Chapter 278: Chapter 99 Don't Disgust Me Here (Please Subscribe)_6
Wu Yuemei shook her head upon hearing this, "Mother won\'t accompany you this time. The official wedding will be held in the Capital city; what we\'re doing in North City is just to let your grandfather have a look."
Hearing this, Cheng Guang\'s lips twitched slightly, suppressing a smile.
Well, well.
So it turns out that the old Duke of the State wanted to witness the wedding himself, that\'s why he\'s having me hold another ceremony in North City.
Otherwise, Qin Yanqiu, that big block of ice, should be the one coming to the Capital city to marry me by now.
As Cheng Guang thought about it, he then looked at Wu Yuemei and asked, "Mother, when should I set off?"
Wu Yuemei gently patted her forehead and smiled, "No rush, it\'s already late. Leave tomorrow morning. Your father will be back later, and he might have some instructions for you."
"But whether he instructs you or not isn\'t too important. It\'s just some matters about staying safe."
"Just be careful on your own. Don\'t let down your guard just because you have guards with you."
"When you\'re away from home, you should always be extra vigilant." Your next chapter awaits on m v|l--NovelBin.net
Cheng Guang smiled and said, "Alright, mother, I\'m not a child anymore. Don\'t worry about me."
Wu Yuemei said irritably, "What do you mean you\'re not a child? Even if you\'re married, you\'ll always be a child to your mother."
As she spoke, Wu Yuemei seemed to realize something and looked at Cheng Guang, "Oh, Guanger, have you eaten yet? I still have some food here, take it and eat."
Cheng Guang shook his head, "Mother, I\'ve just finished eating."
Wu Yuemei nodded slightly, then engaged in a bit more idle chat with Cheng Guang.
After a while, Cheng Guang left the southeastern courtyard.
Upon returning to the Million Specie Garden, Cheng Guang discussed the matter of departing for North City the next day with Qing Luan, who immediately showed a look of surprise.
"We\'re going to North City tomorrow? That\'s so sudden?"
Cheng Guang smiled and shook his head, "It\'s fine, actually. We\'ve talked about it before: after the royal festival it\'s time for my wedding."
"Qing Luan, come with me."
Qing Luan nodded slightly, beaming like a beautiful flower.
"Alright."
After Qing Luan agreed, Cheng Guang did not engage in much idle talk.
His gaze then fell on the Queen of the South Ming who was standing aside; he felt it was still unsafe for her to stay in Duke Zhen\'s Mansion.
Should he take the Queen of the South Ming with him as well?
Cheng Guang clicked his tongue.
He felt that wouldn\'t be quite right.
Forget it, just have Black Cub look after the Queen of the South Ming.
After all, there were servants in the mansion; if they brought her some food from time to time, she shouldn\'t starve to death.
......
As night descended, Duke\'s Mansion was immersed in tranquility, the dim and gentle lights inside spilled onto the cobblestone paths, casting a bright strip of illumination.
At midnight,
Cheng Guang lay in his bedroom, and without exception, the emotionless voice of the system rang in his ears.
"[In the thirty-fourth year of Zhensheng, on the twenty-fifth day of the eighth month, it\'s been fifty days since you became a Heavenly Human. You met Zhang Shunlong, and having met this True Sun Martial God, you feel that even the prospect of founding your own dynasty seems more feasible.]"
"[Additionally, during your interactions with the True Sun Martial God, you suddenly realized that he knows much more than you do.]"
"[This True Sun Martial God appears to be the reincarnation of some ancient Earth Righteous God but aside from him, it seems all the other Righteous Gods have perished. What beings the other Gods mentioned by the True Sun Martial God are, remains unknown to you.]"
"[The Spirit Dao cultivation of the world, envisioning the Proving Dao Map, seems to also be connected with the ancient Gods.]"
"[You feel as though you\'ve opened the door to a new world. Why the Gods perished, why the world is in chaos, and where the Demon Beasts came from—these myriad questions linger in your mind and will not go away.]"
[Although you have learned quite a few secrets, at the same time, you found even more mysteries emerging before your eyes. After contemplating for a while, you felt a headache and stopped pondering.]
[After returning to the Queen of the South Ming\'s side, you had more plans for the future. For some reason, you suddenly remembered the woman you were engaged to in your youth, Qin Yanqiu.]
[It\'s truly a pity that this woman died. Had she not, she would now be a Sky-Man, and, thanks to the relationship from those days, she would have been a great help to you.]
[The more you thought about it, the more you sighed. Your thoughts became complex. If that woman hadn\'t encountered the Secret Realm back then, she probably wouldn\'t have died.]
[That Secret Realm, according to what the True Sun Martial God said, seems to be a remnant of some ancient world. The Different Treasures inside are also related to that ancient world. It can be said that the Secret Realm is filled with treasures, but it also hides innumerable dangers.]
[Within the Secret Realm, one wrong step could lead to death. Even you, as you are now, wouldn\'t dare to step into an unknown Secret Realm, but now, if you were to enter the same Secret Realm that Qin Yanqiu entered back then, it would be possible.]
[That Secret Realm is called Douluo Palace, and as long as you enter wearing a Daoist Robe and without using Qi, you would generally not encounter life-threatening danger. Speaking of which, it seems to contain Divine Elixirs like the Nine Turn Golden Pill that can infinitely enhance one\'s cultivation. Reflecting on this, it\'s a bit regrettable that the Douluo Palace appeared just once.
If it appeared again, you definitely wouldn\'t miss the opportunity.]
[Three-star task: Explore Douluo Palace again.]
[Task reward: Tai Chi Diagram (King Grade)]
Cheng Guang read the system task notification in his mind, word by word.
[He paused for only a moment, and his eyes suddenly froze, as if he couldn\'t believe his ears and eyes.]
[Secret Realm?]
[What on earth is that??]
[Douluo Palace??]
[Isn\'t that one of the palaces of the Supreme Old Monarch from the legends?]
[And the Earth Righteous God.]
[Could it be that in this world, the ancient gods are all those familiar to me?]
[Cheng Guang took a deep breath. If this world once had all the gods he was familiar with, why have they all disappeared?]
[Even the Earth Righteous God who remains is only a reincarnation and among the weakest in terms of power among all gods.]
[Cheng Guang stared blankly at his system task notification. After scanning it for a moment, his gaze landed upon the three characters of Qin Yanqiu in the task notification.]
[He hadn\'t expected to see Qin Yanqiu\'s name again in his system task notification, and unexpectedly, it turned out to be the news of her death.]
[Qin Yanqiu, a woman of astonishing talent, had died during this time.]
[And she died within the Secret Realm.]
[Although Cheng Guang didn\'t know how the Secret Realm came to be, he knew that it might have appeared out of nowhere, like the Different Treasures, and then disappeared without a trace, with no clues to its whereabouts.]
[If the Secret Realm were indeed a remnant of the ancient world, then Qin Yanqiu\'s death within it wouldn\'t be unjust.]
[Even without having entered, Cheng Guang could imagine how dangerous it was within the Secret Realm.]
[Cheng Guang\'s mind churned with thoughts as he pondered for a moment.]
[He knew that, right now, Qin Yanqiu likely hadn\'t entered the Secret Realm. Since the marriage was imminent, Qin Yanqiu, that ice block, wouldn\'t run around wildly.]
[After the wedding, Cheng Guang planned to search for the Secret Realm.]
[Just wearing a Daoist Robe without using Qi should be enough to ensure his safety, which, though somewhat unbelievable, was what the system task notification said. So, following its instructions would definitely be right.]
[If he could find the Secret Realm and explore it without risking his life, it would essentially be the same as finding a treasury.]
[Cheng Guang pondered this and then his gaze landed on the system\'s task reward.]
[[Tai Chi Diagram (King Grade)]]
[Tai Chi Diagram, King Grade.]
[Above Heavenly Grade.]
[His Restraint Pearl was merely Heavenly Grade.]
[So how powerful must these King Grade Different Treasures be??]
[Cheng Guang felt an inexplicable anticipation.]
