Chapter 940 - Stealing Treasure (1/2)

The lady officer was extremely unfamiliar; she had nine faces, a body with serpent scales and tail. She was a Xiang Liu Celestial Race's officer. Upon detecting Zhong Yue's vision, she immediately turned around, also surprised at what she saw.

A smile then emerged on her nine faces.

It was Si Ming, the other female Fuxi. Unexpectedly, she had snuck back into the Heaven Court, putting on a disguise as an officer. Judging by her attire this time, she was seemingly a court lady that served Goddess Queen Monarch.

The officers in the Heaven Court all represented corresponding stars. The reasons behind it were to ease cultivation and also to identify everyone to minimize infiltration by enemies. So how did she manage to become a court lady?

Questions ran wild in Zhong Yue's mind. He had only met Si Ming three times including this time but each time, she always gave Zhong Yue a greater sense of mystery.

"Help me to steal something."

Si Ming's voice sounded in Zhong Yue's psyche ocean and when he noticed the Xiang Liu Celestial Race's court lady was walking further and further away, Zhong Yue decided not to follow without hesitation. In the Heaven Court, he was also one of the centers of attraction, one of the main priorities of the Division of Surveillance. Thus, if he followed behind Si Ming, it would risk exposing Si Ming.

Besides, with Hundun Yu sticking around him every second, it was very hard to meet Si Ming alone by himself.

Si Ming will come looking for me. I wonder what is her target this time. There are now 8 monarchs in the Heaven Court and Goddess Shen Hou is also one of them. With the 8 monarchs present and the 36 army divisions, she is really a brave one trying to steal something!

Zhong Yue's eyes blinked, What is she trying to steal?

At this same time, another voice sounded out in Zhong Yue's mind, "Little friend Yi, do you mind having your friend on the side to meet up with me?"

Zhong Yue's heart thumped intensively and he almost shouted in surprise because this voice belonged to Celestial Monarch Jin Wu!

At this time, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu should be inside with the other monarchs. He never thought Celestial Monarch Jin Wu would contact him!

Zhong Yue calmed himself down and he replied to the voice in his psyche ocean, "Which friend?"

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu's voice sounded immediately, "The little friend from the Hundun Clan."

Zhong Yue nodded and quickly, he realized that Celestial Monarch Jin Wu would not be able to see the nod so he replied, "Okay."

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu's voice vanished quickly and second later, Hundun Yu said, "Mister Yi, Celestial Monarch Jin Wu told me that he wants to meet me."

Zhong Yue replied, "He also told me about this, just go and meet him later. I don't mind."

Hundun Yu was feeling a little out of sorts upon hearing this and asked, "Can you come with me then?"

Zhong Yue burst out laughing and he explained, "Celestial Monarch Jin Wu wants to meet you, not me. How can I possibly tag along?"

Sometime later, rumbling laughter was heard coming of Ling Xiao Palace. Seconds later, Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan and the other Imperial Emperors were exiting the palace. The Heavenly Monarch then said with a smile, "My friends, the journey must have been a long one, please stay here for a few days and wait for the banquet."

Celestial Monarch Jin Wu, Demon Monarch Yang Hou, and the others nodded and Heavenly Monarch Tian Yuan summoned an officer to tend to the accommodations for the guests.

The palaces that the six monarchs stayed in were named the Six Imperial Courts, which meant that the six courts were as important as the Heavenly Monarch. They were assigned to the six guests in order to highlight their equally high position.

Zhong Yue then returned to the West Heaven Palace, where his accommodation was wrecked by the Fusang Divine Tree and only the walls preserved.

Not long later, a messenger came to see him with an invitation letter. The messenger clarified his purpose here politely, "The ancient universe's Celestial Monarch Jin Wu wants to invite the senior martial brother from the Hundun Clan over."

Zhong Yue accepted the letter and said to Hundun Yu with a smile, "There's the messenger. Now go."

Hundun Yu, however, shook his head and replied, "The grand ancestor has given you the Chaos Divine Fruit so you wouldn't chase me away! I have to follow you wherever you go! You must come with me!"

Zhong Yue lost his words for a moment and he replied, "Your grand ancestor wanted you to follow me, not the other way around. This time, it is Celestial Monarch Jin Wu that wants to meet you, not me. How am I supposed to follow you when I am not invited?"

Hearing this, Hundun Yu also felt difficult. In the end, Hundun Yu had no choice but to leave with the messenger and that was when Zhong Yue suddenly received Si Ming's message. He blinked his eyes and immediately notified Fu Li, "Fu Li, go to the North Heaven Palace with my clone and find my wife. I have to be somewhere else for the time being."

Another Zhong Yue then walked out of his body and stood beside Fu Li.

After that, the clone Zhong Yue and Fu Li immediately headed to the North Heaven Palace and just as they left, Zhong Yue's appearance drastically changed; he had turned himself into a human body and goat-headed god. Then, he walked out of the wreckage and started heading towards Si Ming.

A moment later, Zhong Yue turned around and he saw a Xiang Liu lady officer standing on top of a floating bridge. He met up with her, to which Si Ming quickly frowned upon examining him, "No can do. This appearance of yours will not take you anywhere. You have to disguise as a lady."

"A lady?"

Zhong Yue frowned, "Why?"

"Because I am the court lady serving under Goddess Queen Monarch now. I am now under her orders to head over to her place. Do you think that there will be a man among her court ladies? Can you disguise as a lady?"

Zhong Yue's eyes rolled around and he asked, "What are you trying to steal?"

"Of course it's something extraordinary. It is very important to the Fuxi Celestial Race." replied Si Ming without showing any other emotions, "Are you coming or not?"

Zhong Yue bit his lips and said, "Alright, I will come with you. You…."

Upon having his words, Si Ming immediately dragged Zhong Yue away and they stopped before a palace. Si Ming then took out a mirror, which a lady officer's look appeared on it and Si Ming continued, "This is where I am staying right now to stay outside from the Division of Surveillance's eyes. After you put on her looks, this is how her voice sounds like…."
