Chapter 229: Blue Luan Omen
“Look up at the sky!”
A maid cried out in surprise, pointing a trembling finger towards the sky above the palace. She saw a divine azure bird circling above the palace, emitting a dazzling light.
"It's the Qingluan!" The Kunlun Taoist said in surprise, "The legendary divine bird has appeared!"
The Third Miss was strolling in the Imperial Garden holding Mo Tianyou. When she heard the sound, she looked up and saw the Blue Luan suddenly swooping down and flying straight towards Mo Tianyou!
"Be careful!" everyone was shocked.
But surprisingly, Mo Tianyou was not afraid at all. Instead, he happily stretched out his hand. The blue phoenix circled above his head three times before suddenly transforming into a beam of blue light and merging into his body!
"This..." Everyone was stunned.
"Haha!" The old Taoist priest from Kunlun suddenly laughed. "It's God's will! This is God's will!"
It turns out that the Qingluan is an ancient mythical bird, and legend has it that it only appears when the true emperor appears. Its appearance not only confirms Mo Tianyou's identity, but also foreshadows that some changes are about to take place.
But at this moment, something unexpected happened! The distant sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, and a piercing scream echoed through the clouds.
"Oh no!" The old Taoist's face changed drastically. "It's a demon bird!"
I saw a giant black bird swooping down from the clouds, emitting an evil aura, obviously coming for Qingluan's power.
"Protect the little prince!" Mo Yunchen immediately ordered.
But Mo Tianyou suddenly broke free from the Third Miss's embrace, and with a wave of his hand, the power of destiny in his body merged perfectly with the power of Qingluan! A brilliant blue-gold light shot up into the sky, and a shocking battle began with the demon bird.
"This kid..." the old Taoist sighed, "is becoming more and more surprising."
The battle was extremely fierce. Although the demon bird was fierce, it was defeated by the dual power of Tianming and Qingluan. Just when victory was in sight, an accident suddenly happened!
"Oh no!" The niece suddenly rushed over, "We've spotted a large number of 'Messengers of Destiny' outside the city! They seem to be holding some kind of ritual!"
Sure enough, a strange force suddenly surged from all directions and merged into the body of the magic bird. The magic bird's aura suddenly surged, and it even faintly overwhelmed Mo Tianyou's power!
"So that's how it is," the old Taoist sneered, "These people want to take advantage of this opportunity to seize the power of Heaven's Fate and the Azure Luan."
But they clearly underestimated Mo Tianyou. The one-year-old child suddenly opened his eyes, and a majestic childish voice rang out, "Bad guys...don't...come!"
As the voice fell, the sky and the earth suddenly changed color! Several colorful lights fell from the sky, and even the other divine birds were startled!
"This..." Even the old Taoist was shocked, "Other divine birds have appeared in the world?"
It turns out that Qingluan is not alone, there are also mythical beasts such as Suzaku and White Tiger. At this moment, they are startled by Mo Tianyou's call and appear to help!
"It's over!" The exclamation of the messenger of destiny came from outside the city.
Several rays of divine light surrounded the demon bird, and no matter how it struggled, it could not escape. Finally, with a mournful cry, the demon bird was completely purified, turning into tiny points of light and dissipating into the sky.
"Won?" The third young lady was a little bit unbelieving.
"It's more than just winning," the old Taoist said with relief, "this is a sign of the true awakening of destiny."
Indeed, after this battle, Mo Tianyou not only gained the power of the Blue Luan, but also gained the recognition of the other divine beasts. This power far exceeded everyone's imagination.
But the trouble wasn't over yet. When the messengers of destiny were captured, their behavior was found to be extremely strange. They either committed suicide or went mad, as if they were controlled by something.
"Interesting," the old Taoist said after observing, "These people have a very strange power, as if they have been corrupted by some evil."
"Could it be related to the demon from last time?" asked the third lady.
"It's very likely. Although the demon was defeated, its remaining power may have taken advantage of the opportunity to attach itself to certain individuals."
This discovery made everyone alert. If this was true, then the threat came not only from the enemies on the surface, but also from the evil forces hidden in the dark.
At this moment, Mo Tianyou suddenly spoke: "Mother... there is... something bigger... coming..."
"What's coming?" the third young lady asked nervously.
But Mo Tianyou shook his head and said nothing more. However, the power of destiny and the power of Qingluan in his body were fluctuating uneasily, and he obviously had a premonition of something.
"We need to be vigilant," Mo Yunchen said solemnly, "Since Tianyou said so, something big is bound to happen."
The old Taoist nodded. "And we must hurry. Although the power of destiny and the divine beast is strong, it takes time to merge. During this process, we must protect the young prince."
The Third Miss hugged Mo Tianyou tightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone hurt him."
But no one expected the real crisis to come so suddenly. That very night, an even more shocking news arrived: someone had discovered something unusual in the imperial mausoleum!
“What’s unusual?”
"Yes..." the guard who came to report trembled in his voice, "Someone saw the late emperor appear!"
This news shocked everyone. The late emperor's appearance? This couldn't be a coincidence!
"Let's go!" Mo Yunchen immediately stood up, "I want to go and see it myself."
But the old Taoist stopped him: "Your Highness, wait a minute. This is strange. If the late emperor really wanted to show his spirit, he wouldn't choose this time."
Indeed, it was too much of a coincidence that a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the imperial mausoleum when Mo Tianyou had just obtained the power of the divine beast.
"Could it be that someone did this on purpose?" the Third Miss analyzed. "They want to lead His Highness to the Imperial Mausoleum..."
"More than that," the old Taoist said solemnly, "If I'm not mistaken, they want to use the spirit of the late emperor!"
This speculation made everyone gasp. Exploiting the late emperor's spirit—what a heinous act!
But what was even more surprising was that Mo Tianyou suddenly spoke: "Grandpa Emperor... is calling me..."
"What?" The third young lady looked at her son in surprise.
Mo Tianyou's eyes suddenly became deep, as if he could see through time and space: "Grandpa Emperor said... there are bad guys... who want to harm him..."
Now everyone understood: those people not only wanted to seize the destiny and the power of the divine beast, but also wanted to use the heroic spirit of the late emperor to deal with Mo Tianyou!
"How dare you!" Mo Yunchen said angrily, "How dare you set your sights on the late emperor!"
"But they miscalculated a little," the old Taoist sneered. "With the protection of the Blue Luan and other divine beasts, the young prince can now sense the changes in the spiritual world. Far from being exploited by them, the late emperor's heroic spirit will actually lend a helping hand to the young prince!"
Sure enough, that night, a bright light suddenly appeared from the direction of the imperial mausoleum! Everyone saw a majestic figure rising up. It was none other than the heroic spirit of the late emperor!
Those who sought to exploit the late emperor never imagined that their actions would not only fail, but would instead alarm the true heroic spirit. Under the triple power of destiny, divine beasts, and the late emperor, these people were instantly annihilated!
"It's finally resolved," the Third Miss breathed a sigh of relief, "thanks to the late Emperor's blessing."
Mo Yunchen knelt down and kowtowed: "Father, may your spirit in heaven bless you. I am deeply grateful!"
Looking at everything before him, the old Taoist sighed, "This is God's will. As the saying goes, 'Heaven blesses wise rulers.' Your Highness not only has the mandate of Heaven upon him, but he also has the protection of his ancestors. The future of this country is bound to be prosperous!"
