Seeing that she had given in, Miao Yi quickly changed his attitude. He raised his hand to stop Bluemoon, who was pretending to contact her subordinates. "Since the Palace Lord is willing to meet, let's not cause any misunderstandings. Let's discuss this after we've communicated."
Bluemoon and the others looked at him suspiciously. 'You're not really going alone, are you?'
Miao Yi gave them a look that told them he would be fine. He floated out of the crowd and followed the woman.
Bluemoon and the others didn't stop him. They also felt that Traversing Moon Palace wouldn't have the guts to do anything to General Niu. Otherwise, Traversing Moon Palace wouldn't be able to bear the consequences. They were just worried that something unexpected might happen. After all, Miao Yi's current safety greatly affected everyone.
Looking down from the sky, the palace in the lake at the peak of the mountain was not big. Only after landing could one feel the magnificence of the amethyst palace. It was reflected in the water, as though rippling in the ripples. It was refreshing and beautiful.
Miao Yi and the woman landed at the end of the bridge by the lake. The long amethyst bridge was not wide, but it was exquisite and straight, leading to the main entrance of the palace a hundred zhang away.
Walking on the immaculate and exquisite amethyst bridge, looking at the reflections of the white clouds on both sides of the lake, it was quite a sight. However, for Miao Yi to walk such a long way, she clearly did not think much of him. But judging from Miao Yi's reaction, she did not seem to care.
When they reached the bottom of the stairs outside the palace, the woman handed Miao Yi over to the woman waiting on the stairs, then turned and left.
"General Niu, please!" The woman on the stairs extended her hand to invite him in.
Miao Yi walked up the stairs and followed into the magnificent main hall. The woman said, "Please wait for a moment. I will report your arrival." She then went to the back hall alone.
Standing alone in the spacious hall, Miao Yi examined the interior of the hall. The walls were engraved with various patterns of stars and moons. The illumination from the amethyst dome ceiling gave the hall a slightly hazy purple glow, giving it a dreamy feeling. There wasn't a single soul in or out of the hall, causing the place to appear a little desolate.
After waiting for a while, the woman came back from the back hall and stood quietly at the side of the hall. After a while, a sound came from the dome, causing Miao Yi to look up. He saw a purple veil hanging down, just reaching the ground.
What was the meaning of this? Miao Yi was curious. His eyes flashed, only to see the graceful figure of a woman walking out from the back of the hall. Even with his transcendence vision, he was unable to see through the veil. Thus, he could only vaguely tell that it was a woman dressed in a long, silvery dress. He couldn't tell what it looked like. He had an urge to open his Third Eye to have a look.
The woman standing behind the veil could clearly see Miao Yi's appearance.
Miao Yi's gaze was still searching for the figure behind the veil when the other party spoke in a cold voice, "May I know why Lieutenant Niu wishes to see me?"
Her voice was gentle and pleasant to the ears, making one want to see her true appearance behind the veil even more. Miao Yi couldn't help asking, "Are you the Traversing Moon Palace Lord?"
The other party replied, "Do you really think that someone in the Traversing Moon Palace would dare to impersonate me? Do you think this empress needs to do this? "
Miao Yi thought about it and agreed. He then asked, "Does Palace Lord intend to speak to me like this?"
The other party ignored him. "Lieutenant Niu, there is no need to find fault with me. Speak, why are you looking for me?"
Damn it. What was this? Miao Yi cursed in his heart. This feeling of being able to see through someone while you couldn't make it out was very uncomfortable. He could hear the annoyance and impatience in the other party's voice, so he went back to the topic at hand. "It's like this. The Netherworld Presidential Manor has just been established, and we can't find a suitable place to station our army in the Netherworld. In the entire Netherworld, the only suitable location is within the borders of the Traversing Moon Palace. That's why I wish to discuss this with Palace Lord. Can you choose a place within the borders of the Traversing Moon Palace for the Presidential Manor to set up? "
Traversing Moon Palace Lord: "Do you have His Majesty's decree?"
Miao Yi: "It's just a small matter. There is no need to disturb His Majesty. You and I are close neighbors, and we will be living together for a long time. Why don't we sit down and discuss this?"
Traversing Moon Palace Lord: "You have no right to discuss this with me. Send the guest away! "
Miao Yi said solemnly, "Palace Lord, don't you think this is too unreasonable?"
Traversing Moon Palace Lord: "Wait until you receive His Majesty's decree."
"If the Netherworld Presidential Manor is located within the borders of the Traversing Moon Palace, we can avoid the harassment of thieves. Why not, Palace Lord? It will also prevent the troops of the Presidential Manor from coming here all the time." Miao Yi's words carried a hint of threat. What he was implying was that if you don't allow me to set up camp here, I will come and search for you whenever I have the time.
"There is no His Majesty's decree. If you dare trespass without permission again, I don't care who you are or what your status is, I will kill every single one of you that comes my way! "Traversing Moon Palace Lord threw down her words and turned to leave. She didn't take Miao Yi's threat seriously at all.
Miao Yi growled, "I dare you!"
"Send the guest away!" The Traversing Moon Palace Lord couldn't be bothered to waste her breath on him. The figure behind the veil turned around and calmly disappeared into the rear hall.
The woman standing at the side of the hall walked over and extended her hand, "Commander Niu, please return."
Miao Yi was a little speechless. This was a little different from what he had expected. Based on his previous expectations, if he were to make an appearance, no matter which family of the Ten Elemental Palaces it was, they would agree to it. Who knew that there wouldn't even be any room for negotiation? Could it be that his judgment was wrong, and the Ten Elemental Palaces didn't belong to that person?
After being escorted out of the grand hall, Miao Yi took out the Star Bell and hid it in his sleeve. He quickly contacted Zhongli Kuai of the Traversing Sky Palace and asked him to look for the Palace Lord of the Traversing Sky Palace. He was prepared to have Wen Huanzhen greet them.
However, the result was that the Traversing Sky Palace Lord refused to help. They said that they couldn't help him. No matter what Miao Yi said, it was useless.
Putting away the Star Bell in his hand, Miao Yi walked across the lake along the bridge. He turned back to look at the magnificent Traversing Moon Palace, then at the woman beside him who was sending the guest away. Rather than saying that she was sending the guest away, it would be more accurate to say that she was monitoring him. Miao Yi scoffed and flew up into the sky.
When Bluemoon and the others who were waiting in the sky saw him return, they all looked at him inquiringly, as though asking how the discussion went.
"Let's go!" Miao Yi said coldly and took the lead to fly away.
Bluemoon and the others exchanged glances. Judging from Miao Yi's expression, it seemed that the discussion had failed. They quickly followed after him.
When they reached the starry sky, Bluemoon transmitted her voice to Miao Yi, asking, "Did you see the Traversing Moon Palace Lord, Li Hua?"
Miao Yi scoffed, "She's unmoved by force or persuasion. If it weren't for the fact that the Governor's Manor has just been established, this wouldn't be the time to cause trouble. Do you think I wouldn't dare to cause trouble for her?"
Bluemoon understood. They had met, but the discussion didn't work out. She couldn't help but laugh inwardly. She knew that this matter wouldn't work out. Back then, when she instigated Miao Yi to establish a manor here, she wanted to test out Miao Yi's capabilities. Or rather, she wanted to embarrass Miao Yi so that he wouldn't always act as though he had her and Long Xin under his thumb. She consoled him, "It's understandable that the discussion didn't work out. It's fine if she wants to cause trouble. Traversing Moon Palace Lord Li Hua isn't someone to be trifled with. Even His Majesty has to give her some face."
"What do you mean?" Miao Yi turned around and asked.
Bluemoon replied, "Li Hua is the woman of His Majesty's sworn brother. Even His Majesty has to address her as his sister-in-law. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for us to cause trouble for her."
Miao Yi was stunned. "The woman of His Majesty's sworn brother? Which sworn brother? "
Bluemoon's voice transmission also became softer. "Which other sworn brother could it be? His Majesty only has two sworn brothers. One is Lord Buddha, and the other is Lord White. The one trapped in the Yao Summoning Tower is Li Hua's former man. "
Miao Yi was shocked. "The Traversing Moon Palace Lord is Lord White's woman? Isn't he the Demon Lord? "
Bluemoon replied, "A man like Lord White is unparalleled in the world. He's the brightest star in the world, and he has the charisma to attract women like moths to a flame. Even though I've never seen him flirt, how could he only have one woman in his life? I refuse to believe that he hasn't touched other women before he met the Demon Lord. I didn't know about it at first either. It was only when the army surrounded Lord White that I heard Hao Defang mention it once. Only then did I know that Li Hua and Lord White were once in a relationship. Later on, Lord White found a new lover and got to know the Demon Lord. Because of this, Li Hua has always held a grudge against Lord White. That's why Li Hua colluded with the Ten Elemental Palace to secretly betray Lord White. At the crucial moment of the battle, Li Hua ambushed Lord White and injured him. That was how His Majesty had the opportunity to trap Lord White in the Yao Summoning Tower. Otherwise, even though His Majesty would have won, Lord White was simply too powerful. The forces that could destroy Lord White might not be able to destroy him. If Lord White wanted to escape, the army wouldn't have been able to trap him. "
There was such a thing? Miao Yi asked doubtfully, "So you're saying that you participated in the siege?"
Bluemoon nodded. "It wasn't just me. Long Xin participated as well. That battle was the most brutal I've ever seen in my life. Even now, I still feel a lingering fear when I think about it. With Lord White's sword in hand, no one could stop him. Back then, he was like a madman trying to save the Demon Lord. I'm afraid more than ten thousand experts died by his hand alone. But in the end, it was all over. Not to mention, His Majesty even brought out his secret weapon, the Transcendence Breaker Bow. Lord White was a hero of his generation. He could have ruled the world, but he was ruined by a woman. What a pity. "
"Sword?" Miao Yi asked, "Is Lord White's weapon a sword?"
"Yes!" Bluemoon nodded. Seeing that Miao Yi's reaction seemed a little off, she asked, "Is there something wrong with that?"
"No." Miao Yi shook his head and asked suspiciously, "Are you sure that Lord White was trapped in the Yao Summoning Tower and didn't escape?" This was the only doubt he had. Those who knew wouldn't say anything, and those who didn't know didn't know anything.
Bluemoon replied, "That's for sure. Lord White didn't hesitate to die for the Demon Lord. Once the Demon Lord fell into His Majesty's hands and became a hostage, Lord White's fate was already sealed. However, one of Lord White's avatars managed to escape under the cover of the other nine avatars. A large number of experts chased after him, and it wasn't until several hundred years later that His Majesty officially announced to the world that Lord White's avatar had been killed. "
Miao Yi was silent for a while, thinking about something. In the end, he asked, "What does Lord White look like? Does he have white hair? "
"White hair?" Bluemoon couldn't help but laugh. "Milord, you can't possibly think that just because there's the word 'White' in the title 'Lord White', he would have white hair, right? There's no white hair at all. His black hair is as smooth as silk. "
Miao Yi asked doubtfully, "Are you sure he doesn't have white hair?"
Bluemoon replied, "Of course I'm sure. For better or for worse, I know him and have met him more than once or twice. I've even spoken to him face to face before. I can't possibly be so blind that I can't even tell the color of his hair, can I?"
Miao Yi was silent again. "You said before that Lord White has the charisma to make women fly to him like moths to a flame. Is he very good-looking?"
Bluemoon nodded emotionally. "He really is very, very good-looking. I don't know how to describe his appearance, but in short, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he is' unparalleled in his generation 'in terms of looks and temperament. His talent is also unparalleled. Those who have never seen him before will never be able to imagine his charisma. At the very least, I've never seen a man as good-looking as he is. I've never seen him wear any extravagant clothes. He's always dressed in white, with a green cloak wrapped around his shoulders. He looks noble and graceful, yet approachable. The first time I talked to him face to face, I still find it hilarious. I looked at him like an idiot, my heart racing. I can't believe I found the first awakening of love in a young girl … I'm not afraid of being laughed at, but as long as he's willing, I'm afraid I would willingly offer myself to him. However, I also know my own limitations. How could he possibly be interested in me? All I had to do was fantasize about him behind his back. I'm sure there were many women who had the same thoughts as me back then. It's just that they were too ashamed to confess their feelings to him. I'm afraid there aren't many women who have the confidence to own a man like him. They can only look at him from afar. He's too high and out of reach. Milord, I've never seen such an unparalleled person before. "
Miao Yi filtered out her infatuated words and nodded to himself when she said that he was always dressed in white, with a green cloak wrapped around his shoulders. Finally, it made sense. As for his appearance, he felt that he was indeed worthy of the term 'unparalleled in his generation'. However, there were some things that confused him. Could it be that the Traversing Moon Palace really wasn't under that person's command? Then what was up with the Traversing Moon Palace?
Miao Yi's thoughts returned to the Traversing Moon Palace, and he asked, "Since the Palace Lord of the Traversing Moon Palace had a relationship with Master White, she should be quite good-looking, right?"
"Uh …" Bluemoon was taken aback. "Milord, didn't you already see her just now?"
Miao Yi replied, "When we met, there was a veil in between us. I couldn't see her face clearly."
Bluemoon couldn't help but laugh. She'd only seen a shadow, and she was already chased out. She replied, "Of course she's good-looking. She's very beautiful. At the very least, she's prettier than that concubine of yours. However, she's not someone to be trifled with. Even Master White suffered at her hands."
Sky Palace, Starry Hall. When Gao Guan walked in, Master Qing was in the middle of a discussion with a few of his trusted subordinates.
After Gao Guan came in and bowed, he expressionlessly presented a jade archive to Master Qing. When the jade archive was in Master Qing's hands, he chuckled after reading it.
Shangguan Qing, Sima Wentian, Defeating Armies, and Wu Qu all looked at Gao Guan. They didn't know what Gao Guan had reported to Master Qing, but Master Qing couldn't help but laugh.
"Sigh. This little monkey just loves to look for excitement." Master Qing teased as he tossed the jade archive in his hand onto the table. When he saw the others looking at him in confusion, he smiled and casually explained, "Niu Youde couldn't find a good place to build his manor in the Netherworld Realm, so he actually set his sights on Traversing Moon Palace. He wanted to borrow a piece of land from Traversing Moon Palace to establish himself. I promised him that as long as he could convince Traversing Moon Palace to agree to his request, I would agree to it. Who would've thought that this little monkey would actually rush over to Traversing Moon Palace's territory."
The others glanced at each other. 'Something like this happened?'
Sima Wentian curiously cupped his fists and asked, "Your Majesty, did Li Hua agree to it?"
Master Qing chuckled, "Li Hua didn't even want to meet him and told him to scram. Guess what that silly brat did? He actually declared in front of everyone that he suspected Traversing Moon Palace of harboring a fugitive from the Celestial Court, and ordered a search of Traversing Moon Palace. "
When they heard this, the expressions on the others' faces lit up. Only Gao Guan remained expressionless.
Sima Wentian was amused, "Could it be that Li Hua beat him up?"
Master Qing chuckled, "He didn't beat him up. Instead, he put a huge label on him. Li Hua did meet him, but he probably didn't give him any face after understanding the little monkey's intentions. In any case, that brat was given the cold shoulder and returned with his tail between his legs. Now, it seems that he's ordering his men to look around and look for a new place to build his manor."
Sima Wentian nodded, "It's reasonable for him to refuse. It would be strange if Li Hua agreed to it."
Master Qing said, "Since we're talking about that brat, let's talk about something else. That brat reported to Heavenly Valley Palace and demanded ten thousand Broken Mage Bows to equip him with. Logically speaking, every hundred thousand local troops should only be equipped with a thousand Broken Mage Bows. However, that brat had a lot of excuses. He said that it was precisely because they had fewer troops and a larger territory that they needed more. Furthermore, they were stronger than the average local troops. He even said that the direct subordinates of Heavenly Valley Palace should be treated differently from the local troops. Let's hear it, should we give it or not? "
Everyone pondered for a moment. Gao Guan calmly said, "Logically speaking, his words aren't without reason. It isn't impossible to treat the direct subordinates of the Empress differently. However, that brat likes to cause trouble and his subordinates are strong. I'm afraid he won't be satisfied with such a small salary. In addition, Heavenly Valley Palace doesn't have much control over him. If we give him ten thousand Broken Mage Bows, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. Who knows what kind of trouble he will cause in the Netherworld. This official's opinion is to not give it! "
Master Qing's eyebrows jumped up. He stroked his beard and looked at the others, asking, "What do you all think?"
