Chapter 569: Chapter 74: Ten Days in the Sky (16,000 Da Zhang)_2
Those of high realms would never go there, because the area demarcated by the Military Realm has an entry-grade ceiling.
"It seems that interfering with this matter is no small challenge."
"Too much force won’t work, and too little won’t have any effect."
"Do what we can, and leave the rest to fate." Zhao Xing shook his head, "I’ve done all I can within my abilities, let Lao Liu dream for a few more days."
...
In the far depths of the Southern Desolate, a row of war chariots was making its way across the flat wilderness.
The sky was blue, and Gang Winds raged through the air, a terrifying layer of Qing-grey Gang Wind forming just a hundred meters from the ground.
"Hiss-clang~" Dozens of White Bone Golden Claw Beasts, pulling a line of Xuan Steel prison carts, were rapidly advancing across the wilderness.
Two squads of humans with golden wings and silvery-white hair were carefully observing the surroundings.
They were part of an escort team from the Golden Feather Royal Court, responsible for transporting the captive Great Zhou prisoners behind them.
Whoosh~
Suddenly, a small squadron appeared in front of the team, blocking their path.
"Who goes there?!"
The Golden Feather Clan’s security leader immediately burst out shouting, spreading his wings.
But before he could assume a fighting stance, he was bound by a force and lost consciousness.
The entire team, including the White Bone Golden Claw Beasts pulling the carts, all fell into unconsciousness.
"Click~"
The long door of the prison cart was opened, and a blood-red figure slipped inside.
In one of the single-person compartments, a Sixth-rank Great Zhou General was shackled, with a shoulder bone pierced by an iron hook and his limbs chained.
"Clang~" The door was broken open, and the blood-red figure appeared inside the cell.
The Great Zhou General, bristling with stubble and disheveled hair, did not stir, head hung low as if dead.
On seeing this, the Blood Spirit Venerable fired a red light into the general’s body.
With a struggle, the general’s clothes burst, and the muscles on his stomach writhed, revealing a blurred human face.
The Blood Spirit Venerable cupped his hands and said, "I’ve seen Prince."
"Xue Lingzi." The human face moved slightly. "Now that I am here, it’s time for you to show sincerity."
"Rest assured, Prince," Xue Lingzi said with a smile, "I will take this split soul back to the sect and preserve the True Spirit spark for Prince."
"I am asking about your intentions towards the Ten Suns Cave Heaven," Prince Liang Ji Mingxian said indifferently.
"Everything is proceeding according to plan," Xue Lingzi said, "Should it succeed, we request the Prince to interfere with the operation of the Creation Plate."
"The Creation Plate is held by the royal Fate Officers; how do you know I have that ability?"
Xue Lingzi smiled and said, "With the expansion of the Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion, you were to take full credit. We may have been at a disadvantage in the struggle of heavenly schemes, but we are aware that it was the Prince who was in charge of creation then."
When Prince Liang did not respond, Xue Lingzi added, "In the third year of the Dinxin Calendar, your elder brother secretly appointed you as a Fate Officer."
"In the fifteenth year of the Dingxin Calendar, Prince merged the Fate Palace into the Creation Plate, successfully refining it.
"After bearing the pressure of the magical instrument for a hundred years, enduring day and night, and taking charge of the military and political power of Yingyuan Prefecture, the court finally achieved the unmatched feat of the Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion."
Seeing Prince Liang remain silent, Xue Lingzi continued to instigate, "But as they say, when the cunning rabbit dies, the hound is cooked; when the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden. Suppressing noble families, reforming military ailments, diminishing the feudal system, and the Yin God system. He made the Prince do so much, and yet in the end, the sword still fell upon the Prince’s head."
"In the final year of the Dingxin Calendar, the Creation Plate was forcibly separated from the Prince’s Fate Palace, taken under the joint control of eighty-one Fate Officers of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall, which is like making the Prince go through another hundred years of pain."
"The Prince is benevolent, a rarity in the world; so too is the coldness of your brother."
"Enough!" the human face exclaimed, "I may trade with you, but that does not give you the right to meddle in my family affairs!"
Xue Lingzi, realizing that Prince Liang had not yet made up his mind, hurriedly cupped his hands, "Your Highness, forgive me, I have spoken out of turn. I shall take you back to the sect now to complete the trade."
With that, Xue Lingzi waved his hand, and the chains binding the general snapped apart.
Swish~
A gust of Yin Wind blew through, and the entire escort team, both people and beasts, were scattered to the winds, turned to ash as if they had never existed.
...
On the tenth day of July, Zhao Xing was planning to give up on intervening in the matters of the Ten Suns Cave Heaven.
It seemed as if Liu Tianning had ignored this kind of ’dream revelation’.
He planned to leave the Ten Thousand Skill Palace and keep an eye on Old Chen, Long Xiao, Xia Jing, and the others.
Zhao Xing had rested, but these people were still exploring outside.
Especially Xia Jing, Ji Ziyun, coming from families with significant businesses and fortunes; they already had enough for themselves, but they still sought benefits for their family’s power.
After waking up, Zhao Xing found Liu Tianning outside his courtyard.
He had not paid much attention to it, since Liu Tianning occasionally came to check on his cultivation.
But lately, Liu Tianning seemed different.
"Have you had any dreams recently?"
"What do you mean by that, teacher?" Zhao Xing was startled.
"I’ve been dreaming continuously since ingesting the Dragon Whale’s Heart," Liu Tianning said, "It seems to be revelations about this world, making me feel as if something big is about to happen."
"What revelations did Teacher dream of?"
"Crimson Lake," Liu Tianning considered, "And some other things."
"I’ve dreamed about the Extreme Night Sea several times, but it doesn’t feel like any particular revelation," Zhao Xing shook his head, "Perhaps the Dragon Whale receives the creation of heaven and earth, and the Ten Suns Cave Heaven favors only Teacher. Or perhaps my realm is too low, not as perceptive as Teacher’s Life Soul."
Liu Tianning nodded slightly, "I plan to visit the Crimson Lake; there might be a great opportunity there. Would you like to come along?"
Zhao Xing was about to agree, but at that moment, the seal in the memory palace within his Sea of Consciousness was triggered.
