Free Web NovelChapter 887: Chapter 46: The Young Lady of Sky City
The four elders listened and were speechless.
This sect master truly is a capricious one.
"But the Nourishing Soul and Gathering Soul, why is He Ling stealing this?" Wei Yunshu frowned.
"He probably stole it for the remnant soul of the mighty one within him." Tianmiao said calmly. This remnant soul is an extremely dangerous presence for ordinary people. It’s better to inform the elders early so they can prepare to respond.
"What?!"
As Tianmiao’s words fell, the five people’s expressions changed drastically, exclaiming in unison.
"How did you discover this? Does the opponent know you found out, are you injured?" The Great Elder asked anxiously, voicing the concerns of the others.
"I’m fine. He probably doesn’t know I found out." Tianmiao shook her head, "This person is extremely dangerous. Remember Han Le, who failed his ascension a thousand years ago?"
"Han Le? Impossible. This person, failed ascension and still alive?" Clearly Wei Yunshu had heard of his name, exclaiming in surprise.
"Back then, this person failed his ascension, everyone thought his soul had completely dissipated, yet unexpectedly a piece of remnant soul remains." The Great Elder, familiar with this person, sighed and said.
"This person was self-willed, selfish, ruthless, and responsible for many deaths. He once boasted about defying the heavens. When the time of his ascension came, he arrogantly declared he would definitely succeed. The next moment, he was struck into nothing by heavenly thunder." Wei Yunshu explained, "I believe failing ascension is only natural. This punishment from the heavens is indeed deserved."
No, you don’t understand. My father would not let it go like this. Failing ascension is just routine, not punishment. The punishment comes afterwards. After failing, leaving a remnant soul, gave him infinite hope, only to extinguish it again. How many times this cycle would repeat, she does not know.
"If it really is this person, he is indeed very dangerous. Young City Lord, if you encounter He Ling again, avoid him, do not show any anomaly. Leave the rest to us." The Great Elder’s tone was unprecedentedly serious.
Tianmiao saw the concern in the Great Elder’s eyes and nodded. Although she can crush that remnant soul into nothing, she didn’t want the elders to worry about her, so she obediently nodded in agreement. As for the follow-up being left to them, Tianmiao was relieved and quite looking forward to it.
It’s true she’s very strong, but she would never underestimate the intelligence, means, and power of these Great World people.
The elders and Wei Yunshu immediately began organizing arrangements for this matter. Under their strong request, Tianmiao took twelve guards and went out to the city to wander and eat.
When Tianmiao walked onto the street, all the townsfolk knew.
Because over the years, the Young City Lord’s entourage has been highly recognizable.
The twelve guards were all wearing silver-white clothes, with Mystic Iron Black Swords at their waists, each one had remarkable appearances, looking quite pleasing to the eye.
"Miss, fresh wontons, just wrapped, would you like a bowl?" A merchant excitedly shouted.
"Two bowls, please." Tianmiao smiled as she walked over and sat down.
The guards sat at two other tables, each ordered a bowl. Although eating, in fact, they all paid attention to the surrounding situation and remained vigilant. Their life’s mission is to protect the Young City Lord well.
In the distance, He Ling and his junior sister had just entered White Jade City.
The junior sister complained as they walked, "The entry taxes for White Jade City are really high."
