Chapter 1106: New Princess (2/2)

Wahuang listened to Lu Yun’s recounting with a tight frown. None of the previous sacred lands could’ve managed this. Their backer was strong, but the level of strength they controlled was far from being able to dictate the existence of something like the Blood Sea.

If it wasn’t for someone else taking action and destroying the human dao hell, the nine sacred lands would’ve never been able to propel the end of human dao rule.

Even when Emperors Fall was long past, the roots of human dao were well and deeply established. That dao had fashioned the entire world into a solid, united whole. In the absence of experts from the nine sacred lands personally arriving in the worlds, they had no chance of emerging victorious at all.

When the Blood Sea left the worlds after the destruction of human hell and fled into the chaos, the nine sacred lands had sent people to intercept it, resulting in the Blood Sea weakening by half its strength.

Wahuang had always thought that the Blood Sea had remained in the tomb after that point—who would’ve thought that it’d surreptitiously slip back at some point!

The implications were too awful to consider.

“I need to make another visit no matter what. Even if I can’t collect the Blood Sea, I need to take some of its core essence and plant it in hell,” Lu Yun said firmly.

“I’ll go with you.” Wahuang didn’t refuse to consider his idea.

“No, you can’t!” Lu Yun rejected outright. “You’re too big of a target, someone will discover you once you go back to the tomb. Little Yu and I will be enough.”

Wahuang quirked her lips when she heard Lu Yun mention Qing Yu.

“Tsk tsk, just look at these ulterior motives of yours. Fine, I’ll take you to Creation Palace,” she acceded with annoyance.

The little fox darted out of an unknown hiding spot and landed on Lu Yun’s shoulder.

“Going to Creation Palace to see Qing Yu? What, are you going to confess?” she asked bashfully.

Lu Yun’s expression fell immensely from his previous gravity of discussing matters of utmost seriousness.

……

A fine show was taking place in Creation Palace.

The Creation princess had acted on her faction’s behalf and broken off ties with Inception Palace. Huaxu had finally emerged from closed door cultivation, so the princess was analyzing the pros and cons of the situation in front of everyone in the palace.

“Your Majesty, the Creation Palace will become an Inception vassal sooner or later if the situation continues like this! We’ll have to look to them for permission to do anything!” the princess declared passionately.

Ying Luo was on her hands and knees in front of the main hall of the central palace, silently awaiting her monarch’s judgment. She’d handed over her understanding of the way beyond the chaos, but it looked like the palace wasn’t planning on letting her off the hook.

At the same time, many were curious who the girl standing beside Huaxu was. Why was she standing beside the monarch? That position had once belonged to their prince and no one had appeared there ever since his death.

“Mm, I understand.” Huaxu nodded gently. “None of this is important.”

“Eh?” The Creation princess and palace disciples all shifted with surprise.

“I have an announcement to make.” Huaxu smiled. “This is Qing Yu, the new sacred princess of Creation Palace.”

“What?!” General shock reigned with these words, the former Creation princess most of all.
