Chapter 3085: The Jade Emperor Heaven

“A disciple from my friend’s clan had committed a crime and escaped. They’re trying to capture him.” Yan Ru Yv had already prepared this excuse beforehand.

“Is that so?” Upon hearing the reason, the young man said agreeably, “Senior Yan, I’ll contact my father at once… I’ll help you deal with this matter.”

“Thank you. If you need my help in the future, don’t hesitate to look for me,” Yan Ru Yv replied.

Upon hearing Yan Ru Yv’s words, the young man’s eyes lit up, and his heart raced in his chest. Before he arrived in the Tao Scholar Profound Sect, he was considered a genius in the Profound Nether Mansion. However, geniuses like him were commonplace in the Tao Scholar Profound Sect. There were many who were much more outstanding than him. As the direct disciple of the Tao Scholar Profound Sect, Yan Ru Yv was, naturally, one of the brightest talents in the sect. Not only was Yan Ru Yv’s innate talent and comprehension skills high, but Yan Ru Yv had a formidable background as well. For these reasons, the young man wanted to forge a good relationship with Yan Ru Yv. Thus, even if Yan Ru Yv’s request was rather difficult, he would try his best to persuade his father to help Yan Ru Yv and his friend. He had promised Yan Ru Yv to obtain permission from the Profound Nether Mansion to examine one of the Transporting Formations in the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories. There was no turning back now.

The young man inhaled deeply to calm himself down before he sent a message to his father, one of the three Vice Mansion Masters of the Profound Nether Mansion.

Li Lin Yi, the young man’s father, replied instantly, “Yan’er, what’s the matter?”

Li Lin Yi had a few sons, but his youngest son was the most gifted among all his sons. Although his son was the youngest, his cultivation base was higher than all his brothers. Moreover, his youngest son was a core disciple in the Tao Scholar Profound Sect, one of the top five sects in the Southern Heaven Territory. In his opinion, it was only a matter of time before his son rose in ranks in the Tao Scholar Profound Sect. When the current Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion retired to return to his clan that ruled over the Profound Nether Mansion, the mansion would inevitably need to select a new mansion master. With his son’s status in the Tao Scholar Profound Sect, at that time, he would have the advantage over the other two vice mansion masters in the selection of the new Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Sect. For all these reasons, he had always doted on and indulged his youngest son while he was strict with his other sons.

“Father…” Li Yan did not beat around the bush and recounted everything Yan Ru Yv had asked of him to his father. He did not fail to mention how Yan Ru Yv was highly regarded in the Tao Scholar Profound Sect and how Yan Ru Yv was the most promising candidate for the position of the Sect Leader of the Tao Scholar Profound Sect!

“The next Sect Leader of the Tao Scholar Profound Sect?” Li Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat when he heard his son’s words.

The Tao Scholar Profound Sect was one of the top five sects in the Southern Heaven Territory. Although it was only a grade higher than the grade-six Profound Nether Mansion, there was a chasm of difference between the two. For example, the clan that ruled over the Profound Nether Mansion was one of the ten major clans in the Southern Heaven Territory. It was a grade-five clan comparable to the Tao Scholar Profound Sect in the Southern Heaven Territory. However, there was a difference between Yan Ru Yv and the current Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion, and the difference was tilted in Yan Ru Yv’s favor.

After all, when the current Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion retired and returned to his clan, he would only be given the position of an inner elder. Although the number of inner elders was not as many as outer elders, the position of an inner elder can only be considered average in the clan. How could an inner elder compare to the Sect Leader of the Tao Scholar Profound Sect even if both forces were grade-five forces?

“This is a bit tricky. If the other two vice mansion masters find out about this, they’ll use it against me in the future… However, to be able to forge a connection with someone like Yan Ru Yv, it’s worth the risk.” Li Lin Yi was quick to reply to his son after weighing the pros and cons in his heart.

Li Lin Yi did not come from an extraordinary background. He had traveled a long and arduous road to rise to his current rank. Therefore, he knew the importance of forging the right connections. Moreover, he knew opportunities like this one was rare. It would be impossible for his son to forge a connection with Yan Ru Yv if it were not for Yan Ru Yv’s request.

“Thank you, father.” Li Yan was slightly surprised by how fast his father agreed to the request. He thought he would need more time to convince his father to agree to Yan Ru Yv’s request.

“Yan’er, tell you senior to have his friend’s family visit me,” Li Lin Yi said.

“Yes, father.” After replying to his father, Li Yan instantly sent a message to Yan Ru Yv.

“Senior Ru Yu, it has been done. My father asks that you ask your friend’s family to visit him in the Profound Nether Mansion. My father’s name is Li Lin Yi, one of the Vice Mansion Masters of the Profound Nether Mansion.”

“Alright, thank you,” Yan Ru Yv replied.

“You’re being too courteous, Senior Yan. It’s an honor to be able to help you,” Li Yan said.

“No matter what, I owe you a huge favor,” Yan Ru Yv replied.

Then, Yan Ru Yv looked at Chen Li who was sitting across from him and smiled faintly. “It’s done. Tell your father to send someone to the Profound Nether Mansion and look for Li Lin Yi. He’s the Vice Mansion Master of the Profound Nether Mansion. At that time, you’ll be able to investigate the Transporting Formation your target had used to travel to the Jade Emperor Heaven.”

Chen Li’s eyes brightened immediately. He wasted no time in sending Chen Yuan Shan, his father, a Communication Celestial Talisman, and informed him about what happened.

Upon hearing Chen Li’s message, Chen Yuan Shan was rather startled that Yan Ru Yv decided to help his son. “That brat must have accumulated many good deeds in his past lives to have a friend like Young Master Yan…”

Yan Ru Yv and his illegitimate son were childhood friends. However, unlike his son, Yan Ru Yv’s high innate talent was discovered at a young age and was recruited to join the Tao Scholar Profound Sect. Yan Ru Yv was even accepted as the direct disciple of the Sect Leader of the Tao Scholar Profound Sect. Even after rising to such high status, Yan Ru Yv did not forget his son and would frequently visit his son. Moreover, unbeknownst to his son, Yan Ru Yv had personally looked for him once and threatened him to treat Chen Li well.

…

The Jade Emperor Heaven was one of the 81 Devata Realms. It was also the Devata Realm closest to Yan Huang Realm, which was where earth, Duan Ling Tian’s hometown, was located in his past life.

Initially, Duan Ling Tian was supposed to ascend to the Jade Emperor Heaven. Due to a spatial turbulence that happened every 10,000 years during his ascension, he ascended to the Spirit Overarching Heaven instead.

In the Jade Emperor Heaven’s Equal Heaven Territory.

In one of Yan Mountain Mansion’s territories, three people were flying in the air as they conversed among themselves.

“It’ll take us half a month to arrive at the Wind Defense City even if we move at full speed… Do we have enough time?”

“We promised to meet in the Wind Defense City two months after arriving in the Jade Emperor Heaven… We have enough time,” one of three people replied.

“We’ve come a long way and spent a huge fortune to travel here from the Spirit Overarching Heaven all because of the secret realm that was left behind by a Celestial Emperor. If I find out that person is lying to us, I definitely won’t let him get away with it!” the third person said solemnly.

The first person who had spoken scoffed and said mockingly, “You won’t let him get away with it? I remember you lost miserably to him when you fought him, right?”

The third person snorted before he retorted, “I was just careless; that’s why I lost. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have lost to him since our cultivation base and the number of profundities we comprehended are the same!”

Based on the trio’s conversation, it was obvious they had also traveled to the Jade Emperor Heaven from the Spirit Overarching Heaven. Clearly, they had also received the invitation from the reincarnated Celestial Emperor. They were also peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials who had comprehended at least two profundities from a law.

The Wind Defense City was the designated meeting place set by the person who told them about the secret realm left behind by a Celestial Emperor.

…

At the same time, two figures were also moving toward the Wind Defense City from another direction.

One of them was a handsome purple-clad young man. His face seemed slightly stern, but his eyes were bright and clear.

Next to the purple-clad young man was a grey-clad young man. He seemed to have a permanently aloof expression on his face. The indifference in his eyes and his frosty aura that could be felt from 1,000 miles away made him seem unapproachable.

The duo was none other than Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun who had traveled here from the Spirit Overarching Heaven.

At this moment, a black dot appeared in the distance.

“That should be the Wind Defense City.”

“We arrived a month earlier than promised… This is good. We can familiarize ourselves with the Wind Defense City and its surroundings and see how many people that reincarnated Celestial Emperor had gathered,” Ling Jue Yun said.

Duan Ling Tian nodded. His anticipation to enter the secret realm where the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit tree was planted had grown greatly over time. Since that person asked them to meet in one of Yan Mountain Mansion’s territories, the secret realm must be located somewhere nearby.
