Chapter 60 - No Female Lead
When the young monk, the towering man, and the Daoist priests finally left, the white cat immediately jumped off Lin Jiufeng’s arms.
Meow ~
It called out and then moved its claws as it wrote a few words.
“You are releasing them just like that?”
Lin Jiufeng thought for a while and asked, “Should I go ahead and kill them then?”
The white cat was dumbfounded.
Come to think of it, other than breaking into the Cold Palace, they didn’t do anything out of line.
Lin Jiufeng shook his head and said, “The mastermind is that Miss Hong. What can we change by killing them?”
“What’s your relationship with this Miss Hong?” The white cat wrote curiously.
“I don’t know her.” Lin Jiufeng thought about it carefully, but he still had no idea about who this Miss Hong was.
The white cat looked at Lin Jiufeng suspiciously. It didn’t believe him.
The white cat continued to write.
“Why did she get four Human Gods to come here and find you then?”
“It is probably because she likes and admires me,” Lin Jiufeng replied with a rather serious look on his face.
“Shameless!” The white cat wrote down this word and jumped away.
Lin Jiufeng looked at its shadow. He didn’t say anything, but he wiped off the word with his foot.
Under the cherry blossom tree, Lin Jiufeng raised his head and fell into deep thought as he looked at the blossoming trees.
Lin Jiufeng had no idea where this Miss Hong came from. He released the four Human Gods because he wanted to tell her not to disturb the dethroned Crown Prince’s life.
As for Miss Hong’s identity, Lin Jiufeng didn’t want to know.
He just wanted to sign in quietly within the Cold Palace.
…
After the four Human Gods left the Imperial Capital, they all heaved a sigh of relief.
They felt that lady luck had favored them today because that senior spared their lives.
The young monk, the Daoist priests, and the man from the Northern Desert region all took out their paper cranes as they described what had happened in its entirety.
They let the paper cranes bring this information to Miss Hong.
They failed, not because they weren’t working hard, but the other party was simply too powerful.
A stream of True Qi caused cherry blossoms to bloom all over the cherry trees.
It also made them unable to move. What was the point of fighting against someone like that?
The gap between them was so huge that the arrogance these four people had after they ascended to the Human God Realm instantly vanished.
They discovered that not just any Human God could suppress a buddhist sacred ground with a painting. It turned out that even among those in the Human God Realm, there was such a terrifying existence.
They were like children compared to him.
The four Human Gods suffered a huge blow.
At the same time, they decided in their hearts that the Imperial capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty had one of the most terrifying existences in the world.
At the same time, they decided in their hearts that considering that the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty housed one of the most terrifying experts in the world—they agreed in unison that it was a place that they must never casually visit!
…
Great Yan Dynasty…
Temple of the Holy Maiden…
The Holy Maiden—Miss Hong was cultivating in peace.
All of a sudden, three paper cranes flew over to her.
They passed through the layers of defense before arriving at the Temple of the Holy Maiden.
The contemporary Holy Maiden of the Great Yan Dynasty—Miss Hong—opened her eyes.
“They have news about the dethroned Crown Prince?” The Holy Maiden looked at the paper cranes in surprise. She reached out and grabbed one of them.
Then, she listened to the news depicted within the paper crane.
Her surprise slowly disappeared.
It was replaced with a frown on her face riddled with confusion.
‘Is that Human God in the Imperial Capital of the Yuhua God Dynasty really that powerful?’
Miss Hong couldn’t help but doubt.
She opened the second paper crane and listened to the report inside of it.
The information recorded was the same.
He didn’t encounter the dethroned Crown Prince. Instead, he encountered the Human God living in seclusion within the confines of the Imperial Capital.
Then, he was suppressed with a flick of that Human God’s finger.
She listened to the third paper crane.
It was exactly the same, this one had encountered that Human God too.
“Is that Human God really that powerful?” Miss Hong mumbled in surprise once more.
Although the rejuvenating rain had lasted for several years, only a few people managed to reach the Human God Realm. What was more terrifying was that this person was at the second stage of the Human God Realm.
If what was described within the paper cranes was true, then that Human God possessed terrifying strength.
The young monk, the towering man, and the two Daoist priests only managed to reach the Human God Realm after her guidance.
But a Human God was still a Human God.
She didn’t expect them to fail so easily.
‘Should I go there personally?’ Miss Hong pondered.
She carefully considered this idea.
As long as she could help that dethroned Crown Prince, then her soul should be able to recover, right?
“I can help him sit on the throne again…” Miss Hong’s eyes lit up.
She decided to go to the Imperial Capital personally.
But at this moment, a compass flew down from the center of the hall.
The compass was four meters wide, and there were countless black spots emitting black smoke in the center of the compass.
Upon closer inspection, the compass seemed to be representing the surface area of the entire continent.
Miss Hong’s expression changed.
She walked closer to take a look and mumbled solemnly, “There are these strange movements again. They really want to break the barrier, eh? I need to suppress them and stall for enough time so that I can make a breakthrough into the next stage as soon as possible.”
There was a sudden change in the situation.
So many locations depicted on the map were showing problems. If she didn’t go there and suppress these problems, her advantage in appearing early in this new epoch would vanish.
“If only I didn’t get injured back then with my essence damaged, I would already be very powerful by now. In addition, a Crown Prince with a bright future wouldn’t even have to be implicated with my matters. My Divine Soul also wouldn’t end up incomplete with the only way to let it recover is to repay my debt of gratitude to that Crown Prince,” Miss Hong muttered angrily.
She knew that she couldn’t go to the Imperial Capital for the time being.
She had to suppress the problems in these locations.
‘I shall get someone to go to the Imperial Capital and give the dethroned Crown Prince some supplements so that he can live a long life. When I’m done with these, I’ll help him take his revenge.’ Miss Hong decided.
She picked up a paper crane and tossed it out.
…
Just as he was about to leave the imperial capital and return to the Jiangnan area, Monk Qingyun once again received Miss Hong’s paper crane.
The paper crane brought with it a piece of information from Miss Hong.
It asked Monk Qingyun to go and give the dethroned Crown Prince some supplements to restore the condition of his body to his prime and let him live a long life.
The supplements were being carried by the same paper crane.
There was a small space within the paper crane—it contained various pills, godly medicines, and supplements.
Monk Qingyun was helpless. He could only go to the Cold Palace again.
Arriving at the door of the Cold Palace, he knocked respectfully.
Standing under the cherry blossom tree, Lin Jiufeng frowned and said coldly, “You’re here again? What do you want?”
“Senior, I’m here to deliver a gift to the dethroned Crown Prince,” said Monk Qingyun.
He didn’t dare to hide anything at all and explained what Miss Hong had instructed him to do.
Lin Jiufeng listened with a strange look on his face.
Who exactly was this Miss Hong?
Why was she so concerned about his health?
And what supplement? Did he still have to make up for his deficiencies?
Was there even a deficiency in the first place?!
He was already extremely healthy!
After a moment of silence, Lin Jiufeng said, “Put the things down. You may leave.”
Monk Qingyun obeyed and decisively left.
He wanted to return to Jiangnan.
He didn’t want to stay in the Imperial Capital for any second longer.
This place was just too terrifying.
After a while, a figure appeared in front of the Cold Palace.
It was Lin Jiufeng.
He picked up the supplements sent here by Monk Qingyun.
“Such a heavy gift, who exactly is this Miss Hong?”
Lin Jiufeng shook his head, not knowing the other party’s identity.
Meow!
The white cat jumped down and wrote a line of words.
“What exactly did you do to this Miss Hong?”
Lin Jiufeng shook his head in confusion.
He didn’t do anything, all right?
Lin Jiufeng really wanted to say that to the white cat.
For decades, he never had a female lead in his life, okay?
