Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 282 – Ming Yufei, the Unmarried Imperial Consort

The records of the Tongtian Pavilion are extremely complicated, consisting of texts and patterns recorded by various members during the chaos of the Pan Yang Rebellion.

These members of the Tongtian Pavilion often carry a book monster and a pen monster with them to record what they see and hear. They are more like observers who travel through this continent, detached from the affairs of the continent.

When the Pan Yang Rebellion broke out, the Tongtian Pavilion was caught off guard. However, they soon began to meticulously record the process of the rebellion, the scenes of Pan Yang devouring people, and the people\'s resistance.

As scholars, they also captured many Pan Yang during the chaos, dissected them, and tried to explore the reasons why Pan Yang became exceptionally powerful and bloodthirsty.

In addition, they also investigated the insider information of the Pan Yang Rebellion, the cause of the outbreak of the calamity fire at that time, and the connection between the Pan Yang Rebellion and the calamity fire.

The Tongtian Pavilion also suffered heavy casualties during the Pan Yang Rebellion. In the process of investigation, they were attacked by mysterious forces, and many members of the Tongtian Pavilion died under strange attacks.

Therefore, these books also contain the physical examination records of these deceased members by the later members of the Tongtian Pavilion. It can be said that the information in these books is complex and diverse!

The twelve book monsters have recorded the content about the Pan Yang Rebellion, which is vast and extensive. Another book monster records the origin of Pan Yang and the legend of the heavenly god transforming into a ram and giving birth to the ancestor of the colored-eye people with a woman.

To find useful clues from them, as Hakutaku said, it would take several years to read through these books.

What is even more terrifying is that there are many rune drawings made up of the physical examination records of the members of the Tongtian Pavilion. These patterns are drawn with runes and are very obscure.

Runes are a flattened divine ability. The same divine ability, when flattened from different angles, forms different runes, representing different meanings.

Therefore, each rune contains a huge amount of information.

To decipher the meaning of the runes, one needs to have an understanding of the divine abilities corresponding to the runes, and then use a unique perspective to restore the runes to divine abilities. The amount of information contained in divine abilities is even greater.

If it is an equation composed of runes, it is definitely a complex task that would give everyone a headache to solve!

Ying Ying fluttered her wings and flew through the curtain wall of texts and patterns, desperately memorizing these texts and patterns, striving for accuracy. Although Su Yun has a strong memory, he cannot handle such a huge amount of information, so he can only ask Ying Ying for help.

Ying Ying is also a book monster. After reading it once, she can remember the contents of the book.

However, she only remembers the information without understanding the content of the book. Therefore, she can only help Su Yun remember, and they need to search and understand the content of the book together.

Su Yun was reviewing the summaries compiled by the more than ten book monsters, searching for the content he needed the most.

"Elder Hakutaku, do you know anything about this heavenly god who transformed into a ram?" Su Yun suddenly asked.

Hakutaku was taken aback, shook his head, and said, "There is no such content in the collection here. This legend is mostly false. The Tongtian Pavilion has examined the colored-eye people and did not find any Pan Yang bloodline in them."

Zuo Songyan pulled Su Yun aside, glanced at Hakutaku secretly, and whispered, "Young Master Su, Hakutaku is also a ram, and he is an ancient sacred one who has lived overseas for many years. Could it be that he is the heavenly god who transformed into a ram? Did he seduce young girls?"

"Shorty, I heard that!" Hakutaku angrily said.

Su Yun was suspicious, glanced at Hakutaku, and whispered, "There is indeed such a possibility. Most girls probably like this kind of ram. I also find it quite cute..."

Hakutaku was furious and said, "I said I didn\'t! When we came to this continent, there was already a legend of Pan Yang!"

At this moment, Su Yun saw faint words floating in the air behind the fruit tree, forming a light. It seemed that someone was reading something there, so he asked, "Elder, are there other people here?"

"Naturally. The Tongtian Pavilion has a total of 688 members, 256 Yuan Shuo people, 432 people from other races, plus two pseudo pavilion masters, making a total of 690 people."

Hakutaku fluttered his wings and floated up, trying to stabilize his body, and said, "In this spiritual realm, all members can come in and browse the information. As long as they are members of the Tongtian Pavilion, no matter where they are in the world, as long as they are not blocked from the spiritual realm, they can open the portal through Dao techniques and I will personally guide them in."

Su Yun was puzzled, "You can come in like this? Then why don\'t I understand..."

Hakutaku glared at him fiercely, before he could speak, Su Yun continued, "Yes, I didn\'t go to meet Lou Ban Tan You, so Lou Ban Tan You intercepted me on the way. But time was urgent, and he didn\'t have time to explain everything. It was my fault."

Hakutaku saw that he took the initiative to admit his mistake and didn\'t blame him. He thought to himself, "He is a kind-hearted young man, much kinder than the previous pavilion masters, but a bit foolish. Of course, he is much smarter than the shorty beside him!"

He was referring to the rejuvenated Zuo Songyan.

Hakutaku held a grudge and still remembered Zuo Songyan\'s guess that he turned into a ram to seduce young girls.Su Yun took a few steps towards the fruit tree and saw a woman from a different race behind it. It was hard to tell if she was from Yuanshuo or another ethnic group. She was wearing a green dress with phoenix hairpins on her head, two on each side, with silver threads hanging down from her temples.

She was reading attentively, and the ornaments on her temples trembled slightly.

She was immersed in her reading and didn\'t notice Su Yun and the others approaching.

Su Yun walked up to her and saw that the words in the air were also about the Pan Yang rebellion. There was also a little book monster girl next to her, manipulating the contents of her book.

There were also a few little brush monsters on the side, revealing their true forms as brushes.

The girl in the green dress controlled several brush monsters with her vitality, writing and drawing with great concentration.

Su Yun turned around and whispered, "Elder Bai Ze, what you gave me is not all the historical materials about the Pan Yang rebellion. There\'s another copy here!"

Bai Ze flapped his wings and followed him, feeling for the first time that his wings were somewhat unnecessary and couldn\'t fly fast enough. He said angrily, "You\'re just a fake head of the pavilion. I can\'t give you special treatment! I\'m also from the Tongtian Pavilion, and I came first!"

The girl was startled and quickly got up to greet Bai Ze, saying, "Senior, Yufei pays her respects. I apologize for the intrusion."

Bai Ze, who was almost angered to death by Su Yun, lost his anger when he saw her and smiled, "Ming Yufei, no need to be polite. Are you also studying the Pan Yang rebellion?"

The girl confirmed and said, "There are records of the Pan Yang rebellion in both the Sword Pavilion and the Imperial Palace. I\'ve read them and found many incomplete parts. So I came here to look for more information."

Bai Ze sighed, "Actually, the records in my Tongtian Pavilion are also incomplete. The Pan Yang rebellion happened too suddenly, sweeping through all the countries before we could prepare. By the time the rebellion was quelled, thirty years had already passed and it was too late to find the source of the rebellion."

Zuo Songyan whispered, "Su Shao, isn\'t Bai Ze a male? He can\'t even walk when he sees this girl."

Bai Ze was so angry that he almost fell from the sky.

Xing Jiangmu whispered, "Don\'t talk nonsense. This girl is the future empress of Da Qin."

"The future empress of Da Qin?"

Su Yun was puzzled and asked quietly, "Doesn\'t the emperor of Da Qin choose three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines? Why does the emperor of Da Qin have a future empress?"

"It is said that after the emperor of Da Qin was proclaimed the Holy Emperor, he selected beautiful women. Those with exceptional beauty were made concubines. However, the emperor of Da Qin practices a unique cultivation method and cannot consummate the marriage, so he keeps the concubines in the harem."

Xing Jiangmu seemed to know everything about Yun Du and said, "This Ming Yufei is one of them. She was named Yufei and is still underage. However, she doesn\'t like staying in the palace and often runs out, either to the Sword Pavilion or to the Imperial Palace. It is said that someone even saw her venturing to the City of Ashes. She is called the Mad Concubine behind her back. I didn\'t expect her to be from the Tongtian Pavilion. No wonder she likes to wander around..."

Ming Yufei curiously looked at Su Yun, and Su Yun praised, "Miss Ming, your dress is beautiful. My name is Su Yun, and I\'m fourteen years old."

Ming Yufei\'s eyes lit up and she smiled, "I know you. You\'re the new teacher in the Sword Pavilion who beat up Miss Yu! Miss Yu cursed you behind your back!"

The Miss Yu she mentioned was probably Yu Shuangyun.

"Oh, it\'s getting late. The palace must be checking now. I should go back, or I\'ll be caught again!"

Ming Yufei quickly packed up the books she copied, glanced behind Su Yun, and saw Ying Ying recording information about the Pan Yang rebellion. She was surprised and said, "Are you also studying this? So am I! I\'ll come find you tomorrow, and we can study and exchange our findings together!"

She quickly finished packing, took off a phoenix hairpin, activated her divine power in the air, and drew a portal. Then she opened the door and walked out, but she stuck her head back in and smiled, "Where should we meet?"

Xing Jiangmu quickly nudged Su Yun and whispered, "Young Master, she\'s the emperor\'s concubine. Don\'t provoke her!"

Su Yun seemed unaware and smiled, "Let\'s meet at the envoy\'s residence in Yuanshuo."

"Okay!"

Ming Yufei, with her bright eyes and white teeth, said crisply, "I\'ll come find you tomorrow morning!" After speaking, she closed the door, and the door slowly disappeared as her divine power was exhausted.

Zuo Songyan sighed, "Is the emperor\'s harem behind that door? If only we could go in and take a look..."

After about two hours, Ying Ying finally finished scanning all the words and patterns, exhausted and unable to fly.

"She\'s full."

Bai Ze checked and said, "She just needs to rest for a while."

Su Yun felt sorry for her and quickly sent Ying Ying to his own spiritual realm for recuperation. Bai Ze took out a teacup from somewhere and said lightly, "Has Master Su finished reading? If you have, it\'s time to leave."

"Just a moment, I want to look up the history of the previous pavilion masters..."

Just as Su Yun was about to say this, clouds surged, blocking his vision and enveloping him. The next moment, the clouds dissipated and turned into wisps of white smoke.

Su Yun, Zuo Songyan, and Xing Jiangmu woke up and found themselves still sitting in front of the wooden table, each holding a teacup with cold tea inside.

The white sheep across from them put down the teacup and said calmly, "It\'s almost dawn. You should all go back now."Su Yun hurriedly asked, "Elder Hakutaku, could you teach me the divine power to enter the book storage area?"

Hakutaku shook his head and said, "I don\'t know how. I don\'t need to learn that."

Su Yun thought for a moment, "I will meet Ming Yufei tomorrow and ask her for guidance. The woman of the Holy Emperor of Da Qin..."

In the spirit world, Ying Ying leaned on Su Yun\'s shoulder, looking very weak. Hearing his thoughts, she giggled, "Su Scholar, your thoughts are quite dangerous! But I\'m glad to see you\'ve grown up!"

Su Yun\'s face turned slightly red, and he stammered, "Where is it..."
