502: Pressure on Xiandu

As Yang Dian's voice spread throughout the Immortal Capital, an invincible Aura pressed down, covering the entire city. One second ago, the Great Yu Immortal Capital was bustling with activity; one second later, it became like a dead city, eerily quiet.

In an inconspicuous small courtyard in the south of the Immortal Capital.

A young girl held a wolf-hair brush, writing something in a flowing hand on a Talisman.

Hearing the voice from outside the city and the oppressive Aura, she looked up again at the drizzling blood rain falling from the sky. She tapped the table, set up a barrier, and then transmitted a message to the old man who was polishing a statue nearby:

"Master, what's happening outside?"

The old man also looked up in the direction of the voice:

"Blood rain from the sky means disaster."

"Since Great Yu Celestial Emperor attained the Dao, how long has it been since such an ominous weather phenomenon appeared on Canglan Star?"

"Now, the Great Yu Supervision Department, and even Great Yu Celestial Emperor, allow the blood rain to fall. Not only have they not dispersed the blood rain, but they haven't taken any action at all."

"Perhaps something has truly happened to the Great Yu Dynasty, or even Great Yu Celestial Emperor."

"Once those with ulterior motives receive the news, they can't help but jump out to test the waters."

Hearing the old man's conjecture, the young girl's eyes immediately lit up:

"If it's truly as Master says, then can't we also..."

Before the young girl could finish her sentence, the old man glared at her:

"Watch your words!"

"The Great Yu Dynasty is powerful. Even if Great Yu Celestial Emperor met with an accident, it's not something we can covet."

"Joining the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, fighting for the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, and obtaining powerful Cultivation Techniques from them to bring back is what we should be considering."

"But what if the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty falls apart..."

The old man, sensing the young girl's thoughts, stroked his beard and smiled:

"That would be even better."

"Whether it's taking advantage of the chaos, pledging allegiance to a new dynasty, or even finding a way for our world to break free from Canglan Star and regain its freedom, these are all good choices..."

The old man and the young girl's thoughts were also the thoughts of most people.

The Great Yu Immortal Dynasty had invaded thousands of worlds, crushing countless civilizations.

Given that they divided people into various classes and had not done a good job of winning over hearts and minds.

When the Immortal Dynasty faced danger, the Cultivators, whom the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty had classified as ninth-class people, naturally wouldn't harbor thoughts of living and dying with the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty.

Not directly shouting, "The Imperial Star is unstable, the Fiery Planet is high," was already due to the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty's deeply ingrained power.

Of course, those who had been invaded by the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty would have such thoughts, but Yang Dian did not.

After his voice fell, seeing that only prolonged silence answered him, he simply struck out with a palm towards the Great Yu Immortal Palace in the north of the Immortal Capital, which faced south.

In the small courtyard in the south of the city.

The young girl watched as the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gathered behind Yang Dian, transforming into a gigantic hand, hundreds of kilometers wide, that covered the sky. Her eyes immediately widened:

"Master, so big..."

"I feel like he's even stronger than the Martial Celestial Official who, three hundred years ago, slapped our Sect Master to death."

"The Martial Celestial Official, he's like the strongest Celestial Official, right?"

The old man was silent for a moment, then put down his carving knife, took out a pipe, tapped it, and lit the mouthpiece:

"Without true skill, who dares to come to the Immortal Capital?"

"The clash of the strong has nothing to do with us common folk."

"Let's just sit and watch the show."

The young girl looked at her Master with some surprise:

"Master, aren't you afraid that when the city gates catch fire, the fish in the pond will suffer?"

"Such a huge palm coming down, can you withstand it?"

The old man smiled, somewhat carefree, yet also somewhat helpless:

"Withstand? How would I withstand it?"

"If that palm hits us here, your Master at most will have two more bones left than you."

As he spoke, he sighed again:

"But if I can't withstand it, then what?"

He pointed to the shield rising above the Immortal Capital:

"Where do you think we can escape to now?..."

The old man and the young girl watched the show, or rather, waited for death, in the courtyard in the south of the city.

In the Golden Luan Hall of the Celestial Palace, in the north of the Immortal Capital.

The Martial Celestial Official stood outside the Golden Luan Hall, looking at the huge hand slowly descending from the sky, and once again turned his gaze to Celestial Official Yu, who was still startled beside him.

"What did you encounter in the other world?"

"Celestial Official of Stars, Celestial Official Le, and the Commander of the Zhenwu Army's soul tablets shattered."

"The Celestial Emperor is missing."

"What exactly did you encounter!"

Hearing the Martial Celestial Official bring up the old matter again, Celestial Official Yu, whose vital parts were covered only by a few silk ribbons, couldn't help but tremble.

"I'm not sure what those things were..."

Recalling the stars that suddenly appeared in the starry sky, the spatial crack torn open by the stars, and the vast sun that appeared behind the crack, Celestial Official Yu felt her legs go weak.

"Not long ago, I received a message from Celestial Official Le."

"The message said they encountered a great enemy in the other world, and the Celestial Emperor personally led the expedition."

"After receiving the news, I rushed to the other world immediately."

"Then... then..."

"Then I saw countless stars suddenly appear outside the starry sky."

"And a sun that descended upon the earth."

"If I hadn't seen the bad situation and run fast, I would likely have been left in the other world too."

"So..." The Martial Celestial Official's voice was devoid of much emotion:

"The Celestial Emperor might have met with misfortune?"

Celestial Official Yu, gradually recovering, looked at the Martial Celestial Official thoughtfully:

"What do you want to do?"

The Martial Celestial Official looked back at the Golden Luan, high above, then stepped forward and flew towards the huge palm descending from the sky.

"Do what?"

"First, let's have a fight, then we'll talk."
