Chapter 2567

There is no round-the-clock surveillance here, but on the surface there are two great immortals, uh……

Yet He Lingchuan said to Duan He Yun: "Master Duan, if you want A Lian to speak her willingness, you probably need to win her favor first."

Everyone was startled, this topic shifted too quickly, and besides, the two were almost at the door. Is the Emperor not planning to act immediately?

Duan He Yun had been pondering this matter, and he replied offhand: "She is very clever, she won't agree."

"If you can make her happy and promise her that even after signing a contract with the Heavenly Venerable Hegu, she can still be this happy. Do you think she will agree? After all, she is still a naive child, a couple of candies make her beam with joy." Hu Xin advised, "She regards you as her father, naturally close to you. Isn't there plenty of ways to coax a child?"

Duan He Yun was somewhat moved, for Hu Xin's words made sense. Even though he did not want the Heavenly God Hegu to mark her too soon, some things are not subject to his own will.

Having served the Heavenly Palace for many years, Duan He Yun is quite clear on this point.

"Besides giving candy, what other methods do you have?"

He Lingchuan immediately looked left and right, wanting to speak but hesitating.

"Speak freely, only I can hear here." Not far away, the one holding out in defiance closed his eyes, as if asleep, "Constant Phosphorus Immortal Venerable basically ignores affairs outside Liuli Sea."

He Lingchuan gave a bitter smile: "If I say this method, I fear Master Xiao will have me pared down to skin and bone."

Duan He Yun just laughed: "Don't worry, with me here, you'll be fine."

The people in Doukou Garden: "Pah!"

Zhu Xiuer even laughed: "Scoundrel, are your words irresponsible?"

The administrative authority of Lingyun Palace is entirely held by Xiao Ping; can Duan He Yun truly protect whoever comes?

Of course Duan He Yun does not think so, and He Lingchuan does not care, but he still said feigningly: "I'll give you an idea, use it or not as you wish. But if anyone asks, I'll say I have nothing to do with this idea, please Master Duan don't give me away."

Duan He Yun replied casually: "What do you think I am? Rest assured."

So He Lingchuan lowered his voice further: "Just let A Lian have her wish fulfilled first."

"What do you mean?"

"You said before that as long as she speaks her agreement, you'll take her out for a walk? Why not first give her a reward, take her to play in the northern suburbs of Baishong City. She'll be happy, maybe then she'll nod in agreement, and you won't lose much."

In Doukou Garden, Mingke Immortal and Ling Jinbao simultaneously exclaimed: "I'll go!"

"Worthy of the Emperor, we here are still thinking how to kidnap Duan He Yun, or get the body of the Hidden God King out, yet the Emperor has already stepped three paces ahead!"

"Let him voluntarily send A Lian out, saving us much risk!" Ling Jinbao raised his thumb, "High, this move is indeed high!"

Zhu Xiuer glanced at the two, fell silent for two breaths.

"What does that mean?"

It only saw these two goods flattering.

Sending A Lian out, what relation does it have to their current plan's target?

"This……" Duan He Yun pondered, "Leaving the palace?"

A Lian's last outing left her overjoyed, and she even played hide-and-seek with Lingyun Palace.

She is especially fond of the candies and pastries of Baishong City.

"Lingyun Palace originally would release some divine body puppets, to observe their natural performance in the wild. I recall, the next one is not far off?"

Duan He Yun answered casually: "Yes, just these few days. Deng Yanlong should also have notified you."

The wild release experiments are periodic, occurring every so often.

He Lingchuan immediately said: "A Lian was originally one of them, you can perfectly use the reason of observation and research to take her out again."

Duan He Yun nodded.

Indeed, "wild release" is also one of Lingyun Palace's research methods, usable on other divine body puppets, why not on A Lian?

Afraid she'll run away? Just do a good job of positioning, a divine gaze will do.

The "wild release" experiment originally falls within his authority, he doesn't even need to consult Xiao Ping.

"Children naturally have no resistance to the outside world's dazzling novelty. Even if Master Xiao and the Heavenly God Hegu inquire, you can openly say this is also to eliminate her resistance, so she agrees sooner." He Lingchuan added, "You originally meant this, right?"

These words went straight to Duan He Yun's heart:

"Yes!"

Duan He Yun looked at him: "Your idea is not bad."

He Lingchuan laughed: "Ah, I haven't given you any ideas."

Duan He Yun also laughed: "Yes, you haven't, you're just here to receive divine body fragments."

As they spoke, the two brought the cloud carriage toward the Liuli Sea entrance. He Lingchuan finally reminded Duan He Yun: "The convoy from Yikouzhen to Baishong City will depart early at Shen hour, because the city will be bustling with the Spring Yuan Festival at night, making vehicle passage inconvenient."

"Mm good." Duan He Yun nodded, "I need to rush back to Huayu Lou first to see A Lian. Remember to bring her a rabbit later."

He still kept this matter in mind.

Huayu Lou is his exclusive experimental field, obviously Duan He Yun's work is as busy as Dong Rui's.

He Lingchuan laughed: "Rest assured."

Having received Duan He Yun's entrustment, "Hu Xin" can now openly go see A Lian.

Wang Zhujiang is still working at the cliff base, Constant Phosphorus Immortal is still resting between the cliffs, Liuli Sea remains windy and surging.

Next, the two left Liuli Sea and returned to Yun Tai.

He Lingchuan also took a moment to look at his wrist, huh, the mark is indeed gone. Earlier Duan He Yun had stamped him and himself with a gilt gold mark, which allowed entry into Liuli Sea.

After such a round trip, the mark and the gold light both disappeared.

He Lingchuan has a Hu Xin seal in his hand, capable of stamping two kinds of seals, one is one-time, called a "one-return seal", for example, he and Xiao An earlier followed Wang Guan into Million Mountain, the stamp they received was exactly a one-time seal, which becomes invalid after passing through Yun Tai once, thus it allows entry but not exit, or exit but not re-entry, unless stamped again.

This trick is especially useful for managing laborers, allowing them to easily not escape Million Mountain.

The other kind of seal has the effect of allowing one entry and exit into a small world.

Enter once, exit once, then it becomes invalid. So every entry and exit requires stamping.

This is called a "round-trip seal", the kind managers stamp for themselves, it seems Duan He Yun's seal is also like this.

……

Duan He Yun returned to Lian Valley, while He Lingchuan brought the cloud carriage back to the small world of Baiwan Mountain.

This cloud carriage can follow a person, needing only to be activated with a talisman seal.

Upon returning to Baiwan Mountain, Zhu Xiuer sighed repeatedly:

"The Hidden God Monarch was clearly right before our eyes just now; if only we could have snatched him away in one grab."

Opportunities for the Nine Abyss to enter the Liuli Sea are few, and it remains unknown when the next one will be.
