Chapter 206: My Son Changyu Has What It Takes To Be an Emperor

Su Changyu left.

Ye Ping was the only one left on the rear cliff.

On the rear cliff, Ye Ping was constantly thinking about releasing the sword and holding the sword.

However, after thinking about it, he couldn’t understand the meaning of the words.

In the end, Ye Ping placed the sword in his hand on the ground before picking it up again.

He put it down.

He picked it up.

He put it down again.

He picked it up again.

Ye Ping kept repeating this action.

He did it once, ten times, a hundred times, and then a thousand times.

Ye Ping kept repeating it.

He did not understand the meaning of what he did.

However, he understood that Su Changyu would never let him do such things for no reason.

‘Is Eldest Senior Brother just trying to get rid of me?’

That was impossible.

Ye Ping seriously comprehended while pondering about the mystery within.

Time passed bit by bit.

One day.

Three days.

Five days.

Ten days.

Ye Ping spent all day holding and releasing his sword.

In this situation, Ye Ping felt a little autistic.

He did not understand the point of doing this.

He was unclear of what Su Changyu was trying to tell him.

However, Ye Ping was aware.

A real wonderful Dharmic formulation was not to be spread around.

The true Dharmic formulation could not be described in words.

One had to comprehend it himself in order to make it his own.

If he relied on learning it from others, it would only be akin to comprehending the Dharmic formulation of others.

The tenth day.

Not far away, Da Xu took a pear and sat at a distance away from Ye Ping while staring at him with curiosity in his eyes.

The person sitting next to him was Gu Jianxian.

At this moment, Gu Jianxian was peeling the pear for Da Xu, and he would look at Ye Ping every now and then. He would also occasionally look at the scenery in the distance.

“Old Gu, let me ask you, what is Exalted Immortal doing? Why does he keep picking up the sword and then putting it down on the ground?”

“He’s already been doing this back and forth for so many days. What is he trying to do?”

Da Xu really couldn’t understand what Ye Ping was doing and he was a little confused.

“He is comprehending the Sword Dao.”

Gu Jianxian said calmly.

‘Comprehending the Sword Dao?’

‘Just with this?’

Da Xu glanced at Gu Jianxian with his eyes full of contempt.

“Old Gu, I’m not criticizing you, but it’s no wonder that you’re still a good-for-nothing even though you are middle-aged.”

“He’s just been picking up the sword and putting it down. You call that comprehending the Sword Dao? Can my breathing be considered the Great Dao?”

Da Xu said in displeasure.

As soon as he said that, Gu Jianxian fell silent before nodding afterwards. “That might be the case.”

Da Xu was speechless.

He did not say anything and merely continued to look at Ye Ping.

At the same time, a voice suddenly sounded.

“Old Gu, Da Xu, come over and help me.”

As the voice sounded, Da Xu immediately got up. It was Daoist Tai Hua’s voice. He seemed extremely agitated, and now that he was the guest elder of the Qingyun Dao Sect, Da Xu was extremely busy.

There was no major matter in the Qingyun Dao Sect, and hence, Da Xu did not feel tired. Instead, he felt that it was very fulfilling.

“Alright.”

Da Xu answered before walking towards the front cliff with Gu Jianxian.

Soon, both of them arrived at the front cliff of Qingyun Dao Sect.

There were now various large and small buildings in the Qingyun Dao Sect. There were 19 more buildings and now it looked even more decent than it used to in the past.

It had to be said that appearance really mattered.

As the several buildings appeared, the entire Qingyun Dao Sect seemed even more glorious than before.

Their appearance didn’t mean much but Daoist Tai Hua had gotten someone to erect a Grandmaster statue, which was to be placed in the main hall.

Da Xu and Gu Jianxian could do such hard labor easily.

However, at this moment, their voices sounded.

It was Su Changyu’s voice.

“Are you guys leaving?”

Not far away, Su Changyu walked over with the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji.

He looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji curiously.

“Little Friend Changyu, we’ve imposed on you this time but we have some things to handle so we can’t stay here for long. We can only come again next time.”

Taishang Xuanji said.

He and the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty had been staying in the room during this period of time and they would occasionally let Su Changyu take them on a tour around the Qingyun Dao Sect.

In fact, five days ago, the two of them were about to leave, and if not for the fact that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty refused to go, they would have left long ago.

They had now delayed their journey by ten days, and there were still lots of things for them to handle in the dynasty.

Hence, they had no choice but to leave.

“Okay, do visit us often.”

Su Changyu did not have much to say. After all, it was not his business and there was no point in dragging on any longer.

“Little Friend Changyu, you may visit us at the Great Xia Dynasty when you’re free in the future. Oh, by the way, this is my token. When you come to the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty in the future, you just have to ask for the address of Xuan Residence.”

Taishang Xuanji smilingly took out a token and handed it to Su Changyu, asking him to look for him at the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty in the future.

The token was made of rosewood.

Su Changyu took the token and then sent the two of them away.

However, at this moment, Daoist Tai Hua spoke up.

“Are the two of you going to leave just like that?”

Hearing that the two of them were about to leave, Daoist Tai Hua couldn’t help but walk over.

“Yes, I still have something to handle. I’ll have to trouble you these days, Fellow Daoist.”

Taishang Xuanji said with a chuckle.

“You guys are Changyu’s friends so you’re naturally the honored guests of the Qingyun Dao Sect too. If you have something important to handle, I won’t make you two stay behind either. If you come over again, we’ll definitely host you well.”

Daoist Tai Hua was all smiles.

“You’re being too polite, you’re being too polite.”

Taishang Xuanji smiled but he soon looked at Gu Jianxian again.

In an instant, Gu Jianxian looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji.

“Gu!”

The moment Taishang Xuanji saw Gu Jianxian, he couldn’t help but freeze.

His gaze was full of astonishment.

He couldn’t believe that the person in front of him was Gu Jianxian.

As the chancellor of the Great Xia Dynasty, who was an existence that had power over the dynasty, how could he not know Gu Jianxian?

In fact, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty even seemed shocked at this moment.

Gu Jianxian’s gaze was gradually full of surprise.

He had never expected that the emperor and chancellor of the Great Xia Dynasty would appear in such a lowly sect.

‘What a miracle.’

“Oh? You know each other?”

Daoist Tai Hua looked at the change in Taishang Xuanji’s expression and couldn’t help but be curious.

“No.”

“He just looks like a friend of mine but my eyes were playing tricks on me.”

Taishang Xuanji immediately said. He could tell that they probably didn’t know of Gu Jianxian’s identity and hence did not reveal it. He just feigned ignorance.

“Oh, so that’s how it is, this is Changyu’s disciple, Gu Mingshi.”

“Old Gu, hurry up and greet them, your Uncle-Masters.”

Daoist Tai Hua introduced Gu Jianxian.

Gu Jianxian immediately came forward and looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji with a deadpan expression.

“Greetings, Uncle-Masters.”

A voice sounded.

Taishang Xuanji was dumbstruck.

‘Uncle-Master?’

‘Su Changyu’s eldest disciple?’

‘Are you teasing me?’

‘This is the alliance leader of the Itinerant Cultivators, Gu Jianxian, who is the best Sword Dao cultivator in the world.’

He was an invincible existence.

Even the five dynasties had to be respectful to him.

‘Call me Uncle-Master?’

‘He calls Su Changyu his master?’

‘Is there a mistake?’

Taishang Xuanji was full of shock.

Although he had been here for a full ten days, he hadn’t left at all during this time except when following the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty around. Hence, he naturally hadn’t bothered to contact other people.

Besides, he would not use his divine senses to check on others.

After all, it was just a small clan and he didn’t think that there would be a major figure hiding there.

However, he didn’t expect that there would be such an amazing mighty figure there.

In particular, Gu Jianxian was said to be Su Changyu’s disciple.

Not to mention Taishang Xuanji. Even the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was stunned at this point.

It was no longer as simple as outrageous. It was completely unbelievable.

‘The world’s number one Sword Dao cultivator actually worshiped a good-for-nothing as his master?’

That was what Taishang Xuanji thought.

In the eyes of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, Su Changyu wasn’t a good-for-nothing at all. In fact, his first reaction was to think to himself, ‘Can the Tenth Prince actually subdue Gu Jianxian?’

That was not a small thing.

To be honest, who in the five dynasties did not want to get close to Gu Jianxian?

However, the problem was, who was Gu Jianxian?

How could he be poached easily?

Who would have thought that such a powerful existence had become Su Changyu’s disciple?

If word about this were to get out, the whole immortal cultivation world would be in an uproar, right?

‘My son has what it takes to be the king.’

The more the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty looked at Su Changyu, the more he liked him.

He compared Su Changyu to the Crown Prince.

‘All the crown prince does is try to get all the civil and military officials on his side.’

‘What a joke, can they influence the decision for who to take the throne?’

No matter who became the emperor, those officials were the subjects of the Great Xia Dynasty who would forever be fence sitters. Until the very last moment, they would never be at the forefront.

That was the importance of order.

Cozying up to Gu Jianxian was better than cozying up to all the civil and military officials of the Great Xia Dynasty.

He didn’t know how many times he hinted at the Crown Prince to have greater foresight.

Yet, what happened in the end? He was still spending his days trying to poach everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty.

He had finally gotten close to the Great Ze Dynasty but he tried to beg the Great Ze Dynasty to help him become the emperor.

‘How ridiculous.’

At this point, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty couldn’t help but be furious.

The crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty...

He was the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Yet, he took the initiative to please the Great Ze Dynasty for the sake of becoming emperor.

It was truly degrading and an insult to the nation.

On the other hand, Gu Jianxian was Su Changyu’s disciple. That was the glory that the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty ought to have.

However, no matter what he was thinking, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty did not reveal it.

Faced with Gu Jianxian’s salute, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty returned the gesture, which was rare of him.

However, considering Gu Jianxian’s identity, which was not inferior to the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, it was normal for him to return the gesture.

“In this case, I’ll bid you farewell.”

Taishang Xuanji regained his composure and then said to everyone.

They were indeed leaving and thus did not want to continue delaying.

“Sure, bon voyage.”

“Take care.”

“Visit us again next time.”

Daoist Tai Hua, Su Changyu, Da Xu and the others spoke while seeing the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji off.

They did not disappear right on the spot and instead walked down the mountain.

In the Qingyun Mountains, both of them remained silent. The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty walked in front while Taishang Xuanji followed closely behind.

However, just as the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was about to speak...

A figure appeared in front of them.

It was a gorgeous woman who was dressed in white, looking as aloof as an ice mountain.

“It’s her!”

When he saw the woman’s appearance, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty couldn’t help but be shocked.

Taishang Xuanji was a little confused at this point, but in an instant, he also sensed that there was something different about her.

“The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty?”

The woman in white walked over with a gourd in hand and was looking at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty with her beautiful eyes. She then drank a mouthful of wine with her eyes full of astonishment.

She pointed out the identity of the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty right away.

“I didn’t expect you to show up here.”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was surprised too.

“Since this is my sect, of course I’m here. What are you doing in such a ravine, Emperor?”

Xiao Muxue said.

Her eyes were full of curiosity.

Yes, that figure was Xiao Muxue, the Senior Sister of the Qingyun Dao Sect.

“This is your sect? Is Su Changyu your Senior Brother?”

At this moment, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s eyes were also full of curiosity.

“Somewhat.”

Xiao Muxue did not answer in detail and merely gave a vague reply.

At this moment, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was completely heartbroken.

“Emperor, you still haven’t answered my question yet. Why are you here?”

Xiao Muxue continued. Although she sounded polite, there was no respect in her voice.

“I happened to come here by chance.”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s answer was vague too.

“By chance? Then, did you discover anything?”

Xiao Muxue said with a smile.

“Discover? Discover what? Did you discover something?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was calm again. Perhaps because of Gu Jianxian, he wasn’t too shocked about it.

“For the time being, I have not discovered yet but even the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty has come here. I reckon the conjectures are real.”

“After investigating carefully, we will have someone relay it to you.”

“However, there are so many affairs to handle in the imperial court these days but you seem to be very free. You’re here on a jaunt, aren’t you afraid of impeachment?”

Xiao Muxue asked.

At this point, Taishang Xuanji was dumbfounded.

‘Impeachment?’

‘How dare someone say impeachment?’

‘How dare this person threaten the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty?’

There was only one place in the entire Great Xia Dynasty where impeachment could happen, apart from the Great Confucian scholars academy.

He was a little confused and dumbfounded because he didn’t know who that woman was.

“I’m going to retire soon. Impeachment doesn’t matter anymore.”

“Okay, if you discover anything, inform me as soon as you can.”

After the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty said that, he left resolutely without looking at Xiao Muxue at all.

Taishang Xuanji was tagging along behind, overwhelmed with fright.

It was not because of this woman.

It was because of this bizarre sect.

The problem was that most of the members of the clan were good-for-nothings, and apart from Ye Ping, the rest were all garbage.

However, the sect that seemed lowly and inconspicuous, housed the best Sword Dao cultivator in the world and a big shot who dared to talk about impeachment to the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

‘Damn it, what kind of a horrible place is this?’

‘Hidden sect?’

Taishang Xuanji was completely dumbfounded.

He couldn’t understand it at all.

He looked down and left together with the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

After a long time, he really couldn’t help it and spoke up.

“Your Majesty, although I know that I’m in no place to ask about some matters, I’m still really curious. Who is that woman?”

Taishang Xuanji was really curious.

Otherwise, he would not have asked the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

As the Chancellor, he knew what to say and what not to.

“Can’t you guess?”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s tone was calm, and as usual, his emotions could not be heard from his tone.

“Is she from the... Heavenly Supervisory?”

Taishang Xuanji guessed some of it.

Apart from the Great Confucian scholar academy, the only ones who dared to mention impeachment were those from the Heavenly Supervisory.

However, the Heavenly Supervisory did not belong to the jurisdiction of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Rather, it was a large institution of the entire immortal cultivation world.

The so-called Heavenly Supervisory was meant for doing justice and supervising the world. Each dynasty had to establish a Heavenly Supervisory.

In the Heavenly Supervisory, everything that was done was targeted at the world.

For example, there were great demons and devils to harm the world or some impending calamities that were unpredictable.

The Heavenly Supervisory would have to intervene.

There were five Heavenly Supervisories in the five dynasties but above the Heavenly Supervisory, there was one headquarters.

The headquarters could handle some matters and transfer the five Heavenly Supervisory at will, but they could not intervene with the national affairs.

Everything was related to the people and the cultivators of the world.

Hence, the Heavenly Supervisory had the responsibility to impeach the emperor.

After all, every action and decision of the emperor would be enough to make the people of the world wish they were dead.

The main responsibility of the Heavenly Supervisory was to be in charge of supervising the world.

Naturally, they could impeach the king.

However, it was not a huge matter.

After all, unless it was a big deal, the king would not be impeached easily.

To a certain extent, the king could do whatever he wanted. For example, he could have as many concubines as possible and enjoy life as he wished. As long as he did not harm the cultivators and the people, there would not be anything major.

That was also the reason why Taishang Xuanji thought about the Heavenly Supervisory.

After all, Xiao Muxue was too young to be a Great Confucian scholar of heaven and earth.

“Yes.”

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty nodded as an answer to Taishang Xuanji’s question.

After receiving the answer, Taishang Xuanji couldn’t help but take a deep breath before continuing to ask.

“What is that lady’s status in the Heavenly Supervisory?”

He couldn’t help but ask.

However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty did not answer.

“I know my mistake.”

At this moment, Taishang Xuanji knew that he was not to learn of Xiao Muxue’s identity.

Hence, he did not continue asking.

In fact, he knew that the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was already telling him more than he should know by informing him where Xiao Muxue was from.

If he continued asking, he would lose his position as the chancellor.

Taishang Xuanji was silent.

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, who was walking in front, had some joy in his eyes.

‘Changyu’s disciple is Gu Jianxian, the world’s best Sword Immortal.’

‘His junior sister is a big shot of the Heavenly Supervisory who holds great power.’

‘That power alone is enough to make him superior to the Crown Prince who has worked hard for decades.’

‘It’s no wonder he’s my son.’

‘He does have what it takes to be the emperor.’

‘Should I replace the current Crown Prince?’

At this moment, that idea popped up in the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s mind.

It was not that he really didn’t like the Crown Prince.

Rather, it was because Su Changyu was just too outstanding.

He was so outstanding that it would be unforgivable if he did not let Su Changyu ascend to the throne.
