1007 The Heavenly Dragon Treasure Carriage (2/2)
Outside, Dutian Devil King waved his whip, and the dragons rose into the air, pulling the carriage with them. The wheels of the carriage moved and created a Black Tortoise peculiarity, enough to cross the long and winding celestial river.
\”Where are we going, Cult Master?\”
Dutian Devil King's voice came from the outside as he said, \”There are many Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridges in the celestial heavens that connect it to thousands of worlds. If we use one, we can save a lot of time.\”
Qin Mu was going to speak when Yun Chuxiu excitedly interrupted him, saying, \”The East Pole first!\”
Qin Mu could no longer tolerate her. With a serious expression, he pointed at her, trembling. He laughed out of anger and said, \”Yuanmu, you have fallen like a broken can and lost all of your demeanor. Don't forget how I beat up your bastard child Celestial Venerable Hao until he couldn't take care of himself for a thousand years! It was even in front of you, and you couldn't do anything!\”
Yun Chuxiu jumped on him and carefully hammered his legs. She looked up at him and pitifully said, \”Don't be angry, Celestial Venerable. How do you know I'm Yuanmu? Did someone reveal something in the Great Void? Although I do like it when you're angry…\”
He had no way to unleash his anger, so he humphed.
Yun Chuxiu smiled and said, \”Hao'er isn't good at all. He schemed against his father and me! He was too weak to do it himself, so he hired Celestial Venerable Ling to deal with me instead. Luckily, I was smart enough to defend myself against Celestial Venerable Ling. I faked my death at her hands, allowing her to grant me my wish. I was originally angry about you beating him up, but I became happy that you did it.\”
She hammered Qin Mu's legs and excitedly said, \”A lot of Celestial Venerables will strike out against you during this trip, including Hao'er! You offended him too badly! People want to see him beat you up personally!\”
Qin Mu said disappointingly, \”It would be bad if Celestial Venerable Hao beat me to death. Go back to your seat to rest, there's no need to hammer my legs. Dutian, we are going to the Primordial Realm first instead of the East Pole. It has been a long time since I was there. I want to visit friends and relatives back home first.\”
Dutian Devil King nodded and had the dragons pull the carriage towards a Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge.
Yun Chuxiu excitedly ran out of the carriage to take in the view while holding onto its pole.
Divine King Lang Wo looked at Qin Mu with some visible suspicion. Qin Mu used his consciousness to transmit his voice, \”She's Mistress Yuanmu of the ten Celestial Venerables. However, I don't know who among the ten she is. Mistress Yuanmu is an ancient god born from the Ruins of End. She's the mistress of Celestial Emperor and the younger sister of Celestial Empress.\”
\”Her temper is weird.\”
Divine King Lang Wo asked, \”As Mistress Yuanmu of the Ruins of End, shouldn't she act proper, dignified, and magnanimous? How is she like this?\”
Qin Mu sighed. This Mistress Yuanmu's personality had become elusive after taking on Jue Wuchen's appearance.
Shu Jun used his consciousness to cut into their communication and said, \”Ancient God Yuanmu controlled the power to destroy everything. In the primordial era, she was like this, annoying yet lovable.\”
Qin Mu glanced at him and asked, \”Divine King Shu Jun, did you know that the ancient Celestial Emperor was born from an egg?\”
Shu Jun nodded and said, \”I did.\”
Qin Mu hastily asked, \”Then, where did the egg come from?\”
\”I don't know about that.\”
Shu Jun shook his head and said, \”We don't know where the Grand Primordium Origin Stone and Grand Primordium Divine Stones came from either, nor do we know the origins of the primordial liquid or the great beasts of the primordial era. The egg of the ancient Celestial Emperor was picked up by the Grand Emperor's people in the ancestral courts. I know little about this.\”
Qin Mu frowned.
Shu Jun continued, \”Accordingly, the Grand Emperor's clan realized that the egg was big and filled with life after discovering it. Thus, the life had to be older than us, just dormant. In the early days, they even worshipped it like a holy object. After finding the Grand Primordium Divine Stones, we became gods, so they threw the egg away. Someday, someone took it out and continued to worship it. It was then that the ancient Celestial Emperor was born from it! They created their own tragedies.\”
He shook his head and sighed.
The breaking out of the ancient Celestial Emperor from his egg was the beginning of the masters of creation's extinction.
\”Which Celestial Venerables, in your opinion, will strike out against you during this trip?\”
Divine King Lang Wo inquired, \”Just now, Yuanmu said that Celestial Venerable Hao will strike. Besides him, who else will?\”
Yun Chuxiu poked in and said, \”We entered the Spirit Energy Mutual Shift Bridge! What are you guys talking about?\”
Qin Mu calmed himself down, looked at the howling light outside, and said, \”We were talking about who will strike out against me during this trip outside of the celestial heavens. Mistress Yuanmu, I believe you think someone's trying to kill me this time, right?\”
\”Don't call me Yuanmu. I'm Yun Jianli's younger sister now. I'm following you down to find my brother.\”
Yun Chuxiu thought about it and said, \”Every Celestial Venerable has a reason to do so, even me. However, the celestial heavens still has a lot of secrets that you aren't privy to. The one you harmed the most isn't Hao'er, it's the Grand Emperor. He hid well enough, yet you revealed that he's amongst us. I don't think he will sit well with that.\”
Qin Mu asked, \”If you can guess that the Grand Emperor will strike, the other Celestial Venerables probably guessed that too. Will he still strike?\”
Yun Chuxiu blinked and, after a while, leisurely said, \”The celestial heavens had an eleventh Celestial Venerable. However, he has been dead for 40,000 years. He was the one who used the ancient Celestial Emperor's corporeal body to kill Celestial Venerable Ling. He was trapped to death in her divine art. His corporeal body should still be intact. If he's the Grand Emperor and is still alive, this corporeal body of his will mobilize.\”
She smiled. \”If he does use it to kill you, no one will be able to expose him.\”
Qin Mu's heart shuddered as he let out a ragged breath. \”How smart. He won't be able to hide if his corporeal body leaves the celestial heavens. In that case, you guys…\”
Yun Chuxiu shook her head and said, \”It's not in the celestial heavens.\”
Qin Mu was slightly stunned.
Yun Chuxiu giggled and said, \”He was buried in the Primordial Realm. I told you to go to the East Pole first, yet you insisted on going to the Primordial Realm. Aren't you seeking death?\”
Qin Mu's mind was blown. Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and Dutian Devil King's said, \”Cult Master, we're at the Primordial Realm!\”
