Chapter 1330: Chapter 996: Gave Liao Kong Another Bow? _2

"Profound Sect... It’s been years since I’ve heard of them. The last time I encountered them was over thirty years ago. But they have vowed that they won’t emerge until the Celestial Dao is restored!"

Princess Ata understood Master Liao Kong’s words clearly; she was aware that the old lady of the Yun Family had met Master Liao Kong at Yun Family over thirty years ago.

"This time with the celestial progeny, the Profound Sect, the Buddhist Sect, and the Daoist Sect all gathering, they are sure to be able to eradicate Xunyang, Princess, rest assured. But as for the Southern King..."

Master Liao Kong chanted a Buddhist name: "Amitabha! Your Highness, to be honest, the Southern King is already at the end of his rope. Resolving it earlier means providing him relief sooner!"

Upon hearing this,

Princess Ata felt a dull ache in her heart, silently bowed to Master Liao Kong, then stood up, walked to the Southern King’s bedside, and gently wiped his face, turned him over, massaged him, while tears flowed down drop by drop.

"Father, please forgive your daughter’s lack of filial piety. For the sake of all living beings, your daughter has no choice but to fail you!"

Princess Ata sobbed quietly, as a hand resembling dry wood stretched out and stroked her cheek.

"Ah Ta, your father should have died long ago. Now that there’s an opportunity for relief, it is the best choice for me!"

The Southern King’s voice contained no sadness, only expectation.

"Ah Ta, the future of Nanjiang is now in your hands!"

Princess Ata’s body shook upon hearing this, "Father, Ah Jia, he..."

"Ah Jia is a good child, but without your assistance, he won’t hold the throne for long."

The Southern King knew clearly that over the years, if it weren’t for his daughter, Nanjiang would have been in chaos under Xunyang’s havoc.

It might even have operated the fortune of Nanjiang, breaking through the seal.

"Rest assured, once Ah Jia becomes the Southern King, your daughter will assist him wholeheartedly!"

Princess Ata promised tearfully.

Her brother Ah Jia is an honest and sincere child, with no malice, and if she wanted the throne of Nanjiang, he would absolutely have no objection.

But does she really want this throne?

Princess Ata couldn’t help asking herself.

She didn’t want to take away what belonged to Ah Jia.

"Ah Ta, don’t... don’t force... force your own heart. You... you will be the best queen in the future for Nanjiang, and the people of Nanjiang are all waiting for you to lead them to light!"

As the Southern King said these words, he could no longer continue, perhaps because as death approached, his heart suddenly grew serene.

"Father..."

Princess Ata cried uncontrollably, calling out twice, but there was no more response from the Southern King.

"Amitabha, Princess Ata, you may invite Chang Rongshun and Princess Shunhe!"

Liao Kong suddenly spoke.

Princess Ata was puzzled, "Suisui?"

"To extract Xunyang’s trace of divine sense from your father’s body, only she can accomplish it!"

Princess Ata widened her eyes upon hearing this, "Master, is this true?"

"Amitabha, a monk does not lie!"

Xiaosuisui was sound asleep in Nanjiang’s Side Palace, lying at all angles, without any posture of sleep.

Princess Ata approached her window, but before she could get close, someone quietly appeared in front of her.

Princess Ata was greatly amazed, and upon closer look, it was Yun Kuo.

"Yun... Master Yun, why are you in Suisui’s room?"

Yun Kuo didn’t speak, just silently observed her.

"Suisui is sleeping, I don’t want anyone to disturb her!"

These words were quite straightforward.

"I have very important matters!"

Princess Ata became somewhat anxious.

"Whatever you have to say, wait until she’s awake!"

"No! It’s extremely urgent!"

Yun Kuo remained unmoved.

Princess Ata became anxious, "It’s about Xunyang!"

Yun Kuo frowned, Princess Ata added, "If we delay, it will be too late."

Yun Kuo pondered repeatedly, then stepped aside, allowing Princess Ata to awaken Suisui herself.

When Suisui was awakened, her eyes were bleary, she stretched out her little hand to rub her eyes.

"What’s the matter, Princess Ata sister!"

"Suisui! A strand of Xunyang’s divine sense has been trapped deep within my father’s Sea of Consciousness. Master Liao Kong said only you can force out that strand of divine sense."

Xiaosuisui blinked and upon hearing Liao Kong’s name, her small body trembled slightly.

"Suisui doesn’t want to see Liao Kong, he has that wooden fish that gives me a headache."

Xiaosuisui hadn’t forgotten last year’s incident at Qixia Temple; upon hearing Liao Kong’s name, she backed away.
