And why was she captured? What did the end of the Saintess selection have to do with her? They wanted her to return to the Divine Hall? Why "return"?
Seeing the expressions on her and his daughter's faces, the mustachioed man knew they hadn't been paying attention to the major events happening in the universe lately! He helplessly recounted them one by one, especially the scene on the Nameless Star. Even though he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he knew how special the woman was, to have shocked the elder powerhouses of the universe so much…
Moreover… she was now the universe's most wanted fugitive. Their cultivation world had to make a show of capturing her, lest anyone overthink things! But now it seemed, his daughter and this person were quite familiar with each other?
Then, should he also scheme for some benefits?
After speaking, the mustachioed man's face was full of shrewd calculations, which made Gu Luoxian feel disgusted!
In response, Jin Bao'er was only slightly surprised, and then frowned with a hint of confusion…
She had sensed that the Saintess selection was problematic earlier, and now it seemed she was right. But the reason of drawing upon the luck of all the daughters of destiny to find the true Saintess was too far-fetched, wasn't it? And so many small worlds could remain so calm?
Also, at the end, the light of destiny revealed her face? What was going on?
"Are you sure you didn't mistake her?"
Jin Bao'er frowned, as people could look alike, and perhaps they were not looking for her at all!
The mustachioed man shook his head…
"A pink shell between the brows, captivating eyes, unparalleled beauty, a flowing gauze, on the Great Dao, the revered Saintess! This phrase has already spread across half the universe!"
It wasn't that he mistook her. Gauze was not easy to obtain, let alone a pink shell on the forehead, and the ability to use the power of the Great Dao. Apart from the woman in front of him, there were probably very few!
The only difference was that the Divine Hall Saintess in the rumors had the aura of the universal rules beneath her feet…
Did this prove that the woman in front of her might not have reached that level yet? Or… was it her future self?
Jin Bao'er was a bit bewildered. If this was the case, wouldn't she be the target of public criticism from now on? And why was she the Saintess of that so-called Divine Hall? She hadn't done anything this time…
Then, she quickly bid farewell to Gu Luoxian and disappeared from the spot in a teleportation cube.
Along the way, she occasionally saw some flying tools that looked like spaceships. Fortunately, the teleportation cube was fast enough that even if those people saw it, they couldn't catch up…
But on the way back, her mind was in a bit of a mess! She really couldn't understand why she had gotten entangled with the Divine Hall again!
The Divine Hall Saintess, at first hearing, carried great responsibility. She was just a half-baked cultivator who had ascended to the universe. Suddenly, she became the high and mighty Divine Hall Saintess…
Upon returning to Iron Star, she solemnly told Long Lixing everything, including how she had ascended to the universe!
Long Lixing frowned, his heart slightly surprised! He pondered at times, and remained silent at others…
"Before I was sealed in this place, I had read the history of Blue Star. It is said that after the Mother Goddess chose the divine race to guard the Divine Hall, she rarely appeared. Various celestial disturbances occurred in the small worlds of the universe, the flow of destiny was chaotic, and fate was inexplicably altered. She personally descended to rectify them, and for this purpose, she specially dispatched people from the Divine Hall to the lower realms…"
"This continued for an unknown number of years, until the Mother Goddess no longer appeared. After losing its true ruler, the power of rules held by the gods in the Divine Hall inexplicably weakened. In the end, they had to seal the Divine Hall to ensure their own existence! To avoid perishing…"
By the time of later events, everyone had realized something was amiss, because after the Divine Hall was closed, the spiritual energy in the various small worlds and the true energy and various powers converted from spiritual energy were gradually disappearing.
Everyone thought it was another change in the world. Even the cultivation world where Jin Bao'er grew up experienced this. However, it was the early stage of that world, and it couldn't approach the universe! So they didn't know that the disappearance of spiritual energy in the cultivation world was also due to this…
And if this continued, the entire universe would have no spiritual energy or power left. All cultivators who were not of the divine race would face the end of their lifespans. Cultivators would lose their power and become ordinary mortals, and even the divine race would be forced into slumber, who knew if they might also perish!
Who wouldn't panic?
Who wouldn't be afraid!?
Jin Bao'er's expression trembled after hearing this! She knew some of this, but she had never thought more deeply about much of it! But… she suddenly thought of something and quickly asked!
"How do you know these things? Weren't you on Blue Star after your ascension?"
In just a few decades, he knew the secrets of the universe? This kind of information was a high-level secret, wasn't it? Probably very few people in the entire universe knew the truth! How did Long Lixing know?
However, Long Lixing nodded slightly, his face filled with helplessness!
"Otherwise, why do you think I was hunted by Blue Star! Before this, I discovered the Dean's secret…"
It turned out that beneath the Dean's solitary residence, there was a very precise private chamber. It contained many secrets that he knew, and even a diary of unrequited love…
It recorded how obsessed the Dean was with that high and mighty goddess from his youth until thousands of years ago, from love at first sight, to infatuation, to an uncontrollable passion! But how could a mere demigod like him dare to covet a deity?
That's right, there were special races on Blue Star, and they were once candidate gods. Even if they didn't become gods in the end, they had demigod bodies! With long lifespans…
Because of this, the Dean secretly investigated a lot, and knew more than most people…
And Long Lixing happened to know the inside story. Of course, he didn't want to get involved in this matter, but after sensing that it was related to the cultivation world and even the upper realms, he had to care about it!
In the end, he was honored to be discovered by the Dean, and then was slandered in various ways. He retorted and satirized them, and they fought and argued. The fight ultimately led to what Jin Bao'er saw in the mirror world…
After listening, Jin Bao'er fell silent…
These matters concerning the universe were originally very far from her, so far that she still didn't feel they had anything to do with her. But suddenly, she became the only Saintess who could restart the Divine Hall, and might even have something to do with the Mother Goddess! The envoy of the Divine Hall was looking for her, the entire universe was hunting her, and Blue Star was now entangled with her…
It was… very sudden!
How long had she ascended? Half the universe was targeting her!
Long Lixing also felt she was very unlucky, and a trace of sympathy couldn't help but flash in his eyes. Perhaps… this was destiny?
It was the same in the cultivation world and the upper realms. His Bao'er was destined to be extraordinary!
"Forget it, I'll find the Yin Shi Wood Vine first!"
The priority now was to rescue Long Lixing. Future matters could be dealt with later. If they joined forces, they would definitely not suffer. After all, she had tested the strength of the Divine Hall envoy…
In fact, he was only slightly stronger than her!
Long Lixing nodded. Leaving here would be the only way to truly protect his Bao'er!
"Before that, you still need to see… something!"
