True Martial World - Chapter 883: Ancient Fey Soul Remnant

The Shadow Twins had always been outstanding in the White Fox clan. As twin sisters, they had simultaneously awoken their Ancient Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline. Coupled with their pedigree and beauty, they were obviously highly sought after. Hence, under the present situation, those who could be praised by them were few and far between.

However, what Yi Yun had done had truly astonished them. The primordial universe's chaotic laws were like churning waves in the sea. The sea waves easily changed their shape, but if one wanted to attempt to use their feet to flatten the waves, that was nearly impossible.

Although Yi Yun's mimicry was relatively inchoate compared to the Shadow Twins, it was still extremely rare and valuable.

Furthermore, the more Yi Yun walked, the more plain-sailing it became for him. He was also slowly speeding up!

The White Fox clan geniuses that had previously mocked Yi Yun were momentarily at a loss for words when they saw the situation. They might have extremely strong combat ability, but they themselves knew that they could not use their feet to flatten the chaotic energies.

At that moment, Wufeng spoke, "Do not look down on the geniuses of the Luo clan. Although you are the cream of the crop in the White Fox clan, and this batch of juniors in the White Fox clan far exceeds the past, the Luo clan is also filled with talent. Don't forget that the Luo clan has existed for an even longer period of time. They have amassed a great foundation.

When the surrounding White Fox clan geniuses heard this, some of them fell silent while others were unconvinced.

"Being able to flatten the chaotic energies in the void is based on one's superiority in laws. Yi Yun is a human, so it is normal for him to be better than us on this. I heard that at a Luo clan collective training, his nomological insights were outstanding. However, what will be compared next is actual combat! Actual combat is what we are best at!"

"Right! Actual combat is everything. What's the use of laws alone!?"

The moment that actual combat was mentioned, the White Fox clan disciples immediately perked up. The Luo Divine Hall trials' final results depended on actual combat, which had the greatest weighting.

Wufeng did not speak. The Fey race was indeed proficient at actual combat. Even for Wufeng himself, nomological insights was his weakness, while actual combat was his strength.

In terms of actual combat, he was absolutely confident!

Of course, compared to Princess White Fox… he was completely no match for her.

Not only was Princess White Fox an instance of atavism, but she was also equally outstanding in laws, which the Fey race viewed as their weakness. She did not have any weaknesses!

If not for Princess White Fox being well-matched with Luo Huo'er, the White Fox prince would not have been so confident.

Upon thinking about this, Wufeng glanced at Princess White Fox, who wasn't too far away from him.

At that moment, Princess White Fox was looking at Yi Yun with a wistful look. Her eyes were concentrated on Yi Yun's toes. Her eyes were very pure, like a bright surface of a lake. Every ripple formed by Yi Yun's feet was clearly reflected in her pupils.

"Nongyin, if this was the first time that you came to the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, will you be able to do what he did?"

Nongying was the elder sister of the Shadow Twins, while the younger sister's name was Nongyue.

Nongying frankly shook her head and said, "No."

Just as Nongying said this, the red-dressed woman beside her spoke. The red-dressed woman was leading the White Fox clan on this expedition — Fairy Red Fox.

"Xue'er, that sort of footwork was created by Nongying and Nongyue with trial and error. The difficulty of pioneering is much higher than imitating. Yi Yun is only imitating." Fairy Red Fox gave Yi Yun a deep glance and said, "Of course, he is much stronger than I originally imagined."

"That's right. He's only imitating us." Nongyue, the younger sister, said with a slight frown. Yi Yun's imitation of their actions made Nongyue rather displeased. "If he has the ability, he should pioneer a footwork that belongs to himself. If so, I'll have a high opinion of him. If not, he's just a person who imitates!"

"Ordinary people might not be able to do so even if they want to imitate." Princess White Fox shook her head.

With the Luo clan and White Fox clan disciples gathered, the Luo Divine Hall trials also began.

And at that moment, the two spirit cruisers of the White Fox and Luo clan lifted off simultaneously. It flew away from the land mass where the Luo Divine Hall was. With that, the two spirit cruisers tunneled through the void, and before long, they used Void Transference to vanish completely.

"His Supremacy has left."

"He will come to pick us up in eighteen year’s time."

Seeing the two spirit cruisers disappear, the elites present had mixed emotions. The White Fox clan most likely had another Supremacy powering the spirit cruiser. If not, they would not have been able to break through the spatial barrier of the Primordial Empyrean Heaven.

And from beginning to the end, they had not seen the White Fox clan's Supremacy disembark from the spirit cruiser. Other than Princess White Fox and a few others, the rest did not know who the Supremacy that powered the spirit cruiser was.

A few of the Luo clan geniuses had managed to catch a glimpse of Supremacy Gulan only because of Empress Xuan. After all, there was a battle for the throne, so Empress Xuan had personally sent off the geniuses into the spirit cruiser. Supremacy Gulan had given the empress face and he had shown his face for a fleeting moment.

Following that, they did not even get to see Supremacy Gulan.

Ultimately, the difference between them was too great. Be it the White Fox clan geniuses or the Luo clan geniuses, they were unqualified to have a Supremacy pay attention to them. Supremacy Gulan had lived for tens of thousands of years, and he had to send a batch of disciples to the Primordial Empyrean Heaven every sixty years. He had seen many so-called 'geniuses', so many that he was already numb to them.

But in fact, the number of geniuses who would truly mature were rare. A general calculation was that even the person who came first in the Luo Divine Hall trials had a one in ten thousand chance of becoming a Supremacy!

Hence, most major clans would cast a wide net when nurturing their young geniuses. Through tens of thousands of times of hard work being used to nurture millions of good saplings, having one of them mature was sufficient.

Many of the elites present understood this, but understanding was one thing, if they truly thought of it, their pride would still receive a setback.

For them to mature from a young age made them a remarkable existence. But in the backdrop of the entire clan, they were just one in several million. How could they feel reconciled with the fact of being belittled by others?

Hard work!

They had to produce good results!

Everyone was led by the Luo Divine Hall Elders as they flew towards the Luo Divine Hall.

Upon landing, they saw the main palace and the surrounding towers, which immediately made these disciples feel tiny.

It was too magnificent, as though they were mountains that sprouted out of the ground.

The stone slates that lined the ground were also different from the Luo clan royal capital's. The material was unknown, but for them to last so long under the chaotic laws, they had to be extremely robust.

Looking up at the Luo Divine Hall made it even more spectacular. It had levels after levels that linked it to the sky.

"Go in." Elder Shi coldly said.

The first level of the Luo Divine Hall was extremely wide. It could accommodate more than ten thousand people. Despite the large group of disciples entering, it still appeared extremely spacious.

The vast grounds spun like gorgeous stars. Looking up, it was complete darkness. Everyone seemed to be standing alone in the universe, in the void of nothingness.

And at different positions around these stars were dozens of gigantic rocks.

These gigantic rocks emanated splendid chaotic auras, as though they were in constant flux. They did not appear real.

"This is the front hall of the Luo Divine Hall, called Astral Palace." The bearded Elder Duanmu said. Elder Shi did not appear like he had the patience to introduce such matters.

"Your first trial will be held here. Once this hall is closed, it will not be opened again. You will not be able to find an exit." The bearded Elder said with a rare smile. "None of you have ever battled an Ancient Fey before, right?"

The disciples pricked up their eyebrows as some of them honestly answered, "No."

"Then, all of you will soon have a chance." As the bearded Elder spoke, he flung an incantation onto one of the gigantic rocks.

A trail of light flashed past the stellar backdrop and following that, a growl was suddenly heard from the darkness above their heads.

This growl went straight to their hearts!

Following that, drastic changes occurred as black gases gathered together into clouds, and in a blink of an eye, a gigantic head appeared.

The head poked out of the darkness as a humongous eye glanced nonchalantly at the disciples below with a scarlet flash in its eyes.

Upon seeing this head, the disciples felt as though their hearts had been wrenched.

Dragon! A true Fey dragon!

Yi Yun was also greatly taken aback. Back in Black Wind Valley's training, he had only encountered a land contaminated by a rotting Fey dragon after its death. And now, what he was facing was a true dragon itself.

Bam!

The gigantic dragon flew down and it landed on the ground. Its massive body resembled a mountain. Its breathing made many disciples involuntarily tense up.

"The Primordial Empyrean Heaven is a world that failed to take form! Not only do the astronomical bodies or great worlds fail to take form, even an Ancient Fey born in primal times can fail in its evolution too!"

"Most of the Ancient Fey who fail to evolve would turn to ash under the immense river of time. However, there will be some who leave behind their soul essence that get wrapped in the most primordial gases of Chaos. This allows them to last till the present day!"

"Our Luo clan has collected a few Ancient Fey soul essence to establish this palace!"

Elder Duanmu's words caused Yi Yun to secretly falter.

Not only could a world fail to take form, even an Ancient Fey could fail to evolve. This allowed the production of valuable Ancient Fey soul essences.

These Ancient Fey soul essence were restored through the use of the Luo clan’s array formations. It allowed the depiction of such an incredibly realistic divine dragon.

"This Ancient Fey soul essence isn't unique to the Luo clan, right?" Yi Yun asked Gu Qing in a low voice.

Gu Qing nodded and said, "Naturally, our Luo clan only occupies a portion of the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. These Ancient Fey soul essences can be owned by other clans and Fey countries. For example, the White Fox clan's White Fox trials are very similar to our Luo Divine Hall trials."

Yi Yun nodded. Both clans were in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, so the resources they possessed were fairly identical. Hence, it was understandable that the trials they created were also similar.

Yi Yun took another look at the divine dragon. The Ancient Fey phantom image conjured by the array formation had the soul essence of an Ancient Fey that failed in its evolution imbued into it. Its powers were obviously incomparable to a true dragon, but it was definitely not easily beaten.

At that moment, Elder Shi spoke.

"The gigantic rocks in front of you are known as Fey Refining Rocks. They are similarly produced from the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. Such special divine rocks can seal the soul essence of an Ancient Fey that failed in its evolution and store them for along time. It is also one of the heritage cornerstones of our Luo clan!"

As Elder Shi spoke, Elder Duanmu dispersed the incantation on the Fey Refining Rock. Following that, the conjured dragon dissipated into countless points of light.

Elder Duanmu added on, "From now, we will begin testing your actual combat. Everyone will enter the array formation and battle with the Ancient Fey soul essence in the Fey Refining Rock. I will be outside here and watch how well you will fight!"

True Martial World - Chapter 882: Mimicking

The White Fox clan man who spoke immediately attracted the attention of many, this was because he was especially unique.

He was tall and burly, and there was a heavy weapon on his back. From the shape of it, it resembled a heavy sword.

The man's face was chiseled and his eyes were like two sharp blades. He had a faint scar in between his eyebrows, which looked like ivory. Standing there, he emanated an overwhelming foul bloodthirsty aura!

This foul aura would only appear on people who had their hands stained with a great deal of blood. Clearly, this man had experienced several life and death battles and he had traversed the realms of both life and death.

How was such a man in the White Fox clan?

Ignoring his foul bloodthirsty aura, just his appearance alone definitely made him an extremely masculine man, even in the Luo clan. He was completely different from the effeminate men in the White Fox clan.

The White Fox clan had such a person?

"I am."

Yi Yun stood at the exit of the Luo clan's spirit cruiser. He had yet to disembark from the spirit cruiser, and when he locked eyes with the sword-bearing man, Yi Yun felt that the other person's aura was extraordinary.

The sword-bearing youth was somewhat special.

The Shadow Twins, together with the sword-bearing youth, allowed the White Fox clan to showcase their strength even before the trials began. It was already quite amazing.

"My name is Wufeng!" The sword-bearing man announced his name as he looked deeply into Yi Yun's eyes.

Yi Yun was not surprised to be suddenly questioned by members of the White Fox clan. It was highly likely that most people in the White Fox clan had heard of his name…

The reason was none other than the confrontation between Luo Huo'er and Bai Yueqing.

Yi Yun slightly cocked his head and looked at Princess White Fox. In the White Fox clan, Princess White Fox enjoyed a lofty status, a status not inferior to Luo Huo'er.

"He's Yi Yun?"

Wufeng's reaction was rather plain, but for the other disciples of the White Fox clan, they did not remain calm when they heard Yi Yun's name.

"So he is the one who declared that our White Fox clan's Princess White Fox was not worthy to be his travel partner?"

"His cultivation level is at the beginning stages of the Heaven Ascension realm. His foundation is passable, but his physique is extremely weak. He would have been annihilated by me if he was in the White Fox clan for daring to speak so arrogantly."

"Do you think that he truly doesn't want to partner with our princess in her travels? He probably yearns for it deeply, but knows that it's impossible so he put on an arrogant front. However, to be able to act arrogant, one has to have the appropriate strength and status. He doesn't have any of that."

A few of the male White Fox clan youths discussed in whispers as they sized up Yi Yun without any reservations. Their perceptions blanketed Yi Yun as they checked his foundation and lifeblood strength.

They had heard of the matters over the past few days and they were incensed over the matter. They wanted to know what the arrogant man looked like.

Although the discussions were just quiet murmurs, their conversation could be heard by others. Princess White Fox frowned slightly and turned around. She glanced at those youths that were speaking, a displeased look on her face.

"The Luo Divine Hall trials have just begun. Our every action and word represent the White Fox clan. By being verbally provocative before the trials, it does nothing but make others think lowly of us." Princess White Fox sent a voice transmission.

The few White Fox youths choked up, and they did not dare to refute her.

"Your Highness, your teachings are sensible. Words mean nothing. When the trials begin, we will let that arrogant fellow know the strength of our White Fox clan."

They knew about the bet about the trials between Luo Huo'er and Bai Yueqing. Bai Yueqing had also specially informed them of the importance of the trials. Other than the bet, if they were able to crush the Luo clan in the trials, they would also gain the upper hand in the upcoming forging of the alliance between the Luo clan and the White Fox clan!

Without a doubt, those who managed to obtain good results at the trial would make a name for themselves.

"Yi Yun, aren't you coming down?" At that moment, Wufeng said to Yi Yun.

In the land mass where the Luo Divine Hall was, the laws in the void were chaotic, making it difficult for the youths to fly. Previously, the Shadow Twins had worked together to stride down the void and calming the laws. It was truly fascinating.

Wufeng understood of Yi Yun's feats. He was very curious about a person who could use the seventy-two introductory moves to refine an 'outstanding' relic.

Instantly, many people were looking at Yi Yun.

Although many of the White Fox clan disciples frowned upon Yi Yun, it was still very easy to fly in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven.

Those with strong nomological insights would be able to find the gist of it instantly, allowing them to stabilize their footing.

Those with weaker laws would stagger from beginning to end, almost never finding balance.

They wanted to see how long Yi Yun would take to find his balance.

Yi Yun looked at the void outside the spirit cruiser. Musing slightly, he took his first step out.

When his center of gravity shifted out of the spirit cruiser, Yi Yun immediately saw the chaotic laws that belonged to the Primordial Empyrean Heaven.

The space here was filled with a variety of primordial energy.

Unformed energies of Yin-Yang, the five elements, the natural powers, spatial-temporal…

These energies surged into his body as they wantonly burst through his meridians.

If his nomological insight was insufficient, the myriad of energies that mixed into his bodies would result in him plummeting if he failed to control them, just like the other Luo clan disciples from before. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Yi Yun's pace was not fast. He took one step after another. In the Purple Crystal's energy vision, the chaotic energy looked like countless disordered threads. Yi Yun stepped on the nexus points of these threads like he was walking a tightrope. It looked rather interesting to Yi Yun.

Walking stably was not difficult in fact, but with his energy vision, Yi Yun had several thoughts.

"Oh? What is that Yi Yun doing?"

People noticed that Yi Yun was walking very slowly in the void. Every step was taken very cautiously. His eyes were staring at his feet, as though he was walking along a cliff's edge, worried that he would fall at any time.

This strolling that looked like a snail's crawl could not be considered as elegant. Compared to Wufeng, Luo Mo and company, he was far inferior. They were able to find their balance in less than a second.

"Why is Yi Yun so slow at trying to adapt himself to the Primordial Empyrean Heaven's chaotic laws and maintain his balance?" A youth from the White Fox clan chuckled.

Just as he was about to deride Yi Yun, he was suddenly stunned. He noticed that there were faint ripples beneath Yi Yun's feet, just like the ripples the Shadow Twins had formed.

However, the ripples that Yi Yun created were much fainter. It looked like he had yet to proficiently grasp it, but even so, this astounded the youth that was about to speak.

"He's mimicking the Shadow Twins!" The youth from the White Fox clan said as his voice broke.

He never expected that Yi Yun was able to mimic the Shadow Twins in his first step into the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. It was quelling the chaotic and violent energies just by using their legs.

Furthermore, he actually managed to do it!

Although he did not do it in as collected a manner as the Shadow Twins, people knew that this was not the first time that the Shadow Twins had stepped into the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. They had been here before!

Beside Princess White Fox, the Shadow Twins were watching Yi Yun. A look of astonishment flashed on their identical faces as they said, "Princess, that Yi Yun truly has impressive perception!"

True Martial World - Chapter 881: Shadow Twins

At the Luo Divine Hall trials, the Luo clan and White Fox clan had exchanged quite a large number of elites.

A number of elites that Empress Luo had nurtured were sent to the White Fox clan.

As for the White Fox clan, it had sent an extremely strong lineup that accompanied Princess White Fox.

At the trials, it was not only a competition between Empress Luo and Empress Xuan, it was also a competition between the Luo and White Fox clan!

This destined the trial to be an intense competition!

At that moment, an arc of light shot out of the white spirit cruiser as its hull opened. Appearing from inside the hull were a group of lavishly dressed White Fox disciples. The male disciples made up no more than 20%, while the rest were all female disciples!

At a glance, there were dozens of White Fox clan beauties. Any one of them had beauty that could topple kingdoms!

The White Fox clan's ancestor was a powerful Ancient Fey, the Nine-tailed White Fox. Female White Fox that took human form had an inexplicable charm, and they were considered one of the most perfect beings in the world.

But now, this group of female disciples were one of the most elite girls amongst the White Fox's younger generation with the purest bloodlines. Their looks, bearing and figures were impeccable. The group of beauties that suddenly appeared had different charms. There were those with ample chests or those with slim waists. Some had long, slender fair legs, while others that did not look tall would be petite and adorable. Some had temperaments as cold as jade, as though they were lofty snow lotuses, and there were others that were sultry, and completely capable of bringing down a country to its knees.

Most of them wore fine silk-veiled clothing, and all of them standing together projected an astounding feeling.

Amongst the young male elites of the Luo clan, not everyone was a blessed son of heaven who were pursued by girls like Luo Mo. There were some relatively common male disciples. Being able to suddenly see a bevy of beauties in all styles, they were momentarily dazed when they vaguely made out the beauties' fair legs and arms through the thin veils.

Upon seeing the Luo clan's male disciples looking at them dumbfoundedly, there was a slight stir in the White Fox clan. They began giggling, with laughter as pleasant sounding as orioles birds.

"The White Fox clan indeed lives up to its fame as a charming species. These girls must have cultivated in some illusionary charming techniques. Their auras have already been fully integrated into their bodies. Even without exercising their charm, they can still influence the minds of people."

Yi Yun came to a conclusion upon seeing this scene. Ignoring the looks of the White Fox girls, just their reactions alone could stir up a male's dominating desires.

The long mustached Luo Divine Hall Elder frowned slightly. Emperor Luo had instructed him to lead the Luo Divine Hall trials. Although quite a number of Luo clan geniuses had been sent to the White Fox clan, he could not allow the Luo clan to embarrass itself.

He interrupted the dazed Luo clan youngsters present with a soft grunt. After a momentary surprise, they hurriedly focused their minds and looked somewhat embarrassed.

They had also realized that their reactions were quite embarrassing, and they had unknowingly fallen for the other party's tricks.

At that moment, a red-dressed beauty appeared at the entrance of the white spirit cruiser's hull. She had an ample bosom, and even with an extremely loose dress, there was no way it could hide her voluptuous figure that exuded a mature woman's charm.

"Hehehe, Elder Duanmu, why are you grunting? It's just a look, and the girls don't mind, so what's wrong with that? Furthermore, with the common enemy of the Fey Phantasm Sect, my White Fox clan's Sacred King and His Majesty Emperor Luo have the intentions to begin an alliance. In the future, wouldn't it be common for White Fox clan ladies to marry into the Luo clan?" The red-dressed woman said with a giggle.

Pandemonium seemed to happen as the voluptuousness under her dress made people lose themselves in reverie.

Some of the Luo Clans’s hot-blooded youths could not help but waver on their purpose after hearing her words. What the red-dressed woman said was very alluring. The Luo Divine Hall trials would last a very long time, so it was possible that they could hook up with one of the White Fox beauties, and leave with a beauty in hand!

Just thinking of this made many Luo clan disciples muster up their strength in a bid to showcase themselves at the trials.

"Come on down!"

The red-dressed woman waved her hand.

The elites of the White Fox clan began to step out of the spirit cruiser.

The Luo clan disciples immediately focused. The spatial dimension laws here were extremely chaotic. It was not easy to stand firmly, so they wanted to see how strong these girls from the White Fox clan were. They wanted to see if they were even worthy of them, if a few of them could not even beat a single one of them, how could they win their hand in marriage?

The first to step out of the spirit cruiser was a pair of young girls.

They were extremely tall, with ample breasts and thin waists. Long hair gushed down their backs, while there was a pair of fox ears that could hardly be seen.

They looked like they were made out of the same mold. Twins?

The Luo clan disciples were somewhat astonished. Coupled with their flawless faces, and identical looks, they found it nearly impossible to distinguish them.

"It's the White Fox clan's Shadow Twins!" At that moment, Luo Mo said, "They grew up together with Princess White Fox, and they are personal guards of Princess White Fox. The term, 'guards', might not be appropriate, and instead, they could be described as Princess White Fox's confidants and left and right-hand women."

With Luo Mo saying this, the Shadow Twins had already stepped out of the spirit cruiser. The chaotic laws immediately subjected them to their power, but the duo did not appear to be affected at all. More mysteriously, a faint ripple appeared under their feet, as though they were stepping on a water surface. These ripples emanated out from their feet and it gathered together before destructively interfering with each other into eventual calmness.

And following that, the Shadow Twins took one step after another down the empty space. Every step produced a ripple and these ripples formed a trail that expanded in range. Following that, the young White Fox clan disciples began walking out of the spirit cruiser.

The invisible ripples seemed to stabilize the chaotic void as they created an invisible ground. All of the White Fox disciples were able to stand firmly on the ripples that destructively interfered with each other, as though they were not affected by the chaotic laws!

This scene shocked everyone.

What sort of technique was that?

Not every White Fox clan disciple was able to easily adapt to their surroundings. With the Shadow Twins forging a path ahead, it was as though they had calmed down the chaotic laws, which resulted in all of them appearing unaffected.

It was fascinating!

At that moment, Princess White Fox appeared. She was still dressed in a simple but elegant white robe. Her long white hair and her every gesture had silver bolts lightning circulating around her. The resplendent silver beams added an air of mystery to her.

Quite a few of the Luo clan disciples present had attended the banquet hosted by Empress Luo. Back at the banquet, they did not sense how unfathomable Princess White Fox was, but now in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, they were able to deeply appreciate it.

Princess White Fox's eyes were calm as she slowly walked towards the Luo Divine Hall. Following behind Princess White Fox were four male White Fox clan men.

The White Fox clan men had exquisite appearances like the women, but in the eyes of the members of the Luo clan, this was completely disgusting. Men mostly liked delicate and beautiful women, but how many would like delicate and beautiful men?

At that moment, the White Fox clan men looked at the Luo clan disciples and one of them said, "Who amongst you is Yi Yun?"

True Martial World - Chapter 880: Chaotic Laws

After the lanky elder finished speaking, the hull of spirit cruiser opened. The disciples who came to participate in the Luo Divine Hall trials subsequently flew out.

However, the moment that they stepped out of the spirit cruiser, there were immediately people who stumbled. There were even a few disciples who screamed as they plummeted straight down.

Elder Shi and the other Elders watched coldly, but they had no intention of saving them.

These disciples desperately powered their Yuan Qi before finally stabilizing their bodies. Slowly, they rose up, but from their pale looks, it was obvious that they had been given quite a fright.

They were still about a hundred thousand feet high in the sky. If they truly plummeted down, it would not be a problem in any other common universe, but in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, falling meant a high chance of death.

As warriors, they were already accustomed to flying. Although their Yuan Qi was insufficient to allow them to fly over great distances, just hovering mid-air for a while was easy as lifting a finger. It was practically an inborn instinct.

But just a moment ago, they had to relearn the feeling of flying in air.

"This is a universe that failed to take form, the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. The laws here are different to the 12 Empyrean Heavens. It’s in great disorder. The laws of nature around the landmass that the Luo Divine Hall is situated on is considered to be stable, but there are certain places where every step taken will allow you to encounter different laws. At those places, the energy in your bodies might be triggered by the disorderly laws even while standing. If you fail to control it, you might explode to your deaths, let alone fly." At that moment, an Elder with an extremely long beard spoke slowly.

"But it's because of this that the Primordial Empyrean Heaven is such an excellent place for the trials. In here, you will be able to experience the laws of nature at the primordial birth of the Universe. The laws are disorderly and brutal. But it is also because of this that they are easier to gain insights from. They have not gone through a perfect transformation and maintains their most primordial state. They do not have a system of harmonious trajectories."

"In worlds like the 12 Empyrean Heavens that have taken form, the insights into a law requires you to extract them from their trajectories. Here, there is no need to do so. If you can seize the opportunity, and grasp one law, you would become a dragon or phoenix amongst people."

The bearded Elder was apparently more patient than Elder Shi. However, the look he gave the disciples was dull. How could it be easy to grasp a law? Even in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, gaining insight into laws was still extremely difficult.

It was equivalent to the mortals in the lower realm. They lived on tiny planets. Even if they grasped a tiny law and used the law to fly out of their planets, they were still no different to an ant when it came to the Universe. It was extremely difficult for an ant to even try fathoming the vastness of the entire world.

It was as though the bearded Elder had not spoken in a very long while. Having said his piece, he fell silent.

They had volunteered to stay in the Luo Divine Hall. Other than protecting the Luo Divine Hall, they also went into reclusive cultivation here.

The disciples who were still in the spirit cruiser were appalled. They never expected that just moving alone was difficult enough in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. They still needed to gain insight into laws and battle…

With the lessons drawn from the mistakes of those before them, the remaining disciples were careful when they flew out of the spirit cruiser.

Although many of the disciples had jolted themselves to give their all, they were still unable to find their footing after flying out. Even after familiarizing themselves with the surroundings, they were still unable to stand freely. It was as though they would plummet at any time.

However, there were a group of people who adjusted to it faster. After a few moments of stumbling, they were able to barely stand firm, with no signs of them falling at any time.

Immediately, the disciples who failed to find their footing felt that their faces were burning.

The setback was too great to be immediately proven to be inferior to the other disciples upon arrival at the trial.

However, no matter how well the disciples performed, the two Elders that protected the Luo Divine Hall had their eyelids lowered. They did not pay any attention to them.

"It's Senior Brother Luo Mo." Someone suddenly shouted from amidst the crowd.

Luo Mo, who had competed with Yi Yun at Empress Luo's banquet had arrived.

Luo Mo was still wearing his black-and-white robe. He silently stepped out of the spirit cruiser. Ever since he was defeated by Yi Yun in the Desolate Heaven technique at Empress Luo's banquet, he appeared more staid.

The moment he stepped out, his robe fluttered up, as though it was lifted up by winds. Following that he stably hovered mid-air, no different to normal flying.

"Ze!"

People remarked with a tinge of regret. Indeed, a genius at Luo Mo's level was different.

Behind Luo Mo was a black-dressed youth.

The moment the black-dressed youth appeared, he attracted the attention of many.

The reason why the black-dressed youth attracted the attention of the others was not because of his identity. In fact, many people present had never seen him before.

The youth had a pair of black and bright eyes. He was extremely well kept, with a sword behind his back. He had black short hair, but his face looked somewhat pale.

The bone sword was made of the bone of an unknown beast. It was white like jade and it did not appear sharp at all. Instead, it gave off a warm feeling to others.

The most astonishing thing was that beside the sword's hilt, there was a tiny bird standing on the black-dressed youth's shoulder.

And it was this bird that attracted the eyes of everyone.

The participants present were members of the Fey race. They were extremely sensitive to Fey race bloodlines, so they were certain that the bird was not a powerful Fey beast, to the point that it was most likely an ordinary bird.

Bringing an ordinary bird to the Luo Divine Hall?

The laws in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven were extremely disorderly. Out of the Luo Divine Hall's vicinity, many places could trigger the energies in a person's body due to the chaotic laws to result in an exploding death.

Even in the land mass where the Luo Divine Hall lay, where the laws were slightly more stable, it was still not a place that an ordinary bird could withstand.

A strange scene was seen. When the black-dressed youth stepped out of the spirit cruiser, it was as though he was walking on flat ground. His body did not even quiver once. Even the bird on his shoulder was turning its tiny head in an alacritous manner. From time to time, it would issue clear sounds of chirping. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

That can actually do?

Many people had struggled just to be able to stand firmly, but the youth in front of them had not only stood firmly, but he had also brought a tiny bird.

Who was he?

Such thoughts appeared on many people's minds. It was as though Luo Mo knew the youth, and from his demeanor, he was rather respectful towards the youth.

At that moment, Ran Xueyi, Luo Divine Hall had begun to come out of the spirit cruiser. As two of the four young masters of the royal capital, the both of them were members of the younger generation that were younger than a hundred years old. Obviously, they would not miss the Luo Divine Hall trials.

Just as Ran Xueyi and Donglin Yu were about to step out of the spirit cruiser —

"Whew!"

The sound of the tearing of the void resounded as air was pushed apart. The surrounding laws also turned chaotic. The young disciples, who had struggled to find their footing, stumbled again, as though they were tiny boats bobbing on a huge wave.

People looked up as a gigantic white spirit cruiser descended and it landed near the Luo clan's spirit cruiser.

"It's the White Fox clan's spirit cruiser!"

The gigantic white cruiser had a line made up of large beads across the keel of the boat that resembled the eyeballs of beasts. The line gave off a feeling full of mystery.

"It's Princess White Fox and the disciples of the White Fox clan!" A young Luo clan elite said.

True Martial World - Chapter 879: Primordial Empyrean Heaven

Boom!

The spirit cruiser tore through the void of the world it was in and it began Void Transference.

The moment a spirit cruiser, which was controlled by a Supremacy and also the mount of Emperor Luo, did Void Transference, be it its teleportation distance or the energy it consumed, they were both unimaginable.

The reason why it had to be controlled by a Supremacy was that the venue of the Luo Divine Hall trials was completely unexpected…

Yi Yun stood beside a window of the spirit cruiser. As it passed through space, he saw numerous twinkling lights. These dots of light each represented a star.

Some of these stars were desolate, but there were others brimming with life in their respective solar systems. These lives similarly could give birth to warriors. There were as many lives in the entire 12 Empyrean Heavens as the number of grains of sand on a beach. It was difficult to estimate the number, and even if one was a Supremacy, one would only be able to explore a very tiny area of the entire 12 Empyrean Heavens.

"Junior Brother Yi Yun."

Yi Yun turned around when he heard someone call him. He saw a young man and woman walk towards him.

The man was lanky while the woman was petite.

"I'm Gu Qing. She's Ling Wu. We are both members of the younger generation in Empress Xuan's camp. We might be considered pretty alright in our states, but compared to Junior Brother Yi Yun, we are far too inferior."

Gu Qing laughed. He came to get to know Yi Yun, because be it his current status, or the amount of potential he had revealed, he was someone worth to be acquainted with.

"Senior Brother Gu, you must be joking. I only lucked out on a little bit of Desolate Heaven technique. The upcoming Luo Divine Hall trials is a competition of strength, and I lack the advantage in various aspects."

Just as Yi Yun was speaking, the spirit cruiser suddenly accelerated, as though the void had been torn apart as its fragments transformed into bands of light while they hurtled backward.

"The tunneling through space is about to begin."

Yi Yun had once experienced Void Transference. But compared to the void transference on the spirit cruisers he had ridden before, the bands of light were more than a hundred times brighter. This implied an even stronger spatial force.

It was no wonder that a top-grade spirit cruiser used by Emperor Luo was deployed for this trip. If it was any ordinary spirit cruiser, it would be torn apart by the force of the spatial storms.

"Where are we going?" Yi Yun could not help but ask. He was still clueless about the Luo Divine Hall trials.

"To the Primordial Empyrean Heaven." Ling Wu said.

She had ocean-blue long hair. As she watched the gorgeous band of lights outside the spirit cruiser, her looks revealed a yearning.

"Primordial Empyrean Heaven?"

This was the first time that Yi Yun had heard of such a name.

"The Primordial Empyrean Heaven sits independently outside the 12 Empyrean Heavens. Its volume is relatively smaller than the 12 Empyrean Heavens, but its status is extremely pivotal. Legend says that… it is a world that failed to take form." At that moment, Gu Qing spoke.

Yi Yun was taken aback after hearing this. A world that had failed to take form?

"That's right. In this world, there are stars that are in their inchoate states, fragmentary spaces, the richest Fey God auras, and the power of Chaos… "

Chaos?

Yi Yun was alarmed. He obviously knew what it meant by the word ‘Chaos’. Legend said that the Universe was born out of Chaos. According to the 12 Empyrean Heavens' stories, the 12 Fey Gods came out of Chaos.

After the 12 Empyrean Heavens were formed out of Chaos, most of the power of Chaos had been depleted.

And according to Gu Qing, the Primordial Empyrean Heaven was a world that had failed to take form. If that were the case, leaving behind the power of Chaos was nothing surprising!

What sort of form was the power of Chaos?

Just having the power of Chaos in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven was already an extremely attractive point.

Furthermore, not only was there the power of Chaos, it also contained a lot of opportunities.

It was no wonder that Ling Wu's eyes sparkled when she mentioned the Primordial Empyrean Heaven.

Ling Wu said, "Actually, the White Fox clan's trials are also held in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven. Every sixty years, there will be a moment when the barrier demarcating the Primordial Empyrean Heaven is at its weakest. That also the best time to enter the Primordial Empyrean Heaven."

"This is the reason why the White Fox and Luo clan choose to begin their most important trials on the same day. However, even if the spatial barrier is at its weakest, a top-grade spirit cruiser and a Supremacy are needed to break through the spatial barrier. If not for this reason, how are we even qualified to ride in His Majesty's mount and get to meet Supremacy Gulan."

"Then will we be in the same place as the White Fox clan?" Yi Yun asked. Luo Huo'er was currently together with the White Fox clan.

"Of course not. The Primordial Empyrean Heaven is a very complex environment. Opening up a zone requires a lot of resources and the sacrifice of warriors. No power would be willing to sacrifice so much to share the zone that they open up with others. Our zone is ours, while the White Fox clan's zone is theirs." Gu Qing explained to Yi Yun.

"So that's how it is."

As they spoke, the spirit cruiser began another round of Void Transference.

The beams of light surrounding them grew in intensity till finally, the spirit cruiser came to a halt in a nebulous space.

Primordial Empyrean Heaven!

"This is the world that failed to take form." Yi Yun looked at the space around the cruiser. In fact, this was a universe amidst disorder. Just the Yuan Qi around him felt different from the 12 Empyrean Heavens. An ancient and desolate aura that existed in this Empyrean Heaven.

The Primordial Empyrean Heaven was filled with fog, and amidst the fog, there were fragmentary continental land masses, as well as floating stars.

However, a large majority of the stars were dim and dead silent, as though they were just gigantic pieces of rock. There were some stars and land masses that emanated an extremely dangerous aura.

Yi Yun imagined that they would disembark from the spirit cruiser here, but he never expected that the spirit cruiser would continue flying before landing on a large land mass.

"We're here." Gu Qing said.

"This is the Luo Divine Hall. The Luo clan has set up a large formation array here. Every time Void Transference is used, we would arrive in the vicinity. A short trip here would do." Ling Wu understood a lot about the matter.

Yi Yun looked at the land mass and he noticed a towering but unsophisticated palace, as well as hundreds of tall spires standing above the lands as well.

"This is the Luo Divine Hall." Gu Qing said.

The Luo Divine was the totem of the Luo clan. Legend said that the ancestor of the Luo clan was an extremely powerful Ancient Fey.

"So… the true Luo Divine Hall is actually here. I thought that it would be in the royal capital."

Yi Yun drew a light gasp. There was no vegetation on the land mass. It looked desolate and cold, as though it was a forgotten world.

If the Luo clan could build a Luo Divine Hall in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, it was possible that the White Fox clan did as well. The various factions of the 12 Empyrean Heavens divided the Primordial Empyrean Heaven amongst themselves.

The Primordial Empyrean Heaven was an important ground for them to nurture their talents. There was a delicate balance maintained amongst the factions, with each going their own way.

A few Luo Divine Hall Elders, who were stationed here, had already been waiting in mid-air.

"From today onwards, you will be spending the next eighteen years here! After eighteen years, it is unknown how many of you will be able to leave on the spirit cruiser alive. And amongst you, how many would experience a complete metamorphosis to become a dragon or a phoenix amongst people!?"

"Disembark the spirit cruiser!" Another thin elder took a step forward as he said.

This Elder was truly direct…

The disciples, who had just arrived in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, were still feeling fascinated about their surroundings. But at the moment that they arrive, it was like a figurative basin of cold water had been poured over them to dampen their spirits. Many of them immediately wiped the wonderment from their minds and fighting spirit and diligence appeared in their eyes.

True Martial World - Chapter 878: Supremacy Gulan

In this palace, Princess White Fox was wearing a white veil dress. With a book in her hand, she was quietly sitting on a bed. As the sunlight filtered through the veil, one could vaguely discern her body's beautiful contours.

In the warrior's world, be it reading or writing, people were accustomed to using jade slips that could contain a lot more content, but Princess White Fox preferred the feeling of having a paper-based book in her hand.

Upon hearing the huffing voice, Princess White Fox raised her head and she looked at her personal maidservant. She was like an angry kitten who had come before her to complain.

Princess White Fox smiled. Putting down her book, she said, "Ling'er, are you referring to my brother's bet with Princess Purple Spirit?"

"Princess, you have already got wind of it?" The maidservant stared at her with widened eyes.

"Yeah, I got wind of it, as well as some of the words used." Princess White Fox said lightly.

The maidservant was momentarily taken back before she said, "Princess, aren't you angry? That fellow named Yi Yun has no shame at all. He even said that he has no interest in travelling with Princess. Who does he think he is? There are so many people who want to travel with Princess that even the entire Luo clan royal capital couldn’t contain them if they lined up. Even Prince Crimson Firmament yearns for it, but this Yi Yun… "

Princess White Fox said with a laugh, "Everyone has their own preferences and choices. You may like beautiful clothes and accessories, but warriors like superior-grade sabers and swords, and a farmer might like fertile soil. There's nothing odd about that. So, why should I be mad? However, there is one point that is true. As Princess White Fox, I represent the entire White Fox clan. My pride is the glory of the White Fox clan. Regardless of anything, Luo Huo'er and Yi Yun's words can be considered a challenge to me. At the Luo Divine Hall trials, I would probably be with Yi Yun. When the time comes, I want to see what Yi Yun's true strength is."

...

Time soon passed and with that, a month had passed.

Luo Huo’er had accompanied a White Fox clan ambassador to head for the White Fox clan. As for Yi Yun, he remained in the Luo clan royal capital to consolidate his cultivation realm.

Today was the day that the Luo Divine Hall trials began.

Every sixty years, the Luo Divine Hall would hold a trial that lasted eighteen years!

Yi Yun was quite surprised when he first heard of the Luo Divine Hall trials that lasted eighteen years.

Why did it last so long?

"Of course it's long… " Empress Xuan stood on a high platform. Behind her were elites that were going to participate in the trials. She was dressed in a lavish regal outfit, and she looked domineering. "The trials is not just a single test. In fact, it is the most important opportunity of the Luo Divine Hall. It happens once every sixty years, and it lasts for eighteen years each time. The eighteen years are extremely important, they are a stage for you to build your foundation." Empress Xuan slowly said.

Yi Yun, along with other disciples who had joined Empress Xuan's camp, including Gu Qing, Ling Wu, etc, were all present. They were all elites from the various Luo clan states. Furthermore, they were mostly less than fifty years old. Amongst the younger generation, they were considered the youngest juniors.

"Huo'er's trial will also begin at the same time as our Luo clan's. In fact, many clans and Fey countries in the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven chose today as the beginning of an important trial for their young disciples." Empress Xuan added on.

"Oh? Other Fey countries have the trials going on concurrently as well?" Yi Yun was surprised. It was obviously not a coincidence with so many powerful factions choosing this day for the beginning of their trials.

At that moment…

A spirit cruiser flew over and it landed on a square in front of the crowd.

The spirit cruiser looked extremely special. It looked like a carp that was covered in scales. It had two long tentacles growing by its large mouth and its eyes were bright. If it wasn’t for its surface having indications of it being made out of metal, Yi Yun would have believed that it was a gigantic carp.

"This spirit cruiser is truly strange… "

"It's indeed strange… " At that moment, Empress Xuan spoke. "Our entire Luo clan only has two spirit cruisers of this grade. One of them is used by His Majesty, and the other is by the Imperial Uncle. And the one in front of you is His Majesty's mount. These two spirit cruisers are one of the cornerstones of the Luo clan!"

Emperor Luo's mount?

The people present were amazed. Just heading to the Luo Divine Hall trials required using Emperor Luo's mount?

"The spirit cruiser in front of you was a golden carp from ancient times. This is the body that it left behind after failing to transform into a dragon. Using its body as a foundation, this spirit cruiser was constructed. Hence, the spirit cruiser you see resembles a carp."

An ancient parable in the Fey race describes how a golden carp transforms into a dragon goes — A Jinlin is in no case a common creature living in the pool, but it changes into a dragon upon facing a storm. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Yi Yun had never expected that the spirit cruiser in front of him was refined using a golden carp's corpse.

The corpse of an ancient beast like a golden carp was unimaginably valuable.

But even so, Empress Xuan had just said that the two spirit cruiser were the cornerstones of the Luo clan and they were of paramount importance. Clearly, such a spirit cruiser was not simply used for traveling only.

At that moment, a middle-aged man dressed in white robes appeared from the gigantic carp's mouth.

He had long purple hair, and his eyes were deep blue in color, resembling the deep starry sky. Just standing there nonchalantly made the light around him distort. Yi Yun knew that this was a manifestation of the Dao.

The person standing at the fish's mouth had unfathomable strength. It was even very likely that this was the strongest person that Yi Yun had ever encountered in person so far!

"Your Majesty."

The blue-eyed man nodded slightly at Empress Xuan.

From the fact that he did not need to bow at Empress Xuan was enough to show of his esteemed status!

And following that, Empress Xuan's words made everyone understand his identity.

"Supremacy Gulan, we haven't met each other in a thousand years… "

Supremacy?

This was not the first time that Yi Yun had heard such a term. Even in the 12 Empyrean Heavens, a Supremacy was considered to be a powerhouse. And in the Luo clan, Supremacies were exempt from bowing, even when greeting Emperor Luo. They would only bow when they met the third Imperial Uncle.

Every few decades, a new batch of geniuses and elites would be born in the Luo clan. Amongst these geniuses, there would be existences at the pinnacle. But true Supremacys could be counted with one's hand in the Luo clan.

This was the first time that Yi Yun heard of Supremacy Gulan, but many of the elites present already knew the few Supremacies in the Luo clan.

"He's Supremacy Gulan! For our trip to the Luo Divine Hall trials, we actually get to ride on His Majesty's spirit cruiser and have a Supremacy lead the way! The whole situation is so fantastic… " Someone said in surprise.

The situation appeared exaggerated regardless of anything.

"There's no other way. The place we are going cannot be entered without a Supremacy powering the golden carp spirit cruiser… " Someone who understood the Luo Divine Hall trials well said with mixed emotions.

It was also because of this reason that Empress Xuan had mentioned that the two spirit cruisers owned by Emperor Luo and the third Imperial Uncle were the cornerstones of the Luo clan. The reason was mostly attributed to the fact that spirit cruisers at that grade were the keys to activating the Luo Divine Hall trials.

Without spirit cruisers at such a grade, the Luo clan would lose the ability to nurture their young elites.

True Martial World - Chapter 877: Too Infuriating

He knew very well that there was a deeper meaning to Luo Huo'er’s ’don't disappoint me’. And in fact, this bet was all a result of Luo Huo'er's playful mindset — she was essentially a young brat who craved to see the world plunge into chaos.

"Huo'er, you are up to your wanton mischief again." At that moment, Empress Xuan's Yuan Qi voice transmission rang. "Do you know what thoughts Crimson Firmament will have if your bet were to come into effect? Yi Yun will become the stye in his eye, a cause of pain that he will want to get rid off."

Despite hearing Empress Xuan's words, Luo Huo'er said in a displeased manner, "Yi Yun is already a stye in Crimson Firmament's eye. Making it a little larger will not make a difference. Furthermore, I'm also a stye in Crimson Firmament's eye."

Empress Xuan did not speak further after Luo Huo'er's retort. She only shook her head because it was indeed without a doubt that Yi Yun was already a stye in Crimson Firmament's eye.

"Your Highness, are you pulling my leg?" Bai Yueqing's smile faltered slightly. Although Bai Yueqing did not believe that the White Fox clan would lose to the Luo clan, Luo Huo'er's words sounded rather harsh to his ears.

"Letting Yi Yun accompany Princess White Fox on her travels?" Bai Yueqing gave Yi Yun a look of disdain. "He is unqualified. This Prince will not agree to this bet."

Bai Yueqing believed that his regal bearing was already rather esteemed, but at this point in time, he could no longer tolerate it. He felt that Luo Huo'er was constantly teasing him. Hence, he said those words. He no longer concealed his belittlement of Yi Yun.

When Yi Yun heard this, he glanced at Bai Yueqing. He saw a feature in Bai Yueqing's eyes that was only seen in wild beasts, a cold urge to kill.

In fact, he had sensed the white fox's belittlement and animosity right from the very beginning.

Yi Yun was also not someone to be messed with either. Having been earmarked for attacks, he said, "The two of you want me to accompany Princess White Fox on her travels, but you have yet to ask for my thoughts. I want to say that I don't have any intentions of traveling with Princess White Fox, to begin with. The opportunity you think that I'll be yearning for is actually worth nothing to me."

Yi Yun's final words were directed at Bai Yueqing.

Bai Yueqing was dumbfounded hearing this. Not only Bai Yueqing was dumbfounded, even Luo Huo'er was dumbfounded for a moment before she revealed a naughty smile.

"Nice going, Little Yun!" Luo Huo'er said with a voice transmission. What Yi Yun had said pleased her greatly.

"What did you just say?" Bai Yueqing's face turned sullen. New flames of killing intent began to burn in his eyes as he looked at Yi Yun.

Seeing Bai Yueqing's reaction, Yi Yun smiled and said, "It's truly interesting. Princess Purple Spirit wants me to accompany Princess White Fox on her travels, and you say that I'm unqualified and unworthy. I took the initiative to mention that I do not want to travel with Princess White Fox, but not only were you not happy about it, you turned furious. Could it be that in your mind, I should be pleading on my knees to accompany Princess White Fox on her travels, and you would kick me away and curse me for being a toad that lusts over a swan's meat? Would you feel happy only when that happens?"

What Yi Yun said had hit the nail on the head. Indeed, in Bai Yueqing's subconsciousness, it was only right for the White Fox royal family to reject others, and not the other way round.

Bai Yueqing coldly looked at Yi Yun. If this was anywhere outside Fenghua Palace, he would have killed Yi Yun.

"Whether Her Highness wishes to stay in the White Fox clan is her freedom. By using a bet to force her to stay in the White Fox clan is such a hopeless act!"

He said those face-smacking words without fearing anything. Luo Huo'er and even Empress Xuan wanted to give their kudos to Yi Yun.

Having been blindsided by Empress Luo, the machinations of Empress Luo against her daughter, and how Emperor Luo was seemingly agreeing to the marriage, how could Empress Xuan not be infuriated? She found Bai Yueqing unpleasing to the eyes no matter how she looked at him. But now, with Yi Yun throwing out those words, Empress Xuan was elated.

Of course, she could not speak her thoughts. Empress Xuan said with an angry glare, "Yi Yun, how can you say such words? Prince Yueqing is a guest of the Luo clan."

Although it sounded like she was reprimanding Yi Yun, was there any inkling of admonishment from her tone?

Bai Yueqing was incensed. With so many people present, his prestige as a prince had been torn apart. As for the bet, he no longer cared about it.

However, he never expected Luo Huo'er to suddenly say, "I can agree to your bet. If the Luo clan loses, I will stay in the White Fox clan for a year of travel, but if the Luo clan wins… "

Luo Huo'er paused upon saying that, "I wish that you and I will no longer have any correspondence in the future."

This bet…

Yi Yun gave Luo Huo'er an odd glance. The bet had deeper implications. After all, the White Fox clan had yet to propose any marriage alliances with the Luo clan. If the White Fox clan truly lost, with the bet in place, it was unlikely for the White Fox clan to be shameless enough to propose a marriage alliance.

"Alright!" Bai Yueqing spat out the word. "Then This Prince shall be taking his leave. May Princess Purple Spirit prepare for her trip to the White Fox clan in the coming days!"

After saying his words, Bai Yueqing did not stay a moment longer. He led his servants and left Fenghua Palace!

When he saw Bai Yueqing leave, Yi Yun smacked his lips and transmitted his voice to Luo Huo'er. "Why are you so confident?"

"I'm not confident. Bai Yueqing isn't a fool. For him to dare propose the bet, he naturally has something backing him. So… all of this is on you, Little Yun." Luo Huo'er said casually, rendering Yi Yun speechless.

Luo Huo'er was truly too bold.

"If it's the Desolate Heaven technique, I might have some confidence. But if it comes to martial arts, be it my foundation or physique, they are far inferior to top geniuses’."

Yi Yun knew himself. The geniuses in the Luo clan royal capital were on a completely different level to the Fire Cloud State's.

After all, Yi Yun had just come to the Ten Thousand Fey Empyrean Heaven. His potential had yet to be developed. In terms of foundation, he was at a disadvantage.

"There's no hurry. We can take a step at a time. The Luo Divine Hall trials last for quite a period of time." At that moment, Empress Xuan spoke. She sighed slightly before saying, "Regardless of the case, Empress Luo has made a good move. Even if Huo'er extricates herself from Bai Yueqing's marriage alliance, if Prince Crimson Firmament succeeds in his marriage alliance with Princess White Fox, under the threat of the Fey Phantasm Sect, His Majesty would still consider Prince Crimson Firmament as his heir. Furthermore, if Huo'er were to inherit the throne, her relationship with the new emperor of the White Fox clan might not be so cordial."

Empress Xuan was filled with worries. Just this move allowed Crimson Firmament to take another step closer to the throne.

"Maybe Crimson Firmament's marriage alliance will fail?"

The corners of Luo Huo'er's mouth curled up as she revealed her lustrous canine teeth. Although she was disinterested in the throne, she did not want to lose either, especially with Empress Luo machinating against her.

She wanted to win against her, and make that old witch weep!

...

News of Luo Huo'er and Bai Yueqing's bet quickly proliferated.

The bet was obviously not concealed as it needed the notarization of the public.

In fact, the announcement of the bet was entrusted to the maidservants by Luo Huo'er. With her penchant for chaos to pervade the world, those Fenghua Palace maidservants reproduced whatever they knew. It even included the first bet that Luo Huo'er had proposed — ‘Letting Yi Yun accompany Princess White Fox on her travels’, as well as Yi Yun's subsequent refusal.

With that, news spread quickly in the royal capital!

Everyone who heard the news was stupefied.

They were not surprised at the bet agreed upon by Luo Huo'er and Bai Yueqing, but by what Yi Yun had said.

The status that Princess White Fox enjoyed was heads and shoulders above the cream of the crop. In the White Fox clan, her status was nearly equivalent to Luo Huo'er's!

But she had been ridiculed by Luo Huo'er and following that… she had been rejected by Yi Yun?

The opportunity to travel with Princess White Fox was worth nothing to Yi Yun?

Yi Yun's words were not only infuriating and surprising to members of the White Fox clan, but also to members of the Luo clan. They were all dumbfounded. Yi Yun was too good at posturing.

...

"Princess! Princess!"

In an elegantly adorned palace in the Luo clan royal capital, a petite maidservant ran over. She had a pair of sharp white fox ears protruding at the top of her head, and a bushy tail behind her. She was clearly a girl from the White Fox clan, but she had yet to fully complete her human manifestation.

"Princess, do you know what has happened outside? It's completely infuriating!" The maidservant said huffily as she ran.
