Outside Of Time Chapter 1635: What a Good Morning Glory

Chapter 1635: What a Good Morning Glory

Editor: Atlas Studios

The Nine Sh.o.r.es Era, the twelfth month of the year 2999 of Dao End was about to pa.s.s.

There was only half a month left until the Nine Sh.o.r.es Immortal Lord resigned.

On the same day, the wedding day of the Young Lord of the Aurora Immortal Palace and the daughter of the Nine Sh.o.r.es Immortal Lord was set to take place.

Under normal circ.u.mstances, this wedding would not only cause a sensation throughout the entire Fifth Star Ring but also attract countless cultivators to come in a pilgrimage-like manner.

One could even say that all the Immortal Lords, if not attending in person, would send their eldest disciples as representatives to show their respect.

However, due to the current sensitive period, the Aurora Immortal Lord declined all foreign guests under the pretext of avoiding extravagance, keeping the wedding strictly within the Immortal Palace.

Despite this, the expected gifts and arrangements were, of course, still in place.

Thus, the entire Immortal Palace was adorned with lanterns and vibrant decorations, with red attire and festive ornaments everywhere.

Especially the Junior Aurora Hall.

These events were meant to happen in history, creating little more than minor ripples, and would not affect future developments. Thus, Xu Qing didn’t interfere, allowing the ceremonial officers of the Immortal Palace to bustle about the Junior Aurora Hall as they handled the wedding preparations.

He sat cross-legged in the main hall and continued to study the sand of time he had obtained.

The affairs of the outside world were left to Zhong Chi to coordinate and manage.

Time flowed quietly, and soon the evening glow from the setting sun spread across the sky. The rays of the sunset illuminated the Junior Aurora Hall as the ceremonial officers finished the decorations.

Meanwhile, Zhong Chi was gazing up, carefully inspecting the placement and arrangement of the decorations.

He pointed to a decorative silk ball hanging from the eaves, frowning as he addressed the nearby ceremonial official.

“The color of this silk ball is off. It’s obvious it’s not entirely made from winter immortal roses. On an ordinary day, it might not be noticeable, but now, with the red glow of the sunset, the impurities are showing.”

“The number is also inauspicious. It should be an even number. Replace them quickly!”

“And that red silk drapery over there—the l.u.s.ter is lacking, and the flow of the immortal power within its embedded spell is unnatural.”

“Change it!”

“Also…”

Zhong Chi could be said to be dutiful. He felt that he had to perform well. After all, the Young Lord had helped him put in some good words to Fairy Xiao Hui from the Spirit Grasping Palace yesterday.

According to his host’s nature, he was naturally incomparably grateful for this.

Zhong Chi sighed inwardly. He knew the direction of history and understood that this wedding was actually… a b.l.o.o.d.y ceremony.

“This Young Lord will die here in half a month… Including everyone here, no one will be spared.”

“Speaking of which, during this time spent with the Young Lord, this person, both in character and essence, is actually quite good. Although he has a bit of a lecherous side, considering his ident.i.ty, being merely lecherous… is almost perfect.”

Zhong Chi sighed with emotion. During this period,he had a feeling that there was no pressure in his life in the Immortal Palace. He just had to protect the Young Lord well.

On the contrary, in reality, he had too much on his shoulders. Regardless of whether it was his clan’s or his own fate, he had to struggle to reverse it.

At the same time, as a star, he naturally saw some clues about his master’s ulterior motives. However, he couldn’t reveal it on the surface.

He could only secretly search for a way to counterattack.

Hence, with such a comparison, he had no choice but to admit that he actually preferred… Zhong Chi’s ident.i.ty.

At that moment, as thoughts rose in his mind, he swept his gaze and saw a flaw in the green brick on the ground. He frowned and was about to speak.

However, at this moment, the red glow in the sky instantly shone brightly.

There was a phoenix cry from the sky.

It guided the multicolored light from all directions to gather in the air above the Junior Aurora Hall, illuminating the Nine Phoenixes Carriage as it floated over.

One could see that the dazzling carriage shone with a dazzling light under the multicolored light, as though it could illuminate every corner of the Junior Aurora Hall.

As for the nine phoenixes pulling the carriage, it set off a red fire, as though it wanted to burn the sunset. Its cry caused the color of the sky to change, and the might of the phoenix was fully displayed.

As for the surroundings of the carriage, there were still a hundred guards. All of them were solemn. They wore pitch-black armor and held spears in their hands. Their auras were extraordinary.

They were the ceremonial guards of the daughter of the Nine Sh.o.r.es and also guardians.

As the imperial carriage descended, all the ceremonial officials within the Junior Aurora Hall bowed their heads in unison to offer their respects.

Zhong Chi’s eyes narrowed but his face was still filled with respect. He quickly stepped forward and greeted loudly.

“Greetings, Fairy Spirit Phoenix.”

A cold snort rang out from the carriage. Soon, after the maids on both sides of the carriage lifted the curtain, a peerlessly beautiful and n.o.ble woman walked out.

The person who came was none other than the daughter of the Nine Sh.o.r.es. Her name was Spirit Phoenix!

However, today, she wasn’t like before when she appeared at Thunder Punishment Cliff, using anger to hide her gentleness. Instead… her eyes were deep and sharp, as though they could see through the most hidden thoughts in the depths of one’s heart.

Her face was calm, but it seemed to hide a storm.

Her clothes were also different from before.

She was dressed in a blue palace attire that was incomparably gorgeous. Coupled with the anger rising under her expression, she exuded an inviolable dignity.

It was as though her existence itself was a form of intimidation, causing others to not dare to act rashly in front of her.

She walked out of the carriage step by step and into the Junior Aurora Hall. When she stood there, the dignity she exuded became even more intense.

This was because she was clearly aware of her value and status and knew how to use this power to protect her dignity and rights.

Hence, her gaze, which seemed to be able to see through all hypocrisy and lies, swept past everything here and finally landed on Zhong Chi.

“Has the Hundred Flowers Palace been demolished?”

Her voice was low and powerful. Every word was like a heavy hammer striking the heart, causing one to involuntarily feel reverence.

Everyone lowered their heads in silence. Even Zhong Chi could sense the pressure coming from the woman’s words.

‘After not seeing her for a few days, this person has completely adapted to her ident.i.ty. If it wasn’t for the fact that I saw some clues back then, it would probably be very difficult to discover that she’s an outsider.;

Zhong Chi quickly thought about it and spoke in a low voice.

“The Young Lord instructed many days ago to get someone to tear down the Hundred Flowers Palace. It’s because I was dealing with the decorations for the wedding between the Young Lord and you that I neglected the small matter of demolishing the palace…”

“I’ll deal with it tomorrow.”

Fairy Spirit Phoenix’s expression darkened as she calmly spoke.

“There’s no need for tomorrow. Let’s tear it down today.”

As she spoke, she walked forward.

Zhong Chi hurriedly pretended to try to explain. However, just as he stepped forward, he was immediately forced back by the ceremonial guard beside Fairy Spirit Phoenix. Hence, he could only quickly transmit his voice to the Young Lord. At the same time, he hurriedly caught up and shouted.

“Young Madam, let me do such rough work.”

The Hundred Flowers Palace was already in sight as Fairy Spirit Phoenix moved forward angrily. The arrival of her group was like black clouds pressing down, causing the setting sun in the sky to darken.

Vaguely, a strong wind rose out of thin air and blew into the Hundred Flowers Palace, causing the flowers and plants inside to flutter.

However… the peony inside was lying at the location where the Young Lord should have been. She was dressed in a thin veil and her figure was faintly discernible. Coupled with her lazy expression, she looked very charming.

She didn’t care about the storm outside the palace at all and let out a soft sound.

“Sisters, continue playing music and singing and dancing.”

The hundred flowers laughed and immortal music rose again.

Outside the palace, Zhong Chi’s eyes narrowed when he saw this scene. Hence, he took a few steps back and no longer obstructed Fairy Spirit Phoenix.

Fairy Spirit Phoenix’s eyes were filled with killing intent as she coldly spoke.

“Erase this filthy building from my eyes!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the black-armored guards beside her all emitted cold air. As their auras surged, they stepped forward.

There was no need to make a move. The cold air from their bodies followed them and instantly froze everything in the surroundings. After it was frozen, it collapsed and turned into dust.

As they moved forward, the destruction followed.

Moreover, whether it was the ceremonial officers, Zhong Chi, or the guards of the Junior Aurora Hall… none of them stepped forward.

This was because… in the entire Aurora Immortal Palace, only Aurora Immortal Lord was qualified to tear down the Hundred Flowers Palace. Even his four disciples didn’t have the qualifications.

But now… there was one more person who had the qualifications.

That was the young madam who was about to get married to the Young Lord!

In matters concerning the dismantling of the Hundred Flowers Hall, her authority was even more legitimate than that of the Immortal Lord. Moreover, the Immortal Lord had indeed previously mentioned the intention to dismantle the Hall.

Hence, no one had the qualifications to stop the actions of Fairy Spirit Phoenix.

They allowed her ceremonial guards to continue moving forward.

The rumbling continued.

The Hundred Flowers Palace shattered into pieces and layers of dust under the ceremonial guards’ advancement.

Fairy Spirit Phoenix walked behind with a cold expression.

Seeing this, Zhong Chi could only sigh inwardly and think to himself, ‘Young Lord, I have no choice in this matter.’

While Zhong Chi was sighing, the ceremonial guards in front of him had already arrived in the depths of the hall.

That pool, the hundred flowers, and the fox beauty were reflected in everyone’s eyes.

They were also reflected in Fairy Spirit Phoenix’s sight.

All around was a dazzling display of colorful sheer fabrics, a scene reminiscent of indulgence and excess. The sights were overwhelming, with countless alluring curves, graceful and striking. Jade-like legs caught the eye, and the styles were vastly different.

Some were delicate and charming, others were sultry and seductive. Some had a pure and innocent look, while others exuded mature and unparalleled beauty. There were also those who were vibrant and full of life.

There were even nonhuman races…

“Filthy words and obscene behavior, corrupting hearts and minds. Such shameless flaunting, a disgrace to decency, utterly without honor, the epitome of vulgarity!”

Looking at these, Fairy Spirit Phoenix gritted her teeth and spoke word by word.

When the hundred flowers heard this, they all glared angrily.

The fox beauty was calm and composed. Her jade-like hand picked up the grape at the side and placed it in her small mouth. Her gaze landed on Fairy Spirit Phoenix and she chuckled.

“Sister, you’re also a beauty. It’s a pity that fate makes fools of people. If not for the fact that you’re the daughter of the Nine Sh.o.r.es Immortal Lord, I’m afraid you would have the fate of becoming sisters with us. You would have been the morning glory, looking after the master’s morning glory1, serving alongside us loyally.”

The fox beauty sighed softly with a regretful expression.

When Fairy Spirit Phoenix heard this, her eyes instantly turned sharp. Regardless of whether it was her host or herself, she had never heard such sarcasm, metaphors, and even vulgar words since she was young.

The morning glory didn’t seem to be morning glory anymore.

Hence, she stared at the fox beauty as the words the Fourth True Monarch had said to her surfaced in her mind.

After that, she coldly spoke.

“Such a filthy place and such a dirty person, remove them from the Immortal Palace immediately!”
