After thoroughly investigating all the clues, an elder led a group to Central Province to seek divination from the Heavenly Secrets Sect regarding Zixia's whereabouts.
Juntian Hall.
"Announce to all sects in the Eastern Wasteland that the Ruthless Inheritance has reappeared in the world. This time, he abducted the Innate Dao Embryo of the Purple Mansion Holy Land; next time, it will be the Eastern Wasteland Divine Body of the Ji Family." Turning to look at the elders behind him, the Purple Mansion Holy Lord said coldly.
" Holy Lord, this doesn't seem to make sense..."
The elders exchanged bewildered glances. Should they simply shift the blame to the Ruthless One Lineage? That didn't seem like the right approach.
Moreover, the Ruthless One Lineage has disappeared without a trace. There is no evidence to suggest that the disappearance of the Holy Maiden was caused by the Ruthless One Lineage. On the contrary, there are remnants of Void Divine Power in the palace, which is clearly the work of a cultivator who has practiced the Void Scripture.
Two elders wanted to offer advice, but seeing the Holy Lord's cold gaze, they wisely withdrew.
"Yes, sir!"
The Lord of the Crimson Heaven Palace bowed deeply, took out a piece of divine jade, and began to draft a document.
Regardless of whether Ruthless One Lineage or not, targeting Innate Dao Embryo definitely makes them Ruthless One Lineage, enemies of all religions, and deserving of death!
Half an hour later, after the elders had dispersed, the Purple Mansion Holy Lord said to the Punishment Elder beside him, "Send someone to inquire with the Ji Family Holy Lord whether the Ji Family of the Southern Region intends to wage war against the Purple Mansion Holy Land. Tell them to quickly send back the Innate Dao Embryo, otherwise I will personally visit the Ji Family."
The remnants of divine power in the Void reveal many things.
Even if the Ji Family wasn't behind this, they are still involved. At the very least, it means that the Ji Family's " Void Scripture " has been leaked and is being practiced by outsiders.
This matter is even more serious than the disappearance of the Purple Mansion Saintess. Scriptures are the foundation of a power, especially for the extreme forces, who guard the Emperor Scripture very tightly. If the Void Scripture were to fall into the hands of outsiders, it would definitely cause a huge uproar and shake the Eastern Wasteland.
The news quickly spread throughout the Eastern Wasteland: the holy maiden of a top-tier holy land had gone missing, and had been abducted from the Divine Land of the Purple Mansion Holy Land. Everyone was on edge.
The Ji Family replaced Ji Haoyue's protector, appointing the Eighth Ancestor of the Ji Family to take charge of the God King Body.
Su Yu didn't care about the turmoil inside the Purple Mansion. His current strength was enough to roam freely across the Five Regions. Except for Mount Sumeru in the Western Desert, which he couldn't go to, the Buddhist cultivators were incredibly powerful due to the existence of their faith power. He could roam freely in the Eastern Wasteland, Southern Ridge, Central Province, and Northern Plains.
This trip to the Purple Mansion Holy Land only took two days, yet they managed to capture the Innate Dao Embryo.
After the two returned to the Chaos Small World, Ling Yang very consciously returned to his lair.
Su Yu stepped into the Void, summoned the Immortal Palace, and activated the Chaos Divine Power. The original two-meter-high Immortal Gold Palace instantly expanded, transforming into a majestic Heavenly Palace tens of meters tall.
Behind him, the thirty-three main halls were draped with the Mother Qi of All Things, and the entire Immortal Palace was covered with mysterious patterns, exuding an aura of vastness.
Standing in the Daoist temple, looking at the two familiar statues of Empress, Su Yu activated the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar. The lid flew off, and the Diagram of Mountains, Rivers, and the State was unleashed.
In the Mountain River Diagram, a girl in purple robes appears ethereal and delicate, as if about to ascend to Flying Immortal. She hides on a Saint Cliff, with a beautiful woman in a palace dress behind her.
Under the corrosive influence of the imperial aura, the seal on this Holy Lord artifact was quickly broken. Even though it was the natal divine weapon of Immortal Second Realm Mighty Figure immortal, it was still no match for Emperor Weapon.
With a roar, a purple-haired old man burst out of the Mountain River Diagram. His eyes were filled with purple energy, and he exuded the aura of Supreme Peak Great Power. His body was surrounded by traces of the Great Dao.
The old man unleashed a Ziyang, and instantly, a vast expanse of purple energy rose from all around, surrounding the Ziyang in the Void. Terrifying flames rained down, as if to cleanse the world of all filth and obliterate everything.
"The lingering resentment of the previous Holy Lord is of no use!" Su Yu remained unmoved and said coldly. In his eyes, the attack of Supreme Peak Holy Lord was nothing but fleeting smoke, and nothing in front of Emperor Weapon.
The Purple Mansion Holy Land spared no expense for this Holy Maiden, even bestowing upon her the natal divine weapon of the previous Holy Lord. Ji Ziyue of the Desolate Antiquity Ji Family did not receive such treatment, making her unique among all the Holy Sons and Holy Maidens.
A wisp of dark light descended from the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, transforming into a dazzling black-gold divine chain, radiating a rich imperial aura. Its terrifying extreme pressure forced the surrounding Black and Yellow Qi into the other palaces.
"Bang!"
With a flash of light, under the attack of the Emperor Weapon, this lingering phantom was instantly pierced by the Order Divine Chains, turning into a faint purple aura that was carried away by the Black and Yellow Qi.
As the afterimage disappeared, the Mountain River Diagram reversed its direction, the glow swirling around the artifact dimmed, some of the Dao patterns were erased by the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, and the seal within the scroll was completely broken.
"Brush!"
The Purple Mansion Saintess flew out, her breathtakingly beautiful face flashing by before disappearing again, shrouded in purple mist once more. She was like a fairy on water, every movement imbued with the Dao.
This is the Innate Dao Embryo, which is almost always in a state of perfect harmony between heaven and man, and every move it makes contains the divine charm of the Great Dao.
The beautiful woman beside her stared at Su Yu.
"Who exactly are you? Aren't you afraid of being investigated by the Purple Mansion Holy Land?"
Su Yu chuckled but did not respond. He made a hand seal, and the Chaos mist around him dissipated, revealing his handsome face.
He wore a black phoenix robe with gold thread, surrounded by Chaos energy. His black hair was draped over his shoulders, and Perfect World. The Devouring Heaven Demon Jar on his head floated slightly, with strands of dark light hanging down.
The Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon of the Ruthless One Lineage!
The beautiful woman trembled, her beautiful eyes flickered, and despair welled up in her heart.
In this situation, there was no way out. Even if the Purple Mansion Holy Lord came in person with the Purple Mansion Mountain River Diagram, he would not be able to save them with just an Emperor Weapon.
A Chaos aura, wreathed in celestial light, pierced through the air, ignoring the beautiful woman's desperate resistance, and directly entered her sea of consciousness, planting Thought Restriction.
Su Yu waved his sleeve and took her away, then gazed at the Purple Mansion Saintess within the purple mist.
Please don't hurt her, okay?
The Purple Mansion Saintess had a serene personality and an otherworldly air, but at this moment she was somewhat anxious and pleaded.
Chapter 174 Question
"That depends on you. You should understand why I personally infiltrated the Purple Mansion Holy Land!" Su Yu said somewhat coldly, his mindset had changed, and he was no longer as gentle.
Zixia remained silent. She knew perfectly well what the other party's purpose was. The only thing worth risking his life to enter the Purple Mansion Holy Land was her special physique.
Thinking of her tragic fate as a vessel in the future, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, her starry eyes dimming completely.
Su Yu showed no mercy. With a wave of his sleeve, he dispersed the purple mist surrounding Zixia, revealing her true appearance. She was like a blooming divine flower, with an extremely beautiful face, a slender and graceful figure, and her long black hair dancing in the wind.
This goddess stands alone in the sacred space, and everyone is involuntarily drawn to her. This is the mercy of the Great Dao. As Innate Dao Embryo, she is inherently a part of the myriad Daos of Heaven and Earth.
Immortal Gold, Chaos energy, a waterfall of primordial yellow...
This world has many things that amaze her, but those no longer matter.
As if she had seen through everything, Zixia said softly, "Can you let Suxin go?"
The sound was extremely pleasant, like the sound of stringed instruments, and was incredibly beautiful.
Su Yu neither confirmed nor denied, making no promise, but instead asked, "Aren't you afraid? I belong to the Ruthless One Lineage, and your essence is an invaluable treasure to me."
"Everything is as you wish, senior!"
After saying this, Zixia closed her eyes, awaiting the humiliation to come and death not far away!
"To be drained of my life force, then to die from having my essence devoured! Is this my fate?"
At this moment, she thought of the old people in her hometown. She was originally a mortal girl from Pingshan Country in the Void Bright Realm the Central Region of the Eastern Wasteland. Her parents had died early, and only her elderly grandmother had raised her.
When she was seven years old, a celestial being traveled through hundreds of countries and happened to arrive at a village where he discovered her.
What followed was a dreamlike experience. She was taken in as a disciple by this immortal and traveled in a jade carriage to the Purple Mansion Holy Land. She was taken in as the last disciple by the previous Purple Mansion Holy Lord and made the Purple Mansion Saintess. He took great care of her and even left his natal divine weapon to her before his death.
This preferential treatment aroused extreme jealousy in the Purple Mansion Holy Son, as it was indeed unfair. No other holy land had ever had such a precedent. With the departure of the previous Purple Mansion Holy Lord, her status in the Purple Mansion Holy Land began to decline, and she was suppressed by the lineage of the Holy Son.
However, none of this mattered. Thanks to her Innate Dao Embryo, she was destined to take control of the Purple Mansion Mountain River Diagram and become the female Holy Lord of the Purple Mansion Holy Land. The Holy Son lineage could not change reality, and she firmly believed in this.
Now, her dream is shattered. This handsome, almost otherworldly man has captured her with Emperor Weapon, only to covet her essence. She is doomed to be humiliated and die either way, so why act improperly, bringing shame to the Purple Mansion Holy Land and earning his contempt?
A beam of Five-Colored Divine Light shot out, condensing into a ribbon that wrapped around the slender waist of the Purple Mansion Saintess before retracting.
With a soft exclamation, Su Yu, holding Zixia, sat on the steps, gazing at the misty sea of clouds, and suddenly felt somewhat listless.
"If a mortal has done you a great favor and loves you, what would you do?"
Zixia's face was pale, and her breathing was somewhat rapid. There was no sense of romance, only fear and despair.
Caught in this predicament, her mind was in turmoil, and she lost her supernatural powers of being in harmony with the Dao. She resembled an ordinary woman, her eyelashes blurred by mist, and tears welling up in her eyes.
Seeing the person in his arms standing like a block of wood, Su Yu calmly said, "If you don't answer, your Elder Suxin will die!"
"Don't want!"
The woman in purple took a deep breath, a flash of purple light appearing on her face, wiping away the tears in her eyes. She calmed herself and said softly, "I will grant him Lifetime of wealth and honor. If he wishes to embark on the path of cultivation, I will do my best to help him!"
"That's all?"
Su Yu hugged Zixia's waist and nestled against her fair shoulder, looking somewhat tired.
Countless strands of dark light descended from the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar above his head, falling directly from the Nine Heavens and transforming into a waterfall that flowed into the five-colored lake below, splashing up waves on the lake's surface and radiating brilliant light.
"Isn't that enough?"
Zixia neither disturbed nor resisted. With a slight sniff, she smelled the fragrance of Green Lotus and Divine Medicine on Su Yu's body, which caused her soul to tremble slightly. It was as if a pure energy was flowing into her limbs and bones, giving her a cool feeling.
He loves you!
"Would True Phoenix from the Nine Heavens care about the affections of ants on the ground? No matter how great the favor, I will do my best to give him everything he wants, but not me!"
"Is that so? Oh, I see!"
Su Yu sighed deeply, stopped asking questions, and his expression grew increasingly sorrowful.
A fair, Ruyu hand reached out to Zixia's gauze skirt and began to slowly unbutton it, feeling the warm touch of her skin.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
All around was utter silence, with boundless clouds churning. Feeling the heartbeat and trembling of the person in his arms, Su Yu smiled gently.
"You're afraid, afraid that I'll drain your life force and then devour your essence! Isn't that right?"
Zixia's body tensed, her eyes dim, and she did not reply. At this moment, she could no longer pretend, and tears streamed down her face, as if she were crying for her tragic fate.
Su Yu turned the beauty in his arms around, his eyes sparkling with a different kind of light. He gently brushed a strand of hair that was obscuring her eyes aside and wiped away her glistening tears.
He laid the girl horizontally, put his left arm around her shoulder, and slipped his right hand under her skirt to lift Zixia up, then walked towards the main hall.
As they crossed the arched bridge, fearing the other's anger, Zixia weakly clung to Su Yu's neck, much like a woman who had been forcibly taken, unwilling yet forced to put on a brave face.
Along the way, she witnessed the Divine Spring forming a pool, Immortal Gold forming the Dao, and primordial yellow forming a waterfall. In the pool, Green Lotus grew vigorously, and the Chaos energy permeated the air, exuding vitality. Strands of lotus Daoist charm fell into the Void and were imprinted on the bundles of Black and Yellow Qi.
Upon entering the palace, what came into view were eighteen sacred inscriptions from the Nine Heavens Divine Jade series.
Actually, describing it as an inscription is not accurate, because each piece of the jade scripture is very thin and fragile. Although it is more than a person tall, its thickness is quite remarkable.
These sacred Dao Scripture are treasures that Su Yu painstakingly searched for, and they are all made of Nine Heavens Divine Jade, making them extremely precious. The last five jade discs even carry the aura of the sacred path, as they are scriptures handwritten by Saint.
Zixia gazed at the scriptures, her beautiful eyes widening in astonishment. She recognized the celestial materials: the Nine Heavens Scarlet Jade King, the Nine Heavens White Jade Disc, the Nine Heavens Azurefall Divine Jade, the Blood Diamond, the Silver Moon Divine Jade...
