"Senior brother, what do you mean by that? There's just a misunderstanding between me and Shen Zhao. Once the misunderstanding is cleared up, we will definitely get married."
Yu Xiyan couldn't help but furrow her brows slightly at Ling Yuxuan's ambiguous attitude.
"Junior sister, as the ruler of a country, you must be very busy with state affairs. If there were someone who could assist you..."
"I imagine you'll feel much more at ease, but Shen Zhao is just a commoner; how could he possibly understand all that?"
"Thank you for reminding me, senior brother. I have my own plans for this matter, so there's no need for you to worry about it."
"Junior sister, that Shen Zhao is truly not good enough for you. You only married him because of your father and mother's decision."
Your senior knows that what you yearn for is a free and unrestrained life, not to be bound by these formalities and etiquette.
So, junior sister, you can only achieve your own happiness through your own efforts!
Yu Xiyan had already grasped the meaning behind Ling Yuxuan's words.
In fact, when Ling Yuxuan became a disciple of the Nine Paths Mystic Venerable, he already had a strong liking for Yu Xiyan.
In his previous life, Ling Yuxuan pursued Yu Xiyan relentlessly for a period of time, even after knowing that she was already married. He said: "As the ruler of a country, what does it matter if I have three palaces and six courtyards?"
In the end, it was only after the Nine Paths Mystic Venerable intervened that his frenzied emotions were brought to a stop.
Now that she hadn't married Shen Zhao yet, and Ling Yuxuan had said such ambiguous things, Yu Xiyan already understood what he was trying to say.
However, she never liked Ling Yuxuan, and her feelings for him were merely those of a fellow disciple.
Moreover, she had already decided in this life that she would marry no one but Shen Zhao. Even though Shen Zhao had clearly stated his attitude at the Biyun Immortal Palace, Yu Xi still had no intention of letting go.
No matter what, she had to win Shen Zhao back, keep him by her side, and make up for the debt she owed him in her previous life.
Moreover, after leaving Shen Zhao, she realized that she could not replicate Shen Zhao's success at all, and even using the same methods, she could not achieve the desired results.
More importantly, after court each day, that familiar figure was no longer there to offer comfort and care.
No longer will anyone bring you a steaming bowl of Linglong soup when you feel physically and mentally exhausted from handling official business late at night.
After her rebirth, she realized that she couldn't live without Shen Zhao at all. Without him, she was almost going crazy from the stress.
There is absolutely no way she can have another man in her heart for the rest of her life.
She wanted to bear children for Shen Zhao and spend the rest of her life healing his heart, which she had broken.
"Senior brother, I will marry no one but him in this life, please don't try to persuade me anymore."
"Why, junior sister?"
"You don't understand, Shen Zhao is the love of my life, don't try to persuade me anymore."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yuxuan remained silent for a long time.
He then smiled slightly and said, "In that case, I wish you happiness and fulfillment, Junior Sister. Now that the ancient site is about to open, I, as your senior brother, will definitely help you obtain the Divine Phoenix Inheritance."
At the same time, he thought to himself: My junior sister has grown more and more beautiful and charming. Only I am worthy of her stunning beauty, and only I am qualified to be the son-in-law of the Great Yin Empire.
When it comes to the spirit of a sycophant, this guy absolutely crushes all the others.
"Thank you, senior brother. I think I will be happy."
Yu Xiyan was unaware of Ling Yuxuan's thoughts, so her attitude remained indifferent.
Her purpose in coming here was naturally for the inheritance of the Divine Phoenix.
Without Shen Zhao's assistance, he had to do many things himself.
Suddenly, a burst of brilliant light fell from mid-air, transforming into countless golden stars that scattered across the ancient ruins of the Divine Phoenix.
Immediately afterwards, a deep vortex appeared in each of the four directions in front of the Divine Phoenix Ruins; these were the entrances to the barrier.
"The Divine Phoenix Ancient Ruins are now open to all. Those with the bloodline of the Phoenix may bring two companions inside. May you all find your destiny and revitalize our Phoenix lineage."
As soon as the elder in the high place finished speaking, thousands of cultivators entered the barrier entrance together.
"Junior sister, stay close to me."
"Um."
Ling Yuxuan and Yu Xiyan entered the ancient site from the eastern barrier.
On the other side, facing the crowded throng, Su Yunying and her two companions did not make a move.
"This is insane! At this rate, we might not even reach the entrance to the barrier in three days," Linghu Ming exclaimed.
Su Yunying shook her head: "There's nothing we can do about it. After all, too many people get in through connections, which seriously hinders the progress of entering the historical sites."
Upon hearing this, Liang Hao immediately said, "In that case, let me pave the way for you all. Just follow me closely."
Linghu Ming was startled: "What do you want to do?"
"How about I unleash a powerful move to liven things up first, and you all watch my performance from here?"
After saying that, Liang Hao suddenly leaped into the air and let out a loud shout.
"Hey~"
"I raise my hand to support the sea and hold up the sky, looking down upon all living beings as mere ants. All the heavens throughout the ages give way, and in the beginning of chaos, the sun and moon shone brightly!"
"Listen up, you ants below! If you don't want to die, get out of here! I'm about to unleash my ultimate move."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and gathered a vast amount of true essence.
Instantly, a chilling power enveloped his entire body.
"This is a powerful move that I created myself recently. Today, I'll test it out on you ants. Behold my Frost Dragon Breath!"
In an instant, a giant frost dragon descended from mid-air, opening its mouth to exhale frost and shooting a narrow beam of frozen light towards the crowded people below.
"Damn it, what kind of bastard dares to plot against me?"
"You'd better pray I don't survive if you invade your mother's cave, or you'll be sorry."
"You old bastard, just wait until you're wiped out."
"If my father knew what had happened to me, he would definitely avenge me and personally pick your lychee."
"You've really chosen the wrong path, kid. Just wait to be punished by the Heavenly Dao!"
