Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 648 - 642: It’s Fate!2

She spoke briskly like pouring beans out of a bamboo tube, and knelt down with the child to kowtow;

Sixth Uncle hastily added, "The Immortal Masters are good people. Whenever there’s a disaster or trouble in the village, we go to them for help, and they always find a way to solve it. Without their protection, the old and young in our village would have long perished!

The villagers are honest farrs; just show us the way, and we will be eternally grateful, repaying you like cattle and horses!"

"You suffered a natural disaster but can still move and speak, and haven’t been frightened; it seems the fellow cultivators truly protected the people well." Yun Shu observed coldly, seeing no deception, and nodded, "You two should go back and rest. I have so words to say to this fellow cultivator."

Qin Yunfan was both excited and nervous, afraid of failing the "test," as the lives of hundreds would be endangered in the vast void!

As a cultivator pursuing the path of the great way, he knew the obstacles; even facing death on this path wasn’t regrettable. But if the Haoyue Sect’s legacy were to be severed here, wouldn’t it be a pity?

Besides, he was leading the youngest generation, still young boys and girls with naive faces. If not for a calamity like heaven and earth collapsing, they could be considered promising seeds, able to endure drifting in the void. He, as the Elder of the Sect, must find them a path to survival!

"While drifting in the void, have you encountered a pitch-black hole with strong attraction?"

"Pitch-black hole?" Qin Yunfan was slightly startled upon hearing, and shook his head honestly, "No. When heaven and earth suddenly collapsed, I intended to lead the disciples back to the sect hall. Unexpectedly, villagers from the foot of the mountain sought us for rescue, so I commanded the disciples to form a formation to protect them.

Who would have thought that in a mont, the earth and mountains crumbled!

With boulders crashing and debris colliding everywhere, we could only try hard to fend them off while rescuing any survivors we encountered; we also saw survivors drift toward different directions on other fragnts we couldn’t reach.

The fragnt we were on was originally larger, but shrank as it collided with others. After the dust settled, looking back, we saw the entire spherical world shattered into countless fragnts, drifting at an incredibly fast speed.

Our position beca small and light, drifting far into the void quickly, and soon we couldn’t see the other fragnts. After that, it’s been a long drift, unaware of day and night or specific ti..."

He sighed heavily, "I’ve imagined encountering fellow surviving sect mbers or other worlds, leading disciples with the surviving villagers to settle. But the void is vast, and so far, I’ve only t you, Fairy, so I plead for your rescue!"

Yun Shu observed his words and deanor closely, not seeming to lie, and pondered for a mont before nodding, "Then I have one last question.

Since fellow cultivators are drifting in the void and painstakingly protecting mortal villagers, how do you have sufficient Spiritual Power here on such a barren fragnt, and how do the mortals have sufficient food and water to sustain Life?"

Indeed touching on the most crucial issue, Qin Yunfan couldn’t help feeling sowhat guilty.

Should he tell the truth?

The other party called him "fellow cultivator," indicating a High Realm cultivator knowledgeable of the void.

If he lied saying he had enough Spirit Stones, Elixir, and food and water resources in his Storage Bag, the other party would have no way to distinguish truth from falsehood, though suspicious, might muddle through;

But as a cultivator, one should act like a gentleman; how could he deceive a fellow with lies?

If he tells the truth, that praying to the Patriarch’s statue yields support when needed, who would believe such a thing?

"Well..." He pressed his lips, awkwardly smiled and said, "I won’t hide it from you, Fairy, we indeed encountered so strange things. Since drifting in the void, the resources in the Storage Bag depleted rapidly. These disciples are still young and haven’t cultivated to Fast, and both Spirit Stones and food and water are quite scarce.

In desperation, I... I prayed to the Patriarch’s statue for help, and indeed received sufficient water and food and Elixir when necessary, it’s simply unbelievable! Does Fairy know the mystery within?"

Ultimately, it was difficult for Qin Yunfan to go against the sect teachings instilled on the cultivation path; after speaking truthfully, he hurriedly added, "If it’s problematic or hinders rescue, Fairy need not be troubled, the prayer was only my act, unrelated to others; just rescue the others, leaving here alone is fine!"

Praying to a statue yields a response?

Yun Shu had never heard such a bizarre story; she flew over to look at the unremarkable statue, feeling very peculiar, and quickly stepped back to report using the Communication Stone.

"Is there really such a thing?" Jiang Yuan, upon hearing her account, imdiately perked up, hurriedly asking, "Quickly ask what assistance they’ve received! Is there anything special about the water and food? What’s the quantity of Elixirs?"

His conjecture was likely to obtain precise answers at this mont, and he felt quite excited.

Monts later, when Yun Shu returned precise counts of "sweet water, delicious rice and dishes," "received fifty-two Grain Avoidance Pills, Spirit Core Pills, and Blood Replenishing Pills," Jiang Yuan imdiately rembered the previous order completed with ’Faith Value’!

Everything matched!

So the system’s received charitable order was the distress signal from survivors drifting in the void, and the Faith Value he gained ca from these void refugees!

Each link intertwined fatefully, filling Jiang Yuan with an unusual emotion - he was not only cultivating farmland, nor rely completing various orders; behind each grain delivered was vibrant Life!

This mont, the sense of farming achievent soared to its peak!

He shivered with delight, his back slightly warming.

To complete a side quest, he ventured into the void, and with Yun Shu perfectly suited for void exploration, her aimless flight led her to a fragnt where he had sponsored survivors, what a coincidence!

If he didn’t rescue them now, it truly wouldn’t make sense.

"Fellow cultivators, my..." Yun Shu, upon receiving instructions, flew to the fragnt’s edge, intending to relay his words, but reconsidered that addressing him as "sir" lacked prestige compared to "master."

She cleared her throat and corrected herself, "My master knows your plight and specifically sent to guide you. Due to the nurous dangers in the void, I worried about rescuing the wrong people, so I asked several questions.

Now that it’s confird, fellow cultivators, are you willing to accept my master’s rescue? If not, you may leave on your own; my master never forces anyone; if you are willing, gratitude for the life-saving favor ntioned earlier should be given to my master."

Qin Yunfan felt a surge of enthusiasm, imdiately performing a bow of gratitude, "Many thanks, Fairy, for the guidance! For the life-saving grace of our benefactor, we shall repay with all our heart!"

"The Fairy’s master is certainly an Immortal, right?"

"Surely an Immortal! Otherwise, how did he know we needed rescue?"

"Then, where will we be taken? Up to the sky?"

"Tsk! You wish! It’s more likely the Immortal Masters go to the sky, but how could a bunch of farrs like us ever get there?"

"The Little Immortal Master ntioned other worlds, perhaps she’s leading us to them?"

"If we could go to heaven, that’d be wonderful..."

...

The mortal villagers also expressed willingness to accept the guidance, all cheering excitedly. With a Fairy coming to rescue, only a fool would stay to await death!

After both parties finished communicating, Jiang Yuan eagerly pressed the fusion-devouring button.

Then he saw a gray progress bar appear on the automatically expanded Riverfront Village instance, indicating it’s in the process of fusion; please refrain from entering or exiting the instance.

At the sa ti, Qin Yunfan and his group suddenly found their fragnt of the world enveloped in a gentle light, blocking the fierce winds outside, making breathing suddenly smooth, and even their bodies felt much lighter instantly.

The light grew more intense and thick, soon obscuring the void and the Fairies whose clothing was fluttering.

Then the light gradually dissipated, with birds singing in their ears, warm sunlight bathing their bodies, the scent of grass and flowers in their noses.

Dazed for a while, Qin Yunfan was surprised to find part of the sect had fused at the foot of a mountain, not far was a picturesque scene, clear air with birdsongs and floral fragrances, a vibrant new world!
