Chapter 246 The Theft of Floating Cloud Tower
【Floating Clouds Pavilion】
“Sister, if you’re going to be so disrespectful to the key to Floating Cloud Tower, why don’t you just give it to me for safekeeping?” Mandora couldn’t help but complain. “How could a few fairies and humans possibly protect Floating Cloud Tower? Even if you trust them a lot, you can’t just ignore the Fairy Bank like this.”
Mandora had not forgotten that when Xinling's primordial spirit dissipated, she had set the six little fairies as the gatekeepers of the Floating Cloud Tower, and she had always held a grudge about it.
"..." Xin Ling didn't know how to refute it, after all, in her mind, humans could be trusted, and this was the point where she and Mandora disagreed the most.
"Let's not talk about that for now. It's more important to determine Princess Le's stance first." Mandora shook her head helplessly.
“Princess Yue left a secret in the Floating Cloud Tower. Although it’s very impolite, we still have to find out.” Having been the gatekeeper for so many years, Xin Ling still knows the books in the Floating Cloud Tower like the back of her hand.
"Of course, it's a matter of great importance." Compared to Xinling, who is two-faced, Mandora's moral standards are much lower. At least when it comes to dealing with a tenth-tier opponent, she will definitely stop at nothing.
"Princess Le has been gone for so long, we can't completely trust her."
“Alright, let’s go in then.” Xin Ling opened the door of Floating Cloud Tower and entered with Mandora.
"How long has it been since I last came here? Can I still enter the Floating Cloud Tower?" Mandora looked at this familiar place and was filled with emotion. After all, she was neither the gatekeeper of the Floating Cloud Tower nor did she possess the Mirror Image Spell, which was hated by the entire Immortal Realm. Therefore, she rarely set foot in the Floating Cloud Tower.
"Welcome back, gatekeeper." The giant book in the center of the hall mechanically uttered the welcoming words.
"Some secrets should be buried forever, some secrets should be made public, and some secrets should be returned to their masters." Xin Ling gathered her immortal power and began to cast a spell: "Ye Luoli magic, emotions are limited, space is unlimited, extract from Floating Cloud Tower!"
"Authorize! Open the Book of Destiny! I want to extract the secrets Princess Yue has hidden!"
The giant book in front of her gradually opened under the effect of magic, but instead of finding Princess Yue's secret as Xinling had expected, it stopped on a certain page.
"I'm sorry, we couldn't find the secret Princess Le kept."
"How could this be?" Xin Ling said in surprise. She clearly remembered that Princess Le had stored a secret here. How could she not find it?
"Sister, could it be that you've misremembered?" Mandora stepped forward and asked with some doubt.
“Impossible, I remember it clearly!” Xin Ling retorted, but the fact was right in front of her, and Fuyun Tower had no record of storing or retrieving the books, so she was at a loss.
Surely Fuyun Tower couldn't have been robbed?
This time, not only Mandora, but even Xinling felt that handing the key to someone else was a risky move. If it were used by someone with ulterior motives, it could cause big trouble.
At that moment, Mandora noticed the open pages of the book and saw the golden mark on them: "Sister, look, this mark..."
"It's the Mark of the Sky!" Xin Ling was extremely shocked. She had been so focused on not finding the secret that Princess Yue had kept that she hadn't even noticed the pages of the book.
But what does this mark signify?
Xinling and Mandora looked at each other and pondered for a moment. Mandora asserted, "I still don't think Princess Le is trustworthy. Her collection of books must contain some secrets about the forbidden land, but she may have taken them away beforehand."
"When did she take it?" Xin Ling was completely baffled.
“Since you don’t remember, sister, it must have been when you gave the key to those little fairies.” Mandora calmly analyzed, “Unfortunately, those little fairies are all busy now, and one of them has been transformed by Lady Wei, so we can’t know anything about it now.”
“However, one thing is certain: Princess Le is not someone we can trust,” Mandora said decisively.
……
【Fairyland, Rose Flower Mansion】
"Wildflowers fill the sky!" Wei Churuo unfurled her magical artifact, the Spider Lily Umbrella, and an invisible floral aura condensed, enveloping Pang Zun within it.
"What kind of bizarre magic is this?" Pang Zun felt a little dizzy: "Ye Luoli Magic, Lightning and Thunder!"
Pang Zun forcibly used his lightning power to keep himself conscious, thus preventing Wei Chu Ruo from easily outmaneuvering him.
"I can't transform into a man, but my other spells won't be affected~" Wei Churuo said, controlling Luo Li, Liang Cai, and Wang Mo to attack Pang Zun.
