The Crazy Princess Returns and Becomes the First Beast Tamer
Chapter 68: Beili Territory, No Inch of Land Will Be Given Up
Logically speaking, if the spirit beast dies, the cultivator will be severely injured and become like a mortal, unable to cultivate immortality anymore. Once the cultivator dies, the spirit beast will also die.
But this Qilin is alive and well.
It should have been able to exert powerful combat capabilities. The person who created it and everyone at Canghai Academy all thought so.
But no one could have expected that Di Yunli would kill Qingfeng in an instant. After Qingfeng died, the mythical beast Qilin, although not dead, seemed to have lost its soul in an instant, with empty eyes, just standing there, motionless.
"I wonder if I can report Canghai College for violating regulations?" Di Yunli looked towards the judging panel.
The people sitting in the judging seats were not from the four major academies, but representatives of their own forces invited by the four major academies from Gengshi Continent.
Gengshi Continent exists outside the four kingdoms. It occupies most of the entire Xiuxian Continent and is the real Xiuxian world.
There is no distinction between nations or factions, no mortals, only complicated sects or factions of other forces.
There are three people on the judges' panel now, representing the Yundan Pavilion, Tianfu Auction House, and Fuxian Academy.
Among them, Fuxian Academy is the superior level of the four major academies. Most of the students from the four major academies will be sent to Fuxian Academy. After entering Fuxian Academy, they will be considered to have stepped into the real world of cultivation.
After several representatives discussed, the representative of Yundan Pavilion spoke.
"This has never happened before, so we cannot determine whether it is against the rules. However, although the spirit beast was created, the relationship between it and the spirit beast is no different from that between ordinary cultivators and ordinary spirit beasts."
"So... after much discussion, we have determined that this behavior does not constitute a violation."
Di Yunli raised his eyebrows slightly and looked in the direction of Xicang Canghai College.
The dean of Canghai College sneered at her, as if mocking her for doing such a useless thing. The confidence in his eyes seemed to have known that no matter who had objections to this matter, they would not be able to make any waves.
It really is, an open and aboveboard protection.
Is it that Xicang has the ability to do this, or is the background of Canghai College so strong? Or... is there some interest relationship that she has not discovered yet?
Without waiting for Di Yunli to continue thinking, the host announced her victory again and signaled her to return to the waiting area of the Imperial Capital Academy to continue watching the battle.
And the Qilin was also recovered safely by Canghai College.
Di Yunli didn't watch the rest of the battle. Or rather, she was watching, but she was thinking about this matter in her mind.
That night.
"Knock down."
"Enter."
"Your Majesty, it feels like a long time since we last met. Do you miss me a little bit?" Xiao Bailian came in with another bouquet of flowers, but today's flowers were thorny, similar to a bouquet of roses.
The color of the petals is white with a hint of blood-red, which is very beautiful.
"Ah, Her Majesty the Empress is so serious? Is it because of the matter of the divine beast Qilin today?"
"Why do you want to cooperate with me?" Di Yunli didn't like to talk unnecessary nonsense.
"Of course it's because of Her Majesty the Empress..." Xiao Bailin wanted to say a teasing word, but was forced back by Di Yunli's eyes.
"Because I think that Your Majesty, whether in terms of your talent, your thunderous methods of governing the country, or your handling of the war between Xi Cang and Bei Li, you are the best choice for this prince to cooperate with."
"Your goal is just to become the emperor?"
If it was just because of this, it wouldn't be that difficult. As long as the mutual interests of the two countries were guaranteed, and some planning was done, coupled with Beili's insistence on supporting Xiao Bailan, this matter would be almost certain to succeed.
But she felt that Xiao Bailin's ambition was not entirely here. Otherwise, judging from the power he showed today, he did not need other forces to get involved at all, and he could erode the throne step by step by himself.
"Is there any wine?"
"Of course." Di Yunli waved his hand and took out the wine from the storage ring.
Xiao Bailin poured wine for himself and Di Yunli, "Your Majesty, can you drink?"
"You and I are both cultivators, we can't get drunk."
"Yeah, I can't get drunk." Xiao Bailian smiled as if mocking himself, took the wine jug and drank it upside down.
"I said, I am doing this for world peace, you won't believe me, right?"
If other people heard such words, they would definitely think Xiao Bailian was ridiculous, naive, and pretentious.
Everyone can talk big, but who really cares that the world is not peaceful? They just talk big and reap the power and benefits.
Xiao Bailin poured another sip of wine, "In fact, I, the third prince, am just the child of a commoner girl that my father had with him while he was traveling."
"When I was a child, I lived on the border between Nanyuan Continent and Donggu Continent. Frictions between the two countries often occurred in that place. Although my mother and I had a house to shelter from the wind and rain, we were bullied and pointed at all the time.
"I don't have a good job, and my mother has to take care of me, a burden. We often don't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes."
"Later, Nanyuan invaded that small border town. My mother was noticed by the Nanyuan general because of her good looks, and he wanted to abduct her." Having said this, Xiao Bailan took another sip of wine.
"Three pieces of gold."
"What?" Di Yunli was infected by Xiao Bailin's emotions and also felt depressed.
"My mother volunteered to be a plaything for those people in exchange for three pieces of gold. She told me my identity and asked me to go to the capital to find my father, so that I could survive."
After hearing these words, Di Yunli felt indescribable sadness and anger.
"Later, did you rescue your mother?"
Xiao Bailian smiled and said, "Any more wine?"
Di Yunli took out a few jars for him and let him drink.
"After I left, my mother fulfilled her last wish and committed suicide because she couldn't bear the humiliation. When I was able to come back, she had become a pile of dry bones in the mountains, thrown into a mass grave at random."
Xiao Bailian had a wry smile on his face, his eyes were red, but no tears fell.
"Whether my life in the palace was good or bad, or how I climbed to where I am now, it doesn't matter. What matters is that my second brother, the only person who treated me well, died in the border war with Nanyuan because of my eldest brother's scheme."
"From then on, I knew that I had no one to rely on in my life. Only power, supreme power, could allow me to live and live well."
"Only that supreme power can prevent more children from being displaced like me. It can prevent their mothers from being humiliated, abused, or even killed! They can't make the decision for themselves."
"Crack~"
Xiao Bailan smashed the wine jug, and tears in his eyes flowed down as he burst out in anger.
He wiped away his tears and said, "Your Majesty, I chose you only because of what you said."
"What?"
"I will not give up an inch of land in Beili. Anyone who tries to provoke a war between the nations and displace the civilians will be killed."
