Chapter 2539: Selena’s Audience With the Celestial Emperor

"Why are you staying quiet? You’re the one who brought me here, you know?" Shiva remarked when Yuan refused to explain anything to her.

Yuan sighed and finally spoke, "I know, but this turned out to be much more complicated than I thought."

Shiva fell silent before turning to look at the massive gates once again, her eyes narrowed slightly. She was certain that there was no Eternal sealed behind them, but Yuan had no reason to lie either.

’He started acting suspiciously after learning our language... What kind of technique did he acquire from whatever is behind the gates?’ she wondered inwardly.

Then, she focused on the gates themselves, as she’d only been paying attention to the inscriptions thus far.

’These gates...!’ Shiva’s eyes widened when she realized something after paying closer attention to the gates—or more specifically, the materials they were made of.

Yuan raised an eyebrow when Shiva suddenly started approaching the gates, even pressing her palm against it.

’As I thought, these gates aren’t meant to keep Eternals sealed inside but to hide whatever is inside from us!’

The materials used to craft the gates were a rare material that not only completely blocked their senses but was also especially durable against their power: Eternal Essence!

However, Shiva wasn’t completely certain, so she decided to test it out herself.

After gathering a tiny amount of Eternal Essence in her fist, she threw a punch at it.

"What are you—"

BOOM!

When Shiva’s fists collided with the gates, her Eternal Essence rippled throughout them before scattering like water being dropped on a surface covered in water-repellent substances.

"What are you doing?" Yuan asked with a puzzled look on his face.

Shiva turned to look at him and calmly replied, "I have an idea why you’re hesitant about telling me what you know."

"You do? Let’s hear it."

"I don’t feel like it," Shiva shrugged before turning around and walking towards the exit. "I’ll be waiting for you outside. Take your time in here."

"What do you mean?"

"You’re going to open the gates and retrieve whatever is inside, right? I doubt you’ll want me around when you do that, so I’ll wait outside," she calmly said before returning control to Mu Xuelian, who quickly left the cavern, leaving Yuan alone.

"..."

Once he was alone, Yuan turned to stare at the gates.

Although he was alone in the cavern, it did not mean he was completely alone, as Prime Eternal Hilla could be watching him at this very moment.

After some thought, Yuan decided to open the gates anyway.

’Even if she is watching, she probably won’t be able to see inside once I close the doors behind me.’
