Chapter 456 The 9th Princess (7)
After Wangyou finished speaking, she observed the expressions of the men in the courtyard, which was quite amusing.
"As long as they lose their memories and cultivate diligently, they can survive the tribulation, right?" Dong Yong suddenly asked with tears in his eyes.
“Yeah!” Wangyou replied nonchalantly. As for sympathy, what was that? Could you eat it?
"Please, Ninth Princess, save my wife's life. Ever since her immortal bones were removed, her health has been poor. If she can recover, I would rather she forget me." Dong Yong knelt down immediately.
"I am willing too. If the Second Princess can be spared from death, I, Black Hawk, will have no regrets for the rest of my life." Black Hawk, who had been holding his knife without saying a word since entering the room, knelt down on one knee and clasped his hands in a fist salute.
"Although I, Liu Wenxuan, am just a scholar, I share the same temperament as the Sixth Princess. If she can be better, I am willing to give up everything, including my own life."
“I, Ma Xuan, am now all alone and have no wealth. I cannot be a burden to the Fifth Princess any longer.”
"I love my Green very much, but I hope even more that Green can be safe and sound."
"You're all quite sensible, but are you afraid of dying yourselves or are you really afraid of my sisters dying?" Wangyou said with interest, looking at the people kneeling on the ground.
"It doesn't matter if we die, but the common people are innocent. We cannot disregard the plight of the people for our own selfish reasons," Liu Wenxuan said with righteous indignation.
"As expected of a scholar, your tongue is so eloquent. You make it sound as if I, the princess, am so lacking in righteousness for standing by and doing nothing." Wangyou said, looking at Liu Wenxuan with a half-smile.
"Wenxuan had no such intention!" Sensing the faint killing intent, Liu Wenxuan said in fear.
"What do I care about the life and death of ants? Don't try to provoke me. This princess never falls for that!" Regardless of whether Liu Wenxuan meant it or not, that's how Wangyou understood it.
“Brother Liu has no such intention. We only hope that the princesses are well,” Ma Xuan said nervously.
Wangyou didn't speak, but stared at the men in the courtyard. Wangyou's gaze swept over them, and although there was fear in their eyes, they did not back down. It was clear that they really thought so.
Wangyou smiled and waved her hand to release the restrictions in the courtyard. "You all heard it."
“Ninth Sister, I will never be separated from Dong Lang,” Zi’er said first.
"I don't know either."
"Neither will we."
"You guys are hopeless. Do whatever you want, die if you want, just stay away from me." Wangyou went straight back to her house, closed the gate, released the restriction, and went to sleep.
She must be incredibly bored to even think of giving them a chance. Considering their blood ties, she's already done more than enough. Since they love each other so much, why not just lock them up? It makes her seem like she's some kind of heinous criminal.
Forget-Me-Not was unusually angry, but she quickly put it aside and took out a fragment of a mirror that she had taken from King Yin Shi.
"What is this thing? Why do I feel it's so important?" Wangyou looked at the mirror over and over, but no matter what she tried, the mirror didn't react.
The mirror reflected her image, but nothing else.
However, Wangyou didn't lose it. At her level, she felt that nothing could be ignored, and her intuition told her that this thing was very important.
Since she thought it was important, Wangyou certainly wouldn't just guess on her own; she went straight to find Yinshi Wang.
Inside the cave of the Yin Erosion King, the king was still unconscious. Wangyou went forward, grabbed his shoulders and shook him for a while, managing to wake him up.
"Why are you here again?"
"Where did you get this fragment? Are there any others?"
"Let me go and I'll tell you." Yin Shi Wang felt that Wang You was particularly frightening at this moment, and it seemed that she had held back during the previous fight.
"Speak up, or I'll smash your brains out!"
"I obtained this from an ancient site five million years ago. I only have this one piece, but the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother each have one."
"You better not lie to me, or you'll regret it." Wangyou got up and went straight back to Heaven.
"Mother, Mother, where are you?"
"Forget-Me-Not, you're back."
"Mother, do you have any fragments of this mirror?" Wangyou went straight to the point.
How did you get this?
“I snatched it from King Yinshi.”
"Shadow King? You went to the underground cave!"
"What underground cave? That Yin Shi King has already escaped. He's already a Golden Immortal now. I even fought with him. No wonder he's a great demon; he can take a beating." Wang You said very seriously.
"Ninth Princess, is what you're saying true?" the Barefoot Immortal asked again.
"Of course it's true, Mother. He told me that you and Father both have a fragment. Can I have it?"
"If you want it, you can have it. We think it's a treasure, but we've never been able to find a way to use it." The Queen Mother took out two pieces, along with the Jade Emperor's piece, and they were both with her.
"Thank you, Mother." Wangyou happily collected the fragments. "Mother, I'll be going now."
"Wait, you're all grown up now. It's time for you to get involved in the affairs of the Heavenly Court. Let's start with King Yin Shi!"
"I'm still young, but Yin Shi Wang has a lot of resentment towards you and Father. I previously calculated that there would be a calamity in the Three Realms, and I guess it's related to Yin Shi Wang. Moreover, he and my seven older sisters are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, but my seven older sisters are just... I don't want to say anything."
He's waiting for his chance to recover in the mortal realm, and many mortals have already lost their lives because of it. Although dealing with him would be easy for me, I still want to teach my seven older sisters a lesson. They're not growing up in anything else, except for their love-struck minds.
"What does this have to do with your seven older sisters?"
"They could defeat the Yin Shi King at his peak if they joined forces, but first of all, their own cultivation is not up to par. Second Sister is only a Celestial Immortal, so I reckon she'll suffer a big setback. I'm leaving now, I have important matters to attend to."
After finishing her words, Wangyou didn't wait for the immortals to ask any more questions and went straight back to her own Wangyou Pavilion.
Although she is the next Heavenly Emperor, she is not now, and there is no need for her to be as busy as a prince in the mortal world. She should focus on her own affairs first.
After Wangyou left, the Queen Mother remained silent for a long time. She looked at the immortals and saw that Li Jing, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King, and Jinzha had gone to the mortal world and never returned.
"Your Majesty, if what the Ninth Princess said is true, it reminds this old minister of the words the Jade Emperor left behind before he departed."
After Laozi finished speaking, he released four lines of poetry, which were acrostic poems that directly referred to the seven princesses.
"Taibai, go to the mortal realm and find out what the seven princesses are doing. Also, go and see where Li Jing and Jinzha are," the Queen Mother ordered in a deep voice.
"Your humble servant obeys the imperial decree!"
"Taishang Laojun, go and keep a close eye on the movements of Yinshi Wang, and report to me at any time."
"Your humble servant obeys the decree."
"Barefoot Immortal, the guards of Heaven are temporarily entrusted to you."
"I will certainly live up to Your Majesty's expectations."
