Chapter 491: Day Ends, Blood-Tinted Moon
The Moon Empress was listening to the voice on the other end of the call when she heard the Mother of Bloodbath say that Lin Yuan had been sucked into a Class 3 dimensional rift outside of Indigo Azure City.
Moreover, it was not known what had gone wrong with this dimensional rift that even allowed it to evolve.
A smile suddenly blossomed on the Moon Empress’ originally emotionless face.
This smile was like an epiphyllum flower, bringing an instant of vividness.
Just as the Moon Empress smiled, the bright moon that had replaced the scorching sun and shed cold moonlight was abruptly stained with blood.
As the moon became tinted, its initial coldness transformed into murderous intent boiling in the horizon.
At that moment, within the Radiance Federation, the pupils of the experts looking at the horizon constricted at the same time.
As for the numerous ordinary people gazing at the sky, dust-laden memories were suddenly uncovered.
One day, ten years ago, a blood-stained moon had also hung in the sky from dusk to dawn.
Mystic Moon noticed that the Moon Empress’ expression revealed her shock.
Within her heart, the Moon Empress’ murderous intent and worry for the Young Lord were so thick that she laughed in her fury.
Yet, Mystic Moon’s own rage and worry were just as intense as the Moon Empress’.
Although Lin Yuan was the Moon Empress’ disciple and did not share blood ties with her, their master-disciple relationship meant that he could be considered her only heir.
Naturally, the Moon Empress regarded him as a treasure.
While she always displayed her might in her actions, she would also carefully consider how the most minute of details might affect the Young Lord’s feelings.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven if Mystic Moon was not as meticulous as the Moon Empress in his treatment of Lin Yuan, just the sound of Lin Yuan calling him ‘Uncle Mystic’ was enough for Mystic Moon to also treat Lin Yuan as his only descendant.
It was just that the more Mystic Moon cared for Lin Yuan, the more he worried now.
When a dimensional rift was evolving, even if the Moon Empress had now reached that level, she could only destroy it. She still could not change the truth of this world’s spatial dimension laws or tear the dimensional rift open to save the Young Lord within it.
It could be said that the only chance of surviving after being sucked into a dimensional rift was to safely spend a period of time inside.
Only when the dimensional rift had evolved and was reopened did the people inside have an opportunity to escape it.
Upon seeing that the Moon Empress had hung up the phone, Mystic Moon immediately asked,
“Moon Empress, in the process of denying its evolution, the Class 3 water world dimensional rift that was originally controlled will recover its initial peak strength of Class 3. The Young Lord—”
Before Mystic Moon could finish his sentence, the Moon Empress’ cold voice interrupted him.
“Follow This Empress to the entrance of that evolving dimensional rift, and wait for This Empress’ disciple to return.”
How could the Moon Empress not know that when a controlled dimensional rift was evolving, it would recover the strength that it had possessed before being controlled?
However, the Moon Empress remained completely unperturbed by such danger.
She had paid attention to Black’s identity every step of the way.
Lin Yuan had many secrets and also many capabilities.
Even without the aid of the Extreme Token that she had given him, the Moon Empress believed that Lin Yuan would be able to find a way to survive in the pinnacle Class 3 water world dimensional rift.
It was just that during the active period of such a dimensional rift, Lin Yuan had stumbled upon a big secret hidden in Indigo Azure City’s coastal sea.
It was likely that the real danger that Lin Yuan had to face lay not in the dimensional lifeforms within the dimensional rift but in the enemy who was plotting everything in secret.
The Moon Empress’ face became increasingly shrouded in worry.
If she were to have planned all of this in secret, would she have allowed the pinnacle Class 3 water world dimensional rift to only have evolved one grade?
For the first time, a sense of powerlessness surged in the Moon Empress’ heart, causing her to immediately clench her fist.
This helplessness did not stem from her strength itself. She could sublimate mountains and oceans into states beyond the gaseous, liquid, and solid ones when the moonlight boiled.
She could skyrocket the grades and qualities of fey. What bothered her was that she could not change the rules governing space to directly rescue her disciple.
It was comparable to how a dead person could not come back to life.
Hence, the Moon Empress could only wait hopefully for her disciple to walk out of that evolving dimensional rift alive.
She could only wait, and only waiting remained.
Then, the Moon Empress’ pleasing pupils froze over with ice.
Standing in the Moon Shadow Walkway, she gazed far into the distance.
“The tree wishes for quiet, but the wind is unceasing. Now, this unceasing wind blows on This Empress’ disciple.”
The small rabbit in the Moon Empress’ arms reluctantly stopped gnawing on its carrot and put it away.
At this moment, its ears, which were always drooping, also stood up, shaking slightly.
An extreme purple hue rose in its eyes.
...
In a dark room within the Spirit Guards Headquarters, a black-robed and black-veiled woman was reading the letters in her hands.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter reading each letter, she would either lay it down on her left or roll up one of its corners and lay it down on her right.
At that moment, the woman’s gaze grew suddenly severe.
After setting down the letter that she was currently reading, she arrived before the Spirit Guards’ Chief Guard Pavilion in a flash.
Upon the black-robed woman’s sudden appearance, the two old men who had initially been standing before the pavilion hurriedly bowed and said, “We wish you immense peace, Chief Guard!”
After speaking, one of the old men bowed again and continued. “Night Chief Guard, look at where the Moon Empress is in the sky...”
The other old man then quickly added, “Night Chief Guard, why don’t you go and persuade...”
The black-robed, black-veiled woman did not acknowledge the old men’s words but turned her gaze to the sky.
“The clouds span ten thousand miles, the mountains form thousands of piles, the day is at its end, and the moon is tinted with blood.”
Having said that, the Spirit Guards’ Night Chief Guard picked the most alluring flower blooming on a peony in front of the Chief Guard Pavilion and flung it toward the horizon.
Beneath the blood-colored moonlight, this most beautiful peony flower appeared unusually delicate, as if soaked with blood.
The Night Chief Guard gazed intently at the blood-tinted moon on the horizon.
She realized that what had initially been one blood-stained moon were now two.
Her expression was hidden behind her black veil, but a sigh escaped from her lips.
“The moonlight blooms with a blood luster, and the first quarter and third quarter moon divide the moon.
“It’s too late to persuade her.”
After a while, the Night Chief Guard looked directly at the two old men by her side and said, “My left and right palm attendants, you do not need to concern yourself with this matter. After settling the Guard Envoy’s affairs, one of you will go north and the other south, one to Hearthstone City and the other to Cold Frost City to preside over them.”
Upon hearing the Night Chief Guard’s words, the two old men immediately bowed and retreated to follow her orders.
