There’s no denying, Su Ziyue is truly a rare beauty in the human world, especially now that her cultivation is rising, and the nine-tailed heavenly fox bloodline within her has been fully awakened.
She becos even more irresistible.
"There has been so change indeed." Su Ziyue stood behind Chen Yuan, her face flushed, clearly benefiting from significant nourishnt.
"When we march south against the Southern Border demons, we can draw the divine blood of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox Clan, allowing you to ascend another level."
Su Ziyue’s cultivation differs from ordinary people; strictly speaking, she’s a half-demon who can enhance her physical form by consuming divine blood. Even if the path of the Primordial Spirit is blocked for her in the future,
she can still reach the Demon God realm.
Of course, the prerequisite is that she fully converts her bloodline.
"There’s no rush at the mont, you should focus on your important matters first." Through Yang Huatian, Jiang He, and others, she had already learned about the battle that took place that day in Central State,
directly engaging in warfare with the Immortal Domain, where the casualties were grueso.
If not for the sudden appearance of Grand Ancestor Chu, the Yan Army might have faced disaster.
In battles of such magnitude, even the Yang God True Monarch did not have the qualification to participate; one can imagine how terrifying it was. She also understood the imnse pressure Chen Yuan was bearing now.
"Heh, annihilating the demon clan is also a significant task." Chen Yuan said with a light smile; he wanted to raise his realm in a short period of ti, for which the guidance of the Qi Fortune Altar was indispensable.
And on Demon Emperor Mo Ying rests the Qi Fortune he needs to acquire.
But compared to the Northern Barbarians and Buddhists, the Southern Border demon clan’s strength is greater. Although it seed that the demon clan only had a few great demons,
their foundation was incredibly deep.
The Southern Border is nad such only due to its geographical location being north of the Central Plains. In fact, the expanse of the Southern Border is no less than that of the Central Plains, if not larger.
It’s just that resources aren’t as abundant.
With such a vast territory, who would believe there aren’t a few powerful figures?
Therefore, Chen Yuan’s established goal is to first eliminate the Buddhist sect, then launch a campaign northward, finally gathering forces to annihilate the Southern Border demon clan in one fell swoop, and afterwards, to rally the power of the human world and battle against the Immortal Domain!
"Since arriving, I’ve t with Princess Pingyang, heard she... wants to be the Empress?" Su Ziyue shifted the topic from the prior discussion to Princess Pingyang.
She knew Chen Yuan always had goals in mind, understanding what should and shouldn’t be done; over-talking wouldn’t help, so she opted for casual talk.
"That seems to be the idea, what do you think?" Chen Yuan chuckled.
Having just recovered from a string of battles, he didn’t want to imdiately dive into other tasks; it’s like stretching a string—keeping it taut all the ti isn’t good.
Cultivation, especially after entering the Six Realms, requires enlightennt from understanding the universe to advance one’s realm.
Urgency is certainly there, but Chen Yuan wouldn’t lose himself in madness, which would hinder cultivation even more, so after exiting seclusion and eting Su Ziyue, he indulged a bit.
To relax his own state of mind.
"As a woman, what can I say? Haven’t you, Lord Regent, always decided that? Even if I were to be sent to the Cold Palace, I would just accept my fate...." Su Ziyue looked at Chen Yuan with a slightly resentful gaze, appearing pitifully at him.
For those who didn’t know, they might really believe Su Ziyue to be so innocent lotus flower.
"You, Daoist Su, are not a weak woman; I can’t even control you." Chen Yuan laughed as he bantered with Su Ziyue.
"Good that you know." Su Ziyue giggled.
Ever since Chen Yuan’s cultivation surpassed hers, she couldn’t tease Chen Yuan effectively; her little tricks wouldn’t stand a chance before him.
"Pingyang is quite capable, and holds control in the court for quite a while; even if there’s no contribution, there’s hard work. You probably don’t like harem trivialities—how about making her the Imperial Concubine?"
Su Ziyue is not soone who cos and goes at anyone’s beck and call. Whether it’s her talent or the shared journey they’ve been through, from the beginning to where they are now, Chen Yuan deeply respects her.
As the future head of the harem, naturally, he has to seek her opinion.
"Phooey..." Su Ziyue rolled her eyes at Chen Yuan, snorting lightly:
"Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning. There’s still Dowager Yang in the harem, who is Pingyang’s mother. Are you trying to gather all the won together?"
Su Ziyue looked at Chen Yuan with a perceptive expression, aware of many secrets despite her usual uninvolvent, well understanding Chen Yuan’s intentions.
Chen Yuan cleared his throat, adjusting his face:
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could I do such things?"
"Really? Then how did Sister Xu co to be, how about Sister Yu? And the two foxes from the Heavenly Demon Hall, hmph... I see you’re even planning on getting Sister Su Qing, aiming for a master-disciple relationship...."
"Ziyue, you might be misjudging , I..."
"Why are you in a hurry to deny it? I don’t have any objections; I’m just curious, if..." Su Ziyue deliberated for a mont, chuckling quietly:
"When you and those won are together, let watch."
Chen Yuan’s forehead started to bead with sweat...
...
After the conversation, Chen Yuan left the Stargazing Tower for the harem, while Su Ziyue had many tasks at hand, especially as the Regent Princess when Chen Yuan didn’t want to show himself.
There were many matters that needed her decision.
As for the ironclad rule that the harem shall not ddle in politics, it did not apply to her. Moreover, Su Ziyue’s status and prestige were sufficient to support a whole sky, not to ntion dealing with several immortals.
