Chapter 177 Empress Youlan
Upon hearing this, Emperor Youlan did not react immediately. He looked at Lin Zhao for a while before raising his hand and ordering everyone below to leave.

Once only he and Lin Zhao remained in the main hall, Emperor Youlan looked at the location of the Youlan Imperial Preceptor's Mansion and said, "Perhaps, when the three Venerables thoroughly investigated the affairs of the Ancestral Dragon Continent, I already knew this day would come."

Lin Zhao was surprised that Emperor Youlan knew about the Imperial Preceptor and the Ancestral Dragon Continent. He subconsciously tensed up, ready to have Granny Honghu take action if the emperor dared to make a move.

"No need to be so nervous, little girl. You are now the most sought-after prodigy of the South China Sea Academy. If I dare to touch you, the entire empire will be lost." Emperor Youlan glanced at Lin Zhao with a half-smile.

“Wen Gui is indeed not my son. Before I knew that the Grand Preceptor still had dealings with the Ancestral Dragon Continent, I thought he would be my son for life.”

Lin Zhao remained silent for a long time before finally replying to the words of Granny Honghu in her mind: "Your Majesty is truly magnanimous."

Although Ning Wengui is not your son, he is clearly the son of Empress Youlan, so Empress Youlan is...

"Open-minded?" Emperor Youlan asked himself, then shook his head: "You'll understand when you sit in my position. Although Wen Gui is not my son, there is no problem for him to succeed to the throne of Youlan, because he is my nephew."

Lin Zhao vaguely remembered that the Imperial Preceptor of Youlan was appointed because of the Emperor's appreciation; it seemed that the Youlan Empire had never had such a person before.

"Is the Imperial Advisor your brother?"

"He is my half-brother. His mother was the eldest princess of a dynasty on the Ancestral Dragon Continent. She fled to the Heavenly Phoenix Continent because she was being hunted down by her enemies. She was seen by my father, who was traveling incognito at the time. Later, his mother returned to the Ancestral Dragon Continent and gave birth to him. It was only when the Imperial Preceptor came of age that he learned about his true identity."

Lin Zhao said, "Since you don't mind handing the throne to your brother's son, why not just announce his identity to the public?"

"Because of their origins, the Yulan Empire has gained a Grand Preceptor out of nowhere, which can be considered a sign of imperial favor. However, if a prince were to be added, not to mention anything else, the other major empires that compete with the Yulan Empire would use this as an excuse. If the true origins of the Grand Preceptor are investigated, then the Yulan Empire would be unable to defend itself."

Lin Zhao vaguely understood that the reason why the current Emperor Youlan was so generous in acknowledging the origins of the Imperial Preceptor and Ning Wengui's identity was because Ning Wengui had received the protection of the Liangyi Palace.

"Are you aware of everything your younger brother has done on the Heavenly Phoenix Continent?"

Emperor Youlan sighed, "I am, after all, the emperor of the Youlan Empire, a person of the Tianhuang Continent, little girl. If I had known, how could I have allowed him to scheme against the aristocratic families of the Tianhuang Continent time and time again?"

Although almost all of these calculations fell on the Lin family and the mortal realm.

However, when forces from one continent face forces from another, they live and die together. Emperor Youlan is not so naive as to think that the Grand Preceptor's scheme to destroy the Lin family would bring any benefit to the Youlan Empire.

Lin Zhao wanted to ask more, but an elegant female voice came from deep within the Youlan Palace: "There's no need to ask him the rest. Ask me. Ning Youze really doesn't know anything."

Lin Zhao looked toward the source of the gaze, and a pair of purple eyes appeared first in her field of vision, followed by skin as white and flawless as snow. A beauty sculpted from ice and jade slowly walked out, and even in plain clothes, her stunning beauty could not be concealed.

She was also extremely beautiful. Although Ning Wengui resembled her father more, she clearly inherited the exquisite beauty from her mother.

Even with Lin Zhao's discerning eye, accustomed to seeing beauties, she had to find fault with this emperor and empress, and had to admit that they were flawless. "Emperor, why did you come out?" Emperor Youlan was visibly alarmed.

Empress Youlan shook her head at her nominal husband and said only to Lin Zhao, "You must be Sister Yun's child. Just as they said, what a beautiful Fairy Hanyue."

Being praised as a fairy by such a beautiful woman, Lin Zhao rubbed her face, feeling a little embarrassed.

"If only Wen Gui were blessed with good fortune," Empress Youlan said lightly, then bypassed Emperor Youlan and sat down in the seat symbolizing the Youlan throne. She had her maid bring another chair and place it above her, and then spoke to Lin Zhao.

"Sit down. I can tell you anything you want to know, but it might take a long time."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Youlan moved his lips, but upon seeing Empress Youlan's skin, which was as white as ice and snow, he slowly fell silent.

"When my family chose me to marry into the Yulan Empire, I didn't know that the one who actually valued me wasn't the then-Crown Prince of Yulan, but the current Imperial Advisor, Youyuan. Moreover, he didn't value me as a person, but rather my eyes." The Empress of Yulan pointed to her eyes, which everyone would praise as extremely beautiful, a hint of mockery flashing in them.

"Their scheme was far more elaborate than we thought."

Empress Youlan glanced at Emperor Youlan, who stood beside her with a guilty expression, and seemed to chuckle.

"When I thought that I, a distant relative of the Lin family, could become the future Empress of Emperor Youlan because of Ning Youze's affection, I was immersed in that so-called Glazed Body Tempering Liquid on the day of our wedding, which completely dispelled my idea."

"Glazed Body Tempering Liquid? No wonder the Purple-Eyed Glazed Body, which hasn't been seen for ten thousand years, has appeared on the Heavenly Phoenix Continent. I was wondering why the Heavenly Phoenix Continent could nurture two Heavenly Phoenix Maidens while also producing the Purple-Eyed Glazed Body!" Granny Honghu exclaimed in surprise in Lin Zhao's sea of ​​consciousness.

Lin Zhao quickly asked, "Teacher, what is Glazed Tempering Liquid?"

"It's an extremely insidious method. In the ancient times, when spiritual energy was abundant, the Purple-Eyed Glazed Body was a sacred body rarely seen even once in ten thousand years. Its birth requires perfect timing, location, and human factors. Frankly speaking, the current Heavenly Phoenix Continent doesn't meet any of the standards for the birth of a Purple-Eyed Glazed Body. However, it's said that there's a method on the Three Emperors Continent that can catalyze the creation of a Purple-Eyed Glazed Body through some extreme methods. But those catalyzed Purple-Eyed Glazed Bodies are inherently extremely weak, and at most won't live past five years old. Unless they are protected by someone with great fortune..."

Grandma Honghu fell silent at this point, along with Lin Zhao.

"Before Ning Wengui was five years old, we were engaged. Was this marriage contract a form of protection?"

Before the age of five, Lin Zhaohuang's fate was complete and without any defects.

"Of course it counts."

Grandma Honghu continued, "I always thought that extreme method only existed in legends. After all, the method is extreme, and the things used are too demanding. This Glazed Body Tempering Liquid is made by using the essence blood of a real person with purple eyes and a glazed body as a guide, and adding the heart blood of tens of thousands of spirit beasts with extremely cold attributes. It is said that although it looks clear and crystal clear, it smells extremely bloody and feels extremely cold to the touch. This is only one of the necessary conditions. In addition, a virgin with a pure yin body who is born with purple eyes must take the immortal pill Purple Extreme Pill, soak in the Glazed Body Tempering Liquid for eighty-one days, and then conceive immediately in order to have a chance to give birth to a person with a purple-eyed glazed body."

Lin Zhao was astonished by the series of harsh conditions. It was clear that the Imperial Advisor had been preparing for this for a long time, all for the sake of obtaining a purple-eyed glass body that would die at the age of five.

What are they going to do?
