Dethroned from the Imperial Throne, Why Are You So Anxious When I Don't Want It Anymore? - Chapter 158
Chapter 158: Little Yu, Is That You?
“Your Highness, what is it? ” Behind Zhou Li, an old voice sounded.
With each step, boundless pressure emanated, clearly a Void Refinement Initial Stage Great Power.
Since the last incident involving Zhou Li in the Triangle Region, the Great Zhou Emperor assigned this Void Refinement Stage Imperial Consecrate to Zhou Li as a Protector.
Zhou Li looked at the old man in front of him, a smile curving his lips as he said, “Nothing, Elder. Let’s go. ”
The Elder looked at Zhou Li. This Fourth Prince had originally looked forward to the arranged marriage, but now he seemed very resistant. The Elder didn’t know what had happened.
The so-called arranged marriage wasn’t an immediate wedding, but a betrothal first.
The reason for having Zhou Li come personally was twofold: to avoid gossip, and to allow Zhou Li to personally inspect the goods – to see if the two Princesses met the requirements. If they met the requirements, he would bring them back for marriage.
On the other hand, Ye Yu and several people were also on their way to Great Yan.
Along the way, Qin Ruoxian kept trying to delay. Ye Yu knew what Qin Ruoxian was thinking, and didn’t say much.
The two had always been together infrequently, and Ye Yu also wanted to take this opportunity to spend more time with Qin Ruoxian.
Late at night, Ye Yu pulled Qin Ruoxian to sit on a hillside, watching the Star Sea in the sky.
Since his rebirth, Ye Yu hadn’t enjoyed such a leisurely time in a long while. His eyes unconsciously closed as he enjoyed the feeling of the night wind on his face.
Liu Qi, in the distance, looked at Ye Yu’s current state and smiled. Since knowing Ye Yu, this was the first time he had sensed Ye Yu letting down his guard.
Qin Ruoxian also smiled sweetly, leaning against Ye Yu’s embrace, gazing at the Great Yan Imperial City, which was not far away. After pondering for a long time, she said, “I know you have no greed for power, and I know you don’t care, but if you don’t contend, others will force you to contend. It’s better to take the initiative than to be passive. ”
Hearing this, Ye Yu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Qin Ruoxian with a complex expression.
Qin Ruoxian was right; in both his past and present lives, Ye Yu had no obsession with the so-called power.
Ye Yu also understood that what Qin Ruoxian was talking about now was not Great Yan, but Great Qin.
“To accomplish your goals, you can’t do it alone. You need your own forces. Do what you need to do. I don’t want to be an obstacle to you. Don’t harm them. The Qin Empire wants to advance further; it can’t rely on them,” Qin Ruoxian looked at Ye Yu and spoke again.
Ye Yu was silent, then hugged Qin Ruoxian tightly. When he looked up again, his eyes were firmer than ever before.
Early the next morning, Ye Yu and several people set off again, but this time, Ye Yu and Liu Qi left first.
Qin Ruoxian understood Ye Yu’s meaning and slowed her pace.
The Great Yan Imperial City no longer possessed its former prosperity. Although the Imperial City was still decorated for a celebration, Ye Yu could see that it was merely a facade.
Ye Yu and Liu Qi restrained their auras and entered the Great Yan Imperial Palace as if they were invisible.
With their abilities, in the current Great Yan, as long as they didn’t want to be discovered, no one could detect their whereabouts.
Entering the palace, Ye Yu went straight to a palace in the Inner Palace.
This was the place where Ye Yu had lived; he only moved to the East Palace after Ye Zhentian pushed him to the position of Crown Prince.
Standing before this palace again, Ye Yu felt a sense of timelessness. Liu Qi, beside him, remained silent, watching his surroundings vigilantly.
After a long time, Ye Yu sighed, pushed open the dust-covered palace doors and entered. He then calmed his mind, and his Earth Realm Soul Power spread out, searching for the missing fragment of his soul.
If it was indeed his mother who did this, then the place of his birth would be the most likely place to find clues.
At the same time, in the Palace, Ye Qingwan had changed into a gorgeous outfit, but her expression was somewhat desolate, her eyes filled with confusion. She couldn’t avoid becoming a tool for an arranged marriage.
At this thought, Ye Qingwan sighed softly and looked at Ye Qingxuan beside her. Ye Qingxuan had also changed her clothes, but she still looked silly.
“You’re lucky. Being crazy like this, you don’t have to worry about anything,” Ye Qingwan patted Ye Qingxuan’s head, a wry smile on her face.
But at that moment, Ye Qingxuan suddenly stood up.
Ye Qingwan was startled, looking at Ye Qingxuan whose face had suddenly become excited, she nervously said, “Second Sister, what’s wrong? Don’t scare me. ”
“It’s Little Yu, Little Yu is back, Little Yu is back! ” Ye Qingxuan suddenly shouted excitedly, then ran out without looking back.
Seeing this, several guards guarding the area were about to stop her.
But Ye Qingxuan was still in her reckless state.
Seeing this, the faces of those guards darkened, and spiritual energy churned around them as they prepared to use force.
Seeing this, Ye Qingwan’s face turned pale, and she hurriedly tried to shout to stop them, but it was too late.
Two beams of Spiritual Light suddenly erupted, heading towards Ye Qingxuan from the left and right.
Ye Qingwan closed her eyes in fear. These two guards were both at the Nascent Soul Initial Stage of cultivation; Ye Fan had deliberately summoned them for fear of their escape.
But the next moment, Ye Qingxuan’s eyes turned cold, and an invisible force erupted from her body.
“Get lost! ” With Ye Qingxuan’s cold voice, the two Nascent Soul Initial Stage guards were forcefully knocked away, disappearing into the night.
If Ye Yu were here, he would have found that Ye Qingxuan had just used Soul Power, and it was at the Earth Realm.
Ye Qingwan stared blankly at this scene, then came to her senses and hurriedly tried to follow Ye Qingxuan, but the next moment she was thrown back by a burst of spiritual energy.
Then, a familiar figure appeared in front of her, “Elder Sister, what’s wrong? What happened? ”
Seeing Ye Xuan in front of her, Ye Qingwan felt wild joy. Sure enough, Ye Xuan hadn’t abandoned her; he had still come when she was about to be married off as a tool for an arranged marriage!
With Ye Xuan’s current status, as long as he was willing to help her, she would absolutely not have to marry into Great Zhou.
“Little Xuan, Little Xuan, you’re finally back. Help your sister, I don’t want to marry Zhou Li! ” Ye Qingwan quickly said.
On the other side, Ye Yu, standing inside the palace, slowly opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.
He had searched the surroundings with his Soul Power for a whole day but hadn’t found any trace. This was abnormal!
It was too clean, as clean as if someone had deliberately cleaned it up!
“Little Yu, Little Yu, is that you? Are you back? ” Suddenly, Ye Qingxuan’s shout came from outside the palace.
