Chapter 90: Divine Luo Palace

  Take a break! It's been updated for a month, and it has been steadily maintaining the pace of two updates per day! I've also made up for what I owed, and from time to time, there will be an explosion. Today and tomorrow, there will only be one update each, giving myself a break, and starting on the 1st, I'll work hard to explode again!

  Just be considerate of me, after all I'm not a full-time writer, and I have things to do on my own. Long live understanding.

  ————

  The Shen Luo Palace is shrouded in mystery, not located within any large domain, but rather situated in a mysterious space of its own. Except for a select few, no one knows where it is located. The space it occupies is constantly moving at all times.

  If it weren't for meeting Xujou's mother, Xu Bairan wouldn't have known about the existence of Shenluo Palace.

  "I don't know, so I plan to leave the Divine Realm and search for clues about the Divine Luo Palace outside. The Divine Realm has been cut off from the outside world since ancient times, and many messages are very blocked." Xu Bairan sighed.

  What happened in the ancient era's fracture? The Longevity Tree once said that a shocking and earth-shaking great war occurred in the ancient era, and even someone as strong as him almost fell. If he hadn't met Jiang Xiaoyu and obtained the Qing Emperor's Sacred Technique, he would probably have become a statue by now.

  Unfortunately, the Longevity Tree's memory had a gap, and for the time being, there was no way to know the specific reason, which made Jiang Xiaoyu feel regretful.

  Xu Bairan looked at Jiang Xiaoyu, who was a saint and now even more so outside the domain. As for the matters of Shen Luo Palace, he didn't know if the other party understood some things.

  Jiang Xiaoyu shook his head and said: "I also heard the name of Shenluo Palace today, what I did outside the domain has nothing to do with Shenluo Palace."

  Alas! I've been deceived. Xue Bai Ruo has placed her hopes on me, this is unscientific! Not to mention the Shen Luo Palace, I haven't even been outside the domain!

  Looking at Xu Rou's bewildered expression, Jiang Xiao Yu let out a soft sigh and said: "Don't be sad, your mother is not dead yet, we still have hope to find her. I promise you, I will definitely find the location of Shen Luo Palace and take you to look for your mother!"

  "Hmm!" Xu Rou looked at Jiang Xiao Yu and nodded.

  No one had expected things to develop to this point, and Xu Bairan's life was too bitter. Thinking of what he had said to the other person before, Jiang Xiaoyu couldn't help but feel embarrassed. Fortunately, his face wasn't bad, and there was no abnormality, only a slight sense of guilt in his heart.

  It was just that after a while, she still couldn't accept Xu Bairan. Her heart was too messy. Her mother wasn't dead, and her father wasn't as ruthless as he seemed on the surface. Everything had come too suddenly, and she didn't know how to face it.

  Having seen the thoughts in Xu Rou's heart, Jiang Xiao Yu said to Xu Bai Ran: "I'll take Xu Rou away for now. If there's any news from Shen Luo Palace, I'll naturally notify you. However, I hope you won't make any rash moves for the time being. Otherwise, not only will we fail to rescue her mother, but it may also put her mother in danger!"

  Xu Bairan nodded, he also saw Xu Rou's abnormality and didn't expect the child to accept it immediately. Moreover, Jiang Xiaoyu's last words made a lot of sense, the other party was a saint, if they had his help, Xu Rou's mother might really be saved.

  Xue Rou left the study with him and returned to the courtyard, where Jiang Xiao Yu glanced at everyone.

  He walked up to Zhong Yujian and smiled warmly: "This time it's indeed troubling you."

  It's indeed troublesome, Young Master Hou was originally in seclusion, but suddenly received a letter from his senior and rushed over without saying a word. However, Shi Zhongyu himself didn't feel any trouble at all.

  "It's also our wish to be able to do things for our seniors." Shi Zhongyu said humbly. Then he smiled and asked, "Senior, why haven't you seen Qin Feng?"

  Jiang Xiaoyu nodded and said: "Qin Feng is with his sister and brother, I came this time to find Xu Rou, so I didn't let them follow."

  "Alright..." A hint of disappointment appeared on Shi Zhongyu's face.

  Jiang Xiaoyu's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself that this young master shouldn't actually be... one of those, right? If so, he felt it necessary to mourn the War King for two seconds.

  "Now that the matter has been settled, I will return to the Imperial City and focus on my cultivation. Recently, I have gained some insights and plan to break through to the Ten Clouds Realm as soon as possible!" Shi Zhongyu said respectfully.

  It's indeed pointless to stay here anymore. Observing Xu Rou's expression, Shi Zhong Yu also knew that he shouldn't stay and disturb them.

  Zhōng Yù took his people and Tiān Zhǔ and left Yún Chéng, anyway the distance wasn't very far, and with Tiān Zhǔ by their side, they didn't have to worry about safety.

  Jiang Batian also left the yard and went to the study. As for Xu Bairan's affairs, he was truly aware of them, and now he should be able to understand Xu Bairan's feelings.

  Jiang Xiaoyu took Xu Rou and Ai Wenshu back to the inn.

  Xu Rou's complexion has never been very good-looking, she likes to be in a daze, sometimes when calling her, she would respond with one sentence and then another.

  Jiang Xiaoyu knew that the other party needed a little time to clear their mind, so she didn't disturb Xu Rou either. Instead, she asked Ai Wenshuo: "Disciple, do you know about the existence of Shenluo Palace?"

  "Shenluo Palace?" A hint of surprise flickered across Ai Wenshu's face. "Master, how did you know about Shenluo Palace? This is impossible!"

  After hearing the other person's tone, it seemed like they knew, Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and then she told them about Xu Rou's situation.

  After listening to Jiang Xiaoyu's account, Ai Wenshu was shocked and said in disbelief: "It's too unbelievable, how is this possible! The rules of the Shen Luo Palace are very strict. Once a Shen Luo woman has private contact with an outsider, both the Shen Luo woman and the outsider will be killed. How could Xu Bairan possibly survive, and Shifu...

  Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly understood what it meant and couldn't help but mutter to herself, "Could Xu Bairan's words be false?"

  Ai Wenshu seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly spoke up: "Even in the God Luo Palace, the God Luo girls have a transcendent status. Each generation has eight God Luo girls, each one is a stunning beauty, moving heaven and earth! Moreover, each one is a genius in cultivation! Master's mother may be the most special among the eight God Luo girls, otherwise, why would the God Luo Palace be so forgiving of her?"

  It's possible! Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly realized, but he didn't expect that the Sheng Luo girl was only eight years old. He thought the Sheng Luo girl was a female disciple of the Sheng Luo Palace.

  "What's going on, apprentice? How did you know all this?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked curiously.

  Aiyin Xue smiled awkwardly and explained, "I was once favored by an elder of the Shen Luo Palace, who is a strong expert at the level of cutting off the Tao! He invited me to enter the Shen Luo Palace as the new generation of Shen Luo girls, but there were too many rules, so I didn't agree. I prefer to be freer!"

  Twenty-six-year-old Shen Qiao, who wouldn't want to recruit him? At this rate of cultivation, it's probably hard to find a few in history. Moreover, Ai Wenshuo's golden period has not passed yet, and there is still more space for development!

  Let me think about my current apprentices. My eldest apprentice, Qin Feng, has a good innate talent, but he's very down-to-earth. My second apprentice, Ou Jiangzi, is average in terms of cultivation, but his achievements in the field of alchemy are extremely high. As for my third apprentice, Ai Wenshuo, and my fourth apprentice, Fang Hen, they both possess absolute cultivation talents!

  It's just that one has already grown up, and the other is still developing. The current Fang Heng has entered the Cloud Ascension Realm and is still growing at a rapid pace!

  ......

  Xuán Míng Fǔ

  An old man wearing a yellow robe, with an iron face, looked at the stone tablet in front of him, his whole body trembling. He glanced at the three elders and Mo Xue, and said coldly: "Who is it?"

  "Elder, let's just drop the matter! You can only blame yourself for being too lenient with Jing De in the past, which led to offending someone you shouldn't have!" The Second Elder spoke up.

  This old man is Jing De's father, the Grand Elder of Xuan Ming Prefecture! He just returned from Tian Tang Mountain and originally brought some small gifts for his son. However, he didn't expect to encounter a situation where an elderly person would be sending off a younger one, which made him extremely furious!

  The master of the mansion also walked over slowly at this time, and the three elders had already informed him of the general situation. This matter was indeed a mistake on their part in the first place for the Xuanming Mansion.

  But would the Great Elder let it go? The Great Elder asked expressionlessly, "I don't care who's right or wrong, I just want to know who did it!"

  The last sentence was shouted out, he just had such a son! Is it really dead? He simply couldn't believe it. How could he die suddenly?

  "He is a divine bridge monk..." The two elders shook their heads in great frustration.

  "Shenqiao cultivator? Elder Zhang's face was filled with doubt. 'My son is fine, how could he possibly provoke a Shenqiao cultivator? Duan Sheyi, if you don't explain the whole story clearly, I won't let this matter rest today!'"

  The two elders sighed, and indeed the other's temper had flared up again. If he didn't explain clearly, the other might really fight with him. The great elder was fine in every way, but once his son's affairs were involved, he became unsettled.

  Then he told everything that had happened, without any embellishment, but said it all out in its entirety.

  "My son!" The old man cried out in anguish after hearing this.

  Kneeling on the stone tablet, he wailed, "How can a divine bridge monk like myself avenge you? Father is useless!"

  "Let's all go down and let him calm down for a while." The master of the house sighed helplessly.

  The layout of Tiandang Mountain has been completed, and there are still two months to go before the grand meeting. What was originally a joyful event has now turned into such an unexpected situation.

  However, this matter was originally their fault in the Xuanming Prefecture. As the master of the prefecture, he could only help reason and not help his relatives. Sitting in this position, every move is being watched by others, with a lot of helplessness.

  After everyone left, the old man looked at his son's grave and muttered to himself, "Dad will definitely avenge you, definitely will..."

  ......

  ......

  Three days later, Xu Rou's condition had improved, at least on the surface, and there was no difference from usual.

  "What are you going to do next?" Xǔ Róu asked.

  "I'm going to the academy, how about you?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked closely.

  Xu Rou thought for a moment and then said: "In the past few days, I've already come to terms with it. I'm going back to the Xu Manor to accompany my father."

  Jiang Xiaoyu nodded, this was also good, otherwise she really didn't know how to arrange Xu Rou, now that she was going to venture into the Academy, where there were powerful outsiders hiding inside, who knew if there were any divine bridge cultivators.

  "As for your mother's matter, I will pay extra attention. Once there is news, I'll take you to find her!" Jiang Xiaoyu promised.

  Xu Rou smiled and said with a playful tone: "Are you sure? Don't put too much pressure on yourself."

  Although Ai Yuexue was not in the room at this moment, she also spoke with caution and did not say it so bluntly.

  Jiang Xiaoyu helplessly rubbed his nose and said: "Don't worry! I'm very confident!"

  "Let me handle this!" Xu Rou thought of knocking Jiang Xiao Yu's head.

  But was caught by Jiang Xiaoyu's hand, wanted to say something, but saw Jiang Xiaoyu looking at herself with deep affection, her face full of reluctance.

  "I'll miss you." Jiang Xiaoyu smiled slightly.

  Xu Rou couldn't help but lower her head, her face already flushed red all over. How did they end up saying such cheesy things, but this feeling was so blissful.
