Joseph’s expression made it all too clear—he seemed to think that people who play with models aren’t serious.
If both master and disciple could read faces like this, how could he, Tyrannical Song, keep any secrets in the future?
Maybe he should make wearing a mask part of the sect’s tradition. Anyone who joins Song’s sect would wear a half-mask as a sign of identity.
However, after imagining the scene, Song Shuhang shook his head. An entire sect wearing masks would look way too outlandish.
With a sigh, he explained to Joseph, “This isn’t just a small model. It’s actually a real miniature palace, shrunk down by Senior White using the ‘Palm-Sized Buddha Kingdom’ technique.”
Joseph asked, “Can you use this technique, Master?”
“Nope,” Song Shuhang replied without hesitation.
Joseph immediately praised, “A technique even my Master can’t use—it’s incredible!”
Song Shuhang was confused.
Just because I can’t use a technique doesn’t mean it’s automatically amazing.
“Master, could you enlarge this model so we can see it better?” Joseph asked—truthfully, he couldn’t make out the details of the door after it was shrunk by the Palm-Sized Buddha Kingdom technique, let alone the holes on it.
After all, he was just a beginner who had barely gathered a wisp of ‘Holy Light’ and hadn’t even opened his Eye Acupuncture Point.
“Let’s move to the Core World,” Song Shuhang suggested.
The fragments of the Heavenly Court and the Jade Pool would have to be sent to the Core World sooner or later, so they might as well be sent now, where they could be restored.
Core World.
Song Shuhang, Senior White, Feather Soft, and Joseph entered the Core World.
“Senior White, please release the Palm-Sized Buddha Kingdom technique,” Song Shuhang requested.
Senior White gestured, and the two ‘ancient Heavenly Court fragments’ floated into the air.
The ‘Core Little Assistant’ appeared, catching the two fragments and placing them in the peripheral area of the Core World. The ancient Heavenly Court fragments could forcibly expand the Core World’s territory, so the thoughtful Little Assistant wasn’t going to miss this opportunity.
Once the fragments were placed at the perimeter, Senior White reversed the effects of the Palm-Sized Buddha Kingdom technique.
The enormous Jade Pool expanded back to its original size, stretching the Core World’s boundaries.
The smaller ‘palace fragment’ also slightly increased the Core World’s territory.
Song Shuhang and Joseph landed in front of the ‘palace fragment’s’ door.
“This is spectacular,” Joseph remarked, looking up at the nearly twenty-meter-high door.
That tiny model could transform into such a gigantic palace—could it be that this Senior White was an even more powerful immortal than his Master?
“Look at that round hole in the disk, and try to remember it well,” Song Shuhang instructed.
“Yes, Master,” Joseph responded.
He stood before the enormous palace door, deep in thought.
A few moments later…
Pavilion Master Chu’s hair strand asked, “Have you remembered anything?”
“Master, I was thinking… If we learned this Palm-Sized Buddha Kingdom technique, couldn’t we just make model houses and then enlarge them? We’d be rich!” Joseph said excitedly.
Song Shuhang was startled.
You stared at it all this time, and that’s all you came up with?
Do you want me to smack you right now?
“Master, I’ve never handled a stone disk key this large before! And look at this disk; it’s at least a meter deep, with a diameter of two meters. Even if it was placed next to me, there’s no way I could move such a huge stone,” Joseph explained.
“That’s true,” the Stone Tablet agreed.
Joseph was just a regular guy who had gathered a wisp of ‘Holy Light.’ He wasn’t gifted with superhuman strength.
“But he was captured by that puppet, and it’s still interrogating him,” the handsome windbreaker-clad version of Fat Ball commented. “That puppet wouldn’t just grab someone at random, so there must be some clue.”
Senior Akasaguru added, “Could someone have disguised themselves as Joseph and then taken the stone disk key?”
“Senior Copper Trigram?” Feather Soft blurted out.
After all, Senior Copper Trigram had a shady past—he’d once disguised himself as a member of the ‘Nine Provinces Number One Group’ and spread misfortune, blaming it on the group members.
Even though Joseph wasn’t a member of the ‘Nine Provinces Number One Group,’ he was Song Shuhang’s disciple, so he might have made it onto Senior Copper Trigram’s ‘black disguise list.’
“Let’s not jump to conclusions. If it comes to that, I’ll just spill some blood,” Song Shuhang said, rolling up his sleeves.
They say that shedding a little blood every month is good for your health.
“Wait, Master!” Suddenly, Joseph’s eyes lit up. He pointed at the disk and said, “I’ve never seen such a large stone disk before, but I have seen that strange crown symbol in the middle!”
It was a symbol of a flat crown and a throne, similar to the Merit Flat Crown that Song Shuhang had given to the Merit Snake Beauty.
“Where did you see it?” Song Shuhang asked.
“When I was heading to the New Year’s Eve feast you hosted, I stopped at a highway rest area and found a car key with that crown and scepter symbol. I was curious about what kind of car it belonged to, so I remember it clearly,” Joseph replied.
“A car key? And then?” Song Shuhang prompted.
“Since I found it at a highway rest area, I was worried the owner might have trouble finding it, so I handed it over to the staff on duty,” Joseph explained. “If that key is the one we’re talking about, then I’ve been wronged. I got beaten up for nothing! If they’d just mentioned a car key, I would’ve remembered right away. How was I supposed to know they meant a stone disk key?”
Song Shuhang:
“Which rest area was it?” Senior White asked.
“Zhujie,” Joseph answered.
“I’ll go take a look. Be right back,” Senior White said.
With that, Senior White’s figure vanished into thin air.
“Master, that Senior was really good-looking—way more handsome than you,” Joseph whispered, sidling up to Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang was speechless.
Are you begging for a beating?
When I officially take you on as a disciple, I’ll make sure your training is full of… ‘challenges.’
“No, no, wait—I mean, you aren’t as good-looking as that Senior. No, that’s not right—I mean that Senior is more good-looking than you. No, I mean…” Joseph stammered, getting more flustered with each word.
Song Shuhang gently patted Joseph on the shoulder. “Your body tempering liquid for next month is canceled.”
“Senior Song, what do you think might be inside this palace?” Feather Soft asked from the side.
“Probably… a celestial boat? The Heavenly Emperor’s celestial boat?” Song Shuhang guessed.
After all, it was a car key.
As they were speaking, Senior White returned, emerging from thin air.
He held the key with the ‘crown and scepter’ emblem.
And, no kidding, it really did look just like a car key.
And to open the door, you didn’t even have to insert this car key into the stone disk.
Senior White pressed a button on the key.
Rumble
The palace door slowly opened.
Song Shuhang was speechless.
Are you kidding me?
If it was a remote-controlled door, why did you bother carving a hole in the stone disk? Were you just trying to stir things up?
As the door creaked open, a golden throne was revealed to everyone inside.
The Heavenly Emperor’s Throne!
