Chapter 1761: Chapter 1800: New Function of the Moon Realm
Jiang Fan was taken aback by what he heard.
He had indeed overlooked this matter.
As one of the most powerful forces in the Heavenly State, the Moon Palace could hardly tolerate the notion of the Moon Venerate having a so-called husband.
Even if they didn’t kill him, they would surely come to warn him to stay away from the Moon Venerate, wouldn’t they?
Yet, no one ever approached him, which was indeed unusual.
But if it was the Leng Yue Sage who ordered them not to disturb Jiang Fan, that would make sense.
Jiang Fan asked in confusion, "Senior, when did you start observing me secretly?"
"Why did I not notice at all?"
The Leng Yue Sage said, "I was there during your journey across the Four Seas."
"I witnessed you freeing the Four Seas from the constraint of Sanqing Mountain, saw you in a fury slay the Demon Emperor in the Ling Shu’s outrage, and watched you protect all beings during the Linlang Hunting."
"I observed you fighting to the death during the early stages of the Ancient Giant war for Taicang State."
"From my observations, my conclusion about you is, while you might suffer small losses, you don’t lose in the bigger picture; although cunning, you have compassion for the weak and a chivalrous heart."
"With the Moon Palace in your hands, I wouldn’t worry too much."
Jiang Fan nodded, finding this evaluation relatively acceptable.
But soon, he became suspicious: "How is that possible? How did you witness my situation on the Continent?"
The Continent is a place where Sages cannot set foot, so how did the Leng Yue Sage spy on his activities across it?
Additionally, after arriving at Taicang State, he often met the Great Wine Sacrifice; could it be that the Great Wine Sacrifice didn’t notice the Leng Yue Sage hiding nearby?
This seemed unreasonable.
Could it be that the Leng Yue Sage was observing him in another way?
As he pondered this, he suddenly recalled something and took a piece of the Moon Realm Fragment from his bosom.
This Moon Realm originally was something from the Moon Venerate and also had a miraculous ability to communicate across worlds.
Who knows if there are other hidden abilities?
Combining it with his journey to the Four Seas, that event happened not long after he had obtained the Moon Realm.
Jiang Fan’s suspicion grew: "Did you observe me using the Moon Realm?"
The Leng Yue Sage chuckled: "What else? Is a treasure of our Moon Palace that easy to take?"
Damn!
Jiang Fan’s expression changed dramatically, wasn’t it that all his secrets had been exposed to the Leng Yue Sage all along?
"Haha, are you scared? The Moon Realm’s peeking feature can only be activated once on a full moon night and disappears at dawn."
The Leng Yue Sage replied playfully.
That somewhat eased Jiang Fan’s expression.
In other words, it can be used for half a day each month, and only at night.
The things he exposed were minimal.
Yet, Jiang Fan still felt uneasy, as no one liked being watched like this.
He would later find a talisman or some Magical Treasure to seal the Moon Realm.
He gave a cold snort and said, "No wonder you didn’t take it back, you were spying on us!"
The Leng Yue Sage pointed at the token in Jiang Fan’s hand, saying: "When it becomes official, you too can activate the Moon Realm’s peeking ability."
Only then did Jiang Fan realize that this token was called the "Candidate Palace Master Token."
He pondered, "Are there other candidate palace masters?"
The Leng Yue Sage said, "Of course, I need to select the most suitable one from among a group of outstanding people."
"Besides you, there are two other candidates."
"After the merit convention, the true future palace master will be selected based on your performances."
"The selected person’s Candidate Palace Master Token will become the official Palace Master Token."
"Those not selected will have their tokens self-destruct on the spot."
Jiang Fan shrugged, handing over the Candidate Palace Master Token:
"You can pick them."
"I have no interest in being the Moon Palace’s Palace Master."
He had no time to manage such a large sect.
He didn’t even have time to manage the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, leaving everything to the Pavilion Master to worry about, let alone a Moon Palace that had nothing to do with him?
The Leng Yue Sage was momentarily stunned: "This is the position of the Moon Palace Master!"
She really hadn’t expected that Jiang Fan would refuse.
Jiang Fan said, "I am not interested in this, please find someone else, senior."
The Leng Yue Sage’s face changed from green to red.
She had thought Jiang Fan would be grateful, but in reality, she was practically begging him to accept it.
"Bastard, is being able to refine a Little Heaven Pill such a big deal? Is there no one else who can do it besides you?"
"Well, indeed there is no one else."
She gritted her back teeth and was about to swallow her pride to plead for him to accept, when suddenly she had an epiphany.
Oh right, how could she have forgotten about the Moon Venerate?
She smiled and said, "Forgot to tell you, the position of Moon Palace Master has one advantage."
"And that is the authority to command everyone in the Moon Palace, including the Moon Venerate."
Oh?
Jiang Fan’s eyes lit up and finally, he was interested.
He had been vexed about how to handle the situation with the Moon Venerate and Chen Silin; if the Moon Venerate relied on the Moon Palace’s background and refused to meet, there would be nothing he could do.
With the position of Palace Master, things would be different.
If he told her to lie down, she would lie down; if he told her to take a stance, she would take a stance.
He asked, "Senior, dare I ask if the remnant soul of the Moon Venerate can be extracted?"
The Leng Yue Sage shook her head: "Theoretically, the Moon Venerate is considered to be in possession and retraining; if extracted, she would surely vanish into smoke."
She showed a helpless expression: "Speaking of which, the Moon Venerate is actually the true owner of the body, Chen Silin is just a new soul that emerged while she was dormant."
"There can only be one between them."
"As for who stays and who goes, it’s up to how you choose."
"If you keep the Moon Venerate, with her previous accumulation, giving her the chance to accumulate merit means she will surely become a sage in the future, bringing immense help to your endeavors."
"If you keep Chen Silin, her love is for you, and she will undoubtedly accompany you throughout your life, weathering storms together."
"The choice is yours."
"But all of this is contingent upon you becoming the Moon Palace Master; otherwise, it would be difficult to even see the Moon Venerate, let alone make a decision."
Jiang Fan thought briefly, then clenched the token and asked, "Who are the other two candidates?"
The Leng Yue Sage smiled brightly, finally accepting it.
Her body began to fade, and she said, "I can’t tell you about that, just as you cannot reveal your existence to them."
"Otherwise, if you three fight amongst yourselves, losing any one of you would be a loss."
This made sense.
Jiang Fan nodded lightly, "Thank you, senior. I will perform well in tomorrow’s merit convention."
With satisfaction, the Leng Yue Sage faded into a virtual image and disappeared.
Jiang Fan put away the Candidate Palace Master Token and brought a Dragon and Phoenix Divine Gallbladder into the palace.
"Caiyi, try taking it."
Gong Caiyi, having witnessed everything that happened outside, was flattered: "Husband, save it for elder sister’s child."
This Little Heaven Pill had indeed stirred all the Sages of the Heavenly State, its preciousness beyond her imagination.
Xu Youran shoved the Jade Bottle into her hand, saying: "Fan won’t favor one over the other, just take it first."
"The earlier this Spirit Pill is taken, the better it is for the child."
Unable to resist, Gong Caiyi finally took the first Little Heaven Pill of the Millennium of Central Earth under everyone’s watchful eyes.
As the Dragon and Phoenix Divine Gallbladder entered her body, two majestic forces, one red and one white, surged into the fetus.
Instantly, a powerful, rhythmic heartbeat, like the sound of distant drums, could be clearly heard.
A strong and unparalleled life force began to slowly emanate.
The Rebellious Guy jumped up, stretched out its little paw, and touched Gong Caiyi’s belly, only for a thick force to rebound it back.
The Rebellious Guy was taken aback, its eyes widening: "How is it even more exaggerated than when I was in the eggshell?"
Upon seeing this, everyone was astonished.
The Rebellious Guy is the child of the Green Dragon Demon Venerable, born as a Demon Emperor Realm.
Could it be that when Jiang Fan’s child is born, they will be even stronger than the Rebellious Guy?
