Chapter 638 - 637: Where Is the Qingqiu Entrance? Emperor Haotian Is No Ordinary Man
"Since that’s the case, shouldn’t she and her mother be in complete agreement?" Red Boy was puzzled, not understanding why the Ox Demon King was needed as a mediator.
The Ox Demon King calmly replied, "Because initially, Princess Yumian couldn’t be sure of Princess Iron Fan’s intentions."
"In Princess Yumian’s understanding, since Su Daji and Bao Si, the outside world has regarded the Qingqiu Fox Race as ominous. Any Qingqiu Fox Race member falling into the outside world would meet a tragic end, so she dare not expose her origins."
"Moreover, over the long years, more than one Rakshasa has entered Qingqiu, and none of these Rakshasa ancestors survived at the hands of the Qingqiu Fox Race."
"Thus, in truth, the Qingqiu Fox Race and the Rakshasa Race have an ancient grudge."
"Given such circumstances, she naturally dared not directly approach Princess Iron Fan." The Ox Demon King recalled the past, a deep sigh on his face.
Tianpeng said, "So she came to you first, to probe your understanding of Princess Iron Fan’s intentions?"
The Ox Demon King nodded, "That’s right."
With that, he laughed to himself, muttering, "Unfortunately, Princess Yumian was too naïve. She didn’t realize that, from the start, Princess Iron Fan had already guessed her origins."
"But just as Yumian didn’t know Iron Fan’s intentions, Iron Fan actually wasn’t aware that Yumian accidentally fell out of Qingqiu."
"In Iron Fan’s understanding, Yumian should have been like Su Daji and Bao Si, here with a mission."
"Iron Fan believed that Yumian was impossible to reveal the entryway to Qingqiu to a Rakshasa."
"So, unintentionally, I became the middleman."
"Yumian wanted to extract Iron Fan’s view on Qingqiu from my mouth, while Iron Fan wanted me to find out the location of Qingqiu from Yumian."
Talking about these things made the Ox Demon King laugh by himself again.
"Did you find out the location of Qingqiu?" the Red-bottomed Macaque asked, a piercing sharpness in his cloudy eyes.
The Ox Demon King was silent for a moment before finally nodding, "I did find out."
Everyone heard and showed excitement.
Then the Ox Demon King said, "But I chose to keep it from Iron Fan..."
The people present had a slight pause in their expressions, but soon understood the Ox Demon King’s dilemma.
"No Rakshasa entering Qingqiu has ever come out alive."
"You don’t want Princess Iron Fan to go there, do you?"
Tianpeng said, looking at the Ox Demon King with some sympathy.
"Exactly."
The Ox Demon King’s eyes were firm, "I told Iron Fan that the entryway to Qingqiu keeps changing, and Yumian doesn’t know the exact location at the moment either. Only when someday in the future, when a dead being reappears in the world, that will be Qingqiu’s entryway."
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at each other, puzzled.
"So, you deceived her..."
Unexpectedly, the Ox Demon King shook his head, saying, "I didn’t deceive Iron Fan, I simply didn’t directly tell her the entryway to Qingqiu."
"At that time, Iron Fan’s cultivation was too weak. If she went to Qingqiu, she would surely die."
Everyone agreed, nodding in approval.
In the distant Western Journey Calamity Era, although Princess Iron Fan was somewhat renowned, she merely possessed the strength of a Demon King Level.
She hadn’t even stepped into the Quasi-Saint.
At that time, Iron Fan hadn’t even touched the Immortal Emperor Realm.
With such cultivation, entering the mysterious Qingqiu would surely lead to a deadly outcome.
Sun Wukong murmured, recalling the Ox Demon King’s earlier words.
"Wait until some future day, when a dead being reappears, that will be the entryway to Qingqiu..."
"So, you gave sister-in-law a vague and uncertain timeline..."
Sun Wukong couldn’t help but lament.
Until today, he finally glimpsed the tender feelings and helplessness deep within this sworn brother’s heart.
"Wait..." Sun Wukong suddenly remembered something, puzzled, he turned to Red Boy and said, "You mentioned earlier that your mother has already gone to Qingqiu?"
"Couldn’t it be that a dead being has already reappeared in the world?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere at the scene turned subtly.
Everyone exchanged glances, and deep within their eyes, an incredible answer emerged simultaneously.
They suddenly realized, their eyes widened together and they exclaimed, "Could it be the Demon Race’s Ten Great Saints?"
With these words.
Even Lin Heng couldn’t help but have a look of surprise on his face.
Red-bottomed Macaque, Yang Jian, everyone turned to look at the Ox Demon King.
And under their gaze, the Ox Demon King slowly revealed the answer.
"That’s right."
He took a deep breath and solemnly said, "The North Sea Sea Eye, the place it leads to, is Qingqiu!"
This place was crafted by Lin Heng, isolating external auras, so the Ox Demon King wasn’t concerned about outsiders overhearing.
The Ox Demon King’s eyes were complex, "Back when Iron Fan assisted Ying Zheng in breaking the Ancient Celestial Court’s seal on the Dragon Race’s Grand Array, I knew she would certainly figure it out."
"So, she left."
"Before the Demon Race’s Ten Great Saints had reappeared in the world, she had already entered the North Sea Sea Eye, and the Demon Race’s Ten Great Saints later being able to break the barrier and return to the Great Thousand, should also be because of her."
The Ox Demon King sighed, his words light yet startling everyone present.
The day the Demon Race’s Ten Great Saints came into the world.
It was precisely when the second Saint seat descended in the North Sea.
At that time, the Venerable Emperor Chong’en, Mencius, and the Demon Ancestor all fought for the seat, using extreme sacred weapons.
The battle of sacred weapons destroyed the already loosening array patterns of the Sea Eye.
This allowed the Ten Great Saints to break the seal and emerge.
But everyone was puzzled as to how the Ten Great Saints, lost in the Witch Demon war, could return? And why did they reappear in the Sea Eye?
Initially, the world’s strongmen speculated it must be the work of Kunpeng Demon Master and the River Map and Luo Book.
Only now, with the Ox Demon King’s clarification.
Everyone gradually realized.
"I’ve been trapped in the North Sea for many years, knowing there are many terrifying beings imprisoned below the Sea Eye, but never thought that it would be Qingqiu’s entrance..." Shen Gongbao couldn’t help but shake his head in self-mockery.
He prided himself on being a master of celestial calculations and knowledgeable.
Yet never realized.
The mysterious entrance to Qingqiu lay beneath his feet, unnoticed for nearly a million years.
"I must say, Emperor Haotian is more formidable than imagined."
He couldn’t help but sigh.
The Ancient Celestial Court set a great array to suppress the Dragon Race, and crafted array patterns for them, utilizing them to press the Sea Eye.
Thought to have been balancing these ancient races and forces, unexpectedly, the secret of Qingqiu was hidden behind it all...
"By the way, might Emperor Haotian also have a day of resurgence?" Shen Gongbao suddenly reacted, his tone extremely solemn.
Sun Wukong, Tianpeng, Nezha, and others, who experienced the rule of Emperor Haotian, also had their expressions shaken, becoming solemn.
No one would forget the brilliance of the Ancient Celestial Court.
It was the only force since the Dragon and Phoenix races’ battles that managed, at least on the surface, to make the Five Great Immortal Realms bow.
And during that era.
Emperor Haotian was acknowledged as the lord of heaven and earth!
