Once Upon A Time, There Was A Spirit Sword Mountain

”Are not blessed enough?” King Yunyang angrily said, ”In my entire life, I strive for the prosperity of my country, the common people live and work in peace. If there are gods to decide the (karmic) blessing of a person, then my Yunyang family ought to have the biggest (karmic) blessing!”

With that, King Yunyang suppressed his anger and explained, ”The immortal who helped you awoke, has identified the cause of the disease of you and your mother, itʼs all… itʼs all because of that cloud mist tea!”

”Cloud mist tea?”

Princess Yunyue gently repeated, it seemed like she was not surprised by this.

Gnashing his teeth, King Yunyang said, ”Itʼs the so-called immortal tea annually offered from the Fog Root Mountain! They said that their tea is not only fragrant, but also has special nourishing effect, longevity, and beauty for women. But they never mentioned that the cloud mist tea is like a poison to the women of royal blood! The illness of you and your mother is also because of this! Not only they killed your mother, they now also want to kill you, so how can I spare them?”

Princess Yunyue smiled. ”Father, you are just looking for excuses. They are just ordinary villagers, how can they understand that their cloud mist tea is harmful to royal blood? They have lived for generations in the mountain village, where drinking the tea only gives them advantages and none of its negative effect. They are merely ignorant about this so their sincere enthusiasm should not be misjudged. If we must blame something, we should blame our royal bloodline.”

”What a load of nonsense!” King Yunyang wanted to get angry, but in front of his daughter, no matter what, he could not muster it out, and could only storm out of the room. He thought that he would just wait for the ten thousand spirit blood to be refined and his daughter healed, then he would not need to care other things any longer.

However, Princess Yunyue was extremely stubborn. After her dispute with her father, she resolutely did not eat nor drink anything, determining to die. When King Yunyang became flustered upon finding it out, that was when Wang Lu stumbled on their ensuing dialogue.

—

”Well, so far the background for this court story has been clearly explained. Then the palace operation officially begins.”

When Wang Lu has seen enough of the palace drama, and seriously deduced the problem, he finally decided to solve the problem openly.

Thereupon, he straightforwardly departed from the palace with his flying sword and then arrived at the main entrance, ready to knock on the door.

Naturally, he was stopped by the guards. When asked for his identity, Wang Lu assumed the speech style and air of an immortal and said, ”I see that thereʼs an inauspicious influence condensed in this place, which contains blood light in a concealed form. I am afraid in the last few days, there is a disaster here. I came here with the specific purpose of becoming intermediary to avoid calamities and to clear up the confusions.”

If he were just an ordinary people, perhaps the loyal guard would immediately cut his head off. However, when Wang Lu said those words while standing on the floating sword, even the fiercely loyal guard did not dare to question him again but just passed the words hurriedly to the King of Yunyang.

After that wandering Taoist Priest, King Yunyang attached great importance to highly skilled people who clearly have the immortal method.

”May I ask immortal is…”

Wang Lu thought for a moment, and then decided just to tell the truth, ”I am the lead disciple of Spirit Sword Sect, Wang Lu. Right now, Iʼm traveling outside under the name of my sect. When I passed this place, I see that thereʼs a condensation of inauspicious influence. I am afraid there is an impending great danger, so I came here to help you.”

King Yunyang frowned. ”I wonder what is the impending great danger referred to by immortal…”
