Free Web NovelAt the moment Chen Pingping decided to go on a long journey, Bai Yisheng also bid farewell to a group of people behind him, quietly arriving under the black sky.
They were separated by a vast land, quite far apart.
Yet at this moment, it seemed they both sensed each other.
Chen Pingping smiled slightly and nodded.
Bai Yisheng did the same.
No one spoke, gazing at the sky and earth before them, feeling the violent power within; the Undying Furnace continued burning along the way, the heat spraying out could easily incinerate the void.
Truly terrifying.
The two did not act recklessly.
This way!
Guang Xiaoyu and her group began their return journey. She knew Chen Pingping's faraway journey to battle the Ancient City, the main reason being Wen Yuqing, so she did not stop him.
Secondly, her role would be more significant if she stayed behind; she needed to help her senior brother to handle the aftermath.
The Investiture of the Gods' brand was still there, a terrifying root, yet also a beginning.
At the edge of darkness, a spaceship was also looking for an opportunity to escape, yet unintentionally saw that fellow from afar.
Dark Unparalleled exclaimed in wonder, "Is that fellow going to leave?"
Damn? ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Really?
Having just pacified a turmoil, is he going on a long journey now?
"Young Master, our opportunity has arrived!" A middle-aged man suddenly said excitedly.
Pa!
Dark Unparalleled flicked his forehead, cursing under his breath, "Shut up."
How could he not know the opportunity had arrived?
The way ahead had been cut off, whether from the Ancient City or the Divine Clan, they couldn't enter for a while and now Chen Pingping was leaving.
Isn't this telling him there is no power on the earth to threaten them?
Good opportunity!
Dark Unparalleled squinted, a smile curling on his lips, suddenly feeling unrushed, quietly watching Chen Pingping.
In the Secret Realm.
Within Wuji Sect, deep inside, on that peak towering into the clouds.
Hongxiu in a red long dress, as always, stood quietly here, letting the breeze caress, her dress and long hair dancing together, gazing from afar, her graceful figure akin to a blooming delicate flower.
Very beautiful.
But within Wuji Sect, no one dared to make advances on her.
Not only because of the Sect Master's reasons, but also... because she herself was too cold and ruthless. Recently, the intelligence conveyed back by Shadow described Mo Wuwei's situation.
At that time, Mo Wuwei was still alive.
Yet Hongxiu was unmoved, without any intention of support, until later when Mo Wuwei's death news returned, the whole Sect was silent.
Moreover, she issued the order to send Mo Wuwei, Wen Qingshan, and others out to guard the Ancient Road.
Zhuge Wushuang came many times, standing behind her not far away, yet he never spoke...
This time, he came again.
Attired in plain blue, yet his face was filled with fatigue and the signs of age, his temples beginning to gray, he was walking towards old age, then spoke to the coquettish figure, "Is causality really that important?"
Because of fear of causality, so... didn't support them, even dispatching a few strong cultivators wouldn't do?
So they could only watch Mo Wuwei being slain, watch He Yitian being suppressed, Wen Qingshan was somewhat better...
Zhuge Wushuang couldn't understand.
Hongxiu lowered her eyelids, her lips moved, but didn't immediately answer, rather she waited a few minutes, then pointed ahead saying, "Look ahead, there are countless mountains and many towering trees there, but if a storm hits, can they withstand it?"
Zhuge Wushuang understood.
The Human Clan might have towering mountains and trees, but scattered as they are, how could they resist the Divine Clan's invasion?
Ultimately, isn't it relying on Wuji Sect?
So, right now, safeguarding Wuji Sect is more important.
It's the logic, but not the truth Zhuge Wushuang wanted.
He shook his head, "They are also people of Wuji Sect, you sent them out, won't it touch causality?"
If a few people battle, wouldn't cause causality, then... dispatching a few more strong cultivators for support, why not?
Hongxiu's lips curled bitterly.
At this moment, behind Zhuge Wushuang came the voice of Shisan, "It's not like that, their fate is different, so naturally their destiny is different, they are Wuji Sect people, they could also not be, so... them battling and guarding the Ancient Road wouldn't affect Wuji Sect, but if they step out, the causality of heaven and earth would instantly engulf here."
Zhuge Wushuang frowned, "???"
"Sect Master Hongxiu also wanted to act, to support Mo Wuwei, but she couldn't!" Shisan walked slowly, still with a youthful appearance, with refined features, red lips, and white teeth.
Only his eyes weren't that clear anymore.
Over the years, he had calculated Heavenly Fortune Tao many times for Wuji Sect, bearing numerous terrible Tao Fruit.
Hongxiu remained silent.
Shisan sighed, and continued, "What they see may not be true, but... being the supreme high level of Wuji Sect, you ought to know the truth."
Saying this, he headed for the mountain top.
Hongxiu liked staying here not due to its height, or because the scenery was great, but because it was the edge of the Secret Realm.
Shisan extended a finger.
Suddenly, the sky dimmed, winds and rains intertwined, lightning and thunder roared, overwhelming pressure crushed down.
In that instant, Shisan seemed to have walked through the gates of hell, when he withdrew his finger, that handsome face had already turned pale.
Zhuge Wushuang stood solemnly, "You..."
"A god is plotting, watching Wuji Sect, accumulating countless calamities and causality; if Wuji Sect dares to step out of the Secret Realm, or acts, we would turn to ruins." Shisan's voice trembled.
"Who?"
"Can't see clearly, the causality is too large." Shisan shook his head, "So, we need a contract."
"What kind of contract?"
"The brand of the Investiture of the Gods." Shisan said, "If someone can merge it and bring it to Wuji Sect, we could return to the world, but this step is very difficult."
"???"
"Firstly, the person who can merge the Investiture of the Gods brand must be one seen once in a million years, secondly... he must enter the Nine Heavens, and his realm must be strong enough, otherwise, even if all conditions are satisfied, when merging the Investiture of the Gods brand, he would be devoured by it." Shisan exhaled a breath.
A god acts, laying the grand scheme.
Heavenly causality loops around, Wuji Sect has no choice but to hide from the world, this is their helplessness.
At this moment, Zhuge Wushuang finally knew the truth, after taking a look at Hongxiu, fell silent.
He thought Wuji Sect had developed to such an extent, already very powerful, needing no fear of strong enemies, but now it appears, strong enemies are far more fearsome than imagined.
They still must remain vigilant, tread cautiously.
Shisan no longer spoke, quietly enjoying the cool breeze, revealing a rarely seen smile, understanding that heaven and earth are balanced.
With calamity comes a way to solve it, so... could the person destined by fate have appeared?
Now only waiting.
Hongxiu slowly stretched out her hand, eager to follow Shisan.
Seeing this scene, Zhuge Wushuang was shocked, "Don't!"
The slender jade hand finally stopped short of the mountain top...
Hongxiu glanced at him, rolled her eyes, saying, "I'm not stupid."
Shisan returned to his senses, his face not looking good, "Are you implying I'm stupid?"
"I never said that," Hongxiu shrugged.
