"Indeed, the written word is the greatest invention of the Human Race. It can carry the weight of history and express such intricate emotions, a testant to the heritage accumulated over countless generations."
"One false step leads to many more; with such a gap, even if we’re given another thousand years, we might not catch up."
A vague phantom floated beside the woman and spoke, "Tsk tsk, who would’ve thought this kid is such a romantic... but there are quite a few ladies around him. Just along this journey, he’s encountered three or four. How can a person be both unfaithful and deeply in love at the sa ti? Isn’t that contradictory?"
"It’s quite normal. The attraction to strength is a female instinct. To bear superior offspring, the Pure-blood Dragon Clan can have dozens of partners at the sa ti," Zhu Wujiang said casually, "It’s the sa with the Human Race. With Chen Mo’s abilities and talents, it’s naturally easy for him to attract the opposite sex."
"Including you, master?" the Vermilion Bird asked boldly.
Zhu Wujiang snorted and said, "As beings cursed by heaven and earth, living day by day without assurance, where do I find the right to speak of love? As long as the bloodline continues, I’m already satisfied."
"Is that so?"
The Vermilion Bird appeared sowhat hesitant.
She always felt that her master’s attitude toward Chen Mo wasn’t that simple.
Besides admiration, there seed to be a curiosity, which was not a good on...
"But isn’t it too risky for us to enter the city so openly?" the Vermilion Bird asked.
Zhu Wujiang shook his head, "So far, my Spiritual Sense hasn’t issued any warnings. With this matter concluded, Chu Yanli should have already left Bailu City, and Yu Youhan is likely gone too."
"Then should we just make a move and capture him?"
"No rush, with Yu Youhan’s character, it’s highly probable she left so backup. The ti isn’t ripe yet, continue to observe in the shadows."
"Yes."
At this mont, the two noticed sothing.
They looked up at the swaying Magic Boat with slightly stiff expressions.
"Are these two actually...?"
"Hmm? They can even do that?"
The Vermilion Bird was slightly surprised, then rubbed her chin, intrigued, "It seems my understanding of the human body is still far from enough..."
"..."
Zhu Wujiang’s eyelids twitched, saying, "There’s no need to watch at tis like this. We’re here to conduct business, not eavesdrop like thieves. Just make sure he doesn’t leave our sight."
"Yes."
Reluctantly, the Vermilion Bird withdrew her Divine Sense.
Zhu Wujiang disdained such sordid acts of prying into privacy, hands clasped behind his back, followed the Magic Boat at a leisurely pace.
"Other than Yu Youhan, who would’ve thought even the Great Yuan Empress would have an affair with him? The female Sect Leader of Tianshu Pavilion seems to have a close relationship with him too..."
"Before fully growing, finding a reliable backing is a wise move, but the thighs this guy is hugging are too thick, aren’t they? Any one of them could shake Jiu Zhou with a re stomping of their foot!"
"It seems a bit difficult then."
"To forcefully take him would bring disaster upon the Demon Clan. He must be willing to follow to the Desolate Domain..."
...
...
State Mansion.
The night recedes, and the dawn breaks.
A luxurious flying chariot engraved with dragon patterns rests in the Governnt Square.
Before the flying chariot, Xuan Armor Guard stood in neat rows, their black armor like dark clouds, emitting an overwhelming pressure.
Not far away, a group of officials stood with heads lowered, their numbers significantly reduced compared to before.
Their faces were pale and expressions heavy, evidently still shaken from the recent BetrayalFeast.
Zhong Lihe stood on the street, looking around with a frown, "Where exactly did Your Highness go? It’s been so long and still hasn’t returned; could sothing have gone wrong... Should I go out and look for her?"
Sun Senior Palace Lady, fully aware, shook her head, "Don’t worry, just wait here. When Your Highness finishes what she’s doing, she’ll naturally return."
Whoosh—
Just as the words were spoken, a sound of sothing breaking through the air ca from afar.
A Magic Boat sped in and landed smoothly on the ground.
The boarding ladder fell, and Chen Mo and a "female officer" descended one after the other.
Sun Senior Palace Lady quickly stepped forward to the Empress’s side and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, can we set off now?"
The Empress reluctantly glanced at Chen Mo and nodded, "Let’s go."
She had just been through quite a commotion, her body still slightly limp. With Sun Senior Palace Lady’s help, she boarded the Dragon Pattern Flying Boat.
Zhong Lihe shouted loudly, "Set off!"
"Yes!"
The Xuan Armor Guard responded loudly, the formation closed in, and the palace attendants began organizing the ceremonial guard.
Before leaving, Chu Yanli did not inform others, including the Xuan Armor Guard, who all believed the Princess was aboard.
Zhong Lihe took this opportunity to approach Chen Mo, took a bamboo scroll out of his arms, and handed it to him, saying, "This was sothing I ca across by chance when destroying the Gu God Sect’s base earlier; I present it to Mr. Chen."
"This is..."
Chen Mo reached out and took it.
Seeing the prompt ssage flash before his eyes, he was montarily stunned.
[Obtained Heavenly Rank Top Grade Cultivation Technique: "Gu Scripture" (Fragnt)].
After a rough glance, he discovered it contained the second half content!
Combined with the first half he had and the part deduced by the Azure Darkness Seal, it ford a complete Cultivation Technique!
It also contained Yin Tiankou’s own notes and annotations; he had already conceived the initial idea of "Transforming into Thousands of Forms."
"That move indeed had so tricks; when I fought against it, I used all my ans, yet almost t defeat."
"Moreover, in so sense, it touched upon the threshold of immortality, considered the ultimate Divine Skill in Gu Cultivation."
"Now with the foundation laid, through the Azure Darkness Seal’s deduction, it can eventually be perfected, even improved and optimized, leading to a qualitative leap in power!"
"But that’s actually secondary..."
The greatest strength of the Gu God Sect lies in its rapid developnt speed; implanting Gu Poison Worms into the human body can mass-produce experts!
That’s why they repeatedly revive, hard to eradicate!
Now, with Yin Tiankou and many elders dead, this could be the only surviving copy in the world. Utilizing this Magic Technique can amass followers, rapidly expand power, and even rank among the Eight Great Sects!
It’s currently listed as a Forbidden Skill by the court!
"Tributor Zhong, isn’t this a bit inappropriate?" Chen Mo frowned.
"A Cultivation Technique has no inherent good or evil; it depends on the user." Zhong Lihe waved, "Rest assured, as long as Mr. Chen doesn’t draw attention, no one will know the Cultivation Technique is with you. Of course, if you don’t want it, feel free to burn it."
"This... alright, thank you, Tributor Zhong."
Chen Mo hesitated for a mont before eventually accepting it.
The "Gu Scripture" might be wicked, but so of its Magic Techniques could indeed be of great use to him.
"I should be the one thanking Mr. Chen instead." Zhong Lihe said with a chuckle, "It was my misjudgnt that allowed Yin Tiankou to escape, causing such a ss. It’s all thanks to Mr. Chen that it was resolved cleanly."
Chen Mo: "..."
This felt slightly awkward.
"I’m a straightforward man, unfamiliar with fancy words. Should Mr. Chen ever need assistance, just let know, and I will not refuse." Zhong Lihe cupped his hands, turned, and boarded the flying boat.
