Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7118
Chapter 7029: Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law!
This Celestial Venerable-level Dao Treasure had mitigated the influence of the three Little Sixes on Jiuding’s soul during his battle with Li Tianming.
However, besides protecting the soul, it also had another wondrous use: detecting fluctuations in the soul.
All living beings possess a soul, differing only in strength, so using the Divine Soul Bead to evade tracking was very effective.
The Divine Soul Bead emitted a soft white light, spreading out a faint halo.
After a while, feedback was received; the halo seemed to bounce back, gradually shrinking.
Finally, the pale white halo merged with the Divine Soul Bead, flashing a lustrous glow.
“There shouldn’t be any problems…” Jiuding muttered to himself, then solemnly put the Divine Soul Bead away.
Having done this, he took out the communication star tower to make contact.
However, before the other end of the communication star tower could receive the message, it was directly cut off.
A while later,
a man and a woman emerged from the shadows before Jiuding.
The man had sharply angled eyebrows that swept into his temples, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s. His hair was the same color as Jiu Ding’s, and his handsome face carried an imposing aura.
Jiu Ding had a face somewhat similar to his, equally handsome, suggesting a close relationship between the two.
Another woman had watery eyes and slightly upturned red lips, possessing a captivating, enigmatic smile. Her hair was the same color as Jiu Yuan’s.
“Third Brother, Third Sister-in-law,” Jiu Ding greeted them, bowing slightly.
Both their appearances and Jiu Ding’s address indicated they were members of the Nine Star Imperial Clan.
“Hmm,” the handsome middle-aged man nodded, responding calmly.
With a flick of his wrist, he summoned a nine-star unified, colorful star realm in his palm.
As the star realm’s power surged, it slowly expanded until it could accommodate the three of them.
Crackling sounds
filled the air as flames burned and thunder roared, several destructive forces erupting simultaneously.
This scene was like the most terrifying cosmic calamity wreaking havoc in a small world, quickly blasting all the cosmic matter within this space into stardust.
Once everything calmed down, the handsome middle-aged man said calmly, “Let’s go in. Now no one can monitor us.”
Jiuding nodded solemnly, decisively passing through the boundary wall of the Nine Star Realm and entering it.
The handsome middle-aged man from the Nine Star Imperial Clan and the beautiful woman exchanged a glance and entered the Nine Star Realm one after the other.
From the outside, only a colorful sphere could be seen; it was impossible to observe the people inside or hear any sounds.
The space was completely sealed within this small sphere.
“Is it necessary to be so cautious? We’ve already come to such a remote place. Could it be that he has spies planted in a place like this?” Upon entering the Nine Star Realm, the beautiful woman frowned, somewhat dissatisfied.
“There’s nothing we can do. This kid’s method of collecting evidence of illusory creation is truly bizarre. I still can’t figure out how he did it. We still need to be cautious and not take any risks, lest we give him a handle and disrupt the Emperor’s plans.” Jiuding sighed slightly, somewhat helplessly.
“If I had known this trip would turn out this troublesome, I wouldn’t have left the Heavenly Emperor Sect. Now, stuck in this remote and impoverished place, I’d rather stay in my Yan Gui Palace and cultivate.” The beautiful woman curled her lip in disdain.
This beautiful woman was Jiuding’s third sister-in-law, Jiu Yan Gui.
The other handsome middle-aged man was Jiuding’s third brother, Jiu Si Heng.
Jiu Siheng frowned upon hearing this and said, “Being a guest advisor to the Emperor is a blessing that others would kill for. It’s only because Yuan’er is sensible and wanted to bring more opportunities back to the clan that she managed to secure this opportunity for us. In the future, it’s fine to grumble about this in private, but you must never let others hear it, understand?”
“Why are you taking it so seriously? Do you think I’m such a woman who can’t distinguish between what’s important and what’s not?” Jiu Yangui rolled her eyes and scolded.
“When it comes to matters concerning the Emperor, we must be cautious. It’s best not to let certain thoughts even arise in the first place, so as to eliminate the possibility of making a mistake,” Jiu Siheng said with a slightly cold tone.
“It’s not entirely my fault, it’s just that I’ve been feeling really stifled lately.” Jiu Yangui’s red lips moved slightly as she sighed softly, saying, “I originally thought I could take advantage of the Emperor’s prestige this time and enjoy the thrill of conquest, but then Li Tianming suddenly appeared. Now, because of his existence, even as the Grand Imperial Tutor, I feel somewhat constrained in my actions, it’s really annoying.”
At this moment, Jiu Ding sneered, “Don’t worry, Third Sister-in-law, this Li Tianming dares to oppose the Emperor, he definitely won’t be smug for long. Actually, watching his imperial path slowly collapse, and the people and things he protects being gradually destroyed, isn’t without its own kind of fun…”
Upon hearing this, Jiu Yangui’s eyes flickered slightly, and she slowly curled her red lips, saying, “Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit interesting.”
Jiu Siheng remained silent for a long time, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
“What are you thinking about? You seem so absent-minded?” Jiu Yangui nudged his shoulder.
Jiu Siheng reacted, somewhat puzzled, and said, “I just don’t understand how Li Tianming was discovered. Logically speaking, he’s a mixed-race individual with low potential, he shouldn’t even meet the entry requirements for the Ascending Heaven Gate assessment…”
Upon hearing this, Jiu Ding raised his eyes and said, “Third Brother, I’ve now investigated most of his background, and I know a little about this matter.”
“Tell me about it,” Jiu Siheng said with interest.
Jiuding nodded slightly, then his gaze sharpened slightly as he said, “It’s said he came with a letter of recommendation from the local Star Surveillance Envoy, so he didn’t need to undergo the initial screening. A junior imperial tutor named Li Muyun took him to the Desolate Star System for the formal assessment, and now Li Muyun is serving as a guest advisor in his army.”
“A letter of recommendation makes sense then.” Jiu Siheng nodded, then frowned slightly, lost in thought. “But this Li Muyun…”
Seeing this, Jiuding raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, and asked, “Is there anything different about this woman?”
“Nothing, I just feel like I’ve heard her name somewhere before.” Jiu Siheng pondered, then tilted his head and asked, “By the way, which tower master was he in for the Young Emperor Trial?”
