Overriding the Heaven

That was indeed what she had in mind.    

Fifteen years old, love of an opposite sex at first sight.    

However, this man already had someone more important in his heart.    

It was destined to be a one-sided love with no results.    

However, before he left, Yun Nichang hoped that he could still retain a bit of his memories.    

He wondered what kind of person he would turn into after a long immortal road.    

But this kind of confession by a young girl, Princess Ni Chang knew that she would not have the opportunity or the courage to do so in the future.    

The path of Immortality is long. I just want to leave behind a memory so that I can remember the year I was fifteen years old and fell in love with someone, and bravely told him about it.    

Princess Ni Chang laughed and tears suddenly flowed down her cheeks.    

Even so, her lips were curled up and her eyes were curved.    

Seeing the tears in Princess Ni Chang's eyes, Chu Yan's heart was moved.    

He could faintly sense that the Princess before him seemed to be concealing something.    

However, regarding this matter, Chu Yan also understood that since he did not plan to have any further development with the other party, then the best method would be to break things at the last minute.    

If the other party was given the illusion that they still had some hope, then who knew what would happen in the future.    

After a long while, Chu Yan exhaled, and softly said: "I'm sorry."    

"Yeah, I know." Princess Ni Chang nodded strongly.    

At this time, she bent her knees slightly, performing an extremely standard court lady salute towards Chu Yan.    

"I'm sorry, but I've troubled you tonight."    

Since the situation had developed to this point, it would be difficult for the two of them to have any further conversation between them.    

Chu Yan felt a little helpless.    

He could feel that there seemed to be something being carried on Yun Nichang's body.    

However, if he were to ask now, then the rejection from before would be a waste.    

At this moment, the silence behind the curtain was broken by a sudden clamor.    

Chu Yan and Yun Nichang looked at each other, then looked outside the curtain at the same time.    

Only now did they realize that just as they had been speaking, the Emperor had already announced that the Shattered Star Pavilion would take over from the Orthodoxy.    

Now was the time for all the sects and s in the territory to present their gifts.    

Aside from the Six Major Sects, there were thousands of other small sects in the Yunao Kingdom. Including the Immortal Cultivator Clans, there were also various independent cultivator organizations.    

And this was within the borders of the Realm itself.    

Yunao Kingdom still had more than ten subordinate state.    

Hearing till here, Chu Yan's heart couldn't help but move.    

"In that case, the Southern Yuan Kingdom is a subsidiary state of the Middle Tang." Chu Yan could not help but ponder in his heart.    

At this moment, the process of the congratulatory gifts ceremony continued.    

At this moment, the atmosphere of the banquet once again reached its climax.    

The reason was very simple. Compared to an immortal's ethereal state, mortals naturally valued all kinds of gold and silver as well as newly-discovered treasures.    

Chu Yan looked around through the curtain.    

He didn't know why, but the more passionate the atmosphere became, the more a strange thought popped into his mind.    

It was as if something was brewing.    

The faces of the Yunao Kingdom's emperor and empress flushed red, because a sect had just offered pills that could extend their lifespan by thirty years.    

The civil and military officials all congratulated the Emperor and Queen on their good fortune.    

This scene even made Princess Ni Chang forget about the sour scene from just now, as her eyes remained fixated on the lively scene.    

At this time, the uneasy feeling in Chu Yan's heart grew stronger.    

"What the hell is going on?" Chu Yan's breathing couldn't help but become hurried.    

He always believed in his intuition.    

Because Chu Yan was very clear that this intuition was not an illusion, but something that he had seen with his own eyes, heard with his ears, and then made a judgement in his brain. This judgment, was based on his experience and atmosphere, and it did not have a specific process of thinking.    

But due to the peaceful atmosphere at that time, Chu Yan couldn't find a reason to make himself feel uneasy.    

"Could it be that it's really because of the sudden appearance of Ji Kuang Shen that caused me to be suspicious?" Chu Yan frowned slightly.    

He looked around.    

Not to mention Ji Kuang Shen alone, even if a hundred or a thousand of Ji Kuang Gods were to rush out now, they would only be able to be instantly killed.    

Just as Chu Yan was thinking about this, a voice suddenly sounded out in his ears, "Zhongyun Immortal Family's Xu Ling Zhou Family, offer Heart Continuing Tea, Hundred Transformations Spirit Pill, and the Art Void Treading."    

The eunuch's voice trembled when he said, "Art, spirit, step on air."    

After so many years, the treasures he had brought along were pills and treasures, but the skills he had brought along with him were unprecedented.    

This was because a single art was the foundation of a sect and clan.    

What's more, the Zhou family used hollow spirits as their name. Then this hollow spirit step in the air must be the family's inherited technique.    

How could such a method be offered to others?    

This was just like the Shattered Star Pavilion. It was impossible for them to hand over their ancestors' inheritances to the Shattered Star Pavilion.    

And now, the Zhou family of hollow spirits had actually done so.    

In an instant, the gazes of the cultivators at the scene couldn't help but turn towards the line of people that walked over.    

On the other hand, the reaction of the Yunao Kingdom's emperor was different.    

When he heard the words "Void Spirit Zhou Family", his eyes lit up as he asked, "Is the Void Spirit Zhou Family the family where the two dynasties' Minister Zhou was when the late emperor was still alive?"    

Several members of the Zhou family walked over and knelt at a place about ten meters away from the emperor. "A descendant of the Zhou family with the hollow spirit. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Our ancestor is Zhou Bangwei!"    

Hearing this, the officials present burst into an uproar and could not help but whisper amongst themselves.    

"So it's Minister Zhou's descendant."    

"During the previous emperor's era, Minister Zhou was an elder of two dynasties. Later on, when he returned home, a cultivator came out of his clan and became a cultivator clan."    

"Now that you mention it, I remember that the word 'hollow spirit' was given to you by the late emperor. Including that technique, it seems that the late emperor, in order to express his gratitude to Minister Zhou, requested the sect to bestow it to the Zhou family."    

"The Zhou family came this time to return the magic technique to the imperial court?"    

Upon learning that it was a family established by a loyal subject during the previous emperor's era, the expressions of the officials at the scene immediately became much friendlier.    

The loyal subjects of the late emperor made some contributions, and the current emperor was very excited.    

To a certain extent, this was a form of affirmation towards his rule over the country.    

The civil and military officials were beginning to brew up at this moment, thinking about how they could sing praises later on.    

Just then, Chu Yan looked through the gap in the curtain and glanced at Jiang Panmeng.    

Jiang Panmeng was also looking at him.    

Both of them could see the shock in each other's eyes.    

In this instant, Chu Yan even felt a ghastly chill run down his spine. It felt as if electricity were crackling and popping up his spine, causing his scalp to go numb.
