  At night.

  Lin Jiufeng was quietly cultivating with the white cat.

  This was the first time in three months that they managed to sleep on the frost jade bed.

  Lin Jiufeng believed that this situation would remain as it was in the future.

  However, as the sky turned dark, the night pervaded the land.

  The moonlight was akin to that of a waterfall, yet also like a veil that draped over one’s body.

  On such a beautiful night, Lin Jiufeng and the white cat abruptly stopped their cultivation.

  They raised their heads and looked at the two cherry trees.

  They couldn’t help but quietly admire the scene in front of them.

  A man and a cat.

  The two blooming cherry trees complemented each other.

  The pink cherry blossoms fluttered in the evening breeze.

  Lin Jiufeng was tall and slender. He wore a dust-free suit with a snow-white collar.

  On his shoulder stood the little white cat.

  This scene was silent and picturesque as if it was from a painting that had come alive.

  But such a beautiful scene was broken by the sound of opening gates.

  Dong!

  The gates of the Cold Palace have opened once again.

  The sound immediately scattered the painting-like scene.

  Lin Jiufeng and the white cat looked at each other, speechless.

  Lin Jiufeng scanned with his Divine Soul and discovered that the person who opened the door was Princess Yulin.

  She left in the morning and immediately came back in the evening?

  Meow!

  The white cat called out. She looked at Lin Jiufeng and remembered what Lin Jiufeng said in the day. She couldn’t help but snicker.

  Back then, she said that Lin Jiufeng was being too idealistic.

  Sure enough, as the white cat predicted, Princess Yulin came again.

  But the white cat didn’t think that she would come so soon.

  “What do you plan to do?” The white cat asked Lin Jiufeng.

  “Let’s observe for now. She didn’t come here alone,” Lin Jiufeng said softly.

  He saw the young man behind Princess Yulin.

  Emperor De!

  Even though Lin Jiufeng had never seen Emperor De before, he still recognized him at first glance.

  Emperor De looked a little similar to himself.

  He also had that temperament and the dignity that belonged solely to an Emperor.

  Even though Emperor De still wasn’t directly handling the state affairs yet, he had accumulated quite a lot of experience from the guidance of the court officials.

  ‘Did Princess Yulin bring Emperor De here to let him see the true colors of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect?’ Lin Jiufeng thought silently.

  The power of his Divine Soul distorted the space around him.

  He stood still with the white cat.

  Princess Yulin closed the door of the Cold Palace and was about to walk in…

  When Emperor De spoke curiously, “This is the Cold Palace. The sinners of the royal family are imprisoned here. Why did you bring me here?”

  Princess Yulin said, “I brought you here to let you see the treasures that Grandpa Emperor left behind. There’s no one in the Cold Palace anyway.”

  Princess Yulin—who had lived here for three months—didn’t discover Lin Jiufeng at all.

  “Is there no one else in the Cold Palace?” Emperor De looked around curiously.

  “That’s right, I’ve been living here for three months now.” Princess Yulin nodded.

  “But when I was studying history, I remember very clearly that about 40 years ago, a crown prince made a mistake and his cultivation was destroyed. He was then banished to the Cold Palace. Until now, there has been no news of his death.”

  Emperor De followed Princess Yulin in as he spoke.

  “You also know that it was about 40 years ago. At that time, even Father Emperor hadn’t been born. It has to be traced back to Grandpa Emperor’s generation.” Princess Yulin said.

  “Do you know why I remember this matter?” Emperor De asked Princess Yulin.

  “Why?” Princess Yulin didn’t understand.

  “Because strictly speaking, the dethroned Crown Prince imprisoned here is the biological elder brother of Grandpa Emperor, they were born from the same mother. In other words, he is our Big Grand-Uncle.” Emperor De explained to Princess Yulin.

  “No wonder Grandpa Emperor hid the treasures and secret manuals here. It’s probably to pay respects to this Big Grand-Uncle who was banished to the Cold Palace,” Princess Yulin replied in understanding.

  “Probably…” Emperor De shook his head, not wanting to think about the whereabouts of the dethroned Crown Prince who was imprisoned here.

  Perhaps it was really as Princess Yulin had said.

  After 40 years, there was a possibility that he was already dead.

  “These two cherry trees are quite beautiful, they are in full bloom.”

  Emperor De looked at the two cherry trees outside the courtyard.

  He took a deep breath of the refreshing air.

  “They bloomed while I was living here. It might have been planted by our Big Grand-Uncle,” Princess Yulin said with a smile.

  Emperor De nodded and looked around.

  He didn’t find anything, so he followed Princess Yulin into the courtyard.

  Meanwhile, Lin Jiufeng and the white cat watched them silently from under the cherry trees.

  “They called you Big Grand-Uncle.” The white cat whispered into Lin Jiufeng’s ear.

  “Princess Yulin probably brought Emperor De here to read the books. She wanted to let him know about the Zenith Heaven Path Sect’s scheme,” Lin Jiufeng said.

  He didn’t chase them out.

  It was good for Emperor De to know the origins of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect, so he would be on guard against them.

  This way, Emperor De wouldn’t be so foolish as to be deceived by the Zenith Heaven Path Sect.

  If this happened, then only the end awaited the Yuhua God Dynasty.

  Lin Jiufeng would also have fewer troubles to think of.

  He wouldn’t have to save the Yuhua God Dynasty from being destroyed.

  Just like that, Lin Jiufeng and the white cat stood under the cherry trees.

  They watched as Princess Yulin brought Emperor De along to look through the pile of books that recorded the previous era in great detail.

  From his initial surprise and disbelief to his subsequent silence, Emperor De’s face then turned cold.

  “Brother Emperor, this book specifically recorded the matters of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect. You should take a look at it carefully,” Princess Yulin said softly.

  Emperor De reached out and took it.

  He was speechless for a long time before he slowly opened the first page.

  Everything about the Zenith Heaven Path Sect was recorded in great detail.

  “They deceived me!” Emperor De gritted his teeth.

  Princess Yulin said, “It’s not unreasonable that every court official and even Mother opposed the Zenith Heaven Path Sect. It’s not too late for you to become aware of their true colors.”

  Emperor De didn’t say anything.

  He read the entire book seriously.

  His good impression of the Zenith Heaven Path Sect disappeared.

  “Sister, thank you.” Emperor De thanked Princess Yulin seriously.

  If it wasn’t for Princess Yulin showing him these, he would never believe that Sect Master Luo Yu was so good to him only because he had selfish motives.

  “It’s fine as long as you’ve come back to your senses. Besides, there’s no need to thank me. You should thank Grandpa Emperor. This is definitely the treasure that Grandpa Emperor left for us,” Princess Yulin said with a smile.

  Emperor De looked around but he didn’t respond.

  “Sister, it’s going to be daybreak soon. Let’s go back. Let’s not touch anything here for now.”

  Emperor De looked at the moonlight.

  It was already close to dawn.

  They spent the entire night reading books.

  Lin Jiufeng spent the night under the cherry trees.

  Fortunately, Emperor De and Princess Yulin soon left and closed the doors of the Cold Palace.

  They didn’t bring these books with them.

  Of course, even if they did, Lin Jiufeng wouldn’t mind.

  He had memorized the contents of the books by heart, so it didn’t matter whether the books were still here or not.

  “This time, no one should come here anymore. We can finally continue our cultivation in peace.”

  Lin Jiufeng looked at their departing backs and muttered in satisfaction.

  The white cat rolled her eyes at Lin Jiufeng. “You said the same thing before.”

  “Just watch if you don’t believe me.” Lin Jiufeng was still very confident this time.

  To this pair of siblings, this Cold Palace wasn’t that useful anymore.

  Sure enough, Lin Jiufeng was right.

  For the following month, neither Princess Yulin nor Emperor De came to the Cold Palace.

  The Cold Palace’s peace finally returned.

  Lin Jiufeng could also finally continue his routine of signing in every day.

  One month later, Dachun came to see Lin Jiufeng.

  He brought with him a piece of news that shocked Lin Jiufeng and the white cat.

  80 Years Of Signing-In At The Cold Palace, I Am Unrivalled
