Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

Yun Qingyu wielded her twin swords, slashing left and right in a crisscrossing motion. The phantom of a blue phoenix accompanied by sword energy severed the prayer flags and tore apart the barrier...

Inside the Moonlit Palace, Yue Qingxuan had already sensed the commotion outside, but she didn't make a move. She simply murmured to herself, "Let's go! Everything will be alright after tonight..."

A figure stepped into the hall; it was Jiang Ciyou, who had come to stop her. To Jiang Ciyou's surprise, Yue Qingxuan had prepared tea in advance, as if he had anticipated her arrival.

"Ciyou, please sit down!"

Although Jiang Ciyou was puzzled, she still obediently called out "Aunt Yue" and sat down...

Yue Qingxuan poured her a cup of tea, a slight smile on her face, and asked, "Have you gone to pay your respects to your mother?"

"Not yet, I was originally planning to rest for a day and then go with Xiling..."

In the early days of the establishment of Huanmengtian, they encountered a powerful enemy. In order to protect everyone, Jiang Ciyou's mother took the initiative to cover the retreat and sacrificed herself, which made Yue Qingxuan feel guilty towards her.

Jiang Ciyou understood that this was why Yue Qingxuan had always treated her very well, and even once wanted to groom her as the successor of Huanmengtian, while being very strict with Yue Xiling...

But at that time, Li Mu and Xing Tian of the Yanhuang Alliance had already descended to the mortal realm to personally approach her, wanting her to unify the Great Thousand God Realm and become the leader of the Yanhuang Alliance in the Great Thousand God Realm.

In addition, Jiang Ciyou actually felt somewhat guilty towards Yue Xiling, feeling that the position of heir should have been hers, so she refused.

But to her surprise, even after she refused, Yue Qingxuan never intended to raise Yue Xiling as his successor. Instead, he planned to marry her off to that old geezer from the Thunder Domain...

Jiang Ciyou was very puzzled, "Aunt Yue, why did you agree to marry Xiling to that old man? Isn't she your biological daughter?"

Yue Qingxuan sighed softly, "Of course, she was the one I carried for ten months and gave birth to with a heart full of anxiety..."

"Then why did you do it?"

Yue Qingxuan remained silent for a long time before slowly saying, "How could a mother not feel sorry for her child? But I had no choice but to do this..."

"When the Tang Clan was still powerful, although various parties had their own ambitions, they dared not act rashly. Now that the Tang Clan has declined, the situation is very different!"

"Among them, the Thunder Domain has become the most powerful Deity-Holding Organization in the Great Thousand God Realm, and it is clear that it has designs on the entire Great Thousand God Realm!"

"Our weakest region, Illusionary Dream Heaven, has become their first target. As the lord of Illusionary Dream Heaven, I cannot only consider my own personal feelings..."

Jiang Ciyou understood her meaning a little better, "But even if you marry Xiling to that old man, he definitely won't let Huanmengtian go!"

"So Bai Jingzhe's apparent marriage proposal actually gave me two choices: agree to the proposal, and Huanmengtian would be slowly swallowed up..."

"But if we disagree, a bloodbath could break out here. For the safety of everyone here, I have no choice but to do this to maintain the status quo..."

Jiang Ciyou still felt a little reluctant, "But... but wouldn't this be too unfair to Xiling?"

Yue Qingxuan shook his head and asked, "Ciyou, do you still remember who my guardian angel is?"

"Yes, it's the Moon Goddess..."

"That's right!"

Yue Qingxuan slowly got up, walked to the window and looked at the moon outside. He said slowly, "With the help of the Taiyin Star Lord, I can see the marriages of the remaining Deities, except for those who are stronger than me or whose guardian deity positions are higher than hers."

She turned around and said, "Your guardian deity is the Flame Emperor, so I can't see where your destiny lies. But I can clearly see that Xi Ling's destiny does not lie with Bai Jingzhe..."

"Therefore, no matter what I do, Xiling will not be with Bai Jingzhe. This is fate!"

"I guessed that Xiling would escape, and I hoped she would. Once she escapes, Huanmengtian will sever all ties with her and issue a warrant for her arrest..."

"what?"

Although Jiang Ciyou could understand Yue Qingxuan's reasons for doing so, she was still a little worried about her safety. "Aunt Yue, leaving Xiling alone outside, what if..."

"I understand your concerns!"

Yue Qingxuan had a faint smile on his face. "Ciyou, I can see Xiling's destiny. Can you guess who the red thread connecting her to her is?"

"who is it?"

"I do not know either……"

She shook her head. "It's as if her red thread of fate has been severed out of thin air. I can't see the person she's destined to marry at all. This is the first time I've ever seen anything like this. I can't even see their outline."

"tide Ling has a red thread on her body, so she must be destined for marriage. There's no mistake about it. There are only two possibilities: either the other person is far stronger than me..."

"Either their guardian deity is far superior to the Taiyin Star Lord, and to be favored by such a deity, that person's future achievements will certainly be no less than mine..."

"No matter which one it is, he can protect Xiling's safety, which is why I feel at ease letting her leave here. Besides, doesn't she still have you, her good sister?"

……

On the other side, not long after Yue Xiling escaped, Bai Shaotian sealed off the city and launched a manhunt, causing quite a stir. Soon, the news reached Bai Jingzhe's ears.

Upon hearing the news, Bai Jingzhe crushed the teacup in his hand. This was outrageous! How long had he been here?

First, Liu Hengdao was killed, then all the guards he left at the inn were wiped out, and now his fiancée has escaped.

Who exactly is plotting against me?

He gritted his teeth. "Xuan Cang, let's go. We have to go out and look for her too. We absolutely can't let that little girl get away!"

The news of Lei Yu and Huan Mengtian's marriage had just spread when Yue Xiling ran away? What a coincidence!

Bai Jingzhe even suspected that Yue Qingxuan was orchestrating this behind the scenes. No matter what, he absolutely couldn't let her daughter run away, otherwise where would he put his old face?

"Yes……"

Chapter 388: Killing Three Birds with One Stone

Why are there so many people?

In the alley opposite Hanyue Mansion, Yue Xiling hid in the shadows and secretly watched. A large number of guards had already surrounded the entire mansion, so there was probably no chance of getting in.

I wonder how Ayou is doing...

Yue Xiling frowned. The entire Frost Forbidden City was now sealed off, and the only place where she could leave was the secret passage that she and Ayou had dug in the Cold Moon Mansion.

But now it seems that rushing over there will definitely lead to discovery, and even if we enter the secret passage, we will surely be caught...

If I stay in the city, I'll be found sooner or later. What should I do?

Just then, Bai Jingzhe arrived at Hanyue Manor with Wei Xuancang. He increasingly felt that this was a trap set by Yue Qingxuan. The place was heavily guarded, and they might be hiding here...

"My lord, the Moon Lord has ordered that no one is allowed to set foot here..."

Bai Jingzhe's face darkened. Now even an unknown soldier dared to stop him. How much did they look down on him?

He didn't make a move immediately, but his overwhelming aura pressed down on them. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm going in to find my fiancée, get out of the way!"

broken……

Yue Xiling peeked out from the alley and frowned even more when she saw this scene.

If that old geezer discovers the secret passage, then I'll have absolutely no chance of escaping...

Suddenly, Wei Xuancang, who was standing behind Bai Jingzhe, seemed to sense something and looked over. Although Yue Xiling quickly withdrew her head, he still noticed her.

"Domain Lord!"

Wei Xuancang stopped Bai Jingzhe, who was about to violently rush in, and pointed in the direction of the alley, "There seemed to be a figure peeking over there just now!"

A figure?

Bai Jingzhe turned around and noticed a deep footprint on the snow. It wasn't buried very deep, so it seemed to have been left just now...

"Let's go take a look!"

"Yes……"

Wei Xuancang summoned his Thunder Spear and walked step by step toward the alley. Sensing his approaching aura, Yue Xiling, who was hiding in the alley, changed her expression. She had actually been discovered!

She had to run away quickly, so she backed away step by step, and just as she turned around, she bumped into someone's arms...

"Well……"

When Wei Xuancang stepped into the alley with the thunder spear, he followed the footprints on the ground to a trash can, but strangely, the footprints vanished into thin air...

……

Frosty Forbidden City, Snowy Forest South of the City.

"So that's why the whole city was suddenly locked down, it turns out you ran away from your wedding..."

Li Moxuan removed his mask and disguise. He was the one who had just brought Yue Xiling out using spatial jump. They only used guards to block the area, not the space itself.

Behind him, Yue Xiling, dressed in a bright red wedding gown, stepped forward and sincerely thanked him, saying, "Thank you so much, Senior Xuan..."

She thought Li Moxuan had already left, but she didn't expect him to still be in the city and eventually help her escape.

"You're welcome, it was just something I did..."

When Li Moxuan arrived at the inn where the Thunder Domain members were staying, everyone there was already dead. It was obviously done by that group of people again, and he just got lucky.

Thanks to Li Shimin's reminder, he now knew that the group of people were probably incarnations of gods from other divine realms who had descended to the mortal world, and were also eyeing the Great Thousand Divine Realm.

However, according to the rules, the gods of the divine realm cannot interfere too much in the affairs of the Great Thousand God Realms, so gods who have incarnated in the lower realms are not qualified to unify the Great Thousand God Realms.

If anyone dares to do this, it is very likely to attract the supreme gods of various divine realms, or even the creator god himself to descend to the mortal realm to bring them back to the divine realm to be punished and condemned by the gods.

This is also why many gods want to find the host god, because no matter what they do, even if they are the ones who drive it, they can blame it on the host god and not be held accountable.

Those people were wantonly killing people from the Thunder Domain here, and they even made Liu Hengdao and Wang Shengan duel. They were obviously trying to provoke a fight between the Thunder Domain, the Underworld, and the Illusionary Dream Heaven, and then fish in troubled waters.

From this perspective, it seems that the biggest beneficiary is the Holy Covenant Church, which has been rumored to be embroiled in internal strife. Could it be that they are the ones pulling the strings behind the scenes?

Li Moxuan originally intended to observe the situation, but he didn't expect that Yue Xiling's elopement would trigger a city-wide lockdown...

He turned around, glanced at Yue Xiling, and asked, "What are your plans next?"

"I do not know either……"

Yue Xiling pouted and said firmly, "But I definitely can't be taken back!"

If I get caught and taken back, I'll definitely be forced into marriage, and then it'll be much harder to escape...

Her gaze fell on Li Moxuan, and she asked with a hint of curiosity, "Senior, what are your plans next?"

What do you want to do?

"Ahem, I just wanted to ask if you mind if one more person comes along?"

Yue Xiling now has a pretty good impression of Li Moxuan. Unlike other men who are attracted to her beauty, he is strong, good-looking, and had just saved her.

"I'm an assassin hired by the Tang Clan, I don't have the energy to carry around a burden..."

As Yue Xiling expected, Li Moxuan rejected her decisively, but he didn't go too far.
