132: Chapter 132 A Strange Change Begins! Cui Zhaoyue's Horrifying Origins!
Before the voice had even faded, Uncle Fu was seen stepping through the air.
He pinched his hands together. A golden Talisman quickly emerged at his fingertips.
The Talisman transformed into a chain of gold and jade. The chain hung in the air, enclosing the two of them within!
Shen Yi was just about to speak when he saw Pei Lingshu extend her slender, long fingers to cover his mouth. "Don't make a sound!"
Without descending, Uncle Fu was seen lying lazily across the Void Realm.
Soon... a thin chain was seen traveling through the air like a bolt of lightning. The lightning crackled.
An official of the Immortal Dynasty, wearing luxurious dharma robes, appeared silently in mid-air. He looked at Uncle Fu with a calm expression.
"The Tiangui Bloodline... has connected with the Immortal Laws of the imperial court."
"But the Bloodline is unusual."
"Fellow Daoist... the Bloodline blossomed right here."
"Have you... ever seen it?"
Seeing this, Uncle Fu let out a yawn. "Never seen it."
The immortal official frowned slightly, his expression filled with aloofness and nobility. "Fellow Daoist, have you looked carefully?"
"If you withhold information, it is a grave crime punishable by the extermination of one's nine clans."
Uncle Fu sneered. "Oh... trying to scare me, are you?"
"You Loose Cultivator... how incredibly arrogant."
Seeing this, Uncle Fu sneered and said, "You, a lackey of the Li Clan, are quite high and mighty yourself."
"Just a mere eighth-rank immortal official, and you dare to question me?"
Uncle Fu sneered and slowly took out a token from his bosom. Seeing this, the man's expression changed abruptly.
"A Small Flag Officer of the Northern Town Prefecture Office."
"Why are you here?"
Seeing this, Uncle Fu gave a cold laugh. "You want to hear?"
"Are you sure you want to hear?"
The Immortal Dynasty official hurriedly bowed. A dignified Dao Foundation Master actually had cold sweat breaking out on his forehead. He replied in a low voice, "This subordinate was presumptuous..."
However, the Dao Foundation Master gritted his teeth and still added, "But this matter is of great importance. If you, sir, discover any clues, please inform me."
"My Li Clan... will naturally be extremely grateful!"
"There will certainly be a generous reward!"
Uncle Fu waved his hand. "Why do you think I am here?"
"Stop talking your damn nonsense!"
"Get lost..."
"This... very well!"
As the voice faded, the figure of the Immortal Dynasty official also vanished from the sky.
Pei Lingshu took a deep breath... Yet, in her gaze, Shen Yi did not see any anxiety, panic, or fear. Instead, he saw excitement... exhilaration...
Clearly, Pei Lingshu seemed to be thinking the same thing as him?
Pei Lingshu looked at the young girl in the coffin, her eyes flickering with waves of emotion. "Where did you get this thing?"
"Mingshan Ancient Battlefield... there were Panshi Dao Soldiers covering her aura."
Pei Lingshu looked amused. "Panshi Dao Soldiers?"
"That makes sense then..."
She looked at Shen Yi and chuckled. "You fool... some first-grade or even second-grade Dao Soldiers, how would they have the ability to cover up this person's Bloodline?"
"It is the battle technique on her... called 'Covering the Heavens and Blocking the Sun'."
"It can obscure heavenly secrets; divination cannot detect it, and the Bloodline cannot be hidden."
"Except for a few powerful beings who remain neutral, no one can find her."
"Unless she exposes herself voluntarily..."
Pei Lingshu sighed. "You returned just at the right time."
"If you had been a few days later, this 'Covering the Heavens and Blocking the Sun' battle technique would likely have failed."
"By then, let alone you... the entire Qinghe Town would be razed to the ground."
"Even Uncle Fu and I would be hunted down by them!"
Shen Yi had already learned everything through the intelligence probabilities. But he could not show it too obviously. Seeing this situation, he gave a sheepish smile.
"Miss Pei... isn't your family a top-tier influential clan?"
"Are you still afraid of that... Li Clan?"
Pei Lingshu sighed slightly and said, "Top-tier influential clans still have some gap compared to the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans."
"Their foundation is simply too profound... Although my Pei Clan has flourished for a dynasty and holds fierce power, our foundation is far inferior."
"My father..." Speaking of this, Pei Lingshu paused, then flicked Shen Yi on the forehead. "Very good... are you trying to pry information out of me?"
Shen Yi coughed. "What prying... I'm just curious, just curious!"
Pei Lingshu pouted. "Curiosity is useless... It's too early for you to be involved in these things."
"But looking at you, I'm afraid you already knew this girl's origins were extraordinary?"
"Tell me... what do you want to do by bringing this hot potato back?"
Seeing this, Shen Yi did not act coy and spread his hands. "Miss Pei also knows... the imperial court places too much importance on family background."
"For someone like me, wanting to advance is extremely difficult..."
"This Cui Zhaoyue is a descendant of the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans. If I can climb up to such a high branch."
"It will be of great help to my future prospects!"
Upon hearing this, Pei Lingshu looked appreciative. "Although I know you are a gambler, I didn't expect your gambling nature to be so immense!"
"The Zhaojun Li Clan controls the current Sanchuan Sand Sea..."
"This Cui Clan is also incomparably powerful..."
"Compared to them, you don't even count as an ant. And you dare to scheme against their family status?"
Shen Yi shrugged. "Those big shots won't be eyeing me for the time being."
"Besides, isn't there still Miss Pei to mediate?"
Shen Yi smiled slightly, looking wise. "Besides... when you saw this person, Miss Pei, you were also very excited, weren't you?"
Pei Lingshu chuckled. "Yes... very excited."
"Cui Zhaoyue, seventh on the Jing Kingdom imperial court's Hidden Dragon Ranking."
"Top five in the overall ranking of Aptitude and talent among the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans."
"In the three thousand years of the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans, she is the only female clan head with the opportunity to become the master of the Five Surnames and Seven Great Clans."
"Back then, the Sanchuan Sand Sea was the 'gilding stone' the Cui Clan gave to Cui Zhaoyue. But I don't know why... she went missing."
"Even now, the Cui Clan is searching the whole world, looking for her like mad."
Shen Yi said with a smile. "Such a big name... I wonder what rank Miss Pei is?"
"I imagine it shouldn't be low, right?"
"Probably outside the top three thousand."
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment... but Pei Lingshu said indifferently, "However, my Pei Clan has a technique that allows for infinite progress. Since I can't compare from birth, I can only be the early bird."
Pei Lingshu seemed unwilling to say more and spoke slowly to Uncle Fu. "Uncle Fu... this thing needs you to escort it. Go to Pingyang Prefecture, take my token, and deliver it to Father."
"Yes..."
The two watched Uncle Fu speed away, and Pei Lingshu smiled at Shen Yi. "Next... it will be very interesting. It will also be very crazy..."
"Can you handle it?"
"I don't know... but this tianyuan tongbao of mine. It is quite graceful. What does Miss Pei think?"
