Only at the Mahayana Stage Does the Reversal System Appear - Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Tianyuan Queen

. Tianyuan Empress Yu Yin was born into an ordinary family, but she was naturally beautiful and possessed exceptional talent. When she reached adulthood, the then-Crown Prince of Tianyuan, impressed by her beauty and talent, appointed her Crown Princess and gave her numerous rare treasures, intending to train her as a candidate for the Human Emperor. The

Tianyuan Dynasty’s intention to have the Crown Princess become the Human Emperor was well known.

The candidate for the Human Emperor wasn’t chosen by a single individual, but rather by the Nine Provinces’ Earth Veins.

Naturally, the Nine Provinces’ Earth Veins paid no attention to Yu Yin’s status, and she was successfully selected.

Her talent was exceptional among the candidates, making her a strong candidate for the title. However, among that group, the terrifying and hopeless Jiang Li was present, forcing her to become a supporting role.

Knowing it was impossible to surpass Jiang Li and become the Human Emperor, she voluntarily withdrew from the competition and returned to the Crown Prince’s side. By then, she had already reached the Fusion Stage.

The Crown Prince was furious at Yu Yin’s choice. He didn’t care about Jiang Li; he only knew that having a wife like the Human Emperor, someone he could toy with at will, had given him a sense of conquest.

But now, that was gone.

The Crown Prince had assumed Yu Yin was some small-time, easily bullied girl.

She’d been beaten and scolded by him since her first day as Crown Princess, and now he still felt he could treat her the same way.

Yu Yin resisted, and her resistance infuriated the Crown Prince. The two grappled, and Yu Yin, both in the Fusion Stage, was killed within ten moves.

If it weren’t for Jiang Li, Yu Yin would have been the most likely candidate to become the Human Emperor; Bai Hongtu hadn’t even believed he could defeat her.

Upon learning of his son’s tragic death, the Tianyuan Emperor was enraged and led the Imperial Fate into battle, intent on slaying this vicious woman.

The Imperial Fate raised the Tianyuan Emperor’s realm to the Tribulation Crossing Stage, making Yu Yin’s victory impossible. However, to everyone’s surprise, the Ruyi Gourd escaped the Imperial family’s control and fell into Yu Yin’s hands.

Armed with a divine weapon, Yu Yin, after a fierce battle, slew the Tianyuan Emperor and was crowned the Empress of Tianyuan.

“Some members of the imperial family are refusing to give up, clinging to past glories. Seeing I’ve lost the Ruyi Gourd, they’re trying to liaise with external forces to overthrow me.”

“I saw they were dithering and couldn’t figure out a plan, so I pretended to be possessed to lure them into action.”

Jiang Li paused for a moment, then asked, “Are you hoping to use this opportunity to break through to the Fusion Stage?”

Logically, after three hundred years, Jiang Li and Bai Hongtu of the same generation would have reached the Mahayana Stage, and Yu Yin should have reached the Tribulation Stage as well.

However, national destiny is both a blessing and a limitation; cultivating with national destiny would increase invisible resistance.

Yu Yin got out of bed, her snow-white silk socks gliding silently on the floor. She sat down at the table, concealing nothing from Jiang Li.

“Yes, between life and death lies both great fear and great opportunity. If I continue living this dull life, I wonder when I’ll ever break through to the Fusion Stage.”

“You take the Ruyi Gourd first. If I take it, it won’t be a life-or-death test. Only when I lose my escape route can it truly be considered a life-or-death test. So if I lose, you’ll watch me die. Don’t attack me, or I’ll hate you forever!”

Jiang Li knew Yu Yin’s character was like that, so he said, “I’ve recovered the other immortal artifacts, but not many people know about them yet. I’ll tell them and ask them to keep it secret for now.”

Yu Yin’s lips curled up in a smile, the frost melting, a breathtaking beauty.

“Master, I missed you so much!” The Ruyi Gourd flew from Jiang Li’s waist and flew towards Yu Yin. “There were so many immortal artifacts back then. If I hadn’t pretended to share a common hatred for the enemy, they wouldn’t have spared me! Master, please forgive me!”

Yu Yin stepped on the Ruyi Gourd, her delicate feet tumbling it through her soft white socks, and then kicked Jiang Li.

“Keep an eye on it, and don’t let it make a move when the time comes.”

“One more thing, this is my request,” Yu Yin said seriously. “If those people knew you’d arrived at the Tianyuan Dynasty, they’d be wary of our relationship and wouldn’t dare take action. Could you please announce to others that you’re going to another world to search for immortal artifacts, and that you’ll be gone for at least a few months?”

“Okay.”

After Jiang Li left, several palace maids hurried to the bedroom to tend to Yu Yin, indirectly asking what Jiang Li had said.

Yu Yin pretended not to understand the maids’ thoughts and casually mentioned that Jiang Li would be away from Jiuzhou for a few months, adding that she, too, wanted to leave and see different worlds.

One of the palace maids, upon hearing the news, waited on Yu Yin for a while before spreading the word.

…

Longyin City, not far from the Tianyuan Imperial City, is a prosperous city, home to a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator.

The two men and one woman felt somewhat helpless about the current situation.

“I’m sorry, if it weren’t for me, you would have left long ago.” Song Ying’s eyes were red, clearly having cried.

Qin Luan frowned. He couldn’t stand seeing others cry, especially Song Ying. He angrily declared, “The Long family is unreasonable and has forcibly abducted a woman. We have no qualms about helping them. It’s just a shame that no one in such a vast city like Longyin City has the courage to take action!”

“I warned you long ago that gaining experience in the Tianyuan Dynasty is a good thing, but taking action also requires considering the consequences. Why couldn’t we just kill the Third Young Master of the Long Family in secret? You two insisted on doing it in public!” Yuan Wuxing, Qin Luan’s master, hoped that this incident would teach Qin Luan and Song Ying a lesson.

Qin Luan and Yuan Wuxing had come to the Tianyuan Dynasty, the most chaotic of the human dynasties, to gain experience. Song Ying followed Qin Luan’s footsteps and arrived here.

Having grown up in the stable and orderly Great Zhou, Qin Luan and Song Ying were shocked by the chaos of the Tianyuan Dynasty.

The people here revered the use of force to the extreme. The government was only a minor power in Longyin City, and the Long family, a thousand-year-old family, held equal status with the city lord, often ignored the authorities and acted recklessly.

The third young master of the Long family publicly forcibly seized another man’s wife and daughter, and no one dared to intervene. If this had happened in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the third young master would have spent his life in prison, with food and shelter provided.

Qin Luan and Song Ying, empathizing with him, used their peak Foundation Establishment strength to severely beat the third young master of the Long family, who was in the Golden Core stage, and several of his lackeys.

Furthermore, Longyin City frequently held competitions, and Qin Luan, eyeing the rewards, entered one. Upon encountering the third young master of the Long family again, he ignored his threats and crippled him, feeling relieved and successfully achieving his Golden Core stage.

The third young master of the Long family had never suffered such humiliation before, so that night he sent a guest Yuanying-level official to kill Qin Luan. As for Song Ying, she seemed quite beautiful, so he took her as a concubine.

Who would have thought that behind them was Yuan Wuxing, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, defeating the veteran Nascent Soul guest official with his early Nascent Soul stage.

The three knew that if they continued like this, they would definitely alarm the Dragon family’s God Transformation Ancestor, so they wanted to leave.

But with the local tyrants of the Long family around, it was not so easy to leave.

“It seems that you three are living a fulfilling life.” Jiang Li smiled and pushed the door open.
