Free Web NovelChapter 842: 842: Shen Jueyang and the Qilins
Roaming around the middle ring region, he bumps on the children from the Regal Lei Clan.
The first one to notice the presence of the Immortal Sun Emperor was Huan Xun and Dian Yin.
"Who goes there?!" Dian Yin shouted as he was about to attack, only for Huan Xun grabbed the back of his collar and held him up like a naughty kitten.
Huan Xun reprimands, "Can’t you hold back your temper for a bit!? How many people are you going to offend outside?! You’ve offended the princess if not because you are surnamed Dian she would have killed you on the spot."
"That’s not my intention. I was just teasing Shan Du. Who told him to suddenly have a beautiful woman by his side. I just felt a bit jealous and said the wrong thing," said Dian Yin.
Huan Xun stood before the edge of the barrier but didn’t come out. As for Shen Jueyang, he is observing the barrier which is a smaller version of the world array he had left before. He immediately realized that the one who made this formation is none other than Yue Xuexia. Well she securing the protection of the people from Lei Clan is understandable. Half of her blood comes from this clan after all.
The first thing Huan Xun noticed was the sun and moon jade token hanging on the waist of Shen Jueyang and was shocked. He immediately lowered his gaze not meeting the man’s eyes as he had some guesses who this exalted person might be.
"This senior, we are from the Regal Lei Clan who come here to train? Is there something we can help you with?" Huan Xun asked nervously.
Chuckles~
The Immortal Sun Emperor noticed the nervousness and fear coming from Huan Xun and clearly this young man is much clever than he thought.
"You recognize me?" Shen Jueyang asked.
Huan Xun was covered in cold sweat and kneel on his knees.
"This junior is... This junior is..."
"Alright. Calm down. I am not here for pressure. I just want to know where Xue’er had gone to," Shen Jueyang. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Huan Xun and Dian Yin immediately understood who this man was looking for. As if their fear left their mind, they stare warily at Shen Jueyang in front of them. No matter who it was, no one is allowed to betray their own clansmen, especially not their princes and princesses.
"We don’t know who the senior is looking for?"
"Even if you ask us, we will not tell you anything?!"
The smile of Shen Jueyang’s face faded making Huan Xun and Dian Yin nervous yet they never thought of backing down then they saw the handsome young man in front of them sighed.
"How come you’re as protective as your princess? Forget it. I will not make it hard for you," said Shen Jueyang. "Look here. I am not her enemy and never would be one."
The Immortal Sun Emperor pulled the personal moon jade token with Yue Xuexia’s moon, snow, lotus and lightning insignia from his chest inner robes which is the most secured location. Huan Xun and Dian Yin’s eyes widened. Personal jade tokens were usually given to one’s family; even the token Yue Xuexia gave to the Hidden Tan Clan only had moon and lotus insignia. The one in Shen Jueyang’s hand is a personal one. It had all the elements the original owner possessed and even a wisp of her soul.
The moment this jade token appears, Huan Xun and Dian Yin instantly felt the similar aura as the Moon Goddess and the Eldest Princess of their Regal Lei Clan. They immediately kneeled before this token.
"We acknowledge the Princess’s Token!"
Shen Jueyang once again hid Yue Xuexia’s token in his robes and placed his hand on his back.
"Can you tell me now where Xue’er has gone to?" asked the Immortal Sun Emperor.
Huan Xun responded much more respectfully than the politeness that comes from fear. Instead this respect comes from the heart, which means this clan members at least acknowledge him worthy to approach their princess. Thinking how protective this clan is, Shen Jueyang didn’t know whether to laugh or get angry.
"Answering to the Senior, the Princess had headed to the core region of the ruins," said Huan Xun.
Dian Yin said, "It’s the area within the inner ring region. The Senior must first be able to enter the Inner ring region. However that place only allowed those of the direct descendant of the Lightning god and those who had received their blessings. If seniors have the blessing from the Princess you should be able to enter that place. But..."
"But what?" Shen Jueyang asked.
Huan Xun said, "The core region is something only those with lightning god physique, pure bloodline and lightning affinity can enter. Senior, it might not be possible for you to enter. Moreover, the legend says that the Primordial Lightning God’s wisp soul sleeps in there so..."
"Don’t worry. I will not enter unless something happens to Xue’er. Can you show me the way to the entrance of the Inner ring region?" Shen Jueyang said.
Huan Xun nodded his head and said to Dian Yin, "A’Yin, stay here and watch over the children. I will be back as soon as I show the Senior the gates to the inner ring region."
"Alright. Go ahead," said Dian Yin.
With Huan Xun leading the way, he had brought the Immortal Sun Emperor to the gates of the Inner ring region in which is protected by two qilin statues.
"Senior, I can only accompany you this way. Once you stand at the gates those two qilins will come to life and attack. I cannot do anything about them. Please excuse this junior," said Huan Xun.
Shen Jueyang said, "Alright. You can go back."
It was only after Huan Xun had taken his leave that Shen Jueyang had approached the towering gates before him.

Standing in front of the gates guarded by two Qilins, the Immortal Sun Emperor stares at the two guardians of the door. Under his gaze, the two qilins had grown larger and come to life. Unlike before when Yue Xuexia and the descendants of the Lightning God were facing them. This time the Qilin had a murderous aura around them.
{Those who don’t have special physique, not a descendant of the Lightning God or have any blessing of a lightning god’s descendant cannot enter this gates.}
{Pass through by force and we shall eliminate you.}
The Immortal Sun Emperor said, "So as long as I have a special physique or have a blessing from any descendants of the Lightning God, this emperor can enter?"
{Emperor? You call yourself an emperor?! You are an Emperor Realm cultivator!?}
{Impossible! You look so young! Stop fooling around!}
Shen Jueyang didn’t waste time and emitted an Emperor’s dominating aura which startled the two qilins as they were suddenly indeed suppressed.
{This is... An Emperor’s Coercion?!}
{Brother, this kid is truly an Emperor realm cultivator!?}
{Shut up for a moment!}
The eldest of the two qilins observed the Immortal Sun Emperor and was shocked with its discoveries. Supreme Yang Physique? Emperor realm cultivation? Moreover, there is a lightning insignia flickering in this man’s forehead. That’s a high-grade blessing and from a direct descendant of the Lightning God.
{Open the gates. He will enter.}
{A-Alright!}
The Immortal Sun Emperor, Shen Jueyang, looked at the opened gates leading to the inner ring region of the Lightning Ancient God’s Abode with confusion in his eyes. He noticed that these two Qilin were at the Emperor realm stage if they fought, it would at most him winning by a small margin yet for some reason, they had seen something in him which allowed him to pass. Bewildered by that fact, he can only ask the two qilins about this reason.
Shen Jueyang asked, "I would like to ask. Why did you allow me to pass this gate?"
{There is a Major Blessing of Lightning in you. Something only the direct descendants of the Lightning God can bestow.}
{Yours is a permanent one.}
"Blessing of the Lightning? No one had given me such..."
Then Shen Jueyang thought of the night Yue Xuexia’s father asked him to come see him. That was the night that he realized that Yue Xuexia’s father was not an ordinary person. Lightning Element is extremely rare, it is as rare as Moon element as only a few chosen ancient families can possess it. He has guessed Yue Xuexia’s connection to the Everlasting Moon Empire due to her being the reincarnation of his former wife, Yue Xuehua. But he couldn’t read through her father until that night the divine punishment of the lower realm world covered the sky and under the control of Uncle Yue, it was like a loyal dog. It was then that Shen Jueyang realized that Uncle Yue was the clone of that person. The Moon Emperor whose bloodline was from the Regal Lei Royal clan himself. The Lightning King and Everlasting Moon Emperor, Lei Yuya. It was also this night that Uncle Yue had approved of him standing beside his eldest daughter. He remembered Uncle Yue touching his forehead that night.
The Immortal Sun Emperor, Shen Jueyang said, "Did Uncle Yue give me his blessing? I should thank him next time."
