CHAPTER 2003 THE CELESTIAL'S ARRIVAL SHOCKS THE IMMORTALS
The time passed quick, and the tenseness of the Morning Glory Clan increased. The closer the time for the guest to arrive came, the more stressed the people were. Guang San and Feng Lan were doing their best to ensure that there would be no issues, and Lin Mu assured them that it would go well. From what the Saintess had told him, the Ever Spring Mistress only cared about having a disciple and wouldn't mind anything other than that. Even if they were to meet her in a crumbling mud hut, she still wouldn't care. With how long she had searched for a disciple, it was nothing. The inception of this chapter's publication is linked to N(Ov3l.B1n.
She had scoured mortal worlds, and looked through dilapidated slums in the search for a suitable disciple, but everything had been for a naught. After all those years, she was finally getting her wish fulfilled and could now meet Meihua, whom she had been waiting for.
Soon enough, the time finally arrived, and every person in the Morning Glory Clan felt it.
But the one who felt it first was none other than Lin Mu.
~SHUA~
His senses alarmed him, as he felt a very strong spatial fluctuation in the Rust Sky World. Even though it was happening thousands of kilometers from where he was, Lin Mu could still feel it as if it was right next to him. His eyes snapped in the direction of the Capital City of the Dao Wind Empire, where a teleportation array had just opened up.
'This is definitely not the normal cross world teleportation array… With the spatial energy being used in this, it's clear that the distance covered was massive.' Lin Mu analyzed it.
~HONG~
The spatial fluctuations only lasted for a few seconds before a massive wave of Qi spread. It started from the capital city and covered the entire Rust Sky World!
All the top experts in the Rust Sky felt it and were alarmed.
"Another Celestial!?" In the Grand Palace of the Holy Topaz Dynasty, the emperor stood up from his throne and gazed in the direction of the Dao Wind Empire. "Just what's happening there now?" He furrowed his brows.
He hadn't forgotten the great trouble they had gone through just a year ago, and the fear he had felt was still fresh in his mind. The Holy Topaz Emperor didn't know if this was the same celestial or not, but since they were arriving in the Dao Wind Empire again, he couldn't help but think they were related.
The same happened in the Huiqing Continent as the Huiqing Emperor rushed to the sky and looked in the direction of the Dao Wind Continent. But unlike the Holy Topaz Emperor, he directly took out a communication jade slip and contacted the Emperor of the Dao Wind Empire.
"Old Feng… What's happening now?" The Huiqing Emperor questioned.
"A Celestial… has arrived… Unannounced." Emperor Feng answered, shock clear in his voice.
"Unannounced!? Did the Temple not say anything? Are they not doing anything!?" The Huiqing Emperor asked in a frantic voice. Content © 2024.
"They… They are the ones who opened the array… The array is directly coming from the Central Immortal Court." Emperor Feng replied while flying to check just who was it that had arrived.
"Wait!? The temple themselves opened it?" Huiqing Emperor was stunned. "It can't be… it isn't an Imperator, is it?" Just the idea of it shook the man in his core.
Imperators were the punisher of the Immortal Court and were possibly one of their stronger members. But if an Imperator was a celestial, it didn't mean that they had come from the Immortal court, but rather celestial court!
The arrival of an Imperator was never good for any world. "I can only hope… it is not an Imperator." Emperor Feng stated, feeling overwhelmed.
His empire had already lost face and gone through several troublesome issues a year ago. He didn't want more to happen.
'I thought the Temple said it is fine now that we've paid for the mistakes of Feng Baxing. Why is an Imperator coming now?' Emperor Feng thought to himself.
He flew at his full speed and soon reached the grand teleportation array of the Capital City.
In the center of the lake stood the open array that was currently shining brightly. A vague silhouette could be seen there, and a massive amount of Qi was radiating off it.
The array was surrounded by several formation masters of the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts. It even included, High Elder Juxue, who was standing there with a serious expression.
The Emperor noticed this and approached him.
"Uncle… who's coming?" Emperor Feng used his familial connection. "It isn't… An Imperator is it?" He asked carefully.
~Sigh~
"If only it was an Imperator." High Elder Juxue let out a sigh which only made the emperor feel worse.
"If not an Imperator, then…" Emperor Feng furrowed his brows.
"At least an Imperator would act within the scope of the court's protocol. The one who has arrived is a favored celestial of the Celestial Court… the Immortal court can't do much to them. They also have the privilege of going to any immortal world as they wish." High Elder Juxue stated. "All this were to happen just when the Temple head is not here… ~Sigh~ let's just hope this celestial is better." The old man rubbed his face.
Emperor Feng swallowed his saliva and looked at the silhouette that was getting clearer by the second. In order for the Immortal world to endure the presence of the Celestial, the expert would have to suppress several of their aspects. This was also why their appearance took some time and why only a silhouette could be seen.
The Celestial was still adapting to the restriction of the Rust Sky World.
~SHUA~
And sure enough, a few more seconds later, the strong waves of Qi disappeared and the silhouette become clear.
~HUALA~
And when it did, a warm presence radiated from the person who had just appeared.
