Inside, strains of celestial music wafted through the air, surrounded by plenty of ethereal aura.
It was as if a heaven on earth.
"Ning Tian murmured contemplatively, surprisingly taken aback by the scenery within the Yaochi Palace.
Just then, a voice sounded.
"How is it?"
"I wonder what the legendary Ancestor Master thinks of my Yaochi Palace?"
As the voice ceased, a woman in purple appeared out of thin air above the great hall, her face veiled, yet her beauty was undeniable.
With her appearance, the celestial music halted, and the musicians around, playing the zither, all stopped and bowed respectfully.
"Greetings to Xi Wangmu (Queen Mother of the West)!"
Beside her, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi also paid her respects with reverence.
Xi Wangmu?
Was this purple-clad woman Xi Wangmu?
Ning Tian felt a hint of surprise in his heart, originally thinking when he heard of Xi Wangmu, she would be an old lady. Unexpectedly, Xi Wangmu was so young.
"Greetings to Xi Wangmu."
Ning Tian also clasped his hands in greeting.
He merely clasped his hands and did not bow deeply. After all, he was the Empress' husband. Although not strong in power, his status was high.
Xi Wangmu didn't seem too bothered and simply smiled.
The next moment, she appeared right beside Ning Tian.
Fragrant breeze filled the air, and Ning Tian couldn't help feeling astonished; Xi Wangmu's speed was incredibly fast!
It seemed Xi Wangmu was indeed a great emperor-level powerhouse!
"Not bad, not bad."
Xi Wangmu's gaze sized up Ning Tian, which made him extremely uncomfortable.
"The Empress' husband is indeed extraordinary. At first, I thought the Empress had gone mad," Xi Wangmu said cheerfully, and then slowly removed her veil, revealing her stunningly beautiful face!
In that instant!
Ning Tian found his breath quicken, his cheeks flushed, his heart racing!
Shit!
What's going on?
A shock ran through Ning Tian's mind!
He just glanced at Xi Wangmu, and he had turned into this state.
He didn't feel enamored!
The System's gloating voice rang out in his mind.
"Host, you've met your match! This Xi Wangmu possesses the physique of a 'Fox Demon Absolute Charm'."
"Fox Demon Absolute Charm physique? Never mind about physiognomy, help me resolve this state first!" Ning Tian thought silently, feeling absurd. If this continued, he was going to embarrass himself!
System: "Calm down, host. Just fully operate your 'Divine Enchantment Physique,' and naturally, you will resolve it."
"Alright."
Ning Tian gritted his teeth, then operated the one hundred and ninety-nine Thunder Tribulation Spiritual Veins and fully engaged the Divine Enchantment Physique!
Next, a purple light flashed over Ning Tian's body, and gradually, he returned to normal.
"Sigh."
Ning Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
Eh?
Xi Wangmu was taken aback, a flash of confusion in her eyes.
Had Ning Tian really broken free from her enchantment?
You must know, even mighty heaven-level powerhouses facing her 'Fox Demon Absolute Charm' physique might not be able to resolve it!
But now, this legendary Ancestor Master of the Demon Sect managed to do so, and he was only at the Spirit Communication realm?
"Xi Wangmu, please show some self-restraint! I represent the Demon Sect!"
Ning Tian huffed coldly, highly dissatisfied with Xi Wangmu's action.
After all, he was Luo Wuqing's husband!
He represented the Demon Sect!
Xi Wangmu was magnanimous and apologized with a smile, "Please excuse my rashness, legendary Ancestor Master."
At this moment, she did not carry the air of a great emperor.
"Hmm," Ning Tian nodded slightly and then looked at Xi Wangmu, "I wonder why would you need the Sky-clearing Mirror from my Demon Sect?"
"Please follow me, Ancestor Master."
Xi Wangmu said, leading Ning Tian, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, and a group of Yaochi elders towards the back of Yaochi Palace.
The group arrived at the back mountain of Yaochi Palace.
They were met with a completely black pool in front of Ning Tian.
"What's this?"
Seeing this scene, Ning Tian frowned; the pool was pitch black, and had an indescribable weirdness.
Xi Wangmu smiled and then said to Ning Tian, "Ancestor Master, you don't have to worry. It's just that our disciples contaminated the water here during their cultivation. Unfortunately, we can't clean this water source, so we had to borrow your sect's Sky-clearing Mirror."
"Ah?"
Ning Tian was stunned and looked doubtfully at Xi Wangmu, "Is it that simple?"
"Of course."
"You mean to say, not even you, Xi Wangmu, can clean it?" Ning Tian asked again.
Xi Wangmu nodded, "I am a God Emperor-level powerhouse, but I have no idea how to deal with this kind of thing."
"…"
Clearly disbelieving, Ning Tian felt skeptical, but at this point, even if he asked further, Xi Wangmu would never tell him.
"Well then, since it is a matter of your holy land, I shall not interfere further."
Ning Tian said indifferently, then with the array imprinted by Luo Wuqing flashing in his hand, the Sky-clearing Mirror appeared in his grasp.
"Sky-clearing Mirror!"
Seeing the Sky-clearing Mirror, the Yaochi Holy Land's elders all had their eyes light up!
"Indeed, it's the Sky-clearing Mirror!"
"It is said that under the Sky-clearing Mirror, nothing can hide, and it can absorb all things. I wonder if it's true."
"If so, our Yaochi Holy Land's fairy pond might be saved."
A group of elders breathed a sigh of relief, each eyeing the Sky-clearing Mirror in Ning Tian's hand excitedly.
