Chapter 1703: The Female Lead Reversed (Part 7)

Chapter 1703: Chapter 618: The Female Lead Reversed (Part 7)

But, Master Hui Tong was really curious.

Dharma Decline Era, Mystical Sect in decay.

In recent years, although the Spiritual Energy has been replenished a bit, many renowned sects have lost their inheritance.

Only Master Hui Tong with the light of Merit was fortunate enough to discover the Secret Manual of Fajue Temple, which allowed him to start Cultivation and touch the threshold of Mysticism.

He then became the Enlightened master praised by everyone!

Knowing himself well, Master Hui Tong is very clear that in the true realm of the Mystical Sect, he is just a beginner.

Now, he has encountered someone who can easily erase his Rune Spiritual Power, even though he hasn’t seen it with his own eyes, he can deduce that this person’s cultivation is much higher than his!

Who is it?

What kind of a big shot?

Coming to the Capital City, yet still so low-key and reserved?

Out of curiosity, the usually cautious Master Hui Tong even found himself getting a bit rash.

His Divine Sense enveloped the entire Prince Liang’s Mansion, probing like a searchlight in circles.

“Hiss!”

Master Hui Tong did not find a “fellow traveler,” but was nearly blinded by a flash of dazzling golden light.

He quickly retracted his Divine Sense, fingered the Prayer Beads, murmuring sutras to stabilize his thoughts.

Even though it was just a fleeting moment, Master Hui Tong still remembered the location where that mass of golden light appeared.

Not far, right next to where Prince Liang resides.

“…That is the residence of the Princess Consort!”

Jin Yu, being the most favored maid of Prince Liang, and rewarded by Consort Shu from the palace, holds a significant position in Prince Liang’s Mansion.

After Prince Liang fell into a coma, she temporarily managed the affairs of the mansion.

Upon Master Hui Tong’s arrival, it was also Jin Yu who greeted him.

After hearing Master Hui Tong’s question, Jin Yu hesitated slightly before giving an answer.

“The Princess Consort?”

Master Hui Tong was taken aback, and only after a while remembered: Yes, a few months ago, Prince Liang returned to the Capital City with a woman from the common folk.

It is said that this common woman was Prince Liang’s life-saving benefactor.

For a life-saving favor, one should promise oneself in marriage as a repayment.

This phrase was originally just a line from a drama, yet Prince Liang perfectly played it out in real life.

Despite all opposition and criticism, Prince Liang insisted on marrying that common woman.

After getting married, it is said that the two were very much in love.

The Princess Consort Liang also became the object of envy among the noble ladies and noblewomen in the Capital City.

Such splendor, even Master Hui Tong, who was usually indifferent to worldly affairs, heard a few words from the Nobles who came to offer incense and seek Runes.

However, in the last two months, the Princess Consort Liang seemed to have fallen ill and has not appeared in the Capital City’s social scene for a long time.

Some people secretly murmured: “It turns out to be someone who can’t withstand the grand blessings, even the greatest fortune needs to be bearable!”

“Isn’t it so? They say it’s not acclimatized, haha, I think it’s just that she doesn’t have the fate for such prosperity!”

Of course, some suspected that the Princess Consort Liang might be pregnant and was staying in the mansion to nurture her pregnancy.

But no matter what everyone guessed, not a single person doubted Prince Liang, and none thought that the Princess Consort Liang was imprisoned!

…Prince Liang’s portrayal of a perfect man was indeed spectacular, the entire Capital City was fooled.

Only at this moment, Master Hui Tong.

After confirming that the location of the golden light was indeed the main room of the Princess Consort, he found an excuse to have Jin Yu bring the Princess Consort Liang over.

Jin Yu was somewhat unwilling.

The Princess Consort Liang is the legitimate mistress of the mansion.

After the incident with Prince Liang, it should have been the Princess Consort Liang who managed the affairs of the Prince’s Mansion.

However, Jin Yu, relying on her status, and considering the Prince’s past disregard for Lady He, did not really take the Princess Consort Liang seriously.

The housekeeper’s authority of the Prince Mansion, Jin Yu firmly grasped in her own hands, not wanting to let it slip away.

But, Master Hui Tong is the Enlightened master sent by the Emperor, whether the Prince can wake up depends on Master Hui Tong.

Jin Yu did not dare to disobey Master Hui Tong’s order.

Bearing her internal resistance, Jin Yu had Xiaoya “invite” He Tiantian over.

“Hiss!”

Master Hui Tong stared fixedly at the entrance, and as a graceful figure stepped in, his gaze followed.

Then he was again dazzled by a mass of blinding golden light.

This time, Master Hui Tong was prepared, so he did not get blinded.

Enduring the glaring sensation, he used his Divine Sense to probe a bit.

“How, how dense is the Merit Golden Light!”

“How many good deeds must this person have done in their previous life to accumulate so much Merit?”

“Or perhaps, this person is simply a righteous person through many lifetimes, and only then—”

With so much Merit, by accumulating a bit more, perhaps they could achieve Ascension.

Master Hui Tong’s heart pounded, and his gaze towards He Tiantian was filled with envy and awe.

This person, although not a Mystical Sect big shot or an expert senior, is someone bearing rich Merit Golden Light.

This lifetime, perhaps it is just a trial for them.

If they can pass it, they might directly achieve Ascension…
