My Journey to Immortality
Ch 11 - Guests at the Palace.

Two weeks after Xiao Suja or the one now using the name Xi Suja opened up all the secrets she had kept for the past 10 years about who she really was, yesterday they had agreed to leave for the Han imperial palace on this day after the previous two days he had already been able to re-access everything in the space of his dime freely and without restrictions with words another dimension of his space was already his completely back.

By day they were ready, his mother, his aunt, his uncle, his cousin, his sister, and Luyi's grandfather was already waiting for him in front of the courtyard while he himself was inside his dimension room to pick up some Katana firearms and swords that he would use as self-defense.

"So we're leaving now?" Just as he came out of the dimensional space Luye asked to be sure.

"Yes uncle, I'm ready. Let's go".

They immediately darted using the knowledge of body lightening except for Xi Suja and Xi Lu Yue who were still not cultivators, Suja was carried by Luyi's grandfather while Lu Yue was carried by her father. 

They darted from tree to tree and sometimes stopped to get rid of some demonic beasts that blocked their path, they did not bring any items as all of their items had been put into the storage ring which was a mid-tier mortal Spirit Tool capable of storing many items with a capacity of as much as 500m2 or the equivalent of two twenty houses were lined up neatly while Suja kept a SS-2 V4HB assault rifle and two G-2 Combat pistols as his weapons and several times he removed some of their obstructions in the middle of the road whether it is a demonic beast or a group of robbers and forest bandits considering the area where they live in the forest is quite famous haunted and feared.

Actually, it was not only them who left for the imperial capital but together with some other villagers, all the villagers who had originally secluded themselves because they were already unable to raise the cultivation level of either the foundation realm whether it was mortal realm or earth realm, the cultivator core formation, were already unable to raise the level of cultivation, nor the Nascent Soul Cultivator who came from the three different streams.

All of the men declared their allegiance after Suja promised to give them and their families a better life, making all the small villagers swear their allegiance, about 10 Nascent Soul first-stage and mid-stage cultivators and five core formation cultivators escorted them on the way while the other 50 people and their families had set out first to search as much as possible rogue Cultivator at Suja's request will be used as a guard and secret force that will guard his family and also the Association he will build later.

After passing two days of tense journey for two boys even though one of them is quite confusing because during the trip always smiling happy that looks terriblensaay finish off the robbers with his strange weapon, his, finally their entourage arrived in front of the enormous and majestic Chang An city gate.

A few spear warriors with strength equivalent to a core formation cultivator inspected every single person who was about to enter the city and took an entrance fee of two pieces of silver, he said, with its gate guards alone possessing the equivalent strength of the core formation signifying the security of the city was completely enhanced after the assault of the black-flow alliance some time ago.

As soon as they enter the city, they, Suja looked at the surroundings with a look of admiration because it was only the first time for her to see the crowd and the majestic city of Chang An which became the imperial capital as well as Lu Yue who had never been brought to the city since birth the capital made him enthusiastic and pulled Suja's arm around the capital.

"Gee! Yueyue wants that!".

Looking at the apple sweets that Lu Yue wanted made Suja also want to taste them, along with Luye they bought some apple sweet stitches while the other party was waiting for them at the place before.

"Young master and little lady, do you want this apple sweet?".

With the eyes of the dragon god that he had made Suja able to see the problem that the apple sweet seller's grandfather was facing, after receiving ten skewers of sweets Suja gave a piece of gold to pay.

The sweet-seller's grandfather trembled to receive the golden piece that the little boy had given him in front of him, anxiously staring at the boy before thrusting back the gold piece he had received earlier.

"Young master, this little one apologizes. This little one has no change for the sweets that the young master took, these gold pieces are too much for the servant".

Suja smiled softly "It's okay cake, the money is for the cost of grandfather's ailing grandson so take it".

The seller's grandfather bowed several times while thanking him, after which he tidied up his wares while the remaining sweets were distributed to some of the less able children who were around him.

"Son, isn't that too much?" Luye was curious about what his wife's niece was doing and was a little regretful of what the boy was doing because the ten apple sweets were only 1 bronze of her piercing while the boy gave her a piece of silver to pay for the sweets he took.

"It's okay uncle, his grandson is sick while they don't have the money to pay the healer. Giving a little help will not make us lack, it will make us become richer and appreciated people. Oh yes also invite all beggars and abandoned children in this city, they will all become employees of the Association later after they are given education of course".

Without caring about what Luye was thinking, Suja divided the apple sweets she bought with Lu Yue and enjoyed them happily. 

Luye was confused and did not understand but worked on Suja's request as well, more than a hundred beggars and abandoned children were gathered by him and taken to a temporary singgaj house that had been prepared by some Suja subordinates who came from the small village where they were hiding.

After being satisfied to explore the market and try many snacks, they finally went back on their way, this time only Suja and the others were heading to the palace while the subordinates were heading towards their halfway house to rest and wait for the next order.

Upon arriving in front of the palace gates some soldiers blocked them as they were about to enter, Tang Nie and Tang Yue showed their identification plaque as the main family members of the Tang clan and the Xiao clan as well as the members of the imperial family.

The soldiers' faces were pale as if they saw the placards that the two women showed "Please enter madam, forgive us for interrupting your journey!".

"It's okay, continue your work!".

Inside the main surroundings of the imperial palace looked very busy with the many servants and eunuchs passing by, the sight made Suja and Lu Yue curious while the parents just looked at her as if it was the usual thing they saw even though that was the reality.

Inside the imperial workspace the emperor han was currently examining several documents upon hearing the eunuch's exclamation of his confidence from outside.

"Madam Tang Nie and her family and Madam Tang Yue along with young master Xiao have arrived!".

The emperor immediately got up and stepped quickly to open the door of his study, outside he saw two of his aunts who were quite missed by the mother of the queen mother and two young children and two men who were with them.

Other than Suja who only lowered her head slightly, the others bowed in paying their respects to the Emperor. Suja's actions made several guards and two eunuchs look at her angrily and wanted to slash her head, before they took out the Emperor's weapon first giving a sign to them.

"Greetings aunt Nie, aunt Yue, and welcome to the imperial palace. Both aunts do not need to pay their respects because I am how niece is aunt both, if mother knows maybe I will be given punishment. Are auntie both okay?".

Amidst the three people conversing as well as introducing Tang Nie's husband and in-laws, Suja barged into Xiao Chen's study room followed by Lu Yue who had been so enthusiastic since entering the palace.

The actions of the two of them made the guards return angrily as they felt they were not paying homage and giving face to the emperor, but the emperor himself was quite astonished by their bravery even though he also showed admiration for the bravery of the boy who did not greet him well even ignoring the guards who were staring at them angrily.

"Auntie, are they my sisters?" Xiao Chen asked a little curiously with a serious face shown by the boy as he stared and read a leather scroll on his desk.

"True Chen'er, the sister of Nie'jie and the boy of my son. We'd better get in, it looks like Xi'er has some opinions that can help you".

Emperor Xiao Chen frowned softly "Xi'er? Isn't it Xiao's surname? Why is Xi an aunt?".

Tang Yue smiled softly "She changed her surname, she also planned to ask permission for some things from you. Now it's better let's go in and listen to what he has to say, maybe it can help your problem".

"Where did you know I got in trouble?".

Tang Yue laughed softly "Chen'er, aunt has been taking care of you since childhood. What does your aunt know about you? Even your delinquents were still aunty remembered, but it seems like you have changed since ascending the throne".

Emperor Xiao Chen smiled shyly "Please forget that aunt, let's go in first. Let the waiter bring us a drink later, mother would also be happy to hear you guys are fine especially if you know aunt Nie also came home to bring her a new niece".

While Suja was seriously researching some of the scrolls she read, some of them were routine reports given by ministers but she found some problems that seemed quite heavy.

"Didi, did you find anything?".

Suja flinched softly, it seemed like she was too serious so did not realize the emperor was already sitting down and paying attention to her.

"Gee! Hmm, hehehe sorry I don't know the name gege".

Xiao Chen chuckled, "Name gege Xiao Chen, remember that lest you forget".

"Well gege, now let's discuss all the problems that gege faces".
