1641 Unt.i.tled
Madam Brulee and the others also frowned with suspicion.
Despite seeing that Si Cheng had such a strong reaction and was unwilling to believe her words at all, Yu Huang wasn’t angry. Instead, she said calmly, “Uncle Si Cheng, I know that you won’t believe me just based on my one-sided story. Please answer a few questions truthfully. Then, you will know if I’m lying to you.”
Due to Yu Huang’s att.i.tude, Si Cheng calmed down a little.
He sat down again and said in a low voice, “Go ahead.”
The room was so quiet that it was unnerving. The wind outside the window had stopped, and the leaves had stopped swaying.
In Si Cheng’s entire world, only Yu Huang’s voice could be heard.
“Back then, I was imprisoned in the duplicate world by the Great Dao. It was Sheng Xiao who repaired the Reincarnation Mirror and asked Prime Emperor Taixu to join forces with other big shots and professors to send Sheng Xiao to the duplicate world. Only then did he successfully save me. After I escaped, under Prime Emperor Taixu’s questioning, I told Prime Emperor Taixu about what happened to the Holy Spirit Continent and our doubts about the Great Dao.”
Yu Huang stared straight at Si Cheng as she said in a low voice, “Uncle Si Cheng, let me ask you, seven years ago, did Prime Emperor Taixu look for you and reveal to you that the three thousand worlds might be facing a calamity? He was prepared to go to the Black Eye to investigate the truth. As the disciple of Prime Emperor Taixu and as the director of the Cang Lang Continent’s s.p.a.ce Administration, you naturally couldn’t sit by and do nothing, so you followed Prime Emperor Taixu to the Black Eye, right?”
Only Si Cheng and Taixu knew the details of this matter.
Hearing Yu Huang accurately reveal what happened, Si Cheng asked in bewilderment, “How do you know?”
Yu Huang raised her right hand and tapped the corner of her eye with her index finger.
“So you saw that future through the Eternal Eye.” Under everyone’s gazes, Si Cheng nodded gently as he told Yu Huang, “You’re right.”
Yu Huang nodded and said, “After you guys entered the Black Eye, Prime Emperor Taixu was counterattacked by the power of the Great Dao and was even injured, right?”
“Yes.” Si Cheng nodded.
Yu Huang lamented sadly, “…In that case, I’m right.”
Si Cheng’s expression was very puzzled as he he retorted, “This happened the year you entered and left the inner academy. It’s been seven to eight years already, so what has it got to do with Mentor? You said just now that Mentor’s lifeline ended a year ago, but last year, my mentor wasn’t injured at all, and he has been acting normal this year.”
Yu Huang looked at Si Cheng with pity. “Uncle Si Cheng, if I said that Prime Emperor Taixu had been targeted by the Great Dao when he was counterattacked by the Great Dao’s energy back then, would you believe me?”
Si Cheng was stunned.
Yu Huang continued, “Back then, the battle with Ye Qingchen caused the cultivation levels of all the Prime Emperor and Prime Master big shots on the continent to decline. Prime Emperor Taixu’s cultivation level also weakened to the early-stage Prime Master Realm. But after all these years, be it you, Madam Brulee, or other big shots, your cultivation level has more or less improved. But what about Prime Emperor Taixu?”
“Didn’t you notice that Prime Emperor Taixu’s cultivation level hasn’t increased at all in the past few years? His hair has turned white, and his body has become hunched. Even the wrinkles on his face have grown quite a lot. But how can a normal Prime Master age so quickly?”
Si Cheng had noticed what Yu Huang said long ago.
All these years, he had also asked Prime Emperor Taixu why his cultivation level had not increased and why he looked much older. However, Prime Emperor Taixu always brushed him off by saying that he had lived for too long and had encountered a bottleneck.
Could it be that his mentor had been lying?
“He’s been hiding it from you.” Yu Huang couldn’t bear to reveal the cruel truth, but she had no choice but to expose the truth. “Uncle Si Cheng, the reason Prime Emperor Taixu’s cultivation level stagnated is that he was fighting the Great Dao day after day. In order to remain sober, he exhausted all his energy. How could he still have the spare energy to cultivate?”
“In addition, when I was prying into Prime Emperor Taixu’s past last night, I saw him go to the Divine Gathering s.h.i.+eld frequently before he died. At that time, he knew that he didn’t have much time left and was worried that he wouldn’t be able to wait for Sheng Xiao to become a Divine Master, so he went to check on the situation anxiously.”
“When he saw Sheng Xiao return after becoming a Divine Master and saw hope for the three thousand worlds appear, he couldn’t hold on anymore. He… he completely fell under the Great Dao’s control.” After saying that, Yu Huang’s eyes were red. She turned around and wiped her tears as she lamented sadly, “Actually, Mentor had sensed the Prime Emperor Taixu’s true situation long ago. That’s why when he went to the Doomsday Battlefield to check the situation, he protected Prime Emperor Taixu. He didn’t let Prime Emperor Taixu use up his spiritual energy, but he still couldn’t protect his eldest disciple…”
“It wasn’t my idea to send Mentor to the s.p.a.ce Administration, but Mentor requested it himself.” Yesterday, after Yu Huang’s seclusion ended, she had just left the cultivation area when she saw Song Ji waiting for her at the entrance of the s.p.a.ce-time tunnel.
He told me that Prime Emperor Taixu was a child he had saved from chaos. He had to personally send him off. Otherwise, how could I bear to let Mentor personally kill Prime Emperor Taixu? That was his beloved disciple who had accompanied him for thousands of years…”
After knowing the truth, Si Cheng’s eyes were already blurry from tears.
“Mentor…” The first time Si Cheng saw Prime Emperor Taixu in the inner academy, the scene of him teasing him while pretending to be a cute girl, flashed across his mind.
It had clearly been more than 170 years, but he remembered every word they said when they met. He even seemed to be able to smell the fragrance that lingered between them when the inner academy’s gardenia bloomed.
Everything seemed to have happened yesterday.
The wind outside the house began to blow again. The leaves swayed with the wind and waves. Behind the mountain, the downtown area of Five Lake Street was bustling.
The world was noisy, but Si Cheng’s world fell silent.
No one in the room broke the silence, as if whoever spoke first would be committing a sin.
