Chapter 16 The Story of a Young Taoist Priest
In the dimly lit world, the imperial palace seemed silent in the depths of the palaces. The far-reaching roofs looked like the roc’s extended wings, and the glazed tiles in the rain were glittering peacefully.
The floor-to-ceiling lanterns in the palace were all lit, and the young emperor was standing by the golden pillar carved with the pattern of the dragon, looking at the rain.
He recalled the scene of the blue-and-white sedan chair entering the palace just now. He was the emperor of the state but the woman in the sedan didn’t even get out of the sedan to greet him. She just left for the depths of the palace as if not seeing him.
Fortunately, those officials either lowered their heads or bent down. Supposedly, no one saw him appear so embarrassed.
He sighed. At the thought of the vague figure through the white curtain of the sedan, his heart just flipped. Although he didn’t actually see her face, somehow, he had a feeling that h

In the dark attic, holding a copper wand which was about half a meter long and fully carved with inscriptions, Song Ce scurried across the murky corridor of the imperial palace.When he took the wand, the emperor ordered the others to retreat, so this place was still quiet.As he didn’t have the imperial blood, his palm had turned red and swollen due to the burning of the wand. However, Song Ce still held it tightly with an indifferently calm face.At the thought of the emperor’s shocked and flurried expression, he couldn’t help grinning.“As the emperor for over ten years, he has learned nothing but some shallow techniques of imperial calculation.”The corner of his mouth curled up coldly. Everything went quite well, so it did save him the trouble of unnecessary killings.He walked towards the rear of the imperial palace according to the route he had planned numerous times.After walking for

Not a single drop of rain could fall into Lake Qifeng.The large area of the lake had been covered with thick ice. The floating steam in the air all turned into falling snow and hail.The masked woman of the Oracle Sword Heavenly Sect supported herself with the sword, standing on the surface of the lake. Beneath the mask, there was blood dripping down.She raised her head.In the air, the bloody figure of the evil fox was surrounding the old man while the wizard patriarch was struggling with difficulty while holding the seemingly burning ancient book.The woman wiped the blood off her chin with the back of her hand. As she breathed, the surface of the ice under her feet suddenly cracked. She jumped up, turned into a gust of sword Qi and slashed at the bloody figure.Clang.The woman’s sword reached nothing but it seemed to hit something, making a sound of clang.The old fox said,
Beyond the Divine States Chapter 19 The Woman in White Enters the City
Thunder crashed above Lake Qifeng.The old fox in control of the wizard patriarch’s body vanished in situ within an instant.The woman in white, who turned into a streak of sword Qi and fled, was intercepted in the sky instantly. The sound of the sword and the claw colliding with each other rang violently, causing a series of dazzling sparks in the air.The woman hedged. The long sword danced around her body, glistening brightly and protecting her from the invading evil Qi.The “wizard patriarch” stopped in the air before her but the body’s aura had completely changed. The eyes that had gone as white as the dead fish’s eyes were dark now, just like two abysses. As long as one looked at the eyes, he would be bewitched.The woman in white stuck to her sword mind and did her best not to look the old man in the eye.She could feel that the old fox before her had become much stronger than before.W
Beyond the Divine States Chapter 20 Come Around
Holding an umbrella, Ning Changjiu closed the gate of the yard, bolted it and looked at that woman in white lying on the ground.With the sleeves torn off, the woman was stained with blood. The sword wounds in her white arms were striking. She was lying prostrate on the ground. Her white clothes spread out like a bird’s open wings.The woman’s back was also stained with blood and her dampened clothes were sticky and cold, closely clinging to her wounds. Under her body, there was also blood constantly seeping. As the rain dispersed, the surrounding ground was stained with blood shortly.The woman was not dead. Although she was seriously injured in a coma, she still gave off a kind of inaccessible sword Qi.Ning Xiaoling also came over in a hurry with an umbrella. As the pungent smell of blood came on her face, she hastened to cover her mouth and nose. Looking at the woman on the ground in horror, she looked at Ning Changjiu in confu

The woman finally noticed that behind the curtain, a young man and a young woman wearing the Taoist robe were sitting there, both of whom were about 15 or 16 years old. They still looked somewhat childish.Ning Xiaoling who was in a trance suddenly became spirited and then gasped in admiration, “What an immortal cultivator! You’ve recovered so fast after being so seriously injured.”Ning Changjiu looked at the woman’s vigilant eyes and explained, “We found you unconscious in the yard before. My fellow disciple and I carried you inside. I boiled the water and bought the medicine while she helped apply the medicine to your wounds and bind them up for you. Don’t worry about it.”He talked unhurriedly with unquestionable calmness.The woman tried to sit up but the pain of being torn apart just siphoned away her strength bit by bit, pressing her back on the bed.She looked at the young man and young girl seriously, saying,

The woman hesitated for a while and finally spoke slowly, “My name is Lu Jiajia. Jia means marrying someone.”Lu Jiajia...What a weird name! And…it was a bit cute?Slightly dazed, Ning Xiaoling could hardly connect the name with this cold and aloof sword immortal for the moment.The woman proclaimed as Lu Jiajia heaved a sigh and said resignedly, “I was thin and small when I was a child. My mother was worried that no one would marry me when I grew up, so she named me Jiajia, hoping to bring me luck.”Ning Changjiu said with a smile, “It seems that Miss Lu fails your mother’s goodwill.”Lu Jiajia knew that he was complimenting her on her appearance. After staying silent for a moment, she said, “Since I’ve started cultivating, I should be fully devoted to Taoism. It is allowed in the sect that one can have a Taoist partner, but I have no interest in it.”Ning Xiaoling asked, “Do you have to iso
Beyond the Divine States Chapter 23 The Bleak Autumn Rain
Outside the imperial palace, above the clouds, the battle lasted very long.The dark clouds and livid fogs in the sky were all shattered, exposing a part of the blue sky. The sky took on a new look, just like the continuous lakes on the dry land after the heavy rain.As beams of light shone through the clouds, just like the swords that cut off the universe, got together gradually, forming a vast expanse of blue sky.The city was half rainy and half sunny.At the edge where they converged, streaks of rain were brightly shone, dropping on the ground, constituting a beautiful scene.The clouds blocked the vision. In the thunder that rumbled from time to time, the people on the city wall looked up in awe, imagining the stunning battle behind the clouds.The intermittent chirping sound of the phoenix was far away, but it was still horridly astonishing.In their eyes, that was the war between gods,

It had been nearly four hours since the old fox entered the imperial city and the battle in the imperial palace ended.In the evening, Lu Jiajia stopped regulating her breath. When she got off the bed, the rain gradually became smaller. The wooden window was shone with the faint twilight.The battle above the imperial palace lasted very long. Even the ordinary people in the imperial palace could all notice the anomaly of the sky and the earth. She had a deeper feeling.Ning Xiaoling fetched a basin of hot water for her. Looking at Lu Jiajia’s face which had gradually regained some color, she said in astonishment, “You’ve recovered really fast from such serious injuries. Your physical condition is unbelievably amazing.”Lu Jiajia said, “For a cultivator, the physique is his sword, which is surely unusually tough.”Ning Xiaoling nodded with only a hazy notion.Lu Jiajia asked, “Where is your fellow disciple?
