Of course, there is another important reason that Yue Qingling did not explicitly state.
If he wants to complete the task Li Wan gave him, it would be best if he didn't cooperate with Bai Ying.
White Oriole is too straightforward, making it difficult to achieve pleasant cooperation.
There needs to be at least one middleman.
Yue Wuyan's identity makes her the most suitable person to act as this middleman.
He looked at the other person, smiled, and said, "Since the Moon Palace Master has said so, if I still disagree, then I'd be asking for trouble."
"Then...please accept my bow?"
He stood up to bow, but Yue Wuyan quickly helped him up, a smile appearing on her pretty face before vanishing in an instant.
"I've already said that we'll have the title of master and apprentice, but we'll still treat each other as friends from now on."
She was very reliable. She told Yue Qingling where she lived and told him to get some rest. She would take care of the matter of his identity.
Yue Qingling was extremely grateful. Upon arriving at the Imperial Island, she first met Bai Ying and successfully entered the Royal Academy.
Upon entering the academy, he ran into his old friend Yue Wuyan, and the matter of becoming her disciple was also resolved.
Seeing that Yue Wuyan was about to leave, he quickly took the storage bag and said, "Palace Mistress Yue, you have helped me so much, please take these things back."
"Please accept this. This is not just my sentiment; it is the sentiment of everyone in Yao Palace."
Gift-giving is a back-and-forth affair; how could Yue Wuyan possibly take back a gift that has already been given?
Yue Qingling had no choice but to accept it, and watched as Yue Wuyan drifted away.
Only then did he begin to examine the storage bag.
What he saw almost startled him.
Not to mention the countless spirit stones, gold and silver contained within, as well as various high-grade magical artifacts and cultivation techniques.
Compared to this storage bag, the supplies Leng Feiran gave him were nothing.
However, Yue Qingling did not show favoritism.
Leng Feiran had only given him a small tip casually.
The gifts from Yao Palace must have been carefully selected.
Anyone would be happy to receive money, and Yue Qingling was no exception.
His eyes gleamed as he sorted through the supplies; he couldn't let Leng Feiran confiscate them again this time.
Quietly, this time when she came to the Imperial Island, she not only didn't spend any money to become an apprentice and cultivate, but she also received so much money.
Money was one thing, but he also met up with some old friends.
He felt that coming here was an incredibly wise decision!
...
Seven days later.
East coast of Teikoku Island.
This is the territory of the Royal Academy.
At high tide, this place is a vast ocean.
After the tide recedes, this place becomes a sandy beach.
Some fish and shrimp were left on the shore, a gift from the sea.
Unfortunately, the disciples of the Royal Academy were all cultivators and had no interest in things like beachcombing.
Beaches aren't frequent, and everyone is busy with their cultivation, so this place is almost deserted and rarely visited.
But now, a handsome young man has appeared here.
He sat quietly on the beach, feeling the vast and magnificent energy of the sea.
Yue Qingling closed his eyes to cultivate, turning the "Peach Blossom Enchanting Heart Sutra" to strengthen his spiritual root and greedily absorbing the endless spiritual energy of the seawater.
Peach Blossom Water Maiden is right. In places with plenty of water, his cultivation speed will be ten times faster!
Yue Qingling was cultivating with almost all her might.
These past few days, he's been feeling terrible because of Leng Feiran's provocations. He's been thinking about getting married as soon as possible so that he can bring peace and stability to the country and protect the four borders from invaders. He can also stabilize the harem and make that vixen Leng Feiran behave herself.
Because the suction was so strong, a vortex actually formed above his head.
The surging sea pounded against the beach in waves, but it paid no heed to the cultivators on the shore.
As the waves crashed, streams of spiritual energy flowed into Yue Qingling's brow, nourishing his spiritual root.
A hint of pain suddenly appeared on Yue Qingling's expressionless face.
He's going to advance.
He suddenly stood up, opened his eyes, and nimbly turned around.
The whirlwind that gathered above his head turned into a cloud of water vapor, surrounding him completely.
As he spun around, the water vapor condensed into countless transparent peach blossoms.
Yue Qingling has an exceptional figure, is agile and nimble, and seems to be dancing and twirling in a casual and carefree manner.
As he moved, the peach blossoms rose and fell, increasing in number.
"Ten Thousand Falls - Peach Blossom Slash!"
Suddenly, a slender sword appeared in Yue Qingling's hand. The sword, like a conductor's baton, carried countless peach petals.
With a flick of his sword, the peach petals gathered around him quickly flew into the sea.
Like blades, they cleaved the rolling sea into countless waves.
Yue Qingling turned around again and gracefully sheathed her Water Eye Sword.
He stared at the sea surface that had instantly recovered, lost in thought for a long time.
"Human cultivation leads to the realm of divine illumination."
In just seven days, he reached the final stage of human cultivation.
At the same time, he also mastered a sword technique from the "Peach Blossom Enchanting Heart Sutra" and a fist technique.
Although the Peach Blossom Enchanting Heart Sutra is not as broad in scope as the Chan Nu Immortal Technique, it is still a masterpiece of an empress.
Yue Qingling found it very easy to use and enjoyed cultivating with it.
Faced with this vast ocean, he estimated that it wouldn't take too long to reach Dixiu!
With the Emperor's legacy, the cultivation speed is truly fast!
Yue Qingling took a deep breath of the salty sea air, and the pent-up emotions in her heart lessened considerably.
He's been driven crazy by Leng Feiran these past few days.
"Were you dancing just now? You looked quite good. Do you often dance like this for your Empress?"
A clear female voice rang out behind Yue Qingling, but the words she spoke were not so pleasant.
Yue Qingling turned around with a smile and said nonchalantly, "Miss Bai is here?"
Bai Ying, dressed in a light yellow dress and sporting a cute maid's bun, walked slowly across the beach with her hands behind her back.
After seven days of getting to know her, Yue Qingling realized that this girl wasn't a bad person at heart, but she just liked to make sarcastic remarks.
As long as you don't engage with her, Bai Ying will return to normal.
Otherwise you'll have to argue with her for half an hour.
When Bai Ying saw his gentle smile, she quickly shifted her gaze to the sea.
This Yue Qingling, she clearly knows her own charm, yet she still tries to seduce her every day.
That's absolutely outrageous!
You're dancing here just to get my attention, aren't you?
Okay, you succeeded. You can contact me tonight.
After looking at the sea, Bai Ying looked down at the beach at her feet. She absentmindedly kicked away a crab and said casually, "Your cultivation speed is really fast. At nineteen, you've reached the Divine Illumination Realm. Hmm, you've caught up with the academy's progress."
Yue Qingling nodded and said, "Just work twice as hard."
"I heard you became Baiyue Wuyan's master? Was that sword technique from Yao Palace?" Bai Ying asked casually.
Yue Qingling was unwilling to reveal his imperial lineage, partly because he was a low-key person and didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
Secondly...
He was too embarrassed to tell others that he was born with a bewitching body and had inherited the legacy of Peach Blossom Water Maiden.
