Chapter 559 - 559 Meeting the Princess Again
559 Meeting the Princess Again
The green grass broke out of the ground and grew with the wind. The vines were like green dragons that lashed toward the skeleton.
“Eighth Prince? Who is the Eighth Prince? Let’s talk about it he finds us. Tsk tsk tsk!”
The skull let out a sharp laugh. It bit the vine and was about to swallow the green light.
At this moment, the flying sword tore through the air and split the skeleton into two.
“Who is it?” Not far away, a cry of surprise could be heard. The flying sword seemed to have a mind of its own as it followed the sound and flew towards that place, scaring the person in the dark out of sight.
Seeing that someone was helping, the green light dispersed, revealing the figure of a rather heroic woman. This woman was Princess Ye Chan, whom he had met once before.
“Who is it that is helping us? I was extremely grateful. So it’s you, rude boy. I can’t thank you enough for your kindness. I’ll let bygones be bygones for my rudeness last time.” Ye Chan looked at the carriage below and was stunned when she saw He Chuan.
After saying that, he flew to the front of the carriage.
“Thank you for your magnanimity, Princess.” Qie Lan was about to get angry when He Chuan got off the carriage and said.
During the last examination, someone said the daughter of Zhongyi King had also come to participate in the imperial examination. He knew it must be the girl in front of him who was neither male nor female.
“Where are you going?” Ye Chan sized up the group of people and asked in puzzlement.
“I’m going to Guanlang County.” He Chuan did not want to have a conflict with the other party. After all, the Zhongyi King was not to be trifled with.
“So you’re the magistrate. I have wealth for you. Do you want it?” The princess rolled her eyes and beckoned He Chuan over.
“Princess, please speak. He Chuan’s Lunar Mirror should be the Green Emperor Treasure Book the skull had mentioned just now.
The Green Emperor’s surname was Ye, and Ye Chan was from the Green Emperor’s bloodline.
“Guanlang County is quite big. Help me pay attention to something. Every time there is a full moon, there will be great benefits if you find the place where the Green Dragon appears.” Ye Chan had disappeared, and the emperor and nobles were high and mighty. They did not need to be polite to a dilapidated family like the Lin family. They just needed to give orders.
This was the habit of thinking for ten thousand years unless the other party wanted to rebel.
However, it was impossible for the candidates to enter the system and rebel.
“Old Master, she’s just a native princess. There’s no need to be polite with her.” QieLan was very unhappy.
Even the Emperor of the Dark Zone had to obey her.
“The Yan Country is different from the ordinary mortal empires. This woman is still useful for now.”
“I’m that kind of person.” He Chuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to see what the Green Emperor’s Treasure Book was. If it could attract the Eighth Prince and the others, he might be able to take advantage of it.
The group finally arrived at the county town.
This place had fallen, and most of the city walls had collapsed. There were no soldiers guarding the gate, and there were beggars and refugees everywhere.
Almost all the rich and powerful people had moved away, leaving only the poor.
Guanlang County was called a county because it had a small population. It only had one city and the surrounding towns.
Now that they had experienced a few robberies, they were already in ruins, and only a few soldiers and officials remained.
He Chuan waved his hand, and more than a hundred tall and ferocious martial artists flew out from the Beiyin Mountain.
“Qiu Guan, go get some Dao soldiers and martial artists to maintain order. I’ll give you three days to repair the city wall.”
“Qie Lan will be the chief priest and will be responsible for building the Green Emperor Temple, providing porridge to the people, and also building three empty temples.”
A green official can create three temples of his own.
Usually, it was their ancestors or themselves.
The latter was convenient for cultivation, and there were also unconventional sacrificial magic treasures.
The people of this world were already used to it. They would burn incense and worship before and after each month.
Of course, most of them were paid, and they could get a few dozen copper coins or some food.
Some wealthy places would even treat patients for free. If the people sincerely worshipped, the quality of their faith would be higher.
This was a win-win situation.
After half a month of preparation, He Chuan took some time to return to Great Instant Star and brought the Green-rank Position for Yang Kang to study.
Finally, Yang Kang understood.
In the secret chamber.
He Chuan opened his right palm, and a green talisman phantom appeared in his palm.
This rune was more complicated than the white one, and it was very mysterious.
Runes appeared on the green space, like patches on tattered clothes.
In his hand was the broken level.
The upper limit of the pale Green-rank was Celestial Cultivator, and there would be no more restrictions. Moreover, half of the absorption of faith would no longer automatically be given to the Green Emperor.
More importantly, he could absorb the faith of other ancestral temples and clans at will without the need to use the Lifeless Mystic Technique to convert it.
For example, Great Yan’s status was equivalent to that of a proper official. They received their salaries on time, had bonuses, and had additional income.
However, there was a limit to all these. Although it was stable, it would not make a fortune, nor would it have any additional income.
The level would limit one’s cultivation unless one broke through the level limit. However, most people would never have such luck in their entire lives.
On the other hand, the people of the Myriad Immortals Archipelago were thieves. They had no idea what to eat. If they were lucky, they would make a fortune. If they were unlucky, they would have nothing to eat.
He Chuan was a legal robber and could expand without restraint. He did not have to be restricted by his level.
The construction of the city had been completed. In addition to the good deeds they had done during this period of time, as well as the attacks on the surrounding bandits, most of the people in Guanlang were loyal.
He Chuan planned to send people from Wu Country over in batches. As for how to use the temple, he was still considering it. The Lin family ancestral temple would definitely not be built.
During this period, He Chuan sent ghosts and gods to search for the so-called Green Dragon.
“Milord, there is indeed a Green Dragon here.” Finally, Ghost Deity came to report excitedly.
“What?” The man next to He Chuan was a little surprised.
The man looked older, with fair skin and no calluses on his hands. He was obviously a person who lived like a prince.
“Where is it?” Dai Quan asked. This person’s voice was sharp, one could tell that he was from the palace.
“Milord, at the foot of Ox-Head Mountain in the north, whenever the moonlight shines, the cold pond at the foot of the mountain reflects the moonlight, and the fog in the forest is the image of the Green Dragon.” The subordinate glanced at He Chuan and was allowed to continue explaining.
“I see. No wonder I couldn’t find it even after sending people to search the sea. It’s actually so illusory. I’ll send someone to confirm it.”
“Lord Lin has done well. When I go back and report to the Eighth Prince, you will definitely be rewarded generously.” Eunuch Dai Quan looked at He Chuan with approval.
“Thank you, Lord Dai. I hope Lord Dai will put in a good word for me when you go back.” He Chuan’s fawning appearance made Qie Lan and the others call him an expert. They didn’t know if they thought He Chuan was a fawning villain in the officialdom.
Dai Quan didn’t comment, but he was somewhat satisfied with the other party’s understanding.
After the eunuch left with the people, He Chuan returned to normal.
The Green Dragon Form, the Green Emperor’s Treasure Book, something that could attract the covetous eyes of the current princes, it must not be an extraordinary item.
He Chuan thought to himself.
In fact, he had already discovered it during the last full moon night. When he went to look, it was just an ordinary natural phenomenon. He could not find any secrets.
Therefore, he revealed the news to the eunuchs who came to look for him a few days ago.
The Eighth Prince was a popular candidate to be the next emperor. His cultivation base was Immortal Venerable and his Black Emperor Fist had made him famous.
There must be something special about what the other party was after.
That was why he had acted like he was trying to curry favor with the powerful.
