31: Who did this? Sister Xuan'er, are you pregnant?

The Ghostly Underworld Taoist frowned slightly, somewhat displeased, "First Imperial Prince, Mu Bingxuan is not as simple as you think."

"She herself is an Immortal King magnate, and she might have powerful protectors from the Primordial Heavenly Court."

"If you make a move against her, you might just be slapped to death!" After he finished speaking, the Ghostly Underworld Taoist felt very helpless.

He thought that Jiang Tianyi was usually resourceful and had a good chance of inheriting the position of Eastern Han Imperial Son.

But now, he realized he had misjudged him.

Jiang Tianyi was so extreme, and he even wanted to use schemes against a behemoth like the Primordial Heavenly Court.

Isn't this just asking for death, like disturbing the Grand Duke? And the kind of death that comes very quickly!

"Imperial Tutor, I have my own sense of propriety, don't worry!" Jiang Tianyi didn't know if he had listened to the Ghostly Underworld Taoist's advice.

He got up and left the palace, seemingly with his own plans.

"Sigh, just go ahead and court death then!"

"I'll go find the Second Imperial Prince; he might be more qualified than you to inherit the position of Eastern Han Imperial Son."

The Ghostly Underworld Taoist's persuasion was fruitless, and he walked out of the hall with his stooped, aged body.

Jiang Tianyi returned to his own palace and immediately called for several powerful individuals, asking, "Qin Sanniang, how long have you been an Immortal King?"

"Reporting to First Imperial Prince, this concubine became an Immortal King a hundred thousand years ago when the Law of Charm transformed into a Dao Law."

Qin Sanniang didn't know what the First Imperial Prince wanted to do, so she could only cup her hands in a salute.

"An Immortal King from a hundred thousand years ago? How much of a chance do you have against the Jade Pool Empress?" Jiang Tianyi frowned again.

"Six-four split; she has six parts, this concubine has four!" Qin Sanniang was silent for a moment before giving a conservative answer.

"If this Imperial Prince calls another Immortal King to join forces with you, do you have the confidence to defeat the Jade Pool Empress?"

Jiang Tianyi was somewhat expectant, staring at Qin Sanniang without blinking.

"It's possible, but, First Imperial Prince, why do you want to attack the Jade Pool Empress?"

"Are you not afraid of offending the Primordial Emperor Son?" Qin Sanniang was very surprised.

Jiang Tianyi, however, waved his hand and smiled mysteriously, "You just need to follow orders; don't ask about anything else."

"Go prepare yourself; tonight, you will accompany this Imperial Prince to the border!"

With that, Jiang Tianyi closed his eyes, fantasizing about capturing the Jade Pool Empress.

Seeing this scene,

Qin Sanniang's gaze was suspicious, but she had no other choice. She turned and left, planning to bring more people.

A day later... Outside the Eastern Cold Imperial Capital, deep within a continuous mountain range, in front of a wooden house.

Chu Wuci still hadn't recovered from the blow of the previous night. Now he felt truly useless.

Not only could he not protect Ma Lingshan, whom he had guarded for thirty years, but he also caused her father to be incinerated by karmic fire, his Divine Soul utterly destroyed.

If Ma Lingshan were to ask about it in the future, he truly wouldn't know how to face her.

Ma Lingshan was not only kind-hearted and had saved him, but she also stood by his side without hesitation when others mocked him.

To Chu Wuci, Ma Lingshan was like a pure and untainted snow lotus, untouched by the darkness of the Immortal Realm.

This was why he didn't care about others' opinions and stayed by Ma Lingshan's side as a live-in son-in-Law for thirty years.

Now, everything was too late.

Even if he became the Young Master of Tianyuan in a few days, his beloved might turn into an enemy... "Boy, don't be so dejected. It's just that Ma Wenxiong, that old dog, died. What's there to be sad about?"

"You are the Third Young Master of Tianyuan, and you'll soon complete the Young Master assessment to become the Young Master of the Tianyuan Clan."

"Your status is noble; there's no need to grieve for a dead old man."

Zhao Jun walked out of the wooden house, approached Chu Wuci, and patted his shoulder.

"But... but, Senior Zhao, Ma Wenxiong is Ma Lingshan's father!"

"He was destroyed by your karmic fire; you might be pleased, but this Junior will turn against his beloved!"

Chu Wuci's mouth was bitter, and his gaze towards Zhao Jun was very complex.

One was the Senior who saved him, the other was his beloved. He didn't want to offend either side, and being caught in the middle was truly painful.

"Haha, so that's what you're worried about!"

"Don't overthink it. When you see Ma Lingshan, you can simply say that her father was killed by this venerable one. She shouldn't blame you!"

"This venerable one kills based on whim; you don't need to care about this venerable one's feelings." Zhao Jun's words were frank, but inwardly, he really wanted to laugh.

What a poor wretch. Everything was orchestrated by His Highness Wang Qing from behind the scenes, yet he still had to be grateful.

He just wondered what kind of expression he would have when he learned the truth?

"Senior, you are truly a good person. This Junior thought you would be displeased, blaming this Junior for trying to please both sides!"

Chu Wuci's dejected expression changed, replaced by excitement.

He was originally afraid that if he told Ma Lingshan the truth, he would in turn offend Senior Zhao.

Now that Senior Zhao had said so, he had nothing to worry about.

Anyway, Ma Lingshan's father was killed by Senior Zhao, and since Senior Zhao didn't care,

He no longer hesitated and could completely tell Ma Lingshan the truth about her father's death.

This way, he would at least not be hated by Ma Lingshan.

"Haha, since you are no longer dejected, then follow this venerable one back to the Imperial Capital to meet the old man of heavenly secrets."

Zhao Jun grinned and said.

"Alright, this Junior also happens to be going to the Imperial Capital to take Ma Lingshan away from that troublesome place."

Chu Wuci nodded and followed Zhao Jun, leaving the mountain range and returning to the Imperial Capital.

With Zhao Jun, an Immortal Emperor expert, protecting him, he no longer feared the Eastern Han Immortal Court. His current goal was still to bring Ma Lingshan out of the Imperial Capital, which was important... At the same time... At the Eastern Han Border, across an endless expanse, the Void Realm opposite was shrouded in Chaos mist.

Without the strength of a Nine Heavens Profound Immortal, or a specialized Immortal seat carriage, crossing Immortal Domains was very unrealistic.

The five great Immortal Domains of the Immortal Realm were enveloped in Chaos mist, each independent, like ancient, isolated worlds.

Within the Chaos mist, a boat made of glazed jade stone slowly traversed.

The hull was inlaid with various complex and mysterious Dao patterns, emitting bursts of colorful light, very beautiful and moving.

Banners fluttered, inscribed with the two ancient characters "Jade Pool," and there was also a magnificent palace on the boat.

On the right side of the palace, Mu Bingxuan wore an ice-blue long dress, her three thousand strands of black hair flowing, revealing her peerlessly beautiful face.

She looked at the approaching Eastern Han Border, touching her lower abdomen with her hand, truly afraid of harming the dao embryo within.

"Oh, my daughter! You have truly made your mother suffer, unable to freely use Grandmist Law."

Mu Bingxuan's expression was depressed.

She had never been in contact with the opposite sex. Being imprisoned by Wang Qing in that way, she only felt that she had been too aloof before, which had attracted Wang Qing's attention.

Now that she had a fetus, she had long since cast aside the matter of being imprisoned for three months, focusing all her thoughts on the fetus in her womb.

But as a first-time mother, there were many things she didn't understand, and she was afraid of not being able to control her own power and harming the dao embryo in her womb.

This also caused her journey from the Primordial Beginning Immortal Domain to the Eastern Cold Immortal Domain, which was originally a three-day journey, to be delayed by several days.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Suddenly, thunderclouds rolled, the Chaos mist scattered, and the sky seemed to be cut open by a sharp blade.

A woman in a purple gauze dress appeared, her graceful figure shrouded in the Chaos mist, making her face unclear.

"Sister Xuan'er, I finally found you!"

The woman quickly landed on the boat, walked quickly to Mu Bingxuan's side, and looked her up and down... For a long time...

She covered her mouth, saying in disbelief: "Who did such a good deed, Sister Xuan'er, you... you're pregnant?"
