Chapter 5266: Power is greater than heaven

"That's right." Seeing Ye Wudao speak out his thoughts, Ji Youlan said slowly: "But these are not important. I found clues about your wife. She... is called Xu Ling'er, right?"

Ye Wudao's expression tightened, and he said excitedly: "How is she?!"

Ji Youlan smiled and said: "The good news is that she is doing well. The bad news is that she is not in Dragon Island, but far away from Dragon Island. There is an infinite ocean outside Dragon Island. The ocean currents are full of giant monsters and ancient beasts, etc. It is difficult to pass."

"Could the teleportation array also..." Ye Wudao felt a little cold in his heart.

"The teleportation array is useless." Ji Youlan said: "The teleportation array also needs a certain power as a medium, and this medium does not exist in the vast sea outside Dragon Island."

"Only one in ten people sent out survived. In order to find information about your wife, I lost a lot of people, including hundreds of high-level cultivators. I always keep your matter in mind and don't perfunctory you."

Hearing this, Ye Wudao was grateful and bowed with a fist: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

"You're welcome. After all, you are my confidant minister." Ji Youlan said: "Your wife is in a large sect that specializes in waterways. It is said that she has an extraordinary status. That sect is full of women, so you don't have to worry."

Ye Wudao asked: "What realm do you need to be able to cross that ocean safely? Can you become a celestial immortal?"

In fact, Ye Wudao didn't know whether he could cultivate to the point of becoming a celestial immortal. This is not a problem of resources, but requires a bit of luck and a deep foundation.

After practicing Taoism for so many years, Ye Wudao has made great achievements, but compared with those old guys who have practiced for thousands of years, he is still inferior.

The higher the level of cultivation, the older he is!

Ye Wudao is afraid that when he reaches the peak of cultivation and can meet Xu Linger, he will be old and twilight.

"Even becoming a celestial being... won't work." Ji Youlan shook her head.

"Then... what should I do?"

"One is luck, and the other is to ask a stronger person with a higher realm to help you cross over." Ji Youlan said: "For the latter, my Ji family has a way to help you. If you also want to leave Dragon Island on the day when your father leaves, I can help you ask."

"If it really doesn't work, my Ji family still has a few great people who have hidden themselves from the world. When I become the Queen of God, I can also let them help you. There is always a way, you don't have to worry."

However, the premise for the implementation of these methods is... Ji Youlan succeeds in the battle for the throne!

Ye Wudao nodded: "Then I will assist Your Highness wholeheartedly and help Your Highness ascend the throne."

"That's great."

Ji Youlan smiled like a flower.

"By the way, Your Highness, is there any big event in the court recently?" Ye Wudao looked puzzled.

Since he came back, he has also inquired about a lot of news, but he doesn't know what big event it is. However, from Ji Youlan's slightly solemn expression, he can also see some clues.

"It's like this. Some chambers of commerce in other states and the governors appointed there secretly rebelled. This matter is very secretive because it is a matter for the imperial guards to investigate. Father also summoned me and my elder brother and second sister to discuss this matter."

"Since there is an incident in one state, the other states also need to be taken seriously. I am still wondering why the appointment of Liu Weiwu to take charge of Beizhou was so smooth. It turned out that it was the governors of these states that made father worried."

Hearing this, Ye Wudao thought for a while and suddenly laughed: "The status of those governors cannot be easily shaken. If it is shaken, it will hurt the foundation of Shenxia."

This matter is actually no different from the rebellion of the vassal kings. The governors of those states are actually vassal kings. To be precise, the governors are not governors, but the deputy governors are, because Shenxia rotates some governors every year.

However, the medicine is the same as the soup. Those governors can't suppress the local snakes, that is, they can't suppress the local deputy governors. If it comes to power, some deputy governors have more power than governors.
