Chapter 4

Outside the Divine Ruins, Jiang Lingyue was waiting patiently.

Seeing the figures walking out of the Divine Ruins one after another without bringing any news about the Great Emperor Jiang Taichu, she could not help but feel anxious.

Are they going to return empty-handed this time?

“Divine King, most of the people have come out. Could there be more people?”

She turned her gaze to the white-robed Divine King.

Upon hearing this, the white-robed Divine King’s expression was calm, and there was no ripple in his eyes. He did not even take a glance at the Divine Ruins.

“No need to worry!”

“The heavens determine everything. What should come will come eventually. Just wait patiently.”

“But…”

Jiang Lingyue wanted to say something, but in the end, she only sighed.

Seeing how calm the Divine King in white was, she could only suppress her anxiety and continue waiting.

Very quickly, another two hours passed.

At this time, no one was walking out of the Divine Ruins.

Boom!

Even the void tunnel opened by the sovereign weapon could not withstand the power of heaven and earth. So it was destroyed.

Seeing this, Jiang Lingyue’s body trembled, and her heart sank.

“Sigh…”

“Did we fail again this time?” Jiang Lingyue muttered bitterly.

At the same time, when the Divine Ruins’ void tunnel collapsed, the white-robed Divine King, who was as calm as a mountain, also opened his eyes slightly. His pair of deep eyes looked toward the Divine Ruins, and no one knew what he was thinking.

“Divine King, let’s go.”

“For the past 80000 years, we’ve tried many times but returned without success each time. It seems our ancestors didn’t place their hopes on this one too.”

“To enter the Divine Ruins again, we can only wait three thousand years later…”

Jiang Lingyue clenched her fists.

At this moment, with the collapse of the void tunnel, the tens of thousands of spectating creatures began to leave gradually.

Unknowingly, only the two of them were left.

The last bit of hope in Jiang Lingyue’s heart was destroyed.

“There’s no one left, Divine King.”

“Let’s wait for another hour!” A calm voice responded.

Although Jiang Lingyue had no hope, she did not dare disobey the white-robed Divine King’s will. Therefore, she could only wait patiently.

Whoosh!

After about 15 minutes, a strange figure arrived in front of them.

It was a tall man!

What made Jiang Lingyue feel strange was that she could not tell the cultivation level of the person in front of her. What shocked her further was that there seemed to be no life force in the person.

A puppet?

Her beautiful eyes flashed with a touch of surprise.

“The propose of your appearance is…”

“I would like to ask, do the words your Primordial Imperial race still count? Is it true that we can fulfill three wishes as long as we can find the Great Emperor’s body?”

“Of course!”

“The words of the Primordial Imperial race carry enormous weight. How can we lie?” Jiang Lingyue’s face was solemn.

She looked at Lin Wudao with anticipation.

“Do you know the whereabouts of my race’s Emperor’s corpse? Or could you have already successfully brought my race Emperor’s corpse out of the Divine Ruins?”

“No, I didn’t.” Lin Wudao shook his head.

Uh…

Jiang Lingyue was greatly disappointed by his answer.

“Then what are you planning to do?”

She did not have any hope!

Lin Wudao’s expression was indifferent to Jiang Lingyue’s reaction.

“I’ll ask you one more time. If I find something related to the Great Emperor, can I exchange it for a wish from the Primordial Imperial race?”

An item of the Great Emperor?

As soon as he said this, Jiang Lingyue and even the white-robed Divine King looked over.

Boom!

Just as they were bewildered, Lin Wudao took out Emperor Jiang Taichu’s identity token. In an instant, an ancient and majestic Emperor’s aura swept out in all directions.

Jiang Lingyue could not breathe.

But more than that, she was excited!

“Is this the identity token of the Great Emperor?”

She widened her eyes in disbelief.

Similarly, the white-robed Divine King’s gaze was also fixated on the identity token. There was an indescribable look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Wudao.

“This indeed the personal belonging of my race’s Emperor, and it’s also a symbol of his status. May I know where you found it?”

“In the Divine Ruins!” Lin Wudao replied indifferently.

“Can this item be exchanged for a wish from the Primordial Imperial race?”

“Sure!”

The white-robed Divine King gently nodded.

“I wonder what kind of you would like to exchange for this item?”

“I want a stalk of the medicine of immortality!”

Eh?

The medicine of immortality?

Jiang Lingyue frowned when she heard this.

The medicine of immortality was incomparably precious!

That was an unparalleled divine medicine that could extend the lifespan of a Great Emperor or even help them live a second life. But, with just an identity token, he wanted the medicine of immortality.

This was a little too much!

“What? Is this not possible?” Lin Wudao’s tone darkened as if he had noticed the change in Jiang Lingyue’s expression.

Upon seeing this, the white-robed Divine King smiled.

Whoosh!

He raised his hand and pointed. In an instant, a divine light streaked across the air. It was an ancient jade box.

Boom!

A mighty divine light gushed out when the jade box was opened. Within it, there was a physical manifestation of a true dragon, and its might was incredibly vast.

Lin Wudao felt his lifespan had increased significantly with just a single whiff.

“This is the True Dragon Immortal Medicine!”

“After consuming it, your lifespan will increase by 12000 years. So from now on, it belongs to you.”

The True Dragon Immortal Medicine?

Lin Wudao was shocked!

Initially, he had only wanted to test the waters. Who would have known that the Primordial Imperial race would be willing to take out the True Dragon Immortal Medicine to exchange for Jiang Taichu’s identity token?

“It seems like this item is extremely important to them.”

“Maybe there are other uses for it…” Lin Wudao thought to himself.

Although he had some doubts, he did not dwell on them too much. Jiang Taichu’s identity token was useless to him. However, if he could exchange it for the medicine of immortality, he would be more than happy to do so.

At that moment, he waved his hand and handed Jiang Taichu’s identity token to the Divine King in white.

Whoosh…

“That’s..!” The white-robed Divine King’s heart stirred as he sensed the ancient and heavy Emperor aura of the identity token and the familiar aura of the Primordial Imperial race.

Then, he looked at Lin Wudao with a hint of gratitude.

“Is there anything else?”

“Oh, there’s something I need to ask…”

“Just say it!”

The white-robed Divine King had a gentle expression.

“I want to ask if I’m under a curse. How do I remove it?”

Curse?

Jiang Lingyue’s pupils constricted when she heard that.

“You’re cursed?”

Her eyes were fixed on Lin Wudao as if she was trying to find some clues from him.

However, Lin Wudao ignored her and continued to stare at the white-robed Divine King.

“Curses are a strange and evil thing!”

“If a person is cursed and wants to remove it, there are generally two ways to do it. First, find the person who cursed and kill him!”

“The second is to use the power of external objects to dispel or purify the curse by force. Pure Divine Water, Vast Divine Tree, disaster-overcoming golden pill…”

The white-robed Divine King listed all the divine items in the world.

Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded.

“Thank you for the information!”

He cupped his hands and left without hesitation.

This trip had given him what he wanted.

On the divine boat, Jiang Lingyue looked at Lin Wudao’s departing figure with a face of shock.

“Divine King, is that a puppet?”

“No!”

“This person probably doesn’t want us to know his identity and background, so he used an incarnation to come here and take a look.”

An incarnation?

Jiang Lingyue was stunned.

“Those who can cultivate incarnations are all ancient and powerful existences…”

“There’s no need to pay too much attention to this matter!”

“We’ve had already gotten what we wanted, and he called what he wanted. So it’s a happy ending for both of us. As for who he is and what identity he has, it’s not essential.”

“All of this is just a transaction between us. We both get what we need.”

The white-robed Divine King said indifferently.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lingyue nodded.

“Divine King, Aren’t we looking for the body of the Great Emperor? This is only the Great Emperor’s identity token to exchange for the True Dragon Immortal Medicine. Isn’t that…”

“It’s not an identity token but a key!”

Key?

Jiang Lingyue was confused.

However, the Divine King in white did not explain this further.

At that moment, he waved his sleeves, and the divine boat under his feet instantly tore through the void. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared from this place.
