In Fengzhi Palace
Yu Hua was currently discussing information about Si Li’Er with several female attendants in front of her.
The He Ying Daoist in front of her spoke softly.
"Madam, from the information gathered so far, that Immortal Seed from the Si Family is indeed a favored child of heaven. Not only does she possess a Water Attribute Innate Dao Body, but her wisdom and skills are also formidable. In several sect trials, she has consistently outshone the favored children of the various Immortal Sect Dao Lineages. However, her temperant is likely not as delicate as an ordinary noble maiden!"
Yu Hua slightly furrowed her brows, then spoke after a mont.
"That is to be expected. As a cultivator, she is not an ordinary person; otherwise, how could she strive for longevity!"
The He Ying Daoist remained expressionless, knowing she should not get involved in such matters.
The Dong Shen Temple rely assisted this lady in gathering information about the cultivation realm.
"Empress, it is lively here!"
At that mont, a clear voice ca from outside the main hall.
Under the moonlight appeared a figure dressed in a crimson Emperor’s Robe. His face was handso yet imposing, and as he looked over, a subtle smile was apparent.
"Your Majesty!"
Upon seeing the figure appear, Yu Hua was taken aback, and a hint of joy flickered in her eyes.
She quickly rose to greet him.
Behind her, the He Ying Daoist, a Kun Dao, also saw Zhang Jian’s figure. Her clear eyes briefly held a glimr but she quickly restrained it, rely glancing at Zhang Jian and bowing slightly before retreating.
The couple, having not seen each other for years, naturally had countless personal matters to discuss.
The surrounding female officials were sensible enough to slowly withdraw.
After a mont.
Zhang Jian ntioned the matter everyone had been discussing earlier and asked.
"Empress, have you uncovered any specific information? Does the girl from the Si Family et with your approval?"
A curious expression appeared on his face!
Yu Hua glanced reproachfully at Zhang Jian and retorted with a light hum.
"Your Majesty, with your infinite divine techniques, you could investigate on your own. Yet, you have put the burden on , and after all my efforts, I could only gather so common gossip, only for Your Majesty to inquire with in the end!"
Hearing this, Zhang Jian chuckled.
If Yu Hua didn’t investigate on her own, she wouldn’t be at ease.
He knew it was no use; only Yu Hua, or Zhang Zhao himself, understanding it would suffice.
Zhang Jian pondered for a mont and then said.
"That Si Family girl, I also asked several uncles and elders from the Tongshan Dao Lineage to investigate her. Her character is indeed resolute and unmatched by ordinary people, making her an excellent partner for Zhao’Er!"
"Especially since her cultivation talent is outstanding, possessing an Innate Dao Body, having cultivated for just over two hundred years, with her Dao practice already at the Golden Core Peak!"
Si Li’Er is the youngest daughter of the Ninth Crown Prince of the Yu Dynasty, Si Zhengqing, born over two hundred years ago.
Naturally, her age is quite a bit older than Zhang Zhao.
However, in the cultivation realm, it doesn’t matter.
A gap of three years, they say, ans prosperity.
Being a century or even a millennium older doesn’t matter much either.
Yu Hua considered and continued.
"Your Majesty, I have heard that in the cultivation realm, magical power and status are held in high regard. Zhao’Er, after all, has only been cultivating for a few decades and his Dao practice is weaker than that Si Family girl’s. Could there be so issues?"
Zhang Jian nodded affirmatively.
Male weakness compared to female strength is undoubtedly a major taboo.
Zhang Zhao is cultivating the Dream Traveling in the Void Technique, revolving in dreams.
This Daoist technique was Zhang Jian’s own creation, incredibly profound, allowing one to beco an Immortal God and practice Infinite Divine Techniques in dreams.
But with Zhang Zhao’s brief ti in cultivation, his Dao practice is only at the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt. However, his foundation is exceedingly solid, not inferior to any True Seed of the Immortal Sect Dao Lineages.
After pondering, he laughed and said.
"Empress, although Zhao’Er may not have the most exceptional talents, he possesses great wisdom and thod in his actions. After so ti together, I believe Zhao’Er can naturally win over the Si Family girl!"
Though he said this, Zhang Jian was aware that Zhang Zhao might be at a disadvantage for a short ti.
To elevate himself, he had to go through a period of diligent cultivation.
Even with perseverance, it might not be enough to balance the scales.
After all, she possesses an Innate Dao Body.
Zhang Jian wasn’t worried.
As long as he was around, Zhang Zhao had plenty of ti to prepare slowly.
The couple then talked about the betrothal date and the matter of the bride price.
Yu Hua said: "Your Majesty, the Si Family is, after all, from the Saint King’s Family. We, the East Continent Zhang Family, are newly established. If news spreads, in the eyes of the Si Family and other Immortal Sect Dao Lineages, it might seem presumptuous. We must prepare a generous bride price to suppress such opinions!"
Zhang Jian smiled slightly.
"That wouldn’t be difficult!"
He had acquired nurous treasures within the Xiyue Grotto Heaven; additionally, in the Sea Eye Secret Realm, he slew many Outer World powerhouses and captured several True Immortals. These True Immortals were each exceptionally wealthy, and extracting two Tier One Immortal Treasures from them would suffice as a betrothal gift!
eting Yu Hua’s worried look, he smiled and said.
"Empress, there’s nothing for you to worry about; leave everything to !"
With Zhang Jian’s reassurance, Yu Hua visibly relaxed, easing her mind greatly.
Yet, thinking of Zhang Zhao’s imminent marriage, she couldn’t help but feel the fleeting passage of ti.
She instinctively brushed her hair by her ear, thankful that despite approaching middle age, with the nurturing powers of the Innate Yin Essence Pearl and Phoenix Blood Jade, she still appeared youthful, her face unaged, and her body remained as it had been in her early twenties.
...
As for the betrothal, Zhang Jian naturally intended to handle it personally. But before that, he planned to deal with the captives from Qingping Sea and extract so treasures from them.
