Supreme Divine Book

"Also, I should be able to guess the relationship between your mother and the sacred door!"    

    

"What did you say?"    

    

Han Chen's pupils could not help but constrict as his heart suddenly trembled. His face immediately filled with thick shock and excitement. "You know?"    

    

"Perhaps I know, based on my understanding of the Holy Gate. Other than that, I can't think of any other reason why the people of the Sacred Gate would want to appear in that small Grand Seal Empire far away from here. "    

    

Zhongli Yanchang's voice was very calm.    

    

However, Han Chen was already extremely nervous, his fists were tightly clenched, and his tone was especially urgent. What was Senior Zhongli's reason? Say it quickly! Just where is my mother? "    

    

"Opening Emperor Hall!" The three clear words exploded in Han Chen's mind like a thunderclap.    

    

"Opening Emperor Hall?" Han Chen was startled, and asked puzzledly: "Why is it at the Emperor Opening Hall?"    

    

"Candidates for the position of Holy Maiden of Kaihuang"    

    

"W-what?"    

    

Han Chen's face muscles could not help but freeze, a candidate for the position of Holy Maiden of Kaihuang? Isn't this answer a bit too comical?    

    

Although in Han Chen's heart, mother Bai Muxuan was an irreplaceable relative. But Han Chen was also very clear that her mother was just a normal woman.    

    

Furthermore, his cultivation did not even have morphogenesis, so the difference between him and a Holy Sect was like heaven and earth.    

    

"Shouldn't the person who inherited one of the Holy Maiden of Kaihuang s be the Templar?"    

    

In regards to Han Chen's doubts, Zhongli Yanchang did not give much of a response, as she indifferently said. For the other Temples, the first choice would indeed be Templar, but not everyone can inherit the title of Holy Maiden of Kaihuang. "    

    

"What about my mother? Can she? "    

    

Han Chen was really unable to understand, how did the Holy Gate choosing a candidate have to do with his own mother? Both sides were from two completely different worlds.    

    

"Perhaps."    

    

Zhongli Yanchang calmly replied, and continued speaking, "The domain that the Opening Emperor Hall specializes in, is sealing techniques. And the strongest was the Emperor Seal. The Emperor Seal gathered three thousand secret sealing arts of the Great Dao. After learning it, one could control everything in the world. But, if you want to cultivate this Emperor Seal, there is a prerequisite. "    

    

"What condition?"    

    

"Cultivators must possess the 'Nine Emperor Bloodline' as well as the 'Nine Emperor Bloodline'."    

    

Nine Emperor Bloodline?    

    

The confusion on Han Chen's face became even stronger.    

    

"The so-called Nine Emperor Bloodline is a special kind of physique. This bloodline didn't have much use in other areas. But to those who trained in the Emperor Seal, they would definitely have an advantage. Only people with this bloodline can cultivate the Emperor Seal to the highest level. "    

    

Zhongli Yanchang paused for a moment, and then continued, "As for people with the Nine Emperor Bloodline, they are relatively hard to find, especially females."    

    

"What do you mean?"    

    

"That's right, your mother might very well be someone with the Nine Emperor bloodline."    

    

"Wait, wait!"    

    

Han Chen rubbed his temple, which was starting to feel dizzy, his mind was in a mess. No, roughly calculating it, my mother left me and my father ten years ago before the Hundred Year Grand Ceremony began. We've been separated for nearly fifteen years. And Yu Feng * only returned to the Holy Gate six years ago, so the Holy Gate should have only known that something bad had happened to you at that time. And why did you choose my mother fifteen years ago? "    

    

In Han Chen's opinion, the news of Zhongli Yanchang's' fall 'was most likely coming from Yu Fenglan's mouth.    

    

Since the Holy Gate hadn't known that the Holy Maiden of Kaihuang was already 'dead' before Yu Fenglan had returned. Then why would she choose a candidate for the Holy Maiden?    

    

"You're wrong." Zhongli Yanchang bluntly denied it, "Back then, at the Sealing Coffin, the holy gate knew that I had fallen."    

    

"What?" "How could that be?"    

    

"All eight Holy Maiden Saints have branded themselves with the 'Life Imprint Divine Stone' within the sect. Once life was persecuted, the Stone of Imprint would split open. Thus, decades ago, the Sanctuary knew that I had met with a calamity of destruction. But Yu Fenglan who is only trapped in the blood coffin, the life imprint divine stone will not be affected! "    

    

Hearing Zhongli Yanchang's words, Han Chen could not help but feel chills down his spine.    

    

If that was the case, the Sacred Gate would have to choose the next Holy Maiden of Kaihuang.    

    

Coincidentally, mother Bai Muxuan possessed the Nine Emperor Bloodline, so she would be chosen after a one in a billion chance.    

    

One was the sacred door of the Star Continent and the other was at the edge of the Dongxuan.    

    

It could be imagined how long the 'hand' of the 'Holy Gate' had stretched out.    

    

How much energy had he expended in order to find a suitable successor?    

    

Thinking about it this way, she found out that it was someone from Bai Muxuan's Sacred Gate. Unwilling to spend so much time, he had to take her away. Bai Muxuan didn't even care about threats, so she had no choice.    

    

Under that person's coercion, he could only use 'faking death' to deceive his family and eventually came to the Holy Gate helplessly.    

    

Is that right?    

    

Is this the truth?    

    

Han Chen couldn't help but feel extremely excited, and his mind was also in complete chaos.    

    

This was just Zhongli Yanchang's guess, but it was impossible to find any flaws in her guess. Everything sounded so smooth.    

    

"I want to go to the Imperial Palace to investigate." Han Chen clenched his fists, his eyes blazing with fire.    

    

"Hmph, what's the rush? In my opinion, even if you search the entire Emperor Palace, you wouldn't find any clues. "    

    

"Why?"    

    

"The upper echelons of the Sacred Gate are always swift and decisive. They will not allow even the slightest mistake. Moreover, the matter of selecting the next Holy Maiden of Kaihuang was extremely important. Would they just let your mother run all over the streets? "    

    

"Then how should I do it?"    

    

"I don't know."    

    

"You?"    

    

"I really don't know." Zhongli Yanchang emphasized her tone, "Do you know how much effort and price it takes to raise a Holy Son or Holy Maiden? Especially since your mother's own strength is too weak, it is hard to avoid the Saint Sect needing special care. Furthermore, your mother was definitely not the only one chosen as the successor to the Holy Maiden of Kaihuang. There must be other geniuses with the Nine Emperor bloodline as well! "    

    

Zhongli Yanchang was even more certain.    

    

As a former Holy Maiden of Kaihuang, she knew more than anyone else how the Sacred Gate operated.    

    

The main reason why the Sacred Gate hadn't publicly announced the fact that the Holy Maiden of Kaihuang had fallen in so many years was because they hoped to nurture and select the next Holy Maiden of Kaihuang.    

    

In order to complete this task, it was impossible to accomplish overnight, and there was no room for mistakes.    

    

Thus, those with the Nine Emperor Bloodline couldn't casually reveal their identities.    

    

"Hu!"    

    

Han Chen took a deep breath, then powerlessly sat on the steps of the palace gate.    

    

Everything was like an iron gate in front of him.    

    

If he did not open the iron gate, it would be hard to verify Zhongli Yanchang's guess.    

    

After a long while, Han Chen finally calmed the restlessness in his heart.    

    

Those confused eyes had once again become wise and bright.    

    

Since he had already come this far, there would eventually be a day when he would be able to get to the bottom of this.    

    

Besides, this was only his first day in the Sacred Gate, and he already had so much information. Furthermore, with the help of Holy Maiden of Kaihuang Zhongli Yanchang, there was no need to worry about not finding an answer.    

    

"Senior Zhong Li, I have something else to ask you."    

    

"You really have a lot to do." Zhongli Yanchang seemed to be a little impatient. It could be seen that she was not in a very good mood right now. Speak! What nonsense is this? "    

    

"That Miss Yu Feng …"    

    

"It's Lady Yu Feng again?"    

    

Without waiting for Han Chen to finish speaking, Zhongli Yanchang cut him off, "Are you trying to ask, when Yu Fenglan killed me, how will the Sacred Gate punish her?"    

    

"Me?"    

    

"Hmph, you really can't forget about her."    

    

"Senior Zhongli, let me finish speaking."    

    

"Enough, stop it. I'll tell you! Outside the holy gate, killing fellow disciples would not be held accountable. In other words, Yu Fenglan will not bear any responsibility because of my death. I asked for it all, and she won't be punished. Are you satisfied now? "    

    

Han Chen was a little helpless, he did not know how to explain.    

    

Just as he wanted to speak up, he was stopped by the other party, "Don't talk to me, I want to be alone and quiet."    

    

Zhongli Yanchang was like an angry little girl, with a feeling of being jealous of someone else's woman.    

    

However, the truth was that most of the reason why she wasn't in a good mood was because she had returned to the Sacred Gate in such a state.    

    

Back then, she was an aloof and revered Holy Maiden of Kaihuang.    

    

But today, she had become a remnant soul of her Immortal Soul, someone who could only rely on lodging in another person's body.    

    

The difference between the two could be imagined.    

    

Han Chen secretly shook his head, and said: "Actually what I want to say is …"    

    

"You bastard, are you deaf? I told you not to talk to me anymore. If you keep on arguing with me, do you believe that I'll ignore you forever? " Zhongli Yanchang scolded loudly. Her angry tone showed that she was truly angry.    

    

Han Chen immediately shut his mouth, thinking to himself, the speed this woman changed expressions at, was truly quick.    

    

Just a moment ago, the two of them were still fine. But now, everything had turned out like this.    

    

"Never mind, it's good to leave her in peace."    

    

Han Chen sighed inwardly, then stood up and opened his arms, releasing a deep sigh of relief, and entered the courtyard.    

    

The residence of an elite disciple was truly unique.    

    

The beautiful environment and clean ground caused Han Chen's mood to turn a lot better.    

    

On the first night they entered the sacred door, Han Chen did not sleep the entire night.    

    

After sorting out the information that he had obtained from Xun Ke and Zhongli Yanchang's guesses, he felt that Zhongli Yanchang's guesses were very likely to be correct.    

    

The areas that they would be investigating would be focused on the Mausoleum of Books.    

    

Furthermore, he had come to the Sacred Gate to search for mother Bai Muxuan's whereabouts. Han Chen was also very clear that this martial arts holy land was a very rare opportunity for him.    

    

"Then I will cultivate while searching for mother's whereabouts!"    

    

Han Chen's eyes flashed with determination. One day, he would step into the peak of the martial way. To him, there would no longer be any secrets in this world.
