Chapter 373: Plain Skirt Aunt Is Furious!

Led by Yuejia, the both of them arrived deep underground. It was dark, and they could barely see anything. The air was thin, and an oppressive feeling filled the air, making it hard to breathe.

They walked along a small tunnel, and they soon found themselves standing in front of a stone door.

Yuejia pushed the stone door open, revealing a magnificent underground palace. The palace was extremely big, spanning thousands of meters in length and width. There were also many towers and pavilions around the palace.

The entire palace was pitch-black, and the deathly silence made the eerie atmosphere even more eerie. The surroundings were incredibly gloomy, and the palace resembled a ghost town.

Yuejia's eyes gleamed in an unusual light as she stared at the palace, her eyes. Ye Guan made a sidelong glance at her, but he didn't say a word.

Yuejia opened her hand, and a flame manifested over her palm. It then took to the skies, and the surrounding temperature skyrocketed. At the same time, the light radiating from the flame illuminated the entire palace as if it were daytime.

Ye Guan stared at the palace's main gate and saw two words written on an ancient-looking plaque—Dao Palace!

Yuejia opened her other hand, and the Dao Imprint appeared over her palm before flying to the sky. A Great Dao rune appeared above the palace as if it were responding to the Dao Imprint's presence.

Yuejia looked at the Great Dao symbol and shouted, "Go!"

The Dao Imprint flew and struck the Great Dao rune.

Bam!

The Great Dao rune was shattered, and it transformed into countless energy fragments that scattered in all directions. A tremor ran through the palace as strands of mysterious energy began to radiate in all directions.

The corners of Yuejia’s lips curled up into a smile.

"Young Lord Ye, the seal has been lifted," she said. She then opened her again, and the Dao Imprint returned to her hand. She extended it over to Ye Guan and said, "Here, take it back."

Ye Guan put the Dao Imprint away.

Yuejia blinked and said, "You don’t look surprised at all."

Ye Guan replied, "I knew you’re not that kind of person."

"What makes you think?"

"Intuition." Yuejia was stunned. She then burst into uproarious laughter, and she laughed so hard that her mounds trembled along with her peals of laughter. Ye Guan had to look away, but inside, he was astonished. Yuejia was the biggest woman he had ever seen.

Does she not feel tired carrying such heavy weights all the time?

Yuejia soon stopped laughing, and she examined Ye Guan from top to bottom before saying, "Young Lord Ye, let me give you a piece of advice. You shouldn't haphazardly test the nature of others, especially human nature. This Dao Imprint is more valuable than you think, and even I am tempted by it.

"This Dao Imprint is capable of breaking all seals, which means you'll have a myriad of possibilities for the taking so long as you have this Dao Imprint."

Ye Guan smiled and asked, "Then why did you not take it for yourself?"

Yuejia asked back, "Why did you give that Dao Imprint to me?"

Ye Guan sounded serious as he said, "It's because I never had any doubts about your character. I knew that you wouldn't take it away."

Yuejia giggled. Her laughter sounded like the jingle of bells.

Moments later, she cast an amused gaze at Ye Guan and said, "Let’s go."

Ye Guan nodded, and the two of them started walking toward the palace. There wasn't anyone else here aside from the two of them, and the stillness of the underground made the air feel eerie.

Soon, the two arrived at a great hall. Their expressions changed drastically upon stepping into the great hall—their cultivation bases had been suppressed! Ye Guan was particularly shocked, as he felt like he was back in the Eternal Secret Realm.

The two took a few steps backward, but their backs collided with an invisible wall.

Ye Guan took out the Dao Imprint to no avail.

"The Dao Imprint is useless here because this seal doesn't belong to the Great Daoist Brush Master!" a voice echoed from out of nowhere.

Ye Guan and Yuejia turned and found a woman sitting cross-legged. The woman was wearing a long robe, her face was pale, and her hair was disheveled. She looked pitiful, but the glint in her eyes was as cold as a thousand-year-old icy cavern.

The old woman stared deeply at Ye Guan and asked, "You’re acquainted with the Great Daoist Brush Master?"

Ye Guan nodded. "I’ve had the chance to meet him once."

The old woman's eyes narrowed, and she asked, "You’ve met him once?"

"You’re right, it’s not."

"But why are we being suppressed?"

"Because you guys are too weak."

Ye Guan froze and went silent.

The old woman looked at both of them with bright eyes, but she did not say anything.

Ye Guan was starting to get wary, and his expression changed upon realizing something. The old woman saw that and chuckled. "Have you guessed it?"

Ye Guan's expression turned sour as he pointed out. "This seal was indeed left behind by True God, but this seal does not have the ability to seal cultivation bases. You're the one suppressing our cultivation!"

"Hahaha, spot on!" The old woman laughed heartily, and she revealed a sinister smile. "You're very clever."

Ye Guan glared at her and said, "You asked me so many questions just now just so you could find out if I were working for True God or the Great Daoist Master, right?"

The old woman chuckled and said, "You're not a Cosmic Spirit, despite your overall prowess, so there's no way you're working for the True God[1]. I was worried that you might be the Chosen One.

"The Chosen One has the protection of Divine Dao Destiny Aura. Even if I were somehow successful in taking over your body, the Great Daoist Brush Master would never let me go. Thankfully, you're not the Chosen One!"

Ye Guan nodded slightly and said, "I'm indeed not the Chosen One, but I am the one with Destiny[2]."

"The one with destiny?" the old woman asked, sounding confused.

"Never mind." Ye Guan shook his head. "I've lost. Do whatever you want with me."

Ye Guan had vowed not to rely on his aunt, and a real man would keep his word.

"No hurry—there's no hurry." the old woman chuckled and said, "You're the first living human being that I've encountered in millions of years, so there’s no harm in chatting a bit longer."

Ye Guan replied calmly, "Antagonists often meet their end due to excessive talking. Are you sure you want to keep chatting with me?"

"Haha!" The old woman burst into laughter and said, "Meet their end due to excessive talking? What you just said is true, but do you know who I am?"

Ye Guan shook his head.

"The vast expanse has given birth to a myriad of Cosmic Spirits since time immemorial," the old woman started talking, "There are nine supreme Cosmic Spirits among the countless Cosmic Spirits. Back then, they were known as the Nine Gods, and the True God was one of them. She killed six of the Nine Gods, leaving only two aside for herself. I'm one of the surviving three Gods..."

The old woman got up slowly, and she started emitting an inscrutable, mysterious force. She closed her eyes and continued. "I have devoured the reincarnation cycles of tens of thousands of civilizations and endured thousands of tribulations.

"I was invincible, and I lost only twice in my life. Once to the True God and once to the Great Daoist Brush Master."

"We're in a different era now," Ye Guan said, "I feel that everyone should keep a low profile; it doesn't matter even if you're a god."

"Pfft!" The old woman burst into and exclaimed, "You know nothing about my power!"

Then, she looked at Ye Guan and asked, "You said you're one with destiny?"

Ye Guan nodded.

"Is that so?" The old woman stared deeply at him and said, "What if I want to kill you? What will she do to me?"

Ye Guan's expression changed, and he muttered, "You don't have to kill me..."

The old woman sneered, "Destiny... how interesting. Someone was actually daring enough to claim that they're destiny itself. What an ignoramus! It's so ridiculous I actually feel like laughing."

Rumble!

A low rumble echoed from out of nowhere, and an illusory face suddenly manifested in the air.

The face belonged to none other than the plain-skirt lady!

The plain-skirt lady's eyes were devoid of emotion as she stared at the old woman.

"Who do you think you are?" she asked indifferently.

However, Ye Guan could feel it. He could feel that she was furious!

Ye Guan judiciously decided to remain silent.

1. this reinforces the footnote in chapter 370 ?

2. Referring to Plain Skirt Destiny, but the old woman doesn’t know that ?
