On this day, as the sky barely brightened and all the hustle and bustle quieted down, Chen Yuan carried the Phoenix Coffin and once again stepped into the Ancestor Mountain!
With this coffin hiding his aura, the burial mountain did not erupt this ti, remaining quietly serene.
However, having experienced the might of this mountain, he did not delve deeply.
Now, through the clues he observed and heard, he slowly pieced together a puzzle and made so conjectures, but he had no desire to risk exploring the connection between this mountain and the Demon Forbidden Land, or what secrets lay within.
He only needed to leverage the situation to achieve his goals!
In the burial ground of this mountain, he cast spells and engraved four illustrations from the Divine Coffin of General Mountain!
The first illustration depicted a group of people leaving a place similar to the Cloud Palace, with three large characters inscribed on top of the palace.
The second illustration showed this group engaging in a fierce battle with demons, shaking heaven and earth and astonishing gods and ghosts, clearly involving the Ten Evils.
The third illustration depicted one among them falling in battle, with his companions going to a certain Divine Mountain to kill a phoenix, using a piece of Parasol Divine Wood to craft a coffin, burying the fallen inside.
The fourth illustration was of a snowy day when the deceased in the coffin suddenly opened his eyes!
Curiously, these four illustrations seed to blend seamlessly with this burial mountain, filled with an ancient and mysterious aura, not brought by Chen Yuan himself.
It seed as though the story took place right here!
And the three mysterious seal scripts on the Cloud Palace were precisely what the Dragon Breeding Clan referred to as Baiyu Capital!
A place that only existed in legends, drawing countless Martial Arts Great Divine Power users who flocked to this abode of heavenly people!
Chen Yuan took rubbings of the four illustrations, deliberately hiding them among several tombstone markers, and then left the Ancestor Mountain without lingering for another second.
This move needed to be revealed at a specific ti to be interesting! Now is not the ti!
Chen Yuan went out and ca back, while the soldier armor guarding outside the carriage remained oblivious.
"Lu Ming!"
"At your command, sir!" Lu Ming, always holding his sword and ready beside the carriage, promptly responded.
"From today onwards, you are in charge of sealing off this mountain, allowing no one near. If anyone trespasses, kill without rcy."
"I will set up a Transmission Array here, directly connecting to the Overseers!"
He didn’t want his arrangents to be prematurely exposed by so reckless trespassers, though the chances were slim, no one in this world could guarantee that there wouldn’t be any unexpected incidents.
Fortunately, the influence of this mountain was still within a controllable range, although it was rumored that beyond this Ancestor Mountain lay a Divine Mountain, no one truly set foot on it or found any treasures, only infamous tales were spread.
"Understood!" Without hesitation, Lu Ming accepted the order,
"However, General, what if any Beiliang people co out alive?"
"Co out?" Chen Yuan’s gaze carried a hint of amusent, "If they are truly fortunate, they most likely wouldn’t appear in this place."
"However, if by any chance they do, make every effort to detain them and report to the Overseers; no one is allowed to leave!" Chen Yuan’s eyes flashed with a cold glint, offering no explanations for his reasoning.
"Understood, sir!"
anwhile, inside the carriage, Chen Yuan acknowledged gently, then ordered the accompanying colonel outside the carriage,
"Return to the city!"
With his words, the excited neighs of horses quickly resounded from outside.
Then,
"Giddy-up!"
"Giddy-up"
"Giddy-up"
The sound of hooves clattered as eight fine horses pulled the bronze chariot, thundering down a stretch, rolling over the soft snowy ground, and then soaring into the sky!
Not long after, Chen Yuan returned to the mountain!
Upon his return, he directly entered the courtyard halfway up the Ninth Mountain.
His cold, hard face beca lively and animated upon entering the courtyard, especially after pushing open a door and hearing inside the soft cooing sounds like a little lamb, Chen Yuan’s icy expression lted into a gentle smile.
"An’an!"
The door creaked shut, sealing the bloody storms and treachery outside.
......
In the cradle, the little one slept soundly, pink and tender, like a porcelain doll.
A red string was tied around the little one’s neck, with a fingernail-sized Golden Scale attached to it!
It was a Dragon Scale gifted to An’an by the Northern Sea Dragon Girl!
"I need to make a trip to the Divine Capital recently!"
"Soone from the Court has co!"
Chen Yuan embraced An Ge from behind after she had lulled their daughter to sleep, her plump body warm like soft jade, and the faint fragrance on her body gave him a strange sense of peace.
Upon hearing this, the woman in his arms stiffened slightly, then turned around, her crystal blue eyes like lake water flashing a touch of panic,
"General, can’t you avoid going?"
She didn’t ask how the Court’s people had reacted, but given the current situation, the Court would hardly settle matters easily.
Chen Yuan caressed her face, which had thinned significantly after childbirth, giving a reassuring look,
"I know you’re worried, An’an is still young, how could I take risks? Everything’s arranged, you don’t have to worry."
"But for you, settling for without having promised you anything or living any peaceful days, involving you, I burdened you and our daughter. Your identities can’t be known by too many people temporarily, I am sorry for the hardship!"
"I understand the General’s intentions!" An Ge said no more, unwittingly deeply devoted to Chen Yuan, she leaned against that broad chest.
Chen Yuan’s chin rested on her hair, inhaling the fragrance among her strands, and tightened his arms around her.
After a mont of warmth, soone soon ca to report outside,
"General, Military Adviser Gao heard you returned and said he has matters to discuss outside the courtyard!"
"Understood." Chen Yuan replied calmly toward the door, then apologetically to An Ge,
"The Overseers are now full of vigor, with all things competing to grow, there’s no need for to worry about much. Now, the matter likely pertains to those few individuals the Court has sent."
