Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 544: Falling out of favor

Views:

The Queen Mother was a wonderful person that day, dignified and generous. She invited Su Yun and others to take a seat, and did not look down on them at all because of their status. Song Ming and Lang Yun both had seats, and even Yingying had a small seat!

Yingying used to sit on Su Yun's shoulder, or fly around Su Yun, and sometimes she would land on the table to drink tea or wine. This was the first time she was treated with such courtesy, and she couldn't help but be solemn, sitting upright and not looking away.

Shui Yinghui also had a seat. After serving tea, she bowed and said, "My Lady, my master told me when I came here that if I was in trouble in the lower world, I should come to you for help. Your Majesty would certainly respond to my request out of consideration for our past friendship."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "I am not a yes-man. I will not agree to any request. But since Your Majesty has asked, I will naturally consider it."

She neither agreed nor refused, and said to Su Yun: "So, the master of the imperial court came here to collect rent?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Su Yun smiled and said, "I am the master of the imperial court. Although I rule this place, I dare not collect rent from the queen. I was previously grateful to the queen for giving me the elixir to heal my injuries. How dare I expect rent?"

The Queen couldn't help laughing and said, "The Master of the Imperial Court is an interesting person, and also a very daring person. No wonder he dared to occupy this ominous place, the Imperial Court. Since you are the Master of the Imperial Court, then I would like to ask you, do you know a young man named Dong?"

Su Yun's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Who is the young man named Dong that the queen is talking about?"

The Queen's eyes were filled with a trace of reverie, as if she was recalling the past, and she said, "That young man named Dong is full of vigor and spirit. His eyes are deep and attractive. He is curious about everything and has a strong curiosity to explore all the unknown. He is handsome, as good as you, and his conversation is very humorous. When you are with him, you can't feel the passage of time. You only regret that the years are too short and the marriage is too shallow."

When she said this, Su Yun immediately knew that she was the old God King of the Dong family, the man with an unbearable curiosity.

The old God King eventually died at the hands of the Evil Emperor's corpse because of his excessive curiosity.

However, the old God King's life was indeed wonderful.

"I have heard of this young man named Dong that the Empress mentioned. He has many legendary stories."

Su Yun told the story leisurely, narrating a series of legendary experiences of the old God King after he left the rear court.

Su Yun has been practicing the ancient sages' unique skills since he was young. He has excellent writing skills and elegant conversation. The experiences of the old God King he described in his conversation are so vivid that they seem to be happening right before your eyes.

He told the Queen of Heaven and others the story of how the old God King came into contact with Yuan Shuo, explored the mysteries of Tianshiyuan with Yinglong, solved the puzzle of Huantian, revealed the secrets of the hanging coffins, and finally died at the hands of the emperor's corpse.

He talked about how the old God King was buried, leaving behind a child. The Eight Heavenly Generals rebelled and massacred the God King's lineage. The child managed to escape and wandered into the world, where he witnessed the dangers of the world.

The Queen couldn't help but have red eyes and asked, "How is the child?"

Su Yun said: "He drifted to a foreign land, suffered a lot, and made many friends. But those friends were different from him. His friends grew old quickly, while he was still a teenager. He saw that he was different from others and felt lonely, so he studied medicine and tried to find people of the same clan as him. However, he searched for one or two hundred years and never found anyone with the same blood as him."

The Queen Mother finally shed tears, stood up, opened her arms, and choked up, saying, "My son, stop talking, come to me! I won't let you suffer anymore!"

Su Yun was stunned and quickly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty has misunderstood. I am not your son. The lonely person I am talking about is my friend Dong Feng, the Divine King."

The Queen Mother wiped her tears quickly, burst into laughter, and said, "I was distracted and didn't realize that the master of the imperial court was talking about someone else. I saw that your appearance was comparable to Dong Lang, so I thought you were Dong Lang's son, and that's why I misunderstood."

Su Yun said: "My surname is Su, and my given name is Yun. Your Majesty, you can call me Su Yun, or Xiao Yun, or Yun'er."

Shui Yinghui secretly thought that something was wrong: "Su the thief intends to use Dong Feng's relationship to get closer to the Queen Mother."

"My dear friend Su." said the Queen Mother of Heaven.

Su Yun responded with some disappointment.

Shui Yinghui finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "The Queen Mother of Heaven really didn't do what Su the thief wanted."

Su Yun said: "Since the queen misses your son, why don't you move out and live in Tianshiyuan, so that mother and son can see each other every day?"

Shui Yinghui's heart tightened: "Su thief is going to do something bad again!"

The Queen said, "I am bound by my oath and cannot leave the palace."

Shui Yinghui breathed a sigh of relief, and Su Yun smiled and said, "If that's the case, then I will come to visit you often with God King Dong. Our two families are neighbors, so we should visit each other more often."

The Queen was surprised and delighted, and said, "Thank you, little friend Su."

Su Yun said, "Your Majesty, just call me Xiao Yun. I am your junior. I originally studied medicine under the tutelage of Divine King Dong, and I always called him Master. Later, I became the Great Emperor of Tianshiyuan, and he came to my side to be the Divine King. We are friends for life."

Shui Yinghui knew something was wrong, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you don't know that the master of the imperial court has a very close relationship with your Majesty. The master of the imperial court is also the special envoy of the Immortal Emperor of the previous dynasty!"

The Queen originally had no intention of getting close to Su Yun, but her expression changed slightly when she heard this.

Shui Yinghui smiled and said, "The reason why Emperor Su came out this time is to contact his old ministers and prepare to start an uprising in the lower world, overthrow the current dynasty, and assist the old emperor!"

The smile on the Queen's face gradually faded, and Su Yun's heart skipped a beat: "Could it be that the Queen and the Evil Emperor don't get along?"

"The old emperor's body turned into a corpse demon, and his spirit escaped from the underworld. Rumor has it that there is a mastermind behind this."

Shui Yinghui continued, "Your Majesty lives in seclusion here, so you probably don't know about these things yet? I also heard that the old emperor's heart escaped and turned into the Emperor's Heart, walking in the human world. And the one who rescued this Emperor's Heart was Emperor Su!"

The Queen's expression gradually turned cold, and she asked, "Has the Holy Emperor Su ever done such a thing?"

Su Yun said carefully: "This matter has nothing to do with me. When I came to Tianchuan Cave Heaven, Emperor Xin had already escaped. Later, Emperor Xin saw his original body and made a scene in the fairy world. He wanted to merge with it but failed. His obsession broke out, so he gained a spirit..."

Shui Yinghui smiled and said, "The Holy Emperor Su and Di Xin have become good friends. He treated his fatal injury. Just now, when the Holy Emperor Su was in danger, Di Xin risked his life to save him. It was very touching."

Su Yun had a smile on his face, but his eyes were gloomy and cold as he swept across Shui Yinghui's face.

Shui Yinghui smiled, as if she felt nothing, and said: "Emperor Su is also very good friends with Immortal Wu..."

The Queen had been patient, but when she heard this, she could no longer bear it and shouted, "How dare you be friends with that bitch Wu Xian? It shows that the master of the imperial court is not careful in choosing friends!"

She used to call Su Yun Xiao Yun, but now she directly called him Master of the Imperial Court.

Su Yun had a smile on his face, but his teeth were chattering.

The Queen Mother looked at him with a bit more contempt, obviously thinking that since he had a friendship with Wu Xianren, he must be in cahoots with Wu Xianren and be just as despicable.

The palace maids around the Queen Mother also showed contempt, without concealing it.

"How bad is the immortal item of Wuxianren?" Su Yun couldn't help but feel a headache.

Song Ming and Lang Yun were terrified. They dared not drink tea or eat snacks. They were very nervous, fearing that the Queen Mother would suddenly give an order and the executioners would rush out and chop them into mud.

Only Yingying was at ease, and she only cared about eating and drinking, tasting the fairy tea, and eating the fragrant cakes with the fairy runes, and she didn't pay attention to the outside world. - She was very interested in those small fragrant cakes with the fairy runes, and she would savor them for a long time after eating each one.

Shui Yinghui smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I am here mainly to follow orders and investigate the case committed by Emperor Su, and also to investigate the case of Emperor Xin's escape. I have an unwelcome request."

The Queen Mother said calmly, "Go ahead."

Shui Yinghui's eyes flickered and fell on Su Yun, and she smiled and said, "There must be a battle between me and Su the Emperor. Along the way, either I was not in good condition or Su the Emperor's waist was broken, so it was difficult for us to have a real fight. Therefore, I beg you to borrow the Queen's precious land so that I can continue this fateful battle with Su the Emperor."

The Queen Mother said, "This matter is simple, you can decide for yourselves. I cannot interfere, but I can lend you the venue."

Shui Yinghui breathed a sigh of relief and stood up to express her gratitude.

The Queen Mother stood up and said calmly, "I am a little tired, so I will not accompany you for dinner. Let's go."

A group of palace maids came forward and embraced her. The Queen Mother did not even look at Su Yun again, which made Song Ming and Lang Yun even more uneasy: "Emperor Su has fallen out of favor, what should we do?"

At this time, Yingying put down the fairy tea, flew up, and said crisply: "My queen, let me tell you some interesting stories about the God King Dong Feng!"

The Queen Mother of Heaven stopped immediately, and seeing how adorable she was, she waved and said with a smile, "Then if you want to say more, I will reward you."

Yingying smiled and said, "There are so many interesting things about God King Dong Feng that I can't finish talking about them even if I talk about them for three days and three nights. Madam, I will tell you slowly..."

They gradually went away.

Su Yun continued to drink tea and eat snacks, smiling and said, "Brother Song, Brother Lang, continue to eat and drink. The meals in the back court are very exquisite and the taste is excellent. Where can you get this opportunity on weekdays?"

Song Ming and Lang Yun were in the mood to taste the food. The moment they took a sip, they felt as if 13,000 taste buds on their tongues were opened. The rich and layered flavors satisfied every taste bud and moved them to tears!

Shui Yinghui was alone, sitting opposite them, and said leisurely: "You have a sword move that actually broke the sword move taught to me by His Majesty the Immortal Emperor, which shows that you are extraordinary. Although you broke the move, you can't break the technique. You took great pains to break the move, but it is of no use against my Immortal Profound Art Second Profound."

Su Yun put down the teacup and said calmly, "I spent ten days learning the sword art, and one month cracking the sword art of the Emperor Sword. Now, my waist has healed, and I can devote myself to the study of the technique. How do you know that I can't crack the Immortal Mysterious Art?"

Shui Yinghui chuckled, stood up and walked out: "If your waist is not healed, you can still calm down and think about how to crack it. Regardless of whether you can crack it successfully or not, your talent will pose a threat to me. But now that your waist is healed, I even worry about whether your body can hold on."

She walked out of Weiyang Palace and said leisurely, "I need to recuperate for ten days, so I'll give you ten days. After ten days, if you haven't died at the hands of a woman, I'll fight you and send you off!"

Lang Yun slammed the table and said angrily: "You look down on my Holy Emperor foster father? What about women? If you have the ability, come to me, don't embarrass my foster father!"

Shui Ying turned back and rolled her eyes at him: "It is precisely because of you being around that your godfather is so outstanding."

Lang Yun was extremely embarrassed.

Su Yun touched his face in dismay and murmured, "I just want to make a living based on my own strength. Why did God make me so handsome? I would rather not have this peerless beauty..."

Upon hearing this, Song Ming drew out his magic sword with a swish.

Lang Yun also drew out the broken sword with a clang. The two men stared at him unkindly, like wounded old wolves.

"If the Holy Emperor doesn't want this face, I can do it for him and cut it..." Song Ming said in a trembling voice.

Su Yun sat upright with a solemn expression, and said, "This is the Queen Mother's Weiyang Palace, you must not be rude. After dinner, you will guard the law for me. I need to concentrate my mind and think about whether there is any room for improvement in my skills and magical powers, so that I can deal with Shui Yinghui's immortal skills."

Song Ming and Lang Yun's eyes lit up and they nodded quickly, thinking, "This is the Kingdom of Daughters of the Imperial Court. No men have been here for thousands of years, so there will definitely be fairies attracted here. The Holy Emperor is not free, but we are free, so we can create a good story!"
