For example, why did the Qing Emperor have a conflict with the Tianwu Emperor's inheritor? Why did the people of the Deep Abyss Demonic Race appear coincidentally? There were too many suspicious points.
However, even if Xiao Chen asked her, she probably would not know. All she could see were the records of the various Holy Lands.
Yue Bingyun gave Xiao Chen a strange look and said, "You seem rather calm."
Xiao Chen did not answer Yue Bingyun. Instead, he frowned and said, "You mentioned the Dark Church. How much do you know about this church?"
"I don't know much. The founder and Elders of this church are very mysterious. This is especially so for the Church Master. His status is no lower than the Demon Monarch's. They also created the Demonic God. They have branches in the three thousand lower realms."
Indeed, there was not much. Xiao Chen did not linger on this question. He asked, "What is the relationship between that old lady and the Qing Emperor?"
When Yue Bingyun heard this, she revealed a somewhat sorrowful expression. She said indifferently, "You should have heard that in the history of the Lunar Palace, there was a Holy Daughter who fell in love with an outsider. That was my master."
This was more or less what Yue Bingyun expected. Otherwise, she would not have asked Xiao Chen so many seemingly ordinary questions.
"She was the most talented Holy Daughter in the history of the Lunar Palace. At the age of twenty, she cultivated the Longevity Art to the tenth layer. Furthermore, she even completed the last two incomplete layers, making great contributions to the Lunar Palace.
"Unfortunately, she fell in love with someone she should not have. Her hair turned white, and she aged. She locked herself in this Meditation Moon Palace for more than ten thousand years and gained nothing."
Yue Bingyun continued, "I'm a little curious. What did my master ask you? In order to bring you to Bright Moon City and meet you, she sent you to Bright Moon City. In order to bring you to Bright Moon City and meet you, she ignored the Palace Master's objections and forcefully changed the most important gift of this Four Seas Hero Gathering to the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet. "
Xiao Chen felt somewhat sorrowful. After thinking for a while, he honestly told Yue Bingyun the contents of his conversation with the old lady.
When Yue Bingyun heard this, she felt very surprised. Unexpectedly, this old lady spent so much effort to bring Xiao Chen to Bright Moon City just to ask him some trivial matters.
After a long time, she said, "The ten thousand years in the Meditation Moon Palace did not erase her longing. I really want to see for myself how charming the Qing Emperor of ten thousand years ago was."
What kind of charm did he have to move the Lunar Palace's Holy Daughter? Just how strong was he to be able to personally bury an entire golden age?
Honestly speaking, Xiao Chen was very curious as well.
"However, speaking of which, although Master took out the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet, it will only benefit others." Yue Bingyun changed the topic, changing the topic to the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Master of the Sect Master of Xiao Clan's Emperor."
With a smile, Yue Bingyun looked seriously at Xiao Chen and said, "Your Heavenly Seal is not complete yet. That is to say, you are still a Small Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. If it's just this, it's still a bit too difficult for you to stand out and dominate the crowd with your elegant demeanor. "
"The most important thing is that you are an outsider. If you do not have an absolute advantage and defeat the various outstanding talents, the Lunar Palace's judges might not give you the top prize."
Xiao Chen's expression changed as he exclaimed, "There is such a thing? Isn't the Lunar Palace neutral?"
"That's right. The Lunar Palace is indeed neutral. It will not get involved in the conflicts between you and the Holy Scions. However, there are not many people in the Lunar Palace who have a good impression of the Qing Emperor. If you cannot create a situation where they have nothing to say and can't argue with you … "
Yue Bingyun continued unhurriedly, "Even if your elegance is the most outstanding among all the outstanding talents, you might not be able to obtain the top prize."
Xiao Chen did not get angry, just somewhat shocked. After all, the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet was in the hands of the Lunar Palace. The Lunar Palace had not begged him to participate in the Four Seas Hero Gathering. He was the one who wanted to come.
On the other hand, Yue Bingyun had said many things to him that she should not have.
For example, the last part. As a member of the Lunar Palace, logically speaking, she should not have told him this information.
Xiao Chen did not think that he was the Qing Emperor, relying on his charm to subdue this Holy Daughter. He was not that naive.
This Yue Bingyun before him was still unfathomable. He could not figure out her background or what she wanted.
"I'm leaving. Thank you for the final reminder. However, I have to obtain the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet. Three days later, you will see a situation that will leave everyone speechless. I will use my own strength to let the Lunar Palace judge and hand the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet to me. "
Xiao Chen spoke calmly, but the expression on his face was extremely resolute. His gaze was as sharp as a sword, piercing through the sky.
Yue Bingyun felt somewhat startled. Unexpectedly, after Xiao Chen obtained her news, he did not feel frustrated or angry at all. His mental state did not show any openings at all.
As Yue Bingyun watched Xiao Chen jump off the Meditation Moon Palace and leave, she said softly, "I really look forward to it three days later. I want to see whether you are confident or arrogant."
Three days later, Xiao Chen, Qi Wuxue, and Long Fei woke up early and gathered in the courtyard.
Qi Wuxue only intended to join in on the excitement of the Four Seas Hero Gathering. Of course, he did not expect to make a name for himself.
As for Long Fei, he made ample preparations. He wanted to clash head-on with the Holy Scions of the Immortal Holy Lands and see the distance between him and them.
As for Xiao Chen, his target was very clear: the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet. He was here for the Dragon's Gate's mountain tablet.
"Don't go yet. I'll pray to the gods first!"
Qi Wuxue held on to Long Fei and Xiao Chen. Then, he pressed his palms together and bowed to the east.
"Hehe! I hope that I, Qi Wuxue, can have a good time today. I hope that Long Fei can make a name for himself and win the attention of many beauties. I hope that Old Brother Xiao Chen can teach those Holy Scions a lesson on my behalf."
Long Fei smiled helplessly and said, "There is no such thing as a god in this world. The Deity Race's methods are only used to trick ordinary people to obtain the power of faith."
After Qi Wuxue finished bowing, he said mysteriously, "Naturally, in this Heavenly Starry Ocean, we worship the Sea God. I heard that the Sea God really exists at the end of the ocean. There are many believers in the vast oceanic world. Of course, the believers are just ordinary people. Cultivators rarely believe in such things. I heard that at the end of the ocean … "
Xiao Chen had already reached the courtyard gates. He turned his head and said, "Let's go. It's time to go to Bright Moon Plaza."
Long Fei immediately followed. Qi Wuxue said, "Wait for me. I'm not done yet!"
Bright Moon Plaza was very crowded, with many entrances. When the three arrived, there were no good spots left. They could only choose a relatively high spot in the periphery.
Given their eyesight, they could clearly see the arena in the plaza, which was very far away.
That was a vast arena with a formation laid by a Sovereign Martial Emperor below, changing the laws of space. If one went deep into it, they would feel an even vaster space.
Even if a peak Consummation expert like the Blue Robed Emperor fought in there, there would be no need to worry about the shockwaves affecting the spectating cultivators.
Many exquisite pavilions hovered in the air above the plaza. Those were the VIP pavilions that the Lunar Palace prepared for the various Holy Lands and large clans.
At this moment, the gathering had not officially started yet. More than a thousand female disciples performed the famous Bright Moon Sword Dance of the Lunar Palace. This was much larger than the scene that Long Fei participated in back then.
The bright moon rose and fell, the sword images flashed, and the beauties danced. The performance before the opening was not boring at all.
Qi Wuxue watched intently, clicking his tongue in praise. He said excitedly, "Later, when the bright moon soars into the sky and the ten thousand swords fly together, the Four Seas Hero Gathering will officially start."
Xiao Chen watched interestedly. The bright moon above the arena glowed with a faint light. The one thousand white-clad women looked like fairies dancing around the bright moon.
There were also disciples playing flutes behind them. The one leading them was Fang Qingxuan. The flute music spread out, merging with the sword dance. It was hard to tell who was leading and who was following. It was like they were in a dream.
It was hard to tell whether they were immersed in the flute music or in the ever-changing Bright Moon Sword Dance.
The flute music suddenly turned lofty and hot-blooded. That was the sound of killing, the hot-bloodedness hidden in every cultivator's body.
Under the sound of the flute, he was completely ignited, burning fiercely. There was a flame burning in his chest.
The one thousand white-clad women formed a circle of swords. They all danced with their swords in different movements as they chanted sonorous and hot-blooded poems.
When the flute music reached its climax, it suddenly stopped. A huge bright moon that could compete with the sun soared into the sky from the circle of swords.
Many swords flew out of the hands of the white-clad women. Everyone was startled awake in that instant, shocked by the scene before them.
Loud rumbling rang out. As the bright moon soared, the vast arena actually soared into the air as well, leaving the ground.
After that, the arena split up and formed smaller arenas that hovered in midair. They were like stars surrounding the moon, serving as a contrast to the tallest and largest arena.
Xiao Chen counted carefully. Not counting the largest arena, there were a total of one hundred smaller arenas of varying heights. They surrounded the tallest arena, hovering in the air.
On each of the small arenas, there were ten white-robed women who did not leave.
As for the largest arena, Fang Qingxuan led ten elite female disciples to guard it.
Qi Wuxue explained, "Haha! It's finally starting. The first ones to face in the first stage are those ten Lunar Palace disciples."
Xiao Chen asked, "Does everyone have the qualifications to go up the arena? Is there a need for any additional explanation or declaration? "
Long Fei had arrived early and was no stranger to this. He smiled and said, "Just be casual. Although the Four Seas Hero Gathering's style is constantly changing, it has always been casual. This is to give everyone a chance to display themselves."
Qi Wuxue nodded and smiled interestedly. "In every Four Seas Hero Gathering, there are always people who rush up excitedly, wanting to be the first to occupy the arena. In the end, they get blasted off by ten girls. I wonder who will end up as a joke this year."
As the three spoke, the plaza was already in an uproar. Countless people soared into the air, rushing to the arenas in the center with faces filled with excitement.
The Lunar Palace experts guarding the arenas attacked at the same time. With one palm strike, they immediately eliminated most of the people. After that, they no longer bothered with them.
This was the first time Xiao Chen saw such a scene, so he could not help feeling startled.
Aside from the Four Seas Hero Gathering's great influence and fame, there was another important reason for such a grand occasion.
