Great Xia: At the start, summon the Net of Heaven to suppress the martial arts world.
Chapter 147 An Extraordinary Night!
After Xia Taige had a long chat with the three of them and settled them in, it was already getting late.
Just after dinner, Donghuang Taiyi suddenly appeared in the main hall.
Seeing this, Xia Taige looked at Donghuang Taiyi with a puzzled expression.
It's quite surprising that someone who's usually elusive and rarely seen has suddenly appeared this time.
"What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, I have been observing the stars every night and have found them to be obscure, as if someone is using tricks to conceal the secrets of heaven."
Donghuang Taiyi nodded slightly to Xia Taige and slowly recounted what he had discovered.
Upon hearing this, Xia Taige frowned slightly, but had no doubt about Donghuang Taiyi's abilities.
If it is said that someone is concealing the secrets of heaven, then it must be true.
However, as far as Xia Taige knew, only the leader of the Divine Cult and Canghe knew the means to conceal the secrets of heaven.
But if the crane takes any action, it will surely inform the leader of the cult, which must be related to the cult leader.
Xia Taige couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, wondering what the leader of the Divine Cult meant by this trip.
"Could you locate its position?"
Upon hearing this, Donghuang Taiyi slowly shook his head.
"The whereabouts of the leader of the cult have always been unpredictable. I have investigated many times in my spare time, but still found nothing."
Upon hearing this, Xia Taige frowned, stood up, and paced back and forth in the main hall in thought.
The leader of the cult had always been a hidden danger in Xia Taige's mind.
Moreover, this person is extremely skilled at understanding people's hearts and minds, and is a very deep and thoughtful individual.
The conflict between the Great Thunder Temple and the Great Xia Dynasty several months ago was instigated by this person.
Although the Great Xia did not suffer any losses in this, it also caused the Great Xia's full strength to be exposed.
The Great Thunderclap Temple was on the verge of destruction, but the leader of the Divine Sect never showed up.
It's likely that they wouldn't act rashly without absolute certainty.
Such a person suddenly made a move, and Xia Taige couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Put yourself in their shoes. If you were the leader of the Divine Cult, what would you do in this situation against Great Xia?" Xia Taige asked Donghuang Taiyi.
"Destroying the Xuanzong's secret treasure will not only resolve our own crisis, but also bring annihilation to the Great Xia!" Donghuang Taiyi blurted out without thinking.
Given the current state of the leader of the cult, it will probably not be long before there is nowhere for him to stay in the entire Chinese continent.
Upon hearing this, Xia Taige gently shook his head.
"The affairs of Xuanzong are extremely secretive, and the leader of the Divine Sect may not even know about them."
"Moreover, the Xuan Sect is full of experts, and there are two powerful cultivators at the Land Immortal Realm in charge of it, so this move is probably impossible!"
Although the Xuanzong Treasure was extremely important to the Great Xia at this time, Xia Taige still had great faith in the abilities of the Great Xia Ancestor.
Moreover, if the secret treasure were common knowledge, the barrier over the Chinese mainland would probably have been destroyed long ago and wouldn't have been preserved until now.
Even the Great Xia Ancestor, who had lived for hundreds of years, only knew a few words about it.
"The leader of the Divine Cult did not act earlier or later, but only now, when the matter in Great Xia has been settled, has he taken action."
"It must be related to some major event recently, something that could severely damage the Great Xia Dynasty. Otherwise, the leader of the Divine Sect wouldn't have gone to such lengths to conceal the secrets of heaven."
At this moment, Canghe suddenly appeared in the main hall and provided analysis for the two of them.
Upon hearing this, Xia Taige immediately closed his eyes to think. After a moment, he suddenly looked up at the two of them and said:
"Lin Ying, from the Lin family residence!"
The news of the grand wedding of the Great Xia Dynasty has already spread throughout the entire Chinese continent, and various forces have even sent representatives to the capital.
If something were to happen to Lin Ying at this time, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to Great Xia.
With this thought in mind, the three of them vanished from their spot and appeared on the roof of the Lin residence the next moment.
Upon realizing that Lin Ying was safe and sound, Xia Taige felt a sense of relief.
Although he had no romantic feelings for Lin Ying, she was, after all, the woman who was about to become his wife. If she were to perish because of the attack on Great Xia by the leader of the Divine Sect, Xia Taige himself would probably feel unbearable.
The group, atop the rooftop, amplified their senses, scanning the entire Lin residence.
The sudden appearance of the three was completely unnoticed even by Yan Fei and Jing Ni, who were protecting Lin Ying.
Given their abilities, it's likely that the two of them would have no power to resist the leader of a cult who was a terrestrial immortal.
After scanning the area and finding nothing amiss, Canghe breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"It seems Your Majesty is overthinking things. It's also possible that Donghuang Taiyi isn't coming for the Great Xia this time."
Upon hearing this, Xia Taige frowned slightly, not believing that the leader of the Divine Sect was not targeting the Great Xia this time.
Every powerful immortal on land is an arrogant person, but the leader of the Divine Cult has suffered repeated setbacks within the Great Xia territory. Given his arrogant nature, how could he possibly remain quiet for so long?
Although Xia Taige did not understand the leader of the cult, he understood human nature.
Honestly, if Xia Taige were the leader of the Divine Cult, he probably wouldn't have let such a great opportunity slip by.
"No!" Donghuang Taiyi's exclamation interrupted Xia Taige's train of thought.
Just as he was about to ask a question, he saw that Donghuang Taiyi had already made a move.
The next moment, countless stars twinkled, and with Donghuang Taiyi holding nothing back, the power of the stars immediately enveloped the steward inside the Lin residence.
"This person's astrological chart is off; I couldn't detect it at all!"
"It seems that the leader of the Divine Cult is concealing the secrets of heaven this time in order to secure a way out for himself!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Taige looked towards the Lin family steward, who was enveloped in the power of the stars, and saw that he was turning his gaze toward her.
The two looked at each other in mid-air, and at that moment Xia Taige immediately believed that he was the leader of the Divine Cult.
His gaze remained calm and unwavering, even when facing the astrological power of Donghuang Taiyi. He showed no sign of panic whatsoever.
"It's been a long time, Emperor Xia Taige of the Great Xia!" The calm voice of the leader of the Divine Sect resounded throughout the Lin Mansion.
In the backyard of the Lin residence, Consort Yan and Jing Ni, who were protecting Lin Ying, immediately became alert.
Just as the two were about to lead Lin Ying forward, they heard Xia Taige's voice.
"It seems my guess was right; I do indeed understand human nature quite well!"
The conversation between the two attracted more and more people from the Lin family to gather there.
Upon seeing Xia Taige on the rooftop, the Lin family guards immediately bowed in respect.
"Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Chief Judge!"
Seeing this, Xia Taige waved his hand slightly, signaling everyone to step back.
Before Lin Dongshi could even step forward to pay his respects, a large number of guards lifted him up and carried him far away from the area.
"As expected, the Emperor of Great Xia still loves his people like his own children!"
The leader of the cult saw that the guards had retreated without making any move, as if the person trapped was not him.
"I suppose the person wearing the mask must be the head of the Zhenwu Division."
"It seems my defeat this time was not unjust!"
The leader of the Divine Cult looked at Donghuang Taiyi with admiration in his eyes.
They showed no panic at all, despite being in a dangerous situation.
