Chapter 853
Within the Kingdom of Zi Yue.
Inside the quiet palace, there were many guards and guards. Sun Xianyan was alone as she walked towards the main hall at the center of the palace at a leisurely pace.
At this moment, her heroic face was filled with a congealed expression, and her entire person seemed especially solemn.
She came to the entrance of the main hall and stopped. She stood by the entrance of the hall and waited quietly until a well-dressed servant came out and shouted, “The empress dowager has an order for the Grand Princess to enter the hall.”
“Appearance obeys the decree.”
Sun Xianyan called out in a low voice and followed the attendant inside.
Upon entering the hall, the solemness in the air grew increasingly intense, as though even the air itself was frozen solid.
Sun Qiyan lowered her head and walked to the center of the hall step by step. She did not know who was on either side of her, nor did she dare to look, and even did she know who was sitting in the hall. She still did not know, because ever since she entered the hall, she had always kept her head lowered. Of course, not raising his head at this moment was also a good thing.
“Greetings, Empress Dowager.”
Sun Qiyan knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the people above.
“Get up and talk, son.”
The people at the top of the hall opened their mouths.
“Empress Dowager Xie.”
Sun Xiangyan stood up and raised her head to look at the person above.
Above it was a white-haired, elderly looking old woman. She held a dark brown staff in her hand and wore a large robe with phoenix stripes. She had a serious expression on, but there was still a trace of love in the depths of her eyes.
“I’ve already heard about the destruction of the forbidden area. Sun Tanuki said that you were the one who started it all, right?”
Her Majesty asked.
Sun Xianyan was silent for a moment, then said, “Reporting to the empress dowager, this matter … Maybe it does have something to do with looks. ”
“So you admit it?”
The empress dowager’s brows creased.
“Although it has something to do with her looks, I don’t know why. If this thing really happened because of her looks, then she is willing to bear the responsibility. But no one knows the whole story, so she still wants to investigate it carefully.”
The empress dowager was silent for a moment, looking at the people below her. Then she secretly glanced at the people on both sides who didn’t say anything, and began to ponder.
“Send Sun Li into the palace.”
The empress dowager said indifferently.
“Understood.”
The well-dressed attendant nodded, and Huan’er quickly left the hall, giving a brief greeting before leading a young man into the hall.
He saw that the person was Sun Xiang.
“Grandson, grandchild, beaver greets the empress dowager.”
Sun Li walked to Sun Xianyan’s side and gave a loud shout before kowtowing.
“Sun Di, please stand up.”
“Empress Dowager Xie.”
Sun Di shouted again. He stood up, but he was not nervous.
The empress dowager looked at him and said, “Sun Biao, you said that the forbidden grounds of the Practice left behind by our ancestors were destroyed by her beauty. Now that she’s here, why don’t you tell us what happened?”
Sun Biao nodded his head in greeting. “Yes, Your Majesty.”
He was silent for a moment, then said: “Reporting to the empress dowager, Sun Li did not see the entire process of what had happened. On that day, Sun Wei passed by a palace not far from the Practice’s forbidden area, when he suddenly heard the loud noise of the forbidden area, the earth trembled, and the profound qi flew all over, he immediately went to check what had happened. However, just as Sun Li Yu arrived, he saw his elder sister walking out of the forbidden area. This matter cannot be blamed entirely on elder sister. If you are responsible for it, you will have to capture these two people. ”
Sun Li’s voice was neither fast nor slow, but every word was spat out very clearly.
The empress dowager slowly raised her head and asked, “Who are these two?”
“This… I’m afraid you’ll have to ask Big Sis. ” Sun Di said in a low voice, but his eyes flashed with a strange light.
Sun Xianyan bit her lower lip but didn’t hide anything as she bowed and said, “Reporting to the empress dowager, these two … One of them is the daughter of the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace’s Palace Master, which is also her junior sister. The other person is her disciple … ”
“Why are these two in the Practice’s forbidden grounds?”
Her Majesty asked lightly, and this question hit the nail on the head.
“Junior sister has just accepted a new disciple, her talent is exceptional, the conditions for the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace to cultivate are rather simple and crude, junior sister might not have buried her talent, so she was allowed to enter the Ultimate Martial World, and come to my country to cultivate quietly.”
“If you’re meditating, then meditate. Why did you meditate in the forbidden grounds of the Practice?” Sun Li chuckled: “Big Sis, don’t you know what the Practice’s Forbidden Area is?”
“Although the forbidden grounds is a forbidden grounds, it does not mean that others are not allowed to enter. I have already consulted my uncle about this matter, and they all agreed to let Qing’er enter.”
“Then why didn’t you ask for my opinion?”
Her Majesty spoke up.
“The empress dowager has already been out for several months, so she feels that it will be difficult for the empress dowager to return in a short period of time. Coincidentally, Qing’er has reached his bottleneck and is in urgent need of a challenge to help him break through, so … So that’s why she allowed Qing’er to enter the forbidden grounds of the Practice … ”
“The forbidden land was left for you Sun family descendants by your ancestors. How could you open it up to an outsider?”
Her Majesty frowned slightly.
“Ugh …” “This …”
“Besides, now that the forbidden area has been destroyed, it has become a foregone conclusion. This must be explained, or else how can my Sun family explain this to our ancestors?” The empress dowager said solemnly, then shouted, “Go and capture that little girl from the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace and that Qing’er. Put him in jail first.”
“Understood.”
A deputy general gave the order and immediately left the hall.
“Wait a moment, Empress Dowager, this matter has not been investigated completely. Although the woman opened the forbidden gate for others without permission, the destruction of the forbidden grounds might not be Qing’er’s responsibility, and her junior sister is even more innocent. May Empress Dowager think twice, please investigate this matter clearly before acting.”
“Do you mean that the forbidden area will be destroyed for no reason?” Her Majesty said indifferently.
“No …” It’s just that we weren’t at the scene of the incident in the forbidden area back then. We only rushed over afterwards, so no one knows what happened in the forbidden area. Empress Dowager, if we act recklessly like this … “I’m afraid it’s inappropriate …”
“How dare you!”
The empress dowager lowered her voice. “Appearance, are you lecturing me?”
When Sun Qiyan heard this, she quickly lowered her body and said, “I don’t dare, but …” Junior Sister is the daughter of the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace’s Palace Master, although the strength of the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace is not comparable to our Immortal Nation, but it is inextricably linked to the realm, not to mention … Furthermore, our beautiful appearance once acknowledged the palace master of the immortal palace as her master. If the news of our junior apprentice sister’s accident spreads, I’m afraid our face of the immortal country will not be able to be saved … ”
The empress dowager frowned when she heard this.
In fact, she knew about the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace, and of course, she also knew that Sun Xianyan had once entered the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace. Although the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace was a sect located on the Tianwu Continent, and their strength could not be compared with that of an immortal country, she knew that she had entered the Divine Cloud Immortal Palace before. Measuring a power’s strength didn’t just depend on one’s strength; it also depended on one’s meridians and connections.
“But… If there is no explanation for the matter of the Forbidden Area, then my country of Immortals will definitely experience laughter filled with the filth of ten thousand worlds in the future. ” The empress dowager continued, “Even if the forbidden area wasn’t caused by those two, it must still be related to them!”
“Empress Dowager …”
I will give you a month’s time, you will go investigate this matter first. If the results of the investigation proves that the Practice’s forbidden grounds were not destroyed by the two of them, then I will let them go. If the forbidden grounds were destroyed by the two of them, then … I can only follow the laws of the immortal country! ”
The empress dowager spoke seriously before closing her eyes and waving her hands. She said lightly, “You may leave.”
When Sun Qiyan heard this, she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but the words were swallowed back down her throat.
The empress dowager was her grandmother, and she had always doted on her, but the matters of today were intolerable to private feelings. Sun Xianyan also understood the empress dowager’s personality. If she made a decision, it would be impossible for her to change it.
Helpless, she could only retreat.
Sun Biao, who was at the side, remained silent, but the complacency in his eyes slowly revealed itself.
“Empress Dowager, your grandson will be taking his leave.” Sun Li laughed.
“Yes.”
Sun Li followed closely behind her as they left the hall.
Within the palace, no one dared to be impudent. The power of the Kingdom of Zi Yue was known to all powers in the world.
After the two of them left the palace, Sun Xiangyan turned around and coldly looked at Sun Tanuki, who had left the palace with them.
“Yo, big sis, don’t look at me like that. I’m so scared.”
Sun Li pretended to be afraid and said with a smile.
Sun Xiangyan’s eyes were filled with rage as she stared at Sun Qixiu. She was gnashing her teeth, while her heroic face was filled with anger.
Sun Di, I have yet to obtain the method to cure royal father’s illness, not to mention manage the country of immortals. Before the time comes, the master of the country will change his master, but you have to remember, it is not up to you or me to decide who will take this position, but it was decided by royal father. The empress dowager decided on it, it was decided by the adults.
“Hehe, elder sister, from what you’re saying, it seems like this seat is yours.”
“I, Sun Xianyan, don’t care about this position.”
“Doesn’t care? If you don’t care, then go, leave the Immortal Kingdom ah, why did you suddenly come back when royal father was very sick? ”
Sun Li sneered.
“Father is so sick, should I not have come back?” Sun Xiangyan clenched her fists.
“Heh, I’m too lazy to say anything. You said it too … “Whom should this position belong to, it will belong to.”
The smile on Sun Biao’s face became even wider as he walked proudly past her. Even though they were more than ten steps apart, Sun Xiyan could still feel the pride on his face.
Sun Xiangyan clenched her fists tighter and tighter …
“Sun Li!”
she shouted.
“What now?”
Sun Li turned his head and laughed.
However, a fist was coming at him.
Bang!
Sun Biao took a punch on his face and was sent flying, crashing into a Spirit Cultivator shop not too far away. The shop was smashed into smithereens by him and he was also confused.
With a single glance, it was clear that this punch was from Sun Qiyan.
“Bastard, I won’t let you get away with this. Sun Di, let’s wait and see.”
Sun Xianyan retracted her fist and said angrily. Then, she walked away.
