Chapter 1052: Chapter 1051: This World Is Really Big
“Otherwise, our two sects wouldn’t have declined so rapidly.
Back when the Heaven Martial Emperor and the Nine Nights Immortal King were still around, Mufu Mountain was one of the most renowned places in the Four Directions Domain.
Thousands of disciples would co to Mufu Mountain every year to be recruited.”
Xia Wanqing’s mood was sowhat low.
“I am wholeheartedly dedicated to revitalizing our sect, but by myself, my power is minimal and my abilities are limited… Would you… would you be willing to join in this effort?”
“You’re putting on this pitiful look just to get to stay, aren’t you?” Xu Zii saw through her intentions right away.
“I’ve already spoken to Grandpa, when the ti cos for the Secret Realm inheritance, you and I will go together,” said Xia Wanqing directly after being exposed.
“I also want to see what the Galaxy Empire is like,” Xu Zii nodded in agreent.
“In addition, keep an eye out for a power nad True Martial Holy Sect.”
“Understood, I’ll ask Grandpa to help look for them, and inform you as soon as there is any news,” Xia Wanqing nodded her head.
……
Since the journey to the Galaxy Empire was scheduled three days later,
Xu Zii found himself with nothing to do.
Practicing his skills, knowing that it would be of no use in such a short period of ti.
And in understanding the Way, what exactly is to be comprehended? What is the Way?
It is the myriad states of life, it is birth, aging, illness, and death.
It is the rolling, turbulent world of mortal life.
And not just comprehended by sitting in ditation.
Because of the myriad of living beings, the joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure of life and death, the greed, stupidity, hatred, and wickedness.
Eventually, all of these weave together to create the world as it is now.
And that is why the Great Dao exists.
The so-called comprehension, the so-called transcendence.
We transcend living beings, yet ultimately, we must return to them.
Until the day cos when you are no longer bound by the Great Dao, only then can you beco a supre being.
……
Xu Zii wished to travel across the Nine Domains, starting from the Mortal Domain, experiencing trials along the way, witnessing life, and ultimately understanding the myriad of living beings.
The next morning, a loud yelling outside woke Xu Zii from his sleep.
“The Second Prince of the Galaxy Empire has co to visit Miss Xia.”
“What’s with the shouting early in the morning? Can’t people sleep?” Xu Zii pushed open the room door and spoke indifferently.
“May I ask who this gentleman is?” Prince Chen Luo looked at Xu Zii and inquired.
Beside him were Li Xiaoyuan and a lady in white.
The lady had her face covered from beginning to end, never revealing her true appearance.
“He is Miss Xia Wanqing’s husband,” Li Xiaoyuan bowed his head, deliberately lowering his voice as he spoke.
“So you’re Young Master Xu,” Chen Luo said with a smile.
“Please forgive my abrupt visit.”
“If you knew it was abrupt, why co?” Xu Zii replied.
“Just tell what you want.”
“This is a matter I can only discuss with Miss Xia,” Chen Luo shook his head in response.
“Then you might as well leave, she’s not available.”
Xu Zii, too lazy for further words, turned back toward his room, ready to go back to sleep.
“Young Master Xu,” Chen Luo called out from behind.
Xu Zii turned his head to look at him.
“It’s best to always leave so leeway in doing things. That Demon Dragon is indeed formidable, but it’s just of the Emperor Pulse; it hasn’t reached a point of invincibility.”
Chen Luo said lightly, “And in our Galaxy Empire, there is no lack of powerful Saint Vein experts.”
“Are you done talking?” Xu Zii waved his hand dismissively, “Seven, see the guests out.”
The figure of the Seven-Winged Demon Dragon erged once again.
Beside him, Li Xiaoyuan’s expression changed dramatically, as he was once again reminded of yesterday’s humiliation.
His clothes had been torn, and only after much hiding did he manage to return.
If others saw him, his lifelong reputation could be completely ruined.
Was there really going to be a repeat of that?
Watching the figure of the Demon Dragon advancing, its claw-like hand reminiscent of Kugu stretching towards the two.
Li Xiaoyuan was almost ready to close his eyes.
But in the next mont, a ‘thud’ of a muffled sound was heard.
He opened his eyes again to see a figure clad in white blocking his path.
It was the white-clad woman, her garnts fluttering as she held back the massive body of the Seven-Winged Demon Dragon with a single hand.
No matter how forcefully the Seven-Winged Demon Dragon exerted itself, she wouldn’t budge even half a step.
Xu Zii looked at the white-clad woman.
She was also gazing back at him.
“Interesting,” he yawned, muttering to himself.
“Young Master Xu, can we have a proper talk now?” Chen Luo said.
“What do you want to talk about?” Xu Zii inquired.
“Make a proposition. Let Miss Xia go,” Chen Luo stated.
“Whatever you want, just ask.
Xiaoyuan is deeply in love; I’ll do what I can to help him.”
“Thank you, Prince,” Li Xiaoyuan quickly expressed his loyalty from the side.
“The Heaven Martial Sect really has fallen,” Xu Zii slightly shook his head and said, “The conditions are up to to decide? You said it yourself.”
“As long as it’s within my power, you can ask for anything,” Chen Luo nodded.
“I want her,” Xu Zii pointed at the white-clad woman and said, “Co to my room tonight to warm my bed.”
As soon as his words fell, total silence enveloped the surroundings.
Only a chilling killing intent emanated from the white-clad woman, enveloping Xu Zii.
“What, is it sothing you can’t do?” Xu Zii asked.
“You are seeking death,” the white-clad woman said.
This was her first ti speaking, her voice as cold as millennia-old ice.
“That’s not a funny joke, Young Master Xu,” Chen Luo also spoke up.
“Forget it then, boring,” Xu Zii shook his head.
With a forceful shove, the white-clad woman sent the colossal body of the Seven-Winged Demon Dragon flying backward.
She forcefully flicked the ribbon from her sleeve.
Like the blade of a knife, the ribbon sliced through the air towards Xu Zii’s neck.
Just as it was about to make contact with Xu Zii’s neck, a figure appeared beside him.
A sword flicked up the ribbon, blocking it in front of Xu Zii.
It was Xia Wanqing.
She looked at everyone and spoke indifferently, “You’ve all gone too far.”
“She’s the one who instigated this,” said the white-clad woman.
“I instigated it? Why would I bother to provoke you early in the morning?” Xu Zii retorted.
The ribbon was split in two by that sword stroke.
He slowly picked up the ribbon, looked at the white-clad woman with a smile, and said, “This is yours, giving it back to you.”
He threw the ribbon from his hand, and the white-clad woman nonchalantly reached out to catch it.
The next mont a “rip” was heard.
The ribbon slashed across her palm, leaving a deep wound in the white-clad woman’s hand.
Blood flowed continuously.
The white-clad woman stood still, not tending to the wound, just silently staring at the ribbon in her hand.
“This world is indeed vast, with the Four Directions Domain and the Mortal Domain being just a tiny corner of it all.”
Xu Zii waved his hand.
“Tired, tired, I’m going back to sleep so more.”
The white-clad woman suddenly looked up, staring intently at Xu Zii, without blinking.
“You can consider what I said just now,” Chen Luo shouted from the side.
“Let’s go,” the white-clad woman said blandly, glancing at him.
Her figure took the lead, walking out of the courtyard.
“Wanqing, I,” Li Xiaoyuan looked at Xia Wanqing, wanting to say more.
But he was cut off.
“I am not an object to be passed around at will. Let’s go.”
Watching them leave, Xia Wanqing pondered for a mont before heading straight into Xu Zii’s room.
