Chapter 3408: Situ Zhu Qing, The Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven
“Y-you’re the true disciple of Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven?!” Feng Jian Xue who was in excruciating pain was shocked by this revelation. She roared in pain and anger, “Although Feng Qing Yang is stronger than my mother, do you know who my father is? My father is…”
Before Feng Jian Xue finished her words, her soul was destroyed by Mo He.
Since Mo He was a t.i.tled Celestial Emperor who specialized in soul attacks, it was indescribably easy for him to destroy the soul of Feng Jian Xue who was a mere Ten Directions Celestial Lord. If he did not have to consider Mu Yi Yi’s soul, it would have been even easier for him to destroy Feng Jian Xue’s soul.
“It’s done.”
Mu Yi Yi’s flas.h.i.+ng eyes suddenly dimmed before it regained a little bit of life.
“Huh? W-who are you?” Mu Yi Yi asked as she looked at Duan Ling Tian and the others fearfully. Her behavior was like that of a three-year-old child now.
Although Duan Ling Tian had prepared himself for the worst, his heart still sank when he saw Mu Yi Yi acting in such a manner. She was no longer the elegant Mu Yi Yi of the past.
“Elder Huo, can you confirm that the woman’s soul has been destroyed?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
“Yes. It’s been destroyed.” Elder Huo nodded.
Duan Ling Tian inhaled deeply before he said to Feng Tian Wu who was in his Little World, “Tian Wu, I’m afraid I’ll have to entrust Junior Sister Mu Yi Yi to you for now. She will need your care and guidance during this time.”
Mu Yi Yi who was like a child now would definitely need guidance. Feng Tian Wu was undoubtedly the best candidate to look after her since the two women had a close relations.h.i.+p.
Feng Tian Wu suppressed the heaviness she felt in her heart and said, “Brother Duan, I’ll take care of her.”
After Mu Yi Yi entered his Little World, Duan Ling Tian looked at Mo He and said, “Senior Mo He, thank you for your help!”
“Young Master, you’re being too courteous. It’s an honor to serve you,” Mo He said with a smile.
“Senior Mo He, remember to keep this matter to yourself.” Duan Ling Tian could not help but remind Mo He when he recalled Feng Jian Xue’s unfinished words. If it was possible, it was best if the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven remained unaware. Under normal circ.u.mstances, it would be indeed difficult for the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven. After all, all she knew about Duan Ling Tian was his name. It would be like searching for a needle in the ocean for her to look for Duan Ling Tian in all the Devata Realms.
“Young Master, rest a.s.sured. I’ll keep this to myself,” Mo He hastily replied. He knew if Feng Jian Xue was truly the daughter of the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Sect, his life would be in danger as well even if Duan Ling Tian had promised to shoulder the consequences. After all, he was the one who dealt the killing blow. Moreover, he was just an ordinary t.i.tled Celestial Emperor in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. For all these reasons, he was determined not to tell a single soul about this matter and pretend it never happened.
As though he could read Mo He’s thoughts, Duan Ling Tian said, “Don’t worry. If news of this spreads, I’ll say I’m the one who destroyed her soul.”
Upon hearing these words, Mo He sighed in relief inwardly.
After Mo He left, Duan Ling Tian looked at Elder Huo. “Elder Huo, based on her words, it seems like her father is not a simple person. Do you know who her father is?”
“I have no idea.” Elder Huo shook his head. Since he did not pay attention to gossip, he had no idea at all. “I’ll ask around, but now isn’t the time to do so…”
“No, there’s no need to ask around at all,” Duan Ling Tian said hastily, “It’ll only allow the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven to find us faster. Since master hasn’t returned, we’d be at a disadvantage if she comes looking for us…”
“You think she’ll come looking for us?” Elder Huo was stunned. Then, he shook his head as he laughed. “She won’t have the guts to do such a thing unless she loves her daughter to the point where she doesn’t mind everyone and everything she holds dear falling into ruins. Don’t forget that she still has another daughter…”
Based on Elder Huo’s words, he seemed confident that the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River did not have the support of a stronger force.
…
In the Luo River Heaven’s Luo River Sect…
A huge commotion broke out after Mu Yi Yi was taken away.
Feng Jian Yu, the Saint Girl of the sect and the person in charge, left with a group of powerhouses to search for Mu Yi Yi. However, their search yielded no results.
‘Where did Duan Ling Tian bring little sister?’ Feng Jian Yu, the Saint Girl of the Luo River Sect, was dressed in a silver robe. She looked holy and elegant as a white energy flashed around her.
At the same time, two old women trailed behind her. One of them wore a white long loose robe while the other was dressed in a black long loose robe. Their faces were both expressionless.
Suddenly, Feng Jian Yu’s expression changed drastically; she felt her heart sink. She had casually checked her Spatial Ring and discovered one of the two Soul Pearls that was intact 15 minutes ago had shattered.
‘Little sister!’
Apart from Feng Jian Yu and her mother, only a few trustworthy people knew of Feng Jian Xue’s existence.
‘Little Sister died, but Mu Yi Yi’s Soul Pearl is still intact. Did Mu Yi Yi’s senior brother discover his junior sister was possessed so he killed little sister to help Mu Yi Yi regain control of her body?’ Feng Jian Yu thought to herself as her eyes shone coldly and her body emitted a terrifying killing intent.
The two old women’s expressions changed as well. Although they were t.i.tled Celestial Emperors in the Luo River Sect, they were unaware that Feng Jian Yu had a younger twin sister.
“Did something happen to Miss Yi Yi?”
“Elders, continue the search for Mu Yi Yi… I need to return to the sect to speak to my mother!” Feng Jian Yu said. Without waiting for the two old women’s reply, she vanished into thin air after she finished speaking.
…
The Heavenly Palace of the Luo River Heaven was naturally the Luo River Sect’s estate.
At this moment, Feng Jian Yu rushed into a forbidden area in the sect where those who entered without permission would be killed instantly. She cried out, “Mother!”
Situ Zhu Qing, the Heavenly Emperor of the Luo River Heaven, was in the middle of cultivation when Feng Jian Yu appeared. Upon sensing the urgency in her daughter’s voice, she emerged from a huge courtyard that was built on a vast stone platform.
“Yu’er, what’s wrong? Why are you so anxious?” Situ Zhu Qing was familiar with Feng Jian Yu’s temperament. Her daughter was always calm, and it was rare for her to lose control of her emotions. For this reason, she knew something must have happened for her daughter to come looking for her with such urgency.
“Mother!” Feng Jian Yu fell to her knees and lowered her head as she said, “Please punish me!”
“What happened?!” Situ Zhu Qing frowned.
“Mother, I failed to take care of little sister and deserve to be punished!” Feng Jian Yu said as her body trembled.
Situ Zhu Qing’s expression changed drastically upon hearing these words. She opened her Spatial Ring and discovered her youngest daughter’s Soul Pearl had shattered.
“No! Impossible!” Situ Zhuqing widened her eyes in disbelief. Although she had tried her best to stay calm, she was so overwhelmed by her emotions that her Celestial Origin Energy began to surge into the surroundings.
Feng Jian Yu hurriedly mobilized her Celestial Origin Energy to protect herself.
However, just as quickly as it started, Situ Zhu Qing’s Celestial Origin Energy vanished without a trace. She composed herself and asked tonelessly, “What happened? How did Xue’er die? Didn’t she possess Mu Yi Yi’s body? Didn’t I tell you to keep an eye on her and to never let her leave the Luo River Sect?” Her voice turned cold at the end of the words; she clearly blamed Feng Jian Yu. At the same time, killing intent shone in her eyes.
