"Um."
The Mystery Lord smiled slightly and extended his hand, saying:
"Please, both of you."
Danyang Ju nodded happily and immediately followed the Mystery Lord toward the largest glazed palace.
Chen Qingyu took a half step back and followed behind the two Heavenly Lord, listening intently to their conversation.
"Um?"
At that moment, he suddenly noticed a gaze, and his brows furrowed slightly as he turned to look at the source of the gaze.
"This!"
He paused for a moment, a hint of surprise on his face:
What is this person doing here?
The Quasi-Emperor Formless, clad in a black robe, stood behind the group of mental servants, secretly observing him with a look of astonishment in his eyes.
If Chen Qingyu was merely surprised, then the Quasi-Emperor Formless Wuxiang was utterly shocked.
He never expected to see Chen Qingyu again in this Heavenly Heart Glazed Realm.
When he heard that familiar voice and name, he almost thought he was hallucinating. He looked up before he dared to confirm it.
"This Quasi-Emperor Formless is truly interesting..."
Chen Qingyu narrowed his eyes, staring at the Quasi-Emperor Formless, a thought flickering in his mind.
He was quite surprised that the Quasi-Emperor Formless was able to enter the Sea of Mind and even become a disciple of the Mystery Lord.
But on second thought, it seems quite reasonable.
After all, the Law of Mind is one of the strongest among the Upper-Tier Law, and its difficulty and rarity in comprehending it are no less than those of the Law of Time.
The Quasi-Emperor Formless Wuxiang was also exceptionally talented, not much inferior to the Void King. If he were to have the opportunity to get close to the Mystery Lord, it wouldn't be surprising.
"Um?"
The Mystery Lord, who was talking to Danyang Ju, noticed his gaze, looked over, and was somewhat surprised:
" Chen Qingyu, do you know my newly accepted disciple?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu nodded and said:
"To be honest, Mystery Lord, I have quite a connection with this Quasi-Emperor Formless; we're... fellow townsmen, you could say."
"Yeah?"
The Mystery Lord smiled, seemingly unconcerned, and casually said:
"Since you two are so fortunate to have this connection, you should get to know each other better."
"Yes."
Although he was somewhat surprised to see the Quasi-Emperor Formless here, he didn't really care and didn't consider him a threat.
After all, his current status is worlds apart from that of Quasi-Emperor Formless.
Don't be fooled by the difference between a nominal disciple and a personal disciple; though it's only a two-word distinction, one is equivalent to a highly valued prince, while the other is just a servant or eunuch casually accepted.
You can tell from the Mystery Lord's attitude--
If he had paid even a little attention to the Quasi-Emperor Formless, with the power and authority he wielded, he should have known long ago that the Quasi-Emperor Formless and Chen Qingyu were from the same hometown.
Clearly, the Mystery Lord doesn't care about the Quasi-Emperor Formless, or even where he comes from.
Let's go.
After this minor incident, the Mystery Lord continued to lead Danyang Ju and Chen Qingyu towards the Glazed Palace.
Behind them:
Numerous spiritual servants and a dozen or so nominal disciples followed behind, with the Quasi-Emperor Formless also among them.
Damn it!
"This Chen Qingyu... he actually managed to be accepted as a personal disciple by the Heavenly Lord Emperor!!"
The Quasi-Emperor Formless secretly glanced at Chen Qingyu's back and gritted his teeth.
This moment:
Even he couldn't say whether he felt envy or jealousy; he just felt like a bottle of soy sauce and vinegar had been overturned, a mix of emotions swirling within him.
On what grounds?
Two days ago, after going through countless hardships, he relied on the opportunity he gained from the fourth level of the Divine Throne and his own Law of Mind to "ascend" into the Sea of Mind and become a disciple of the Mystery Lord.
The moment he was accepted by the Mystery Lord, he was overjoyed and excited to the extreme, feeling as if the path to Heaven-reaching was already unfolding before his eyes.
After all, in the entire Three Thousand Dao Domains, those who can establish connections with the Heavenly Lord are extremely rare, far surpassing his previous experience in the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain.
He no longer even considered the Void King a threat, because he knew that his future achievements would far surpass those of the Void King.
A moment ago:
While he was still immersed in his cultivation, he received an urgent notice that a Heavenly Lord was coming to visit the Mystery Lord.
With a mix of anticipation and trepidation, he followed the Mystery Lord out to greet him, never dreaming that he would actually see Chen Qingyu!
Still as a disciple personally taught by the Heavenly Lord!
Chen Qingyu, who was once powerless to resist him and could only rely on Emperor Venerable Qinglu to save him, has now transformed into a powerful figure whose status far surpasses his!
His status as a disciple of the Heavenly Lord Emperor, which he was so proud of, became insignificant in front of the other party.
" Chen Qingyu..."
The feelings of the Quasi-Emperor Formless were extremely complicated.
He looked at Chen Qingyu at the very front of the procession, standing beside the two Heavenly Lord were chatting and laughing, occasionally managing to interject with a word. His mood was extremely gloomy.
"Hey kid!"
An old man came over, nudged him with his arm, and asked curiously:
"You know the young master of the Supreme Star Palace?"
The Quasi-Emperor Formless paused for a moment, then turned to look at him:
"Young Palace Master?"
"You still don't know?"
The old man looked at him with surprise, then seemed to understand something and chuckled softly:
"This is a truly important figure, the seventh personal disciple of the Supreme Star Venerable, and currently the young master of the Supreme Star Palace. It is said that tens of thousands of Emperor Venerable in the Star Sea are under his command."
"This news caused a sensation in the Heavenly Heart Glazed Realm more than a month ago. Even our master personally sent someone to offer his congratulations..."
Upon hearing this, the Quasi-Emperor Formless felt even more distressed.
He had just "ascended" to the Sea of Mind two days ago and was accepted as a disciple by the Mystery Lord, but he was subtly ostracized by the other disciples, and no one had told him the news.
"..."
The old man glanced at him, seemingly guessing something, and quietly moved away from him.
The Quasi-Emperor Formless had a gloomy expression, but could only silently follow behind his mental servant, watching from afar as Chen Qingyu and the two Heavenly Lord entered the Glazed Palace.
Inside the Crystal Palace:
The Mystery Lord, Danyang Ju, and Chen Qingyu took their seats as host and guest.
The spirit servant immediately stepped forward with a silver tray, on which were placed exquisitely crafted crystal glasses.
The crystal glass contained a clear, colorless liquid, constantly bubbling with tiny bubbles, with an invisible vortex seemingly forming in the center, emanating an intoxicating aroma.
Chen Qingyu.
The Mystery Lord raised his glass in acknowledgment and said with a smile:
"Since this is your first time here, why not savor this ' Intoxicating Heart Brew '? It's my secret recipe."
Danyang Ju, standing to the side, also chuckled and said:
"Indeed, the Mystery Lord's ' Intoxicating Heart Brew ' has the miraculous effect of cleansing the soul and calming the mind. The first drink has shown good results."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingyu immediately raised his glass and said:
"Thank you, Mystery Lord."
He took a small sip and felt as if he had swallowed an ice cube on a hot summer day. His whole body felt cool and refreshed, and his mind was as clear as a mirror, as if all the dust had been wiped away.
In that instant, countless flashes of inspiration seemed to appear in his mind, and his thoughts surged like a spring. Many of the difficulties he had encountered in comprehending the laws in the past suddenly became clear.
Even his cultivation level, propelled by this, surged dramatically, now not far from the Extreme Transformation Realm Second Heaven.
"Call!"
Chen Qingyu took a deep breath and exclaimed in admiration:
"It truly is a secret treasure of the Heavenly Lord; the miraculous effects of this ' Intoxicating Heart Brew ' are unparalleled in my life."
The Mystery Lord smiled and said:
"I'm glad you like it. I'll have someone send you some after you leave the Sea of Mind."
Chen Qingyu smiled slightly and nodded, saying:
"Then I thank you very much for your generous gift Mystery Lord."
You provided the starting sign-in rewards for the legendary Zhuang Shisan, featuring Chen Qingyu from the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Transformations Zhuang Shisan.
