Chapter 241 Returning a Favor
Su Changge glanced sideways: "Duke Zhenyuan?"
Minister Li laughed and said, "Brother Changge, you have defeated the alien Northern Dark Insects. You should have been promoted and ennobled long ago. His Majesty would have already made you the Duke of Zhenyuan."
"I never imagined that you would become the Prince of Zhenyuan as soon as you emerged from seclusion!"
In the past, Su Changge would have been quite excited.
But once one reaches the realm of sainthood, fame and fortune become secondary.
What Su Changge cares about most is the safety of her family.
As long as Su Yun is safe, he'd be willing to be demoted to the rank of Earl of Zhenyuan!
If his family members were in danger, he could not accept it even if he became the emperor emeritus!
Emperor Qian sighed slightly: "There was a deep misunderstanding, but thankfully it's not irreparable."
"Lord Zhenyuan, please state your request."
A Saint Realm expert is enough to earn the emperor's respect and be treated as an equal.
With three Saint Realm experts in this family, Emperor Qian should adopt a humble attitude and handle the relationship properly.
"Hmph!" On the lotus in the sky, Feng Xuan Yi's eyes gleamed. "Sage of the Su family, don't believe that dog emperor's words!"
"He can harm your family once, and he can do it again!"
"They only tried to make amends afterward because they saw how powerful you were. There's no such thing as a free lunch!"
"Should we kill this tyrant?"
When he saw Su Yun emerge, bringing with him an unusual shift in the nation's fortunes, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement.
As expected of the Holy Maiden, who praised her and hoped to win over this outstanding talent, she is indeed quite different.
If you can be accepted as a disciple, you will surely receive a great deal of good fortune from it in the future.
Perhaps he will be able to take that final step, ascend to the top and become the emperor, and become the ruler of this era!
Thinking of this, Feng Xuanyi couldn't help but speak.
As long as the Empress Dowager of Qian Kingdom harmed Su Yun, the conflict between the two sides will remain irreconcilable!
Emperor Qian's face darkened, and he turned to say, "Minister Su, don't listen to his nonsense."
"This is all my fault..."
Snapped!
The Empress Dowager stepped forward and said sternly, "This matter is my fault!"
"Whether it's the Duke of Zhenyuan, the head of the Su family, or even a sage."
"This matter arose because of me. If you wish to take revenge..."
"Kill me then!"
Emperor Qian opened his mouth wide: "Empress Dowager..."
The Empress Dowager had made up her mind. She raised her palm, gathering spiritual power: "If you don't make a move, I will do it myself!"
Su Changge clenched her fists as she watched this scene.
The Empress Dowager's actions against someone else's offspring truly make her an enemy.
No father could tolerate it and was willing to let it go.
Seeing that her son was alive and well, Su Changge's anger subsided by half.
I met another mother who was willing to sacrifice her life for her family and for the foundation of the nation.
Su Changge's feelings became complicated.
But he took a deep breath, his eyes sharp: "I will definitely seek justice for Yun'er in this matter!"
Feng Xuanyi was delighted: "Great!"
Once the Empress Dowager dies, there is no chance of things turning around!
Emperor Qian's heart tightened. His gaze swept to the edge of the room, and he blurted out, "Why don't we ask Xiao Suyun and see what he thinks!"
Feng Xuanyi frowned, but quickly relaxed.
Emperor Qian was unwilling to give up either side, and had exhausted all his options, clinging to his last straw.
But to expect a child who has been hurt to not hold a grudge...
Feng Xuanyi scoffed: "A fool's dream!"
Emperor Qian took two steps in three and leaped to Su Yun's side, intending to pick him up.
tide Yaoyue remained reserved, making no move, but simply turned her body slightly to block the view.
Mo Ling didn't care about anything else. She hated these people for attacking a little child while her family was away.
Now, he directly picked up Su Yun and complained to Emperor Qian, "Get away from me! You're trying to harm my brother again!"
Emperor Qian smiled bitterly: "I did not, and I would not do such a thing!"
"Little Su Yun, tell me quickly. Whatever you want, I'll apologize to you personally, okay?"
Su Changge said sternly, "Yun'er, if you harbor hatred in your heart, your father will seek justice for you!"
Daqian treated him well, but this was based on the premise that he would not harm his family.
If you truly harbor malicious intentions, you might as well leave this place!
Su Yun, who had just been undergoing a physical examination, was stunned upon hearing this: "Seeking justice?"
"No! No, please don't seek justice!"
"I'm only even with the Empress Dowager now!"
Su Changge was taken aback: "Even? What do you mean, even?"
Su Yun pointed in the direction of home: "I...I took responsibility for my eldest sister and took the soul of that princess."
"If the Empress Dowager harbors resentment and wants revenge, then let her take it."
"One person, one turn each, that evens out!"
With the Emperor Qian present, there was no need to hide this matter.
Anyway, the eldest sister only has a living soul, and she is very powerful.
Even if someone wanted to harm her, they couldn't.
The three members of the Su family were completely unaware of this matter.
tide Yaoyue, who was closest to the scene, was too busy refining the Imperial Lotus Seed to notice what was happening outside.
tide Yaoyue asked in confusion, "Big sister? You Li?"
"She has cultivation?"
Su Yun pinched her thumb and forefinger together: "A little bit."
Mo Ling blinked, then belatedly realized, "So you did it on purpose?"
"You deliberately took the risk?"
Su Yun let out a soft "uh," received a sharp rap on the head, and quickly said, "Just for a little while..."
It's just that I've been on the path of seeking answers for a while now, and I haven't even seen my family along the way, so how could I have imagined that they would sense it?
Su Changge was stunned for a moment before she realized, "We're even?"
Su Yun nodded repeatedly: "Yes, one for each of us, that evens things out."
"And just now, it seems that the Empress Dowager also used some kind of national fortune to save me."
"Didn't you return it?"
Master Hongjue concealed the path of self-examination, yet it was still permeated by the vast destiny of the nation.
The national destiny found Su Yun, and fearing that he had been harmed by asking about his spiritual path, it infused him with a large amount of spiritual power, cleansing his entire body.
Su Yun's meridians were clear, but he didn't mind taking a spiritual energy bath.
And because he wrote "The Immortal Record of the Dragon's Nest", a massive amount of national fortune was accumulated within the Path of Inquiry.
Because the Empress Dowager was searching, a portion of the nation's fortunes were reciprocated.
When the Path of Inquiry reopened, it immediately provided feedback to her.
Emperor Qian turned around abruptly, surprised, and asked, "Mother! Your health... is alright?"
He had clearly seen that the Empress Dowager had used the nation's fortune by burning her life force in a sacrifice, resulting in a massive depletion of her body and a shortened lifespan.
Just now, the nation's fortune surged and swept over everyone, so I didn't notice whether it affected the Empress Dowager.
Upon closer inspection, Emperor Qian realized something was amiss.
The Empress Dowager's body seemed to have undergone a complete cleansing and rejuvenation process; her aged and withered meridians became crystal clear and pure again!
The internal organs, nourished by the nation's fortunes, exude a vitality beyond their years.
Although she still looks old, you can see that her complexion is gradually becoming rosy, as if her youth has returned.
As the ruler of the Great Qian Dynasty, Emperor Qian was well aware of the extent to which the fate of the nation could be influenced.
While the royal family can certainly wield this power, its immense size also means that their lifespan is far shorter than that of others.
If the nation's fortunes could be extended and its people long-lived, the ruler would have lived to a ripe old age long ago.
But now, there is a national destiny that we cannot control or influence.
Because it is too large and too refined.
It truly nourished the Empress Dowager, making up for the lifespan she had previously lost twice over.
Emperor Qian was shocked: "Returning a favor? His heart is so magnanimous."
"What happened that allowed the Empress Dowager to regain her lifespan, and to cultivate such a pure national destiny!"
