Chapter 234: Searching with an Array

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Invincible Heavenly Palace had hundreds of immortal pavilions for a little over 200 people. That was why Lonemoon allowed the disciples to choose any pavilion that they wanted. The disciples – by some strange work of chemistry – all decided to stay in the houses surrounding Shen Ying’s rear hall. Within a few seconds, they arrived at Xuan Tong’s pavilion.

Xuan Tong’s immortal pavilion was different from the others’, which were all surrounded by rich immortal Qi. Xuan Tong’s did not have a single immortal herb in front of it. Instead, there were all sorts of plants – potatoes, red potatoes, radishes- even spring onions and garlic.

Lonemoon pursed his lips. He had no idea what Xuan Tong needed all of these things for. Glaring at Shen Ying, he thought, this is all your fault!

The others did not seem to notice this exchange between Lonemoon and Shen Ying. Instead, they did not think the plants that Xuan Tong was growing were any different from any other immortal herbs. They entered the premises from a small road round the side of the pavilion. Yu Hong picked up a token and undid the prohibition array set up around the immortal pavilion. Then, she opened the door.

Compared to the garden outside, the immortal pavilion felt extremely cold and empty. There was no furniture inside the pavilion – only a mat where Xuan Tong probably sat. By the window, there was a white jade vase holding a stalk of flower that was emanating immortal Qi.

Lonemoon released his divine perception and searched the premises. Then, he conjured a tracking seal. Yet, he did not find anything. Xuan Tong was indeed gone, but where could she have disappeared to?

“Little Ying... Sect Master, Elders!” Roasted Chicken Gal anxiously scanned the three people in the room. “Little Tong is of a young age, but she has always been very obedient. She has never made us worry like that before. She would not leave without notifying someone first. Something must have happened to her!”

Lonemoon frowned deeply. “Yu Hong, did you send the disciples to search for her outside the Heavenly Gate? Especially at the islands surrounding the palace?”

“We already looked there!” Yu Hong nodded. “We already searched at the hundreds of islands below the Heavenly Palace. We also notified all the country emperors, but nobody has gotten back to us as of yet.”

Where could she have gone? He turned to look at Shen Ying, who was beside him. “Can you tell what happened?”

Shen Ying shook her head. Her gaze fell on the flower by the window. “There’s nothing?”

“You can’t tell either?” Lonemoon turned the jade flute over in his hand. “What exactly happened?”

“Should we ask Salted Fish?” Shen Ying suggested.

“Salted Fish?” Lonemoon paused, then reacted. “You mean Chen Ge!”

Oh yes, Xuan Tong was connected to Chen Ge. Perhaps he could find her. What’s more, Chen Ge came over to their palace every two or three days ever since the Invincible Sect moved here. He would even look for various excuses to send immortal weapons to Xuan Tong. Even the blind would be able to see that he fancied Xuan Tong. In any case, all of them came from Feng Cang continent – it was completely reasonable for them to keep an eye out for one another.

Yet, Xuan Tong hated to see him. Nine out of ten times, she would decline to meet him. She never accepted a single gift and even borrowed Lan Hua’s and Tao Shu’s weapons just to spite him. One of them was a talented Celestial Emperor and the other was a professional weapon refiner who could make even better weapons than the ones Chen Ge had. Everytime Chen Ge saw Xuan Tong using those weapons, he would retreat defeated. Yet, two days later, he would come back again.

The entire Invincible Sect, including Lonemoon, had high hopes for their relationship. The fact that this was departing from the novel aside, although Chen Ge was not incredibly strong, he was a Celestial Emperor after all. After all that they’ve been through, he deserved their trust.

“Yu Hong, hurry up and send people to the Heavenly Palace in Feng Cang. Invite Celestial Emperor Chen Ge over here,” Lonemoon immediately instructed. “Go over there from the transportation array in our palace!” The day that Yi Qing was coronated, all the Celestial Emperors came to give Invincible Sect celebratory gifts and to return their debts. They also created transportation arrays that led to their respective continents. This made travelling between continents much easier.

“Yes,” Yu Hong nodded.

“Chef should go!” Shen Ying turned to Yi Qing for some reason and said, “He’s faster.”

“Yes, Master!” Yi Qing did not object. In a flash, he was gone.

A moment later, he reappeared, clutching something in his hand. He threw it and said, “Here!”

Lonemoon: “...”

Yu Hong: “...”

Chen Ge: “...”

That was too freaking fast, right? Was that an invitation? It was kidnap!

——————

“What? Lady Xuan Tong is missing!” Chen Ge exclaimed. He immediately got to his feet. “Isn’t she in isolation? How can she be gone!”

“We’re not sure,” Lonemoon shook his head.

Chen Ge’s expression fell. “But... who could have entered the Heavenly Palace and kidnapped Lady Xuan Tong? This is Invincible Heavenly Palace after all.

We invited you here to ask you if you have any way to locate her.” Xuan Tong was still in the midst of ascending and her immortal Qi was unstable. She was not to be disturbed. If they did not find her as soon as possible, she could really be in a dire situation.

Chen Ge glanced at Lonemoon, looking anxious. He heaved a huge sigh and said, “I know what you mean...”

Chen Ge already found out that Xuan Tong was the human form of his demon seed and mental demons when he became a Radish and summoned Xuan Tong. “Although Xuan Tong’s soul and mine were one, she has already gone through several rounds of reincarnation. She’s already an independent soul. What’s more, the demonic Qi in her body is all gone. Apart from a slight telepathic connection, I am no longer linked to her.” This telepathic connection was not even strong enough for Chen Ge to locate her as well.

“What should we do then?” Qi Chengyu was beginning to panic. One could say that she brought Xuan Tong up single handedly. Naturally, she was more worried than anyone else.

“Junior Sister Little Hong,” Shen Ying suddenly called, tugging at Yu Hong’s sleeve. “Call Boss Lan down.”

“What are you calling him-” Lonemoon paused mid-sentence before he realised the reason. His eyes widened. “You mean his Radish Array- Pui, I mean Heart Entrapping Array!”

That’s right, the Heart Entrapping Array allowed Chen Ge to pull Xuan Tong over the last time. He would be able to do it again now.

“Yu Hong, hurry!”

Yu Hong realised this and her eyes brightened. She nodded and said, “Yes!” Then, she ran off to call Lan Hua.

Lonemoon pondered for awhile before asking Chengyu and Feng Ying to bring Radish over just in case. Then, he retrieved several immoral meridians and placed them on the garden in front of Xuan Tong’s immortal pavilion. At the same time, he dug a huge pit.

By the time everything was in order, Lan Hua and Radish arrived. Lan Hua was quite trustworthy. After hearing a brief explanation and realising that the Shortie was missing, he quickly set up the array.

Everybody in the yard turned to look at a certain Celestial Emperor in white robes.

Chen Ge paused, realising something. He raised his hands cooperatively and said, “I know! I have experience in this.” Then, he jumped into the pit Lonemoon dug. Chen Ge thought about the fact that the person that was missing was the person he fancied. He asked worriedly, “Do you have to put some soil on top of my head or something?”

Lonemoon: “...”

Lan Hua: “...”

Shen Ying: “...”

Everyone: “...”

Was he suffering withdrawal symptoms from being a radish? What does he want soil on his head for? Why doesn’t he grow some leaves on his head then?
