Chapter 712: 706
"You... you really are crazy!"
"Yes, I am crazy!" Tears streamed down Chu Xuan’s face even more, "Imperial Father, I beg you, please save Su Chen’s child! That child is innocent!"
"Xuan’er, it’s not that I don’t want to save them, but once the Xuanfeng Imperial Family tries to save them, it will involve a lot, do you know how many major forces are eyeing that child? The Wanlong Dynasty Royal Family, Xuanwu Academy, the Mei Family of the Wanlong Dynasty, and many more that are at least First-Rank Powers. Even if the Xuanfeng Imperial Family uses all its strength to protect that woman named Gu Yuan, it won’t have any effect!"
"Imperial Father, I beg you!!!" Chu Xuan fell silent, then after a dozen breaths, she suddenly knelt down on the ground, bowing her head again and again and again!
Bang bang bang...
The sound of Chu Xuan’s bowing was very heavy, the stone floor echoing the noise, and her forehead quickly became covered with fresh blood.
"Xuan’er..." Consort Yun’s face changed drastically, full of heartache.
The Xuanfeng Emperor was also greatly moved, in deep distress, "Xuan’er, you’re really forcing your Imperial Father!"
"Imperial Father, allow your daughter to be selfish this once, I know that involving the Xuanfeng Imperial Family might endanger it, but I truly... truly..." Chu Xuan’s beautiful face bore a mix of blood and tears.
"Xuan’er, your Imperial Father agrees!" The Xuanfeng Emperor took a deep breath, ultimately agreeing, "Get up, Xuan’er!"
"Thank you, Imperial Father!" Chu Xuan stood up.
"Xuan’er, have you really thought this through?" Consort Yun reminded her gravely, "Going to save Gu Yuan this time, it’s not just the Xuanfeng Imperial Family that will be in danger, but most importantly, your reputation will be at stake. From now on, you will be marked as the woman of Su Chen, even if Su Chen has passed away."
"I am his woman, even if he’s dead, I won’t marry anyone else," Chu Xuan said firmly, to have touched a man’s heart in life is enough; she had no regrets. If she could not see Su Chen again in this lifetime, then let the ’Xuan’ character necklace accompany her for the rest of her life!
"First, let’s ally with the Leiming Sect and the Holy Spirit Academy!" the Xuanfeng Emperor said gravely, with some composure, "Right now, those forces and strong individuals eyeing the situation have come together under the pretext of getting rid of a monster. Relying solely on the Xuanfeng Imperial Family, we won’t be able to stop them!"
"Get rid of a monster?" Chu Xuan bit her lip, her face turning pale with anger.
"Hmph, using the pretext that Su Chen’s child has not been born after a year and a half to categorize the child as a monster," the Xuanfeng Emperor snorted, "It’s just a guise! Hundreds of millions of years ago, our old ancestors also stayed in the womb for a year and five months, born able to walk, and entered the Noble Realm at the age of three. You can never wake those who are pretending to sleep."
At the same time.
Leiming Sect.
"Su Chen, have you really passed away? No! Qing Wu doesn’t believe it!!!" Dressed in white, Mo Qingwu stood there, her complexion cold, pale, yet determined, "Your child, I will lead the people of the Leiming Sect to protect, until the day you return!"
Holy Spirit Academy.
In front of Chu Hongding and Chen Jianqiong stood two other middle-aged men, one named Song Zhengwei and the other Xuu Taotian. Song Zhengwei was the head of the Ascending Dragon Court, while Xuu Taotian was the head of the True Dragon Court.
"You both should know why we’re here, right?" Chu Hongding said sternly.
"If Su Chen is still alive, then I am willing to bet the entire Ascending Dragon Court, for showing kindness is worthwhile to secure Su Chen’s friendship, for both the Holy Spirit Academy and the Ascending Dragon Court. But, is Su Chen still alive?" said Song Zhengwei somberly.
"Old Song, even if Su Chen has passed away, do you see how much fame he has made in the Xuanfeng Dynasty these past three months? He represents the Holy Spirit Academy! He was a student of the Holy Spirit Academy! The most monstrous student in the history of the Holy Spirit Academy!" Chu Hongding became anxious.
"But the forces that want to get Su Chen’s child are too strong! Just one Wanlong Dynasty’s Royal Family is..." Xu Taotian also spoke up, his expression filled with helplessness and gravity, "If Holy Spirit Academy gets involved, should we fail, the retribution from the Wanlong Dynasty might destroy the whole academy in an instant."
"High-stakes gamble!!!" Chen Jianqiong pronounced each word deliberately, "To gain benefits, one must take huge risks! Who is Su Chen? He is a monster of the Eternal Ages! A being who, at the age of twenty-three, could instantly kill all of us! As long as he lives, in the future, he will be a giant in both the Dome Extreme Realm and even above that realm! He will undoubtedly enter the Buddha Domain! Given Su Chen’s character of valuing affection and loyalty, as long as he lives, our timely help will surely bring us thousands upon thousands of times the reward."
Chen Jianqiong knew it would be hard to persuade Song Zhengwei and Xu Taotian with just emotions, so he tempted them with interests.
"What if we bet and lose?" Xu Taotian countered.
"That’s why it’s a high-stakes gamble. If we win, I can believe that within the next hundred years, Holy Spirit Academy could surpass Xuaanwu Academy, Fei Ming Academy, and Great Cang Academy just by having Su Chen. If we lose, at worst, Holy Spirit Academy turns to void. We start from scratch. Life is seldom blessed with the chance to take such risks, let alone such an opportunity," Chen Jianqiong said each word deliberately, his words striking like a bell.
Xu Taotian and Song Zhengwei fell silent for a moment and then, finally, the two exchanged a glance, their eyes lighting up as they nodded firmly.
In that very second, a Spirit Messenger Pigeon suddenly flew in, landing on Xu Taotian’s shoulder.
A Spirit Messenger Pigeon from the Xuanfeng Imperial Family!
The four of them slightly changed their expressions. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Quick, take a look..." Chu Hongding said anxiously, knowing that a message from the Royal Family at this time must be about Su Chen.
Xu Taotian opened the spiritual message and then, the serious expression on his face slightly relaxed, replaced by relief, "The Xuanfeng Imperial Family has made the same choice as we have!"
"Great! Great!! Great!!!" Chen Jianqiong exclaimed with joy, "With the involvement of the Xuanfeng Imperial Family, the chances of success have greatly increased!"
The Royal Family’s strength is very, very strong, at the very least, much stronger than Holy Spirit Academy.
The joining of the Xuanfeng Imperial Family is like a reassuring pill.
"We mustn’t delay, send a reply with the Spirit Messenger Pigeon!" Chu Hongding urged immediately.

Dressed in a black robe, Su Chen returned to Xuanfeng Imperial City.
He was still unaware of the events concerning Gu Yuan and his child.
He headed straight for the largest Herbal Pavilion in Xuanfeng Imperial City, a Herb Shop named ’Ling Pavilion’, which specialized in the trading of herbs.
Upon entering the Ling Pavilion, Su Chen first smelled the extremely dense aroma of a mixture of herbs, at least tens of thousands, possibly hundreds of thousands of different kinds!
The whole Ling Pavilion was as large as half a football field, filled entirely with Spirit Grass, of course, some of the precious herbs were covered by Crystal Barriers.
Inside the Ling Pavilion, there were around three hundred saleswomen.
"My lord, may I know what you require?" A woman approached the next second, smiling as she said, "My name is Little Qing."
