“Sister Hongyu, you have come.” Su Mian faintly smiled.
“I heard Your Majesty issued a summons. I have arrived in but only light makeup.” Liu Hongyu’s gaze spotted Chen Mo. She meaningfully said: “Hm, this man has apparently grown a bit, but you forgot your promise with Me.”
“Your Servant will definitely attend the Qilin Martial Emperor’s banquet.” Chen Mo said.
“Very good, very good.” Liu Hongyu’s gaze then turned to the other three Star Marquis.
Yang Guang, Fu Jian, and Wu Zhao glanced at one another. Normally, the Qilin Martial Emperor did not correspond with the other Star Marquis very much. She was also quite appreciative of Daoism. Her appearance at Mount Hua made the originally restless Yang Guang wrinkled her brow.
Yang Guang said: “Liu Che, you came at the perfect time. Mount Hua is harboring a Purple Rose Star Name of ill portent. They plan to revolt, yet Her Majesty is somewhat concerned about the reputation of Daoism’s Western Moon. Why not let us quell Her Majesty’s worries together and destroy Mount Hua.” It had to be said that her oratory skills were clever indeed, leaving out anything that could be used against her while also being comprehensive.
Her words contained enticement; if they could destroy Mount Hua, that would prove very meritorious for a Star Marquis.
“Your Majesty, do you need Me to help resolve these worries?” Liu Hongyu asked with deliberation.
“Of course, This Palace needs your help, Sister Hongyu, but not right now. Wait for the others to gather, then we will go subjugate Zhu Yuanzhang.” Su Mian said.
“Fu Jian, Wu Zhao. You two should save your Star Energy for Zhu Jiujiu. She has cultivated a True Spirit Projection. This Palace does not want any mishaps.”
Fu Jian and Wu Zhao remained silent. If it was just Su Mian alone, the three Star Marquis would have wanted to put everything on the line. It would be good if they could kill Su Mian, but now that the Qilin Martial Emperor had come, things were different. The Qilin Martial Emperor was stronger than them. If they actually came to blows, even if they won, they would be seriously wounded. In the end, they would have instead allowed someone else to benefit.
They originally wanted to exploit Zhu Yuanzhang’s revolt to make Dream In A Millennium have misgivings, but they never thought this girl would be unflustered to the extreme, not even the slightest bit perturbed.
Su Mian’s expression was sweet, her smile wide and full, but should the Imperial Empress Of Bedfellows and Holy Divine Goddess dare cross her, they had not doubts at all that this master of Central would definitely raise her hand against them.
Yang Guang grit her teeth. Mount Hua’s destruction was right in front of her, yet a variable like this had now appeared. She was unwilling to lose everything at the final stretch. There would be no more chances if she missed this one.
“Zhu Yuanzhang’s matter is important, but I feel that the Zhao of Song Star Name is even more dangerous. If we are here at Mount Hua already, we cannot let this go. Otherwise, there will be no end to trouble. For the sake of Star World’s million Star Names, we must eliminate this scourge of a star.”
“Must This Palace repeat herself?” Su Mian calmly said. “Zhu Yuanzhang’s power is overwhelming, and she has obtained the Universe Eternity Spirit Treasure Ten Thousand Sages Hall. This Palace does not want any delays or mishaps right now. All Star Marquis right now must preserve their strength for battle against the Sun And Moon True Dragon. This Zhao Kuangyin Star Name of Mount Hua has only just awakened and is not the prevalent issue. We cannot lose sight of the big picture.”
“But she slayed a Heavenly Star the moment she awakened.” Yang Guang’s tone lowered. Buddhist Stupa Under Heaven stirred.
“Golden Age Tyrant, This Palace sees that your hatred of Mount Hua runs very deep. Is it because of the competition?” Su Mian smiled: “How about this, then. This Palace will first dispatch people to blockade Mount Hua and seal Zhao Kuangyin. After we kill Zhao Kuangyin, then we will discuss how to deal the Purple Star Name, is that adequate?”
Pausing, Dream In A Millennium then said to Zhu Xi: “Dong Zhongshu, This Palace knows you are capable of Heaven And Man Response Realm. Dongzi, your presumably would not wish to lose much for so little gain? Zhu Yuanzhang murdered the Seven Sages Of The Bamboo Grove. If we do not seize this chance to subjugate her while her True Spirit is injured and her vitality debilitated, let alone Mount Hua, not even the Central Star Field will be safe.”
Zhu Xi blinked.
The Star Marquis looked at her.
“Since Your Majesty has said that Mount Hua will be discussed after dispatching Zhu Yuanzhang, we believe Your Majesty will not go back on your word. Lord Dongzi has agreed with Your Majesty’s perspective.” Zhu Xi said.
“However, for the sake of preventing Zhao Kuangyin from escaping, Fu Jian will stay here to monitor Mount Hua. So as to avoid the Purple Cypress Divine Fruit being stolen by others.”
“I could not ask for anything better.” Fu Jian’s eyes were aglow.
“Dongzi also wants Guo Ziyi to stay behind. If all Star Marquis are made to appear for Zhu Yuanzhang’s subjugation, even the Central Star Field will presumably not be so overbearing.” Zhu Xi said.
“Good.” Su Mian nodded: “Li, then you stay as well.”
“As you command.”
Fu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her. She waved her hand, signaling to Wang Meng and the others to lower their guard, “Little Sister Yang Guang, since Her Majesty has spoken, wait until after we subjugate Zhu Yuanzhang to continue. Mount Hua harbors ill intent, and Her Majesty naturally perceives even the finest details.”
Yang Guang snorted. She hatefully glared at Chen Mo, flung her sleeve, then left riding her dragon carriage.
“They say that Mount Hua is also a fine star leyline. I wonder how intercourse at Mount Hua would taste.” Imperial Empress Of Bedfellows Fu Jian licked her lips. She stroked Wang Meng’s hand, put on her gorgeous clothes, and entered Mount Hua under everyone’s escort.
“Ziyi will have to trouble you.” Guo Ziyi was very courteous.
When she passed Chen Mo, this canary longskirted girl meaningfully stared at Chen Mo.
“Finished just like that? Truly a bore.” The Qilin Martial Emperor twitched her mouth.
“This is truly all thanks to Elder Sister Hongyu.” Su Mian said gratefully. “Elder Sister truly came at the perfect time.” If not for the Qilin Martial Emperor, Wu Zhao, Yang Guang, and Fu Jian may have actually moved against Su Mian. While Su Mian was not afraid of them, this would truly have thrown Star World’s order into chaos, and the subjugation against Zhu Yuanzhang would be very unsuccessful.
Chen Mo was rather perplexed. He had even thought that Liu Hongyu had come to loot the burning house. Never did he imagine she would actually stand on Su Mian’s side.
“That Liu Xiu separately came up with the idea to inform Me of the circumstances. You are the man I will raise, after all. How can I let others take you.” Liu Hongyu snorted.
“Elder Sister, do not be too self-confident. Chen Mo is a man who but wrote Pity that Emperor Qin and Emperor Han of Wu lacked literary talent.” Su Mian chuckled.
Emperor Han of Wu was none other than the Qilin Martial Emperor.
Liu Hongyu was bewildered.
Su Mian then recited “Spring Snow Seeping into the Land.” This poem immediately left the Qilin Martial Emperor astounded. Not just her, but everyone including Yue Fei, Xiao Mohe, and even the faraway Guo Ziyi were all stunned. Even the unflappable Sleeping Immortal showed astonishment for the first time.
“You composed this?” Liu Hongyu’s tone lowered.
“The sages’ aspirations, nothing more.
“Good, very good.” Liu Hongyu grinned: “As expected of the man I will raise. Even the imposing Poem Immortal Li Bai could not possibly make a poem that only Purple Rose Star Names are capable of. Compared to the Purple Rose Star Emperor form back then, you do not fall so short…Your Majesty, please do not blame Me for saying such things.”
Su Mian smiled. Father’s feats long already surpassed Purple Rose. She naturally would not do such a thing.
“Elder Sister, please prepare first. We shall go subjugate Zhu Jiujiu together, this matter cannot be delayed.”
“Zhu Jiujiu has truly rebelled?”
Su Mian summarized events.
“Zhu Jiujiu is actually so outrageous, to dare offend all the spiritual power Star Generals in the world. No wonder Your Majesty is so worried.” Liu Hongyu clicked her tongue. She could not help but feel sincere disbelief.
“Very well, then. I shall return to the Qilin Star Kingdom in the meantime.” Liu Hongyu extended a pure white finger to stroke Chen Mo’s chin, which was promptly stopped by Chen Mo’s hand.
“Is the Martial Emperor so desperate to get close to me?”
Possessing the powerful Realm of the sage aspiration’s “Spring Snow Seeping Into The Land,” Chen Mo was no longer afraid of the Purple Rose Star’s intimidation.
Liu Hongyu laughed. She tossed her wide skirt and immediately stepped into nothingness.
“In the future, I will definitely raise you, nice and proper.”
…
“Fortunately, Liu Hongyu’s personality is unruly and fond only of creating amusements. If she was like the other Star Marquis, then this would truly not have been easy to wind down.” Su Mian felt exhausted, too.
“It’s not easy being the master of Central.” Chen Mo said sympathetically.
“Yeah. As my father put it, only by finding a man can I easily manage these troublesome women.” Su Mian stared at Chen Mo.
“I have no plans to seize your position.” Chen Mo shook his head.
Su Mian broke into laughter. Men truly were dummies.
Chen Mo had Xiao Mohe go inform the others.
Then, he moved towards Mount Hua’s main peak along with Chen Tuan and the rest. “Where’s Houxiu?” Chen Mo asked.
“She took God Of Slaughter Bai Qi away. Right now, her situation is unclear.”
“Back then, Bai Ling was among the Ancestral Dragon’s Four Great Dragon Guards. The Ancestral Dragon ascended Maiden Mountain, yet she stayed behind. Later, she even helped This Palace sort out the government, yet things are not very stable now.” Su Mian had a headache thinking about this woman.
“Will Houxiu be alright?” Chen Mo asked in worry.
“No. Bai Qi’s strength is very formidable, but she will not be able to kill the Son Of Heaven.” Su Mian shook her head.
They spoke as they walked. Along the way, they suddenly stopped when they passed the Divine Nun Forest.
“Your Majesty? The one in the Divine Nun Forest is my Great Senior Sister, is something the matter?” Chen Moa sked.
Su Mian asked Chen Tuan: “Chen Xian’er, is she well?”
Chen Xian’er nodded.
“Then, good. Even if Mount Hua is destroyed, This Palace hopes she can quietly cultivate the Dao in the forest.” Su Mian smiled, then recited Spring Snow Seeping Into The Land once more.
From the forest came that divine bird’s cry, as if in response.
“No wonder you could compose such a transcendent poem. Or perhaps, only you could compose one.”
Chen Mo was not very sure what she meant.
Su Mian said nothing more. Chen Mo glanced at the Divine Nun Forest in bewilderment. After they arrived at the main hall, Su Mian saw the still unconscious “Ninefold Dragon Edict” Zhao Kuangyin Zhao Luotong.
The girl was still comatose. Nine dragons coiled around her body, draped over her like a robe.
“This Palace does not have much time. Zhu Yuanzhang’s rebellion has incited public fury. This Palace cannot allow her the chance to catch her breath and complete the Great Ming.” Su Mian got right to the point after taking a seat.
Chen Mo asked: “What do you plan to do after that, Su Mian? Destroy Mount Hua?”
“If Mount Hua is destroyed, then that allows Dongzi’s Confucianism to reign alone. At that time, she will be even more troublesome than Zhu Jiujiu.” Su Mian was very vexed.
“So This Palace has a mission for you…” Su Mian said.
“What mission?”
“While we subjugate Zhu Yuanzhang, you must eliminate of Fu Jian.”
Hearing her words, everyone was taken aback.
“I am to eliminate Fu Jian?”
“Yes. One less Star Marquis for those facing Mount Hua means a better chance for us.” Su Mian considered.
“But Your Majesty, the God Of War Made Duke is present.” Yue Fei said.
“Fu Jian’s Amrita Seven Grands are not weak either.” Li Milu wrinkled her brow, feeling this idea was a bit terrible. “Why not we join hands together with Your majesty to kill her right now.”
“No. Right now, we must face Zhu Yuanzhang, we cannot act blindly without thinking.” Su Mian shook her head. “This Palace has a plan. However, this requires that you can kill Fu Jian herself.”
Although he had the sages’ aspirations, to kill a Star Marquis was still very difficult.
“This Palace will lend you a hand.”
“Hm?”
Su Mian turned her hand over to reveal a vermilion jade pendant and a key. “Presumably, you will be capable of facing a Star Marquis after obtaining the last of the Four Symbols, Ling Guang the Vermilion Bird.”
Dream In A Millennium faintly smiled. In this smile was the bearing of make clouds with a turn of one hand, rain with the other.1
