Chapter 2281 - 2281 Deceived
2281 Deceived
However, this pause was only for a moment. He quickly returned to normal and entered the house. “Master, Your Highness.”
Seeing Cen Yi enter, Chu Liuyue nodded slightly.
“Maybe that First Deity is busy with something else,” Rong Xiu lightly said. “The Second Deity’s status is second only to his. It’s not strange for him to be personally in charge of this matter.”
“I’m just curious.” Chu Liuyue tapped her fingers lightly on the armrest of the chair. “They seem to want Tuan Zi to open her meridian as soon as possible.”
Previously, in the Red Moon Desert, the owner of the eye clearly had such thoughts. It even tried its best to catch Tuan Zi and forcefully open her meridian.!!
This time, although Second Deity Yu Qian didn’t use such cruel methods… From a certain perspective, he still threatened and tempted her and Tuan Zi.
Fortunately, the contract between her and Tuan Zi had already changed. Otherwise, she really didn’t know how to get through this stage.
Chu Liuyue also had her own plans.
There was another very important reason why she was willing to take advantage of the situation for one’s own benefit. If Tuan Zi could open the seventh meridian, there was hope of saving Yi Zhao.
Although Phoenix Mountain had been burned down, it was still a cultivation holy land for red-gold heavenly phoenixes, especially Tuan Zi.
She had the same pure bloodline as her ancestor and held the Ancestral Golden Feather in her hand. It was obvious that her cultivation speed would greatly increase on Phoenix Mountain.
“Liuyue!” At this moment, Mu Hongyu rushed in from outside. “Liuyue, you’re back!”
Chu Liuyue retracted her thoughts and looked up. When she saw Mu Hongyu’s agitated expression, she couldn’t help but ask, “Hongyu, what’s wrong?”
Mu Hongyu ran over and coughed when she saw that Rong Xiu and Cen Yi were in the room. “I have something to tell you,”
Chu Liuyue nodded. “Just say it.”
Rong Xiu and Cen Yi were the people she trusted the most.
Mu Hongyu hesitated for a moment and nodded. She walked closer and said softly, “Liuyue, there seems to be something wrong with the ocean outside Fantasy Divine Palace.”
Chu Liuyue’s heart skipped a beat, and she glanced at Cen Yi.
Cen Yi nodded his head and walked over to close the door. He then raised his hand and set up a barrier to isolate all sound.
Following that, Chu Liuyue asked, “What did you find?”
Mu Hongyu’s hands were in a mess, and she was a little conflicted. “I think… Master might be under that ocean.”
Chu Liuyue’s gaze flickered slightly. “How can you tell? Did you sense something?”
Mu Hongyu sighed and explained, “I… Actually, when I came the other day, I felt that there was something strange about that ocean, but I didn’t take it to heart at that time. I’ve been constantly thinking about it these past few days and finally sensed something amiss. Liuyue, the spatial power under that sea area is complicated. It’s very similar to Master’s work!”
Chu Liuyue was dazed. The reason why I guessed that Diwu Zhangze was imprisoned under that ocean was that I heard a faint groan of pain when I left last time. That voice was definitely Diwu Zhangze; I couldn’t have heard wrongly.
“You can sense the change in spatial power below?”
Mu Hongyu nodded and gestured with her hand. “That’s right. Under normal circumstances, the spatial power in an ordinary ocean shouldn’t be much different. But when we passed over the ocean that day, I realized that there seemed to be several forces intersecting with each other below. It was extremely chaotic. Later on, I thought about it and realized that it was indeed a mark that Master specially left behind. Apart from him, I don’t know anyone else who could do such a thing.”
She frowned nervously. “But this is only my guess. Whether it’s true or not, I have to go down and see for myself. I just feel a little uneasy, so I came over to tell you first—”
“There’s no need to guess. This should be true,” Chu Liuyue interrupted her softly.
Then, she briefly explained what had happened. “…Initially, I only suspected it. But if even you said so, then this matter is close to the mark, not far off.”
The room fell into a short silence.
Mu Hongyu finally came back to her senses. “But… who did Master offend to be locked under that ocean?”
Anyone who had been to that ocean knew what kind of shocking and ferocious power was hidden in the surging waves! Once a true god expert fell into it, they would be reduced to ashes in less than a few seconds; they wouldn’t even have time to struggle for help.
Even if Diwu Zhangze was stronger, he would definitely suffer inhumane torture if he was imprisoned there.
Chu Liuyue didn’t say a word. She had the same question in her heart.
Not only Diwu Zhangze but also Dugu Mobao and Lan Xiao. The three of them were first trapped in the Red Moon Desert and hadn’t seen the sun for more than 10,000 years. Then, they were brought here and locked up.
She had her guesses. Dugu Mobao and the other two must have some relationship with Fantasy Divine Palace, or rather, Fantasy Divine Hall. For some reason, they were punished like this.
However, she didn’t have any more clues and evidence now, so she naturally couldn’t speculate casually.
Mu Hongyu suddenly held her hand and whispered, “Liuyue, I want to take a look at that ocean area.”
Chu Liuyue frowned. “Now?”
Mu Hongyu nodded.
“But you’re only a true god now. If you go down rashly, I’m afraid—”
“Master left a space under the sea. I can go over,” Mu Hongyu said.
Chu Liuyue’s eyes brightened up. “Really?”
Mu Hongyu nodded. “So the only trouble now is that it’s probably a little difficult to leave the Heaven Gate…”
The Heaven Gate guards of Fantasy Divine Palace were very strict. It was almost impossible to leave silently.
Chu Liuyue thought for a moment before saying, “It’s actually not difficult to get out. What’s difficult is… How can we not be discovered?”
Since Diwu Zhangze was imprisoned there, there must be someone guarding him in the dark.
Rong Xiu suddenly said, “If your Faint Yuan body breaks through again, you can hide it from the world.”
