Chapter 800: Chapter 5: Failed Dao Confirmation?

"So, sometimes you really ought to seriously learn a bit about the art of divination."

With a similar seriousness on his face, Li Boyang looked at Er Tu and admonished sincerely.

He knew Er Tu naturally loved freedom, and that uninhibited character indeed had extraordinary appeal to those unacquainted with matters of the heart.

But some matters require precaution.

If not for his sudden hunch this time, foreseeing Er Tu’s death in advance, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Is it my fault for being too charming?"

Lowering his head, feeling guilty, Er Tu muttered indistinctly.

"Your tendency to flirt is Xuansu Clan’s affair, not much to do with me."

"But remember, you’re now a teacher, a mentor, a professor; sometimes you need to keep an appropriate distance."

With a slight headache, he rubbed his temples.

Li Boyang found that although he had rewritten Er Tu’s fate of death, certain things still happened.

It was obvious this was unrelated to divination, purely the inevitable consequence of Er Tu’s character.

If this were on Earth’s past, Li Boyang would certainly have sneered at such conduct, relying on rich experience to engage with immature "little girls."

However, considering this was a Mythical Era, whether Er Tu or his future entangled counterpart was more mature remained an unknown.

Anyway, ultimately becoming a Celestial Demon, early maturity of the mind was certainly inevitable.

"I understand, I’ll be more mindful of this."

Seeing Er Tu’s confident assurance, Li Boyang only temporarily chose to believe him.

After all, he hadn’t come just for Er Tu this time; he had other matters to handle.

"As long as you know it, I also have another thing I’d like you to help with this time."

In Er Tu’s rather surprised gaze, Li Boyang slowly revealed his second purpose for this trip.

"In the future, someone named ’Lv Yan’ will come here to study. I hope you can watch over him a bit for me."

"No need to care for him too much, just watch him, don’t let him go astray."

For some reason, Er Tu sensed that Li Boyang’s emphasis on "going astray" was an implicit jab at himself.

Fortunately, he didn’t dwell on this, quickly focusing on the issue at hand.

"Who is Lv Yan?"

"What makes him worthy of your attention?"

Upon hearing this, Li Boyang pondered for a while and ultimately decided to be honest with Er Tu.

"Do you remember when Emperor Donghua and Yaochi Golden Mother jointly achieved the ’Immortal Way’?"

With a certain nod, Er Tu naturally wouldn’t forget that grand ceremony of proving the Way.

To this day, that proving continues to influence all living beings, closely tied to everyone’s life.

Even the floating islands of Hundred Lands University were born afterward.

"What does Lv Yan have to do with that proving?"

Facing Er Tu’s query, Li Boyang disclosed a shocking fact.

"Actually, that proving back then... can only be considered barely successful."

"Because one of the main figures of the proving – the Fusang Emperor – died."

His eyes widened like copper bells, Er Tu was so shocked he didn’t know what to say for a moment.

"Fusang Emperor? Emperor Donghua? Your incarnation – he died?"

......................................................

Holding a twisted ginsengfruit in one hand, Xiluo swiftly weaved through the clouds.

Within just a few breaths, Xiluo had left the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, heading straight to the East Sea.

Her speed of Soaring Clouds and Mist was simply too fast.

Even the [Profound Garden Barrier] had difficulty capturing her figure, only sending out delayed warning signals.

After receiving this signal, Nvwa merely sighed as if it was routine.

She then removed the information from the alert column, letting nearby high-altitude and low-altitude satellites operate normally.

Because similar occurrences were not the first of their kind.

Nvwa understood Xiluo disliked the tediousness of using the [Profound Garden Gate], finding it too cumbersome to register various information.

But her habit of ignoring various alerts when entering and exiting the [Profound Garden Barrier] gave Nvwa a headache.

The only consolation was that Xiluo always came and went openly.

Aside from annoying some personnel, it didn’t cause any excessively negative repercussions.

"That Mountain God Grandmother left again..."

Noticing the fleeting alert, Bi Xiao, assisting at the Celestial Palace Launch Platform, spoke up.

"Isn’t this the seventh time this month?"

Quickly raising her head, Qiong Xiao, who was checking the equipment’s normal operation, tilted her head.

The two were now in the central security office of the entire launch platform.

They could see various messages and alerts from satellites in real-time.

In fact, this was why the place required 24/7 maintenance.

Even with Wu Xian providing assurance, it took Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao, as outsiders, a long time to be permitted into the Celestial Palace Launch Platform.

Despite this, the tasks they were allowed to handle were still just the idle work of ensuring equipment functioned properly.

"If I remember correctly, that Mountain God Grandmother is supposedly the legendary ’Queen Mother of the West’, right?"

Xiluo’s identity was almost an open secret in Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

Anyone with a bit of experience could guess she was the one who wielded the [Divine Spirit Way], the Yaochi Golden Mother.

After all, the Flat Peach, which appeared only at the "Jade Pool Banquet" in outsiders’ eyes, was virtually in everyone’s hands in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

Especially since the Mountain People mastered planting techniques for Flat Peach, the once scarce resource even had potential for external sales.

"They say the Queen Mother of the West is extremely low-key..."

"But the way she’s acting now, there’s nothing low-key about it, is there?"

Hearing Bi Xiao’s comment, Qiong Xiao insightfully responded.

"Isn’t it possible that the Queen Mother of the West just recently became more high-profile?"

"The timeline should coincide with us arriving in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range when the true ’Saint Roams the Heavens’ began."

With these words, Bi Xiao suddenly seemed to understand.

"You mean the Queen Mother of the West is related to the previous proving?"

Shrugging slightly, Qiong Xiao, whose behavior had become more like the Mountain People, smiled without directly answering.

"In any case, I’m sure Wu Zhen and Wu Xian would want to know about this immediately."

Ever since Xiluo first left the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, Wu Zhen and Wu Xian, as if sensing something, kept a close watch on her actions.

Qiong Xiao was very curious, what exactly did those two perceive?

Why were their actions so... sneaky?

Yes, aside from sneaky, Qiong Xiao really had no words to describe Wu Zhen and Wu Xian’s guilty behavior.
