Chapter 360 Fragrant Honey 5
Jiang Xinxin was having a great time in Sihai, but Runyu was sad at the gate of Taihao Palace.
Because the owner of this huge palace complex was not at home, only the outermost basic protection was opened. Runyu had been so presumptuous to come here, and even with a visiting card signed by Emperor Taiwei, he could not enter the gate of Taihao Palace, which was named "Qingtian Gate" by Jiang Xinxin. He could only stand outside and endure the strong wind in the void.
Fortunately, the Emperor Taiwei didn't really want Runyu to die. After all, he had just found the fictitious eldest daughter of the God of Water as Runyu's fiancée to counter Xufeng who was supported by the bird clan. So when Runyu came out, Taiwei still gave him a protective magic weapon.
Runyu waited outside Qingtian Gate for three days, but no one came to pay attention to him. He could only go back to report, exhausted and haggard.
Taiwei knew that the Green Emperor was not easy to deal with, so he had no expectations for Runyu, and was ready to send him away for the sake of the Water God. But since the Queen of Heaven Tu Yao got her own son Xufeng, she wanted to fight for the position of the crown prince of the heaven for her son. Now that Runyu had finally made a mistake, she would not let it go so easily, and she had to punish Runyu with fifty thunder whips.
Runyu knelt there with a chill in his heart. Now that he had the cultivation level of an immortal, these fifty thunder whips would hit him hard, but they would injure his bones. However, he could not beg for mercy directly, because it would be useless to either Taiwei or Tu Yao. He could only kneel there in silence.
Taiwei also knew the consequences if Runyu was hit by fifty thunder whips. Even if he regarded Runyu as a tool to balance Xufeng, there was no reason to watch Runyu damage his foundation in vain. Besides, Tu Yao was cruel and ruthless, which was known to all the six realms. Taiwei had to save face, so he brought out the Water God and spared Runyu the fifty thunder whips, but made him kneel in the Fengxian Temple for three days before he let the matter go.
Although he was exempted from the punishment of fifty thunder whips, Runyu was not happy at all. Given Taiwei's attitude towards him on weekdays, his previous engagement with the eldest daughter of the God of Water, and Taiwei's exemption from punishment today, all these showed that he, the eldest prince of heaven, was just a tool to balance the forces of all parties in front of the Emperor of Heaven.
At this time, Runyu was not yet the Great Prince Yeshen, whose thoughts were relatively mature thousands of years later and whose cultivation had reached the level of a supreme god. He knelt in the Fengxian Temple, looking at the tablets of the gods, and felt desolate in his heart.
At this moment, he suddenly wanted to know who his biological mother was. Was it really as the people around the Queen Mother gossiped about, that she was a lowly maid in the Heavenly Palace who climbed into the bed of the Emperor of Heaven for power, and eventually became arrogant because of her favor and made enemies everywhere, so no one helped her when she gave birth, and she finally died of dystocia.
After kneeling in Fengxian Temple for three days, Runyu received elixirs and spiritual power from his younger brother Xufeng. Seeing Xufeng's face full of shame and even red ears, he knew that Xufeng knew about the Queen Mother's troubles for him again.
Runyu was also close to his younger brother Xufeng, and he immediately comforted him: "It is true that I failed to accomplish my mission this time. I couldn't even get into the gate of Taihao Palace. To put it seriously, I really fell from the prestige of the heavenly realm. To put it in a positive way, I am also guilty of failing to do my job well."
Xu Feng is close to his brother and also values his biological mother, so he has to be caught between two odds when encountering problems. It was only in recent years that he has found some way to strike a balance between his brother and his biological mother. So as soon as he came out of seclusion, he prepared elixirs and spiritual power and came to visit his brother who had suffered an unexpected disaster.
Xu Feng still felt ashamed after hearing Runyu's consolation, "It's all..."
"I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I just can't bear to see you delay your training because of these trivial matters."
Runyu didn't want to spoil Xufeng's mood, and didn't want the two brothers to only talk about these trivial matters, so he turned the conversation to Taihao Palace, "Let me tell you, Taihao Palace is really different from our Tiangong. Ours is mostly gold, silver and blue, only my uncle's marriage palace has more red, but it's just like that after a while."
“But the Taihao Palace is very different, with its colorful carved beams and painted buildings. Even though most of the palaces are lower than the Jiuxiaoyun Palace, the solemn and majestic aura is no less than that of the Jiuxiaoyun Palace!”
Xu Feng also calmed down and couldn't help joking with Run Yu: "Oh my god, to be praised by our great prince, I want to go and see Taihao Palace!"
Runyu frowned after hearing this. "Taihao Palace looks magnificent and solemn. There is the Qingtian Gate at the main gate, which is taller and more solemn than the Nantian Gate. There is a Haotian Treasure Mirror hanging in the center. I tried my best but couldn't get within three feet. I could only watch the strong wind blowing from the Qingtian Gate from afar."
Runyu originally wanted Xufeng to give up the idea of checking in private, but he didn't expect that Xufeng would become more interested in Taihao Palace. However, Xufeng could read his expression and saw that he didn't agree with him checking in private, so he comforted Runyu and said, "Brother, don't worry. Your mother must know that I came to your Xuanji Palace today. It's just to save you from being scolded. I won't be so inappropriate."
Runyu couldn't help but shook his head and laughed, "I would rather you gave up the idea temporarily because you were not well prepared."
Xu Feng also laughed and said, "So, I know how good my brother is."
After another half a month, Taiwei sent Runyu to check again, but Taihao Palace was still motionless and its owner had not returned yet.
There are few new things in the heaven. Taihao Palace and Qingdi were both bestowed by Heaven, so many people want to go and see them. However, Taihao Palace is far away from the Heavenly Palace, and there are strong strong winds in the middle that are difficult to resist. Without a fairy with upper-level cultivation, it is impossible to get through. That’s why Taihao Palace has some peace and quiet for a while. Otherwise, how could Taiwei tolerate a second person to claim the title of emperor in the heaven!
Qingdi herself was only focused on hatching the three dragon eggs she picked up. Although the fairy spirit in her space was very rich and very suitable for the growth needs of dragon eggs, this space had already recognized her as the master and spontaneously suppressed all creatures in the space, preventing them from giving birth to intelligence, which was very unfriendly to the dragon eggs.
Finally, the system came up with an idea. It asked Jiang Xinxin to pay close attention to the changes in the dragon eggs. As long as these three dragon eggs absorbed the immortal energy until they were about to hatch, and then the three dragon eggs were transferred out, there would be no need to worry about the dragon in the dragon eggs not being able to give birth to intelligence.
Therefore, Jiang Xinxin could only hide on the seabed and wait for the three dragon eggs to hatch.
Finally, when the three dragon eggs stopped absorbing the fairy spirit, Jiang Xinxin, at the reminder of the system, quickly transferred the three dragon eggs out of the space. However, she didn't expect that as soon as she came out with the dragon eggs, she was sucked into a dark hole in front of her. If the system hadn't reminded her that it was a great opportunity, she would have had to enter the space again.
