Martialism
Chapter 77's
They sat in two rows and faced the Jade Emperor.
There were beautiful wines and scented foods but Yi Ping's mind was preoccupied with many questions.
Yi Ping was curious as to why the Sky Emperor's eyes were now red, but not before. And of course, what's going on around here? Previously, he had expected a deadly duel with the Dark Celestials, but now he was actually sitting with them in the same hall!
Now that Yi Ping had found Lele, he was relieved that he was safe but at the same time he felt awkward. It was because he found himself sitting opposite to Celestial Liege, an opponent he had fought twice.
At the same time, this did not help him at all when Shen Xingyue, Youxue, Lie Qing, and Lele were all cold to him. It was because Yu’Er and Mei’Er were deliberating sitting beside her and not giving others a chance to approach her!
Lele sounded mumbled, “I don't mind at all. I am a very accomplished Heavenly.”
However, he was cold and he was cold towards Yi Ping.
Shen Xingyue and Lie Qing never even glanced at him and they purposely chatted happily with each other as if he wasn't there!
Youxue was wrapped in his cold demeanor, not talking to anyone but Yunzi.
The Celestial Liege also looked at Yi Ping awkwardly.
It was because both Lie Qing and Youxue refused to see him and also pretended he was not there.
Ye Ling whispered to him, “It seems you think highly of the two girls.”
The Celestial Liege smiled bitterly, “I don't.”
Ye Ling turned around calmly, “You lied ..”
When he was about to rebuke him further, the Celestial Emperor had interrupted him and said to everyone. “Welcome to Heavenly Palace. I hope this banquet is fun for everyone.”
The Heavenly Palace Banquet was more than extraordinary. In fact, none of them had ever seen a grand feast like this. There were all kinds and types of aromatic foods placed on the table one by one by dozens of waiters!
Only Yixian and Shen Xingyue were unmoved.
They are satisfied with simple and vegan food so they are not tempted.
Although Yu’Er and Mei’Er are also vegans, their eyes shine on the honey and aromatic wine on display!
Lingfeng was silent and lamented to herself gently, but no one knew what was on her mind.
The Celestial Emperor said to the guests, “Now, you should have gotten acquainted with the three Major Celestials of the Celestial Palace, the Goddess of Joy, the Heavenly Liege and the Confession Woman.”
The Confession Lady was of course referring to Ye Ling.
Ye Ling smiled as she winked sheepishly at Yi Ping, “I am new as Prime Celestial. My experience and martial skills are not as much as my predecessors.”
Yi Ping noticed the blink of his eyes and smiled bitterly as he thought, “Lele has told me in advance that in order for one to be appointed as the Prime Celestial, he said, they had to be extraordinary martial exponents and have the support of the elders or the others.it would be difficult for them to keep their promises within the Heavenly Palace. He was not from the same clan as Lele yet he was a Heavenly Master. Does that mean he has to have extraordinary skills or is that impossible?”
The Celestial Emperor looked at Yi Ping wryly as he said, “There are many others here but they are sleeping. When I get the chance, I'll introduce you to them. You definitely have a lot of questions to ask me, don't you? Maybe I can dispel the doubts in your mind.”
Yi Ping asked bluntly, “Why aren't your eyes red? Are you a Dark Celestial? Are you all Dark Celestials?”
Celestial Emperor laughed, “Internal martial arts practitioners are able to suppress their internal strength and even their level of divinity. Therefore, this is by no means a real surprise.”
Lingfeng nodded.
Shen Xingyue was speechless. That's because it's easier said than done. Although his Divine Rejuvenation Force was an incredible internal skill, it was not like the absorbing skill of the Celestial Force that could suppress even the martial power of the practitioner himself. In addition, to be able to do so is an indication of the level of the practitioner. Even for Celestial Liege and Lele, they were unable to achieve that.
Yi Ping could only groan softly hearing that.
Jade Emperor added a smile after noticing Yi Ping expression, “Am I a Dark Heavenly? What say?”
Yi Ping turned to look at Celestial Liege and Ye Ling before he sighed, “I really don't know.”
He was also unsure and did not dare to make a quick judgement!
The Celestial Emperor sighed softly before saying, “I would almost be the Dark Heavenly if not for the timely arrival of Huan Lie.”
Huan Lie was the real name of Celestial Liege.
The Celestial Emperor said solemnly, “To become a Heavenly, first know how to cultivate as a human sage. That's what Huan Lie told me ..”
He stole a glance at Lie Qing who nodded silently at him before saying, “Without the timely advice of Maiden Lie Qing to Huan Lie, I will turn into a Dark Heavenly. Heavenly Palace and the Undefeated God Clan had been sworn enemies to him.a long time ago.”.
Lie Qing interrupted casually, “That was in the past.”
He pretended not to care but he was actually still grieving over the death of his clan or he would have already forgiven Huan Lie.
The Celestial Emperor could sense that he did not want to bring up the past so he said, “That requires a lot of determination. I almost perished in my Divine Disaster a year ago and the advice sustained me to the end. But I cannot say the same for many of us here.”
The Jade Emperor was suddenly grim and his eyes were melancholic.
In the past year alone, more than half of the Heavenly Palace's proteges had been killed and many of them were actually killed by him!
One year ago, the Celestial Emperor said to them. “From now on, I will no longer help you in your Divine Disaster or it will damage your future cultivation. Everyone has to die in the end. Many of you have extended your life long enough at the expense of others. What we cannot forgive easily.We have to go back now and fix the mistake we made.”
It caused quite a stir and soon the Heavenly Palace split into two warring factions.
These Dark Celestials who had escaped would one day pose new problems for the martial fraternity; their secret martial knowledge would make them formidable enemies!
The Celestial Emperor explained to Yi Ping patiently that from now on, the remnants of the Heavenly Palace would start the right path and would not do anything that was considered unrighteous in the martial fraternity.
When he said that, even Celestial Liege and Ye Ling were both serious. It was because unlike the Celestial Emperor who had managed to overcome the Divine Disaster through his own efforts, the Dark Celestials of the Celestial Palace had not done so. When the time came for Divine Disaster to befall them, most of them would not survive!
That was why many of the Dark Celestials from the Heavenly Palace resisted the call of the Celestial Emperor to start a new path and even rebelled!
It was because this new path was a self-destructed path that could spell the end for them!
After hearing this story from the Celestial Emperor, Yi Ping's heart began to calm down and his hostility towards the Heavenly Palace disappeared. Similar to Lie Qing, the Yi Ping martial clan had a grudge against the Heavenly Palace.
In fact, he was also slightly respectful towards the Celestial Emperor who had taken drastic measures to correct his mistake. He knew that most of the Dark Celestials in Celestial Palace were actually his relatives and therefore it was a painful decision for him.
Celestial Emperor tried to melt the atmosphere by changing the conversation, “For so many years, the Heavenly Palace was the most powerful martial clan as well as the most powerful heavenly clan in the fraternity. But now, that's not the problem.”
Yi Ping asked curiously, “Surely this is still the most powerful clan in the fraternity? The Heavenly Palace martial skill is also the quintessence of the fraternity martial skill.”
The Celestial Emperor said solemnly, “You may not know that there are also many other heavenly clans in the fraternity, right?”
Yi Ping was surprised, “There are other heavenly clans in the martial fraternity?”
The Celestial Emperor said, “Indeed there are many heavenly clans in the fraternity but in order to ascend as quickly as possible, most of the heavenly clans do not wish to interfere in the affairs of the martial fraternity. I know that there are at least two prominent heavenly practitioners in the Universal Truth Sect and the Infinity Sword Clan.”
Yi Ping was surprised, “Klan Infinity Sword also has a heavenly practitioner?”
Sky Emperor is serious, “There may be more but the majority of the Eternity Sword Clan may not be aware of their presence. But they may soon announce their presence to you.”
Yi Ping grew even more confused as he muttered, “Hah?”
The Celestial Emperor pointed towards Shen Xingyue, “He has taken their Blue Sky Divine Sword. It was not something that they would give up easily even if they were extremely accomplished heavenly practitioners who had no mortal desires.”
Shen Xingyue said coldly, “That's not something I would hand over easily either!”
The Celestial Emperor smiled at him, “I was expecting it too. I have heard that Maiden Shen is also a secret heavenly practitioner of the Honor Manor and your level is also quite high. I want to exchange hints with you sometimes.”
Shen Xingyue pretended not to hear. Even though he didn't show it, he still held a grudge against her for putting his hands on it when they fought before!
Yi Ping was starting to understand more and more now. Even though Shen Xingyue was Han Shaodong's protege's mistress, she never expected that her mistress was a heavenly practitioner and was completely shocked when she realized it!
Yi Ping thought, “It seems that even the heavenly practitioners do not trust them alone. Unfortunately, this conflict and bloodshed, when will it end? It seems easier to guard against an enemy than a friend. These heavenly practitioners would do so. It was better to endure many years of solitude than to risk their many years of heavenly cultivation being destroyed by treachery. But of course if there are other secret heavenly practitioners in the fraternity, then there should also be dark heavenly practitioners that they should be aware of.. “
The Jade Emperor added, “In addition to the secret existence of the celestial clan, the martial skills of the various martial clans cannot be underestimated either. Take for example, the secret skills of the Virtue Palace and the Eternal Ice Palace among many others. . Who knows, this clan might as well have their own secret heavenly practitioner somewhere.”
Yixian immediately raised her eyebrows as she began to tremble lightly as she thought, “There are others like me from the Eternal Ice Palace? Where are they?”
The Celestial Emperor looked at Yi Ping before saying, “Hand of Divine Horizon cannot be underestimated either.”
He paused for a moment to look at everyone, lingering at Lele before saying. “The Heavenly Palace does not have high ambitions to dominate the martial fraternity unlike the Dark Heavenly. On the other hand, the Heavenly Palace had many fears of a heretical sect led by the Dark Heavens especially from those who previously came from the Celestials. Palaces. They know too much and may cooperate with our enemies for their own benefit.”
Melancholic catfish as she muttered, “Grandfather, don't be sad ..”
The Jade Emperor smiled fondly at Lele before he said, “You have grown up and have become a true celestial. I have no other doubts. But remember, the upper realms are much more dangerous than the martial realms here. Grandpa can no longer take care of you. There are many other heavenly practitioners out there and it is a place I hope to visit someday. So don't die there.”
Lele threw his face away calmly. It was because he did not want his grandfather to see his calm tears.
The Celestial Emperor turned around and looked at Yi Ping attentively, “So take care of Lele and I will look after your son for you. One day, we can meet again.”
Yi Ping stuttered, “You are willing to lend us the Heavenly Relic?”
Heavenly Relics are precious artifacts. No one wants to just give it away!
Sky Emperor nodded, “Although in the past I have gone through a lot of difficulties to obtain it and it is also important to me, but I believe that your goal is more valuable.”
She smiled wryly as she looked at Lingfeng, “What an amazing girl. I may not know who you really are due to my stupidity, but I hope that one day when I can move to the Heavenly Realm, you will be able to lend me money. After all, I may be a powerful celestial here, but I cannot say the same when I am on the other side.
Lele had already told him that Ji Lingfeng was actually a heavenly practitioner and that her heavenly name was Heavenly.
In fact, Lingfeng had previously shown Lele what was wrong with the complicated formula of the Heavenly Power and had even resolved some of the complicated difficulties that plagued the heavenly practitioners of the Heavenly Palace. Lele had used some of the knowledge gained to help her grandfather solve his own predicament.
The Jade Emperor was astonished that Lingfeng knew so much about the various complicated formulas. That was why he was willing to give Yi Ping the Heavenly Relic. But that's not the main and only reason.
He was only satisfied that Lele could go to the Heavenly Realm and that he could fulfill his lifelong dream for her. Although she was secretly reluctant and afraid, she did not want to reveal it to him. It was because there must be a reason strong enough that only prepared heavenly practitioners were allowed there. Deep down, he knew that Yi Ping and the others were not ready yet, but he was also unwilling to break their spirits.
Lingfeng trembled lightly. He looked at the Jade Emperor carefully with ****** softly, “You, you are really willing to lend us the Heavenly Relic?”
The Celestial Emperor laughed and confirmed his reply, “Why not?”
Lingfeng nodded in appreciation. Words can't describe her gratitude!
Sky Emperor suddenly became serious, “But there is one thing that makes me curious. I have heard that when a heavenly practitioner moves to the Heavenly Realm, metal materials are destroyed in the process and sometimes in rare circumstances, metal residues such as Heavenly Relics will be left behind when precious metals are destroyed.”
He looked at Yujian, Meijian, Yixian, Shen Xingyue, Lele and Lie Qing with curious gazes, “Heavenly weapons and Heavenly Relics will not be destroyed but also unable to transmigrate together with the heavenly practitioners. But from what I know of Lele, the reason why you need the Heavenly Relic is to replace it as a divine weapon to form the Celestial Star Formation so that transmigration to the Heavenly Realm will be possible. Surely you didn't think to give me all these divine weapons and the Heavenly Relics afterwards?”
Lingfeng smiled mysteriously, “What do you think?”
