Chapter 275 - 275 I’m Your Lord Holy Maiden’s Lover
Han Tianyi’s mind went blank for a moment.
For a man who had a one-sided love for so many years, he had almost regarded the fleeting glimpse of that young figure as the guiding light of his life. From the moment the figure appeared at the Wuyin Cliff, Han Tianyi even thought that God had finally heard his plea and was finally going to fulfill his wish. He was as ecstatic as he was at that time. At this moment, the anger in his heart overwhelmed his rationality, and he subconsciously asked angrily, “Who are you? Why are you in the Holy Messenger’s room?”
Of course, as soon as he opened his mouth, his mind immediately began to cool down. He calmed down after he finished speaking. However, the words have been spoken, and there was no way for him to take back what he had said.
Han Tianyi’s heart skipped a beat after he calmed down. He could not help but feel a tinge of regret.
It was not as if the Holy Messenger’s followers were only female, so it was normal for there to be males. Furthermore, Xue Yan and Su Lanfeng had been coming in and out frequently these past few days, so they definitely knew about it. Furthermore, it was only natural for the higher-ups of the demonic sect to be a little arrogant, so he could not be certain that there was an unusual relationship between them.
However, before Han Tianyi could open his mouth to cover up and explain, the man inside spoke again.
Liu Yuan was unperturbed, but his words were shocking. “Me? I’m your Lord Holy Maiden’s lover.”
They had been hiding for half a month now. It was a pleasure to see the Jade Mirage Sect burn themselves in the fire instead of winning at the beginning. In a few days, the trusted aides of the Netherworld would be gathered here, and the search for the Nirvana Secret Realm would be almost complete.
At that time, it would be time to flip the entire Jade Mirage Sect over and shuffle the cards.
At this moment, when everything was ready, Liu Yuan felt relaxed. It would be a waste not to play this game. Anyway, Xue Yan’s counterattack was almost ready. This guy would be buried in the Spirit Transformation River along with Wuyin Cliff. What he said now would not be leaked to others.
Han Tianyi, who was originally burning with anger, was stunned. Then, his liver and guts trembled. He said in a trembling voice, “Do you not want to live? The Holy Maiden must maintain her pure body for the God of Allheaven. Are you crazy? How dare you speak like this in front of the Holy Messenger? Who gave you the courage?”
He was really frightened. He looked around to make sure there was no one else around, and then slowly let out a sigh of relief. But the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. If someone had heard what he said, not only would he die, but the entire Wuyin Cliff might have been erased. He was even more furious. With fire in his eyes, he rushed into the courtyard and shouted, “Who the hell are you?!”
No one in the Holy Church would dare to make such a joke about the Holy Maiden. The Holy Maiden was so kind and holy that she could not be profaned by mortals. Moreover, the terrifying rumors of millions of corpses and rivers of blood and the cruel means of the Holy Church were even more awe-inspiring.
Although there was a rule that ‘seeing the Holy Messenger was like seeing the Holy Maiden’, the difference between the two was like that of a hamster and an old dragon. There was no comparison at all.
Han Tianyi yearned for the Holy Messenger, but when he thought of the Holy Messenger and the woman named Pihuan Luo, he only felt a chill in his heart. He wanted to kneel down and shut up.
Just like more than a decade ago, his father, Elder Han, led him to ask get instructions from the Holy Maiden. There was a process of reporting before the formal conversation began. He remembered very clearly that his father used the most strength in his life to press his head to the floor. Of course, he also did the same posture and then waited silently… It was so quiet that they could even hear their own breathing. Everyone around them knelt on the ground.
But now, an ignorant fellow dared to say such reckless words?
The Holy Maiden had to maintain her chaste, which was a well-known fact in the Holy Church. No one would associate the word ‘lover’ with Pihuan Luo, so the person in the room was definitely not from the Holy Church! Could it be… Was an assassin holding the Holy Messenger hostage?
Han Tianyi felt like he had found out the truth. He immediately released his divine senses and scanned the room.
Bang! Before he could take a step, his divine sense was blocked.
Before Han Tianyi could react, the invisible barrier had already turned into a tide and rolled back. His divine sense was instantly scattered like a grain of sand in the tide. He could not resist at all.
Then, the barrier instantly turned into a sharp sword and stabbed into his brain. When he screamed in pain, Han Tianyi finally realized that the barrier was the opponent’s divine sense!
“How can it be so powerful? This power is at least at the Form Synthesis stage. The Masters of this level in the sect have long gone to the Northern battlefield…”
As the thought flashed through his mind, Han Tianyi was sent flying by the spiritual force that came after. He landed in the forest by the cliff, looking very miserable.
He crawled up with a face full of shock, his heart at a loss.
Although Liu Yuan was considered a weakling among his wives, he was an absolute master in the eyes of an NPC who did not even deserve to have a name in the original game. Everything was built on the basis of strength, so Han Tianyi suddenly had a different understanding of his words.
“Your… Your Excellency…”
Han Tianyi spoke again carefully. He suddenly felt that he had been too reckless. Although the Holy Maiden was powerful, her methods were bloody and cruel. She was also very arbitrary in the sect. There were still some very senior elders in the sect who were very dissatisfied with this, but they had not had the chance to vent their anger.
That’s right, how could the Holy Messenger travel without the protection of an elder?
“Eh? What is Tianyi doing here?” A surprised female voice suddenly came over, and then a beautiful middle-aged woman came from the corner. She looked at his dusty face and felt a little strange.
“Elder Su, I was just about to visit the Holy Messenger… But I was rejected.” Han Tianyi was still very polite to Su Lanfeng. After all, she was an elder who knew his father and treated him like a junior.
He hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, “The one inside is…”
Su Lanfeng was stunned for a moment before her smiling expression turned serious. “Since you already know, you should know what to say and what not to say.”
Su Lanfeng was naturally referring to Netherworld. However, to Han Tianyi, it sounded like she was referring to Liu Yuan. His heart trembled and he was instantly stunned. Then, he felt a great sense of grief. If that was the case, did that not mean that this elder was against him pursuing the Holy Messenger? Perhaps she thought that he was not worthy of the Holy Messenger, or perhaps she simply did not care about him.
Han Tianyi was unwilling to give up, but even his father would have to consider an elder of this level, let alone him. There was no hope.
There was a metallic taste in his throat. It was the internal injury he had just suffered. However, he still had a brighter future. If he offended an elder because of this…
“Tianyi, what’s wrong?” Su Lanfeng asked.
Han Tianyi turned around in a daze and flicked his sleeves. He then realized something and waved his hand, saying that he was fine. He left dejectedly without even seeing anyone. The thoughts that he had for the past half a month were doused with cold water and disappeared in an instant.
Su Lanfeng frowned and did not know what had happened. But after a moment, she shook her head and thought that it was good for that guy to give up.
“Mansion Master, the general location of the Nirvana Secret Realm has been determined,” she turned around and said respectfully.
