Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor-Chapter 4681: Azure Emperor
Chapter 4681: Azure Emperor
After sharing some spiritual tea and engaging in conversation for a while, they rose to depart. Abruptly, one of them halted, turned back, and glanced at the other three, remarking, “Come to think of it, we haven’t heard much about the Azure Emperor of Yunxiao Mountain lately, have we?”
“He has never been amicable towards us, so we don’t pay him much attention. Why bring him up so suddenly?” another inquired.
“I simply have the feeling that we haven’t seen him in a long time. He didn’t even attend the banquet hosted by the Great Emperor of the South Sea last year.”
“The Azure Emperor has always considered himself exceptional and never associates with us. Furthermore, I heard that his beloved disciple failed to survive his tribulation and was reduced to ashes. I doubt he would readily venture out and about.”
“Although we have never formally engaged in combat, I have consistently heard from those outside our circle that the Azure Emperor is the most powerful of all the great emperors, especially after emerging from seclusion a few years ago; his strength has significantly increased.” One person’s face grew serious as he exhaled lightly and said, “But fortunately, this individual does not concern himself with the affairs of others and invariably acts alone, which is advantageous, as he will not interfere with our plans.”
The others nodded in agreement and exited without uttering another word.
Indeed, Azure Emperor’s strength was immeasurable, yet he was also a person who paid no heed to the outside world. Since he would not interfere with them, they naturally would not dedicate excessive attention to him.
At present, their primary concern remained dealing with Feng Jiu. The titles of Phoenix Star and Sovereign of the World presented a considerable threat to their authority.
The individual they feared had already arrived at the base of Sky Mountain aboard an airship.
Feng Jiu gazed at the snow-white expanse of Sky Mountain and addressed Du Fan and the others, “Wait for me here; I’ll go take a look.” With that, she disembarked from the airship, gathered her spiritual energy, and ascended towards the mountain peak.
However, to her astonishment, as she entered the territory of Sky Mountain and attempted to climb, she found herself unable to proceed. Observing the barrier that materialized before her upon contact, her eyes flickered, and she halted in her tracks.
Only then did she realize that the entire Sky Mountain was encased within a barrier. The potent barrier shielded Sky Mountain like an invisible dome. She stared at it blankly, lost in thought for a moment.
Was it Old Man Tianji’s demise that triggered the activation of the barrier around Sky Mountain? Or was it something else entirely? Was Mo Chen still on Sky Mountain? Or had he already ascended to immortality?
Questions flooded her mind, yet she did not attempt to forcefully breach the barrier. Instead, she paused briefly, then turned and walked back towards the airship.
Shortly after Feng Jiu’s departure, Du Fan and the others also noticed the barrier that had enveloped Sky Mountain. Just as they were expressing their surprise, they saw their master returning. freёweɓnovel.com
“Master, are we unable to go up?” Du Fan inquired.
Feng Jiu shook her head and replied, “A barrier has been erected. I presume they don’t want anyone ascending.”
Upon hearing this, the group exchanged concerned glances. Finally, Leng Hua asked, “Master, where should we proceed next?”
Feng Jiu looked towards the sky, pondered for a moment, and then said, “You all should return! I, on the other hand, am going to find a secluded place to cultivate. You guys investigate and see if you can locate Mo Ze. If you obtain any news, inform me.”
Seeing her resolve, the others didn’t press further, simply saying, “Alright, we will depart tomorrow.” They understood that perhaps this time, their parting might extend for several years before they saw each other again.
