Chapter 745: Couple of the Emperor Dao

Hearing the Divine Master praise her Master, Ancient Fairy was so happy her eyes curved into smiling crescents.

"Now Sister Ruoxue won’t have to worry anymore. All these years, she’s been worried about Master every single moment."

Ancient Fairy said with deep emotion.

"Mm, she is very thoughtful. But your time is coming soon, too. After a little while longer, the Heaven-Reaching Tower will finish synchronizing. It will be very easy to meet him in the True Void Divine Realm through it then. Your Master hasn’t had it easy, either. To make such a name for himself all alone, it’s truly... Even I would have no confidence in achieving what he has in his situation. He’s so brilliantly talented. If I were three thousand years younger, I’d want to pursue him myself."

The Celestial Fox God Master sighed again and again, her admiration for Ye Tianling coming from the bottom of her heart.

Ancient Fairy was incredibly proud, but when she thought of some past conflicts, and what Sumeru Mountain had done to Ye Tianling back then, her heart filled with worry again.

She was worried that Ye Tianling would be upset because of it.

The Celestial Fox God Master possessed an unparalleled Charm. Seeing Ancient Fairy’s expression, her beautiful eyes flashed as she instantly understood her disciple’s worries.

"Don’t worry. With his courage, pride, and Unrestrained and Indulgent nature, he would never care about such trivial matters.

"Besides, the past World was ultimately too narrow-minded, and many things were limited, so it’s normal for a situation like that to have occurred. Now that I’m here, it won’t happen again. Fortunately, we already helped out this time before he made his move.

"Otherwise, we really might have been seen as just sucking up."

The Celestial Fox God Master couldn’t help but smile as she spoke.

With her bright eyes and pearly teeth, she bore a striking resemblance to Ancient Fairy.

It was a beauty that captivated even Ancient Fairy, leaving her dazed for a moment.

"Hee hee, Fairy, keep up the good work. The Sword Tribulation Realm is still just a stage of accumulation. The Ancestor Dao is the true path of the strong.

If you can try to undergo the Hell Celestial Tribulation now, it will be of even greater help to you. If you make good use of the Dao your Master passed down to you, you can definitely withstand the Hell Celestial Tribulation."

The Celestial Fox God Master said with a giggle.

Ancient Fairy immediately nodded, her eyes shining with an otherworldly light. "Master, rest assured. Fairy will definitely trigger the Hell Celestial Tribulation."

The Celestial Fox God Master nodded in satisfaction and said no more.

Afterward, Ancient Fairy left, feeling incredibly happy and cheerful.

Only after Ancient Fairy had left did a deep look of sorrow appear in the Celestial Fox God Master’s eyes.

’Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King, Empress Bai Yin... a couple of the Emperor Dao.’

’Ye Tianling of the Emperor Dao, and the future Fairy Empress... also in a relationship of master and disciple, and perhaps even Dao partners... Is this karma and Reincarnation?’

The Celestial Fox God Master sighed inwardly. Her eyes dimmed, but she quickly gathered her spirits and regained her vigor.

Clearly, she hadn’t seen the flaw by examining the Projection Stone itself; rather, the content displayed on the Projection Stone contained the flaw.

But besides her, it was absolutely impossible for anyone else to spot this flaw.

However, she hadn’t mentioned the love story between the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King and Bai Yin to Ancient Fairy, nor did she mention that the King was constantly searching for a way to resurrect Bai Yin.

The karma involved was, in itself, a tragic debt of emotion.

If Ye Tianling and Ancient Fairy were a continuation of the relationship between the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King and Bai Yin, then it wouldn’t be a bad thing for them to carry on.

And these two wouldn’t need to carry the pain of the previous generation; they just needed to live their lives happily.

The Celestial Fox God Master also believed that with so many factions backing Ye Tianling this time—including this ’threat’ he had orchestrated himself—he would be safe from being targeted or assassinated for a long time.

Perhaps the Celestial Fox Divine Race of Sumeru Mountain and the first-generation Peacock King weren’t enough to intimidate the world, but the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King absolutely was!

And now that Ye Tianling had been ’recognized’ by the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King, the Dragon Race would definitely change their view of him and completely acknowledge his Dragon Race identity.

The title of ’Dragon Race’s First Divine Son’ was as good as his.

Since even the Dragon Race’s true, peerless Emperor Ancestor had acknowledged him, if the younger generation didn’t, it would be an insult to their forefather. This was a crime and a stain on their reputation that the Dragon Race could not bear—and even if they could, they couldn’t afford the consequences!

One could say that for Ye Tianling to create such a ’projection’ by his own skill was in itself an act of unparalleled ability and audacity!

It was unlikely the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King would ever find out, but even if he did, so what?

After all, the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King also had the Unparalleled Celestial Dragon Physique; Ye Tianling was his junior! Why would he punish such a brilliantly talented junior when he’d be too busy looking out for him? Why would he care that Ye Tianling had borrowed his ancestor’s prestige to back himself up?

Furthermore, the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King was known for being free-spirited, heroic, magnanimous, and Unrestrained and Indulgent. How could he possibly care about something like this?

If he found out, he would surely be full of praise and admiration, not censure.

’This Ye Tianling is truly a monster! If only the experience of the Emperor’s Path Thunder Inference King and Empress Bai Yin had gone this smoothly back then... what a wonderful thing that would have been... Sigh.’

At this thought, the Celestial Fox God Master couldn’t help but let out another long, melancholic sigh.

...

「Hidden Dragon Demon Cave.」

After traversing a spatial passage, Ye Tianling finally entered the area.

The familiar atmosphere of the Thousand Shadows Pool, along with that unique Emperor Dao aura, made Ye Tianling feel as if he had returned to the Soul Burial Starry Sky of the past.

A strange feeling of anxious nostalgia, like returning home after a long absence, welled up inside him, causing Ye Tianling to sigh with emotion.

After releasing the projection, but before entering this area, Ye Tianling had already received feedback from Ye Tianyun and Liu Xu’Er.

Just from hearing about the reactions of the many disciples on the War Dragon Academy’s battlefield from Liu Xu’Er and Ye Tianyun, he knew he had succeeded.

However, through the news from Liu Xu’Er and Ye Tianyun, Ye Tianling also learned that the Celestial Secret Divine Land, Ancient Fairy, and the Divine Descendant Ye Clan had all voiced their support. He committed these favors to memory.

He knew, though, that the Divine Descendant Ye Clan’s support was likely the result of his father, Ye Fengyang, and his mother, Long Qingzhuo, having to swallow their pride and compromise.

...

Ye Tianling stood before a giant cliff.

In front of the cliff was an immense waterfall that seemed to cascade down from the highest heavens, a truly mystical sight.

Like the Celestial River descending from the sky, it was shrouded in a vast expanse of mystical white mist, making the scene exceptionally spectacular.

This environment, this style, this aura—it all made Ye Tianling feel pleasant in both body and soul.

The Dragon Soul Divine Blood within his body also seemed to become incredibly active.

’I’ve finally made it into the Hidden Dragon Demon Cave. It really wasn’t easy.’

’And this place... it faintly reminds me of how I felt when I met Feng Chaoge back then. It’s very mysterious. It’s just that the world here feels rather bleak and desolate, and there seems to be a faint aura of the Great Dao’s sorrow between Heaven and Earth.’

Ye Tianling murmured.
