Chapter 562: I've Seen It
Gu Heng's presence gave Qin Yiyao the greatest confidence.
If it weren't for not wanting to trouble him, she could easily return to the desolate city right now and have a tearful plea to her master, saying that the damned Gu Yun who wanted to kill her back then still wants to kill her now, begging her master to save her, otherwise, it would be difficult for her disciple to fulfill her duty of respecting her master...
It all depends on whether Gu Heng will storm into the Little Xuantian Realm on the spot, tear off the head of that Ancient Fallen Immortal Venerable, and display it in the courtyard as a decorative piece.
Master will definitely go to this lengths for her.
But Qin Yiyao preferred to settle her own scores herself. Calling for help wasn't out of the question, but it wasn't about directly confronting the heavens. As for a mere Immortal Venerable, Qin Yiyao felt she wasn't that far from that level, so why call for help? Perhaps in three or four years, she would be able to handle this matter perfectly!
So, don't panic, don't panic.
Of course, Qin Yiyao didn't intend to tell Yunshang about the existence of her good master. It would just be useless for another person to know about the master's existence out of thin air.
However, Qin Yiyao had absolutely no trust in Yunshang, and even her good intentions were questionable.
After all, Gu Yun and a group of immortals from the "Little Xuantian Realm" all wanted to kill her. Yunshang was an exception among them. They wouldn't kill her, but they would try to win her over and make her work for them. However, such words could not make her lower her guard and be wary. She had seen too much of the coldness and ugliness of the world in her previous life.
We've all stumbled along the way, one pitfall after another.
at most.
Qin Yiyao felt that when she went to the Little Xuantian Realm in the future, Yunshang could be spared, but the other immortal venerables would be killed!
That's all. "...It seems you have someone backing you up?"
Yunshang looked at Qin Yiyao's expression. Although it remained calm and composed, even knowing that she was facing a threat from the Immortal Venerable, it already spoke volumes.
A mere mortal cultivator.
How could she not show the slightest wavering when she heard that a Celestial Venerable wanted her dead?
No matter how resilient and strong someone is, they'll eventually feel a little regretful or helpless about this gap that's so vast it's almost insurmountable.
If even the threat of a Celestial Venerable is within reach, they are not afraid.
Yunshang felt there were only two possibilities.
First, the Holy Yao Emperor, who somehow escaped death last time, suddenly suffered a mental breakdown after learning the truth and started talking nonsense... After all, this news was too heavy for even her to accept.
If you can't accept it, it will break.
Second, she already has a powerful backer, a powerful backer who gives her a great sense of security and makes her not worry about the threat from the Immortal Venerable!
But this kind of powerful backer... logically, should be Yunshang!
Where in the Xuan Tian Realm could Qin Yiyao possibly find a powerful backer capable of resisting a Celestial Venerable?
Look around this Xuan Tian Realm, where are the immortals? These are all immortals from the Lesser Xuan Tian Realm!
They all come from outside; there's no way there could be any immortals here. If there were, the illusory immortal realm would have known long ago.
However, the Xuan Tian Realm is a place where the path to immortality is cut off. Not to mention that it is impossible for anyone to ascend to immortality again, the process of ascending to immortality would cause strange phenomena in the heavens and earth, and it would be impossible to escape their eyes!
Unless, of course, the unusual phenomena of heaven and earth have been concealed or dispelled.
But this is simply nonsense.
Such extraordinary phenomena of heaven and earth could never be hidden, much less be dispelled; they were the heavens' "congratulations on the mortal body's ascension to immortality," a blessing from the heavens!
Having lived for so long, even Yunshang had never heard of anyone ascending to immortality without causing any extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth.
In the Lesser Mystic Heaven Realm, for so many epochs, whenever someone ascends to immortality, the Heavenly Dao will surely send down extraordinary phenomena to "celebrate and congratulate" them.
Unless one is a being comparable to the heavens, how could one possibly defy the extraordinary phenomena of the heavens?
Such a thing couldn't possibly exist.
Therefore, Yunshang really didn't understand where Qin Yiyao's confidence came from. Even if she really had a powerful backer, that backer probably wasn't reliable.
"What you think doesn't matter, but Gu Yun poses no threat to me, and sooner or later I will take the initiative to go find him." Qin Yiyao was not afraid at all in the face of Yunshang's questioning.
"Ah……"
well.
His words are so clear and calm; he's definitely not crazy.
That's the second possibility—she has a powerful backer protecting her, making her feel that everything is fine.
But will everything really be fine?
Yunshang scoffed: "No matter who your backer is, don't forget that you're facing a Celestial Venerable!"
"If Gu Yun is determined to destroy you, given his personality, even at the risk of being annihilated by the Heavenly Dao, he will charge into this world at his peak, find you, and kill you!"
"Since you're so confident in that backer, why don't you go ask him if he dares to go against the Immortal Venerable..."
“He wouldn’t dare!” Qin Yiyao said decisively.
This resolute decision startled Yunshang, and she was inexplicably even more surprised.
Are you so certain?
Who exactly is that powerful backer?
How could it possibly win over the proud and arrogant Emperor Shengyao, to the point of blind faith?
Before Yunshang could speak, Qin Yiyao continued, "After saying so much, I understand why you've come."
"But how I should live in this life is something I ask Immortal Venerable Yunshang not to interfere with."
That's all for this.
Yunshang pondered for a moment.
Then he nodded slightly and slowly uttered, "Then so be it."
Although Yunshang was actually quite dissatisfied with this trip, since she hadn't achieved her goal.
If Yunshang had suffered a setback at the hands of someone of equal strength like Gu Yun, she could have simply gritted her teeth and swallowed her anger. But to find that even a mere mortal cultivator could reject her in such a way truly made Yunshang feel as if she were in a dream.
Gu Yun's strength is undeniable, but Yun Shang is now more interested in Qin Yiyao's "backer." If they were to truly face Gu Yun, he would be more than capable of protecting Qin Yiyao and ensuring her safety without any mishaps...
Yunshang absolutely must meet this person.
Even if it's just for the sake of seeing what it looks like, it can satisfy one's curiosity.
The strong are always drawn to the strong.
Yunshang didn't say anything more and left directly. There was no point in trying to persuade her anymore, as it would only make her, a half-step immortal, look even more inferior.
There's no need to sacrifice something as dignified as a Celestial Venerable just to cherish talent.
So much talk wasted. Yunshang's desire to win over Emperor Shengyao had long since been worn down.
What she cares about more now is not the Holy Yao Emperor, but the existence that makes the Holy Yao Emperor feel so at ease!
……
I watched Yunshang leave.
Qin Yiyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is a Celestial Venerable, and one who has deliberately suppressed his cultivation level, yet he still exudes this kind of oppressive aura..."
She was covered in cold sweat, and her hands, which were gripping the flagpole of the Taiming Emperor's flag, were now slippery with sweat.
Although the other party had no intention of using their power to intimidate, even if the aura of an immortal was only unintentionally released, it would still exert unimaginable pressure on a mortal cultivator!
Rao is so.
He barely managed to withstand it only by relying on the aura of the divine treasure of the Taiming Emperor Banner.
This is what immortals are like.
This is the new realm she was willing to give everything to pursue in her past life!
And now.
For the first time, Qin Yiyao witnessed firsthand the immense power that an unassuming immortal should possess!
Unlike the almost worldly charm of her master, Yunshang exudes a unique "sense of separation" that belongs solely to immortals. This sense of separation is so powerful that it is fundamentally different from that of mortal cultivators.
Her eyes were filled with passion.
What couldn't be accomplished back then, must be accomplished in this life!
