Chapter 550: Precursor of Rebellion
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
After the Black Cauldron had absorbed thousands of murder souls, Ye Lingyue looked down at her internal Chaos Core, realizing the Yuan energy in the Core had strengthened once again.
She was convinced as long as she broke through the twenty-four level of the Underground Energy hell and made her first attempt to crash into the Heaven and Earth Tribulation, she would be bound to set foot on the Reincarnation Realm.
It only took Ye Lingyue two hours to break through the first level of the Underground Energy hell.
Six hours, for the second level.
One day, for the third level… In the following days, one after another of foul winds and rains of blood swept across the Underground Energy hell which had been in dead calm for hundreds of years.
At that moment, there were only a handful of days left before the imperial competition.
People in the Hong Mansion in Da Xia were busy with decorations these days.
The whole city has heard that the young lady of the Hong Mansion – Mingyue, princess of Da Xia was going to tie the nuptial knot with the young Lord of the Three Lives Valley.
Carrying the carefully prepared wedding gifts from the Three Lives Valley — a generous amount of dowry packaged in red cloth as well as numerous delicate carriages and precious horses, Luo Song arrived at the Hong Mansion.
Since Luo Sansheng, the Lord of the Three Lives Valley was still in a retreat for cultivation, an elder from the Valley came with Luo Song on behalf of the his lord.
“Master Hong, the Three Lives Valley was honored and delighted that our young lord and the darling daughter of the Hongs fell in love with each other. Therefore, my lord had specially ordered me to visit the Hong Mansion with the wedding letter and dowry. As for the wedding date of the couple, we think our two families need to sit down and discuss it later after Lord Luo finishes his cultivation. ” Countless wedding gifts in carriages abundant like flowing streams brought by the elder were taken to the Hong Mansion.
It was obvious that the Three Lives Valley set great store by this marriage. The whole Hong Mansion, except Hong Mingyue, was overjoyed and accepted Luo Song’s gifts for granted. To the anxiety of the old Master Hong however, the Ninth Realm Reincarnation Dan pill was still nowhere in his sight.
Master Hong had no alternative but asked Luo Song in person.
Until then Luo Song put on an act as if he was suddenly enlightened and handed the pill to Hong Qingyun.
“Congratulations to Master Hong. After absorbing this pill, you’ll definitely break through the Reincarnation Realm and become the most superior martial artist of Da Xia. ”
When he handed over the pill, Luo Song was also somewhat reluctant. Yet, the thought of his soon-to-be-married beautiful fiancée instantly brought a smile to his face.
“Thanks to the young lord that this treasure is secured by the Valley uneventfully. ” Hong Qingyun opened the box to have a glimpse of this treasure.
With his naked eyes, Hong Qingyun could feel the rare pill containing a terrible gust of reincarnation force.
“Hha. Master Hong, my young lord, it is time to change your address for each other. From now on, the Hong Mansion and the Three Lives Valley are one family. ” The elder of the Valley laughed.
The three were loaded with joy.
After Hong Qingyun sent away Luosong and the people from the Three Lives Valley, Hong Fang came in and felt it glaring when he saw the Ninth Realm Reincarnation Dan pill.
“Father, shall we reconsider Mingyue's marriage?” Hong Fang was truly fond of her daughter. How could he turn a blind eye to her forced smile during the day?
He could tell her daughter was not at all willing to marry Luo Song.
Hong Yuying's death had caused remorse in Hong Fang’s heart. He did not want his only daughter to suffer wrong again.
“Consider what, the engagement was personally accepted by Mingyue. All women will get married soon or later, especially for a filial girl like Mingyue. Luo Song may not be the best candidate though, but I can see he is sincere. Besides, as you can see, he is just a foolhardy idiot. With Mingyue’s talent, after the marriage, she will surely replace her husband and become the true master of the Three Lives Valley. At that time, the Valley and even Da Xia will be in the hands of the Hong Mansion. ” Hong Qingyun said sourly.
Hearing this, Hong Fang’s face changed.
“Father, so your purpose is?”
Although he had long been aware that Hong Qingyun was an ambitious man, Hong Fang did not expect that his father had already developed the intention of “usurping the throne”.
“Yes, emperors cannot be innate. Though Da Xia’s regime has been surviving for over 1,000 years, the reigning Emperor Xia was incompetent. For generations, the Hongs have been working hard for the royal family, but in the end, we got nothing. Over the years, I have been surrendering to Gu Cangtian and stooping low in court. Now we got a turnaround, the pill. It is only a matter of time before I break through the Divine Realm. ” Hong Qingyun snorted coldly.
On the matter of Ye Huangyu, it was obvious that the Emperor Xia did not want to lend a hand, thus Hong Qingyun always bore a grudge.
“Father, you should have a careful consideration on this. ” Hong Fang turned pale.
“I have made up my mind. Starting from tomorrow, I will retreat for cultivation and then break through the Divine Realm. The day of my success is the time the Hongs prevail. I have already asked your eldest brother to mobilize the power from the Buddhist Monks Sect. A couple of killers will assassinate the Emperor Xia and his son, taking advantage of the imperial competition. My kid, I know you are always far-sighted. In dealing with the stuffs of Ye Huangyu and her daughter, it was precisely because of our concessions that we are suffering today's consequences. This time, I hope you won’t let me down again. ” Hong Qingyun’s palm fell heavily on the shoulder of Hong Fang, who felt stiffened immediately with the unbearable pressure.
When walking out of Hong Qingyun’s courtyard, Hong Fang felt his pace was somewhat heavy.
Hong Qingyun’s words kept hovering in his ears.
Hong Fang had always been in awe of his father. Over the years, it was also thanks to Hong Qingyun that the Hong Mansion was able to win a seat in the imperial court of Da Xia.
If he broke through the Divine Realm, Da Xia would surely welcome its new owner.
The allure of the throne to Hong Fang was undoubtedly enormous.
What Hong Qingyun said just now was not so much encouraging as threatening. Hong Fang knew very well that his father was still weighing up between him and his eldest brother, as for whom be chosen as the heir.
Having the support from the Buddhist Monks Sect in hand, his eldest brother was undoubtedly more advantageous if they were really going to force the emperor to abdicate.
In the past, Hong Fang had the Sky Armor Sect as his pillar. Now, what did he have left?
Besides, the Three Lives Valley was temporarily could not be relied upon.
Hong Fang quickly walked into the study, as if reminded of something. He opened a book on his desk.
What inside the book was a letter, which was sent from North Qin about one month ago.
The letter from North Qin Dan Palace... As early as when the noble Consort Luo gave him the Reincarnation Dan pill, Hong Fang had doubted that the power behind her was Dan Palace.
However, he did not expect that the backer would be Chen Hongru of North Qin.
In the letter, Chen Hongru indicated that he could help Hong Fang.
Hong Fang took the letter and read it for a long time until his eyesight was nearly blurred. He decided to make a reply. After writing a letter overnight, Hong Fang ordered his confidant to send the letter to North Qing.
Nevertheless, what Hong Fang had never expected was that his “confidant” did not go to North Qing after sneaking out of the Hong Mansion in the dim light of night. Instead, he turned into a very humble mansion in Da Xia.
The mansion was the secret base of the Ghost Sect in Da Xia.
After the death of “Ye Lingyue”, the Ghost Sect seemed to disappear. Thus, Hong Fang’s eldest brother took the opportunity to expand the power of the Buddhist Monks Sect and seized many businesses from the Ghost Sect. Hong Shizi was also complacent about this.
However, what he did not know was that all this was the plot of Yan Che’s group. They deliberately gave Hong Shizi some illegal and shady business.
“Lord, this is a letter from Hong Fang to ‘Chen Hongru’. " The “confidant” handed Hong Fang’s letter to Yan Che.
“Well done. ” Yan Che accepted the letter.
