Sect Master Heavenly Access and Xuan Du stepped out of the hall. Then, the doors closed.
Creak!
Gu Hai showed a terrifyingly sullen expression. Dragons had reverse scales, and men had taboos. Now, Sect Master Heavenly Access has crossed the line and violated Gu Hai’s taboo.
Gu Hai felt anger deep within his heart, but he could not do anything about it.
Lin Waner? Gu Hai knew she was in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect. However, he had not sought her out, as she had not sorted her feelings out yet. Initially, he thought she had become the Supreme Ascendant and held overwhelming authority in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, able to protect herself. Hence, he had waited for her to figure everything out.
Unexpectedly, Sect Master Heavenly Access had changed radically after the trip to eight hundred thousand years in the past, willfully changing the old rules of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect.
A wedding three days later? Forcing him to reveal the secret of the Yinyang immortal firmaments?
How could Gu Hai fall for it? He was alive only because he kept the secret. If he revealed it, would Sect Master Heavenly Access spare him, given Sect Master Heavenly Access’s character? Even Lin Waner would not survive.
Gu Hai kept silent. At the same time, he thought about escaping. Unfortunately, the Taiji Diagram was very incredible.
How could the thirteenth of the top sixteen ancient treasures of the world be ordinary?
Gu Hai closed his eyes and checked his body. Unfortunately, all his spiritual souls and physical souls were sealed.
The deity king had the Eyes of Life and Death. However, the deity king’s energy was sealed, unusable.
His four sabers could not help him.
His mortal soul and earthly soul were sealed, unable to break the Taiji Diagram.
The True Flame Calabash, the Immortal Slaying Calabash, the Absolute Zero Calabash, and the Vine World Calabash could not be used.
“How excellent of the Taiji Diagram!” Gu Hai said with an unsightly expression.
Supreme Ascendant Hall, Myriad Age Daoist Sect:
Lin Waner hugged her guqin as she looked coldly at Sect Master Heavenly Access and the Supreme Ascendant Dao experts.
“Sect Master Heavenly Access, the Taiji Diagram is the supreme treasure of my Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance. Are you planning to change the structure of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, merging the three lines of inheritance into one?” Lin Waner glared at Sect Master Heavenly Access.
Sect Master Heavenly Access looked at Lin Waner. “The rules of the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance? Hah! I am the sect master. What I say goes! I am the rule! The Taiji Diagram belongs to my first senior brother; it is not yours!”
“Oh? So you mean that the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s inheritance through the ages is fake? You don’t have a master? The first-generation Supreme Ascendant does not have a master?” Lin Waner retorted coldly.
“What I say goes. Rules? I am the rule!” Humph!” Sect Master Heavenly Access snorted coldly.
Blargh!
In the end, Lin Waner was much weaker. The shock caused her to cough out a mouthful of blood.
“Under your leadership, the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance fell into chaos. The disciples do not submit to you. You are not qualified to be the Supreme Ascendant!” Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.
“It is not your place to determine if I’m qualified or not. The first-generation Supreme Ascendant once instructed to pass down the Supreme Ascendant Longevity Piece. The one who inherited the Supreme Ascendant Longevity Piece is the Supreme Ascendant! I am still the Supreme Ascendant!” Lin Waner said as she wiped the blood from her lips.
“Humph! However, no one in the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance listens to you,” Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.
“Who says so?” Lin Waner glared.
“We only submit to First Senior Brother Xuan Du!” the Supreme Ascendant Dao elders immediately called out.
“You all!” Lin Waner showed rage in her eyes.
Just at this moment, a woman in the group stepped forward. “Sect Master Heavenly Access, you may be the sect master of the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, but you cannot smear the name of my Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance. Although the Supreme Ascendant has only taken over for a short time and has yet to settle the internal conflict, it is just a matter of time. I obey the Supreme Ascendant’s commands and solemnly observe the inheritance rules of the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance.”
The faces of Xuan Du and the others sank when that woman stepped forward in support of Lin Waner.
Shing!
A sword light shot out of Sect Master Heavenly Access’s sleeve.
“Martial Aunt!” Lin Waner’s expression changed.
A bloody line appeared vertically down the middle of the woman who had stepped forward and spoken her mind, cutting her in half.
That woman never expected Sect Master Heavenly Access to kill her. Her eyes opened wide in disbelief.
All the Supreme Ascendant Dao disciples immediately trembled.
“You-you-you…” Lin Waner exclaimed in horror.
“I have yet to vent my anger from First Senior Brother’s death, and this reckless lass dares to pit herself against me? Humph! Do you think I’m not familiar with the situation of the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance?” Sect Master Heavenly Access glared.
Aside from Lin Waner glaring, no one else dared to speak.
“Humph! Lin Waner, since you are the Supreme Ascendant, I will not overstep. Continue being the Supreme Ascendant. However, the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance only needs one voice. You and Xuan Du make two voices. That is not good for the Myriad Age Daoist Sect. Since that is the case, you two shall become one. This sect master will preside over a wedding for the two of you in the Heavenly Access Hall, merging your voices into one!” Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.
“What? I don’t want to. The Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance is supposed to cut off all emotions. We cannot get married!” Lin Waner glared.
“You can from now on!” Sect Master Heavenly Access said coldly.
As Sect Master Heavenly Access spoke, he waved his hand.
Boom!
A beam of light shot into Lin Waner’s body, sealing her cultivation.
“Sect Master Heavenly Access? You-you sealed my cultivation? Are you going rule the Myriad Age Daoist Sect with an iron fist, with only you as the sole authority?” Lin Waner yelled in a rage.
Heavenly Access ignored Lin Waner. Then, he turned his head to Xuan Du. “Xuan Du, this sect master does not want to see any accidents happen three days later!”
“Sect Master, rest assured. The Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance will head to the Heavenly Access Hall three days later and celebrate the grand wedding between Lin Waner and myself,” Xuan Du said while bowing respectfully.
“Good!” Sect Master Heavenly Access nodded and left.
At this moment, Lin Waner showed horror on her face after her cultivation got sealed. She turned and ran into the depths of the hall.
The other people of the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance did not dare to interject. After Xuan Du sent off Heavenly Access, he turned his head to look towards where Lin Waner had disappeared, and revealed a cold smile.
“Alright. Prepare for the wedding ceremony. Make sure everything necessary is ready!” Xuan Du commanded.
“Yes!” the Supreme Ascendant Dao’s disciples answered.
After making arrangements with the Supreme Ascendant Dao’s disciples, Xuan Du chased after Lin Waner, chasing her to her room.
Lin Waner hid in her room alone.
“Hah!” Xuan Du smiled coldly.
Boom!
He kicked the door open.
“Don’t come over!” Lin Waner shouted.
“Lin Waner, although you address me as Martial Uncle, the Sect Master decided this. If you want to blame anyone, blame your master. Blame her for making you the Supreme Ascendant.” Xuan Du walked over.
“Don’t come over. Men! Men!” Lin Waner called out.
However, the disciples from the Supreme Ascendant’s line of inheritance feigned deafness, pretending not to hear.
“Go on and shout. No one will rescue you. No matter who you call for, no one will save you!” Xuan Du said coldly.
Lin Waner immediately took out a red pill and placed it in her mouth.
“Don’t!” Xuan Du’s expression changed.
“Keep approaching, and I will swallow it. I’ll really swallow it!” Lin Waner yelled while glaring.
“Don’t! Don’t! I won’t approach! I won’t come over!” Xuan Du’s expression changed dramatically as he backed off.
“This is the Myriad Age Red Pill. I’m sure you know it. Once I swallow it, death is certain. No matter how capable you are, you can’t save me!” Lin Waner said with hatred and sorrow on her face.
“The Myriad Age Red Pill? Hah! To think that you are using your death to threaten me?”
“I don’t have my cultivation, so I cannot escape even if I slit my throat. Only the Myriad Age Red Pill will work. Don’t come over. Xuan Du, was this your idea? Are you trying to push me to death? You know that I will never marry you. Even if I die today, someone will avenge me and ensure you die without a corpse to be buried!” Lin Waner said with bloodshot eyes.
“Oh? Are you speaking about Gu Hai?” Xuan Du revealed a cold smile.
“Huh?”
“I’ll tell you the truth. Sect Master has already captured Gu Hai. He is in the Heavenly Access Hall. No one can save you!” Xuan Du sneered.
“That’s impossible!” Lin Waner insisted furiously.
“If you kill yourself, Gu Hai will die too. Gu Hai can live only if you obediently marry me. You can see him three days later. Do you want him to die or live? It all depends on you! Hahahaha!” Xuan Du guffawed.
“I don’t believe it. It’s impossible! I don’t believe it!” Lin Waner felt incredibly anxious.
Lin Waner’s cultivation technique had led to her abandoning love. However, since Gu Hai broke through that barrier, she thought about Gu Hai more and more. When she heard about his potential death, she naturally felt horrified.
“Lin Waner, obey if you want to save Gu Hai. Otherwise…Haha…!” Xuan Du took a step forward while smiling coldly.
“I’ll swallow it!” Lin Waner glared.
Xuan Du immediately stopped.
“I don’t care whether you are telling the truth or not. Get out now. Otherwise, I’ll die before your eyes!” Lin Waner roared while glaring.
Xuan Du’s expression changed.
If Xuan Du married Lin Waner, he could take his time forcing her to hand over the Supreme Ascendant position. Since Sect Master Heavenly Access had already declared it, it was guaranteed. Heavenly Access would use Gu Hai as an example. However, if Lin Waner died, the sect master’s plan would fail. He would suffer too.
“Humph! You don’t believe it? You will see three days later. Alright! I’ll give you another three days!” Xuan Du did not dare to press too hard. He could only back off for now.
As Xuan Du retreated slowly, he coldly eyed Lin Waner, thinking to himself, I will have all sorts of ways to devastate this little bitch three days later.
Lin Waner only felt relief after Xuan Du left. Sweat covered her face from the horror as she fell to the prayer mat.
Two days later, one more day to the wedding, Heavenly Access Hall:
Gu Hai kept his eyes closed as he sat in the Taiji Diagram.
Creak!
The doors opened a crack.
Creak!
The doors closed again.
Gu Hai opened his eyes slightly. Suddenly, he showed a solemn expression. A white-robed man had appeared by the Taiji Diagram.
Gu Hai recognized the white-robed man. Sha. The Azure Lotus Young Master, Sha, from a branch of the Heavenly Access’s line of inheritance.
Sha stood near Gu Hai, showing a solemn expression as he waved his hand.
Buzz!
The Yinyang energy in the Taiji Diagram suddenly stopped.
“Huh?” Gu Hai felt startled.
Sha stopped the Taiji Diagram to let me out?
“Huh? Imperial Emperor Gu, it looks like I have done something unnecessary. What is this energy in your body that can deal with the Taiji Diagram’s restraint?” Sha said in surprise.
“Sha? What are you doing here?” Gu Hai frowned at Sha.
Sha took a deep breath and said in marvel, “I also went to eight hundred thousand years in the past. However, I was weak back then and had no way to interfere with your battle. Sha feels deep awe for Imperial Emperor Gu.”
“Oh?” Gu Hai looked at Sha with confusion.
“This humble one cannot accept the sect master’s actions this time. I have come to release Imperial Emperor Gu for the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s reputation and because of Sect Master Supreme Ascendant’s benevolence. This way, my heart will be at peace!” Sha said solemnly.
“You are releasing me?” Gu Hai exclaimed.
