We Agreed On Experiencing Life, So Why Did You Immortals Become Real?

Qin Lan’er didn’t know what Her Majesty elder sister meant by “be selfish once.”

But when Qin Lan’er came back to her senses, she discovered that unknowingly she had already followed Her Majesty to Mount Tai.

The sky-piercing mountain and river fortune had transformed into dragon shapes, continuously circling in the firmament above.

Also affected by the mountain and river fortune, the spiritual power here was abnormally rich.

If the spiritual power in this place remained this rich for another thousand years, this place would probably become a first-rate blessed land and grotto heaven, sufficient to support an Ascension realm sect.

Qin Siyao slowly descended from the sky, drifting toward the mountain peak. Qin Lan’er also followed closely.

Sensing the mountain and river fortune surrounding Qin Siyao and Qin Lan’er, Mount Tai’s mountain-protecting great formation didn’t activate, but instead encompassed the two within.

Arriving at the mountain peak, Qin Siyao walked to the front of the Heaven-Worshiping Platform.

On the Heaven-Worshiping Platform there were no superfluous objects, only a great cauldron.

The great cauldron was named the Four Directions Under Heaven Cauldron. It was a treasure passed down from ancient times, and dynasties throughout history all used it for sacrifices.

When the Ten Thousand Laws Realm was unified, the Four Directions Under Heaven Cauldron would appear.

If the royal court split, the Four Directions Under Heaven Cauldron would disappear.

The last time the Four Directions Under Heaven Cauldron appeared was in a river.

That was the fourth year after the realm had just been unified. An unusual phenomenon appeared in Qinghai Prefecture, a river dried up within half a day, and mountain and river fortune shot up into the sky.

When local officials rushed there, they saw this great cauldron and immediately personally escorted it back to the imperial capital.

Qin Siyao took out the imperial jade seal from her bosom and placed it on the table.

This jade seal was not the previous Qin Kingdom national seal, but was created by fusing all the national seals of the Ten Thousand Laws Realm.

Lighting three sticks of incense, Qin Siyao led Qin Lan’er in worshiping heaven and earth. The moment she inserted the incense sticks into the cauldron, the mountain and river fortune transformed into a pillar of light shooting straight into the clouds.

Golden ripples undulated in the air.

Whether in the Ten Thousand Laws Realm or the Demon Realm, all cultivators at Nascent Soul stage and above raised their heads and looked toward the same place.

“Where are the sect masters of the Hundred Schools of Thought!”

Qin Siyao’s words were like heavenly Dao laws, spreading out from Mount Tai in all directions.

The next moment, golden rays of light flew in from all directions.

The golden bodies of over a hundred sect masters from Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism, Legalism, Mohism, Agriculture, Military Strategy, Yin-Yang School, Logicians, School of Diplomacy, School of Commerce, and others surrounded Mount Tai and sat.

The realms of the Hundred Schools’ sect masters varied. Some had already ascended, some were merely at Jade Simplicity.

“I wonder for what matter Your Majesty has summoned us here?” The Confucian Academy Palace Master stepped forward and performed a respectful bow to Qin Siyao.

“Nothing else. It’s just that this Empress has three imperial edicts, and you have a share in them.”

Qin Siyao’s voice spread throughout the entire realm.

“May the Ten Thousand Laws Realm receive the edict!”

Qin Siyao took out the first imperial edict.

“The Demon Realm has long covetously eyed our Ten Thousand Laws Realm. Today, this Empress commands the Ten Thousand Laws Realm to erect a Great Wall, spanning the border. As long as the Ten Thousand Li Great Wall stands unbroken for one day, the Demon Realm cannot fly across this Great Wall for one day.”

The instant Qin Siyao’s words fell, this imperial edict transformed into a flowing light and flew toward the border.

“Qin Siyao! You forcibly separate the two realms, how dare you do this!”

From the Demon Realm came the voice of an Ascension realm great demon.

“What this Empress’s Ten Thousand Laws Realm does, what concern is it of yours?”

Qin Siyao snorted coldly, her slender hand pressing downward.

The imperial edict thunderously fell to the ground, smashing into the border.

The earth violently trembled. A city wall towering into the clouds rose from the ground, extending for tens of millions of li.

“May the Hundred Schools of Thought receive the edict!”

Qin Siyao wiped the blood traces from the corner of her mouth and took out the second imperial edict.

“From this day forth, those below the mountain do matters below the mountain, those above the mountain manage matters above the mountain. Any cultivator entering the court may not exceed a hundred years.

Moreover, longevity and emperorship, only one may be chosen!

From the next Qin Kingdom ruler onward, those above Foundation Building realm cannot become emperor. Otherwise, karma will entangle them, and the heavenly Dao will not permit it!”

After Qin Siyao finished reciting, the second imperial edict floated into the air.

Even though the sect masters of the Hundred Schools didn’t want to receive the edict, under the heavenly Dao laws, they still had to accept it.

Finally, this imperial edict transformed into flowing light, merged into the great Dao, and became part of the heaven and earth laws.

“Qin Lan’er, receive the edict.”

After reciting two imperial edicts, Qin Siyao turned around and looked at the woman standing before her.

“With heaven and earth as witness, with the mountains and rivers observing, this Empress passes the throne to you at Mount Tai.

From this day forth, you are the Qin Kingdom’s ruler.”

Hearing Her Majesty recite the imperial edict, Qin Lan’er stood dumbly in place.

“Lan’er, receive the edict.” Seeing her dazed appearance, Qin Siyao smiled.

Qin Lan’er bit her thin lips lightly, stepped forward, and bowed, “Lan’er… receives the edict.”

Qin Siyao placed the imperial edict in Qin Lan’er’s hands, looking at her gently:

“From this day forward, you are the ruler of my Great Qin.

With this Ten Thousand Li Great Wall, from now on, the demon race won’t be able to invade the Ten Thousand Laws Realm so easily but it’s only ‘not so easily.’ The Ten Thousand Li Great Wall needs you to operate it well and remain vigilant against the demon race.

In the future, great cultivator powers won’t be so eager to become rulers of nations. After I leave, the covetousness of those above the mountain toward you will be much less.

And you can still cultivate as usual. Your realm won’t be restricted. However, after you, all successive emperors of the Ten Thousand Laws Realm cannot exceed Foundation Building realm.

Henceforth, rulers will change frequently. I don’t know if this is good or bad. After all, if emperors could originally cultivate, should they encounter a wise ruler, the realm could have longer peace.

Should they encounter a foolish ruler, the realm will suffer disasters for hundreds of years, thousands of years, even tens of thousands of years…

But at least, with you here, I believe the world will have at least ten thousand years of peace.

Ten thousand years is not short…

As for the Xiao family, you may exempt them from capital punishment three times. After three times, if Xiao family descendants commit crimes, you may punish them yourself. But no matter what, do not completely exterminate the Xiao family.”

“Your Majesty elder sister, are you leaving?”

Qin Lan’er’s eyes reddened, tears swirling in her eye sockets.

“Mm.”

Qin Siyao nodded, wiping away the tears at the corners of Qin Lan’er’s eyes.

“The realm is already at peace. The things Father, Mother, Elder Brother, and my husband entrusted to me, I’ve accomplished them all. Now, I should also go do what I want to do.

I’m sorry, Lan’er. Forgive my selfishness. Now I’ve handed everything over to you.”

“Where does Your Majesty elder sister want to go?” Qin Lan’er said reluctantly.

“I’m going to search this entire world for him.”

“But Your Majesty elder sister, the Frost Prince, he… he has already departed from the mortal world. Even if the Frost Prince reincarnated, in this vast sea of people, how could Your Majesty elder sister find him? Where could Your Majesty elder sister go…”

Before the three words “to search” could be spoken, Qin Lan’er stared dumbly at the woman before her.

In Qin Lan’er’s eyes, the corners of her mouth curved up slightly, her gentle smile seeming to contain all the colors in the world.

This was the first time Qin Lan’er had seen Her Majesty elder sister smile like this.

So Her Majesty elder sister truly could smile.

So when Her Majesty elder sister truly smiled, she was this beautiful…

“Elder sister also doesn’t know if she can find him. But, elder sister hates being lied to most of all.”

Qin Siyao’s eyes curved, and she tapped Qin Lan’er’s nose. Her brilliant smile was like the Milky Way flowing across the night sky.

“So, Elder sister wants to find him and when elder sister finds that promise-breaking big liar. I’ll definitely make him pay…”
