Creak.
The door opened. The old woman, who had been watching Wan Nujiao from afar, could not help but be stunned when she saw Wan Nujiao walk out of the room.
Although Nian Nujiao looked like she was out of her mind, her eyes were not lifeless like they used to be when she was sleepwalking. She was not happy, but rather shocked. She muttered to herself, "Could it be that the young miss's illness has worsened?"
"Granny."
Wan Nujiao suddenly called out to her, causing her to be stunned on the spot. She did not react for a long time and did not respond immediately.
"Granny, what's wrong?"
Wan Nujiao looked at her in confusion.
Only then did the old woman realize that the young miss was not sleepwalking. She was really awake. Her heart was finally at ease. She hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Young miss, I'm fine. You're awake."
Wan Nujiao looked at her reaction and remembered her strange illness. She could not help but smile bitterly. Then, she asked in a dispirited tone, "Is everything alright in the hall?"
"Uh, Xiaochun just came to report that Emperor Bai Yun is here again. He is waiting for you in the VIP room. Wan Kang went to greet him, but he ignored him and insisted on talking to you personally."
The old woman hurriedly reported.
"Oh, since he took the initiative to come to me, it means that he has made up his mind. This business deal should be settled."
Wan Nujiao took a deep breath and patted her cheeks. She forced herself to stay awake and not think about what had happened in her dream. She quickly regained her usual shrewdness and did not rush to the VIP room. She stretched lazily and asked casually, "By the way, have you sorted out the information about the lower plane that Emperor Bai Yun wants to go to?"
"It has been sorted out. Young miss, please take a look."
The old woman took out a crystal-like object from her storage ring and handed it to Wan Nujiao respectfully.
Wan Nujiao took the crystal and injected a trace of her divine sense into it. All the information about the Three Realms was clearly displayed in her mind.
The Three Realms, one of the eight wastelands of the original Heaven Wasteland Domain …
Wan Nujiao read the information about the Three Realms as she walked to the VIP room. She did not expect to be interested in the information at the beginning. Her footsteps slowed down and she continued to read.
She did not expect that the lower plane that Emperor Baiyun wanted to go to would have such a background. In the eyes of the people of the Upper Domain, the entire Heaven Wasteland Domain was a barren and bitter lower plane.
But no matter what, the Great Realm of Desolation was still one of the main planes of this lower realm. It was a world that contained a large amount of Heaven and Earth Source. Even though it had long been broken, it was still incomparable to ordinary lower planes.
This made Wan Nujiao instinctively think that since Emperor Baiyun wanted to descend to the Three Realms at all costs, it was very likely that he had found some extraordinary ruins in that plane.
"Eh, how did the three dimensions shatter? Why aren't there any records? "
Wan Nujiao quickly finished looking through the information of the three dimensions, and she noticed that even though the information seemed to be extremely orderly, she didn't notice anything unusual, and there were many places that weren't detailed. She couldn't help but frown as she asked with surprise.
The old woman followed closely behind her and replied respectfully, "This is all the information that we can find with the authority of the Tianyun Palace. For more detailed information, you will need to obtain the Master's authorization before you can look for it at the headquarters."
Wan Nujiao revealed a look of astonishment. It must be known that the information that required her father's authorization to look for was definitely classified as the highest level of top-secret information by the Tianyun Palace.
How could a plane from a lower realm, even if it contained the Origin of the world, be classified as the highest level of top-secret information by the Tianyun Palace?
However, the Tianyun Palace had extremely strict procedures when it came to the classification of secrets. It was impossible for there to be any mistakes. This made Wan Nujiao realize that she had underestimated the Three Realms. This inconspicuous lower plane must be hiding something.
It was a shocking secret.
The old woman was only a servant who was responsible for protecting Wan Nujiao. She did not understand the specific operation of the Tianyun Palace, nor did she understand what it meant to be classified information that only the Master of the Tianyun Palace had, so she did not take it seriously at all.
Although Wan Nujiao was demoted to a lower realm, she was still the person in charge of the Tianyun Palace in the Heaven Wasteland Domain. She naturally realized that the Three Realms was not simple.
She immediately stopped walking and revealed a thoughtful expression. After a while, under the puzzled gaze of the old woman, she turned around and walked to the room in the backyard. She even ordered, "Tell Wan Kang to come see me."
"But, Emperor Bai Yun is still waiting for you. What if …"
The old woman was puzzled and asked worriedly with a troubled expression.
After all, the young miss had always been a very serious person. Even when she was demoted to a lower realm, she had always been conscientious and conscientious. Unless she suddenly fell asleep, she would never delay official business. But today, she seemed to be acting a little too abnormally.
Wan Nujiao said without turning her head, "Let him wait. He is the one begging us now. There is no 'what if'."
"Yes."
The old woman finally understood. It seemed that the young miss still wanted to leave Emperor Bai Yun hanging to maximize the benefits. She had always been confident in the young miss' ability to make money. She did not hesitate to respond and turned around to inform Wan Kang to come see the young miss.
Not long after, Wan Kang rushed over and stood respectfully at the door. "Young miss, were you looking for me?"
"Come in."
Wan Nujiao's cold voice came from inside the room, but it made Wan Kang feel flattered. He said respectfully, "I dare not. I will just stay outside and listen to the young miss's teachings."
Although Wan Kang's surname was Wan, he had been a servant of the Wan family for generations and was given the surname Wan because of his loyalty.
Although his cultivation aptitude was not good, he had a good talent for business. This time, he was appointed as the deputy hall master of the Tianyun Sub-Palace in the Heaven Wasteland Domain by the young miss.
Although the lower realm was a bitter and cold place in the eyes of the people of the upper realm, it was a platform for Wan Kang to display his talents.
Not to mention, not only did he not have to be treated coldly and bullied, but he was also treated extremely politely by the big shots of the Heaven Wasteland Domain because of his status as the deputy hall master of the Tianyun Sub-Palace. He was respected everywhere he went.
He was very satisfied with his current dignified life, so he was sincerely grateful and respectful to Wan Nujiao, the young miss who had fallen from grace in the eyes of the Wan family.
"If I ask you to come in, then come in. Why do you have so much nonsense to say?"
Although Wan Nujiao was in dire straits and was usually kind, she was, after all, a proud girl in the upper realm. Naturally, she had an imposing manner that was above all living beings.
"Yes, young miss."
Seeing that Wan Nujiao was displeased, Wan Kang did not dare to waste any more time. He hurriedly pushed the door open and anxiously entered the room that no one except the young miss and the old woman was allowed to step into.
Even though Wan Kang had seen the peerless beauty of the young miss many times, when he saw Wan Nujiao sitting on the chair, holding her cheek with her wrist and slightly furrowing her brows, he could not help but feel his heart beat faster and his mouth go dry.
It was just that he knew his identity. No matter how poor the young miss of the Wan family was, she was not someone that a servant like him could dream about. He hurriedly lowered his head and said in a low voice, "Young miss, what instructions do you have for Wan Kang?"
"Let me ask you, do you have a key to the Heavenly Law Pagoda?"
Wan Nujiao did not hide anything and asked straightforwardly.
"The key to the Heavenly Law Pagoda? I have a pretty good key here, but … "
Wan Kang was taken aback when he heard this. He suddenly raised his head and said awkwardly.
Wan Nujiao frowned and said coldly, "But what?"
Wan Kang's heart trembled. He clenched his teeth and said boldly, "But the Heavenly Law Pagoda is of great importance. It is the core secret of the Tianyun Palace. Without the permission of the Chief Hall Master and the Patriarch Society, no one has the right to enter."
"Of course I know. Otherwise, why would I call you here?"
Wan Nujiao's expression did not change.
Wan Kang's face was gloomy and his heart was in a mess. Logically speaking, he was indebted to the young miss. Let alone a key, even if she asked him to commit suicide on the spot, he would not say anything.
Although he was not afraid of death, he was afraid of implicating his family. Once the matter of him entering the Heavenly Law Pagoda without the permission of the Chief Hall Master was exposed, his nine generations would inevitably be implicated.
Because the Heavenly Law Pagoda was the core existence of the Tianyun Palace. Not only did it record almost all the secrets of the universe, it also had a list of the intelligence network of the Tianyun Palace in each plane. Once it was leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, even if the young miss wanted to enter, she must have a legitimate reason. First, she must apply to the Chief Hall Master, and then get the approval of the Patriarch Society. Only then would she be qualified to enter.
But now, the young miss obviously wanted to skip the procedure and directly enter the Heavenly Law Pagoda. If this matter was exposed, it would be a capital offense. Even the Chief Hall Master could not protect her.
For a moment, the room fell into a dead silence.
Wan Nujiao did not speak and just looked at him quietly, but it brought unprecedented pressure to Wan Kang. Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he fell into a difficult struggle.
"Young miss, although I don't know why you want to enter the Heavenly Law Pagoda, there are a total of nine floors in the Heaven Wasteland Branch Hall. Young miss has one, I have one, and the other three are in the hands of Deputy Hall Master Liao, Deputy Hall Master Chen, and High Official Hong. Even if I give you the key, it will be useless."
Wan Kang thought for a moment and said.
"I know. Just give me the key in your hand. You don't have to worry about anything else."
Wan Nujiao seemed to have a plan and said in a cold tone.
Wan Kang wanted to say something but stopped. In the end, he chose to compromise. He took out a bronze box with mysterious runes and handed it to Wan Nujiao with a bitter face.
"Alright, go do what you need to do. Don't worry, I won't implicate you in this matter."
Wan Nujiao finally got what she wanted and a smile appeared on her face. She comforted him, which made him smile bitterly. He could only pray that the young miss's reckless behavior would not be leaked.
Of course, he was also very curious as to how the Eldest Miss was going to obtain the key from the other three. One should know that the Eldest Miss being appointed as the Branch Hall Master out of nowhere had made the ambitious Deputy Hall Master Liao and Deputy Hall Master Chen extremely uncomfortable. If it wasn't for the special status of the Eldest Miss, they would have secretly used some tricks to drive her away.
Even so, the two Deputy Hall Masters had always been outwardly obedient to the young miss. Although they dared not offend the young miss, they had repeatedly tried to trip her up and targeted him, the young miss's favorite, which annoyed him to no end.
The two Deputy Hall Masters did not dare to offend the young miss no matter how dissatisfied they were, but High Official Hong was a super expert sent by the headquarters to oversee the Heaven Wasteland Domain Branch Hall. Even the young miss's personal old woman was no match for him.
Moreover, High Official Hong never asked about the operation of the Heaven Wasteland Domain Branch Hall and only notified him through special means when the Heaven Wasteland Branch Hall was in danger of being exterminated.
To put it bluntly, he was in fact the Heaven Wasteland Branch Hall's highest military strength. Even the young miss, who had been the Branch Hall Master for several years, did not have the opportunity to see him. He really could not think of any way to get the key from this person.
