482: This doesn't look like a monarch; she looks more like a female thief stealing wine.

When the Dragon Soul entered the Dragon Vein, the entire Great Qi territory suddenly shone with a golden light!

In the Imperial Capital, a phantom golden giant Dragon soared into the sky, and its high-pitched Dragon roar echoed throughout the Imperial Capital, and for a million li around, it was all that earth-shattering Dragon roar!

A domineering, majestic, and supremely noble Aura was revealed, causing everyone who witnessed this phenomenon to prostrate themselves in worship!

"A golden giant Dragon, the giant Dragon has appeared again!"

"What a mighty and domineering Dragon's might, it's as if it's real!"

"Do you feel that this Dragon's might seems even more powerful than the giant Dragon that appeared before? I feel as if there's a real golden giant Dragon watching us!"

"Yes, I even want to kneel and worship, my Qi and blood within me seem to have become smoother."

"I feel my Realm is about to Breakthrough, this Dragon's might seems to carry some kind of auspicious omen."

In the Great Qi Imperial Capital, numerous Cultivators looked at the golden giant Dragon in the sky. Whether they were commoners or Cultivators, everyone felt something different at this moment.

Swoosh!

In the sky, a continuous drizzle suddenly began to fall. The most peculiar thing was that the rainwater was exceptionally clear, carrying a faint fragrance, unlike rain at any other time.

As the rainwater fell to the ground, lush green grass sprouted from the soil, full of vibrant life.

"Spiritual Rain! This is heavenly Spiritual Rain!"

"My old injuries are all healed!"

"I'm also healed! An old injury I sustained ten years ago, which I thought would never heal in this lifetime, has actually healed after being drenched by this Spiritual Rain! Thank the heavens!"

"Thank the Divine Dragon for bestowing this sweet dew!"

Countless people benefited greatly from this Spiritual Rain.

The commoners, who were originally somewhat fearful and unsure whether it was a blessing or a curse, all prostrated themselves in worship.

"Heavenly Spiritual Rain descends, the Divine Dragon protects! From this day forward, our Great Qi's fortune will prosper, and the Great Qi Imperial Dynasty's destiny will flourish!"

In the Martial Suppression Division, Fourteenth Imperial Uncle stood in the atrium, letting the Spiritual Rain fall upon him, unable to resist expressing the surge of pride in his heart.

The Great Qi Imperial Dynasty had been established for thousands of years, and such a miraculous event had never occurred!

Moreover, it happened at this critical juncture.

Empress Yan Yuzhu was about to break free from the shackles of the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi, and Great Qi was expanding its territory. Once it lost the protection of the Dragon Qi and the support of Empress Yan Yuzhu, Great Qi would not be able to advance further.

In fact, it might even be targeted by Imperial Dynasties secretly displeased with Great Qi, leading to its decline.

Now it was good. He clearly felt that the giant Dragon in the sky was related to the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi of the Imperial Family. Clearly, Empress Yan Yuzhu had achieved this!

But how exactly was it achieved?

This would require an audience with Empress Yan Yuzhu to find out.

"Our Great Qi Imperial Dynasty's destiny is flourishing, and this Imperial Dao Dragon Qi is even stronger than before. As long as this Dragon Qi is present, Great Qi can remain prosperous for thousands of years!"

Shen Xingmen was one of the few among them who could perceive the changes in the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi.

Many of the esoteric arts he was skilled in were related to augmenting Dragon Qi.

Xie Tianjian also showed a slight smile. He was not a person skilled in words, and even spoke very little, maintaining an expressionless face every day.

But now, a hint of excitement also welled up in his heart.

To protect Great Qi, he was willing to give everything. Seeing Great Qi become even stronger was his heartfelt wish.

Buzz!!!

Just as the several people were enjoying the Spiritual Rain, a scroll descended from the sky, and under everyone's gaze, it slowly unfurled.

"It's Your Majesty's imperial edict!"

Fourteenth Imperial Uncle felt it immediately and respectfully saluted.

Seeing the imperial edict was like seeing Empress Yan Yuzhu; this was known by everyone in the Great Qi Imperial Dynasty.

"Imperial Decree: Three days hence, the civil and military officials are to attend the Imperial Court Assembly. By Imperial Order!"

A short sentence, without explaining anything.

However, all the civil and military officials of Great Qi heard it!

"Your subjects receive the imperial edict!"

In the Martial Suppression Division, Fourteenth Imperial Uncle, Xie Tianjian, Situ Kuanglei, and Shen Xingmen all bowed respectfully and received the imperial edict.

"Imperial Uncle, this sudden summons from Your Majesty, could it be related to the previous manifestation of the Imperial Dao Dragon Qi?"

Situ Kuanglei was also a person who was careful despite his rough exterior.

Imperial Court Assemblies were usually only convened for major affairs.

Normally, morning court was held every day, and unless it was a major event, there was no need to convene a grand court assembly; it could be resolved directly at morning court.

But now, it was clearly not that simple.

During these three days, Yan Yuzhu would likely not attend court again.

Yan Yongyang looked at the imperial edict in his hand, and for some reason, a very strange thought arose in his mind.

It seemed that something significant was about to happen.

None of them spoke, but instead dispersed... In the Imperial Capital, within the palace, in a luxurious hall.

Shen Tianxing sat casually on a chair, a table in front of him, and Empress Yan Yuzhu personally poured wine for him.

With delicacies, fragrant wine, and a beautiful woman by his side, Shen Tianxing felt a sense of trance.

When he left Great Qi, he was merely a subject under Yan Yuzhu, and he didn't even have the opportunity to meet her.

But now, he could freely enter and exit the inner court of the palace.

"Come, taste the tribute wine from this palace and see how it differs from what you drink outside."

Yan Yuzhu, in a white long dress, had a softer look in her eyes, less of the usual domineering Aura of an Empress.

This was her feminine side.

In all of Great Qi, no man had ever seen this side of her. Before, only Xing Yao had seen it.

Shen Tianxing was naturally not polite. He picked up the wine, they clinked glasses lightly, and drank it all.

"Good wine, this brewing technique can only be perfected by our Human Race."

"Demons and such can at most just imitate, but they can never grasp the essence."

This was not boasting, but a conclusion Shen Tianxing had reached after tasting many so-called fine wines during his long time in the Inner Sea.

Compared to the wine in this palace, they truly couldn't measure up.

"If you like it, when we leave this time, we'll take it all with us!"

Yan Yuzhu smiled, resting her chin on her hand, looking at Shen Tianxing.

Shen Tianxing's eyes lit up. It had to be said, the wine in this palace was indeed good, but he hadn't expected that an Empress of a nation could also be so playful.

This was not in line with her usual demeanor. If others saw it, they would probably be greatly surprised.

How was this a ruler of a nation?

She was more like a female thief stealing wine.

"Are you truly decided on letting go? Once we leave, we don't know when we'll return."

"This world is vast!"

Shen Tianxing looked at her and said.

This was to remind Yan Yuzhu to consider it carefully.

Yan Yuzhu heard this and said, "I have waited ten years for this day!"

"If Great Qi hadn't been without an heir back then, I might have left ten years ago."

Shen Tianxing no longer tried to persuade her. He felt that Yan Yuzhu yearned for freedom, not to be confined within a small court.

With her talent, Great Qi would only become a burden to her. Her talent was stronger than those two Emperor's Companions. As long as she was given time, Yan Yuzhu's future achievements would be immeasurable.
