755 Acciden (1/2)
In fact, not seeing the Celestial Thearch made Fang Yuan secretly heave a sigh of relief.
Although his disguise was able to deceive Ancient Gods, an Emperor's magical powers were extensive and would likely see through his concealment.
However, Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang with her smiling eyes still gave him the illusion that he was completely exposed in front of her.
”Loose cultivator Fang Yuan, first appeared in Xi Nation. Made friends with Cheng Fei of the Vast Ocean Sect, entered the Valley of Fallen Gods, and obtained the Deity Position of Lord Bright Jade… The Three Mountains and Five Rivers arrangements were all done by Lord Bright Jade, but benefited you instead!” Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang said in a clear voice without any impurities, appearing to be greatly familiar with Fang Yuan's origins.
”What?”
Fang Yuan retreated a step 'in shock', but his heart did not fluctuate at all.
If the standards of the Heavenly Court could not even investigate all this, he would be a little disappointed.
”Fang Yuan… what courage!” Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang was still smiling before, but the next moment, her gaze was piercingly hot and her voice seemed loaded with ice. ”Usurping the Deity Position, integrating the Mountains and Rivers, killing Heaven Immortals, and annihilating a sect… The punishment for these crimes are sufficient to warrant you a trip to the God Killing Stage. Do you admit your wrongdoings?”
”No!” Fang Yuan shook his head. ”I only know that the Celestial Thearch enlisted me into the Heavenly Court with a heavenly decree to give me work based on my abilities. There was nothing about charging me with any crimes!”
”Huh!?”
Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang was a little astonished. It was truly rare to find a God outrightly denying even at this stage.
She turned her gaze and suddenly laughed. The entire palace seemed to bloom and light up.
This Goddess is truly fickle and enigmatic…
Fang Yuan thought as the Heavenly Consort started to speak again. ”Very good… But it's the first time you're entering the Heavenly Court and your responsibilities are all arranged by my Messenger Office. Aren't you afraid that I'll send you to a desolate land like the Mental Demon Battlefield? There's a shortage of manpower there…”
Of course, this was what Fang Yuan wanted, but he could not appear too excited. Instead, he was silent, giving off an anxious atmosphere.
At the same time, he was inwardly doubtful. Why does this Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang give me such a weird feeling?
This Goddess should only be at the Heaven Immortal rank. However, within the Heavenly Court, her title as a Heavenly Consort and her noble status were probably not inferior to an Ancient God Duke or King.
However, there was an inexplicable feeling of uncertainty that something was wrong when Fang Yuan saw her.
This was not a result of seeing through any disguise, but purely a mysterious kind of innate spiritual senses. It was the unique intuition he had obtained after promoting to the Body of Origin Power.
”What? You don't believe me?” Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang continued provoking him, ”Before you ascended to the Heavenly Court, you offended the Heaven Supervisor Department. Although their head, Duke East Woods, is an Ancient God, his temperament isn't good and won't accept you…”
She pointed out kindly, as if she wanted to pull Fang Yuan over to her camp and extended an olive branch.
Fang Yuan rolled his eyes. ”Are you trying to draw me over, Heavenly Consort? What benefits can I obtain?”
Evidently, there could only be one goal in mind for her to be bluffing and blustering—to draw Fang Yuan over!
Seeing through all this, he was naturally too lazy to speak in a roundabout and courteous manner, going straight to the point.
”You're so straightforward!”
A gleam of astonishment flashed in Heavenly Consort Yun Xiang's eyes.
Evidently, the various situations she made use of to pressure him did not affect this God too much.
”That's right… I want to draw you over as you're very valuable and have a Deity Position with boundless potential and foundation…” She looked at her white jade-like fingers. ”What about it? As long as you're under my command, I can ensure your safety on the Mental Demon Battlefield. Furthermore, it's possible for me to place you in the lower realm and allow you to continue being the master of the Three Mountains and Five Rivers!”
These conditions was undeniably generous.
To a true Earthly God, being able to return to dominating their area and continue using the support of the Three Mountains and Five Rivers' power to gain enlightenment on the Ancient God path were extremely enticing temptations.
”Maybe… I can even give you some assistance and help you ascend to Ancient God!”
The Heavenly Consort's words were becoming more and more enticing, having an alluring tone to it.
Fang Yuan fell into deep thought.
After a while, he asked, ”If I defect to Heavenly Consort's camp, can I not be conscripted to the Mental Demon Battlefield?”
”Cannot!” The Heavenly Consort lightly shook her head. ”The reason why I attracted you was because I hope you'll enter the Mental Demon Battlefield and help me do something.”
”Go to the Mental Demon Battlefield to do something?” Fang Yuan was slightly surprised. ”What is it?”
”When the moment arrives, you'll know!” The Heavenly Consort laughed mysteriously. ”What's your reply then?”
Fang Yuan seemed to struggle for a moment before finally spreading his arms and laughing bitterly. ”What other choice do I have?”
”Very good. This is the decision made by a wise person! I don't need you to swear an oath on your Deity Position, and you just need to directly hold this token!”
The Heavenly Consort seemed to be very satisfied as she waved her jade hand lightly. A yellow token landed in Fang Yuan's hands. ”This is a token of my Messenger Office and represents my authority. With it, Duke East Woods won't dare touch you! Go!”
She looked at Fang Yuan, seemingly having a trace of secrecy in her pupils.
With the token in hand, it naturally needed to be refined.
