The Heavenly Emperor's procession arrived and departed swiftly, disappearing into the horizon before Shen Qian's very eyes. In the distance, Shen Qian vaguely saw a streak of light scatter from it and land somewhere in the distance.

He was shocked.

He wasn't very familiar with the Heavenly Emperor, but he did remember the divine dragon.

This time, however, the opponent was no longer frozen underground, but soaring through the sky. Its awe-inspiring power clearly surpassed that of mountains and seas!

Although there had been some speculation, the confirmation that there were indeed kings and marquises within this Heavenly Realm was still not good news for Shen Qian.

This means that even he has to be more cautious.

Only after the grand procession had gone far away did Old Hu finally manage to raise his neck again with difficulty.

Old Hu glanced at Shen Qian, who was looking up thoughtfully beside him, and held back from saying something. But when he saw Da Sheng peeking around, Old Hu couldn't help himself.

"It's one thing for Shen Qian to be a problem, but how come you can withstand such power?"

"Chirp chirp..."

The Great Sage gestured wildly.

"What did it say?" Hu Feiwei clearly couldn't understand.

"If you keep your head down for too long, you'll naturally forget how to lift it up," Shen Qian said calmly.

"?" Hu Feiwei's face darkened. "What nonsense is this?"

"This isn't what it said, it's what Xun Ge said."

He chuckled before sinking.

"Brother Xun?"

"They were just intellectuals from the past... Ah, never mind, it's not important." Shen Qian waved his hand. "Do you really think that was the so-called Heavenly Emperor?"

"impossible!"

When this topic was brought up, Old Hu shook his head decisively, "The Celestial Realm has been extinct for many years. How could the Heavenly Emperor, as the ruler of this world, still be alive?"

"But isn't everything before us absurd?"

Shen Qian stared at the spot where the Heavenly Emperor's entourage had disappeared, and murmured, "That dragon... I've seen it before."

"You've seen him?"

Hu Fei was taken aback.

"When I last came here, it was still frozen underground, without any sign of life."

Shen Qian nodded slightly. "I was thinking, if even this divine dragon, which is clearly at the level of a king or marquis, has come back to life, what's impossible about the Heavenly Emperor's resurrection?"

"That's what the scene in front of us is telling us... but something still feels off."

He frowned deeply.

He had just tried to peer into the car using the Eye of Truth, but this time... the Eye of Truth failed.

This is also the first time the Eye of Truth has failed since the realization of the submerged state.

The Prince of Jiangling once told him that the Eye of Truth was enough to see through ordinary kings and nobles. Could it be that the person inside that carriage was a top-tier king or noble?

The thought of this possibility made Shen Qian feel uneasy.

In terms of the level of a "gate", it is normal for a king or marquis to exist in an A-level gate, but a top-level king or marquis... that would be an existence that no one can match.

Moreover, if he remembered correctly, when he last came to the Heavenly Realm, the heavenly soldiers and generals were digging out not only this divine dragon from the ice mountain, but also many other terrifying beings.

If all those beings were to revive, then the Heavenly Realm would truly be bustling with activity.

Another point is, so many people go to great lengths to get through this "door," but what is their real purpose?

Did these people anticipate the possibility of amnesia?

Do you know why that demoness entered the Heavenly Realm back then?

Before sinking in, he remembered that Old Hu was at least someone who knew the truth, so he asked a question.

Hu Fei closed his eyes and reviewed his memories for a while before saying, "I've only met that demoness twice, and I know very little about her. However, she said something when she led Cheng Ye into the 'gate'."

"What did you say?"

"The scene was too chaotic at the time, and I didn't hear everything clearly. I only vaguely heard something about 'hope' or something like that."

"Hope?" Shen Qian was taken aback.

"Yes, those are the two words."

Hu Feiwei shrugged. "Perhaps there is some hope for the revival of the scavengers hidden in this celestial realm? That demoness is extremely hostile to the human race. Whatever she is looking for in the celestial realm, it is definitely not a good thing."

"nonsense!"

Shen Qian rolled her eyes, but still kept in mind what Grandpa Hu said, just in case it came in handy.

"Kid, what do we do now? We can't just stay here at the Imperial Stables forever, can we?"

Seeing that Shen Qian hadn't spoken for a while, Hu Fei couldn't help but say, "Or else..."

"Stop! Don't tell me you're going to find Jiang Chengye!"

Shen Qian immediately stopped him, saying, "Putting aside the fact that you have no idea where Jiang Chengye is, we can't even determine whether he's friend or foe. Are you sure he's still the same Jiang Chengye from before?"

Hu Feiwei, whose thoughts had been seen through, looked sullen. "Well, we can't just sit here and wait, can we?"

"Of course not..."

Shen Qian shook his head, wanting to ask Old Hu to come with him to find the clone first. He felt very insecure right now, and the clone, if used properly, might become a powerful trump card.

However, before he could finish speaking, a muffled boom came from afar.

What was that sound?

Hu Fei looked up in surprise and doubt, staring in a certain direction. "Such a strong fluctuation of spiritual energy."

"It's that 'light'..."

"What light?"

"A streak of light just fell from the Heavenly Emperor's ceremonial regalia. If I'm not mistaken, the sound came from that direction."

He explained before sinking in.

"Let's go take a look."

The two exchanged a glance and made the same decision without prior agreement.

"Wait a moment."

Shen Qian called out to Hu Feiwei, glanced at the Emperor Monkey beside him, thought for a moment, and with a flick of his wrist, the Ascension Token, symbolizing the position of the Heavenly Horse Keeper, reappeared in his palm.
