Xuanjizi stroked his beard and explained:
"Before you entered the Divine Martial Realm, your consciousness was not able to actively enter the Heavenly Disc Space."
This time it was triggered passively by a stimulus, because someone was forcibly spying on the position of the celestial compass.
To protect you, your still-developing master, the Heavenly Plate reacted instinctively by temporarily pulling your consciousness into this space to avoid outside prying eyes.
Qin Zhaoyue was startled, a chill running down her spine: "Who?!"
“The holders of the ‘territory’ and the ‘personal sphere’ work together to try to pinpoint your location.”
"What are they planning to do knowing my location?" Qin Zhaoyue asked anxiously.
"They probably want to invite you back to the Tianyan Sect."
"Please?" Qin Zhaoyue's vigilance was heightened. "You don't mean to kill me, steal my treasure, or take the Heavenly Disc, do you?"
"Probably not."
First of all, even if you are killed, Tianpan will automatically return to the Tianyan Sect's sacred land, waiting for the next destined one.
Even I, an old man, am not entirely clear about the conditions for recognizing a master. Perhaps all the holders throughout history were time travelers?
"Secondly, they probably wouldn't dare to kill, wouldn't dare to bear the enormous and terrifying consequences."
I speculate that killing a holder recognized by the Heavenly Compass would result in karmic retribution.
The most likely outcome would be not only a complete breakdown of one's future and a regression in cultivation, but also the susceptibility to inescapable misfortune, with the rest of one's life plagued by unhappiness.
"Of course, perhaps they have found a way to connect cause and effect."
After all, I've been trapped here for many years; it's possible that the Heavenly Evolution Sect has made a breakthrough.
Upon hearing his explanation, Qin Zhaoyue felt a slight sense of relief, but her anxiety quickly returned.
No, it's using "maybe" and "perhaps" repeatedly, there's not a definite answer at all!
Even if they don't dare to kill, they might imprison you.
For example, locking her in a dark, sunless dungeon, giving her only a bowl of cold porridge and a hard, dry steamed bun each day...
The thought of that scene was even more unbearable for her than being killed outright.
No, absolutely not!
The way of cunning must be firmly and thoroughly implemented.
Play it safe and develop your strength cautiously, don't be reckless!
Having received the intelligence, Qin Zhaoyue gazed at Xuanjizi's somewhat ethereal figure and cautiously asked:
"So, old man, are you even alive now?"
Xuanjizi's light and shadow flickered slightly: "That depends on how you define 'living'. I have self-awareness, I can think, and I can communicate with you. From the perspective of consciousness, I guess I can be considered alive."
"It won't suddenly disappear with a 'poof' because of some kind of energy shortage, will it?"
"Not for now," Xuanjizi replied directly.
"The celestial disc forms its own space, which is extremely mysterious and maintains this wisp of consciousness imprint so that it does not dissipate."
However, I am not currently the master of the celestial realm; I am confined to this small area and unable to move freely.
"Hang in there, my friend," Qin Zhaoyue clenched her little fist to encourage him.
"If I work hard and reach the Divine Martial Realm, I might be able to take control of this Heavenly Disc. Maybe then I can let you out for a stroll?"
She changed the subject, offering earnest advice:
"So, let's stop thinking about this and worrying about 'Tao' and 'Tao'. Just stay put and wait for my good news."
Xuanjizi curled his lip, "You little girl, you really have a way with words."
"Honest advice is hard to hear, but it's good for you," Qin Zhaoyue replied with a smile.
"Alright, alright, stop rambling." Xuanjizi waved his hand impatiently.
"The fluctuations in the celestial compass have stopped, and the outside world's prying eyes should have receded. You are safe now, go back."
"Hey, you old man, another five cents..."
Before she could finish speaking, everything went black before Qin Zhaoyue's eyes!
When I opened my eyes again, a familiar, youthful face came into view.
She looked terrified and anxious, as if she was about to cry.
"Huh? Xiao Jiu, what are you doing riding on me?"
Liao Yuanzheng knelt dejectedly on the cold gold bricks, his heart ashen, when he suddenly heard this sound.
Suddenly jolted awake, he looked up in disbelief, his old eyes wide as he stared at the bed.
The sixth princess, who had just been unconscious and whose cause of death could not be determined, was now staring straight at him with clear, bright eyes!
"Oh, Physician Liao, it's been a long time."
Liao Qingyuan: ...
"Sixth Sister!" "Sixth Sister!"
The crowd gathered around the bed rushed forward.
The Third Princess, Qin Zhaowan, reacted the fastest, leaning closer to the bedside, her voice trembling slightly:
"Sixth Sister, are you...are you alright?"
Qin Zhaoyue frowned slightly, her small face showing a pained expression.
With a weak and listless motion, she raised a slender finger and precisely poked Xiao Jiu, who was almost entirely lying on her chest.
"Something's happened...something big!"
Could someone please move this heavy little piglet?
If you keep suppressing this, you'll really have to prepare for my funeral.
"You're so annoying!" Xiao Jiu puffed out her cheeks and immediately started pounding her pink little fists on Qin Zhaoyue's shoulder like raindrops.
"Ugh," Qin Zhaoyue cried out dramatically, glancing around accusingly:
"Hey! You older brothers and sisters, are you just going to stand by and watch her commit violence? Do something about it!"
As Xiao Jiu pounded away with all her might, the glistening little pearls fell with a pattering sound, her voice trembling with sobs as she accused him:
"That scared me to death! Sixth sister, you're so mean, so incredibly mean!"
A helpless smile flashed in Qin Zhaoyue's eyes. She stretched out her arm and pulled the tear-streaked little girl into her arms, patting her back.
