathing and Lin Xiaocha's sudden panting.

Her body, between her breath, exuded the scent of tea that made him obsessed.

"Nervous?" Han Yu asked.

He didn't know what he was feeling. Her nervousness and shyness aroused his desire for protection, but it also made him a little disappointed.

She was not like this two years ago.

Lin Xiaocha noticed that his hand was loose and hurriedly took out her hand.

"Xianjun. I found that I could only pour you water. By the way, where did your tea go?" She turned the subject off.

Han Yu's brows folded slightly, and her voice became faint, "No tea."

"Oh, oh, alright. It's really unexpected." With a decent smile on her face, she stepped back a few steps.

After that, she was going to leave, but the entire Shanhai peak belonged to him when she thought about it. Where could she go?

So she smiled and said, "Xianjun, when should I worship you as a teacher?"

Han Yu was different from Shang Yuan. Shang Yuan was a modest gentleman on the surface, but he never paid much attention to etiquette on the inside. The relationship between teacher and apprentice was nothing in his eyes.

But Han Yu was a normal person. If she had become his apprentice, it could be regarded to cut off his thoughts.

Sure enough, Han Yu's eyes were like ice again.

"I never prepared to accept you as a disciple."

"But, you said you want to teach me the art of controlling beasts." Her face was pretending to be innocent.

"We don't have to be a master and apprentice for me to teach you."

"But Xiaocha doesn't want to be anonymous. Would you take Xiaocha as a disciple?"

She still acted as she did before, but instead of pulling in, she pushed him away.

He glanced at Lin Xiaocha and walked away.

Lin Xiaocha breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiangming guarding in front of the study room, panicked for the first time. As a puppet, he felt the raging but restrained anger on his master.

He dare not to go in to serve tea and pour water.

Han Yu pressed his temple with his hand.

This was the first time he felt this kind of powerlessness, the first time he felt regret.

He regretted that when she cried and asked him if he could like her two years ago, he didn't say yes.
