The second day after the heavenly road opened, Chu Mo still had not appeared.

At the entrance, aside from a few who hurried over, there were hardly any monks to be seen, and those who should have gone in had already done so.

By the morning of the third day since the heavenly road opened, the entrance was even more deserted, and the followers by Chu Qing's side were growing impatient. One of the charming young girls softly said, "My lord... shall we enter and wait as we walk?"

Another person also advised, "Yes, my lord, if the young master can make it, the first people he should see would be us."

Chu Qing sighed and said softly, "Let's wait a bit longer... until noon. If he still hasn't come by then, we'll go in!"

Time passed quickly, and by noon, Chu Mo's figure still had not appeared.

Chu Qing let out a long breath, her expression filled with regret and a bit of relief. She said, "Let's go in."

As she spoke, Chu Qing couldn't help but look once more toward the direction of the City of Heavenly Domain in the distance, where still no one was coming. Even Hu Lie and Yue Qingcheng had not appeared. Shaking her head slightly, she took the lead and entered the gate of the heavenly road.

It was a gate condensed from the laws of the Great Dao, appearing once every three thousand years and lasting only three days.

At that moment, Hu Lie and Yue Qingcheng were also feeling conflicted.

They were still in the Heavenly Dao Garden!

The Heavenly Dao Garden, which had been bustling in the past few days, was now quiet and deserted, with almost no one to be seen in the vast garden.

"Why hasn't this kid come out yet? In just a few hours, the gate of the heavenly road will be completely closed," Hu Lie said, pacing back and forth anxiously, his brow furrowed.

Yue Qingcheng looked at Hu Lie and said, "Big brother Hu Lie, why don't you go in first? I have decided to follow the young master, no matter what, I will wait here, but you don't have to."

Hu Lie sighed, "Let's wait a little longer, if there's only one hour left and he still hasn't come out, then I'll have to go in first! But... are you sure you want to wait for him? The heavenly road opens once every three thousand years, and if you miss this chance, you might truly miss it. With your talents, advancing to the Emperor Realm in three thousand years should be no problem at all. Even if you forcefully suppress your cultivation, who can foresee what the era three thousand years from now will be like?" Hu Lie looked at Yue Qingcheng earnestly and said, "I think even if you go in, he definitely won't blame you, I understand him..."

Yue Qingcheng smiled gently, "I know he won't blame me, but I would blame myself. Big brother Hu Lie, do you know? Before I decided to follow the young master, when I saw people with your status and identity, not to mention calling someone 'big brother,' even trying to get closer... I would be rejected. Even if I was extremely cautious and humble because they would feel that I was too inferior in status and identity. Many people would even think that I had some ulterior motive in approaching them. I have always longed to enter a higher circle, not for anything else, but simply because without access to that circle, I wouldn't even qualify to enter the Heavenly Dao Garden... and to harbor the wish of comprehending the Dao under the Heavenly Dao Tree was a sheer luxury. In my most helpless and darkest moment, the young master gave me dignity, gave me everything! Perhaps to you nobles, this might not seem like much, but in my eyes, it's equivalent to everything. Hence, I will become the most loyal person by the young master's side!"

Hu Lie looked at Yue Qingcheng, then suddenly smiled, "Not bad, my brother is indeed lucky to have such a follower like you."

"It's my fortune," Yue Qingcheng said.

At that time, Hongyue walked out from inside, looked at the two of them, and said in a low voice, "He should be about to wake up now!"

"That's great!" Hu Lie's face showed an excited smile.

Yue Qingcheng also beamed with happiness. Although she had made her decision, deep down, she still greatly longed to enter the heavenly road. After comprehending the Dao under the Heavenly Dao Tree for so many days, her realm had successfully advanced to that of a true immortal!

Although she was only at the early stage of a true immortal, not comparable to those young nobles, for Yue Qingcheng, it was a realm she had never dared to dream of before.

Hongyue nodded lightly at the two of them, and then took a deep look at Yue Qingcheng, but said nothing. Her showing up to see the two of them was already a sign of her acknowledgment.

In times like these, it's the clearest moment to see into people's hearts.

As Chu Mo's brother, Hu Lie had done enough by getting this far!

As a follower of Chu Mo, Yue Qingcheng, willing to give up the chance to enter the heavenly road in order to stand or fall together, had also done enough.

There was half an hour left before the gate of the heavenly road would close.

A faint and blurry figure appeared at the entrance of the heavenly road. He finally couldn't restrain himself anymore!

He had already been waiting here for a full three days!

There was only half an hour left before the door to the heavenly road would close completely, but Chu Mo… still hadn't shown up!

"Damn it… Could this coward really not dare to come in?" A horrifying aura burst forth from the vague figure, as if he were furious.

He had been watching in the dark since Chu Qing had been waiting here, through to when Chu Qing entered and then some latecomers had also gone in. Now that the gate to the heavenly road was about to close, his patience… had finally run out.

He was waiting here to kill Chu Mo!

He had received a kill order from the elder of his family, to assassinate Chu Mo. The elder told him that it was best to kill Chu Mo on the heavenly road. But he didn't think so; he wanted to slaughter Chu Mo right at the entrance of the heavenly road.

Because that would be easier.

Just a mere ant at the Daluo Golden Immortal stage, only an idiot like Long Qiushui would seal his own cultivation to fight him.

Despite having the cultivation of a true immortal, why would anyone seal their own cultivation? He couldn't understand it.

So he would never do such a thing, he just thought about how to kill Chu Mo in the easiest way possible, because he was a killer.

As a young master at the pinnacle of the true immortal stage, he had no reputation to speak of—killers didn't need fame. Only he and the elder of his clan knew that he, at the pinnacle of the true immortal stage, had successfully assassinated two masters of the Emperor Realm!

Although one was at the first level of the Emperor Realm and the other at the second level.

But for a true immortal to counter the Emperor Realm, such cultivators were few and far between in the entire world.

He didn't want to wait until he entered the heavenly road and then look for Chu Mo. That would be too troublesome, and the chances of exposing his identity would also be higher. Although he was confident in his invincibility, he wasn't stupid and didn't think he could wipe out all the cultivators on the heavenly road.

But why hadn't that bastard come?

Time trickled away bit by bit, and there was only enough time left for one incense stick to burn before the gate to the heavenly road would close!

In that duration, he feared that even if one rushed here from the City of Heavenly Domain, it would be barely enough.

He finally lost all his patience and let out a low growl from his throat, "You're lucky… Once I come out of the heavenly road, I'll go and kill you! By then, even if you hide in the Heavenly Dao Garden and don't come out, I'll still find you and kill you!"

Saying this, the man stepped directly into the gate to the heavenly road.

Just as his silhouette had vanished, four figures almost instantly appeared at the heavenly road entrance.

Hongyue frowned slightly and said in a soft voice, "Why is the murderous intent so strong?"
