"Meng Qingzhou, where do you think Sacred Mountain is? It's hidden so well that countless people have searched for it over thousands of years, but no one has ever found a trace."
Dongfang Liuli sat on Meng Qingzhou's lap, her arms wrapped around his neck, their noses touching, as she whispered softly.
Meng Qingzhou's Adam's apple bobbed as he felt the warm breath and rich fragrance coming from her, making it hard to resist a taste.
"Sacred Mountain…" Meng Qingzhou wrapped his arm around Dongfang Liuli's slender waist and said calmly, "It's far away in the sky but right in front of us."
"Not being able to find it doesn't mean it's hidden deep; it's just that it's invisible and intangible. Sacred Mountain is a Great Emperor grade spiritual treasure, passed down from the era of creation by the Buddha of No-Self and No-Form."
"The Buddha of No-Self and No-Form created Sacred Mountain and endowed it with three functions."
Dongfang Liuli asked curiously, "What three functions?"
Hearing this, Meng Qingzhou smiled without answering and pointed to his lips.
No taste, no talk.
"You've become naughty," Dongfang Liuli stared at him, her shy eyes like clear water under her brows, her cheeks slightly red. She closed her eyes and leaned in for a light kiss.
Only then was Meng Qingzhou satisfied and said, "The three functions of Sacred Mountain are: No-Form, No-Distance, and No-Weight."
"No-Form means that Sacred Mountain can hide in plain sight. Even if it's right in front of you, without the key to open it, no one can enter Sacred Mountain unless a Sky-Reaching Realm expert arrives. Moreover, No-Form also means it can freely change size, covering thousands of miles or shrinking to the size of a speck of dust."
"No-Distance gives Sacred Mountain the ability to travel vast distances in an instant."
"No-Weight allows Sacred Mountain's weight to be as heavy as an Immortal Mountain or as light as a feather."
Meng Qingzhou tilted his head and gently scraped Dongfang Liuli's delicate nose with his finger, "Now, do you understand?"
At these words, a flash of astonishment appeared deep in Dongfang Liuli's eyes.
Sacred Mountain is a Great Emperor grade spiritual treasure!
Throughout the Wilderness, counting ancient and modern times, there are only a handful of Great Emperor spiritual treasures! Many of them have been lost in the vast passage of time.
The Western Buddhist Kingdom hid it well. A Great Emperor grade spiritual treasure, passed down from the era of creation, and not a single word of legend or history remains.
"No-Form, No-Distance, No-Weight…" Dongfang Liuli murmured, repeating the words, then asked, "So, where exactly is Sacred Mountain?"
Meng Qingzhou tilted his head, scratched his forehead, and sighed inwardly at how curious his wife was.
Every time something big happened, she would always come to him for answers, persistently asking for all the details.
No wonder Empress Qin Liuli valued her. Such attention to detail, which leader wouldn't like it?
"I said, Sacred Mountain is far away in the sky but right in front of us…" Meng Qingzhou tilted his head, his eyes closed under the black silk, yet it seemed as if he could see through thousands of miles, gazing towards the Western Buddhist Kingdom, and said calmly, "The sky above the Western Buddhist Kingdom's vast territory is Sacred Mountain, activating its No-Form and No-Weight functions."
Boom…
At this moment, a thunderclap echoed in the clear sky.
Just like the thunder rolling in Dongfang Liuli's mind, but she remained calm, her expression slightly cold, her phoenix eyes brewing a storm, her red lips pressed together in silence.
The Minister of Personnel, hiding in a side room, had already lifted the seal. Hearing these words, his breath halted for a moment, his old eyes filled with shock, his mouth slightly agape, his eardrums felt pierced, and a buzzing sound filled his ears, making him feel unwell.
The Minister of Personnel immediately sent a message to the Empress, anxiously saying, "Your Majesty! The Prime Minister must have been exposed at this moment! The sky of the Buddhist Kingdom is where Sacred Mountain is located. The Prime Minister's million-strong army marching into the Buddhist Kingdom is like beating drums to sneak into a bandit's den. Please, Your Majesty, make a wise decision to save the Prime Minister and the pillar of the state!"
Dongfang Liuli did not rush to respond but turned to Meng Qingzhou and asked, "Qingzhou, if you were the Empress, how would you save Jiang Canghai?"
The Minister of Personnel's eyelids twitched wildly.
The Empress was actually asking the Empress' Husband for decision-making advice, unprecedented! The Empress used to make any decision only after thorough consideration, even if it was the strategist Jiang Canghai, he could only provide some suggestions.
Even if Jiang Canghai's suggestions were excellent, the Empress usually wouldn't fully adopt them, always adding some of her own insights.
At this moment, the Minister of Personnel deeply felt the Empress' change…
The Empress was really different now.
Her domineering and aggressive nature had been worn down significantly, replaced by a more understanding and gentle demeanor.
"Your Majesty, she…" The Minister of Personnel wanted to seek advice from the two women beside him.
But Wu Die saw through his confusion at a glance, her charming eyes meaningful, she transmitted, "As long as the Empress' Husband is here, the Empress has a backbone, she won't be lost. The Empress' Husband is the Empress' calming medicine, her heart-clearing spell… Now you understand why the Empress rushed here as soon as she heard the Empress' Husband had awakened."
The Minister of Personnel swallowed hard and tentatively transmitted, "Because… at that time, the Empress could no longer suppress the aggression in her heart?"
Wu Die raised a finger to her red lips, signaling secrecy, this was the secret of the Green Tiles Small House.
"I understand, I understand." The Minister of Personnel nodded repeatedly.
He never expected that the Empress' Husband was not only skilled in both literature and martial arts, knowledgeable about ancient and modern times, but also so important to the Empress!
No wonder Su Qingqiu and Wu Die were so anxious when the Lord of the Ancient Divine City tried to take him away. So that's why!
For a moment, the Minister of Personnel marveled, "Since when did the Empress' Husband become the pillar of the Great Jin Dynasty…"
"And the people of Great Jin know so little about the Empress' Husband, unaware of his importance."
……
"If I were the Empress?"
Meng Qingzhou rubbed his chin, lost in thought, recalling the novel's plot.
After a long time, he slowly spoke, "If I were the Empress and knew the secrets of the Buddhist Kingdom, I would, of course, immediately pass this information to Jiang Canghai. I would choose to trust Jiang Canghai!"
"Since Jiang Canghai is the pillar of the state, as the Emperor, I should trust him!"
"Of course, I'm not the Emperor, I would make several preparations to prevent any accidents."
Meng Qingzhou patted Dongfang Liuli's firm buttocks, signaling her to get up for a moment.
Dongfang Liuli obediently got up and even thoughtfully brought a cup of tea for Meng Qingzhou to soothe his throat before he continued.
