A Change in the Situation
High Heaven Pavilion, within the courtyard.
Chu Xingyun was currently examining Chu Xingchen's body.
Although Chu Xingchen had already regained his consciousness with the help of the Spirit Awakening Grass, the injuries on his body had not completely healed. In fact, after being sealed in ice for more than ten years, his Spirit Sea had already reached the point of being dried up.
Fortunately, Chu Xingyun had a lot of precious spiritual materials on hand. After refining them into elixirs, it would only take a few days for Chu Xingchen to completely recover.
Chu Xingchen looked at Chu Xingyun in front of him and suddenly smiled. He said in a gratified tone, "I didn't think that your strength would be so much stronger than I expected. Not only did you kill Liu Song, you also angered Yin Tiancheng so much that his hair turned white on the spot. It's a pity that my body hasn't fully recovered and I couldn't witness this scene with my own eyes."
As he spoke, Chu Xingchen's eyes emitted a trace of coldness.
The events of that year were still vivid in his mind.
At that time, the Ancient Star Sect led a group of people to West Wind City. In order to capture Liu Mengyan, they directly went on a killing spree and killed many people of the Chu Clan. They used this to threaten Liu Mengyan and force her to submit.
Among those who killed, there were people from the Dreamy Cloud Martial House. Yin Tiancheng and Liu Song were among them!
Therefore, when Chu Xingchen heard about the miserable state of the Dreamy Cloud Martial House, he was especially excited. He felt refreshed as if he had gotten his revenge.
"I won't let go of anyone who made a move against the Chu Clan. The Dreamy Cloud Martial House is only the first." Chu Xingyun withdrew his spiritual energy and opened his palm to take out a storage ring.
"Father, in this storage ring, other than Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts, there are also ten thousand drops of Spiritual Liquid. During this period of recovery, you can try to cultivate. It will be very beneficial to the recovery of your Spirit Sea." Chu Xingyun handed the storage ring to Chu Xingchen.
Ten thousand drops of Spiritual Liquid?
Chu Xing Chen was startled. When he saw the Cultivation Technique inside the Storage Ring, his face became even more stunned.
There weren't many Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts in the Storage Ring, only one of each. However, these two Cultivation Techniques had reached the Heaven Rank. Especially this Cultivation Technique, it was actually at the Heaven Rank Middle Rank.
"Yun 'er, where did you get these martial arts skills?" Chu Xingchen took a few deep breaths.
How precious was a mid-grade Heaven class cultivation technique? As long as it appeared in the Liuyun Dynasty, it would definitely cause a storm of blood. However, Chu Xingyun acted very casually, as if he didn't care about it at all.
"I can't explain the origin of these martial arts in a short time. When the time is right, I will slowly explain it. Before that, I hope father won't ask too many questions."
The matter of rebirth was too mysterious. It was related to the mysterious Reincarnation Stone.
Not to mention Chu Xingchen, even Chu Xingyun himself couldn't fully understand it. Therefore, he chose to hide it for the time being to prevent Chu Xingyun from worrying.
"Since Yun 'er doesn't want to say more, then I won't ask." Chu Xingchen carefully put away the Storage Ring, then stood up and walked out.
Outside the courtyard, Hua Yunhe sat quietly with his legs crossed.
Chu Xingyun and Chu Xingchen walked over. As soon as they sat down, Chu Xingyun couldn't wait to ask, "Palace Lord Hua, what did you mean by the thing you didn't want to happen the most? Is it related to this banquet? "
Hua Yunhe opened his eyes and didn't answer directly. Instead, he said, "Chu Xingyun, when you came back, it was the day the army returned to the capital. Did you see Wu Jing Xue and the Jingtian Army?"
"Of course," Chu Xingyun said honestly. He didn't hide anything.
At the side, Chu Xingchen listened quietly. When he heard the name Wu Jing Xue, his body suddenly trembled. It was obvious that Chu Xingchen still remembered Wu Jing Xue.
"A few months ago, the Jingtian Army invaded the Iron Peak Nation and captured the Emperor of the Iron Peak Nation. Wu Jing Xue specially escorted the Emperor of the Iron Peak Nation back to the capital. His purpose was not only to embarrass the Flowing Cloud Royal Family, but also to demonstrate his power. He wanted to show everyone that he, Wu Jing Xue, was the only way he could legitimately replace the Flowing Cloud Royal Family!"
Hua Yunhe's words made Chu Xingyun's heart sink. He said, "According to what you said, Wu Jing Xue returned to the capital this time to make preparations to usurp the throne?"
"That's right." Hua Yunhe nodded and continued, "Back then, the appearance of the Ancient Star Sect allowed Wu Jing Xue to obtain many treasures. He also roped in many powers in the capital and formed his own faction to oppose the Flowing Cloud Royal Family."
"After these years of encroachment, the Flowing Cloud Royal Family's strength was greatly reduced. On the other hand, Wu Jing Xue became more and more powerful. He formed the Jingtian Army and went on expeditions everywhere. Gradually, many of the surrounding kingdoms were either wiped out or taken over by force. They all fell under his control."
"Therefore, Wu Jing Xue led his army back to the capital this time to replace the Flowing Cloud Royal Family and become the ruler of the Liuyun Dynasty. This way, he can continue to expand his power and lead his army north to attack other dynasties."
"This Wu Jing Xue is really a warmonger. After conquering the surrounding kingdoms, he is still not satisfied and wants to conquer other dynasties!" Chu Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly. He was a little surprised by Wu Jing Xue's warmongering ambition.
Hua Yunhe continued, "On the surface, this banquet was organized by the Flowing Cloud Royal Family, but in reality, it was forced by Wu Jing Xue. His goal is to gather the powers of the Flowing Cloud Royal Family and divide them into different factions."
Buzz!
Chu Xingyun's expression froze. He immediately understood and said, "No wonder the Flowing Cloud Royal Family sent Tang Qingyu personally. It seems that they want to use my relationship with Wu Jing Xue to make me stand on the same side as them."
Years ago, Wu Jing Xue formed the Radical Faction, but suddenly changed sides and submitted to the Ancient Star Sect. This allowed the Ancient Star Sect to do whatever they wanted in the Liuyun Dynasty and search for Liu Mengyan wantonly.
If the Ancient Star Sect was the main culprit, then Wu Jing Xue was the accomplice.
The enmity between Chu Xingyun and Wu Jing Xue could not be erased. There would be a battle in the future.
Moreover, Chu Xingyun was now the owner of the Soaring Cloud Merchant Guild. The Soaring Cloud Merchant Guild was very powerful and had countless experts under his command.
These two points gave the Flowing Cloud Royal Family hope. They wanted to rope in Chu Xingyun and fight against Wu Jing Xue together. This was the only way for the Flowing Cloud Royal Family to survive.
"Indeed."
Hua Yunhe sighed and said, "The Jingtian Army is too strong. They can conquer a country on the battlefield, let alone the declining Flowing Cloud Royal Family. This time, Wu Jing Xue returned to the Flowing Cloud Royal Family, not only to usurp the throne, but also to control all the powers. Those who obey him will prosper, and those who oppose him will perish. Even the Five Martial Houses were not spared."
"If there are no accidents, the Flowing Cloud Royal Family will fall into chaos after this banquet. The power structure of the Liuyun Dynasty will change because of this!"
