Miao Yi didn't know what the two Heavenly Kings were thinking. Right now, he was anxious to find out more about the Primordial Wastelands.
He had no choice. He knew that it was impossible for him to avoid punishment this time. Initially, he was thinking of gathering the remaining forces of the Six Paths to kidnap him along the way so that he wouldn't be able to stay in the Heavenly Court anymore. However, he had truly offended the Ying Clan in a moment of recklessness. Furthermore, Zhan Ruyi becoming a Heavenly Consort had given him quite a bit of pressure.
Others didn't know, but he had his own troubles. Zhan Ruyi had knelt down to him and even stripped his upper body in front of him. He had seen things that he shouldn't have seen. Zhan Ruyi might really hate himself now. When he thought about how he had seen the Celestial Emperor's woman naked, he couldn't help but feel a little worried. Indeed, he planned to leave the Heavenly Court. In truth, he was a little reluctant to face Zhan Ruyi again.
However, given the current situation, the Heavenly Court wouldn't allow him to take his own people away. He couldn't leave Yan Xiu and the others behind either. More importantly, he didn't understand the situation. Why did they have to send him to the Primordial Wastelands? With the Heavenly Court setting up a trap in the phantom market as an example, he began to suspect that the Heavenly Court had some ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would they go through so much trouble? Right now, he could only take it one step at a time and think of a way to survive in the Primordial Wastelands.
He quickly gathered the core members of the Black Dragon Agency and handed over the responsibility in front of Wen Ze.
After the handover was complete, he thought about it again and again. He still needed to find out more about an ancient place like the Primordial Wastelands. The first person he thought of was Jin Man, who was currently in the Purgatory Grounds.
After listening to the current situation, Jin Man told him about the Primordial Wastelands.
The Primordial Wastelands had existed since time immemorial. It was a special space formed after the galaxy collapsed for some unknown reason. It was then occupied by the Dragon and Phoenix Clans. The two clans were cut off from the rest of the world and didn't want to get involved in the fights between cultivators. However, cultivators kept coming to harass them over the years. They all wanted to obtain a dragon or phoenix as a divine beast mount. Some even wanted to use the unique environment of the Primordial Wastelands to cultivate.
However, since the two clans were able to dominate a region, they were naturally not to be trifled with. Since ancient times, it was unknown how many cultivators had lost their lives there. In addition, the Dragon Clan had eight Dragon Gods and the Phoenix Clan had two Empyrean Maidens. The eight Dragon Gods and the two Empyrean Maidens were the elders of the two clans. He was also the guardian deity of the two races. No one in the world could rival him, and he protected the peace of the 'Dragon Cave and Phoenix Nest'.
More importantly, the Ancient Desolate Land was born with a special environment that protected the two races. The sky was round and the earth was square, unlike the planets in the starry sky which were all spherical. However, the area was very vast, and it was rumored that no one could reach the end.
For cultivators. The most special effect of the environment was that other than ghost cultivators, other cultivators would lose the ability to fly after entering that place. However, dragons and phoenixes could freely control that space, so when facing the attacks of the dragons and phoenixes, the cultivators would naturally be at a disadvantage. There was also an endless amount of malevolent aura, killing intent, resentment, and death aura that came from an unknown source. The density of the aura had reached a stage where the evil aura had gained sentience. The evil spirits were naturally afraid of dragons and phoenixes, but they did not fear ordinary cultivators. They would attack cultivators who trespassed into the Ancient Desolate Land. This was also one of the reasons why it was difficult for cultivators to establish a foothold in the Ancient Desolate Land.
However, there was one type of cultivator who was an exception. That was those who cultivated fire-type cultivation arts. Their flames had a suppressive effect on the evil spirits.
Hearing this, Miao Yi was a little taken aback. 'Didn't I cultivate a fire-type cultivation art?'
This thought only flashed past his mind as he continued to listen to Jin Man's narration.
After that, a huge incident occurred in the Ancient Desolate Land. An extraordinary person appeared in the outside world. It was none other than the Demonic Monk Nan Bo. The Demonic Monk Nan Bo looked down on the world and regarded himself as a god. He could not accept that anyone could be stronger than him. Thus, he trespassed into the Ancient Desolate Land. Therefore, the Desolate Ancient Land of Death, which no one had ever been able to conquer, was massacred by the demonic monk Nan Bo. The eight guardian Dragon Gods of the Dragon Clan and the two guardian Mystic Ladies of the Phoenix Clan were all killed by the demonic monk Nan Bo. The Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan could be said to have suffered a great calamity, and the survivors all fled the Desolate Ancient Land of Death. Only after the Six Sages subdued the demonic monk Nan Bo did the dragon and phoenix return to their homeland. However, after Lord Buddha and Lord Qing took over the world, they wanted to unify the world and lead a new order. The two of them did not want new Guardian Dragon God and Guardian Mysterious Lady to appear in the Desolate Ancient Wastelands. They opposed the Heavenly Court and wanted to wipe out the Desolate Ancient Wastelands.
Almost all the experts of the Dragon and Phoenix Clans had been slaughtered by the demonic monk Nan Bo. They could not withstand the attacks of Master Qing and the Buddhist Lord. In order to avoid the fate of extinction, the two clans submitted to Master Qing and the Buddhist Lord. The price for their survival was that the two clans had to give up on the Desolate Ancient Land where they had lived for generations. In other words, the source of their revival was cut off. This was because only the unique environment of the Desolate Ancient Land could create new Guardian Dragon Gods and Guardian Mysterious Ladies. The outside environment was not suitable for their cultivation.
Now, it was impossible for the two clans to return. Master Qing and the Buddhist Lord would not give them another chance to revive. They sent people to seal off the entrance to the Desolate Ancient Land.
After listening to everything, Miao Yi could not help but sigh. He did not expect that the dragons and phoenixes that were under the control of the Heavenly Court would actually suffer such a tragic fate.
After pondering for a while, Miao Yi asked, "What are the chances of someone who cultivates a fire-type cultivation art surviving in the Desolate Ancient Land?"
Jin Man: "It should be quite high. Now that there are no dragons and phoenixes inside, as long as one can use a fire-type cultivation art to resist the invasion of the evil aura and not go too deep to provoke those vengeful spirits, they should be fine."
In fact, she was not too sure about the current situation in the Desolate Ancient Land. After all, before the order of the Heavenly Court was established, it was already sealed in hell. However, the spy in the Heavenly Court seemed to know that Miao Yi would come to ask her about it and had already told her to cooperate.
When Miao Yi heard what Jin Man said, he was relieved. Logically, Jin Man had no reason to lie to him about this. Since even Jin Man felt that it was not too dangerous, and Defeating Armies had asked Wen Ze to pass on the message, Miao Yi was more confident. He thought about it as going there to cultivate and gain some experience. After all, not everyone had the chance to go to the Desolate Ancient Land.
"Imprisoned in the Desolate Ancient Land for a thousand years …"
On Heaven's Origin Planet, Fu Qing, who was pacing back and forth in the garden of the Guardian Palace, muttered to himself after hearing the news. He was dumbfounded.
Beside him, Qing Feng sighed, "Lord Fifth is really bold. He actually dared to cause trouble during the Celestial Emperor's welcoming ceremony. He's already lucky that he didn't get executed on the spot."
'Hall of Heroes, Huang Fujun who heard the news?' Y immediately contacted Miao Yi to confirm the situation.
With the existence of the Star Bell, the news quickly spread throughout the world within a day or two. Of course, it was also because Miao Yi was a famous person. Although the punishment of being imprisoned in the Desolate Ancient Land was a little strange, everyone was more concerned about Miao Yi's actions during Lord Qing's wedding ceremony. The latter's fame overshadowed the former.
In the greater world, Miao Yi's strength had yet to reach that level, but his reputation had spread far and wide. He had just been promoted in the phantom market, and then immediately made a mistake and was imprisoned in the forbidden land. It was quite a rollercoaster ride.
Ji Meili and the others quickly contacted Miao Yi to express their concern. They were all complaining about how Miao Yi could have caused such a mess.
'Idiot! How could he do such a thing! ' Yun Zhiqiu was furious. She was so angry that she gave Miao Yi a good scolding.
Among all his wives, only she, as his first wife, was on equal footing with Miao Yi. She had the right to scold him like that. After scolding him, she found it a little strange. After sleeping in the same bed for so many years, she knew her husband all too well. Although he often did impulsive things, no one provoked him in that kind of situation. Why would he refuse a reward and scold them? He should be looking forward to more rewards!
Under her repeated questioning, Miao Yi finally told her the secret that he had never told anyone. In fact, he also wanted to find someone to talk to. Otherwise, he would feel terrible holding it in.
"How could this be …"
Sitting in the pavilion in the Blessed Paradise, Yun Zhiqiu was stunned with the Star Bell in her hand. She never expected Zhan Ruyi to beg Miao Yi in such a manner. The granddaughter of a Heavenly King was actually so humble. She never expected Zhan Ruyi to be interested in Miao Yi. Weren't they enemies? Who would have thought that?
"Sigh!" Yun Zhiqiu sighed. She couldn't bear to scold that man who was sometimes smart and sometimes muddle-headed. She could feel the intensity of his guilt.
She knew Miao Yi all too well. Her husband was a man who would rather betray others than betray his heart.
After listening to the whole story, she knew where the problem lay. At first, Zhan Ruyi begged him like that, but he remained unmoved. The problem came later, when he found out about Zhan Ruyi's feelings and found out that she was willing to give up such a high position and wealth for him. A proud daughter of heaven begged him so humbly that she even let go of her last shred of dignity. Yet, he still sent a large army to surround her and completely cut off her escape route. It was as if he had personally sent Zhan Ruyi into the harem of the Heavenly Court.
That man was filled with guilt. How could he accept any more rewards?
Yun Zhiqiu was both angry and heartbroken at Miao Yi's impulsive behavior. In any case, she couldn't blame him anymore …
Three days passed by quickly. The Left Supervisory Guard sent someone to personally escort Miao Yi. To put it simply, they were all brothers in the same system, so they were all on the same side. What's more, Miao Yi was personally protected by the Lord Commander, so they wouldn't make things difficult for him. Instead, it was more like escorting him.
In the Imperial Garden, in Zhan Ping's courtyard, on top of a loft with a vast view, a tall and slender woman dressed in a rainbow-colored gown stood silently. She wore a phoenix coronet on her head, and her beauty was dazzling. Her attire was indescribably noble, but her expression was cold and aloof. This was Zhan Ruyi, who would be leaving the palace to meet her parents in three days.
At the same time, she also brought along the Zhan family's rewards from the Celestial Emperor. Zhan Ping was promoted by one rank, and his rank was now equal to that of a Star Sovereign, becoming a Five-Section General. Ying Luohuan's Imperial Mandate was also promoted by one rank, and she was bestowed with a pile of rare treasures.
Zhan Ruyi silently gazed in the direction of the Imperial Garden's headquarters. She saw several Celestial Generals escorting a person up into the sky. She knew who was being escorted away, and also knew where he was being escorted to — a place where there was almost no chance of survival.
She had also heard the reason why he was being escorted away. That person had done an extremely foolish thing, offending the heavens during his own palace entrance ceremony. If it weren't for the Left Supervisory Guard's Commander Pojun's protection, he would already be dead.
No one knew what she was thinking as she silently stood there.
Perhaps there was only one person who knew. Zhan Ping was also standing in the middle of the pavilion, looking at his daughter silently with his hands behind his back.
Only he knew that Miao Yi's reckless actions during the wedding ceremony had deeply hurt his daughter. It would have been better if Miao Yi hadn't done it, but his actions had hurt his daughter even more. It was a wound that would never be erased, because Miao Yi had done it a little too late. It was too late!
PS: I've caught a cold and am not feeling well. I wish to rest early. Let's call it a day.
