Immortal Palace of Eternal Life

Chapter 852: The Decree is Set!

"Whoosh, whoosh~"

A streak of azure-purple escape light shot down from the horizon, instantly entering the range of Yuan Yang Sect's mountain gate, finally arriving at the peak of Heavenly Peak.

As the azure-purple escape light dissipated, two figures—a man and a woman—appeared: Liu Yu and Zhuo Mengzhen.

“Thud.”

As their feet touched the ground, Liu Yu wrapped one arm around Zhuo Mengzhen while using the other hand to take out the Messaging Jade Token to notify the sect elders.

After sending the message, he turned to the female cultivator in front of him and said slowly, "Mengzhen, from now on, you can focus on cultivating here at Heavenly Peak. Don't feel constrained or like an outsider; treat this place as your home."

"If you have any questions, you can always ask me."

With that, Liu Yu's storage bracelet glowed, and he took out a cave dwelling token and handed it over.

The cave dwelling he arranged for Zhuo Mengzhen was very close to the summit of Heavenly Peak, one of the few third-tier cave dwellings filled with rich spiritual energy.

Such a cultivation environment was even better than that of many Golden Core Elders.

"Mm."

Zhuo Mengzhen responded softly, accepting the cave dwelling token, but her expression was still low and lost.

Having betrayed her sect, with her teachers and friends all wiped out, she now had no familiar faces around her besides Liu Yu.

Although she had been prepared for this day, when it finally arrived, Zhuo Mengzhen felt her heart in turmoil, filled with an emptiness that was hard to shake off.

"You shouldn't overthink it. Just stay by my side and cultivate with peace of mind."

"Focus on reaching the Golden Core Pinnacle as soon as possible; as for the Conception Spirit Objects, I will prepare several for you."

Looking at the downcast Zhuo Mengzhen, Liu Yu reached out and gently touched her forehead, smiling as he spoke earnestly.

He understood her situation; her identity in Yuan Yang Sect was extremely awkward.

However, with his current strength and position, Liu Yu would certainly not let his concubine suffer.

"Thank you, husband."

After speaking for a while, Zhuo Mengzhen's mood improved slightly, though she still seemed somewhat downcast.

"Whoosh, whoosh~"

With the mountain wind blowing, the two held hands and spoke softly, Liu Yu sharing matters to pay attention to while staying in Yuan Yang Sect.

Zhuo Mengzhen listened carefully; after the arduous journey through the Central Domain and returning to Tian Nan, a series of events had unfolded.

This once proud female cultivator seemed to have grown a lot now, becoming quiet and reserved.

There was always a hint of lingering melancholy in her brows, making one unable to help but feel pity for her.

"Go on down."

After a moment of tenderness, Liu Yu spoke softly.

Zhuo Mengzhen nodded, then took out a black veil to cover her face, concealing most of it except for her bright eyes.

She then gently bent down and turned to walk down the mountain.

Through their earlier exchange, Zhuo Mengzhen already knew the cave dwelling was not far away, making daily communication and meetings very convenient.

"Thud, thud."

A faint sound of footsteps echoed as Liu Yu looked out, seeing a female cultivator in yellow clothes and a black veil gradually walking away until she disappeared from sight.

That figure looked lonely and desolate, like a homeless kitten.

"Time is the greatest force in the world; it can smooth over all wounds."

Shaking his head gently, Liu Yu retracted his gaze and turned to enter the cave dwelling.

In this world, there are always things that do not go as one wishes.

Next, he met with Yan Qun'er and Jiang Qiushui in succession, inquiring about the sect's affairs over the past few years before heading to the training room.

"Rumble~"

With a deep sound, the stone gate slowly descended, plunging everything into complete silence.

It was as if the inside and outside of the room had been split into two worlds.

Sitting cross-legged on the meditation cushion, Liu Yu sorted through the gains from this great battle.
