Boom-
The supremely profound truths of the method surged ceaselessly like a river bursting through its banks.
The expressions of everyone nearby changed, and they hurriedly retreated several steps.
All of them watched nervously, their eyes fixed on the slender figure seated cross-legged on the floor.
The emperor's heart was pounding as well. He could not help lowering his voice. "This girl... always so impatient... does she really not need to prepare?"
"Hold your tongue."
The High Ancestor glanced at the emperor and spoke gravely.
"Since Gu Yue dares to do this, she must be completely confident."
"We need only watch. Do not disturb her concentration."
At that, the emperor could only shut his mouth sheepishly.
Yet the anxiety in his eyes refused to fade.
Lu Changfeng also drew a deep breath and said solemnly, "Her talent would rank among the very best even in the Eastern Region. Surely this will pose no difficulty for her..."
"Oh, right..."
Something suddenly occurred to him.
He turned his gaze toward the emperor beside him.
As the young master of the Lu Clan, he naturally knew how to conduct himself in different situations.
Though he could directly probe her age, doing so would overstep his bounds...
"May I ask... how old is Her Highness the Eldest Princess this year?"
The emperor paused. Though he did not know why Lu Changfeng had suddenly asked, he answered instinctively.
"Gu Yue..."
He counted on his fingers, a wistful look appearing on his face.
"She should have just turned eighteen this year. Nineteen by traditional reckoning."
"..."
Eighteen?
He whipped his head around and looked at the girl in the center once more.
