Ji Meili said, "You can't blame it. It's not up to it to choose its Innate Ability."
Miao Yi didn't blame it. He was just a little disappointed. Seeing how upset it was, he patted its head and said, "It's fine. Even if you can't win, you can still run. You can fly now, can't you?" As he said this, he sat on its back and reached down.
What kind of comfort was that? Ji Meili didn't let her emotions show on her face, so she couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. She reached out her hand, and Miao Yi grabbed it and pulled her up to sit in front of him. Miao Yi took the opportunity to wrap his arm around her waist and sit close to her, saying, "Fat thief. Let's go for a spin!"
Charcoal's flying speed wasn't slow. With a whoosh, it shot out with the two of them …
Five years later, inside the Eastern District Governor's Manor Paradise, Miao Yi sat cross-legged on his bed. The Third Grade Golden Lotus on his forehead blossomed with a mystical light, and another petal slowly bloomed. Miao Yi slowly retracted his cultivation and put away the blood pill in his palm. With a wave of his hand, a hundred Basic Immortal Pills floated around his body.
Forming an incantation gesture with his hands, the energy around his body surged and instantly formed a protective transcendence energy barrier around himself and the one hundred Basic Immortal Pills. Then, with a flick of his finger, one of the Basic Immortal Pills exploded with a 'pop', instantly transforming into a dense and majestic spiritual energy that filled the protective transcendence energy barrier and enveloped Miao Yi's entire body. With Miao Yi's current cultivation, he could easily seal off this spiritual energy and prevent it from leaking out.
Soon, the dense spiritual energy turned into a faint mist and was absorbed into Miao Yi's body at a visible rate. Then, with another flick of his finger, another Basic Immortal Pill exploded, and he repeated the process.
After Miao Yi absorbed all one hundred Basic Immortal Pills, the protective transcendence energy barrier around his body instantly retracted. He pinched his fingers together and calculated the cycle of his body's circulation. Based on the time it would take him to refine one hundred Basic Immortal Pills, he calculated the number of pills he would need to refine every day. He shook his head slightly and opened his eyes.
Right now, he was only refining three hundred and ten Basic Immortal Pills a day, which was only ten pills faster than when he was at the Third Grade of Golden Lotus. To advance from the Fourth Grade to the Fifth Grade, he would need about fourteen million Basic Immortal Pills. In other words, he would need more than a hundred and twenty years to break through to the Fifth Grade.
This speed wasn't slow, but Miao Yi felt it wasn't as fast as when he was absorbing the Flames of Yin and Yang on the Two Pole Stars …
A few days later, Miao Yi entered the City Guard Palace to meet Madam Biyue.
"Going out again? The last time you left, you didn't return for more than a year. I haven't settled the score with you yet! " Lady Biyue, who was lazily lying on the bed, got up and walked out. Miao Yi followed beside her. Lady Biyue frowned and said, "Niu Youde. You are the Great Commander of Celestial Avenue, your responsibility is to guard Celestial Avenue, not to run around for no reason. Otherwise, if something happens to Celestial Avenue, you will not be able to bear the responsibility. The Heavenly Court had its own rules. Don't leave your post for no reason! "
Beside her, Miao Yi cupped his fists and said, "I won't hide anything from you, Madam. It's really boring to stay in this Celestial Street for too long. My knowledge is shallow, so I wish to take a look around."
Lady Biyue glanced back at him. "I still think it's boring to stay in Celestial Street. Do I have to wander around too?"
Miao Yi asked, "Why don't I accompany Madam out for a stroll?"
Lady Biyue snorted, "You're not here, and I'm not here either. Both of you left your post without permission. If something really happens in Sky Street, there won't be anyone to take care of it. Do you not want to stay in the Heavenly Court anymore? I say, if you have the time to wander around, why don't you spend it improving your own cultivation? "
It would be troublesome if she wasn't allowed to leave! Just as Miao Yi was pondering what excuse to use, Lady Biyue suddenly asked, "Where do you plan to go? Is there any fun place? "
Miao Yi was startled. It seemed this woman was tempted. He hurriedly said, "I want to go to the Immortal Planet. I don't know if it will be fun or not."
"Immortal Planet?" Lady Biyue turned around in surprise and asked, "The Immortal Planet where the ten major palaces are located?"
"Yes!"
"Why would you want to go there?"
"I just want to broaden my horizons. Have you been there before, Madam?"
"No. The Heavenly Court's territory is so vast. Who can go to every place?" Lady Biyue shook her head and frowned. "I advise you not to go. The people of the ten major palaces are not too willing to interact with the people of the Heavenly Court. Even if you go, they might not welcome you. Why go looking for trouble? "
Miao Yi said disapprovingly, "I am an official of the Heavenly Court. Everything under the heavens belongs to me. Do you think they will chase me away by force if I go there? "
Lady Biyue said, "You don't say. If they really want to chase you away, you can't do anything to them with your status in the Heavenly Court."
Miao Yi was shocked. "That can't be! Do they dare to go against the Heavenly Court? "
"You shouldn't know the secrets behind this. Just don't go." Lady Biyue shook her head. She obviously didn't want to say more. She reached out and picked a flower. She sniffed it and walked into the garden.
Miao Yi's eyes flashed. This woman's husband was one of the seventy-two Marquises of the Heavenly Court. She probably knew some secrets that others didn't. He smiled and said, "Madam has the Marquis behind her. Are you afraid of a mere Traversing Celestial Palace?"
Lady Biyue walked into the pavilion and sat down. Soon, a servant girl came to set down tea. After pouring a cup of tea, Lady Biyue waved her hand and dismissed the servant girl. She said, "It's not that I'm afraid. I just don't want to cause unnecessary trouble."
Miao Yi had a strange look on his face. "It's just a trip to the Immortal Planet. What trouble can it cause?"
"Looks like you really want to know!" Lady Biyue rolled her eyes at him. She suddenly switched to transmitting her voice. "The ten palaces were originally on good terms with Master White. Almost everyone related to Master White was turned into traitors. Don't you think it will cause trouble?"
So that's how it is! But if that was the case, Miao Yi was truly puzzled. "Aren't the ten great palaces all fine and dandy now? I don't see the Heavenly Court calling them traitors! "
After Bi Yue gestured for him to sit down, she said, "When the world was determined, the situation was turbulent, and there were endless killings everywhere. Countless powerful figures died. Celestial Ruler and Buddhist Lord acted according to the plan. First, they suddenly captured the Demon Lord with lightning speed, and then they attacked Lord White. The ten palaces that were originally on good terms with Lord White saw that Lord White was weak, so they turned to Celestial Ruler and Buddhist Lord. Under the joint forces of the heroes, Lord White was finally suppressed in the Demon Subduing Pagoda! If the Palace Lords of the ten palaces hadn't betrayed them and ambushed them from behind, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to capture Master White! "
Miao Yi was shocked. He recalled what Sect Master Jade Spirit had told him about Master Golden Light. He asked, "I heard that there is a Demon Subduing Pagoda in the spiritual mountain of the Western Paradise Realm. I heard that Master White and the Demon Lord are imprisoned in that pagoda. Is it the Demon Subduing Pagoda that Madam mentioned?"
Lady Biyue narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Looks like you're not completely clueless after all."
Miao Yi modestly waved his hand and said, "I also heard that Master White and the Demon Lord aren't dead. They're just imprisoned in the pagoda. Is that true?"
Lady Biyue's eyes flickered. She obviously didn't mean what she said. "How would I know if they're dead or not? It's none of our business whether they're dead or alive. Why are you worrying so much? "
Miao Yi immediately knew that she was hiding something. "I'm just curious. If they're not dead, why didn't they kill Master White and the Demon Lord since they've already captured them? Aren't they afraid of leaving a threat behind?"
"Perhaps it's because they're brothers. After all, Master White and the two Divine Lords are sworn brothers." Lady Biyue casually brushed him off and changed the topic. "The Ten Divine Palaces betrayed Master White. After the incident, the Celestial Emperor bestowed the ten planets to the Ten Elemental Palace and made them their private lands. Why would you want to go there?"
Miao Yi replied, "It's precisely because it's a place that ordinary people rarely visit that I should go and take a look."
Lady Biyue raised her brows. "Don't you understand? The Ten Elemental Palace has made such a huge contribution, yet the Celestial Emperor excluded them from the ranks of Immortals and only bestowed them with ten planets. He even forbade them from doing business in the Celestial Avenue. This is tantamount to preventing the Ten Elemental Palace from growing too powerful. He's basically burning the bridge after crossing it. Because of this, the Ten Elemental Palace have always kept their distance from the Celestial Court.
Miao Yi was silent, but deep down, he was thinking about something else. What was the Celestial Emperor up to? If he wanted to burn the bridge after crossing it, then he would have offended the Ten Elemental Palace anyway. Why would he keep them around?
He snuck a glance at the silent Lady Biyue. He knew that this woman must have learned some secrets from the Marquis of Heavenly Origin. She just didn't want to talk about it. Since she had made up her mind not to talk about it, there was nothing he could do as a subordinate to force her to talk about it. If he tried to get to the bottom of it, it would only arouse suspicion. He smiled and said, "Then I'll go somewhere else."
Lady Biyue glanced at him. "Where are you going? Take me with you. "
"..." Miao Yi was speechless. 'You've already put it this way. If I bring you along and you see the Traversing Celestial Palace, won't I be exposed?'
Lady Biyue continued, "I see that you're still determined to go and take a look, aren't you?"
Miao Yi muttered to himself, 'If I knew there was such a thing behind the Ten Elemental Palace, then I shouldn't have said that I'm going to the Traversing Celestial Palace. Now that I'm trying to cover it up, I'm afraid she won't believe me.' He forced a smile and said, "I heard that the scenery of the Traversing Celestial Palace is incomparably ethereal. It's the reason why it's called 'Celestial'. It's one of the best in the world. It would be a pity if I don't go and take a look at such a beautiful scenery. This is also the reason why I want to go."
Lady Biyue said, "If someone sees through your identity and something happens, won't I be implicated if I let you go?"
Miao Yi took advantage of the shady deal they made behind her back and said shamelessly, "No! At most, they won't welcome me and kick me out. I don't believe that the Traversing Celestial Palace would dare to act against the people of the Celestial Court. Besides, I will make some preparations. I'm sure nothing will happen. "
Lady Biyue said, "What you said makes sense. The scenery of the Immortal Planet is famous throughout the world. I'm also a little tempted. If you can arrange it properly, I'll go with you!"
