Dominating Martial King

Chapter 1841: Chapter 603: Prey

Chu Xisheng hesitated repeatedly, but still let Bai Lingxi in.

At this moment, Bai Xiaozhao, who was lying on the small table beside him, suddenly raised her head and looked vigilantly ahead, at the woman walking in from outside the hall.

As it was a solemn and grand court assembly, Chu Xisheng had to wear the Pingtian Crown, and Bai Xiaozhao couldn’t continue lying on Chu Xisheng’s head, not even on his shoulder, so she moved to the side table.

Additionally, due to Chu Xisheng’s promise to her recently—to awaken her bloodline power to the greatest extent—Bai Xiaozhao had been rather sleepy lately.

However, when she sensed a dangerous aura, she immediately woke up.

Bai Xiaozhao unhesitatingly opened the blue light screen of the Divine Contract Stele.

Bai Xiaozhao: Wow, this Chan Sect’s Envoy called Bai Lingxi is so beautiful!

Chu Xisheng immediately turned his head, speechlessly looking at his spirit pet.

Chu Yunyun: Chan Sect’s Envoy?

Lu Luanti: Really? Let me see.

Chu Xisheng touched his nose, responding with a bit of helplessness: She claims to be a Chan Sect’s Envoy and says she has something to discuss with me. Let’s first listen; it won’t do any harm. By the way, Qianqian, Ruoxi, help me check if there was a master named Bai Lingxi in the previous dynasty. This woman’s strength is unfathomable and may also possess Near-God Power.

Just as Chu Xisheng sent this message, Lu Luanti had already entered the hall.

Dressed in splendid attire, she ascended the Imperial Platform and sat in a seat next to Chu Yunyun’s rear seat.

Lu Luanti is the Eastern Palace Deputy Empress, and she has her own seat above the Imperial Platform, able to participate in any grade ceremony of the Dalv Court.

However, for today’s court assembly, Lu Luanti was too lazy to attend.

She felt this matter was extremely boring, and rather than sitting here idly, it was better to spend more time cultivating.

She was being left further and further behind by Chu Xisheng, with a vast distance from both Chu Yunyun and Ween Suyi.

Lu Luanti had set her sights on a goal, to be promoted to the Second Grade within three months.

But this Chan Sect’s Envoy mentioned by Bai Xiaozhao intrigued her.

Chu Xisheng was deeply struck by Lu Luanti’s gorgeous appearance.

She was originally beautiful, with exceedingly delicate and attractive features. Now, with the complete set of the Phoenix Pearl Jade Crown, dress, and clothing, she was stunning to the extreme, with captivating charm and beauty.

How should one say it?

This girl, when not adorning herself before, kind of fit certain people’s youthful aesthetic, with clear and pure temperament, full of vitality; now dressed up, she was a touching and sympathetic beauty of elegance.

But how could she put on this entire garb in just a few breaths?

Chu Xisheng, confused, withdrew his gaze and looked down from his Imperial Platform.

Bai Lingxi happened to walk to a distance of nine zhang in front of the platform and saluted him: "Chan Sect’s Envoy Bai Lingxi, has met Your Majesty!"

Chu Xisheng once again felt astonished.

Seeing her at a distance before was not as captivating as the close view now, allowing him to better appreciate her breathtaking beauty.

However, Chu Xisheng’s face showed no expression, and his eyes even revealed a bit of Li Ze: "From what I know, isn’t the Chan Sect True Ancestor already controlled by the Lord of Deceit, Shen Bore?"

"Indeed, that is the case." Bai Lingxi nodded, her expression calm as usual: "However, saying he is controlled is somewhat inaccurate; it can only be said that the True Ancestor was deceived and misled by him."

"Oh?" Chu Xisheng’s eyes showed curiosity: "Deceived and misled? What’s the meaning of this?"

Bai Lingxi’s expression turned serious: "The Chan Sect True Ancestor was created by the Primordial Emperor Xuanhuang with Pangu’s Essence Soul as the core, fashioning an avatar. His will to protect our Divine Continent Clan has always been etched in the deepest part of his Primordial Spirit. This is the fundamental nature of the Chan Sect True Ancestor’s existence in this world, something the Lord of Deceit cannot alter.

The Lord of Deceit can only obscure and twist his perception of the outside world, guide and deceive his thoughts, but cannot make the Chan Sect True Ancestor oppose the Human Clan or do things against his core will."

Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but fall into contemplation.

What Bai Lingxi said was not without reason.

He also believed that the Chan Sect True Ancestor left by the Primordial Emperor Xuanhuang wouldn’t be so easily controlled.

"Then what is the purpose of your visit, Envoy?"

Chu Xisheng expressionlessly continued to ask: "May I ask whether you are acting on the Chan Sect True Ancestor’s orders or under the instructions of the Lord of Deceit?"

"The Chan Sect True Ancestor has already been isolated by the Lord of Deceit, and most of our Chan Sect people can no longer contact the True Ancestor."

Bai Lingxi shook her head: "However, long ago, many elders within our Chan Sect noticed something was amiss. Although we can’t help the True Ancestor escape the Lord of Deceit’s control, we have begun to band together, forming a ’Chan Sect Secret Meeting’ to oppose the Lord of Deceit."

"Oppose?" Chu Xisheng once again raised a doubt.

"As long as we do not violate the Chan Sect’s rules, the Chan Sect True Ancestor will not act against us disciples. The many Star Gods in the heavens will also not allow him to completely control our True Ancestor."

Bai Lingxi paused in her explanation: "So this time, I was sent by the order of the ’Chan Sect Secret Meeting’. All the elders in the secret meeting are aware of Your Majesty’s great repute and are greatly impressed by Your Majesty’s Annihilation of the Daluo Ant Clan and standing against the All Gods. They wish to offer Your Majesty a helping hand.

I was specifically sent to serve at Your Majesty’s presence. In addition, I have brought a thread of ’Tai Chu Mother Qi’, as well as the location of an extremely concealed ’Taisu Divine Origin’ that can be directly accessed. The Taisu Origin Qi inside can replace secret medicine to help Your Majesty advance to the First Grade."
