Yan Zhaoge's mother, Xue Chuqing, was secretly wanted in some places of the World beyond Worlds.
Or rather, she might not be wanted, but there were many people who wanted to find her.
These were mainly the central Jun Heaven Territory, the eastern Vast Heaven Territory, the northwestern Dim Heaven Territory, and the western Turtle Heaven Territory.
Now that they knew that Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di might be related to Xue Chuqing, they now had an extremely powerful clue in their search for her.
Therefore, Zhuang Shen had the confidence to invite the Eastern Exalt Daoist Oneheaven and the Northwestern Exalt Lian Zulin to assist him.
Still, when the name of the Northwestern Exalt was mentioned, Zhuang Shen looked at Lang Qing.
Generally speaking, besides the central Jun Heaven Territory, the other eight Territories of the World beyond Worlds were not on good terms with the neighbouring Territories.
The accumulation of disputes, big and small, would eventually lead to a tense relationship even if it did not turn into a feud.
However, some of them could be restrained, while others would gradually erupt.
This was not just reflected between the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory and the southern Blazing Heaven Territory.
The southeastern Yang Heaven Territory and the eastern Vast Heaven Territory, the eastern Vast Heaven Territory and the northeastern Sky Heaven Territory, and the northeastern Sky Heaven Territory and the northern Profound Heaven Territory were not on good terms.
Similarly, there were many conflicts between the western Turtle Heaven Territory and the northwestern Dim Heaven Territory.
The Western Exalt Lang Qing had a calm expression on his face, "At the very least, she and I share the same opinion regarding Hu Yuexin's descendant."
"This is the reason why I asked her to help me. I believe she won't refuse."
Zhuang Shen nodded. "That's good."
He had previously adopted a neutral attitude towards Xue Chuqing's matter. If the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors did not make a clear decision, then he would ignore it.
Now, however, having vaguely sensed the relationship between Yan Zhaoge and Xue Chuqing, Zhuang Shen's opinion on this matter naturally changed accordingly.
"While there is no concrete evidence, my deduction should not be wrong. Yan Zhaoge is related to Hu Yuexin's descendant," Zhuang Shen asked, "Since that is so, can Elder Wang step forward?"
Lang Qing shook his head. "He might be able to make things easier for us, but I don't know if he will show up personally."
Zhuang Shen raised his head slightly, exhaling slowly, "When news of the Immortal Artifact of the Dim Radiant Mausoleum having fallen into the hands of that Yan Zhaoge back then spread, since Elder Wang did not make an appearance, it is hard to say now."
The Wutong Slope martial practitioners behind him all revealed looks of regret.
The 'Elder Wang' that Zhuang Shen and Lang Qing mentioned was none other than the Earth Exalt, Wang Zhengcheng!
The Lord of the central Jun Heaven Territory, one of the peak figures of the entire World beyond Worlds' Martial Saint realm.
More importantly, Wang Zhengcheng's decisions were often backed by the will of the Earthly Sovereign.
"It doesn't matter." Zhuang Shen's gaze was deep as he slowly said, "Contact Daoist Oneheaven and Fellow Daoist Lian."
Lang Qing said, "We need to appease the others as well. Let's make some appropriate concessions to prevent people from causing trouble behind us when we head to the southeast."
Zhuang Shen nodded, saying slowly, "Since that is so, let us wait for the Heaven Emperor to return to the World beyond Worlds."
"When we emerge from seclusion, the Heaven Emperor and the Brocade Emperor are in extradimensional space. They might also be able to extricate themselves and return. The Heaven Emperor has long since learnt of the deaths of Qing Shuzi and Daoist Leading Mist. While the Brocade Emperor is fast, the Heaven Emperor should not be much slower than him."
Zhuang Shen turned to look in the direction of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory, "Opening ceremony? It just so happens that there's still some time left. Since that's the case, we'll also go congratulate you on that day. "
…
Broad Creed Mountain soon learnt of the news that the Southern Exalt had finally returned to the southern Blazing Heaven Territory.
This was because the Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie had similarly returned to the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory.
After learning of all that had happened earlier, the Southeastern Exalt Cao Jie too felt this to be unexpected.
Still, he still quickly made arrangements.
With regards to Broad Creed Mountain's opening ceremony, Cao Jie had clearly expressed that he would personally attend the ceremony.
With that, Broad Creed Mountain and Golden Court Mountain both understood that the Southeastern Exalt was going to support Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain.
At the same time, Yan Zhaoge and the others learnt from Cao Jie that the Brocade Emperor Fu Yunchi had already returned from extradimensional space, returning to the World beyond Worlds.
News from Kunlun Mountain's Ingenious Flying Peak's Red Lotus Cliff confirmed this as well.
While there was still no news of the Heaven Emperor's return, the Brocade Emperor might have returned before him. Most people heaved a sigh of relief at this.
After thanking the guests of Ingenious Flying Peak, Yan Zhaoge continued making preparations neither hurriedly nor slowly.
"From the looks of it, after experiencing a peak, the conflict between the Immortal Court and Buddhism will gradually calm down afterwards." Yan Zhaoge pondered, "Barring any major incidents, the next peak might have to wait another hundred years."
A hint of gloominess flashed through Yan Zhaoge's gaze.
With the great battle between the Immortal Court and the blessed lands having ended, the war had turned into a phase of overall confrontation and local conflicts.
With that, the Immortal Court might be able to divert more attention to the World beyond Worlds.
The aftereffects of him obtaining the Dim Radiant Wheel might gradually begin to manifest.
The Immortal Court might still be far away, but it was still unclear what the bigwigs of the World beyond Worlds, who were right before him, would think of this.
The Myriad Dragon Palace hovered above Yan Zhaoge's head, its door open as the space within was blurry.
Now, a completely transparent silhouette appeared, gradually becoming clearer as it finally manifested as a massive black metal wheel.
Of the twelve slots on the wheel, nine of them were currently flickering with light that was bright or dim, rotating alongside the black metal wheel.
While it still looked ordinary, the power contained within was vigorous and tyrannical to the extreme.
Because it had yet to be completely refined, it was still not convenient to wield it.
Even so, however, the weight of its power was already enough to leave one sighing in amazement.
It was precisely the Dim Radiant Wheel.
After a long period of refinement, this treasure was already much more perfected than it had been in the past as it unceasingly advanced towards completion.
Towards Yan Zhaoge, it had long since ceased to be as indifferent and indifferent as it had been in the past. While it could not be as nimble as a Sacred Artifact, Yan Zhaoge had already gradually developed a telepathic connection with it.
Yan Zhaoge temporarily halted with the remaining three slots.
His current cultivation base was still low. While his artifact forging techniques were exquisite, the time was still not ripe for him to completely refine it into an Immortal Artifact.
Still, according to his original plan, it would already be sufficient.
Not completely refining it into an Immortal Artifact, there would not be much of a difference between nine slots and eleven slots in his plan.
Keeping a few high-grade Sacred Artifacts would be more beneficial in raising the combat power of himself and his sect.
Before their opening ceremony, the Ten Exalts had all returned from Kunlun Mountain. At the same time, the Brocade Emperor had also been able to free himself from extradimensional space.
While the Brocade Emperor had returned a little earlier, the Heaven Emperor would not be much later as he would likely return before their opening ceremony.
Yan Zhaoge did not believe that the Southern Exalt would let the matter rest since he had yet to make a move.
Perhaps everyone was waiting for that day to arrive.
The Royal Reed Sea was about to welcome an unprecedented event.
