Chapter 23: The Celestial Star Chart
The Celestial Star Chart was large, ht
Yu’Er and Mei’Er carefully laid it on a large table that was in the chamber as they examined the map carefully
They quickly got into the act by tossing bronze coins rapidly on the table and rapidly arranging theers
Yi Ping was completely mesmerized by the eyes
All of a sudden, he was a little startled
It was because he had always regarded Yu’Er and Mei’Er as little sisters to be protected
He kneell enough how they had felt towards him but it was precisely for the same reason that he did not want to hurt them that he had never for once looked directly at them
But today, he was suddenly aware that standing in front of hi and sensual maiden in black translucent velvet dresses They were extremely beautiful and their expressions were sharp and brilliant!
He had never seen them in this perspective before!
His heart was suddenly pounding hard as he watched them quietly…
All of a sudden, Lingfeng stepped on his foot and he was freed fro, why do you step me for?”
Lingfeng sly at hi Skill, “You! You are as bad and lecherous as that Nangong Le!”
Yi Ping was startled, “I…”
Lingfeng had secretly linked the Great Emptiness Translucence Skill with him, so she was able to sense his e that she did not want to reveal to hi knew that the Great E, he could also block her as well But if he did not know, then there was no way for him to know this little secret unless he could reach the epitome of the Great Emptiness Translucence Skill!
Yu’Er said breathlessly as though she was afraid of losing her focus while she was still rearranging the bronze coins seee hly acco to the fifth, seventh pitches and this is arranged to the ninth harmonics I am accomplished only to the seventh harmonics but all I can do now is to try my best”
Mei’Er too gasped breathlessly as her eyes were everywhere on the Celestial Star Chart, “Sister, tell n here is the clue to the eighth harmonics?”
Yu’Er took a quick look before she exclaimed excitedly, “That may be! Let’s us try it!”
They began to reach out frantically with their niers on the map as they encircled the table at the same time, totally oblivious to everyone
Yi Ping was not the only one in awe The rest of thespeed!
Even the Stellar Heaven Fairy and the Ascension Goddess ere also highly gifted in music were in awe
The Ascension Goddess muttered, “In the past, the Eclipse and Axis Heaven Goddesses were said to be geniuses in mathematics and music If I didn’t see it today with my own eyes, I cannot believe it…”
Yi Ping was startled as he asked, “But they are not, aht?”
The Ascension Goddess sh attainment and are one of the first Ascendants members”
She winked at Shen Xingyue and said, “I didn’t see é sister for just a hundred over years and her attainment is now on par with me”
Shen Xingyue shi+fted unco
Yi Ping asked, “Just over a hundred years? Shouldn’t that be over a thousand years?”
The Ascension Goddess said solemnly, “Just over a hundred years”
Even Shen Xingyue was surprised, “Really? I know for sure you have ascended over a thousand years ago!”
The Ascension Goddess sé sister, you may not know this but time passes differently in the Celestial Realm than the Mortal Realm”
Everyone except for the Stellar Heaven Fairy, Lingfeng and the Universal Old Man expressed astonishment
Lingfeng explained calmly, “One year in the Celestial Realm is actually equivalent to ten years in the Mortal Realm”
The Ascension Goddess stole a glance at Yu’Er and Mei’Er before saying, “The Eclipse and Axis Heaven Goddesses have been in the Mortal Realine their level of divinity and attainment”
Yi Ping also stole a glance at Yu’Er and Mei’Er ere co the Celestial Star Chart He was a distracted by their conversations But he also knew that the intricacy heart formula of the Eternal Ice Palace was the Emotionless Rhyme and was one of the most focused heart intricacy skill in the martial fraternity
But at the sa softly
Lele’s expressions wereher hands to her bosoms
It was because they were both thinking of the sahter must be around four years old now if that was the case and they hadlife
Yi Ping thought regretfully, “Hopefully one day we are able to have a reunion together as a family but I will rather that you stay on the Mortal Realm and lead an ordinary life”
At this hter was a born Celestial and would not be affected by the Divine Calamity and was destined to ascend to the Celestial Realm But that was another story for now
Lingfeng and the Ascension Goddess were affected by Yi Ping’s downhearted thoughts but they did not knohat to say to him
All of a sudden, the Ascension Goddess tried to cheer hi, how come you have never tried to ask for my name?”
Indeed Yi Ping was iaze of her enthralling smile, “I…aren’t you the Ascension Goddess?”
He had only known her briefly so he never had the opportunity to know her real name And the truth was, they had start off as enemies!
The Ascension Goddess laughed softly, “I am sure everyone knows my celestial name by now But you don’t want to know your future wife name?”
Yi Ping was suddenly flustering
Lele said coolly, “What future wife? You still have to ask us if we peret that we still have an unfinished fight? Why are we letting a spy and an enemy into this chamber?”
Yunzi tried to hold her back but Lele broke free of her and had stepped forith a defensive stance
Yixian immediately said, “Lele, calm down please She…I…she is one of us now…”
Not only Lele, Lie Qing and Shen Xingyue had also stepped forward!
Lie Qing said coldly, “Anyone that tries to hurt Lele will have to fight me as well!”
Shen Xingyue added coldly, “It see us with disdain”
Yixian, Youxue, Yunzi, the Stellar Heaven Fairy and Lingfeng looked at each other, not knohat to do By right, they should aid Lele, Lie Qing and Shen Xingyue but they also knew that the Ascension Goddess see and was just upset that she was being challenged
So unless a real fight had occurred, then they would act
The Ascension Goddess arranged her white and gold dress as she addressed theant smirk, “Divine sword or no, I have already becoht juniors like you You can all come for me at the same time It isdisrespectful to me!”
She took a quick look at Yi Ping shyly before saying coolly to her challengers, “And the only one that is going to duo celestial with Yi Ping is me”
This raised the eyebrows of Yixian and Youxue who had immediately stepped forward at the same time too!
The Ascension Goddess said, “Good! Every hare order We shall determine the new hierarchy then with our martial skills!”
Youxue said coldly, “And only the top in the ranking will be allowed to duo celestial with Ping’Er then!”
Yi Ping was panicky as he quickly said, “There is no need for a real fight I a to duo celestial with anyone…”
But he was conored by the maidens as they stared intensely at each other!
The Universal Old Man was also pleading aloud, “All these martial treasures and artefacts, all these martial treasures and artefacts…”
He was panicky and was now grabbing as many scrolls as possible!
Shen Xingyue said coolly, “There must be a number one, a number two and a number three We cannot delay this inevitable anymore”
Even Yunzi was secretly agreeing with her, “Even though we are all close sisters and have a mutual respect for each other but still, there have to be an order I may not lose After all, I am also a celestial practitioner now…”
The Stellar Heaven Fairy was secretly excited, “I can be included too?”
Perhaps Yixian the Celestial Fairy knehat everyone was thinking so she said gently, “Everyone today have an opportunity to prove their martial skills and to deter’s first wife and I don’t mind that we determine the new hierarchy in this manner”
Now that Yixian had announced it, all the maidens were excited except for Yu’Er and Mei’Er ere still engrossed in deciphering the Celestial Star Chart in this huge cha secret alliances at the same time
Even the Ascension Goddess was secretly looking at Shen Xingyue who nodded lightly and they seereement to defeat the other maidens first!
But of course, et was still the Ascension Goddess because she was the roup!
The Stellar Heaven Fairy laughed softly as she looked at Lele, Yixian and Yixian, “I é mistress but you don’t have to be polite to ht”
