80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled

Chapter 78: Princess Yulin

After receiving pointers from Sect Leader Luo Yu, Emperor De now knew how to improve himself even further until he made a breakthrough into the next realm.

Avoid coitus in the next three months, maintain the peak state of his body, and he will eventually make a breakthrough into the Martial Sage Realm.

‘In the history of the Yuhua God Dynasty, there has never been an 18-year-old Martial Sage…’

‘Whether it’s Father Emperor or Grandpa Emperor, they are both wise rulers in their own generation. The only drawback that they have is that they died too early’

Emperor De didn’t want to repeat the old ways of his Father Emperor and Grandpa Emperor.

Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming were definitely wise rulers.

They reformed and managed the world, and also pulled the Yuhua God Dynasty back from the brink of collapse.

Their achievements were undeniable.

However, both Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming lived very short lives.

Their reforms were completed by the efforts of both of them.

Each of them had only lived for ten plus years as emperors, even adding the sum of their reigns only amounted to 30 plus years.

Emperor De didn’t want to follow the same path as his father and grandfather.

Hence, while he was studying politics, he was also very interested in the pursuit of the martial path.

He wanted to strengthen his body and live a long life.

He wanted to become the Yuhua God Dynasty’s longest-living Emperor.

This was why he was able to resist the urge to live a happy life as a newlywed with his wife.

After leaving the Zenith Heaven Path Sect, Emperor De returned to the Forbidden City and sent a letter to the Empress. He informed her that he would be in seclusion for the next three months and that he wouldn’t be going over for the time being.

He wanted to practice abstinence for the sake of becoming a Martial Sage.

…

In the Empress Dowager’s palace, Lin Tianyuan’s Empress had become the Empress Dowager.

She was only in her thirties, not old at all.

She was at the prime of her age as a woman.

But despite her age, she had already matured.

She was often dressed in a dignified manner, giving off the air of grace and elegance.

As a woman who had been in charge of the state affairs of the Yuhua God Dynasty for several years now. Her skills were irrefutable.

She was once able to manage the imperial harem in an orderly manner. If it weren’t for the fact that the members of the Mountain Ghost Race had bewitched Lin Tianyuan, the imperial harem would’ve remained peaceful until the end.

Management was her life skill.

After Lin Tianyuan’s death, she started to manage the state affairs.

She handled them very well and in a broad-minded manner, earning the endless praises of the court officials around her.

“Your Majesty went to the Zenith Heaven Path Sect again today?”

The Empress Dowager looked at the excited Emperor De and asked.

“Yes, Mother… I have found a way to make a breakthrough into the Martial Sage Realm. Three months later, I will definitely be at the Martial Sage Realm,” Emperor De said proudly.

Emperor Dowager was surprised. “Is that true?”

“Of course! Mother always said that the people of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect have bad intentions, but Sect Master Luo Yu imparted everything he knew to me. He even imparted some techniques suitable for Martial Sages to me…”

“In addition, there has never been an 18-year-old Martial Sage in the history of our Yuhua God Dynasty,” Emperor De said proudly.

He trusted Sect Leader Luo Yu very much.

The Emperor Dowager’s originally happy mood instantly simmered down.

She couldn’t help but speak up, “Son, you are the Emperor. You cannot have such trust in a stranger. Even if Sect Master Luo Yu has no evil intentions towards you, you still cannot fully trust anyone!”

Emperor De’s excitement immediately vanished.

He could only sigh and reply, “Mother is right, I understand.”

The Empress Dowager wanted to say more, but Emperor De directly bowed and said, “I still have to cultivate. I will leave the state affairs to Mother. In any case, Mother is more knowledgeable than me.”

The Empress Dowager watched as Emperor De left in a fit of pique.

She sighed helplessly.

“His stubbornness is exactly the same as his father’s, even his pride is also exactly the same…”

The Empress Dowager felt a headache coming her way.

Emperor De was just too similar to Lin Tianyuan.

Especially his temper…

His temper was practically carved out from the same mold as Lin Tianyuan’s.

“But your father has Uncle supporting him, and you don’t…”

“I can contact Uncle, but you can’t. This means that Uncle doesn’t have that much feelings for you. All these years, you’ve been treating that Sect Leader Luo Yu as your backer. What a childish idea.” The Empress Dowager sighed.

She was truly worried about this matter.

‘The people of the plains, and the Xianbei tribes have recently united to form a tremendously powerful force called the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow!’

“The Great Xia Dragon Sparrow had always frequently invaded our borders. The scouts have reported that there is an extremely terrifying existence on their side, and they are about to make a move. They are a force that we cannot afford to underestimate.”

“But you aren’t actually concerned about this matter…”

“Instead, you only focused on your cultivation.”

The Empress Dowager felt vexed.

Perhaps her son wasn’t suitable to be the Emperor at all, but a true cultivator.

But she had no choice.

She only had this one son and a daughter.

Moreover, the Yuhua God Dynasty had never allowed a woman to ascend to the throne since its establishment hundreds of years ago.

So it had to be Emperor De.

But his actions gave the Empress Dowager nothing but a headache.

‘Should I tell him that he has a great-grandfather who is much more powerful than the Zenith Heaven Path Sect?’ The Empress Dowager thought silently.

She supported her head with her hands. This subtle action of hers and the worry on her face painted a picturesque scene that no one had witnessed.

…

Lin Jiufeng was from the generation of Emperor De’s grandfather

That’s right…

It has been decades since he arrived in this world.

Lin Jiufeng still couldn’t feel that he had done anything substantial yet, but he already became a great-uncle.

Today, the white cat asked Lin Jiufeng about the inner workings of the imperial family.

Lin Jiufeng hugged the white cat and slowly explained some of the inner workings of the imperial family.

As he talked, Lin Jiufeng suddenly realized that he was already in the grandfather generation.

He was Emperor Yuan’s biological elder brother.

Emperor Ming was his nephew.

Emperor De was his grandnephew.

They were from the same lineage.

The children of the other princes had little to do with Lin Jiufeng.

But the direct bloodline of Emperor Yuan was still relatively close to Lin Jiufeng.

Lin Tianyuan only had two children, a son, and a daughter.

His son became Emperor De.

His daughter was conferred the title of Princess Yulin.

Lin Yulin was Emperor De’s younger sister, Lin Tianyuan’s daughter, and the only princess of the Yuhua God Dynasty.

She was of noble status.

“But you’ve never seen any of your grandnephews at all,” The white cat said.

“Why should I? They have their own lives to live, and they might never get involved with me in their entire lifetime. Why should I go look for them?” Lin Jiufeng said with a smile.

“A lifetime is too long. What you said is too absolute, there are what-ifs in this world.”

The white cat rebutted Lin Jiufeng.

“But I feel that I won’t be able to see them for the rest of my life,” Lin Jiufeng said confidently.

He had a lifespan of thousands of years, while Emperor De and Princess Yulin only had a lifespan of a mere hundred years.

Moreover, they were both in the prosperous parts of the Imperial Capital, while Lin Jiufeng was in the Cold Palace that no one cared about in the Imperial Capital.

How could there be any contact between them?

The white cat mumbled, “I have a hunch that you will soon come into contact with your grandnephews.”

Lin Jiufeng smiled without saying anything.

He reached out to stroke the white cat, but he didn’t refute her words.

Still, he refused to believe the white cat’s words.

…

Yuhua God Dynasty, Forbidden City.

A beautiful woman dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe with a sweet smile walked into the place where the treasured relics of both Emperor Yuan and Emperor Ming were stored.

“There must be a treasure within Father and Grandpa Emperor’s relics!”

“Brother Emperor only knows how to cultivate from day to night and even mocked me for my poor talent. This is simply preposterous. I must find a treasure to become stronger and Brother Emperor will soon come and beg me for help when the time comes!”

The pure young girl excitedly rummaged through the large pile of relics.

She was the only princess of the Yuhua God Dynasty, Princess Yulin.

She was doted on since she was young, but she didn’t develop an arrogant and tyrannical personality. Instead, her personality was considered adorable, childish, and empathic.

She also knew how to take pity on strangers.

All in all, she was a very cute girl.

“Huh, what’s this? Why is it in Grandpa Emperor’s treasured relics?” Yu Lin suddenly found a key.

It was very old and it wasn’t an item from the palace.

She looked at it curiously.

“It’s the Key to Lord Zhenbei’s palace!”

Princess Yulin frowned and thought carefully.

She had heard of this name before.

“Lord Zhenbei, isn’t this a lord who was disinherited many years ago?”

“This lord was imprisoned in his own palace and died of insanity. His palace became the Cold Palace from then on.” Princess Yulin frowned slightly.

“Why did Grandpa Emperor keep this key?”

“He even kept it in such a hidden place.”

Princess Yulin’s eyes gradually lit up.

It seemed that she had discovered a great secret.
