Chapter 633: Chapter 258: Are You Ready to Leave the Demon Court? (Seeking Subscriptions)

As Emperor Wei had anticipated, Chen Yi intended to surround the Heavenly Prison after investigating it, forcing Mr. Yang Huan to reveal the entire plot of the "Pure Abyss".

If luck was on his side, he could use Yang Huan as bait to lure and kill Zhou Guanwu or the Earth Monk.

However, he accounted for the "Pure Abyss" setup inside the Heavenly Prison but failed to foresee the mistake of having Great Master guard Yang Huan.

"A person of loyalty, even when betrayed, can never harden their heart."

Indeed.

In Chen Yi’s eyes, Great Master Lin Zhongke was deeply affectionate and loyal; otherwise, it would be hard to explain why a Confucian Taoist Saint, who had protected Wei Dynasty for three hundred years, would lack patience.

Given the circumstances, Chen Yi would not be indecisive.

The reason he chose this moment to go to the Imperial City was solely to understand the Cultivation Realm of the powerful individuals in Kyoto Prefecture.

Fortunately, the outcome was satisfactory.

With Emperor Wei, Nine Thousand Years, the Great Master, and Huangshan Taoist present, along with the forthcoming Academy Saint and the Grand Void Sect’s elder, it was enough to deal with other powerful individuals outside of the Seventh Realm of Divine Power!

They spent a day touring around.

Chen Yi did not stay out overnight this time like with the little girl before but took them directly back to the Marquis Mansion.

"Brother Yi, mother said that the residence the Holy Emperor granted you has already begun construction, right beside the Imperial City."

After dinner, Lin Xueru recalled and said, "It was originally intended to be the Crown Prince’s palace, but now the Holy Emperor has granted it to you. Several princes have been gossiping about it."

Chen Yi chuckled, unconcerned, "In the future, it will be not just the Marquis Yingwu Mansion, but also our home."

Lin Xueru’s face flushed red, "What Brother Yi says goes."

Looking at the smiling Lin Xueru, Chen Yi suddenly thought of his conversation with Lin Hansong before returning to the mansion.

The undertones of his words suggested that Duchess Xing was eager to see him and Lin Xueru wed.

Thinking this, Chen Yi glanced at the distant Hua Xianzi, and Mr. Ning’s image emerged in his mind, inwardly deciding to wait.

Hua Xianzi, overhearing their conversation, felt an inexplicable pang of sadness and lowered her beautifully yet slightly gloomy face.

Xiao Xuanzhen also caught the hidden meaning in Chen Yi and Lin Xueru’s conversation, turned his head aside, and muttered:

"I’m going to rest, Sister Xue Ru?"

Lin Xueru hurriedly got up from Chen Yi’s side and said, "I, I’ll go rest too."

Chen Yi waved her off with a smile, "Go ahead."

Before leaving the room, Lin Xueru recalled their little secret earlier, not forgetting to use Sound Transmission:

"If Brother Yi leaves Kyoto Prefecture, don’t forget to let me know."

Chen Yi met her gaze, hesitated, and nodded, then gestured Hua Xianzi and Hua Youxiang to rest together.

"Brother, where are you taking us to play tomorrow? How about visiting the ’Sword Cultivation Sacred Land’ outside the mansion?"

Hua Youxiang, as carefree as always, asked with a giggle.

"Er Hua!" Hua Xianzi solemnly said.

Hua Youxiang recoiled slightly, "Got it, sis, let’s go to bed."

Don’t look at how she played around on Sword Edge Mountain; before Hua Xianzi, she dared not act out.

Chen Yi watched the sisters leave, a slight smile on his lips.

Until Lin Xueru and the others returned to their rooms, with bright moonlight outside and quiet indoors, Chen Yi remained in good spirits.

He checked the evening sky outside, casually setting up Slaughter Sword Intent to envelop the room, then quietly sat at the desk.

Soon, Li Qingzhou flashed into the room.

"Did you meet the Great Master?"

Knowing his master would seek him out, Chen Yi was not surprised, calmly nodding:

"The disciple not only met the Great Master, but also Emperor Wei, Nine Thousand Years, and Huangshan Taoist."

"And has already informed them about the ’Pure Abyss’ matter."

Li Qingzhou sat opposite him, thoughtfully asking:

"What was the result?"

"Not good, but not bad," Chen Yi sighed slightly: "With the cultivation levels of the powerful individuals in the Imperial City, they can only withstand four of the ’Pure Abyss’. If anything else changes, it might be overwhelming."

"However, Emperor Wei intends to issue a decree to summon the Academy Saint and... our Grand Void Sect’s elder to guard the capital."

"The elder..." Li Qingzhou slightly nodded, face tinged with gravity, said:

"That one has been in seclusion in the sect for fifty years. Previously, your Uncle Xiao mentioned that the elder is undergoing a life-or-death tribulation to break through to the Sixth Realm of Divine Power; it’s uncertain if he can arrive in time this time."

Chen Yi, noncommittally, said: "If he can come, that’s best; if not, it merely lessens the assurance by ten percent."

Li Qingzhou appraised Chen Yi, then suddenly asked: "You’ve already made your decision?"

"Yes," Chen Yi nodded. Previously concealing from Lin Xueru was to avoid her worry, but there was no need with his master.

"The disciple intends to travel north alone to the Ten Thousand Mountains."

Li Qingzhou’s brow furrowed instantly, a flash of urgency in his eyes: "You intend to go to the Demon Court alone? To investigate or..."

Chen Yi knew revealing the truth would worry his master, but he still firmly said:

"Now the disciple has confirmed the ’Pure Abyss’ plot is for Buddhist merit power, yet when they will come, and what means they have are unknown."

"If we sit and wait in Kyoto Prefecture for them to come, even if we prepare thoroughly, there could still be oversight."

"If a flaw occurs in that battle, the casualties would exceed those at South-Garrison Pass, and it would affect Kyoto Prefecture’s citizens."

Chen Yi paused, looking directly at Li Qingzhou, eyes bright: "I do not fancy myself a soft-hearted person, but I cannot sit by while ’Pure Abyss’ wreaks havoc in Kyoto Prefecture!"

"But if you go alone and something happens, you, you..." Li Qingzhou still wanted to persuade.
