Chapter 451: Traces, Dantai Family

For He He Pingsheng now, seclusion was useless.

Because he had reached a bottleneck.

Unable to break through!

He stood in the pitch-black night sky, looking at the capital beneath his feet, his brows furrowed slightly.

Although he had settled his Master and sect before, now he could not settle himself.

What to do?

How to proceed?

Break through?

Hopeless!

There was simply no way to break through.

Find Qiao Qiao Huizhu.

No clues at all.

Qiao Qiao Huizhu seemed to have completely disappeared from between heaven and earth.

He He Pingsheng's gaze turned toward the direction of the Imperial Palace.

Perhaps, in the Imperial Palace of the Great Liang, he could find some traces and answers.

The next moment, he took a step forward, swept across countless spaces, and landed at the entrance of the Imperial Palace.

The night was deep; at the entrance of the Donghua Gate of the Imperial Palace, there were still four or five Golden Core Stage disciples guarding the city gate, and besides the Golden Core Stage disciples guarding it, there were countless Foundation Establishment Stage guards.

"Who goes there?"

"Stop!"

The general guarding the gate roared.

He He Pingsheng took a token out of his ring and said: "This junior requests an audience with Ancestor Zhen Yu!"

This token was given to him by Ancestor Zhen Yu back then, saying that with this token, he could travel freely through the Imperial Palace.

Sure enough, within a few breaths, a Golden Core Stage cultivator walked out and returned the token to He He Pingsheng: "Please follow me!"

After walking for a long time on the outskirts of the Great Liang Imperial Palace, they entered a seemingly dilapidated and vicissitudinous palace.

Ancestor Zhen Yu was sitting in the palace.

The person who led the way walked out, leaving only He He Pingsheng and Zhen Yu in the hall.

"Senior Zhen Yu!" He He Pingsheng said: "Apologies for disturbing you late at night; this junior is rude."

"No matter!" Zhen Yu's face was kind, and he said with a smile: "When I gave you the token back then, I said you could come find me at any time!"

"Why, have you encountered some difficulty?"

"Yes!" He He Pingsheng nodded and said: "My wife, Qiao Qiao Huizhu, went missing shortly after surviving the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation!"

"Oh?" Zhen Yu's brows twitched: "No clues? Do you know where she went?"

He He Pingsheng said: "I suspect now that it was a Soul Transformation powerhouse of the Qi Kingdom who captured her!"

"Now, she is likely trapped in the capital of the Qi Kingdom!"

"This..." Ancestor Zhen Yu shook his head: "This matter is not easy to handle... Little He, if you want to ask me to go and rescue her, I'm afraid it's absolutely impossible!"

"Our Liang Kingdom imperial family only has two Soul Transformation cultivators, and one must remain to guard the capital!"

"Even if I go alone, I cannot be the opponent of their three Soul Transformation cultivators!"

"Moreover, the Nine Kingdoms all promised on that Tiannian Mountain that once one's cultivation exceeds Soul Transformation, no one is allowed to go to another country to use force!"

"Soul Transformation cultivators do not start wars; this is a public convention!"

"Otherwise, with one strike, a capital city could be wiped out; what kind of karma would that be?"

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Zhen Yu looked at He He Pingsheng with an apologetic face.

He He Pingsheng said: "Senior, you misunderstood... Actually, I don't want you to go to the Qi Kingdom!"

"Oh?" Zhen Yu said: "Then what is this..."

"Senior!" He He Pingsheng's expression was extremely solemn: "Actually, it's not just my wife who went missing; you remember Xiao Xuan of the Qi Kingdom from before, right?"

"I remember!" Zhen Yu said: "He is that Void Void Linggen; his talent is not bad!"

"Yes!" He He Pingsheng said: "He also survived the Eight-Nine Heavenly Tribulation, and three months after surviving the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, he suddenly disappeared!"

"Ah?" Ancestor Zhen Yu's brows furrowed tightly.

He He Pingsheng did not continue speaking, but gave him time to think.

"I know!" Zhen Yu said: "I know your intention this time; you want to ask about the situation of the first peerless genius of our imperial family back then, Liang Liang Tianjian?"

He He Pingsheng cupped his hands: "Exactly!"

He He Pingsheng originally did not know about a person named Liang Liang Tianjian.

But before, during the Nine Kingdoms Competition, that Dantai Qi used a divine ability called 【Heavenly Sword Ice Pool】, and was then taken away by the Liang Kingdom for questioning.

Later, after Liang Liang Huaqiu's explanation, He He Pingsheng learned about Liang Liang Tianjian's life.

This person also survived the Eight-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and also disappeared without a trace after surviving the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation.

And this happened a thousand years ago.

This could not help but make He He Pingsheng think more.

Three people!

All survived the Eight-Nine Heavenly Tribulation.

All disappeared after surviving the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation.

This was too eerie.

For a time, He He Pingsheng even felt that their disappearance was highly likely related to the fellow Daoists who ascended to the Spirit Realm.

He He Pingsheng even felt, could it be that they were forcibly ascended?

Although this idea was ridiculous, there was no better explanation.

"Sigh..."

Ancestor Zhen Yu exhaled: "Liang Liang Tianjian was a person of the same era as me; according to the imperial family's seniority, he should be my nephew's generation!"

"This person had extraordinary talent and extremely high comprehension; he was the successor of our imperial family!"

"Unfortunately, after he broke through to Nascent Soul, he disappeared into thin air!"

"Without a trace, not a single clue!"

"Our imperial family searched back and forth for hundreds of years, but found no clues!"

"Some time ago, we did see that descendant of the Dantai family use that 【Heavenly Sword Ice Pool】 divine ability, and we finally had a sliver of a clue!"

"But after some investigation, we learned that this Dantai family is actually the family passed down by Liang Liang Tianjian's daughter!"

"Back then, Liang Liang Tianjian passed this divine ability to his daughter, and that is how the Dantai family has passed it down generation after generation!"

"Finally, we discovered that there were still no clues!"

"And after so many years, our imperial family doesn't want to investigate anymore; even if we investigated, what could we do?"

"It's just a conspiracy by the enemy!"

"Actually, without investigating, one can guess who is causing trouble!"

"It's nothing more than enemy countries or enemies!"

"If you want to get more news, you can go to the Dantai family and ask!" As Zhen Yu spoke, he took out a jade slip and said: "This is my token; after you arrive, give this thing to the head of the Dantai family, and they will naturally receive you!"

"This Dantai family is not in the Imperial Capital!"

"Nor is it in the Liang Kingdom!"

He He Pingsheng was immediately surprised: "Not in the Liang Kingdom?"

"Yes!" Zhen Yu said: "Their family is in the Chu Kingdom!"

"The Chu Kingdom is to the southeast of the Liang Kingdom, and it shares a border with one of our commanderies; this commandery is named 【Peacock Commandery】, and it belongs to the Chu Kingdom!"

"After arriving at Peacock Commandery, just ask around, and you will know where the Dantai family is!"

"Many thanks, Senior!" He He Pingsheng thanked Zhen Yu and left the Imperial Palace with the token.

After returning to the Tai Xu Chamber of Commerce and giving a few hurried instructions to Ling Ling Zhiwang, He He Pingsheng went directly to the Immortal Warship Plaza!

For very long distances, taking the official large ship was relatively fast.

Go early.

Only by finding clues and traces earlier could Qiao's safety be guaranteed a bit more. ===== CHAPTER 452 =====
