Chapter 1096. A Heaven-shaking Secret (1/2)

The beautiful woman struggled to suppress the shock in her heart and slowly said, “This corpse… this is only the divine sense imprint of the Divine Emperor. Unless I see the real corpse, it is difficult for this little woman to decide…”

However, the corpse from inside the jade constantly emerged in her head and made her heart pound.

“Oh?” Wang Lin looked at the woman as he blew the hot tea and calmly said, “Is that so? Then let’s forget about it. I originally didn’t have much hope for this, so knowing or not knowing doesn’t matter much.”

The beautiful woman’s expression changed and she immediately said, “Did Divine Emperor give Li Yunzi the same jade?”

Wang Lin took a sip of tea and casually said, “That’s correct.”

The beautiful woman pondered a bit, then she looked at Wang Lin with a hint of respect and said, “I can’t decide on this matter now, but, Divine Emperor, please give me seven days. I’ll definitely give Divine Emperor an answer in seven days!”

Wang Lin put down the tea cup and smiled. “Fellow Cultivator Li doesn’t need to worry. I found this corpse by accident, but I was unable to retrieve it. That’s why I asked Fellow Cultivator Li to help identify it.”

The beautiful woman was very cunning, and now that she had calmed down, she naturally knew that Wang Lin hadn’t just simply given up this jade. This had a deeper meaning.

Moreover, this Wang Lin had already prepared these jades. He had gifted one to Li Yunzi first and then gave one to her!

After hesitating for a bit, she cautiously said, “I’m afraid I won’t be able to attend the Divine Emperor’s coronation ceremony. I’ll take my leave first.”

Wang Lin didn’t try to keep her here; he let Li Yingzhi leave the hall. She turned into a ray of light and quickly left.

Wang Lin withdrew his gaze from where the woman disappeared. He had already released the bait. Now he just had to see if Allheaven and the Corpse Sect would be tempted.

“They will definitely be tempted!” Wang Lin turned around to look at Mo Zhi and smiled. He stood up and the armor and cloak disappeared. Wang Lin was wearing a white robe as he clasped his hands at Mo Zhi and smiled. “Brother Mo, it has been many years since we last met. You still look as good as ever!”

Mo Zhi got up and clasped his hands. There was a hint of melancholy on his face as he smiled. “I’m afraid it has been almost 1,000 years since we last met.”

Wang Lin’s eyes were also filled with reminiscence as he let out a sigh and said, “Brother Mo, our reunion was predestined. You and I must debate dao again. I still remember that rainy night.”

Mo Zhi smiled and nodded. The two of them walked out of the hall.

The space around the volcano where Wang Lin was cultivating twisted. Wang Lin stepped out, followed by Mo Zhi.

Looking at the black smoke coming out of the volcano, Wang Lin sat down. He slapped his bag and took out two bottles. After throwing one at Mo Zhi, Wang Lin took a drink and said, “The rain is born from the sky and dies on the earth. The process in between is life… I have taken this to heart.”

Mo Zhi picked up the bottle and sat down. There was reminiscence in his eyes, and he smiled. “When I was part of the Alliance, I was stationed at planet Suzaku at the request of my teacher. On that rainy night, I felt something, so I went out for a walk and unexpectedly met Brother Wang.

“Brother Wang Lin, you would have gained enlightenment on your own regarding your life and death domain even if I hadn’t given the pointer.”

Wang Lin shook his head. Sometimes, when you just barely understand but at the same time don’t, no matter how much you think about it, it will feel as if there is a something blocking your path. No matter how hard you try to break through, you won’t be enlightened.

“The second time I met Brother Wang in the Suzaku Tomb, I originally wanted Brother Wang to become the lord of planet Suzaku, but it seems I had underestimated Brother Wang.” Mo Zhi looked sincere as he picked up the wine and took a drink.

“I didn’t expect Brother Wang to be the Vermillion Bird Divine Emperor in our third meeting. I’m very happy for you.”

The two people caught up while drinking wine. The memories of the past 1,000 years were shared and time passed quickly. It was as if they had returned back to that temple on that rainy night.

“Brother Wang’s life and death domain has already reached completion and has changed. Your current domain is not something I can comprehend. However, my teacher said that all domains are related to your state of mind. When your heart changes, so does your domain.

“Perhaps this will be helpful to Brother Wang.”

As the two debated dao, time gradually passed. Early in the morning, Mo Zhi said his farewells. He didn’t stay to attend Wang Lin’s coronation ceremony. He left with four piece of jade that Wang Lin had given him and the matter entrusted to him.

The news recorded in the four jades was enough to shock the entire Alliance. Mo Zhi had to quickly hand it over to his master and then give them to the three other Alliance forces.

As for their country of Chu Yun, with Wang Lin’s vague hints, Mo Zhi understood something, so he naturally wouldn’t let his teacher get involved.

After sending away Mo Zhi, there were more people that came to congratulate Wang Lin, but he didn’t meet any of them. Time quickly passed and the day of the coronation ceremony arrived.
