Chapter 565 -517: A Prophetic Word Comes True

“Uh…”

Qin Yu didn’t know what to say.

He couldn’t possibly tell the Empress Dowager that he’s been scheming against Tu Yaoyao this whole time?!

He finally succeeded, but if the Empress Dowager made a scene inside, and Tu Yaoyao no longer wanted to be with him, what then?

So much worry.

Will there be a fire in the backyard someday?

“Why are you still standing there? With me here, you don’t need to be afraid!”

The Empress Dowager was full of righteous indignation, her robes stretched tightly, and it seemed the Great Phoenix might emerge to stand up for him.

Poor Qin Yu!

With weak skills, he’s being bullied everywhere.

First the Tyrant, and now even the big fox dares to bully him!

If he doesn’t fight back, won’t the big fox forcibly take Qin Yu back to Qingqiu one day?

That’s not okay.

Little Ling’Er can’t do without Qin Yu, and besides, she quite likes spending time with him.

Qingqiu is the territory of the fox spirits.

If Qin Yu goes there, won’t he be drained dry by those fox spirits?!

Oh heavens, it’s too scary!

I must save him from this peril.

“But, His Majesty said…”

“With His Majesty not around, it’s up to me here!”

The Empress Dowager was anxious and interrupted Qin Yu directly.

Qin Yu was still too kind, considering so much, no wonder he gets bullied!

After speaking, the Empress Dowager turned to look and, seeing nothing out of the ordinary, continued signaling Qin Yu to quickly take her inside.

Today, she must chase those two foxes away.

“Empress Dowager, His Majesty requests your presence at the Imperial Study.”

Just then, Yan Zhi’s figure appeared suddenly, respectfully saluting her.

“Tell her I won’t go.”

The Empress Dowager raised her chin.

That foolish ruler, can’t see the situation?

Doesn’t he realize Qin Yu is being bullied, and still tries to restrain me, dreaming!

“Must I come to invite you?”

As she finished speaking, a stern voice suddenly came into the Empress Dowager’s ear.

A moment ago, the Empress Dowager was defiant with her chin up, but suddenly her aura weakened, and her gaze wavered.

“I must stand up for Qin Yu; I’ll go meet His Majesty later.”

The Empress Dowager was still stubborn, courageously opposing.

She had coveted that space for a long time, and now Qin Yu had finally returned, yet he kept disappearing for several days at a time, leaving her bored.

If she could enter that space like Little Ling’Er and the big fox, she wouldn’t have to worry about boredom anymore.

No one knew what kind of threatening message she received, but her aura continued to weaken, and soon she was biting her lip, looking aggrieved and furious.

Seeing this, Qin Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed the Empress had temporarily suppressed the Empress Dowager’s chaotic thoughts. Otherwise, he truly wouldn’t know how to handle the relationship between the Empress Dowager and Tu Yaoyao.

However, Qin Yu’s brows did not relax.

This is resolved temporarily, but what about the future?

Suddenly.

He felt a cold gaze fall on him.

It was the Empress!

Shudder!…

His body trembled all over.

This…

Could it be that the Empress was jealous?

Imperial Study.

The Empress sat upright; though she was handling affairs, a part of her mind was contemplating.

Originally, when the Qingqiu Fox Race appeared, she didn’t take it too seriously, and the Empress Dowager’s shouting seemed like mere chaos.

Historical records of the Human Race state that the Qingqiu Nine-tailed Divine Fox assisted a Human Emperor, ultimately exhausting Qingqiu Race’s fate, leaving them in decline.

This favor is enough for the Human Race to remember.

This is why the Empress could tolerate Tu Yaoyao’s presence in the Great Yan Imperial Palace.

Moreover, even the Ancient Divine Bell hanging over the Imperial Capital did not reject the Qingqiu Race.

Actually, since then, the Qingqiu Fox Race holds resentment towards the Human Race.

So the Empress Dowager’s yelling seemed inexplicable, yet, unexpectedly… it really happened?!

How could this be?

The Empress clearly saw how much the clan leader rejected the Human Race, so she wasn’t worried at all.

A part of her mind couldn’t help but glance at Qin Yu again.

How can this fellow have such skill, wouldn’t Tu Yaoyao resist?

With Tu Yaoyao’s cultivation, suppressing Qin Yu should be easy.

Even the Empress couldn’t figure out the reason, but in her heart, an alarm rang.

Qin Yu has too many women around him, indeed, as the Empress Dowager said, he needs closer observation.

Should she send the auspicious beast to keep watch?

As soon as this thought arose, the Empress dismissed it.

Ha!

It’s likely that in a few days, the auspicious beast would come out with a big belly.

Thinking thus, unbidden, the Empress’s palm rested on her own belly.

The life force within that mist in her abdomen seemed more pronounced.

Even when the belly grows, she has ways to conceal it, but… she can’t hide it from the Empress Dowager.

The Empress’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, and it was unclear what she was pondering.

…

Mountain Miao Hall.

“Hall Master, the phenomena in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains have emerged again.”

A fine-armored cultivator quickly walked to the front of the hall, respectfully speaking.

At the head of the hall, Wang Liweng frowned.

The Mountain Miao Hall is rich in regional resources, but phenomena indicating the emergence of exotic treasures are quite rare.

Yet in recent days, there have been multiple occurrences in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, attracting countless cultivators.

“Warn all major sects and Loose Cultivator City, the Ten Thousand Great Mountains are extremely dangerous; let them decide for themselves.”

Wang Liweng mused for a moment, hinting.

A cultivator’s path of cultivation requires competition for resources, and even as a Hall Master, he cannot forcibly order all of Mountain Miao Hall’s cultivators against rashness.

As for slaughter…

Resource competition is inevitable.

Mountain Miao Hall cannot restrict cultivators from battling each other; facing tremendous opportunities, no one would consider this.

“Yes!”

The armored cultivator quickly departed.

“Hall Master, this time the phenomena seem somewhat different.”

A guest minister in the seat below looked cautious and said.

“Oh?”

Wang Liweng’s eyes flashed with surprise, looking at the elder, asking, “Guest Minister Zhou, how do you see it?”

“In the past, phenomena have appeared, but whether treasures of heaven and earth or ruins appearing, the occurrences have patterns.”

Guest Minister Zhou pondered a moment, stating his unease.

“The first occurrence was five days ago, then three days later the second, and now only one day apart, another phenomenon appeared…”

“Hall Master, forgive my bluntness, I feel this phenomenon is designed to lure us in.”

Wang Liweng pondered but did not respond.

Indeed, the phenomena seem a bit off.

However, facing such extraordinary phenomena, the fervor among the cultivators is beyond his control.

Even as a Hall Master, all he can do is advise the regional cultivators to be cautious.
