95: The Great Shang Dynasty!
Listening to Shen Xuansheng’s praise, the smile on Bei Mingxue’s face grew even brighter, and her earlobes even showed a hint of blush: “Actually, I'm not as good as you say.”
Bei Mingxue lowered her head and said.
Xue Wujian and Sima Wangquan watched this scene, their mouths twitching.
Sima Wangquan looked at Shen Xuansheng with admiration, while Xue Wujian looked with suspicion. Xue Wujian didn't understand the meaning of these words, but she absolutely believed that Shen Xuansheng definitely wasn't genuinely infatuated.
Because she had interacted with Shen Xuansheng, and Xue Wujian was not conceited—even if her looks weren't superior to Bei Mingxue's, they were not far apart—it was impossible for Shen Xuansheng to be acting this way due to mere beauty.
Therefore, Xue Wujian was certain that Shen Xuansheng definitely had other motives.
“This Heavenly Palace appeared in the Northern Darkness Region, and Miss Xue, you are a member of the Northern Darkness Clan. How much do you know about this Heavenly Palace?” Shen Xuansheng asked.
Stealing someone's Dao Body Origin Essence isn't ideal, after all. The strength of the Beiming Family is comparable to a Great Sect. It’s best not to offend them if possible. After all, he wouldn't stay in the Eastern Domain forever. If he offended them and left the Eastern Domain, what if the Beiming Family tried to kill him?
How could he extract the Origin Essence of Bei Mingxue's Dao Body without offending Bei Mingxue?
This was a matter of skill.
Shen Xuansheng intended to study this now.
After all, sometimes you could sell someone out, and they might even help you count the money.
This was a principle.
“Shen Xuansheng, you sound like a stranger when you call me ‘Miss Xue’,” Bei Mingxue lifted her head and said, looking toward Xue Wujian: “There’s also Miss Xue Wujian here.”
“Senior Brother Shen, if you don't mind, just call me by my name, or you can call me Xue'er. That's what my Family calls me.”
Sima Wangquan shot a resentful look at Shen Xuansheng. Damn it, was this the benefit of having a good reputation?
Bei Mingxue was no ordinary person!
“Since Miss Xue thinks highly of me, I shall be presumptuous then.” Shen Xuansheng said, radiating righteousness: “Bei Mingxue, I am curious, who is the Revered Master of this Heavenly Palace?”
Bei Mingxue composed herself and slowly said: “This Heavenly Palace is the Heavenly Palace of the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty from the Ancient Era.”
“During the Ancient Era, the Heavenly Dao shattered, order collapsed, and the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty also perished within it.”
“Time has passed, and now only this Heavenly Palace remains of the Great Shang Celestial Dynasty.”
“Shen Xuansheng, once this Heavenly Palace truly opens, anyone whose cultivation surpasses the Golden Immortal Realm will have their cultivation suppressed to the Golden Immortal Realm by the Heavenly Palace Great Array. Your cultivation is at the True Immortal Realm, so if you enter, you must be extremely careful.” Bei Mingxue said this, yet her gaze shifted toward Xue Wujian.
Xue Wujian noticed Bei Mingxue's thoughts, her eyelid twitched, and she looked speechlessly at Bei Mingxue. Are you still worried about him?
Shen Xuansheng is already an Immortal now. He wasn't an Immortal when he destroyed the Wuji Sect!
You might not even be his match.
“In that case, I understand!”
“Thank you for informing me!”
Shen Xuansheng said sincerely.
Sima Wangquan, standing nearby, looked at Shen Xuansheng incredulously, as if asking him, what are you doing?
Didn't I tell you this already?
Damn!
“It's nothing!”
Bei Mingxue said magnanimously: “If you encounter danger inside, you can crush my Jade Token, and I will rush over immediately.”
Bei Mingxue flicked the Jade Token, which landed in Shen Xuansheng's hand, and said.
Shen Xuansheng looked at the Jade Token in his hand, momentarily wondering if Bei Mingxue was setting a trap for him to kill him.
“Thank you!” Shen Xuansheng carefully put away the Jade Token, as if afraid it might drop.
Xue Wujian: “...!”
Seeing this, Bei Mingxue's eyes were filled with smiles.
As for why she did this?
How could a Disciple of a major Family be so kind-hearted?
It was all because of what Bei Mingxue's Father had said when she came here.
“Xue'er, this trip to the Heavenly Palace will surely attract Prodigies from all regions. However, with Supreme Treasures at stake, no one can be trusted—except for one person.”
“Jie Sheng Sect Eldest Senior Brother, Shen Xuansheng!”
“Your father has investigated this person. For hundreds of years, he has performed acts of Benevolence and Righteousness, which cannot be faked. Although most of those he helped were Jiesheng Sect Disciples, there were also people he didn't know. Your father also investigated those people he helped.”
“None of them had any relationship with Shen Xuansheng. Furthermore, after Shen Xuansheng helped them, he turned and left, never interacting with them again.”
“Such a person is worth befriending!”
“Once you get to know him, if you encounter danger inside or need assistance, he will definitely help you.”
If Shen Xuansheng knew this.
He could only say: A Gentleman judges actions, not intentions!
Everything I have done, if spoken of casually, represents unparalleled Benevolence and Righteousness!
Therefore.
That's why the conversation between Bei Mingxue and Shen Xuansheng happened.
What Shen Xuansheng did seemed naive to all Cultivators, yet they wouldn't criticize him; they would only admire him. Why?
He has the qualification!
What kind of status allows him to bring the Sect-Suppressing Magic Treasure every time he goes somewhere?
No one present had such status within their own Power Structure.
Carrying a Heavy Treasure and saving others—who would dare to offend such a person?
Who dares to offend him?
What if they need saving later? Others might not save them, but they can trust Shen Xuansheng once!
It was that simple!
Because benefits might fall upon them at any moment. The result was that they would only speak highly of Shen Xuansheng. Only by making Shen Xuansheng hear their voice would they gain a few more chances of survival when facing danger.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Heavenly Palace opened accordingly. Above the Sky Dome, following a cry, the Ethereal Qi of the Heavenly Palace condensed into a Profound Bird, knocking open the gates of the Heavenly Palace!
“Shen Xuansheng, how about we go together?” Bei Mingxue invited.
Shen Xuansheng shook his head: “You go ahead. Opportunity is dictated by Heaven; I dare not force it. I only came here to broaden my horizons.”
Bei Mingxue nodded, taking her Family Disciples and stepping into the Heavenly Palace gates.
As the people present left one by one.
Finally, only Xue Wujian and others remained.
“Shen Xuansheng, what exactly are you planning to do?” Xue Wujian asked.
Shen Xuansheng looked at Xue Wujian: “What else can one do when coming to the Heavenly Palace?”
“Try my luck!”
Xue Wujian glared deeply: “You better be.”
Then, she led the Snow God Palace Disciples into the Heavenly Palace.
Sima Wangquan was also eager to try at this moment. Shen Xuansheng patted his shoulder and said: “Sima, I know you have a mission. You go first; don't worry about me.”
Sima Wangquan nodded gratefully: “When I'm done, I'll come help you!”
“Two innate supreme treasures. If we combine our strength, seizing one won't be a problem!” Sima Wangquan said.
Shen Xuansheng nodded: “Good!”
Sima Wangquan also stepped into the Heavenly Palace and disappeared.
Shen Xuansheng watched as everyone entered, a smile appearing on his face: “A Heavenly Palace like this couldn't be more suitable than falling into the hands of my Great Qin Dynasty.”
“Revered Master, assist me!”
Shen Xuansheng let out a low shout.
“Mhm.”
“I will use the Heavenly Palace's aura to seal off the surrounding Heaven and Earth for three breaths. Be quick.”
In an instant.
Shen Xuansheng felt that the Heavenly Palace was completely isolated from the Divine Continent Realm.
“taixu cauldron!”
“Appear!”
Shen Xuansheng summoned the taixu cauldron. He saw the taixu cauldron instantly enlarge and plunge straight into the ground beneath the Heavenly Palace.
At the same time, the sealing isolation disappeared.
Shen Xuansheng looked at the ground beneath the Heavenly Palace, stepped into the Heavenly Palace, and vanished.
“innate supreme treasures.”
“Dragon Veins, I want them all!”
