Chapter 352: The World of Great Conflict
Yun Chen looked at their backs as they left, then looked at the gifts piled up like a mountain in front of him, and sighed helplessly.
"Well, there are a lot of things in here that I don't need. Aren't they all yours?"
Zhao Xiruo looked at him and couldn't help laughing.
"This alchemy furnace, I don't know how to make elixirs, and there's also the Thunder Palm, this magical weapon, and the elixir..."
As Zhao Xiruo spoke, she picked out the things she didn't need one by one.
Yun Chen couldn't help but smile at her expression: "I'm just kidding, my wife got so many good things, and so many people are protecting her, I'm so happy, how could I be jealous of you."
Originally, he was worried about Zhao Xiruo's safety.
After all, there are dangers everywhere in this place, and you may lose your life if you are not careful.
But judging from the attitude of the people in the Divine Thunder Palace, they probably won’t do anything to them.
At least nothing will happen to Ruoruo.
Even with the support of the Divine Thunder Palace, no one in the entire secret realm of cultivation dared to touch her.
In this way, he can practice with peace of mind.
"Really?"
Zhao Xiruo raised an eyebrow at him and poked his cheek with her hand: "Just now, someone's face almost fell to his chest, and you still say you're not jealous?"
Yun Chen grabbed her hand and pulled her to his side. He looked down at the smile in her eyes and said helplessly, "Isn't that envy? Look at me, becoming your disciple was just a casual statement. Unlike you, you've gained so many treasures just after becoming your disciple. Haven't you seen the attitude of that woman Lei Miaoyun..."
Although the words were said with dissatisfaction, the tone was full of doting.
Zhao Xiruo leaned on his shoulder, playing with the Thunder Lotus Heart Protecting Jade in her hand, and whispered: "What's mine is yours. No matter how many treasures I have, you are the most important to me."
Yun Chen felt warm in his heart, and he lowered his head to place a light kiss on the top of her head. His voice was so soft that it could squeeze out water: "I know. Having your words is better than any treasure."
He raised his hand and brushed past the pile of gifts, his eyes landing on the secret manual of Thunder Palm. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. "But this Thunder Palm is indeed useful. It will come in handy in the ranking competition. And this Liuyun Pill Furnace. When I have time, I will refine a few more furnaces of pills to help you stabilize your realm."
Zhao Xiruo looked up at him, her eyes sparkling. "Then I'll also hurry up and practice the Divine Thunder Sutra, striving to catch up with you as soon as possible. Then we can return to the secular world together."
"Okay." Yun Chen nodded with a smile, and with a flick of his fingertips, the defensive formation lit up again.
At the same time, Lei Miaoyun and others returned to the master's hall after leaving Yun Chen's bedroom.
"Master, the Xiantian Dao Body has appeared. Should we report this to the ancestor?"
Elder Lei took a step forward, his tone somewhat solemn: "Ancient texts record that the innate Dao body corresponds to a world of great contention. The future of the cultivation world may be turbulent. We must prepare early."
Lei Miaoyun placed his fingers on his brows, and after a moment of silence, he slowly shook his head, "No need. The ancestor has been in seclusion for nearly a hundred years, striving to reach the Spiritual Transformation Stage. He is just one step away, and he must not be disturbed."
She looked up at everyone, her eyes sharp as a knife. "We will suppress this matter for now. We will only tell everyone that the Seven-Colored Divine Lotus was a phenomenon caused by Yun Chen's breakthrough. As for that girl's physique, we must not let anyone know except us, not even our direct disciples."
"But many disciples have seen the vision of the Seven-Colored Divine Lotus."
Elder Liu opened his mouth and spoke.
"If you saw it, then you saw it. Tell everyone that it was the phenomenon caused by Yun Chen's breakthrough. The identity of that girl must be kept secret."
Lei Miaoyun waved his hand, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
"Leave the disciple's side to Xue'er, as for..."
Having said that, Lei Miaoyun looked up into the void, rubbed his brows, and said, "The other sects should spread the news that Yun Chen is in the Divine Thunder Palace."
The news of Yun Chen coming to the Divine Thunder Palace was kept secret, and they even went so far as to spread false information.
The intention was to catch those people off guard in the qualifying round, but now the situation has changed.
The Seven-Colored Divine Lotus made such a loud noise that the old guys from the Taoist sects must have noticed it.
In order not to expose Zhao Xiruo, they had to release Yun Chen's news in advance.
Unfortunately, the old guys already knew that the Hunyuan Pearl was on Yun Chen and that he had triggered the Nine-fold Thunder Tribulation. If the Taoist sect knew that Yun Chen was in the Divine Thunder Palace, it would be quite troublesome.
Thinking of this, Lei Miaoyun couldn't help but rub his brows and said with a bit of helplessness: "Even if spreading the news about Yun Chen will attract the covetousness of other sects, it is better than exposing that girl's innate Taoist body. Even if those old guys want to take advantage of Yun Chen, they have to consider the strength of my Divine Thunder Palace."
Elder Lei frowned and said, "But Yunchen hasn't grown up yet. Pushing him to the forefront right now is too risky. What if those people attack him secretly..."
"Then I am not a vegetarian in the Shenlei Palace." Lei Miaoyun said, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
"What I'm most afraid of now is not their forceful approach, but their bribery, especially from the Taixu Palace. Don't forget that he has connections with the Taixu Palace."
Elder Ouyang sighed and stroked his beard.
Lei Miaoyun tapped the table with his fingertips and said calmly, "Don't worry about that. That girl is Yun Chen's Taoist companion. As long as that girl is in the Divine Thunder Palace, Yun Chen will not leave."
She had noticed before that the two had a deep relationship, and at that time she was even afraid that Zhao Xiruo would influence Yun Chen and let Murong Xue find an opportunity to kill her.
Fortunately, Murong Xue hasn't taken action yet, otherwise the Shenlei Palace would have suffered a great loss.
"That's good."
Elder Ouyang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Alright, everyone, go down. Remember... keep everything that happened today to yourself and don't let anyone know. Also... Xue'er, you go and do what I just said."
Lei Miaoyun waved his hand, and his tone returned to his usual dignity.
Murong Xue stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Yes, Master, I will arrange it right away."
After saying that, he turned and left the headmaster's hall.
After the other elders left one after another, Lei Miaoyun was the only one left in the hall.
She walked to the shelf of ancient books in the hall and stroked a yellowed volume with her fingertips.
It is the secret book that records the origin of the innate Taoist body and the seven-colored divine lotus.
She turned the pages of the book, her eyes fell on the words "The innate Tao is manifested, and the fire of catastrophe burns the universe", and her brows furrowed.
The fire of catastrophe burns the universe!
"A time of great contention also means disaster. I hope...what happened thousands of years ago won't happen again."
Lei Miaoyun sighed, walked to the window, and looked at the mountain gate shrouded in clouds in the distance. His eyes were deep and unfathomable, and no one knew what he was thinking.
At this moment, a disciple's voice suddenly sounded outside the door.
"Master, there are people from Taixu Palace outside the gate who want to see you. They say they have news to report."
"Taixu Palace?"
Lei Miaoyun's eyes darkened slightly, he raised his eyebrows, and waved his hand, saying, "Let him in."
