Chapter 1559: Chapter 950: Underlying Currents Surging
Zhao Heng was also a man of endurance, with a temperament that surpassed even that of his royal brothers.
Though shocked by Tao Yu’s sudden appearance, he quickly steadied his composure and, with a smile, cupped his hands and said,
"You must be ’Primordial Inheritor’ Hong Xuanji, Master Hong. I thought the rumors in Jianghu were exaggerated, but now that I’ve seen you, your strength is truly astonishing."
To appear here at such close distance without him, a half-step Outer Realm expert, noticing at all, was something an ordinary Outer Realm expert absolutely couldn’t achieve.
"Hmm, not bad."
Tao Yu sized up Zhao Heng with a glance and nodded slightly.
This guy also cultivates the Human Dao Technique, and in Tao Yu’s view, his potential is higher than that of Prince Jin.
As for the Crown Prince...
That guy has some obscure aura about him, which was uncertain before. Now, having learned more through the Human Emperor Sword, it’s possible he’s a pawn of some Great Power, but not as skillfully handled as those by Six Paths or Yuanshi Tianzun.
Zhao Heng didn’t know what Tao Yu’s "not bad" evaluation meant, but it should be a compliment, so he kept a smile on his face.
"You are the main character of the Qionghua Banquet, why sneak in like this? Just come openly, the imperial family and all the noble families will surely welcome you."
Due to being from the same hometown and having practiced together for two months, Meng Qi was more casual in his attitude towards Tao Yu.
Zhao Heng was also inwardly shocked by such words, showing that their relationship was better than he imagined.
"I just find it troublesome, and I wanted to check out the situation first. I have a premonition something’s going to happen here."
Tao Yu felt that the feng shui of the Divine Capital was not quite right.
Although the Great Array was exquisitely set up, combined with the collected national fortune and Divine Weapon suppression, hosted by an Outer Realm Peak expert, able to rival a Dharma Body.
But Tao Yu had a feeling of impending upheaval here.
With his level of strength, even if this world’s Tianyi might mislead him, the outcome should not be wrong.
"This... you really think something’s going to happen?"
Meng Qi was shocked internally, knowing this fellow was a Dharma Body master!
Six Paths had to avoid the Dharma Body when pulling people in!
He had even broken free from Six Paths’ compulsory constraints!
Zhao Heng was equally startled, but his concern stemmed from another aspect, particularly worried about his reincarnation task.
Six Paths summoned team members for a reason, is the task against this Primordial Inheritor?
If so, that would be truly troubling...
"If you’re worried about your tasks conflicting with me, there’s no need. Six Paths has uses for me, hence won’t target me now and here."
Tao Yu, as if reading minds, casually waved his hand, telling them not to worry about it.
This left Zhao Heng even more shocked!
"You, you... alright, it seems nothing can be hidden from Master Hong."
Realizing Six Paths hadn’t given any hints, Zhao Heng sighed, then smiled wryly at Meng Qi.
"Looks like you’ve known for a while."
"He didn’t say anything; I can’t possibly betray him, right?"
"True, but what major event could occur in the Divine Capital? Who dares to act recklessly here?"
Zhao Heng frowned slightly, wondering if they were the reckless ones.
Divine Capital, the best of Great Jin!
And the Great Jin Imperial Family, selected by the noble houses and acknowledged by sects, inherently represent the Law!
Even for Dharma Body experts, they wouldn’t dare provoke trouble casually here.
Otherwise, exposing a flaw might lead to attacks from enemies or provide a pretext for a coordinated inquiry from the world.
"Specifically, it’s hard to calculate..."
Tao Yu seemed nonchalant; who knows if the world’s divination and peering into Heavenly Secret were dictated by someone?
He merely came first to understand a bit.
However, upon entering, Tao Yu felt there wasn’t much issue in the Divine Capital...
"So what do you think should be done now?"
With a strong backing present, Meng Qi mainly sought Tao Yu’s opinion.
"Just proceed as planned. After all, this is initiated by me. Whoever wants to stir trouble must wait until I’ve achieved what I want..."
Tao Yu’s eyes cast a profound look.
The tussle between Tianyi, that’s your affair; as long as I get what I want...
...
As the time for the Qionghua Banquet approached.
On the same day, Meng Qi’s other two reincarnation companions, Qi Zhengyan and Ruan Yushu from the Langya Ruan family, also found an opportunity to meet up.
Upon learning that Tao Yu, the ’Primordial Inheritor’, was possibly also a Reincarnator, they naturally met with him.
Having friendly allies is certainly better than enemies.
Tao Yu also saw the serious and ordinary-looking Qi Zhengyan, and the ethereal beauty Ruan Yushu.
His gaze only lingered on Ruan Yushu, this little foodie, for a moment, sensing her pure and innocent youth, before losing interest and focusing on Qi Zhengyan.
This guy...
No, or rather, those selected Reincarnators more or less have arrangements by bigwigs.
But Qi Zhengyan’s internal aura reminded Tao Yu of the ’Demon Emperor Claw’ on the Divine Weapon exchange list.
"Hidden deeply."
Tao Yu’s sweeping gaze made Qi Zhengyan’s heart sink, giving him a sense that his secrets were exposed, yet he said nothing.
Meanwhile, Ruan Yushu, munching on dried fish, curiously observed Tao Yu and the Green Bird.
She had encountered quite a few Reincarnators, both adversarial and cooperative.
With Little Meng vouching for him, this one should be problem-free.
Additionally, she didn’t sense any fear of Six Paths from him in their conversation; his words were quite casual.
"This Qionghua Banquet was organized by me. I’ll simply invite you then, though the royal family is the host, and they might have additional plans."
