Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 461 Two Seniors
Xu Ping’an entered the Space-Time Gate and arrived within a cluster of palaces.
And these palaces felt very familiar to him.
"Is this the Holy Heavenly Sect?" Xu Ping’an looked at the cluster of palaces in astonishment.
The architecture of these palaces was exactly what he had seen in the ruins of the Holy Heavenly Sect.
However, the palaces here were newer.
Moreover, it seemed there were many people moving about within the sect, all wearing the same attire.
Among these people, besides humans, there were also many upright-walking Demon Beasts.
"Is this the time when the Holy Heavenly Sect still existed? Have I come to 180,000 years ago?" Xu Ping’an marveled inwardly.
He glanced around and realized this was indeed the Immortal Realm of the past.
The Immortal Qi was extremely rich, much denser than in the Spirit Realm.
But he was unable to absorb it.
Not only that, he discovered that these people also couldn’t see him, and he couldn’t touch them.
He appeared to be in the same space as these people, but in reality, he was not in the same space.
"Li Xuanqing and Xue Hu are gone; did they not enter the same space-time as me?" Xu Ping’an wondered inwardly.
"Forget it, let’s first see what is actually here," Xu Ping’an said to himself.
So he flew towards the main palace deep within the cluster of palaces.
Soon, he arrived at the main hall atop the mountain.
Entering the grand hall, Xu Ping’an saw two people.
A man and a woman, playing chess across a board.
The man was handsome and dashing, dressed in a white robe, exuding a strong scholarly aura.
"Wu Han?" Xu Ping’an was astonished.
Indeed, this man was the very man he had seen on the statue at the gates of the Holy Heavenly Sect.
The Sect Master of the Holy Heavenly Sect, Wu Han.
Opposite Wu Han sat a woman, her back to Xu Ping’an, yet she had the air of peerless elegance.
With her black hair cascading down like a waterfall, she wore a simple and elegant cyan dress, her whole being emitted an otherworldly aura of Immortal Qi.
Xu Ping’an tried to move around to see the woman’s face, but found that no matter how he moved, the woman always remained with her back to him.
It was as if the entire grand hall shifted with his movements.
"Could it be the Supreme Immortal Emperor?" Xu Ping’an seemed to have guessed something, faintly aware of the woman’s identity.
He hadn’t expected to actually travel to the time when Wu Han and the Supreme Immortal Emperor were playing chess.
Curiosity about these two legendary figures had always existed in Xu Ping’an’s heart.
One was the creator of the "Temporal Dao Principles," and the other was the owner of the Supreme Imperial Jade Seal.
In a way, Xu Ping’an had significant connections with both of them.
He did not know if he was here because of those connections, but he was aware that there must be some purpose for the Space-Time Gate bringing him here.
At this moment, the two were talking.
Xu Ping’an listened intently.
"Arguing with Xuanqing again?" Wu Han asked with a smile as he made his move, his expression elegant and scholarly.
"We didn’t argue; we went straight to blows," a voice rang out in the hall like the clash of metal, laced with a hint of authority and laziness.
"Who won?" Wu Han continued, smiling.
"I beat the crap out of her until she cried and called me grandma," the woman responded.
Wu Han couldn’t help but laugh, clearly not believing the woman’s words.
Xu Ping’an was utterly astonished.
Was this woman really the Supreme Female Immortal Emperor?
Why did she speak with the air of a gangster woman?
"There are juniors present, mind your image," Wu Han couldn’t help saying.
Xu Ping’an felt as if struck by lightning, his face filled with utter astonishment.
Juniors?
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёnovelkiss.com.
Was he talking about me?
Had Wu Han noticed him?
How could that be possible?
"Isn’t it said that a person within the Space-Time Gate can’t possibly be discovered by people from a past era?"
If it’s not me, then there is no one else inside this great hall, right?
Xu Ping’an’s heart was extremely shocked.
And the words of the woman were even more shocking to Xu Ping’an, while also confirming that the juniors they were referring to were indeed himself.
"This is quite interesting, I actually sensed the aura of my Jade Seal, it seems this junior has some connection with me?" The woman’s voice rang out, but she did not turn around or look around; instead, she remained lazily leaned against the back of her chair, watching the chessboard.
Although the woman did not turn around, Xu Ping’an could imagine it.
A woman of extraordinary beauty, lazily leaning against the back of the chair, her thin red lips curling into a light smile.
Her fair and delicate fingers fiddled with a black chess piece, exuding an air of contempt for the world.
"I also felt the fluctuations of the Time Fist Technique on him, it seems he has some connection with me as well," Wu Han followed with a laugh.
Xu Ping’an felt a chill run down his spine; these two were too powerful.
To think they could perceive his existence across space and time.
And even sense the fluctuations of the Supreme Imperial Jade Seal and the Time Fist Technique.
Even in his past life, he could not have had such abilities.
Were these two really of the Immortal Emperor Realm?
Is the Immortal Emperor Realm this powerful?
"Junior Xu Ping’an pays his respects to the two seniors," Xu Ping’an nonetheless said respectfully.
However, his words met with no response whatsoever.
"This junior couldn’t have been saluting to us, could he?" Wu Han said with a chuckle.
"Very likely, he probably thinks we can see him, but is unaware that we can only sense his presence and cannot pinpoint his exact location, let alone converse with him," the woman’s voice continued.
Upon hearing this, Xu Ping’an immediately felt extremely awkward.
These two really did have a wicked sense of humor, guessing what he was doing.
As it turned out, they could only vaguely sense his presence and could not have any further communication.
Xu Ping’an breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"He wouldn’t really believe what you said, thinking that we can’t pinpoint his location, would he?" Wu Han said with another laugh.
"If he believes that, then he’s too easy to fool, just like a greenhorn," the woman said again.
Xu Ping’an was completely speechless.
Are you messing with me here?
But he also essentially confirmed that these two truly couldn’t pinpoint his location nor communicate.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t be teasing him like this.
"Junior, since you’ve come, it must mean that it’s the will of heaven. You’re here for the fragments of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror, right?" Wu Han suddenly looked up into the void.
Xu Ping’an’s pupils instantly constricted.
Wu Han was looking right at his position.
"To reply to the senior, I am indeed here for the fragments of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror; please enlighten me, senior," Xu Ping’an immediately said.
However, the next moment, Wu Han shifted his gaze back with amusement and said, "Do you think he fell for it?"
Xu Ping’an was startled. An illusion technique?
Damn, Wu Han just used an illusion technique, so no matter where I stand,
what I see is Wu Han looking at me.
Xu Ping’an felt an urge to curse.
"So foolish, he must have fallen for it. I really don’t know if with his naivety, he will be able to comprehend your Temporal Dao Principles. You’ve lost," the woman indifferently remarked, then placed a chess piece and said.
"No, no, that doesn’t count. I was distracted just now; let’s play another game," Wu Han hastily said.
"No more games, I’m tired," the woman stretched idly, no longer paying attention to Wu Han.
"No, we must play. You’ll play another round with me. If you can win, I’ll tell you the embarrassing story about Xuanqing," Wu Han quickly said.
"Oh? Then I might consider playing another round," the woman perked up, sitting up straight once again.
Xu Ping’an was utterly without words.
These two were simply nothing like the elders they were supposed to be.
"Kid, I’m going to focus on the game now. The fragment of the Heaven-Penetrating Mirror you want is inside my statue. Break it and you’ll naturally get it. Understand the river of time well and don’t disgrace me. Now scram," Wu Han said without lifting his head.
The next moment, Xu Ping’an felt the world spin around him.
By the time he regained his bearings, he had reappeared in the outside world.
