Chapter 889: Heavenly Grand Ritual
Li Yunmu nodded. There was no need to speak if the five supreme-rulers were going to suppress themselves to supreme-ruler realm. Even if they were at the peak of their strength, they still might not be a match for Brunhilda one on one. The suppression would only result in them being crushed.
So there was no need to worry about it.
When Yu Rou sitting nearby heard the conversation between Li Yunmu and Brunhilda, she was somewhat shaken in her heart. When she had informed Li Yunmu, she was afraid that he would destroy the groom inviting competition. If he had attacked, he and Ancient supreme-rulerdess Brunhilda would be forced to suffer the attack of the entire Lanlou, and even their Lakshmi City would suffer a calamity.
But she had never expected that the two of them would discuss the matter of the competition as if talking about a trivial matter. Liu Bailing, who was sitting behind Brunhilda, also revealed a hint of suspicion. It was completely different from what she had expected.
Li Yunmu turned around and looked at holy daughter Yu Rou who was pondering something and slowly said, “Oh right, Yu Rou, take me to the Ancient supreme-ruler Lakshmi. I want to discuss something with her.”
Yu Rou nodded. She gave a strange look to Brunhilda sitting on the main seat, then turned around and walked outside the palace hall. Li Yunmu followed behind her. When both of them disappeared from vision, Liu Bailing relaxed. Her eyes looked outside the hall, betraying her listlessness.
Brunhilda turned her head and looked at Liu Bailing’s expression. A smile appeared at the corners of her lips and she said, “So, because he didn’t pay any attention to you, you are feeling disappointed?”
Liu Bailing snapped back to attention and shook her head. She looked at Li Yunmu’s principal wife and guiltily said, “Nothing. Elder sister, you mustn’t talk drivel.”
“I am not talking drivel. If you don’t like him, why did your expression fill with disappointment when he left? Your control on emotions is really weak,” Brunhilda said with a smile.
She could see that since the time Li Yunmu saved Liu Bailing at Pipa Clan, a favorable opinion of him had developed in her heart.
When Brunhilda came left Asura City, she wanted to get close to Liu Bailing to observe her. In truth, she didn’t mind Li Yunmu looking outside. After all, all men are pigs. As soon as they see a woman, they fall in love with her. Besides, they were immortal supreme-rulers, so it would happen often.
During her stay in Lakshmi City, Brunhilda came in contact with Liu Bailing and saw her naivety. She liked her pureness, so both of them stuck together like glue.
Liu Bailing looked at the faintly smiling Brunhilda and felt even more flustered in her heart. Why did a principal wife have the courage to talk to her like this? Could it be that she meant something else by her words and was in truth reminding her to not have any presumptuous thoughts?
“Really nothing, elder sister,” Liu Bailing said resolutely.
In the supreme hall in the depths of the music clans’ residence, Yu Rou was kneeling in front of a supreme altar.
“Yu Rou requests ancient supreme-rulerdess Lakshmi to appear!” she said with respect.
Li Yunmu, who was sitting on the side, looked at the jade pipa placed at the center of the supreme altar. Soon, a five-colored light blossomed out of the jade pipa, and the ancient supreme-rulerdess voice echoed in the room.
“Yu Rou, do you have anything to report to me?”
“It’s not Yu Rou who wants to see you, but me.” Li Yunmu looked at jade pipa and said with a calm expression, “You withdraw first.”
Yu Rou nodded, then walked outside the hall and closed the door.
Only two people, Li Yunmu and part of Ancient supreme-ruler Lakshmi’s soul remained in the chamber. When the five-colored light coming out of the jade pipa heard Li Yunmu’s voice, it trembled.
“It’s you! Weren’t you in Asura City? Why did you come to Lakshmi City?”
Li Yunmu sat down on the mat on the ground, then replied with a smile, “Why can’t I come to Lakshmi City? If I hadn’t come, then did you really intend to allow the competition between Little Bu and the five ancient supreme-rulers?”
After hearing his words, the ancient supreme-rulerdess hidden in the jade pipa snorted and said, “You should blame the four ancestors for this matter. If not for them, the five ancient supreme-rulers wouldn’t have discovered my peculiarity. Furthermore, if not for the competition, the five ancient supreme-rulers would’ve first swallowed Lakshmi City. If you have a better plan, then this competition can be stopped right away.”
“Naturally I have a plan, that’s why I have come to find you. As for the competition, let it continue. I want you all to make sure that the five ancient supreme-rulers focus themselves on Lakshmi City. I will infiltrate the supreme palace in the meantime and steal the Heavenly Grand Ritual,” Li Yunmu said while looking at the five-colored light coming from jade pipa.
Then Lakshmi heard the words ‘Heavenly Grand Ritual’, she turned silent. The three words were precious, even more rare than supreme treasures.
After a moment, she slowly said, “You want to steal Heavenly Grand Ritual… You should know that it is a supreme tool used by the five ancient supreme-rulers for treatment. If it was lost, they will be forced to initiate the battle of supreme-rulers prematurely and become even more cooperative with Lakshmi City. But I’m afraid that you won’t be able to steal the Heavenly Grand Ritual.”
Unable to steal it?
“Oh, I won’t be able to steal it? Why do you say that?” Li Yunmu asked.
“Heavenly Grand Ritual is the supreme treasure of Lanlou, and it is enshrined in the supreme palace. No ancient supreme-ruler has the authority for private use, but Asura has descended to the real world, and as for me, only a part of my soul remains.
“So the Heavenly Grand Ritual has fallen into the hands of the five ancient supreme-rulers. If they are using it to treat themselves, it is definitely in a sealed room which is covered by several layers of restrictions for strict management and protection.
“Even if the attention of the five ancient supreme-rulers is attracted to Lakshmi City, they will all be gathered in the sealed room. Speaking of which, if you want to steal Heavenly Grand Ritual, you must first pass through the defensive spell formation laid by a master supreme-ruler and without attracting the attention of the five ancient supreme-rulers. After that, you will have to infiltrate the sealed room and steal the Heavenly Grand Ritual from under the noses of the five ancient supreme-rulers.”
After hearing her words, Li Yunmu’s eyebrows creased slightly. He hadn’t expected that the five ancient supreme-rulers would treat the Heavenly Grand Ritual with such importance and would jointly protect it in a sealed room.
The spell formation between the supreme palace and the sealed room was even more thorny. If he forcefully attacked it, he could naturally get his hands on Heavenly Grand Ritual, but it would attract the attention of the five ancient supreme-rulers.
His plan was to initiate the second battle of supreme-rulers between the five ancient supreme-rulers and Asura, not to concentrate the attention of all the ancient supreme-rulers on himself.
[I have a method to get across the spell formation of the supreme palace,] the system suddenly said in Li Yunmu’s mind.
Li Yunmu frowned slightly, but the system had never cheated him. If it said there was a way to pass the formation, there really had to be a way. That meant that he only lacked the map of the supreme palace to use the opportunity when the competition was happening to steal the Heavenly Grand Ritual.
“You don’t need to worry about the spell formation. I can deal with it. Give me a map of the supreme palace,” Li Yunmu said.
He then though that the ancient supreme-rulerdess might not feel reassured so added a few more words. “Oh right, this stolen Heavenly Grand Ritual would delivered to Asura City so that the five ancient supreme-rulers don’t suspect Lakshmi City.”
