Chapter 407: Zhao Sheng Becos a Disciple
That night, the Eight Diagrams Bright Tower at the heart of Xinglong City soared into the heavens like a colossal pillar of light, incessantly emitting dazzling rainbow hues, illuminating the vast Xinglong City and adding an endless luster to the grand ceremony.
At this mont, the atmosphere in the Linwei Pavilion on the ninth floor of the Bright Tower was exceptionally warm and cheerful. The Zhao Family Foundation Establishnt Elders, unable to contain their joy, all looked with admiration toward Ancestor Zhao Xuanjing, who sat at the highest seat.
Zhao Sheng, seated below the ancestor, was also very happy as he looked toward Zhao Xuanjing, feeling both sentintal and relieved.
Ti passed like water, flowing ceaselessly over eight hundred years.
He had probably never imagined that the clumsy yet astute boy from those years would reach such heights today.
On the highest Jade Chair, Zhao Xuanjing’s gaze swept toward Zhao Sheng below him, and he suddenly couldn’t help but twitch his eyebrows.
...
For so reason, he always felt that there was sothing odd about the way Qingyang looked at him, as if there was sothing indefinably wrong.
Zhao Xuanjing cleared his mind of distractions, turning his gaze toward the younger generations in the clan and said indifferently, “Alright, I am rather tired. The preaching conference will be held on the ninth day of the ninth month next month. You all may leave now!”
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly stood up, bowed, and chorused, “Ancestor, Gong’an, we will take our leave first!”
Zhao Sheng also stood up, about to bow his respects, when he saw Zhao Xuanjing wave his hand and instruct, “Qingyang, you stay behind for now.”
“Yes, Ancestor!” Zhao Sheng responded and stood straight, while the other Zhao Family elders left the Linwei Pavilion with light steps.
Looking at Zhao Sheng, whose deanor beca increasingly extraordinary and whose appearance grew more handso, Zhao Xuanjing nodded with satisfaction and sentint, about to ask about the family’s changes in recent years.
However, at that mont, Zhao Xuanjing’s gaze sharpened, noticing that the initially respectful and solemn Zhao Qingyang’s expression suddenly changed.
One half of his face suddenly beca lively and animated, and his eyes filled with an unprecedented excitent.
In contrast, the other half of the face maintained a respectful and solemn expression, with calm and indifferent eyes, undisturbed as an ancient well.
At first glance, it seed like one face, yet one half was like a fla and the other like a glacier, as if split into two personalities.
“Qingyang, you… um!” Zhao Xuanjing’s face changed slightly, just as he began to call out, he abruptly paused.
“Ancestor, what’s the matter?” Zhao Sheng asked, surprised.
At that mont, he was unaware of his own strange condition.
The next second, Zhao Sheng blinked and his facial muscles twitched, his face returning to its respectful and solemn appearance.
“Um, it’s nothing!” Zhao Xuanjing relaxed and waved his hand dismissively.
Following that, he began inquiring about so of the family’s recent changes over the years.
“Ancestor, in the recent decades, the family developnt has been generally smooth. The clan… in the Shattered Star Sea…”
On the Jade Chair, Zhao Xuanjing, with one hand on the bureau and leaning back in his chair, quietly listened to Zhao Qingyang’s narration.
Throughout the process, his expression was calm, but his mind was flooded with a series of horrifying images, and his heart was tumultuously moved.
…
“It’s not good. We must flee, it’s a Nascent Soul… not a demon king above the Seventh Rank…”
…
“Thousand… Lady Qian Huan!”
…
“…I never thought a whim could lead to catch two sweethearts. Not bad, not bad! This person’s vital energy is robust, Divine Intent proud, indeed worth several more bites.”
…
“Now that we have fallen into your hands, Lady, whether you choose to kill or slash, we will comply with your wishes!”
…
“Aren’t you afraid of becoming a toy under my control, watching with your own eyes as you kill your wife, children, parents, all your relatives and friends, and finally harm yourself, turning into a monstrous demon? Aren’t you afraid of such an end?”
…
“Go on! Little one, go enjoy the pleasure of slaughter! But don’t forget your greatest enemy is the Beast Taming Sect, the Hundred Gu Demon, the entire Gu God Lineage. Go on, rember to seek revenge at all costs in the future! Teehee.”
…
“Ancestor, I am Zhao Qingyang, when you see these mory fragnts. Please believe that all of this is real. The Thousand Illusion Demon King has tampered with my consciousness, twisting my thoughts and perceptions. The Zhao Qingyang before you is yet not . Please help break free from the Thousand Illusion Demon King’s Heart Illusion Technique as soon as possible.”
…
“Just now, in order to convey this ssage, I used up most of my remaining spiritual power, and I am about to fall into a deep sleep. Anxiously hoping for an early liberation! Zhao Qingyang’s final ssage.”
Zhao Xuanjing repeatedly reviewed the scenes in his mind, carefully identifying the stunningly beautiful demon king in the images, and finally confird that his descendant was indeed victim to the opponent’s sches.
For Lady Qian Huan, this extrely troubleso great power, Zhao Xuanjing also felt a severe headache.
Lady Qian Huan’s illusion technique was unparalleled in the current world, especially the Heart Illusion Divine Ability she mastered after transforming, which was considered unsolvable.
Zhao Xuanjing thought it over and within the Central Continent, the only person capable of breaking the Heart Illusion Technique and ensuring the subject’s Divine Soul remained undamaged was a singular individual.
“…to date has stockpiled a reserve of over five million Spirit Stones, a total of two hundred thirty-six types of Third-Order Spirit Pills, totaling… ten mounds of stored spirit grain, over one hundred thousand Spirit Talismans, over two hundred Magic Artifacts…”
An hour later, Zhao Sheng finally concluded, “…six Magical Treasures for suppressing Qi Fortune are respectively the Purple Light Furnace, Mystic Treasure Vessel, Mountain Dragon Shield, Eight Diagrams Bright Plate, Six Elents Bag, and Starfall Seven Spirit Sword.”
Zhao Xuanjing nodded in response and did not pursue further, instead switching to discussing Zhao Sheng’s family matters.
