Chapter 1388: Chapter 811: One Step, Two Gaps, I Am Messenger Soldier_3

He seemed to be bidding farewell to everyone, but at the moment the words fell, Shenxu Ancestor from the Ten Thousand Demon Hall already held the Sealed Jade Scroll, using the master’s Tribulation Power as a cover, quietly fleeing towards East Sumeru.

This great tribulation should still stop at the East Continent.

...

Late at night, everything was silent.

Two women stood outside the hall.

"Lady." Shi Mu carried the Jade Purification Bottle, her expression somewhat worried. Though they were from the same sect, those figures flying out aimed to destroy the Human World raised by her master with his own hand.

"You should return to the mansion first, don’t get involved in worldly matters anymore."

Lady Houtu gently stroked the disciple’s hair, softly saying, "There are still things I haven’t figured out; once I’ve resolved them, I’ll return."

"Master..." Shi Mu unusually changed her address, which showed the unease in her heart.

Now only one Cultivator remained in Nanping Prefecture, yet the Lady lingered until now; it was already quite obvious who she intended to search for.

That Master Yu Yu, who fought for the Three Immortals Sect, earned the respect of all Immortals, yet it inversely plunged the world into chaos again... Though this outcome was inevitable, merely a matter of time, he indeed couldn’t completely escape responsibility.

Shi Mu feared that the Lady might act impulsively and do something irrational.

Houtu Emperor’s Mansion had already occupied a rather awkward position in this world, squeezed by two sects from above, and antagonized by the Red Dust from below, whatever it did would surely displease both sides.

If the Lady impulsively strikes at Master Yu Yu, the consequences would simply be unimaginable.

Currently, he wasn’t just a simple Golden Immortal; at least before being annihilated by the Immortal Oath, he was the rightful leader of all Immortals, bearing the fate of the Great Sect.

"Rest assured, I’m not a lunatic."

Lady Houtu smiled helplessly, waving her sleeve to send off the disciple.

After watching the disciple leave Nanping Prefecture, she then turned around to face the young man who had just walked out of the hall.

The two stared at each other for a moment.

Shen Yi indeed felt somewhat puzzled; he had been deliberately avoiding this Emperor, thus waiting all along for her to leave, but didn’t expect Lady Houtu to purposely wait for him.

Realizing he couldn’t avoid her, he reluctantly emerged.

Shen Yi couldn’t believe that, as an esteemed Emperor, she would be unwise enough to act against him, yet he couldn’t think of other reasons.

This time, Lady Houtu did not offer any advice nor propose any exchanges.

She simply gave the young man a serious look, then turned around saying, "I’ll send you back."

Just as she mentioned earlier, she planned to follow her original intention.

Lady Houtu initially thought Shen Yi stood on the side unexpected by everyone.

Of course, even if she guessed wrong again, it was fine; she would simply repay the kindness he once showed to the people.

"..."

Shen Yi paused for a moment.

He didn’t need to fear this Emperor as much as before now.

Since at the moment Shenxu Ancestor sent the Jade Slip into East Sumeru Mountain, those monks would never just watch the Immortals leave the East Continent. Driven by their original resentment, the Three Immortals Sect’s actions would undoubtedly shatter their last shred of reason.

The East Continent would face an unprecedented slaughter.

The situation the Human Emperor desired would come naturally.

What happened next was beyond what a Second Grade Cultivator like him could intervene.

In such a situation, Shen Yi’s greatest threat became the ten Fruit Positions disappearing from the Heavenly Dao. Once the True Buddhas discovered this, he would surely face death without a burial.

He was not afraid of death; otherwise, he wouldn’t have personally entered the tribulation.

But if he could survive, it would undoubtedly be best, after all, he wished to see what path the Human Emperor could carve out for the Red Dust.

"Thank you, Emperor."

Shen Yi hesitated for a moment, then chose not to refuse, and followed her cloud riding away into the sky.
