The news of Dynasty's imperial censor entering Viscount Hongshan's residence soon spread among the people around. However, most of them thought that Dynasty had started to investigate and collect evidence regarding the attack on the nobles.
Soon, they saw Viscount Hongshan and Imperial Censor Mi Baiji board a carriage and leave.
Viscount Hongshan's residence was located in a remote area of the eastern city district. Yi Tian found this place to be very convenient. There weren't many imperial nobles here, so as long as he kept the door closed and didn't go out, the risk of being exposed would be greatly reduced.
Now that Mi Baiji was helping him, the situation would develop much more easily than he had imagined.
Shaoqing and Mi Baiji arrived at the Floating Immortal Restaurant where the nobles gathered. Many of them recognized Shaoqing's appearance, but after seeing him, they all pointed at him. If it wasn't for the imperial censor being present, their words would have been very unpleasant. After all, Viscount Hongshan was still a representative of the imperial court. Being attacked for no reason was a loss of face for all the nobles.
Yi Tian didn't think much of it. He looked at the nobles and shook his head. Most of them had inherited the good fortune of their ancestors. It was a pity that there weren't many of them who were truly strong.
Even if cultivators of the same level in the Spirit Realm had similar cultivation bases, their Dao hearts would be vastly different even if their cultivation bases were almost the same. Although Asura Realm was the head of the Nine Upper Spiritual Realms, it was only limited to high-grade cultivators.
Severed Soul Stage cultivators were on par with Devil Realm cultivators. Deity Transformation Stage cultivators were at most on par with Spirit Realm cultivators. As for the Nascent Soul cultivators below them, they were even worse off. On the other hand, even if the cultivators from the other realms were slightly inferior to the Asura Realm's top cultivators, they had an endless stream of successors, and their strength was faintly overwhelming.
Presumably, Luo Ziyan had traveled to the other realms and discovered that the imperial family was sick. If this continued, it wouldn't be easy for Asura Realm's imperial family to maintain their position as the head of the Nine Upper Spiritual Realms.
Soon, the two arrived at the Elegant Rear Courtyard. Mi Baiji seemed to have blocked off the surrounding people. Then, he hurriedly entered the courtyard and raised his hand to open a soundproof barrier. He then turned around and said, "The noble lady is inside. My Emperor, don't let her wait for too long. With this humble subject keeping watch outside, nothing will go wrong.
Yi Tian nodded and said, "That's good. You wait here, I'll inform you if there's any news."
After saying that, he strode towards the side room in the courtyard. When he reached the door and pushed it open, he saw that there was a ripple of light that isolated him from the outside world.
Through this layer of hazy light, he could see a figure sitting at a table in the room. Yi Tian smiled. It seemed that this person wanted to test his strength. With that thought in mind, he extended his hand and summoned a black demonic flame to envelop his entire body. Then, as if he had entered an uninhabited realm, he directly broke through the barrier of light and entered the interior.
After entering, he saw a person wearing a cloak that covered his head and face sitting at the table, sizing him up. Yi Tian immediately activated the mark on his forehead. Suddenly, the same mark on the other party's forehead resonated with him.
Shaoqing saw the cloak slowly being removed, revealing the appearance of a devastatingly beautiful woman. It was Luo Ziyan whom he had met in the Old Clear Wind City. At this moment, the golden mark on her forehead was shining. It seemed that she had sensed his situation.
"Eh, I didn't expect that you wouldn't dare to show your true appearance after meeting for so many years. Yi Tian, you are still so cautious," Luo Ziyan said with a smile.
"Is that so? I'm just forced by the situation." After saying that, Yi Tian's face twisted and changed back to his original appearance. He walked forward and found an empty seat on the opposite side of the table. Then, he wasn't in a hurry to reply. He just used his divine sense to scan Luo Ziyan's body.
He didn't expect that after not seeing her for so many years, her strength back then was far greater than his. But now, she was only at the Spirit Severing Intermediate Stage. Yi Tian shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that in just four or five hundred years, my strength is already above yours. It seems that you have been tied down by worldly affairs all these years and have encountered many obstacles in your cultivation."
Hearing this, Luo Ziyan's face darkened. Then, she revealed a somewhat resentful expression and said, "You only care about your own freedom. How would you know the pain of being a master?"
"Yes, yes, I know that you have no choice. There are many troublesome matters around you, so you are tired of dealing with them and your cultivation has dropped." Yi Tian knew that he had said something wrong, so he could only comfort her.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziyan burst out laughing. Then, she said with a worried expression, "Actually, my cultivation level can already be considered as the top in the Asura World. I didn't expect that I would still lose to you. No wonder Aunt Yun once said that the strength of ascended cultivators is extraordinary. The most terrifying thing is their unlimited potential and cultivation speed. "
"Oh, did Yun Lin mention my situation?" Yi Tian asked.
"En, when she saw you a hundred years ago, she was already deeply shocked." Luo Ziyan described with exultation, "Do you know that when we met in the Old Clear Wind City, I mentioned to Aunt Yun that there was a cultivator from the Taiqing Pavilion who helped me?"
"That's all in the past. Did Yun Lin secretly investigate me back then?" Yi Tian was shocked and hurriedly asked.
"Of course." Luo Ziyan said proudly, "I understand Aunt Yun's personality. Anyone who has interacted with me will sit down and investigate. It's just that you were only in the early stage of the Divine Transformation Realm at that time, so you just ended it hastily. "
Fortunately, Yi Tian was slightly gratified. Fortunately, Yun Lin didn't investigate him deeply back then. Otherwise, the things he did in the Taiqing Pavilion would most likely be exposed. Some of the things that he killed his fellow disciples and the high-level cultivators of the other two sects would naturally be exposed. At that time, it would definitely not be a good thing for Yun Lin to use it to threaten him.
"It seems that what really caught Yun Lin's attention was the battle with Luo Yao a hundred years ago." Yi Tian probed.
"The Asura Sect was originally a hidden force that Aunt Yun let out. Now that they've become big, they naturally attracted all kinds of trouble. It's naturally best to have you help them out," Luo Ziyan replied.
"Does Yun Lin know my true identity?" Yi Tian asked with a serious expression.
"She only knows that you're a cultivator from the Spiritual Realm and that you've cultivated the secret techniques of the Buddhist Sect," Luo Ziyan explained.
"There's one thing that I've been thinking about for a long time." Yi Tian said and pointed at the door.
"Are you talking about Mi Baiji?" Luo Ziyan understood and said, "The imperial censor naturally has his own unique cultivation method. Although he's not strong, he has a special way of sensing the Asura Sect's cultivation method."
"I see. Then, do you think you can trust her a hundred percent? After all, cultivators like Yun Lin have their own selfish motives. "Yi Tian kindly reminded.
A trace of gloominess flashed through Luo Ziyan's eyes, but she still replied, "Aunt Yun treats me like her own daughter and has taught me cultivation since I was young. Naturally, I have full trust in her."
"That's good." Yi Tian didn't say anything else. In any case, he had already seen Luo Ziyan's reaction.
