"Hello, nice to meet you!"
Su Mo cupped his fist and greeted the guy and the two ladies as he came before them.
"Who are you? How can we help?"
The lady in a green dress asked as she tilted her head, looking baffled.
The guy and the lady in a white dress became wary and they started to size Su Mo up.
"My name is Duan Jingtian. I happened to hear your conversation and realized that you are from the Reincarnation Holy Court!" Su Mo said with a smile. He had changed his name as a safety precaution.
Duan Jingtian had been his arch-enemy when he was at Gale Island in the Firmament World.
"Yes. What's up?" The lady in a green dress curled her lips and asked with a proud look on her face.
She found that the youth who was standing before them did not look like a crook and he was only an Empty God. She was thus not afraid of him.
The youth in a yellow robe and the lady in a white dress did not respond and they merely stared at Su Mo.
The two of them were not as innocent as the lady in the green dress. They were wary of strangers who approached them out of the blue.
"I am thinking of going to the Reincarnation Holy Court to toughen myself up. I would like to make some inquiries since you are from the Reincarnation Holy Court!" Su Mo replied with a smile.
"What do you want to know?" The girl in a green dress asked.
"I would like to know the situation at the Reincarnation Holy Court. Is it chaotic? Is it safe to be there?" Su Mo asked.
"There's no cause for concern! The Six Great Palaces at the Reincarnation Holy Court are autonomous and they don't meddle with one another's affairs. Their power overwhelms the Holy Court, making it a safe place compared to Sky Pool Holy Court!" The lady in a green dress replied as she waved her hand.
"Oh? The Six Great Palaces? Which are the six?" Su Mo asked with a fixed expression although he was surprised.
He knew nothing about the Reincarnation Holy Court.
"Oh please! You are so ignorant. You don't even know about the Six Great Palaces!" When the lady in a green dress heard Su Mo's question, she pouted her lips.
The Six Great Palaces in the Reincarnation Holy Court are well-known in the Deity Plane but this youth knows nothing about it!
The youth in a yellow robe and the beautiful lady in a white dress were surprised as well.

This guy is ignorant! Or is he trying to dig information from them?
"Miss, can you enlighten me?" Su Mo asked sincerely as he cupped his fist at the lady in a green dress.
"After you reach the Reincarnation Holy Court, you will get to know about them!"
The youth in a yellow robe spoke. He then looked at the lady in a green dress and the lady in a white dress and said, "Qin'er, Luo Yu, there are six more days before Spatiotemporal City opens, let's come back later!"
The lady in a white dress nodded. The lady in a green dress smiled at Su Mo and said, "You have a low cultivation level. It is better for you to go to the Reincarnation Holy Court after you have become a deity!"
The three of them then turned away and left.
Su Mo was silent. The three of them have left!
Six Great Palaces?
Are there six palaces in the Reincarnation Holy Court that operate independently?
That means the Reincarnation Holy Court is not unified.
What about Di Yihun?
Has Di Yihun not unified the Reincarnation Holy Court? Is he not at the Reincarnation Holy Court? Or have the top powers from the Reincarnation Holy Court defied Di Yihun?
Su Mo knitted his brows. He realized that there might be an opportunity for him to turn the table around.
The situation at the Reincarnation Holy Court was not what he had expected!
When Su Mo saw that the guy and the two ladies had left, he followed them immediately.
He had to find out about the situation at the Reincarnation Holy Court or to be exact, about Di Yihun.
He had to know his enemy well in order for him to win the battle. He would not be able to turn the tables if he had no clue about his enemy!
"Brother Chu Yan, Sister Luo Yu, the guy seems to be following us!"
As the three of them were walking through the street, the lady in a green dress discovered Su Mo tailing them. She immediately reported to the youth in a yellow robe and the lady in a white dress.
Having said that, she asked, "Is he up to no good?"
The youth in a yellow robe glanced behind him and sneered, "This guy looks sneaky, and we have no idea where he comes from. If he is up to no good, I will kill him!"
"Let's ignore him. He has a low cultivation level and he will not be able to hurt us!" The lady in a white dress said as she shook her head.

"Let's go back to the inn!" The lady in a green dress said. Although she was young and not well-traveled, she knew that it would be better to avoid getting into trouble.
"Alright!" The youth in a yellow robe and the lady in a white dress nodded. They ignored Su Mo and went into a majestic-looking inn.
"Void's Best Inn!"
Su Mo stood in front of the inn and saw that the name of the inn sounded impressive.
The inn lived up to its name. It occupied a large area, and it was as tall as a tower.
Jade stones were mounted in the entire inn, making it look grand.
"The three of them must be staying in this inn!" Su Mo sighed and walked into the inn.
He then put up in the inn for the time being.
He was glad that Dawn Stones were used in the Deity Plane for trades.
There were different grades of Dawn Stones, namely the lower-grade, middle-grade, upper-grade, and the highest-grade.
Su Mo's Dawn Stones were from the Lower Plane. Although they were the best Dawn Stones from the Sky Tyrant Clan, they were not even comparable to the lower-grade Dawn Stones in the Deity Plane.
As Su Mo possessed a large number of Dawn Stones, he was able to make up the difference.
Su Mo was not in the mood to look at the luxurious room. After he had meditated for a while, he headed upstairs.
After he had entered the inn, he had been using his Spiritual consciousness to follow the guy and the two ladies, thus he knew where they were staying.
The three of them stayed at the fifth level and they were in three adjoining rooms.
Very quickly, Su Mo stood outside one of the rooms which belonged to the lady in a green dress.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The moment Su Mo was outside the room, the doors of the rooms beside it opened, and the youth in a yellow robe and the lady in a white dress darted out.
"What is your motive? If you don't tell us, I will not show you any mercy!" The youth in a yellow robe said sharply.
"I don't think you tail us merely for the sake of checking out the situation at the Reincarnation Holy Court!" The lady in a white dress said coldly.
Creak!
At that instant, the door of the middle room opened, and the lady in the green dress walked out.
"You are so rude! If you don't give us a good reason for tailing us, Brother Chu Yan and Sister Luo Yu will not let you off!" The lady in a green dress snorted.
"I mean no harm. I'm here only to make some inquiries!" Su Mo said as he cupped his fist.
"What is it?"
When the guy by the name of Chu Yan heard what Su Mo had said, he sneered, "You ask silly questions that are known to everyone. Why are you tailing us?"
"Simply because the three of you are from the Reincarnation Holy Court!" Su Mo's face darkened. However, he was not enraged by Chu Yan's sarcastic remarks.
"Leave now or I will not show mercy to you!" Chu Yan said coldly. He would have attacked Su Mo if he was not in the Spatiotemporal Region. He had refrained himself so as to avoid trouble.
If they were at the Reincarnation Holy Court, he would not have allowed a lowly person like Su Mo to tail him.
"I am truly sincere about getting information about the Reincarnation Holy Court and I am willing to pay you for that!" Su Mo said.
"How much are you willing to pay us?" Chu Yuan asked.
"3,000 Lower-grade Dawn Stones!" Su Mo replied. He did not have many Dawn Stones left and he had about 5,000. That was equivalent to 3,000 Lower-grade Dawn Stones in the Deity Plane."
"Hoho!"
When Chu Yan heard what Su Mo had said, he laughed disdainfully. He then said coldly, "Are you kidding us?"
3,000 Lower-grade Dawn Stones?
Chu Yan was speechless. The three of them are from the Human Palace at the Reincarnation Holy Court. 3,000 Lower-grade Dawn Stones are nothing to them. This guy is ridiculous!
"Alright, we will give you the chance to ask!"
The lady in a white dress, who had barely spoken, finally opened her mouth. She looked at Su Mo and said, "You may ask three questions. After you are done with the questions, leave. If not, you will have to bear the consequences!"
The lady in a white dress had no idea why Su Mo wanted to find out the situation at the Reincarnation Holy Court. However, if she could send him away by answering a few questions, she would not mind doing so.
Su Mo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard what the lady had said. He was glad that he could obtain the information without getting into any conflict.
"Thank you, Miss!"
Su Mo cupped his fist at the lady in a white dress. After pondering for a while, he asked the first question.

WISH MOUNTAIN
I could give you a typical synopsis that you'll gloss over...or I could tell you the essence of what the story will be. Still with me? Great! Let's get to it... WISH MOUNTAIN is inspired by fairy tales and, in a way, animated Disney movies. The biggest inspiration of them all is Beauty and the Beast. Why? Because I love it and hate it at the same time. The thing I hate about the movie is how the villain, Gaston, never got a chance for redemption. The movie was all about what is on the inside that counts, right? Beast went from bad-to-good because Belle learned to love and care about him. Was Gaston not worth that same chance for redemption? Sure he was a bad person, but so bad that he couldn't also undergo the same kind of change for the better? It was this question that got me thinking... what would Gaston's redemption look like? What kind of story would that be? From this nugget an entire epic story unfolded that has both outgrown, but has never forgotten, that original inspiration. So what can you expect? In essence: something like an epic, adult-orientated Disney story, which is gloves-off when it comes to violence and character trauma. I'll be doing my best to write a story that is as close to a classic adventure fairy tale with real stakes and meaningful characters as I can. The story begins with two orphans; Amaryllis and Chicory, who are whisked away to the magical WISH MOUNTAIN, and are faced with fending for themselves all alone. This is a HUGE story that will take YEARS for me to finish. If you're ready for a journey to Wish Mountain, then Once Upon a Time begins with Chapter 1...

The Eternal Vigil
The year is 2220, a time when governments and nation-states are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Instead, all prominent parts of human society are now organizing around the commands of three great Artificial Intelligences, owned and operated by the world's largest corporation. World peace has been achieved, and the very word 'politics' has disappeared from people's lips. Religion has largely disappeared, replaced in some parts by worshipping of the great AIs, but mostly substituted by a devotion to material goods and faith in the market. There is now a general consensus that the best form of government has been found. No, it is not democracy, nor is it autocracy or oligarchy. Instead, it is technocracy - rule by the learned, the intelligent, and the skilled. And who are more learned, intelligent, and skilled than the great AIs? Exactly, no one. The AIs will correct some market failures once in a while, but shall otherwise let the market be free. After all, the freer the market, the freer the people. Some may question how society advanced to this stage, but that is all they will do - question. Because they will not find answers, for history is no longer taught anywhere. After all, it is not a practical subject. One cannot get a decently paying job with a history degree. Society doesn't have any time for people to idly ponder about the past. No, this is a practical society of practical people: engineers, doctors, lawyers, developers, managers, bankers, soldiers, and the such. My name is Aiden Scivit and I used to be one such practical man: minding my own business, doing my job, with the faith that hard work will always be rewarded by the market...and that politics and philosophy were things thought of by idly people who leech off society. But this all changed, and here is my story, my history. Just because the stories of ages long past have been erased, does not mean that a brand new beginning cannot be created. The story is already finished but I still need to do some editing so a chapter should be released each day for a month. It is a bit political, as you can probably tell by the introduction, so there is that (it will low-key read like a philosophy dump 10% of the time, so really it's like Atlas Shrugged but liberal and worse lol). Also, I actually wrote this in grade 10 as part of my MYP Personal Project, and recently touched up on it for online publication. Finally, if you find the writing style passable and are interested in my other works, check out the one in the link below. It is a fantasy set in the Ancient Greek world, and is completed and uploaded in full: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/35099/the-oresteia-modernized
