The two opened their eyes at the same time and looked at each other. Blood dripped from the corner of Bo Changzhi's mouth, but there was a smile on his face.
Qin Hao was shocked and his heartbeat accelerated. The Dao Ancestor could reverse Yin and Yang and understand the universe, but he could even see through the faith of the Divine Path?
The Divine Path was a realm that was not tolerated. The Divine Wilderness was like a continent abandoned by the gods with a vicious curse. For thousands of years, other than the Martial Monarch, no one had crossed the line of the Emperor's Path and controlled the power of the Divine Path.
And the key to becoming a god was faith.
Qin Hao could not imagine that the mystery of the Seven Peaks that trapped the Divine Palace and the faith of the Nirvana Great Emperor would be seen through by the Dao Ancestor.
The fortune-teller was really heaven-defying.
"Senior …" Bo Changzhi waved his hand and interrupted Qin Hao, "I know and I don't know. If you want to find the answer, why don't you ask your heart?"
"Ask my heart?"
Qin Hao looked down at his chest and felt his heartbeat. What was the connection between faith and the heart?
Bo Changzhi closed his eyes again. Obviously, he would not tell him the real answer. The fortune-teller could see the Great Dao but was still bound by the Heavenly Dao.
If he did not, he would be punished by the heavens.
Qin Hao let out a long breath. The Dao Ancestor used the power of fortune-teller to see it once and caused the will of the Emperor to weaken. If he revealed the secrets of the heavens, he would definitely be punished. He said, "I will remember."
Getting up, Qin Hao cupped his hands and walked out of the hall, thinking about the Dao Ancestor's words. If you want to know faith, why don't you ask your heart?
It seemed that he had to rely on himself to improve the power of the laws.
"The Divine Palace's Shuiyao suddenly came to invite the Tribulation Sword Emperor to the Divine Palace for a talk. Did I disturb the Dao Ancestor?"
As soon as he stepped out of the hall, a bright imperial carriage descended from the void. It was pulled by eight white divine deer and stopped above the Mountain of Dao.
"Empress Shuiyao?"
Qin Hao was slightly surprised. He looked up at the carriage pulled by eight divine deer. Obviously, it was the Empress Shuiyao's carriage that came specially to pick him up.
But, why was she looking for him?
Dao Mountain had a Dao Ancestor. No matter how one looked at it, Empress Shui Yao should have gone to the Dao Ancestor first.
"Fellow Daoist, you're too kind. I'm not disturbing you. Li Chuji is here. Why don't you ask for his opinion? It just so happens that he has nothing to do, so I don't think he'll refuse."
The Dao Ancestor's hearty laughter came from the hall.
Qin Hao turned around and looked into the hall. How was he supposed to respond to this?
The Dao Ancestor's ability to seize lives was extraordinary. He was also good at human trafficking.
"Haha, if that's the case, I'd like to invite Tribulation Sword Emperor to board the Shui Yao carriage and come to the Saint Palace."
The Empress Shui Yao's laughter echoed in the air. After receiving permission, the eight deers pulled the imperial chariot down and stopped in front of Qin Hao. Then, the curtains of the imperial chariot opened slightly, but there was no one inside.
"Plant voice transmission."
Qin Hao secretly praised the Empress Shui Yao. Then, he stepped onto the chariot. After sitting down, the eight deers raised their heads and cried in unison, releasing eight balls of dazzling golden Emperor's Light. As cracks appeared in the space, the deers pulled the chariot and disappeared, disappearing thousands of miles away in an instant.
"That's the Empress Shui Yao's chariot."
Zhan Bieqiu and the others were alarmed. They all flew over, but before they could take a closer look, the chariot disappeared with Qin Hao.
"Why is the Empress Shui Yao looking for Chu San?"
Shi Yongnian looked at the people around him, but no one could answer him.
It had been nearly three years since the battle on Dao Mountain. If it was about the Hantian Clan, the Empress Shui Yao would have come long ago. This time, she must have come to see Qin Hao for something else.
"A new epoch is about to arrive."
The Dao Ancestor stepped out of the hall and looked in the direction of the Saint Palace. He seemed to have predicted something.
Everyone trembled at the same time. A new era?
Did the Dao Ancestor mean that the moment Li Chuji stepped onto the Empress Shui Yao's chariot, it would impact the era of the Setting Sun Battle God in the East Continent?
No one could understand the true meaning of the Dao Ancestor's words, but everyone knew that since the Dao Ancestor dared to say that, there would be a storm in the East Continent.
The deers' chariot was extremely fast. The eight beast emperors took turns tearing through the space. They didn't slack off at all. In just one day, Qin Hao arrived at the Saint City from Dao Mountain, which was under the Empress Shui Yao's rule.
The Saint Palace was located in the Saint City.
The Saint City was naturally prosperous. There were jade palaces everywhere. It couldn't be compared to the Imperial City built by the Xuanyuan Clan in the Southern Region.
The difference was that there were almost no men on the streets. They were all women, and all of them were as beautiful as fairies. As the saying went, it was a paradise that all men dreamed of.
The chariot landed directly at the Saint Palace in the center of the Saint City. There were no unnecessary movements. The Empress Shui Yao didn't give Qin Hao any time to admire the Saint City. After arriving at the Saint Palace, Qian Ning appeared directly in front of the chariot.
"Quick, something big has happened."
When Qian Ning saw Qin Hao, her expression was very serious. She almost dragged him to the Empress Shui Yao's bedroom. Along the way, they attracted the attention of many fairies from the Saint Palace. They couldn't imagine why Qian Ning would drag a man in. They were holding hands. That was too much.
"What is it? Aiya, men and women shouldn't touch each other. I am a married man. How improper."
Qin Hao knew that Qian Ning only treated him as a friend. However, he didn't want to be under the watchful eyes of so many fairies from the Saint Palace. Of course, although he objected verbally, he didn't shake off Qian Ning's hand. The Saint Palace was huge, and he was unfamiliar with the place. It would be bad if he got lost. There were women everywhere.
"The East Continent is changing. This time, it's really going to be chaotic. Before you meet my master, you should be mentally prepared."
Qian Ning didn't have the time to avoid the taboo. She grabbed Qin Hao and ran anxiously. It was as if she was bringing him to meet her elders.
Very soon, the two of them arrived at an extremely sacred hall under Qian Ning's forceful tug. The doors of the hall were several dozen meters tall, and were carved with flowers and the image of an empress symbolizing women's rights. There were many guards standing around, and without exception, all of them were women. The women in armor stood upright, and their figures were extremely fit and beautiful. Their handsome faces radiated a heroic spirit, and they were all peak emperor realm cultivators.
"What a group of terrifying women."
Qin Hao thought.
The inside of the palace was even more exaggerated. More than ten elders from the Saint Palace were lined up on both sides. Old Man Taihua was among them. They were no strangers to Qin Hao, but none of them greeted him. He walked along the long corridor until Qian Ning dragged him to a misty sacred pool deep in the palace.
Immediately, the fragrance of the flowers filled the air. The fresh fragrance mixed with the fragrance of the woman's body assailed his nostrils. Through the luxurious gauze curtain, he could vaguely see an endlessly graceful fairy sitting in the pool. He could only see a slender jade arm gently fiddling with the water. Sparkling and translucent water droplets dripped down the white lotus-like arm, creating a crisp sound of playing with water.
It was truly a beautiful scene of a fairy bathing in water.
There was no man in the world who wouldn't be moved by this scene. After all, the woman in the pool was the current master of the Saint Palace, Empress Shui Yao, who supported an empire.
"What are you doing?"
Qin Hao was absent-minded for a moment, but he quickly regained his senses. He hugged his clothes tightly and cried out in shock. Why was he suddenly dragged into Empress Shui Yao's bathing pool to watch her bathe?
Or did they have other intentions?
