Imperial Cultivation Chapter 1477 - 1473: The Outcome

Zhou Qingyu looked helplessly at Chu Zhiyuan.

Master is really annoying, always teasing me.

Actually, it’s unnecessary.

I will work hard on my cultivation, striving to achieve Venerable status as soon as possible, or even become Spirit Venerable.

Chu Zhiyuan retrieved the Little Divine Flower and looked up at the sky: "Let’s go back."

"Back already?"

"More or less, we’ll return in a few days to check again."

At this time, it’s not suitable for the clone to come and explore; it’s better to see Huang Zhengyang’s side first.

This Grotto Heaven is very peculiar, very dangerous.

"Yes." Zhou Qingyu felt quite unsatisfied.

These snake monsters are terrifying, causing the scalp to tingle, body covered in goosebumps, yet thinking back now, it’s stimulating and interesting.

This is much better than bitterly practicing martial arts in the small courtyard.

Chu Zhiyuan patted her shoulder, and with a flash, they disappeared.

They returned to his small courtyard.

As soon as they appeared, they heard Shen Hanyue’s voice coming from the neighboring courtyard: "Prince, are you back?"

"Come over." Chu Zhiyuan said.

Shen Hanyue and Xiao Ruoling gracefully leaped over the wall, gently landing in front of them.

"Mistress, Aunt Shen." Zhou Qingyu stepped forward to salute.

Shen Hanyue giggled and said: "Little Qingyu, how was the fun?"

"We went to a New Cave Heaven, it was very interesting." Zhou Qingyu smiled.

"Which Grotto Heaven?" Shen Hanyue was curious.

Zhou Qingyu looked at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "A New Cave Heaven discovered by the Biyuan Heavenly Court, very wondrous."

"Biyuan Heavenly Court... better leave it alone." Shen Hanyue said: "Don’t provoke them, be careful."

Xiao Ruoling said: "Master and Palace Master have always said that the Courts of each Heaven are not to be underestimated, best not to provoke."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

He understood this point, so he was always cautious, avoiding showing off.

Shen Hanyue said: "Prince, you came at the right time. We’ve captured two experts from Forget Sorrow Valley."

Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.

Xiao Ruoling nodded slightly: "Currently interrogating them."

Shen Hanyue said: "These experts from Forget Sorrow Valley weren’t easy to catch, it took quite some effort, Prince care to take a look?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head: "I shouldn’t interfere too much, shouldn’t get too involved."

Shen Hanyue said: "Prince, you’re already involved, still want to remain outside? ... Don’t forget, the Heaven-Reaching Sect and Li Huo Palace’s feud might also be Forget Sorrow Valley’s doing!"

Xiao Ruoling nodded slightly.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and asked: "Did the Palace Master speak?"

"Palace Master has long hoped for your help, Prince." Shen Hanyue hurriedly said.

Xiao Ruoling said: "Palace Master always wanted your assistance, but knowing you didn’t fancy it, didn’t dare to force."

"Ladies, you..."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and laughed.

Xiao Ruoling asked: "Then husband, are you not planning to help?"

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and said: "Profound Yin Palace has many extraordinary individuals, it’s not that I’m indispensable."

Shen Hanyue said: "The sisters are formidable, but compared to you, Prince, they’re far inferior."

The Donghuan Saint Technique is most mysterious.

In one glance it sees through future and past, saving effort and trouble.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Just pretend I’m not here, once I go into seclusion, it could take ten or twenty years, I’m not reliable, ... furthermore, I must avoid suspicion in this matter."

Xiao Ruoling’s bright eyes flashed, as though she had thought of something.

She understood Chu Zhiyuan’s meaning.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to help, but the Palace Master has concerns, doesn’t wish for his help.

In fact, the Palace Master is wary of her husband.

Shen Hanyue said: "Then I will inquire about what’s going on."

Xiao Ruoling said: "Junior Sister."

Shen Hanyue was stunned.

Xiao Ruoling lightly shook her head: "Let it be, it’s indeed unwise for husband to get too involved, lest suspicion falls on him."

"How is that possible!" Shen Hanyue laughed: "What business is it of the Prince?"

Xiao Ruoling said: "What if it turns out Forget Sorrow Valley wasn’t behind it?"

Shen Hanyue said: "Then just continue to deal with Li Huo Palace."

Xiao Ruoling lightly shook her head: "If during the investigation, the disciples suffer casualties?"

Shen Hanyue stalled.

"Mistress has valid concerns," Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Since you’re not in charge of this matter, focus on practicing martial arts."

"Senior Sister, you’re overthinking it."

Shen Hanyue sighed.

She felt Chu Zhiyuan was wholeheartedly assisting Profound Yin Palace, but would the disciples think so?

Xiao Ruoling said: "Hopefully it’s just me overthinking, Junior Sister, you must trust the Palace Master and all the senior sisters, masters and patriarchs."

"Alright." Shen Hanyue agreed.

Chu Zhiyuan began sparring with them.

He restrained his cultivation, using the strength of Nine Transitions Venerable, yet even so, he suppressed them until they were breathless.

His moves were ruthless, pushing them to the brink, continuously unleashing their potential.

Zhou Qingyu watched on the side, drawing in sharp breaths.

Chu Zhiyuan’s attacks were berserk and swift, with great speed, overwhelming power.

The two women were like balls, often getting knocked into the air, crashing fiercely into the wall.

If the wall wasn’t made of special material, reinforced intentionally, it would have been collapsed long ago.

Seeing their pale faces, Zhou Qingyu knew how painful it was.

But Chu Zhiyuan showed no mercy, seemingly blind to their expressions.

She secretly clicked her tongue, her master was truly harsh.

Mistress and Aunt Shen, such beauties, yet his attacks were so cruel, truly hard-hearted.

She should be careful herself, not expect any mercy or leniency from her master.

"Dong dong..."

The sound of knocking on the door ringed outside.

The three retreated gracefully.

The two women were gasping heavily, fragrant sweat soaking their clothes halfway.

They looked exhausted, looking towards the courtyard gate.

Zhou Qingyu knowingly drifted over, opened the gate.

To see two beautiful radiant young girls standing outside the courtyard, smiling brightly over.

Zhou Qingyu cupped her hands and said: "Aunt Meng, Granny Sun..."

"Qingyu, is your master back?"

"Yes."

Chu Zhiyuan raised his voice and said: "Senior Sister Meng, Senior Sister Sun, please come in."

Zhou Qingyu hurriedly invited them into the courtyard.

Meng Yunyin and Sun Jing entered gracefully, seeing Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue’s condition, Meng Yunyin laughed: "Oh, what’s the matter?"

Her slender and graceful, her bright eyes glanced sideways, stunningly beautiful.

"Senior Sister Sun, Senior Sister Meng, you look so happy!" Shen Hanyue teased.

Xiao Ruoling smiled: "We were sparring."

Meng Yunyin playfully giggled: "Haha, this sparring is intense, two against brother-in-law?"

Sun Jing smiled: "Sparring with two Junior Sisters, brother-in-law surely has leisure."

They were close with both Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue, as well as Chu Zhiyuan.

Since Chu Zhiyuan had either directly or indirectly saved their lives, they spoke freely.

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "Both senior sisters wouldn’t come to the Three Treasure Hall for no reason."

"That’s not true, we often come by, just haven’t caught you, brother-in-law." Meng Yunyin said.

Sun Jing said: "But this time we did come with a request for brother-in-law."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "I was just about to send Qingyu back; otherwise..."

"Brother-in-law!" Sun Jing teased: "This time you plan to just watch?"

Meng Yunyin laughed: "Brother-in-law hasn’t heard what it’s about, and directly declined, do you have grievances against our Profound Yin Palace? ... Did Junior Sister Xiao offend you?"

Xiao Ruoling gave her a sideways glance.

Shen Hanyue giggled.

Sun Jing smiled: "Brother-in-law must know we’ve captured two disciples from Forget Sorrow Valley, currently interrogating."

Chu Zhiyuan helplessly said: "Did you get anything out of them?"

"No." Sun Jing shook her head.

Meng Yunyin snorted: "They’ve both never seen that Strange Insect Jade Pendant."

Chu Zhiyuan looked at them.

"Seems they really don’t know." Meng Yunyin said.

Sun Jing said: "Brother-in-law, you should help with the interrogation, ask them."

Meng Yunyin nodded deeply, anxiously looking at them, then at Xiao Ruoling and Shen Hanyue.

Xiao Ruoling had already turned away, avoiding meeting eyes with Meng Yunyin and Sun Jing.

Shen Hanyue, however, was a bit embarrassed by their gaze, coughed lightly, but didn’t speak.

Meng Yunyin teased: "Oh, you two, elbows turning towards brother-in-law!"

Shen Hanyue giggled: "Junior Sister Meng, I can’t help it, can’t force the Prince’s hand."
