Chapter 198 - It's Her...
Chapter 198 – It’s Her…
"Young master, that's Di Tian from the Di family," replied Wang Ju.
The reason that Wang Wei took notice of Di Tian was because of what happened at the entrance door. This person was able to ignore his test. Unlike the other Heaven Chosens who had to use their powers to resist his True Will, this Di Tian straight up ignored it.
This has never happened before, so Wang Wei was concerned about this. Not to mention the fact that he has not figured out how he did it. He did feel a very vague fluctuation from Di Tian's body, however, with his senses, he could not detect it fast enough, nor detect what it was.
However, his intuition told him that he was familiar with this power–despite not really knowing what it was.
"After this meeting, use all your powers to discover any information about this Di Tian. And if you have to, use the power of my father's Shadow," ordered Wang Wei.
An act which greatly surprised Wang Ju as she had never seen the young master so serious about something. She realized that this was a very important task, so she nodded seriously.
As a matter of fact, Wang Wei was not the only person who acted this way. After Di Tian left from the True Dragon Inn and returned to his own manor, he first asked his head maid to use all the power of the Di Clan to gather information on Wang Wei.
After that, he took out a very ancient talisman; the breath of this talent displayed the passage of time, the evolution of Samsara. After injecting his origin essence in the talisman, something amazing occurred.
Throughout the entire Myriad Emperor World, countless people–both mortals and cultivators–suddenly awakening memories that were engraved deep into their bloodlines for countless generations.
After these memories were awakened, they received the same instruction: "Find all the information possible about Sacred Son Wang Wei."
Then, these people–who referred to themselves as the Sleepers–looked in the direction of Di Tian, bowed before saying, "As you wish, master." Then proceeded to execute his order.
The terrible thing about these Sleepers was the fact that they were everywhere, in all the sects and factions of the world–even in the Emperor Lineages. That also meant that some of them were also in the Dao Opening Sect.
The sudden awakening of these memories essentially swap their personality and beliefs. What's more this kind of thing is undetectable as these people still have the same soul.
So, even if these Emperor Lineages were to check whether another primordial spirit had taken over their bodies, they would not find anything.
Meanwhile, back in the True Dragon Inn, after a few people struggled to get inside, no other powerful Heaven Chosen seemed to be coming, so the host, Xi Shi, finally showed up.
The wooden floor at the center of the room started to move around, then she appeared from underground. Many people marveled at this kind of spectacle–of course that was beside Wang Wei. He has seen these kinds of things in his previous life.
However, he did appreciate it as it reminded him of the stars from his past life.
After Xi Shi appeared, all eyes were on her. However, many people were disappointed. Not because her beauty did not live up the standards, but because she was covering most of her face with a veil–only revealing her eyes.
Nevertheless, that was more than enough to captivate all the young geniuses present. They look at her with greed and desire, yet at the same, trying to restrain themselves to appear more gentleman-like. However, all of them wished nothing more than to rip that veil from her face.
As for Wang Wei, he scoffed after seeing this, then he waved his hand. Following which, a gentle breeze appeared and removed the veil from her face, revealing all her beauty to the world.
All the other people look at Wang Wei with a fierce look, as if saying how dare you blaspheme our goddess. At the same time, they were secretly happy because he did something that they did not dare to do.
However, soon enough, they were distracted by her beauty.
Wang Wei has to admit that this Xi Shi was indeed beautiful. It was as if all the concepts of beauty were added together to create her. All the flowers, all the magnificent views, all perfectly symmetrical things could not even come close to describe her beauty.
Every cultivator in the world knows nothing under Heaven and Earth is actually truly perfect; however, Xi Shi's beauty can be described as her perfect.
Her face did not have any form of powder on it. No, to be precise, any form of make up would actually insult her beauty.
After Xi Shi's face was revealed, there were only three people that were not totally enamored by her beauty.
The first being Jian Wushuang. Although he was distracted by her for a few seconds, then his sword intent flashed in his eyes and he was awakened from his stupor.
The second was of course Su Ya, and it was not because she was a woman. As a matter of fact, Xi Shi's beauty transcends gender. A perfect example of that was the fact that both Yan Liling and Wang Ju could not stop staring at her.
As a person who can easily control people's emotions and desires, of course Su Ya will not be captivated by another person's beauty. However, given the deep frown on her face, she was obviously not happy.
Of course the last person was Wang Wei. With his powerful will, of course he would not be charmed by a person's beauty. However, that did not stop him from admiring.
While Wang Wei was looking at Xi Shi, she was also looking at him. She was a little surprised at his action of removing her veil. When most men meet her, they always try to behave as politely as possible in order to draw her attention.
However, this Sacred Son of the Dao Opening Sect does not seem to care about being a gentleman in front of her. This was the first time that she experienced something like this, and it caught her by surprise.
Meanwhile, while Wang Wei was admiring Xi Shi's beauty, his heart suddenly began to beat rapidly as he felt that something very important was about to happen to him.
He lhen looked in the direction of the door, having a feeling that someone was about to enter. In a situation like that, Wang Wei should have used his Divine Sense to see who it was, but he did not. He waited for a few seconds with anticipation.
Then, another breathtaking woman walked in.
She had skin as white as jade, had black long hair, phoenix eyes and three small dots drawn on her forehead in red.
She was not wearing the traditional hanfu, but a modified version of a black cheongsam with golden red design all over. The cheongsam was a long one, reaching all the way to the floor. However, it was cut on the side so that every time she took a step, her long and beautiful legs were displayed to see.
She had ankle bracelets in both her feet, but she was not wearing any shoes. However, everytime she took a step forward, tiny runes appeared under her feet to prevent the ground from being blessed to be touched by her.
The arriving woman was beautiful, but that was not the most prominent quality of hers. The most prominent quality was her temperament.
She had a temperament that said that I am the only worthy person in the entire world. Among all beings, both past and present, among countless time and space, throughout eternity, throughout the birth and death and chaos, only I am worthy.
One might ask her: worthy of what?
She would answer "everything". Worthy of wealth and power, worthy to praise, worthy to be noble, worthy to be among the strong and powerful, worthy to find happiness in the Sea of Sorrow that is the world.
As soon as she walked in, she instantly took the limelight from Xi Shi by sheer will of her temperament. Although she may not be as beautiful as Xi Shi, she could not remotely compete with this girl's aura.
Unfortunately, the visions of the people in the room did not last long on her. And it was because they kept asking themselves whether they were worthy to look at her, to be in her presence.
The majority of them answered negatively, so they removed their gazes. As for the higher echelons of Heaven Chosens, they did not have an answer and did not want to find out, so they also removed their eyes, only giving a few side glances.
The only exception of course being Wang Wei. He was instantly fascinated by her.
'It's her…' he secretly thought to himself. He had seen her before during the Lust Part of the Pagoda Trial. She was the woman who appeared in the Illusion world and betrayed him after falling in love with her.
Now, the question remains: How did she appear in that trial?"
