Goddess Atlas, Starting from the Queen

Mu Yunyan had no interest in the financial power of the Prince's Mansion. Even after getting married, she still longed to slay demons and monsters.

Neither Su Wanyun nor Xiao Qingyun were surprised by Mu Yunyan's words, as they already knew what kind of person Mu Yunyan was.

However, now that she is a princess, she should take over the affairs of the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion. If she doesn't manage the affairs of the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion, people outside will definitely say that Su Wanyun and Xiao Qingyun control the mansion, which is why she can't manage things.

Su Wanyun then said, "Your Highness, if you don't take over the various affairs of the Prince's Mansion, it may be detrimental to the mansion if word gets out."

Mu Yunyan asked, "Why is that?"

Su Wanyun said, "In the past, Qingyun and I were in charge of all the affairs of the Prince's Mansion because there was no mistress of the mansion. Now that there is a mistress of the mansion, if the two of us continue to manage the mansion, people will gossip, which will affect the reputation of the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion."

Upon hearing Su Wanyun's words, Mu Yunyan immediately realized what was going on, but she said nonchalantly, "I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and I am not familiar with household management. If I were to take over the various affairs of the Prince's Mansion, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before I made a mess of the entire mansion."

"Besides, I heard from the King that he has a close relationship with his two elder sisters, so there is nothing wrong with you continuing to manage the affairs of the palace."

"As for what outsiders might say, let them say it."

This……

After all, she was a woman who practiced martial arts, so she valued strength more and didn't care much about reputation.

Su Wanyun and Xiao Qingyun were stunned again. Although they knew that Mu Yunyan was not interested in managing the household affairs, she was still a princess. It seemed a bit unreasonable for her to completely shirk her responsibilities.

Su Wanyun knew that if she continued to persuade Mu Yunyan, Mu Yunyan would probably not take over the affairs of the Prince's Mansion, so she simply stopped trying to persuade her. "Alright then, we will temporarily continue to manage the Prince's Mansion on behalf of the Princess. However, if the Princess wishes to take over the affairs of the Prince's Mansion at any time, please let us know."

Su Wanyun planned to talk to Lu Ming about this matter, since Lu Ming was the male head of the household, and if he spoke up, Mu Yunyan would probably take over the affairs of the Prince's Mansion.

Mu Yunyan said, "Alright, then I'll trouble you two sisters."

……

Several days passed in the blink of an eye. Because he had just married Mu Yunyan, and in order to take care of his princess, Lu Ming had not touched any other women these past few days, and had only doted on Mu Yunyan.

However, this caused Mu Yunyan great distress. Although Lu Ming had the medical skills to heal people, she was being teased every night, and she didn't even realize that her mind was starting to become a little dazed.

Especially during the day, when she wanted to practice martial arts, she felt her body swaying.

Finally, Mu Yunyan could no longer bear it.

Late at night, in Lu Ming's room.

Mu Yunyan raised her jade-like hand and supported it against Lu Ming's chest, her eyes staring straight at him.

Seeing Mu Yunyan staring intently at him, Lu Ming asked, "What's wrong?"

Mu Yunyan said, "Your Majesty... could you perhaps choose someone else..."

Once she got along with Lu Ming, Mu Yunyan became familiar with him and was no longer as shy as she had been at the beginning; she also spoke more directly.

Lu Ming said with a smile, "The Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion has a small population. I don't have any children yet. We've only just gotten married, so naturally I have to pamper you a bit. Otherwise, how could you get pregnant?"

Mu Yunyan pursed her lips. She didn't dare tell Lu Ming that she actually used her internal energy to cleanse her body of impurities every time.

Seeing that Mu Yunyan didn't speak, Lu Ming grabbed her hand that was supporting his chest, pressed her wrist above her head, and then leaned down to look at her, their noses almost touching. Seeing Lu Ming suddenly so close, Mu Yunyan suddenly felt a little guilty; she was afraid that Lu Ming knew what she had done.

Lu Ming then asked, "Don't you want to have my child?"

Mu Yunyan said, "I don't have such thoughts."

Lu Ming sensed Mu Yunyan's guilty conscience and asked with a smile, "You don't use your internal energy every time...?"

Lu Ming hesitated, but when he finished speaking, he could clearly sense Mu Yunyan's emotional fluctuations. It was obvious that Mu Yunyan had really done that.

Although she married Lu Ming, Mu Yunyan didn't actually want to have children so soon. She wanted to improve her cultivation more. For martial artists, having children too early would have a great impact on their health and damage their martial arts foundation.

Lu Ming naturally understood what Mu Yunyan was thinking. He took out a Body Tempering Pill and said, "This is a pill that can help you break through. Take it, and I will help you break through to the Celestial Realm tonight."

Mu Yunyan was slightly taken aback when she saw the pills that had suddenly appeared in Lu Ming's hand.

She could hardly believe that what Lu Ming said was true—that someone could break through to the Celestial Realm in just one night?

"Is what Your Majesty said true?"

Lu Ming said, "You are my queen, I wouldn't lie to you."

Lu Ming directly stuffed the pill into Mu Yunyan's mouth, and Mu Yunyan swallowed it without hesitation. The moment she swallowed it, she clearly felt a warm current flowing through her limbs and bones.

The next moment, she had a vague feeling that she was about to break through, but she always felt that something was missing. Just as she was distracted, Lu Ming suddenly leaned down and directly sealed her red lips with his.

"Um..."

Immediately afterwards, Mu Yunyan discovered that her true energy was uncontrollably circulating through her meridians, and Lu Ming was occasionally infusing her with spiritual energy.

When the spiritual energy circulates through her meridians, it brings an electric shock sensation, a sensation that gradually captivates Mu Yunyan.

After an unknown amount of time, a burst of spiritual energy erupted from Mu Yunyan's body, and Mu Yunyan officially stepped into the first level of Qi Refining.

Mu Yunyan's breakthrough was quite significant; the spiritual energy emanating from her body quickly swept across the entire Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion, and Chen Qingying, who was in the Hundred Flowers Courtyard, also sensed this spiritual energy.

Sitting in the pavilion, Chen Qingying frowned slightly. Had someone broken through to the next level? And judging from the pressure, the other party was likely to have broken through to the Celestial Realm?
Chen Qingying immediately thought of Mu Yunyan. On the day of Lu Ming's wedding, she had investigated Mu Yunyan's martial arts cultivation, and Mu Yunyan's martial arts cultivation was already quite similar to hers.

In other words, Mu Yunyan was not far from taking that step. She thought that if the Prince of Xiaoyao really had a way to help people take that step, he would definitely help Mu Yunyan take that step. So she didn't think about going to Lu Ming these past few days.

Now it seems that Lu Ming really does possess that ability.

Thinking of this, Chen Qingying's cold heart began to stir. If she could really exchange her innocence for the chance to embark on the path to immortality, she would naturally be willing.

It seems it's time for her to have a talk with the carefree prince.

Early the next morning.

When Mu Yunyan woke up, she was lying on Lu Ming's chest. As she felt her cultivation reach a new level and could directly sense the spiritual energy of the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion, she felt a strange, indescribable feeling. (End of Chapter)
