C195 (1/2)
On the north side of the palace, above the Prime Minister's Mansion.
On top of the carved bed in the bedroom, Tang Xian sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, both of his hands forming a strange hand seal in front of him, his chest rising and falling gently, with every breath he took, forming a perfect cycle, and with the circulation of the Qi, a faint white Qi flowed through his nose and mouth, into his body, nourishing his bones and body.
”Phew.” Tang Xian slowly let out a breath of turbid air as his eyes suddenly opened, revealing a faint white light. ”This Dao of Cultivation is indeed profound, I was lucky enough to experience it after so many years, it's truly wonderful.”
Ever since Xue Tianya ascended the throne, Tang Xian had always been the pillar of the imperial court, and now, as a young man, under his daughter's constant suggestions, he had finally attempted to cultivate. This attempt was not important, but the intoxicating feeling made Tang Xian fall for it and fall for it.
After stretching his numb ankles and thighs, Tang Xian got off the bed. With his Qi Refinement Realm, he did not have the ability to ignore all kinds of exhaustion.
Simply moving about in the room, an aged voice came from outside: ”Master, Lord Mo Li is here.”
”Yes, this Immortal Master Mo Li has a good temperament and does not have much of an air about him.” After casually replying and changing her clothes, Tang Xian walked out of the room and smiled at the old man dressed in green who was outside: ”Let's go.”
Looking at Tang Xian's spirited face, the green robed elder nodded his head, and when he turned around, his muddy old eyes revealed a hint of undetectable happiness, his master being able to cultivate to such an extent was truly a happy occasion.
Following the Prime Minister's guidance as he passed through the front courtyard, Zhou Tong's footsteps stopped right outside the solemn welcoming hall. He lightly knocked on the door, and then gently pushed it open.
The hall was very spacious, there were many people within, the prime minister, Tang Xian, was already waiting in the hall. Below his left hand sat some cultivators who had authority and were not weak. Beside them were some of the more outstanding younger generation members of the Prime Minister's Hall.
A somewhat puzzled gaze swept across the cultivators. Among them was an old man wearing a white robe. The old man had a smile on his face and his eyes sparkled brightly.
”The half-back deficiency, but the Prime Minister's residence does not lack experts overseeing it.” With a sweep of his mind, Zhou Tong immediately confirmed the elder's cultivation, and in his heart, he secretly sighed.
Beside Tang Xian sat a young man and woman, they both wore the same white robe, the man was around twenty years old, he was handsome, and with a tall and straight body, he was extremely charming. His cultivation, was around the same as Zhou Tong, and on the other side, there was a young lady who was about the same age as Zhou Tong, which Zhou Tong found somewhat familiar.
There was a green jade pendant hanging from the girl's tender earlobes. As it swayed slightly, it emitted a crisp jade sound. Suddenly, a pampered expression appeared …
”Lord Mo Li is safe.” The young girl slightly bowed, and said with a sweet voice, ”Does this Lord Mo Li still remember me?”
Hearing this, Zhou Tong muttered to himself for a moment, then remembered that this woman, along with Xue Yang, had once led the young cultivators of the imperial family, and was even saved by him.
Seeing that Zhou Tong seemed to have remembered it, Tang Xin smiled sweetly and said, ”My daughter has always remembered Lord Mo Li's saving grace from that day, and I am finally able to thank you.”
”Second level of the body clearing, I remember that was the last time he used it, right? If it's not activated by some external object, then it's a pretty good talent. ” With a soft praise in his heart, Zhou Tong's gaze stopped on the girl's cute little face for a moment before he moved his gaze away.
Zhou Tong's actions caused Tang Xin to feel somewhat surprised. Although she was not the kind of girl who thought that the world was surrounding his, she knew clearly how beautiful and refined he was, and it was fine for his to be in a sorry state the last time they met. This time, he had meticulously dressed up, yet Zhou Tong's casual actions really surprised her.
Zhou Tong did not mind, but for some people, he cared a lot about them. The young man standing beside Tang Xin, after seeing Zhou Tong being so indifferent, clenched his fists tightly.
”Greetings, Master Tang.” Walking forward, Zhou Tong cupped his fists and smiled to Tang Xian who was in a position of power.
”Hehe, Honorable Mo Li, quickly sit. Servants, serve tea.” Seeing Zhou Tong's arrival, Tang Xian immediately nodded, and waved.
Smiling and nodding his head, Zhou Tong acted as if he did not see the young man who had a displeased look on his face. He turned his head and scanned the hall, and then sat down beside Tang Xian.
