Cultivation Goddess
Chapters 323. Concubine Ning

Emperor Ning who took the form of a dragon circled around inside the secret room while continuing to laugh. Some furniture was touched by its tail and fell to the floor. Some flammable objects also begin to emit smoke.

Not wanting his collection to be damaged, Emperor Ning changed his form back into an ordinary human. His clothes that had been charred burned made his body plain without a single thread remaining.

"I feel like I'm getting young again. My skin became smooth and tight, my bones also felt strong." Emperor Ning observed the changes to his body.

There was no mirror in the room so he could not see the change in his face. After feeling satisfied with his admiration for himself, Emperor Ning immediately put on the oversized clothes he had stored inside his storage ring.

The hot air inside the room had not completely disappeared. After returning to the human form, Emperor Ning could feel how big the energy trail he had left behind was when he was a Fire Dragon.

Emperor Ning looked impatient to share the happiness he felt with his family. Without a second thought he immediately left the room and went to his palace. Her steps were so light with a smile that kept on expanding on her lips.

Outside the room were seen several bodyguards and palace servants working. They saw Emperor Ning come out of the secret room. If they do not wear the usual clothes, they may think he is an intruder.

The guards and servants were stunned to see the change in Emperor Ning's appearance. Some of them were dumbfounded to forget to salute when Emperor Ning flashed before him.

Emperor Ning did not bother about it because he was happy. Along the way, it continues to be colored with the same events. All eyes seemed to want to keep looking at him because of his good looks.

Right now Emperor Ning looked like a young man who was only twenty-five years old. It might even look younger than that.

Empress Ning was embroidering the cloth on the porch when Emperor Ning arrived at the palace courtyard. For a while she had not noticed Emperor Ning's change in body until the husband walked up to her and stood beside her in a very close distance.

"Ehem!" Emperor Ning cleared his throat for Empress Ning to notice him.

Empress Ning looked up to see who had come. For a few seconds he had not realized that the man standing next to him was Emperor Ning. He turned his face away and thought that the man was someone else.

"Would a wife ignore her husband? It is impolite, "the Emperor Ning said.

Empress Ning gasped at Emperor Ning's words. His eyes are perfectly rounded. This voice was well known to him but not to his face and appearance.

"Your Majesty!" his screeches.

His body rose slowly then stood before Emperor Ning. Still with the same feeling, this reality was not acceptable to him yet. The deceptive sight forced him to recall the sketches of faces in the past.

"Yes, it's me. Who do you think you are?" Emperor Ning proudly opened his hands to show his body.

"What happened, Your Majesty? Did you eat something wrong?" Empress Ning looked panicked. He thought that the change that had happened to Emperor Ning was not a good thing.

Emperor Ning was irritated by Empress Ning's attitude. Without saying much more he lifted his body and brought it into his palace. Empress Ning's cloth and embroidery tools slipped out of her grasp and fell scattered on the floor.

At the palace banquet, the,

The palace higher-ups stared in amazement at Emperor Ning's youthful appearance change. They did not dare to offend him with the question of why such a change could take place. Even his two sons were speechless when he saw his father's new face for the first time.

Emperor Ning looked so arrogant and said that his current strength had increased by leaps and bounds.

The Imperial Council could clearly see the aura of energy enveloping Emperor Ning. His pupils sometimes turned a reddish-yellow like a burning fire. They were very familiar with this aura.

"Your Majesty, is this the Fire Dragon spirit stored in the spell prison?" asked one of the palace dignitaries who was considered an elder.

"I want to prove that I can control it. The previous emperor was so afraid to absorb this spirit power because it was consumed by an absurd understanding." Emperor Ning snorted arrogantly.

The people around him looked at him in amazement. They had not expected that Emperor Ning would still be able to survive after absorbing such a terrifying legendary Fire Dragon spirit. For several generations of the empire that led, only he dared to fuse his body with those high-level spirit beasts.

With the companion spirit within his body, Emperor Ning became more confident. This dinner became the embodiment of his love for the achievements he had.

The entire state and the alliance of cultivators bowed obediently to him. They considered Emperor Ning worthy to be their leader, in other words they would fight anyone who wanted to rebel and overthrow his throne. During this time Emperor Ning indulged them with luxury and all forms of worldly pleasures.

As well as tonight, everyone present at the banquet received a special gift of one golden tail. A cunning way that Emperor Ning had always done to keep his supporters loyal to him. Some time ago he again found a gold mining location in the South Mainland region so that it makes it more royal to his followers.

Ning Mu Shen and Ning Yao Xi looked envious of the father. They were not willing to see the father look younger. He would look like a big brother if he was in the middle of them.

"Shen'er, I'm upset to see your good looks. Look at those girls! They pay more attention to Dad than we do. It really can't be allowed to," Ning Yao Xi murmured.

"Then what do you want, Brother Xi? There's no way we're fighting with our own father. Dad will never marry again. He had sworn to mother," comfort Ning Mu Shen.

"I think so too. Although he was a little arrogant and cunning, but he was a loyal person." Ning Yao Xi finally did not want to blame her father anymore.

The two continued talking until they were unaware of Emperor Ning's presence behind them. Luckily, he heard only the last sentence.

"What are you guys talking about? Since then you've been avoiding me, aren't you happy if I turn out to be handsome?"

Ning Mu Shen and Ning Yao Xi almost fainted from shock. They looked very tense and wished that his father had not heard what they were talking about.

"No, Dad, it's not that. We were waiting for some leisure time, I saw that Dad was so busy with the palace officials." Ning Yao Xi reasoned.

The next day, the,

Emperor Ning went to the hill behind the palace with his two sons. They will be training there today. In addition to showing his dragon form, Emperor Ning also wanted to train Ning Mu Shen and Ning Yao Xi to form a three-star formation.

Eve in that place was cold because it was in the height. The steep and pointed rocks above ground level make them have to be careful when practicing.

After pulling back the envoy and cancelling Fang Yin's pursuit, they had to train hard to deal with the divination that allowed it to become real.

Emperor Ning taught some secret techniques to his sons. They look serious in this exercise to forget a lot of the time they went through. Almost a day they practiced and only returned when the sun was almost drowning.

***

Concubine Ning went down the mountain and intended to return to the palace. After a long time he will go to see his uncle. The news of the prophecy made him so uneasy. However, before going to the palace he wanted to go to Silver Mountain to meet Consort Shi.

The relationship between the two can not be said to be good, but he wants to apologize to his love rival for the chaos that occurred. After stepping aside from the luxury of the palace, his heart was more open and aware of his mistake. In reality what it was like after this, he resigned if Consort Shi killed him in return for the crimes he had committed.

The state of the Empire of the Eastern Continent fell apart in Emperor Ning's leadership. At first he thought that he only wanted to get rid of Consort Shi and his daughter. It had never been in his mind about the destruction of the Gu Dynasty.

Concubine Ning sat dumbstruck on her horse when she reached the foot of the Silver Mountain. The day began to darken and darken with a mist of mantra shrouding the region.

"Ice tribes protect this region very well. Even if I try, it seems like it will be difficult to penetrate this protector." Concubine Ning kept thinking of finding a way to get into the Silver Mountain.

In the distance, there was a sound of footsteps of horses. Concubine Ning smiled wryly and felt there was a glimmer of hope to meet Consort Shi.

"May those people be residents of Silver Mountain or Consort Shi himself." Concubine Ning looked impatient.

Several times he took his horse to walk slowly and circled in his place. The place he was standing at was currently the only path leading to the Silver Mountain region.

Guan Xing who led the glacier tribe was astonished when he saw a woman standing alone at the border of Silver Mountain. This path was so rarely passed that he thought that the woman was a lost person.

Concubine Ning jumped down then saluted Guan Xing and the entourage.

"Good evening, sir. Sorry if my presence interfered with your trip."

Guan Xing replied to Consort Ning's respect. He felt that he did not know Consort Ning who he had just met for the first time. Judging from his appearance, he was very simple and elegant.

"You're too polite, miss. What are you doing here. This place is a very dangerous place for people who are unfamiliar with the terrain" explained Guan Xing.

"Sorry, Sir. I did deliberately come to this place to meet my old friend, Shi Yu Jie." Concubine Ning hoped the man before her was giving her a way.

"It just so happens that we're heading to Silver Mountain, come with us." Guan Xing did not want to hold his entourage for too long. Without a second thought he brought Concubine Ning into his entourage.

They continued their journey to the Silver Mountain. Concubine Ning's eyes were spoiled by the natural beauty around her. The territory's protective spell opened as the blood of the descendants of the ice tribe carried it as well as passing through the invisible gate.

The day grew darker and completely dark as they reached the resident settlement. Lanterns lit up along the street gave light. The party stopped in front of Consort Shi's family home to escort Consort Ning.

Without the slightest suspicion, Guan Xing brought Concubine Ning walking over to the door of Shi Jun Hui's house.

"In the meantime I will call the owner of this house," said Guan Xing asking Consort Ning to wait.

Guan Xing raised his hand to knock on the door. However, his hand came to a halt when the door was already open before he managed to touch it.

"Hey, bad boy! What are you doing here? Enter ... lah ..," Shi Jun Hui's remark paused upon seeing someone he knew very well standing beside Guan Xing.

Guan Xing looked puzzled as he looked at Shi Jun Hui's suddenly changed expression. He then followed his gaze which stared intently at Consort Ning. Until now he had not realized if the man in front of him did not like the woman he brought.

"Oh, yes, I'm sorry I forgot to tell you who this Miss is. She ...."

Shi Jun Hui raised his hand as a gesture for him to shut up.

Guan Xing's face became tense upon seeing the look of hatred in Shi Jun Hui's eyes. His look looked very scary.

"What are you doing here? Are you tired of living? You're like a rabbit that goes into sometimes a lion." Shi Jun Hui spoke softly and with great emphasis.

The usual style of speech is echoed by someone who is holding back anger.

Currently Shi Jun Hui's heart was extremely turbulent. His status as a father and grandfather forced him to vent anger and resentment towards Consort Ning. A sword appeared in his hand.

"I beg you not to misunderstand, Mr. Shi. My arrival here is not to bring hostility. Please listen to me, Mr. Shi," please Consort Ning.

Shi Jun Hui did not want to listen to Concubine Ning's words. For him he was the mastermind of all the bad things that befell his son and grandson. Until this second, her daughter and granddaughter had no face before the entire people of the Eastern Continent Empire.

Every single step forward Shi Jun Hui, Consort Ning took one step back. The thousands of words he had stacked on his head became extremely messy out of fear of what he felt. His lips kept moving but not a word was said of him.

"Why does your face look so panicked? Show me your real face that is so happy when you see my daughter's life ruined and despicable. I won't let you live this time if your arrival isn't to restore Yu Jie's good name!" shouted Shi Jun Hui who could not say softly anymore.

Guan Xing and everyone standing at the place tried to understand their chatter. They showed a tense face.

The group of glacier tribes whispered to each other making the atmosphere become rowdy. Their voices rang out into Shi Jun Hui's house and made the occupants go outside to see what was happening.
