Chapter 67.1: Return Journey

Bright Moon Divine Temple

A graceful and elegant woman in a cloud coloured dress was seated quietly in the darkness in a room filled with twinkling specks of blue lights.

Surrounded by those blue light specks, were numerous square shaped jade tokens, every one of those tokens flashing intermittently, looking like countless eyes suspended up in the air.

Suddenly, a rattling sound reached the ears. It was a jade token on the extreme left that was suddenly shaking, before it quickly fell down to smash into pieces, to turn into a fine powder.

The woman's exquisite brows and eyes were then tinged into a slight smile and right after that, a pleasing voice then rang out softly. "Yin Chi's soul tablet….. has crumbled. She died so pitifully."

The ten of thousand jade tokens in here all represented the fate of a person. The intensity of its glow showed a person's life force and if its light was extinguished, it would mean that the person has died.

And the extent of the damage on the soul tablet indicated the kind of pain the person had suffered before his death. If that person had died peacefully, the soul tablet would just lose its light. Breaking into half would mean that person had died unnaturally, and when it broke and crumbled it would mean that they had been tormented to death. The crumbled dust that Yin Chi's soul tablet had turned into meant that her spirit soul had completely dispersed, and not a single bit of her presence existed anymore.

"Temple Lord, I fear that someone else's hand has a part in this. It has been quite a while since Yin Chi died but it is only now that her spirit has been destroyed. It seems to me that the other party is intentionally doing this to throw us off." A white robed man was standing just behind the woman, and he now came forward to say respectfully.

"Haha." The woman laughed softly, seemingly in delight. "Has the Dark Lord left from the Dark Regions recently?"

The white robed man was taken aback a moment, looking like he had been surprised by the question. "He has. The Dark Lord left about seven days ago."

"It would seem like this person that Yin Chi was seeking vengeance upon, in rather intricately linked to the Dark Lord. To think that he would personally go forth, it looks like he must be rather concerned!"

"Temple Lord, would you need me to go look into it? This person must not be underestimated and if he comes to Cloud Heaven in future, it might be disadvantageous to us." The white robed man asked, testing the waters.

Hearing that, the woman narrowed her eyes ever so slightly and glanced at him. "Don't stick your nose into it. Is a person that the Dark Lord seeks to protect someone you dare to antagonize?"

"But Yin Chi is afterall a member of our Bright Moon Temple. Even as a traitor, she should be punished by us. The other party is just someone from those low level lands, and what they are doing is a direct challenge to the authourity and might of our divine temple!" The white robed man said indignantly.

"Fool!" The woman flicked one of her sleeve which sent the man's entire body flying a far way out, the powerful and oppressive force causing the man so much agony he vomited out a mouthful of blood.

"The Emotion Devouring Curse that Yin Chi planted on the man has been broken and with the kind of intelligence he possess, how could he possibly not be able to guess who was culpable? We've as good as lost the battle and now almost the war! Here you are still thinking to antagonize him further! ? Although my Bright Moon Temple holds control over the fate of the lives of the countless people under the Heavens, and even when the Dark Regions today is not like what they were in the past, as long as the one man, Luo Jun Yao is present, they will never be shaken off from their position! Do you understand?"

The white robed man's face was white as a sheet, his body sprawled on the ground. Enduring the pain in his chest, he said: "Your subordinate has been foolish, and I ask for the Temple Lord's punishment."

"Forget it! You're dismissed!" The woman said in a cold voice, before turning around with a flick of her sleeves, no longer giving the man a single glance.

The slender body stood straight backed in that spot for a long while before she then slowly lifted her head up. Under the twinkling blue glow of the countless soul tablets, there was a faint red light mixed up among them, standing out from all the others.

The corners of the woman's lips lifted up, and an indiscernible smile broke on her face.
