I Have A Cultivation World

Nangong Jin elaborated as he guided them swiftly to their destination.

Sea Eyes are generally similar, this one possessing powerful suction; however, the present company, including Deity Transformation masters and Chen Mobai and Nangong Jin who were Cultivating Void, walked unhindered.

”Junior Nangong Jin requests permission to enter; Taixu Lineage Ancestor Chen with Daoist couple wishes to tour the Heavenly Sea Eye...”

Standing at the mouth of the Heavenly Sea Eye, Nangong Jin respectfully announced into the depths.

Waiting for a long period, no response came.

Chen Mobai’s expression turned cold, yet inside he felt a flicker of gladness, sensing an opportunity to act.

”Elder Ah Yue...”

Beside him, Nangong Jin, sensing Chen Mobai’s eagerness, quickly called for Ah Yue, confined in the shallow section of the Sea Eye to serve the Primordial Water Control Banner as a guard.

However, he received no reply after several calls.

”Unexpectedly, Senior Sister Tianhai’s Xuanyuan Lineage outwardly adheres to morals but secretly diverges, failing to uphold integrity.”

Chen Mobai reprimanded immediately, adopting a senior’s tone.

”Please, Ancestor Chen, be gracious; I’ll have Ah Zhi explore inside to ascertain the situation.”

Nangong Jin, trying to pacify Chen Mobai, gathered three Spirit Talismans to hand to Ah Zhi, which assured she wouldn’t be drawn into the deeper suction of the Sea Eye.

Ah Zhi, being a descendant of Ah Yue, upon entering could serve as an interceding voice, hopefully coaxing an apology from Ah Yue and easing the tension.

”Ah...”

But shortly after Ah Zhi entered the Sea Eye, a scream from her echoed out.

Nangong Jin’s face changed, and without caring about anything else, he rushed in with Qiu Xingluo, Chen Mobai, and Qing Nu.

As soon as they entered the Sea Eye, they were shocked to find Ah Yue with wide-open eyes, lifeless, having died on the spot.

Ah Zhi was sobbing continuously in front of Ah Yue’s body.

”Was it suicide?”

Nangong Jin asked Ah Zhi, without immediately checking the body.

”I don’t know, but Grandmother has only her body left, her Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion is shattered, and her Primordial Spirit has completely dissipated...”

Ah Zhi’s voice trembled as she spoke about her findings.

Based on her understanding of Grandmother’s personality, even if the Jellyfish Palace collapsed due to her mistake, she wouldn’t commit suicide. However, Nangong Jin’s intention was to frame Ah Yue’s death as out of guilt.

”Isn’t this the domain of the Primordial Water Control Banner?”

Chen Mobai glanced at Ah Yue’s body, confirmed she was indeed dead, and suddenly asked this question.

At this moment, Nangong Jin also thought of the worst-case scenario. His face changed dramatically, and he immediately used the secret technique of the Jellyfish Palace to try and summon the Primordial Water Control Banner, a seventh-rank Innate Spiritual Treasure.

But this time, even though he couldn’t summon it, he usually could at least sense it with the secret technique, yet now it was like the Primordial Water Control Banner had completely left the Tianhe Realm.

When Chen Mobai saw Nangong Jin’s gloomy expression as he released the seal formula, he understood the outcome.

Although he was confident in his three Treasures of Dao, the power that could make the Primordial Water Control Banner mysteriously disappear still made Chen Mobai shudder. Looking at Ah Yue’s lifeless expression, he felt the Sea Eye of Heaven and Sea was rather cold, and he couldn’t help but say goodbye: ”Today doesn’t seem suitable for a visit, my wife and I will take our leave, Nangong, my condolences.”

Nangong Jin was only superficially sad about Ah Yue’s death; the real grief was for the missing Primordial Water Control Banner, the treasure that defended the Palace.

However, at this moment, he still maintained grace, having Qiu Xingluo escort Chen Mobai and his wife while he and Ah Zhi prepared for the aftermath.

”Please, Ancestor Chen, keep the disappearance of the Primordial Water Control Banner a secret.”

When parting at the Sea Eye’s entrance, Nangong Jin made a sincere request to Chen Mobai.

”I won’t actively speak of it.”

Chen Mobai only responded with this sentence.

For this, Nangong Jin could only express his gratitude.

...

”Husband, who do you think killed her?”

On the way out of Heaven and Sea, Qing Nu unabashedly asked Chen Mobai, disregarding Qiu Xingluo who led the way ahead.

”Either the Primordial Water Control Banner or the Daoist Monarch of the Jellyfish Palace.”
