Chapter 982: Chapter 982
"Could it be an illusion?" Zhou Bai frowned. He then noticed that Christina and Elsa in his sea of consciousness, as well as the three monsters in the Zuo Family's treasure vault, all seemed faintly angry with him, as if whatever he said or did displeased them and made them feel furious.
Zhou Bai immediately withdrew the 'cheap pressure,' and things returned to normal. He quickly sent Christina back to practice the Original Dao Canon 07.
"The influence of this cheap pressure is really strong. If I actively provoke others, it might just take a small irritation to make someone fight me desperately..."
"...So what exactly is the use of this Dao technique? Is it just to get myself beaten to death?"
"I hope the upcoming star point can work with the cheap pressure to have some miraculous effect. But the next star point requires 30 million Lazy Value points."
Zhou Bai looked at his current Lazy Value points: 25.9 million
Zhou Bai felt his cheap pressure and had a sense that there was some deeper mystery involved, beyond what the star point description mentioned, but he couldn't quite pinpoint it. He shook his head and decided to put it aside for now.
Although he had cultivated a new star point, it seemed like it didn't significantly enhance his combat power for the time being. Zhou Bai then turned his attention to the twenty azure strands of fortune surrounding the Primordial Spirit, which represented a glow.
However, after some thought, he decided to keep these twenty glows in his hand without allocating them.
'I'll see which ability needs the most enhancement when I disrupt the wedding later, and then add these twenty threads of divine favor.'
Thinking about stopping the wedding, Zhou Bai thought of Xuan Nu.
'I'd better talk to Xuan Nu in advance... to prevent any crazy rumors from reaching her ears and causing misunderstandings.'
After some thought, Zhou Bai contacted Xuan Nu in his mind: "Xuan Nu? Are you there?"
Xuan Nu's joyful voice came through: "Zhou Bai? Are you looking for me?"
"Yes, I have something to tell you." Zhou Bai thought carefully and said with a deliberative tone, "The Supreme Heavenly Venerate is holding a wedding to incite a conflict among the divine beings. The Supreme Heavenly Venerate's power is already strong enough; I cannot sit by and let him grow stronger or succeed in any conspiracy. Therefore, I've decided to stop this wedding."
Xuan Nu's alert voice immediately came through: "Is Ming Yue marrying someone else?"
Zhou Bai paused, helplessly saying: "Yes, it's Ming Yue."
The other side fell silent, and just when Zhou Bai was wondering if something had gone wrong with Xuan Nu, her voice came through again, seemingly with a hint of amusement: "Alright, I have no problem with that. You go ahead."
"Oh." Zhou Bai nodded: "Alright then, as long as you understand. I'm off to handle things."
"Have the mechanical followers all arrived?" Zhou Bai thought for a moment and began transmitting through the Heavenly Demon's communication network. When planning to stop the wedding, Zhou Bai had already started assembling mechanical followers.
In the kitchen of Zhou Bai's house in Donghua City, Xuan Nu, who was cutting vegetables, showed a delighted smile. She put down the kitchen knife, but as she listened to Zhou Bai's words, her expression gradually turned cold.
After a long while, she forced a smile, wiping her moist eyes while reassuring the other party that there was nothing wrong with her.
Xuan Nu felt that she trusted Zhou Bai very much, but she couldn't understand why she felt so unhappy upon hearing this matter, her chest heavy like being pricked by a needle.
In a gathering spot of the Sijiao in Donghua City.
With a sweep of a blue blood light, the hundreds of congregants present let out cries of shock. Amidst the surging flesh, they transformed into monsters, wrapped in layers of blood cocoons, turning into huge eggs stuck to the ceiling, beating like hearts.
As she observed their transformation and sensed the intimate aura emanating from the eggs, a relaxed smile gradually appeared on Xuan Nu's face.
But in the next moment, she immediately covered her mouth, panic-stricken and said: "This is trouble, Zhou Bai must not find out." The source of this content ɪs Nov3lFɪre.ɴet
Elsewhere, as the grand wedding began, Immortals had already entered the grand hall where the wedding was being held.
Outside the grand hall, hundreds and thousands of cultivators from Wanxian Island were also gradually arriving, quietly awaiting the start of the wedding.
As for Central City, the citizens were in a festive mood, joyfully participating in various activities and banquets, welcoming a level of excitement and revelry that hadn't been seen in Central City for a long time.
On the other side of the heavenly realm, Xiang Tiandi and several others from the Four Heavenly Monarchs were discussing their next plans and arrangements.
Xiang Tiandi: "Jiu Xiao, how are you?"
Marshal Jiu Xiao, who had been hit twice by Zhou Bai's Mixed Element Star Constellation Calamity, was lying on the bed at this moment.
Though his Divine Body, which had been severely wounded and heavily bleeding, now seemed to have returned to its original state, at least without any missing limbs.
But his face was still pale and weak, clearly showing that Zhou Bai's two Mixed Element Star Constellation Calamity attacks had inflicted tremendous damage on him.
Upon hearing Xiang Tiandi's question, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes: "I probably need another four hours to recover. Zhou Bai's Mixed Element Star Constellation Calamity not only destroyed my Ten Thousand Saints Prison Suppressing Body.
It also left lingering threads of power continuously corroding my flesh and Primordial Spirit. I've tried several types of pills, but none worked. I can only slowly wear away at the remaining power."
Xiang Tiandi sighed: "You rest here well. Zi Wei Heavenly Monarch, Bao Bing Heavenly Monarch, you both meet with the God Emperor to confirm whether his identity is genuine or not. We'll attend Ming Yue's wedding to see if Zhou Bai can really stop the wedding."
The silent Ming Xing Heavenly Monarch suddenly spoke up: "I will also go to see the God Emperor."
Ming Xing Heavenly Monarch is one of the heavenly monarchs apart from Hao Ran Heavenly Monarch in the Ministry, a neat young girl wearing a light yellow coat with a jade hairpin in her hair, looking absolutely exquisite.
She said angrily: "Li Zhengdao said he would meet with the God Emperor too, so I want to see if what he says is true or false."
Xiang Tiandi nodded: "It's fine for the three of you to go together, but remember, even if you notice anything unusual about the God Emperor, do not act rashly. If you meet the Supreme Heavenly Venerate, absolutely do not reveal any hostility."
Si Yi Heavenly Monarch said: "But what if everything is as Zhou Bai said, the God Emperor is missing, and the Supreme Heavenly Venerate still wants to incite a battle between us and the Immortals? Zhou Bai claims the Supreme Heavenly Venerate can't act against us, but we can't solely rely on this hope, can we?"
Bao Bing Heavenly Monarch nodded: "If the God Emperor truly isn't present, we would be facing the Supreme Heavenly Venerate alone."
Xiang Tiandi's eyes flashed with keen insight: "That's exactly what I'm getting at, we need to prepare in advance to ensure everything goes smoothly."
