Chapter 1876: Entering the Hongjun Heavenly Palace
Inside the palace.
Chenyuan Emperor, Nuwa Hall Master, and Jing Yan were all seated.
Nuwa Hall Master was puzzled as to why Chenyuan Emperor was defending Jing Yan so fiercely, but she couldn’t directly ask. She’s quite certain that it wasn’t for the sake of Hongjun Heavenly Palace’s face. Even though Hongjun Heavenly Palace is an Ultimate Force, in front of Chenyuan Emperor, it doesn’t hold such great prestige.
"Nuwa Hall Master, I hope that when Jing Yan goes to Hongjun Heavenly Palace, the palace will cultivate him wholeheartedly. Of course, with geniuses like Jing Yan, I believe Hongjun Heavenly Palace won’t allow his talents to be overshadowed." Chenyuan Emperor glanced at Nuwa Hall Master, then at Jing Yan, and chuckled lightly.
"As for the pressures from Void Divine Hall, I will bear some of it." Chenyuan Emperor continued, "If Void Divine Hall demands Jing Yan from Hongjun Heavenly Palace, they can tell them to come find me, Chenyuan. Since Void Son died in Shelun Country, let them come confront me."
"Chenyuan Emperor, I have a question." Nuwa frowned and said, "Though Jing Yan hasn’t entered Hongjun Heavenly Palace yet, he already wields the Hongmeng Dao Pattern, making him half a member of the palace. It’s natural for Hongjun Heavenly Palace to protect Jing Yan, but why do you do so, Chenyuan Emperor?"
"Haha! I knew you’d ask that." Chenyuan Emperor chuckled.
"I’m not at liberty to disclose the specifics. But I can tell you this: whoever wants to kill Jing Yan, I won’t agree, even if the other party is an Ultimate Force!" Chenyuan Emperor declared resolutely.
Nuwa looked at Chenyuan Emperor in shock.
"By the way, Nuwa Hall Master, you and the people at Hongjun Heavenly Palace might not fully understand Jing Yan’s true capabilities yet. Although I mentioned in the message that he slew Void Son using Taoist Realm cultivation, you may think that Jing Yan used special means or had help. But I must say, Jing Yan did it with his own power, killing the Taoist Realm Void Son."
