She was indeed Zhao Ruide’s first daughter, Zhao Yuhuan.
"Big Brother, you’ve finally returned." Zhao Yuhuan excitedly hugged her brother’s hand.
"Zhu Zhu has grown so much." Zhao Xing touched his sister’s head.
Zhao Yuhuan was born in the 22nd year of the Jingxin Calendar, and now she is eighteen years old.
"Big Brother."
A young man with a beard and a burly build erged from the doorway; it was his brother Zhao Zheng.
"Perfect timing, you’re ho too." Zhao Xing smiled as he approached and patted Zhao Zheng’s shoulder, then bowed to Mrs. Cai.
"Co, let’s go in and chat."
...
On the twenty-fifth day of the fifth month, year three of Da Zhi.
Zhao Xing left a clone at ho and quietly left the Princess Mansion.
He went to a secluded place to ponder.
"Excluding travel ti, there are only ten days left."
"Should I take a look at Dream Palace?"
Zhao Xing hesitated because he had once sworn to the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird and must wholeheartedly assist each other.
Upon his previous visit, he discovered that the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird could choose whether to give it their all.
Its deanor also varied; at tis it appeared foolish, other tis profound and unfathomable.
"I should still pay a visit."
"Now that I am already a third-grade life soul, if there is any abnormality, I should have noticed."
"When I signed the Dream God Contract, if I indeed find any issues this ti, my main soul will split into seven; at worst, I lose one part of my main soul."
Zhao Xing used the Escape Skill, venturing into the depths beneath the earth.
"Divide!"
Zhao Xing’s true self and clone simultaneously manifested identical life souls.
He then opened a space beneath the earth, lay down, and attached a Taoist talisman on himself, chanting: "Student Zhao Xing, humbly requests the Dream Palace to open the gate of learning."
"Buzz~"
Going in this ti, Zhao Xing clearly sensed a division.
While his true self and main soul outside maintained a conscious perspective.
The one asleep was the main soul clone.
Simultaneously, another perspective erged.
Dream Palace.
Heavenly chanism Hall.
"Buzz~"
Zhao Xing still found himself directly inside the Heavenly chanism Hall, bypassing the Academic Palace’s entrance.
"Caw caw caw~"
As soon as he arrived, he heard the call of the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird.
Familiar cabinet, familiar bald bird.
Zhao Xing cupped his hands towards the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird: "Greetings, esteed elder."
"Zhao Xing, you’re still alive; I’m delighted." The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird’s tone sounded sowhat excited: "And you’re actually beco so powerful."
"Third-grade life soul, caw caw caw!"
"It seems the turmoil within your dynasty has cald down, and you’ve gained trendous benefits."
Zhao Xing smiled: "Thank you for your assistance, esteed elder. Indeed, I’ve reached the third-grade realm."
"Is there anything I can do to help you?"
The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird shook its head: "No, you cannot help now."
Zhao Xing nodded: "Then, esteed elder, are you well?"
The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird shook its head again: "I’m doing well. Over five years, I’m almost recovered. Do you have a request?"
Not speaking the truth... Zhao Xing subtly shook his head: "I don’t want to trouble you greatly this ti. I just want to look around the Heavenly chanism Hall and check so records."
The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird’s eyes flashed a mont of contemplation: "Alright, what would you like to see?"
"Do you have any records about the Dragon Court here?"
The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird tilted its head: "Dragon Court? The ancient Dragon Court? Let think... Yes, I rember!"
Zhao Xing was startled, he was just asking casually, did it truly have?
During his mont of surprise, the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird suddenly left the cabinet and flew to the upper layers.
Before long, it returned wrapped in a pile of books, stone slabs, and carvings.
"Clunk~"
The items piled up like a mountain.
"They should all be here." The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird flapped its wings. "See if this is what you’re looking for?"
Zhao Xing cupped his hands: "Thank you, esteed elder."
Then he began to examine and browse the mountain of records.
This ti, Zhao Xing didn’t aim to comprehend but to morize firmly.
While he read, the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird silently watched him from above the cabinet.
Yet Zhao Xing remained calm and composed, his emotions unwavering.
After nine days had passed in the outside world, Zhao Xing finally rose from the piles of books.
"Whew~" Zhao Xing exhaled.
"Thank you, esteed elder, I have gained considerably."
"Good, as long as you gained sothing, caw caw." The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird issued two dry laughs.
"I won’t disturb your rest any longer, esteed elder. I shall take my leave first."
Upon seeing the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird nod, Zhao Xing disappeared from the Heavenly chanism Hall.
Watching his disappearing figure, a hint of red light flickered in the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird’s eyes.
"He’s discovered your abnormality~" The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird suddenly opened its mouth and taunted.
"Yang Yanzhen!" The Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird exclaid sharply, "Why do you haunt endlessly!"
"Hmph, in life, you’re my Da Li’s bird; in death, you’re my Da Li’s dead bird!"
"Caw!!! Go die caw!!!"
...
In the underground space, Zhao Xing’s main soul clone awoke from the dream.
After careful contemplation, his true self didn’t absorb the main soul clone.
Instead, he directly caused this main soul clone to explode.
"Boom!"
Zhao Xing’s complexion turned sowhat pale.
He then unfolded his Pure Essence Projection and took out two fruits surrounded by white mist to consu.
Holding the Purple Moon Soul Lamp, Zhao Xing calculated on his fingers, then used the Three God Confluence to inspect the Karma Soul, before opening his eyes: "The Dream God Contract binds , but not the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird."
"It’s unclear when, but although I’m trading with the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Bird, there’s a third force interfering in the Dream God Contract."
Now that Zhao Xing has reached the third-grade life soul, with the Creation Plate’s concealnt, Heavenly chanism Robe and Purple Moon Soul Lamp’s protection, he also captured exactly where the abnormality cos from.
