Chapter 545: Chapter 535: Dazzling Stars 1

Everything Dilaka did was for his one and only closed-door disciple. More than that, he wanted to make it up to Mu Chen for the guilt he felt toward Qiye. He never wanted to lose someone so important again.

"Okay, I’ll tell Aoqing."

Mu Chen agreed with almost no hesitation. It wasn’t for any other reason than the fact that Chu Aoqing had always stood up for him, always saved him during a crisis—even when it came to the secret of his Nine Attributes Dantian. It wasn’t lust clouding his judgment, nor was it romantic fantasy. It was trust.

"In that case, let’s head to the Eternal Holy Domain as soon as possible so we don’t waste any more time." Seeing that the sun had fully risen, Dilaka turned to Mu Chen and said.

"Mm."

But just as they were preparing to take flight, a furious roar echoed outside the office. It seemed to shake the entire Golden Sword Realm.

"DILAKA!!!"

The voice was incredibly familiar. Mu Chen and Chu Aoqing exchanged a glance. "That sounds like..." Mu Chen trailed off, confused.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Okay, okay, hurry, hurry, or we’ll be too late!" Without giving Mu Chen a chance to finish, a sweaty Dilaka grabbed one of them in each hand. With a single step, the space around them flared with a faint golden light. He inexplicably left a Clone behind as he vanished from the office with a WHOOSH.

The instant Dilaka vanished with the other two, a figure abruptly appeared where he had just been. It was none other than the Holy Mark Tripod Master, Elder Ling—Linghai!

"DILAKA!! You bastard! You took all of my Dragon Soul Pills!! That was a hundred years of savings!! You didn’t even leave me a single one!! Just watch me burn this office of yours to the ground!! Huh?"

Red in the face and snorting with rage, Linghai glared like a furious lion at the ’Dilaka’ sitting at the desk. But as soon as the words left his mouth, he realized something wasn’t right.

He cautiously approached ’Dilaka’ and poked his body with a finger. The Clone instantly burst, and the golden smoke even formed the shape of a pig’s head.

Linghai’s eyes bulged, and he spat a mouthful of blood onto Dilaka’s desk. "Fine! Just fine!" he roared. "If I don’t burn this office to the ground, my name isn’t Linghai!!"

The moment he finished speaking, blazing blue-white Fire Flame erupted from his hand with a WHOOSH. But in that same instant, the entire golden realm began to tremble violently. Linghai looked up at the sky in astonishment as immense pressure descended. A massive golden palace slowly lowered itself from above, and countless Golden Swords, like vicious golden serpents, fixed their sharp points on Linghai.

The feeling sent a chill down even Linghai’s spine.

"Dammit! That old bastard actually left the Sword Palace here! You just wait! I can’t beat you, but the Dean has my back! We’ll see what happens when I report you!" With that, Linghai leaped into the air and vanished from the office.

Just then, Dilaka, who was traveling through the spatial tunnel, let out a soft chuckle. It held a surprising, childlike innocence that left both Mu Chen and Chu Aoqing speechless. ’Truly,’ they thought, ’the older you get, the more childish you become.’

Just as they were thinking this, the spatial tunnel before them suddenly radiated a dazzling light. They had reached the exit.

WHOOSH!

A ripple in space accompanied the appearance of three figures. A mythical world unfolded before Mu Chen’s eyes. Here, ethereal mists drifted about, making it seem like the Divine Realm itself. Colorful lights scattered in every direction, yet they were so soft they weren’t the least bit jarring to the eyes.

"This is..." Dilaka released his grip. Mu Chen looked around, taking a step forward in a daze. "The Eternal Holy Domain?"

"The Eternal Holy Domain..."
