After Jiang Wenxu saw the recording, he said with a surprised expression on his face, “This girl is indeed a rare talent. She’s not affected by the barrier at all. Since she’s opened up her Birth Palace completely, mankind will definitely have another supreme being in the future.”
“Even Dao Saint Jiang has a high opinion of this girl. It’d be a pity if she can’t be used by the Great Void,” Elder Ming De said.
Jiang Wenxu looked at Elder Ming De knowingly and said, “Don’t tell me the Feather tribe doesn’t have any covetous thoughts at all…”
Elder Ming De replied honestly, “But of course. However, she’s the White Emperor’s people.”
Jiang Wenxu nodded and pointed at Lu Zhou. He asked, “Who’s he?”
“He’s the girl’s master. If it weren’t for him, the girl would’ve joined the Feather tribe,” Elder Ming De replied with a smile.
“What’s his background?” Jiang Wenxu asked.
“Tm not sure yet. I’ve never heard of such a person by the White Emperor’s side. Perhaps, he’s a talent who appeared in the recent years.”
Jiang Wenxu asked, “Did he go to the other Pillars of Destruction?”
Elder Ming De said, “We don’t pay attention to the other pillars. The only one who truly understands the situation of the ten Pillars of Destruction is the Great Void.”
“Then, where is he now?” Jiang Wenxu asked.
Elder Ming De was stumped by this question. He was certain Hong Jian would successfully complete his mission. Who knew Hong Jian would die. The other party was not a fool either so it was impossible for him to leave any clues behind. In the end, he could only shake his head in response to Jiang
Wenxu’s question.
Jiang Wenxu scoffed lightly before he said, “Then, I’l leave it to you to investigate this matter. What do you think?”
“Leave it to me?” Elder Ming De frowned.
“Til report this matter to the Temple Master,” Jiang Wenxu said with a smile, “I believe Elder Ming De will be able to find this person. No matter what, we have to find this girl.”
Elder Ming De cursed Jiang Wenxu in his heart. He had planned to divert the trouble and let the Great Void deal with this matter. In this way, even the White Emperor had to be cautious. Who knew Jiang Wenxu would push the matter back to him?
“Tm afraid I’ll have to ask for Emperor Yu’s opinion,” In the end, Elder Ming De resorted to using Emperor Yu’s name. He did not want to benefit the Great Void for nothing.
Jiang Wenxu brought a token out and said, “The Temple Master has ordered that during the period of imbalance, those at the Pillars of Destruction must cooperate with the Great Void. Even the ten halls are no exception.”
Elder Ming De was slightly surprised by the Great Void’s attitude. He asked, “The Sacred Temple values the ten Pillars of Destruction so much?”
It had never been like this in the past.
“Times have changed. This matter is of great importance, and we cannot be careless. I still have important matters to attend to. You can explain it to Emperor Yu yourself,” Jiang Wenxu said. Then, he lowered his voice before he continued to say, “I suspect this girl possesses the Great Void Seed. You know
the Great Void values the seeds the most. You must think this over carefully.”
After Jiang Wenxu finished speaking, he cupped his fists together at Elder Ming De and deliberately said in a loud voice, “Please forgive me for not being able to greet Emperor Yu. Please convey my greetings. I’ll take my leave now.”
“May I know where Dao Saint Jiang is going?” Elder Ming De asked.
“The Great Void is short of manpower. I’ve been ordered by the Temple Master to go to the nine domains to have a look. Do you have any suitable candidates in mind?” Jiang Wenxu asked.
Elder Ming De said, “There’s the few Venerable Masters from the green lotus domain. Chen Fu and his disciples are also decent talents.”
Jiang Wenxu did not think much of Elder Ming De’s recommendations. He scoffed lightly before he said, “That Chen Fu used the twin lotus domain as a bargaining chip and threatened the Great Void. He doesn’t want to have anything to do with the Great Void. The Temple Master has already punished him.
He won’t be able to live for long. His disciples are indeed talented, but they’re displeasing to the eye.”
After Jiang Wenxu finished speaking, he tumed around and left.
After confirming that Jiang Wenxu had left, Elder Ming De said angrily, “How despicable! You actually schemed against me! Without my Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction holding up the sky, where would you be?”
Although Elder Ming De was angry, he still needed to do as he was told.
“The Great Void Seed…” Elder Ming De muttered to himself. He regretted not carefully examining that little girl’s cultivation earlier.
In the cultivation world, there was a common belief that those with extremely fast cultivation speed had something to do with the Great Void Seeds or the Great Void energy. Based on this, one could see how precious the Great Void Seeds were.
Elder Ming De paced back and forth in the hall for a long time as he muttered to himself, “There has to be an explanation for Hong Jian’s death. If I can capture the girl, I can also give Emperor Yu an explanation.”
Meanwhile, Lu Zhou, Little Yuan’er, and Conch arrived near a vast forest near the Great Abyss Land and met up with the others from the Evil Sky Pavilion.
‘The others welcomed them back with joyful expressions on their faces.
“Pavilion Master.”
“Master.”
After Lu Zhou landed, he asked, “Is everyone okay?”
Yu Zhenghai said, “We evacuated in time when we saw an indescribably huge beast circling the Great Abyss Land’s Pillar of Destruction. Its speed wasn’t very fast so we weren’t in any danger.”
Lu Zhou looked at Kong Wen and asked, “Kong Wen, do you know what beast that was?”
Kong Wen replied, “According to ancient Fierce Beast Records, there aren’t many fierce beasts that size. There’s Kun in the Endless Ocean, Zhuzhao in the core area of the Unknown Land, and Yinlong in the Great Void. Meng Zhang can be considered one as well, but it was not mentioned in the records. I
couldn’t see it clearly through the thick fog at that time.”
“Kun? Master said that it’s an Equalizer!” Zhu Honggong said.
“According to ancient records, Kun can manifest a pair of wings that span 90,000 miles. If it’s an Equalizer, there’s a chance it’ll return to the Great Abyss Land,” Kong Wen said.
