Chapter 523 Mysterious Expert

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Rumble!!!

Another wave of thunder rolled across the heavens.

The pressure surged once more.

Stronger than before.

And this time, even the air seemed to crack.

Sun Yaoqing stared into the distance.

Her expression was completely serious now.

"No matter who it is..."

She muttered softly.

"I must quickly appease the expert and do my best to keep them in my Empire."

Whether it was truly a Golden Immortal tribulation-or something even more unfathomable-One thing was certain.

The one undergoing it was no ordinary expert.

Sun Yaoqing's gaze remained fixed on the distant storm, her expression completely serious now.

Even if that person only stepped into the Earth Immortal Realm-

To able to call such a terrifying Heavenly Tribulation-

They would still be an existence far beyond anyone she knew.

An unparalleled expert.

"No matter the cultivation realm..."

She muttered softly.

"Someone who can call this level of tribulation cannot be judged by common standards."

Her eyes sharpened.

That kind of person was someone the empire must win over.

She turned slightly.

"Mingzhu!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Mingzhu stepped forward without hesitation.

"Prepare gifts."

Sun Yaoqing's tone was decisive.

"The highest-grade resources we can offer."

A brief pause.

"High-grade pills, rare herbs, artifacts-everything."

Mingzhu's expression tightened.

She understood instantly.

This was not a simple matter of courtesy.

This was a matter of national interest.

To win favor from such an expert-

Even a small connection-

Would be worth more than entire territories.

"I understand!"

She responded firmly before immediately leaving to make arrangements.

Meanwhile, Sun Yaoqing continued watching the sky.

Rumble-!!!

The fifth bolt of lightning descended.

Even more terrifying than before.

The clouds churned violently, as if enraged.

Then-

Crack-!!!

The sixth strike fell.

The heavens themselves seemed to split apart.

The pressure surged to an unimaginable level.

Even the guards below felt their legs tremble slightly.

"...Six..."

One of them whispered.

His voice filled with disbelief.

But before anyone could process it-

The clouds gathered once more.

Even denser.

Even heavier.

As if preparing for something final.

Sun Yaoqing's eyes narrowed.

(The seventh...)

But just as the power reached its peak, it stopped abruptly.

The thunder faded.

The lightning vanished.

The oppressive pressure that had blanketed the heavens-

Disappeared as if it had never existed.

Silence!

Everyone stared upward in shock.

"...It stopped?"

"Why didn't the seventh strike fall?"

"Did the expert succeed?"

No one had an answer. But Sun Yaoqing didn't hesitate.

Her gaze turned sharp instantly.

"Search!"

Her voice rang out decisively.

"Spread out and locate the expert immediately."

The guards straightened.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

But she raised her hand slightly.

"And remember-"

Her tone turned serious.

"Be respectful. No matter who you encounter-do not offend them."

She paused for a brief moment.

Then added-

"Send a message immediately and I will go personally."

That single sentence made the guards' expressions tighten.

To have the princess go in person-that was the highest level of sincerity.

Sun Yaoqing understood clearly.

Someone of that level could not be summoned.

It would be disrespectful.

If anything, she should be the one to seek them out.

Only then would it show proper intent.

Her gaze shifted once more toward the distance.

Toward where the tribulation had descended.

Sun Yaoqing stayed behind.

She remained where she was, her gaze fixed toward the horizon where the

tribulation had descended.

She was waiting.

For when her guards would locate that mysterious expert-or Bai Zihan would

return.

No matter which came first, both were matters she could not afford to neglect. The unknown expert was a potential pillar that could elevate the entire empire. But Bai Zihan was also someone she could not afford to treat lightly either. Even if they could get the support of that mysterious expert, it was not a wise idea to offend or neglect Young Master Bai.

Time passed.

One minute.

Two minutes.

Five minutes.

But there was still no news about the mysterious expert, nor did Bai Zihan

appear.

Then-

A ripple appeared in the air behind her.

Sun Yaoqing's eyes sharpened instantly.

She turned.

The guards reacted a step slower.

And in the next moment-

A figure stepped out.

Bai Zihan!

For a brief instant, Sun Yaoqing was genuinely startled.

But that surprise lasted only a fraction of a second.

Her expression returned to calm almost immediately. She stepped forward slightly and cupped her hands. "Young Master Bai."

Her tone was respectful. "Welcome back!"

Her gaze shifted subtly.

Behind him, there was no one. Her eyes flickered slightly.

No Chong Sheng?

Her first instinct-

Chong Sheng had managed to escape.

After all, someone like Chong Sheng escaping under such circumstances was

not impossible.

But before she could ask, Bai Zihan spoke.

"Chong Sheng is dead."

His tone was calm.

As if stating something insignificant.

Sun Yaoqing froze for a brief moment.

"Dead?"

A hint of disbelief flashed across her eyes.

Bai Zihan nodded slightly.

"There is no need to search for him anymore."

Bai Zihan thought that the guards were searching for Chong Sheng, as he had

spotted a few of them on his way back.

Of course, he didn't know that he was mistaken-they were actually searching for the mysterious expert who might be in the Golden Immortal Realm.

Sun Yaoqing knew Bai Zihan was misunderstanding, but she didn't say anything.

There was no need to explain her intentions to him.

Though she was surprised that Bai Zihan didn't seem to be interested in the

expet who had faced the Heavenly Tribulation six times.

Bai Zihan's eyes remained calm.

"You did a good job. I will have someone send a reward for your work."

Bai Zihan said.

It wasn't just because she informed him about Chong Sheng in time, allowing

him to remove a potential threat-

But also because he still needed her in the future, especially if she could help locate the mysterious organization that had previously tried to assassinate him. By rewarding her, he was giving her an incentive to work harder. "Young Master Bai, there is no need. I only did what I was supposed to do.

Rather, I am thankful that you took care of that demonic cultivator."

Sun Yaoqing replied honestly.

Bai Zihan didn't say much and simply nodded.

"I shall take my leave now."

Sun Yaoqing paused slightly.

The words reached her lips-

She almost asked him to stay for a few days.

But the thought only lasted for a moment.

Her gaze flickered toward the distant horizon, where the Heavenly Tribulation

had descended.

That mysterious expert...

She had to focus on finding them rather than attending to Bai Zihan.

She suppressed her thoughts and gave a slight nod.

"Understood, Young Master Bai."

Her tone remained respectful.

"I will not delay you." Bai Zihan gave a faint nod. The next moment- He raised his hand.

He tore open space, and his figure disappeared instantly into the spatial rift.

The void closed behind him.

The moment Bai Zihan left-

Sun Yaoqing's expression changed.

The calmness faded.

Replaced by sharp decisiveness.

She turned immediately toward the guards. "Listen carefully!"

Her voice rang out clearly.

All the guards straightened instantly.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Sun Yaoqing's eyes were cold and focused.

"Increase the number of search parties. Expand the search range to a hundred

miles around the tribulation site."

Her tone grew even more serious. "Search every mountain. Every valley. Every hidden cave. Leave no place

unchecked."

She added one more sentence.

"Whoever finds that expert-"

Her eyes gleamed.

"Will be rewarded heavily!"

A wave of excitement surged through the guards.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

They responded loudly.

Without delay- Figures shot into the sky one after another.

Splitting in different directions. The search began on a massive scale.

Sun Yaoqing's gaze once again turned toward the distant horizon.

Her expression was firm.

(We must find them...)

No matter the cost-

No matter the effort-

She had to locate that mysterious expert.

Because she knew-

That person...

Could change the fate of the entire Falling Star Empire.
