Long Live The Emperor!

Chapter 182: 136. A Volume of Taoist Techniques, Traveling the East Sea

“Brother, you told me to knock on the door of the secret chamber if there’s anything. I knocked many times, but you didn’t respond. Did something happen?”

Xia Ji looked at his sister, who had almost been reborn, and shook his head. ” I’m too engrossed in cultivating. ‘

“Liar.”

The Empress said, ” I snuck in to take a look, but you weren’t there at all. ”

Xia Ji rubbed her hair and smiled. ‘”‘Not bad, you even tried me. Actually, during this period of time, I…”

“Brother, don’t say anymore. It’s good that you’re back safely.”

The Empress stopped talking and stood up. ” See if I’ve grown taller. ”

Xia Ji didn’t stand up. Instead, he looked at her feet and saw a pair of high heels. He nodded.”Too high.” The Empress rolled her eyes.

“It’s really high,” Xia Ji said with certainty.

The Empress rolled her eyes again, then suddenly said, “”Follow me. I have two things to give you.”

The two of them arrived at the royal study.

Xia Xiaosu pushed open the mechanism, revealing a small hidden room. The room was brightly lit, and the Empress turned her head and waved.”Come.” A pile of portraits was spread out on the table in the small pavilion…

” These are all sent by the nobles of the Northern Lands for marriage, ” Xia Xiaosu said with a strange expression. ” If you’re willing to take them into your harem, their fathers will join us…” I’ve seen them. They’re all very beautiful.

These people even threatened me, saying that if you don’t accept their daughter, then they will go to the south.”

Xia Ji was speechless.

It was obvious that someone was behind this abnormal behavior. Who else could it be other than the Su family?

Could it be the Eldest Princess?

When he thought of Su Yueqing, he could not help but blink his eyes. However, on second thought, the Eldest Princess had said that she did not want to go against King Shenwu. Was it the family head or some other noble?

Xia Ji paced back and forth. He had spent a lot of time with the old foxes in the Su family during this period of time, and his corresponding attributes had improved. He suddenly remembered that the Eldest Princess had said that the

Su family would send someone from the eleventh realm to kill him and that the Su family knew that he was looking for aristocratic families everywhere.

Since that was the case, then this marriage plan was likely to disrupt his mind and delay the time until the fire tribulation arrived, so that the experts of the family could all advance.

Since that was the case, the main point was not whether to agree to the marriage or not. Because regardless of whether they agreed or not, it would not cause any obstruction to the actions of the aristocratic families.

Then, the best method was to drag it out.

In this way, the aristocratic families ‘goal had been achieved, and the nobles’ goal of not wanting to have a marriage alliance had also been achieved. He did not have to face a marriage alliance either. This was the best solution to the problem.

Xia Ji’s expression was calm as he suddenly raised his head and looked at Xia

Xiaosu.

The Empress looked at him strangely…

“Brother, why are you looking at me?”

Xia Ji was speechless.

He couldn’t help but wonder if he had communicated too much with the Eldest Princess during this period of time, to the point that he didn’t even want to talk.

“Your Majesty, what do you think?”

“Brother, I think you’ve changed a little after being away for half a year,” said

Xia Xiaosu.

“Is there?”

“It’s become dark…” Xia Xiaosu said firmly. Then she thought for a while and continued, ” I think the nobles are doing this because they have received orders from the aristocratic families. The aristocratic families are probably doing this to balance the situation in the north and south. ‘

The two of them had different perspectives, but they had the same goal.

Let’s stall for time, ” Xia Ji said. ” I haven’t shown myself yet anyway. Just say that I’m in seclusion. ‘

The Empress nodded and replied, ” Alright. ” Then, she said, ” Brother, I have an ancient book for you. It’s a very ancient one. You’ll definitely like it. ‘

As she spoke, she carefully took out a wooden box.

The wooden box was opened.

An ancient book appeared,

On the cover was written the Supreme Clarity Sect.

Xia Ji flipped it open and saw the opening words:Wonderful is the way of the beginning, and the great Brahma spreads the true text. The emperor opened the dragon and han dynasty disaster, bright and colorful. Thirty-two books, five old deficit biography. Mercy to save life and death, Yu Bo spit auspicious clouds.

As his gaze swept past, a mysterious Taoist thought surged into his heart, as if it was about to condense a Skill Orb.

He closed the book. ” I like it. ‘

Xia Xiaosu smiled. ” It was given to me by an old Taoist priest. He said that if I cultivate it, I can purify my heart and reduce my desires. I can ascend freely and go to a blessed land without being burdened by the imperial power. I accepted the book, but I didn’t agree to it.

“What kind of Taoist priest?” Xia Ji asked curiously.

Xia Xiaosu said, ” A sackcloth old Taoist with a cane in his hand and no shoes. He said that I was kind-hearted and that the people in the city I governed lived and worked in peace and contentment. He did not want to see me lose my life in this chaotic world, so he specially came to find me. He asked me to follow him to the Taoist grotto-heaven to cultivate in a year’s time and seek immortality. ”

” This is a Taoist with Dao, ” Xia Ji said. ” Little Su, the calamity has arrived. It’s coming from the west. Within three years, it will definitely enter the Central Plains, and the Imperial Capital will be the first to bear the brunt.

There will definitely be many Turks, Quanrong, Guifang, and other small kingdoms pouring in from Sealed Wolf Pass. This will be the first disaster.”

Xia Xiaosu was stunned. Since her brother had said so, then it was bound to happen. She asked after a moment of silence, “What’s a killing tribulation?”

“Fire Tribulation.”

Xia Ji told her everything about the murder, but he didn’t mention anything about the Su family or his background.

Don’t worry too much, ” Xia Ji said. ” I can take you away if we really have to. ‘

Xia Xiaosu had received a lot of information and was digesting it. She didn’t ask much and just replied, “Okay.”

Xia Ji took out a scarf from his pocket. This scarf was a spatial prop that he had rushed to make last night with Maitreya Zen. Inside it was a string of Buddha’s Prayer Beads from the Mountain Kingdom of Binding Palms, a lamp, and King

Chujiang’s mask..
