Chapter 1869: Chapter 1559: Palace Master, Did You Already Know That Chen Lu Is Lu Chen?

After returning with the Mysterious Moon Palace’s army, the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate immediately visited the Yun Meng Hall. At that moment, all the Immortal Venerates from the Mysterious Moon Palace were already gathered in Yun Meng Hall.

The Immortal Venerates seemed to be discussing something, but as soon as they saw the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate enter the hall, the murmurs ceased abruptly, and all eyes turned to the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate.

Upon her return, the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate was naturally expected to report the happenings of the Northern Domain to Immortal Venerable Yun Meng. However, she had already sent a messenger to inform Yun Meng about the Northern Domain while on her way back, which was why the Immortal Venerates had gathered here today.

At this point, the Sky Eagle Immortal Venerate said with a mocking tone, “Heavenly Language Peak Master really keeps hidden depths, I suppose even the Palace Master is unaware of the Immortal Technique you have that can counter the Heavenly Demon Power?”

“Such a precious Heavenly Rank Immortal Technique, Heavenly Language Peak Master generously passed it on to other Immortal Sects without reservation. Truly magnanimous.”

The matter of the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate teaching other Immortal Sects the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture didn’t require her active reporting, as the Immortal Venerates of the Mysterious Moon Palace were already informed, given that disciples from every peak were sent to the Northern Domain.

Upon learning of this news, the Immortal Venerates were incredulous; they couldn’t recall any Immortal Technique that countered Heavenly Demon Power within the Mysterious Moon Palace. Most crucial was that the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate had made the unilateral decision to impart this Heavenly Rank Immortal Technique to other Immortal Sects.

This Immortal Technique was so invaluable that they could have exchanged it for greater benefits, yet the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate just gave it away.

Upon hearing Sky Eagle’s mocking words, the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate spoke indifferently, “The Palace Master knows.”

This…

As the words of the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate fell, the Immortal Venerates present were momentarily stunned; their Palace Master knew about this?

That suggested that the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate acted upon the Palace Master’s directive in passing the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture to other sects’ Immortal Venerates?

The eyes of the Immortal Venerates then shifted to Immortal Venerable Yun Meng. Yun Meng didn’t intend for Lu Chen to reveal himself too quickly, she simply said, “It’s the ancestor’s intention, and the Immortal Technique also comes from the ancestor.”

Seeing Immortal Venerable Yun Meng’s statement, the Immortal Venerates refrained from further commentary, realizing why the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate could possess such an Immortal Technique — gifted by the ancestor.

Immortal Venerable Yun Meng continued, “Now that the northern expedition failed, disaster looms. We must hurry to let the ancestor live a second life. From today, searching for a Saintess will no longer be restricted to the Central Domain. If suitable candidates are found in other Realms, efforts must be made to bring them back.”

The Immortal Venerates present didn’t find Immortal Venerable Yun Meng’s words strange, although Xu Jingshu was pregnant with the Saintess, no one knew when she might give birth to this Saintess.

Most importantly, the Demon Emperor had now become a significant threat, and in the future, other Super Forces in different Realms likely wouldn’t ally against him. Besides, Tianyan Immortal Domain had experienced anomalies twice, and issues had arisen in the Cultivation Path, all indicating impending catastrophe; they feared that they couldn’t wait to nurture Xu Jingshu’s child.

Thus, seeking a new Saintess was the best option at this time.

Immortal Venerable Yun Meng glanced at the Immortal Venerates present and continued, “I know over the years, there have been covert competitions between the peaks. But now is the life-or-death critical moment; I hope no one acts out of selfish desires, doing things that go against Immortal Sect interests.”

At this point, Yun Meng’s gaze lingered momentarily on the Sky Eagle Immortal Venerate, causing Sky Eagle’s heart to skip a beat upon seeing Yun Meng looking at him.

Could it be that what he did was discovered by Immortal Venerable Yun Meng?

Fortunately, Yun Meng was merely reminding them today, not intending to punish. The Immortal Venerates echoed, “We obey the Palace Master’s command!”

The Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate then reminded, “Palace Master, we might have another major trouble to handle next.”

Immortal Venerable Yun Meng asked, “What trouble? Speak freely, sister.”

The Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate promptly responded, “With the failure of the northern expedition, the Demon Emperor demands Immortals vacate the Northern Domain. The Azure Dragon Hall and those powers in the Northern Domain will definitely move south, while the Central Domain borders the Northern Domain, those powers might covet the lands of Central Domain, leading to new wars.”

“We must prepare to counter Azure Dragon Hall’s southward move.”

During the campaign against the Demon Emperor, they were allies with Azure Dragon Hall, but now that the Immortal Domain Alliance Army disbanded and Azure Dragon Hall intends to move south, they’ve become competitors.

Azure Dragon Hall moving south would surely claim territory, and the entire Central Domain is under the Mysterious Moon Palace’s control; if Azure Dragon Hall aims to seize territory in the Central Domain, a battle between the two sects is inevitable.

On hearing the Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate’s reminder, all Immortal Venerates in the hall fell into contemplation.

While they wished to avoid war with other Immortal Sects in this dire time, should the Northern Domain’s powers move south, war would be unavoidable.

With disaster looming, not only must they prepare for it, but the Northern Domain’s powers also have to cope with it. Without territory, there’s no means to face such a threat; moreover, those powers are substantial forces, not easily dissolved, thus their southward move is bound to involve territory grab.

After a brief silence, Immortal Venerable Yun Meng spoke, “Heavenly Language sister is right; Northern Domain forces moving south will indeed destabilize the Central Domain. Each peak must send people to monitor every action of Northern Domain’s forces; three days later, I will invite leaders of various major forces in the Central Domain for a joint discussion on countermeasures.”

Yun Meng was well aware, despite the strength depletion of Northern Domain’s forces by the Demon Emperor, their foundations still posed a significant threat, especially the Azure Dragon Hall.

If Northern Domain forces collectively moved south, Mysterious Moon Palace alone would struggle to contend with them, hence joining all Central Domain forces against Northern Domain’s powers was crucial.

Immortal Venerable Yun Meng again surveyed the Immortal Venerates present, “If there’s nothing else, let’s wrap up for today; I and Heavenly Language sister still have things to discuss.”

The Immortal Venerates didn’t speak further; they then left Yun Meng Hall. Once all others had departed, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate finally asked, “Palace Master, had you known Chen Lu was Lu Chen all along?”

Yun Meng didn’t deny, “Yes, I recognized him at first glance.”

On hearing this, Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered, affirming her suspicions that Immortal Venerable Yun Meng had long known about Lu Chen’s true identity.

Yun Meng continued, “Lu Chen carries great Qi Fortune, coupled with his likely many fortunes from the Chaotic Sea, keeping him in the Mysterious Moon Palace benefits us greatly.”

The Heavenly Language Immortal Venerate furrowed her brows slightly, then said, “But Xu Jingshu’s child is his; if he discovers the true purpose of the Saintess…” At this point, she hesitated.
