Ye Chuchu's heart moved? (Fourth update, seeking subscription)

  Hall of Purple Heaven

  Feng Shao Han looked at Ye Chuchu 'sleeping' on the bed, a hint of pain flashed in his eyes, looking at her, he was actually so powerless.

  He immediately ordered the Shu Fei to be sent to the Cold Palace, which means he is about to take action against the Li family. If it weren't for the emperor not having gathered his troops yet, he would have executed the Shu Fei on the spot.

  He won't let off the Li family, or Shu Fei... Feng Shaohan secretly vowed in his heart.

  "Your Majesty, we can set off now." Yan Yi said seriously to Feng Shao Han, he did not expect that Feng Shao Han would make such a sacrifice for Ye Chuchu, but the king's order cannot be disobeyed, he could only follow Feng Shao Han's command.

  Under An Yi's lead, Feng Shao Han brought Ye Chuchu closer and closer to the ancient Jade Palace.

  "Announcing your presence to His Majesty!" The guard knelt down respectfully and saluted, his eyes not daring to glance sideways, nor would he look at anything that was not supposed to be seen.

  Feng Shao Han didn't say a word and directly entered the Supreme Palace with Ye Chuchu in his arms.

  The ancient warm jade is placed under the Supreme Palace, and at the entrance, there are ministers who have been guarding here for generations. These ministers do not belong to the emperor's jurisdiction, and they are passed down from generation to generation. To be the gatekeeper, the requirement is to be ruthless, even when facing the current emperor, one cannot back down, and must follow the rules of the Supreme Palace.

  "National Master?" Feng Shao Han looked at the person in front of him with surprise, how could the National Master appear here, was he here to stop himself? The aura on Feng Shao Han's body condensed, even if the National Master blocked his way, he would not leave easily.

  Not just Feng Shao Han, but also Ye Chuchu, who had been following behind Feng Shao Han all along, looked at this so-called national teacher with a strange gaze.

  "I had expected you to make this move, but today I'm not here to persuade you, I'm here for her?" The National Master's gaze shot towards the 'Ye Chuchu' in Feng Shao Han's arms. "Hand her over to me, I'll keep her body safe, there's no need for you to suffer the punishment of being pierced by an icy needle."

  Ye Chuchu only felt that just now when Guoshi was speaking, it seemed like his eyes were looking at her? Was it her misconception?

  Upon hearing the national teacher's words, Feng Shaoheng's expression solidified, and he asked heavily, "Can the national teacher really guarantee her body will be fine, waiting for the antidote to save her?" Feng Shaoheng feared that the national teacher would lie to him in order to protect his own body; if so, he wouldn't compromise.

  "I have never deceived you." The national teacher looked at Feng Shao Han seriously, "Hand her over to me. If you don't believe me, you can come and visit her every day. It's better than putting her in the ancient warm jade."

  As he spoke, a bed appeared in front of Guoshi. Seeing things suddenly appear before his eyes, Feng Shaohuang didn't feel surprised at all. This move made Ye Chuchu, who was watching from the side, can't help but glance sideways.

  If Gu Shi's actions were any indication, she hadn't misjudged him - he was also a cultivator. Which meant that what she had just sensed wasn't an illusion after all?

  "I trust Guoshi." Feng Shao Han nodded after a moment of thought, carefully placing her on the bed and lightly kissing her forehead before gazing deeply at her face, which he could never tire of no matter how many times he saw it.

  "Now is the time of national crisis, and we must not be negligent." The national teacher warned, although this time was shocking but safe, but if we are slightly careless, there will still be unpredictable changes, especially with the unexpected existence of Ye Chuchu.

  After discovering the traces of the cultivator on Mount Tian, he hurried down the mountain and after some calculations, he knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.

  "In obedience to the national teacher's teachings, I bid farewell." Feng Shao Han reluctantly took a last glance at Ye Chuchu before leaving, and after he handled his affairs, he would come back to accompany her properly.

  After Feng Shao left.

  "Come out!" The national teacher said in the direction where Ye Chuchu was standing.

  "Are you also a cultivator?" Ye Chuchu asked bluntly, she hadn't expected to meet another cultivator here, but didn't know if they were friend or foe.

  "En." Looking at Ye Chuchu, Guoshi nodded and said kindly, "You can rest assured, I won't do anything to you?"

  "This world has cultivators, but why is there no spiritual energy?" Looking at the old man in front of her, Ye Chuchu expressed her own confusion. She had always thought that this world did not have cultivators, but what about this person in front of her?

  "There were originally cultivators in this world, but they all dispersed between heaven and earth in the end, leaving only me." The National Master was reminded of past memories by Ye Chuchu's words and said with some emotion.

  "Dispersed?" Ye Chuchu repeated incredulously. If this was really a world of cultivating immortals in the past, then not having any spiritual energy now would be a disaster. And how did this person in front of her manage to stay in this world?

  "You know that the original stone contains spiritual stones, then do you know that those are all formed by the condensation of the spiritual energy of this continent..." The National Master slowly said to Ye Chuchu.

  Originally

  ——Start of boring narrative——

  This continent was originally the Three Realms Continent, where humans, immortals, and demons coexisted. Humans cultivated internal energy, but they could also cultivate to become immortals or demons.

  The two realms of the Immortals and Devils began to compete for humans, absorbing more and more people into demonic and immortal cultivation, resulting in a dwindling human population and shaking the rule of the Human King.

  In order to protect his people and position, the King of the Human Realm negotiated with the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Emperor, but the result was a disagreement. The Human King thought back to when the Primordial Heaven Venerable had given him a secret weapon to balance the power of the three realms, as the Human Realm's power was the weakest at the time.

  This weapon is used to counterbalance the Xian Emperor and the Demon Emperor, and should not be used unless absolutely necessary.

  It was a spatial weapon, the Human King exhausted his own spiritual power to use the weapon to form a spatial vortex in the sky, sending all the immortal cultivators and demon cultivators to another continent. Moreover, he set up restrictions on this Rainbow Continent, isolating it from other continents, cutting off the connection between this Rainbow Continent and the world.

  But the Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor sealed all the spiritual energy of this continent in the land before leaving, and there was no spiritual energy in the air. As time passed, this mortal world became a true mortal land.

  On the other hand, people from both the immortal and demon realms were sent to other continents, where they established their own forces based on their strength. The immortal realm occupied the Bright Continent, while the demon realm occupied the Dark Continent.

  ——End——

  "So how did you end up staying behind." Ye Chuchu looked at the only other cultivator besides them, and didn't think that the mortal world and the cultivation world would have such a complicated relationship.

  "I was created by the Human King using his spiritual power, and the Human King's last wish before he died was to let the people of the human world restart their cultivation of Dou Qi." The National Master replied, looking at Ye Chuchu with a profound gaze.

  "Cultivating Dou Qi, but this continent has no spiritual energy left, how can one cultivate Dou Qi?" Ye Chuchu asked in confusion. Perhaps it was the special feeling on Guoshi's body that made Ye Chuchu treat him like a senior, and she could understand everything about this mortal world through him.

  "This is up to you. The fact that you can come into this world is the guidance of the Human King." The national teacher's words shocked Ye Chuchu, and her arrival seemed to have some secret.

  "Your fate is the one left by the Human King in the mortal world, the space guided you into the palace and made you the emperor's consort, all of this was arranged by the Human King." The National Master looked at Ye Chuchu's expression and continued to say.

  "...When she heard this, Ye Chuchu temporarily didn't know what feeling was in her heart. Originally, she had been walking these roads under someone else's arrangement. After a long time, Ye Chuchu finally spoke up, "What does he want me to do?"

  "Help the Emperor unify the continent, and then train a batch of Qi Masters, establish a Qi Academy, and let people start practicing Qi techniques." The National Master directly stated the purpose of Ren Wang, which was also what he had been striving for his whole life.

  Something to strive for.

  "The art of Qi is inferior to the art of Xian, so why bother practicing it? Moreover, I am a cultivator, not a Qi master." Ye Chuchu sneered at Guoshi's words. She didn't have such great abilities, and if she did, she wouldn't be in her current situation. And according to him, she came to this mortal realm because of that person Wang.

  If so, she has even less reason to help.

  "You're all wrong, the art of Dou Qi is vast and profound, with a thick foundation and a thin release. The further you go, the more brilliant the art of Dou Qi becomes." Gu Shi shook his head and said, "As for you, I can teach you Dou Qi and pass on my life's learning to you. With your foundation in the Building Foundation period, practicing the art of Dou Qi is just a matter of time for you."

  "Why do I have to agree with you?" Ye Chuchu knew that she didn't have such great abilities, all she wanted was to expand her own power, to have a foothold in the cultivation world, so that no one could bully her. As for what others did, it had nothing to do with her. In short, she wasn't interested in competing with others. If it were really that fierce, would there be so many people choosing to cultivate immortality or practice magic?

  "What you think can leave, even take others to leave the Three Realms Continent and return to the Cultivation Realm, but do you know what the premise is?" The National Master asked himself and answered, "This premise is that the Three Realms Continent will be restored to a land with spiritual energy. Once the Three Realms Continent recovers its spiritual energy, you can move freely between the two regions without any obstacles. And your alchemy, artifact refinement, all these are left to you by the Human King, do you think they were obtained for nothing?"

  The national teacher's words were like a stick on the head, striking down all the proud things Ye Chuchu had thought of for some time. She originally thought that her luck was so good that she could get such blessings that others had never had, but it turned out that everything was arranged.

  I didn't expect the truth of this matter would be like this, is she being forced? Forcing her to carry out the will left behind by these people.

  "We're not forcing you." The national teacher continued, "I just want you to use all your abilities to help the emperor, help me fulfill the will of the human king, and I will do my best to improve your cultivation. Not to mention being invincible in the world, but also being able to dominate one side, I am negotiating with you, not forcing you."

  Looking at Ye Chuchu's still silent appearance, Guoshi continued, "Do you want to know how far the Emperor is willing to pay for you?"

  Upon hearing this, Ye Chuchu raised her eyes and glanced at Guoshi.

  "Follow me." The national teacher walked ahead first, and Ye Chuchu followed behind him.

  Two people arrived at the entrance of what was called the underground palace. Here, there were six white-haired old men waiting on duty.

  Two people walked past in front of six others without drawing any attention.

  Entering the underground palace, it was illuminated by night pearls, so it was considered 'bright as day'. Ye Chuchu was carefully examining the environment here.

  At a corner, Guoshi turned into a room and Ye Chuchu followed him in.

  "This is where the Emperor will take you to receive your punishment." The National Master said to Ye Chuchu, "This ice pond is composed of thousand-year-old mysterious ice, and what the Emperor wants to do is enter this cold pool naked."

  Ye Chuchu gazed at Han Tang, a flicker of emotion flashing in her eyes.

  "But that's not all." The national teacher took a few steps, picked up an iron chain from the side, "This is also the thousand-year-old mysterious iron. After the emperor enters this cold pool, he will also need to receive seven lashes of the thousand-year-old mysterious iron. This can make a person unable to withstand the cold air and not die or be disabled. However, as the emperor is the ruler of a country, it's impossible for him to die. The Supreme Palace will prepare medicine to protect his heart pulse. After completing this punishment, the emperor will need at least half a year, or even several years, to recover, and someone needs to help him cultivate and drive out the cold every day. Do you think that with the emperor's feelings towards you, it's not worth helping him unify the Three Realms?"

  "Let me think carefully." Ye Chuchu said coldly, whoever finds themselves living in someone else's calculations will not have a good mood, but what Guoshi said made her heart feel like it was being pinched by something at this moment, and inside she was thinking of breaking out.

  "This time you and Ning Wang go to the southwest, there will also be great opportunities. Wait until you return from the southwest, then tell me your answer." After finishing speaking, Guoshi disappeared along with Ye Chuchu who was lying down in front of him.

  Now Ye Chuchu finally knew why Su Qingge had such a strange expression every time she saw her teleport, just like now. She still had many things to ask this so-called national teacher, but he disappeared in front of her eyes.

  Ye Chuchu turned around and left, now everything has been settled for going southwest.

  Guo Shi said that there would be great opportunities, Ye Chuchu thought, this was probably related to the mine area, as for helping to complete Ren Wang's will, she would decide when she came back.

  Ye Chuchu came out of the Supreme Palace, but what she thought about was the cold pond she had just seen in the underground palace. Feng Shaochen, he was actually willing to sacrifice himself for her to such an extent? Was she really that important to him? Important enough to disregard his own life?

  As soon as he thought about it, he had already arrived at the Temple of the Town God on the Ridge.

  Inside Long Town Palace, Feng Shao Han and Feng Xue Feng were discussing countermeasures against the Li family.

  "Brother, the original plan was to take advantage of going southwest to gather troops in Huangzhou and catch Li Xing off guard. Now that you've demoted Shu Fei to the Cold Palace, isn't this like beating the grass to scare away the snake?" Feng Xuefeng said with some tension, this slight misstep would put them at a disadvantage.

  "The Empress is plotting against the Imperial Concubine. If I don't punish her, my anger will be hard to dispel." Feng Shao said coldly, glancing at Feng Xuefeng's worried expression. "Li Xing won't make a move at this time, but he may rebel earlier than we think. So, on your trip to the Southwest, you must return as soon as possible... If I really have to suffer that punishment, I believe you, Imperial Brother, will manage the empire well."

  After hearing Feng Shao Han's words, Feng Xue Feng fell silent. From his seeing Feng Shao Han willing to risk everything for Ye Chuchu, including the punishment of being worse off than death, and disregarding his own imperial position, now he was just demoting Empress Shu to the Cold Palace, what was there to be calculated about?

  Feng Xuefeng looked at Feng Shaohan seriously and said, "Your younger brother will definitely not disappoint the Emperor's trust."

  "Arrange for an early departure and hurry to the southwest!" Feng Shao Han ordered.

  "Yes, I will withdraw." Feng Xue bowed and left the palace quickly, now time is life.

  Watching Feng Xuefeng leave, Ye Chuchu's eyes flashed and she was about to leave, but Feng Shaohan called out "An Yi", which made her stop in her tracks. This An Yi was the same dark guard who had once impersonated Feng Shaohan.

  Ye Chuchu stayed where she was, watching the interaction between the two people.

  Feng Xuefeng left, and then Feng Shaohan called out Yan Yi.

  "An Yi, did Wang's side succeed?" Feng Shao Han asked, this time she blamed it on Wang's body. At the beginning, the Wang family had a spy in the harem, and a small palace girl in the small kitchen of Yunxiang Palace was one of them. This palace girl admitted that Wang let her do this thing.

  Feng Shao Han's words made Ye Chuchu think of the last time she had placed a strand of her divine consciousness on Han Juan, originally thinking that she would be able to drug her, but unexpectedly gaining such a harvest in the small kitchen, and then hypnotizing the little palace maid, finally framing Wang Shi and Shu Fei.

  Feng Shaohan was able to find out so quickly, it seems that his abilities are indeed not to be underestimated.

  "Wang's clan has been annihilated, and our people have taken their place within the Wang family's inner power structure." An Yi replied, recalling what Wang said to him before his death: "Please tell His Majesty that Yazi's greatest mistake was falling in love with him." An Yi didn't know whether he should say this or not.

  However, after seeing the emperor's bloodthirsty expression after listening to him finish speaking, An Yi swallowed these words into his own belly. The emperor had always treated Wang differently.

  The emperor in her heart is probably just an illusion in her own mind.

  "What did Empress Shu show in the Cold Palace?" Feng Shaoheng continued to ask.

  The two words "Shu Fei" made Ye Chuchu listen seriously. Shu Fei entering the Cold Palace means that at least she won't be bothering her again in the future.

  "Shu Fei was scolding loudly in the Cold Palace, but she didn't do anything too extreme for the time being. Instead, Xian Fei and Hui Fei went to the Cold Palace to visit Shu Fei, but were stopped by the guards." An Yi replied.

  "Didn't Shu Fei and they used to get along well? This time Shu Fei entered the Cold Palace, they must be going to watch the joke. These women are hypocritical and ugly to the extreme." Feng Shaohan said sarcastically, his eyes full of disdain. Only his Chu Chu was so real, making people want to protect her in their hands. Thinking of Ye Chuchu, Feng Shaohan's eyes darkened again, just because he hadn't seen Ye Chuchu for a while, he missed her terribly.

  Looking at Feng Shao's disdainful expression towards women, Ye Chuchu didn't know why she suddenly felt a hint of happiness in her heart.

  "...An intelligent silence, watching the emperor's disdain for those concubines, An couldn't help but mock in her heart, weren't all women except the noble consort the same in the emperor's eyes?"

  "Assign someone to keep a close eye on Li Xing, especially those Jianghu masters in his hands. Let Su Qingge's Tianxia Tower take action to assassinate those Jianghu figures closely related to Li Xing. As for the price... he knows how much to pay." Feng Shao Han instructed.

  "Yes." After answering, Cong Ming hastily retreated.

  Killer, Ye Chuchu, a flash of her eyes, it seems that going west and southwest won't be peaceful.

  After a slight push, Feng Shao Han picked up a scroll from the table and Ye Chuchu walked to his side. The scroll slowly unfolded in Feng Shao Han's hand.

  Above, a woman in white clothes is painted, floating and ethereal, looking up at the sky, as if she is out of this world.

  Is this her? Ye Chuchu asked herself, she didn't know when Feng Shaohan saw it and when he painted it, but from this, she knew that Feng Shaohan had captured her spirit very clearly.

  After gazing at the painting for a while, Feng Shao Han carefully put it away, got up and walked into the inner chamber.

  Ye Chuchu also followed him in.

  At this time, Feng Shao Han walked to the jade statue that Ye Chuchu had carved before, his hand slowly moved towards 'her' face, murmuring, "Fortunately, in the depths of the night, there is still one comfort."

  Watching Feng Shao Han's movements and listening to his words, Ye Chuchu found that her heart was beating extremely fast. Quickly, Ye Chuchu quickly escaped from the room.

  Ye Chuchu felt a surge of emotions in her heart, a feeling that seemed to be bursting out, something she hadn't experienced in hundreds of years.

  After a while, Ye Chuchu slowly calmed down and walked towards the Ning Wang Fu, where Ning Wang was waiting for her.

  Li Mansion's secret chamber

  "Master, this time Ning Wang is going to the southwest with Chu Ye, they will set off soon." The man in black reported to Li Xing.

  "This emperor's whelp, actually dares to lock my precious daughter in the Cold Palace. Our plan needs to be carried out ahead of schedule. This Ning Wang is the emperor's right-hand man. If we lose him, the Emperor will lose a bit of his power. For us, it can only be beneficial. And that Chu Ye, except for going to resign, let's take care of these two people first, and then I'll settle accounts with the Emperor." Li Xing said viciously, he had only one daughter, Princess Shu, whom he had doted on since childhood, never expecting her to receive such treatment in the imperial harem.

  "Yes." The man in black replied.

  "We must make sure they have no way to return. Send five heavenly-level and ten earthly-level cultivators, and I don't believe they can't be killed." Li Xing said disdainfully. No matter how strong Ning Wang's martial arts were, two fists couldn't defeat four hands, and as for that Chu Ye, he had the strength of a chicken, what threat could he pose?

  "Obey orders." The man in black recalled the memory of the last time he sent someone who didn't fall. He was hesitant whether to speak, but decided it might just be an accident.

  Duke Ning's Mansion

  "You're here." Feng Xuefeng looked at Chu Ye, with a hint of fatigue in his tone.

  "En." Ye Chuchu's mood had already changed from the discomfort she felt earlier, and she replied calmly to Ning Wang.

  "Now we need to hurry." Feng Xuefeng said, it's no longer possible to follow the original plan, not only do they need to rush more, but also pay attention to safety.

  To deal with the Emperor's brother, this road is likely to be fraught with danger.

  "En." Ye Chuchu had already made her preparations.

  "This road may have some dangers, when encountering danger, if you can't beat it, run away. I think with your lightness skills, there shouldn't be too much of a problem." Feng Xuefeng reminded while walking towards the stable.

  "Really." Ye Chuchu didn't expect Feng Xuefeng to say this, retreating at the last minute. Isn't that a big taboo for military leaders? Feng Xuefeng has been leading troops for so many years, yet he would say something like this. He's probably worried about the safety of this unrelated person, because this danger was brought upon her by him.

  But what he didn't know was that she was still the root cause of this incident.

  If it weren't for escaping to the southwest, Imperial Concubine Ye Chuchu wouldn't have gotten into trouble, Shu Fei wouldn't have entered the Cold Palace, and Li Xing wouldn't have taken action ahead of time...

  Having collected her emotions, Ye Chuchu climbed onto the horse. She still remembered how she was rescued by Feng Xuefeng last time because she didn't know how to ride a horse. It seemed that after staying in this mortal world for a long time, many things had also changed.

  Phoenix wind, leaf Chu Chu and some attendants galloped southwest, while a group of people followed closely behind, looking for an opportunity to strike and kill them.

  They will be passing through three regions on their way southwest.

  Chuanxi Basin is mainly composed of basin landforms; Yunnan and Guizhou are mainly composed of mountainous landforms, Qinghai is mainly composed of plateau landforms.

  The mining area is in Qinghai, while Huangzhou is located at the junction of Yunnan-Guizhou and Qinghai.

  And of these three places, the easiest place to ambush is the river basin.

  They are now passing through a basin, in the basin, as long as the enemy is ambushing and killing on both sides with stones and arrows, it is very dangerous for them.

  So when passing through this area, Ye Chuchu and others were very careful, and they had already obtained the shield in the previous place.

  Each person has a shield, divided into two teams, advancing cautiously with two people scouting and defending at the front and back.

  When several people walked halfway, it was also the time of highest vigilance. At this moment, more than a dozen figures flashed out from both sides and launched an arrow attack on several people.

  A few people reacted quickly, while Ye Chuchu defended and paid attention to the overall changes in the team. Now this team is a key issue, if someone gets into trouble, they may be implicated, so Ye Chuchu has been secretly protecting others to complete the task as soon as possible.

  The men in black saw that the first round of attack had little effect, so they picked up their swords and flew down.

  Ye Chuchu, Feng Xuefeng and the guards also picked up their weapons and started a counterattack.

  The clanging sound echoed in the basin, bringing wave after wave of slaughter.

  Phoenix Feng saw some guards being killed and fell to the ground, his mind condensed. These killers were not ordinary, it seemed that the opponent had made sufficient preparations. If so, then Li Xing would not start a rebellion so early. Thinking of this, Phoenix Feng began to fight back with all his might.

  The guards lost more than half under the pincer attack of the highly skilled killers.

  And the killers also lost more than half of them, and the reason is Ye Chuchu.

  Ye Chuchu's figure was too fast, and under the black-clothed man's successive strikes, one by one, her acupoints were sealed.

  Because of Ye Chuchu's great contribution in the team, after a glance from the black-clothed men, they gradually faded away.

  Out of the killing team.

  Soon after, Feng Xuefeng only saw a flash of light from his eyes, and an arrow shot towards Ye Chuchu who was in the midst of an intense battle.

  Digression

  O (n_n) o Haha ~ handsome guy is so cool...

  Next you guess if it's a heroic rescue scene? Hehe, take a guess!
