“Why are you still following me?”
Ye Wushuang turned around and looked at Liang Sirui and the others, his voice tinged with dissatisfaction.
Liang Sirui halted her steps and began, “The Everlasting Fushang Fruit is with you, and I… I…”
“Speak plainly!” Ye Wushuang urged.
Taking a deep breath, Liang Sirui continued, “You have a knack for stirring up trouble and making enemies. I’m worried that if you provoke a formidable foe and get killed, I’ll definitely lose my chance at the fruit.”
There was a moment of silence.
Qin Muyu, displeased, interjected, “What kind of talk is that?”
At present, Qin Muyu had reached the seventh level of the Myriad Methods realm. Although she was not as strong as Liang Sirui, she knew how much she had improved after taking a single Creation-Supplementing Pill. Compared to the helplessness she had felt when facing Qian Guxing before, she now believed she could at least hold her own, if not defeat him.
Thus, facing the top talents from the major strong states, she had gained some confidence.
Liang Sirui said earnestly, “This is a matter of great importance. I’ve decided that I will accompany you and be responsible for your protection.”
Ye Wushuang’s brows furrowed.
“Suit yourself,” he said with a dismissive wave of his hand. “But if we encounter danger, don’t expect me to save you.”
With that, Ye Wushuang strode forward.
Liang Sirui continued to follow.
Over the next three days, Liang Sirui, along with several members of her family, stayed close to Ye Wushuang and his group. During this time, Ye Wushuang discovered several palaces and pavilions within the Azure Dragon Hall, where he found some royal-grade spiritual instruments, fourth-grade spiritual pills, and royal-grade spiritual techniques. There were gains, but they were not substantial.
Now that Ye Wushuang had reached the sixth level of the Myriad Methods realm, and Qin Muyu and Li Wenqing had both reached the seventh level, it was time to prepare for the Return-to-Origin realm. With less than four months until the next opening of the Forbidden Realm, Ye Wushuang was confident he could reach the Return-to-Origin realm by then.
Moreover, once they left, the Qingzhou region would undoubtedly be plunged into a fierce and bloody conflict. Ye Wushuang needed to be prepared.
On this day, the group was resting on the top floor of a tall tower, recovering their energy. They had just broken through several seals within the ancient tower and obtained some fourth-grade spiritual pills and royal-grade spiritual instruments, which had filled everyone with joy.
After a few days of interaction, the group had become more familiar with each other. Qin Muyu and Li Wenqing had also learned from Ye Wushuang why Liang Sirui was following them.
“Liang Sirui,” Li Wenqing asked curiously, “How did the major strong states and the forces from the central land of the Tianyuan Continent enter the Heavenly and Earthly Gates?”
She had always been curious about this. The Heavenly and Earthly Gates had opened several times before, and it was always the warriors from Qingzhou who entered. The fact that something different had happened this time was quite incredible.
“Heavenly and Earthly Gates?” Liang Sirui pondered for a moment and said, “You mean this Forbidden Realm?”
Forbidden Realm.
Heavenly and Earthly Gates.
They were just different names for the vast and peculiar space they were currently in.
Liang Sirui continued, “In fact, over the years, the forces from the central land have been searching for this Forbidden Realm. Do you know who the master of the Forbidden Realm is?”
“Who?” The others were all intrigued.
“A top-tier Saintly Heaven realm figure from the Tianxuan Continent, Mu Beige from the Mu family!”
Upon hearing this, the people from Spirit Sword Mountain were both shocked and bewildered.
They were shocked because, as Ye Wushuang had said, the Heavenly and Earthly Gates were indeed created by an invincible figure at the Saintly Heaven realm.
They were bewildered because Tianxuan Continent? Mu family? Mu Beige?
They had never heard of these names!
Not far away, Ye Wushuang stood by the window on the top floor of the ancient tower, his hands behind his back, gazing silently at the misty clouds outside. His clear eyes, however, flickered with a barely perceptible dim light that vanished in an instant.
“In the Tianyuan Continent, the body-refining stage is just the beginning of martial cultivation and doesn’t count. From the meridian-condensing stage to the Saintly Heaven stage, there are nine major realms in total. A Saintly Heaven realm figure is almost godlike. Can such a person really be killed?” Qin Muyu asked in astonishment.
In Qingzhou, a warrior at the Myriad Methods realm was already considered a strong fighter. The Return-to-Origin realm was reserved for the top-tier powers within the major forces. As for the void-soaring realm, it was said that the master of the Siyin Mountain was at that level, but no one had ever seen him in action, so it was uncertain.
Above the void-soaring realm were the self-forgetting realm, the star-plucking realm, and the Saintly Heaven realm. Characters beyond the void-soaring level were already legendary figures in the stories that Qin Muyu and Li Wenqing had heard. The idea that someone at the very peak of these legendary realms could be killed was simply mind-boggling.
Liang Sirui said, “It’s true that a Saintly Heaven realm figure is incredibly powerful and almost impossible to kill. But it’s said that Mu Beige was killed by someone from his own Mu family!”
The Mu family?
Wait a minute!
Li Wenqing exclaimed in surprise, “Didn’t you say he was from the Mu family? Did the Mu family kill one of their own top-tier strong figures?”
That didn’t make sense!
Liang Sirui replied helplessly, “These are secrets that I’ve only heard in bits and pieces from my elders. My Liang family doesn’t have the qualifications to know the full details. It’s all just hearsay.”
“But one thing is certain: this Forbidden Realm was condensed by Mu Beige before he died.”
Seeing Liang Sirui’s certainty, Qin Muyu asked curiously, “How can you be so sure?”
