My Master Disconnected Yet Again

Panda Novel

Yi Qing’s heavenly tribulation came out of nowhere this time – he did not even notice it himself. Too many things happened in these few years – he broke the Divine Refining Clock, battled on the Emperor Ascension Stage and even engaged in the great battle between the sects. There were so many battles that even Lonemoon could feel himself getting closer to ascending into an Emperor. It therefore should not have been surprising that Yi Qing, the cheat, was experiencing a breakthrough just then.

For some reason, though, Yi Qing’s heavenly tribulation was taking an exceptionally long time. The lightning bolts struck one after another, each one feeling like it was going to shatter the earth

The heavenly tribulation was not supposed to take more than four or five days, but this one took close to half a month. Lonemoon glanced at the flashes of lightning in the sky and had a bad feeling in his heart. 36 flashes of blinding light followed after the lightning tribulation. They were supposed to be a fiery red, but Lonemoon could not figure out why they were purple deviant fire bolts. They lit up the entire sky so that it became purple. These took a total of six days and six nights.

Lonemoon was shocked. He watched the cheat silently. Given the intensity of this tribulation, it was surprising that Yi Qing was still standing strong, uninjured by whatever was being thrown at him.

One month later.

The sky cleared and the clouds dissipated. Yi Qing was back. There were holes and burns all over his dharmic clothing and his hair was much messier than usual. He looked a mess, but he seemed much happier than usual as well. The immortal Qi surrounding his body also felt several times richer. Lonemoon felt the pressure of a Celestial Emperor pressing down on him.

Wait.

The pressure of a Celestial Emperor?

Lonemoon: “…” Motherf*cker!

“Shen Ying!”

“Huh?”

“I’m going to talk about life with you now, immediately, at this very moment!”

Shen Ying: “…”

Yi Qing: “…”

Yi Qing successfully ascended to become a Celestial Emperor and became the Celestial Emperor of the Bo Sea. As the director of administration and human resources in the Invincible Sect, Lonemoon stopped pushing away all the responsibilities. Immediately, he decided to move the entire sect to the Heavens beyond Heaven and allowed the other Celestial Emperors to think that they heard him wrongly before.

Lonemoon rolled his eyes at their situation and kept working at his abacus. What nonsense – the Invincible Sect’s halls were mostly broken from the battle before. They had no choice but to move to somewhere else to live. The only valuable herbs in the rear garden were also mostly dead thanks to the demonic array that Lan Hua set up.

That was why the disciples immediately got to packing all of their possessions. They were only left with packing the immortal meridian in the rear hall. The Invincible Sect seemed to be very quick in packing up and moving out. It only took them about an hour to pack all that they had and move out of the premises.

For the sake of convenience, Lonemoon allowed Lan Hua to set up a transportation array that led straight to the Bo Sea. He took that as Lan Hua’s accommodation fees.

In the blink of an eye, all the disciples arrived at the doorstep of the heavenly palace of Bo Sea.

The immortal guard who had just received news that he was to welcome a new Celestial Emperor: “…”

“Greetings… Greetings, Celestial Emperor!” The door guard finally reacted after a couple of seconds, cupping his fists and bowing to Yi Qing.

“Mm.” Yi Qing, the so-called Celestial Emperor, nodded. He was only in charge of cooking anyway.

Lonemoon, on the other hand, looked around and frowned. “Where are the other immortal guards? Why are you the only one in this heavenly palace?”

In the month that Yi Qing had spent going through the tribulations, Lonemoon did some research on the guards at the heavenly palace in the Bo Sea. According to his research there should have been at least six Mystic Immortals guarding the gates of the heavenly palace each day.

The various emperors had already announced that Yi Qing was going to take over as Celestial Emperor of the Bo Sea for fear that they would back out. An hour ago, Lonemoon also informed the managing immortal official that they would be coming. Even if they were early, it could not be that only one guard would be guarding the heavenly gate.

“Well…” The door guard became pale. A weird emotion flashed past his eyes. He could not, for the life of him, think of an excuse.

Lonemoon’s expression fell. He increased his Young Emperor’s pressure. “Where are the immortal guards who are supposed to be guarding the heavenly palace?”

The door guard became even more pale. His legs became jelly and he started to speak, but a friendly voice came from behind him. “Pao Hui has failed to welcome the new Celestial Emperor, may the Celestial Emperor please forgive me.”

A figure suddenly flew and landed to the right of the heavenly gate. He was an Exalted Immortal and he was wearing the uniform of an immortal guard, grinning. He was apologising, but he did not sound at all sorry. He bowed slightly to Yi Qing and grinned even wider. “I thought the Celestial Emperor was only going to arrive at least a month later. I did not think that you would be here so soon. Pao Hui was not prepared at all. Apologies, apologies!”

He kept apologising as he stepped forward with a somewhat forced warmth. Acting as the host, he said, “Your servant will now bring the Celestial Emperor around the heavenly palace.”

Now, apart from Lonemoon, even Yi Qing frowned. For some reason, they could not pinpoint what exactly seemed wrong with this situation.

“You’re the managing immortal guard of the heavenly palace?”

“Yes, I am.” The man smiled brightly.

“Where are the others?”

“Well…” Pao Hui gave a pained expression, as if not knowing where to begin. A moment later, he sighed. “Hai, you have no idea. Now that the demonic realm has appeared and come so close… We have just lost our Celestial Emperor Zi Chen. All the immortal guards panicked. They do not dare to stay in the heavenly palace on ordinary days. The new Celestial Emperor also came rather early. I had no time to… gather the rest of them.”

“Is that so?” Lonemoon scanned him from head to toe. Then, his expression became cold. This reason sounded very… proper!

Pao Hui’s smile faltered, but he avoided making eye contact with Lonemoon. He continued to walk ahead of them and said, “New Celestial Emperor, this way, please!”

Lonemoon did not push any further. He nodded at Yi Qing and led the rest of the group into the heavenly palace.

They flew for less than a minute before Pao Hui suddenly stopped and pointed to an impressive palace hall sitting in the clouds in front of them. “New Celestial Emperor, this is the main hall of the palace. Celestial Emperor Zi Chen always held his meetings there.”

Once he finished speaking, he turned and flew toward another hall behind him without waiting for any of them to respond.. It seemed that he had no intention of bringing them into the palace hall. This carried on as he showed them the other halls.

“New Celestial Emperor, this is the Zi Guang Hall. The various emperors of the Bo Sea would come and gather here. It’s a pity that the various emperors could not make it down today. Please do not blame them, Celestial Emperor.”

“New Celestial Emperor, this is the Yuxian Court. This is where we plant immortal herbs,. The immortal guards taking care of this court are not here today, so we cannot go in at the moment. When the Celestial Emperor is free in the future, you can come here again.”

“New Celestial Emperor, this is…”

Pao Hui led the group a full circle around the premises and introduced them briefly to each room, but he had a reason not to allow them to enter every single place. Even the dumb would be able to tell that the immortal guard was unsatisfied with having Yi Qing as his new Celestial Emperor. Yet, he had a fake smile plastered on his face the entire time, as if he was being considerate toward them. This annoyed Lonemoon and the others extremely.

Yu Hong and the other disciples almost argued with the immortal guard a couple of times, but Lonemoon stopped them. That was until they came to the last, innermost hall.

“This is the Treasure Seeking Tower. This is the treasury of the Bo Sea – the most important place in the Bo Sea Heavenly Palace. All the immortal meridians are stored in this place. Celestial Emperor Zi Chen personally set up an array outside the tower. For the new Celestial Emperor’s safety, we had better not enter the treasury for now.”

He was just about to lead the group away when Lonemoon, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly stuck his hand out and stopped him.

“Fellow Immortal, you’re wrong there.” Lonemoon smiled. “This is such an important place – the Celestial Emperor cannot simply sit back and not enter, right?” Lonemoon turned and called, “Yi Qing!”

The next moment, a white ball of light appeared in Yi Qing’s palm. He had been waiting for a long time to do this. An immortal sword appeared in his hands.

“Wait!” Pao Hui’s expression changed. He tried to stop them but he was too late.

Yi Qing raised his hand and a strong gust of sword Qi burst forth, attacking the array that was surrounding the hall. There was a huge crash and the array fell into pieces. The gates to the immortal pavilion opened.

“You… You…” Pao Hui could not believe his eyes. He never thought that they would break the array without hesitation since they had been so cooperative the entire time.

“Immortal guard!” Lonemoon gave an even brighter smile than the immortal guard had on his face earlier. Emphasising each word carefully, he said, “This entire time, you have been telling us that the immortal guards are either busy or fired. As the managing immortal guard, you have failed to control the rest of the immortal guards. I think we should put someone else in charge.”

“…”

“Yu Hong! Send this immortal guard out of the Heavens beyond Heaven!”

“Yes!”

Hmph! He had lived for two lifetimes and it had been long since Lonemoon met a person who made him feel like he had to assert his authority. Very well! This immortal guard of the Bo Sea successfully brought out the CEO in him!
