408: Peeping into the secrets

But now, the successive events made Ye Xuan realize that what he had experienced before was merely an appetizer.

He hasn't even stepped into the Immortal Realm yet, but this already involves secrets from ancient times.

When he truly steps into the Immortal Realm, perhaps at that moment, even greater trouble will await him.

“This…is it really that dangerous?”

The Ouyang Family Head gasped upon hearing this.

He hadn't expected things to be so thorny, knowing that Ye Xuan's strength far surpassed his own.

Moreover, ever since Ye Xuan embarked on his path, he had walked an invincible road, and countless enemies had died by his hand.

Yet, for him to speak such words now, it was clear that the power of this so-called Immortal Hall was indeed not to be underestimated.

“It’s just a precaution, after all, I can indeed protect you all, but I still have important matters to attend to and cannot stay long. This is also a form of insurance.”

Ye Xuan said calmly.

“Alright, in that case, after you leave, we will seal off the Ouyang Family until you return before unsealing it again.”

“You will surely encounter danger on this trip to Eternal Day Valley. My Ouyang Family has nothing to offer you, except for this Golden Crow Token.”

“This Golden Crow Token was obtained by my ancestor. At that time, the Golden Crow Great Emperor had a good relationship with my ancestor and once said that any descendant who comes with the Golden Crow Token can have one wish granted.”

“That Purple Moon is extremely strange. With this Golden Crow Token, you can at least get help from the Golden Crow Clan.”

The Ouyang Family Head handed Ye Xuan a token made from a golden feather.

“You should keep this thing. If the Immortal Hall launches a full-scale attack, the help of the Golden Crow Clan is obviously more important to you.”

Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment but still refused the Ouyang Family Head.

“No, ever since you married Ouyang Lan and Hong Ling, although the Ouyang Family still appears to be a family on the surface, it has actually been bound to the Ye Family. If something happens to the Ye Family, the Immortal Hall will still not spare us.”

“Therefore, giving this to you is much better than keeping it with us.”

The Ouyang Family Head insisted.

“Alright, in that case, I won’t decline.”

Ye Xuan nodded.

Then, after instructing the Ouyang Family Head on a few matters, he left the Ouyang Family.

He headed to the Celestial Mystery Deduction Hall.

… … … …

Outside the Celestial Mystery Deduction Hall, clouds and mist swirled, making the place appear like an Immortal Realm, extremely beautiful.

Ye Xuan arrived by treading on air, only to find the hall doors tightly shut, with a yellowed talisman pasted on them, bearing the four large characters: “Closed for Guests.”

Clearly, the Celestial Mystery Deduction Hall had also sensed something and was no longer receiving guests.

“Senior, Ye Xuan requests an audience.”

As soon as his voice fell, the talisman ignited without wind, and the hall doors creaked open.

Inside the hall, it was dim, with only an ancient bronze lamp in the center flickering with a faint blue flame.

All the surrounding guards and maidservants had disappeared.

The entire hall was empty, completely different from how it was when he last visited.

“Come in.”

The Sloppy Daoist's voice came from the darkness: “This old Daoist has been waiting for you for a long time.”

Ye Xuan stepped into the hall, seeing the Daoist sitting cross-legged on a futon, with a broken Bagua plate suspended before him.

Unlike usual, the Daoist had changed into a clean Daoist robe today, but there was a hint of solemnity between his brows.

It was worth mentioning that his hair was still messy, looking like a bird's nest, without any semblance of an enlightened master.

He looked just like an ordinary sloppy old man one might see in the market.

But in reality, his power was extremely formidable, possessing the power of Celestial Mystery, not to be underestimated.

“Senior, why have you sent everyone in this hall away? Does the Celestial Mystery Deduction Hall not plan to open anymore in the future?”

Ye Xuan asked with a smile.

“They have naturally gone to seek their own Opportunity and destiny.”

The Daoist sighed.

“It is you… This old Daoist should have seen it back then, that your fate was extraordinary. I originally thought this was just a hurdle on your path to the Supreme, but I never expected you to be so unusual.”

He raised his hand and lightly tapped the Bagua plate, and instantly, myriad constellations appeared within the plate.

“Tai Hao's Reincarnation, with Human Race Luck bestowed upon him, and now entangled in the Immortal Hall's dispute.”

“I have to say, your destiny has become intertwined, making it increasingly difficult for me to see clearly. Moreover, some people who originally followed you with clear destinies have now become fragmented. Their future may have already been changed by you.”

“Since Senior already knows, can you deduce something for me?”

Ye Xuan went straight to the point.

“Is Fairy Purple Moon truly Nv Xi's Reincarnation?”

The Sloppy Daoist's expression suddenly changed upon hearing this: “You’ve seen her?”

Without waiting for an answer, he suddenly bit his fingertip and dripped blood onto the Bagua plate.

The blood snaked across the plate, gradually forming a crescent moon pattern, identical to the mark on Purple Moon's forehead!

“Indeed…”

The Daoist's voice trembled.

“She has Awakened.”

“What does that mean?”

Ye Xuan took a step forward.

“Nv Xi indeed split her Divine Soul in two to save Tai Hao back then.”

The Daoist's fingers trembled slightly.

“But that Purple Moon is merely…”

The blood moon in the Bagua plate suddenly split into two halves, one as pure as snow, the other as black as ink.

This was a warning from Heaven to the Sloppy Daoist, telling him not to continue speaking.

If he continued, he would violate Celestial Mystery, and his death would be incredibly tragic at that time.

“That Purple Moon is…”

“Enough, don’t continue speaking.”

Ye Xuan interrupted the Sloppy Daoist's words.

Since this was Celestial Mystery and could not be calculated, Ye Xuan certainly wouldn't cause the Sloppy Daoist to perish because of it.

The Daoist shook his head.

“Listen to me, what was separated out was not Purple Moon, but a dark soul contaminated by Devilish Qi, which should have dissipated but was captured by the Chaos Demon God and became his pawn to infiltrate the Human Race.”

He looked directly at Ye Xuan.

“The current Purple Moon is not entirely Nv Xi, but rather…”

“Pfft.”

Before the Sloppy Daoist could finish his words, he violently spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

His entire aura became weak, clearly, his words had already violated Celestial Mystery.

If he continued, he would perish sooner or later.

However, before Ye Xuan could remind the Sloppy Daoist, he continued to speak.

“What Purple Moon wants you to do, you cannot do, otherwise it will…”

His words abruptly stopped, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood. The blood moon pattern on the Bagua plate actually materialized, instantly piercing through his chest!

“Senior!”

Ye Xuan quickly supported him.

“Hurry… leave…”

The Daoist clutched Ye Xuan's hand tightly.

“She is… prying into Celestial Mystery…”

The hall roof suddenly exploded, and a purple moonlight shot straight down. In the moonlight, Purple Moon's voice faintly drifted: “Big Brother Tai Hao, it’s not good to eavesdrop on others’ secrets.”
