Chapter 1755: Chapter 1445: Is the One Who Wants to Destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace the Heavenly Splendor Hall?
Hearing Guihai Immortal Monarch’s words, Chiyan Immortal King was stunned.
After coming back to his senses, Chiyan Immortal King asked, “What does the Special Envoy mean by this?”
Guihai Immortal Monarch calmly said, “The one truly wanting to destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace is neither the Blood Eagle Hall nor the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty, but the Heavenly Splendor Hall.”
Chiyan Immortal King’s mind froze completely; the one wanting to destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace is the Heavenly Splendor Hall???
Seeing that Chiyan Immortal King was overwhelmed by his revelation, Guihai Immortal Monarch sneered and said, “Your Chiyan Sect has quite the nerve to dare to oppose the Heavenly Splendor Hall.”
After regaining his composure, Chiyan Immortal King questioned, “Is the Special Envoy trying to deceive me? Why would the Heavenly Splendor Hall ignore evil forces like the Blood Eagle Hall and aim to destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace?”
Seeing that Chiyan Immortal King still didn’t believe him, Guihai Immortal Monarch snorted, “The Mysterious Moon Palace ignored the Immortal Order of the Heavenly Splendor Hall and killed our envoy. Do you think they shouldn’t be destroyed?”
This…
Chiyan Immortal King was stunned again; did the Mysterious Moon Palace kill the envoy of the Heavenly Splendor Hall?
When did this happen?
Does the Mysterious Moon Palace have such audacity?
Guihai Immortal Monarch said, “What, are you going to start doubting my identity next?”
Saying this, Guihai Immortal Monarch directly took out an Identity Token and tossed it in front of Chiyan Immortal King, where it floated, emitting vibrant seven-colored Immortal Aura.
Sensing the aura emitted by the Identity Token, Chiyan Immortal King paused; he had seen the Identity Token of a Heavenly Splendor Hall disciple, and this was indeed one that only a disciple of Heavenly Splendor Hall would possess.
This proved that the person in front of him was indeed a disciple of the Heavenly Splendor Hall. Yet he still found it hard to believe; why would the Mysterious Moon Palace kill an envoy from the Heavenly Splendor Hall?
The Heavenly Splendor Hall was the largest force in the Southern Domain. No faction dared to offend them or go against their orders. Where did the Mysterious Moon Palace get the courage to oppose them?
Seeing Chiyan Immortal King in silent contemplation, Guihai Immortal Monarch spoke again, “Now the Heavenly Splendor Hall is preparing for war. Soon, it will join other top forces in an assault on the Demon Emperor, so it currently has no time to deal with the Mysterious Moon Palace.”
“Once the war against the Demon Emperor is over, the Heavenly Splendor Hall will certainly eliminate those forces in the Southern Domain that defy its Immortal Order. If Chiyan Immortal King insists on allying with the Mysterious Moon Palace, it’s clear what fate awaits the Chiyan Sect.”
Chiyan Immortal King still remained silent. Internally, he was wavering; if it was true, as the man said, that the Mysterious Moon Palace killed the Heavenly Splendor Hall’s envoy, then even without the Blood Eagle Hall and Tianxia Immortal Dynasty’s attack, the Heavenly Splendor Hall would eventually destroy the Mysterious Moon Palace themselves.
If the Chiyan Sect continued its alliance with the Mysterious Moon Palace, it would one day be implicated. Thus, the Chiyan Sect must sever ties with the Mysterious Moon Palace.
However, he was still unable to determine the truth of this information. After all, the messenger was only an Immortal Monarch. Although this Immortal Monarch had the Identity Token of the Heavenly Splendor Hall, it didn’t guarantee everything he said was true.
It could be possible that the Blood Eagle Hall and Tianxia Immortal Dynasty were trying to sow discord by sending a Heavenly Splendor Hall disciple disguised as an envoy to deliver false information.
But regardless of whether the person’s words were true or false, they must be verified.
If false, then all the better, and they need not heed the person’s words. But if true, then the Chiyan Sect must swiftly sever ties with the Mysterious Moon Palace.
Thinking of this, Chiyan Immortal King said to Guihai Immortal Monarch, “Special Envoy, could you allow me some time to consider?”
Guihai Immortal Monarch, knowing Chiyan Immortal King’s thoughts, replied, “Very well, I will give you some time, but time waits for no one. Before long, several top forces will march against the Demon Emperor. If you haven’t decided before the Demon Emperor is defeated, then Chiyan Sect and Mysterious Moon Palace may share the same fate.”
Chiyan Immortal King said, “Rest assured, Special Envoy, I will give you an answer soon.”
Guihai Immortal Monarch said, “Very well, I shall stay with the Chiyan Sect for the time being and await your answer.”
Chiyan Immortal King smiled and said, “Then I apologize for the inconvenience, Special Envoy.”
“I will arrange the best residence for you. Please follow me.”
Saying this, Chiyan Immortal King led Guihai Immortal Monarch out of the hall.
In the days that followed, Chiyan Immortal King provided Guihai Immortal Monarch with the best hospitality while also sending people to investigate the matter of the Mysterious Moon Palace killing the Heavenly Splendor Hall’s envoy.
Though few knew of this matter, Yun Yudie had not issued any bans on the disciples of the Mysterious Moon Palace from discussing it, so quite a few details of the event had spread.
Soon enough, Chiyan Immortal King’s investigation yielded results.
A month later.
Chiyan Sect, Meeting Hall.
After reading the intelligence within the Jade Scroll in his hand, Chiyan Immortal King’s face turned ashen. He hadn’t expected it to be true; the Mysterious Moon Palace did indeed kill the envoy of the Heavenly Splendor Hall.
The disciples of the Mysterious Moon Palace didn’t think they had done anything wrong, so the spies of the Chiyan Sect only needed to make a few inquiries to learn how the envoy sent to inspect the Mysterious Moon Palace had died.
Chiyan Immortal King felt extremely shocked; Yun Yudie’s audacity was astonishing. The Heavenly Splendor Hall was the largest force in the Southern Domain with several Immortal Venerates.
The Mysterious Moon Palace currently only had two Immortal Kings; how could they dare to act against the envoy of the Heavenly Splendor Hall?
This was disastrous. Once the Heavenly Splendor Hall finished their war with the Demon Emperor, they would certainly besiege the Mysterious Moon Palace. If the Chiyan Sect continued maintaining their alliance, they would inevitably be affected; they must quickly sever ties with the Mysterious Moon Palace.
Thinking this, Chiyan Immortal King immediately went to Guihai Immortal Monarch’s residence.
At this time, Guihai Immortal Monarch sat in the courtyard, leisurely sipping tea. He wasn’t worried at all because he believed Chiyan Immortal King had set people to investigate and would soon discover the matter of the Mysterious Moon Palace killing the envoy. Once Chiyan Immortal King found out, he would naturally know what to do.
Just then, Chiyan Immortal King appeared at the courtyard’s entrance. Sensing his presence, Guihai Immortal Monarch set down his tea cup and calmly said, “It seems Chiyan Immortal King already knows what to do.”
Chiyan Immortal King immediately entered the courtyard and said, “Thanks to the Special Envoy’s warning, I didn’t expect us, the Chiyan Sect, to be allied with such a reckless Immortal Sect as the Mysterious Moon Palace. Had it not been for the reminder, the Chiyan Sect might have soon ceased to exist.”
Guihai Immortal Monarch calmly said, “All is not lost; Chiyan Immortal King has awoken in time.”
Chiyan Immortal King agreed, “The Special Envoy speaks the truth.”
Guihai Immortal Monarch continued, “However, your Chiyan Sect did upset the Heavenly Splendor Hall’s plans and was indeed allied with the Mysterious Moon Palace. If the Immortal Venerates of the Heavenly Splendor Hall wish to hold you accountable, Chiyan Sect might still be exterminated.”
