As the Universe Turns - Chapter 888
Chapter 888 A Cold Night
“Huh?”
Patriarch Guiyin’s face flashed with doubt as he slowly walked down from the stone platform at the front of the hall. He looked at him and said, “Get up, tell me, what’s going on …”
“Yes, yes …”
Tai Yinsi stood up from the ground with a deathly pale face and said bitterly, “This begins a few years ago. A few years ago, outside the Spirit Ruins, there suddenly appeared a power called ‘Lustless Heaven’. The master of Lustless Heaven is Xiao Yichen …”
“Huh?”
Hearing the three words “Xiao Yichen”, Patriarch Guiyin’s expression froze slightly. He looked at him and said, “Although I haven’t been out for many years, I still know a little about the outside world. How did you provoke the people outside?”
Hearing this, Tai Yinsi’s expression became even more bitter as he said in a mournful voice, “Where are the disciples going to provoke them? They are the ones who bullied the disciples …”
“Speak clearly, what’s going on?”
At this moment, Patriarch Guiyin’s expression became even more solemn. Tai Yinsi said bitterly, ‘”I never thought of offending anyone, but Xiao Yichen has gathered around Spiritual Bloodline Force all these years and snatched away Spiritual Bloodline Force from my disciple’s faction. That day, I went outside to find him to argue. I didn’t want him to have such a powerful soul body. Not only did he injure his disciple, he even grabbed one of his disciple’s disciple’s Elders …”
“Continue.”
Patriarch Guiyin’s expression gradually darkened. Tai Yinsi’s face was filled with bitterness. He continued, “Not long ago, I want to go and rescue that Elder. I hope the feud between the two sides will be settled. I don’t want Spiritual Bloodline Force anymore. I don’t want them to be unreasonable. Not only did they not let go, they even killed all the disciples they brought because they relied on Lustless Heaven to have a powerful master. He is one of the Seven Xiao Yichen Masters. No one dares to touch them outside … ”
“En … you continue.”
Patriarch Guiyin’s expression became even gloomier, as if layers of frost had instantly enveloped him. Under the dim candlelight of the hall, it was even more terrifying.
Seeing her master slowly believe her words, she said, Tai Yinsi still had a bitter expression on his face, “they won ‘t let go, This disciple had no other choice but to return to Taiyin Palace. I thought this matter would be settled just like that. At most, this disciple would exchange Spiritual Bloodline Force for someone else in the future. But who would have thought that Xiao Yichen would bully others too much? He relied on his influence outside to be stronger than this disciple, and yet he let another person come to his door, injuring this disciple and injuring him. He even injected five rays of fire into his disciple’s body … ”
“What are you talking about!”
Hearing the five flames, Patriarch Guiyin’s expression suddenly changed. Tai Yinsi’s entire body trembled. He hurriedly rolled up his sleeve and stretched out his wrist, “Master, look, this is the five flames …”
Five traces of fire still appeared on his wrist. This time, Patriarch Guiyin’s expression changed. Tai Yinsi raised his head. He thought that his master would feel sorry for him when he saw this. He didn’t expect that the moment he raised his head, he would receive a fierce slap.
“Pa!”
A crisp applause echoed throughout the dark hall. Tai Yinsi was completely dumbfounded by this slap. He covered his scarlet cheek on the left and blankly said, “Master … What’s wrong …”
Patriarch Guiyin’s expression was frighteningly gloomy as he said in a deep voice, “Who are you to provoke? You have to provoke this person …”
“Disciple … Disciple …” Tai Yinsi’s eyes turned red. “Disciple didn’t provoke him. It was him …”
“Nonsense!”
Patriarch Guiyin pointed, “You didn’t provoke him. He will inject the five accumulations into your body!”
‘”I remembered,” murmured Tai Yinsi, trembling. “He said at that time that he didn’t mind having another puppet if I dared to touch his sister again …”
“That’s the spirit!”
Patriarch Guiyin waved his sleeve and turned to look at the pitch-black night outside. He coldly said, “These five flames are just a warning to you. If he really wants to kill you, you will have already been reduced to ashes by his five accumulations …”
“Ah, ah …”
Tai Yinsi’s face turned pale and his body trembled. This time, he was no longer pretending. He asked in a trembling voice, “Master, then, then who … is he?”
“You don’t even know who you are, yet you dare to provoke me?”
Patriarch Guiyin turned around and looked at him coldly. “Listen carefully, that person is the Second Demon Prince, Wentian!”
“Demon … Demon … Second Prince …”
At this moment, Tai Yinsi seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss. He never thought that he would provoke such a powerful person. His entire body trembled and he crawled to Patriarch Guiyin’s side. He pulled his sleeve and said with a face full of fear, “Master, you must save me … I don’t know … I don’t know who she is …”
“Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking!”
Patriarch Guiyin waved his sleeve and said coldly, “She is the daughter of the Demon Emperor. You dare to even have her idea. You are really bold! The rest of Heavenless Palace is motionless. You are really stupid to charge forward!”
“I, I …”
Tai Yinsi’s face turned pale. He finally thought of something this time, That night, Lian Zhensi came to look for him and told him that the three Grand Daoists had seen a terrifying dream. Perhaps the three Grand Daoists did see a terrifying dream, but the rest of them did not move. He ran out. This time, he really lifted a rock and smashed himself in the foot. No one could blame him. It was only because of greed in his heart …
“Then … then Master, what should I do now …”
Tai Yinsi was so scared that his face turned pale. Patriarch Guiyin concentrated, “You don’t have to be so scared. Although the demons are powerful, the restrictions on the human and demon realms are extremely heavy. Even if they have hundreds of millions of troops, they won’t be able to come to the human realm overnight. As long as you don’t provoke the demon princess, the demons will never come looking for trouble with you again …”
At this point, his gaze was ice-cold. His hands formed seals and pressed down on Tai Yinsi’s left wrist. In a few moments, the five flames in his body were forced out.
Seeing that the gangrene had finally been cleared, Tai Yinsi heaved a sigh of relief and quickly kowtowed, “Thank you, Master …”
“Humph!”
Patriarch Guiyin flicked his sleeves coldly. After a while, Tai Yinsi slowly raised his head. His face was still a little frightened as he said with a trembling voice, “Then … that Xiao Yichen …”
He paused for a moment before standing up, “Otherwise, I’ll stay with Master for a while! Speaking of which, I haven’t returned for a long time. Since I’ve returned this time, why don’t I stay here for a while longer?”
“You really aren’t promising!”
Patriarch Guiyin glared at him, “Now that you are one of the Heavenless Palace of the Seven Halls of Palace Master, if anyone finds out that you don’t even dare to return to Taiyin Palace, do you still want to stay in Spirit Ruins Realm?”
Hearing this, Tai Yinsi’s entire body trembled. Only then did he realize that he was Taiyin Palace Palace Master. If anyone knew that he was so scared that even Taiyin Palace would not dare to return, not to mention that Heavenless Palace no longer had a place for him. Perhaps the entire Spirit Ruins Realm would have no place for him anymore …
“Sigh …”
Patriarch Guiyin let out a long sigh, and his palm illusory. In front of Tai Yinsi, there were immediately three more black talismans. This was clearly not an ordinary talisman, it contained extremely strong magical power.
“Put these three Ghost Talismans on your body. The first Ghost Talisman can summon 100,000 Yin Spirits. The second Ghost Talisman can absorb people’s souls. The third Ghost Talisman is used to save your life.”
Tai Yinsi took the three ghost talismans and said happily, “Thank you, Master!”
“Sigh …”
Patriarch Guiyin still shook his head and sighed, “Remember, the three ghost talismans I gave you were meant to protect yourself in times of crisis, not to cause trouble again. Do you hear me?” “This Xiao Yichen, you must not provoke him again. In a few days, when your cultivation breaks through, you will stand up for him. If you can make peace with him, then from now on, no matter what Heavenless Palace wants to do, you must not provoke him again. Do you understand?”
“Listen clearly! This disciple will never provoke this person again!”
Tai Yinsi kept nodding. Patriarch Guiyin sighed again and shook his hand. “Forget it, you can go back. If people find out that you’re not in Taiyin Palace, they might cause more trouble …”
“Yes … Then, that disciple has left. Master … take care!”
As Tai Yinsi spoke, he went outside. Patriarch Guiyin also went outside. He put his hands behind his back and watched him disappear into the cold night. At this moment, he sighed endlessly.
“Impermanence! Impermanence! Why did you provoke the Xiao Clan? This person is the only bloodline left behind by Xiao Zhufeng back then. Back then, the Xiao Zhufeng incident was extremely complicated and confusing in the entire Spirit Ruins Realm. No one knew the truth and no one was able to avoid it. Fortunately, you were just like those people from the Beigong Clan who didn’t know the heavens and earth. You actually wanted to get involved in this muddy situation …”
“The water in the Heavenless Palace is unfathomable. How can it be as simple as you’ve seen? How can you fight those people? Forget it. This time, I’ll treat it as a calamity for you. Whether you can survive or not depends entirely on your good fortune …”
…
Three days later, Tai Yinsi returned to Taiyin Mountain. As the fire in his body had just been cleared, he was still unable to use his full strength. Tonight, Taiyin Mountain was as cold as ever. The layers of restrictions were also present, but there seemed to be a lot less guards, so it was especially quiet.
“Every time these people take advantage of my absence, they will neglect their duties and teach you a lesson later …”
Tai Yinsi’s gaze was cold and he went straight into Taiyin Palace. Along the way, not even a single guard saw him. Outside the hall, the guards on both sides were standing there like wood. Tai Yinsi was even angrier, “All of you, wake up!”
However, the people on both sides did not react at all. At this moment, Tai Yinsi finally noticed something strange. A profound Yin energy condensed in his palm and carefully walked towards the palace.
The hall was too dark. He could not see clearly from the outside, nor could he feel any aura. When he was inside, he could vaguely see that there was actually a person sitting at the head of the hall, sitting on his chair!
“Tai Yinsi, are you finally back?”
An icy cold voice seemed to come from the abyss. Hearing this cold and familiar voice, Tai Yinsi’s entire body seemed to be covered in a layer of frost. His entire body couldn’t help but tremble, “Xiao … Xiao Yichen!”
