Late at night, the lanterns in the palace shine like stars, swaying gently with the breeze, spreading soft white light and dispelling the deep cold of the dark night.

Long Chenyu gently exhaled a white breath and walked quickly through the corridor, like a weightless ghost. None of the patrolling guards found him.

He came to a study room silently and saw the yellowish light of the oil lamp shining through the window paper, reflecting mottled light and shadow on the ground.

"Tuk, Tuk, Tuk."

Long Chenyu knocked on the door unhurriedly. After about two seconds, the door was gently opened by the person inside.

"Just came out of seclusion?" Long Chenxi held a jade slip in his left hand. When he saw Long Chenyu standing at the door with an expressionless face, he didn't feel the slightest surprise.

"Yes." Long Chenyu simply responded, closed the door, and moved a chair to sit opposite Long Chenxi politely.

"It seems that we have another strong person in the realm of enlightenment." Long Chenxi looked at him carefully and said with great relief.

Long Chenyu glanced at the jade slip in his hand and said calmly: "If you had put aside these trivial matters, I'm afraid you would have attained enlightenment long ago."

"How can I enlighten myself if my mind is not calm?" Long Chenxi shook his head, "You still have to slowly explore this road ahead."

"I don't have the time to explore slowly, Li Xiuran... Although he hides well, with the resources he has at his disposal, I'm afraid he has been in the realm of enlightenment for a long time." Long Chenyu said.

"So what? Since you are already at the same height as him, I believe that you will never be inferior to him." Long Chenxi handed the jade slip to him, "Here, take a look at the latest ones.

Information."

Long Chenyu browsed it twice without saying a word, frowning in thought.

"The lessons learned from the new Ling Kingdom are in front of us, so even Li Xiuran had to panic." Long Chenxi showed a slightly sarcastic sneer.

"What's the point of devoting all the country's efforts to please them? Do you think this can stop the Ancestral Spirit Palace from attacking us?" Long Chenyu said coldly.

"But if you don't try to please them, it will be a disaster. Not to mention masters of enlightenment, they are the most powerful people in the second and third steps of the Tao realm. The two major spiritual tribes are also everywhere." Long Chenxi.

road.

"No matter what he does, this is our chance. Li Xiuran has taken refuge with the Phantom Clan before and helped them break the seal of the Sealing Star. It's impossible that the Yuanling Clan doesn't care. They are just observing."

Long Chenyu said.

He said calmly: "Although I have had enough of living under the shelter of others, at present, it is impossible for Feng Lingxing to return to its previous freedom in a short time. We must either seek refuge with the Yuanling clan or the Dao Ling clan."

Clan, being caught in the middle is not a good thing."

"Although this is the case, it is really difficult to make a decision for a while, especially the more information collected, the more difficult it becomes to make a decision." Long Chenxi said.

"Isn't it obvious that the Dao Ling Clan is stronger than the Yuan Ling Clan?" Long Chenyu said.

"But in Fengling Star, they are evenly matched, and it may not be bad to take refuge with the weak." Long Chenxi said.

"But as for the Yuanling clan..." Long Chenyu hesitated.

Long Chenxi said calmly: "I know what you are struggling with, but in this world there are only eternal interests and no eternal enemies. This is an eternal truth."

Long Chenyu opened his mouth and was about to say something, but suddenly his expression became serious. He stood up and looked at the door.

"Squeak——"

A figure easily pushed open the closed door. Not even the sound barrier caused any trouble. He walked up to the two of them like a leisurely stroll and said with a faint smile: "It seems that Lord Long is fully prepared."

Well, then I came uninvited, so don’t be surprised if I’m being rude."

Long Chenyu looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar figure. His right hand involuntarily grasped the hilt of the sword beside him, and then slowly released it. He tried to lock Yu Ling's energy, but the other party seemed to be in a void.

Although it is clearly right in front of you, you can't feel the slightest trace of its existence.

Long Chenxi's performance was much calmer, as if he had expected Yu Ling's sudden appearance, but his narrow pupils revealed that he was not as calm as he appeared.

"It's so easy to talk about. Should I call you...His Royal Highness Yuling?" Long Chenxi said calmly.

"It always feels like you are mocking me by calling me that." Yu Ling also moved a chair, sat down casually and said, "Did Long Zhongjin tell you that?"

"Yeah, but you can find out about this kind of thing after just a little inquiry." Long Chenxi said.

He considered his words carefully, as if he wanted to ask something tactfully, but Long Chenyu was the first to say: "What state are you in now?"

Long Chenxi's eyes darkened. Although this was also his question, it was a bit inappropriate to ask it so straightforwardly.

Unexpectedly, Yu Ling also responded straightforwardly: "The realm of true Tao."

Long Chenyu was silent for two seconds. It was impossible to tell what his emotions were on the surface, but his tone was slightly complicated: "Are you still a master of the three major systems?"

"Um."

"So the techniques you practice are originally the techniques of the Yuanling royal family..."

"right."

Long Chenyu seemed to have figured out a problem that had been bothering him. He lowered his head slightly and said, "Then, we deserved it back then."

Long Chenxi coughed slightly and changed the subject calmly: "Let's be honest, what is the purpose of your visit this time?"

"Of course I want to discuss something with Lord Long," Yu Ling said.

Long Chenxi's tone was slightly cold: "I don't think there is anything to talk about with the enemy who killed my father."

"If Lord Long really thinks so, he should have kicked me out a minute ago, right?" Yu Ling said with a half-smile, "To a certain extent, I have helped you get to the throne early. Anyway, you are right

Long Xuzhi doesn’t have any emotions, does he?”

Long Chenxi looked cold as if he was about to retort, but Yu Ling interrupted in advance: "The Lord of Time mentioned to me the dreams you created from the Dream Sea. Even if you can deceive yourself, your subconscious will not have any

Pretend."

"so?"

"So Lord Long doesn't have to play hard-to-get negotiation skills. It's meaningless. It's better to be honest."

Yu Ling glanced at the two of them and said: "Of course, even though Li Xiuran has changed his subordinates batch after batch since he came to power, there are still some who are loyal to Long Xuzhi after all. Let them know that you are calm and peaceful.

If I talk to you, I'm afraid the impact won't be very good, so I didn't intend to ask you to do anything for me when I came here."

"Then you..." Long Chenxi said in surprise.

"Almost all those who once fled have returned. The New Spirit Kingdom will soon be torn apart. The feudal territory will probably return to its previous structure, but this time, there will be no more five kingdoms competing for hegemony."

Yu Ling looked at him and said: "The feudal domain will be controlled by the Lord of Time. His task is to stabilize the situation. No one is allowed to provoke a war. If you can do this, then Li Xiuran will soon disappear in

In this world.”

"A stable and peaceful territory... I don't see what good it would do to you." Long Chenxi said.

"If you limit your focus to the category of the ancestral star, that is naturally the case. But Lord Dragon, this world is not just the land under your feet." Yu Ling said.

Long Chenxi was silent for a moment: "Over there in the Five Color Domain, your people should not be idle either, right?"

"In fact, except for the closed domain, the other sixteen domains can be unified into one domain without much obstacles." Yu Ling said.

These words may sound arrogant at first, but Long Chenxi knows very well that Yu Ling is just describing an inevitable event in a very ordinary way. Even if it is a territorial seal, it is not that he cannot forcibly unify it if he wants to. At most, the people will be distracted.

That’s all.

"What is your status in the Ancestral Spirit Hall?" Long Chenxi asked.

"Deputy Palace Master. Anyway, don't worry, I can make the decision on these matters alone." Yu Ling said.

Long Chenxi didn't know what to say for a moment. It was also six years ago that he was still secretly competing with Li Xiuran in the deep palace, but Yuling was already standing at the top of the pyramid.

"If it is the Lord of the Time Territory, I can follow the arrangements of the Territory Lord's Mansion, but I still have one condition." Long Chenxi said slowly: "I hope to add a teleportation array to other stars in the capital, and I
