Chapter 1403: Chapter 1407: Impersonation
Empress Li left shortly after.
Before she departed, she examined the Flare Print on the Sword Spirit Dragon Sword’s body.
Upon confirming the print was still intact, it was hard to tell whether she felt reassured or disappointed…
It seed this matter had lingered deep within her heart for a long ti, becoming a Heart Demon she could never exorcise.
Zhu Minglang watched her leave, pondering what thod he could use to obtain a single drop of Empress Li’s Fresh Blood.
As long as this Flare remained unpurged, he could not roam freely across the realms.
Alas, for now, he needed to work through the other Dragon Babies.
From the conversations between the God of Lesser Month and Dragon Lord, Zhu Minglang had already learned that there was news of Big Black Tooth in Tianheng Valley.
The fragnted information from his Divine Sense wasn’t complete; he would have to go there personally to investigate.
Fortunately, the Ten Thousand Dread-Earthbound Dragon had returned, giving Zhu Minglang sufficient confidence.
Moreover, Little Jiuwei, Little Chong Dragon, and Little Glutton were all thriving; it wouldn’t be long before they ascended to the Moon Radiance Stage. By then, with the Sword Spirit Dragon as their protector, even the embodints of Heavenly tribulations would be terrified out of their wits.
…
Arriving at Tianheng Valley, the place was deserted, with no sign of life. Zhu Minglang noticed that the spatial passage within Tianheng Valley had beco highly unstable, with powerful chaotic currents erupting intermittently.
It appeared Tianheng Valley would vanish soon.
He needed to hurry and return quickly; otherwise, crossing Sky Field could take untold ti. Rumor held that the Sky Fields were separated by vast expanses of dark heavenly voids and ethereal seas of nothingness—encountering a temporal flux could an years, even decades, could pass in an instant.
“Little friend, where are you off to?” A woman garbed in flowing jade robes smiled radiantly, greeting Zhu Minglang.
“Hasn’t Divine Weapon Pavilion already withdrawn? Why is sister still here?” Zhu Minglang asked.
He recognized this woman—it was the sa one from Divine Weapon Pavilion who had inford him about the Flare Print.
“The Pavilion Master instructed to await esteed guests from Jun Tian here; I dare not neglect my duty,” the jade-robed woman replied.
“I’ve heard Tianheng Valley is about to vanish, so I wanted to seize this final chance to visit the Wilderness of Zhu Tian—a pity I’m unfamiliar with the terrain,” Zhu Minglang responded.
“Since you’ve called sister, how could I neglect you? Why not wait here for a while? After I et the guests, I can accompany you to Zhu Tian and to Divine Weapon Pavilion?” the jade-robed woman proposed.
“I’ve long admired Divine Weapon Pavilion, so I’ll humbly accept your offer.” Zhu Minglang replied with a smile.
“I recall your na is Zhu Lang, so I’ll call you Junior Brother Zhu. You, in turn, can call Sister Zhu.” The jade-robed woman said.
“Your surna is Zhu?” Zhu Minglang asked in surprise.
“Indeed, I’m Zhu Minglang’s daughter, Zhu Ruxu.” The jade-robed woman grinned and winked mischievously.
Zhu Minglang’s jaw dropped wide, like the gaping maw of a Gluttonous Monster—he felt as though a Giant Dragon passing by might accidentally get swallowed whole!
What was going on!!
He had a daughter??
What had the imposter who stole his na actually done!!
In fact, Zhu Minglang’s encounter with this Divine Weapon Pavilion woman wasn’t purely coincidental. During a mont of Divine Sense, Zhu Minglang had heard her voice, and the esteed guests she was waiting to greet turned out to be the ones Dragon Lord had ntioned—those who knew about the Black Dragon.
Thus, by following them, he could likely uncover clues about his Big Black Tooth.
However, what Zhu Minglang couldn’t have foreseen was that the woman selling him weapons was now claiming to be his “daughter…”
This impostor Zhu Minglang must be found and confronted.
Heaven only knew what despicable deeds had been done under his stolen na!
“Surprised, aren’t you? You’d never expect such a casual acquaintance to have such an extraordinary background,” Zhu Ruxu teased with a smile.
“Indeed, I didn’t expect it. It’s astonishing. eting Sister Zhu is a blessing of three lifetis!” Zhu Minglang replied.
“If Weaver Girl is too much to bear, you can co join instead. I’m not inferior to your master,” Zhu Ruxu continued.
“Let’s see, let’s see,” Zhu Minglang stamred awkwardly.
A calamity, truly!
Could it be that he had awakened soti in this century, ford emotional entanglents, and then returned to Reincarnation Transformation, leaving all his experiences behind? And now he was paying the price for everything he’d forgotten?
No, surely not! Zhu Minglang’s life had already been full of dizzying highs and lows—why heap such soap opera-esque misfortune upon him?
Stay calm, stay calm!
First, get the facts straight, uncover the truth.
A sudden, fully-grown daughter out of nowhere? This was far too abnormal!
…
It wasn’t long before the so-called Jun Tian guests arrived.
Zhu Minglang was deeply surprised—they included soone he was familiar with.
Kang Constellation Star Official Nie Ti!
Similarly, Nie Ti’s expression shifted to one of shock upon seeing Zhu Minglang. Pointing a finger, he demanded, “Why are you here?”
“This is my Junior Brother Zhu, who has remarkable expertise in swords. He’s also a treasured guest of Divine Weapon Pavilion. Since you’re acquainted, that’s perfect. You can journey together,” Zhu Ruxu said.
Nie Ti, uncharacteristically subdued, fell silent, clearly contemplating why Zhu Minglang would appear here.
Beside him stood Jiaoxiu Shine Monarch—the most esteed divine figure of Jiaoxiu and Bright Moon God’s superior!
Jiaoxiu Shine Monarch maintained a calm deanor, offering only a cordial smile as he remarked, “Then let us travel together.”
“The temporal currents in Tianheng Valley are calm right now; we should leave promptly. If we delay your return, things could beco complicated,” Zhu Ruxu urged.
…
Suspicion continued to gnaw at Zhu Minglang’s heart. Based on the current situation, it seed Jiaoxiu Shine Monarch definitely harbored grievances against him. Though the monarch kept his hat brim low, Zhu Minglang couldn’t recall if they’d crossed paths back in Dragon Gate.
More interaction was needed.
If they dared set their sights on the Sword Spirit Dragon, they were surely no ordinary figures. Crucially, they also possessed knowledge of Big Black Tooth’s whereabouts…
Following Zhu Ruxu through Tianheng Valley, Zhu Minglang, still a newcor to Nine Heavens Wilderness, peppered her with curious questions along the way.
Zhu Ruxu answered each one, clearly chard by his handso features. Every divine sister seed to regard him as an innocuous, adorable younger brother, heaven-sent.
“Each bridge passage connecting Sky Fields has its own na. For the passage between Jun Tian and Zhu Tian, it’s called Tianheng Valley; the one connecting Hao Tian and Zhu Tian is known as Dragon Tail Mountain. Within each Sky Field bridge, there resides a mysterious deity. Their followers are largely reclusive, yet they maintain the order of inter-Sky Field connections,” Zhu Ruxu explained.
