"State Preceptor, are you thinking of sothing impolite?" Heavenly Note Sect put down the State Preceptor's hand and asked seriously.
"No, not at all." The State Preceptor responded with a smile.
"I can tell. You are definitely thinking sothing impolite.
"State Preceptor, you must understand this: in the future, I am destined to surpass you. If you harbor any discourteous thoughts now, once you grow old, I will seal your cultivation in winter and make you appreciate the snow in sumr clothes.
"And then in sumr, I will dress you in winter clothes and take you out to bask in the sunlight." Heavenly Note Sect said earnestly.
State Preceptor: "..."
That's why I say this old lady is annoying.
Using such threats against .
Has she been hit on the head with the back of a knife?
"I still have the Emperor on my side," the State Preceptor boasted proudly.
"One day, I'll surpass the Emperor too. He'll receive the sa treatnt as you," Heavenly Note Sect replied proudly.
"What if you can't surpass him?"
"Then I'll find a husband who can surpass the Emperor, and in the end, you'll both receive the sa treatnt."
"You are too young, you don't understand what realm the Emperor truly is in, or just how powerful his position makes him."
"State Preceptor, it is you who are no longer young."
"..."
Repeat that, who did you say is old?
After sending the person away, the State Preceptor sighed.
The Emperor had entered that place and had still not returned, which made her sowhat concerned.
Repeated attempts to contact him inside had failed to reveal the Emperor's whereabouts.
Moreover, those who entered had discovered many things.
They had co across a boundless sea and found so seals.
Besides that, they felt that there might be sothing under the deep sea, apart from the area around the sea itself.
To know more, perhaps setting out to sea would help.
But that sea does not connect to that bright and splendid space.
It could only be reached by passing through certain special channels.
This made them extrely wary; they needed to plan carefully.
Furthermore, they had discovered that in twisted areas there might be alternate spaces or connections to other places.
The place was too mysterious.
It held trendous potential for exploration.
Perhaps endless secrets could be discovered.
But...
It was also easy to stir up terrifying things.
They had lost quite a few people already.
Currently, the most accessible and most mysterious place they could explore was that mountain.
The Emperor had gone up there and entered deeper within.
He had yet to erge.
Ten years later.
The Emperor returned.
Upon his return, he imdiately found the State Preceptor.
He was seated, silent and solemn, which was quite unusual to see after so many years.
The State Preceptor poured a cup and placed it in front of the Emperor, asking, "What's wrong?"
"I discovered sothing," the Emperor replied, picking up the cup and taking a sip.
"I entered the highest stone tablet, where there's a void space, and I found traces of so figures.
"Besides that, I also felt an inexplicable clarity and Dao intent.
"Those figures stood in different positions, as if anchoring certain periods of ti.
"Even now that the figures have dissipated, with the proper thod... perhaps one could attempt to enter that period of ti.
"This is my most direct feeling.
"I then began to try.
"In fact, I could have left not long after entering, but I spent decades trying, to no avail.
"Yet that feeling beca more and more pronounced.
"Perhaps the timing of my entry was wrong, or maybe I need to borrow a stronger force, or perhaps I need a dium I've never thought of before.
"If successful, one could enter that period of ti.
"To exaggerate a bit, if successful, I perhaps..."
The Emperor looked earnestly towards the State Preceptor: "I might be able to return to the past."
Upon hearing this, the State Preceptor was shocked.
But then the Emperor sighed: "Unfortunately, I cannot know what exactly I am missing; otherwise, I'd certainly have to give it a try.
"The more I try, the more I feel I'm lacking too much.
"It seems destined to be unsuccessful, otherwise so much could be understood."
Hearing this, the State Preceptor who hadn't given it much thought, simply poured herself a cup of tea.
But the mont she reached out to hold the cup, she suddenly recalled the Heavenly chanism Ripples she had noticed before.
They appeared and then vanished, as if nothing had changed.
Yet she was certain that the ripples originated from the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone.
So...
Could the Ancient Yin-Yang Millstone be the dium?
It's possible, entirely possible; that is sothing beyond her understanding.
Then she thought of Tian Liu.
In a flash, she was shaken.
Struck by a ridiculous thought.
Tian Liu...
Cos from the future.
