“Don’t worry!” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “If I were in trouble, would I be able to sit here so peacefully, basking in the sun?”
“If there really was something wrong, I would have told you all already. I would have prepared to run away and made sure the people of the Ye Mansion were evacuated!”
Xiao Yuan nodded. Since Ye Wushuang seemed to have everything under control, they didn’t feel it was appropriate to say more.
As the sun climbed high into the sky, Qing Chengtian, Xiao Yuan, and Wang Xueqi each went about their own business. In a corner of the courtyard, Ye Wushuang lay back with his eyes half-closed, letting out a helpless sigh in his heart. He truly knew what was going on.
In his previous life, as the supreme deity among the Ten Deities of the Canghuang Heavenly Realm, he had been envied and hated by the other nine deities. Just then, the mysterious artifact known as the Nine-Heavens Spirit-Taming Pagoda had inexplicably appeared within the Canghuang Heavenly Realm. Seizing this opportunity, the nine deities joined forces and, while he was weakened from obtaining the Nine-Heavens Spirit-Taming Pagoda, they severely injured him and sealed his true self within the perilous Burial God Mountain of the Canghuang Heavenly Realm.
Though the pagoda was sealed, he had obtained an extremely rare and ancient technique from it, the Nine-Transmutations Immortal Art. Using this technique, he had divided his soul into nine parts, each reincarnated as a separate entity.
Now, within the Burial God Mountain, only his deity’s physical body remained sealed. He was currently living with a new identity. The soul, being the essence of the deity’s legacy, was the core. However, without the deity’s physical body, no matter how strong the soul’s reincarnation was, whether as a human or a beast, it could not withstand the power of the deity’s soul and would eventually collapse.
Thus, over the course of a million years, his nine souls, after reincarnating, had no choice but to fall into a deep sleep, sealing themselves away. It was only when the nine souls finally escaped their困境, and his soul was truly freed by the Nine-Heavens Spirit-Taming Pagoda, that he became the Ye Wushuang of today.
Now, he had already merged with the ninth soul. But that was precisely where the problem lay. Having reached the fourth level of the Yuanfu Realm, he had been merged with the ninth soul for some time. Now, the ninth soul began to reject his physical body.
Ye Wushuang understood why. After practicing the Nine-Transmutations Immortal Art, his soul was divided into nine parts. He was now in the process of forming a new physical body, using his soul as the foundation to merge all nine souls into one and cultivate into a deity once again.
However, at present, with the ninth soul returning and merging with his physical body, it was only the ninth part of his complete deity soul. He needed to merge with a new soul. Otherwise, the ninth soul, being a split part of the complete deity soul and not yet whole, coupled with his insufficiently powerful physical body, would lead to its own destruction.
In other words, he needed to find the eighth soul! He was well aware of the experiences of the nine souls, but the eighth soul was currently in the Tianxuan Continent. If he wanted to find the eighth soul, it would take some time. Until then, he could only rapidly enhance his strength so that his physical body could withstand the dominance of the ninth soul.
“Still need to advance in cultivation…” Ye Wushuang murmured.
“You’ve already reached the fourth level of the Yuanfu Realm at an extremely fast pace, and you’re still not satisfied?” Suddenly, a light and questioning voice rang out.
“It’s you…” Ye Wushuang opened his eyes and looked at the graceful Chu Qingcheng standing in front of him.
“Do you seem reluctant to see me?” Chu Qingcheng couldn’t help but ask.
“Is there?” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Beautiful things always make people intoxicated and bring a pleasant mood. Why wouldn’t I want to see you?”
Chu Qingcheng was slightly stunned, and then seemed to understand the meaning behind Ye Wushuang’s words, her face turning a little red.
“Oh, right. I originally planned to spar with you on spiritual arrays, but it seems a bit difficult now.” Chu Qingcheng’s tone was tinged with concern as she asked, “Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I won’t die just yet.”
What kind of answer was that? So perfunctory! Chu Qingcheng felt a bit displeased inside.
“Did you come to see me for something?”
“Can’t I just come to see you without any reason?” Chu Qingcheng retorted.
Seeing Ye Wushuang at a loss for words, Chu Qingcheng continued, “Since you’ve had this accident, just stay and recuperate within the academy. For so many years, no one has dared to attack a disciple of the Heavenly Court within the academy. Unless something serious happens, don’t leave the academy and go back to the Ye Mansion.”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but smile and say, “Are you saying people from the Chu Clan are going to attack me? It would be difficult to do so without a Tiangang Realm cultivator.”
Seeing that Ye Wushuang didn’t take it seriously at all, Chu Qingcheng frowned and said, “I’m not joking with you. It might not just be the Chu Clan.”
