Let her go to the battlefield to fight the enemy.
Now that Leng Qingning has successfully recovered the six kingdoms, the Empress is even more at ease and feels genuinely proud, eager to entrust the country to her.
The empress wanted to help her daughter consolidate her power for a few more years while she was still alive. She could not feel at ease if she waited until her death to hand over power.
She wanted to see her daughter firmly establish her power in this secluded kingdom.
Leng Qingning was unaware that from the moment she was born, the Empress had placed all her hopes on her alone.
Now is the perfect time for a change of power.
She bowed respectfully to the Empress and slowly withdrew from the Lingxiao side hall...
"My son has accomplished great things, and I am overjoyed!"
…………
The day of his coronation
The sky was clear and the air was fresh; the venue was luxurious and bright; and the altar was majestic and spacious.
Leng Qingning was dressed in a divine phoenix robe, which shone with golden light. She was dignified, majestic and noble.
Under the watchful eyes of powerful ministers across the land, he and Wen Yanche slowly embarked on the path to coronation.
All the civil and military officials knelt on both sides of the stone slab, witnessing this historic moment.
As the sound of bells and drums rang out, the reclusive world welcomed its first founding emperor. The officials bestowed upon him a crown and the imperial seal, after which the new emperor received the seal and the ceremony was completed.
The king and emperor were both worshipped by the people, and the enthronement ceremony was successfully completed.
"Your Majesty, we offer our congratulations on your ascension to the throne!"
"Your Majesty, we offer our congratulations on your ascension to the throne!"
"Long live Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"
...
The sound waves lingered for a long time, each one stirring and resonant!
Leng Qingning and Wen Yanche held hands tightly, gazing at each other with starlight in their eyes as they surveyed the vast landscape.
The atmosphere was incredibly high, more so than ever before.
Just as everyone was immersed in the excited atmosphere.
suddenly
The cheers and congratulations abruptly stopped!
Time suddenly froze.
The crowd, which had been so excited moments before, suddenly fell silent, and not a sound was heard on the empty altar.
This horrifying scene shattered the tranquility, startling Leng Qingning so much that she abruptly stood up.
"Ning'er, what's going on...?"
Thankfully, Wen Yanche can still move!
Upon hearing the sound, Leng Qingning turned around in surprise and looked at him, her eyes filled with deep confusion.
He spoke haltingly, "I don't know... how could this happen?"
The two looked around in horror. Everyone else was kneeling motionless, as if frozen in place, except for…
Xiao Ning walked slowly towards him.
Leng Qingning waited for her to come, her astonishment clearly expressing her shock.
Wen Yanche had never seen such a bizarre scene before. He stood there dumbfounded, just like Leng Qingning, completely bewildered.
"Sister, our mission is complete." Xiao Ning said softly, her tone full of relief.
These words startled Leng Qingning slightly.
Realizing something, Wen Yanche turned his head sharply, a bad premonition flashing through his mind. He gripped the wrist of the person next to him tightly and asked her in an incredulous tone, "Mission? Ning'er, what does this mean?"
“I…” Leng Qingning frowned heavily, her expression dazed: “This is hard to say…”
"Ning'er, is there something you're hiding from me?" Wen Yanche pulled her closer, his fingers gripping her arm tightly, instinctively afraid that she might leave him at any moment.
Leng Qingning was completely bewildered. She slightly parted her lips, then hesitated and pursed them.
His eyes were dark and unreadable as he looked at Wen Yanche. After a long while, he still couldn't find a solution: "Ache, I don't know... I don't know either..."
A few breaths after she finished speaking, a certain guess suddenly came to her mind, but she couldn't be sure.
After a moment's thought, he said, "I...I'm not sure..."
"Unsure about what?" Wen Yanche asked loudly, his palms sweating involuntarily.
The bizarre scene before him gave him an extremely strong sense of unease.
In addition, the secretive look in the eyes of Leng Qingning and Xiao Ning made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
This matter is definitely not simple!
Fear gripped his entire body. His face was cold and grim as he pressed, "Ning'er, speak! What's this uncertainty? What exactly happened? Do you know something?"
As if suddenly enlightened, her emotions plummeted, sadness surfaced on her cold and serene face, and a few seconds later, tears welled up in her eyes.
Completing the mission means being reborn and returning to one's divine position.
The guess in my mind has now become a definite answer.
"Brother-in-law, my sister doesn't know, please don't press her any further."
"So you know the truth?" Wen Yanche turned to Xiao Ning and asked, "What's going on?"
"Okay." Xiao Ning said succinctly, "We're leaving."
Unbeknownst to her, Leng Qingning swayed slightly.
"Where to?" Wen Yanche asked, his eyes filled with fear.
Xiao Ning glanced at her elder sister and sighed softly: "We are goddesses of the Divine Ruins, and also reborn beings. This is the opportunity given to us by the divine path. Once we complete the unification of the hidden world, we can be reborn."
"A goddess? Reborn?"
"Yes." Xiao Ning nodded: "My elder sister has been crowned and received the homage of six nations. Our mission is complete. It's time for us to leave."
Wen Yanche understood Xiao Ning's words, although he didn't know what had happened or why it was like this.
But he knew that Xiao Ning's words likely meant that Leng Qingning was about to leave him.
"So, you're leaving?"
"Yes."
Wen Yanche swayed slightly, unable to believe such an answer. He glanced at Leng Qingning, his eyes filled with sadness and reluctance.
Leng Qingning was in extreme pain at this moment.
"Ning'er, are you leaving? Where are you going?" The change came too quickly, and he couldn't accept it for a moment.
Leng Qingning couldn't accept it either; her mood plummeted, and she became dejected and depressed.
