BXBX NOVEL Chapter 57 - The Empress Reborn! Both Princesses Head to Beiyang
Three flood dragons were comfortably lying on the ground, seemingly napping.
“Flood dragons!” Ran Yuwei’s eyes lit up when she saw them.
Who would have thought the Crown Prince would use flood dragons to pull his carriage? This was a dream come true for her! Following the Crown Prince truly had many benefits.
“These beasts are still sleeping. I’ll whip them a few times!” a sword guard shouted.
“No need.” Lin Qi’an looked at Ran Yuwei, smiling: “Release Jiuying and give them a surprise.”
“Pfft, Your Highness is so bad…” Ran Yuwei also found it exciting and released Jiuying from the spirit pot.
“Roar!!” As soon as the dragon-bodied, snake-tailed beast emerged, it let out a thunderous roar.
The three flood dragons woke up in shock and were so scared they wet themselves!
They curled up in a ball, wondering where the Crown Prince had brought this terrifying beast from, fearing for their lives.
“Gah, gah, gah~~”
Ran Yuwei laughed loudly, not at all like a reserved and gentle saintess, but more lively and open.
“Alright, you can rest in the second line from now on.”
“Jiuying, this is your first job. If you perform well, I’ll reward you with a few Profound Golden Pills to repair that damaged head.”
“I will do my best to please the Crown Prince!” Jiuying spoke in a woman’s voice.
At this moment, its eight heads were bouncing around, as happy as a 300-pound child.
Following the Crown Prince was already showing its benefits.
Ran Yuwei put the three flood dragons into the pot, instructing them not to bully her little animals.
Then she climbed onto Jiuying’s back, patting its head.
With a soft fist, she threatened, “Show your fierceness again, and if you don’t perform well, I’ll report you to the Crown Prince!”
“Roar…” Jiuying dragged the golden carriage into the air, setting off.
“Drive!” Ran Yuwei held a leather whip, happily whipping Jiuying as her hair fluttered in the wind.
Meanwhile, the two saintesses sat inside the carriage with Lin Qi’an. The new sister was naturally pure and lively, a significant threat!
……
Tianlang Immortal Dynasty, Tai’an Imperial City!
The largest city in the Canglan Dao Domain.
Vast and boundless, home to tens of billions of citizens and countless strong cultivators.
Light streaks were often seen in the sky, and powerful cultivators frequently broke through, their auras soaring to the heavens.
The streets were bustling, filled with people, a symbol of prosperity.
The Divine Dragon Army, White Tiger Army, Fire Phoenix Army, and Black Tortoise Army guarded the city, deterring any foreign cultivators from causing trouble unless they had a death wish.
The city was divided into the outer city, inner city, and palace city. The outer city was the largest, mainly housing common citizens.
The inner city was the backbone, home to ordinary cultivators, prestigious families, and wealthy merchants. The palace city housed powerful cultivators, nobles, and royal family members, all of high status.
Within the palace walls, under a pavilion by a lotus pond, two people sat facing each other.
“Outrageous!” A man in a yellow robe slapped the stone table.
The maids on both sides instinctively closed their eyes, holding their breath.
“The Crown Prince of Beiyang, Lin Qi’an, dares to destroy sects and holy lands at will! He doesn’t even give face to the Zhao family and dares to run wild in Nanyue.”
Zhao Ziyu, the eldest son and crown prince, wore a golden robe with dragon patterns and a white jade belt adorned with birds, flowers, and fish.
“Sister, this is your fiancé! He is lawless!”
Zhao Ziyu was furious, but the woman sitting across from him showed no expression. Her eyes, filled with stars, gazed at the pond, lost in thought.
Dressed in a golden gown, she exuded an indescribable noble aura. Her sharp, beautiful face seemed to encompass all beauty, making people marvel.
Her beauty could topple kingdoms, captivating all. The world ranked her first among peerless beauties! She was Princess Zhao Yunji.
It was said that when she was born, a heavy rain fell on Tai’an City, but she didn’t cry. Instead, she smiled. Her smile cleared the skies, and a rainbow appeared.
“Your woman was taken; what does that have to do with me?” Zhao Yunji seemed indifferent to her brother’s plight and offered no comfort.
“The one who took my woman is your fiancé! How does it not concern you?”
“I have never acknowledged this engagement. Besides, he hasn’t set foot in Tai’an City in twenty years. He is unworthy.”
Their engagement was arranged by their fathers when they were children. The Sword Emperor and the Emperor of Tai’an were comrades who built the immortal dynasty together.
It was natural for the Emperor to marry his daughter to strengthen the bond between the two families. But for twenty years, the younger generation of these families had never met.
The reason was simple which was neither wanted to go to the other’s place.
You don’t come to Taijian City, I don’t go to Tai’an City. Let’s never meet.
“He, Lin Qi’an, indeed doesn’t deserve you, sister!”
“He doesn’t dare enter Tai’an City, doesn’t dare meet you, yet goes around collecting maids and even took the woman I fancied. Outrageous! Hmph, men are all the same, aren’t they?”
Zhao Yunji glanced at her brother with her beautiful eyes: “You’ve collected over a hundred bed maids, haven’t you? He only took one.”
“I… I…” Zhao Ziyu couldn’t refute, his face turning red as he shouted: “He took three!”
“What?” Unexpectedly, hearing this, the princess turned her gaze towards him. Her slightly narrowed eyes seemed to contain stars and galaxies.
“He first took the Saintess of Tianchi, then the Saintess of Ziyou, and recently took a third one from the desert…”
Splash!
Two splashes erupted from the lake, shooting several meters high, startling the maids who instinctively shrank back.
Zhao Ziyu’s mouth twitched…
His beautiful sister’s face was now covered with frost. Just now, she said it didn’t concern her, but now she wasn’t calm.
“In a few days, I will personally go to Beiyang.” Zhao Yunji took a deep breath.
“For what?”
“To annul the engagement.”
“Great, sister, I knew you wouldn’t sit by! Remember, bring Su Xueni back for me.”
“Get lost!”
……….
In another part of the palace city, Qingle Palace.
The Emperor of Tai’an wasn’t a devoted man; he had many concubines and numerous children. Qingle Palace housed his most beloved youngest daughter.
Zhao Qingmeng.
This eighteen-year-old girl was known as a bewitching beauty capable of bringing down a country.
Compared to her dignified sister, she was more lively and charming, loved by many.
Due to her seclusion in the palace, few had seen her, and she wasn’t ranked among the peerless beauties.
But if truly evaluated, her beauty could rank in the top five!
On the fragrant bed.
Zhao Qingmeng suddenly woke up. She looked at her hands in disbelief, stunned for a moment.
Muttering to herself: “I have been reborn?”
No one would have thought that a hundred years later, this girl with no cultivation talent would become a formidable empress!
Yes, the Empress reborn, living two lives. The scene of rivers of blood seemed to replay in her mind.
Corpses everywhere, utterly helpless…
“Lin Qi’an, why didn’t you come to save me? Didn’t you promise? You heartless man, how cruel!” Muttering his name, she clenched her fists, her teeth grinding.
“Someone! Prepare the carriage to Beiyang.”
If her memory was correct, her sister would also head to Beiyang soon. From then on, her sister’s relationship with Lin Qi’an would officially begin.
She must reach there first, win over Lin Qi’an and then kill him!
