Chapter 68

  "Congratulations to Holy Lord for finally mastering the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique!" Nie Xiaoqian's words just confirmed Jing Wuyuan's speculation, and the aura he had just sensed was indeed correct. With a smile on his face, Jing Wuyuan congratulated Mojun Qiye.

  Jing Wuyuan's reason for rushing over in such a hurry was none other than the astonishing sword energy that had just been emitted from Mojun Qiye's bedroom not long ago, which he had discovered while cultivating on the back mountain.

  That one sword aura today, Mirror Without Edge had seen it before when he was still the master of the Demon King's Six Paths in the Yin Moon Imperial Court; that year, the Demon King's Six Paths, who was over thirty years old, finally succeeded in cultivating the ultimate skill of the Yin Moon Imperial Court - the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique!

  That shocking sword aura still makes Mirror Wuyuan sigh to this day, as the teacher of Mojun Qiye, the wise man of the Yin Yue Imperial Court; no matter what identity Mirror Wuyuan is in, it has been destined that Mirror Wuyuan will be a subject of the Yin Yue Imperial Court for his entire life.

  The stronger the Demon King of the Yin Moon Dynasty, the more prestigious the position of the Yin Moon Dynasty in this world; all things in this world are under the constraint of laws, and as a wise man, Mirror Wuyuan can know; or see many ordinary people who do not know things, such as the Heavenly Way; or these laws...

  There's a saying that doesn't sound very pleasant, but it makes a lot of sense; the person with the biggest fist is the boss, and only when faced with absolute strength do all plots and schemes become paper tigers.

  Why can the Yin Moon Empire only be at ease in a corner? Why, among humans, demons and monsters, are the demon tribe always ranked last? In short, it's all about who has the bigger fist that gets to decide.

  The human world has a Cloud Brook Mountain, the demon tribe has a Mysterious Yin Territory; only the Yin Moon Imperial Court has nothing?

  Now, the young master of his own family has cultivated the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique, giving Mirror Without a glimmer of hope. It's worth noting that the Demon King Six Paths was fifteen or sixteen years later than the Demon King Seven Nights in cultivating the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique; even so, it still stirred up a bloody storm in the mortal world, from which we can see that once this technique is truly mastered, it will be incredibly heaven-defying.

  "Right!"

  Nie Xiaoqian also stood by, saying to the demon king Qīyè with a smile like a flower: "Brother Qiye, you're really amazing! I, Xiaoqian, truly admire Brother Qiye!"

  However, facing the congratulations from Ni Xiaoqian in front of the mirror, Mo Jun Qi's face did not show a hint of joy. At this moment, all of Mo Jun Qi's attention was focused on Lin Ruolan.

  Not long ago, the heart-wrenching feeling of Mo Jun's seventh night was still fresh in his memory. He was worried that he had only endured it quietly because of 'Yue Hou', and the pain had almost become unbearable; it was imaginable how much Lin Ruolan must have suffered at that time.

  "Lan'er, are you alright? What exactly happened to you?" Mojun's hand involuntarily stroked his chest, where the scorching sensation brought by 'Moon Later' had not completely dissipated.

  "Seventh Night Brother, Xiang is talking to you; why don't you even respond?" Nie Xiaoqian didn't wait for Mojun Seventh Night's response and couldn't help but slightly furrow her brow; pouting with a hint of anger.

  "Xiao Qian, you go back with Wu Yuan first; Qi Ye has something for me to take care of at the Huanbo Pool!" Mo Jun Qi Ye interrupted Nie Xiaoqian's words and stood up, striding out of the demon palace.

  Before getting the news of Lin Ruolan's true safety, Mo Junyi couldn't rest assured for seven nights.

  The Mirage Pool is a faith-like existence for all people in the Yin Moon Dynasty. It is said that as long as the supreme magic power is used to open it, everything one wants to see can be seen inside the Mirage Pool.

  Uh... Of course! But this premise must be that you have a fate with Huanbo Pool.

  Some people also say that the Phantom Pool can see a person's past and present lives; however, no matter what kind of statement it is, for the people of the Yin Yue Dynasty, they are just legends; because so far, not a single person has really entered the Phantom Pool, including Mo Jun, the Holy Lord of the Yin Yue Dynasty.

  It's likely that the only person who has ever entered the Phantom Wave Pool in the entire Yin Yue Dynasty is Empress Dowager Yin Yue. Because the last token to seal the Phantom Wave Pool is in her hands, without that token, even if Mo Jun Qi Ye was the Holy Emperor of the Yin Yue Dynasty, he would not be able to enter the pool.

  "Holy Lord, are you going to the Ripple Pool?" Jing Wuyuan's face changed suddenly when he heard Mojun Qiye's words: "But this Ripple Pool has been sealed for many years, and the token that can open the seal has always been in the hands of Princess Yinyue; I'm afraid..."

  Jing Yuanyuan hadn't finished speaking, but he believed that Mo Jun Qi Ye should be able to understand his meaning; everyone in the Yin Yue Imperial Court knew that Mo Jun Qi Ye and Empress Dowager Yin Yue were biological mother and son; however, they were also the most bizarre and incompatible mother-son pair in this world.

  At first, the people of Yin Yue Imperial Court couldn't understand why Empress Dowager Yin Yue was treating Mo Jun Qi Ye like that; everyone knew how much in love Mo Jun Liu Dao and Empress Dowager Yin Yue were back then.

  But what no one expected was that in the battle of Honghe Village back then, Mo Jun Liu Dao's soul returned to heaven and earth, and Yin Yue Tai Hou was also seriously injured. Logically speaking, for Mo Jun Liu Dao's only flesh and blood, Mo Jun Qi Ye, Yin Yue Tai Hou should have been even more loving and affectionate towards him.

  It's just that this fact often goes beyond people's expectations, and Queen Yin Yue is surprisingly indifferent to the relationship between her son Mo Jun and Mo Qi Ye; Queen Yin Yue only has one sentence for Mo Qi Ye every day - Revenge!

  The people of the Yin Moon Empire initially did not quite understand the actions of Empress Dowager Yin Moon, but as time passed day by day; everyone gradually became accustomed to it and attributed all this to Empress Dowager Yin Moon's drastic change in mind due to the departure of Mo Jun Liu Dao.

  When he was young, Mo Jun Ye Qī Yè had fantasies about his mother, hoping that Yin Yue Tai Hou could be like other people's mothers; hugging him or praising him. However, in the end, what he got was always disappointment, and it seemed that only when he worked hard to practice did he get a few words of praise from Yin Yue Tai Hou.

  Time passed day by day, and slowly Mo Jun began to stop fantasizing about warmth that didn't belong to him; because he knew that in the end, the only things accompanying him would be the coldness and loneliness of his room in the demon palace. Every day, he practiced his skills again and again, just so he could get a little more attention from the Empress of the Underworld.

  Nie Xiaoqian nodded in agreement with Jing Wuyuan's words: "Seventh Brother, don't go to the Fantasy Pool, okay?" Nie Xiaoqian tightly grasped the sleeve of Mojun Seventh Night, her beautiful eyes filled with worry: "The Empress Dowager... she won't hand over the token to Seventh Brother."

  Probably in the entire Yin Yue Imperial Court, only Nie Xiaoqian would dare to say such words so openly; although everyone in the Yin Yue Imperial Court knows that Empress Dowager Yin Yue doesn't get along with her own Holy Lord, but knowing is one thing, there's no one who would actually say it.

  Uh... but it seems that the first person to dare try eating crab has appeared, and isn't this what Nie Xiaoqian said, something that even Mo Jun Ye himself didn't want to admit?

  Mo Jun Qi Ye's expression turned gloomy, he knew that Nie Xiaoqian was right; however, before confirming what had happened to Lin Ruolan, Mo Jun Qi Ye's heart remained restless and uneasy.

  "Xiao Qian, even if your mother doesn't want to see you for seven nights, brother; but how can this matter be tried by your seven-night brother?" Mo Jun Qi Ye's mind was already made up and he wouldn't easily give up because of Nie Xiaoqian's words.

  "No way!"

  Nie Xiaoqian showed off her spoiled nature, taking two quick steps forward; both hands spread out in front of Mo Jun Ye's face, saying without any politeness: "Seventh Brother, I won't just watch as you suffer injustice."

  Jing hesitated for a moment before finally asking the question that had been on his mind: "Your Majesty, why are you so insistent on going to the Huanbo Pool? Is there something very important that can't be resolved unless you go to the Huanbo Pool?"

  Although Mojun Qiye was not very old, as his teacher, Jing Wuyuan had always known how hardworking and diligent he was. It was rare for the young Mojun Qiye to be so persistent, which is why Jing Wuyuan's heart had doubts.

  "No matter what, this thing is really important to Ben Sheng Jun; anyway, I have to go to the Queen Mother's place for a trip." Mo Jun Qi Ye had his own persistence, but he didn't tell Jing Wu Yuan what he was persisting for.

  Jing Wuyuan saw the persistence in Mojun Qiye's eyes and knew he couldn't stop him, nor could he change his mind. So Jing Wuyuan decided to accompany Mojun Qiye on this journey instead.

  "If Your Majesty is determined to go through this ordeal before giving up, then I'll accompany you to Empress Jiang's place!" Jing Wuyuan smiled faintly at Demon King Qiye.

  "Unfated teacher, you..." Mo Jun Qi's eyes widened slightly, and his heart felt like something was sprouting; he didn't know what to say at all.

  "Teacher Wu Yuan, why are you also joining in on the nonsense with Qi Ye Ge?" Nie Xiaoqian stomped her foot in indignation and couldn't help but glare at Jing Wu Yuan fiercely; wasn't this just adding to the chaos?

  Jing Wu's eyes met Nie Xiaoqian's warm and gentle smile: "Xiaoqian, do you think that just because of your relationship with me, you can stop your Seventh Brother?"

  Jing Wu Yuan's words left Nian Xiaoqian stunned, right! How could she have forgotten that Seventh Night Brother had always been a very determined person; let alone when it came to herself and Jing Wu Yuan, once the Demon King Seventh Night really made up his mind to do something; Nian Xiaoqian absolutely believed that even if the Yin Yue Empress intervened, she wouldn't be able to easily change the Demon King's mind.

  Although Mo Jun Ye Qi was a very obedient good son, this does not mean that he must listen to Yin Yue Tai Hou's words and follow her plans.

  Nie Xiaoqian's bright eyes spun around, and she immediately changed her mind: "Alright, Seventh Brother, if you really want to go find Yin Yue Tai Hou, then you must bring Xiao Qian along. Otherwise, none of us will go."

  Nie Xiaoqian actually came up with the same idea as Jing Wuyuan, wanting to go and must bring her along; in short, Nie Xiaoqian simply relied on Mo Jun Qiye for seven nights.

  The Demon King's Seven Nights left him feeling moved, but also somewhat tearfully amused; he had only gone to see his mother, yet somehow it seemed like everyone thought he was going to meet a demon who devoured humans without spitting out their bones.
