C1274 One Step ahead of Me

Hearing the young man's words, Zhao Lianxing stopped in her tracks.    

    

She turned her head to look at him, carefully examining his expression.    

    

"Why are you looking at me like that?" The young man asked doubtfully.    

    

"Are you kidding?" Zhao Lianxing asked.    

    

"I never joke." Although the young man said this, the expression on his face made others question the authenticity of his words.    

    

After looking at Zhao Lianxing's face for a moment, he suddenly laughed, "You're agreeing that I should go to that Blacksoul City?"    

    

"Your legs are on your body. If you want to go, do you think I can stop you?" Zhao Lianxing turned around and lightly said, "As long as you don't go against the Monarch's orders, you can do whatever you want."    

    

"Alright, then I'll take it that you agree." "After all, you are the Monarch's younger sister, and this time's matter is indeed very important. I feel that it would be safer for me to take action.    

    

After all, who knows if the old monster from twenty thousand years ago truly has the ability to see through the past, present, and future of people. "    

    

"If he really can see the afterlife, then he will definitely know whether you will go or not this time." Zhao Lianxing said, "In short, if you really want to come to the Blacksoul City, I will not stop you.    

    

But you have to remember what you should do and what you shouldn't do. "    

    

"There's no need for you to remind me about this. In any case, it's not a big deal, just a few more people will die." The young man waved his hand nonchalantly, "Initially, opening the Spirit Severing Road was just a cover. The main purpose of the Monarch was still to obtain what the old monster had on his body.    

    

As long as I can obtain it successfully, even if I lose a few more people, I'll die at the hands of that old monster. If they don't have enough strength, it has nothing to do with me. "    

    

As the youth spoke, he flicked his sleeve.    

    

A crystal clear, palm-sized door flew out slowly under the cover of the light. It stopped in front of Zhao Lianxing and suddenly expanded to the size of a normal portal.    

    

The space inside the door suddenly collapsed.    

    

At first, it turned into a vortex, but soon it calmed down and turned into a vast expanse of white.    

    

"Eldest Miss, please." The young man slightly bowed and made a gesture.    

    

Zhao Lianxing walked toward the door. However, just as she was about to step into the door, she stopped again. She gently stroked the edge of the door with her fingertips and asked, "Is this something that my elder brother gifted you?"    

    

"The Emperor, lend it to me. When this matter is completed, I'll have to return it." The young man laughed, "Otherwise, how could I have crossed the void for you when I have not Transcended from the celestial mood stage yet."    

    

Zhao Lianxing lightly said, "Okay, I will wait for you there."    

    

"I'll be there shortly." The young man smiled and nodded.    

    

However, the moment Zhao Lianxing disappeared from the door, the young man opened his mouth and casually said, "I'm not used to not having a helper by my side, am I?"    

    

With a glance out of the corner of his eyes, the young man noticed that Zhao Lianxing's expression changed slightly.    

    

However, it was too late for her to back out now.    

    

The light around the door suddenly became brighter.    

    

It was like a rolling thunderstorm.    

    

In an instant, the whirlpool rose again. It was as if a huge suction force had suddenly appeared and dragged Zhao Lianxing into it.    

    

In the blink of an eye, her slender figure disappeared from within the gate.    

    

The young man waved his hand and the door immediately shrunk back to the size of a palm under the white light and flew back into the young man's sleeve.    

    

The bright moon was still hanging high in the sky. The young man stretched his waist and smacked his lips, "Northern King, heh, whoever wants to be the next one will be the next one."    

    

Then, he laid back down on the roof.    

    

At an unknown time, a small tea table appeared within his reach.    

    

On the tea table, an intoxicating aroma wafted from a wine jug.    

    

"Only wine brewed with the blood of gods and devils can be so domineering. It suits my temperament." The young man laughed, a red glint slowly appearing in his eyes.    

    

...    

    

The feeling of stepping on air only lasted for an instant, and then Zhao Lianxing felt like she was standing on solid ground.    

    

Her face was cold as she immediately turned around, wanting to ask the young man what he meant by that last sentence.    

    

However, when she turned around, the light behind her back seemed to have turned into a fist as it curled up and disappeared.    

    

The void had become no different from before.    

    

"He must have done it on purpose." Zhao Lianxing clenched her teeth with a gloomy face.    

    

However, at this time, he could no longer emphasize anything to the other party.    

    

Breathing out a deep breath, Zhao Lianxing realized that the staircase to the upper level palace was very close to where she was now.    

    

However, she couldn't move a single step.    

    

That was because the place that she had appeared in was surrounded by lifelike clay statues.    

    

These clay statues were painted with extremely strong colors. Although their appearances were all different, the expressions on their faces were all solemn and respectful.    

    

They stood there motionless, like a sea of people.    

    

Zhao Lianxing narrowed her eyes.    

    

After hesitating for a moment, she did not choose to walk towards the staircase. Instead, she stood in place and did not move.    

    

After a while, Zhao Lianxing closed her eyes, as if she was asleep.    

    

...    

    

At this time, Chu Yan, Wusilanma and the others were walking in the direction indicated by the identity jade tablet.    

    

Along the way, Chu Yan did not speak a word.    

    

Liu Ming looked at the identity jade token in his hand and a thoughtful expression flashed across his eyes.    

    

There were several times when Puyang Yi wanted to speak up, but he was discovered in advance by Wusilanma, who stopped him from doing so.    

    

However, after a long time, Puyang Yi was still unable to hold it in.    

    

This was because after Chu Yan left behind the words "someone has found it", he had led the two of them forward and did not explain any further.    

    

Puyang Yi really wanted to know what Chu Yan's words actually meant.    

    

Did someone find him, or did someone find the place where the other two mountains were located in the city? Or was it something else?    

    

It was just a sentence without any beginning or end. It was really too baffling.    

    

"Chu Yan." Puyang Yi decided to ignore Wusilanma's gaze this time.    

    

If he were to follow him now, he should at least know where his destination was.    

    

"Hmm?" Chu Yan's gaze immediately turned from the jade token to Puyang Yi's body.    

    

Puyang Yi originally had a bellyful of questions he wanted to ask, but after being stared at by Chu Yan right now, his heart immediately jumped. If he had thought about it beforehand, he didn't know what to say in that instant.    

    

In the end, all he could say was, "Where are we going?"    

    

"If I'm not mistaken, the final destination should be one of the two locations you mentioned. However, I still don't know where I'm going now." Chu Yan said: "However, we are not far from there. We will be there in less than an hour."    

    

"Huh?" Puyang Yi was startled for a moment, then realized what Chu Yan meant.    

    

Therefore, he hurriedly took two steps forward and chased after Chu Yan as he said, "What you mean is, those two mountain peaks of the Three Saint Mountain range corresponded to this city's location, and someone found it before me?"    

    

When he said these words, even Puyang Yi did not realize that, but his own tone was filled with shock.
