Hearing Gao Xuebo's words, Yan Zhaoge's gaze turned solemn.
As the eldest son of the Profound Sovereign and the Spring Emperor, a figure of the same generation as the Sword Sovereign – Yue Zhenbei and the Earth Exalt – Wang Zhengcheng, and managing many affairs of the Roving Jade Heavens on behalf of his parents, Gao Xuebo's knowledge naturally far surpassed that of ordinary people.
This particular reminder of his was very subtle.
The attitude of the Sword Sovereign and the Astro Sovereign amongst the sovereigns of the World beyond Worlds was self-evident.
And Gao Xuebo's words seemed to not only refer to the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign.
"Senior apprentice-uncle Gao, you mean …" Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes and pointed upwards.
Gao Xuebo said slowly, "This is what the old Grand Master said in the past. This old man can't be sure, but you have to be careful."
"Thank you for your reminder, senior apprentice-uncle Gao." Yan Zhaoge nodded thoughtfully.
He then asked, "I was busy looking for the Astro Sovereign earlier and couldn't get in touch with him. Is there any news from the Immortal Court? Also, has the Earthly Sovereign returned to the World beyond Worlds? "
"I haven't heard of it," Gao Xuebo also revealed a puzzled expression.
Logically speaking, some time had passed since the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng had been killed.
If the Earthly Sovereign had rushed back immediately upon receiving the news, he would probably have already returned to the World beyond Worlds.
Similarly, Wang Pu and the others had tried to contact the Sword Sovereign – Yue Zhenbei immediately.
However, there had been no reply before Yan Zhaoge had left the World beyond Worlds.
"News from the Roving Jade Heavens is not as smooth as that from the World beyond Worlds," Gao Xuebo shook his head, "This old man can't be sure about the current situation of the Immortal Court."
The relationship between the Roving Jade Heavens and the Immortal Court was even more tense.
When the peak experts of the Prime Clear lineage met with the bigwigs of the Immortal Court, most of them directly fought.
"However, there was some unconfirmed news recently that the Immortal Court seems to be in some chaos, but the reason for this is unknown."
Hearing this, Yan Zhaoge became interested, "Oh? Is there a conflict with the blessed lands of Buddhism again? "
Gao Xuebo answered cautiously, "As for the specifics, there is no news yet."
"Is that so …" Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before cupping his hands towards Gao Xuebo, "Since that is so, I will first return to the World beyond Worlds. I hope that I will be able to see the Profound Sovereign and senior apprentice-granduncle Long the next time I come."
After taking his leave of Gao Xuebo and leaving the Spirit Leaf Cave, Yan Zhaoge immediately saw Gao Qing.
Gao Qing currently had a panicked expression on her face. Seeing Yan Zhaoge, she hurriedly asked, "Little apprentice-uncle, little apprentice-uncle, you've already met my grandfather? Do you know about Granny Li? "
Looking at the anxious Gao Qing, Yan Zhaoge sighed inwardly, nodding, "I know."
He consoled Gao Qing, saying, "Don't be anxious. Senior Chu should be fine for now. It's just that he has left the Roving Jade Heavens."
"Why is it like this?" Gao Qing did feel a little more at ease, but her face was still filled with worry. "He's been fine all these years."
Yan Zhaoge's gaze was deep and distant as he thought, "This is because Chu Lili herself might not be aware that her being able to leave the World beyond Worlds safely that year and hide in the Roving Jade Heavens might have been the result of someone's deliberate ploy …"
Looking at the troubled and worried Gao Qing, Yan Zhaoge sighed, consoling her for a bit before sending her off to look for Gao Xuebo before leaving.
After leaving the Roving Jade Heavens and returning to the World beyond Worlds, Yan Zhaoge pondered as he walked.
He had finally returned to the World beyond Worlds through a wound of the sky.
As soon as he had returned and interacted with others, Yan Zhaoge could feel that the atmosphere of the World beyond Worlds was clearly different from when he had left.
Back when he had just slain the Earth Exalt Wang Zhengcheng, the entire World beyond Worlds had been panic-stricken as winds and rains had vaguely appeared.
When Broad Creed Mountain had relocated to the eastern Vast Heaven Territory and officially established its name as the East Peak of Daoism, this momentum had instead intensified.
Most people were watching on, wanting to see how Broad Creed Mountain would face the pressure brought about by the Earthly Sovereign.
Those who knew about the relationship between the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion and Yan Zhaoge all felt uneasy.
The business of the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion had plummeted as a result.
At the end of the day, no one thought well of Broad Creed Mountain.
While Kunlun Mountain's Northern High Peak's Jade Capital Crag seemed to be on the same side as Broad Creed Mountain, advancing and retreating together.
Still, the Sword Sovereign alone still appeared weak in comparison to the pressure brought about by the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign.
This was especially so as compared to the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign, the Sword Sovereign had risen to prominence much later after all.
Although the Sword Sovereign's prestige had become more and more powerful due to Yan Zhaoge's efforts, he was still in the stage of accumulating power.
He was not like the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign, who were both legendary existences who had established the World beyond Worlds.
If the Concealed Sovereign hadn't been in seclusion and hadn't declared his position yet, which made things a little suspenseful, the public's opinion would probably be more one-sided.
However, something happened not long ago, which changed the situation of the entire World beyond Worlds greatly.
Before the Sword Sovereign, he had been one of the original three sovereigns of the World beyond Worlds alongside the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign. Out of everyone's expectation, the Astro Sovereign who had disappeared for many years had returned!
The younger martial artists with lower cultivation might have even forgotten the existence of the Astro Sovereign.
However, how could they forget the high-level figures?
The Exalted Water Luminary, the original ruler of the World beyond Worlds, Chen Xuanzong, was also one of the new Nine Luminaries of Kunlun!
The Concealed Sovereign had always been low-key. When the Astro Sovereign was still in power, his influence was even greater than that of the Concealed Sovereign.
Maybe the Sword Sovereign, who was active in the current era, had a more direct and deep influence in people's hearts.
However, when the opponents were the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign, the Astro Sovereign who was in the same era as them could give people more confidence.
Now, few people knew that the Exalted Gold Luminary and the Exalted Water Luminary were very close friends.
However, after the Astro Sovereign returned to the World beyond Worlds, he didn't return to the Kunlun Mountain in the Central Jun Heaven Territory, but stayed in the Broad Creed Mountain in the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory. Therefore, people immediately understood the attitude of the Astro Sovereign.
Like the Sword Sovereign, he supported the Broad Creed Mountain without any doubt!
In this way, the situation in the World beyond Worlds became stable.
The business of the Heavenly Mysteries Pavilion started to get better.
It wasn't that people chose sides. In most people's opinion, the two sides were evenly matched and had reached a balance. The final result was likely to be a compromise to avoid further conflicts and wars.
After staying in the Broad Creed Mountain as a guest for a while, Astro Sovereign left for the Kunlun Mountain.
His destination wasn't the Jade Sky Peak where he used to live, but the Restful Immortal Valley where the Concealed Sovereign lived.
This became the most concerned thing in the World beyond Worlds recently.
Everyone was eager to know the result of the Astro Sovereign's trip.
Only Yan Zhaoge vaguely guessed that the Astro Sovereign didn't go there for peace talks, but to find trouble.
"It's almost time. The Astro Sovereign will go back to the World beyond Worlds to stabilize his body and further suppress the restlessness of the demons. After resting, he will go to the Kunlun Mountain to settle the score." Yan Zhaoge immediately turned around and went straight to the Kunlun Mountain, "The one he is looking for is indeed the Concealed Sovereign."
