‘You can rest assured about this. After that, I’ll help him ascend to the throne and ensure that he’ll live for 20 years without worry. As for the rest, it’ll depend on him and you.” He Qingge was calm.

In the Fire Kingdom, the Tian Xuan Sect held the highest position.

Under normal circumstances, they would send an outer sect errand boy in the late-stage or peak-stage Qi Refinement cultivator to be stationed here.

He Qingge could have the disciples stationed here temporarily take charge of the Fire Kingdom.

Their status and strength were all qualified, so no one would raise any objections.

“As long as he’s safe and sound, it doesn’t matter if he’s the emperor or not,” Luo Qiuci said.

“Then why don’t you ask your brother what he thinks? Don’t you want to ask him if he wants to be the emperor?” He Qingge smiled.

“I feel that if he wants to become the emperor, it’ll definitely not be very safe. There will be many dangers.” Luo Qiuci shook her head.

“Exalted Immortals, Luo Chen requests an audience!”

Luo Qiuci’s younger brother was Luo Chen.

“May I know what instructions you’ve given, Exalted Immortals?” Luo Chen looked at the people in the room and the tears on his sister’s face.

He Qingge said with interest, “We plan to take your sister away from here. The empress has already disappeared. Or rather, she’s not your mother. She’s just someone else in disguise.

“Now I leave you with a choice. Do you want to inherit the throne and become the emperor, or do you want to be free and unaffiliated?”

If it was anyone else, He Qingge would not have given them so many choices.

However, Luo Chen was different. He had a crippled spiritual root.

The old sect master of the Tian Xuan Sect had clearly ordered that people with zero purity spiritual roots were prohibited from entering the sect.

He Qingge was slightly interested.

“Make your own choice. Look straight into your heart.”

Luo Chen was a little confused. He thought for a long time and gritted his teeth. “I want to become the new emperor.”

“Oh, why do you want to be the emperor?” He Qingge’s eyes narrowed.

“After I become the emperor, I’ll stay here so that Sister can come back and find me.

“If I go out on my own… This world is as vast as the sea. Sister might not be able to find me when she comes back.”

Luo Qiuci’s tears instantly fell.

“I didn’t expect the two of you to have such a good relationship. In that case, I’ll fulfill your wish.” He Qingge smiled.

He brought the two children to the Tian Xuan Sect’s camp in the Fire Kingdom. With the token in his hand, he met Huang Yi, who was stationed there.

“Warden Huang!”

“I don’t deserve to be addressed that way. Just call me Lil Huang.” Huang Yi’s attitude was very humble.

He Qingge did not waste any more words. “He’s the prince of the Fire Kingdom. I want to push him to the throne. Protect his life for 20 years. As for the rest, don’t worry about it.

“These three bottles of Three Yuan Pills will be your reward!”

He Qingge was quite generous. After becoming a legacy disciple, he did not have to worry about food and clothing.

Of course, he also wanted to befriend Luo Qiuci in advance. No matter what, she had a heavenly spiritual root, so her cultivation speed would definitely be faster than his. Perhaps she would surpass his cultivation in a few years.

No matter how one looked at it, he should cling to such a genius in advance!

“Three Yuan Pills!” Huang Yi’s hands trembled as he excitedly received the three bottles of pills. He carefully opened one and took a look, then sniffed the pills. His face was filled with intoxication.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Luo Qiuci knew that this old man named Huang Yi had a high status in the Fire Kingdom.

Even the previous prince regent and her father were cautious with this old man and did not dare to offend him.

Something that could be regarded as a treasure by such an old man would definitely not be bad.

She looked at He Qingge and remembered this scene. She would definitely repay him in the future.

“Leave this matter to me. I’ll definitely do it well.” Huang Yi patted his chest and smiled.

“You’ll follow him from now on,” He Qingge said to Luo Chen.

“Yes, Exalted Immortal.”

After they were done, He Qingge and the others left Imperial City with Luo Qiuci. They headed toward a place with abundant fire spiritual energy.

The first was naturally the fire elemental stone mine, which was how the Fire Kingdom got its name.

Fire elemental stones could be used to forge magic tools, divine weapons, and even array tools for some array formations.

He Qingge and the others were flying on their swords, but Lin Yan felt a little uncomfortable. He constantly urged the blood essence in his body to take steps and quickly chase after them on the ground.

He Qingge looked at Lin Yan from the sky. The Wisdom Scripture Divine Wheel in his mind shone as he constantly comprehended Lin Yan’s lightness skill. It was very mysterious.

After half a month, they arrived at their first destination.

Looking down from the sky, there was a dense crowd. Every person who came out of the mine had to be inspected.

The miners looked ragged. Most of them were ordinary people. They did not have any cultivation. They had not practiced martial arts or Qi.

The supervisor held a steel whip in his hand. If he encountered someone who was cheating and hiding ores, the person in question would immediately be covered in blood with a whip.

Human lives were worthless here. If someone died, another one would immediately replace them.

It was time to get off work in the evening, so everyone lined up to get their bodies checked.

He Qingge frowned. The efficiency of mining was too low, but he did not care much about it.

Similar to the Fire Kingdom, there was also a servant warden stationed here. He was at the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm.

They showed their token to the warden and said that they wanted to enter the mine to investigate.

The warden’s eyelids twitched slightly. Several disciples of the sect had come over these few days.

In his eyes, they were all important figures. They were all official disciples, and their cultivation levels were basically at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

“It’s too late now. It might be dangerous to go in.” The warden reminded them out of goodwill. He did not want anyone to have an accident in his territory. When the time came, he would definitely be held accountable.

“If there’s nothing else, just lead the way,” Su Zimei said.

The warden was helpless and could only lead them in.

The moment Lin Yan entered the mine, his eyes flashed with a fiery light. He felt that there was something in this mine that had a very close connection with him.

Lin Yan had the Innate Fire Spirit Body. The wisp of Innate Spirit Fire that was crippled had disappeared from the world.

“Lil Butterfly! ” He Qingge said.

The Sound-Gathering Butterfly instantly understood He Qingge’s meaning. It emitted a faint sound wave that constantly echoed in the mine, detecting everything in the mine.

Soon, a model of the mine appeared in He Qingge’s mind. There were various forks and various passages inside.

It could be said to be a scaled model of the entire fire elemental stone mine. The entire fire elemental stone mine had countless tiny secret holes.

There were many small holes and some demon beasts. They were not too strong, but their sudden attacks were hard to guard against. “Should we separate or together?” Lin Yan asked.

He Qingge’s eyes moved slightly.

They had not told Lin Yan what they were looking for.

If they split up, what would he go looking for?

The others communicated with each other through their divine senses regarding the Innate Spirit Fire.

There were obviously some problems with Lin Yan’s suggestion to search separately.

He Qingge nodded calmly. “Alright, then let’s each choose a passage!”

“Right, what are you looking for?” Lin Yan immediately became alert and hurriedly said.

Previously, he felt that there was something in the mine that was attractive to him, so he blurted out that he wanted to look for it himself. Now, he realized that he had made a mistake..
