Sun Yucheng turned his head and smiled. "This Ascending Dragon Mountain is too big, so it's almost impossible for us to find the Heavenly King Palm. However, it's different for the palace mistress and the others, so they might know about the Heavenly King Palm."
He turned to look at Xu Miaozhu. "Isn't that right, Palace Master?"
"Why are you looking for the Heavenly King Palm?" Xu Miaozhu asked coolly.
"Naturally, I want to learn the Heavenly King Palm." Sun Yucheng smiled. "I heard that the Heavenly King Palm is extremely powerful and invincible."
Xu Miaozhu shook her head and said, "It's easy for you to learn the Heavenly King Palm. I'll teach you."
"Huh?" Sun Yucheng looked at him in surprise.
Xu Miaozhu said, "The first Mistress of the Guang Han Palace was the Heavenly King Palm's daughter. The Heavenly King Palm Wu Cheng is our Grandmaster."
Sun Yucheng widened his eyes. "Palace Master, do you know the Heavenly King Palm too?"
"Yes." Xu Miaozhu nodded lightly.
Sun Yucheng asked, "The Heavenly King Palm is indeed powerful, isn't it?"
Xu Miaozhu shook her head and said, "Although the Heavenly King Palm is an ancient martial art, it is not suitable for the present. It is a martial art that is destined to be eliminated."
"Why?" Sun Yucheng was surprised.
Xu Miaozhu said, "The Heavenly King Palm requires a huge amount of spiritual energy and is extremely difficult to cultivate. Even in ancient times, there were very few people who succeeded in cultivating it. Back then, Grandmaster Wu Cheng had several fortuitous encounters and only managed to cultivate the Heavenly King Palm by chance."
Sun Yucheng frowned and nodded slowly.
The more mystical the art, the more difficult it was to cultivate. This was for sure, and he was already prepared for it.
Xu Miaozhu said lightly, "In this world where spiritual energy is scarce, it's even more impossible to cultivate the Heavenly King Palm. The power of the Heavenly King Palm is inferior to ordinary palm techniques."
"I see." Sun Yucheng sighed.
He was a little disappointed. Originally, he had thought that once he mastered the Heavenly King Palm, he would be able to dominate the world. Even if he couldn't become an emperor, he would still be free and unfettered. In this world, it was useless to be a prince without good martial arts.
Xu Miaozhu said, "I'll ask Di 'er to send you a secret manual in a while. You can study it. Maybe you'll be able to cultivate it with your extraordinary talent."
"Thank you, Palace Master." Sun Yucheng gave a fist salute.
Xu Miaozhu replied faintly, "Di 'er and the others' lives are more important than the Heavenly King Palm Art. If there's anything else you need, just tell me. I'll try my best to satisfy you."
Sun Yucheng turned to look at Elder Su and the others.
Chu Li asked, "Palace Master, do you have Heavenly King Palm Senior Wu's handwritten letter?"
"Handwritten notes?" Xu Miaozhu shook her head lightly. "No."
Chu Li glanced at her and knew that she was not lying. He felt that it was a pity that he had come to the Vast Cold Palace for nothing.
"The four of you should stay here for a while longer," Xu Miaozhu said, "Don't be in a hurry to descend the mountain. Wait until the Profound Pavilion loses their patience before you leave."
"Young Master, we should leave as soon as possible." Old Su frowned and said, "If we leave now, we can still escape. If we delay any longer, there will be more and more people. I'm afraid that we won't be able to escape even if we want to."
Xu Miaozhu said, "If you can't leave, then stay here. They won't be able to break in."
Elder Su shook his head.
He was worried that Sun Yucheng's identity would be exposed. In that case, the Zheng Dynasty would not only send out masters from the Mysterious Pavilion, but also the Zheng Dynasty's elite masters. No matter how capable they were, they would not be able to protect the prince.
Sun Yucheng was an ordinary name, and there were many people with this name in the world. Therefore, he could speak his name openly. However, if his identity as a prince of the Great Li Dynasty was exposed, there would be endless trouble.
Sun Yucheng glanced at Elder Su.
Elder Su's expression was solemn as he slowly shook his head.
Sun Yucheng then looked at Chu Li.
Chu Li pondered for a while. "Listen to Elder Su, we should leave as soon as possible."
"Alright then, we'll leave today," Sun Yucheng said.
Xu Miaozhu said, "Di 'er, bring me the secret manual of the Heavenly King Palm!"
"Yes." Liu Di answered crisply and glided away.
She returned quickly and presented a box to Xu Miaozhu.
Xu Miaozhu opened the box and took out a yellowed silk book for Sun Yucheng. "This is written by the founder himself. It can't be given to anyone, but Young Master Sun can make a copy of it."
"Yes." Sun Yucheng smiled.
Although he did not have much hope, it was still good to have a look.

Everyone glided down the bamboo branches and left Ascending Dragon Mountain.
When they landed at the foot of Ascending Dragon Mountain, Sun Yucheng turned around and stared in the direction of the bamboo hut. He sighed and felt melancholic.
He initially thought that he could have an unforgettable relationship in the Vast Cold Palace, but he did not expect to leave in a hurry. He did not get to see more beauties and did not win Liu Di's heart.
"Young Master," Elder Ren said, "since you've obtained the Heavenly King Palm, it's better to return as soon as possible. Don't go anywhere else."
"It's not easy for us to come to the Zheng Dynasty. Are we going back just like that?" Sun Yucheng was indignant.
He looked away reluctantly and wished that he could stay in the bamboo hut in the Vast Cold Palace and see those beauties every day.
Elder Ren said, "Mysterious Pavilion won't let this go easily. Let's avoid them for now and come back next time!"
"Ah …" Sun Yucheng sighed. "Alright, alright. I'll listen to you, Elder Ren. Let's go back!"
Chu Li kept thinking about the Heavenly King Palm.
The secret manual of the Heavenly King Palm that he had copied for him had been imprinted in his mind.
It was as if the Heavenly King Palm was tailor-made for him.
The Heavenly King Palm had a high requirement for spiritual energy as it required dense spiritual energy. The current world was indeed not suitable for cultivating the Heavenly King Palm, but he had the Life and Death Scripture, which provided him with endless spiritual energy.
When cultivating the Heavenly King Palm, as long as he channeled the heart technique and the Life and Death Scripture at the same time, his cultivation speed would be even faster than 2,000 years ago.
If he could successfully cultivate the Heavenly King Palm, it would be even more powerful than the Divine Light Fist. It would be more powerful than any of the fist and leg techniques that he had cultivated so far, and it would greatly improve his combat strength.
He could not wait to start cultivating it right away, so he tried to figure out the Heavenly King Palm as he walked. He wanted to comprehend it as soon as possible, so he was so focused that he had unknowingly walked five miles.
Sun Yucheng and the others suddenly stopped. When Chu Li looked up, he saw a group of people blocking the middle of the road and staring at them coldly.
Sun Yucheng frowned. There were ten people in this group, and each of them was a master with white eyebrows and beards. They were staring at him as if they were looking at a rare treasure, which made him tremble in fear.
"Are you Sun Yucheng, the Prince of the Li Dynasty?" An elder with white hair and a ruddy complexion took a step forward and said in a deep voice, "How dare you come to the Zheng Dynasty and stir up trouble. If we don't take you down, the Zheng Dynasty will seem weak!"
Sun Yucheng's face darkened.
His identity had been exposed. Clearly, it was his brother's doing again. They wanted to kill him with a borrowed knife.
If the Zheng Dynasty killed him, even the Emperor would not be able to do anything about it. What a vicious scheme!
Chu Li took a step forward, and with another step, he was already in front of this group of people. He swung his arms, and two cold lights shot out.
"Ding …" The two sword lights turned into two light shields in front of them, blocking Chu Li's Light Blade.
Chu Li frowned. They came prepared.
He swung two energy blades again.
"Ding ding …" The energy blades collided with the sword lights, and the sound of metal clashing could be heard, but they could not break through their sword lights.
The two elders' swordsmanship was exquisite, and they had cultivated for about two hundred years. Their cooperation was seamless, and it was obvious that it was a mysterious sword formation that could dissolve the power of his flying blades.
The inner energy contained in his flying blades had a trace of the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture's characteristics, and it had several changes. It was not easy for the two elders' sword lights to block it.
