Chapter 870 - Dilemmas and Denying! (1/2)

At the same time, he gave Wang Baole an independent satellite as his cave abode and base. In fact, after asking Wang Baole for his opinion, he immediately announced that Wang Baole was promoted to the role of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect’s grand elder and was of almost equivalent status to him.

Such courteous treatment made Wang Baole very pleased in his heart. After thanking the Sovereign Patriarch, he chose to regroup on the satellite. After all, he was very clear that the battle… was far from over. This was only the beginning.

As the entire sect was preparing and regrouping intensely, Wang Baole spread out his cultivation and sealed both the interior and exterior of his cave abode secret chamber. He even took out his twelve emperor puppets and Dharmic Battleships. After strengthening the seal and ensuring that no accidents would happen, he released the lady with his Divine Will, who he had trapped within his Dharmic Battleship.

Who exactly is she? Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and focused his attention on the lady who couldn’t hide her extreme anxiousness and desperation after being released. Her expression also obviously showed that she wished to die.

Focusing his gaze on the lady in front of him, Wang Baole spread out his Divine Will. After engulfing the lady with it, he checked her thoroughly. But after the check, his eyebrows furrowed slightly. Previously, on the battlefield, he took a hurried look at her and didn’t recognize her. Now that he looked thoroughly, with his own cultivation… he still couldn’t spot anything on the lady’s body. It was as though this body was really her true body.

The lady had a decent appearance. Judging from her appearance, she looked like she was around twenty years old. Her skin was white, and her figure was also very lithe and graceful. She was clad in rainbow-colored clothes, and not only did it not hide her beauty, but it gave her a sense of youthfulness. However, Wang Baole was very clear that once cultivators reached the Core Formation realm, the age they looked like no longer mattered.

So long as they were willing to use some cultivation to make themselves look young, it wasn’t a difficult spell to do. It was very common among cultivators, so one couldn’t tell a person’s age from their appearance alone. Normally, one would sweep their Divine Sense over them to sense whether there were signs of aging.

For example, although the lady seemed to be there with her true body, according to Wang Baole’s Divine Sense, she wasn’t old. And her cultivation was extraordinary, considering she was already a late-stage Nascent Soul.

That might not mean much in the Violet Gold civilization, but in the Federation, it was very rare for someone of that age to have such significant cultivation. At least, among the friends that Wang Baole remembered, none of them could reach that cultivation at that age except for him.

This made Wang Baole suspicious in his heart, as he couldn’t clearly distinguish her identity. So, his gaze gradually turned icy as he spoke slowly.

“Tell me your identity!”

His words were like a cold breeze, causing the temperature in the secret chamber to instantly lower by a lot, a chilly air faintly spreading. This caused the lady’s body to shiver slightly. After remaining silent for a few breaths, she lowered her head, seemingly trying her best to calm down, and then slowly spoke.

“I’m a disciple of the Violet Gold civilization’s Heavenly Spirit Sect’s Ancient Sword Peak… Chen Xuemei.”

Hearing the lady’s reply, Wang Baole’s eyebrows furrowed even tighter together, and his gaze turned icier. In fact, he became somewhat impatient. He was worried that his guess had become a reality and that one of his friends was killed by this lady, thereby giving her possession of his Divine Will. He wanted to search her soul directly, but he considered that if he had a lapse in judgment, such a soul search would definitely cause irreversible damage to her body.

So, Wang Baole narrowed his eyes and sized up the lady in front of him again. Although she tried her best to stay calm, Wang Baole could naturally see the anxiousness and desperation in her heart and the wish to die hidden in her eyes. That made him understand that the lady was already prepared to die there.

And just as Wang Baole was sizing the lady up, the voice transmission jade slip in his storage bag dispersed disturbances. Wang Baole lowered his hand, flipping his right hand to take out the voice transmission jade slip. He was just about to check it, but in the next moment, he raised his head violently, raised his right hand, and pointed at the lady.

“You wish to die?”

As he pointed, the lady’s body instantly froze, and her expression became extremely pale. Her body seemed to solidify, and no thoughts could be formed. She could only stand there as the desperation in her heart spread around her soul. The wish to die in her eyes couldn’t be hidden as it spread around her pupils, and she couldn’t help but cry. She wanted to close her eyes to hide her weakness, but her body couldn’t even do that now.

Wang Baole humphed, raised his right hand, and grabbed in mid-air. Instantly, a light sphere flew out of the lady’s glabella. The light sphere was his Divine Will, and it floated in front of Wang Baole after it returned.

The moment he had checked the voice transmission jade slip, he felt the disturbance of his Divine Will. The lady who claimed to be Chen Xuemei wanted to unleash the Divine Will while he wasn’t paying attention. She didn’t want to kill him. Instead, she wanted to… commit suicide!
