Chapter 235 Not Coming Out
Nie Sha and Cao Wen Zheng looked at each other again. This was the nth time they had looked at each other.
"Go to the voice transmission port and shout again to see what's going on."
"Okay, I'll go shout again."
……
Cao Wenzheng went to the voice transmission port and shouted inside: "The three-year period has expired, Your Majesty, why haven't you come out yet?"
There was still no movement inside, as if there was no one there.
"Did something happen?" Nie Sha guessed.
Cao Wen Zheng shook his head: "No, even if something happened, he would have time to ask for help, so there wouldn't be no movement at all. Let's wait a little longer, maybe he is still in seclusion practicing."
Let's continue waiting. Soon the Mao hour passed and the Chen hour arrived. The sky was bright and the two had waited all night.
The depths of the Yangxing Palace was still quiet, just as before.
Nie Sha and Cao Wen Zheng continued to wait. The Chen hour passed, the Si hour passed, the Wu hour passed, the Wei hour passed... until the next Zi hour, when Lu Changjing's immortal physique increased by one again, and his defense, endurance, and lifespan increased accordingly, and his strength, speed, reaction, etc. were also improved.
Ning Zhongyu in the Yangxing Palace was like a turtle that had been immersed in a deep pool for years, motionless and without any sound.
Cao Wenzhen was worried that Lu Changjing and others would be anxious, so he went over to tell them. Lu Changjing slapped him dozens of times again. He came back with a red and swollen face and continued to wait for Ning Zhongyu to come out of seclusion.
Lu Changjing was also busy practicing and didn't care much about what happened here.
To him at this moment, Ning Zhongyu was just a clown and no longer posed any threat, so there was no need to care too much about him.
When the next morning came, Nie Sha and Cao Wen Zheng were already extremely anxious, and they finally heard a voice coming from the depths of the Yangxing Palace.
"I still need to retreat and practice, so let that fake emperor pretend to be the emperor for a while. You two should handle the affairs inside and outside the court as before."
After he finished speaking, without waiting for the two to react, he fell silent. Cao Wenzhen was so anxious that he almost jumped up.
"Your Majesty, there is someone outside who needs to see you urgently. Please come out for a moment."
"It's been a while since we last met. Your Majesty, don't you want to meet the civil and military officials of the court and the concubines in the harem?"
……
Ning Zhongyu inside shook his head: "I don't want to see you. I'm going to practice."
As he spoke, he closed the voice transmission port from the inside and stopped listening to the noise outside.
He has already gone out twice and has seen everything he should have seen, so there is naturally no need to do this again.
Looking at the Yangxing Palace where there was no movement anymore, Nie Sha and Cao Wenzheng looked at each other, and finally had no choice but to go back.
"Clap clap clap..."
As soon as he returned, Cao Wenzhen was beaten away again, and Lu Changjing was speechless.
Is this little turtle Ning Zhongyu so careless? He has been pretending to be the emperor for three years, and he is not worried about anything going wrong. Why does he have to continue to stay in seclusion?
At least he should come out and take a look. As long as this guy dares to come out, Lu Changjing will make him unable to come in again. I didn't expect this guy to not even come out. What should I do?
Lu Changjing went to check the healing chamber in the Yangxing Palace on purpose. The divine stone used to cast the chamber was extremely thick, and even he could not break it.
Not to mention the Daning Xiaoling Mausoleum, the sacred stones there are even more solid, one layer after another. It was previously thought that mid-level gods and demons should be able to break them, but now it seems that even top-level gods and demons, whether they can break them is still an unknown.
The former Ning royal family was at least one of the gods, and they were able to pass down even the top-level mystical arts, not to mention the buildings made of divine stones.
This thing is not easy to take away, and it is not worth much. Even ordinary gods and demons don’t think much of it.
Although the magic stone sounds impressive, many of them are not expensive, and it just so happens that the Daning royal family used such magic stones.
Forget it. There’s no rush anyway. Just let them be cowards for a few more days. They’re not a threat at all.
Lu Changjing has already been dealing with some people from the Ning royal family. The number is not large because most of the Ning royal family members were secretly slaughtered by Ning Tianbao and their blood soul fruits were refined into them, which saved Lu Changjing a lot of trouble.
The rest either have a good relationship with Ning Tianbao or have a special status and are difficult to kill in order to refine the divine objects.
Lu Changjing tampered with their memories and made them cooperate with Ning Yuwan. When he felt the opportunity was right later, he would ask them to cooperate with Ning Yuwan to speak out and expose the evil deeds of the Ning royal family over the years.
It can be said that everything is ready, and we just need to catch the big and small turtles and then we can close the net.
However, Lu Changjing is still considering how to treat the Ning royal family. After all, he also has to consider the three great divine dynasties.
If the three great divine dynasties took this opportunity to plunder the last wealth of the Ning royal family, or if they wanted to avenge the Ning royal family, a hero of the human race, and take him down together with the Ning royal family, then things would be bad.
This is not something that is impossible to happen. The bottom line of the three great divine dynasties is not high, as can be seen from their previous wanton looting of Ning's ancestors.
We must also be wary of the possibility that Ning Tianbao, seeing that there is no hope of survival, will reveal the Ning royal family's profound background to the outside world.
Although it has been in decline for many years, the Ning royal family is worthy of being the top divine dynasty in the past, and it actually has many trump cards, such as the magical weapons and magical pills that Lu Changjing covets, as well as the top-level mystical technique, the Soul-Picking Secret Scripture.
These could trigger a scramble among the three great divine dynasties, and they might even send multiple gods and demons here. This is very likely.
Since the threat is not big and it does not affect his practice and rule of this territory, and he can also pull out the Ning royal family to deal with the disaster at a critical moment, it is better to keep them for the time being and deal with them slowly.
As long as these two turtles dare to show up, they will be hit with a fatal blow.
After sending Nie Sha and Cao Wenzhen away, Lu Changjing continued his practice and was not affected by this incident.
The little turtle is really good at hiding. He has been hiding for three years and still hasn't come out. He won't wait until he reaches the top level of gods and demons and brings the dynasty to the level of the Divine Dynasty before coming out.
Forget it, don’t think about it anymore and just continue practicing.
Although Ning Zhongyu did not come out, his concubine Tang Qingyi soon came to find Lu Changjing, and the strawberry mark on her neck had almost disappeared.
This stunning beauty who even Ning Zhongyu was astonished by was soon embraced by Lu Changjing and they started a verbal battle. He then asked her to help him make imported delicacies. He originally wanted to find grapes, but Concubine Tang was alert and did not give Lu Changjing a chance.
She was most likely afraid. After all, she had only just started learning the Dragon and Phoenix Secret Art and she still had a long way to go before achieving minor success, let alone major success and perfection.
With further ambitions, there is a possibility of breaking through the shackles of gods and demons in the future, which makes those who want to have children fade away.
Although he couldn't find any grapes, it didn't affect Lu Changjing's ability to push Concubine Tang down...
