Chapter 55 055 Alarm Rings Out
"That girl has already reached the Immortal Palace!" she finally rebuked her harshly.
Qi Zhenmo's expression immediately softened slightly.
Song Chi waited for a while in front of the palace gate before Liu Yue Xianjun's voice rang out.
"Alright, the other four are in position. When they press their plum blossom handprints, you should simultaneously press the plum blossom in the central hall."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Chi felt four palace gates appear before him, and standing in them were Xue Rongzhan, Cui Luoying, Ye Qingyu, and Mo Shubai.
Actually, there is a fifth hall, and standing in front of these four halls is Cui Xue Ruo's stunningly beautiful figure in red.
At that time, six people pressed the plum blossom mark in front of the door at the same time.
The magnificent golden palace gates opened silently before Song Chi. However, on Cui Xue Ruo's side, celestial music filled the air, cranes soared into the sky, and auspicious clouds rolled in—it was as if the gates of a celestial realm had been opened.
Ye Qingyu and the other three quickly appeared beside Cui Xueruo.
As the five of them entered, Song Chi had already rushed in.
First, he leaped to a high place and peeled down the ancient musical scroll that was displayed high above. Without even looking at it, he put it into his storage ring.
He immediately went to two side halls and drank two cups of the suddenly appearing immortal wine. To be honest, Song Chi now had some doubts about those ascended beings and was genuinely afraid they might have brought some poison.
But the sudden explosion of consciousness before her eyes disregarded everything else, and she gulped down the immortal wine. It was either death or the poison taking effect. She had no choice.
However, after swallowing the celestial wine, the surging, endless desires gradually subsided.
However, Song Chi's body was still weak and she couldn't move at all. So she leaned against the wall and unfolded the scroll in this seemingly safe celestial palace.
What exactly is this ancient musical formula? Even after obtaining the celestial scroll, the main characters in the book still went through countless hardships to finally find a way to decipher it from the secret realm.
She had always suspected that the way the musical notes were recorded might be different. Then she opened it and found that it really was different.
"Wow!"
How are the main and supporting characters supposed to decipher this? It's actually a musical staff!
Song Chi guessed that this was probably the work of the previous transmigrator, Zuiyun Sanren. Moreover, it was very likely to avoid the detection of evil spirits.
After all, if the evil spirits want to break this method, they probably have to either go to the cage that these immortals prepared for them and fight to the death in that immortal palace, or they can only travel to the future and then come back.
But I doubt that evil spirits can cross over, otherwise Zuiyun Sanren wouldn't have used a donkey-like figure with musical notation.
Song Chi could easily learn this kind of score at a glance. However, she dared not look at it for long, fearing that if she memorized it all at once, her consciousness might be possessed by evil spirits. She had always had a photographic memory for memorizing scores.
Immortal Lord Liuyue chuckled at this. "What do you think that immortal scroll in your sea of consciousness is for? Of course, it's to evade the pursuit of evil spirits. Don't worry, those things are nothing special now, they absolutely cannot pierce through your sea of consciousness surrounded by immortal light."
She sounded even weaker now. It must have taken her a lot of effort to get all six immortal gates activated simultaneously.
"I need to prepare for the final celestial palace, and I won't be able to help you anymore. Be careful!"
After giving these instructions, Immortal Lord Liuyue even asked a rather gossipy question with a smile.
"Which of your many lovers do you like the most?"
Song Chi: "..." What little lover? Where did she get a little lover? This question truly left her speechless.
Having regained her strength, she ignored the pointless question and darted out of the palace gate.
Immortal Lord Liuyue followed her, laughing out loud. "I think all of them are quite good. If it were me, I wouldn't want to disappoint any of these beauties, so I would just marry them all."
These shameless words truly left Song Chi speechless. The claim that Immortal Lord Liuyue married four husbands back then is probably false. Judging by his desire to give every handsome man a home, he probably married seventeen or eighteen!
Hearing her inner monologue, Immortal Lord Liuyue burst into laughter. "Life is meant to be lived to the fullest, to be carefree and unrestrained. What in this world can possibly stop me, Ji Liuyue?"
Song Chi then learned that this person's surname was Ji. This was someone not recorded in historical annals. All that was known about Immortal Lord Liuyue was her Daoist title; her past had been quietly erased by her. It was also unknown what connection she had with the Ji family of the Canghai Dynasty's royal family.
Of course, there's no way to answer that. After that laugh, Immortal Lord Liuyue vanished without a trace, like a gust of wind.
Song Chi felt that the celestial aura of the palace behind him had suddenly vanished, losing its previous vibrant and golden appearance.
She was quickly thrown out of the barrier and landed in the lake outside. The next instant, she was brought to her master's side by his spiritual power.
"Are you injured anywhere?" Master immediately asked with his divine sense. Seeing that she was unharmed, he then went to check on the figures that had flown out.
Only after seeing the man in blue supporting the woman in red who was spitting blood as they leaped away did he quickly glance at Song Chi.
Mo Shubai helped Cui Xueruo fly out. When Cui Xueruo went to retrieve the musical note, dark clouds churned in the hall, and evil spirits appeared, severely injuring her. In fact, the other four, including Mo Shubai, all had slight blood trickling from their lips and pale faces. They were also seriously injured.
At that moment, several Venerables and Immortal Alliance Elders rushed over, fed the five people healing pills, and then made them meditate on the spot.
On the Cui family's side, an elderly man with white hair stood guard beside Cui Xue Ruo, presumably asking her a few questions with his divine sense.
Then the white-haired old man nodded slightly to the crowd, his expression clearly conveying the meaning: The musical score was in his grasp!
At that time, all the bigwigs were overjoyed.
This white-haired old man was none other than Venerable Baiyun, the patriarch of the Yunji Holy Land. He then personally led Cui Xueruo away, with the Cui family members surrounding her. Even Cui Luoying was only guarded by a Nascent Soul elder; the rest of the family protected Cui Xueruo as she left.
This ancient musical score will be placed in a secret chamber in the Yunji Sacred Land, where it will be guarded day and night.
But these bigwigs are probably going to be completely baffled. That musical staff isn't from a system at all. They'll rack their brains trying to figure out how to interpret the notes.
Song Chi wouldn't concern herself with these matters. The immortals had already arranged everything; Cui Xue Ruo and the others would find the answer to the musical rules in the final immortal palace, so she didn't need to worry about it. In short, she had successfully completed her mission.
She quickly followed her master back to the guild hall with the injured Mo Shubai.
Mo Shubai was seriously injured this time; he was the most seriously injured among the four protectors. Next was Ye Qingyu. On the other hand, Cui Luoying, Cui Xueruo's uncle, probably wasn't a legitimate protector after all. He and Xue Rongzhan were not seriously injured and recovered after only one afternoon of meditation and healing.
Ye Qingyu didn't finish healing until 9 PM that evening.
Only Mo Shubai's side didn't finish healing until the hour of Yin (3-5 AM). This was only possible because Venerable Xueqiao helped him unblock his meridians and heal his injuries.
At that time, Venerable Xueqiao spoke to Youqin and Song Chi, who were guarding outside the door.
"Your senior brother is fine now, go back and rest."
You Qin bowed and left. Seeing that Song Chi hadn't moved, You Qin covered her mouth and smiled. Judging from her expression, she probably wanted to see some gossip, but she was too embarrassed to stay, so she could only leave with a smile.
Song Chi hadn't left yet because she still needed to give Mo Shubai an antidote. The toxicity of the peach blossom pill had been somewhat suppressed by Mo Shubai's antidote, though it had temporarily neutralized its effects. She estimated it hadn't been completely neutralized, and she needed to feed it to him quickly.
When Venerable Xueqiao saw that Song Chi had not left yet, he couldn't help but curl his lips in disapproval.
He said to Mo Shubai, who was straightening his clothes, "That girl is quite thoughtful; she's still here and hasn't left."
This was just a casual remark, but Shu Bai looked somewhat embarrassed.
For some reason, Venerable Xueqiao felt that Shubai might have really fallen in love.
Today's Immortal Alliance Grand Competition, after Song Chi's outburst, Venerable Xue Qiao noticed that although some Venerables were eager to watch the spectacle, seeing the look of pity on Shu Bai's face, many of them could no longer laugh.
This is naturally because, since Shu Bai is the destined lover appointed by Immortal Lord Liuyue, he cannot have feelings for other women.
However, soon, several figures appeared beside the Cui family member in front of the Immortal Palace, the first two being Ye Qingyu and Shu Bai. The Venerables breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Then, Su Yu, Ji Minghuang, Jiang Linyue, Su Qiwu, and others, including the four disciples of the four great immortal sects and protectors such as Xue Rongzhan and Cui Luoying, all came to Cui Xueruo's side, and the expressions of the venerable ones became even more relaxed.
Only Venerable Xueqiao felt unwell. This was because, in front of the left hall gate, there was only Song Chi, a solitary figure in white robes.
But this girl won't just be alone this time. I'm afraid she's destined to experience heartbreak in the future as well.
It was only because the seal on the Flying Immortal Platform was broken 100,000 years ago that the two guardians of the destined person initially admired other men. However, after experiencing various tribulations, they were still devoted to the destined person. The three of them, along with other guardians, finally broke the seal on the Flying Immortal Platform and restored the prosperity of this world.
The destiny that belongs to the destined person will naturally belong to her in the end.
Song Chi is destined to be heartbroken from now on.
In his heart, Venerable Xueqiao actually valued the pairing of his two disciples. How rare was Shubai's tenderness! In addition, Venerable Xueqiao was also moved by the pure and beautiful nature of the two, and felt that it would be wonderful if the two could stay together for a long time.
But fate is fickle. Things will inevitably change from now on!
Song Chi, it seems, has truly fallen for him this time, and is still waiting at the door, unwilling to leave. He'll probably need to say a few words to his senior brother to ease his longing before he'll finally go.
Venerable Xueqiao thought that perhaps he should break up the two lovers who only had a vague affection for each other.
"It's so late, and she still won't go to rest. Fine, I'll take her away. You get some rest!"
Master Xueqiao gave these instructions and was about to leave when he heard Shubai's hesitant tone.
"Master, how about letting me meet my third junior sister?"
"Whatever!" Seeing that this person was probably really tempted, Venerable Xueqiao felt a pang of pain in his heart.
The more you cherish feelings, the more intense the pain becomes. But since the two are destined to be apart and suffer in the future, it's better to sever these feelings now.
Venerable Xueqiao immediately made up his mind to break up the couple, so he scolded them with a stern face as soon as he left the house.
"It's so late at night, why aren't you going home to rest? Come with me."
Song Chi watched as her master, with a look of utter disbelief, swept her away with a flick of his sleeve. She was speechless. But thinking about it, it made sense; after all, she had forcibly kissed Mo Shubai. Her master's reaction was understandable.
Moreover, it's likely that Mo Shubai was embarrassed to see him, which is why her master reprimanded her and took her away.
Look at the mess this has made. Song Chi felt that the consequences of breaking the seal were nothing compared to this upsetting matter, which was truly enough to make her suffer.
Fortunately, Mo Shubai put on his clothes and went out at that moment. Song Chi quickly threw the antidote pill over to him.
"Senior Brother, this is an antidote pill. Take one pill every day for the next seven days to remove the toxicity of the love potion."
She wanted to say sorry, but meeting Mo Shubai's cold gaze, she bit her lip and couldn't bring herself to say it. That kind of thing couldn't be resolved with just an apology.
Seeing the two locked eyes, their expressions a mixture of unspoken words and shyness, Venerable Xueqiao's alarm bells rang even higher.
He immediately teleported away with Song Chi, and then confined her for half a month. This was because the sect would be returning to the Azure Sword Sect in half a month.
Venerable Xueqiao even planned to take Song Chi on a journey. After all, she had reached the Golden Core stage, and it was time for her to go out, broaden her horizons, and expand her mind, which would benefit her future enlightenment.
In this way, they wouldn't see each other for ten or twenty years. The budding affection between them would then be almost completely severed.
