Yun Cheâs words immediately drew everyoneâs attention . Mu Xuanyin frowned and said, âCheâer, this has nothing to do with the medical arts . Do not speak lightly . â
âOh?â The Eternal Heaven God Emperor turned to look at Yun Che before chuckling . âThis old one is very glad to hear your concern . However, the Evil Infantâs power is nothing you can imagine . Donât worry, I will find another way . â
Yun Che stopped talking and raised his palm . An instant later, a white profound light brimming with holy power had appeared in his palm .
White-colored profound light was extremely common, and an ordinary profound practitioner wouldnât have been moved in the slightest by the display . However, the six people surrounding Yun Che were made up of two god emperors, two realm kings, and two newly made Divine Masters who had spent three thousand years cultivating in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, and they all sensed a âholyâ aura inside the profound light!
Even Mu Xuanyin and Xia Qingyue were trembling with shock . The Eternal Heaven God Emperor stiffened from head to toe before turning to look at Yun Che . âYou⌠thisâŚâ
âShen Xi⌠Senior Shen Xi isnât the only one who possesses the light profound energy,â Yun Che said calmly while enduring the shocked looks everyone was shooting him . âFour years ago, during my time in the Dragon God Realm, Shen Xi⌠ahem⌠Senior Shen Xi realized that I was compatible with light profound energy and taught me the Radiant Divine Art as a result . â
Xia Qingyue and Mu Xuanyin looked at each other at the same time . It was clear from the shock and puzzlement in each otherâs eyes that they had no idea about Yun Cheâs possession of the light profound energy .
Mu Xuanyin had been the Snow Song Realm King for ten thousand years, and Xia Qingyue had inherited every Moon God Emperorâs memories and knowledge . Therefore, they knew full well what the âlight profound energyâ was, and that Shen Xi was the only light profound energy profound practitioner in the entire world . It was because the cultivation of the light profound energy was extremely stringentâit demanded its wielder to possess a pure âholy bodyâ or a âholy heartâ .
But hereâs the question⌠What the hell did Yun Che have to do with either quality!?
âTo think that there would be such a thingâŚâ The Eternal Heaven God Emperor was completely stunned . He couldnât believe that profound light in Yun Cheâs hand was the light profound energy, and yet there was no faking light profound energyâs unique aura!
Yun Che continued, âThis junior owes Senior Shen Xi a favor, and I dare not reveal too much information without her permission . However, this junior is willing to give it a try if the light profound energy really is of use to senior . â
Shui Qianhengâs eyebrows wriggled up and down as he muttered to himself unconsciously, âThis boy⌠is a complete monster⌠He was offered refuge by the Dragon Queen herself? This⌠this is justâŚâ
He did not even know how to begin to describe the shock in his heart .
Dragon Queen Shen Xi was someone that even the Eternal Heaven God Emperor couldnât meet without overcoming many obstacles, but Yun Che⌠was offered refuge by hers truly?!
âHeehee . â Shui Meiyin looked pretty happy though . âMy man has to be the most impressive person in the world, of course . â
â . . . â Shui Qianheng nodded dumbly at her comment .
The Eternal Heaven God Emperor walked forward and actually grabbed Yun Cheâs hands directly . He asked with clear excitement, âIs this⌠truly a gift from Dragon Queen Shen Xi?â
He knew immediately that he had asked a stupid question . There was only one person in the entire world who possessed light profound energy, so Yun Cheâs light profound energy could only have come from her .
âMn . â Yun Che nodded . Right now, he found the term âDragon Queenâ . . . extremely unpleasant to the ears .
In fact, even the title âSenior Shen Xiâ felt absolutely weird to say .
That being said⌠No one couldâve imagined what had happened between Shen Xi and him during that one year he spent in the Forbidden Land of Samsara, not even if every head in the God Realm were put together in one place . . .
The Eternal Heaven God Emperor clenched his hands slightly . It was clear that he was barely controlling his excitement . âYun Che, you are truly the miracle of the Eastern Divine Region . To think that a person with the light profound energy would appear in our world!â
âThe cultivators of the light profound energy must possess either a holy body or a holy heart . Although your body is unlike any other, your aura clearly isnât as holy and pure as the Dragon Queenâs . That can only mean that you are someone with a âholy heartâ . â The Eternal Heaven God Emperor continued to stare at Yun Che while praising, âThe owner of a pure heart is someone with an unblemished soul, a pity for the fate of mankind, and a heart that encompasses the whole world . They are also untainted by sin or the six worldly desires⌠You are talented beyond comprehension, and you have a holy heart no less . You truly are a blessing upon all of the Eastern Divine Region . â
Mu Xuanyin, â . . . â
Xia Qingyue, â . . . â
Shui Meiyin, â . . . â
Yun Che: â~ďź@#%âŚâŚâ (Who the f*ck is he talking about?)
âCough⌠cough coughâŚâ By now Yun Cheâs face was completely red, and his hands trembled with shame . He hurriedly said, âThis junior seriously doesnât deserve your praise, senior . Although I am capable of wielding light profound energy, my cultivation is ultimately weak and shallow . Therefore, I cannot guarantee a complete cure of your ailment . All I can do is to try my best, if you donât mind . â
âAlright . â This time, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor didnât turn down his offer . He nodded gladly as color entered his dark gray cheeks .
To him, the birth of a light profound practitioner in the Eastern Divine Region was something that was a hundred times more worth celebrating than a cure to his health .
Mu Xuanyin said immediately, âIn that case, let us move to the Ice Phoenix Palace, Eternal Heaven God Emperor . This junior shall guard you personally . â She sent word to Mu Bingyun immediately after that .
After Yun Che and the Eternal Heaven God Emperor had entered the Ice Phoenix Palace, Mu Xuanyin personally laid down a frost barrier around them .
Yun Che might not know exactly how to cure the dark devilish energy lurking inside the Eternal Heaven God Emperorâs body, but that wasnât an issue . The god emperor himself would be guiding him through the steps .
A terrible secret would draw another personâs attention and greed, but the light profound energy was unlike any other secret . It was a revelation that would shake the entire God Realm, but it wouldnât draw greed and envy like the Evil God divine power or the Sky Poison Pearl because it was something no one could take away from him . Instead, they would beg him to use his powers on them .
For example, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor would be owing Yun Che a great favor today .
When the barrier was complete, Mu Xuanyin instantly appeared in front of the Shui father and daughter and gave them her thanks . âXuanyin is very grateful for the Glazed Light Realm King and the little princessâ timely aid today . Since this is your first arrival, would you like to stay for a couple more days before returning home? Iâm sure that Snow Song Realmâs scenery will not disappoint you . â
Shui Qianheng smiled at her and said, âIt is already a boon to me to be able to witness your glory, Snow Song Realm King . I dare not trouble you with my presence any longer . HoweverâŚâ
âPlease, speak directly if you have any instructions, Glazed Light Realm King . â
âInstructions? I wouldnât dare . Itâs justâŚâ He looked at his daughter beside him . âI know that the Snow Song Realm King didnât enter the Eternal Heaven God Realm back then, but you might have heard that my daughter and Yun Che fell in love during battle and became engaged with one another during the Conferred God Battle . Their wedding is supposed to be completed after she was done cultivating in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm for three thousand years . â
After the Brahma Heaven God Emperor had suddenly declared his wish to marry the Brahma Monarch Goddess to Yun Che, Shui Qianheng had leaped to his feet and announced the engagement to everyone present . There was literally no one who hadnât heard of this in the Eastern Divine Region .
Later on, Shui Qianheng caught wind that Yun Che had perished in the Star God Realm . He thought in regret that Shui Meiyinâs affection for the boy wouldâve lessened or even faded outright after âthree thousand yearsâ . However, Shui Meiyin cried so hard that it was as if she would die then and there . It was only then that Shui Qianheng really knew that Shui Meiyin hadnât been playing around .
That was why he had brought up the engagement of his own accord .
âMy daughter was greatly saddened by the news of Yun Cheâs death, but now he is alive and well, I believe that the engagement from three years ago should be treated seriously⌠What do you think, Snow Song Realm King?â
â . . . â Mu Xuanyin stared at Shui Meiyin, and Shui Meiyin stared right back at her . Their eyes met each other briefly⌠and surprisingly, it was Mu Xuanyin who turned away first .
âI have a question for you, Little Glazed Light Princess,â Mu Xuanyin asked after looking away . âHow much contact did you have with Yun Che back at the Eternal Heaven God Realm?â
âHmmâŚâ Shui Meiyin thought for a moment before answering seriously, âNot much . He refused to speak with me too much, and he even seemed to be avoiding me on purpose⌠Hmph . â
Shui Qianheng, âCough cough coughâŚâ
Shui Meiyinâs interaction with Yun Che was in every sense of the word, shallow . In fact, the only true interaction they really had was the soul battle on the God Conferred Stage⌠After that, Shui Meiyin was the one who initiated every contact with Yun Che . She gave the impression to Yun Che and everyone else that she was a girl who had just awakened to love and was acting upon it like a lovestruck fool, and that her âpassionâ was something that was going to disappear sooner or later . âHas he given or done you anything thatâs unforgettable for you?â Mu Xuanyin asked again .
âNope!â Shui Meiyin answered without the slightest hesitation .
âIf you havenât interacted much with him, and he hasnât done anything for you before, then why are you going so far for him?â Mu Xuanyin frowned slightly, âYour affection for him lasted for three thousand years, and you came to see him immediately after you heard rumors of his survival . You even went so far as to bring your father with you⌠It canât be as simple as love at first sight, can it?â
â . . . â On the other side, Huo Poyun turned around and closed his eyes .
âWell, there is one very important reason,â Shui Meiyin said . âBack then, when I was about to beat Big Brother Yun during the soul battle, he had used a⌠very⌠bad⌠way to claim victory by surprise . Moreover, his soul imprint was left behind in my Stainless Divine Soul after a âreboundâ of some sort . â
Mu Xuanyin, â . . . â
âThatâs whyâŚâ Shui Meiyin smiled very warmly as she spoke . âThatâs why I thought about him every day, especially during the years spent in the Eternal Heaven God Realm . Cultivation is so dull and boring, but he would always appear during my happiest moments no matter how much time had passed . I never grew tired of them, and the joy I felt when I knew that I was finally going to leave the Eternal Heaven God Realm to see him was pretty much indescribable . â
â . . . â Mu Xuanyin was surprised by her reply . She frowned deeply and asked, âIf you know that, then why didnât you wipe out his soul imprint? Why did you allow it to interfere with your emotions?â
Interference with oneâs will was something no profound practitioner could endure, so why did Shui Meiyin look like she was enjoying it?
âWhy should I wipe it away?â Shui Meiyin countered with a smile . âI adore the feeling of thinking about someone and concerning myself with them . It is a kind of expecting, joyful, and happy feeling that no other feeling can possibly replace . I love it so, so much⌠Donât you like it as well?â
Her dark eyes looked like stars were sparkling in them when she said this .
âMeiyin, you canât speak so cheekily in front of a senior . â Shui Qianheng reprimanded her before turning to face Mu Xuanyin . âSnow Song Realm King, we still need to consult with Yun Che regarding the engagement, and heâs currently busy curing the Eternal Heaven God Emperor of the devilish energy, so I suppose weâll be staying untilâŚâ
âDaddy!â Shui Meiyin said suddenly, âLetâs return to Glazed Light Realm right now . â
Mu Xuanyin, â . . . ?â
âHuh?â Shui Qianheng was caught off guard by her declaration . âNow? But⌠the engagement⌠you havenât even spoken to him yet . Are you going to just leave?â
âHmph, he clearly is trying to avoid paying me too much attention,â Shui Meiyin muttered in a very tiny voice before replying, âMother said that a girl shouldnât be too forward when dealing with a man . She also said that a man wouldnât appreciate you too much unless you keep some distance from him . I must show that I can come to meet him without hesitation, and that I can turn around and leave just the same . Maybe then heâll think about me and remember me a little more . â
âMother also said thatâs what she did to daddy . Thatâs why mother has always been your most favorite . â
âMu Xuanyin, â . . . â
âBut⌠thisâŚâ Shui Qianheng was still trying to catch up to her logic .
âCome on, come on, letâs go . â Shui Meiyin pulled her fatherâs sleeves gently before she suddenly smiled at Mu Xuanyin . âSenior Mu, Iâm very happy and glad to know that Big Brother Yun has a good master like you . I know that my engagement with him has been a one-sided thing from the start, but I will work hard⌠and one day, I will make him fall in love with me . â
Who would believe that such words would come out of a seventh level Divine Masterâs mouth? . . . Even better, she was the youngest seventh level Divine master in the history of the God Realm . She was also the daughter of the Glazed Light Realm King, and the only person in the world to possess a Divine Stainless Soul . In the eyes of the world, she was slowly but surely becoming a daughter of the heaven on the same level as the Dragon Queen and Lady Goddess themselves .
âEr⌠Goodbye then . Goodbye . â
Just like that, Shui Qianheng was dragged away by Shui Meiyin .
