#206 - Jade Rakshasa gave birth to a son, Qin Qixin
Luo Xiangfei, the woman Emperor Lie Huan loved most, ascended to the position of Empress solely on her beauty, defying all opposition and lacking any background support.
In the Shenmeng Dynasty, there was a ranking of the most beautiful women, and Luo Xiangfei consistently held the top spot, which shows just how stunning she was.
“Your Majesty!”
Duan Ming quickly bowed and explained, “This Evergreen Alliance is a new power that suddenly emerged a few years ago. Its origins are currently unknown, but it is said to have a very mysterious leader who not only helped the divided Phoenix Nirvana Dynasty reclaim its old territories but also swept through various dynasties and the three great imperial dynasties in just a few years. Now, it has completely unified Youzhou and become the new master of Youzhou!”
Luo Xiangfei became even more curious: “So powerful! Is this leader a Heavenly Venerable in the Integration Realm?”
Lie Huan nodded: “It’s possible. Only absolute crushing power can achieve such a rapid unification of Youzhou!”
Then, he sneered dismissively: “As a Heavenly Venerable in the Integration Realm, to willingly dwell in a small place like Youzhou… either they accidentally obtained an opportunity to break through within Youzhou, or they were ostracized in other places in the Central Domain and fled to Youzhou. Either way, this leader of the Evergreen Alliance is an unambitious cultivator and will not amount to much!”
Duan Ming nodded: “Indeed, Your Majesty is wise!”
Lie Huan stroked his beard: “Duan Ming, no matter what, a Heavenly Venerable is still considered a master to our Yongzhou. Although our Shenmeng Dynasty already has five Heavenly Venerables, we can never have too many such experts. See if you can win him over. What’s the point of being a local tyrant in a small place like Youzhou? If he joins the Shenmeng Dynasty, I can grant him a high position and bestow upon him a seventh-grade treasure!”
Duan Ming's eyes flickered, and he cupped his fist: “Yes, Your Majesty!”
“By the way,” Lie Huan narrowed his eyes and said, “I heard that the Third Prince and the Zhennan King have been getting quite close recently. What is he trying to do?”
As an Emperor, he was incredibly sensitive, especially an Emperor with such a long lifespan. Abdicating the throne was impossible. If it weren’t for the pressure from numerous ministers due to the large number of concubines in his harem, he wouldn’t even want to have children.
Lie Huan now had nine princes, among whom the Third Prince was the strongest, having already reached the mid-stage of the Fusion Void Realm.
The Third Prince suddenly flirting with the Zhennan King and acting intimately made Lie Huan unhappy, regardless of whether he had other intentions.
Duan Ming quickly said: “Some time ago, during the Zhennan King's ten-thousand-year birthday celebration, the Third Prince presented a gift that the Zhennan King greatly appreciated, so the two have had more interactions. It's not as Your Majesty thinks.”
“Oh?” Lie Huan glanced sideways: “What do I think?”
Don’t you know what you are thinking?
Duan Ming slandered in his heart, but said in a frightened voice: “It was my slip of the tongue.”
Lie Huan paused, turned to look at Luo Xiangfei, and smiled: “It’s been a while since I’ve seen Yan'er. Let’s go see her!”
The Yan'er that Lie Huan spoke of was his daughter with Luo Xiangfei, and also the eldest among Lie Huan's children, named Lie Feiyan, who also possessed extraordinary talent and had already reached the early stage of the Fusion Void Realm.
Luo Xiangfei pursed her lips and smiled: “Yes, Your Majesty!”
Watching the two leave the Imperial Garden, Duan Ming stood in place for a while before turning and leaving, soaring into the sky away from the Imperial Garden.

Qin Changqing had been exceptionally busy during this period, not only spreading seeds in the Eastern Region but also working diligently in various parts of Youzhou, bending his back, running until his legs broke, benefiting the masses, and feeling very happy.
The surrendered soldiers from the various dynasties and imperial dynasties conquered in the past, the guilty concubines left behind in the imperial capital, among them, there were many female cultivators with good aptitudes, and a single Heavenly Spiritual Root woman from one territory was comparable to the Eastern Region.
Heavenly Demon Dynasty.
Inside the inner palace.
Lin Huang, Xin Chaosu, Ji Linglong, and others were either sitting or standing outside the delivery room, it was crowded with people, and even many members of the Changqing family had come.
“Why hasn’t she given birth yet after so long?” Qin Weiwei's face flashed with worry.
Xin Chaosu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, Sister Yu is a Fusion Void Venerable, giving birth to a child will be fine.”
Ji Linglong stared closely at the delivery room, stroking her lower abdomen.
After learning that Yu Luosha was about to give birth, she rushed over as soon as possible, also wanting to verify whether Qin Changqing's abilities were really that magical.
Now, after Qin Weiwei and the others had been enhanced by Qin Changqing, they had made rapid progress and had already reached the Golden Core stage.
Suddenly, the teleportation array in the corner flashed with light, and everyone turned their eyes to look.
“Changqing is here!”
Qin Rongrong said in surprise.
Only three people were qualified to use this teleportation array. Besides Lin Huang and Yu Luosha, the array creators, there was only Qin Changqing himself. After all, this was Lin Huang's harem.
Now, whether it was Youzhou or the Eastern Region, under the continuous busyness of the Changqing Alliance's formation masters, multi-directional teleportation arrays had been set up in various important places to facilitate each other's travels.
Sure enough, the light dissipated, and Qin Changqing appeared in the array. He was also a little surprised to see the women: “Why are you all here?”
“Buddha light shines! It's Buddha light shining!”
Because Ji Linglong and other female relatives had filled the courtyard, the high-level monks of the Bafang Temple, who had been squeezed outside, suddenly widened their eyes, with incredible expressions on their faces.
Abbot Zhicang even trembled his lips, constantly chanting Amitabha, his face full of excitement and ecstasy: “Heaven blesses my Bafang Temple, thank you Buddha… No, thank you Vice Alliance Master!”
“The birth is actually accompanied by the Buddha's light shining, this child's Buddhist aptitude is simply heaven-defying. If he cultivates my 《Great Formless Skill》, he will definitely be invincible!”
“No, no, no, with this child's aptitude, cultivating my 《Demon Subduing Heart Sutra》 is the best!”
“Shut up, Venerable Yu is from my Chan lineage, of course, she must cultivate 《Avici Great Art》!”
“You're farting!”
“Presumptuous, how dare you snatch people from the Buddha, do you really think the Buddha doesn't have the means of Vajra thunder?”
Although the Bafang Temple was a sect, it was also divided into many lineages, and the inherited cultivation methods were not the same.
Even now that Changqing Academies had been established everywhere, due to the different paths of Buddhist cultivation, the inheritance methods of the immortal masters in the academies in various places were also different.
A Buddhist genius was even rarer and more precious than a normal spiritual root genius, which was why they were so excited.
Such a talented disciple, even in Buddhism, could not avoid committing the sin of anger.
“Amitabha!”
Abbot Zhicang put his hands together, his white eyebrows fluttering, and reprimanded: “As a member of Buddhism, you must abstain from anger and impatience, and you even want to attack your fellow disciples, it is really disappointing to this old monk, you all go back and copy the temple precepts ten thousand times!”
The others immediately showed shame, and returned with their heads down.
Abbot Zhicang saw that most of the people had left, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, thinking: Amitabha, in this way, no one will snatch it from this old monk.
