Chapter 1284: Chapter 1288: Southern Heavenly Palace
…
After moving the stones into place, he slowly piled them up to a height within his reach.
A young man wearing a felt hat took off his long waist belt and then threw it heavily over a tree branch.
“I, Huangyu, hereby bid farewell to the elders of Li Prefecture. In the next life…”
The young man stood atop the pile of stones, his legs slightly shaky, but he still firmly pulled down the long waist belt and tied a tight knot at both ends.
“Young man, are you seeking death?” Suddenly, a voice reached the ears of the young Huangyu.
Huangyu was startled and almost fell.
“Friend, do not try to persuade me. Today I must use my life to protest the injustice of the heavens!” Huangyu continued.
“No, no, no, you misunderstand. I just want to discuss something with you. Since you’re intending to die anyway, right? I have a Little Gluttonous Dragon here, fond of eating humans, especially alive ones. It’s not interested in the flesh of the dead, mainly because it can’t feel the elasticity and toughness when chewing live prey. Sadly, I myself am somewhat of a benevolent cultivator, and I never allow myself to do anything utterly ruthless. Since you want to die, why not consider it an act of kindness and feed yourself to my Little Gluttonous Dragon? Wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?” Zhu Minglang said to the young man seeking death.
Upon hearing this, Huangyu’s complexion changed.
He glanced at Zhu Minglang’s Little Gluttonous Dragon.
“Are you sick in the head?” Finally, the young Huangyu couldn’t help but curse.
“Alright, alright, then I’ll wait for you to hang yourself, and then come over. Little Glutton, it doesn’t matter if the meat quality is a bit worse.” Zhu Minglang said, not upset, and gently patted the Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon, then squatted to the side and waited.
The expression of the young man preparing to hang himself turned even uglier. In the end, he could not help but burst out cursing: “My death is to accuse the heavens, to leave behind an unyielding spirit who defies the injustice of fate under this bright and clear heaven and earth. What do you mean by coming here and saying these things to me? Do you even understand my resolve and realm!”
“I don’t need to understand. After all, even if you hang yourself, it’s inevitable that the wild beasts in the woods will gnaw you beyond recognition. That would only bring surprise to the accidental passersby and leave the heavens utterly puzzled, and you will gain nothing from it. It would be better to become food to satisfy the hunger of my Gluttonous Lunar Eclipse Dragon.” Zhu Minglang said.
“You scoundrel, do not covet my noble remains!” the young man shouted angrily.
“Both I and the Gluttonous Dragon would be grateful.”
“What do I need your gratitude for!! Humph, I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you. Today, no matter what, this young master will not let you, a thieving scoundrel, have your way!!” The young man, enraged by the conversation, immediately untied his waist belt.
Young Huangyu, cursing and swearing, packed up his belongings and headed down toward the Human City below the mountain.
Watching the young man’s retreating figure, the Little Gluttonous Dragon let out tears of emotion… such good years, yet bent on seeking death.
Zhu Minglang shook his head, about to leave, when he noticed something left behind by the young Huangyu.
This item was not so much left behind as it seemed to have been deliberately discarded by the young man, suggesting that his suicidal urges were largely connected to this object.
An apprenticeship invitation?
Zhu Minglang opened it to have a look and discovered that it was actually from a Great Immortal Sect of the Jun Tian Sky Capital!
Southern Heavenly Palace!
Claiming to be an Immortal Sect of the Heavenly Palace, it must genuinely possess the authority to govern the sun and the moon.
If he could enter such a powerful Immortal Sect, why would this young man seek death?
Zhu Minglang couldn’t quite understand.
However, he didn’t have the inclination to figure it out so clearly. Old Heavenly Father can only save a person once, and cannot always be lurking by his side. If after descending the mountain he still seeks death or risk his life needlessly, Zhu Minglang would not bother with him anymore.
…
The matter concerning the Sword Spirit Dragon still needs to be clarified, that is, which power is currently serving the Sword Spirit Dragon.
Of course, the most crucial thing is the removal of that Flare Print, and how to do it.
If not for that Flare Print, Zhu Minglang wouldn’t have to be so cautious, and could just take the Sword Spirit Dragon away if he wished.
The Flare Print has a strong remnant of Divine Sense, meaning that as long as the Sword Spirit Dragon exerts its powerful strength, it will be detected by the person who left the Flare Print.
The other party can always know where one is, and will eventually appear in front of one someday.
He must not let those people know that the master of the Sword Spirit Dragon is still at this stage, otherwise it would be extremely passive and would lead to great disaster.
Therefore, the best approach is to go to the Jun Tian Sky Capital, secretly observe for a while, and if a way to remove that Flare Print can be found, he could take the Sword Spirit Dragon away in advance. If there is no way to remove it, then he should slowly increase his strength…
The invitation in his hand happens to be from a notable immortal clan of the Jun Tian Sky Capital, the Southern Heavenly Palace!
Zhu Minglang, who has yet to find a removal method, can actually visit this Southern Heavenly Palace, after all, only by entering into the strongest Immortal Gates can one learn about the affairs of the rotating suns!

The Southern Heavenly Palace should be a suitable destination.
Changing a name and blending in, he could rely on the prestige of the Great Immortal Sect and enjoy top-tier resources!
…
The journey from the Fang Clan to the Jun Tian Sky Capital is indeed incredibly distant.
Fortunately, the location of the Fang Clan in Li Prefecture is barely central to the whole Horizon of Juntian. If he were to cross it, Zhu Minglang would have to traverse paths equivalent to nine Divine Lands of the North Dipper God State.
With his current Cultivation Base, it would take a year or two per section!
In the past, Zhu Minglang obtained the Xuanlong, and only then did traveling across the various God Territories become convenient.
The Nine-tailed Dragon, the Chongwang Dragon, and the Little Gluttonous Dragon are incomparable to the Xuanlong in this regard. Even though the Nine-tailed Dragon now possesses the strength of a Divine Dragon Lord, there is still a huge difference from the Xuanlong’s ability to soar a thousand miles with a flap of its wings.
Winter passed and spring entered; the rotating sun changed once again.
This sun is called – Bi Huang.
It is said to be an exceedingly strong sun, yet what it represents is the gentlest and most vibrant spring radiance.
The alterations of spring, summer, autumn, and winter are due to different suns rotating.
Of course, it’s not strictly one distinct sun for each of the four seasons, as after the Divine Land has been illuminated by different rotating suns and then scorched by another, it produces different reactions in the revival of Spiritual Energy.
Generally speaking, Bi Huang rotates for the majority of spring, and then the Golden Crow will take over.
After the succession of the Golden Crow, the onset of sweltering summer gradually approaches, and when summer nears autumn, Red Sun will continue to shine and provide heat.
It can be said that the Golden Crow and Red Sun, two great suns, represent the hottest stage of rotation, sometimes lasting six months, sometimes four, and adjustment is also needed according to the year and the rotation of other celestial bodies in the Sky Field.
As for the Green Kirin, it will rotate for four to five months during autumn, winter, and spring; as a result, Jun Tian experiences nearly half a year of snowfall and icy cold seasons.
