“The voting is over, so isn’t the conference over? I still have matters to attend to, goodbye,” At that moment, City Lord Lin Xian stood up at a great timing and sloppily bowed to Family Master Gu.
After that, Lin Xian stepped away from his seat and walked towards the door.
His steps seemed to be a little hasty, as if he was chasing after Liu Binglan.
“Sigh, the conference went on for an entire day. Everyone is tired, let’s discuss tomorrow if there’s anything else?” City Lord Xia Yin also stood up.
Magistrate Xiao stood up right after Xia Yin, “Farewell.”
“This woman sure has quite a personality,” Ning Family Dynasty’s king laughed and slowly stood up.
He chose to leave at this moment not because of his thoughts on Liu Binglan’s personality. It was because Yu Suo used mental voice to tell him to end the conference earlier. Otherwise, Liu Binglan’s action might really cause her to be imprisoned in Dual Earth Mountain.
While Yu Suo told King Ning to help, she also directed her hidden chess pieces to follow these leaders to leave. This way, the royalties could not make a fuss.
Elemental Clan’s vice clan master Peng Meng was unsure what to do and asked, “Family Master Tao, this......”
“It’s dismissed, there’s nothing else,” Family Master Tao stood up and politely helped Family Master Rong up.
Family Master Rong got up with the help and did not intend to discuss anything else.
When Family Master Gu saw such a scene, his face turned red with fury.
Those people were definitely intending to help Liu Binglan escape blame. If they did not leave, Family Master Gu would be able to pin a crime on Liu Binglan!!
“Never mind, our objective has been achieved. So be it,” At that moment, a mental voice was transmitted into Family Master Gu’s ears.
Family Master Gu took a glance at a young-looking man sitting on the leader seat and slightly nodded. He did not pursue this matter any further.
......
After Chu Tianmang left the villa, he noticed a trace of starlight flying past above the mountain peak in the distance. It clearly showed that Liu Binglan flew towards there.
He chanted an incantation and summoned his wing-type soul pet to chase after her.
After passing the mountain peak and onto the summit of another mountain which was surrounded by clouds, Chu Tianmang saw Liu Binglan sitting at the edge of the steep cliff.
He was greatly shocked after seeing Liu Binglan’s action. She would not be thinking of ending her life, would she?
The two times against New Moon Land by the two royalties and various major factions were really too inhumane. Furthermore, when such a huge pressure fell onto Liu Binglan’s shoulders, how would she handle it alone when nobody could help her?
Chu Tianmang watched her from afar and flew to her front without thinking much.
Liu Binglan raised her head slightly. When she saw it was City Lord Lin Xian, she hurriedly wiped her eyes to not let herself seem too feeble.
Chu Tianmang still saw her reddened eyes. He could tell the Dual Earth Conference this time was indeed too much of a blow to her. She also saw the ugly face of greediness from those factions.
“Are you alright?” Chu Tianmang jumped down from his soul pet and sat next to Liu Binglan.
Liu Binglan did not speak. Actually, she wanted to be alone for a while, but she could tell this city lord was showing concern for her, so she did not say anything.
If it was someone else, seeing her staying silent coldly like that would probably become awkward. Fortunately, Chu Tianmang knew she was originally like that. So he simply sat next to her and spoke whatever came to his mind. Otherwise, he would also remain quiet.
“The two royalties themselves have been wrapping around the human territories for countless years. This kind of sovereignty mindset had deeply taken root in their hearts before many territories appeared. Apart from major factions like Divine Sect which could ignore such a majestic attitude from the royalties, other factions had to take a compromising attitude. After all, the experts under their control numbered way too many,” said Chu Tianmang calmly.
“If this happens to your He City? What are you going to do?” Liu Binglan finally spoke.
“Me?” That made Chu Tianmang feel a little awkward. He only used this identity of He City’s Vice City Lord for a short while, so he did not hold much feeling towards this private territory.
“Probably the same as you. Unfortunately, your New Moon Land does not have leader rank experts. If you have leader rank experts taking fort like our He City or Beiming City, those royalties and factions would not dare to be so arrogant,” said Chu Tianmang.
Liu Binglan became silent again.
As the cold wind on the mountain summit blew, she felt her head occasionally clearing up and occasionally turning into a mess.
She did not know whether her decision was right or wrong, she also did not know whether her reckless behavior would make the entire New Moon Land fall into a dead end.
She was thinking whether she should listen to Yu Suo and compromise temporarily. Then, they would reobtain the land once they became strong enough.
However, when would that be? The original New Moon Land citizens would be scattered all over the world. How should she call them and gather them again?
Would the Holy Region in the palace become a mess? Those bandits would never conduct maintenance to the Holy Region. They would only rob and snatch to their hearts’ content.
“Relax, no matter what your choice is, I will do my best to help you,” said Chu Tianmang in a serious tone as he tapped Liu Binglan’s shoulder.
“Thank you,” Liu Binglan felt a trace of warmth in her heart. Her helpless and isolated feeling also faded off slightly.
Liu Binglan noticed this He City’s Vice City Lord never took his eyes off her. That kind of gaze caused Liu Binglan to feel a little uncomfortable. She turned away her own gaze in panic.
Chu Tianmang did not shift away his gaze. No matter what, she was his wife. Seeing her in tears would not make him feel good. He wanted to hug her and console her, but it would be unsuitable.
After so many years, Chu Tianmang was unsure if she would still acknowledge that they were married couples. Worse still, if she saw him, she would surely carry some unpacifiable grudge.
Furthermore, Liu Binglan was already shouldering a heavy burden. Chu Tianmang did not dare to let her shoulder his portion of burden. Fortunately, this He City’s Vice City Lord identity allowed him to gain a chance to secretly get close to her and help her.
The two of them sat on the edge of the cliff. They did not exchange words much. They were both thinking about the heavy burden they shouldered respectively. They would occasionally converse a little to brighten up the mood albeit slightly......
Meanwhile, another two people silently watched over them far away from that mountain summit.
One was a handsome man in snow white clothes, the other was a man with white fringes.
Xiao Xueang stood there and did not move forward for a long time.
He was too slow. He knew that if he wanted to open up the heart of that ice beauty, he had to appear at the moment she needed help the most. Unfortunately, he was too slow. Someone chased after her without any hesitation the moment she left. Xiao Xueang also wanted to do that, but that last trace of hesitation caused him to fail.
Seeing the two people sitting together on the mountain summit in the distance, Xiao Xueang thought over many things.
However, he was confused why that Hidden Pupil Royalty’s Family Master Tao also chased after her. Furthermore, he was being so secretive that he did not want anyone else to know.
“Do you like her?” asked Family Master Tao calmly as he looked at Xiao Xueang.
“Favorable impression,” Xiao Xueang did not try to dodge the question.
Meeting with Liu Binglan was purely out of coincidence. It was at the Territory Institution, Xiao Xueang was personally handling a territorial conflict case.
At that time, he saw her. She was cold as ice, silent as water, beautiful as flower. At that moment, Xiao Xueang felt an indescribably feeling towards this woman.
Afterwards, Xiao Xueang often appeared in the Territory Institution.
Xiao Xueang was Divine Sect’s Chief Magistrate. He was the most respectable expert amongst human leaders. There were not many amongst the human race who could fight evenly against him.
Unfortunately, becoming unparalleled in a certain aspect would mean a great deficit in another aspect. He actually did not really know how to pursue his feelings. Just like a while ago, he should have been the first to leave his seat after Liu Binglan left. However, he hesitated. He considered his role of representing Divine Sect, considered his identity as a Magistrate, considered many other things......
Feelings could not be mixed too much into some matters in the first place, that would only defile the perfectness of the originally pure things. He admired He City’s Vice City Lord for chasing after Liu Binglan without considering the consequences.
“Why are you here?” asked Magistrate Xiao as he looked at Family Master Tao.
Family Master Tao watched Liu Binglan from afar and sighed, “She should not have been in New Moon Land. She should be in my position and order others to make the hard choices instead of getting ordered like that.”
Magistrate Xiao looked at Family Master Tao and was full of questions.
Family Master Tao continued after a long while, “She is a member of our royalty. You should have seen her eyes.”
Magistrate Xiao was startled for a moment. He then recalled Liu Binglan’s eyes were certainly very similar to Hidden Pupil Royalty. When he saw her for the first time, he actually thought she was a woman from Hidden Pupil Royalty.
“Is she your daughter?” asked Magistrate Xiao with a tone of disbelief.
Family Master Tao nodded slightly.
“Madam Qin and you were in love and had a daughter?” Magistrate Xiao then remembered a rumor related to the royalty long ago.
“Yes,” Family Master Tao nodded again.
Family Master Tao believed Magistrate Xiao would not leak this information. Also, some things could not be hidden forever. The truth would eventually surface one day.
“Then, does Heaven Palace really exist??” asked Magistrate Xiao.
Family Master Tao looked at Xiao Xueang, then at Liu Binglan, and nodded after a long while, “It exists.”
It exists!
Such a short line revealed such an astonishing secret! Xiao Xueang looked at Family Master Tao, his heart was in a violent turmoil.
The legendary Heaven Palace actually truly existed!
