Chapter 527 Reunion of old friends
After Yun Yao and Chu Mochen established the "Hongmeng Temple" in Zifu Cave Heaven, the news spread quickly throughout the cultivation world like ripples. This temple was like a bright star, shining with endless majesty and mystery, attracting the attention of all parties. For a time, countless forces sent envoys to pay homage with awe, flattery or curiosity, hoping to establish a relationship with these two newly rising masters, or to learn a secret or two.
The temple stood tall and majestic, exuding the purple air of Hongmeng. The temple was decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and runes were flashing, showing her extraordinary and otherworldly appearance. Yun Yao sat on the main seat of the temple, wearing a gorgeous Hongmeng brocade robe and a phoenix hairpin on her head. Her eyes were as deep as the abyss, revealing her calmness and wisdom after experiencing vicissitudes of life. The spiritual power surrounding her body was like a materialized galaxy, indicating her current respected status. Chu Mochen stood aside, his figure was as straight as a pine tree, wearing a black robe embroidered with chaotic dark patterns, exuding a cold breath, and his powerful aura made people who approached him unconsciously feel fear.
Envoys from various countries filed in, wearing the most luxurious clothes of their respective countries, carrying a dazzling array of treasures, and carefully stepped into the temple. Some envoys were so nervous that sweat broke out on their foreheads and their steps were a little flustered; some pretended to be calm, but their eyes flickered and they looked around at this hall full of mysterious power. Everyone first saluted respectfully, shouting "Greetings to the Hongmeng Sword Master, Greetings to the Chaos Emperor", and the sound echoed in the temple for a long time.
Yun Yao looked at everyone calmly, raised her hand slightly and motioned for everyone to stand up. At this moment, a familiar figure came into her sight. The person was wearing a dragon robe, a crown on his head, graceful but heroic, and walked towards her step by step. When the person came closer, Yun Yao looked carefully and found that it was Xiao Cui. The little maid who was timid but kind-hearted in the palace and depended on her for life has now become a female emperor.
Xiao Cui raised her head, tears glistening in her eyes, but a happy smile hung on the corners of her mouth. "Miss, no, now I should call you Hongmeng Sword Master. Xiao Cui finally sees you again." Her voice was choked with sobs, and memories of the past surged into her heart like a tide.
Yun Yao's eyes were also slightly red. She stood up and walked down the stairs quickly, holding Xiao Cui's hand. "Xiao Cui, it's really you. I'm very pleased to see you like this now." She looked at Xiao Cui carefully and found that although the years left some traces on her face, it added a bit of maturity and perseverance.
Xiao Cui gently shook her head and said with emotion: "If it weren't for the young lady's care and advice back then, Xiao Cui would not be where she is today. Back then in the palace, everyone bullied and humiliated me, but the young lady treated me as a sister and taught me to read and write, making me understand that women can also achieve something." As she spoke, her eyes were full of gratitude and nostalgia.
Chu Mochen, who was standing by, watched the reunion scene with a slight smile on his face, and a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He knew very well what Xiaocui meant to Yunyao. It was one of the few sources of warmth and comfort Yunyao had when she first entered this strange and cruel world.
Xiao Cui calmed down a little, raised her hand and signaled the attendant behind her to present an exquisite brocade box. "Miss, Xiao Cui came here to present our country's 'National Destiny Dragon Ball'. This ball was nurtured by our ancestors for thousands of years with the power of national destiny. It contains tremendous energy and can help you."
Yun Yao was slightly startled. She knew how precious the "National Destiny Dragon Ball" was. This kind of treasure was related to the rise and fall of a country. Xiao Cui was willing to give it without hesitation, which showed her sincerity. She gently took the brocade box, and the moment she opened it, a dazzling light burst out, and the dragon ball floated up, surrounded by colorful rays of light, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Yun Yao closed her eyes and used her spiritual power to sense the power of the dragon ball. After a moment, she opened her eyes, full of surprise. "Xiao Cui, this treasure is indeed very useful to me. I will not let you down." As she spoke, she pinched the magic formula in her hand and sacrificed the Hongmeng sword embryo.
The Hongmeng sword embryo was suspended in the air, and the sword body trembled slightly, as if responding to the power of the dragon ball. Yun Yao guided the dragon ball to slowly approach the sword embryo. The moment the two came into contact, the light shone brightly and dazzlingly. The energy of the dragon ball wrapped around the sword embryo like a silk thread, gradually merging into it. The runes on the sword embryo became clearer and clearer, shining with unprecedented light, as if it had been given new life.
As the fusion deepened, Yun Yao could clearly feel the transformation of the Hongmeng Sword Embryo. Not only did its material become tougher, but the spiritual power it contained was also several times more powerful, and the sword body faintly exuded a protective power. This power was enough to protect the secular world and allow those weak mortal countries to have the power to resist when facing the covetousness of cultivators.
The envoys watching this magical scene were all amazed. They knew that from now on, the reputation of the Hongmeng Sword Master and the Chaos Emperor would be even more well-known, and the Purple Mansion Cave Heaven and the forces they represented would become the core of the cultivation world and even the wider world.
Yun Yao put away the sword embryo, took Xiao Cui's hand again, and said: "Xiao Cui, now you are the empress, shouldering the heavy responsibility of a country. If you have any difficulties in the future, just speak up. You and I are sisters, there is no need to be polite."
Xiao Cui nodded heavily, "Thank you, Miss. Xiao Cui will work hard to govern the country and live up to your expectations. I also hope that you and the Emperor can protect this world and let the people enjoy peace."
The two talked about their old relationship for a long time. Xiao Cui told how she had gone through a difficult journey over the years, from a humble maid to how she relied on the wisdom taught by Yun Yao and her own efforts to gain a foothold in the court step by step and finally ascend to the throne. Yun Yao sometimes frowned and sometimes felt relieved, feeling a lot of emotions in her heart.
After the envoys from various countries left, Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stood on the top of the temple, overlooking the world shrouded by the Hongmeng Qi. Yun Yao gently stroked the Hongmeng Sword Embryo that had been fused with the Dragon Ball, and said, "Chu Lang, with Xiao Cui's help, the burden on our shoulders is heavier. The stability of this secular world is also our unshirkable responsibility."
Chu Mochen gently put his arm around Yun Yao's shoulders and looked into the distance with a determined gaze. "Don't worry, Yao'er. With you and I working together, we will be able to protect this world. The future of this Hongmeng universe will be written by us together."
At this moment, the breeze blew, their clothes fluttered, and the two figures, set against the purple light, looked like an eternal painting, indicating that they will continue to create more legends, protect thousands of lives, and stride towards an unknown but hopeful future on this magnificent journey of cultivation. The appearance of Xiao Cui not only brought back a warm old memory, but also injected new motivation into their journey forward, making them more determined to protect.
