Gu Qing was indeed very angry. She had gone through great difficulty to hide, yet she was told to meet the Emperor of Stellar Kingdom. The more people who knew her, the more dangerous it would be. But facing Leng Wuye, she could not lose her temper, because Leng Wuye had helped her too much.

Since a monarch had spoken, she simply could not reject it, because it would implicate Leng Wuye. After struggling to calm his heart for a while, Gu Qing finally nodded and said: "Okay, when will he see me?"

Seeing that Gu Qing was not angry, Leng Wuye's heart relaxed: "If it's convenient for you, then why not follow me into the palace?"

Since he couldn't avoid it, what could he do tomorrow? Upon hearing his words, he nodded his head and said, "En, alright, I will follow you into the palace."

If they were to enter the palace, Leng Wuye would naturally not push the wheelchair, and it was also impossible for Gu Qing to abandon him and fly in.

Gu Qing sat on the left, lifted the curtain and looked out at the bustling streets and cities, her heart a little complicated. Thus, she did not notice Leng Wuye's gaze.

Ever since the last time he saw Wu Chen buying Disguising Pill at her medicine store, Leng Wuye had never had the chance to see her. The suspicion in his heart grew deeper: Why did Wu Chen want to buy Disguising Pill?

Both of them harbored their own thoughts as they waited for the carriage to enter the imperial city. It was only when the coachman called for it to stop did they regain their wits.

"Wu Chen, we're here." Although Leng Wuye couldn't move his legs, they were still priceless.

Gu Qing lightly nodded, and looked at him, "Do you need my help?"

Leng Wuye shook his head, "There's no need, you go down first and wait for me."

Hearing that he said there was no need, Gu Qing did not insist, and bent down to get out of the carriage. Very quickly, Leng Wuye was helped onto his specially made wheelchair.

Leng Wuye sat on the wheelchair and smiled towards Gu Qing, "Wu Chen, no matter what my Royal Father says, I hope that you do not mind."

Gu Qing was suspicious, but did not say much. Leng Wuye led her to a vast palace, he stopped for a bit and turned, "Let's go."

Gu Qing was already prepared, but when she thought of seeing the emperor, her heart thumped. Although in the eyes of mortals, they were existences akin to immortals, Gu Qing had lived in the market since childhood and knew that the emperor was an unreachable existence.

Although she was not sure, but seeing Leng Wuye's straight back on his wheelchair, she calmed down, and followed Leng Wuye slowly into the side hall.

Gu Qing raised her head and saw a middle-aged man who was currently sitting on top of a wheelchair and reading a memorial. His brows slightly furrowed and his appearance was actually somewhat similar to Leng Wuye.

"Royal Father, Daoist Priest Wu Chen has brought Wu Chen here to pay respects to Royal Father." Leng Wuye pushed his wheelchair forward, and the sound broke the silence of the room.

Hearing that, the man reading the memorial raised his head, a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes swept across Gu Qing, and then fell on Leng Wuye's body, "Wu Ye is here, so this is Taoist Wu Chen?"

The Emperor of Stellar Kingdom placed down the red brush, and his piercing eyes eased up slightly as a smile appeared on his face.

Leng Wuye also laughed, and turned to look at Gu Qing, "Wu Chen, this is my Royal Father."

Gu Qing nodded, "Wu Chen greets Your Majesty."

The Emperor of Stellar Kingdom turned his gaze towards Gu Qing, then said with a smile: "I heard from Longyin that your talent is not low, in the future, if you have any needs in cultivation, you can tell me."

Gu Qing also smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Emperor of Stellar Kingdom opened his mouth, as if he was about to say something. Suddenly, a eunuch walked in hastily.

The emperor immediately shut his mouth and turned his gaze to the rushing eunuch. "What is it?"

The eunuch glanced at Gu Qing, then slowed down his footsteps and walked to the emperor's side. He lowered his voice and said a few words.

The emperor of the Stellar Kingdom was obviously very surprised. His expression was first one of surprise, and then joy. "Please, quickly!"

Although Gu Qing's eyes were lowered, she heard the words the eunuch said in a low voice, causing her back to go cold. She immediately raised her head and bid farewell to the Emperor of Stellar Kingdom.

"Dao Friend Wu Chen, don't be in such a hurry to leave. The people who have come are the elite disciples of the Xuanhua Sect.

It was precisely because she was a disciple of the Xuanhua Sect that Gu Qing wanted to leave in such a hurry. Although she wasn't certain whether it was really Shen Chang, as long as it was someone related to Shen Chang, she would try her best to avoid them so that her identity wouldn't be seen through.

The reason she left the Huaqing Palace and appeared here was because of Shen Chang, how could she dare to take the risk to meet someone?

However, the Emperor had already said so. If she didn't want to use a complete excuse, it would be hard for her to leave. Just as she was racking his brains to think of a countermeasure, Leng Wuye seemed to be able to see through her thoughts, and gently said to Royal Father: "Royal Father, Wu Chen just managed to reach Foundation Establishment, his cultivation has not stabilized yet. If it wasn't for you wanting to meet her, I'm afraid that she would not have taken a step out of the cave, and now that he has done so, Royal Father should let Wu Chen return earlier to stabilize her cultivation."

When the emperor of the Stellar Kingdom saw her own beloved son speaking, and adding that he did not insist Wu Chen see the person from the Xuanhua Sect, he nodded: "Originally, we had some things that we wanted to discuss with Dao Master Wu Chen in detail. Since Dao Master Wu Chen is anxious to consolidate her cultivation, we might as well change days."

Gu Qing heaved a sigh of relief and cast a grateful glance at Leng Wuye. Then, she said, "Yes, Wu Chen will enter the palace another day to pay respects to Your Majesty."

With that, she impatiently turned around and walked away. Little did he know that as Leng Wuye watched her leaving, a glimmer flashed past his eyes.

Gu Qing wished that she could immediately fly out of the side hall, but it was disrespectful of her to leave right before she left. If the Emperor of Stellar Kingdom was not Leng Wuye's Royal Father, she might not have minded, but right now she had no choice, she could only increase her speed.

After walking out of the first hall, Gu Qing's feet almost touched the ground as she quickly rushed out of the door. However, just as she was about to step out of the hall, she heard the sound of footsteps coming from outside the hall.

Gu Qing's expression changed. She wanted to retract her foot, but it was too late. Seemingly the instant her body leapt out of the hall door, she met Shen Chang's gaze.

She took in a deep breath and resisted the impulse to turn her head around. Then, without batting an eyelid, she slowly turned around and left in the opposite direction from Shen Chang.

It was doubtful that she would be able to walk at the same pace as usual. However, after she held her breath and walked for close to ten steps, she suddenly heard a voice from behind her, "Stop!"

Gu Qing's spine stiffened, she almost instinctively wanted to fly up, but she resisted. She didn't forget that she had swallowed a Disguising Pill before, so it shouldn't be that easy for Shen Chang to recognize her.

That was why he was barely able to hold on until Shen Chang came to her side.

She raised her head, "I wonder why Fellow Taoist is calling me?"

Shen Chang sized her up from head to toe, and then frowned. "Who are you? Why did you turn around and leave the moment you saw me? "

At this moment, Gu Qing was thinking in her heart. Fortunately, she didn't fly away, otherwise, he would definitely have been caught by Shen Chang and allowed him to see through her real body.

She tried her best to calm down, before replying, "I'm not acquainted with Fellow Taoist, I just choose this path."

"Is that so?" Shen Chang obviously did not believe her, and stared at her face for a moment more, "Have I seen you somewhere before?"

Gu Qing did not immediately deny it, but only said: "Perhaps I have seen him before, but in the vast world, perhaps Fellow Taoist only sees people who look similar to me."

Shen Chang stared at the other party for a long while, but did not detect any weak points from the other party's body, and only then did he wave his hand: "It's possible that I recognized the wrong person."

With that, he took a step and left Gu Qing's side.

Gu Qing did not immediately fly away, but waited for the figure of Shen Chang and the rest to enter the palace hall and heave a sigh of relief, then immediately flew up, leaving the palace.

The emperor and Leng Wuye of the Stellar Kingdom had already been waiting for a long time. When Shen Chang went in, the emperor of the Stellar Kingdom had obviously treated him a lot more politely than he had with Gu Qing.

"Various Immortal Master of the Xuanhua Sect have come to visit my Stellar Kingdom, bringing glory to my humble dwelling." The emperor laughed as she glanced at Shen Chang and the others. With a single glance, she could tell that Shen Chang, who stood at the very front, was the center of this group of people.

Shen Chang was unlike Gu Qing; his grandfather was the High Ranked Cultivator, so he had never placed mortals in his eyes. Even if the one in front of him was a mortal emperor, he did not show any respect, and only said: "We have come here because there is something that I need to trouble Your Majesty to take note of on my behalf."

"Oh? "What is it?" The emperor naturally wouldn't refuse. Normally, he would rush to form a relationship with those great cultivator sects, but he didn't have the opportunity to do so. Now that he had come knocking to ask for help, he was naturally eager to do so.

Shen Chang did not say a word, but ordered his men to slowly open a picture scroll.

Leng Wuye was a cultivator in the past, although he had been crippled, he was secretly afraid of these Immortal Master. He calmly watched as the person slowly unfurled a painting scroll. "Gradually, a pitch-black head of cloud appeared in his line of sight, and his eyes twinkled.

The person was extremely fast, and the scroll painting was quickly unfurled. When everyone could clearly see the man on the painting, including Leng Wuye, everyone was stunned.

The person on the painting was a peerless beauty. She was breathtakingly beautiful, and there was a hint of arrogance and coldness on her face, making people feel as if she was a bit too high to reach.

Shen Chang captured everyone's reaction in his eyes and nodded his head. This painting was drawn by him personally, even if it did not have Gu Qing's complete charm, it would still be eighty to ninety percent. Even one of the top beauties in Cultivation Realm could not suppress these mortals!

Leng Wuye should be the first person who recovered from his shock. He frowned slightly, turned towards Shen Chang's direction, and did not speak.

Even the emperor of the mortal world didn't dare to rashly think about the peerless beauty in the Immortal Master's painting.

"This... What does Immortal Master want us to do? " The emperor pointed to the portrait and turned to ask Shen Chang.

"If Your Majesty finds this woman within the Stellar Kingdom, please send someone to the Xuanhua Sect to notify me." Shen Chang smiled slightly.

So that's how it was!

"Naturally. If this girl is within my Stellar Kingdom, I will definitely send someone to notify Immortal Master."

Shen Chang nodded his head in satisfaction. In the past few months, he did not manage to find Gu Qing's whereabouts even when she was near the Star Sea. It was also impossible for him to spend all his time searching for the other party, which was why he found the emperor of Stellar Kingdom, wanting to use the power of an entire country to find the person for him.
