Chapter 1547 — The One Whose Kindness Suddenly Overflowed
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 3 of 4
He had long known of the Yujing trap and had firmly believed in his heart that it was a trap left by the Master of Miluo Palace, a trap to slaughter the divine-power practitioners and gods of this age and help them descend all the sooner! It was exactly this preconceived notion that made him view the Ancestral Court's Yujing City with all kinds of bias. But hearing the words of the woman in the Dao Fruit suddenly gave him another perspective, planting a sliver of doubt in his mind about the Yujing trap.
Indeed, if the Master of Miluo Palace truly intended to lay the Yujing trap, why would he brand his own Dao onto Yujing City?
Why would he gather the strength of tens of thousands of Dao-achievers and take such pains to build this divine city? Did the Yujing trap truly exist?
Or had the Master of Miluo Palace been well-intentioned from start to finish, wanting to ferry people across? "But when prehistoric Dao-achievers sneak into our universe, they cause our universe to age rapidly and decay, and its Annihilation Tribulation will come early. " Shen Mu sneered.
"How do you explain that?
" The woman in the battered Dao Fruit shook her head.
"That is merely because other Dao-achievers do not want to die and cling to power. What has that to do with the Master of Miluo Palace?
He has never once tried to set foot in your universe.
All he thought about, all he did, was forge this divine city. As for what others have done, that has nothing to do with him. " Her veneration for the Master of Miluo Palace was beyond measure. Every word was saturated with reverence, and she could not even tolerate Shen Mu's suspicion of him.
"You may doubt anyone, but you must never doubt him. Any suspicion or doubt you direct at him is an insult to him!
" the woman in the Dao Fruit said with absolute finality. "If you truly could penetrate the mysteries of Yujing City, then you would discover the Master of Miluo Palace's greatness, and you would also see how painstaking his good intentions were!
You think it is a trap, a trap we deliberately left for you, but what you do not know is that we too cultivate Yujing City! " Shen Mu fell silent. After a long while, he finally said slowly, "No matter how you dress it up in beautiful words, I will always harbor doubt. Because a fellow Daoist I held in the highest regard was struck down into the Chaos River by the very Master of Miluo Palace you praise so highly, and he vanished without a trace!
I even suspect that even you Dao-achievers have fallen into his Yujing trap without knowing it.
" The woman in the Dao Fruit sneered. "A summer insect cannot be spoken to of ice! " With that, she ignored him completely. Shen Mu murmured, "I will always remain suspicious of him. .
.
I must remain suspicious!
" At that moment, one terrifying aura after another suddenly came from behind. Qiang Tianfei looked back and saw Dawn Heavenly Venerable, Langxuan Divine Emperor, and others bursting out of the thick chaotic mist and pursuing them.
Then a Dao Tree whirled forth, floating out of the Chaos River, and Hao Heavenly Venerable, Ancestor God King, Fire Heavenly Venerable, and others stood atop it. "Mu Tianzun, since you doubt the Master of Miluo Palace, why not go to Miluo Palace and meet him?
" Qiang Tianfei said rapidly.
"Whether the Yujing trap exists, one look will tell!
" Shen Mu's spirits soared. He drove the little boat faster and said in a low voice, "In that case, let us go meet him!
" Although Qiang Tianfei regarded Shen Mu as her most troublesome opponent, she could not help secretly admiring his boldness. She thought to herself that this little brat was full of wicked schemes, but no one could match his heroic spirit. Shen Mu drove the little boat at flying speed, leaving the other Heavenly Venerables behind.
