Chapter 479 -451: A Startling Event in Heavenly Palace
“Can the fairy leave now?”
The Jiaoshou general held a large halberd and gripped the Jade Slip, looking towards the girl who had used the Illusory Form Technique.
He even took the time to shake his head, feeling a touch of regret.
The Fairy of Baohua’s reputation was quite significant among the Aquatic Race, but today there was no opportunity to behold her beauty.
The humpbacked old man hung his head, his expression filled with emotions.
Even he hadn’t anticipated that Lord Dragon would value his master so highly, that even amidst tense relations with the Dragon Queen, he still sent a general from the Dragon Palace.
With the intervention from the Dragon Palace, today’s affair had come to an end.
“Leave now,” Serpent Woman sat back on the couch, her look one of wariness and envy as she glanced over.
She didn’t think the woman deserved the title of a fairy, but even with someone from the Dragon Palace protecting her, she dared not be too presumptuous in front of her.
Xiao Yuanlin summoned all his strength to lift his head and strained his eyelids to look at the Fairy of Baohua.
Even without a spike in his mouth, he actually did not know what to say.
While he was not a renowned powerhouse, he was still the lord of a fortress; he saw this situation quite clearly.
His wife had always respected the fairy.
Now that it was beyond his control, a matter of fate, he had no need to add burdens to the fairy’s heart.
With that thought, he let his head hang down again.
In the instant Xiao Yuanlin withdrew his gaze, a crisp sound suddenly rang out in the hall.
Crack.
The Fairy of Baohua suddenly threw something from her waist, furiously lunging towards the palm of the Jiaoshou general.
Two Jade Slips collided and shattered into powder almost simultaneously.
“Hiss.”
The Jiaoshou general instinctively withdrew his hand, his face shifting unpredictably as he looked towards the Fairy of Baohua.
What was this? Defying the Sect’s orders?!
Let’s not forget, even as the designated Sect Leader Heir, that’s a status for who knows how many years in the future, at least for now, she is still just a Direct Disciple.
He did not fear this woman.
It was just out of consideration for the Dragon Queen that he did not wish to escalate matters.
The status of the Fairy of Baohua wasn’t all that powerful, but wasn’t considered low either; regardless, if they really moved against her, covering it up and avoiding the Dragon Queen’s attention would be almost impossible.
This woman breaking the Jade Slip indicated she had lost her rationality.
“Please calm down for a moment, fairy,”
Considering this, the Jiaoshou general suppressed his emotions, “You didn’t act before, presumably because you are not a rash person who disregards the safety of the Sect. How about this, let us both take a step back?”
He clenched the halberd as he spoke, “Just as you suggested earlier, let your companion handle this affair. We won’t resort to weapons and won’t interfere, how does that sound?”
“Whatever the outcome, it won’t affect the relationship between the Treasure Flower Sect and the Western Palace.”
The Jiaoshou general pointed at the humpbacked old man, “He is only at the Fourth Level of Returning Void, so it wouldn’t be taking advantage of you.”
Upon hearing this, Fairy of Baohua fell silent for a moment, then the corners of her lips curled with a cold intent, “Why do you think my revenge can be treated like a matter to be bargained over, as if it’s child’s play?”
She seemed to understand Shen Yi’s thoughts from before.
“What you’re doing now is the true child’s play,” the Jiaoshou general shook his head, consoling, “You bear the name of a fairy, yet you don’t consider the stance of the Baohua Sect when dealing with issues. For the life of a single disciple, you’re willing to place all other disciples at odds with the Western Palace. Think about it, do you really have the qualification to do so?”
“…”
The Fairy of Baohua’s breathing became more and more rapid.
“The old servant requests to fight!”
At that moment, the humpbacked old man suddenly stepped forward, standing in front of the Serpent Woman without hesitation.
In his murky eyes, a murderous intent quietly spread.

“Heh.”
Fairy of Baohua felt both her palms trembling uncontrollably with rage.
She turned to look down and saw the slender figure shrouded in an ink robe, standing with hands hanging down, his gaze calm and indifferent.
“I…I can’t add any more.”
The girl’s voice choked up, “Can you help me take revenge?”
Her greatest support had suddenly betrayed her.
The cultivation that she was most proud of had been forcibly restrained by a few words from the person opposite her.
Under the stupefied gaze of the Fairy of Baohua…
Shen Yi finally took a step and climbed the stone fortress, his voice casual, “Return to Void Fourth Level, no need to add.”
Conducting business demands credibility.
“…”
The General with the dragon’s head revealed an almost imperceptible sneer, “Let it be so, if you truly have the skill, feel free to come and kill.”
It was as if he was reminding of something.
As his words ended…
The hunchbacked old man slowly took out a radiant Treasure Bead, opened his mouth to an exaggerated extent, and then, with veins bulging at the corners of his eyes, stuffed the bead into his mouth.
The General with the dragon’s head had already given the signal.
It proved how much the Dragon Palace valued their master, now all that was needed was to handle the trouble at hand, and this poor young girl, who had only this old servant to care for her, could truly soar to the heavens in one leap.
As the Treasure Bead caused his neck to swell, and was then gradually swallowed…
Color gradually suffused the old man’s face, and his aura began to surge dramatically, much like his stature, growing by leaps and bounds!
“You all…” The Fairy of Baohua suddenly realized something, her eyes wide open in shock.
“This is also one of its own tactics, it doesn’t break the rules,” the General with the dragon’s head said with a faint smile.
“Ha! How outrageous! You think only you have tactics.”
Watching the Turtle Demon’s boundary jump to the Fifth Level of Returning Void, the Fairy of Baohua subconsciously took out an Elixir, intending to throw it to Shen Yi, but then she suddenly remembered the terrifying pill poison within his body.
The Turtle Demon was the servant of the Serpent Woman, swallowing this bead, though it seemed remarkably effective, would definitely cost its life.
But Shen Yi owed her nothing.
The Fairy of Baohua tightly gripped the Elixir and looked back at the figure in the ink robe.
“…”
Shen Yi silently observed the Turtle Demon’s transformation.
This was why he disliked competing with others; usually, at the moment when the opponent swallowed that bead, he would’ve already thrown a punch.
“The old servant will proceed.”
The hunchbacked old man looked back at the Serpent Woman on the bed, then without hesitation, stepped forward, his powerful aura spreading with his every step.
Xiao Yuanlin raised his head again, his eyes void of spirit as he looked toward the young man at the Second Level of Returning Void.
He didn’t quite understand what was happening.
Just then, he suddenly saw a strand of golden flame streaking out, immediately transforming into a surging sea of fire.
Golden flame appeared on Shen Yi’s brow, his pupils glistened like burnished gold.
His aura quickly surpassed the watershed and reached the Fourth Level of Returning Void.
Clearly, even with the tremendous increase, the gap between them was still evident.
“…”
Seeing the disdain in the depths of the General with the dragon’s head’s eyes, the Fairy of Baohua felt an inexplicable panic in her heart.
At that moment, however, she saw Shen Yi casually form a spell with his hands.
In an instant, a profound aura immediately enveloped the entire Xiao family fortress, and even the whole sky.
Almost everyone’s line of sight was filled with that dazzling strand of purple.
Auspicious purple clouds rise from the east.
The Heavenly Palace manifests in the world.
