Chapter 467 Ascending the Tiantai and Asking the Heaven! (2)
Seeing that Gong Yimo finally came out, the man clad in gray knew that he had achieved the first step of the plan. Therefore, he revealed a smile on his stiff face which appeared to be very bizarre-looking.
"Heheh… little princess, it must be tiring to wear so many clothes. Do you want me to help you?"
He smiled evilly. However, there was no desire in his eyes. He just purely wanted to humiliate Gong Yimo.
The moment Gong Yimo saw him, she knew who the culprit was!
She slowly clenched her sword, knowing that it was inevitable for a fierce battle.
The two were both above average and extremely strong. If they really fought with their full extent, masters not of the same level couldn't even get close to them!
When Bai Sheng saw the situation, he said "oh no" and then dashed back to the Tiantai.
At the Tiantai, it was time to ask the heavens now. Why was it going so quick? Bai Sheng was anxious and his forehead was drenched in sweat.
At this time, the official hollered loudly, "The auspicious time is here. Asking the heavens—"
Hearing this, everyone got on their knees again. Meanwhile, the emperor cupped the heavenly book and asked a bit doubtfully, "Today is winter of December 1921. I am the third emperor of Da Yu, Gong Cheng. I am here to ask the heavens right now! I have a daughter who is clever and intelligent. She has contributed greatly to Da Yu and to the common people. She is knowledgeable and can take on the heavy responsibility. I have granted her the same status as the crown prince as a result, and she is conferred the title as Phoenix of the Glory!"
It was unclear whether it was a coincidence or not but the sky suddenly flashed and there was the faint sound of thunder as if the heavens really heard his comment, indicating its displeasure.
Gong Cheng clenched his teeth and said the last sentence, "I'm asking the heavens and the earth. Please give me the directions!"
He finished the rest of his words when lightning suddenly sparked and lit half the sky up.
The clap of thunder seemed to be right in front of them, making many officials and their family members let up gasps of shock. Before Gong Cheng could say anything to save the situation, the thunder erupted.
Gong Cheng's face darkened and he looked at the sky in seriousness.
At this point, he heard the empress dowager laugh proudly, "Emperor, have you received heaven's indication?"
The common people's faces turned unwell at this sight.
More or less, people believed in this. It was clearly an auspicious and lucky day, but this had to happen during the day of the princess' title conferring ceremony.
Plus, the auspicious time was about to come and the princess isn't even here yet. Could this be the heaven's indication? The princess was inauspicious and she couldn't recover her position?
For Gong Yimo, she gradually sunk into a bitter battle.
She had close moves with this master. Even more, it was unclear who designed the clothes. Don't mention how there was only one button on each layer, but the layers were really long. The material for the clothes was heavy brocade. Therefore, she struggled to fight. Besides, the other party was being sneaky and despicable, seemingly intentionally slashing at her clothes and attempting to humiliate her.
Slash.
The man clad in gray's rusted sword slit her clothes and revealed the vermillion color garment within.
Then, it was the sound of cloth being slashed once again.
ƥαṇdαηθνε| He cut off the button of her outer garment, and her clothes opened wide, making Gong Yimo look very battered.
Thankfully, she ducked quickly. Otherwise, if that slash was any deeper, the clothes in front of her chest would be slashed completely. Her figure would be revealed in front of everyone, and she'd be the laughing stock of the world!
Seeing how restrained she was, the man clad in gray chuckled. "Are the clothes too much of a burden? Let me help you!"
