Chapter 1311 - Di Cang’s Provocation (4)”
Chapter 1311 “Di Cang’s Provocation (4)”
“So…” Keeper Ling seemingly calms down somewhat in his voice, “I, Keeper Zun and Keeper Hyun will go together. The others here will remain in the palace in case anything happens.”
The others didn’t object to the idea after some thought and felt it reasonable. Though they did have opinions about the matter, but they too understood there weren’t any better options.
“Keeper Ling, when will we set out then?” Keeper Hyun who normally don’t speak up asks after slowly getting off the seat.
“We will set off now since the demon king set the date to be three days from now.” The grumpy keeper snickers a sneer at the impending gathering.
In Keeper Ling’s view, it would greatly hurt the Celestial Palace’s credibility if they refused the invitation. Moreover, he also needs to confirm it in person if that demon king was the real deal or some fake!
“But…” Keeper Hyun pauses over his own words, “What if this matter becomes known to the Celestial Lord. How do we solve that?”
Celestial Lord….
The room turned silent over that title and grew unnervingly creepy in the air.
“Do you really think that the Celestial Lord loves that woman to that extent?” Clenching his fist until it’s making a crunching sound, Keeper Ling’s anger started to boil over again, “Do you think he will go that far for her?”
Isn’t that the case?
Despite the firm belief from the elder, the others in the room weren’t so sure on this topic. After all, the Celestial Lord did and continued to leave them for a thousand years just for her, that’s a fact.
“Hoho, you are all foolish.” Snickering a grin, Keeper Ling went ahead to explain his reasoning: “Did you forget how we won the war back then? For the sake of this world, for the sake of the Celestial Realm, the Lord abandoned her back then! And for the same reasoning, he will do it again!”
That’s right, the Lord has the world in his heart, there’s no way he would abandon everyone for the sake of a single woman.
That finally settled the matter for the rest of the Keepers. Sure, they are in agreement one woman couldn’t possibly compare to the whole wide world, but they are also aware of how much regret that incident back then caused Chu Yi God..
Keeper Ling didn’t care for what the opinion was at this point, he only wants to see it for himself. Walking out of the room, he snarls sarcastically: “Demon King, I like to see how much ability you have left after a thousand years!”
This time, even if the Lord tries to stop me, I must send the Demon Realm and its foul abominations into destruction!
……
Regarding the date set three days later, Di Cang actually didn’t send it directly to the Celestial Palace, rather it’s to the entire Celestial Realm. Even if these Keepers respected their Celestial Lord, their pride and esteem would never allow them to ignore the provocation.
At this moment not far from the Celestial Palace, a certain teal dragon was hovering above the sky, its head carrying a majestic white tiger while flying.
“White Tiger, Mistress said the place should be here…” Tsing Yi the Azure Dragon gazes down at the open land with cold harshness, “This is the bordering area around the Celestial Palace with lots of disciples living here. You say, what if we destroy this place, what will those people feel?”
“Isn’t it obvious? Those bastards will probably come chasing us once they find out we trashed their territory.” Little Rice proudly proclaims, his appearance mighty and strong in his grown teenage form. “But I’m a good tiger, I always listen to Mistress. Since she doesn’t like this place, I’m going to ruin this area for her sake!”
The thought of two years ago where Bai Yan suddenly removed the connection between himself and her still lingered in the tiger’s heart. So, right after he got word from her to attack this place, this loyal cat wasted no time to come here.
