Chapter 357: Chapter 154: Luo Fuyao’s Fate, Li Treading Immortal Pays Respects to the Sect, Determined to Learn the World’s First Mysterious Sect’s Art! (Part 2)
So, she originally planned to join a sect in search of the true law.
Tonight, King Yin was assassinated, causing the entire Divine Capital’s experts to become enraged, ruthlessly hunting down the involved ’Wuwei Sect’ rebels. Originally, this matter was unrelated to Luo Fuyao, but...
The ’Golden Page’ that greatly changed her fate however... began to slowly document the deeds and name of another person!
[He is someone who, in the future, can deduce fate, unveil the true essence of techniques, and become the ’Master of All Generations’.]
[But... burdened with the ’Twenty-Eight Major Limits’, it is destined that he at sixteen, and at twenty-eight years old, will face two catastrophes akin to an ’insurmountable barrier’, difficult to overcome, a sign of Heaven’s envy!]
[Golden scales are not ordinary pool creatures; when encountering wind and clouds, they transform into dragons.]
[Within his destiny lies the calamity of death, while your fate requires the assistance of ’King’s Right-Hand Man’ to achieve a great celestial influence.]
[Tonight at Midnight, a hundred miles outside Divine Capital, at the Wind and Snow Temple in Langdang Mountain.]
[The illegitimate son of Tongye Mansion, ’Li Shunfan’, may face the peril of death; you can go and connect with him, to save him.]
When the Golden Book inscribed this line of writing.
Recalling the deeds of the previous King Yin’s subordinate, Duke Tongye Li Shen Yao, who led his two sons to establish independence in Tongye State, causing King Yin to decree the extermination of the entire Li Clan in Divine Capital.
Luo Fuyao raced to the Wind and Snow Temple without stopping.
But unexpectedly,
Following the guidance of the Celestial Book Golden Page, she saw the person, but he was intercepted by others, a step too late, and those people were the Wuwei Sect experts who assassinated ’King Yin’ tonight!
However,
In the critical moment, she still managed to use her skills to break the talisman restrictions set up by a Primordial Pill expert, hearing some information about Li Shunfan... or should say ’Li Treading Immortal’.
Making Luo Fuyao, initially completely unaware of the young man recorded in the Golden Page, gradually recognize him.
He saw her, and she also saw him.
This was a seemingly weak, fair and clean scholarly young man, with an aura of literary temperament.
But...
Hidden within his eyes, was something akin to her own, like the hottest flame, fiercely burning, unrestrained.
...
A sleepless night of wind and snow.
Princess Fuyao, clad in a cloud-golden patterned palace gown, returned to the Yin Palace, summoned by the current King Yin.
Passing through intricate corridors, behind a battle-scarred, somewhat dilapidated door, half of the beam dragon patterned column was broken, and in the center of the hall, a dragon throne stood upright.
Ignoring the Divine Blood guards clad in dark yellow armor, Luo Fuyao walked alone to the side of King Yin, who was leaning with a robe of crimson blood, slightly bowing her head, speaking respectfully:
"Father, you called for me?"
A faint aroma of Dragon Incense permeated the air, King Yin gently replied ’Hmm’:
"You brought someone today, and you met the culprits of the Wuwei Sect, didn’t you?"
Luo Fuyao’s expression remained unchanged, showing a slight hint of regret:
"Yes, but unfortunately, my skills were lacking, even though I wanted to contribute, I couldn’t be of much help, barely finding traces, yet they escaped from me."
King Yin waved his hand:
"No matter."
His lips curled into a cold smile:
"Those sorts... they won’t be able to jump around much longer."
"I always knew these demonic cultivators were lawless, but not truly realizing their audacity until today."
"Wuwei Sect Leader, Feng Zizai."
"Heh."
"Wants to innovate a ’True Man Technique’ for the humans?"
"Does he truly think of himself as a sage?"
"Ancient sages, everyone could die for them, but who knows whether the brothers he gathered can also die for the Dao and not betray him?"
Luo Fuyao kept her head down, silent, not responding, after a long pause, King Yin’s expression eased somewhat:
"You’ve reached the threshold of Primordial Pill years ago, though not my blood by birth, among peers in Yin Palace, besides the first and second, you are also distinguished."
"Are you certain you don’t want to connect closely with the Royal Family, tying the bonds?"
"Neither I nor your mother have this taboo."
Luo Fuyao, radiating like the moon, stiffened momentarily, shaking her head in silence.
King Yin gazed at her for a long time.
Then sighed:
"Never mind."
"You’re my adopted daughter, whatever you do is up to you."
"Thus... if you don’t inherit the Half-Demon Divine Blood, or Demon Bloodline, searching among the ’Sixteen Strong Human Clans’ is the only way to find Primordial Pill inheritance."
"But those Jianghu sects always aim high, although I can rely on warlords to attack mountains and temples, without becoming a True Master, I can’t easily subdue them all."
"Which sect do you intend to join to seek ’Primordial Pill Technique’?"
"Among the Sixteen Strong Clans, in the slightly weaker two or three among them, the sect’s true teachings, out of respect for Great Yin, they won’t dare withhold from you."
"Choose one?"
Luo Fuyao did not reply, instead saying:
"If choosing, then choose the best."
"Fuyao..."
"Wants to try the ’Life and Death Mountain and River Sect’."
King Yin’s eyes sharpened:
"’Mountain and River Immortal’ Zuo Shanhe, hm..."
"Their inheritance, though Great Yin wishes to demand it, it’s not so easy, perhaps you’ll have to undergo their ’Mountain Gate Trial’, which might delay you for three years; although you have already achieved Great Innate, delaying three years for Primordial Pill Technique is unnecessary."
Yet, when Luo Fuyao recalled Jixia’s shadow, her eyes sparkled with determination, saying:
"I want to try, not under the guise of ’Great Yin Princess’."
King Yin fixed his gaze on Luo Fuyao:
"You are very much like me."
A single sentence made Luo Fuyao lower her head even more.
But King Yin laughed:
"Being like me is a good thing."
"Since that’s the case..."
"Then go."
Upon hearing these words, Luo Fuyao’s eyelashes trembled slightly, perhaps with some astonishment, not expecting... King Yin would actually let this orphan of ’Profound King Bloodline’ leave the palace.
