    Chapter 466: Supreme Emotionless

    When Long Yunshuang said the words "I will not sit around waiting for die," she appeared exceptionally resolute.

    Before Zhou Luo could ask, she explained: "We have proof that Long Yu killed his father. As long as we can go to Zhongzhou and submit it to His Majesty, it will surely ruin him."

    She was not worried about this secret spreading, because the more people knew about it, the more Long Yu would panic, so she chose to inform Zhou Luo of this matter.

    Zhou Luo was shocked inwardly.

    It seemed the battle for succession in the royal palace was fiercer than he had imagined; it even involved a patricide scene.

    This Long Yu was indeed a ruthless and cruel person.

    Though he was surprised, he did not find it too absurd.

    In the ancient royal families of his previous life, the fights over succession were far more absurd than this.

    However, he believed that if this evidence truly reached the emperor of Huoyun Country, it would indeed instantly turn the tides of the battle.

    The world of cultivation was not much different from the secular world of dynasties.

    The royal family held supreme power, while those Immortal Sects below resembled feudal lords.

    To maintain basic rule, the royal family established a series of regulations.

    Even though few people followed these regulations because the emperor was distant and commands were weak, if they were truly brought into the open, they would inevitably face punishment from the royal family.

    Long Yu’s patricide was no small matter.

    Once confirmed, not to mention that he was the Ninth Prince, even if he were the crown prince, he would have to endure the overwhelming fury of the royal family, with no chance of recovery.

    After all, the real strength of these princes might not even surpass that of an Immortal Sect like the Biquan True Sect; they only possessed extraordinary status by relying on royal bloodline.

    That was why Long Yu spared no effort in supporting the Chimagong Sect to attack the Qinyuan Sect, forcing them to hand over Long Yunshuang.

    As for why Long Yunshuang and her group did not submit the evidence to the Qinyuan Sect at that time.

    It was probably because they feared there might be Long Yu’s people inside the Qinyuan Sect.

    Their subsequent ambush proved that the Qinyuan Sect’s internal state was also unstable, which was why they chose to leave.

    Zhongzhou was not close to Jinyun Continent, after all, it required crossing another state.

    But Zhou Luo did not concern himself with this; after his mind’s doubts were resolved, he said gravely: "One month; after one month, you must go."

    "Don’t worry. Oh, help me find some materials; absolutely not through Tian Xia Pavilion, seek them privately." After saying this, Long Yunshuang took out a slip of paper, which recorded some materials.

    Zhou Luo, being a Second Level Poison Master, immediately recognized these as detoxifying herbs. Of course, there were also some other useless materials, probably to throw others off.

    "Okay."

    Zhou Luo put away the slip of paper and left that place.

    After leaving, he did not go directly back to his room; instead, he took out a formation disk and set up two Second Level formations throughout the whole Zhou Fu.

    This matter was extremely important; he had to be exceedingly cautious, especially in preventing Long Yu’s men from spying on this location.

    If not for his fear that Long Yunshuang might learn of his identity as a Second Level Formation Master, he would have even set up several more formations in the secret chamber.

    After finishing all this, the sky suddenly brightened; the morning light fell, and a new day arrived.

    Zhou Luo returned to his room and still decided to tell Ye Qian about this matter.

    Upon learning this, Ye Qian was utterly shocked.

    Yet she also realized that apart from taking them in, they truly had no other viable solution.

    "Husband, I will keep a constant eye on them, as well as everyone else in the manor," Ye Qian declared earnestly.

    This matter absolutely must not reach a third person’s ears.

    "Good, you’ll need to manage the manor diligently. Also, pay special attention to that boy Changguang," Zhou Luo instructed.

    Zhou Changguang had not returned to the sect with his mother.

    Now that he was older and showed no talent for Gu techniques, he would inevitably be sent to the Qinyuan Sect.

    It would be best for both him and Zhou Changtian to train diligently under Ye Qian, who had reached the peak Foundation Establishment stage.

    "Understood. There’s no urgency, after all," Ye Qian responded with comprehension.

    Before a waterfall crashing down a verdant, towering peak within the majestic mountains of the Biquan True Sect, stood Wang Yu Wei. She wore a robe the color of moonlight, her lustrous dark hair cascading like a waterfall to her waist.

    Years of cultivation had honed her striking beauty—a stunning face with bright eyes and white teeth, fair arms like jade lightly clasped, and skin bearing an ethereal glow. She resembled an immortal fairy, captivating all who gazed upon her.

    Remembering her days studying at the Qinyuan Sect, she had been innocent and vivacious, always wearing a bright smile and often teasing Zhou Luo.

    Now, shaped by the Immortal Sect’s influence and her rising strength, her features had grown coolly detached, her demeanor like that of a lofty, pure moon—serene yet supremely aloof.

    Here before the raging falls, she stood with tranquil stillness. Mystical energy flowed within her, setting her apart as transcendent and unearthly.

    After a long while, a voice, indifferent yet vast as it seemed to emanate from all around her, carried faint pressure: "What is it?"

    It was the authoritative presence of a Golden Core master.

    Wang Yu Wei’s heart of the path was unclouded; her mind remained entirely unaffected. She bowed slightly. "Master, this disciple is troubled by a matter."

    "Speak."

    The voice echoed once more, crystalline and resonant despite the roaring torrent.

    "This disciple has practiced the Supreme Emotionless Technique for one full cycle of sixty years," Wang Yu Wei said solemnly. "Yet I always feel something is lacking. I humbly seek your guidance."

    Years prior, her master had discovered her potential and brought her to the Biquan True Sect, where she formally received the Immortal Sect’s teachings.

    Later, with her master’s guidance, she uncovered the profound wonders of her dual cultivation body, advancing in her cultivation at a miraculous pace.

    To best harness this special physique, her master imparted this core technique: the Supreme Emotionless Technique.

    As its name implied, this technique severed emotions and suppressed one’s nature to solidify the cultivator’s mental state. It ensured that no matter what arose, their resolve would remain untouched and unwavering.

    Empowered by its effects, Wang Yu Wei traversed the path of cultivation unimpeded, wholly untouched by the Heart Demon’s influence.

    Moreover, this technique synergized perfectly with her dual cultivation body, vastly accelerating her progress.

    Yet as she entered peak Foundation Establishment and began condensing her Golden Core…

    She discovered this technique’s power was weakening. Her once-placid heart now rippled unnervingly, disturbed by external things.

    Such turmoil was unprecedented.

    Condensing a Golden Core was, after all, a pivotal step.

    Should problems arise now, or should she fall into madness, the consequences would be severe.

    Failure to achieve her breakthrough would render all prior effort meaningless.

    Thus she came today to her master’s sacred peak, seeking resolution.

    After speaking these words, only the roar of the waterfall surrounded her.

    Wang Yu Wei waited patiently for her master’s answer.

    One quarter-hour later, the voice resonated within her ears once more:

    "The Supreme Emotionless Technique requires forgetting emotions. Since it requires forgetting emotions, naturally it necessitates having them. Without emotions… how could one possibly forget?"
