NOVPUBChapter 1106: Chapter 796: The Mysterious Heavenly Mystery Maiden
The War Dragon Army now relied on Flying Boats formbat, and with the speed of these Flying Boats, it would take less than a day to reach the Capital city of the Great Chu Dynasty.
Lu Chen believed that the Emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty was a wise man and knew what needed to be done at this time.
If the Chu Emperor were sensible, then the members of the Great Chu Royal Familyuld all survive, but if the Chu Emperor insisted on resisting, then only destruction awaited the Great Chu Royal Family.
After arranging the military operations, Lu Chen planned to visit Nangong Yuehua in her room, but just then, a Jinyiwei Guard entered the study and said, “Your Majesty, the elder disciples from the Tianji Pavilion have arrived at Black Moon City.”
After dealing with the matters at the Tianji Pavilion, Shao Yuanjia immediately brought some of the Tianji Pavilion’s elders and outstanding disciples to Black Moon City.
Hearing the words of the Jinyiwei Guard, Lu Chen raised his hand, about to give orders, when a maid entered the study and said, “Your Majesty, Elder Yu Changqin from the Tianji Pavilion requests an audience.”
Lu Chen lowered his hand and immediately said, “Never mind, let Shao Yuanjiame in.”
“Yes.”
Soon, Shao Yuanjia arrived in the study and said, “This sinner greets Your Majesty!”
Lu Chen said, “From now on, stop calling yourself a ‘sinner.’ You are no longer members of the Tianji Pavilion, and the matter of releasing the Heavenly Demon no longerncerns you.”
Shao Yuanjia quickly replied, “Yes, Your Majesty.”
Lu Chenntinued, “Since you have now pledged allegiance under mymmand, I cannot let you idle and waste your abilities.”
“I plan to create a new institution called the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, and you will be the first Chief Supervisor.”
“The main responsibility of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau is to divine the heavenly mysteries and predict in advance the crises that the Daxia Army might face.”
Although the people from the Tianji Pavilion were unable to predict the life of the Qi Fortune child, predicting potential dangers for the Daxia Army wouldn’t be too big of an issue.
Hearing Lu Chen’s words, an extremely excited Shao Yuanjia knelt on the ground and said, “Thank Your Majesty! I will not let Your Majesty down!”
Lu Chen thenntinued, “Did you bring the historical rrds from the Tianji Pavilion?”
Shao Yuanjia answered, “Your Majesty, they have all been brought, currently on the Flying Boat.”
Lu Chen said, “Take me to see them.”
Shao Yuanjia immediately replied, “Please follow me, Your Majesty.”
Led by Shao Yuanjia, Lu Chen then arrived at a Tianji Pavilion Flying Boat.
Inside the cabin of the Flying Boat,untless scrolls and books were piled up, most of whichntained Cultivation Techniquentents.
Lu Chen was not particularly interested in those Cultivation Techniques; he mainly wanted to check if the historical rrds of the Tianji Pavilionntained any information about other worlds.
He then said to Shao Yuanjia, “In these books, which ones are about other worlds?”
Shao Yuanjia replied, “Your Majesty, the scrolls on the last row of shelvesntain information about other worlds.”
Lu Chen glanced at those scrolls, which were either made of bamboo or animal fur, indicating that the Tianji Pavilion had been established very early in this world, a time when paper was not yet present in Ziyang World.
Lu Chen then approached the last row of shelves, picked up a scroll, and began reading it intently. After finishing, he felt a slight surprise.
As it turned out, the so-called Tianji Pavilion was not merely a power in Ziyang World. The founder of Ziyang World’s Tianji Pavilion hailed from a more advanced High-Level Cultivation Realm and was a disciple of the Tianji Pavilion there.
That disciple had originallyme to Ziyang World to establish the Tianji Pavilion with a mission, but only he himself knew what that specific mission was.
Unfortunately, the first Pavilion Master of the Tianji Pavilion had limited talents, and after spending years delving into thesmic secrets, he soon passed away.
Following that, Lu Chen read through more scrolls and gradually grasped some situationsncerning the Tianji Pavilion.
The Tianji Pavilion was a vast force within the universe and had branches in many worlds. Arding to the rrds of Ziyang World’s first Pavilion Master, the Tianji Pavilion seemed to be searching for someone.
When the first Pavilion Master arrived in the Ziyang World, his Honored Master had instructed him about certain matters, but he didn’t write them down, seemingly to keep them from being widely known.
Lu Chen chuckled, finding this quite fitting of fortune-tellers’ styles, full of mystery and trickery.
They wrote about the tasks of the Tianji Pavilion, yet the details were implete; why bother writing at all?
Noticing Lu Chen’s expression appearing somewhat displeased, Shao Yuanjia carefully asked, “Your Majesty, if there is a problem with these scrolls, I can have them destroyed immediately.”
Lu Chen regained hismposure and placed the scroll back on the shelf, “They are just historical rrds, whatuld be the problem?”
While speaking, Lu Chen took another scroll from a different shelf and opened it again.
When he saw thentents of this scroll, Lu Chen fell into deep thought; it stated that the actual person in power of the Tianji Pavilion was not the Pavilion Master, but the Saintess, also known as the Heavenly Mystery Maiden.
The scroll rrded that the Heavenly Mystery Maiden’s prophetic abilities were so powerful sheuld see what would happen in the previous and the next eras.
Lu Chen was utterly shocked, that horrifying?
Could this Heavenly Mystery Maiden be a being that surpasses a Great Emperor?
However, the scroll mentioned next that although the Heavenly Mystery Maiden possessed such abilities, she would not lightly prophesy about other eras, because the backlash from doing so might cause her to disappear. This disappearance did not mean death, but to vanish into thin air, making everything about her cease to exist in the world, and only she would know the results of her prophecy; sheuld not share the details of other eras with anyone.
While Lu Chen was engrossed in reading, the last line of the scroll suddenly made him feel speechless.
“All the above information is just hearsay; even I heard it from my Honored Master.”
Lu Chen immediately rolled up the scroll and placed it back on the shelf. The first Pavilion Master of the Ziyang World’s Tianji Pavilion was truly idle to rrd mere rumors.
Then, Lu Chen read through more scrolls, and unknowingly, half the day had passed.
Lu Chen glanced and saw there were still many scrolls on the shelf. Although many of them rrded mere rumors, it helped him to learn more about the universe.
This enriched his worldview in this world, which was somewhat useful.
Then, Lu Chen instructed Shao Yuanjia, “Move all these historical rrds to the City Lord’s Mansion in Black Moon City.”
Shao Yuanjia immediately responded, “Yes, Your Majesty.”
Right after, Lu Chen used Shadow Shifting and left the Flying Boat directly to where Nangong Yuehua was staying.
At that moment, Nangong Yuehua stood by the window of her room, looking up at the War Dragon Army’s Flying Boats heading toward the Capital City of the Great Chu Dynasty, seemingly pondering something.
The next moment, she sensed a presence in the room and turned her head to see Lu Chen had arrived.
Nangong Yuehua immediately said, “Greetings… Your Majesty.”
Nangong Yuehua spoke with difficulty and bowed reluctantly. After all, she herself was an Empress, accustomed to others bowing to her. Now, she had to bow to another Emperor, and her identity transition was a bit hard to adjust.
Lu Chen smiled slightly, “Purple Emperor, there’s no need for formalities.”
As he spoke, Lu Chen glanced at Nangong Yuehua’s file.
He found that Nangong Yuehua indeed came for the Saint-grade Cultivation Technique, but that was a sndary purpose. Nangong Yuehua’s real objective was still tompete with Nangong Qingya forntrol of this world.
