Of course, they had to go and take a look.
In spite of this, the two elders were feeling anxious as well.
"At this delicate juncture when the army has set off to conquer Ziyou and lay the foundations of our ambitions … the Residence of Nine Supremes has suddenly undergone such a change. Is it a curse or a blessing, a golden opportunity or a crisis? Why?"
His Majesty spoke as they walked out.
His words sounded like he was talking to himself.
The two elders knew that there was no need for them to answer.
"If such a commotion is caused by Supreme Cloud … if Supreme Cloud actually possesses such power … doesn't that mean that he has the power of an immortal in the truest sense? On the other hand, if such a commotion is caused by the heretics who don't care about the will of heaven, doesn't it mean that the Residence of Nine Supremes is facing an unprecedented test? "
His Majesty murmured, "Regardless of which, it all points to the same thing. The so-called secular imperial power … is something that Supreme Cloud, or a true almighty … can destroy with a raise of his hand?"
This sentence was rather sensitive.
Qiu Jianhan's expression was equally conflicted as he said slowly, "The secular imperial power … the so-called power to rule the world … has never been in Supreme Cloud's eyes. Isn't this something we all know?"
This was the truth. The Nine Supremes had long been a living legend in the hearts of Yutang's subjects and people; their prestige had long surpassed the imperial power. It was just that the Emperor of Yutang knew the true meaning of the Nine Supremes' establishment, so he did not mind it at all!
"This throne … has never been in the Nine Supremes' eyes …" His Majesty mused, a thought suddenly rising in his mind.
"Let us go there and take a look."
His Majesty made up his mind and hastened his steps.
"Your Majesty! You've said it yourself. The commotion at the Residence of Nine Supremes could be caused by the heretics. It's better to wait until the matter is settled before we go! "
"It's alright. We'll only watch from afar this time, we won't really get close. Even if it's really the heretics who are causing trouble at the Residence of Nine Supremes, I don't think they'll lay a hand on us." The emperor's expression was rather complicated and melancholy as he said, "My dear minister Qiu, you may not know this, but right now … I have a vague feeling that perhaps after today … we … will never see the Residence of Nine Supremes again …"
Just as His Majesty stepped out of the hall, the entire sky suddenly turned purple!
The entire sky was like a pure, dark purple jade that was tens of millions of miles in size, inlaid in the sky!
…
Endless Sea.
The surface of the sea, which had always been calm, suddenly became turbulent, and golden light flickered.
With a whoosh, the waves soared into the sky, reaching thousands of feet high. Golden light flashed in the sky, and more than ten figures appeared in the sky, standing on the waves. They stared at the deep purple color in the sky, and suddenly roared towards the sky!
"The seal is finally broken!"
"The wheel of the era has begun once again!"
"I'm waiting for my destiny!"
"The winds and clouds of the world are finally moving!"
"Go!"
"To the Xuanhuang World!"
"This time, I must seize this opportunity!"
More than a dozen figures waved their sleeves and soared into the sky, disappearing in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the thousand-foot-tall wave crashed down, followed by a tsunami …
…
In a hidden valley somewhere.
Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou, who had just gone through a great chase, as well as the severely injured Gu Chaliang and Feng Xiange, stood up immediately as well, gazing at the sky for a long time.
They were less than three thousand miles away from Tiantang City. If the four of them had been in perfect condition and sprinted at full speed, they could have rushed back in four hours at most. However, they did not have the strength to do so now.
The four of them looked at the sudden change of heaven and earth, astonishment written all over their faces.
Ling Xiaozui was astonished, shocked, doubtful, and puzzled by the sudden change; so was Dugu Chou.
In spite of this, Feng Xiange's eyes were gleaming as a massive aura flashed across him.
Gu Chaliang, on the other hand, was the most shocked among the four of them. He stared at the sky, dumbstruck, before he began to tremble.
Lowering his head, he stared at the purple jade flute in his hand in a daze. After a while, he cried out involuntarily, "It's too late!"
Dugu Chou turned around abruptly. "Too late? What's too late? "
Gu Chaliang stomped his feet and said, "We can't make it back to Tiantang City in time … Oh God, what should we do? We've actually missed this great opportunity because of our stubbornness! "His frustrated expression looked like he was about to tear his own head off; he was in so much pain that he wished he was dead.
"What's going on? How is this a great opportunity? "asked Ling Xiaozui.
Gu Chaliang suddenly grabbed Ling Xiaozui's hand, his expression extremely serious. "Old Ling! You are the only one who can help us right now! You must help me! "
When he said 'you must help me', Gu Chaliang's expression turned menacing.
"What's going on? How can I help you if you don't explain yourself? "asked Ling Xiaozui.
Now that so many things had happened, Gu Chaliang had successfully cleared his suspicion. Not only was Ling Xiaozui no longer suspicious of him, he was also almost defenseless. Currently, they were truly sworn brothers of life and death. If he could help, of course, he would not refuse. However, Gu Chaliang had spoken so solemnly that even though Ling Xiaozui had decided to help, he still had to ask for clarification.
"Please!" Gu Chaliang's face was filled with determination. With a sudden flick of his wrist, he passed the purple jade flute in his hand over.
The group had seen the purple jade flute in Gu Chaliang's hand many times throughout this period of time they had spent together, so they did not feel much about it. However, when they looked at it again now, they were shocked to realize that the color of the purple jade flute was actually the same as the purple that had coalesced in the sky. There was no difference at all.
"Please, you must hurry to Tiantang City at the fastest speed and throw this purple jade flute into the Residence of Nine Supremes! Please! "
Gu Chaliang offered the purple jade flute with both hands and dropped to his knees with a thud. "This incident concerns the welfare of this world. My personal fate is inconsequential, but … I beg of you … You must go as fast as you can … Even if you have to risk your life … there mustn't be a moment of delay. You must make it!"
Ling Xiaozui was shocked by Gu Chaliang's action. "This …"
"There's really no time to explain now!" Gu Chaliang was burning with anxiety. "Please, you must believe me … or else … or else … it's all over …"
The purple jade flute glowed and shimmered like it was responding to the purple hue in the sky. It looked like it could soar into the sky at any time.
"What is it?" Ling Xiaozui frowned. "Can't you let me know?"
Gu Chaliang was so anxious that he did not know what to say. He stomped his feet and said, "Stop nagging, go quickly! I beg you, go quickly! The Nine Supremes have returned! The Nine Supremes have returned! "
