Chapter 501 - 501 510 A Token 4th Update

501: Chapter 510: A Token (4th Update) 501: Chapter 510: A Token (4th Update) “Big brother, I implore you to help me,” the young woman pleaded.

“This is my master’s uncle’s token.

If you deliver it to the Heavenly Court, and if my master’s uncle is still alive in this world, he will surely come to my rescue.

I will never forget your life-saving grace.”

Although Xue Ji couldn’t move, she was still able to open the Sumeru Space, and a token fell out, subtly grasped by the bird-demon-man.

At that moment, Xue Ji transformed into her true White Fox form, by now already restrained and taken away by the Daoist from the Green Mountains.

“Ha-ha, the fur of a White Fox Clan female is indeed a top-tier treasure.”

In high spirits, the Daoist from the Green Mountains didn’t even spare the bird-demon-man a glance, but instead he restrained Xue Ji and shot off towards the vast Heaven and Earth.

As the Daoist from the Green Mountains departed, the bird-demon-man was drenched in cold sweat.

It was only after dozens of breaths had passed that he realized there was an additional token in his hand.

The token was neither gold nor iron nor wood.

Engraved on the front were the sun, moon, and stars, and on the back, the words ‘Emperor Dongji’ were inscribed.

“Emperor Dongji?”

The bird-demon-man muttered to himself, for he had never heard this name.

Hidden away in cultivation for tens of thousands of years, he naturally wouldn’t know of the time when Ye Xuan, as Emperor Dongji, once stirred up the Three Realms with his shocking deeds.

Furthermore, for three thousand five hundred years, the title of Emperor Dongji had rarely been mentioned, as Ye Xuan now held the prestigious rank of Heavenly Emperor, and naturally, no one referred to him by his previous title anymore.

And, as for this bird-demon-man, being a mere Little Demon who spent his days in fear and cultivation deep in the mountains, he naturally knew nothing of Ye Xuan’s former title.

To go, or not to go?

The bird-demon-man’s face was grave.

He was inclined to toss the token aside.

After all, how could a Little Demon like himself dare to venture to the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven?

He feared that he wouldn’t even make it into the Heavenly Court before being slain by the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals he would encounter on the way.

“Your luck is truly unfortunate, young girl; there is nothing I can do to help you.”

The bird-demon-man carelessly threw the token on the ground and mounted a beam of demon light, swiftly escaping deeper into the mountains.

Clearly, as a being of the Mystic Immortal Realm, he was hard-pressed to ensure his own survival, let alone help Xue Ji.

Time flowed like water, and an hour passed by.

Suddenly, a loud swooshing sound pierced the air, and as the demon light faded, the figure of the bird-demon-man reappeared.

The bird-demon-man had surprisingly turned back, yet his face betrayed an extremely awkward expression.

Nonetheless, he picked up the token once more.

“Alas, let it be.

Though I’ve only met this young girl briefly, we are both of the Demon Race.

I couldn’t remain untroubled if I just stood by and let her die.

I will just hand over the token to the Heavenly Soldiers, and the rest has nothing to do with me.”

The bird-demon-man murmured to himself and mounted a cloud of demon energy, heading straight for the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven.

To reach the Heavenly Court, he must first traverse ten thousand miles of raging winds and thundering fires to arrive at the South Heavenly Gate, where every day Heavenly Soldiers and Generals would be stationed outside the tumultuous path.

Today was the day when one of the Twenty-Eight Constellations, the Kui Wolf Star, led a hundred Heavenly Soldiers standing guard, patrolling along the ten thousand miles of raging winds and thundering fires.

“How audacious, demon!”

Suddenly, a Heavenly Soldier bellowed angrily, with his golden spear radiating Immortal Light, freezing the bird-demon-man in the void.

His Golden Immortal Cultivation was unmistakable, making the bird-demon-man tremble with fear, clearly regretting his decision deeply.

“Immortal…

I had no intention of offending the Immortal…

Someone merely entrusted me to present a token to the Heavenly Court.

I beseech the Immortal to judge,” the bird-demon-man pleaded, hastily presenting the token in his hands to the Heavenly Soldier, and then knelt down in the void, his posture the epitome of humility.

“What token?”

The Heavenly Soldier looked disdainful and casually took the Token, reading the four large characters on it.

“Emperor Dongji?”

“Hmph!”

The Heavenly Soldier coldly huffed and said, “You little demon, our Heavenly Court doesn’t have any…”

“Hand over the Token to me.”

Suddenly, before the Heavenly Soldier could scold the demon bird-man, a stern voice came, startling the Heavenly Soldier, his complexion drastically changed.

No longer paying attention to the demon bird-man, he hurriedly carried the Token toward the star of Kui Lang.

“Lord Kui Lang!”

The Heavenly Soldier bowed deeply, quickly presenting the Token to Kui Lang star, which made Kui Lang star quickly take it into his hands and examine the Token over and over.

His expression gradually became frantic.

Kui Lang star, with his roots as one of the seventy-two Cave Demon Kings of Huaguo Mountain, had even followed Ye Xuan in the past.

How could he not recognize the name of Emperor Dongji?

Moreover, the Token in his hand was indeed an item of the Heavenly Court, which made Kui Lang star certain that this Token was absolutely genuine.

“Immortal asks you, where did you obtain this Token?”

Kui Lang star was no longer composed; his face full of panic, without a trace of the Heavenly Immortal’s usual demeanor, he appeared directly in front of the demon bird-man, anxiously questioning him.

The demon bird-man could fully sense Kui Lang star’s nervousness, which made him pause in surprise.

Could it be that this Token truly belonged to some great personage?

“To report to the Immortal, a White Fox lady gave this to me to deliver to the Heavenly Court.

She said that Emperor Dongji is her martial great uncle…” The demon bird-man did not dare to delay, rapidly explaining the situation.

“You must come with me to the Heavenly Court immediately.”

After hearing the demon bird-man’s account, Kui Lang star’s expression dramatically changed.

Regardless of whether this person was telling the truth or not, the Token of Emperor Dongji was genuine.

If this White Fox lady truly was the niece of the Heavenly Emperor, and if he were to delay this matter, he would certainly be punished by the Heavenly Emperor, a blame he could not afford to bear.

Thinking of the fearsome Ye Xuan, Kui Lang star’s eyes filled with reverence.

He seized the demon bird-man, and the cultivation of the Luotian Mystic Immortal exploded forth, entering into a realm of ten thousand miles of fierce wind, thunder, and fire with the demon bird-man.

Through the ten thousand miles of fierce wind, thunder, and fire lay the South Heavenly Gate, which leads to the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven.

On this journey, Kui Lang star rushed frenetically, not even greeting the Four Great Heavenly Kings, and hurriedly made his way toward Dou Niu Palace.

Dou Niu Palace!

Ye Xuan had been in seclusion for five hundred years.

After these five hundred years, the Heavenly Court’s new power structure had finally stabilized, and its overall strength had climbed to a terrifying level, far surpassing the Heavenly Court once ruled by the Jade Emperor.

And all the affairs of the Heavenly Court were consulted between Shen Gongbao and Gold Star Taibai, unless there were particularly significant matters that needed to be reported to Ye Xuan.

Common issues were naturally handled by the two of them.

“How dare you, audacious Kui Lang, barge into Dou Niu Palace?

If you disturb the Heavenly Emperor’s cultivation, how could you bear the responsibility?” When Kui Lang star arrived on a cloud with the demon bird-man, Gold Star Taibai quietly blocked their way, loudly scolding him.

“Inform the Heavenly Emperor at once; I have an urgent message to report to the Heavenly Emperor.” Kui Lang star’s face was full of urgency, no longer having the patience to explain to Gold Star Taibai.

“The Heavenly Emperor has decreed that unless it’s an extremely urgent matter, no one should disturb him.

Whatever it is, you can just tell me.” Gold Star Taibai frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Kui Lang star’s impetuous behavior.
