“Princess Cang Yue…she is actually…Princess Cang Yue…” Yun Che muttered in a daze. As a citizen of the Blue Wind Empire, Yun Che would certainly know the name Princess Cang Yue. The current Cangfeng Emperor Cang Wanhe has seven sons and one daughter. The crown prince is “Prince Canglong” Cang Lin, and his only daughter is “Princess Cangyue” Cang Yue. When he was young, the emperor and the princess were legendary beings. Although he and Xiao Lingxi often fantasized about what the emperor and princess would be like, they never thought that one day they would come into contact with them.

As a boy, I always have a special fantasy about “princess”, because the title “princess” symbolizes nobility, elegance, and beauty, and is the most perfect and noble woman in the world. Yun Che never expected that Lan Xueruo would be the Princess Cang Yue whom he, like many men, had longed for and fantasized about countless times when he was a child.

He was sure that Lan Xueruo’s status must be extremely noble, but he never thought of her as a “princess”. Because the princess was born in the royal family and was the only daughter of the emperor, she was bound to be very delicate and domineering, but there was no trace of these in Lan Xueruo, only gentleness and kindness. She is so kind to everyone, never arrogant, and never discriminates or looks down on anyone. When she sees other people in trouble, she will immediately want to help… These temperaments are in line with his heart The image of Princess Cang Yue is completely different. Basically, she is more peaceful and approachable than other women from official families.

She is Princess Cang Yue…and she is just a wanderer from a small Liuyun City with no background, no power, and no relatives. Why did she treat herself like that in the first place?

“Since she is Princess Cang Yue, why was she in Crescent City at that time?” Yun Che said in a daze.

Qin Wuyou did not answer him directly, but asked: “Yun Che, do you know the current status of the Blue Wind royal family?”

Yun Che thought for a while and nodded slightly: “I know something about it. Senior Brother Sikong briefly told Shuo before. It seems that the emperor is seriously ill, and the prince Cang Lin and the third prince Cang Shuo are secretly preparing to compete for the position of the next emperor. , and hooked up with Xiao Sect and Burning Heaven Clan respectively.”

Speaking of this, Yun Che felt a knot in his heart. The emperor was seriously ill… No wonder there was always such deep sadness hidden in the depths of her eyes, that’s why.

“That’s right.” Qin Wuyou nodded, and then explained in detail.

“About three years ago, the emperor suddenly became seriously ill and couldn’t afford to fall ill. The imperial doctors in the palace were helpless. Later, I invited Gu Qiuhong, the recognized first genius doctor in the Blue Wind Empire, to diagnose and treat the emperor, and the conclusion was drawn: The emperor had worked too hard over the years, and his whole body was already covered with hidden diseases. He was infected with wind and cold that time, which caused all the hidden diseases to break out and damage his lifeblood. As a result, his vitality became extremely weak. The lifeline was damaged and there was no cure. There is no other way to replenish your body with great nourishment day and night.”

“Years of hidden disease? Injured lifeblood?” Yun Che’s brows suddenly furrowed. Is there such a disease?

“Later, dozens of famous doctors from all over the country were invited, and they concluded that the emperor was not sick at all, but was just inexplicably weak. These conclusions all pointed to the truth of what the miracle doctor Gu Qiuhong said. And Gu Qiuhong also said that there is no cure for damage to the lifeblood. If he is properly nursed back to health, the emperor can live for up to five years. As the top doctor in the Blue Wind Empire, Gu Qiuhong has never lied about his medical skills, but now that has passed. It has been three years, which means that the emperor’s remaining life span is only two years at most. Last month, my brother went to the palace to meet with the emperor. He came back and said that the emperor’s complexion was extremely poor and his breath was weak. It’s hard to say whether it can last for two years.”

Yun Che: “…”

“Ever since the emperor’s lifeline was damaged and he became bedridden, the royal family was filled with smoke. The prince Cang Lin began to make subtle suggestions for the emperor to pass the throne to him as soon as possible, and the third prince Cang Shuo had been coveting the throne for a long time. The two of them At first, there were just various secret fights, but as the struggle escalated, it turned into an open fight that everyone in Blue Wind Imperial City knew. The crown prince had the support of the second prince and the seventh prince, while the third prince had the support of the fourth prince, the fifth prince, and the sixth prince. With the support of the prince, the two used various means to win over the forces in the DPRK, and even gradually eroded the emperor’s core power. The two sides have always been evenly matched, and neither one can completely overpower the other.”

“Originally, this kind of struggle for the throne was normal within the royal family. Almost every new emperor would have such a prelude before he succeeded. The emperor had always let it go, but what no one expected was that the prince Cang Lin In order to suppress the power of the third prince Cang Shuo, he actually borrowed the power of the Xiao Sect. In order to compete with him, the third prince Cang Shuo also borrowed the power of the Burning Heaven Clan.”

“Alas.” Qin Wuyou let out a long sigh and said, “The Xiao Sect and Burning Heaven Clan have always had hidden ambitions and coveted the power to control the world. The royal family has been careful to deal with them over the years. In addition, the royal family has good relations with Tianjian Villa, and due to the constraints of Tianjian Villa, Xiao Sect and Fentian Clan do not dare to really seize the royal family’s power. However, they are completely different from the imperial family actively borrowing their power. concept. In the latter case, they can infiltrate their influence into the royal family bit by bit through Cang Lin or Cang Shuo. At that time, although the royal family will still have the surname Cang, the sovereignty will be controlled by Xiao Sect or Fentian Clan, even if it is Tianjian. Villa, nothing can be said.”

“If you put it this way, it is more likely that Xiao Sect and Burning Heaven Clan will take the initiative to seduce Cang Lin and Cang Shuo.” Yun Che said calmly.

“That’s right.” Qin Wuyou nodded: “The emperor was furious when he knew all this, but it was too late, because at that time, both the prince Cang Lin and the third prince Cang Shuo had already lost their power. All over the imperial court, even if he is their father, he can no longer be shaken by force, not to mention the secret support of Xiao Sect and Burning Heaven Clan on both sides. Even if it weren’t for the emperor’s deep-rooted core forces and the protection of Tianjian Villa. , Prince Cang Lin and Third Prince Cang Shuo may have forced him to step down from the throne.”

Speaking of this, Qin Wuyou’s face was filled with anger. After he calmed down, a distressed expression appeared on his face again: “In recent years, Prince Cang Lin and Third Prince Cang Shuo have become the protagonists of the royal family, while the emperor has been lying in the palace all year round and has been almost forgotten. The emperor’s seventh son Among the girls, in the end, the only one who truly cared about him and stayed with him was the only daughter, Princess Cang Yue. Alas… the past three years had been really **** her. She is just a girl, without any power or threat. Otherwise, she might have been secretly persecuted by the prince and the third prince, alas.”

“She wants to stop the crown prince and the third prince from luring wolves into the house?” Yun Che asked with a frown.

“She tried, but gave up because it was impossible to stop her.” Qin Wuyou shook his head sadly: “In this battle, our Blue Wind Xuanfu stands on a neutral ground and is only loyal to the emperor. One person, at the same time, has become Princess Cang Yue’s only backing. However, the wishes of the disciples are beyond our control. Most of the one hundred disciples in the inner palace have been won over by Prince Cang Lin and Third Prince Cang Shuo. His subordinates include Feng Bufan, who is ranked second in the Tianxuan Ranking, and Fang Feilong, who is ranked third.”

“Princess Cang Yue, who knew that her power was low and could not stop the ambitions of the crown prince and the third prince, has always been with the emperor. Two years ago, in order to satisfy the emperor’s regret, she joined as ‘Lan Xueruo’ After entering the Cangfeng Profound Palace, she left a month later, and then left the imperial city, traveling to various branches of the Profound Palace in the country, looking for someone who could help her father fulfill his wish.”

Having said this, Qin Wuyou looked at Yun Che intently.

“Am I the person she is looking for?” Yun Che said, with no expression on his face: “What is her father’s wish? Why did you choose me? Why do you think I can help her father realize this? Wishes? ”

“Blue Wind Ranking Battle.” Qin Wuyou said five words calmly.

These five words made Yun Che’s heart suddenly shake, and he blurted out: “Could it be…”

“Alas~~” Qin Wuyou sighed again. When he mentioned the “Blue Wind Ranking Battle”, his face became very sad. He stood up, walked to the bamboo window with his hands behind his back, and slowly Said: “Speaking of Blue Wind Profound Palace, no one knows that it was established by our Blue Wind Imperial Family. It is the largest Profound Palace in the entire Blue Wind Empire and is the dream place for countless young profound practitioners to cultivate mysteries. However, there are many sects in the Blue Wind Empire. , there are countless powerful people, but in the eyes of those major sects, my Blue Wind Profound Palace is nothing more than a joke.”

“The Blue Wind Ranking Tournament was originally held once every ten years, but was later reduced to once every five years, and a hundred years ago, it was further reduced to once every three years. From the first Blue Wind Ranking Tournament to the end, it has been exactly ninety Nine times. As the core of the country’s political power, the Cangfeng royal family will naturally be invited every time. However, in the past ninety-nine times, no one from the Cangfeng royal family has been able to enter the top one hundred, never before! What a joke and humiliation. But when the current emperor ascended the throne, his greatest wish was to see the Blue Wind royal family enter the top 100 in the Blue Wind Ranking Competition during his reign… It has only been nearly twenty years since he took the throne. After six Cangfeng ranking competitions, this wish has never been realized. Now that his life is about to expire, this has become a lifelong regret. In order to help him realize this wish before the emperor’s death, Princess Cang Yue left the royal family and searched for him. After two years, she chose you as a genius who can represent the royal family and win the top 100.”

“…So…that’s it.”

He finally solved the mystery of why Lan Xueruo was so kind to him and even risked huge risks to save him. He couldn’t tell how he felt when he learned the truth.

“The Cangfeng royal family has a special mysterious skill called the ‘Emperor’s Heart Technique’. Only those with royal blood and pure hearts can practice it. Among the seven princes and one princess, Princess Cang Yue is the only one who has mastered the ‘Emperor’s Heart Technique’ People who use the ‘Emperor’s Heart’ can peek into a person’s destiny and luck to a certain extent. Princess Cang Yue must have seen the extraordinary fate and luck in you through the ‘Emperor’s Heart’ , coupled with your amazing performance in New Moon Profound Palace, I chose you without hesitation.”

Yun Che: “…”

“Now, do you understand what I mean by ‘enlightenment’?” Qin Wuyou turned around and said meaningfully.

“I basically understand. At least, for her, I will represent the royal family to participate in the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament.” Yun Che’s expression was dull, and he didn’t know what he was thinking.

“No, this alone is not enough to be considered an enlightenment. After all, participating in the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament only involves success or failure, not life or death.” Qin Wuyou continued: “Two years ago, Princess Cang Yue The reason why I left the Imperial City was to find the right person, but the more important reason was… to escape from a terrible person.”

“Who?” Yun Che raised his head slightly.

“The fourth place in the last Blue Wind Ranking Tournament—the eldest son of Fentian Clan Master Fen Duanhun, and also the Burning Heaven Clan Young Master—Fen Juecheng!”

[ps: Fen Duanhun’s three sons: Fen Juecheng (22 years old), Fen Juebi (19 years old), Fen Juechen (17 years old)]
