Chapter 1289 Yaoxi Palace (1)
“I’m sorry, Palace Master Yan. I was late.” Yun Lintian flew over and said regretfully.
Along the way here, he saw unforgettably devastating scenes everywhere and couldn’t help blaming himself. If he had arrived here faster, this scene wouldn’t happen.
Yan Yaoting came back to his sense and shook his head. “It’s not your fault. We are too weak in front of them. If you hadn’t come, everyone here would be long gone by now.”
Yun Lintian took a bunch of storage rings out and handed them to Yan Yaoting. “Please take this. If they are not enough, you can tell me later.”
Yan Yaoting glanced at the contents inside the rings and was immediately shocked by the amount of resources. Even the entire Blazing Sun Palace treasury multiplied a thousand times, it couldn’t be compared with it.
“I have long heard about you. Your strength is indeed terrifying.” Yan Yingjun walked over and said calmly. His current appearance could be described as miserable.
Yun Lintian cupped his fists and said politely. “Greetings, Senior. Please let me help you.”
He then reached his hand out, sending a thick vine to wrap around Yan Yingjun’s body. All the injuries on the latter’s body quickly recovered at a visible rate.
Yan Yingjun was surprised and quickly calmed down. Although he stayed in seclusion all these years, he still paid attention to worldly affairs and naturally knew that Yun Lintian had obtained the legendary Tree of Life.
“You should return to the Northern Continent as soon as possible. I heard that an existence above the Divine Foundation Realm has shown up.” Yan Yingjun said with a serious expression.
“I can go with you if you need my help.”
Yun Lintian retracted the vine and said with a smile. “Thank you, Senior. But you don’t have to worry. I can safely say that the Northern Continent is the safest place in this world.
Yan Yingjun nodded slightly and said nothing further.
On the side, Yan Yaoting looked at the twenty-odd experts in the distance and asked curiously. “These people…”
Yun Lintian explained briefly. “They are the powerhouses in the past. They were stuck inside the Chaotic Sea Region all these years.”
“No wonder I find some of them look familiar.” Yan Yingjun said.
Yun Lintian was about to say something. He suddenly noticed a familiar aura from a distance in the sky. When he looked over, he saw a woman covered from head to toe fly over.
“Madam.” Yan Yaojing quickly greeted the woman.
It was only at this moment did Yun Lintian remember the woman’s identity. She was Madam Leisure, who secretly peeked at him and was countered by Qingqing back then.
Seeing Madam Leisure, Qingqing glared at her angrily, and her aura gradually seeped out.
Yun Lintian patted her and said gently. “It’s fine. She doesn’t have malicious intent.”
Qingqing snorted cutely and continued to lick her lollipop without moving her gaze elsewhere.
Madam Leisure landed on the ground a few meters away from Yun Lintian and said softly. “You’re really his successor… Can I have a private talk with you?”
Yun Lintian thought briefly and opened his hand. “Please.”
Madam Leisure took a step forward and disappeared from the place, followed by Yun Lintian.
The two of them appeared in a desolate forest a few hundred kilometers from the divine city.
“May I know your true identity?” Yun Lintian asked directly.
Madam Leisure didn’t say anything and took the robe off, revealing a peerless woman with bright yellow pupils. Her beauty could be described as mesmerizing.
“As you already know, I am a true spirit.” She looked at Qingqing and said. “Just like her.”
Yun Lintian frowned slightly and asked. “I can feel strong earth energy from your body. What kind of artifact are you?”
Madam Leisure shook her head and said. “I don’t have an artifact to attach to. More precisely, I am an earth spirit that was born from nature… I was accidentally attached to the Earth and came here.”
“I was severely injured by the space disturbance along the way and was unable to recover for a long period.”
She looked at Yun Lintian and continued. “The Earth Temple’s disciple also arrived here roughly the same period as mine. Because I was too weak back then, I chose to avoid him and allow him to occupy the Earth.”
“Why don’t you use the Earth’s power to treat your injury?” Yun Lintian asked in doubt.
Madam Leisure said softly. “The Earth back then was too powerful. Its power was too tyrannical for me.”
She paused slightly and asked. “That self-proclaimed Boundless Desert Emperor took advantage when the Earth was weakened after thousands of years and sealed it with the Earth Temple’s divine artifact called Earth Sealing Orb. This allowed him to easily absorb the Earth’s power.”
“I want to stop him, but I am powerless against him at that time…Just when I recovered a portion of my strength, you suddenly appeared.”
“I see…” Yun Lintian nodded slowly.
“Ask her if she’s a true spirit of Yaoxi Palace.” Hongyue’s voice suddenly resounded in Yun Lintian’s mind.
Yun Lintian looked at Madam Leisure and asked. “Are you a true spirit of Yaoxi Palace?” .
Madam Leisure’s expression changed slightly as she nodded admittedly. “Yes.”
“No wonder I get a familiar feeling from her,” Hongyue said in an understanding manner.
“Let me talk with her.”
Yun Lintian didn’t hesitate to summon the Gate of Beyond Heaven in front of Madam Leisure, letting Hongyue out.
When Hongyue appeared, Madam Leisure looked at her with an incredible expression. “Princess Hongyue? It really is you? I thought it was just a hallucination back then.”
When she peeked at Yun Lintian in the past, she noticed a powerful divine sense coming out of him. It was a familiar divine sense, but she didn’t think it belonged to Hongyue. After all, Hongyue had been disappearing for ages.
“I should have thought about it….” Madam Leisure looked at Yun Lintian again and immediately realized it was so obvious in the first place.
Yun Lintian was the Beyond Heaven King’s successor, and the relationship between the Beyond Heaven King and Hongyue wasn’t a secret among the top powerhouse in the Divine Realm.
Hongyue asked directly. “What happened to Yaoxi Palace?”
Hearing this, Madam Leisure fell into silence immediately, and her expression wasn’t good…
