The Eastern Region was actually divided into four regions: Eastern Yuan, Western Yuan, Southern Yuan, and Northern Yuan!
The four regions corresponded to the four transcendent forces: Yuan Gate, Sky Firmament Academy, Seven Martial Pavilion, and War God Mangya. Yuan Gate was the leader of the Eastern Region, Sky Firmament Academy was the leader of the Western Region, Seven Martial Pavilion was the leader of the Southern Region, and War God Mangya was the leader of the Northern Region.
Just as the Northern Region was in an uproar, Xiao Fan and the others had already left the Northern Region and arrived at the Western Region.
There were two reasons for coming to the Western Region!
Firstly, Lin Shan, Xue Hong, and Mu Junsu were going to participate in the Prodigy Battle of the Three Major Regions. Until now, they had yet to obtain the qualifications to participate in the Prodigy Battle of the Three Major Regions. Therefore, when Xiao Fan came to the Xiyuan Region, he had to resolve this matter first.
Second, he came for Ning Shuang, Jiang Yi, and Nangong Wen. Previously, they had all gone to the Central Region from Qingyun Lower State. However, due to various reasons, they came to the Dongling Lower State. Xiao Fan and Akira Yuki went to the Spirit Region, Little Bastard and Lin Shan went to the Dark Region, and the remaining four people, Xuan Luo, Nangong Wen, Ning Shuang, and Jiang Yi, came to the Eastern Region.
Now that Xiao Fan had arrived in the Eastern Region, it was time to meet up with them.
Putting aside Xuan Luo, Nangong Wen, Ning Shuang, and Jiang Yi, Xiao Fan could sense that they were in the Western Region. Coincidentally, Xiao Fan had something to do in the Western Region as well. Therefore, he decided to meet up with the three of them first.
However!
Just as Xiao Fan and the others arrived in the Western Region and headed to the place where Lin Shan, Snow Red, and Mu Junsu could obtain the qualification to participate in the Prodigy Battle of the Three Regions, Fairy Qingwu in the Yuan Gate finally ushered in the Three Days Tribulation!
In the Punishment Hall!
"You're saying that Zhou Xian and the others were killed by Jian Wuchen, the founder of the Sky Sword Mountain in the Spirit Region? All for the sake of the Great Halberd? " That emotionless voice rang from the depths of the Punishment Hall. "The Great Halberd of Province Breaking failed because Heavenly Sword Mountain attacked?"
"As for how you were able to cross the Heavenspan River during the hot season and return to the eastern region, was it because you encountered the Buddha Pearl by chance?"
"Yes!" Fairy Qing Wu braced herself and said. There was a trace of trembling in her voice.
During these three days, Fairy Qingwu tossed and turned in bed. In the end, she made a decision to conceal what had happened in Spirit Realm and the fact that she had been to Dark Realm.
The reason why Fairy Qingwu did this was that she had no choice but to do it.
She hadn't forgotten the task that Xiao Fan had given her. Moreover, her life was still in the hands of Xiao Fan. Fairy Qing Wu didn't doubt that she would be annihilated if she didn't complete the task properly after a month.
Therefore, if she revealed the matter of Spirit Realm and Dark Realm, what awaited her would be an intense shock and endless interrogation of the Origin Gate.
At that time, the situation would be completely out of Fairy Qingwu's control. It would be difficult for her to have the time and opportunity to complete Xiao Fan's task.
Therefore, in order to complete Xiao Fan's task first, and for the sake of her own life, she could only choose to conceal and lie. She had no other choice.
And as long as she completed Xiao Fan's task, she could kowtow to the sect and admit her mistake. Then, she would tell them everything about Spirit Realm and Dark Realm. There was still room for redemption.
However, the problem now was, could these concealment and lies deceive the sect?
The sect was unfathomable and could see through people's hearts. Fairy Qingwu didn't have much confidence in these little tricks of hers. She had no confidence in passing.
But she could only give it a try. Whether it would succeed or not, she had to try.
If she didn't even try, then there was really no chance of success.
"Yuanzi, what do you think?" After hearing all of Fairy Qingwu's narration and affirmative answers, the emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall didn't say anything to Fairy Qingwu. Instead, it suddenly opened its mouth, as if it was asking someone beside it.
"Yuanzi, he's here too?" Hearing the emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall, Fairy Qingwu's body suddenly trembled. She couldn't help but raise her head and look at the depths of the Punishment Hall.
But unfortunately.
The depths of the Punishment Hall were pitch black. She couldn't see anything at all. She couldn't see his figure at all.
"There are more lies than truth. You can't believe it!" Yuanzi opened his mouth at this time. His voice carried an innate emperor's aura. Every word and action was like the voice of heaven, making people have no choice but to submit to him.
"I...!" Fairy Qing Wu's whole body suddenly trembled violently. Her face was deathly pale, and cold sweat immediately came out in big drops. Then, it dripped down her cheeks onto the extremely cold ground.
Sure enough, she couldn't hide it from the sect. The lie was exposed on the spot, and there was no room for negotiation.
"What does Yuanzi think is true and which is false?" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall opened his mouth again. He didn't avoid Fairy Qingwu and asked.
"The Sky Sword Mountain's opening, the Laozu Sect's Jian Wuchen, the Buddha Bead, and so on should be true. As for the other places, although they seem to be connected and logical, they are actually a bunch of nonsense!" Yuanzi opened his mouth again. His voice seemed to ring in Fairy Qingwu's ears. Fairy Qingwu's face became even paler. Her entire body went limp on the ground, unable to move.
"Yuanzi and I have the same opinion!" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall said, "But if the Sky Sword Mountain's opening, the Laozu Sect's Jian Wuchen, the Buddha Bead and so on should be true, then it means that Ning Qingwu has indeed experienced these things personally!"
"It seems that something incredible has happened in the Spirit Domain, and Ning Qingwu has concealed a lot of things. She deserves to be punished!"
Yuanzi didn't speak anymore. His aura was also inaudible. It was as if he didn't exist in the depths of the Punishment Hall.
"Ning Qingwu, do you know your crime?" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall said. His voice rang in Fairy Qingwu's ears like a clap of thunder.
Fairy Qingwu couldn't say anything. She just prostrated there, her body trembling non-stop. She didn't dare to move at all. She was waiting desperately for the severe punishment from the sect.
However!
The expected severe punishment didn't come. Instead, the emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall spoke to Yuanzi in shock.
"Yuanzi, you want to accept her?" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall finally changed. There was a hint of surprise in it as it spoke to Yuanzi.
"Yes!" Yuanzi opened his mouth and said simply.
"This woman is full of unfathomable thoughts. She has concealed a lot of things. She should be punished. Yuanzi, why do you want to accept such a person?" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall said. He couldn't understand Yuanzi's thoughts.
"Everyone has secrets!" Yuanzi opened his mouth and said calmly. His voice came from the depths of the Punishment Hall. "Everyone in the Yuan Gate has their own secrets, including you and me!"
"But as long as it doesn't threaten the interests of the sect, there's no need to say these secrets. You can keep them because they belong to you!"
"Although that's true, this woman has concealed a lot of things. It's really unsettling!" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall said.
"Ning Qingwu isn't stupid. She should know very well what she's doing!" Yuanzi opened his mouth again. His voice was ethereal, as if it came from the sky, but also as if it came from the ground. It seemed to come from all directions. "But she still chose to conceal and lie. This means that she has her own difficulties and has no choice but to do so!"
"So, there's no harm in letting her live!"
"Not to mention, what can she do in my Yuan Gate?"
"Yes, Yuanzi is right!" The emotionless voice in the depths of the Punishment Hall calmed down and agreed with Yuanzi.
"Ning Qingwu!" Yuanzi opened his mouth.
"Ning Qingwu is here!" Fairy Qingwu kowtowed heavily and said in a trembling voice.
"Today, I'll make the decision to let you go. I won't pursue the matter of you deceiving the sect today, and I won't interrogate you about the Spirit Realm!" Yuanzi said.
"Thank, thank you, Yuanzi for your kindness!" Seeing that she had finally escaped, Fairy Qingwu immediately kowtowed to the depths of the Punishment Hall and said in a trembling voice.
"But I won't pursue the matter today. Just because I won't interrogate you doesn't mean that I won't pursue the matter in the future. I won't interrogate you about the Spirit Realm in the future!" Yuanzi said. His voice was calm, but it gave people an extremely strong pressure. It was as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them, making it difficult for them to breathe.
"Yes!" Fairy Qingwu kowtowed heavily again. Her forehead hit the ground and made an extremely low sound. She opened her mouth and said in a trembling voice.
"From today onwards, you are one of my people. You will listen to my orders!" Yuanzi said.
"I will obey Yuanzi's order!" Hearing Yuanzi's words, Fairy Qingwu was both excited and frightened. She kowtowed again and said in a trembling voice.
Becoming one of Yuanzi's people and working for Yuanzi was the biggest dream of every Yuan Gate disciple. Although she didn't know why Yuanzi wanted to take her in, Fairy Qingwu was only excited at this moment.
However, her intuition told her that Yuanzi must have a deeper reason for taking her in. It wasn't simple, and there might even be fatal dangers hidden in it. Therefore, Fairy Qingwu couldn't hide the fear in her heart.
"Alright, go. I will instruct you if there's anything!" Yuanzi said.
"Yes!" Fairy Qingwu kowtowed respectfully to the depths of the Punishment Hall again. Then, she stood up with difficulty and wanted to leave the Punishment Hall.
"This is for you!" However, Yuanzi opened his mouth again and said, "Not only is this a reward for you, but it is also a symbol of your status as one of my people!"
With that, a droplet of faint-golden blood immediately shot out from the depths of the punishment hall. Before fairy Qing Wu could react, it had already vanished into her forehead. It entered her body and vanished.
"This is …?" Fairy Qingwu was stunned.
"This is the blood of divine gold!" Yuanzi said. His voice suddenly carried a trace of indescribable dignity. It was as if he was an emperor sitting in the depths of the Punishment Hall, overlooking all living things.
