Chapter 186: Heavenly Maiden Sanctuary
"At that time, let the National Master accompany me."
"Xie Xian Emperor, what about the treasures from the Outer Rim of the Divine Ruins? Should we not take them?" Yi Tianzheng asked.
"With Shadow Kill's current strength, how can we seize a treasure in front of the Tai Xiao Celestial Kingdom?" Yang Chen retorted.
"As long as we can rescue Tianxinzi, that is enough," Yang Chen said calmly. "National Master, I will be going to the Western Frontier for a while. During this time, the Celestial Kingdom will be under your care."
"Yes, Celestial Emperor."
"Yao Tianshang, come with me," Yang Chen said.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor," Yao Tianshang replied respectfully.
"Once I have dealt with matters inland, I will send troops to assist you in taking over the entire Eastern Wilderness," Yang Chen stated.
"Xie Xian Emperor!" In the Northern Region of Zhongzhou, at the Heavenly Maiden Sanctuary, "Heavenly Maiden Sanctuary? It occupies seven cities as its territory, and within those seven cities are all part of the inner cabinet, while eleven cities belong to the outer cabinet," Yang Chen commented. "We have already reached the outskirts of Heavenly Maiden Sanctuary."
"Yes, ahead is Moon Maiden City, which is part of Heavenly Maiden Sanctuary's territory," Yao Tianshang said.
"Let’s go. In the outskirts, there are also outsiders; we do not need to be concerned. Once we reach the territory of the Celestial Maiden Holy Land Cabinet, we will announce our arrival," Yang Chen said as he patted Howling Sky's forehead lightly.
"Yes, Heavenly Emperor." The two of them, along with three Beasts, proceeded towards Mingyue City. Half a day later,
"Halt! Moon River City is where my Celestial Maiden Holy Land Cabinet resides. Those with business must announce themselves; those who have strayed must return the way they came!" A young woman appeared at the city gate of Moon River City and called out.
"I am the Shadow Kill Immortal Emperor. Go tell your Holy Mother that I wish to meet her," Yang Chen said with authority.
"In that case, please present your token."
"How dare you!" Yao Tianshang exclaimed.
"Tian Shang, do not be rude," Yang Chen admonished.
"Yes, Celestial Emperor," Yao Tianshang replied respectfully.
"Take this." Yang Chen tossed the gray and green Shadow Kill Imperial Order. The woman in the city received it and said respectfully, "Regardless of whether you are the Best Actor, possessing the Shadow Kill Imperial Order makes you a distinguished guest of our Heavenly Maiden Sanctuary. Please enter the city; I will notify them on your behalf."
"Mm." Yang Chen nodded slightly. It seemed that Tianfeng Xue had not forgotten their alliance agreement. Soon, the gates of Moon River City slowly opened. Yang Chen dismounted from the wolf and said, "Howling Sky, Gold, go play by yourselves; it's not convenient to bring you in here."
"Aw~" "Yin~" The two creatures complained and then dashed out.
"They are all Eighth-Order Magical Beasts, yet they don't exhibit any traits of high-level Beasts," Yao Tianshang sighed inwardly. Following Yang Chen into the city, a woman came forward to guide them. Moon River City stretched endlessly, likely structured similarly to Lingxiao, and it was filled with women—no men were present, except for Yang Chen and his companion. Yao Tianshang thought to himself that if there were any Beasts here, there wouldn't be a single male among them!
It must be said that Yao Tianshang was indeed correct; once a group of people lives without something for a long time, they eventually develop a sense of aversion or disgust towards that kind of thing, leading to a form of obsession with cleanliness.
"Please proceed to Moon Season Tower," the guiding girl said.
"Please address him as Celestial Emperor!" Yao Tianshang corrected her.
"Sorry, both of you. Until I confirm your identities, forgive Yuer for being impolite," the girl named Yuer apologized slightly.
"It’s fine; it’s just a title. You need not worry about it, Miss Yuer," Yang Chen said softly. "Tian Shang, let’s follow the arrangements of our host."
"Yes, Celestial Emperor," Yao Tianshang said respectfully.
"Thank you, sir. This is the Moon Season Pavilion. Please go upstairs and take a seat; someone will attend to you," Yu'er said. Yang Chen looked around at the curious gazes of the crowd, as if they were watching a monkey, then glanced at the three-story building in front of him and said, "Thank you, Miss Yu'er, for leading the way."
"It is my duty, sir. You need not be polite. I must go inspect the city gate now, so I will take my leave," Yu'er said respectfully.
"Please feel free to do so, Miss Yu'er," Yang Chen nodded. Yu'er slightly nodded her head, then lowered it as she took three steps back before turning to leave.
"The Celestial Maiden Holy Land's inner cabinet is indeed not comparable to the outer cabinet," Yao Tianshang sighed and then followed Yang Chen into the Moon Season Pavilion.
"Naturally, the governance of the inner cabinet is a hundred times stricter than that of the outer cabinet," Yang Chen nodded.
"Welcome to the Moon Season Pavilion, esteemed guest," a man who appeared to be around thirty years old and was a Dou Zun strongman said softly. "Doudou, serve tea!"
"Yes, Aunt Xiang," a crisp voice came from within.
"Please take a seat, both of you," Aunt Xiang smiled. Anyone who could enter the Moon Season Pavilion was undoubtedly a distinguished guest. Although they might not necessarily go to the Bright Moon Pavilion, entering Moon River City indicated a certain status! How could someone like Aunt Xiang, who had attained a high level of cultivation, not understand this?
"Mm." Yang Chen slightly nodded and looked around, noticing that there were no other guests in the Moon Season Pavilion. He then sat down and quietly asked, "It is said that the Celestial Maiden Holy Land's inner cabinet possesses seven cities, but..."
"Hehe, sir, this is your first time in our Holy Land, isn't it? Our Holy Land's inner cabinet does possess seven cities but only names five of them. One is Moon Water City at the East City Gate, Star Moon City at the West City Gate, Star Fire City at the South City Gate, Moon River City at the North City Gate, and Wind Moon City in the center."
"Celestial Emperor, isn't that similar to our Lingxiao City? With four cities as gates guarding the central main city?" Yao Tianshang said.
Yang Chen nodded while observing Doudou's tea-making skills.
Celestial Emperor? Lingxiao City? Could this person be Best Actor Yang Chen? Aunt Xiang had an inkling in her heart and thought: These two will definitely be received by the Holy Mother later; I must be careful in my hospitality to avoid embarrassing the Holy Land.
"Please taste my homemade Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon," Aunt Xiang said, pointing to the fragrant tea brewed by Doudou. Just as Yang Chen brought the cup to his lips, a girl rushed over.
"Tong'er, you're being so careless. Slow down," Aunt Xiang scolded.
"Yes, Aunt Xiang," Tong'er replied, lowering her head in apology. "Aunt Xiang, the Saintess's guards are waiting downstairs. I came to inform you that please have Best Actor move to Mingyue Tower."
"Hehe, it seems I should be going," Yang Chen said as he stood up with a smile.
"I'll escort Best Actor!" Aunt Xiang said respectfully.
"No need, Tian Shang. Let's go," Yang Chen replied with a smile.
"Yes, Best Actor," Aunt Xiang responded, but her footsteps followed Yang Chen's as they walked.
"Hui'er." Once outside Moon Season Tower, Aunt Xiang called out to the woman in pink standing among dozens of others.
"Aunt Xiang," Hui'er replied warmly.
"Greetings, Best Actor!" Hui'er exclaimed as she saw Yang Chen and hurriedly bowed.
"No need for such formalities," Yang Chen said authoritatively.
"Thank you, Emperor of Shadows," Hui'er and the others expressed their gratitude. "Please have Best Actor proceed to Mingyue Tower; Holy Mother and Saintess are already waiting."
