As the Universe Turns - Chapter 267
Chapter 267 Re-encounter Lady Rakshasa
“What’s wrong with you?”
Seeing that he was suddenly lost in thought, Hua Weiyang asked.
“It’s fine.”
Xiao Chen slowly regained his senses. No matter what, this Heavenly Gate was not as calm as it seemed. Chu Tianyao’s identity was definitely not trivial. As for who the person in Xuanqing Sect was, he believed that one day he would find out.
“You’re thinking about what happened back then, aren’t you?” Hua Weiyang continued to ask.
Xiao Chen shook his head and stared at the Fengman Attic that was shrouded in the darkness. “There is always only one truth, and the closer you get to the truth, the more often it will be an illusion to confuse people.”
Hua Weiyang looked at him quietly. It was only now that she realized that this person in front of her was no longer the Xuanqing Disciple who had rampaged around. She smiled softly and said, “You’re right. Now, I’ll accompany you to find out the truth behind this illusion.”
“Wei Yang …”
Xiao Chen suddenly turned around and looked at her. “This time, the enemy we have to face may be very strong, so strong that … we can’t imagine it.”
“Don’t worry.”
Hua Weiyang smiled softly and suddenly seemed to be relaxed. “If that person really has the ability to cover the sky with one hand, there’s no need to lay it out in secret. Let’s go.”
“Mm …”
Xiao Chen nodded slightly and disappeared into the night with her.
Tonight, Fengman Attic was still singing and dancing as usual. However, under the thick fragrance of rouge, there was often an invisible killing intent.
“Mountain rain is coming …”
Just like last time, two more black-clothed men stopped him downstairs. However, at this moment, a woman’s voice came from the building, “Don’t be rude to distinguished guests.”
The two men in black obviously didn’t recognize Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang, but when they heard the woman’s voice behind them, they immediately moved aside and cupped their hands. “Lord Yaoji,” they said.
A graceful figure walked out of the building with a bright smile on his face. It was Lady Rakshasa’s subordinate, Fengman Attic, who was the leader of the twelve concubines of Yaoji.
“Childe Xiao, long time no see. The building master is already waiting in the pavilion. Please.”
Yaoji walked over slowly and waved her hand. She was naturally very familiar with Xiao Chen. However, Xiao Chen did not say anything in advance when he returned. However, it seemed that Lady Rakshasa already knew that he had returned.
Followed Yaoji to a complicated pavilion room in the building. The fragrance pervaded the room. Behind the screen was a beautiful couch. There was a person sitting on the couch. Even though there was a layer of hazy veil covering the couch, it could not conceal that person’s peerless appearance. It was precisely the owner of the Fengman Attic building, Lady Rakshasa.
“As expected of Lady Rakshasa. Before someone like Xiao arrived, Lou Zhou had already heard the sound.”
Xiao Chen said indifferently. He wasn’t as polite as he had been when he first arrived. He then sat down on a chair. Only then did Lady Rakshasa appear from behind the light curtain. He walked out slowly and smiled, “It’s been more than a year since we last met. Childe Xiao’s current cultivation is already at the peak of perfection. It seems that he has found Daoist Lonely Lamp and reformed his Nascent Soul.”
“Not only did I find Senior Lonely Lamp.”
As Xiao Chen spoke, he looked at Hua Weiyang again. “Wei Yang, this is the building master of Fengman Attic. It was under the guidance of the building master that I went to the Ancient Realm Heavenly Pagoda to find Senior Lonely Lamp.”
Hua Weiyang smiled and said, “Lord Fengman Attic, long time no see.”
“Oh? This is …”
Lady Rakshasa’s gaze narrowed slightly. Seeing the extraordinary aura of this woman in front of him, he felt relieved. He smiled and said, “Everyone knows that Palace Master Lian Hua is an old man over a hundred years old. I never thought that she would be such a beautiful woman who looks like a Celestial Immortal. It’s a pleasure to meet you.” At the end of his sentence, he cupped his hands.
“Palace Master Lianhua …”
When Yaoji heard this, her heart couldn’t help but tremble. No wonder she was surprised. If it was in Immortal North Ancient Realm, no one would know what Lianhua Palace was, but how could the people of Xianyuan Five Realms not know? Recently, Xianyuan Five Realms had been stirred up into turmoil and was able to contend against a few great devil sects. How could its owner be an ordinary person?
In the eyes of the leaders of the Xianyuan Five Realms Devil Dao, Hua Weiyang’s status was definitely not ordinary. Let’s talk about the three forces in Dingfeng City. Even the people from the Devil Heaven Sect of Xiaoyao Tower had to be courteous when they saw her.
As for the Righteous path, people naturally wanted to execute her and could not tolerate her, just like there were no more demons. Back then, in the Xuanqing Sect, everyone had only guessed her identity. If it was confirmed that she was the master of Lianhua Palace, then the outcome would be even more unpredictable.
Even though Ding Feng City had never interacted with Xianyuan Five Realms Zheng Mo, nor had it interacted with the battle between the two sides, Lady Rakshasa still did not dare to neglect Lianhua Palace’s master.
Hua Weiyang smiled gently and said, “Before meeting the landlord, I never thought that the Rakshasa Lady would be such a peerless beauty.”
The Rakshasa Lady smiled and said, “A small building filled with wind, how dare you compare to Lianhua Palace?” After saying that, he turned to Xiao Chen and asked, “I wonder why Young Master Xiao is here this time?”
Seeing that the two of them had finally finished being polite, Xiao Chen said, “I’m here to find Senior Chu. Is he here?”
“Senior Chu …”
The Rakshasa Lady pondered for a moment and smiled, “Senior Chu has always been a divine dragon that never sees the end. He has come and gone without a trace. Young Master Xiao’s arrival this time is a bit unlucky. Senior Chu just left last month.”
“Did you leave last month …”
The room suddenly fell into silence. Not long after, Hua Weiyang stood up from his chair. Xiao Chen saw her get up and asked, “Weiyang, is there anything wrong?”
“No, I’m going out for a while. I’ll be back in a bit.” Hua Weiyang shook his head, looked at Lady Rakshasa again, and then turned to go outside.
After a while, Xiao Chen saw her return. Seeing that she had been gone for so long, it seemed that something was wrong. He asked, “What’s wrong?”
“No…”
Hua Weiyang smiled. It seemed that it was because Lady Rakshasa was present at the moment, so it was not convenient to say something. However, Lady Rakshasa seemed to have seen through something. He smiled and said, “Recently, I heard that a lot of things have happened in Lianhua Palace. However, Palace Master Wei Yang is not in Xianyuan Five Realms.”
Hua Weiyang smiled faintly, “It’s just a small matter. My subordinates will handle it.”
“That’s right. Look at me …”
Lady Rakshasa patted his forehead and smiled, “There are countless experts in the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm in Lianhua Palace. How could they be like me? I have to personally do all the trivial and important things.”
“It’s getting late today. If Young Master Xiao and Palace Master Wei Yang don’t dislike me, why don’t we rest in the Wind Mansion for a night before we leave?”
Originally, Xiao Chen had planned to travel a long distance across the Desert of Death. He naturally planned to rest for two days before leaving, but now, he saw that Hua Weiyang suddenly had something urgent to do …
Before he could say anything, Hua Weiyang smiled and said, “Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble the landlord.”
