The beautiful woman in purple wore a luxurious purple-gold robe that accentuated her graceful and elegant temperament.
Not only that, but her face was stunningly beautiful, with vivid red lips and fair skin like jade that shimmered with a faint luster.
Her breasts rose high, leading down to a slender waist and rounded hips, which her full, long legs could not hide.
She possessed a graceful figure that was both voluptuous and healthy.
Her beautiful eyes held a smile, and her phoenix eyes were exceptionally striking.
A tear mole at the corner of her eye added an extra layer of charm, imbuing her noble aura with a hint of seductiveness.
Qin Mu looked at the woman in purple with a dazed expression.
‘Hmm… confirmed. I don’t know her.’
Although Qin Mu did not recognize her, Qin Mengyu’s eyes flashed with surprise when the woman appeared.
“Aunt Mi!”
Nangong Mi gazed at the current Qin Mengyu, who now looked like a tall, mature lady.
Unlike her previous youthful greenness, her current mature appearance made one truly understand the charm of a mature big sister.
Nangong Mi smiled and said, “It is Little Yu’er. It seems I will have to change my address to Big Yu’er now.”
She then looked at the cold, mature lady in white, Qin Ruoshuang.
Nangong Mi could not help but sigh with emotion.
“It has been so long since we last met. I did not expect you two to grow up so much.”
Seeing that Miss Mengyu knew the woman in purple, a giant question mark appeared in Qin Mu’s small head.
At that moment, Qin Mengyu snapped out of it and pulled Mu’er over.
“Come, Mu’er. This is likely your first time meeting Aunt Mi. Aunt Mi and Aunt Lu are close friends. She is a member of the Great Yu Dynasty Imperial Clan, surnamed Nangong.”
“Hello, Aunt Mi!”
Following Miss Mengyu’s introduction, Qin Mu immediately greeted her.
Nangong Mi smiled and pulled out a Small Bracelet.
“Mu’er, come, put this on. This first meeting is a bit abrupt, so I did not prepare any proper gifts.”
The bracelet was small, and judging by its decoration, it was a feminine style.
Although Qin Mu did not really like a man wearing a girl’s accessory, since it was a gift from an elder, he decided to accept it first.
“Thank you, Aunt Mi.”
The moment he put it on, Qin Mu felt his mind clear up.
Even the circulation of his True Qi became much faster, without any sense of obstruction.
After putting it on, even his legs and feet felt more agile!
“Aunt Mi, why are you here this time?” Qin Mengyu could not help but ask.
Nangong Mi was the sister of the current Emperor of the Great Yu Dynasty, a woman of noble status.
It was surprising that she would personally visit for a Cave Heaven belonging to the Heavenly Unity Stage.
Nangong Mi did not hide anything from Qin Mengyu’s question.
Her beautiful eyes turned toward the Space Seal of the Cave Heaven as she said, “The Court has explored Medicine City several times and found no Space Seal. However, a Heavenly Unity Stage Cultivator’s Dongfu suddenly appeared this time. It is a bit strange, so I came to see it personally, just in case.”
Great.
Hearing Aunt Mi’s words, Qin Mu realized there was definitely a problem.
Why?
Because Qin Mu encountered trouble every single time he went out, and it was never just a minor inconvenience.
‘I hope I don’t have to face another life-and-death test. In the past year, I’ve been repeatedly dancing in front of the Jade Emperor. If I accidentally cross the line, I’ll really be finished.’
Naturally, it was impossible for Nangong Mi to personally enter the Heavenly Unity Stage Dongfu.
If she entered with her cultivation level, the Dongfu would likely be unable to support her presence and collapse.
As they chatted, everyone suddenly felt a spatial fluctuation and looked up.
The Space Seal was dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this rate, it would completely vanish within fifteen minutes.
“Aunt Mi, we will head in first then,” Qin Mengyu said to Nangong Mi, gripping Mu’er’s small hand.
Nangong Mi nodded.
“If you encounter anything strange, come out as soon as possible.”
She said this because, on one hand, some Dongfu were extremely dangerous, and one could lose their life if they were not careful.
On the other hand, the reason the Space Seal was dissipating was that the Space Power maintaining the Dongfu was running low.
At any moment, the space within the Dongfu could collapse in an instant.
Especially for a Heavenly Unity Stage Cultivator’s Dongfu; once it collapsed, no one except another Heavenly Unity Stage powerhouse could escape.
Fifteen minutes later, the seal completely vanished.
The crowd surged forward almost all at once, with streaks of light flying into the Dongfu.
From a distance, it looked like a meteor shower.
After a moment, seeing that most people had entered, the three of them prepared to move as well.
“Mu’er, we are going in.”
After Qin Mengyu spoke, True Qi surged out to wrap around the three of them, turning into a streak of light that flew into the Dongfu.
***
Nangong Mi watched the light enter the Dongfu.
By now, the surrounding people had all entered, and three messengers from the Court landed around her.
“Greetings, Princess Royal!”
Nangong Mi nodded slightly.
She stared at the Cave Heaven.
Unlike other Cave Heavens where the Space Power was in a state of constant dissipation, this one showed no such signs.
Instead, the Space Power was very stable.
However, if that were the case, the Dongfu should not have appeared at all.
“Is there any progress on the investigation?”
Nangong Mi said softly.
One messenger bowed slightly.
“Reporting to the Princess Royal, we have investigated. In the past 1,000 years, there have indeed been no reports of Heavenly Unity Stage powerhouses perishing around Medicine City. If we go back 3,000 years, there were a few, but they did not die of natural causes. It is impossible for them to have left behind a Dongfu.”
After all, being able to leave a Dongfu implied that the Cultivator had passed away peacefully at the end of their lifespan.
For those who died at the hands of others, it was a question whether they could even leave a complete corpse, let alone a Dongfu.
At most, leaving a remnant soul would be considered fortunate.
“I see. All of you stay alert. If a situation arises, be prepared to go in and save people.”
Hearing Nangong Mi’s words, the three messengers looked at each other.
“Princess Royal, those who came this time are mostly Scattered Cultivators. Even if we all rush in to save them, if something happens…”
The meaning was clear.
Scattered Cultivators were expendable, and their deaths had no impact.
As Court messengers, if they died while trying to save them, the loss would outweigh the gain.
“Hmm?”
Nangong Mi looked back at the three of them, and they immediately looked down, terrified.
Nangong Mi not only held an exalted status but also possessed unfathomable strength.
Furthermore, she was close friends with the Lu Sect Leader.
The three of them would never dare to offend her.
Nangong Mi withdrew her gaze and said indifferently, “I will not make things difficult for the three of you. You only need to rescue these three people.”
As she spoke, the images of Qin Ruoshuang, Qin Mengyu, and Qin Mu appeared.
The three messengers did not recognize the boy, but they all knew Qin Ruoshuang and Qin Mengyu.
If those two were to come to any harm, the Lu Sect Leader would certainly not let them off.
“We will strictly follow the Princess Royal’s orders!”
After all, not long ago, many sects had suffered under Lu Qian’s thunderous rage.
Then there was the meeting at Yunlong Mountain; after the meeting, the leaders of the Major Powers had all announced their support for the Seven Star Sect as the supreme power.
Even the Buddhist and Daoist factions had given their full support.
Anyone with eyes could see that they had failed to defeat Lu Qian and had been forced to submit.
