Daqing: Immortality begins with taking Fan Xian as your disciple!

Then what he was planning would no longer be a problem!

……

Imperial Palace of Qing Kingdom, Imperial Study.

Emperor Qing stood upright with a straight posture.

He held a finely crafted longbow in his hand.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze as sharp as a hawk's.

It kept its eyes firmly fixed on the target not far ahead.

Emperor Qing exuded confidence, as if he had everything under control.

Then, with a 'whoosh' sound.

The arrow flew out and landed firmly in the bullseye.

However, the emperor's face showed no joy, and he seemed rather dissatisfied.

The eunuchs kept their heads down, not daring to speculate on the emperor's thoughts.

Before long, Eunuch Hou came to report.

"Your Majesty, Commander Yan has returned and is requesting an audience outside the palace."

Emperor Qing waved his hand and uttered only one word.

"Xuan."

Then, Yan Xiaoyi slowly walked in.

His head drooped, and he looked somewhat shaken.

Emperor Qing frowned slightly, as if he had a bad feeling.

Upon seeing the emperor, Yan Xiaoyi knelt down respectfully and solemnly reported.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened at Cangshan."

"..."

"Grandmaster Ye was severely injured by Su Yu."

"If Fei Jie hadn't been there, I'm afraid... the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Hearing Yan Xiaoyi's report, which was far beyond his expectations, he was surprised.

Emperor Qing's previously calm and composed face became extremely solemn.

He put down the longbow in his hand.

He turned around and looked at Yan Xiaoyi with a cold gaze.

It seems that they are not very willing to believe what the person in front of them is saying.

Emperor Qing simply looked at Yan Xiaoyi silently, without saying a word.

Yan Xiaoyi was unsure whether to continue the report, and did not look up.

Silence fell over the imperial study.

But even though Emperor Qing didn't say anything.

Yan Xiaoyi could sense an extremely sharp killing intent emanating from his body.

This caused the temperature in the entire Imperial Study to plummet!

If Yan Xiaoyi were to look up at this moment, he would find...

The emperor, who was usually unsmiling, now looked extremely grim!

This is because, in Emperor Qing's expectations, or rather, in his hopes.

Su Yu should only be a peak ninth-rank expert.

He originally sent Ye Liuyun to Cangshan as a test.

Secondly, it serves as a lesson to Su Yu for her arrogant behavior in the palace last time.

Of course, Emperor Qing had considered that Su Yu might have already reached the Grandmaster realm.

So not only was Ye Liuyun sent, but Yan Xiaoyi was also sent with the Imperial Guards.

The purpose was to wait until the two grandmasters were both severely injured.

Have Yan Xiaoyi kill Su Yu.

As for the other possibility, he carefully considered and ruled it out.

Even if Su Yu were a Grandmaster, he could never defeat Ye Liuyun.

After all, Ye Liuyun is a martial arts prodigy who appears only once in a century, and he has already been a grandmaster for several years.

But unexpectedly, it was precisely the possibility he overturned that turned out to be correct!

Moreover, Su Yu defeated and severely injured Ye Liuyun with overwhelming strength!

Emperor Qing closed his eyes, rubbing his furrowed brow, feeling extremely troubled.

Su Yu possesses such formidable strength, which is definitely not what he wanted to see!

Emperor Qing's face contorted with rage, and he crushed the teacup in his hand to pieces.

He absolutely would not allow such a strong person to live in this world!

However, thinking about this matter, Emperor Qing frowned even more deeply.

He sighed heavily countless times without realizing it.

An existence capable of overwhelming a Grandmaster is not someone he can simply eliminate at will.

Emperor Qing's gaze was icy as he swept his eyes over Yan Xiaoyi, who was kneeling.

“… Continue.”

Since we have no ideas, let's listen to some more.

Let's see if we can find a weakness in their match.

Even the slightest, insignificant injury Su Yu sustained at this moment could be a breakthrough point.

Yan Xiaoyi nodded, and then continued to recount what he had seen in Cangshan and what Su Yu had said.

He blurted everything out at once.

"With a single sword stroke, the mountain was cleaved, and the lake water was diverted to flood the hills..."

"The art of immortality..."

"Soaring through the air, manipulating water and fire, lightning and golden light..."

"A realm of supernatural powers, possessing boundless magical energy..."

"Reborn from a drop of blood, capable of changing at will, creating from nothing, and immortal..."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing's usually calm face revealed extreme shock.

Even the anger and murderous intent from just now had vanished.

Everything was replaced by shock.

Emperor Qing's expression became extremely agitated. (The last part, "三九硫祀驷澪," appears to be a fragment and doesn't translate directly. It's left as is.)

These were things he had never heard of before.

If these things are true, then even a temple might not seem like much!

Reborn from a drop of blood, capable of changing at will, and immortal!

Immortality!

Emperor Qing's eyes were filled with greed and desire.

If only he could obtain this immortality technique!

How could it be Su Yu? How come Su Yu is the one who knows all this?

"If I had known, I shouldn't have done this!"

Countless thoughts surged into Emperor Qing's mind.

If only I had known, Su Yu would have been the top scorer in the college entrance examination.

Even if he doesn't want to serve as an official in the court, you should ask him what he wants to do.

The Imperial Preceptor, the Grand Preceptor—he can do whatever he wants.

As long as it's not the throne, I'll agree to anything he says.

If he could win him over, he would have a chance to learn about the art of immortality.

Alas, I shouldn't have allowed the Empress Dowager to make things difficult for Su Yu.

If it weren't for that incident at Hanguang Hall (where Li Hao was acquired), Su Yu might already be teaching in the palace right now.

That was a mistake, a wrong move!

But more importantly, they shouldn't have sent Ye Liuyun to test Su Yu.

This test has now made the world aware of the secret to immortality.

How could such a secret technique be known to ordinary people?

They should all be in our own hands!

Ugh!

Emperor Qing was extremely depressed and sighed repeatedly.

He himself did not realize that this was since he became emperor.

This is the first time I've ever lost my composure like this.

But how could he not be excited?

Immortality means transcending the shackles of birth and death.
