The Strongest Qi Refiner

Lu Chen kept begging, while Nan Yuan, who was on the opposite side, lowered her head and said nothing.

Empress Xiaoyue was still sitting on the high seat in front of her, and hadn't made any statement yet.

The atmosphere in the hall was extremely depressing.

As a direct descendant of the ancient demon emperor, a member of the royal family... unexpectedly chose to seek refuge with an external force of unknown origin.

Such an act is considered a felony, and it can even be regarded as a crime of collaborating with the enemy!

If it reaches the ears of the Ancient Demon Emperor... Nan Yuan, Lu Chen, Xu Zhenyun and many members of the sub-lineage of the royal family will all be punished!

After Xu Zhenyun was captured by Fang Yu and taken to the ancient demon prison... Nan Yuan knew that she had no other choice.

She could only confess everything and let her mother... Empress Xiaoyue come to the rescue!

Most of the secondary bloodlines are the biological flesh and blood of Empress Xiaoyue.

In this critical situation, Nan Yuan can only gamble.

Bet that her mother...would look at the face of so many flesh and blood and come to the rescue!

Otherwise, they will only have a dead end!

"Mother..."

Seeing that Empress Xiaoyue kept silent, Lu Chen raised her head and looked at the high seat in front of her with tears in her eyes.

Queen Xiaoyue remained silent.

Lu Chen's heart sank to the bottom.

"stand up."

At this moment, Empress Xiaoyue suddenly spoke.

There was still no obvious emotional fluctuation in her tone.

Lu Chen glanced at Nan Yuan, then looked at Empress Xiaoyue's position, kowtowed and cried again: "Mother, we know we were wrong, we really knew we were wrong... Please do help us..."

Nan Yuan didn't show anything else, she just stood up.

"Shut up and get up."

Empress Xiaoyue spoke again, this time, her tone became a little cold.

Lu Chen's crying stopped abruptly.

She raised her head, glanced at Nan Yuan across from her, and then stood up.

"Do you know, as a member of the royal family, how much crime do you have to bear for relying on external forces?" Empress Xiaoyue asked coldly, "Especially your father...it is absolutely impossible to accept such a thing."

"We knew the consequences and thought about it."

Before Lu Chen could speak, Nan Yuan answered.

"But in the end, we did it anyway." Nan Yuan said with a calm expression, "Father doesn't give us fairness, then we can only use the power of external forces to obtain fairness. Otherwise, we will always be ruled by the main lineage." suppress."

"Fair... How much benefit can they give you? Enough to make you take risks?" Queen Xiaoyue asked.

"There are many benefits. We only need to help them do some small things to get a lot of cultivation resources." Nan Yuan replied calmly without any fear, "After cooperating with the Holy Academy, my cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds. A little mother should see it in her eyes."

"As well as Brother Zhenyun, Lu Chen, and even the entire sub-lineage... After cooperating with the Holy Academy, they have all improved significantly."

"Without the Holy Court, such progress would not be possible."

After hearing these words, Empress Xiaoyue was silent for a moment, and said: "So, you have to thank the Holy Court."

"No need to thank us, we are just a cooperative relationship, each takes what we need." Nan Yuan replied, "Of course, judging from the previous situation, what we get...is not directly proportional to what we gave. I have also thought about the holy The intention of the court, but there is no clue."

"Besides, I don't want to delve into it."

"For me, cultivation is the most important thing. If we want to change our situation, we must climb to the top! Otherwise, we descendants of inferior blood will never be able to stand up!"

"Snapped!"

When Nan Yuan said the last sentence, she was slapped on the cheek, and there was a crisp sound in the hall!

Nan Yuan covered her left face, stood in place, and looked at Queen Xiaoyue in front of her with firm eyes, without any look of fear.

On the other hand, Lu Chen's eyes widened, looking at Nan Yuan in disbelief.

She didn't expect that Nan Yuan would dare to mention the word 'inferior bloodline' in front of her mother.

This word, to the queen mother... is the ultimate humiliation!

The word, derived from some members of the main lineage, ridiculed the members of the secondary lineage.

As long as they are born of Empress Xiaoyue, they are all inferior bloodlines, incomparable with their noble main lineages!

After this rumor was spread, the status of members of the secondary lineage within the entire ancient demon royal family... once again decreased.

There are even a lot of remarks, and they don't even regard the secondary lineage as the royal family!

"Mother, queen mother..." Lu Chen trembled, wanting to say something.

"Isn't that so? What I'm saying isn't the truth?"

At this moment, Nan Yuan spoke again with an excited tone.

"This is a term those guys use to humiliate us. If we don't mention it, it doesn't exist anymore?" Nan Yuan stared straight at the position of Empress Xiaoyue, gritted her teeth and said, "Could it be that we have been shrinking and giving way, our days Will it be better?"

"No! Our retreat will only make them push forward, continue to oppress our living space, and make the environment worse. In the end, there will be no room for us in the ancient demon galaxy!"
