Chapter 1949: Has her brain finally gone haywire?
Nowadays, all big shots liked to “borrow” things from newbies.
There were some who borrowed ghost spirits, some who borrowed clones or manifestations, and some who borrowed heads.
Back then, Song Shuhang’s poor steel manifestation had just been born, yet before he could even establish a deep connection with it, it had been taken away by the Heavenly Emperor along with the Sun Boat of the Black Dragon World.
Pavilion Master Chu Two replied, “Yes, that steel version of yours appeared all of a sudden, inserting a short blade into the forehead of the monster hunter. In doing so, the other kind of energy in his body was sealed. Then, your steel-self kicked him back into my seal.”
The steel Song Shuhang appeared under the cover of the beam attacks of the monster hunter, and disappeared alongside the beams. However, the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion was her world, and nothing that happened inside this world could escape her senses.
Song Shuhang said, “No, that doesn’t make sense.”
Pavilion Master Chu Two asked, “What? Why?”
Song Shuhang replied, “If it really was a steel version of me, then it should have been my steel manifestation. However, my steel manifestation is under the control of the Heavenly Emperor. She stole it and took control over it using a secret technique, and I can’t summon it back.”
If it was really his steel manifestation, then didn’t that mean that the Heavenly Emperor had just controlled it to assist Pavilion Master Chu Two in sealing the Immortal monster hunter?
But the problem with that scenario was that the monster was a subordinate of the Heavenly Emperor, and a loyal one at that. After the Ancient Heavenly City was destroyed, he had hunted down Cheng Lin frantically.
Why would the Heavenly Emperor help her enemy seal off her number one fan?
Unless… She was crazy.
It was also possible that what appeared just now was not Shuhang’s steel manifestation.
......
This matter truly made one think.
[Ding~ Your “Buddy,” the Heavenly Emperor, has remotely transferred you 10 seconds’ worth of strength. The cost of this transfer is 90% of this energy. Please check the transaction carefully.]
[Attached message: Yo, Senior Song. First of all, congratulations. You have sealed the clone of my Heavenly City’s Pioneer General. You fought very well in that battle, and you had the momentum of an Immortal. However, I still managed to recover a large portion of the Heavenly City Fragments outside the scholarly faction.]
It was the QR code Golden Core’s friend function.
The thing that annoyed Song Shuhang the most about this friend function was that Fairy Cheng Lin and other big shots could use all kinds of different sub-features of this ability of his, but he could only read the messages due to his low strength.
Song Shuhang: “...”
It really was the Heavenly Emperor!
Has her brain finally gone haywire?
No, with the character of the Heavenly Emperor, she must be scheming something.
She deliberately trapped the monster hunter’s clone into Pavilion Master Chu Two’s seal. Was everything part of her scheme?
Wait…
Is she trying to use this clone to take the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion away from Pavilion Master Chu Two?
In the past, before Pavilion Master Chu stepped onto her path to immortality, there were survivors of the Ancient Heavenly City in the Beast Realm who wanted to seize her Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion and use it to rebuild the Heavenly City.
Now that the Heavenly Emperor was reborn and trying to rebuild the Heavenly City, it was very likely that she was eyeing the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion!
[Ding~ Your “Buddy,” the Heavenly Emperor, has transmitted another 10 seconds’ worth of strength, along with the message: Senior Song, let me guess. Are you thinking that my brain has gone haywire? Let me tell you this, I haven’t gone crazy and I’m completely fine. As for what I’m planning on doing, how about you guess? If you guess it right, I’ll give you a reward.]
Another message appeared in Song Shuhang’s mind.
“Senior Chu, can you check the seal again? Try looking for any loopholes or weaknesses in the seal,” urged Song Shuhang. “The steel version of me that appeared just now was indeed my steel manifestation, and it was the Heavenly Emperor who had been controlling it.”
Pavilion Master Chu Two nodded. She checked her seal repeatedly, carefully inspecting every single part of it. At the same time, Pavilion Master Chu’s hair had also come to Chu Two’s assistance, helping her inspect the seal.
After a while.
“There doesn’t seem to be any problem with the seal,” said Pavilion Master Chu Two.
The clone of the Immortal monster hunter had been sealed, and it would stay in that state all the way until it died. Moreover, with the spear in its abdomen and the short blade in its forehead sealing its origin energies, there was nothing it could do to escape.
Pavilion Master Chu added, “With the power of the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion, we can weaken the clone to its limit while it’s inside the seal and kill it within a year at most.”
Song Shuhang said, “The short blade in the clone’s forehead belongs to the Heavenly Emperor. Is it possible that she has a way to make the short blade ineffective and allow the monster hunter to break free from the seal?”
“Actually, I had some information on the second form of origin energy that the monster hunter possessed,” said Pavilion Master Chu Two slowly. “I had long considered this possibility when I designed the seal. Even if the short blade in the clone’s forehead were to lose its effect, it will not affect the seal.”
Song Shuhang rubbed his temples.
He really had no idea what the Heavenly Emperor was planning or thinking.
He was lacking information and clues.
Even if he were the reincarnation of the great detective Sherlock Holmes, he believed that he would have no way of figuring out the truth.
“I have to leave as I can’t stay in the main world for too long,” said Pavilion Master Chu Two. This was the price that she had to pay for fusing with Skylark’s head.
Song Shuhang said, “Be careful of the Ruler of the Netherworld Fat Ball.”
Pavilion Master Chu Two replied, “Don’t worry. I’m currently stuck in the Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion which lies between the Netherworld Realm and the main world. As long as I don’t go out on expeditions on my own, I shouldn’t face any problems.”
After saying that, the entire Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion disappeared along with her.
Song Shuhang found himself back in the rift valley.
“Senior, you were on an expedition today.” Song Shuhang sighed.
Pavilion Master Chu’s hair swayed gently. “Don’t worry about her, if she really gets in trouble... She can still rely on that other ruler.”
“That’s true.” Song Shuhang descended to the ground.
The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber returned to the Inner World, back to Lady Onion.
True Monarch White Crane asked, “Shuhang, where’s that big shot with arms covered in eyes?”
Song Shuhang replied, “He was sealed by me and Pavilion Master Chu.”
Sister White Dragon silently let out a sigh.
[By the way, Sister White Dragon, when we were sealing the clone of the monster hunter, the Heavenly Emperor appeared through my steel manifestation. She stabbed the monster hunter in the forehead, and kicked him into Pavilion Master Chu Two’s seal. Do you have any ideas on why she might have done that?] Song Shuhang transmitted his voice to Sister White Dragon.
Sister White Dragon: ∑(っ°Д°;)っ
This news was simply too staggering.
Sister White Dragon’s brain crashed.
The Immortal monster hunter was the vanguard of the Heavenly City, and he had contributed greatly to the expansion of the city. When the Heavenly City had to fight, he would be the first to go up and join the battle.
Among all the Immortals, he was the most loyal to the Heavenly Emperor.
Now, the Heavenly Emperor had backstabbed her most loyal general…
“Has she finally gone crazy?” After a long while, Sister White Dragon could only squeeze out these words.
Song Shuhang said, “That’s what I’m thinking too.”
Speaking of the Heavenly Emperor, where is she now?
Song Shuhang looked up at the black-hole-like obsession above his head. After checking it out, he estimated that the energy from the Indestructible Lord’s obsession could last a while longer.
