Chapter 1282: Chapter 787: Another Encounter with the Mysterious Lady Palace Prodigy
East Sea Island, East Sea Academy, with grand gates and long eaves, shrouded in mist, majestic and magnificent, bustling with Confucian Scholars, crowds bustling.
“Welcome fairies.”
Saint Zeng, one of the four Upper Doctors of the East Sea Academy, personally led the team to greet them, with Great Confucians of the Immortal Emperor Realm and Divine King Realm everywhere.
A gust of fresh wind breezed by, and hundreds of enchanting figures descended, their Flying Swords returning to the sheaths behind them. These fairies were mostly of extraordinary beauty, with bright eyes and graceful figures, captivating groups of young Confucian Scholars who could only stare dumbfounded.
“Is Palace Master Yan here?”
Among these fairies, a woman with an extremely beautiful face, pure and exquisite, wearing a water-green immortal dress, spoke in a gentle tone, refreshing as a spring breeze.
Saint Zeng respectfully replied, “The Palace Master was worried about any incidents, so she never left East Sea Island. The arrival of the Mysterious Lady Palace has relieved some of our East Sea Academy’s pressure. We have prepared guest rooms for the fairies to rest.”
“Master Zou and others have returned.”
A Confucian Scholar reminded Saint Zeng.
“It seems everything went smoothly for them, and they even brought guests.”
Saint Zeng gazed into the distance and recognized Master Zou and Lu Changsheng arriving via Sword Flight.
Those from the Mysterious Lady Palace also followed Saint Zeng’s gaze, looking towards the west.
The four Upper Doctors of the East Sea Academy are somewhat renowned in the Immortal Realm.
Saint Zou, having been in the Immortal Realm for some time, is now an Eighth Grade Great Power, a notable figure.
In the west, thousands of Confucian Scholars were riding Flying Swords back, and one team appeared rather peculiar with various magical treasures, including a large yellow dog basking on a gourd.
“It’s you?!”
The woman in the water-green immortal dress from the Mysterious Lady Palace and Lu Changsheng locked eyes, recognizing each other.
This woman, dressed in water-green, is the Mysterious Lady Palace’s first genius Yuexi, who sparred with Lu Changsheng at the Heavenly Court assembly!
“What are you doing here?”
Lu Changsheng retracted his Flying Sword, landing in the grand plaza of the East Sea Academy’s main hall.
“I came here on my master’s orders for a mission… but you, why are you here?”
“Immortal Yuexi, it was I who invited Lu here to the East Sea Academy as a guest.”
“You East Sea Academy are not afraid…”
Yuexi muttered.
Wherever Lu Changsheng went, significant events seemed to follow, yet East Sea Academy dared to invite him over.
Yuexi carefully observed Lu Changsheng, whose aura was becoming increasingly unfathomable, with an extraordinary and otherworldly temperament: “You’ve taken that step too?”
“Same to you.”
Lu Changsheng was also sizing up this Mysterious Lady Palace prodigy.
Yuexi, exceptionally talented, akin to a Goddess; only a few, like Xia Ningxue, could compare.
Not seen for years, Yuexi had been cultivating somewhere and had also broken through to the Immortal Realm.
The unparalleled prodigies of the eight Divine Palaces, all one in a hundred million outstanding talents.
The foundations of the eight Divine Palaces were far deeper than Lu Changsheng imagined, and during the turmoil of the Three Realms, the eight Divine Palaces were willing to invest resources, making the growth of their prodigies even more astonishing.
Yuexi’s master was Qiongxiao Sword Maiden, ranked third among the twelve swordswomen of the Mysterious Lady Palace, and her own Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady Physique, so her fast cultivation growth wasn’t surprising.
“It’s a pleasure to welcome friends from afar. You have come from afar, let us host a banquet in your honor. The Palace Master is currently copying calligraphy, and in three days, will meet you all in Wencheng Hall.”
Saint Zeng gestured invitingly.
Saint Zeng and Saint Zou, both Great Powers, hosted personally, welcoming the guests, the East Sea Academy filled with people, all prominent figures, gathering together.
The Mysterious Lady Palace’s Yuexi, Mount Taihua’s Lu Changsheng, are both immensely famous prodigies in the Immortal Realm. Even if they don’t become Great Emperors of the Human Clan in the future, they are at the level of Su Wudi and Qiongxiao Sword Maiden, with potential surpassing that of the four Upper Doctors of the East Sea Academy.
A group of young Confucian Scholars from the East Sea Academy were not qualified to attend and were watching from outside.
“Is that fairy the prodigy Yuexi from the Mysterious Lady Palace? Beautiful, extremely beautiful. If I could win her heart, I would have no regrets in this life.”
“I think you’re dreaming. Fairy Yuexi is like the bright moon in the sky, far beyond the reach of us mortals.”
“Lord Lu with his immortal grace and exceptional looks, if he could become a Dao companion, that would be wonderful.”
“The disciples under Lord Lu are also all dragons among men. If anyone could attract their attention, it would be a rare opportunity not to be missed.”
This group of young Confucian Scholars chatted away, the atmosphere lively.
“Where are the other two Saints?”
Yuexi noticed that among the four Upper Doctors, only Saint Zeng and Saint Zou were present, and the whereabouts of the other two Saints were unknown.
Saint Zeng replied, “Saint Zheng and Saint Duanmu have respectively gone to Ancient Xu Country and Guzhu Kingdom to save the people and resist the Blood Sea Palace.”
“Blood Sea Palace is training demonic cultivation skills at any cost, their strength growing rapidly, now a formidable force. It may require collaboration from various sects to suppress them.”
“Indeed…”
Saint Zeng stroked his beard, and many Great Confucians in the hall were worried.
The young Confucian Scholars outside, sheltered by the East Sea Academy’s barrier, might not understand the great calamity the Three Realms were facing, where even Saints could easily fall.
Yuexi lightly took a sip of fine wine: “Is there anything unusual beneath the East Sea Academy?”
Saint Zeng, Saint Zou, and the Great Confucians exchanged a glance, all shaking their heads.
Lu Changsheng listened to their conversation and realized that the rumors he read in ancient texts might be true.
The mission of this Confucian Sect at the East Sea Academy is to guard the tomb buried beneath the endless sea.
The visit of Yuexi and a team of Mysterious Lady Palace disciples to the East Sea Academy must also have something to do with this tomb.
Initially, Lu Changsheng only intended to visit the East Sea Academy, unexpectedly getting involved in an ancient legend.
Lu Changsheng spoke up to verify his thought: “Did the Mysterious Lady Palace send you to assist the East Sea Academy in guarding the underwater tomb?”
Yuexi and the Great Confucians of East Sea Academy were slightly surprised: “You know about this?”
“It seems the rumors are true…”
Lu Changsheng smiled wryly; this matter involves East Sea Academy and Mysterious Lady Palace, likely not simple.
Getting involved, he did not know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate.
In the back mountain of the East Sea Academy, Qingyu Garden, a young girl in white sat upright, holding a Spirit Brush, her black hair draped casually over her shoulders, her gaze calm as water, expressionless, with thin, pale red lips and flawless white skin.
A female disciple of the Confucian Sect stepped in softly: “Palace Master, people from the Mysterious Lady Palace have arrived.”
The girl in white did not look up, focused on copying calligraphy: “Who is leading them?”
“Qiongxiao Sword Maiden’s disciple, Immortal Yuexi.”
“Her cultivation is still insufficient.”
“Qiongxiao Sword Maiden is delayed, will arrive later.”
“Hmm.”
“Master Zou also invited Lord Lu of the Taihua Holy Land and his disciples.”
“Why have people from Taihua Holy Land come? Is it the Lu Changsheng who defeated Emperor Ku?”
“Exactly.”
“This person who can surpass the Supreme Emperor Body deserves to be seen. Bring them to see me in Wencheng Hall in three days.”
