Secret Buyer

Chapter 574 - 350: Overnight with the Celestial Lady, the Consequence of All Causes! (2)

Zhang Fusheng’s heart sank. He could understand the Heaven-Reaching Sect, but Yaochi and Wusheng Laomu?

If he remembered correctly, Wusheng Laomu was none other than the legendary Queen Mother of the West!

Guang Chengzi from Yu Xu and the Grandmaster Xundu from Douluo, how did they end up in this Biyou Palace with the person in charge being the Queen Mother of the West?

Logically, shouldn’t it be the Celestial Venerate Duobao or the Tathagata Duobao?

Just as the thought crossed his mind, a serene woman extended her arm to embrace Zhang Fusheng’s neck, her warm breath brushing against his ear:

"The third vein is the Longevity Sect, also one of the Federation’s orthodox sects. The sect leader has no known name, only known by the title True King."

"As for the fourth vein, it is the Tianmo Sect of Six Desires, with the sect leader being the Six Desires Celestial Maiden—it’s none other than me, this humble woman...."

She elongated the tone of her words with a hint of coquettish sulkiness,

As the night wind blew, her skirt fluttered like butterfly wings, revealing a glimpse of her slender snow-white waist.

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden gently caressed the young man’s cheek and then softly turned his face towards her, their noses touching, eyes meeting.

"Sir..."

Her voice was as soft as a cat lazing in the afternoon sun, stirring the soul.

As they stared into each other’s eyes,

The serene woman gazed at the young man in sackcloth before her, yet she saw his eyes deep like an abyss, endlessly profound,

Yet upon closer inspection, it seemed as if two stars were hidden within that abyss, glowing brilliantly, as if they could pierce through all illusions in the world.

Zhang Fusheng spoke faintly, his tone revealing neither joy nor anger:

"So, why has the sect leader come to seek me out?"

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden chuckled, her laughter as clear as a silver bell,

Even though she was laughing, there was not a trace of mirth in her misty eyes, only a tranquil and serene depth.

After a moment, she leaned closer to Zhang Fusheng’s ear and whispered:

"I am a gift."

"A gift?" Zhang Fusheng raised an eyebrow.

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden responded with a long, drawn-out nasal "Mm," her breath fragrant as orchids:

"I am here under the order of the Speaker to meet with you, sir."

Zhang Fusheng was increasingly astonished and probed:

"Speaker? How could the palace master of Biyou Palace possibly be the Speaker?"

"That’s not the case."

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden lazily shook her head, smoothing the loose strands of hair by her temples, revealing a slender, snow-white neck, her skin nearly transparent under the moonlight,

"I am merely a pawn inserted by the Speaker amongst the four veins of Biyou Palace.... The Speaker said he would personally visit you, but for now, he is indisposed."

"Perhaps, in two or three days, he might let me come first, as a gift."

Zhang Fusheng’s eyes were deep, his tone calm:

"What does the gift mean?"

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden suddenly adopted a wistful demeanor, her willow brows furrowing slightly, sighing mournfully:

"Whether it be the Speaker or the master of Yaochi—the Wusheng Laomu of the second vein of Biyou Palace."

"They all once said that I was an innate spiritual being born from a wisp of innate Taiyin Qi mixed with some characteristics of the cause of all results."

"The Speaker said that those who take my primal Yin could obtain great fortune, their cultivation advancing a thousand miles a day... The Speaker also said, sir, though you seem celestial, you are actually of great power, with cultivation akin to mine, making it just right to take my primal Yin."

Zhang Fusheng listened quietly, his gaze falling on the enchanting beauty before him.

In all fairness, this woman’s beauty, among all the beings he had seen, could rank second, surpassing even Chen Nuanyu, Ruan Yutu, and others,

The only slightly inferior one being the Wa Empress.

After a moment, he spoke peacefully, his voice still calm and unruffled:

"I can understand the innate Taiyin Qi, but what is this cause of all results?"

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden shook her head, her delicate fingers gently tracing the young man’s palm, speaking softly:

"I don’t know what it is either, just heard the Speaker say it’s something opposite the cause of all results."

"The Speaker said I was originally chosen by someone as great as the heavens, but later, I was abandoned... The Speaker also said that the one as great as the heavens is the true master of Biyou Palace."

Zhang Fusheng understood instantly.

The Primordial Celestial Venerated is the cause of all results,

And in contrast, the Celestial Lord of Numinous Treasure naturally is the cause of all results.

One is the beginning, the other is the end, and combined with the Supreme between them,

Together, they form the Primordial Celestial Venerate of Fuli—or one might say, the Fuli Taoist Venerate.

In this case, this woman was originally a pawn chosen by the Celestial Lord of Numinous Treasure, the Heaven-Reaching Sect Leader? But why was she abandoned?

Zhang Fusheng did not know, nor could he investigate, he merely reached out, lifting the chin of the Six Desires Celestial Maiden, his fingertips slightly cool, his tone indifferent:

"Are you willing from your heart?"

The Six Desires Celestial Maiden’s breath was fragrant as orchids, her eyes glistening with watery light:

"Someone like me, how can I have a heart? Merely following the orders of the great, even though I too am of great power...."

Her eyes sparkled with a hint of blame, "Sir, are you going to accept the Speaker’s gift or not?"

Zhang Fusheng remained silent, in his eyes, intricate threads of cause and effect began to intertwine,

He extended his hand again, his fingertips gently touching the serene woman’s brow, sensing the origin of her energy.

This woman was indeed not lying.

Zhang Fusheng could distinctly feel that within her Essence, Qi, and Spirit, there was a particular power,

Closely linked to the Dao of Cause and Effect, yet distinct from the Taiyi Chapter in the Primordial Scripture—The Taiyi Chapter symbolizes the cause in cause and effect,

While the power within this woman represents the effect in cause and effect.

"Since it’s a grand gift, isn’t there every reason to accept it?"

Zhang Fusheng spoke without expression, and as his words fell, a thought stirred within him,

In that instant,

Water vapor rose from the lake, a white mist like a veil ascended to the sky, enveloping the entire pavilion in the heart of the lake,
