Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Fifteen minutes after He Chuan left, the Wudang and Shaolin Sect Masters quickly went to see the conditions of their half-step saint cultivators.

Luckily, the Kunlun Sect Master, Daoist Tieling, was there to block the attack.

Otherwise, if the half-step saint cultivators were crippled, Shaolin and Wudang Sects’ positions would be unstable.

After a simple discussion, the seven major sects were ready to withdraw from the war.

Back then, the nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun had already made them go through a tough time, and the seven great sects really didn’t want to repeat the same mistake.

They decided to follow the warning of the mysterious expert and return to their mountain gates to seclude themselves and not interfere in worldly matters.

This way, the sects could still keep their incense sticks and not be wiped out.

The strength of the mysterious expert was obvious, and he was even comparable to the nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun.

Luckily, the other party was not a bloodthirsty person. Otherwise, the Alliance Army and the seven major sects would have been covered in blood today.

The seven major sects recalled the experts from their respective sects and left one after another.

The speed at which they left was shocking!

This was because they did not know if the mysterious expert would suddenly return. It was better to leave as soon as possible.

The faster the better!

The eight vassal kings looked at each other and stood rooted to the ground. They were all became a mess in the wind.

This force was their greatest reliance, and now, in the blink of an eye, it had completely retreated. How could they continue to fight against the Imperial Court?

Even if the mysterious expert did not continue to attack, the Imperial Court and the Xiantian cultivators team were not something they could fight against.

It was all over!

How could they fight now?

The seven great sects retreated faster than anyone else.

They brought their own assets over, and their troops were all in the capital. If they escaped alone now, they would have lost everything when they returned.

They could only retreat with their army.

The rebellion was a serious crime deserving of eradication of the whole family line.

Although they cannot kill the whole royal family, the vassal kings would definitely have their whole family buried.

Zhou Shiming obviously would not give the vassal kings a chance. The Imperial Court’s guards took the initiative to charge out of the city.

The battle cries shook the sky.

The Imperial Court was paying close attention to what happened in the Alliance Army camp. Originally, Zhou Shiming had planned to use his hidden massacre weapon to kill the four half-step saint cultivators.

However, before they could make a move, news came from the other side. The four half-step saint cultivators had all been defeated. Furthermore, the mysterious expert used his sword intent to defeat four people in one move!

This result made everyone unable to believe it.

“Haha, God bless the Great Zhou. Another half-step saint cultivator has appeared!” Zhou Shiming did not care about how many moves he had to make to defeat the enemy. The best opportunity was to do nothing.

Now that the experts of the seven great sects had all left, the Alliance Army of the eight great vassal kings was nothing to worry about.

With the help of the Xiantian cultivators, the Imperial Court Army killed the Alliance Army until they had no strength to resist!

The eight great vassal kings were all captured and sent as death row prisoners to be interrogated!

The rebellion that almost toppled the Great Zhou Dynasty ended so easily under He Chuan’s attack.

No one had expected such an outcome.

Under He Chuan’s warning, the seven great sects declared that they would not leave their residences and would not interfere in worldly matters.

A mysterious half-step saint cultivator appeared with an invincible appearance and forcefully crushed the Shaolin and Wudang Sect half-step saint cultivators.

This made everyone talk about it and it became a topic of conversation after dinner.

Some people guessed that it was nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun.

However, it was quickly overthrown.

If it really was nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun, there was no need to hide it. Moreover, the mysterious expert used a sword technique, and nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhengchun did not know any sword techniques.

Everyone was guessing the identity of the mysterious expert.

And with the help of this mysterious expert, the unstable Great Zhou Dynasty stabilized its foundation. For the time being, no one dared to wake the sleeping tiger.

The mysterious expert did not come out to make a statement, and the Imperial Court fell silent as well as if the mysterious expert was someone from the palace.

Zhou Shiming could not help but sigh in his heart. He really hoped that this mysterious expert would have some sort of relationship with the Great Zhou Dynasty.

He was even willing to give the other party the title of the new nine thousand years old, a position where one person was truly above ten thousand people.

Unfortunately, after the battle, the mysterious expert seemed to have disappeared into thin air. No one knew who he was.

…

No matter how much the story of the mysterious expert was spread in the outside world, He Chuan continued to live a carefree life in the library. Every day, all he did was clean up, read books, and cultivate.

He did not take such a simple task to heart at all.

The reason why he took action was that he wanted to maintain a quiet cultivation environment and ignore the disturbances in the outside world.

He held a Daoist scripture in his hand. Right now, he preferred to read books that could calm his mind.

“Little Eunuch He!”

A familiar voice sounded. It was Princess Changning and Crown Prince Cheng’an, whom he had not seen for a long time.

Before they arrived, the voice had already reached He Chuan’s ears.

When they met again, Changning was much more stable than before, and Crown Prince Cheng’an was even more brand new.

During this period of time, Zhou Shimin had tried to get him to handle political affairs. As the future Crown Prince, he had to be able to hide his emotions from others.

But when they arrived at the library, Crown Prince Cheng’an revealed a smile that came from the bottom of his heart!

“Greetings, Your Highness Crown Prince, greetings, Eldest Princess.” He Chuan’s tone was always so calm, making people feel as if they were bathed in the spring breeze.

Princess Changning had just met him and began to tell him about the recent events, especially about that mysterious expert. Her tone was filled with admiration.

“Father said that that mysterious expert is already invincible in this world. It would be great if I could be as powerful as him!” Princess Changning rolled her eyes and said to He Chuan.

“Invincible in this world? I’m afraid it’s a bit of an exaggeration. You have to know that the world is so big, and there are as many experts as sands. Half-step saint cultivators are indeed very powerful, but there are still more powerful experts. Therefore, I’ll teach you to never be satisfied with your current achievements!” He Chuan said.

“Little Eunuch He, I also want to be as strong as him. Help me think of a way!” Princess Changning said coquettishly.

“You are a Princess who has no worries about food and clothes. Why do you have to go on the path of cultivation? Peace is the most important thing!” How could He Chuan not know what Changning was thinking?

“It’s meaningless to be a Princess, and I can’t help Emperor Father. Last time, I heard that father was poisoned, I secretly cried for a long time in the bedroom.” Princess Changning was not young, so of course, she knew what death meant.

If it wasn’t for the appearance of the mysterious expert, she and Cheng’an would probably have died together with their Emperor Father.

“Being a strong person requires a firm and unwavering heart. You work by fits and starts. You also have to endure suffering that ordinary people can’t endure!” He Chuan tried to persuade her. It wasn’t that easy to be a strong person.

“I can definitely do it. I’m not afraid of suffering! Little Eunuch He, could it be that the mysterious expert is you?” Princess Changning asked in a mysterious and low voice.

A woman’s sixth sense was indeed terrifying.

However, He Chuan denied it calmly.

“Little Eunuch He is so powerful, he can definitely help me become a powerful cultivator. Help me!” Princess Changning did not give up until she achieved her goal.

Crown Prince Cheng’an did not say anything. He hoped that Changning could control her own fate, and not be like the other princesses of the royal family. In the end, they could only become a tool for marriage.

“You have to do what I say first. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk!” He Chuan also thought that if Princess Changning was only doing it on a whim, she might give up after a while!

“That’s great! In the future, you can also become a respected cultivator. No one can bully my Emperor Father, Empress Mother, Cheng’an, and Little Eunuch He!” Princess Changning clapped her small hands happily, it was as if she could already see the scene of becoming a powerful cultivator.
