Chapter 191 Offering of Skills
royal palace.
In the imperial study room.
Lu Yuan was led by the eunuch to the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, your humble servant greets you!" Lu Yuan knelt down and kowtowed.
The man on the dragon throne closed his eyes slightly and said nothing.
After a moment, his slow and majestic voice came out: "Get up!"
Lu Yuanying stood up.
Lu Yuan looked up and saw the man sitting on the dragon throne.
Emperor Sheng's hair turned white, and it was obvious that he had experienced a great blow.
The death of the crown prince had a significant impact on Emperor Sheng.
At this time, Emperor Sheng had a gloomy face and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a long time.
He then asked, "My dear, why did you suddenly come to see me?"
Although Lu Yuan is young, Emperor Sheng still values Lu Yuan very much.
Lu Yuan was silent for a while, then replied, "Your Majesty, I recently received a piece of news that the Blood Witch's Immortal Spring is actually a martial arts book. This nameless martial arts book is the Blood Witch's martial arts, so I came here specially to present this nameless martial arts book to Your Majesty."
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, a strange light flashed in Emperor Sheng's eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Yuan took out the nameless secret book and presented it to Emperor Sheng.
As Emperor Sheng stroked the pages of the secret book, his expression became more and more excited.
This... is indeed the unique skill of the Blood Witch!
The Blood Witch's skills are made from human skin and are very special, no one can imitate them.
"Okay! Okay! Haha..."
Emperor Sheng laughed wildly, obviously very excited.
The Blood Witch is a well-known demon in the martial arts world, and her martial arts are extremely strange. If one can successfully practice the Blood Witch's martial arts, he will surely be able to regain youth. He is really fed up with this old body!
"Lu Yuan, you did a great job. You have made a great contribution this time! I will reward you with 100 taels of gold and 1,000 pieces of silk and satin. In addition, I will also appoint you as a third-rank official!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan immediately knelt down to express his gratitude.
Lu Yuan didn't expect that Emperor Sheng would be so out of control after obtaining the martial arts.
It seems that Emperor Sheng really wants to live forever.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan secretly hated it in his heart, but he remained respectful on the surface.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Lu Yuan, now that I have found the Blood Witch's skills, are you sure you can master them?"
"Your Majesty, this skill can only be practiced by women. If a man practices it, he may go astray." Lu Yuan said.
Emperor Sheng frowned: "If that's the case, will I never be able to learn it?"
Lu Yuan sighed: "Your Majesty, although I know this technique by heart, I have never practiced it, so I am afraid I can't help you."
"Alas..." Emperor Sheng sighed deeply, his face full of regret, "Forget it, let's put this matter aside for now! Lu Yuan, this time thanks to your help, otherwise how could I find the trace of the blood witch's skills so quickly!"
Lu Yuan said modestly: "It is my humble servant's honor to be able to help your majesty share his worries and relieve his burdens."
Emperor Sheng was very pleased to hear Lu Yuan's words.
Afterwards, Emperor Sheng ordered, "Lu Yuan, please leave first. You have handled this matter very well. I will reward you according to your merits."
"Wei Chen takes his leave."
Lu Yuan left the imperial study.
After Lu Yuan left, a guard who had been hiding in the corner suddenly jumped out.
"Subordinates, please see your master."
Emperor Sheng glanced at the man indifferently.
"Well, you continue to monitor."
"As you command." The man clasped his fists and hid himself again.
After that person left, Emperor Sheng raised his lips into a faint smile.
He had just learned that Xu Qiuyue had returned, and Lu Yuan presented the martial arts technique to him so quickly.
It seems that Lu Yuan is still loyal to him. Emperor Sheng ordered the eunuch beside him: "Go and summon the high priest to come here quickly."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
……
In the capital of Shengguo, in a courtyard on the west side of the capital, various flowers are planted around it.
The flowers are gorgeous and the breeze brings with it the fragrance.
She is dressed in a fiery red dress, enchanting and charming.
The woman in red sat in the pavilion drinking tea.
"Boom-"
The sudden knock on the door caused the cup in the red-dressed woman's hand to shake a few times, and the water almost spilled out.
The woman in red raised her eyebrows and said lazily, "Who?"
"Your Highness the High Priest, I am here to invite you into the palace in compliance with His Majesty's order." The eunuch's voice came from outside the door.
Hearing this, the red-dressed woman's mouth curled up slightly.
It seems that His Majesty can no longer hold back.
The woman in red put down the cup and said, "Okay, wait a moment, I'll be right there."
"Yes, master."
……
After about an incense stick of time, the woman in red arrived at the Sheng Kingdom Palace.
When the woman in red stepped into the palace, a cold light shot from her beautiful eyes towards the young eunuch waiting beside her.
"Lead the way." The woman in red said calmly.
The young eunuch was shocked, lowered his head and said in a trembling voice: "High Priest, please follow me."
The woman in red followed the young eunuch inside.
Soon, the young eunuch stopped and said, "High Priest, His Majesty is inside, please go in."
After saying this, the young eunuch turned around and fled in a hurry.
Seeing this, the woman in red sneered and walked in through the door.
A scent of sandalwood wafts into the air.
What came into view was a carved nanmu bed, on which lay an old man with grey hair and a haggard face.
"You all get out."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After everyone left, the old man on the carved nanmu bed opened his eyes and looked at the woman in red standing at the door.
"Ahhong, you're here." Emperor Sheng showed a kind smile and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Your Majesty, you asked me to come here regarding the Blood Witch's Immortal Fountain?" the red-dressed woman said slowly, her expression cold and icy.
Emperor Sheng handed the nameless technique in his hand to the woman in red and said to her: "Ah Hong, you are my high priestess, take a look and see if this is the unique technique of the Blood Witch."
The woman in red took it, glanced at the characters, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, this is indeed the blood witch's skill. After so many years, we finally have hope of cracking the mystery of the Immortal Fountain!" said the woman in red happily.
"Ah Hong, you should practice in seclusion as soon as possible and refine the elixir that can restore youth as soon as possible. My body can't wait too long."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Ah Hong will prepare it now!"
"it is good."
After saying that, the woman in red walked towards the inner room with the Blood Witch's unique skills.
As he watched the figure of the woman in red gradually disappear from his sight, a complex look flashed across Emperor Sheng's eyes.
Over the years, he has been looking for a way to crack the Fountain of Immortality.
Originally he thought that he would be able to develop the elixir with his strength.
Who would have thought that after so many years there would be no results.
Therefore, he must refine the elixir that can restore youth as soon as possible.
As for Lu Yuan... Emperor Sheng had no intention of touching him at all. However, he had to find an opportunity to test whether Xu Qiuyue knew the Blood Witch's Fountain of Immortality. All eggs should not be put in one basket.
If the high priest fails to refine the fountain of immortality, then Xu Qiuyue will still be needed.
