"I hope so."
At this moment, the Empress's face was no longer cold and stern, but instead carried a hint of bitterness. After a moment, she said, "Do you know where that thief fled to?"
"According to the female soldiers who went to capture the prisoner that day, the direction the thief fled seemed to be the border of the Bujiang Dynasty."
Bai Lisiyu frowned and said, "Your Majesty, if they really join the Bujiang Dynasty, it will be troublesome for us to capture them."
"Not the Jiang Dynasty..."
Upon hearing this, the Empress's originally gentle eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp glint. "The existence of the Jiang Dynasty has always been a thorn in my side. If our dynasty can produce a strong leader in five years, why should Shuang'er wait another five years!"
"The Bujiang Dynasty is a male-dominated country, and the entire population practices martial arts, unlike our dynasty, where men mostly do not focus on cultivation. Therefore, the overall national strength of the Bujiang Dynasty is much higher than that of our dynasty."
Upon hearing the Empress's words, Bairis Yu clenched his fists slightly and said with great resentment, "If it weren't for this, we wouldn't have been defeated back then, and the Third Princess wouldn't have had to be sent away as a hostage."
"Hey, Shuang'er, she..."
Speaking of the Third Princess, the Empress's face once again showed a look of guilt, "Knowing that she has been unable to cultivate profound energy since childhood, and has not received any inheritance in spiritual power, she will surely suffer as a hostage, but I still..."
"Your Majesty, the eldest princess possesses extraordinary talent and is the youngest war goddess in our Wuya Dynasty. The second princess is the only one capable of cultivating spiritual power and is destined to be the future crown princess. Only the third princess..."
Seeing that the Empress was once again blaming herself, Bai Lisiyu quickly comforted her, "Actually, it's not necessarily bad for the Third Princess to become a hostage. As a princess, she is unable to cultivate, and I'm afraid she won't have an easier time in the palace than as a hostage."
"Okay, never mind."
The Empress sighed deeply and rubbed her temples, saying, "The opponent can walk on air, so their spiritual power level is at least the third level, which is enough to contend with the initial stage of the Heavenly Profound Scripture. There is no need to confront them head-on. It would be better if the Bujiang Dynasty took advantage of the situation."
"What does the Empress mean?"
"Have someone find out where they are, go and negotiate with them. As long as the Xuan Stone can be returned, you can agree to any terms you see."
After saying that, the Empress's eyes suddenly turned cold. "If the other party remains stubborn, then don't blame me for not giving her a chance."
"yes."
Upon hearing this, Bai Lisiyu respectfully agreed and quickly left.
Bairis Yu had complete confidence in the Empress, because the Empress was the myth that allowed their Wuya Dynasty to stand firm, and her terrifying strength was unknown to anyone.
"Shuang'er..."
After Bailiyu left, the Empress took out a hairpin from her bosom. "I am sorry for you, and even more sorry for your father. Don't worry, five years is too long. I will definitely bring you back as soon as possible!"
Houjishan, mountain village
Meanwhile, Jun Feijue recalled all the alchemy furnaces she had seen during the day, then selected the most satisfactory ones, and finally slowly blended them into a perfect whole in her mind.
Time passed slowly, and as the image of the alchemy furnace in his mind became more and more complete, everything finally came to fruition.
"Bang..."
A blinding blue light flashed in the room, and a ten-foot-tall alchemy furnace appeared before Jun Feijue.
Like those alchemy furnaces, it is gourd-shaped with a small head and a round belly, and has three legs. Its black body is decorated with eight dark bells.
