Chapter 899: Chapter 402: Palace Master Mingyue/Mingyue

He almost overlooked it.

This wasn’t detected by divine sense, but by powerful intuition.

Although it seemed this aura was secretly helping the Sword Servant, he couldn’t help but feel tense inside.

"No need for misunderstandings, fellow Daoist."

At this moment, a figure slowly emerged from within the valley.

To avoid being recognized by Lin Chang’an and others, this Great Palace Master of the Ming Moon showed a calm demeanor and removed her disguise, revealing her true face.

A young girl slowly walked out, with rosy lips and white teeth, looking exceptionally beautiful. Though she exuded a youthful aura, it was clear she had extraordinary potential.

However, she emanated an aura of aloofness and superiority, distinctly different from her youthful appearance.

"So, she is also a cultivator in the Core Formation Late Stage!"

Seeing the newcomer, Lin Chang’an discreetly let out a sigh of relief. Her appearance was not surprising to him.

Within the Immortal Cultivation Realm, there are countless Cultivation Techniques and Exotic Fruits that allow cultivators to maintain youthful appearances, or even regain youth, which isn’t difficult.

He was initially worried about a hidden Nascent Soul Cultivator, but seeing the girl emerge, he relaxed somewhat.

She likely had a treasure that concealed her aura.

With her calm demeanor, she wasn’t afraid of being recognized, as she often wore a golden mask in the Demon Beast Abyss.

Only a few people in Bihai Palace knew her true face.

They had met before in the Secret Realm, but back then, she used a fake appearance as well.

"Your divine sense is impressive, fellow Daoist. It’s probably not far from a Nascent Soul Cultivator."

The young girl glanced at the jade pendant at her waist, which was shimmering with Spiritual Light, clearly indicating it was a treasure for concealing aura.

"You’re impressive as well, fellow Daoist."

Even though the other was also in the Core Formation Late Stage, Lin Chang’an dared not underestimate her.

To remain so composed in such a situation, and even secretly assist the Sword Servant, clearly demonstrated confidence in her own strength.

Though he easily eliminated the two cultivators and the demon serpent earlier,

it was actually his momentum that first disheartened them.

The demon serpent was simply up against a nemesis, which was the key to its defeat.

If either the two cultivators or the demon serpent had the will to resist, it wouldn’t have been so easy to eliminate them.

However, this person witnessed him slaying these two, and Lin Chang’an’s mind flickered with numerous thoughts.

At that moment, a powerful divine sense swept over, bringing a smile to his face.

"Thank you for your assistance, fellow Daoist. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been easy for me to slay these two Tribulation Cultivators."

Lin Chang’an laughed heartily. The other’s release of divine sense was clearly a display, showing that their strength wasn’t weak either.

Damn, their divine sense wasn’t much weaker than his.

He had just used Nascent Soul Realm divine sense to crush cultivators in the same rank, only to meet someone who was no less equipped.

Was today just not his lucky day?

As for his words, they were meant to pull the other into his scheme.

In the end, in killing these two, the other absolutely had a share; they’d bear the burden together.

Lin Chang’an’s appearance amused the young girl, though she found it somewhat shameless.

However, through releasing her divine sense at its root opening, she discovered that he had used some Secret Technique or treasure to detect her.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have thought she was merely on par, with divine sense barely reaching the Nascent Soul Realm.

Originally, she didn’t plan to get involved, but upon seeing the Golden Flame Divine Phoenix, she changed her mind.

It’s a pity, though, that such a Spirit Beast had already formed a bloodline bond with him. To scheme for the demonic essence, more planning was needed.

The Golden Flame Divine Phoenix is undoubtedly the best spiritual object for exploring the Demon Abyss and seeking out that demonic essence. It appears somewhat weak now, needing to advance to the fourth rank before being capable of participation.

In a split second, numerous thoughts flashed through their minds.

In the next moment, both of their faces revealed smiles.

Lin Chang’an was pulling the other into his waters, while the other sought to get Lin Chang’an on board; both parties felt inclined towards forming an alliance.

"Observing your Yin Cold Cultivation Technique, you must be the renowned Mr. Xiao, I assume, who must have acquired part of Yin Soul Sect’s legacy in the Ghostly Abyss of Demon Beast Abyss."

The young girl smiled calmly, cupping her hands to round out his lie.

The ice lotus cold flames, along with the Golden Flame Divine Phoenix, were worth befriending first.

Lin Chang’an was stunned that she even mentioned the excuse he had prepared in case someone probed his Cultivation Technique later on.

After all, most techniques from the Yin Soul Sect are of the Yin Cold variety, and with his flame targeting the Divine Soul, it’s quite akin to divine techniques based on Yin fire.

Therefore, he naturally needed a plausible cover, and the Yin Soul Sect was quite fitting.

"There’s no misunderstanding, fellow Daoist. I’m also from the Demon Beast Abyss, just a few decades earlier than you."

At this juncture, the young girl added with indifference, cupping her hands, "I am surnamed Ming, given name Yue."

Ming Yue?

Is there such a surname?

"I didn’t expect Mr. Ming to also hail from the Demon Beast Abyss; it’s truly a pleasure to meet a fellow abroad."

Lin Chang’an laughed heartily, cupping his hands in friendship.

In this moment, both sides seemed to feel a great rapport, like old friends upon meeting.

However, during their conversation, Lin Chang’an probed subtly and nodded discreetly.

This person had a profound understanding of the Demon Beast Abyss, especially some local customs of certain sea regions, which was not something easily faked.

It seemed she indeed came from the Demon Beast Abyss, as not just anyone had the kind of opportunity he had to come through a teleportation array.

With peak Core Formation Late Stage cultivation and powerful divine sense, she must be here seeking that Nascent Soul opportunity.
