Upon seeing the figure, Wanwan smiled, called out affectionately, and went to greet it.
Zhu Yuyan looked at her most prized disciple, a smile on her face, and nodded repeatedly:
"You've been doing well lately, your complexion is getting better and better, and your eyes have become much gentler. From now on, when you go out, no one will call you a little witch anymore."
It seems that guy treats you quite well. Wanwan, you're lucky to have met a good man.
"Master, you're teasing me too."
Wanwan cried out in protest, then clung to Zhu Yuyan's arm and pleaded.
then.
She glanced around again and asked, "Master, how come there are so many experts hidden on this mountain?"
"Your Majesty is here."
Zhu Yuyan answered.
Wanwan nodded inwardly; it matched her guess.
The reason why this mountain was so heavily guarded was because Emperor Yang of Sui had come.
Cihang Jingzhai supports the Tang Dynasty.
The Yin Kui faction, on the other hand, supported the Sui Dynasty.
The "Your Majesty" that Zhu Yuyan was referring to was naturally Emperor Yang of Sui, Yang Guang.
Thinking of Yang Guang, Wanwan sighed inwardly. Clearly, she didn't have a high opinion of this second emperor of the Sui Dynasty.
"Let's go, come with me to see His Majesty."
Zhu Yuyan said something to Wanwan, then led the way up the mountain.
Wanwan followed closely behind.
After a while.
Upon reaching the mountaintop, Wanwan saw a middle-aged couple.
The man was dressed in a yellow robe and had an imposing appearance, but it was obvious that he had been indulging in wine and women for a long time, which had drained his body. His complexion was sallow, swollen, and he had very dark circles under his eyes.
This person was none other than Emperor Yang of Sui, Yang Guang.
Beside Yang Guang was a middle-aged beauty dressed in luxurious clothes. Although she was middle-aged, her skin was fair and delicate, and she was still charming and elegant. She was Yang Guang's empress, Empress Xiao.
Upon seeing Yang Guang, Wanwan frowned.
He already understood why Yang Guang had disguised himself and mobilized a large force to come to Qixia Town.
They must be like the four members of the Li family from the Tang Dynasty, who came to ask Chen Yan for advice.
"The Sui Dynasty is now in turmoil. Not only has the Tang Dynasty swallowed up half of its territory, but the remaining half is also in grave danger. The people are full of complaints, and uprisings are springing up everywhere."
The question Emperor Yang of Sui wanted to ask was probably related to his empire…
Wanwan's heart stirred, and she had already guessed roughly what Emperor Yang of Sui's purpose was.
then.
Her gaze swept past Yang Guang and then fell upon the people behind him.
Among these people were Yang Guang's trusted subordinates Yuwen Huaji and others, as well as many experts from the Yin Kui Sect who were responsible for their protection.
Such as Wanwan's junior sister Bai Qing'er, Elders Bi Shouxuan, Wen Caiting, Bian Bufu, Elder Yun, Elder Xia, Wei Lianxiang, etc.
Bai Qing'er, Bian Bufu, Pi Shouxuan, and others also saw Wanwan. Some greeted her with smiles, while others remained indifferent.
Wanwan was already used to the indifferent looks from her fellow disciples.
Although they are all members of the Yin Kui faction, their relationship is not necessarily harmonious.
At this time.
Wanwan took two more steps forward and bowed to Yang Guang and Empress Xiao.
"Holy Maiden, there's no need for such formalities. The Yin Kui Sect has helped me a great deal. Both Sect Leader Zhu Yuyan and the Holy Maiden are my good friends."
Yang Guang smiled slightly, stretched out his hands, and stopped Wanwan from bowing.
Wanwan's heart stirred.
She had already guessed that the reason why the tyrant Yang Guang was so kind to her was mostly because of Chen Yan.
I was secretly proud of myself.
It's good when your own man is strong; even the current emperor has to extend his love to him.
Empress Xiao then smiled and praised, "I haven't seen the Holy Maiden for a year or two, and she has become even more radiant."
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. You are truly getting younger with age, which is very enviable."
Wanwan grew up in the Yin Kui Sect and was adept at these kinds of hypocritical things. However, the longer she stayed in the fortune-telling shop, the more disgusted she became with hypocrisy.
There's no more lingering now.
She took the initiative to be direct, saying, "Your Majesty and the Empress have come here, presumably to see our manager. If you don't mind, I'd be happy to make the introductions."
Yang Guang was overjoyed upon hearing this.
indeed.
The reason he was more amiable than usual to Wanwan was that he wanted to use Wanwan to meet Chen Yan.
Now that Wanwan has taken the initiative to offer it, he couldn't have asked for more.
Empress Xiao also showed a look of joy.
The Sui Dynasty is now in grave danger.
I've heard that Master Chen is all-knowing; I wonder if I can obtain a magic formula from him to save the Sui Dynasty from its perilous state.
Even the Yin Kui Sect experts standing behind them, such as Bai Qing'er, Bian Bufu, and Pi Shouxuan, were moved.
They had heard Chen Yan's immortal reputation far too many times.
Now that I'm about to see it with my own eyes, it's hard not to feel a mix of emotions...

mountain top.
After Wanwan suggested introducing Chen Yan to Yang Guang.
Everyone looked on with anticipation.
Just as Wanwan was about to turn around and lead the way, she heard a dissatisfied voice: "Hmph! That Immortal Master Chen has quite the airs!"
Now that His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty has arrived, it is only right that he, a commoner, should come to pay homage.
How could we trouble His Majesty of the Great Sui Dynasty to personally go and see him!
Wanwan frowned upon hearing the voice.
He looked toward the person who was speaking.
Discover,
The man who uttered the cold snort was none other than Yuwen Huaji, Yang Guang's most favored minister and the Right Guard General.
Yang Guang had already lifted his foot, ready to follow Wanwan to see Chen Yan.
Upon hearing Yuwen Huaji's words, he put his foot down again, a look of hesitation appearing on his face.
He is a man who cares a lot about his reputation.
It's fine if no one mentioned it before.
Now, after listening to Yuwen Huaji's words, he also felt that it was beneath his status as an emperor to have a meeting with a commoner.
Wanwan, who was about to lead the way, noticed this but remained completely calm.
Anyway, it's Yang Guang who needs to see Chen Yan, not the other way around. If he doesn't want to go, he doesn't have to go. It's no big deal.
Unexpectedly.
At this time, Yuwen Huaji set his sights on her again.
He said in an imperious tone, "Holy Maiden, His Majesty is waiting for Immortal Master Chen here. Why don't you go and invite Immortal Master Chen here?"
"No way."
Wanwan coldly refused: "If General Yuwen has the ability, then go and invite our manager over yourself. I certainly can't get that lazybones to come..."
Should I go and invite Master Chen over?
Yuwen Huaji was startled.
He only wanted to flatter Yang Guang, but he dared not ask him to invite Chen Yan.
After all, everyone in the martial arts world knows that Master Chen is usually quite easy to talk to, but he is ruthless when it comes to killing.
If I were to accidentally offend Master Chen, the consequences would be unimaginable...
atmosphere.
They were instantly at a standstill.
