Junior sister, keep forbear for a while, I almost become invincible as soon! Chapter 487: A Stirring Speech

UGH!

Senior Brother really is sothing. He clearly cares so much but is too afraid to say it directly.

So frustrating!

I’m a girl; am I supposed to make the first move?

Guang Xiaoyu let out a breath and smiled slightly. "Alright, Little Junior Sister, are you sure you haven’t left anything out?"

Zi Ji said firmly, "No."

"Then you’ll miss your Senior Sister, right?" Guang Xiaoyu asked.

"I’ll miss her. I’ll miss her every day."

"What if one day, your Senior Sister argues with Senior Brother? Whose side will you take?" Guang Xiaoyu suddenly asked.

Zi Ji was silent.

"Well? Will you or won’t you?"

"I want to know, why would you two fight?" Zi Ji asked, shocked.

"Arguing is just arguing; there’s no ’why.’ Just answer quickly."

"What are you arguing about?" Zi Ji insisted. "I need to know the reason to decide whom to help."

Such a blockhead.

Guang Xiaoyu didn’t press her further and waved her hand. "I’m leaving. I need to pack my things." With that, she got up and walked toward the depths of the City of Extinction.

Behind her, Zi Ji frowned, an ominous premonition stirring in her heart.

...

Fighting? Of course, it would be over the Emperor Spirit!

Guang Xiaoyu shrugged and strode forward, finally arriving before the Emperor Spirit. "Senior Brother has commanded that you co with , right now, imdiately."

...

「Outside the Star Sea.」

Earth Chicken had walked around a few tis. Upon returning, her face was full of excitent. "I sensed it! There really are remains of our ancestors!"

Chen Pingping smiled. "Stay calm."

Yang Wuzong hadn’t directly taken him into the Star Sea, which showed that Yang Wuzong had so reservations. That made sense. They had just left the Dragon Soul Secret Realm, chatted for a bit, and then clamored to follow Yang Wuzong, betraying the Wuji Sect on the spot. Any normal person probably wouldn’t believe it, would they? It was outrageous.

Before long, a young man ca out. "The Elder invites you."

The young man led them into the Star Sea. What entered their view was indeed a vast expanse of water, with nurous islands floating densely upon it. This was the Star Sea.

"A small world," Earth Chicken stated.

No wonder she had groped around for so long and couldn’t find an entrance, nor could she sense the presence of any Array. So that was how it was.

The young man looked at Earth Chicken in surprise.

What breed of chicken is this? It can even talk?

As they proceeded, many young Disciples looked at them curiously, scrutinizing them.

Among those scattered islands, strong fluctuations of aura also emanated. Saint Realm. They were guarding various positions of the Star Sea.

Not only that, but deep in the seawater, glinting lights emitted strange fluctuations.

Earth Chicken sensed it and was startled. "A Heaven Tao Divine Weapon!"

Her shock wasn’t because she was uninford, but because she sensed the trendous life force within the Divine Weapon.

Very frightening. That Heaven Tao Divine Weapon seed to be taking form.

"This old hen has sharp eyes," the young Disciple said with a light laugh, turning back to look at her. "Deep under the sea lies the Heaven Tao Divine Weapon of our Star Sea lineage. However, it’s best not to get too close, or it might be dangerous."

Earth Chicken’s face darkened.

This damned brat, actually calling an old hen? If we were outside, I’d definitely kill him!

The group arrived at an island and entered a majestic palace.

Inside, there were many figures—mostly the higher-ups of the Star Sea, including a young prodigy.

HMM?

Chen Pingping suddenly froze. He actually saw a familiar face—Chen Shixian. What is she doing here?

Chen Shixian also noticed him. For a mont, they just stared at each other.

Earth Chicken blurted out, "FUCK!"

Jiang Ni’er wanted to laugh.

Hei’s eyes darted around, his thoughts unreadable.

Next to Chen Shixian was a furry monkey. It was thin and looked shriveled, yet it was feasting lavishly, with food in one hand and drink in the other.

"AH! This old hen is quite amusing; it even talks..." an Elder squinted and chuckled.

"Indeed! I wonder what its at tastes like?"

"It should be fine for soup, but if braised, wouldn’t the at be too tough?"

"I suggest white cutting it..."

A group of them began to discuss this.

Earth Chicken was furious.

Fortunately, the Great Elder seated above spoke, looking at Chen Pingping. "You are Chen Pingping?"

Just then, Elder Yang Wuzong added, "Don’t worry. We’ve smoothed things over. We won’t make things difficult for you—it’s just a few simple questions."

Chen Pingping smiled and answered, "Yes."

"I heard you recognized the potential of a Great Emperor in Yang?" the Great Elder continued.

As these words were spoken, everyone in the room struggled to suppress their laughter.

Chen Shixian inwardly rolled her eyes. She knew this bastard Chen Pingping too well; he never showed up unless he was after sothing.

HUMPH!

Kid, once you enter the Star Sea, don’t even think about getting out alive.

"Yes!" Chen Pingping’s gaze was firm.

"And how can you tell?" the Great Elder asked.

"Because Elder Yang’s gaze is firm and his Tao heart is steadfast. I believe he can achieve Tao Verification," Chen Pingping said.

At Chen Pingping’s statent, Yang Wuzong, who was nearby, imdiately straightened up, staring straight ahead as if to tell everyone that yes, Chen Pingping was absolutely right.

The Great Elder laughed. "So, when you were stealing Yang’s airship, why didn’t you simply betray the Wuji Sect then and follow him?"

UH?

Chen Pingping thought for a mont. "I didn’t recognize it at that ti."

HEH! HEH!

The Great Elder wasn’t angry. "Then, may I ask, you entered the Dragon Soul Secret Realm with the Fairy. Why did everyone in your group co out alive, yet the Fairy is nowhere to be seen?"

As soon as these words were uttered, the entire room was shocked.

Yang Wuzong also had a sudden realization. He rembered that Chen Pingping and the others had all co out alive, but the Fairy and Wen Qingshan were absent.

The atmosphere suddenly grew oppressive, a palpable, murderous intent spreading silently.

Chen Pingping sighed. "She sacrificed herself to save ." As he said this, his face was filled with sorrow. "I failed her."

Sacrificed? How could that be? They couldn’t believe it. That was the Fairy!

"How did she sacrifice herself?" The Great Elder clearly didn’t believe him. The smile faded from his face, his tone becoming indifferent, even carrying a chill.

Chen Pingping sensed sothing was amiss, but he remained unafraid. He had many powerful trump cards, and with Hei and Mao Qiu by his side, if things really went south, they could just fight their way out and overturn this Star Sea.

"In the depths of the Secret Realm, we encountered a terrible creature. After a grueling battle, we managed to heavily injure it, but our group was also severely wounded..."

"How severe?"

"We were on the verge of death." Chen Pingping exhaled slowly. "Grievously injured and dying, only the Fairy and I were still able to fight. We combined our strength to try and kill it, but alas, the creature was too strong. At a critical mont, my body was pierced. It was she... she saved , disregarding her own safety, and sacrificed herself in the process."

Chen Pingping appeared overco with grief, his voice trembling and his eyes brimming with tears.

Without a doubt, this was a love story.

The crowd was sowhat moved, but skepticism remained.

An old man asked, "Didn’t you have any Spirit Pills?"

Chen Pingping said sorrowfully, "As everyone knows, our Wuji Sect is just a small Sect. The strongest among us are only at the Emperor Realm. We are truly poor. Forget Spirit Pills; even a Rank Two Spiritual dicine is considered a treasure to our Sect!"

"You’re lying!" the Elder scoffed. "Would a small Sect have the strength to plunder the foundations of over eighty factions? Could it withstand the slaughter from that avenging army? Would it annihilate Fairy Valley and absorb it into the Wuji Sect? And casually wield a Quasi-Emperor Weapon?"

Instantly, the air turned icy cold, the chilling pressure intensifying.

Chen Shixian watched the drama unfold with keen interest.

EH!

Chen Pingping sighed softly, his tone low and hoarse. "Everything about the Wuji Sect is a lie. It’s a grand conspiracy. The Sect Master forced to do it. I... I had no choice. The Fairy can prove this."

He scanned the crowd, his gaze earnest and tinged with a hint of sadness, then added, "As everyone knows, the Heaven Martial Continent is a prison where Spirit Qi is scarce and the Tao does not manifest. How could a powerful Sect possibly arise from such a place?"

"As for the Great Emperor’s Heritage, having followers who were once Emperor Realm powerhouses, and possessing a Quasi-Emperor Weapon and so on—all of that is a conspiracy!" Chen Pingping exclaid, his voice filled with agony.

The onlookers were utterly bewildered.

"Everyone," Chen Pingping took a deep breath, "I am willing to swear on my junior sister’s future happiness that everything I’ve just said is true. It is precisely because of this, upon recognizing Elder Yang’s potential as a Great Emperor, that I decided to flee the Wuji Sect and enter the Star Sea."

"I want to break free from this prison! I want to change my own destiny!" He grew more impassioned as he spoke, his gaze resolute, his tone firm, his blood beginning to boil. "After how the Wuji Sect has treated , how can I tolerate such humiliation? Once I beco stronger, I will definitely return to the Wuji Sect!"

"I will make the Wuji Sect flow with rivers of blood!" Chen Pingping clenched his fists tightly, his voice filled with conviction, venting the rage from the depths of his heart as if the Wuji Sect had slaughtered his entire family.

Everyone was profoundly moved.

Sitting to the side, Chen Shixian stared, dumbfounded. No way... Don’t tell these idiots actually believe that?
