Towards the palace.
At the end of the dark and confusing corridor, in a spacious side hall, black muslin curtains were like mist, overlapping and folded in the bone hook.
Behind a dozen layers of muslin curtains, on top of three layers of Imperial Jade, there was a large black throne.
The throne was engraved with a hundred ghosts in the night. On both sides of the armrests, about five feet above the ground, there were two balls of white bone fire. They were cold and silent. As they jumped, they added to the chill in the hall.
Li lieyue was wearing the crown of the Holy maiden, her black dress was like the night, and her skin was as fair as snow. She sat high on the throne and was resting with her eyes closed.
On both sides of the throne, dozens of ghost maids stood with their hands crossed. Their long robes fluttered on the ground, their brows lowered and their postures respectful.
At this moment, there was no one under the Imperial carriage.
After a while, the sound of footsteps came from outside the side hall. Soon, two ghost maids pushed open the door silently and led a person in.
Zheng Jingshan had specially changed into a new robe and tidied up his appearance so that he was in high spirits. At this moment, he suppressed his excitement and walked into the hall in an extremely respectful and attentive manner.
He only glanced at the Imperial Jade, and when his eyes touched the Holy maiden’s crown, the excitement in his eyes became even more intense. He hurriedly went forward and knelt down respectfully, ” &Quot; congratulations, Senior Sister! You’ve become the saintess! &Quot;
&Quot; Senior Sister, you’re talented and majestic. You’re the Holy Virgin of our Sage sect. It’s a matter of course! &Quot;
&Quot; there are countless geniuses in the sage sect, but none of them can compare to Senior Sister! &Quot;
“Senior Sister, you are the future of our glory sect!”
Even though he was trying to fawn on him, Zheng Jingshan truly felt that way.
Before he went to mine, every time he met Senior Sister li, he could feel that the gap between them was like the difference between heaven and earth. This was a feeling that no other core formation realm cultivator could give him.
At this moment, Senior Sister Li’s aura was as deep as the ocean, unfathomable.
Although she was only sitting at the head of the table and did not deliberately release her aura, the power of the Holy maiden still made him feel a sense of oppression that made it difficult to breathe.
Zheng Jingshan was shocked. He thought of his old nemesis, Miao Chengyang, and could not help but sneer in his heart.
What was the use of being more talented and stronger than himself?
If one didn’t stand on the opposite side, no matter how high one’s cultivation was, it would be in vain!
Right now, even the other party’s backer, true inheritor Zhou, was unable to protect himself ...
Thinking back to the time when he had been beaten black and blue by Miao Chengyang, Zheng Jingshan could not help but feel as if fate had made a fool of him.
However, it was a good thing that he had returned at this time.
Looking at the time, Senior Sister li should have already finished a series of chores for her first Ascension to the position of saintess. Next, she would probably make her move on Zhou zhenchuan very soon!
As for him, Zheng Jingshan, as Senior Sister Li’s most trusted subordinate, he would definitely be entrusted with an important task!
At that time, all of Zhou zhenchuan’s hard-earned collections, resources, and even his personal maids ... He would be the one to take them all ...
Just as Zheng Jingshan was secretly overjoyed, li lieyue asked indifferently,”What’s the matter?”
“Senior apprentice-sister, when I heard your orders, I set off overnight to the yin Lu mountain range to prevent any mishaps.”
&Quot; after they arrived, they took the lead and dug in the mines day and night.
“The yin Lu mountain range’s mineral resources are barren and the ore yield is extremely low.”
“In order to achieve Senior sister’s needs as soon as possible, I’ve fought day and night in the well without fear of difficulties and dangers.”
“Even if I have to face danger several times, I won’t hesitate!”
“After all, it’s fine if I’m injured, but I can’t delay Senior sister’s matters!”
“Fortunately, I didn’t fail my mission. After these days of hard work, I finally excavated 23895 Jin of kun scale ore ...”
“Today, I can finally witness Senior sister’s might. I hereby present it.”
As he spoke, Zheng Jingshan took out his storage bag and raised it over his head, intending to give it to Senior Sister li.
However, li lieyue, who was on the armor, didn’t say anything. He didn’t have any intention of accepting the ore.
Seeing this, Zheng Jingshan looked embarrassed. After hesitating for a while, he put down the storage bag and said,”Speaking of which, it is all thanks to Senior sister’s teachings. After I went to the yin Lu mountain range, although I worked day and night, my cultivation was not delayed.”
&Quot; now, I’ve already broken through to the late-stage of the foundation establishment stage. In the future, I’ll definitely be able to share more of Senior sister’s and the Li clan’s burdens ... &Quot;
It would have been fine if he hadn’t mentioned this, but once he did, it was no different from reminding li lieyue of the time when the two of them had gone to Luquan City.
Zheng Jingshan was in the middle stage of the foundation building realm, while PEI Ling was only at the second level of the Qi refining stage.
Now, PEI Ling had already achieved a level one pill refinement, while Zheng Jingshan had only just broken through to the late-stage Foundation establishment realm!
He was really a good-for-nothing!
As a result, li lieyue’s expression turned cold and he immediately shouted, ” “If you have one more word of nonsense, then get lost!”
Seeing senior Li’s unhappy expression, Zheng Jingshan’s pressure increased. He quickly said,”Senior Sister li, it’s like this!”
“When I was following Senior sister’s orders to mine in the Yinlu mountain range, PEI Ling, that brat, first faked Senior sister’s orders and ordered me to mine in the Bo Luo mountain range.”
“This move is simply disregarding Senior sister’s dignity and acting on her own initiative! It’s really hateful!”
“Then, I began to wonder why this kid dared to be so arrogant and despotic. So, I’ve been asking around about him in private, and I’ve found out that he’s been oppressing the Jian sang branch these days!”
&Quot; they even went to Jin Sutai, but the other party avoided them and used seclusion as an excuse to avoid the battle! &Quot;
&Quot; his actions showed that he didn’t care about the interests of the jiansang branch. &Quot;
&Quot; and as everyone knows, the Jian sang branch has always supported Senior Sister. &Quot;
&Quot; he’s obviously not giving a damn about Senior sister’s dignity by doing this! &Quot;
&Quot; if I hadn’t returned to the sect in a hurry not long ago, I’m afraid that the people of the current jiasang lineage would have already scattered and become a pile of loose sand, Senior Sister! &Quot;
&Quot; to sum it up, PEI Ling has a honey-mouthed mouth but a sword in his heart. He is clever with his words but he is irresponsible. He is not worthy of being the branch head of the jiansang branch! &Quot;
“Senior apprentice-sister, please be wise and dismiss him from his position as branch head. I will return to the mountain and take charge of the jiansang branch.”
“When the time comes, I’ll definitely be able to make the Jian sang branch thrive and improve even further, and spread the name of Senior Sister ...”
As he listened, li lieyue’s face gradually turned cold.
However, Zheng Jingshan did not notice this at all. He was still making all sorts of promises with confidence and anticipation.
At this moment, li lieyue suddenly sensed that someone had entered chao NA’s Palace, and it was a very familiar aura ...
Thus, she was not in a hurry to deal with the waste below. With a wave of her wide sleeves, her figure instantly disappeared.
Zheng Jingshan was stunned when he saw Senior Sister li leaving. He did not know what was going on.
However, Senior Sister li did not let him leave. With so many spectral soul maidservants staring at him, he did not dare to leave just like that.
He could only kneel on the ground and continue to think about how to take back the position of branch head ...
