The Strongest Qi Refiner

"No, no..." Cang Yu quickly got up.

The empress stood up, Cangyu immediately lowered her head, not daring to meet her eyes.

Every time he looks into God's eyes, he will feel that he has been seen through from the inside out, and there is nothing hidden in his heart that cannot be avoided.

In the past, it didn't matter even if his mind was seen through.

But now...if his relationship with Fang Yu is found out, it will be over!

"Cangyu, raise your head." At this time, the empress said.

Cangyu's heart shook violently, and her body trembled.

No matter what, come no matter what!

Cangyu still lowered her head, not daring to lift it up.

But at this time, the empress stretched out her left hand and gently lifted his chin with two fingers.

Cangyu had no choice but to follow along and raise her head.

But he still didn't dare to meet the Empress' eyes.

"Cangyu, today you also went to the Tiannan Mountains to compete for the Heaven's Hegemony." The Empress said calmly, "Although you didn't directly participate, I want to know... how you feel."

"Feeling?" Cangyu was already extremely nervous at the moment, completely unable to understand the meaning of the empress's question.

"Just say what you feel, no matter what it is." The face behind the emperor's veil seemed to show a smile.

"I... I'm just very scared." Cangyu swallowed, and answered truthfully.

"Afraid? Afraid of what?" asked the empress.

"Afraid, afraid of death!" Cangyu replied.

"You didn't directly participate in the battle, so why are you afraid of death?" the empress continued to ask.

"They...they are too strong, even watching the battle may be injured." Cangyu replied.

"That's true." The empress nodded lightly, and said, "Insufficient in strength, I don't even have the qualifications to watch the battle."

Cangyu didn't speak, but kept avoiding the eyes of the empress.

"Cangyu, you have personally experienced this feeling, you should feel very ashamed, right?" the Empress asked.

Cangyu didn't speak.

In fact, he really felt very humiliated when he lost the fight with Fang Yu at the beginning, when he was taken away from Yin Zhi, and at the same time he was still under control.

However, Fang Yu continued to show his exaggerated strength afterwards.

To this day, even Guangchen, who has fused the heavenly body, is no match for Fang Yu...

So what is he to be ashamed of?

In the royal family, his Cangyu's strength is the last existence... Even Cang Rong and Guangchen, who are among the best, were defeated by Fang Yu. He really has nothing to be ashamed of.

Fang Yu's strength has surpassed all the princes by one dimension.

But he thought so in his heart, but Cangyu couldn't say it directly.

He knew his mother well.

Since the queen mother asked this question, she must want to get an affirmative answer.

Therefore, Cangyu had no choice but to reply: "Yes, I feel very ashamed."

"It's a good thing to feel shame." The empress stroked Cangyu's cheek with her left hand, and said lightly, "From today, the empress will help you wash away this shame."

Hearing this sentence, Cang Yu was stunned.

The Empress... What exactly do you want to do?

"Cang Rong...was abolished."

At this time, the empress said, her tone suddenly turned cold.

"However, he was defeated by lack of brains and lack of strength. It is only natural for him to be deposed." The empress said coldly.

Cangyu dared not speak.

"From now on, I will give you all the resources that I originally invested in Cang Rong." The empress stared at Cangyu in front of her with bright eyes, and said slowly, "Da Chong Tianshi will also become yours. Mentor, accept you as an apprentice and help you improve your strength."

Cangyu... was already stunned at this moment.

"My request is not high, the next three sacred fruits...you have to get at least two of them." The empress said again.

"I, I can't do this..." Cangyu came back to her senses and replied.

"Master Da Chong and I will help you." The Empress said flatly, "You must obtain the Holy Fruit."

"Mother, I..." Cang Yu's face was pale, and she wanted to speak.

"Cangyu, with that sense of shame... work hard to improve your strength." The empress turned around and said coldly, "The general trend is, if you don't make progress, what awaits you is death."

"Becoming the crown prince is your only way out."

Hearing these words, Cang Yu felt cold all over.

"Cang Rong was abolished, Guangchen died, and the rest of the successors are not a threat." The empress said, "The road, the empress has already paved for you, you just need to walk along it... There will be no accidents."

Cangyu looked at the back of the empress, speechless.

"Speaking of which, we have to thank that human monk Fang Yu... If he hadn't taken action to disrupt the situation, there really would be no perfect way to get rid of Guangchen." The empress turned around again and said, "His appearance just provided us with Great opportunity."

At this time, Cangyu looked at the empress, as if he saw the terrifying phantom that he had seen back then!

That face, which seemed to appear under the empress' veil, was grinning at him.

Cangyu's body trembled violently, almost falling limp to the ground.

"Cangyu, don't let the empress down." The empress said again, "I don't want to help another person up again...it's a waste of time."

After finishing speaking, the figure of the empress trembled like water waves and slowly dissipated.

"The Great Chongtian Master will come to your palace soon, you follow all its orders and arrangements, and improve your strength as soon as possible." Although the figure became blurred, the voice of the empress still echoed in the palace, "The next holy fruit , will appear soon."

After saying this, the empress disappeared completely in the palace.

Cangyu stood where she was, feeling cold all over.

Only now did he realize... the thoughts of the empress.

"Killing Guangchen and making him the crown prince... Isn't this going against the emperor's will!?" Cang Yu's heart was pounding.

Fang Yu gave him a holy fruit last time, and asked him to bring it back to remember the credit.

Then, he really successfully became the candidate for the crown prince.

He thought it was because of the holy fruit.

But now it seems that the empress originally wanted to hold him in this position as Cang Rong's candidate.

That sacred fruit just happened to be the plan of the empress, so it went smoothly...

Now that something happened to Cang Rong, the Empress pushed Cang Yu as a candidate to the front and continued to complete what she wanted to do!

"The queen mother...what exactly do you want? Kill Guangchen and make me the crown prince...she wants it!" Cangyu's heart beat faster and faster, and her head was sweating profusely.

He faintly realized what the empress wanted to do.

But...he couldn't believe it, and couldn't understand it!

Why... the empress would do this! ?

However, this question cannot be answered, nor is it crucial.

The most important thing right now is that Cangyu found herself in an extremely dangerous situation.

As long as there is even a little bit of news about what the empress is planning, he will die.

But if he really sits on the position of crown prince, it will be very difficult for him not to reveal his secrets if he has to meet the emperor frequently!

But if he doesn't obey the emperor's order, he still has only death option.

And whether it is the emperor or the empress, if he finds the imprint left by Fang Yu in Cangyu's body, and thus knows the relationship between the two... that will be death upon death!

"It's over, it's over..." Cang Yu sat slumped on the ground, staring blankly ahead, full of despair.
