My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

When Prince Ning’s Commandery Princess uttered "Crown Prince of Great Chu," Qin Beifeng was struck as if by lightning, standing frozen in place for a long while before he could regain his composure.

Cheng Guang looked at the Commandery Princess, and seeing her behave this way, couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head, patting Qin Beifeng’s shoulder.

"We’re leaving."

With that, Cheng Guang walked slowly towards the courtyard exit.

Qin Beifeng paused, glancing at the Commandery Princess and then turning to look at Cheng Guang, the Princely Heir.

He bit his lip, gave the Commandery Princess a deep bow, and after paying his respects once again, he turned and followed Cheng Guang’s steps.

The Commandery Princess’s starry eyes followed Cheng Guang’s retreating figure, suddenly calling out, "Aren’t you curious about what the future holds?"

Without turning back, Cheng Guang responded with a carefree laugh, "There’s no need to know, my sixth sense tells me it’s probably nothing good."

"Otherwise, it wouldn’t come to ’Tomorrow’s Yellow Flower’ extent."

"When you and I can meet again in the future, you might as well tell me then."

The Commandery Princess slightly tilted her head, her smile blossoming beautifully as she gently nodded.

"Very well, we have a deal," she agreed.

Cheng Guang, with his back to the Commandery Princess, waved his hand and said, "We’re off."

Cheng Guang left the small courtyard with Qin Beifeng.

Their figures gradually disappeared under the watchful gaze of the Commandery Princess.

Only when she could no longer see Cheng Guang did the Commandery Princess raise her gaze once more to the heavens above.

Through the clouds veiling the sky, the Commandery Princess seemed to see, beyond the dense mists, a figure in white robes, taking a leisurely nap upon the clouds.

With a light tap of her foot, the Commandery Princess took measured steps into the firmament.

Her exquisite visage slowly shifted, becoming cold, noble, and indifferent—a stark contrast to her demeanor when facing Cheng Guang.

With every ascent, the aura about the Commandery Princess rose steadily.

The winds changed, and the clouds swirled.

This sight drew the attention of everyone in the Great Yan imperial capital.

Deep within the Imperial Palace of Great Yan, in the Temple of Heavenly Heart.

The Emperor of Great Yan was playing chess with Li Longhu when he seemed to sense something. His aged eyes moved from the chessboard to the distant direction of Prince Ning’s estate.

He saw the Commandery Princess in her purple robes, ascending step by step to the heavens, her majestic presence growing stronger.

The Emperor’s pupils involuntarily shrank at the sight.

"What’s going on with this girl?" he wondered.

"Why has her aura changed so much in such a short time?"

"Is she approaching the Heavenly Human Realm?"

Li Longhu, clothed in a black robe with hands clasped inside his sleeves, his profound eyes surveying the Commandery Princess in mid-air, pondered the Emperor’s words thoughtfully.

His deep gaze flickered with surprise and uncertainty.

Even for Li Longhu, Great Yan’s National Preceptor and a powerhouse of the Heavenly Human Realm, the shift in the Commandery Princess’s aura was somewhat incomprehensible.

"Why has the Commandery Princess’s aura risen so much in such a short time?" he muttered to himself.

He was equally puzzled.

At the same time.

At the location of Great Yan’s Eastern Palace.

Li Zhongxin, pale as always, sat in his wheelchair, gently holding a jade hairpin and occasionally coughing, his expression inexplicably somber.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, he abruptly looked up in the direction of Prince Ning’s estate.

Through the thick and lofty palace walls, he could faintly discern a graceful and noble figure rising step by step toward the heavens.

Nearing the clouds.

"What is this?"

"Commandery Princess...?"

"Why has her aura risen so much all of a sudden?"

"What is she planning to do?"

Li Zhongxin watched the Commandery Princess above the vault of heaven and was dumbstruck.

He felt that her presence was one he could not match, not even tenfold.

Merely the pressure emanating from the Commandery Princess’s aura at the moment seemed to suggest that she could suppress him with a flick of her finger.

"Hiss... She couldn’t have been hiding her true strength all along, now revealing it just before the event of the Four Great Tests to assert dominance?"

Li Zhongxin’s eyes flickered with this thought, and then he felt a twinge of a headache. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Gazing into the depths of the heavens, at the figure of the Commandery Princess, he clenched his teeth in the dark, while at the same time, he silently balled his hand into a fist.

For a moment, he felt that the throne was possibly slipping beyond his reach.

......

Just after leaving Prince Ning’s estate.

Cheng Guang was walking along the street toward the teahouse when he sensed the aura emanating from the Commandery Princess behind him, pausing for a moment to look back at her.

Aware of the aura radiating from the Commandery Princess, and the mounting might that grew as she ascended step by step into the heavens, he was first startled, then shook his head with a wry laugh.

"I had meant to get you out of here early."

"And yet now, it’s you who’s made me leave."

"No wonder you were not worried about your own safety at all."

While Cheng Guang did not know why the Commandery Princess’s cultivation strength had surged so much, it didn’t concern him. He chuckled, shook his head again, and continued on to the teahouse.

Once at the teahouse, Cheng Guang summoned Qing Luan and instructed her to have people pack their luggage, as they would be heading back to Great Zhou soon.

Qing Luan, puzzled, voiced her confusion, "Princely Heir, are we returning now?"

"Isn’t it too soon?"

"We’ve only just arrived at Great Yan."

Cheng Guang shook his head, softly patted Qing Luan’s head, and said with a smile, "It’s not too early. Once a matter is settled, it’s time to go back."

Half understanding, Qing Luan nodded her head. Without any thought of defiance, she promptly began making arrangements after acknowledging Cheng Guang’s command.
