"Yeah?"
Upon hearing Quasi-Emperor Qinghe's words, Chen Qingyu's expression shifted slightly, and he remained silent in contemplation.
Something unusual must be going on.
He had a vague premonition that this Emperor Venerable Qinglu wanted to see him because he was hiding some secret.
"Brother Taiyu."
Quasi-Emperor Qinghe:
"Don't worry, my great-aunt, although she has a reclusive personality, is a very kind person."
"Don't worry, you can go see her without any problems."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu smiled:
"Brother Qinghe, you're overthinking it."
Although he had doubts, he did not feel any fear or apprehension.
After all, if the many Emperor Venerable of the Holy Protection Alliance wanted to deal with him, they wouldn't need to go through all this trouble.
He was very certain:
Given the extraordinary value he has demonstrated, no Emperor Venerable, unless he has lost his mind, would dare to target him and destroy his own defenses.
"Brother Qinghe."
Chen Qingyu stood up and said politely:
"Since Emperor Venerable Qinglu has extended an invitation, the sooner the better."
"Brother Qinghe, please lead the way for me. I will go and pay my respects to this Emperor Venerable now."
Upon hearing this, Quasi-Emperor Qinghe rose with delight and said:
"Alright, Brother Taiyu, please follow me."
soon:
The two rode on the light of their escape, flying out of the Heavenly Palace and heading towards the deepest part of the sea of clouds.
Not long after--
Nine-colored clouds can be seen in the distance, Immeasurable bright light rises, its magnificent and vast aura, like the sun and moon traversing the sky, filling every corner of the sea of clouds.
We have arrived at the secluded cultivation place of the Holy Protection Alliance and all the Emperor Venerable.
"Brother Taiyu!"
Upon arriving here, Quasi-Emperor Qinghe subconsciously concealed his escape light and whispered:
"Follow me, the gate to the smaller world is just ahead."
"Um."
Chen Qingyu responded and followed behind Quasi-Emperor Qinghe, flying into the nine-colored clouds.
The next moment:
Before his eyes flashed a small, exquisite gate, seemingly woven from verdant plants and flowers, stood atop a cloud of blue.
"Great-aunt and grandmother."
Quasi-Emperor Qinghe descended in a flash of light, quickly walked to the gate, and respectfully said:
" Quasi-Emperor Taiyu has arrived."
As soon as he finished speaking:
A dazzling blue light burst forth from the verdant grass and trees of the gate, rippling out in layers of water-like patterns.
"Brother Taiyu!"
Quasi-Emperor Qinghe turned to look at him and reached out his hand:
"Please, my great-aunt only wants to see you, so it's not convenient for me to go with her."
"Um."
Chen Qingyu nodded slightly, straightened his clothes, and calmly stepped into the verdant gate.
In an instant:
Space shifts, and the stars move.
When Chen Qingyu opened his eyes again, he found himself on an endless expanse of blue-green plains.
And not far away:
A magnificent palace, pure blue in color, sits in the very center of the blue field.
The palace was not large, only a few miles square, yet it seemed to be the highest point of the entire world, where the sun and moon revolved and all things were born.
"This feeling..."
Chen Qingyu took a deep breath, his mind sharp and alert.
The Emperor Venerable- level power was only the tip of the iceberg, yet he couldn't fathom its depth or its extent.
In comparison:
The independent little world that Emperor Yuan created deep within the Saint Yuan Minor Realm is nothing compared to this.
"You're Chen Qingyu?"
A clear, cold voice suddenly rang in Chen Qingyu's mind:
"Come in."
Chen Qingyu nodded slightly, then stepped forward and walked for about a quarter of an hour until he arrived at the gate of the blue palace.
Ascending the steps and entering the hall, a bright and spacious view suddenly unfolds before your eyes.
Looking around:
The blue-green hall doesn't look very big from the outside, but its interior seems to stretch endlessly into the distance.
The hall was filled with vibrant life, as if it were nestled in a mountain forest, with exotic flowers and rare herbs blooming everywhere, and various fragrances wafting through the air.
And among the flowers and plants:
A beautiful young woman, with skin as smooth as jade, dressed in a simple blue dress and wearing a hairpin, sat gracefully on a blue rattan chair, looking down at him.
Her slender, delicate fingers casually tapped the armrest of the rattan chair, revealing a touch of elegance and nobility in her eyes.
" Chen Qingyu greets Emperor Venerable Qinglu."
Chen Qingyu bowed respectfully, his attitude neither humble nor arrogant.
"Sit."
The girl in green raised her hand in greeting.
The grass and vines surged, and in an instant, a rattan chair materialized behind Chen Qingyu.
"Thank you, Your Emperor Venerable."
Chen Qingyu responded politely.
After he sat down, the girl in green parted her thin lips slightly and said softly:
I've summoned you here for two purposes, one official and one personal.
"Business is business, as you can guess. It's nothing more than tricks like trying to win you over with promises and give you peace of mind. I'm not interested in playing along, and you don't need to pretend."
"The reason I volunteered to take this opportunity to see you is actually for personal reasons."
Hearing her words:
Chen Qingyu, on the contrary, felt a sense of relief.
The unknown is always daunting, but since the other party has something to ask for, things become easier.
However:
Then, a single sentence from the girl in green startled him:
" The Supreme Void Eternal World Mirror is on you, isn't it?"
As she said this, the girl in blue stared intently at him.
This question was not phrased in a doubtful tone, but rather in a confident tone.
"..."
Chen Qingyu paused for a moment, his mind racing, before finally nodding slowly and saying:
"Yes, Your Emperor Venerable's discerning eye is infallible."
"I just want to ask..."
The girl in green waved her hand, interrupting him:
"I know what you want to ask—how did I identify the Supreme Void Eternal World Mirror, right?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu nodded silently.
He already had some guesses in his mind, but he still hoped to hear a definite answer from the other party.
And just as he had hoped:
The girl in green spoke calmly, resolving his doubts:
The reason is actually quite simple.
"The original owner of this precious mirror died at my hands."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu was startled:
" Emperor Venerable means is..."
The girl in green sighed softly:
"You're a descendant of those court jesters from the Baihua Clan, aren't you?"
"I used to visit her often. Although your bloodline has transformed into an ancient divine bloodline, some of the aura around you still feels slightly familiar to me."
"After all these years, I thought that the group of courtiers she sent away back then were all dead long ago. I never expected that they would still have descendants."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu couldn't help but take a deep breath.
To this day:
Only then did he finally realize that the Emperor Venerable whom his ancestors, the Saint King Chenliu, and others had served was called the " Emperor Venerable Baihua "!
"You guessed correctly."
Chen Qingyu said in a deep voice:
"So, you were once a close friend of the Emperor Venerable Baihua?"
"Good."
The girl in green nodded slightly and said:
"Long ago, Baihua, Ziyuan, and I were kindred spirits, deeply affectionate, and swore an oath of brotherhood, supporting each other through thick and thin."
"Later, the three of us entered the Realm of Creation one after another, and were known as the Kunyu Three Sisters, which was quite a famous story at the time."
" The Supreme Void Eternal World Mirror in your hand was obtained by the three of us during a sea voyage before we ascended to the Emperor Venerable. We joined forces to kill a Peak Quasi-Emperor who committed numerous evils and enslaved all living beings."
"After his death, I obtained his divine Divine Weapon, Baihua obtained his Mystic Artifact, Ziyuan obtained all his wealth."
