Chapter 485 - I am his mother
Translator: Aran
As these words were said, the complexions of Lin Zheng and Yu Feiyan greatly changed in an instant.
The two exchanged a glance, but ultimately did not say anything.
There were not many descendants of the current Snow Emperor. His sons had long died early, and then Yu Xiaoxing came to be born later as a girl. Afterwards the Snow Emperor could not have another heir for this period of time, then had a strange thought. He made this Princess who was a girl, into the Crown Prince.
To make a girl control and rule the empire, this matter seemed somewhat brash.
In the Age of Sects, amongst those super sects, there had once been female sect leaders and female matriarches appearing. Furthermore, there were some female sect leaders that had shaken the world.
But for the ruler of an empire to be female, this matter was very rarely heard of.
Although it was matters concerning the entire Snow Empire, but the Snow Emperor decided on going through with this matter with just one sentence. However, the Snow Emperor still consulted on the opinion of several of the ministers that he trusted the most.
Afterwards, when Yu Xiaoxing had grown up a little, she was sent towards Youyan Pass. She asked the [Painting Saint] Liu Yuqing to be her master, cultivating her mental state and polishing her will and determination while also familiarizing herself with the situation at the border.
Enlisted in the army, this was completely raising her as the next in line monarch.
But in such a process, Xing'er had assumed the attire and identity of a man. Apart from Liu Yuqing and Lu Zhaoge, there was absolutely no one that knew she was a girl.
She did not interfere with the military decisions made in Youyan Pass. The large majority of the time she only acted as an observer, familiarizing herself with civilian life and military affairs. From a young ageg, she had begun to interact with such matters.
The [Painting Saint] Liu Yuqing was a person with foresight, and was equal to Qin and Lin these two people. His true identity was one of the five absolute peaks of the Age of Sects, the Heavenly Painting. He had once been a person with significant fame.
But Liu Yuqing had been engaged in a bitter battle with one of his fated enemies. He had suffered heavy injuries, and although he killed his opponent, he was heavily injured, almost dead. Under the treatment of Lu Zhaoge, he became one of the guests of Lu Zhaoge. Although his strength was not as it was in the past, but the [Cultivating Heart Arts] that he cultivated in was still as amazing as ever.
The Snow Emperor made Yu Xiaoxing accept Liu Yuqing as her master. Apart from the shocking experience of the [Heavenly Saint], he was also one of the rarely seen scholars of the Age of Sects. His vision was wide and he had sharp insight. His strategy and military deployments were known to be top class, and what was even more exceptional was his [Cultivating Heart Arts].
The Snow Emperor hoped that the Yu Xiaoxing, who was female, would be able to train to have the heart of an emperor. This wouldhelp her fill the biggest defect in her identity, the fact that she was a girl.
This matter was originally hidden.
It was even known that in the higher echelons of the empire that there it already had a Crown Prince. But this Crown Prince was far too mysterious, and there were very little ministers who had ever seen the Crown Prince's visage. Even if one saw him, they had only seen his body substitute.
Apart from several extremely loyal ministers, there was absolutely no one that knew the Crown Prince was a girl, and it was the current Princess Yu Xiaoxing
According to the original plan, after returning from Youyan Pass, Yu Xiaoxing would still use the identity of a man and take over everything of the Crown Prince's residence. She would gradually become immersed into the character of the Crown Prince and be given the mantle of the Snow Emperor.

Although she cultivated an emperor's heart and used the [Cultivating Heart Arts] to train her heart, she had gone against her nature. The young heart of a girl could not be utterly eliminated or changed no matter what.
Ye Qingyu's appearance caused the [Cultivating Heart Arts] that Yu Xiaoxing trained in to disappear.
It was unknown when, but Ye Qingyu's name and shadow began to be deeply imprinted in Yu Xiaoxing's heart. She was unable to get rid or erase this.
As the saying goes, ‘seeing the divine king once can ruin your entire life’. Perhaps this was what it described.
After returning to the capital, Yu Xiaoxing was originally going to accept the arrangements of her father and began inheriting the power of the Imperial family.
In these days, Yu Xiaoxing had, for the last few times, reassumed the identity of being a girl, and went to Ye Qingyu. She wanted to make Ye Qingyu know just what was the true her.
Perhaps this could be counted as the last remembrance of a period of emotions.
It was only that no one had expected matters would develop to such an extent.
In such a situation, the natural personality of Yu Xiaoxing was fully and utterly exhibited.
As a girl, her heart and her gentle emotions instantly destroyed the tens of years of cultivation she had in the [Cultivating Heart Arts]
At that moment, Yu Xiaoxing felt that she was no longer a Princess, anot not a Crown Prince. furthermore, she did not care about the so called secret or the greater good of the Empire.
At that moment, she was only a simple, normal girl.
She was a girl that wished for the person she liked to recover.
Within her palm, there was a golden jade Imperial Seal with dragons inscripted on it. By using the name of the Crown Prince, she had already made the preparations to shoulder the consequences when Lin Zheng and the others ordered the people to back away.
Li Guangbi, Li Qiushui and the others were so shocked they could not utter any words.
Although they rarely saw the Crown Prince, but they had seen this Imperial Seal before.
The Imperial Seal was like the Crown Prince had descended with himself. After all, Yu Xiaoxing possessed the seal of the next monarch, and since she had said such words, these had already made many things very clear.
Li Guangbi and Qu Hanshan had wealthy experiences. At this time, if they could not discern the truth, they would have really wasted their lives.
"Move away!"
Yu Xiaoxing lifted the Imperial seal up, saying word by word. historical
Lin Zheng and the others slowly moved away.
They could not help but retreat.
She was the monarch in waiting, the future Emperor.
No matter what, as the ministers, they must listen to the will that came from the Imperial Seal.
Furthermore, Ye Qingyu's identity was something that only they had guessed at. As for Yu Xiaoxing, with her bloodline, this was already something that concerned the matters of the Imperial family. Even if they considered things further and had concerns about the future implications of this, they could not immerse themselves in this matter.
Song Xiaojun gave a look to Yu Xiaoxing.
Faintly, she felt that this girl was familiar, as if she had some impression of her. It was as if she had seen her somewhere, but it was only just so...
Faintly nodding to Yu Xiaoxing, Song Xiaojun carried Ye Qingyu, soaring to the skies, turning into a stream of light...
Yu Xiaoxing stared dumbly at the location where the light disappeared, tears once again dripping down her face powerlessly.
As that light left, it was like it had sucked away all the energy within her body. She faintly quivered, her vision going black, as her figure fell downwards facing the skies...
"Xing'er..."
Lu Heng was greatly shocked and immediately rushed over to assist.
At this time---
Xiu!
Light flickered.
There was a flash in everyone's vision, as they saw Song Xiaojun once again returning.
"Just what is this?”
Everyone was taken aback.
One could see that this Queen of Darkness had shock and rage written on her face. She stared at the skies, as if she wanted to look at something. The black lotus flames madly surged around her body, as if she wanted to let out a heaven shattering strike...
Everyone turned their heads to look.
Without knowing when, a white-clothed woman with a peerless face and completely jade-like white hair, had appeared as if she had just stepped through another dimension and appeared. It was unknown when this had happened, as there was no fluctuation or aura that was released. Step by step, she came downwards.
It was unknown what words could be used to describe the aura of this woman.
At this moment, there was a thought that was born in everyone's mind: Could this be a fairy that had come downwards from an immortal realm?
"Who are you? Why have you blocked me?" Song Xiaojun questioned angrily.
The her at this time seemed to display an anger and attitude that was like a young girl, that was more suited to someone around her age.

There was a gentle smile on her peerless and initricate face, as she said intimately, "Although the [First Class Black Lotus Life Healing Arts] of the Unmoving City of Darkness is powerful, but it cannot entirely heal Little Yu's wounds. The Heavenly Punishment thunder is a Dao wound, it is not as simple as you imagine.”
"You..." Song Xiaojun's complexion changed, falling silent for a brief moment. Then she said angrily again, "Who are you? Why do you know that the [First Class Black Lotus Life Healing Arts] can't heal brother Qingyu's wounds? Why... do I have to listen to you?"
Even Song Xiaojun was not clear as to why it was that when she faced the white-clothed and white-haired woman in front of her, she could not muster her aura. It was as if she was not on the same level as her.
Perhaps it was because her opponent was far too powerful.
The young queen of darkness consoled herself in her heart like so.
After all, in the skies high up, the two had already exchanged blows. The terrifying and unfathomable strength of that woman had caused Song Xiaojun to not help but return and retreat in but a moment, without any chance or opportunity to resist.
Ever since her bloodline of darkness had begun immersing with her, she had never encountered such a powerful enemy.
It was so strong that she was completely inhuman.
But, the words that the white-haired woman said caused this angry and young Queen of Darkness to be completely speechless after being taken aback.
She said, "Child, you have to believe in me, because... I am Little Yu's mother."
Song Xiaojun was dumbstruck.
Her frost-like cold expression, that would not change no matter what she encountered, had a transformation. But very quickly, within five or six breaths of time, her beautiful eyes that had been filled with emotions once again turned icy.
As if nothing had happened whatsoever.
"Oh."
She let out a low voice like so without any emotions.
With a movement from her palm, a surge of black lotus flames slowly sent Ye Qingyu over in front of the white-haired woman.
The white-haired woman received Ye Qingyu. Her gaze lay for a while on Song Xiaojun, evaluating her from top to bottom. There was a strange expression as a faint smile appeared on her face. She nodded her head.
"I am called Yu Junhan." She smiled faintly at Song Xiaojun.
"Oh." Song Xiaojun nodded her head.
Then her gaze fell briefly on Ye Qingyu's body. Without the slightest of hesitation, and carrying the little white rabbit, she turned into a stream of light, soared to the skies, and disappeared in its far off dome!
She did not pay another glance at Yu Xiaoxing.
She did not look at Lin Zheng and the others.
Lin Zheng originally wanted to say something to Song Xiaojun, but he could not interject at all.
When Yu Junhan said such words, Lin Zheng's head shook, as if something had exploded within his mind. His thoughts were in a compelte mess. Even he did not know what he was thinking...
"To think... That it was really like this..."
"Ye Qingyu really is the child of Her Highness... but that isn't right. The Peerless War God disappeared over a hundred years ago, and Her Highness retreated after that time. If he really was the child of those two, Ye Qingyu should be over a hundred years old, why is it..."
Lin Zheng was completely disconcerted---
