Chapter 20: The Young Mistress of Jingluo Manor

  While everyone was busy, Lü Yang had nothing to do and didn't fit in with the other servants, so he stood aside silently, fists clenched, walking stance, quietly savoring the subtleties of his internal energy flowing.

  His martial arts skills have improved significantly recently and he has begun to show the demeanor of a true master.

  Since Lyu Yueyao explained to him the principles of dividing various realms in martial arts cultivation, and also taught him some methods of introspection, he was able to control his internal breath to wander around his body, savoring the mysterious power contained in the human body, and his spiritual realm gradually became more perfect.

  This is a sign that his martial arts realm is about to break through the acquired fivefold triple harmony realm. The heart and will are combined, the will and energy are combined, and the energy and strength are combined, which is the acquired fivefold triple harmony realm. Lü Yang has already groped for the threshold of this realm and is only one step away from stepping in. At the same time, his skills have also shown significant growth compared to when he first learned martial arts, reaching eleven years.

  "My power has increased significantly and I have reached eleven years. Now I should possess a strength of around one hundred twenty jin, approximately three thousand six hundred catty."

  "Martial arts moves, fist methods, can exert one's own strength. I throw a punch, with the weight of a hundred kilograms."

  Lyu Yang was measuring his own strength according to what Lyu Yu Yao had said, the method used by ancient people to measure one's martial arts realm and power.

  One form, one quantity, belonging to movement and stillness, having both emptiness and substantiality, is actually yin and yang.

  One yin one yang is called Tao, this is the feeling of martial arts.

  Knowing the way to measure martial arts, Lü Yang's understanding of his own strength and grasp of cultivation became even clearer.

  "What's going on over there? Something happened?"

  Suddenly, a faint sound came from the front of the mansion. Lü Yang snapped back to attention and looked over, only to find a group of young men and women in elegant attire walking out of the mansion, all with beautiful faces and charming smiles.

  Lyu Yang saw Lyu Yu Yao was also among them, dressed in a white long gown, looking ethereal and refined. Although she wasn't as elaborately dressed as the other noble ladies, she still stood out.

  However, he soon discovered that this group of people seemed to be surrounding a 15 or 16-year-old girl in magnificent clothes, and the girl seemed to have a noble status, higher than everyone else.

  These young masters and ladies from the prominent families of Nanling have always been proud and arrogant, but in front of this famous girl, they are all unusually kind and humble, as if they were modest gentlemen and gentle ladies. Even Lü Yuexiang, who is usually surrounded by people like a moon among stars, and is always the center of attention wherever she goes, is willing to take a back seat and stand slightly beside her.

  "What kind of girl is she, so ignorant that she even dares to push our family's Fourth Miss aside?" Lü Yang couldn't help but feel curious and quietly asked Tao Er beside him.

  Lü Yu Yao's status and position, he knew that it was really hard to understand what kind of person could suppress her and steal the spotlight.

  Especially in the ancient land of Zhongzhou, where civilization was passed down through etiquette and law, there were specific rules for everything from ranking to walking. The person surrounded by people like stars and moons, with everyone else following behind, was generally the most noble and revered figure among all, with very few exceptions.

  "Keep your voice down!" Tao'er was startled by Lü Yang's inquiry and said with a pale face, "Are you trying to get yourself killed? What's wrong with you, that's the noble County Princess, don't speak carelessly, if someone hears it, you're dead for sure."

  "County Master?" Lü Yang was taken aback, "The County Master can't compare to our family's young lady in terms of nobility. With the Fourth Miss being so young and already cultivating to the tenth level of heavenly talent, entering the immortal sect, and practicing immortality, it's only a matter of time. What can a mere county master from a mundane dynasty possibly compare to her? Let alone a county master, even a princess would likely be far inferior."

  Lü didn't believe it, but Tao'er said that the county lord's daughter would have a higher status than Miss Lü.

  "What you're referring to is the young lady from another household, but this one is different." Seeing Lü Yang's nonchalant expression, still unaware of what kind of person the "unwise" girl he mentioned was, Tao'er couldn't help but lower her voice and solemnly warn him.

  "Jingluo County Princess! Lü Yang, that is the Jingluo County Princess herself!" Tao'er whispered to Lü Yang, "The Jingluo County Princess is the most beloved daughter of the King of Southern Quelling, and also his only daughter. It's said that the King of Southern Quelling has nineteen sons, but only one daughter, who is treasured beyond measure. Even the Crown Prince doesn't receive as much favor as she does! What are you talking about with your 'county princess' and 'princess', how can they compare to this Jingluo County Princess?"

  "What? So she's actually the County Princess of Lingshu?" Lu Yang was slightly startled upon hearing this.

  "What? Have you heard of the Lord of Jingluo County?" Tao'er asked.

  "That's right, I seem to have heard of her name before. Legend has it that this girl is a reincarnation of a fairy gate cultivator, reborn in the mortal imperial court, and will one day return to her original form and re-enter the Mystic Heaven Gate. It's said that on the day she was born, the Tian Nan Ze country, which had been experiencing torrential rains for over a dozen days, suddenly cleared up and became cloudless, with petals and leaves falling from the sky, and countless precious stones and jade emerging from the cracks in the ground. Countless fairy spirits and strange objects came to congratulate her." Lyu Yang recalled, sighing, "This matter was once widely known, but I'm seeing her for the first time today, and if you hadn't mentioned it, I still wouldn't have known."

  "More than a decade ago, there was indeed such a legend. The King of Town South relied on his noble daughter and found a great backer." Tao'er couldn't help but glance at Lü Yang, "Huh? You know quite a lot too."

  "I also knew it from others' gossip, originally didn't pay much attention to it, but now that you mention it, I remember." Lü Yang said.

  Zhongzhou is an ancient land with a rich history, where talented people have emerged one after another. Over the years, countless heroes and outstanding figures have risen to prominence, dominating their time and becoming famous throughout the world, known to all.

  At that time, the Great Xuan Dynasty dominated the world, and all nations came to pay homage. There were also many heroes and legendary figures, and these heroes and legendary figures, more or less, had something to do with the Xuantian Gate, the imperial family, and the great aristocratic families.

  This is one of them, the County Master of Jingluo.

  It is said that on the day of Princess Linglong's birth, auspicious omens descended from heaven and a rare spectacle appeared, attracting countless civilians and scholars to speculate about her origins. It wasn't until the full moon that an envoy from the Xuantian Gate arrived at the palace, and only then did everyone realize she was someone with great connections.

  However, the public's understanding of her is limited to this. More people have only heard of the name of the Countess of Xianglian from others, and as for what she looks like, how old she is, and what interests and hobbies she has, they are unknown.

  Lyu Yang was also one of the crowd, before today, he had only heard some rumors, and had never seen the Princess of Jing Luo with his own eyes, so he couldn't help but open his eyes wide and take a good look.

  Lyu Yang gazed from afar, and all he saw was the girl's slender eyebrows, starry eyes, white teeth, red lips, delicate figure, and a face that shone with a radiant beauty. She was a perfect beauty, and at first glance, she seemed to possess an air of noble elegance, but her demeanor still betrayed a hint of immaturity. With a look of excitement, she chattered away with Lyu Yuexiang beside her, occasionally flashing a brilliant smile.

  This appearance is clearly that of a simple-minded little girl, and it's really hard to associate her with the identity of a certain big shot's reincarnation.

  "It is said that when a Xianmen cultivator reaches the state of Pre-Heavenly Great Perfection, they can release their spirit and travel far in the void. Even if they encounter disaster, they can find a way to preserve a thread of true spirit and be reborn after death. Was this Princess Jingluo someone who had reached the state of Pre-Heavenly Great Perfection in her past life?" Lü Yang asked quietly, looking at Tao'er.

  "You don't know this, do you? Although the Xiangxiang County Master is a reincarnation of a Tianmen cultivator, she hasn't cultivated to such a high level. It's because her father in her previous life was the Supreme Elder of the Xuantiandao, with an extremely noble status, that they were able to use the 'Nine Deaths Rebirth Dan' from the treasure trove to retrieve her soul and revive her, sending her to be reborn in the mortal imperial court." Taohua looked at him and said.

  "What? Her father in her past life is the Supreme Elder of the Mystic Heaven Sect?"

  Just now, I heard that the girl is the reincarnation of a big man in Xianmen, the daughter of Zhen Nan Wang, Jing Ruo Jun Zhu, and Lü Yang was only slightly surprised. But this time, knowing that she is the daughter of the Supreme Elder of Xuantian Gate, he was truly shocked.
