There are always fairies plotting against me

The Eastern royal family is huge in number, but most of them are mediocre and useless, but Prince Ji Dongfang Zeyang is not one of them.

But now, not long after he left Shengjing, the news of Prince Ji's death came within a few days.

Emperor Jianing couldn't help but clench his hands, because Prince Ji's death was not unprecedented.

He still couldn't figure out who was behind this.

Recalling the strange deaths of other princes before, Emperor Jianing had a flash of suspicion in his heart. Logically speaking, Dongfang Xingsong was his biological daughter, but in the end, it was Prince Ji Dongfang Zeyang who died.

Is "raising without giving birth" worse than "giving birth without raising"?

Emperor Jianing frowned slightly, feeling increasingly irritated.

The God of War they believe in, fighting against two other dynasties, and dealing with the outside world—

In addition, the truth behind the deaths of several princes has not yet been uncovered internally. Who else is involved in this game?

When he opened his eyes, a gloomy look flashed in his eyes, and he felt more and more exhausted.

Emperor Jianing looked at his companion who was bending over with his hands hanging down and looking submissive not far away. His expression showed no sadness or joy, but he laughed at himself in his heart.

"Chess piece—haha."

"How much longer?"

"Your Majesty, it will be soon."

Just as the eunuch Otomo finished speaking, the imperial carriage stopped.

"By order of the Great Infinite Buddha, we are here to respectfully welcome the Great Emperor of the East."

The voice rang out from the sky, and Emperor Jianing stepped out of the palace. He flicked his sleeves and looked at the hundreds of figures shrouded in Buddha's light in the air.

He also knew the leading Buddha, who was the seventh Buddha ranked on Mount Sumeru, the Treasure Fire Buddha, who was the Buddha who traveled from Mount Lingshan to Mount Sumeru.

Emperor Jianing did not bow, but simply asked calmly, "Where is the flying boat?"

The Treasure Fire Buddha, with his right hand on the ground and his left in the Dhyana mudra, looked down at Emperor Jianing with a smile on his face. Behind him, a Buddha from Lingshan waved his hand, and a magnificent golden flying boat stretched across the sky.

Shadows covered Emperor Jianing's procession. Emperor Jianing looked expressionlessly at the golden steps extending down from the flying boat, and stepped up without saying a word.

Otomo followed closely beside Emperor Jianing, while the other people from the Eastern Dynasty skillfully turned back and headed inside the pass.

Baohuo Buddha withdrew his gaze and turned to look at the gradually dissipating storm, rainstorm, lightning and thunder.

A strange look flashed in his eyes. After fifteen years, another person became an immortal. Just like in the past, it would definitely cause a reshuffle of the forces among various parties to a certain extent.

I just don’t know who will become an immortal this time.

The calamity was so overwhelming that it was hard to tell from which direction it came.

Baohuo Buddha withdrew his gaze and thought to himself that as long as he was not a cultivator from the Wandao Sect, it would be fine. Otherwise, who could keep an eye on that old man Zheng Dongliu?

Looking back at Emperor Jianing who had stepped onto the deck of the flying boat, Baohuo Buddha spoke loudly: "Mount Xumi welcomes the Great Emperor of the East. Rise up!"

The flying boat gradually gained speed. Emperor Jianing stood steadily on the deck of the flying boat, looking at the golden Buddha light all over the sky. He flicked his sleeves and walked into the cabin.

Inside Hanshan Temple.

Lu Jinan raised his hand to drive away the young monk who opened the door, and led Dongfang Xinglan into the library in a dignified manner. After closing the door with his backhand, before he could say anything, Dongfang Xinglan had already walked towards the books neatly arranged on the bookshelf.

Lu Jinan smiled and said deliberately: "Don't think that I arranged this on purpose."

"Although I was a little bit stupid in front of you before, but--" She reached out and took a book from the bookshelf: "It doesn't mean that I'm not smart, understand?"

"I understand." Lu Jinan stopped talking and walked towards the bookshelf on the other side.

Although there are books on human culture and geography in the library of Hanshan Temple, there are more Buddhist scriptures.

Lu Jinan casually took out a Buddhist scripture and flipped through a few pages. It was not much different from the Buddhist scriptures circulating on the market.

Losing interest, he asked, "Now can you tell me what the breathing method you learned is called?"

"Ten-Direction Breathing Method—I'll read the book first."

"Okay." Lu Jinan walked out of the library: "I'll arrange for Uncle Bai to look after you."

After saying that, he contacted Bai Shu'e to come and protect Dongfang Xinglan, and then returned to the flying boat.

When I returned to my master's bedroom, Pei Suoyu was already sitting in front of the dressing table combing her long hair.

Lu Jinan closed the door and walked over, then naturally took the comb from her hand and helped her to trim her hair.

"You didn't tell me before, but now I can guess it." Pei Wanyu looked at herself and her disciple in the mirror:

2

You used to comb your sister's hair a lot when you were little, right?"

Lu Jinan hummed, "Not only did I comb her hair, I also washed her clothes and folded her quilts—"

His voice paused, and he continued helplessly: "I have to warm her bed every day."

"Is she treating you as a 'maid'?" Pei Wanyu raised her eyebrows.

"No." Lu Jinan shook his head: "The clothes washed for her are all underwear, and the quilts folded must be the ones she has just covered herself with..."

She has to let me accompany her when she takes a bath, and when she's not taking a bath, she has to wash her feet, and she likes to bury me in her arms..."

As he spoke, Lu Jinan's expression gradually became complicated. It seemed that his sexual quirks were really cultivated by his sister.

No, she has been cultivating her brother since he started thinking for himself???

It's simply—

Lu Jinan took a deep breath and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about her for now. Master, you can get out of bed so soon?

"Master recovers quickly." Pei Wanyu snorted.

"That's true." Lu Jinan flattered, "Nanzhi and Senior Sister are not as good as you in this regard."

Pei Suoyu put her right leg on her left leg, a smile flashed in her eyes. Nanzhi was definitely not as good as herself in recovery, but the same could not be said for Qingyue.

Qingyue is so good at disguising herself.

As she thought about it, she suddenly raised her head and said to Lu Jinan excitedly, "I have a new idea."

Lu Jinan was stunned for a moment: "Just like the conversation just now to divert attention?"

Pei Wanyu blushed: "Did you figure it out?"

Lu Jinan smiled but said nothing. Pei Wanyu rolled her eyes at him and continued, "Maybe it will work this time."

Lu Jinan suppressed the words "You are really a novice and love to play" and asked patiently, "What method?"

Pei Wanyu's eyes flickered, and she said a little embarrassedly, "Just like the first time you did to Qingyue."

Lu Jinan couldn't help but look down at the plump, full-moon, pear-shaped curves beneath his master's long skirt. He couldn't help but laugh, "Master, you really like to have wild ideas."

Pei Wanyu glared at him: "How do you know if you don't try? This is different—"

"Well—next time." Lu Jinan quickly changed the subject: "Have you heard of the Ten Directions Breathing Technique?"

Hearing this, the smile on Pei Wanyu's face gradually faded: "Is this what the girl is learning?"

"Yeah." Seeing his master's serious expression, Lu Jinan recounted in detail what happened after he met Dongfang Xinglan.

"Si Tian Jian—-----so this is the bloodline talent of the Eastern Royal Family." Pei Wanyu's eyes turned cold: "Those people in the upper realm actually tested it out."

Lu Jinan seemed to be thinking: "Is it related to the half-demon and the Sky Emperor?"

Pei Suoyu glanced at Lu Jinan approvingly: "You are right, but this breathing method is different from the half-demon bloodline."

Lu Jinan asked curiously, "What's the difference?"

"That child believes in the Emperor. In the terminology of the Tianji Pavilion, the snake is one of the Eight Qimen Gods. Although it is not as powerful as the dragon clan, it can also create clouds and mist.

Pei Suoyu said slowly: "As the saying goes, it takes a thousand years for a snake to become a dragon, and after leaping through the Dragon Gate, it can become a dragon, and after overcoming the heavenly tribulation, it can fly straight into the vast wilderness, comparable to the Ancestral Dragon.

But the snake clan has been suppressed by the dragon clan and has no chance of rising up——"

She paused, realizing that her obedient disciples understood what she was saying, so she went straight to the point: "The Ten Directions Breathing Method absorbs the power of nature to strengthen the Qi and blood of the five internal organs, using Qi and blood to strengthen the body, leading to a higher realm of physical training.

Although humans are known as the most intelligent creatures, their innate affinity for spiritual energy is not as strong as that of demons, so simple breathing techniques have their limits."

"This breathing method doesn't have any staying power, right?" Lu Jinan said, "Otherwise, it would have been promoted long ago."

"Yes." Pei Suoyu nodded. "Simple breathing techniques have their limits, but using the power of monster blood to condense a demon pill can potentially increase the absorption of natural forces by the five internal organs."

Lu Jinan nodded, just like his previous body refining pills contained the ingredient dragon marrow.

The qi and blood of powerful monsters are indeed of great benefit to human cultivation.

"Snakes are rare monsters that can control multiple attributes, so the Emperor's demon pill is compatible with the Ten Directions Breathing Method, but that alone is not enough." Lu Jinan looked at his master curiously: "Otherwise, with the Nine Stars in the Dao Palace being extremely difficult, the human race would have already used this method to replace the previous body refining.

However, this was the first time Tuji had heard of the Ten Directions Breathing Method, a physical training method that could be cultivated to a level comparable to five Dao Palaces."

What Lu Jinan found most strange was this: if simply swallowing the blood and qi pills of monsters could improve breathing techniques, why wouldn't humans use it?

This is just like "eating it can beautify the body and strengthen the yang", and it will definitely be sought after by the human race.

However, the method of using breathing techniques combined with demon pills to improve physical fitness has not spread among cultivators.

Even if today's cultivators are unwilling to go through the trouble of body training, why don't the older generation of body cultivators or those survivors who insist on body training use this method?

"So, Master just said that the experiment in the upper realm has produced some results." Pei Wanyu looked at her shrunken long hair, stood up and walked around while talking: "Back then, when the Nine Stars of the Dao Palace had problems, the human race also tried other body refining methods, but they didn't test out any useful results.

Now it seems that the upper realm has come up with some results first."

Pei Wanyu leaned against the wall with her arms folded across her chest, and continued thoughtfully, "But how exactly to make the Ten Directions Breathing Method harmonize with the demon elixir, so as to unleash a power no less powerful than that of the Dao Palace Nine Stars—that's unknown."

Lu Jinan asked, "Is the Ten Directions Breathing Technique from the upper realm?"

"It was taken away by the upper realm."

Lu Jinan looked at Pei Suoyu thoughtfully. Is the master from the upper realm royal court of the demon clan?

He seems to know a lot about the upper world.

Sect Leader Zheng and Master reached a cooperation at the beginning, so Master became the deputy sect leader of Wandao Sect?

Lu Jinan thought about it and said, "We must go to the Eastern Dynasty.

It's a pity that the direct push method can't be used, otherwise you, Master, could overthrow the three great dynasties by yourself."

Pei Wanyu smiled and said, "That's the same as what I said."

"Which one?"

"Those who are stronger than me are seniors, those who are about the same are fellow Taoists, those who are weaker than me but have backgrounds or can be used are junior friends, and the rest are ants."

Pei Suoyu stretched out her hands: "Fang Dao Sect is not afraid of the other four sects and seven academies or other forces, but Fang Dao Sect and the upper realm are on a relatively equal footing."

Lu Jinan nodded to show that he understood. Most of the big guys in the world of immortal cultivation were like this. Unless those with similar strength were sure that they could kill the other party, they would use other means to compete.

Wandao Sect and the upper realm are now in such a situation.

"Now that you've brought out Dongfang Xinglan, the commander of the Jinyiwei of the Dongfang Dynasty, it's indeed a good entry point."

Pei Suoyu looked at Lu Jinan and said, "If the Eastern Dynasty is really the testing ground of the upper realm, then under the premise that the cultivators from the upper realm cannot come down in person, I will leave this matter to you."

"As for the situation inside the Linyuan Sword Sect or the Donglu Confucian Academy..."

Pei Suoyu pointed at Lu Jinan and said, "Leave this to us. Once you've overcome the tribulation, you can go to the Eastern Dynasty with peace of mind."

"Disciple understands."

Pei Wanyu nodded. Even the strongest person in the Eastern Dynasty could not reach the level of the "Emperor of the Sky", which meant that there was most likely no immortal who could "become an immortal in the flesh".

Wait until my good disciple breaks through the tribulation before going. Even if I can't achieve any results, I will be able to escape safely.

"Dongfang Xinglan may not have come into contact with that contract." Lu Jinan placed the comb back on the dressing table. "Otherwise, he should have heard of sects other than Linyuan Sword Sect and Donglu Confucian Academy."

"Overall, this is not a big deal, so don't worry about it."

Lu Jinan hummed, then asked, "How much do you think the Sect Master knows about this matter?"

Pei Suoyu smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter how much he knows. He also has plans in the upper realm. He has never been one to defend or counterattack."

Lu Jinan suddenly realized something, and then he saw his master stand up, open his arms, and said with a smile: "Come, help me change my clothes~"

"undress?"

Pei Wanyu glared at him and said, "How old are you and you can't hear clearly?"

Lu Jinan smiled and said as he walked, "Tu Jidi, if you want to change clothes, don't you have to take off your clothes first?"

"You're just a talker—" Pei Wanyu felt the tingling sensation of her obedient disciple's fingertips brushing against her skin and changed the subject, "Xumi Mountain also invited Qingmiao Palace."
