He inexplicably thought of the bolt from the blue he had heard before, the winter thunder, and the strange phenomenon when Song Feiqiong broke through to the Grandmaster realm.
"This is...?"
Cheng Tianfeng and Li Hongzhao were both astonished.
Xiao Ruoling also looked at Chu Zhiyuan in surprise and whispered, "Could it be that another Grandmaster has emerged?"
"Another Grandmaster has indeed emerged."
"Another Grandmaster has emerged!" Li Hongzhao looked at Chu Zhiyuan hesitantly, "Has a Grandmaster really emerged?"
Chu Zhiyuan's mood was heavy, but he revealed a smile, "It can be said to be a double blessing, today is a good day for my Great Jing!"
*..*
Li Hongzhao could no longer maintain his composure, and his face was immediately covered with a layer of frost.
Cheng Tianfeng also looked complicated, opened his mouth, and smiled bitterly, "It really is a double blessing, congratulations, Brother Chu."
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Congratulations, congratulations, it's just that Ninth Prince can't be happy, otherwise, would Your Highness like another cup?"
He picked up his wine glass.
Li Hongzhao glared at him fiercely, and stood up and left.
Before leaving, he cupped his fist at Xiao Ruoling: "Sister Xiao, feel free to find me to play when you have time, he is him, you are you."
Xiao Ruoling agreed with a smile.
At that time, Li Hongzhao should have already left Yujing, or he himself would have left Yujing.
After Li Hongzhao left, Cheng Tianfeng's interest also disappeared, and he smiled reluctantly: "I wonder which sect has produced a Grandmaster, could it be the royal family?"
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "No matter who it is, it is a good thing for our Great Jing and Great Zhen, at least we have more confidence against the Great Meng."
"That's right." Cheng Tianfeng nodded.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Brother Cheng, let's finalize the negotiation as soon as possible."
"...Okay!" Cheng Tianfeng nodded slowly, gritting his teeth and said, "Brother Chu, don't you really want to come to my Shenjing for a visit?"
"Even if I go to Shenjing, it won't be in this form," Chu Zhiyuan said.
"Forget it, I'll go back and explain to them," Cheng Tianfeng said in a deep voice.
The situation has suddenly changed, and we can no longer act according to the original plan.
There is no point in continuing to stalemate on this matter, from the moment King Ying recovered Fuyuan Town, Great Jing's attitude could no longer soften, it would only become more and more tough.
Cheng Tianfeng had no intention of staying any longer, cupped his fist and left.
Xiao Ruoling looked at Chu Zhiyuan and said softly, "Are you thinking about Li Hongzhao's words? Are you worried that you won't become a Grandmaster?"
Chu Zhiyuan sighed and said, "Ruoling, what I'm worried about is this Grandmaster..."
"Which Grandmaster is this?" Xiao Ruoling asked curiously.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled bitterly: "It's likely to be Second Uncle."
"...King Jing?" Xiao Ruoling was stunned: "Wasn't the Second Prince placed under house arrest?"
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
"Could it be that his cultivation wasn't sealed?"
"It should have been sealed."
"Then..."
"Therefore, things in the world are unpredictable and there is no certainty... Moreover, forget it, there are too many ears outside, let's talk about it when we get back to the mansion."
The matter of the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect is extremely secretive and should never be spoken out.
Especially now that the Second Prince has entered the Grandmaster realm, things have become even more complicated.
After Chu Zhiyuan sent Xiao Ruoling back to the Anguo Duke's Mansion, when he returned to the Qing Prince's Mansion for lunch, he used his super-sensory perception to observe the Jing Prince's Mansion.
A huge golden roulette was slowly rotating in the void, a hundred meters above the Jing Prince's Mansion.
The golden wheel was ten zhang in diameter, with faint golden light, engraved with dense and strange patterns, and there were vaguely small grids.
This should be the Grandmaster's Visualization Realm.
It's not the Rising Sun Realm!
Just as Chu Zhiyuan, Chu Yi, and Chu Minghou sat down, Bai Ningshuang hurried back.
Chu Zhiyuan saw that her face was solemn.
Chu Yi asked: "Mother, what's wrong?"
"Did you hear the thunder?"
"Yes, it was very strange, thunder in broad daylight."
"A Grandmaster has emerged!"
"Grandmaster? That's a good thing, why does Mother look so worried?"
"Your Second Uncle has become a Grandmaster."
"...Second Uncle?" Chu Yi looked at Chu Minghou.
Chu Minghou stood up suddenly: "Second Brother has become a Grandmaster?!"
Bai Ningshuang said: "The palace is full of congratulations for Consort Rui... Heh, it really is impressive!"
"Second Brother has become a Grandmaster." Chu Minghou had a smile on his face.
Once you enter the Grandmaster realm, you can no longer be placed under house arrest, you should be restored to freedom, and you have finally made it through! This is finally freedom earned through his own ability.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Mother, what did Grandmother say?"
"The Empress Dowager doesn't seem very happy."
"Is Grandmother jealous of Consort Rui?" Chu Yi smiled and said, "I really envy her, we are counting on Big Brother!"
Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "It's better to count on yourself!"
Chu Minghou's eyebrows danced with joy: "Second Brother is finally going to see the light!"
He looked at Chu Zhiyuan with a smile: "Right, Yuan'er?"
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not a good thing."
"No matter what, he is still the Emperor's son, the prince of our Great Jing, it can only be beneficial to our Great Jing, right?" Second Brother is a prince of Great Jing, how could it be detrimental to Great Jing?
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and did not refute Chu Minghou.
His father is too sentimental, and his temperament is gentle, he won't think of people in a bad way, he only thinks of their good points.
"Big Brother, how is it not a good thing?"
"These matters involve secrets, you must not tell outsiders, and you cannot tell Miss Suyue."
"Okay, okay, Big Brother, tell us quickly."
Chu Zhiyuan then told them about the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect.
If he didn't explain clearly, he was worried that Bai Ningshuang and Chu Yi wouldn't know the depth of it and would rashly interfere, bringing trouble upon themselves.
Bai Ningshuang and Chu Yi were dumbfounded.
"This is indeed a bit troublesome." Bai Ningshuang's face was tense: "In the past, we could still keep an eye on him, but now it's impossible to put him under house arrest, so what should we do?"
Chu Yi asked: "Even if we send two more Grandmasters, can't we guard him?"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Grandmasters are already stretched thin, it's difficult to send two to guard him, moreover, two may not be able to guard him."
Chu Yi said: "Let the Grandmasters of the Grandmaster's Mansion act together, subdue him, seal his acupoints or abolish his cultivation."
"Yi'er!" Chu Minghou glared at her in dissatisfaction.
Chu Yi smiled playfully: "Father, isn't this because there's no other way? If Second Uncle really becomes the leader of the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect, what will happen to Imperial Grandfather?"
Chu Zhiyuan had already said that according to the rules of the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect, the Spirit Son can directly take over the position of Sect Leader after becoming a Grandmaster.
"Oh... if he really likes it, then let him be the Sect Leader." Chu Minghou said.
It's nothing to be the leader of the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect.
He is a prince of Great Jing, and it may be a good thing for him to be in charge of the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect, it can be considered a great help to the imperial court.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "It still depends on Imperial Grandfather's intentions, Father, you must not interfere in this matter, don't say a word."
"...Alright." Chu Minghou said helplessly.
He knew that he was indeed not good at handling these mundane affairs, Bai Ningshuang handled them before Chu Zhiyuan grew up, and after Chu Zhiyuan grew up, they were handed over to Chu Zhiyuan.
Chu Zhiyuan turned to Bai Ningshuang.
Although his father is soft-hearted and emotional, his greatest advantage is that he listens to advice and will not act arbitrarily and stubbornly.
Knowing that he is not good at these things, he doesn't mess around and focuses on the art of painting and calligraphy, living a carefree life.
Bai Ningshuang said: "I won't talk nonsense either."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded and looked in the direction of the palace.
Should he continue to be a prince, or go and be the leader of the Everlasting Spirit Divine Sect?
This is not only a choice that the Second Prince has to make, but also a choice that the Emperor has to make.
Chu Zhiyuan's face suddenly changed, and he took a step and stood up.
Bai Ningshuang and Chu Yi felt inexplicable.
Chu Zhiyuan flashed, stepped to the entrance of the front hall, lifted the curtain and went out, stood on the steps, cupped his fist towards the sky, and said in a deep voice: "Second Uncle, welcome! I apologize for not greeting you sooner!"
