My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Under such circumstances, Commandery Princess Ning fell silent.

She discovered that at this moment, no matter what she said, it all seemed very feeble.

The Emperor of Great Yan sighed, the current silence of Commandery Princess Ning seeming to confirm the facts.

After he sighed, he looked at Commandery Princess Ning with a complexity of emotions in his heart.

He could not say that he liked Commandery Princess Ning, but neither did he dislike her.

Previously, the Emperor of Great Yan had been convincing himself that if Commandery Princess Ning passed the four major challenges first, even if unwilling, he would pass the imperial throne to her.

He would not break the ancestral customs.

He had been mentally prepared, but he had not expected such an incident to occur in the end.

Commandery Princess Ning...

Turned out to be the remaining descendant of Great Chu.

The Emperor of Great Yan's aged eyes gazed upon Commandery Princess Ning's resplendent beauty, and he slowly started to speak, his voice hoarse.

"Your identity has now been exposed."

"During the opening of the Secret Realm and the restarting of the four major anomalies, the images from your mind's trial of conscience were revealed."

"I fear countless messages have been sent out from within the capital, and upon receiving the news, the World Royal Family will soon gather here in Skyfire City. You better escape quickly."

"Although I do not know what the situation is with Prince Ning, why he would recognize you, a remaining descendant of Great Chu, as his daughter... in this situation, even he cannot protect you."

The Emperor of Great Yan had always considered Prince Ning's dignity, as well as that of Great Yan, and had not made a move against Commandery Princess Ning.

If the Emperor of Great Yan had wanted to make a move, it's likely that the moment Commandery Princess Ning left the Secret Realm, he would have suppressed her single-handedly.

Although he was old and weakened now, his cultivation in the Heavenly Human Realm was still there, and it was easy for him to deal with Commandery Princess Ning.

Commandery Princess Ning looked at the Emperor of Great Yan with stunned eyes, clearly not expecting that after her identity had been inexplicably exposed, the Emperor would let her go.

The World Royal Family was watching her, and the Emperor of Great Yan was going to let her off so easily?

Commandery Princess Ning did not believe it.

She looked at the Emperor of Great Yan's sunken eye sockets and wrinkled face, her own majestic beauty unchanged, but she bowed slightly toward the Emperor and the rest of the Great Yan royal kin, then slowly retreated backwards.

After exiting the Great Temple,

Commandery Princess Ning did not hesitate, quickly using the Power of the Primordial Spirit, and the pure white Power of the Primordial Spirit flowed out from her brow center, like ethereal flowing light, lifting her body as she flew away through the air.

The figure of Commandery Princess Ning quickly disappeared from the Great Temple.

Inside the Great Temple, silence was restored in an instant.

The air seemed as if it had frozen.

The Emperor of Great Yan's aged and slightly murky eyes lifted slightly, looking towards where the figure of Commandery Princess Ning vanished into the horizon, his expression unchanged.

"Your Majesty, are we just letting her leave like this?"

"After all, she is the remaining descendant of Great Chu. Once it was predicted on the gold list that if Great Chu rises, the world would unite. If the prediction is true, then her value as the only remaining descendant of Great Chu is immeasurable."

By the side of the Emperor of Great Yan, an elder dressed in a Python Robe slowly inquired.

The Emperor of Great Yan shook his head.

"Ultimately, we have to consider the face of Great Yan, as well as that of Prince Ning. She has been hidden in Great Yan for so many years and has been Prince Ning's daughter for just as long. Perhaps Prince Ning has known her identity all along and has been protecting her."

"Not long ago, Prince Ning was able to withdraw from the Border Area battlefield to seek justice for her, and if he finds out later that we made a move against her, who knows what troubles it will cause."

"So, we cannot make a move."

Having said this, the Python Robe elder beside the Emperor sighed, was about to nod in agreement when he heard the Emperor speak again.

"We cannot make a move, but if others do, that's beyond our control."

As the Emperor of Great Yan said these words, his aged eyes flickered slightly, his gaze falling on the Python Robe elder nearby.

"Longhu, you understand my meaning, don't you?"

When the Python Robe elder heard the Emperor of Great Yan's words, his face showed a hint of shock, but then he nodded slightly, without hesitation, took a step, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.

The Emperor of Great Yan, looking into the distance in the direction where Commandery Princess Ning had left, started slowly rotating the Zitan Buddha Beads in his hand.

"Longhu is the Ancestral Master of the Heavenly Heart Mountain of my Great Yan nation, rarely venturing out, and few must know of his ascension to the Heavenly Human Realm."

"With Longhu making a move, I suppose no one from the World Royal Family will be able to contend for what belongs to Great Yan."

"The remaining descendant of Great Chu... just what secrets does Great Chu hold..."

"Regardless, the remaining descendant of Great Chu that has surfaced in my Great Yan must belong to Great Yan, and others should not attempt to take it."

The Emperor of Great Yan gazed into the distant night sky, murmuring to himself.

The royal kin surrounding the Emperor of Great Yan remained silent, not daring to speak.

Although the Emperor of Great Yan said he would not make a move against Commandery Princess Ning, it was only on the surface, saving some face for Prince Ning.

But making a move in secret, that was beyond Prince Ning's control.

At this time, Prince Ning was far away on the Border Area battlefield, unaware of the developments here.

By the time he found out and attempted to hurry back, everything would've already been settled and too late.

At that point, as long as the Emperor of Great Yan did not confess, Prince Ning could only stew in his frustrations, unable to do much.

The thoughts of the royal relatives surrounded the Emperor of Great Yan, but they quickly understood the Emperor's mindset.

Li Zhongxin, sitting to one side, still hadn't reacted. Having just come out, seeing Commandery Princess Ning exit before him made him feel an intense sense of loss.
