Chapter 1641: No More Pretending; It’s Ti to Lay the Cards on the Table
Editor: Atlas Studios
A fierce wind howled, sweeping through the Immortal Palace.
In the darkness, amidst the thunder and lightning, Xu Qing’s figure pressed forward within the storm.
Though the heavenly secrets were in disarray, his heart remained steady.
Though the skies changed color, his spirit stood unwavering.
The matter tonight was almost completely clear. The piece transford from the daughter of the Nine Shores was the horn that signaled Xu Qing’s turnaround, yet after this horn sounded, he still needed a spear.
Thus, his figure appeared outside the central area of the Immortal Palace, at the entrance of the cluster of halls surrounding the Aurora Palace. Despite the terrifying divine senses scanning him, his pace did not slow in the slightest. He crossed the plaza directly, and when he finally halted, he stood before the Aurora Palace itself.
The wind and rain here were even heavier. The rain poured down and fluttered in the wind, washing away the void and the listone slabs on the ground.
Water splashed endlessly.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, Xu Qing lowered his head and bowed to the palace.
“Father!”
“I have a few things to do tonight.”
“I want to use the marriage contract!”
Thunder rumbled but it couldn’t shatter Xu Qing’s voice.
After this period of observation and judgnt, he was very confident that his request could be satisfied.
This was because the marriage contract originally belonged to the Young Lord!
Even though he had so hesitation at the start, after experiencing this, he didn’t believe that… as the Immortal Lord, Aurora… wouldn’t know about what was happening within the Immortal Palace and about the outsiders!
Although this period of history was only a mirrored space-ti, those existences in this space-ti had extrely high levels. Hence, Xu Qing didn’t believe that those elders in the immortal palace wouldn’t sense any abnormalities!
However, from the start to the end, they chose to remain silent.
They didn’t interfere!
Regardless of whether it was the order or the changes, they didn’t help or stop it.
To a certain extent, silence ant tacit agreent!
They tacitly allowed all actions to happen!
Hence, after combining his observations and judgnt during this ti, Xu Qing made this trip tonight!
At that mont, his voice entered the palace and landed on the figure sitting cross-legged in the hall.
The figure slowly opened its eyes. Its left eye was pitch-black and its right eye was resplendent as it stared outside.
A while later, the wind and rain stopped, the thunderclap stopped, and everything froze. A golden light slowly rose from under the Aurora Palace and floated in front of Xu Qing.
It was a golden iron plate with the words ‘marriage contract’ engraved on it.
It was the marriage contract between the Young Lord and Fairy Spirit Phoenix.
Accompanying the marriage contract was Aurora Immortal Lord’s calm voice.
“There are so reasons why I can’t help you with the matter you want to deal with.”
“You can handle it yourself.”
“After you’re done, rember to go back early and rest.”
Xu Qing lowered his head and agreed a mont later.
He then took the marriage contract and turned to leave.
The heavy rain was behind and the storm was in front.
The storm tonight beca even heavier as Xu Qing left. When the thunder rumbled for the third ti, Xu Qing’s figure had already appeared outside the academy in the Immortal Palace!
Xu Qing was no stranger to the academy due to the Young Lord’s mories.
In his mory, the entire academy was composed of buildings made from immortal wood, with roofs covered in blue tiles. The surroundings were encircled by immortal trees, creating a serene environnt. Occasionally, there were small bridges and flowing streams, adding to the peaceful atmosphere.
But now, in the dark night and the storm, the view was different.
The trees were swaying violently, the flowing water was nowhere to be seen, and the small bridges were blurred by the rain. The buildings, however, emitted a gentle glow, as if isolated from the world.
Staring at the academy, Xu Qing took a step forward.
He walked into the haziness and the gentle light. All the restrictions here didn’t exist to him.
With the status of the Young Lord, there were only a few areas in the entire Immortal Palace that he was not permitted to enter, but the academy was not one of them.
As Xu Qing moved forward, he soon arrived in front of a closed row house, stopping at Number 37 house.
This row of houses was reserved for students in seclusion and served as a place of reflection for those punished by the teachers.
Thus, it was imbued with the majesty of the Immortal Palace, making it impossible to break through with brute force.
In Number 37, a figure was sitting cross-legged and ditating in the darkness.
The instant Xu Qing appeared, he seed to have sensed sothing and abruptly opened his eyes. He then turned his head and looked outside with a bewildered expression.
“You…”
Almost at the sa ti that his voice rang out, lightning flashed, instantly illuminating the ground and illuminating the two people separated by the door to varying degrees.
Xu Qing was outside the door.
The person inside was heaven’s chosen Li.
“Young Lord!”
Heaven’s chosen Li blinked and revealed a bitter expression.
During this ti, he was incomparably anxious and hated the Fourth True Monarch even more.
The other party’s obstruction caused him to fail in getting close to the Young Lord. According to his original plan, getting close to the Young Lord was only the first step. In the future, he would need to constantly pay attention to the Young Lord’s actions and see the true history.
This was the direction of his Ordinance.
His Ordinance was fog, and this fog was bizarre. It wasn’t fog in the conventional sense but ca from history.
The fog of history was the essence of his Ordinance.
The clearer he saw history, the more he could dispel the fog. As for the fog that was dispelled, it would be absorbed by his Ordinance and beco his law.
Unfortunately, he was restrained in the very first step.
Now, he could only watch helplessly as he was sealed here and wait for this ti period to end.
He could leave early but he was unwilling.
Hence, when he saw the Young Lord’s figure, his bitter voice rang out.
“Young Lord, it’s not that I don’t want to go to the Myriad Beast Garden, but I was sched against and was punished to stay here… I…”
“Heaven’s chosen Li.”
Xu Qing calmly interrupted the other party’s explanation.
He didn’t have ti to listen to the other party’s words. His words were like sharp blades, breaking through heaven’s chosen Li’s ntal barrier.
“Previously, you would rather cause waves in space-ti to get close to , attempting to disrupt your predetermined path of seclusion. That was also the first step of your plan, wasn’t it?
I don’t care who you are or what your motive is.”
“I’m only asking you. Do you want to succeed? Do you want to co out?”
Xu Qing’s calm voice instantly surpassed the rumbling of heavenly lightning in the outside world in heaven’s chosen Li’s ears, exploding in his mind.
His pupils instantly constricted and the bitterness he displayed earlier instantly dissipated completely, transforming into disbelief.
“Who are you!”
Heaven’s chosen Li took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down. He stared at Xu Qing and asked in a low voice.
Xu Qing didn’t answer. Instead, he turned and walked out. At the sa ti, he waved his hand and the door that sealed heaven’s chosen Li’s escape route silently opened.
The wind and rain surged in, accompanied by Xu Qing’s voice.
“No matter what your goal is in the fourth realm, I can make you succeed or fail.”
“Now, I want you to do sothing.”
“Go and assassinate the Fourth True Monarch and get him to personally break one of your arms.”
Xu Qing left.
Thunder rumbled. In House 37, heaven’s chosen Li fell silent.
After a while, he slowly lifted his head. The waves in his heart were still intense. The Young Lord was actually an outsider. This answer shocked him and at the sa ti, he felt a strong sense of powerlessness.
The underlying threat in the other party’s words, if spoken by soone else, would be just a threat, with no guarantee of being carried out.
However, if it ca from the Young Lord…
“I can only believe it…”
Heaven’s chosen Li took a deep breath. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he stepped out of the open door!
…
Space-ti fluctuated!
In history, he was soone who should have entered closed-door cultivation until the calamity descended and died in his closed-door cultivation.
Now, he beca the Young Lord’s helper.
He also beca the caretaker of the Myriad Beast Garden.
He was no longer in seclusion, and would attempt to assassinate the Fourth True Monarch.
His arm would even be cut off by the Fourth True Monarch.
Such waves would completely change the trajectory of this character’s history.
“This is the first layer of waves tonight!”
“Next is Li ngtu.”
In the dark night, in the wind and rain, Xu Qing’s figure moved forward and left the academy. When he reappeared… he was already outside Zhong Chi’s residence.
At the sa ti, outside the Thunder Punishnt Palace, in the courtyard of the fox beauty.
The fox beauty’s entire body trembled and Her eyes were bloodshot. The suppression from the God Searing Token allowed Her to sense the terrifying power emitted by it.
This token was an item specially used in the Fifth Star Ring to suppress gods. It contained incomparably astonishing power.
Even though She was infinitely close to the Divine Platform, Her soul still trembled under this God Searing Token.
She could even sense that this power of the God Searing seed to really be able to affect Her main body.
In front of Her, the Fourth True Monarch had a calm expression as he sat cross-legged.
He coldly looked at the struggling fox beauty and calmly spoke.
“We’re almost halfway through the night. I’m very curious. Is there really soone behind you that I guessed… Hmm?”
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly flashed as he turned his head and looked in the direction of the academy.
The chaotic commotion there attracted his attention. However, his gaze only landed there for a mont before he retracted it and looked at… the gate of the courtyard.
Thunder rumbled in the sky as the carriage of the daughter of the Nine Shores arrived amidst the wind and lightning.
Fairy Spirit Phoenix stepped out with a grim expression. As soon as she revealed herself, before the Fourth True Monarch could speak, she had already seized the initiative and spoke first.
“True Monarch, why are you treating my senior sister like this!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the black-armored guards behind her had already stepped into the courtyard, enveloping the surroundings.
A strange glint appeared in the Fourth True Monarch’s eyes, and an unexpected emotion arose in his heart.
“I’m very surprised that it’s you.”
The Spirit Phoenix’s eyes were filled with killing intent as she spoke resolutely.
“Fox beauty is my master’s disciple and also my senior sister. Since she encountered this matter, I naturally have to co!”
“When was this identity decided?” The Fourth True Monarch slowly spoke.
He had used Xie Lingzi’s betrayal to shatter the fox beauty’s identity. However, now, she was given a new identity by Spirit Phoenix.
“It was decided long ago. If you don’t believe , you can ask my father. Anyway, if I say it is true, then it is true.”
Spirit Phoenix took a step forward and arrived in front of the fox beauty. With a wave of her hand, she helped move the power of the God Searing Token away a little.
The fox beauty heaved a sigh of relief and chuckled.
“I almost thought the Lord wasn’t going to save .”
Spirit Phoenix stood proudly, ignoring her.
Looking at everything, the Fourth True Monarch fell silent. In the end, he smiled and looked at Spirit Phoenix aningfully.
“I really didn’t expect that you would save Her!”
“However, your appearance finally allowed to see through the enigma of this matter clearly.”
“Either you’re the mastermind I’m waiting for, or if you’re not, then I can roughly guess who the true mastermind is.”
“Unexpected, truly unexpected…”
“An identity that can’t be obtained was actually obtained…”
The Fourth True Monarch slowly stood up and muttered hoarsely with a dazed gaze.
