Chapter 158 How can a dead man compete with her?

After Bai Qingjue left, a guard whispered, "The Divine Child wants to see the Princess. The Princess will be very happy when she returns."

The lead guard turned to look at the others behind him: "You really intend to wait until the princess returns before you talk about this?"

"What if the princess returns but the divine child doesn't want to see her again?"

"This..." The guards didn't know what to do.

Their princess had always tried to please the divine prince, but the divine prince was indeed indifferent to her. This was the first time the divine prince had taken the initiative to say that he wanted to see the princess.

"Boss, what should we do?"

The head guard pointed to one of them: "You, go immediately and tell the princess's maid to contact her and convey the divine child's message." If the princess finds out, she will surely rush back, and the divine child shouldn't be so quick to decide not to see her.

"Yes." The guard responded and ran towards Xuan Yue Palace.

...

Qizhou Zhaoyue Empire Temple.

"Princess, why are we attending the human emperor's banquet?" The divine descendant in charge of this sealing looked at Xuan Yue on the chair and frowned, "His Majesty has ordered us to return as soon as we have reinforced the seal."

Xuan Yue raised her eyes to look at the divine descendant who was speaking: "I will explain to Father Emperor myself, you don't need to worry. As for why I attended the banquet hosted by the human emperor..." Xuan Yue chuckled: "Because this princess is in a good mood and is willing to do me the honor."

More than thirty years ago, a power surge occurred in the Hall of Longevity, and she learned that Qingjue had sent a wisp of soul power to Yunzhou without her noticing!

Chang Heng sacrificed herself in Yunzhou, and a successor to her power will appear on that land. Because of the influence of the divine power, the successor will bear some resemblance to the original.

Qingjue must have encountered Changheng's successor in that place, otherwise why would her power surge?

Fortunately, the power surge led them to discover this matter, and Qingjue also had them check. That wisp of soul power had disappeared, so there was no possibility that Bai Qingjue's soul power would remain in Yunzhou with Changheng.

She hated that even after Chang Heng's sacrifice for so many years, Qing Jue still had her in his heart!

She's been the one by Qingjue's side all these years, so why should a dead person compete with her?

Therefore, she wanted to come in person to watch everyone strengthen the seal, so that Changheng's successor would be forever trapped in that land and preferably be completely killed by those demons!

Xuan Yue gathered her thoughts and looked at the divine descendant standing to the side: "Is there anything else?"

The divine descendant shook his head, preparing to take his leave, when he saw the beaded chain on Xuan Yue's hand emit a light that formed a barrier, within which a maid from Xuan Yue Palace appeared.

When Xuan Yue saw that her maid had contacted her, she asked indifferently, "What is it?"

The maidservant bowed respectfully: "Princess, the Divine Child has come to the palace today, saying he wishes to see you."

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Xuan Yue suddenly stood up, both surprised and delighted. She asked the maid in disbelief, "Qing Jue really said he wanted to see me?"

The maid nodded: "This is the message of the divine child relayed by the guards, and it is absolutely true."

"Good, good, good!" Xuan Yue exclaimed excitedly, "This princess will be back right away." After saying that, Xuan Yue raised her hand and dispersed the light screen, looking at the divine descendants who had not yet left: "Send a message to the human emperor that we will not attend the banquet and will set off for Tianzhou immediately!"

The descendant of the gods nodded: "Alright."

The message was sent to the human emperor quickly, and whether the human emperor was happy, disappointed, or otherwise was not of concern to the descendants of the gods.

After the message was sent out, the group of divine descendants who had settled in the temple left immediately. When the emperor's men arrived, they didn't see a single one of them.

...

The next morning, after having breakfast, Ling Yi and his two companions left the inn and strolled around the city.

The capital city was particularly lively in the morning, with news spreading rapidly. When Ling Yi heard that the divine descendant had left without attending the banquet the night before, he stopped in his tracks.

Ye Qingshuang heard this too and muttered, "Weren't you supposed to participate? Why did you leave again?"

Baijiu: "Good riddance."

Once he leaves, he won't have to worry about bumping into them; he doesn't like the descendants of gods.

They left yesterday afternoon; Tianyan went into hibernation yesterday afternoon.

Coincidence? Ling Yi didn't believe it, but he didn't intend to ask. He just let Tian Yan continue to hide it.

"Let's go." Suppressing his thoughts, Ling Yi continued forward. Ye Qingshuang followed and asked, "Now that the divine descendants have left, should we bring Lin Chengtian and the others back?"

"It's only been one night, and we haven't gone too far. We can come back soon if we want to."

"No," Ling Yi refused. "Let him stay outside with Lin Xinze for a while."

"That's fine too." Ye Qingshuang didn't say anything more.

The three of them wandered around the city for a long time until they returned to the inn after dark.

"Rest." Ling Yi said before returning to her room, "We'll continue tomorrow."

"it is good."

"no problem."

Ye Qingshuang and Bai Jiu responded and returned to their respective rooms.

After returning to her room, Ling Yi did not rush to wash up. Instead, she took out the Heavenly Mandate. While searching in the city today, she had been keeping an eye on the Heavenly Mandate, but it had not responded.

"Didn't they say they would appear on their own when they sensed the summoning power?" Ling Yi said.

"Under normal circumstances, it will indeed happen, but there are also abnormal times," Tian Yan said. "Like the puppet vengeful spirit of the Northern Underworld Empire, if it's inside the body, it's difficult to detect."

Hearing this, even Ling Yi couldn't help but complain: "If it's really inside my body, I'm afraid I'll have to search for it here for many years."

"No." Tian Yan's tone carried a hint of a smile: "The Spirit-Gathering Pearl is different from the Mountain and River Mirror. The Spirit-Gathering Pearl possesses immense power; if it were inside the human body, ordinary people couldn't withstand it, showing signs of weakness."

Ling Yi understood, just like Bai Qingjue of the Northern Underworld Empire.

"I understand." Ling Yi put away her destiny and was about to wash up when a force struck her. In a flash, she was at the door.

The force didn't fly in; instead, it struck the window, tearing a large hole in the room and destroying much of the furniture inside.

Looking at the hole, Ling Yi was certain that the attack wasn't directed at him, but... the person who did it had destroyed the room where she was resting.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Ling Yi was at the door and opened it directly.

Ye Qingshuang and Baijiu were relieved to see that Ling Yi was alright. When they looked up again, they saw a room with a large hole in it. At that moment, the waiter ran over and said, "Don't panic, gentlemen. There's a fight outside. Please come with me, I'll get you a different room."

"Wait a minute." After Ling Yi finished speaking, he walked to the hole and looked down. It wasn't a fight as Xiao Er had said, but rather a siege.

Ling Yi glanced at the hole and stepped back.

Just then, Ye Qingshuang exclaimed in surprise, "My God! More than fifty Spirit Venerables are surrounding us! Who is sitting in that carriage?"

While a Spirit Venerable's cultivation level isn't considered high in the Zhaoyue Empire, the appearance of over fifty Spirit Venerables together requires considerable strength.

Of course, someone who can be besieged by more than fifty Spirit Venerables is more powerful.

Ye Qingshuang stepped back: "It would be troublesome if we got involved."
