Hearing Xu Zii’s words, the Heaven Inheriting Elder and his two companions hurriedly nodded their heads.
They responded, "Rest assured, Your Excellency.
As Ke Er is the future Young Palace Master of the Divine Maiden Palace, we will certainly guide her well."
"That’s fine then," Xu Zii replied, looking towards the expectant Gongsun Hongtian at his side.
He then said, "I don’t want to get involved in the matters between your Tianlun Sect and the Divine Maiden Palace, but for Gu Yue’s sake, I can give you a hand."
"Gu Mingxi is in your Divine Maiden Palace, isn’t she?" Xu Zii said.
Gu Mingxi was indeed Gu Yue’s mother.
"Yes," the Heaven Inheriting Elder said without any hesitation.
"Mingxi was supposed to be the Palace Master of this generation’s Divine Maiden Palace. Sadly, she broke the rules by falling in love with soone else, and even gave birth to a daughter.
So, we confined her."
"Release her," Xu Zii waved his hand and said.
"Yes," the Heaven Inheriting Elder nodded.
He knew in his heart that as long as Xu Zii was willing to protect the Divine Maiden Palace, any price was worth it.
"Alright, you all can go now, and rember what I said," Xu Zii stated.
Watching the retreating figures of everyone, Xu Zii knew it was ti for him to leave as well.
......
At the exit of the Red Dust Palace, the monk Da Zhi was waiting for him.
"Young Master Xu," Da Zhi greeted him with a light chuckle.
Tyrant Shadow unsheathed, and with a "clang," endless Blade Intent spiraled in midair.
The sharp edge of Tyrant Shadow rested against the monk’s neck.
"Young Master Xu, what is this about?" Da Zhi asked in confusion.
"Who are you, really?" Xu Zii inquired indifferently.
The two had t in Yellow City, and the other party had been waiting for him with preditation and helped him find the Nirvana Beads, all of which made no sense.
Since they did not know each other before.
"Does it matter?" asked Da Zhi smiling.
"Haven’t you obtained the Nirvana Beads, Young Master Xu?"
"It matters," Xu Zii stated.
"You have only one chance to answer; otherwise, I will kill you."
"I helped you because I wanted to board your ’big ship’," Da Zhi pondered briefly before speaking.
"Be clear," said Xu Zii.
"Our Pufa Cult has always been proficient in divination and changing fate. We can not only predict good or bad fortune and know the future but also calculate everyone’s destiny," said Da Zhi.
"The reason I ca to you was that before the death of our Pufa Cult’s elder, he forcefully opened the River of Fate with his remaining life.
He calculated that you might carry Destiny in this lifeti, ultimately leading to seek you out, to assist you, so that you could be appointed as a War General in the future."
"Your ancestor could calculate my fate?" Xu Zii shook his head and chuckled.
He had long since shifted his own destiny from the River of Fate in the Yuan Central Continent to the River of Fate in the Divine Continent.
No one in this world knows their destiny.
Not even a small elder from the Pufa Cult, let alone the Great Dao, would know.
"No, our ancestor could not calculate your destiny," Da Zhi hurriedly clarified.
"But he could calculate my opportunity. He told to go to Yellow City and wait there, saying the person I’d et could change my destiny."
Hearing Da Zhi’s words, Xu Zii reflected for a mont.
The thing about fate is very complex; the destiny lines of each person are interrelated.
It’s like a large tree, with countless branches and forks, and endless leaves.
Each one is unique, yet all are interconnected.
"Do you want to beco my War General?" Xu Zii asked.
"Yes," Da Zhi the monk said.
"The ancestor said this is my only chance to change my fate."
"Fine, but you’re too weak," Xu Zii put away the Tyrant Shadow and spoke indifferently.
With the doubts in his heart resolved, Xu Zii had made his plans.
The two walked out of the Red Dust Palace.
The territory of the Red Dust Palace was sealed off; either a powerful being could forcefully break through this locked realm,
or one had to rely on the palace’s formation tokens to leave, otherwise, departure was impossible.
The two took a formation token and left.
They felt a suppressive force around them, as if jumping from one space to another.
After a long while, the two erged from space traversal, returning to the surface of the Endless Heaven Sea.
The sky was still a white expanse of snow, and the ice layer covering the entire sea seed thicker than before.
The heavy snow subrged the whole sea, the entire world enveloped in white.
The fog around them was dense, and the flat boat they had arrived in was nowhere to be found.
"Where do we go now?" Da Zhi the monk asked.
"Qin City, and incidentally to rescue soone," Xu Zii said.
"The Nine States Domain, huh," Da Zhi the monk clearly knew the Central Continent well, nodding slightly.
He began to divinate the direction, otherwise, enshrouded in fog, they would not find the way.
"It’s to the southeast, but it’s quite far," Da Zhi the monk divined for a long while before speaking.
Their location was nearer to the Eastern Continent, but there was still a great distance of tens of thousands of miles from the Central Continent.
"No matter," Xu Zii waved his hand.
He released Chaos from the True Fate World.
The two sat on Chaos, urging it to haste to Qin City in the Nine States Domain at full speed.
As a Monster Beast of Immortal King level, Chaos’s speed was self-evident.
It was like moving through space in a single step, its might flowing expansively, heading toward the southeast.
...
Even though Chaos was fast, because Qin City was too far, Xu Zii began cultivating on the back of Chaos.
He had already cultivated up to the fourth skill of the Demonic Ten Skills, the Heavenly Demon Technique, and was now contemplating the Human Demon Technique.
This combat technique was more complex for Xu Zii than any of the ten Divine thods he had learned before.
Even the Heaven-reaching Trilife Gate and the Heaven-shaking Skill had not taken him as long to exhaust.
However, its power was, of course, extraordinary.
About a month passed in the Endless Heaven Sea, and Xu Zii finally arrived at the dock near Qin City.
Previously, he had left from this dock on a sailing ship, encountering Liubo Island and the Immortal Liubo on the way.
Not wanting to cause unnecessary panic, Xu Zii retracted Chaos not far from the place.
The two arrived at the dock and headed directly for Qin City.
After so ti apart, Qin City seed to have not changed at all.
The streets were crowded with people coming and going, bustling and lively.
The two navigated through the crowded throng, preparing to head to the Qin Residence.
However, halfway there, Da Zhi the monk, due to the crowdedness, accidentally bumped into a man coming from the opposite direction.
The man was reeking of alcohol, staggering as if he was half-drunk.
Adorned in a light green robe, he appeared quite handso and refined.
"Luo Shixiong, are you all right?" the group behind the half-drunk man in the green robe quickly stabilized him.
"Are you blind?" soone among them bellowed at Da Zhi the monk.
"Didn’t you see our Luo Shixiong? Why the heck did you bump into him?"
"I already stepped aside; it was he who bumped into ," Da Zhi the monk replied calmly.
