Chapter 1235: Return

While the entire sect was resting and Xu Fan was leisurely strolling with his wife, a spatial storm suddenly tore through the Chaotic Mist Area near the Hidden Spirit Sect.

Another powerful strike followed, further expanding the spatial passage.

Great Saints from the major races, along with their clan elites, rushed to the shattered land.

“Lord Grape, head straight to the gathering point agreed upon with the Yuan Lord,” Xu Fan said calmly.

Just then, a massive dragon claw descended upon Hidden Spirit Island, attempting to block its escape.

The Dragon Lord’s colossal figure, as vast as the Immortal Realm, loomed above the Hidden Spirit Sect, his eyes gleaming with malice as he stared at Hidden Spirit Island.

But in an instant, a teleportation formation, fueled by the Power of Holy Light, shattered the Dragon Lord’s spatial seal and whisked the Hidden Spirit Sect away.

“You old mud eel, you’re still too green to mess with our sect,” Xu Fan’s voice echoed through the Chaotic Mist Area.

The Great Saints from the major races sneered at the Dragon Lord, taunting, “Don’t hold a grudge. It was just one of your Ancestral Dragons we took down.”

“Yeah, come on, be a little more magnanimous, Dragon Lord.”

“Hmph!” The Dragon Lord snorted and flew to the front of the group.

At the gathering point previously agreed upon by the Yuan Lord, a massive teleportation formation materialized, powered by the Power of Holy Light. Hidden Spirit Island emerged from it.

“Senior Huangshan, the major races from the Three Thousand Realms have arrived,” Xu Fan sent a message.

“The Yuan Lord is aware. Other major forces of the human race are also on their way,” Huangshan replied.

There had been an agreement: once the major races from the Three Thousand Realms arrived, the human race would gather first to prevent the other races from getting greedy and attempting anything rash.

“For now, let’s stay here. The Yuan Lord will handle things,” Huangshan said.

“I appreciate the Yuan Lord’s efforts.”

Xu Fan nodded as their conversation ended.

Meanwhile, Qian Bing, who had been relaxing in his cave, suddenly sensed that the sect had relocated.

Alarmed, he quickly checked the sect’s forum for updates.

Sure enough, it stated that due to the arrival of other races from the Three Thousand Realms in the shattered land, the Hidden Spirit Sect had teleported to the gathering point of several human forces.

“Lord Grape, Lord Grape! Have my sons returned yet?” Qian Bing asked urgently.

“They are currently being positioned and should return within three days,” Lord Grape’s voice replied.

“What if they don’t come back?” Qian Bing asked, on the verge of tears.

“Then you can always buy some more to be your sons,” Lord Grape replied, his tone dryly humorous.

A teleportation formation appeared in Qian Bing’s eastern residence, and a group of puppets stepped out.

Seeing his beloved sons return safely, Qian Bing was overcome with joy.

“Dad, you should never doubt Lord Grape’s calculations again.”

“Lord Grape would never abandon any member or asset of the sect,” the eldest puppet son said solemnly to Qian Bing.

"I get it! It’s really great that you all made it back safely!"

Just as the father and son were having their moment, a booming voice echoed through the Chaotic Mist Area.

"You old fools! The human race got here on our own strength and with the help of the Lord of the Demon Domain."

"You think you can just team up and take half of what’s ours?"

"Looks like you’ve been eating too much crap and it’s messed with your heads, huh?"

"If you can fight, then bring it on! If not, get the hell out!"

The whole space started shaking as the Yuan Lord stood his ground against the leaders of multiple races.

The Great Saints from the major human forces also jumped into the fight.

Xu Fan wanted to get in on the action, but as soon as he stood up, he got a message from Huangshan.

"We’ve got enough people; don’t stir up more trouble."

Seeing that the Great Saints on both sides weren’t going all out, Xu Fan knew the fight wouldn’t last long.

Sure enough, it wasn’t long before both sides called it quits.

After that, the Yuan Lord started negotiating with the race leaders and managed to secure two-tenths of the remaining scraps for the human race.

Once the deal was done, the Yuan Lord led the major human forces to their allocated area.

"The Yuan Lord’s really something; even from these scraps, we got two-tenths," Xu Fan said, looking at the Yuan Lord in the Human Palace.

"Two-tenths isn’t much, but if we hadn’t agreed, they wouldn’t have even let us have the scraps, and none of us would’ve had it easy," the Yuan Lord said, waving his hand grandly.

"Yuan Lord, I think it’d be better to head to the next shattered world instead," the leader of the Tianding Merchant Association stood up and said.

"Too late; I got word from the Lord of the Demon Domain that the place is already taken over by a bunch of gods and demons."

"The two Great God or Demon Empires are at war, forcing a lot of gods and demons to flee with their families to other Chaotic Mist Areas," the Yuan Lord said, his tone tinged with regret.

The Great Saints from the other major forces also looked regretful when they heard this.

"If that shattered world were still around, I could’ve grabbed those scraps."

"This info came at a high cost from the Lord of the Demon Domain, so keep it under wraps."

"Let the other races come back empty-handed," the Yuan Lord thought, chuckling to himself.

"Alright, you all can split what’s left."

"Once we’re done here, we’ll head back to the Three Thousand Realms," the Yuan Lord said.

A year later, after the two-tenths of scraps were cleaned up, the Yuan Lord didn’t bother saying goodbye to the other races and took the human race straight to the Heavenly Road, where someone was still waiting for them.

Outside the Heavenly Road, a chaotic formation made of holy light was slowly forming.

A huge door leading to the Heavenly Road appeared.

As everyone stepped through, they found themselves in a grand chaotic palace.

At the main seat was the grand and indescribable female chaotic god or demon, with the Lord of the Demon Domain sitting beside her, looking at the human race with a distant gaze.

"You’re back so soon; what a shame."

"I told you that you’d be allowed to leave the demons when you left."

Then everyone felt the world shift, and when they came to, they were back at the spot where they’d entered the Heavenly Road.

"Is this the power of a chaotic saint-level god or demon? Absolutely terrifying," some Great Saints couldn’t help but say.

"The human race still has a long way to go; if we don’t become chaotic saints, we’re just ants in this vast chaos," the Yuan Lord’s voice echoed in everyone’s ears.

"This time, you all got a lot; if you get the chance, give other forces a shot at growing."

"When I take that step, the human race will eventually unite the Three Thousand Realms."

"Understood, the Yuan Lord cares for the human race. We’ll give up some resources for other forces to grow when we get back," the Great Saints from the major forces said.

In the Three Thousand Realms, outside the Yuanshi Sect, a massive spatial fluctuation appeared, and Hidden Spirit Island showed up.

"Master, where to next?" Grape asked.

"Back to the Wood Origin Immortal Realm to make use of the resources we’ve got," Xu Fan said without hesitation.

With his current strength, no one in the Three Thousand Realms should be able to mess with his laid-back life.

"Understood, Master."

Outside the Wood Origin Immortal Realm, a huge teleportation portal made of holy light appeared.
