“This is to be distributed to the soldiers and contributing ministers according to their needs.”

Zhao Huai took out several bottles of pills from the black ring and handed them to the other party.

“Understood. ”

Song Zhishu nodded solemnly, taking the porcelain bottle with both hands.

Given the cultivation talent of the Crown Prince, it is certain that he will be aiming for the Golden Core Realm in his next seclusion.

For Yan Country, this is undoubtedly a great boon.

“Then, this subordinate will take his leave.”

After watching him go, Zhao Huai looked at the plum blossoms slowly blossoming in the courtyard.

Seeing an object and thinking of a person, he couldn’t help but sigh softly.

Everyone in Yan Country considered him the Lord of Yan, showing him utmost respect. The new year was approaching and yet, he had not a single close friend here.

Was this what it felt like to be lonely at the top?

The road to Immortal Cultivation is long and destined to be lonely.

Using eight times the time acceleration of the Ancestral Artifact, the reincarnation treasured mirror.

He needed to breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm as quickly as possible.

Thousands of miles away, the Limitless Immortal Sect.

The spiritual mountains shrouded in immortality were also covered by pure white snow.

However, the sky occasionally resonated with the rumble of thunder.

An elder clad in a plain robe, his aura unfathomably profound, looked towards the snowy peak of the mountain, coughing from time to time.

“Hierarch, your time is running short.”

An elder in a white robe sighed next to him.

No matter what, the elder of the Limitless Immortal Sect had at least reached the Rebirth Realm. But looking at him, there was a lot of worry in his demeanor.

After breaking through to the Metamorphosis Stage, cultivators have an unspoken understanding not to cultivate further and to live in seclusion in forests and mountains, staying out of sight and out of trouble, in order to avoid a tribulation and entanglement in karma.

Since the collapse of the Immortal Path, this rule has been unbroken except by Ancestor Yan Zu.

And so, everyone in the Immortal Cultivation World believed that Yan Zu descended as an immortal, rather than ascended.

Now, the Hierarch of the Limitless Immortal Sect was facing this predicament.

His cultivation had been suppressed for too long. He had broken through to the Metamorphosis Stage a long time ago but had not crossed the tribulation. He had merely used a secret method to suppress it, maintaining a delicate balance.

However, he had meddled in too much karma recently, and this balance could no longer be maintained.

He was still embroiled in the heavenly such that fate had still locked onto him.

“Hierarch, without you, I’m afraid the Devil Sect will cause chaos again.”

“The disciples travelling in the Northern State have not yet returned. I fear the odds are against them.”

The elder in a white robe voiced his worries.

The world of Immortal Cultivation is not as calm as it seems on the surface.

The current peace is maintained by the Immortal Sect, or rather, it is maintained through the suppression by Yan Zu five hundred years ago.

Now that Yan Zu has been gone for a long time, some things can no longer be suppressed.

The Hierarch’s strength was the strongest among all the elders of the Immortal Sect.

Only he was capable of holding down the fort in the Spiritual Mountains.

The Hierarch of the Limitless Immortal Sect said, “The Devil Lord was seriously injured by Yan Zu. He won’t be reemerging within the next hundred years at least. Let the sect’s geniuses grow quickly. That is the best way to deal with the Devil Sect.”

“Elder Hai has been stationed in the Illusory Southern Sea, fishing for Spiritual Objects for five hundred years. If I’m no longer here, let him take over my position.”

The Xia’s Capital.

On the Imperial Court, civil and military officials were arrayed on both sides, contrasting the decadent demeanor of the young lord who was presently reigning.

Many of the young ministers were full of vigour, looking at the Empress on the Dragon Chair with longing.

Of course, there were also ministers with hidden malice who thought a woman wielding imperial power was inappropriate. But due to the Empress’s prestige, they did not dare to voice these thoughts.

“The old ministers have returned to court, and the issue of military reforms has been decided. If we don’t make radical changes, we could very well face extinction.”

“Your Majesty, the policy of civil governance was established by the previous emperor.. Isn’t altering it overnight damaging your prestige?”
