Chapter 464B – Qin Yu, You Can Do it!
Her long eyelashes quivered and she slowly opened her eyes. “You know that every iota of strength I have right now is precious. I don’t have energy to waste on you.”
Undying’s tone was faint. “I am simply curious. How come you didn’t tell Qin Yu just how deep a price you paid in order to help shield him from the demonic altar?”
“It’s meaningless.” Spirity’s eyes were faint. “Since he is the one I chose, I am willing to offer my everything to him. This is a choice I made of my own volition, so why should he shoulder more pressure because of that?”
Undying coldly sneered. “You chose him? Based on what qualifications? Why? Because of his good luck?” He took several steps forwards, his voice becoming increasingly sharp and piercing. “For you and I to have lived until now, if we are talking about luck alone, then our luck is far, far better than his. Otherwise, we would have long since been dispersed between this world. It isn’t easy for us to survive, so how could you so easily hand over your own future like this!?”
Spirity glanced at him and her lips curved up in a smile. “It seems Qin Yu has done well to even move the likes of you. Otherwise, you would never have said these things to me. Heh, rather than asking me or questioning me, how about changing your own mind instead? You and I both know that we are people who are rejected by the world. If we truly wish to make a comeback, we must make a choice, otherwise on what basis do we have to ask others for help in the future?”
She closed her eyes, her expression peaceful and without regret. “I have chosen my own future and am hopeful towards it. So, even if I must suffer hardships now, even if I must endure the torment from the power of darkness, my heart is stable and will never waver. Undying, to be indecisive and not make a choice, that isn’t good for you. I hope you can think things through soon.”
In the darkness, there was the sound of Undying clenching his jaws. Even though he had no facial features, he could still produce these types of sounds. It was indeed surprising.
“I won’t make my bet that easily. This is my last chance. Do you know? This is my last chance, my final opportunity!” He turned and walked away. When he left the palace, his voice transmitted from afar, “There is one point you were correct on. Qin Yu indeed did well. His luck is incredible, and he unexpectedly has a chance of completing the process of having the Soul Summoning Bell recognize him as master. If he can truly succeed, then I will accompany you together on this insane adventure…everything will depend on his good fortune!”
Atop the altar formed from the power of darkness, Spirity opened her eyes, revealing a trace of relief, pride, as well as worry. Treasures of heaven and earth were often heaven-defying, but they were accompanied by risks. Having the Soul Summoning Bell recognize a master wasn’t a simple matter at all.
“Qin Yu, you can do it! I believe you can do it, so don’t disappoint me!” She gently sighed and closed her eyes, falling into a deep slumber. Only this deep slumber could slow down the departure of the strength she was losing.
Perhaps Qin Yu had guessed something. All this time, he had tried to avoid borrowing the strength of the demonic altar as much as he could, thus reducing the pressure on her. It was unknown what Spirity was thinking, but in her deep sleep, a light smile appeared on her face.
…
Black Demon Sect.
Tuba and Tutou had completed a new transaction and were now separating the spirit materials and seeds. This transaction was a good deal for them, but there wasn’t much happiness on their faces.
Outside the hall, Xu Sheng led several Black Demon Sect cultivators over. He smiled and said, “You two, I have just found some more business for you. You will need to give me a thick red envelope for this.”
Tuba laughed. “Of course. Honored guests, please discuss the transaction with my brother here. There are some minor matters I need to consult with Steward Xu about.”
The two entered the hall. As soon as they walked in, the smile on Xu Sheng’s face disappeared and he clenched his teeth, shouting, “Just where is the grandmaster!?”
Tuba had a solemn expression. “He is currently in seclusion.”
“You can use those words to fool others. Let me tell you something. There are already people in the sect who are investigating this matter.” Xu Sheng lowered his voice, “Just yesterday, several disciples were sent into the dungeon. Although the interrogation was concealed to a great extent, I still managed to obtain some news. Some people are investigating what Grandmaster Yao’s current condition is like. Don’t tell me that you haven’t noticed anything!”
Xu Sheng coldly sneered. “Haven’t you noticed that there have been more and more cultivators coming to exchange materials recently? How long will those pills you have last for? Once you run out of pills to exchange, you should understand just what will happen afterwards!”
Tuba frowned. He was well aware of why His Highness wanted others to think that he was still in the Black Demon Sect. If others were to discover he had privately left, at this point it was sure to create all sorts of unnecessary issues. He mulled it over and then looked at the nervous Xu Sheng. He gently sighed, “I have no idea where the grandmaster has gone.”
Xu Sheng’s heart shrank. “Did the grandmaster say when he will return?”
Tuba’s expression was calm. “Before the grandmaster left, he said he would return in four months.”
Xu Sheng lifted a trembling finger. He stared at Tuba and gasped, “Don’t tell me that the grandmaster has already been gone for four months!”
Tuba tranquilly replied, “To be exact, he has been gone for five months and 14 days.”
The world flipped upside down and Xu Sheng’s field of vision flashed black. He nearly toppled to the ground. “You…you…you bastard, I have already asked you several times before, so why didn’t you tell me then!”
Tuba coldly sneered. “If it weren’t for the loyalty you have displayed to the grandmaster so far, even if you asked me a hundred more times I wouldn’t have told you. Don’t worry. Nothing bad will happen to the grandmaster. He will return soon.”
Xu Sheng’s entire body trembled. He didn’t know who was trying to investigate Ning Qin’s whereabouts, but he actually smelled something fishy about this that left him feeling extremely restless.
This matter wasn’t as simple as it seemed!
He had already cast his lot with Ning Qin. If there was an accident, he would also be implicated. Fortunately, only these two barbarians seemed to know about this matter.
Tuba coldly sneered. “If you dare to have any crooked thoughts, I can simply break your neck. The grandmaster will definitely return. That is all you need to remember!”
A cold chill passed through Xu Sheng’s heart. It was only now that he remembered this barbarian in front of him had the absolute strength required to crush him to pieces. His lips quivered and he clenched his teeth, saying, “I will try and find some way to delay for as much time as possible. If you have any method to contact the grandmaster, tell him to hurry back as soon as possible, otherwise we will all be in great trouble!”
He turned around and left the hall. As soon as he did, a brilliant smile appeared on Xu Sheng’s face. He chatted with the cultivators who had completed their transaction for several moments, laughed, and then bid his farewells.
Once everyone was gone, Tuba could no longer maintain the calm and confident demeanor he was keeping up. Worry appeared on his face.
Your Highness, just where are you?
…
What was nothingness? From ancient times until the present, after a vast and endless river of years, with countless amazing beings that had lived and lit up the skies like meteors, none of them were able to give a definitive definition for this.
It was darkness. No light could exist within it. It seemed to be the natural opposite of light, one that couldn’t produce any life. It was like a dead and unfathomably deep icy black sea.
It was empty, cold, and forever silent!
But in this utterly lifeless deep black sea, there were actually countless ‘islands’ floating around that had completely integrated into the darkness. These ‘islands’ came in different sizes, large and small. They floated through nothingness, flowing with invisible power.
If someone could reach through this nothingness and break past the surface of these islands, they would discover that what lay within them were independent spatial fragments. Some were desolate and some were filled with vitality. There were even some with intelligent beings born within, multiplying throughout generations and treating this ‘island’ as if it were their entire world.
Inside a medium-sized ‘island’, a sun hung high in the skies. The warm light sprinkled down gently upon the earth. There was a green grass that stood upon it. It extended towards the horizon for as far as the eye could see. It was so large that a single leaf seemed as if it could block out the heavens.
The golden veins on its surface had gradually turned to purple. It was translucent, as if it were made of jade. It looked warm yet exuded a terrifying aura.
As if a single movement of this grass could tear apart the world and break down stars.
However, this overbearing and tyrannical green grass was like a guard. It diligently stretched its waist, not allowing its leaves and branches to block out the sunlight from above.
Beneath its gaze was a medicine field that stretched out as far as the eye could see. Countless precious spirit plants grew like weeds. A breeze blew past, causing an intoxicating medicinal fragrance to fill the air.
Suddenly, at some part of the medicine field, the dirt suddenly cracked open and grass roots drilled out. They watched a space in front that had suddenly fallen into darkness. Within this darkness, two root sections were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. They soon became thick and sturdy, and their gray surface became covered with a rainbow of colors. The fine textures on their surface seemed messy and didn’t appear to follow any pattern at all, but there was an indescribable beauty contained in them.
As if this world had always been like this, and they had also always been like this.
The grass root was a bit taken aback. Its intuition told itself that these two branches were extremely unusual. However, it remembered that some time ago, the master seemed to have casually tossed a root section in, and that root section grew into these two branches. Did the master not know that this was an incredibly precious treasure?
After shaking a little, the grass roots completely suppressed any thoughts of disrespect towards the master in its heart.
The master was supreme.
The master possessed all the kindness and wisdom in the world.
How could the master not know about this?
Since the treasure had already germinated and grown, all it had to do was protect this treasure with all of its strength and wait for the master to pick it.
