Chapter 1010: Chapter 1012 Heaven-set Phoenix Star (6)

For a time, time seemed to stand still in the hall, and the entire palace was so quiet that only Emperor Jin Ming’s excited breathing could be heard.

Master Li Guo, suppressing his exhilarant heart, deeply kowtowed to the Old Turtle and bowed, "Great Immortal, it has been a long time!"

His voice trembled with excitement, his heartbeat unceasing. This Divine Beast had been personally trained by his grandmaster, who was a peer of his own master, which made this creature, in essence, his grand-uncle!

The Old Turtle slowly nodded, as if to greet him.

Master Li Guo humbly said, "Great Immortal, I have dared to ask the Great Immortal to come here because I was commanded today to divine this girl’s fortune, yet no matter what, I could not discern her fate. This matter is of great importance, thus I specially invited the Great Immortal to point out the obscurities in my understanding; I hope the Great Immortal takes no offense."

The Old Turtle listened, then turned its head and quietly observed Cai Wei for awhile before suddenly raising its claw, pointing first at Cai Wei, then towards the sky.

Master Li Guo exclaimed in surprise, "Great Immortal, are you saying this girl is from heaven?"

The Old Turtle nodded and then pointed at Emperor Jin Ming and Empress Mo, and again towards the sky.

"The Emperor and the Empress also come from heaven?" Master Li Guo asked.

This time, the Old Turtle shook its head, then pointed again at Emperor Jin Ming and Empress Mo, then at Cai Wei, and finally towards the heavens.

At some point, Emperor Jin Ming had stepped down from the Empress’s seat. Seeing the Old Turtle giving these half-riddles, he suddenly had an epiphany and said excitedly, "Great Immortal, are you saying that this girl is the daughter of Emperor Tian and the Empress Heavenly?!"

This time, the Old Turtle nodded in satisfaction and slowly shuffled its body to greet Cai Wei.

Suppressing a laugh, Cai Wei feigned a flattered expression and said, "I am the daughter of Scholar Mu Zhongqing from Qingyun Town, Yushu County; how could I possibly be the daughter of Emperor Tian? Could the Great Immortal have mistaken me for someone else?"

The Old Turtle pointed at her again, towards the sky, and nodded its head, indicating it had not made a mistake; she indeed was the daughter of Emperor Tian.

Master Li Guo suddenly realized and exclaimed, "So this girl is a princess from heaven who descended to experience the mortal world, no wonder I, a mere mortal, could not see her destiny. Ah, my cultivation is indeed too shallow; I almost made a grave mistake!"

"Exactly, exactly," Emperor Jin Ming echoed as if mimicking, "It is all thanks to the Great Immortal’s guidance; otherwise we mere mortals would have caused a great disaster!" Saying this, he looked at Cai Wei with reverence. The sight made Cai Wei incredibly proud!

The Old Turtle nodded towards Emperor Jin Ming and gave a lofty glance at everyone, seemingly satisfied with the completion of its mission, ready to disappear.

Sensing its intention, Emperor Jin Ming quickly stepped forward and with a ’splash,’ knelt in front of the Old Turtle and cried out, "Great Immortal, please wait, I have been afflicted with a rare poison and my life is soon to end, I beg for the Great Immortal’s salvation!"

Having said this, he fervently kowtowed, leaving Cai Wei utterly astounded.

The high and mighty Emperor, who had just harbored a killing intent towards her, was now, like a devout believer, kowtowing to her Old Turtle... the scene was... truly... hilariously ironic!

Ha ha ha, Cai Wei was just about to laugh when the Old Turtle communicated with her telepathically, "Master, shall we save him?"

"If you can save him, then save him. We on Fu You Island embrace compassion; how can we stand by and watch someone die?" Cai Wei answered.

With Cai Wei’s permission, the Old Turtle slowly made its way to Emperor Jin Ming, who, seeing the Immortal Turtle willing to save him, was overjoyed and crawled on his knees to the Old Turtle’s side, looking at it with full anticipation.

The Old Turtle pointed at his arm, extended its claw towards him, indicating it would take his pulse.

Emperor Jin Ming hurriedly stretched out his arm, laying it in front of the Old Turtle.
