Hearing Chen Xiao's words, the nervous expressions of the girls slightly eased up.
After giving some instructions, Chen Xiao did not disturb any more people and directly left the sect, leaving alone.
After Chen Xiao left, the girls continued to chat, but their thoughts were clearly fading. Not long after, they all went back to their own rooms to start cultivating.
As for Ni Chang, she had returned to her room.
After closing the doors and windows and confirming that no one else was watching, he took out a wooden box from his storage ring and opened it. Surprisingly, there was a communication star bell within the wooden box.
Picking up the star bell, he cast the technique and it quickly began to sway.
At the same time!
Heavenly Palace, Imperial Study!
Suddenly, he retrieved a star bell from his storage ring. After looking at the Heavenly Emperor, he walked to the side and started casting magic to recover.
Time trickled by, and after approximately ten minutes, the general director finally returned.
The Heavenly Emperor had just finished reviewing the imperial edict. He raised his head and glanced at the general director, asking faintly, "What's the matter?"
The general director naturally did not dare to hide anything and hurriedly reported, "It's the reply from the scout that was planted beside Chen Xiao!"
"Oh? "How about it?" The Celestial Emperor raised his gaze and looked at the general director.
"Investigator reports, a few months ago, Chen Xiao was outside training his sacred art. Yesterday, he suddenly returned to the sect, but today, he set off again. This time, he is going to the Heavenly Mystery Manor to find a person!"
The Celestial Emperor didn't say anything as he watched quietly.
Sure enough, the Head Supervisor continued after a brief pause, "According to the circumstances of the scouts, Chen Xiao probably entered the Immortal Domain after breaking through the void more than a hundred years ago, and was then rescued by a family of fishermen near the Nine Heavens Endless Sea Region. That fisherman had raised a girl named Lin Lan, who had a pretty good relationship with Chen Xiao, and Chen Xiao personally taught her a cultivation technique. After a while, Chen Xiao left the fishing village, that fisherman went off to look for Chen Xiao, and then his daughter Lin Lan went out to search for him.
"Oh, so this means that Chen Xiao's news that ascended from the lower realms is true?" The Heavenly Emperor's eyes flashed.
"That's right, it should be true. Although the fishermen at that time all passed away, we should still be able to find someone who can understand the situation. I will find someone to arrange it later. As for this Lin Lan, should we pay attention to her?" The general director asked respectfully.
"We can secretly find someone to check on that fishing village. As for Lin Lan, there's no need to look for her. Didn't Chen Xiao go find him himself? It's not convenient for us to ask about these things!"
"Oh yeah, what's the relationship between that spy and Chen Xiao now?" The Celestial Emperor suddenly asked.
Hearing this, the general director smirked, "In the end, it's a hero who's feeling sorry for a beauty. That scout is not only on good terms with Chen Xiao and his two wives, but also with his sister. Yesterday, the two of them were reunited and can be considered to have gained Chen Xiao's trust!"
"Mm, then we'll protect that spy well. Don't leak it out easily, maybe I'll be of use in the future!" The Celestial Emperor nodded.
"Yes sir!" The general director hurriedly agreed, then took out the star bell to explain the situation to him. Only after that did he accept the star bell and continued to wait upon him.
… ….
Third Sky of Celestial Domain, Heavenly Mystery Realm!
The Heavenly Secrets was called a manor, but in reality, it was more appropriate to call it the Tian Ji Sect because the structure of the entire Heavenly Secrets Manor was comparable to other sects in the outside world.
If one were to say what was the difference, the only big difference would be that the Heavenly Mystery Realm was located in an extremely remote area.
The entire sect took up an area of over a million meters. When Chen Xiao arrived, the first thing he saw was a huge protective formation that completely enveloped the entire sect.
Chen Xiao naturally would not force his way in and immediately released his Will.
Sure enough, after a while, someone suddenly came out of the formation. He carefully looked at Chen Xiao, and after confirming that Chen Xiao was the only one there, he looked around and then flew towards Chen Xiao.
"Fellow cultivator, this place is the encampment of the Heavenly Secrets Mansion. May I know why you have come?" Although that gatekeeper disciple only had Deity Realm, he still maintained his modesty even in front of Chen Xiao. This attitude caused Chen Xiao to nod his head.
"I am the Deputy Inspector General of the Heavenly Court. I have come to visit Palace Chief Dongfang. Please let me know!" Chen Xiao smiled as his gaze fell on the disciple.
"Inspector Deputy?" When the disciple realized that Chen Xiao was a member of the Heavenly Court, a smile appeared on his originally expressionless face: "Since you are a guest of the Heavenly Court, of course we should report you. However, I still need to verify the identity of senior, I hope senior will not take offense!"
"Of course!" Chen Xiao nodded and threw the identity token of the Patrol Hall over.
After the gatekeeping disciple received the token, he apologized to Chen Xiao before turning around and leaving the formation. Clearly, he was going to bring his identity token to verify his identity.
After all, there were many official positions in the Heavenly Court, and the identity tokens weren't something that the lower disciples could recognize easily.
After the disciple left, two more disciples quickly appeared below to receive Chen Xiao and answer some questions for him.
As for the disciple, he went straight to the main hall of the Heavenly Mystery Realm and quickly reported Chen Xiao's situation.
The Manor Lord of Heavenly Secrets, Dongfang Shuo, was in the great hall directing the disciples about cultivation methods when he suddenly heard the report from the disciples below. He then looked at the identity token in his hand and suddenly narrowed his eyes.
Chen Xiao!
It wasn't the first time that he heard about this person. He even got to know him very early, perhaps even before the people in the Heavenly Court found out about Chen Xiao.
This was because long before Chen Xiao had joined the Heavenly Court, White Emperor had approached him once for Chen Xiao, asking him to calculate Chen Xiao's position. In other words, the two of them could be considered to have had a feud.
However, because the matter he interfered with was relatively secretive, Chen Xiao still did not know about it.
However, ever since Chen Xiao entered the Heavenly Court, this Martial House Master occasionally paid attention to Chen Xiao's news.
When he suddenly heard that Chen Xiao had come, it really gave him a fright. He almost thought Chen Xiao had come to get revenge.
Moreover, Chen Xiao was now an official of the Heavenly Court. As an official of the Heavenly Court, Chen Xiao definitely wouldn't dare to deal with him openly, otherwise, the law of the Heavenly Court would not be a joke.
After understanding all of this, Dongfang Shuo immediately stood up and said, "Let's go, let's welcome this Deputy Inspector General together!"
