2306 Offend
Shu Jing’s expression softened. Jin Yunlai’s logic does make sense.
In the past 10,000 years, First Deity has always controlled the Fantasy Divine Sea. It is heavily guarded and dangerous.
Yu Qian has almost inherited all of the First Deity’s power, except for this. Hence, even until now, even Yu Qian can’t privately enter the Fantasy Divine Sea without the First Deity’s permission.
Chu Liuyue’s behavior is indeed courting death for herself.
Shu Jing thought of another matter and knitted her brows slightly. “What did Nan Jinshu do, such that First Deity was willing to meet him? Besides, this happened not long ago. Why does everyone know about it?”
Jin Yunlai shook his head and continued walking forward. “I don’t know, so I plan to ask First Deity and make this clear.”
Shu Jing hurriedly said, “I’ll come too!”
…
When the two of them reached the area, two people came out from the door.
They were two young men who looked like they were 25 or 26 years old—one was handsome, and the other was good-looking. They both had extraordinary auras.
Upon seeing this, Jin Yunlai and Shu Jing looked shocked. “Jiu Long, Xi Yan, you—”
These two people were the Ninth Deity and Tenth Deity respectively.
In their impression, the two of them were cultivating in seclusion. Why did they suddenly come here, and… it seemed like they had just seen First Deity!?
Jiu Long heard them and looked over. Then, they greeted each other. “Greetings, Seventh Deity, Eighth Deity.”
Jin Yunlai’s gaze swept across the two of them. “You met First Deity?”
The two of them nodded. “First Deity has commands for us and told us to immediately go to the God Residence Realm’s God-Killing Tumulus. We were just about to head there.”
“First Deity personally gave a command?” Shu Jing was in disbelief.
One had to know that First Deity hadn’t cared about Fantasy Divine Palace’s matters in many years. This time… it was too sudden.
However, Jin Yunlai suddenly realized something. Could this also be because of Nan Jinshu?
As expected, Xi Yan hurriedly explained, “Rumors have that the third music score could possibly be there, so First Deity sent the two of us to search for it.”
Jin Yunlai and Shu Jing were shocked. Then, they finally understood. It’s no wonder First Deity suddenly had such a big movement. It was because of this…
Although there were many deities in Fantasy Divine Hall, it was very hard to find those with such time and energy. These two people were indeed the most suitable choice.
Jiu Long said, “If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first.”
After all, this was a task First Deity personally gave. They did not dare to delay it at all.
Jin Yunlai nodded.
Jiu Long and Xi Yan quickly left.
Shu Jing looked at the duo’s backviews and knitted their brows. After a moment, she walked toward that door.
But just as she walked forward, she was stopped by a barrier.
A low and nonchalant voice came from inside. “Just do what you should do.”
Shu Jing and Jin Yunlai were stunned. Is he… telling us to not interfere?
Shu Jing did not let it go. “First Deity, this matter is serious. Wouldn’t it be insufficient to just send the two of them over?”
After a moment, that voice sounded again. “Shu Jing, if you don’t want to watch over the medicinal mountain, you can follow them.”
Shu Jing’s face instantly turned pale, and she took a few steps back. “I’ve offended you. First Deity, please forgive me.”
Jin Yunlai fell silent as well.
First Deity’s intention was already very obvious, and there was no need to continue asking.
He cupped his fists and left. “Then, I won’t disturb you further.”
After that, he glanced at Shu Jing.
Shu Jing took a few steps out and suddenly recalled something. She paused in her tracks and hesitantly asked, “First Deity, Sixth Deity’s Holy Body is damaged. If we want to rebuild it, we would have to use the golden heavenly lightning in the lightning pool. However, the lightning pool is sealed now. You think…”
Originally, everything was proceeding smoothly, and they just had to wait for an opportune moment. Who knew that the lightning pool would suddenly explode and disrupt their plans?
If he could not quickly reform his Holy Body, wouldn’t the pills she produced with much difficulty be wasted?
Now, she didn’ know when the lightning pool would be opened. Who knew when she would have to wait until? Hence, she could only try to ask First Deity for help.
The yard fell silent, and a gust of coldness gradually surged in.
Shu Jing’s heart skipped a beat, and she suddenly felt uneasy.
Following that, she heard someone coldly say inside, “Then, let him suffer!”
…
Shu Jing’s overwhelmed heart could not be appeased until she walked quite a distance away.
She walked on distractedly, and there was no focus in her eyes. It was only until Jin Yunlai planned to walk in another direction that she recovered her senses and took a few quick steps.
She walked to Jin Yunlai. “When did Sixth Deity offend First Deity?”
Jin Yunlai frowned. “How would I know?”
Shu Jing’s lips were still pale, and she could not help but mutter, “That’s not right… First Deity has been in seclusion for so many years, and Sixth Deity just came out not long ago. How could he offend First Deity? Besides, First Deity is cold and nonchalant, and he rarely gets angry, but just now—”
When she mentioned Sixth Deity, First Deity’s voice contained rare anger.
Jin Yunlai could tell as well. This was different from the previous time he planned to barge in, causing First Deity to be upset.
Sixth Deity seemed to have committed a huge mistake, to the point where First Deity wasn’t willing to help him reform his Holy Body. This was clearly something as easy as ABC for him.
Shu Jing suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed slightly. Oh right, when Sixth Deity previously mentioned First Deity, he did seem rather terrified. At that point, I just thought he feared and respected him, so I did not think too much of it. But thinking of it now…
Jin Yunlai looked at her and said, “If you really want to know, can’t you just directly ask Sixth Deity?”
…
During this time, Chu Liuyue and Mu Hongyu exited the Heaven Gate and arrived at the silver bridge.
As they walked, Chu Liuyue surveyed her surroundings.
Very quickly, she saw a familiar figure. “Nan Jinshu.”
Mu Hongyu hurriedly followed her line of sight. “Where?”
There was a person traveling through the air above the dark-blue sea—it was Nan Jinshu.
He traveled quite a distance toward the depths of the Fantasy Divine Sea before he stopped. Then, he directly rushed into the Fantasy Divine Sea!
