Be patient and listen carefully to my words,” he began.
“Years ago, when I was still learning under the discipleship of Master Wuweizi, I was fortunate enough to have t his teacher, the true person Cihai Zhenren.
At that ti, his cultivation had reached the Great Achievent Realm.
He was about to ascend to immortality.
He graciously descended to give a mirror to my master.
However, he didn’t explain its significance, and then he left.”
“Later on, he ascended to immortality and the very island where he had practiced his cultivation astonishingly vanished.
This paradisiac island gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and moon; it was the ideal treasure land for cultivating immortality.
My master’s fellow disciples, on seeing this wonder, feared that the island and the mirror were connected.
This led him to our observatory, where he fought with my master in a bid to force him to surrender the mirror given by my teacher.”
“My master refused to hand it over and fought back, but he was unexpectedly ambushed by them.
He t a tragic death, and most of my elder so-called brothers in our ‘observatory’ also died at his hands.
Only my elder brother and I were lucky enough to escape.
My elder brother took the mirror left by our teacher during his escape.
That man, after destroying my master’s legacy, vanished without a trace.”
“Unwilling to let my master’s lineage extinguished, and always aspiring to avenge my master, I made up my mind to serve in the officialdom.
With a little bit of my cultivation, I beca the Royal Adviser of the Great Jin Nation.
I was serving the nation on one hand, and secretly looking for this man’s whereabouts on the other.”
“Surprisingly, he ca looking for and fought with .
By this ti, his cultivation was quite advanced.
I was no match for him and was defeated.
Fortunately, I was rescued and managed to escape his pursuit.
I escaped to the remote Qingyun Town and dwelt there in disguise as the shopkeeper of Li’s Record and Cloth Store.
anwhile, he took my place as the Royal Adviser of the Great Jin Nation.”
“Over the years, this man was restless, ceaselessly searching for the mirror left by our teacher.
If he found out that you have had interactions with several Divine Beasts on the island, do you think he would let you go?”
“The re-ergences of the Great Immortal White Tiger and the Great Immortal Divine Monkey have already reached the capital.
It’s possible that the man, with his profound cultivation and cunning mind, is already on his way here.
He’s been looking for the mirror for decades.
Even becoming the Royal Adviser of the Great Jin Nation was just a ans to finding the mirror.
Girl, do you think he would let you off easily once he arrives here?”
His words left Cai Wei feeling as if she had been doused with a pail of icy water, encased in an icy cavern.
The idiom goes, “Disaster strikes from the heavens when you’re comfortably at ho.”
She glared at the man beside her, who seed utterly at ease, and in a fit of rage retorted, “It’s all your fault!
Why did you provoke this person in the first place?
Look what you’ve got us into!”
Nangong Yi, looking amused at her indignation, replied, “Wei’er, you misunderstand.
When did I ever offend him?”
Cai Wei snapped angrily, “If you hadn’t offended him, why would he chase you all the way here?
Maybe you seduced his daughter or violated his concubine!”
Nangong Yi grimaced and explained, “Wei’er, he is a practised cultivator.
He has no daughters or concubines.
Even if he had a daughter, given his age of nearly a hundred, his daughter would be at least seventy or eighty.
My, Nangong Yi’s, tastes aren’t that broad.
And as for his concubines, I, Nangong Yi, wouldn’t lower myself to steal them.
They’re beneath !”
Unconvinced, Cai Wei snorted, “Stop pretending.
If you hadn’t offended him, why would he send so many people to kill you?”
“Because…,”
Nangong Yi paused, taking a mont to consider.
He decided that, since he had resolved to marry her, he should be honest with her, without any concealnt.
Thus, he looked at her seriously and explained, “Because I am the only legitimate son of the Emperor.
Jin Guifei and her son, the crown prince, view as a threat.
The crown prince and that man are in the sa faction.
They believe that my existence is a thorn in their side and they desperately wish to eliminate !”
