Since she had already decided to take Zhou Yun as her disciple, City Lord Gu did not dawdle any longer. She clapped her hands, and the entire floating palace emitted a faint buzzing sound.
The floating palace that was originally the main building of the city was originally the strongest fortress in Zenith City with the most arrays. Even if it was bombarded by enemies as powerful as City Lord Gu for three days and three nights, it would not tremble at all.
But now, the floating palace was trembling and buzzing.
All of this was because City Lord Gu inserted her token into her seat. With that, an even more dazzling golden light with a hint of divinity descended.
Zhou Yun looked at everything in front of him in a daze. He was not shocked. Instead, he felt that everything in front of him was very familiar as if he had seen it before!
The unique golden light that carried divinity gave him such a sense of familiarity that his body almost subconsciously went to it.
If not for the fact that he still maintained a bit of rationality, Zhou Yun might have charged into the golden light under City Lord Guts shocked gaze.
“The golden light of the Divine Gate is the true foundation of the Divine Gate. Even the guardian sacred beasts of the five camps can’t disobey the will of the golden light, because it is the true relic of that existence that has disappeared for a long time.”
Seeing that something was off with Zhou Yun, City Lord Gu explained.
“Now, I’m going to use the authority as the city lord to have this golden light search among all living beings in the nine Heavens, five Underworlds, three
Continents, and four Seas. I believe that unless that person named Xin Yu is a God reincarnate, she will definitely be found by the golden light,” City Lord Gu said confidently.
Then, she played with the golden light in her hand as if she was playing with space mud. Soon, she kneaded the golden light into a ball.
“Are you and that Qiao’er bound by a Heart Fetter? If yes, then put your hand in.” The Ancient City Master asked Zhou Yun as she placed the golden ball in
front of him.
“Heart Fetter?” Zhou Yun murmured. He suddenly understood what this meant and reached out his hand to the golden ball. In terms of his relationship with Qiao’er, it was definitely a kind of fetter!
“If we only know the name, the golden light of the Divine Gate can deduce that person’s location. If we add the fetter, perhaps the golden light can project that person’s location,” City Lord Gu revealed why she had asked Zhou Yun to put his hand into the golden light.
As she spoke, her eyes moved slightly, “Of course, the prerequisite is that the person called Qiao’er is still alive.”
Zhou Yun’s outstretched hand paused slightly, and he immediately extended it into the golden light without hesitation. He did not think that Qiao’er would die so easily!
It felt like a pudding. After his hand reached into the golden light, the sense of familiarity in his heart became even more obvious!
It was as if he had done this many times before. However, Zhou Yun was even more puzzled. He had come out of the furnace and had always stayed in that small world. He had never even seen the real world. How could he feel familiar with the golden light of the Holy Land’s Divine Gate?
Moreover, this was a golden light with divinity that could only be mobilized by a city lord. Zhou Yun did not think that he knew the golden light!
“Hmm? Why is it like this?” City Lord Gu let out a startled voice. She looked at the golden light and her pupils were slightly dazed.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen? Is Qiao’er alright?” When Zhou Yun saw City Lord Gu like this, he was very worried and could not help but ask her.
City Lord Gu stared blankly at the results provided by the golden light. It was only after a long while that she came back to her senses under Zhou Yun’s constant calling.
“City Lord Gu, what’s going on? Where is Qiao’er? Is she still alive?” Zhou Yun asked City Lord Gu once again. When he saw her absent-minded appearance, his heart was burning with anxiety!
“I misspoke. I didn’t expect that after living for more than 130,000 years, I would actually make a slip of the tongue one day,” City Lord Gu said in disbelief. She spread out the golden ball and Zhou Yun quickly looked over.
“As I said before, there are only two outcomes if the golden light of the Divine Gate can’t find her. One is that Qiao’er is dead and no longer exists in this world. Secondly, Qiao’er has been possessed and is no longer herself. However, I have to take back my absolute words. This is because the golden light is now showing the third result.”
City Lord Gu looked at the golden ball in bewilderment. She did not expect such an outcome!
“What exactly is it? What happened to Qiao’er?” Zhou Yun looked at the golden ball, but he couldn’t see anything at all. He could only continue to ask City Lord
“Qiao’er is currently not within the range of the golden light. In other words, she didn’t die, or perhaps the possessor brought her to a place that even the golden light can’t detect,” The more City Lord Gu spoke, the more serious her expression became.
“A place that even the golden light can’t detect! ” Zhou Yun suddenly thought of City Lord Gu’s words. Could it be…
“That’s right, it’s the Immortal World, the place where the real Immortals and Gods live,” City Lord Gu continued, “However, since the mysterious disappearance of the head of the Divine Gate in ancient times, no one in the nine Heavens, five Netherworlds, three Continents and four Seas has had the right to ascend to the Immortal World again. Even after countless years, it remains the same.”
“So there’s only one possibility that Qiao’er wasn’t detected by the golden light.”
City Lord Gu took a deep breath before she looked at Zhou Yun seriously. It was as if this was the first time she saw him as she looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze.
“Qiao’er is currentlv in the Divine Gate, and she’s not in the outer sect, the
inner sect, or the 108-circle cities and the 36-rotation cities. Her current position is even higher than this. For the past thousand years, no disciple has been able to step foot there.” As City Lord Gu spoke, she looked toward the sky.
Zhou Yun also followed her gaze and looked toward the sky.
Beyond the golden light that enveloped the sky, there seemed to be golden eggs stacked on top of each other. They were cities with a population of more than hundreds of millions. They looked like eggs as they were engulfed in golden light. The cities were stacked to form the pyramid-like Divine Gate!
And at the top of Zenith City… was the land guarded by the sacred beasts of the five camps.
“That’s right, I overlooked this point earlier. If Qiao’er is really in the guarded land of the sacred beasts of the five camps, even with my city lord’s authority, the golden light won’t be able to find her location,” City Lord Gu said slowly.
“Ever since the ancient ruler disappeared, the five sacred beasts have not appeared for a long time. Even the higher-ups rarely come into contact with them.”
As City Lord Gu spoke, she was also very curious. Why could Qiao’er go to the guarded land of the five sacred beasts that even she could not go to?
She sized up Zhou Yun once again. She kept feeling that something was amiss. Perhaps she could find some clues from Zhou Yun regarding the incident with the missing disciple this time..
