Chapter 2296 - Ninth Princess’ Choice
The Sovereign's Ascension
Seeing Ji Zixiâs passionate invitation, Last Sky Great Saint smiled, âDonât be so straightforward. People will think youâre trying to kidnap the Radiant Sword Saintâs disciple. If that happens, Iâm afraid the Azure River Sword Saint will have an opinion about it.â
Compared to Ji Zixiâs innocence, the Last Sky Great Saint was more experienced and brushed through it with a smile.
âHaha, thatâs too exaggerated.â Ye Guhan smiled, âSince the Last Sky Great Saint has invited my junior brother, he can just directly head to the Divine Phoenix Mountain instead of returning to the Heavenly Dao Sect.â
Lin Yun already had such plans and took out the Divine Blood Fruit before giving it to Ye Guhan. He said, âIâll have to trouble Senior Brother to give this to my master.â
Ye Guhan was stunned and smiled, âIt looks like the Dragon Origin is fortunate. This Divine Blood Fruit can even strengthen his cultivation, as well as extend his lifespan. Alright, hand it to me.â
Everyone was shocked as they watched the Divine Blood Fruit being handed over so easily.
âHoly shit, I didnât expect Lin Yun to also obtain the Divine Blood Fruit as well as the divine flame fragment.â
âFlower Burial is shocking.â
âHaha! His name will spread throughout the Kunlun Realm after today!â
âYou should address him as Flower Burial Sword Saint now. Even those from the Divine Phoenix Mountain call him that.â
âHahaha! I still canât get used to it, since heâs too young. Who can imagine that heâs not even thirty?â Everyone looked at Lin Yun with shock.
Ji Zixi had joy on her face as moved to invite Li Feibai as a guest to the Divine Phoenix Mountain. She held onto Li Feibaiâs hand and said, âBig Sister Bai, why donât you come as well?â
âYoung Master Li, are you willing to visit the Divine Phoenix Mountain?â The Last Sky Great Saint invited.
âI donât mind. But I came to the Heavenly Void for a mission, so I have to return to report the results of my mission,â Li Feibai smiled.
The Last Sky Great Saint asked, âIs it because of the Demonspirit Clan?â
Li Feibai didnât hide it from everyone and turned to the God Burial Mountain Range. She said, âThe Southern Emperor had strengthened the seal three thousand years ago, but the seal has become weak now. Itâs almost time for them to break out even if we manage to stop them.â
The Last Sky Great Saint said, âThe Heavenly Path is broken, so thereâs nothing much they can do.â
âDonât be so sure about that. The situation in the Heavenly Void isnât optimistic, according to what I saw. But thereâs no need to be anxious about it because the Kunlun Realm isnât the same as it was three thousand years ago.â Li Feibai looked at Lin Yun, and said, âThree thousand years ago, the Nine Emperors appeared and calmed the chaos. Three thousand years later, there will be heroes who stand out.â
Lin Yun awkwardly smiled, âI never expected that youâd have an objective in the Heavenly Void. But youâre right. According to what I know, the God Burial Mountain Range has more than one Heavenly Void. The Demonspirit Clan has been preparing for many years.â
âThere are more things that you canât imagine. Iâll be taking my leave,â Li Feibai smiled, cupping her fists together. She was the descendant of the Eight Imperial Clans, but she had stayed behind because she was concerned about Lin Yunâs safety. Now that everything had ended with the three holy lands departure, she had nothing to worry about.
âTake care of yourself. Iâll come find you when Iâm free,â Lin Yun yelled, looking at Li Feibaiâs back figure. After all, they fought together and had each otherâs back to one another. Thatâs why Lin Yun naturally cherished his friendship with Li Feibai.
âAlright,â Li Feibai waved her hand as a form of reply.
âSenior Brother, Last Sky Great Saint, you guys talk while I go and see that⦠Senior. Iâll be right back.â Lin Yun pointed at Lilâ Purple and flew over.
Ye Guhan held onto his chin, and muttered, âBrother Last Sky, do you know about this⦠Divine Phoenix Clanâs Supreme Heavenly Slaughter Empress of Four Seas, Eight Barrens, 36 Heavens, and 72 Earths?â
When the Astral River Saint Sovereign and Jade Lotus Saint Sovereign heard that, their faces changed as they hesitated.
The Last Sky Great Saint had no change on his face, but smiled, â The Kunlun Realm has four seas, the eight barrens should be referring to the eight barren continents, the 36 Heavens, and 72 Earths were controlled by the Eight Imperial Clans. But itâs weird if youâre asking if thereâs anyone who can rule them.â
âStop beating around the bush. Have you heard of her before?â Ye Guhan smiled.
The Last Sky Great Saint bitterly said, âI have, but itâs a secret of my Divine Phoenix Mountain, and I canât tell you much about it. This is too sudden, and this friend of the Flower Burial Sword Saint must be talking about it casually. It canât be real.â
Ye Guhan turned his head over and felt it was unreal, too. Not to mention that the other party could barely fend off the Thousand Seal Great Saint, or Lin Yun wouldnât have asked him for help.
When Lin Yun was halfway over, the three pillars of light gradually dissipated, and he soon found Lilâ Purple on a mountain. It had been some time since they last met, and Lilâ Purple had grown up a lot, caressing Lilâ Redâs head.
Lilâ Red had its eyes closed, looking comfortable. Suddenly, it sensed something, jumped down from Lilâ Purpleâs embrace, and ran towards Lin Yun.
With a smile, Lin Yun hugged Lilâ Red, âYouâve gotten heavy.â
Lilâ Red was fatter than before, looking like a fat cat.
âYou scumbag. I risked my life to save you, but you only come now. Were you captivated by the Divine Phoenix Mouintainâs little princess? Donât forget that your wife is down below,â Lilâ Purple tugged her arms together and said unhappily.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lin Yun handed Lilâ Red back, and frowned, âHow will Ziyao come up now that youâre gone?â
âI didnât want to either. But Su Ziyao feared that you might be in danger. She had already subdued the hand. So she asked me to quickly come out,â Lilâ Purple said.
âShe has subdued the hand?â Lin Yun asked.
âYeah, but it will take some time for her to refine itâ¦â Lilâ Purple sighed. âYouâre really lucky because she has given up on the Blood Word Battalion to refine the hand. She will probably be in trouble when she goes back.â
Lin Yunâs heart sank because he knew that Su Ziyao had chosen him over the Divine Dragon Empire. He said, âI will stand by her side no matter what happens.â
âAlright, letâs not talk about that. Have you promised the Divine Phoenix Mountain to visit them?â Lilâ Purple changed the topic. She knew Lin Yun planned to go to the Divine Phoenix Mountain to seek help for the Sword Sect. The Phoenix Heart Song was an investment that he made back then.
âI did. But Iâm unsure what they want or if they will agree to it.â Lin Yun was pretty optimistic about it. He had a good relationship with Ji Zixi, and the Divine Phoenix Mountain tried to protect him earlier. But they would have to consider taking the risk and helping the Radiant Sword Saint in his tribulation, offending Tian Xuanzi in the process.
Lilâ Purple sighed, âYouâre too righteous, always thinking for others. You think for others, but who thinks for you? You should grasp a hold of that little princess. Isnât she one of the three beauties of the Kunlun Realm? Just win her heart! Donât forget the divine flame fragment. Didnât they want it? Donât give it to them yet; only give it to them after they agree.â
After Lilâ Purple said that, she reached her hand out. Seeing this, Lin Yun couldnât help smiling as he pinched Lilâ Purpleâs face, saying, âSince youâre so smart, who have you grasped so far?â
âYou only know how to bully me,â Lilâ Purple said unhappily.
âThatâs right,â Lin Yun smiled. The two played around as they returned. Along the way, Lin Yun shared his harvest in the Heavenly Void with Lilâ Red. The latter had also received an opportunity in the Fallen God Valley, relying on the Divine Mulberry Tree to reach the Saint Realm.
âI know what you mean, but getting an immortal holy land to take the risk without giving them enough benefits is unrealistic,â Lin Yun said. âAs for the divine flame fragment, I didnât think much about it and already gave it to Ji Zixi.â
âDonât worry. Iâll help you deal with them,â Lilâ Purple boasted.
âCarry on boasting.â Lin Yun knocked on Lilâ Purpleâs head with a smile. She looked pretty adorable when she was boasting.
âDonât forget who taught you the Phoenix Heart Song,â Lilâ Purple said.
âYeah, I believe you,â Lin Yun said, but he didnât treat it seriously. After all, Lilâ Purple was nearly in danger because of what she did earlier and had to rely on Ye Guhan to resolve the issue. Otherwise, she would have suffered if she continued fighting the Thousand Seal Great Saint. At the time, the three Sovereign Divine Runes couldnât have lasted for much longer. Thinking about it, he smiled, âSpeaking of which, was the Ming Cultâs ancestor really your disciple?â
âI donât know. I donât have any impression of him, so heâs probably a lackey. I have a high requirement for a disciple,â Lilâ Purple said unhappily.
Lin Yun merely smiled and took it as a joke.
âBut I do have some impression about the Divine Phoenix Mountain. Iâm a phoenix, and I can easily deal with them,â Lilâ Purple said seriously.
âYeah, I believe you,â Lin Yun smiled. Right then, two streaks of light flew over. They were Drifting Goblet and Bai Lixuan.
Lilâ Purple said, âDonât worry. Call them over.â
âGreetings, Senior.â Bai Lixuan cupped his fists together in Lilâ Purpleâs direction.
Drifting Goblet was rather casual as he gave a wink to Lin Yun. He asked, âFlower Burial Sword Saint, do you have wine?â
âI donât have any this time,â Lin Yun smiled.
âThatâs a pity.â Drifting Goblet smiled as he turned to look at Lilâ Purple. He asked, âSenior, you said that the Ninth Princess has something to tell us. Can we know about it now?â
Lilâ Purple said, âThe Ninth Princess said not to wait for her. She wonât return to the Blood Word Battalion this time and will bear the consequences.â
Bai Lixuanâs face changed when he heard that. Even the Drifting Gobletâs face became grave with his smile disappearing.
