Chapter 1574: Disaster Is a Blessing for This Emperor
Upon hearing Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's question, Lu Chen's expression did not change in the slightest. From the beginning, he had guessed that Immortal Venerate Yun Meng would likely inquire about the origin of the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture.
After all, the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture is a Heaven Rank Immortal Technique. Although each Great Immortal Sect has its own Heaven Rank Immortal Techniques, and possibly even Saint-level Immortal Techniques, the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture is the only known technique capable of restraining the Heavenly Demon Power. This makes it even rarer than Saint-level Immortal Techniques.
At this moment, Lu Chen said, "The memories I removed are related to my wives and concubines. Does the Palace Master intend to spy on my daily life with them?"
Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's eyebrows slightly furrowed, then she said, "Then from where did you obtain the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture?"
Lu Chen replied, "It was given to me by the Demon Emperor."
Upon hearing Lu Chen's absurd response, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's expression instantly became extremely serious. She then looked coldly at Lu Chen and asked, "Are you saying that the Demon Emperor gave you an Immortal Technique that restrains her own power?"
Lu Chen said, "I understand that it might be difficult for the Palace Master to believe, but this Immortal Technique was indeed given to me by the Demon Emperor when she left the Chaotic Sea. It was also thanks to the Demon Emperor that I could return to the Tianyan Immortal Domain."
"The Palace Master might consider, apart from the Demon Emperor herself, who else could have created an Immortal Technique that restrains Heavenly Demon Power?"
Immortal Venerate Yun Meng said, "Oh? In that case, are you a spy the Demon Emperor planted in the Mysterious Moon Palace?"
Lu Chen said, "Does the Palace Master believe that with the Demon Emperor's power, she would need to plant spies in other Immortal Sects?"
Immortal Venerate Yun Meng replied with indifference, "Not necessarily."
If it were an ordinary Immortal Sect, there would indeed be no need to plant spies. However, Mysterious Moon Palace is not just any sect, especially considering they have an Immortal Emperor Ancestor awaiting a second life.
Who knows if the Demon Emperor sent Lu Chen to probe the situation of Immortal Emperor Youlan?
Thinking of this possibility made Immortal Venerate Yun Meng even more vigilant. She suddenly felt a bit fortunate that Xu Jingshu's child had not yet been born. Who knows if the Demon Emperor knows about Immortal Emperor Youlan's situation and left some restriction within the unborn child's body?
If Immortal Emperor Youlan were to encounter such a restriction during the Reincarnation, resulting in some unforeseen problem...
At this point, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng dared not think further...
No, Xu Jingshu's child cannot be used as the Reincarnation body for Immortal Emperor Youlan!
Seeing Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's cautious demeanor, Lu Chen knew his words had had an effect.
Lu Chen was not worried at all about being regarded by Immortal Venerate Yun Meng as a spy sent by Xuan Qingyun. After all, this body of his was merely a clone.
Furthermore, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's profile states that she considers herself a key figure in resisting future disasters. For this reason, even if Immortal Venerate Yun Meng knew of his connection to Xuan Qingyun, she would refrain from acting against her.
As for whether Immortal Venerate Yun Meng would seek out the Demon Emperor to verify the origin of the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture, there was hardly a need to worry. Xuan Qingyun is considered an enemy by Immortal Venerate Yun Meng, so how could she possibly go to him for confirmation?
At this moment, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng found herself somewhat afflicted with a headache. She had never expected Lu Chen to be such a troublesome matter.
Subsequently, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng said to Lu Chen, "You should go back. Once I and Star River Immortal Venerate have formulated a plan, I will send a message to you."
With those words, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng waved her hand, and Lu Chen was directly sent back to Heavenly Language Peak by a force.
After Lu Chen left, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng hesitated not at all and headed directly to the depths of the Mysterious Moon Palace.
In the deepest part of the Mysterious Moon Palace, there was a massive Underground Palace, among which slopes and plains of indigo orchids adorned the rock walls and ground. Tiny glimmers of fluorescence oozed from their petal tips, dyeing the dim space into a flowing Star River.
In the center of the Underground Palace lay a Crystal Coffin, on whose surface orchid shadows danced, as if there were Yuehua circulating within.
Within the Crystal Coffin lay a fairy of breathtaking beauty, her black hair cascading like a waterfall spread out over white silk, with a few strands tenderly resting near her cheeks, trembling slightly with the barely perceptible air currents within the coffin.
Her brows were like distant mountains that carried a hint of black pigment, and her long lashes were like butterfly wings that seemed as if they might tremble open at any moment.
The bridge of her nose was elegantly straight like jade, and her lips were a faint pink untouched by cinnabar, with a subtle, enigmatic curve at the corners.
She wore an emperor's robe with silver patterns of dark embroidery, the hem embroidered with patterns matching the color of the orchids in the tomb. The robe's corner shimmered with tiny glows in the faint light within the coffin. Her skin was lustrously white, almost transparent—but not in the lifeless sense of pallor. Instead, it exuded a lustrous warmth reminiscent of jade stone.
The dew droplets that formed on the Crystal Coffin's walls mirrored her visage and the surrounding orchid shadows, making the entire scene look dreamy and surreal.
Upon entering the Underground Palace, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng immediately bowed to the Crystal Coffin in the center, "Disciple pays respect to Honored Master!"
Following Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's words, there was no response from the woman in the Crystal Coffin.
After some moments, a mass of seven-colored immortal power gathered above the Crystal Coffin, forming two words.
"What is it?"
Seeing the two words floating in the air, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng did not hesitate at all and immediately condensed her recent memories from the Mysterious Moon Palace into a Memory Pearl, sending it above the Crystal Coffin.
The next moment, a seven-colored immortal power activated the Memory Pearl in the air.
Soon, several words gathered above the Crystal Coffin again.
"Do not involve yourself in this matter."
Seeing these words, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng was momentarily taken aback.
The last time there was an anomaly in the Tianyan Immortal Domain, that mysterious power had terrified even her. If it indeed spread, the entire Tianyan Immortal Domain could be consumed by it, with effects unknown. Yet surprisingly, Immortal Emperor Youlan told her not to intervene.
It seemed Immortal Emperor Youlan sensed Immortal Venerate Yun Meng's thoughts. The next moment, the words gathered again above the Crystal Coffin.
"Disasters are beneficial to this Emperor."
Reading these words, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng felt even more bewildered. How could disasters become a good thing?
Despite her intense curiosity, Immortal Emperor Youlan did not provide any further explanation.
Likewise, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng did not ask more, understanding that it likely pertained to some of Immortal Emperor Youlan's secrets.
Striving to quell her inner shock, she then asked, "Lu Chen seems to be sent by the Demon Emperor, and it's very likely that Xu Jingshu is also connected to the Demon Emperor. Disciple worries that the Demon Emperor has left some restrictions on Xu Jingshu. Should Disciple find a new Reincarnation body for Honored Master?"
In the next instant, a series of words floated again on the crystal surface.
"This Emperor already has a way to live a second life without needing a Reincarnation body. However, females with the right qualifications are of great use to this Emperor; bring them all to the Mysterious Moon Palace."
Reading these words, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng became even more astonished. Her master no longer needed a Reincarnation body?
Suppressing her inner shock and curiosity, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng responded, "Disciple obeys."
"If Honored Master has no other instructions, Disciple will take her leave."
After speaking, Immortal Venerate Yun Meng waited for a moment on the spot. Seeing no additional words appear above the Crystal Coffin, she turned and left the Underground Palace.
