A Private Summons? The Empress's Illegitimate Son?

Time slips away quietly.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

At this moment, in the square outside the Maple Leaf Dynasty's palace.

The Eldest Imperial Princess, along with their recruits, are already waiting in ambush.

Today, they will set off into the Secret Realm of the Hundred Dynasties War.

Chen Changqing followed Liu Ruyan to the square.

As soon as they arrived, many eyes turned to the two of them.

The Eldest Imperial Princess, in particular, looked at Chen Changqing with somewhat strange expressions.

Before this, they had all visited Liu Ruyan.

What he wanted, of course, was to meet Chen Changqing, the number one on the Azure Dragon Ranking.

Unfortunately, apart from the Eldest Imperial Princess Liu Shi, who met Chen Changqing, all the other princesses were stopped by Liu Ruyan on the grounds that Chen Changqing was in seclusion.

Seeing everyone's gazes, Chen Changqing remained calm and composed, and Liu Ruyan also didn't seem to care.

Besides, the aid brought by the Eldest Imperial Princess looked rather unfriendly when they saw Chen Changqing.

They were shocked when they learned of Chen Changqing's identity.

After all, that's the number one on the Azure Dragon Ranking.

But right now, the Hundred Dynasties War is about to begin.

Once they enter the Secret Realm, they will be Chen Changqing's opponents.

Furthermore, Eldest Imperial Princess seemed to have a strong liking for Chen Changqing.

This only intensified their hostility towards Chen Changqing.

"Junior brother, they seem to be full of hostility towards you."

Liu Ruyan said in a low voice.

Chen Changqing remained calm and smiled as he said:

"I'm just a Purple Mansion Realm cultivator."

"Their cultivation levels are at least at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, yet they're so hostile towards me. Isn't this bullying?"

"Pfft!"

Upon hearing Chen Changqing's words, Liu Ruyan was immediately amused.

Chen Changqing's "Purple Mansion Realm" certainly stood out among the crowd.

But he is the number one on the Azure Dragon Ranking in the Purple Mansion Realm.

Even at the Nascent Soul level, no one dares to underestimate him.

At this moment, a figure slowly walked out of the main hall of the palace; it was Empress Liuye.

Upon seeing the Empress appear, everyone bowed in respect:

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

"Greetings, Empress!"

Empress Liuye nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping over the crowd before she casually waved her hand.

"Swish..."

Immediately afterwards, one after another, number plates pulsating with strange energy fluctuations landed precisely in front of the crowd.

"These number plates are your identification in this Hundred Dynasties War."

"If it perishes, the license plate will also disappear."

"Remember this: In the Hundred Dynasties War, life and death are indisputable!"

As soon as Empress Liuye uttered these words, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became heavy.

Everyone knows that once the great war begins, life and death will depend entirely on one's own abilities.

The Eldest Imperial Princess all wore different expressions, while their External Aids behind them gripped their name tags tightly, their eyes blazing with fighting spirit.

The Hundred Dynasties War will be a true trial of life and death!

The victor is crowned with glory.

The defeated will be reduced to ashes!

Chen Changqing took the number plate that was floating in front of him, his expression showing little change.

Although his cultivation level was only at the Purple Mansion Realm.

But he is no ordinary Purple Mansion; he is on the Invincible Purple Mansion Path.

Of the nine Golden Core cores within his body, Golden Core have now successfully opened up to the Purple Mansion.

Only the Wood Purple Mansion among the Five Elements Purple Mansion has not yet been opened.

In addition, there are all sorts of incredible methods.

Even if he encountered Nascent Soul Late Stage, Chen Changqing was confident he could kill him.

The highest cultivation level allowed to enter this Hundred Dynasties War is the Nascent Soul Realm.

After taking her number plate, Liu Ruyan's beautiful eyes sparkled; success or failure would depend on the upcoming Hundred Dynasties War.

After everyone had collected their number plates, the Liu Ye woman glanced around and said again:

"One hour until the teleportation array opens."

You may make your final preparations yourselves.

Upon hearing this, the Eldest Imperial Princess nodded and prepared to leave with their hired help.

Just then, Empress Liuye's gaze sharpened and fell directly on Chen Changqing.

Chen Changqing.

"You will come with me!"

Upon hearing Empress Liuye's words, Chen Changqing was taken aback.

"Ah?"

He was somewhat bewildered, looking at Empress Liuye with a completely clueless expression.

At this moment, Empress Liuye turned and walked into the palace.

"What does the Empress want with me?"

Chen Changqing muttered to himself, not understanding what Empress Liuye meant.

After a moment's hesitation, he gave Liu Ruyan a wink before following closely behind.

At this moment, Eldest Imperial Princess present were shocked.

"This?"

What's going on?

"With the Hundred Dynasties War about to begin, why did the Empress Dowager summon Chen Changqing alone at this time?"

"Earlier, Mother had left Ninth Sister and Chen Changqing alone together."

"Could it be that the Empress Dowager and Chen Changqing have some kind of special relationship?"

"Isn't Chen Changqing a disciple of the Shu Mountain Sacred Land?"

"Before my mother ascended to the throne as Empress, she was also a disciple of Mount Shu."

"..."

For a moment, the Eldest Imperial Princess were secretly filled with doubt and surprise.

Indeed, the fact that Empress Liuye summoned Chen Changqing alone at this critical juncture easily leads to speculation.

Some even speculated that the princess herself had a different idea.

He wondered if Chen Changqing's child was the offspring of Empress Liuye and some powerful figure from Mount Shu.

Compared to the other princesses, Liu Ruyan appeared much more composed.

A few days ago, when Empress Liuye summoned her and Chen Changqing alone, she made that clear.

She was once a disciple of Mount Shu, and was even a fellow disciple of Chen Yuan Chen Changqing's master, Sect Master Chenyuan.

"Could it be because of Sect Master Chen Yuan?"

Liu Ruyan muttered something under her breath, not giving it much thought.

The details will be known when Chen Changqing returns.

At the same time, Chen Changqing followed Empress Liuye to a quiet side hall in the palace.

What's the Empress's situation?

"What is the purpose of summoning me alone at this time?"

"Isn't she worried that the other princesses might have wild ideas?"

In Chen Changqing's view, he was External Aids invited by the Ninth Imperial Princess Liu Ruyan.

Liu Ye met with him alone at this time.

This easily aroused suspicion among the other princesses.

I wonder if Empress Liuye might be showing favoritism here.

Just as Chen Changqing was lost in thought, Empress Liuye turned her gaze and looked directly at him.

Receiving the Empress's gaze, Chen Changqing snapped out of his reverie and smiled faintly:

"The Empress."

"Who are you looking for?"

Upon hearing this, Empress Liuye didn't keep her in suspense and said directly:

"I summoned you here privately because your master contacted me telepathically yesterday."

"Master?"

Chen Changqing was stunned, his expression full of confusion and bewilderment.

I can't understand why my master would send a telepathic message to Empress Liuye.

Empress Liuye did not rush to speak again.

Deep down, he felt a bit resentful and muttered to himself:

"Snort!"

"My senior brother has never contacted me since I left Mount Shu!"

"Now, for the sake of his disciple, he actually took the initiative to come to me!"

Thinking it over, Empress Liuye narrowed her phoenix eyes and couldn't help but scrutinize Chen Changqing again.
