Chapter 446: Mo Tianxue Loses Her Mind

Heavenly Martial Kingdom.

"Your Majesty, the princess and Master Zhang have arrived at the Xuan Yuan Kingdom!" the Shadow Guard commander reported with a cupped fist salute.

"Hmm!"

Mo Tianxue nodded, then thought of something and couldn't help but sigh: "That girl is good in every way, except she cares too much about relationships. She's wasted all my efforts!"

Mo Hongyi's rise was formidable; he feared losing the throne and had focused on grooming the most talented of his children, Mo Yu, to inherit his position. Yet the girl, for the sake of personal feelings, turned and left with Master Zhang, leaving him both anxious and helpless.

Truly, a daughter is hard to keep.

Master Zhang was a genius, unmatched in the world. Such a person could never be retained by the Heavenly Martial Kingdom. Since there was no hope, why force it?

It would be better to stay peacefully in the kingdom, cultivate diligently, and improve her strength as quickly as possible to inherit the throne.

Now that Mo Hongyi had become a two-star master teacher, his prestige was even greater. Yet you turned and left. Once the people forget about you, this genius, how can you still inherit the throne?

I really don't know what that girl is thinking!

"Though the princess is willful, she always follows Your Majesty's words. She should return after escorting Master Zhang to the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Alliance,"

the Shadow Guard commander said.

As the king's personal guard, he knew Mo Tianxue's thoughts clearly.

To smoothly inherit the throne required not only strength but also prestige.

His Majesty didn't want the princess to leave because he wanted her to gradually take on government affairs and achieve merits, then confidently pass on the throne. Instead, she turned and left without even a word—no wonder he was angry.

"I hope so!"

Mo Tianxue smiled bitterly: "If she could truly win Master Zhang's heart, seeing him off would be fine. But unfortunately, Master Zhang is a dragon among men and has no interest in her. Even if she sees him off for ten thousand miles, it's a waste of time!"

The Shadow Guard Commander did not know how to answer.

Although he had never interacted with this Master Zhang face-to-face, he had seen him a few times in secret and heard many accounts of his deeds, knowing that the ambition of such a super genius could not be constrained by romantic attachments.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore..."

Pushing aside the gloom in his heart, Mo Tianxue was about to continue speaking when she saw an old man hurrying over.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Before even entering the room, the old man's face was flushed red, and his whole body trembled with excitement.

"Old Qu, weren't you supposed to guard the communication wall? Why are you rushing over here in such a hurry?"

Mo Tianxue frowned.

Old Qu, Mo Qu, was a senior of the royal family.

Just as the Lin family had a communication wall to connect with the Xuan Yuan Kingdom, the Tianwu royal family, as a first-rank kingdom, also had one, capable of transmitting messages from Xuan Yuan Royal City, allowing them to learn of changes in the higher realm in advance and respond accordingly.

This Old Qu was responsible for the communication and liaison of the communication wall. Moreover, like Chancellor Qian of the Tianxuan Kingdom, he managed the entire kingdom's information transmission and circulation.

This position was tasked with gathering intelligence; usually, it sufficed to send younger members to deliver messages. Unless a major event occurred, he would not come in person.

"Your Majesty, a... major event has happened!"

Stopping in his tracks, Old Qu's face was full of excitement.

"Major event?" Mo Tianxue looked over. "What event?"

"Master Zhang has arrived at Xuan Yuan Royal City. Today, he caused a great commotion in the royal city and killed... the Crown Prince Ding Mu!"

Old Qu said.

"Killed Crown Prince Ding Mu?" Mo Tianxue's face turned pale, and she nearly fainted.

The crown prince of a sealed kingdom held a status of supreme honor, far beyond what a first-class kingdom like his could compare to... To slay him outright—was this Master Zhang insane or tired of living?

"Yes, and not only that—he made his move during Crown Prince Dingmu's enthronement ceremony!"

Without noticing the emperor's darkened expression, Old Man Qu continued on his own: "As a result, the ancestor Ding Hong was provoked..."

"Are you referring to His Majesty Ding Hong, who shook the entire Xuan Yuan a hundred years ago? He... is still alive?" Mo Tianxue trembled.

This His Majesty Ding Hong had reached the Half-Step Mortal Transcendence level over a hundred years ago, renowned across the land. Everyone thought he had long since passed away, yet he was still alive.

"Yes, not only alive, but he has become a Mortal Transcendence expert..." said Old Man Qu.

"Mortal Transcendence?" Mo Tianxue's voice quivered. "Then Master Zhang..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but the implication was clear: Master Zhang was likely in grave danger.

You break into someone's home and kill their king who was about to be enthroned—how could their ancestor possibly spare you?

He knew this Master Zhang quite well. Though at the peak of Grandmaster, capable of killing half-step Supremes, the gap with the Mortal Transformation realm was too vast—like the difference between a divine dragon and an ant.

I'm afraid that if this ancestor, who had shaken the world a hundred years ago, made a move, he wouldn't even be able to escape and would be killed on the spot.

"Oh, Master Zhang is fine. He broke through to half-step Mortal Transformation on the spot and crippled Emperor Dinghong..."

said Old Qu.

"What?" Mo Tianxue nearly fainted.

Peak Grandmaster strength, breaking through to half-step Mortal Transformation? Are you joking?

Besides, even half-step Mortal Transformation and true Mortal Transformation are vastly different, how could he cripple him?

"The message from the other side is exactly this. I have confirmed it, and there is no mistake!" Old Qu nodded. "And... and..."

"What?"

Qu Lao hesitated, recalling the content on the message wall earlier, still seeming unable to believe it: "The main reason I came is to report this to you—after Master Zhang defeated King Ding Hong, he had Miss Mo Yu ascend the throne as the new king of the Xuan Yuan Kingdom, becoming a female emperor..."

"Ascend the throne as emperor? King of the Xuan Yuan Kingdom?"

Mo Tianxue nearly fell off the throne.

Just after saying that Mo Yu was sentimental and had run off with this Master Zhang, delaying her efforts to win people over and increase her prestige, the result was... she had gone to become king of the Xuan Yuan Kingdom!

Could it be this ruthless?

The Xuan Yuan Kingdom was his superior state, with over twenty subordinate kingdoms like Tian Wu under it. To be king there...

How could this not feel like a dream?

"Yu'er is only at the peak of the Tongxuan realm. How can she be king of a titled kingdom?"

After the shock, Mo Tianxue quickly said.

When Mo Yu left, she was only at the peak of the Tongxuan realm, not even reaching Grandmaster. With such low strength, it was hard to become king even in the Tian Wu Kingdom. To be king of the Xuan Yuan Kingdom—wasn't that seeking death?

"Well... Master Zhang also thought her strength was low, so he performed a direct infusion to make her break through. Princess Mo Yu is now... a peak Sovereign powerhouse!"

Qu Lao said.

"Break through on the spot? Peak Sovereign?"

Thump!

Unable to sit still any longer, Mo Tianxue fell to the ground, eyes dazed, unaware even as he pulled out his own hair.

From peak Tongxuan to... peak Sovereign on the spot. Master Zhang, can you tell me, how exactly did you do it?

"Yu'er... really has good judgment..."

After who knows how long, he finally swallowed his saliva, and Mo Tianxue muttered to himself, his face pale.
