Chapter 2853: Chapter 1326: Envoys from the Mother of Water Palace (Part 2)
After listening to Azhi’s words, all the Divinity Transformation cultivators turned their gaze towards Qing Nu, with Shenxi and others showing expressions of realization.
No wonder she possessed such mysterious alchemy techniques, even capturing the interest of the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor.
Being a descendant of the Sky Sea Jellyfish Palace explains it all.
Thinking about it, the reason why the old Flood Dragon was slain above the Mysterious Sea must have been because someone from the Mother of Water Palace secretly brought the Primordial Water Control Banner over.
It all makes sense, it matches perfectly!
The local Divinity Transformation cultivators from the East Continent were suddenly enlightened.
Although Dustless True Monarch had suspected this earlier, having two Divinity Transformation cultivators from the Mother of Water Palace come today confirmed it.
“I am Chen Guixian from the Five Elements Sect, on behalf of my wife, I thank the two of you for coming to the banquet. Please take the seat of honor.”
Under the watchful eyes of the cultivators, Chen Mobai finally spoke up, arranging for E Yun to place two cases beside him, signaling to the two Divinity Transformation cultivators from the Mother of Water Palace to sit down.
Although he still couldn’t figure out the true purpose of the Mother of Water Palace sending people over, considering the status of this force in the Tianhe Realm and the relationship with the Purple Cloud Palace, being polite is certainly not wrong.
“There’s no need to sit. We came today primarily because of an issue.”
Azhi continued speaking with a smile, while the merfolk named Yuan Ming appeared reticent, remaining silent since their arrival.
“Oh.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai frowned.
According to local customs, if someone refuses to sit upon arrival, they come with ill intentions.
All the Divinity Transformation cultivators present noticed something amiss here.
The Vast Energy Immortal and Taixu Immortal exchanged glances, puzzled.
Has the Five Elements Sect ever done anything to offend the Mother of Water Palace?
Chen Mobai thought for a moment, and it seemed they hadn’t.
The only connection to the Mother of Water Palace was when they eradicated Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace and obtained the Immortal Book jade slip.
But this matter has always been kept secret within the Five Elements Sect and never leaked, even when Qing Nu refined the alchemy recipe recorded upon it, purchasing herbs was mixed with others to avoid suspicion.
Moreover, the main herbs were never collected externally—either Chen Mobai stole them or synthesized them with the Primordial Great Dao.
“Please speak, fellow Daoist.”
Chen Mobai had countless thoughts running through his mind, yet his expression remained calm, as the Heavenly Blessing didn’t show any warning signs, so he decided to ask directly.
“A thousand years ago, our palace had a traitor who stole an Immortal Book jade slip from the Cangming Palace and fled from the Heaven and Sea.”
“However, as the traitor fled the palace, she didn’t clean up properly, allowing a Venerable from my sect to use her hair to perform a Secret Technique, spending twelve years on a curse, but the stolen item remained outside the palace and must be retrieved.”
“For the past thousand years, we have been searching for its whereabouts, and not long ago, we discovered a crucial clue—after leaving Heaven and Sea, she hid in the Mysterious Sea.”
At this point, Azhi paused and cast a meaningful glance at Qing Nu beside Chen Mobai.
At this moment, Qing Nu also understood that the two from the Mother of Water Palace came for her, feeling slightly nervous inside.
Over the years, she had thoroughly integrated into the Tianhe Realm, understanding that the Sky Sea Jellyfish Palace in this world is a colossal entity.
No matter who the strongest Divinity Transformation is in the Righteous Path, the first place in the Impermanence Pavilion will always belong to this “Palace”.
According to local customs, Qing Nu’s comprehension of the Immortal Book jade slip was tantamount to spying the inheritance of the Mother of Water Palace, which is taboo.
Did the two people come today to deal with this matter?
How did the Mother of Water Palace know?
Even within the Five Elements Sect, those who know of this matter are very few, all are Nascent Souls and would never betray.
No, there is one more person!
Qing Nu remembered that in the generation of Zhou Shengqing from the Five Elements Sect, there was another person who left the sect, Nu Jiang.
At that time, the Immortal Book jade slip was obtained by him and Sheng Zhaoxi and offered together to Chen Mobai.
Did he fall into the hands of the Mother of Water Palace and betray the sect!?
While Qing Nu was contemplating how to deal with the situation, Chen Mobai stepped forward, blocking the path between Qing Nu and the two from the Mother of Water Palace, and walked step by step to the center of the Dao Platform.
“What do you mean by this, fellow Daoist?”
When Azhi mentioned the Immortal Book jade slip, Chen Mobai understood that something must have gone wrong with Nu Jiang after leaving the Five Elements Sect, revealing the secret to the Mother of Water Palace.
Although the Mother of Water Palace is very powerful, he was prepared to fight for Qing Nu.
“A hundred years ago, a cultivator from your sect joined our Mother of Water Palace and luckily formed a Nascent Soul.”
“Such a realm is enough to become a formal disciple of our palace, so he was sent into the Mirage Illusion Realm to ensure he hadn’t harmed the Mother of Water Palace through tests to be formally accepted.”
“During the process, it was discovered that this outer disciple once obtained the Immortal Book jade slip stolen by the traitor and offered it to you.”
Azhi’s voice was clear and pleasant, narrating the whole story to the Divinity Transformation cultivators present.
“Mr. Chen, is this true?”
Shenxi asked first after hearing the explanation.
Although the Dao Morale Sect had a good relationship with Chen Mobai, the Mother of Water Palace was their lineage’s origin, making it difficult to side with the Five Elements Sect on this matter.
“That’s indeed the case!”
Chen Mobai bluntly admitted it, as it was obvious the Mother of Water Palace had solid evidence, there’s no point denying it.
His acknowledgment stirred discussions among the Divinity Transformation cultivators.
They thought the alchemy technique of Danxia True Monarch, although inherited from the Mother of Water Palace, turned out to be learned secretly.
Although local customs consider successfully learning as a skill, having the original holder confront you is still disgraceful.
Shenxi sighed, choosing to stay silent given his relationship with Chen Mobai.
“Could Mr. Chen return this Immortal Book jade slip to us?”
Azhi stated their purpose.
Upon hearing this, the Divinity Transformation cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.
They were afraid the two from the Mother of Water Palace would be overbearing, forcing the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor to lower his head.
Clearly, judging from the Qing Emperor’s past actions, he would never bow.
With the Mother of Water Palace being courteous, perhaps this issue can be resolved peacefully.
“Returning what’s not yours is a virtue, if the Mother of Water Palace requires it, I have no objections.”
Chen Mobai’s reply allowed the Vast Energy Immortal and Taixu Immortal to exhale smoothly.
Though strong, the Mother of Water Palace couldn’t be underestimated, considering they were on the Five Elements Sect’s territory and the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor was ready to step into Cultivating Void.
“Thank you, fellow Daoist. Due to our palace rules, no inheritance is allowed to leak, so Danxia True Monarch must return with us to Heaven and Sea for the Palace Master and Venerables to pass judgment.”
But at this moment, Azhi added another sentence.
In an instant, Chen Mobai’s formerly calm expression became gloomy.
Rumble!
In the sky, the recently dissipated heavenly tribulation clouds began to gather once again, causing the cultivators on the Eastern Wilderness Plateau, who have just enjoyed the Dusk Drum benefits, to tremble again.
[Oh no!]
Taixu Immortal noticed Chen Mobai’s expression and secretly thought this situation was bad, regretting opening the intercontinental transmission array.
Refusing right from the start could have avoided any trouble.
Clearly, in the Eastern Wilderness Qing Emperor’s heart, the position of his Daoist couple is very high; if it were just about the Immortal Book jade slip, he would have let it go out of respect for the Mother of Water Palace’s reputation.
But now they wanted to take her away, which Chen Mobai couldn’t accept at all.
“Isn’t that unfortunate? I also comprehended the Immortal Book jade slip, so do you also wish to take me away, too?”
