Chapter 79: Diary, Less Sycophancy, More Practical Work!
Azure Prefecture, Heavenly Storm Realm.
The final resting place of the Eternal Emperor!
This news, spoken by the Destiny Sovereign, stunned everyone present.
Utterly shocked.
Had they finally found traces of the Eternal Emperor?
Ye Xi and Que Ruyi and the others all held their breath, feeling an indescribable complexity in their hearts.
They hoped this news was true.
But they also wished it was false, for Lin Feng would be at his most vulnerable during his long sleep.
If the Destiny Sovereign found him, it would be extremely dangerous.
Being forced to wake up prematurely could have significant consequences, which Que Ruyi and the others did not wish to see.
Though they were very curious about Lin Feng’s situation.
They yearned for answers!
However, if this news was detrimental to him, they preferred to wait.
Since the Destiny Sovereign said so, it couldn’t be groundless.
Ye Xi’s face darkened, with killing intent gleaming in his eyes as he stared intently at the Destiny Sovereign above the void.
The Heavenly Punishment Sovereign ignored everyone’s reactions and calmly said,
“Make all preparations.”
“I can confirm that the Eternal Emperor last stayed in the Heavenly Storm Realm, but the exact location remains unknown!”
He paused and continued, “That works out well. There’s no need for further probing. Use all your strength and decide the outcome once and for all.”
“The Heavenly Punishment Sovereign gives you one last chance, Ye Xi. Show me all your cards.”
After these words, the scene fell silent.
Only the sound of the mountain breeze rustling through the trees could be heard in the wilderness.
The Heavenly Punishment Sovereign and Jiang Wujì were filled with joy.
The Eternal Emperor had finally been found!
“He is the root of all rebellion. Solving him will resolve all problems!” thought the Heavenly Punishment Sovereign.
Jiang Wujì was similarly excited but also a bit worried. They could only confirm that he was in the Heavenly Storm Realm…
But that area was vast.
Even if they used all their power to search, it would take considerable time and effort to find him.
Still, finding him was just a matter of time.
Ye Xi remained silent for a while, took a deep breath, and looked at the Heavenly Punishment Sovereign with a slight smile, “This time, you’re lucky!”
The Heavenly Punishment Sovereign snorted coldly and disappeared into the Evil Eye of the Alien Dao.
Jiang Wujì and the others dared not stay any longer. They each led their troops, arriving and departing hastily.
Soon, the once bustling mountains became much quieter.
Ye Xi sighed, his eyes flashing with determination. The appearance of the Destiny Sovereign was beyond his calculations.
The news that his master had been found disrupted all his plans.
Previously, Ye Xi intended to minimize losses by gradually destroying his opponent’s strength.
This way, he wouldn’t expose too many of his cards prematurely.
And he could keep the losses to a minimum.
Because in Ye Xi’s view, whether it was the current Jiang family or the so-called four sovereigns…
They were merely pawns on the surface.
Their real opponents were hiding in the shadows, manipulating everything from behind the scenes. Exposing too much too soon would be highly disadvantageous.
“If my master is truly found, we have no choice but to fight to the d*ath, regardless of the cost!”
Ye Xi thought back and forth; there seemed to be no better solution.
This was a battle between destruction and protection!
No matter what, they couldn’t let Lin Feng fall into crisis. He had to abandon his previous plans.
Prepare for the decisive battle.
This was also why the Heavenly Punishment Sovereign deliberately revealed this news.
It couldn’t be hidden anyway.
Using the power of the Jiang family and other ancient clans to search the Heavenly Storm Realm would definitely not escape Ye Xi’s notice.
Moreover, the Heavenly Punishment Sovereign was calculating.
Ye Xi narrowed his eyes slightly and said solemnly, “He wants to use this opportunity to wipe us out completely!”
“This is undoubtedly the most efficient method.”
At this moment, Que Ruyi and Ye Qingge approached, their faces heavy.
Qing Dai, however, looked somewhat troubled.
Others were empresses and disciples, discussing together, which was normal.
What was she doing staying behind?
Qing Dai thought about it, but her body didn’t listen to her. She angrily cursed herself in her heart, “Don’t forget, you came here to seek revenge!”
Another voice echoed in her mind, “You can also repay kindness!”
“The humiliation cannot be forgotten!”
“The enlightenment must not be forgotten!”
“Looks like you’ve forgotten your pain and gained some arrogance, haven’t you?”
“…”
Qing Dai’s mind was in turmoil, and she suddenly felt a surge of anger, letting out a roar.
She stomped her foot forcefully!
Boom!
The earth shook violently, and the surrounding mountains trembled as if a giant dragon was turning over.
Suddenly, flying beasts were startled and flew off into the sky.
Ye Xi and the others were discussing their next plan when this sudden stomp left them bewildered.
Ye Qingge looked puzzled and asked, “What happened?”
Que Ruyi and the Purple Paulownia Great Emperor exchanged glances. Even though they had witnessed Qing Dai’s ‘power,’ they were still surprised.
Her strength was indeed astonishing.
For a moment, they couldn’t help but speculate what kind of creature she was.
Qing Dai felt everyone’s gazes, becoming even more embarrassed. After hesitating for a long time, she softly said,
“It’s nothing, just swatting a mosquito!”

“Swatting a mosquito?”
Ye Qingge and the others looked speechless but didn’t ask further.
There was a sense of chaos.
In the distance, Great Elder Wei Yuan of the Jade Pool Sacred Land and Commander Zhao Shanhe of the Xuan Bird Guard exchanged glances.
Wei Yuan smiled bitterly, “Is this really swatting a mosquito? It must be a world-destroying demon mosquito! I might not even be able to withstand this blow!”
Zhao Shanhe nodded repeatedly.
Time slowly passed…
After another hour, Que Ruyi and Ye Qingge and the others dispersed.
Both sides went their separate ways.
Given the gravity of the situation, they needed to start making full preparations immediately.
The only good news was that the specific location of Lin Feng was still unknown to the other side.
Whoever could find it first would be crucial.
Therefore, time was extremely tight, and no moment could be wasted.
On the mountaintop.
The Purple Paulownia Great Emperor looked at Ye Xi and slowly said, “Next, I will go to the Heavenly Storm Realm in Azure Prefecture. Perhaps I can find some clues.”
“What are your plans?”
Ye Xi looked far into the distance, at the blue sky and white clouds, before saying,
“I’m going to the Abyssal Sea. There is a seal left by my master there!”
He paused and explained, “If we are to have a decisive battle, I must ensure the enemy’s retreat is blocked.”
The Purple Paulownia Great Emperor, hidden in the black mist, nodded.
Not long after, Ye Xi bid farewell to his master’s wife.
With Hua Hongyi, he soared into the sky and left this place.
Almost simultaneously, the black mist transformed into a rainbow and vanished into the horizon at an incredibly shocking speed.

Liyue Celestial Dynasty!
In the Hall of Immortals, upon returning, Ye Qingge immediately issued an imperial decree.
“Zhao Shanhe!”
Commander Zhao Shanhe of the Xuan Bird Guard stepped forward and respectfully replied, “I am here!”
Ye Qingge’s tone was slightly cold as she said, “I order you to lead the elite forces of the Xuan Bird Guard to immediately head to the Heavenly Storm Realm in Azure Prefecture.”
“Search for any clues about the Eternal Emperor.”
Zhao Shanhe replied solemnly, “I obey the decree!”
Shortly afterward, within the Liyue Celestial Dynasty, the Xuan Bird Guard let out cries as thousands of elite troops set out.

Jade Pool Sacred Land.
Great Elder Wei Yuan volunteered eagerly and said,
“Sacred Sovereign, this matter is of great importance. This time, I will personally go to Azure Prefecture as a vanguard!”
Que Ruyi frowned slightly, showing hesitation.
Great Elder was certainly a suitable candidate, but he was the Great Elder of the Sacred Land.
Originally, she wanted to send other elders first.
Later, Que Ruyi herself would definitely go personally, so having the Great Elder remain in the Sacred Land to oversee things would be worry-free.
After some consideration, Que Ruyi nodded and said, “Alright, I entrust this task to the Great Elder!”
Wei Yuan stood tall and guaranteed, “Sacred Sovereign, rest assured. Wei Yuan will do his utmost.”
Que Ruyi didn’t say anything more.
Wei Yuan’s abilities and strength were beyond question.
After bidding farewell to Que Ruyi,
Wei Yuan thought to himself, “Since the Eternal Emperor is sleeping in the Heavenly Storm Realm, it is highly likely that the entrance to the Blue Star is within it!”
“This time, I must find it!”
At the same time, the forces under the Heavenly Punishment Sovereign, including the Jiang family, Hua family, and others, were mobilizing troops.
The strongest elites were being dispatched to the Heavenly Storm Realm in Azure Prefecture.
Jiang Family Compound.
Before departure, Commander Chu Jiang of the Night Robe Guard assured Jiang Wujì,
“Old Ancestor, as long as I, Chu Jiang, am here, I guarantee that everything in the Heavenly Storm Realm will be under your control!”
Jiang Wujì was delighted upon hearing this and then turned to look at another elder of the Jiang family, instructing,
“Jiang Wang, although you have the highest cultivation…”
“But this journey must follow Commander Chu Jiang’s orders, and you must ensure his safety!”
Jiang Wang’s eyes flickered with a hint of helplessness, but he respectfully replied, “Old Ancestor, rest assured. With me around, Commander Chu Jiang will be safe.”
As a member of the main branch of the Jiang family and a late-stage Great Transcendence cultivator, he had to follow the orders of an external person at the Conjunction stage.
This was unique throughout the entire cultivation world!
Chu Jiang knelt down and loudly declared, “Old Ancestor, your wisdom is unparalleled. We will surely live up to your expectations!”
The other members of the Night Robe Guard hurriedly followed suit and knelt down.
Naturally, Jiang Wang and the other family members didn’t want to stand out, so they gritted their teeth and knelt down as well, feeling aggrieved.
Jiang Wujì frowned and, while helping Chu Jiang up, instructed,
“Less sycophancy, more practical work!”
“If there are any difficulties, let Elder Jiang Wang handle them!”
Jiang Wang was speechless, “…”
Moments later, the Jiang family Night Robe Guard, under Chu Jiang’s leadership, rushed towards the Azure Prefecture with formidable momentum.
Days passed quickly.
In this tense situation, the time for the publication of the Emperor’s diary arrived unnoticed.
On the transmission arrays across the Nine States, light screens lit up.
Under everyone’s expectant gaze, lines of text slowly appeared.
Many had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
The entire cultivation world wanted to know what the Eternal Emperor did after infiltrating the Jiang family.
How did he climb to become the second manager?
Were there any secrets the Jiang family was hiding?
Everyone was eagerly anticipating this moment, though only Jiang Wujì was suffering immensely, gritting his teeth in frustration.
Yet, he was helpless…
