Chapter 1959: Bad News

gh to expose his true intentions and arouse suspicion. Instead, he follows the principle of "the highest bidder gets it."Another corpse was secretly sold, but unfortunately, the buyer was not a discip...Fiery Domain.

Suddenly, a phoenix-like cry echoed from within Qin Sang's cave dwelling.

Its sound is clear and pleasant, full of joy.

A crimson light pierced the cave, extinguishing every starpoint. This scene resembled a blazing inferno engulfing an expanse of stars. In the heart of the flames, a phoenix bathed in fire, reborn.

Qin Sang looked at Zhuque, his expression strange.

Zhuge at this moment is clearly showing signs of being about to break through.

After the First Sword Servant imbued it with a spirit, Zhuque awakened and regained cultivation equivalent to that of a human Nascent Soul late stage. It stopped at the threshold of the Divine Transformation realm, but unexpectedly broke through at this juncture.

Qin Sang never expected that when he asked Zhuque to help him comprehend the sword formation, before the formation was complete, there would be an unexpected surprise, helping Zhuque break through a bottleneck.

Zhuque's origins are quite peculiar, and Qin Sang is also unclear about its state.

I don't know how much this understanding of the sword formation helped Zhuque's breakthrough, but it definitely wasn't a coincidence.

"Could my feeling be right The Four Sacred Beasts, the Suzaku of the south, and the real-world Suzaku clan indeed share an unknown connection Is there a correspondence between the power of the seven constellations in the south and the existence of Suzaku on some level"

Qin Sang's heart flickered.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain how Zhuque could have had a sudden enlightenment when he attained enlightenment.

Vermilion Bird, Starry Sky.

As the First Sword Servant's cultivation base and status, he specifically reminded him of this technique, which shows that 《天妖煉形》 must be extraordinary, perhaps even one of the true methods of the demon clan.

Could it be that the fundamental path pursued by the demon clan, the Starry Dao, is one of them

This shows that his previous comprehension gained from the Four Symbols Star Region was not out of thin air. It was related to his cultivation of the Heaven Demon Refining Body Art and manifested when he comprehended the Four Symbols Sword Array, providing him with assistance.

"Screech!"

Another long cry cut short Qin Sang's thoughts.

In the calls, there was a touch more urgency.

At the same time, Zhu Que's aura fluctuated violently, and the shockwaves spread out of the cave dwelling, affecting the spiritual energy throughout the entire dojo. This caused the fire spirit demon soldiers guarding the dojo to fall into chaos.

Ling Xi was cultivating when he was suddenly awakened. He rushed out of his cave dwelling and saw the stone mansion on the mountaintop burst open with a deafening roar, shooting out a red light.

"No worries, no need to panic."

Qin Sang's words reached the ears of Ling Shi and the fire spirit soldiers. His thick and steady voice immediately calmed all the panic.

Ling Shi flew down the mountain to appease the demon soldiers, and before Gui Hou left, he entrusted these demon soldiers to him.

That red light surged out of the arena and vanished in an instant.

Before, Zhuque entered the stage of transformation while sleeping and did not attract a heavenly tribulation when breaking through. It is unknown if there will be a heavenly tribulation this time during the breakthrough to become a divine being. Just in case, Qin Sang took it out of the cave mansion and found a place to cross the tribulation.

Now, there are more and more cultivators in the Fire Domain. It's hard to find a secluded place. Qin Sang had to take action himself, sealing heaven and earth to prevent the fluctuations of the heavenly tribulation from spreading and alarming various forces.

Above a volcano.

Qin Sang released the restriction, and the crimson fire suddenly erupted, flames nearly burning through the sky.

Zhu Que knew he could break through without any hesitation, and no longer suppressed himself, charging full force at the bottleneck!

"Whew! Whew!"

The sky was ablaze with a sea of fire, waves upon waves crashing down. Any stray stream of flames could cause magma to boil, mountains to crumble, and bring about an apocalyptic scene.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Finally, a towering pillar of fire shot out from the sea of flames.

Along with the pillar of fire erupting, there was also Zhuque's cry. This cry was unlike its previous sharpness; it carried a few more points of thickness and joy!

Boom!

>

The Suzaku's aura surged violently.

Qin Sang had always paid attention to celestial changes. From beginning to end, there was no sign of a calamity cloud. Until the fire sea in the sky gradually calmed down, he did not feel the breath of a heavenly tribulation.

“Zhuge’s cultivation back then was definitely far beyond the Nascent Soul stage. It seems that Zhuque lost his memory and appears to be reborn, starting from scratch. In reality, his connection to the past is unbreakable. In the eyes of Heaven, he is just gradually recovering his previous cultivation. However, what kind of cultivator was this guy before A powerful being at the Transcendence stage or even the Mahayana stage, how could he have such a terrible personality…”

Qin Sang's mind was racing when suddenly, she felt a weight on her shoulder. Zhuque retracted the flames of the Red Fire and landed on her shoulder.

With a slight glance, Qin Sang discovered that Zhu Que's appearance had also undergone a remarkable change. Its body looked more slender, its wings were burning with flames, and its tail had several strangely patterned long plumes. Its temperament changed drastically; it was no longer the fire crow from before, but had a touch of sacred beast about it.

However, one's nature cannot be changed.

Zhuque looked around with pride, pleased with itself, as if urging Qin Sang to praise it quickly!

Qin Sang wiped away the traces and returned to the cave, letting Zhuque help him comprehend the sword formation. Zhuque never complained again, scurrying over eagerly, putting in his full effort!

Upon giving it a try, Qin Sang immediately felt the difference and his eyes lit up with surprise.

The sound of swords clashing echoed through the cave dwelling.

Qin Sang was surrounded by brilliant stars, a total of two stellar regions. One of them was the Western Seven Stars evolved from the Qisu Fenlie Jianzhen Formation, and the other was the Southern Seven Stars!

Compared to the Western Seven Constellations, the Southern Seven Constellations' starlight appears ethereal and their connections are not as tight. Some stars shine brightly while others are dim.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Among the seven constellations, there is a sense of dispersion, each governing itself.

Not enough to call it a 'formation'!

But at the center of countless stars, there was a flame burning incomparably brilliantly, its light illuminating the entire star field. It was this fire that pulled all the stars together, connecting them, and faintly forming a whole.

With this fire, the rudimentary shape of a formation was established!

Unexpectedly, Zhuque's breakthrough brought about such drastic changes.

Qin Sang couldn't help but be overjoyed. Today, he was doubly blessed. The Vermilion Bird broke through, and the sword formation had progressed far beyond expectations.

The basic form of the sword array is complete, and it only needs to be gradually improved from now on. It's much faster than expected.

Moreover, the insights gained from this experience were immensely helpful in comprehending the subsequent two sword formations. Even without the Azure Dragon Sacred Beast and Black Tortoise Sacred Beast by his side, he would find it much smoother.

“Quick, thank Lord Zhuque!”

Zhuge could also sense the change and immediately appeared in the starry sea, strutting before Qin Sang.

"Well done, thanks to you this time, keep it up."

Qin Sang showered him with praise, hoping he could make breakthroughs every day. It wouldn't hurt Zhuque to feel a little proud.

Vermilion Bird indeed proved to be extremely useful, excitedly plunging into the starry sea.

To achieve the rank of "Three Yuan" is truly exceptional, and throughout the history of the Yan Kingdom, such a feat is incredibly rare.

At the Jionglin banquet, the champion was unrivaled in his popularity.

The clamor will eventually gradually subside.

Just as the whole country was buzzing about the new top scholar being a reincarnation of the star of literature, the man himself disguised himself and arrived at a small teahouse by Yuwa Lake.

>

"Senior Sister, from now on, every time I come here, I'll have to disguise myself," Yu Lang said with a full beard and a valiant air, his disguise incredibly convincing.

He wasn't afraid of people knowing about his relationship with the teahouse, but it would disturb Xiao Wu's tranquility and affect her worldly experience.

"The Chunhu spring from Yinzhou, with its reputation for excellence, even a top scholar's first attempt wouldn't surpass the imperial tribute tea gifted by the Emperor."

Xiao Wu personally brewed a pot of tea for Yu Lang.

“My senior sister also laughed at me.”

Yu Lang pretended to complain, but he was actually very happy.

After three years in the world, my senior sister has changed a lot. She's become more playful and humorous.

Yu Lang thought of a somewhat disrespectful description, his senior sister had gained a touch of human charm.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

With a cup of tea in hand, Yu Lang greeted him with "Good tea." He then continued, "The crown prince wants to recommend me to the Ministry of Revenue, but after much deliberation, I've decided to go to the Hanlin Academy first.

“According to my observations, the Emperor, though advanced in years, is still in good health. Unless something unforeseen happens, he should live for another ten years.”

"The Emperor's words are golden, he declared me the top scholar. It was also a veiled expression of his attitude towards the prince."

"I advise the Crown Prince to remain calm and collected. The Emperor values propriety, and we hold the moral high ground. We should endure patiently, allowing the winds of change to blow from all directions, for I shall stand firm and unyielding! Tao Teng also agrees."

Yu Lang chatted incessantly, revealing his plots with the Crown Prince and Tao Teng, as well as their plans for the future, without holding back anything.

Little Five sat opposite, resting his chin in his hands, a serious listener.

Unknowingly, the sky outside turned dark.

Yu Lang put down his teacup and said with a self-deprecating smile, "I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me, senior sister, but I'm a little nervous and uneasy. I felt the power of fame and fortune at the Qionglins Banquet. After talking to you, I feel much more relaxed."

He stood up and let out a long sigh.

Xiao Wu softly said: "Come often in the future."

"Hmm!"

Yu Lang heaved a sigh of relief as he stepped out of the teahouse, his brow no longer furrowed.

Five years ago, I concluded that the Emperor had ten more years to live. I almost thought I had misread the signs and disgraced my master's name. Last month, the Emperor suddenly fell ill, and rumors spread throughout the palace that his condition was grave, with everyone preparing for his demise. Unexpectedly, today the Emperor suddenly appeared at court early, looking ruddy and healthy, but there was no sign of him having recently recovered from a serious illness.

"The illness was strange. The third prince couldn't keep his composure and revealed some clues."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“The Second Prince was more composed than we expected, but we still found some clues about him. We didn't expect his involvement to be so deep. Luckily, we discovered it in advance!”

Fortunately, the Crown Prince heeded the advice, but it's also time for Tao Teng to start working.

“Oh, by the way, Master has already become a high-ranking official in the capital, but he still doesn't want to leave the border and won't allow me to work for him in court.”

Only the two siblings were in the room.

Yu Lang revealed his true appearance, with a neatly trimmed beard. The youthful look on his face was gone, replaced by the aura of someone who had long resided in a position of power.

He closed his eyes slightly and leaned back in his chair.

Only here with his senior sister, does he dare to completely relax.

> Another year of spring.

Rain is pattering, and there aren't many guests.

Little Five Hundred was boredly leaning against the counter when he saw a scholar in green robes with a folding fan walk in. He smiled slightly: "You're here."

"Still can't hide it from my senior sister!"

Yu Lang hung his head in dejection.

His disguise skills were already masterful, but no matter how he disguised himself, his senior sister would see through it at a glance. His senior sister didn't cultivate any energy, yet her eyesight was still incredibly sharp.

>

Because we are too familiar.

Xiao Wu took out a can of tea, “Try the new tea that was sent over.”

They didn't go to the second floor. They found a seat on the first floor with a view of the lake.

"My master's wife has given birth to a daughter, both mother and child are safe. As a junior sister, I should send a gift to celebrate, right" Yu Lang said.

Little Five happily asked, “What’s your name”

"Her given name is Qi'er," Yu Lang scanned the guests in the teahouse, suddenly chuckled, and whispered, pointing to a scholar in the corner of the teahouse, "Mr. Luo has come again."

The scholar sat alone, a table laden with tea and refreshments before him, yet he had no appetite for either. He would glance over from time to time.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

"I told you, Young Master Luo must have fallen for his senior sister," Yu Lang chuckled mischievously.

To avoid trouble, Xiao Wu's disguised appearance wasn't outstanding, and she even intentionally created flaws. However, some people with discerning eyes saw her unique charm and were attracted to her.

Three days ago, someone came to speak on his behalf.

Xiaowu replied, his expression calm and composed, without any shyness or embarrassment.

>

"Playing matchmaker"

Yu Lang was stunned, "Sister didn't agree"

Xiaowu looked at him with the eyes of a fool.

"Senior sister, do you like him Or to put it another way, do you have any feelings for him" Yulan asked.

“I don’t like it,” Xiao Wu shook his head without hesitation. “I don’t know what liking is, but he seems no different from others, so I definitely don’t like him.”

"Actually, Senior Sister could give it a try. Liking someone and being married for life, Master would definitely allow it," Yu Lang said cautiously.

To be able to fall in love with someone means you've truly entered the world.

To be a husband and wife for a lifetime, to accompany one's partner through life, and then seek immortality, is not a loss. If your partner has talent, it would be even better, as you could become immortal cultivators together.

However, Yu Lang remembered that his senior sister's true form was actually a little girl a few years old, and she was naturally cold.

It's hard to imagine what it would be like to see my senior sister married to someone else.

“Are you getting married” Xiao Wu asked back.

Yu Lang nodded. "There's no way to avoid it. Once you enter the world, you have to follow social conventions. Tao Teng was forced into his bridal chamber and had a son. At my place, matchmakers are practically breaking down the door. I've met a young lady, the daughter of a Minister of Rites. She is both beautiful and intelligent, but I need Master's permission."

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

"The master will surely like the girl you've taken a liking to. Will your teacher come"

Little Five asked.

Qin Sang definitely won't attend. Only Chen Zhenqing will be present as a senior representative.

"The master worries about the people. He should return to Beijing to take up his post. I don't believe in auspicious times, so I'll just wait for the day the master arrives in the capital," said Yu Lang, glancing at Master Luo and silently mourning for him.

“The Emperor lived a year longer than I expected, but his health is deteriorating rapidly and he can only rely on medicine to keep going. Several princes have already started maneuvering behind the scenes. During this time, I am stretched thin and cannot come back. The capital is a den of vipers, and the situation must be chaotic. Sister, it's best for you to close shop for half a year; things should become clearer by then!”

Yulan said in a deep voice, Xiao Wu having sealed his cultivation and become an ordinary person, would be swept up by the current of events and have to follow the tide.

Little Five hummed and said earnestly, "Be careful!"

This warning was not for Yu Lang's own safety.

Things are dire; he could walk away at any moment, but his ambitions and eleven years of effort would all be for nothing.

“Under our guidance, the Second Prince exposed more and more flaws. The only variable is the Emperor's imperial edict! Once the edict is issued, the Second Prince will have no chance of turning things around! Let's see if he has the guts to launch a palace coup!”

Yu Lang sneered, said a few words to Xiao Wu again, and left in a hurry.

The East Palace of the Crown Prince, the prince's residence, various government offices, the Qin Mansion, the Tao Mansion...

Kyoto and the entire country of Yan were abuzz with activity, preparing with utmost secrecy. Countless eyes were fixed on the palace, everyone awaiting a single piece of news.

Just as the situation was about to explode.

Suddenly, an urgent report arrived in the capital.

Upon seeing the urgent report, Yu Lang was greatly shocked and dismayed.

The Daliang nation brazenly tore up the contract, and the border troops revolted!

(The End)or to that of the Daoist masters.As time went on, the Taoist side consumed more and more talismans. Fortunately, they were well-prepared and could still hold out.The old Taoist's expression was somewh...
