There were not as many Corpse Race mbers that were attracted to Purple Star Palace as those in the Muddy Sky Temple. As such, even though not many Jiu Zhou cultivators appeared there, they could still easily destroy the Corpse Race mbers.
Lu Ye looked around but couldn’t find Li Baxian and Feng Yuechan. Following an inquiry, he found out that they had left the Palace to hunt down the Corpse Race mbers with so other cultivators.
He then inford Li Baxian that he and Hua Ci were in Purple Star Palace before ending the conversation.
Most of the cultivators were racing after the Corpse Race mbers. It was a rare chance to easily obtain battle points, so they naturally wouldn’t miss it.
If not for the fact that Lu Ye had to recuperate, he would’ve done the sa.
Anyway, while it was true that he had to treat his injury, he had already acquired enough benefits. Therefore, he no longer had to pursue smaller benefits.
Moreover, many cultivators from Jiu Zhou had arrived in this world. Even if he went out to hunt down the Corpse Race mbers, he might not get many battle points. As such, he decided to focus on recuperation.
Not long after he reached the courtyard where they had stayed before, Pang Huanyin ca looking for him upon learning of his return.
“How are you?” she asked caringly.
Since the mission started, she had parted ways with Lu Ye to lead the cultivators from Purple Star Palace. As such, she hadn’t had a chance to see him. After the dust settled, she wanted to look for Lu Ye since he was injured, but she received news that sothing had happened in the Palace, so she had no choice but to return in a hurry.
“I’m fine. Hau Ci has treated my injury. I’ll fully recover in a few days,” Lu Ye replied.
Only then was Pang Huanyin relieved. “That’s great.”
With a solemn expression, she stepped backwards and saluted Lu Ye. “It’s all thanks to you that we’ve finally gotten rid of the Corpse Race. On behalf of Purple Star Palace and all the Humans in the Peerless Continent, I’d like to express my gratitude to you and other fellow cultivators from Jiu Zhou!”
“You don’t have to thank us, Palace Master. We have sothing to gain as well.” From Lu Ye’s perspective, they arrived in the Peerless Continent following the Heavens’ instructions. It was a training session for them, and they had gained enough benefits during the process.
Getting rid of the Corpse Race in the Peerless Continent was part of the training.
Pang Huanyin shook her head. “Despite that, we wouldn’t have seen the light at the end of the tunnel without all of you. All the Humans in the Peerless Continent and the people from Purple Star Palace will never forget your favour.”
Lu Ye spoke no further.
“Please get so rest, Senior Brother. I’ll hold a banquet for you when you recover.”
Pang Huanyin left the place as hurriedly as she had co. It was apparent that she had a lot of matters to attend to.
Lu Ye then shuffled towards his room. Hua Ci followed him and said softly, “Senior Brother, you have to get more rest. If you feel any discomfort, call right away.”
“Alright.”
“Also, Senior Brother, don’t activate your power in the next few days. Although you have a robust physique, you’re badly injured, after all. By activating your power, you might irritate your wounds.”
“Okay.”
“Senior Brother, are you getting so rest now? I’ll open the door for you.”
Lu Ye stopped in his tracks and landed a slap on her forehead. Then, he balled up his fist and drilled it against her head.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Just a while back, she kept calling him ‘Yi Ye’, and it was ‘Senior Brother’ now. She never called him in such ways in the past.
“It hurts!” Hua Ci leapt away and covered her head with both hands while clenching her teeth. “What’s wrong? Can soone else call you ‘Senior Brother’ but not ?”
“If you call that again…” Lu Ye inched closer to her.
Hua Ci stepped backwards in shock.
A helpless Ju Jia sighed and strode towards his room before closing the door. [Finally, it’s quiet now.]
A mont later, Lu Ye sat down cross-legged in his room while Hua Ci and Yi Yi were heard laughing from another room. He had no idea what they were talking about.
Recently, other people had been following Lu Ye around, so Yi Yi had rarely shown up.
She wouldn’t easily reveal herself in front of other people. Therefore, only several people closest to Lu Ye were aware of her existence.
That way, she could take action in secret most of the ti. After all, not many people knew Ghost Spirits existed, much less the fact that there was one who was always by Lu Ye’s side.
Lu Ye decided to ignore them as he sank his soul into the Source of Soaring Dragon Boundary.
He couldn’t return to Jiu Zhou for the ti being, and it was pointless to hunt down the Corpse Race mbers either. Also, he wasn’t in a hurry to cultivate his power. Therefore, he decided to seize the chance to look into the Source.
The Source of Soaring Dragon Boundary was a treasure trove that had yet to be fully explored. Lu Ye had gained a lot of benefits from it. However, he hadn’t found a powerful cultivator who used a Blade Technique so far. He wondered what had gone wrong.
As he looked into the Source, a sky full of Stars exploded in his mind. Without much choosing, he picked the brightest Star nearest to him. After he sank his soul into it, he could watch the life of the Star’s owner unfold before his eyes.
As of late, Purple Star Palace had been bustling with noise. More and more Jiu Zhou cultivators arrived in this place from different directions. That was because they had to co to Purple Star Palace to return to Jiu Zhou.
They had arrived in this world through the doors that were connected to the Divine Opportunity Columns in the Divine Trade Associations. Nevertheless, those doors couldn’t stay there forever. It took a lot of World Spiritual Qi to open the doors, and it would be even more energy-consuming to sustain them for a long ti.
Hence, not long after they arrived in the Peerless Continent, all the doors disappeared.
They were not worried, though. As long as there was a Divine Opportunity Column, they could go ho.
Also, the Heavens in Jiu Zhou had left behind an instruction for all of them.
At a specific ti, the Heavens would open a door through the Divine Opportunity Column in Purple Star Palace. By then, the cultivators from Jiu Zhou could return to the Cloud River Battlefield.
As ti passed, more and more cultivators ca to Purple Star Palace.
Certainly, the people from Purple Star Palace were hospitable to these cultivators from Jiu Zhou. After all, these guests had co all the way here to help them solve a crisis, ensuring that they no longer had to live miserably like they used to.
Therefore, they never stopped any Jiu Zhou cultivators from entering Purple Star Palace. Other than so forbidden areas, these cultivators could freely move around in the Hidden Realm.
But that was when the conflict arose. Soon, the people from Purple Star Palace discovered that these cultivators from Jiu Zhou were not on the sa side.
They seed to belong to two opposing sides. When Corpse Race mbers were still around, they could set aside their differences and focus on destroying the enemies to gain battle points.
Now that all the Corpse Race mbers had been eliminated, these Jiu Zhou cultivators had nothing else to do, and that was when the conflict broke out.
There were a large number of Jiu Zhou cultivators in the Peerless Continent this ti. Although most of them were restrained, there were still so reckless people. Even in a hostile environnt such as the Peerless Continent, an organisation nad the Pure Land existed, let alone in Jiu Zhou.
How the conflict started was untraceable. Perhaps two cultivators were displeased with each other, and things escalated quickly until both sides were ready to fight each other.
Both sides quickly gathered more people, and there was a large-scale confrontation in front of Purple Star Palace. Things had co to a point where both sides were ready to contend with each other head-on. If things went awry, many people would be injured or killed.
No Hidden Realm had ever seen so many Jiu Zhou cultivators gathering in one place, and it was the biggest conflict in history where so many Cloud River Realm Masters had been involved.
When Pang Huanyin ca to look into the matter, she instantly realised it was beyond her power to solve the conflict.
She wasn’t a cultivator from Jiu Zhou, to begin with. Even if she was, she didn’t have the right or power to deal with such a matter.
“Inform Senior Brother Lu about it right now!” she told the person beside her.
The cultivator was startled. “Which Senior Brother Lu?”
He wasn’t even aware that Pang Huanyin had a Senior Brother.
“Lu Yi Ye!” Pang Huanyin was suddenly blushing.
Upon coming to his senses, the cultivator turned around and returned to the Hidden Realm.
Presently, on the Spirit Peak where Lu Ye stayed, he opened his eyes with a dejected expression.
It had been a few days since he started looking into the Source. He had acquired so benefits, but it also felt as if he had gained nothing. He didn’t find any cultivator who used a Blade Technique. Instead, he witnessed the lives of several cultivators of different factions.
The clamour outside didn’t affect this place. That was because so cultivators from the Palace had been keeping guard around the Spirit Peak, which Pang Huanyin had made a forbidden area.
Whenever so Jiu Zhou cultivators approached this place, they would be inford that this was where Lu Ye and Hua Ci stayed.
They were already wary of Lu Ye, not to ntion that Hua Ci was also around.
There was no doubt Lu Ye was the one who had acquired the most benefits during the trip to the Peerless Continent. That was because he had gotten more battle points than everyone else.
On the other hand, Hua Ci beca famous during this period.
As the only dical Cultivator who could dispel Source Corpse Poison, many Jiu Zhou cultivators had sought her help. Through word of mouth, they soon heard of Hua Ci’s na.
Lu Ye was a ruthless killer while Hua Ci was a dical Cultivator who had saved many people. Certainly, no one would dare disturb their rest.
However, they were curious about why the two of them stayed on the sa Spirit Peak. Perhaps Lu Ye was struck with Source Corpse Poison as well, so he threatened Hua Ci to treat him.
When they thought about the fact that the gentle and kind-hearted woman had fallen into the hands of a ruthless man such as Lu Ye, they felt sorry for her. It was as if she had been taken away by a beast.
Naturally, many cultivators from Thousand Demon Ridge were distressed for this reason.
When the cultivator sent by Pang Huanyin arrived at this place, Hua Ci ca to greet him. Upon learning about what was going on, she furrowed her brows.
“I suppose Lu Ye is still recuperating.”
She hadn’t seen Lu Ye in the past few days since their return, so she had no idea if the man had recovered. Naturally, she wouldn’t dare disturb him.
“What should we do, then?” The cultivator was flustered. From the perspective of Purple Star Palace, these cultivators from Jiu Zhou had done the people in the Peerless Continent a huge favour. Therefore, they wouldn’t want to see the two sides confront each other because of so past grudges.
