With Zhou Dongfei accompanying them, the return journey naturally held no danger.
In just three days, everyone returned to the Profound Moon Sword Sect.
The deserters heading south had beco an established fact. However, launching a war couldn’t be completed in just a few days; it required preparation ti. This was an opportunity for the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect to recover and strengthen their power.
Zhou Dongfei and Luo Bingyun, upon returning, imdiately needed to discuss with the elders in the sect about the issues concerning the deserters and the Four Symbols Sect.
However, these matters temporarily had little to do with Wang Junze.
In the final battle, Wang Junze burned his Divine Soul, causing considerable damage to it. Fortunately, the Profound Moon Sword Sect does not lack healing Spirit Pills. Yet, to fully recover, it would still take so ti.
"The Four Symbols Origin Stone not only contains the power of the origin, but also has a good effect on refining the Divine Soul. You might as well try refining one, it should help you quickly recover the power of the Divine Soul."
Handing the Four Symbols Origin Stone to Wang Junze, Luo Qingxuan gently reminded him.
This ti, Wang Junze contributed greatly to defeating the Four Symbols Sect, so he was allocated two shares, totaling six Four Symbols Origin Stones.
Moreover, although the Four Symbols Origin Stone is precious, it is not like the Moon Fruit which is related to realm-breaking. For Wang Junze, it can be imdiately used for cultivation.
"Thank you for the reminder."
Nodding slightly, Wang Junze softly thanked her, but then rembered sothing and glanced at the Four Symbols Origin Stone in his hand, speaking again: "Senior Sister Luo, can you exchange so of the Four Symbols Origin Stone for the White Tiger Dharma Aspect for ?"
"Sure!"
Nodding her head, Luo Qingxuan casually replied: "The greatest use of the Four Symbols Origin Stone is still in cultivating Dharma Aspects. Since we can’t cultivate those, the type of origin stone isn’t a big difference for us."
Exchanging six White Tiger Dharma Aspect origin stones for Wang Junze, Luo Qingxuan reminded him once more: "I know you want to take this opportunity to comprehend so Water Origin, but don’t rush. Cultivation needs to be done gradually."
"Okay!"
Nodding his head, Wang Junze agreed imdiately.
After bidding farewell to Luo Qingxuan, Wang Junze soon returned to his Cave Mansion. All other trivial matters were managed by Miao Yu and the others, so Wang Junze didn’t need to be distracted. After a brief rest, he directly took out a Four Symbols Origin Stone and began attempting to refine it.
The refining of the Four Symbols Origin Stone is actually quite simple. You only need to hold the origin stone in your hand and circulate your True Qi to naturally absorb its power into your body.
Within a short mont, Wang Junze could clearly feel a surge of Water Spiritual Power flowing into his body through his ridians, converging into his Divine Soul.
Just as Luo Qingxuan said, the Four Symbols Origin Stone has a substantial effect on healing injuries to the Divine Soul. After just a short period, Wang Junze felt much more comfortable in his Divine Soul, akin to a person utterly exhausted soaking in a hot spring, washing away the fatigue with the flow of water.
However, attempting to comprehend the Water Origin from it seed extrely difficult. Fortunately, Wang Junze didn’t have too high of expectations, so he wasn’t disappointed.
...
"Elder Liu, there’s a response from the Capital City."
In the City Lord’s Mansion, a disciple of the Four Symbols Sect quickly approached Liu Wangchuan, presenting a Divine Talisman with both hands, reporting in a heavy tone.
Using the Divine Talisman for communication ensures speed yet cos at great luxury. Even people from the Four Symbols Sect don’t usually indulge in such extravagance, indicating that this Divine Talisman ca from Prince Yu.
Receiving the Divine Talisman, Liu Wangchuan waited until the ssenger had left before crushing the talisman.
In the next mont, a phantom erged from the Divine Talisman.
Even though it was a communication via the Divine Talisman, the appearance of the other party was still clearly visible—a youth clad in a luxurious bright yellow garnt, ordinary-looking, yet exuded an air of nobility, surveying everything with superiority.
"Regarding the matter in the Northern Domain, I am inford. Do not fear, proceed boldly, even if it destroys the entire Northern Domain, you must extend your hand into it. Should the Profound Moon Sword Sect dare to tear our relations, I will have your back!"
"Also, there’s no need to investigate that Wang Junze... just kill him directly!"
With these two simple sentences, the power of the Divine Talisman dissipated, as if nothing ever happened.
Although it was just two simple sentences, the aning within was vastly different.
Firstly, with Prince Yu backing them up, the Four Symbols Sect need not fear facing the Profound Moon Sword Sect directly. No matter how strong Zhou Dongfei was, a single person couldn’t contend against the will of the Court. Given Prince Yu’s boldness in saying such words, he surely has asures to deal with Zhou Dongfei.
For the Four Symbols Sect, this was undoubtedly advantageous.
Furthermore, Prince Yu implied a determination to intervene in the Northern Domain, even if it leads to its downfall, to prevent the Profound Moon Sword Sect from holding absolute power. This likely represented more than Prince Yu’s personal view but was rather endorsed by the Court, which presents an opportunity for the Four Symbols Sect to hitch a ride with Prince Yu’s ambitions.
As for Wang Junze, his matter was considered trivial in comparison.
After all, the possibility of Wang Junze being closely related to Princess Changlin was intentionally communicated to Prince Yu by Yuan Shouyi. Initially, one might have thought that Prince Yu would investigate further, but unexpectedly, he couldn’t be bothered and directly ordered Wang Junze’s execution—this alone revealed Prince Yu’s stance on the matter.
It seed that Su Yuwei becoming the Princess Consort Yu was a foregone conclusion, requiring any rumors or scandals to be imdiately quashed.
Obviously, in the eyes of Prince Yu, Wang Junze was rely an insignificant figure, hardly worth any extra thought.
Moreover... this also hinted at a firm resolve by the Court to take action against the Profound Moon Sword Sect.
Even being Zhou Dongfei’s personal disciple couldn’t save Wang Junze’s life in this context.
