After the immortals left, the Palace of the Fallen Immortals could only report the news of the Elixir of Immortality being stolen to the Emperor.
During this period of time, the Crown Prince was deposed and the country was unstable. Then, there was the wrath of the gods and the capital was in a drought. The Emperor was extremely busy and when he heard that the Elixir of Immortality was stolen again, he vomited blood in anger.
"This is the will of the heavens! This is the will of the heavens! "The Emperor felt hopeless and seemed to have aged a few years. He could not catch his breath and fainted.
"Quick, call the imperial physician!"
Seeing that the Emperor had fainted, the servants rushed forward to save him.
With the Crown Prince gone and the Emperor in a coma, the princes started fighting again.
The Demon Concubine was in the palace and when she heard that the Emperor was in trouble, she rushed to visit.
The other concubines were there as well. The Demon Concubine used the fact that she was favored and forced everyone to wait on the Emperor's bed.
Coincidentally, the Emperor woke up, "Water … water … I want to drink water …"
"Your Majesty!" The Demon Concubine quickly brought the Emperor a cup of ginseng tea.
After the Emperor calmed down, he asked, "How is the situation in the court?"
"Everything is fine. Your Majesty, rest is more important." An official came in and knelt down, advising the Emperor to rest for now.
"Hmph! My good-for-nothing sons might have already overturned the heavens … Cough, cough … "The Emperor blushed and could not help but cough a few times.
"Oh right, where is Fourth Prince?"
There was news that Li Jingxun was taken away by an immortal and the Li Family could not save him in time.
"Fourth Prince sent people to investigate but the situation might not be good. There are many spiritual mountains in China. I wonder which one Miss Li went to? "
"I heard that Li Jingxun has been cultivating in the mountains since he was young. Is he the immortal she met outside?" The Emperor asked and no longer asked about Li Jingxun, "Beloved, send something to the Prince's Residence on my behalf. Comfort Fourth Prince and don't let him be too sad."
What could they do now? Could the court find Li Jingxun and take back the Elixir of Immortality?
When the imperial physician came in, the Demon Concubine fed the Emperor the Elixir of Immortality and waited for him to rest before returning to the palace.
After sitting for a while, the Demon Concubine took out the Elixir of Immortality that Tushan gave her.
The jade box emitted a spiritual light, and after it was opened, a fragrance assailed the nostrils.
"Longevity?" Thinking of the Emperor's old age, she finally made up her mind.
That night, the Devil Concubine went to the Imperial Palace alone. After some hesitation, she handed the elixir to the Emperor.
The moment she took out the elixir of immortality, the Devil Concubine let go of all her obsessions. The entanglement of the past seemed to vanish at this moment.
Although immortality is what I seek, to destroy my own heart for the sake of immortality is not my way!
The Emperor was muddle-headed and his mental state was not good. However, when he saw the longevity medicine in the jade box, he became spirited. "This … why is this thing in your hands?" This seemed to be the longevity medicine refined by Tu Long.
"I took it from the Crown Prince."
Seeing the longevity medicine, the Emperor looked at the Devil Concubine with a complicated expression. It wasn't that he didn't know about the secret of the person who slept next to him, but he didn't expect that the Demon Concubine would reveal it now.
What did this mean? Could it be that she didn't want to hide it anymore?
"It's time for me to leave." The Devil Concubine sighed. "His Majesty has already sent people to investigate my background. A few hundred years ago, I fell in love with the last emperor of the previous dynasty and gave birth to a daughter for him. Although I obtained the dragon energy of the previous dynasty and attained Dao, I ultimately fell into the tribulation of love. "
In order to overcome the tribulation of love, the Devil Concubine entered the capital again and became a concubine in the harem, intending to see through the tribulation of love. Who knew that she would be moved again and develop feelings for the current emperor.
"His Majesty yearns for immortality. I shall give you this longevity medicine. It can be considered as fulfilling our relationship as husband and wife." After a pause, the Devil Concubine continued, "However, I have a piece of advice. There will never be an immortal emperor in the world. It's not just immortals and demons who don't allow it. His Majesty's ancestors, the previous emperors, would also not allow an immortal descendant to rule the dynasty in the mortal world. "
That way, the Great Hong Imperial Dynasty wouldn't be ruled by the founding ancestor god alone. Instead, it would be ruled by the immortal emperor.
"The moment you take the longevity medicine, His Majesty will be harmed by the ancestor god of the netherworld. Unless His Majesty gives up the throne and transcends to cultivate the Immortal Dao. "
The beautiful woman handed the jade box to the Emperor.
The Emperor was silent. He held the jade box and didn't speak for a long time.
So, are you giving me the longevity medicine because you want me to leave with you?
The palace was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The Emperor held the jade box and struggled internally. The moment the Devil Concubine gave him the longevity medicine, she truly let go of the knot in her heart and became enlightened.
At this moment, her state of mind was truly complete. Her demonic soul was sublimated under this state of freedom. Her jade face had its own spiritual light. Her demonic soul was cleansed of impurities and she comprehended the true immortality of the Ground Fairies.
After pondering for a long time, the candles on both sides gradually dimmed. Finally, the Emperor returned the longevity medicine to the Devil Concubine.
"I pursue immortality because I want to rule the world forever and protect the people. If I transcend and leave, I will lose my original intention. My lifespan is approaching its end. Instead of leaving behind a mess, I might as well leave behind a stable foundation for my descendants. "
The Emperor shook his head and refused to accept it.
"Take this medicine! The Rain Master is right. I … ultimately don't have the fortune of immortality! " The Emperor looked at the Devil Concubine again and felt that her entire temperament had changed. Although she was standing in front of him, she seemed far away and unfathomable.
The Devil Concubine reached out to take the longevity medicine and smiled faintly. "After 400 years, I have finally seen through the tribulation of love. Your Majesty, thank you. "
The moment the Emperor rejected the longevity medicine, auspicious clouds rose above the Devil Concubine's head. The longevity medicine turned into a wisp of vital qi and entered the beautiful woman's head. In an instant, majestic vital qi cleansed her meridians and marrow, allowing her to break through the Heavenly Cycle Profound Entrances. Her physical body was the true body of the Ground Fairies.
"Your Majesty, I promise you this. In the future, when the Great Hong is destroyed, I will definitely come from beyond the heavens and preserve your bloodline legacy. "
Under the Heaven's Heart's perception, the Devil Concubine could already see the destruction of the Great Hong Dynasty decades later.
Primordial spirit, Dao fruit, and true body in one. After the Yunxiao Pavilion's owner, Qing Hong, the capital city attracted the advancement of the second Ground Fairies.
Moonlight shone into the palace, and a figure flew into the sky. The woman circled the palace three times before flying towards the moon. "Your Majesty, take care!"
"Flying into the sky to attain the Dao. Is this the Karmic Title of Ground Fairies that will not age for a thousand years?" The Emperor's eyes flashed with envy. He then suppressed his thoughts and pondered how to stabilize the situation in the imperial court.
The Devil Concubine promised to preserve a bloodline legacy, and the Emperor was slightly comforted. But on second thought, didn't this mean that the destruction of the Great Hong Dynasty was already destined?
"Even the Ground Fairies see it this way? I wonder how much preparation the Ancestor God has in the Netherworld Dragon Court to break the Mystic Gate's momentum? "
…
The Devil Concubine did not return to the mountain directly after leaving the palace. Instead, she landed in a pavilion in the western suburbs.
The cold wind blew gently, and Tushan waited quietly for a long time. He set up a banquet and cupped his hands. "Concubine, congratulations." Beside him stood Tao Wanru and Du Jinghua.
Du Jinghua was released by him, and Tao Wanru was invited over by an invitation.
"Master!"
The two women were surprised and delighted as they hurriedly called for help.
The Devil Concubine glanced at the two of them and told them to calm down. She smiled at Tushan. "What's there to be happy about after spending 400 years comprehending the Quintessence?" The Devil Concubine descended, her aura faintly discernible, and there was a special kind of tribulation aura entangling her.
She sized up Tushan. Even though she had cultivated to become a Ground Fairies, she was not 100% confident that she could take down Tushan.
As expected of a rising star of the Demon Dao, he was given the title of "Demon Star." The Ten Thousand Demon Golden List on him is something that even I, who have cultivated to become a Ground Fairies, cannot suppress. Therefore, she could not fall out with him.
"At least, Concubine has already escaped the tribulation. You just need to return to the mountain and undergo the tribulation in seclusion." Tushan raised his cup and toasted. The Devil Concubine smiled faintly and accepted it calmly. At this moment, the Devil Concubine did not have much of a seductive aura. Instead, she seemed to have seen through the mortal world and entered the Dao from a demon. She looked at her second disciple beside her. Although she was not worried about the tribulation, the two female disciples were different.
It was precisely because of this that Tushan had taken the initiative to help the Devil Concubine in exchange for her support during the tribulation.
When the Devil Concubine recalled how Tushan had helped her transcend the tribulation for no reason, she came to a realization. She went with the flow and said, "I made arrangements during the tribulation. Now that I have perfected my Great Dao, I need to return to the mountain to transcend the tribulation. The mortal world is beyond my reach. Please take care of these two disciples for me. " The Devil Concubine took out a jade tablet and handed it to Tushan. "This is the arrangement I made during the tribulation. It also includes some of my manpower. I will entrust them to you in the future. "
Following that, the Devil Concubine said to the two girls, "Originally, I should have brought the two of you back to the mountain. However, the two of you have yet to be done with the mortal world. There is still some merit to be fulfilled in the mortal world. Although Mr. Tushan is a demon, he is also a mighty figure. If the two of you encounter any difficulties, you can seek his protection. "
With that said, the Devil Concubine transformed into a wisp of green smoke and left.
After she left, the two girls looked at Tushan uneasily.
Du Jinghua didn't know Tushan, but how could Tao Wanru not know Tushan's methods?
This was a famous expert of the younger generation.
"Alright, don't say anymore. Accompany me to watch the last scene in the capital." Tushan stretched lazily. "A Demonic Dao Ground Fairies has appeared. The Celestial Sect of Wonders will be in chaos for a few more days. And in the imperial court, I'm afraid that the last massacre is about to begin. "
