1791 Trouble

　　The entire Sky-Cloud Empire became busy.

　　His Grace’s wedding was a major event for the entire clan. Everyone naturally mobilized and didn’t dare to slack off at all.

　　During this period, Chu Liuyue became the most relaxed person.

　　As the wedding was imminent, she didn’t stay in Jishen Palace with Rong Xiu. Instead, she stayed at Changyi Mountain beside Suming Peak.

　　There were many courtyards on Changyi Mountain, and most of them were scattered, so Shangguan You and the others lived here.

　　In the beginning, Chu Liuyue even specially chose a suitable time to tell Shangguan You everything. Of course, she had meticulously picked out what to say. As for the more troublesome parts, she mostly skipped them.

　　Anyway, those things were in the past, and there was no point in talking about it. It would only make Father Emperor sad.

　　But even after hearing this, Shangguan You’s heart still ached. This made Chu Liuyue even more glad about not revealing everything.

　　On the other side, Chu Ning had been staying in his room ever since he came to Changyi Mountain.

　　On the one hand, he wanted her to catch up with Shangguan You. On the other hand, he wanted to focus on cultivating.

　　After arriving at the Sky-Cloud Empire, he realized more clearly that the strong were indeed respected here! If he continued to stay a stage-one warrior… Not only would he be looked down on, but he would also implicate Yue’er. Therefore, he focused almost all his attention and energy on this.

　　Fortunately, he already had the Indestructible Holy Body, and his talent had already taken a qualitative leap. Coupled with the abundant natural energy in the Sky-Cloud Empire, it was very beneficial to cultivation.

　　When Chu Ning cultivated, his speed could almost be said to be a thousand miles a day!

　　The next day, he directly broke through to become a stage-two warrior.

　　On the fifth day, he jumped to stage-three.

　　On the eighth day, he even leaped to become a stage-four warrior!

　　His physical body was his Holy Body. When he cultivated, his ability to devour and digest the surrounding energy was no different from a true god!

　　In this way, it would naturally be a piece of cake for him to increase his level.

　　As his strength increased rapidly, Chu Ning’s mood became better and better.

　　At this rate, he wouldn’t have to wait long to complete the breakthrough and become a true god!

　　Although true gods weren’t top-notch cultivators in the God Residence Realm, it was a huge improvement for Chu Ning. Back when he was in Country Yao Chen, he never thought that he would really be able to reach the legendary realm one day, and all of this was because he had met Yue’er!

　　As long as he could become stronger, he could protect Yue’er well in the future!

　　…

　　Chu Liuyue also focused on cultivating in her residence.

　　Rong Xiu had already arranged the wedding ceremony. There was almost no need for her to interfere.

　　After asking a few questions and realizing that she had worried for nothing, she decisively and wisely gave up on caring about this. Instead, she focused on her cultivation.

　　Although many accidents had happened, and she had encountered many dangers along the way, it was also very obvious that she had improved in all aspects. This was especially so in the God-Killing Tumulus, where she had definitely benefited greatly.

　　In the courtyard, she sat quietly on a stone bench.

　　She toyed with a stone in her hand, and there were a dozen pieces scattered at her feet.

　　These stones were the ones she had brought out of the God-Killing Tumulus.

　　They seemed to be placed messily on the ground, but in fact, she could clearly feel the power contained in every stone. And… the God Realms that were restless and wanted to be used!

　　Dong!

　　A stone rolled at her feet.

　　She looked down and raised her eyebrows. “No.”

　　Although there was a barrier outside Changyi Mountain, and outsiders weren’t allowed to enter and leave at will, it was always good to be cautious.

　　Each of these stones contained a God Realm. If she used it now, it would definitely cause a commotion.

　　How was she going to explain herself when she attracted a crowd?

　　Actually, these stones weren’t rare at all. They were just some broken tombstone shards picked up from the God-Killing Tumulus!

　　Thinking of that scene, Chu Liuyue subconsciously shivered and moved her feet away. “The Heaven and Earth Force here is rich enough for you to replenish your energy. Don’t cause trouble.”

　　She had already discovered that these rocks could devour the surrounding natural energy and transform it into their own strength, making their God Realms stronger. However, it was a little slow.

　　In fact, the efficiency of these stones in absorbing energy was already very high. They were almost comparable to cultivators with Dijing Yuan meridians. The reason she felt that it was slow was that she was too fast!

　　At her words, the stones finally fell silent again.

　　After watching for a while, Chu Liuyue threw out another portion. Some tumbled straight into the distant grass or down the steps.

　　As long as one didn’t look carefully, nobody would notice anything wrong with these stones.

　　A subtle fluctuation came from the distance.

　　She put down the stone in her hand and looked up.

　　It was Yu Mo.

　　He quickly walked over and stood in front of her. “Greetings, Princess Consort.”

　　Chu Liuyue turned and glanced at him. “Yu Mo, why are you so happy?”

　　The smile on his face couldn’t be concealed.

　　Yu Mo chuckled. “Princess Consort, Ms. Hongyu is here!”

　　Chu Liuyue’s eyes brightened up.

　　Immediately after, she heard a familiar clear voice. “Liuyue!”

　　Chu Liuyue looked up slightly and indeed saw a figure rushing over.

　　Her almond-shaped eyes were bright, and her eyebrows were raised. Who else could it be but Mu Hongyu?!

　　Chu Liuyue stood up and went forward to welcome her. “Hongyu, why are you only here now?”

　　Her Father Emperor was far away at Tianling and had already been here for a few days.

　　Mu Hongyu was in Ling Xiao Academy, so logically speaking, she should’ve arrived faster. For some reason, it had dragged on until now.

　　Mu Hongyu cupped her hands pitifully. “I was delayed by something at the last minute. You won’t blame me, will you?”

　　Chu Liuyue lifted her chin. “Tell me what delayed you first?”

　　At the mention of this, Mu Hongyu’s face fell. “Actually, it’s nothing much. I’ve just been busy breaking through recently…”

　　Chu Liuyue: “…Is that your reason?”

　　Mu Hongyu coughed. “Actually, that’s not entirely true. It’s just that something has happened in the academy recently…”

　　Chu Liuyue narrowed her eyes and instinctively felt that something was wrong. Mu Hongyu has always been passionate and enthusiastic about cultivation. Her aura has indeed improved, and she must’ve succeeded. If that is the case, why does she have such an expression?

　　“What happened at the academy?” She had been very busy recently and didn’t know much about the situation at the academy.

　　Mu Hongyu hesitated for a moment before standing up anxiously. “Sigh, it’s actually not a big deal! It’s just that… Jian Fengchi is also here!”
