Chapter 1951 - 410: Illusion
Princess Qingyan also recognized that this sword was extraordinary, and it's no wonder it could match her Blue Ice Sword evenly.
However, if her mana were a bit stronger, or her swordsmanship a bit more refined, she could have turned this sword into scrap iron.
The Emperor of Beitun Kingdom's astonishment and shock were within Immortal Bai Ruo's expectations.
A few hours earlier, when he saw this peerless Immortal Sword, he too was shocked and incredulous.
"Brother, how is it? I wasn't lying, right? This kid has even more crucial evidence, but there's no need to present it. If you trust me, then trust him."
After a long silence, the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom slowly put down the Seven-Colored Immortal Sword, inquiring, "Which sect is this young brother from?"
"If I tell you, you might be scared," Immortal Bai Ruo replied.
"Speak freely, I have the mental fortitude for this."
"Then listen carefully, this boy is from the Seven-Colored Sect, and the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor is his master!"
"The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor?"
Upon hearing this famous and prestigious name, the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom almost lost his balance.
The Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor could definitely be considered one of the top Immortal Emperors in the Land of the Eight Trigrams. He participated in quelling the chaos across the seas and was a great hero in their hearts, a figure whom almost everyone revered.
Anyone who belongs to the Orthodox Sect would hold him in high regard.
If this boy were indeed a disciple of the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor, he would truly need to forgo greed. Moreover, he would need to curry favor and build connections, for the Seven-Colored Sect is a grand sect, and even the Eight Great Palaces do not dare to offend it.
However, upon hearing Lin Yifan's master's name, Princess Qingyan connected it with something.
This matter could overturn the lies Lin Yifan had concocted and the evidence he had provided, so she said, "He is not a disciple of the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor, but rather a master of taking advantage of opportunities!"
"What? This... how is this possible?" The Emperor of Beitun Kingdom was full of disbelief.
"Yeah! Little sister, are you blinded by hatred and have lost your senses?" Immortal Bai Ruo asked.
"I am perfectly clearheaded. Do you remember the Red Lotus Secret Realm a few months ago, when everyone said it was this kid who seized the Immortal Emperor Inheritance, and this Immortal Emperor Inheritance was most likely that of the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor." Princess Qingyan replied.
In hearing this, it truly seemed somewhat possible.
Because the era of the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor was too distant, even the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom and Immortal Bai Ruo only knew of the Seven-Colored Immortal Emperor's deeds through the stories of elders and historical records.
However, how could Princess Qingyan so firmly conclude that the fortunate person entering the Red Lotus Secret Realm was this young man in front of them?
Before they could inquire, Lin Yifan jumped out, furious, accusing and clarifying: "I say, you brat, are you brain-damaged? Did I ever use this sword before the Red Lotus Secret Realm? Besides, the one who truly received the inheritance was that girl Fire Lotus; it has nothing to do with me."
"Then why has that brat Fire Lotus not come out?" Princess Qingyan interrogated.
"Then why, back in the Cold Water Realm, when everyone else came out, didn't you come out too?" Lin Yifan retorted.
"I..."
Princess Qingyan was momentarily at a loss for words.
What Lin Yifan said indeed made some sense, and she had also heard recently that the brat Fire Lotus was actually alive, not dead; and after returning, she seemed to have become exceptionally powerful, presumably having obtained the Immortal Emperor Inheritance.
The Immortal Emperor Inheritance still could not compare to her Divine Emperor Inheritance, so when facing Princess Fire Lotus again, she would have an unprecedented sense of superiority.
The conversation between the two revealed several things to the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom and Immortal Bai Ruo.
Apart from knowing that the two had long-standing deep hatred towards each other, they also discovered that both knew a woman named Fire Lotus, and the relationship between them was intricate and hard to unravel.
Furthermore, it seemed that Princess Qingyan might have obtained an inheritance in the Cold Water Realm.
The Emperor of Beitun Kingdom was aware of this; otherwise, he would not have been so courteous to Princess Qingyan.
However, Princess Qingyan's identity still needed verification, and he could only remain skeptical.
"What do you mean, 'I'? If you can't speak up, then shut up and stop acting self-important!"
Lin Yifan criticized with ill temper, showing no leniency.
Princess Qingyan, feeling stubborn, insisted, "You're just a fraud, a king of scavenging opportunities, the most inferior of people."
"Sorry, I usually dismiss this kind of childish and brainless talk with disdain."
"You..."
Princess Fire Lotus was once again infuriated, seething with rage.
Noticing the intense atmosphere between the two, the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom swiftly intervened as a mediator: "Enough! Stop arguing and let's head to Snow Moon Mountain together. Whoever has the ability to obtain the Heart Moon Pearl shall have it."
"Your Majesty, you absolutely cannot let this guy go, or else the Constellation Beads will be taken by him again." Princess Qingyan, anxious, pleaded.
"Why?"
"I don't know why, it's just a feeling. Moreover, this guy is really uncanny; any Constellation Beads he encounters end up in his hands." Princess Qingyan explained.
This was truly a curse she deeply experienced, and she believed others who had had grievances with Lin Yifan felt it deeply as well.
"Then it truly is your own incompetence,"
The Emperor of Beitun Kingdom did not side with Princess Qingyan, or rather, he dismissed this gut-feeling-based assumption.
In his eyes, was there anyone in this World of All Things who could take away something he had already set his eyes on? Not even Immortal Bai Ruo could necessarily do that.
"Ah!"
Princess Qingyan sighed, having given up on persuading him.
Because she really couldn't provide convincing evidence.
Moreover, only by letting the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom experience it firsthand could he understand her uneasy feeling of apprehension.
Lin Yifan's lips curled slightly, a person who truly "knows him well."
Fortunately, the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom was full of confidence, or else he might have really missed this Constellation Bead.
After hearing Princess Qingyan's various mystical statements, Immortal Bai Ruo became increasingly interested in Lin Yifan.
This was indeed a person with mysterious abilities, prompting him to be more vigilant and observant.
After explaining matters a few days ahead, the Emperor of Beitun Kingdom took the three of them toward Snow Moon Mountain.
Snow Moon Mountain was not within the borders of Beitun Kingdom, but in a Land of Extreme Cold.
They spent quite some time before reaching this place.
Standing here, Lin Yifan saw an endless expanse of wind and snow, but no mountain outline, making him wonder: "Your Majesty, did you bring us to the wrong place?"
"No mistake, this is indeed the place," the Immortal Bai Ruo beside him, confidently answered.
"No mistake? But why is there no mountain?" Lin Yifan asked.
"This is exactly why I sought to meet this brother," Immortal Bai Ruo replied.
Lin Yifan had already guessed something, and asked in shock: "Don't tell me all this before us is an illusion?"
