I don't understand the complexity of it, but I feel a little lucky... Since Mu Yu had said that the owner of the barrier would not die, and the barrier would not disappear, then that meant that Empress Pei was actually not dead yet? That's right, she had been trapped in a dream for a thousand years. Then, had she fallen into a coma?
So the reason why Mo Yu wanted to find the Chao Heavenly Jewel to concoct the thousand year old antidote was to save his mother.
I tried taking a few steps toward the door. Even though the anesthetic in my body hadn't completely dissipated yet, with the treatment from the last feather, it was already much better. I could basically walk slowly now.
I walked out of the hall and went outside. Suddenly, a fiery red light shone into my eyes.
In front of him was an oddly flourishing forest of Phoenix Flowers. The dark green canopy of the trees was like an umbrella canopy, and the fiery red flowers burned brightly. The bright flowers clustered together, forming a sea of red and jade. When the wind blew, the petals on the tree fell together and scattered like red cotton, and the ground seemed to be covered with a red carpet.
As I took a deep breath, a fragrant aroma filled my nose, spreading throughout my body and seeping into my skin, intoxicating me. It turned out that the fragrance that he had always smelled in the sleeping quarters was the fragrance of this Phoenix Flower. It was truly a beautiful fragrance.
I walked slowly along the tree-lined path, admiring the beauty and looking for the end feather. At last he found him by the blue spring.
He sat alone under a phoenix tree, facing the lake with his eyes closed. I finally understood why he would actually dare to wear red in the imperial palace. That was because that seductive red color was practically the same with the color of flowers in the Phoenix Forest, making it the best natural color for protection.
I hid behind a tree and peeped. My heart was struggling … Should she go up and talk to him? What if he lost his temper again? I don't want to be killed by him.
Mu Yu's eyes were not opened, but his voice was calm, as though he had calmed down. "Why are you hiding there? "Why aren't you coming over yet?"
I was embarrassed. "Ah, you found out!"
Finally, Peach Blossom Eyes looked at me and said, "Is your injury better? Before... "Does it still hurt?"
The Sect Leader actually condescended to ask me about my injuries, so naturally, I happily ran over and replied, "It doesn't hurt anymore! "Mu Yu, I know that you're in a bad mood. You hate my master, so it's fine even if you pinch me …" However, can you be a bit more gentle next time? "
Finally, Chu Yu looked straight at me. "Do you want a next time?"
I hastily waved my hands. "No, no!"
He then turned his head to look at the sky and sighed in admiration, "What a beautiful flower! It's red like fire! This lake is also blue, and is not worse than the lake in the Full Moon Valley of Mount South! "
Finally, Yu Mu said leisurely, "Ye Ruyu is like the feather of the Flying Phoenix, and her flower is like the crown of the Pill Phoenix … This was Phoenix Forest, the most beautiful place in the entire imperial palace. My mother used to love Phoenix Flowers the most, so she specifically planted them in the palace. "
There was a touch of sadness in his voice.
I hastily said, "She's really beautiful! That lake is also so blue! However, why does it have the name Spring Water when it's clearly a lake? "
Finally Yu said, "The phoenix does not stop at the wutong tree, neither does it practice nor eats, nor drinks at the lai spring. "This is the Pill Phoenix Palace. Of course, the name of the lake is Li Quan."
"Oh, Mo Yu is so cultured …"
Finally, Yu Mu sneered as he closed his eyes.
His cold appearance was truly frightening. I timidly asked, "About that … Mu Yu, when are we going to leave the palace?"
Finally, Yu said: "What's the rush? We haven't even gotten the pearl, how can I leave so easily?!" My mother is still waiting for that pearl to detoxify the poison! "
At this moment, I realized that he was playing with a black bead in his hand. I immediately recognized it … Morning Star Pearl!
I exclaimed, "You've got it?"
"Yes, it's in the Crown Prince's Palace."
Ah!" To think that it would be open to the public. They are really too crafty!
Mu Yu shook his head: "It's not that I'm crafty, it's just that this is the legacy that has been passed down through the generations of Heavenly Jewels."
"Oh?"
He explained, "The Chao Tian Pearl is the Imperial Jade Pearl that has been around for generations. It is also a divine item that existed since Pangu created the world. "Legend has it that this divine tool is extremely noble, and only those with a high destiny can bring it with them. Therefore, when the Emperor determines that a certain prince will be the crown prince, he will hand over the male pearl to him and let him carry it for a period of time. If that prince has the heavenly order to be the crown prince, he will be safe and sound for a period of time, and will be acknowledged as the next successor to the throne."
"And if not?"
"If that happens, you will be hit by a backlash towards the Tianxiong Pearl, and if you are slightly affected, you will be seriously injured, and if you are hit, you will lose your life!"
"Ah, so powerful? So the current crown prince is the chosen one? "
"Not necessarily." Mu Yu shook his head, "When I was the crown prince, I also wore the Chao Xiong Zhu Pearl. During that time, I was safe and sound, but when did I become the Son of Heaven? When I took this pearl, the crown prince did not bring it with me. Instead, he placed it in a box to pay tribute to it.
"You mean, the Crown Prince was actually afraid that he wouldn't be able to wear it. In order to prevent the Emperor from being suspicious, he did it on purpose."
Mu Yu nodded, "That's possible. However, that's not what I care about. What I need are two pearls. "
I think... It is said that saving a person's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Although I do not know what a pagoda is, saving a person's life is still a good thing ah …
I said, "I know where the female pearl is! I saw it last night in the Emperor's chamber! "
Mu Yu's eyes narrowed. "That's why I decided to stay here."
"Are you sure this place is safe enough?"
Finally, Yu said, "Don't worry, my mother will not easily break the enchantment that she has created using her entire cultivation. Besides, she has been sleeping here for twenty years and no one has ever disturbed her peaceful sleep. The current emperor hates my mother to death, so if he could attack, he would have long burnt this place to ashes, right? "
I was stunned. "Your mother is currently in the palace?"
"That year, she was poisoned by the thousand year old poison, but she still had to protect me while escaping. Because the situation is urgent, she entrusted me to a reliable palace while she lured all her pursuers to this vicinity of the Alchemy Phoenix Palace …" She created a barrier that sealed off the entire Pill Phoenix Palace. From then on, she fell into a coma and is naturally still in the palace. "
I was excited. "Can I see her?"
Finally, she looked at me and didn't answer.
In the depths of the Phoenix Forest, there was a tree house. It was delicate and exquisite in appearance, with a beautiful interior. Empress Pei was in the middle of the house.
Within the room, an exquisite bed collapsed, revealing a beautiful woman who was lying on it. Her eyes were closed, and she was in a deep slumber, as if she was in a sweet dream.
It was a woman as beautiful as a phoenix flower … He was extremely young and looked to be about the same size as his last feather. Even though his face was slightly pale due to being bedridden for a long time, his bright and beautiful facial features gave off an extremely strong sense of aggression. The last feather looked very much like her, and I was stunned.
Beautiful women could captivate a person's soul. Why would her master drug her like that?
I looked at him guiltily, but he was expressionless.
I knew that there must be some deep emotion in his heart, or else he would not have called out his mother's name in his sleep, but now he was looking at her with an expressionless face.
I murmured, "Your mother is very beautiful, very young."
Zhui Yu nodded, "Yeah …" It is because it has only been a dream for a thousand years, so her complexion has not aged. "
I sighed. "This medicine is really a good thing that will make people forever young."
Finally, Yu glared at me, and I immediately shut my mouth.
"Has she been in this house for twenty years?"
Mu Yu nodded.
I wondered, "If you missed her so much, why didn't you take her out of the palace? If you leave her here, don't you worry that the Emperor will harm her? "
Finally, Yu gave a wry smile, "Before I have the entire antidote, I have no confidence that I can protect her outside the palace." This was because if she were to leave the palace, she would likely be chased down by both the imperial government and the Evergreen Sect. Rather than letting her mother wander in the city, it would be better to just let her stay in the palace in peace. This is the place she loves to stay at, and also the safest place.
