A demonic wind blew and black clouds covered the city.

The citizens of Wuxuan City all ran out and stopped to watch. They saw wisps of black gas drifting out from the palace as if a demon had come into being and was about to wreak havoc in the world.

"It's over, it's over. Zhao Country is going to be finished!"

"Let's quickly run. If we don't leave now, we will be eaten by the demons."

Just as the citizens were fleeing in panic, a golden light rose from the palace.

"Demons and monsters, retreat, retreat! Demons and ghosts, quickly reveal yourselves. Demons, take my sword!"

Someone had already discovered that the figure under the golden light was the young master of Northern Chen Manor, Zhao Mu.

Zhao Mu stood in the air with his black hair fluttering in the wind. He was full of righteousness.

He slashed out with his sword and the dark clouds in the sky instantly dispersed. Sunlight once again shrouded the land.

A group of demons of all shapes and sizes were forced to retreat by the sword force as they let out shrill and terrifying howls.

"Zhao Mu, you win. I admit defeat today. It's a small world, let's meet again!"

That demon's figure swayed and actually grabbed an elder in a dragon robe before flying to the horizon with a whoosh.

Zhao Mu shouted sternly, "Put down the emperor!"

He rose on his sword and was about to give chase when he was blocked by purple lightning that exploded out of nowhere. He could only watch as the demons took the emperor away.

The citizens in the city were even more dumbfounded. They were only ordinary citizens and had never seen such a grand scene of immortals fighting.

"It's about time."

Zhao Mu slowly landed in the palace.

Zhao Chen swallowed his saliva and asked, "Mu 'er, will this really work?"

"It's just going through the motions. We have to give the citizens a logical reason to accept the new emperor. Even if someone realizes that something is wrong, by then, father will already be firmly seated on the dragon throne. Any resistance will no longer be able to form any momentum."

Zhao Mu said.

The scene just now was Wang Sheng's plan and Zhao Mu was only there to cooperate.

That group of demons was Wang Sheng and his clansmen. They were originally demon cultivators so they didn't need to put on makeup when they acted as demons and ghosts. They could directly appear in their demon forms.

As for the dark clouds in the sky, it was an effect created by Zhao Mu with the power of the formation.

Zhao Qingxi looked at the horizon and muttered, "I hope father can continue to live outside."

Zhao Qingxi was worried that her Imperial Father would take things too hard when he was suddenly demoted to an ordinary person. He had to take care of his own food, clothing, housing, and transportation. The difference in status was not something that an ordinary person could bear. She was worried that her Imperial Father would take things too hard.

Zhao Mu said, "Don't worry. I've already instructed Wang Sheng to try his best to find a suitable place for the Emperor to retire. Your father might even have the heart to cultivate immortality. Cultivating immortality is much more interesting than being the Emperor."

Hearing Zhao Mu's words, Zhao Qingxi's heart.

She raised her head and looked at Zhao Mu carefully. "Cousin, I haven't seen you for a year. You've changed so much that I don't even dare to acknowledge you."

King Beichen's family used to be direct descendants of the royal family. According to seniority, it was reasonable for Zhao Qingxi to call Zhao Mu cousin.

"I have indeed experienced a lot in the past year. I will slowly tell you about it in the future."

. "Zhao Mu looked at Zhao Qingxi. He thought he would be overjoyed when he saw the little princess, but for some reason, there wasn't much of a ripple in his heart.

Now that he thought about it, Zhao Mu had only seen Zhao Qingxi once. All his beautiful yearning for Zhao Qingxi came from the memories of his predecessor.

That spoiled brat's infatuation and love for Zhao Qingxi had affected Zhao Mu's soul to a certain extent, causing him to have a subtle illusion.

In fact, Zhao Mu had experienced too many women in the past year in the Saint Prime Devil Sect. His horizons were no longer the same as before.

Although Zhao Qingxi was a top-notch beauty among mortals, mortals were mortals after all. They were tainted with filth and dust.

On the other hand, a cultivator's body and mind were clear and pure. Their appearance would never age and their bloodline was outstanding.

It was a far cry.

It wasn't that Zhao Mu despised Zhao Qingxi. It was just that Zhao Mu was thinking of ways to make Zhao Qingxi a cultivator.

Zhao Qingxi was only seventeen years old. However, she hadn't awakened her spirit root at seventeen years old. This meant that she didn't have the physique to cultivate.

In order to make Zhao Qingxi cultivate, he had to use pills to make her reborn and awaken her spirit root first.

It wasn't difficult, but it wasn't easy either.

He had to bring Zhao Qingxi back to the Saint Prime Devil Sect to know the result.

"Cousin, when this is over, are you willing to follow me to the immortal sect to cultivate the Dao of Immortality?" Zhao Mu asked.

He couldn't tell others that he was from the Saint Prime Devil Sect.

Although he knew that the Devil Sect wasn't an evil sect, it was just a mix of human and demon forces. It sounded a little chaotic.

However, to most humans who saw demons as their mortal enemy, the Saint Prime Devil Sect wasn't a proper sect just by hearing the name.

The humans still believed in the Five Great Sacred Grounds. After all, there were five supreme human powerhouses there. They were the orthodox immortal sect.

Zhao Qingxi was overjoyed. "Can I really?

Cousin, you're so good to me. I'm so happy! "

As she spoke, Zhao Qingxi tiptoed and stole a kiss on Zhao Mu's lips without warning.

Zhao Mu smiled. He wasn't surprised by this little girl's attitude.

Those who were born in the Immortal Martial Continent all understood that they could only see hope when they set foot on the Immortal Path. A mortal, no matter how rich or powerful you were, could only live for a hundred years at most. After a hundred years, everything would be for naught. Even an emperor would turn into a pile of dirt.

Seeking immortality was the greatest meaning of a person's life.

Although Zhao Qingxi was the princess of a country and had an extraordinary status, her natural aptitude was not good enough and she could not force herself to become an immortal.

This was Zhao Qingxi's biggest regret. However, now that Zhao Mu had said that he would take her to cultivate, how could Zhao Qingxi not be excited?

Zhao Mu stroked Zhao Qingxi's little head and said, "Cultivation is not easy, especially when you are not talented enough. You may have to endure several times more hardships than others, but you can only reap far less rewards than others. Even so, do you have no regrets?"

Zhao Qingxi nodded solemnly. "As long as I can cultivate, no matter how much hardship I have to endure, I will have no complaints!"

Not bad. No matter how much this girl's aptitude could be improved, at least her attitude was not bad.

Of course, an attitude was just an attitude. No one knew what would happen in reality.

However, as long as Zhao Qingxi did not give up halfway, Zhao Mu would still try her best to help him.

In any case, what he did not lack the least was resources.

Once he tied up all ten return quotas, it would be a piece of cake for him to get whatever resources he wanted.

After settling Zhao Qingxi, Zhao Mu came to Zhao Chen and said, "Father, we can postpone the ascension to the throne for a while. However, the country cannot be without a ruler for even a day. I suggest that you take over the position of regent and command the civil and military officials to deal with the crisis of Zhao Country."

When Zhao Chen heard this, he couldn't help but feel refreshed.

When he was young, he also dreamed that one day he could ascend the throne and become the Emperor, ruling the world.

Who would have thought that at this age, he would have the chance to make his dream come true.
