1082: The Origin of Cang Yue Mainland I

The Origin of Cang Yue Mainland I

"It is true that you bow down to me now, but it doesn't mean that you will surrender yourself for your whole life." The corner of Feng Ruqing's lips curved into a faint smile. 0

Feng Ruqing would not stay in this place for the rest of her life. 

If the emperor did not keep his words, all the spirit beasts in the entire Forest of the Spirit Beasts would be massacred.

Stunned, the emperor knew what Feng Ruqing was worrying about and she did have a point.

If the emperor's strength improved to a state where he was as strong as the retired emperor, or even stronger than the retired emperor, he would never sit back and do nothing to those who usurp the throne. 

Thinking of this, the emperor closed his eyes slowly. An overwhelming force dissipated from his body. In an instant, the entire palace was full of spiritual qi. 

Only after a long while did the emperor opened his eyes. Originally, the spiritual qi within the emperor was so overwhelming just like a vast ocean. Currently, his spiritual qi was just a small pool. 

"I have dissipated my spiritual qi. Currently, I am only a Dark Warrior. Is that enough?"

It was truly hard to make a decision to degrade from Immortal Warrior tier to Dark Warrior tier. Not everyone had the courage to do this.

"Maiden, if you still don't trust me, I am willing to eat the Five Venom leaf so I could never make a breakthrough and will remain a Dark Warrior for my entire life." This was the emperor's bottom line. He would never cripple his cultivation. If his cultivation was crippled, he could no longer stay in this realm. 

"Alright. You eat the Five Venom leaf and leave this palace alone. You don't have to take these people together with you and you'd better leave in less than fifteen minutes. Otherwise, you could never leave." After pondering for a long while, Feng Ruqing nodded slightly. 

Hearing this, the emperor straightened up and walked toward the palace gate. He did not even spare a glance at the servants and eunuchs who were still standing in the palace. 

Watching the emperor leaving, he looked extremely lonely and helpless. Falling to the bottom of the chain from being an emperor was like falling to the ground from the sky. 

Fortunately, the emperor was falling to the ground instead of a deep abyss. 

If the emperor insisted on going against Feng Ruqing, he would definitely fall into the deep abyss without any chance of survival.

Who on earth did not want to stay alive? The emperor was truly fortunate that Feng Ruqing was not a ruthless lady and had spared his life. 

Seeing that the emperor had left, the eyes of the people in the palace widened, dumbfounded. Then, they turned to look at Feng Ruqing who was standing in the wind. 

Currently, Feng Ruqing looked as if she was the real ruler. The spirit beasts behind her were like huge troops, protecting their reigning monarch.

"If you want to stay, you can do so. However, if you want to leave, I won't stop you." Feng Ruqing brushed her robe, her gaze scanning all the servants and eunuchs who stood fearfully rooted to the spot. 

"Sure enough, if any of you stir up trouble, you are no doubt following the same path as the 

eldest prince and the retired emperor."

Everyone on the spot kneeled down in unison. 

The emperor had abandoned these people. Sure enough, they must bow down to this lady. Moreover, it was common for a kingdom to change its reigning monarch. The winners took it all. There was nothing that these people could not take. 

If the emperor chose to die rather than surrender, perhaps, some of the devoted and loyal officials would have followed him. Now that the emperor had left everyone behind for his own life, they simply could not find any reason to go against Feng Ruqing. 

"Let's go."

Disregarding the people who were still kneeling on the ground, Feng Ruqing walked toward the imperial harem.

Gu Yiyi stepped into the imperial harem, once again, with a different feeling. 

Back then, she was forcibly brought into the palace by the eldest prince. This time, she was here together with the lady she loved. Naturally, the feeling was different. 

However, she did not know how You Lan was doing.
