Chapter 1089 — One Beauty, Simple and Foolish Through a Hundred Lives
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 4
"Yin Tianzi has high attainment in the way of souls. He must have tampered with the Southern Emperor's soul, casting her into the bewilderment of the womb so she can never awaken to the knowledge that she is the Southern Emperor.
The fellow schemed against the Southern Emperor, and schemed against the Tianyin Empress and Di Yiyue too, as if he bore a deep hatred for beautiful women! " Shen Mu steadied himself, forced a kindly look, beckoned to Que Feiyin, and said with a smile, "Miss Feiyin, come over here.
I have a fine treasure to show you. " Que Feiyin half believed him, jumped down from the ship onto the treasure carriage, and asked curiously, "What treasure? " Shen Mu smiled enigmatically and thought, "That this silly girl could live to grow up is no easy thing.
" Que Feiyin laughed aloud. "You fellow, you look at people so shiftily, you are most likely a rake!
Where is the treasure?
Bring it out quickly for me to see, I will not steal it!
" Just as Shen Mu was about to examine her soul closely to see what trick Yin Tianzi had worked, someone suddenly cried, "Silly Que, how did you get onto a stranger's carriage? " Yan'er and Que Feiyin answered at once, and Yan'er hung her head, annoyed.
"Why did I answer too? " Que Feiyin hastily jumped off the treasure carriage and said, "My senior sisters are calling me, I will look at your treasure later!
" Shen Mu was tracing whence the bewilderment of the womb in her soul arose, and had only dimly glimpsed a portal, faintly Yin Tianzi's Mingdu Heavenly Gate, when Que Feiyin had already run off to join the young men and women on the tower ship.
Shen Mu pondered.
Just now he had seen a strange thing. Que Feiyin was the reincarnation of one soul of the Southern Emperor Vermilion Bird, yet in every reincarnation that soul had been slain by Yin Tianzi.
And with every death, that soul of hers had to pass through Yin Tianzi's Mingdu Heavenly Gate. After crossing the Mingdu Heavenly Gate, this soul of the Southern Emperor would gain a heaven hun and an earth hun, along with seven po, making her three hun and seven po complete.
"That is to say, the Southern Emperor reincarnates with the shen hun of the three hun, and through ninety-nine deaths Yin Tianzi has patched her three hun and seven po ninety-nine times, wearing away her divinity.
" Shen Mu looked at the young men and women at the ship's prow.
They must be disciples of Yue Tianzun, very wary of him, and were talking with Que Feiyin, likely warning her not to speak with strangers. "After ninety-nine reincarnations, the Southern Emperor has in effect been sealed ninety-nine times, and her divinity is now negligible.
After one more life, the Southern Emperor's shen hun will be utterly lost, and I fear she will never awaken again. " Shen Mu could not help but marvel.
"If the Southern Emperor's reincarnated body dies once more, she will fall to mere mortality. Yin Tianzi is indeed formidable, able in this age to devise a soul art to deal with ancient gods, truly worthy of the Black Emperor.
Yet his patience is chilling, to steel himself to scheme against the Southern Emperor ninety-nine times in succession! " As for breaking Yin Tianzi's divine power, he was already fully confident. But how to keep the Southern Emperor's reincarnated body alive in remote antiquity was the most vital question.
He had only four chances left to cross back to antiquity, and on the fifth he would be assimilated into unchanging matter, so he could not guard this silly girl again and again to dodge Yin Tianzi's assaults.
Yin Tianzi's tenacious patience gave even him a headache.
More crucial still, the fellow was handsome, and few women could stay wary before his fine looks. "The man in that carriage is plainly a villain, and villains all say they have a great treasure to cheat ignorant young girls!
" On the ship, a female disciple of Yue Tianzun was lecturing Que Feiyin, and having spoken, she glanced at Shen Mu.
