These people helped me a lot when I had some financial crisis, I was doing this novel to share and thank my readers for the continued support, but I didn''t think I`ll earn something out of it. I don''t want to form a contract to provide you guys with all of my novel''s free chapter instead of a paid one. The support that you`ve given me, you readers, donators, commentators, reviewers. and review defenders are so much appreciated. Reviewers though ( Only the great reviews, not attacks, the ones that provided great aid in helping me improve my novel, not the ones that kept belittling me and striking at me without a stop, wanting me to improve but not finishing the story.) At some points, I wanted to stop, but seeing your comments, your laugh at my chapters, your inspirational "Hey, it is she, not a he" comments that made me see my faults and changed it, the ones providing me with ideas. I, the Author of this novel sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart. Let us finish this. "I`ll continue the novel, but posts the edited version somewhere else, don''t ask where, as it is bad, hahaha, but I`ll definitely post it on my patreon afterward." And, I want to sell it as a book first too, and if It was sold well, I`ll then post it to that other website. Thank you for the continued support everyone, I hope you all a great year, and more years to come! Another Sincere thanks from the Author of this Novel. OmnipotentDad. BTw, I`m a real Father :D Chapter 1 In a Different World Somewhere in a Public toilet in China, there is a shadow lurking behind it, murmuring to himself. "Finally, after saving all my money and spending it on finding my parents who abandoned me since birth, I finally received some useful information on them." The Shadow walked out of his lurking as he looked at the sky with a fiery steel will as he looked at the Picture from the files that were given to him by the informant and spoke. "Hmmp! thinking of abandoning me just so they can enjoy their time together, what kind of parents are they, now that they are already wealthy they couldn''t even remember how they had a child before!" He flipped through to another picture as he frowned and continued: "What''s worst is that... they gave birth to two daughters, giving them all they wanted while I`m here stuck trying to work my way to survival, damn it!" Zhong Zhihao is an orphan that was left by their parents since birth due to insufficient living expenses, or in short, Poverty. But now when his Parents became rich, he created his own image of them, that they had forgotten about him. Tears flowed from his eyes down to his cheeks as he shuddered with sadness and depression. "Shouldn''t they at least try to remember that they had a child before? Me? This is really saddening... how did my life become like this..." His eyes became fierce as he spoke: "It''s because of them!" After spending almost all the money he earned every day for 20 years as a laborer, he finally got some information about his parents. I think you are wondering why this guy, our MC is so determined in knowing his parents and meeting them again. He received the news that his Family is living well in one of their top quality resorts in the Philippines, he immediately prepared to go there by a one-way Airplane ticket. He wanted to ask them why did they leave him alone, why didn''t they search for him, did they even remember him? Due to Lack of nutrition, his body now is fully developed with almost no fat in it, only pure muscles, luckily, With his physique that developed for 20 years in constructions. he might manage his way to the Airport before he passed out. The distance to the Airport in his current location is 21 km which would exhaust almost 99.99% of human beings that will have a try walking that way without having eaten anything the day before. Zhihao readied himself and prepared all the things (which the only thing he has is two pieces of shirts, two underwear, and a single pants) he departed from the Men''s public toilet. and headed in the direction of the Airport. Four hours had passed. Zhihao had walked through 17 km by now, he can already see the City Airport still some few miles away. Zhihao smiled as he increased his phase walking in the bridge, then due to his exhaustion, He suddenly saw two kids playing in front of him, merely by an inch the kids didn''t notice him and kept playing tag, with the exhausted body and mind, Zhihao tried to dodge, but sadly he was too late! he was too weak to move accurately and stumbled on the Bridge''s gutter, Having an exhausted body, Unable to regain his balance, he was like a Drunk Man swayingly walking towards the edge of the bridge. He tried to get his hands on the guardrail, successfully, Zhihao breathed a sigh of relief, but then a sudden wind blew from his back, it felt like someone is pushing him from behind, he fell down the bridge straight to the river. Zhihao only had one question in mind now ''WHY? WHY!? WHYYY!?!?!?!'' A very rapid water current received Zhihao''s fall, with his weak state, even with his built up physique he wouldn''t be able to handle something this extreme, Zhihao slammed to a lot of sharp rocks beneath the river bed as the current drove him further away, making his skin scratched further as he continuously hit the sharp ends. Zhihao lost his will to live, knowing that he is currently facing death, but instead of fear, regret, desperation, or sadness, instead, he smiled as he accepted reality, thinking back to the hardship he had to suffer through all the times. ''So this is how I`ll die, why couldn''t I have died in the first place, that would be easier, such a stupid way to die.'' Zhihao closed his eyes, gritting his teeth as he felt sharp pains striking him hard and accepted the fact that he is going to die, his consciousness faded out of his body, but then he felt a very warm hand caught him from his death, relieving him from any of the pain that he had felt. After some time, Zhihao frowned as he realized that he isn''t feeling the pain he had received earlier, he felt that there are no more pain coming from the wounds he received from the River''s sharp rocks in his body, it felt extremely good, but there is this prickling sting coming from his stomach. "Urggg!" Zhihao grunted from that prickling pain that came from his stomach. Zhihao then opened his eyes as he saw a very exquisite ceiling lying on a very soft floor, but he then realized something as he thought. ''Ah? soft? floor? no, this is definitely not a floor!'' Zhihao looked around as he saw a very old looking design of the house, one that came from the old era, his thoughts continued to wonder about. ''This is a bed, and that''s not a ceiling it the top of the bed! how extravagant!'' Zhihao blinked a lot of times but when he remembered how he died he thought that this must be heaven, Zhihao then sat up. "Hu! So I guess I''m still a good guy, at least I haven''t harmed anyone while living my life behind the men''s public toilet" While thinking like that, he felt that it''s quite strange as how he felt something is very strange in his current state. Suddenly, while he is pondering a voice came from outside of the room. "Young Master Zhihao, the morning bath has been prepared" The voice came from his personal servant girl calling out to him. the girl''s name is Yi Yan. Zhong Zhihao became shocked as he thought. ''Young Master? when did I became a young master, did my parents found me floating in the river and saved me? Woah! URG!'' A sharp pain came from the back of his head as all the memories of the ''previous'' Zhihao came into his mind. Zhihao opened his eyes as he looked around and looked at his body. His thoughts ran wild as he suddenly thought of a single thing to explain everything. ''IM IN A DIFFERENT WORLD?!'' Chapter 2 I`m rich? and Ism Eeeeenngg... Zhihao was shocked as he thought inside his head. ''Wow! wow! wow! wow! so there really is a rebirth after death, I should''ve believed it in my previous world.'' he was like a newborn baby with only the past memories from his previous world. luckily the previous owner of his body handed him the memories of this world although its all of the innocent one''s memory, it is very useful to the current him. but as soon as he reviewed this memory he was shocked! ''CULTIVATION! STRENGTH! the world where power is the rule and authority is second!'' while he was shocked by this, a voice awakened his daze. "Young master?" A voice came outside, as it called Zhihao, It was Yi Yan waiting for him to answer but due to waiting after a long while, she called out again. Zhihao finally coming back to reality spoke: "AH! yes, Yi Yan come in." as soon as he finished those words, Yi Yan came in. Yi Yan: "Young master, the bath is ready its already noon and your fiance will be arriving in about 2 hours, so we should prepare you for welcoming here" Zhihao became shocked yet again (He is dumb seriously) he searched through the memories of the previous owner and found out that not only is he reborn, he also has a great family, a loving parent, and also a gorgeous fiance. Zhihao: "Ahh!, Yes yes, let''s prepare, let''s go, uhh, let''s... just bring me to the bathroom." Yi Yan: ''Young master is a bit out, is it because of finally meeting his fiance?'' then immediately answered: "Yes young master" Zhihao walked out of the bed and went together with Yi Yan to the hall, he was pondering what kind of manner does he need to greet the elders, he can check all the previous activity of the previous owner but, as an uneducated person in his past life, he didn''t know how to synchronize his manners to the previous body''s owner. as soon as he came to the bath Zhihao: "WHAAA! What are you doing!?, I know I''m rich now but why are you behaving like a cougar ready to devour me! stop undressing me!" Yi Yan became shocked, Yi Yan thought: ''wasn''t this always the way I helped young master to take a bath, why is he being silly now?'' Then she replied: "Young master, isn''t this how I usually help you when you are taking bath?" Zhihao became shocked again as he checked the previous owner''s memory, ''YES! it was always like that, now that he realized it, he became very nervous. he was wondering if he''ll be caught just by the time he got reincarnated'' Zhihao: "ahh yeah. I''m just joking with you because it might be the last time you`ll help me. when I get married I think it will be my wife helping me next time. hee hee, he?" Yi Yan: "Young master, as you already know, personal maids are already the personal belongings of their masters. why would I leave you and let your wife do my own duties, and as you already know, your fiancee is of noble birth and would likely be your wife and not your maid." after speaking up to this point, Yi Yan continued helping Zhihao up. Zhihao spoke: "Ahh.. yes yes, ok I get it now, uhmn, thank you Yi Yan, but I can take it from here now, I think today I would like to bath alone." Yi yan pondered for a bit before saying "Yes young master" after replying, she immediately went out. Zhihao thought immediately: ''Ahhh, it''s hard to act as someone that I don''t even know'' Zhihao continued to the tub and sunk himself to think about everything, as he was dazed he kept thinking that ''this life isn''t that bad, no, its too great, a great reversal for my life, in the past I have a parent, but didn''t care about me and abandoned me, but now, I got a family, a loving one at that, and rich from the start of my life, and now I even got a fiance, this life, I would treasure it, as long as I live and my memories intact. after half an hour he left the tub and prepared to get out, but as soon as he touched the ground, the door opened and Yi Yan was there staring at him, "Young master, here is the towel to get you dry, let me help you, and here is your towel to wrap your body with." Zhihao was shocked as he contained the shock and check the previous owner''s memory, and yes, it''s always been like this. Zhihao immediately calmed himself as he replied: "yes, continue" Yi Yan answered: "Yes, Young master" as she helped Zhihao dry up and get dressed. after a few minutes went by, Zhihao was well dressed and ready to go. Zhihao walked forward then went to the grand hall to meet his father Zhong Ru Feng, as he glanced at his newly found father he almost went to tears, but he kept himself from tearing up. Entering the great hall Zhihao walked closer to his father as he Greeted: "This son, Zhihao greets father." Ru Feng smiled as he saw how prepared his son is to welcome his fiance, Ru Feng made a happy expression and waved at Zhihao to come closer. Zhihao immediately went forward and sat next to his father. Ru Feng: "how''s your cultivation going Hao''er?" (Removing Zhi, and just calling Hao, then adding ''ER'' at the end is a way to show affection) Zhihao pondered for a while checking his memories (Previous one''s) and said: "Father I have only reached the Final Foundation 3rd stage and would like to try to break through to Foundation Establishment in a while." Ru Feng smiled slightly as he heard his genius son said it, and he lightly spoke: "That''s great to hear, ahh now I feel really relaxed as to leave the family matters in you and your fiance''s hands." when he finished saying his words, an attendant outside the door spoke: "Patriarch, the honored guests have arrived." Ru Feng smiled as he became overly excited then laughed as he ordered: "Hahahaha! let them in, let them in. don''t let them wait too much outside." when he finished saying his words, an attendant outside the door spoke: "Patriarch, the honored guests have arrived." Ru Feng smiled then laughed: "Hahahaha! let them in, let them in." Chapter 3 Ling Ningser Right after Ru Feng finished speaking, a thunderous voice was heard outside the grand hall, "HAHAHAHAHAHA! Old bones how long will we keep waiting outside, this old buddy of yours is still standing here." The Ling clan is the great clan of the White sky county, a few hundred miles away from Black wind county where the Zhong Family is established. Zhong Ru Feng and Ling Wentian were old classmates and at the same time both fell in love with the woman of Ruo clan, Zhong Ru Feng married Ruo Mei, while Ling Wentian married Ruo Lin. Ru Feng spoke while smiling: "Old dog, you should behave yourself in the presence of our younger generation, at least show some slight dignity as the patriarch of the Ling clan." After speaking Ru Feng immediately stood up as he walked forward to Ling Wentian. Ling Wentian: "ahahaha what''s there to hide in front of my future son-in-law, I don''t need to be cautious around him! where is he?, I want to meet him, where is my genius son-in-law" Zhihao immediately knew that this guy is his future father-in-law as if it is being written all over the conversation already then he spoke. "Zhihao greets Patriarch Ling" Ling Wentian immediately smiled as he replied: "hahaha, just call me father from now on as it will be the new title that will be born because of you! hahaha!" Ru Feng immediate interrupted: "Hmpp! Zhihao call him father-in-law, Immediately after arriving you are already trying to steal my son away from me. you know the word shameless all too well old dog. now, where is my daughter-in-law." as soon as Ru Feng Finished speaking, an elegant silhouette entered the room, Zhihao became dazed, as this beautiful woman with blue hair, Jade white like skin and mesmerizing eyes appeared in front of him. while having the grace of a well-mannered princess and as a bonus, also has a pretty good figure. This woman would definitely be the fiance that he is engaged to. when Ning''er entered, she stole a glance at Zhihao, then smiled a little, then looked at Ru Feng then said. "Ning''er greets Zhong Patriarch." the greetings of this woman made Zhihao very excited as he can very well tell that this woman is very graceful, and is also providing grace even with her greeting. well, he fell in love at first sight. Ru Feng smiled as he spoke: "Well well, a good daughter indeed, Ning''er you should call me father from now on, for that''s the new title you`ll be giving me when you get married to Hao''er." Wentian frown his brows as he spoke: "old bones, seems like you are stealing my daughter from the start, as shameless as usual no? how dare you utter words like that in front of me!? see if I don''t fight it out with you today! HMMP!" Ru Feng also frowned his brows as he replied: "You started it old dog! how come you can be shameless and I not? you should go learn back from how an 8 yr old boy should show his manners." Wentian: "HAHAHA. well didn''t realize that you just copied me" Pausing for a bit, Wentian looked at Zhihao as he continued. "Zhihao this child is gonna be your wife, you should hurry up and give me a grandson or two, hahahahaha!" When Ning''er heard it she immediately pinched her father''s side, causing a little pain as she quietly said. "father, you should behave properly in front of others. especially my father-in-law." Wentian smiled as he laughed awkwardly then spoke: "hahaha, I''m sorry daughter, I''m so sorry but can you please let go of my side, it hurts you know, you are already at the Foundation Establishment realm, and it got even more power to it." Ru Feng laughed heartily seeing the sight in front of him as he spoke: "HAHAHAHA, well said Ning''er that''s a very good example, teach that old guy a lesson!" Right after that, two beautiful figures entered the grand hall with their great figure swaying left and right, both Ru Feng and Wentian became silent and sweat covered their backs rapidly, as one of the two figures spoke softly. Ruo Mei frowned and looked at Ru Feng then spoke: "Dear husband, I think you are having too much fun, we can discuss this tonight after we settle this afternoon meeting." After saying these she smiled so softly that any man would fall for her instantly if it was their first time meeting Ruo Mei. Ruo Lin smiled like an angel as she said: "Dear husband, the same goes for you." Both figures entered and said something that any men would fell in love with, but on the other hand, Ru Feng and Wentian felt afraid while they are sitting silently and nodded towards their wife''s word. they felt a slight fluctuation of Qi aimed at them together at the same time. right now both Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin were at the 8th stage of Transcendent Mortal realm while Ru Feng is in the 5th stage of Earth transformation realm and Wentian is at the 4th stage of Earth transformation realm. but still, what kind of man would hit their woman? only a beast would do. So whenever their wife gets angry, they would sweat a lot out of fear as they would be a punching bag for a whole night!. Then Ruo Mei spoke to Zhihao: "Hao''er bring Ning''er to a stroll in the town. we adults would like to discuss some matters ourselves." Ruo Mei handed down an Interspatial ring to Zhihao so that if they ever had anything they wished to buy there would be no need to worry for lacking any funds, and what Ruo Mei gave Zhihao was his allowance which she had saved for Zhihao to use in the future, and she guessed that that future is today. After receiving the ring, Zhihao replied: "Yes mother. this child of yours shall go now" Ning''er also bid her Mother: "Mother, we''ll be going now." Both Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin nodded then smiled at the both of them as they waved them goodbye. Chapter 4 *Beep Beep* As Zhihao accepted the Interspatial ring there was a sound that came inside his head. then a voice spoke *Ding!* =Host has acquired a rare Treasure ''Gold Interspatial Ring'' Zhihao became flustered and thought of something. ''I shouldn''t scream! I shouldn''t scream! I shouldn''t scream!'' After a while, Zhihao finally calmed down as he replied: "thank you mother, I should be going now, Father, father-in-law, and mother-in-law I`ll be going." Wentian and Ru Feng felt a sharp gaze directed to them telling them to just nod and shut the fudges up! the both of them could only sigh as they spoke: "yes go on, go and take care of Little Ning/Ning''er while you both out" Ruo Lin: "Ning''er don''t cause trouble for your husband to be, behave like a well-mannered woman." Ning''er''s mother followed up. Ning''er sighed as she nodded and answered: "Yes Mother," Ning''er stood beside Zhihao as they both walked out of the grand hall. Zhihao kept a gentlemanly expression as he goes out with a little-dazed expression. Ning''er took a peak and giggled. Waking Zhihao from his dazed state, Zhihao gazed at Ning''er and thought: ''what a beautiful woman, though my current appearance is that of a drop-dead handsome guy, or what I can say as a ''boy toy'' that can make a lot of women fall for me'' Then suddenly something strange happened as Zhihao looked at Ning''er. Ning''er relaxed her expression from a noble lady into a carefree expression and spoke: "Hey! you! stop staring at this noble lady, haven''t seen one before?" But Zhihao kept staring at her in a daze, but that was not because he was astounded by Ning''er''s beauty, but instead was because of what he is seeing in front of his eyes. *Ding!* =Showing host''s current status.

Zhihao became excited as he thought inside his head: ''isn''t this some sort of cheat that can help me become stronger? that''s so great! strength? wealth? power? hahaha, I Zhihao! will take everything!'' As Zhihao sunk into his own dreams and fantasy, a call woke him up from his daze. it was Ning''er''s voice. Ning''er: "HEY!! IM CALLING YOU! I know I`m beautiful and you don''t need to say anything about it, but it''s creepy when you look at me for more than 10mins without speaking." Zhihao laughed and shook his head, isn''t this a completely different turn? A 180-degree turn from her previous personality? then Zhihao replied. "Ahh I was just too shock due to the sudden changes in your personality, don''t worry." Pausing for a bit, Zhihao then continued. "Should I tour you around town or head back?" Ning''er was bewildered with his explanation so she just casually spoke: "just tour me around town, if we go back now, my mom will scold me a lot." she giggled due to Zhihao, He wasn''t bothered that much with her showing her true personality. Zhihao nodded as he answered: "Alright, let''s go." As the duo kept walking in the town, they heard some people talking. "Hey, there is an auction happening today in the Heavenly Treasure pavilion, and there is a cultivation pill that will help anyone from Foundation Establishment to break into an elementary realm lower realm, that''s just great but I think it will be too expensive for us normal people." Another one replied: "Of course, if it isn''t expensive why would they sell it in an auction, and it is the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion at that!" When Ning''er heard that, she bowed gracefully as she spoke: "Husband, my dear future half, I`ll be counting on you for this one." she giggled as she winked at Zhihao, the both of them walked side by side afterward. Zhihao scratched his head from what Ning''er had said. Zhihao sighed as he thought inside his head. ''Damn this wife father found for me is really a handful and extremely exhausting too, well at least there won''t be any pretense at all if she''ll show me what her true personality is like. at least I got a wife with multiple personalities'' Zhihao sighed and walked together with Ning''er going to the direction of Heavenly Treasured Pavilion. As soon as they entered he heard the Heavenly Treasured Pavilion, a notification popped up in his head. *Ding!* =Host has entered an area with a defensive formation. this formation is weak and is only meant to deal with Nascent sprite realm and below.'' Zhihao pondered and then the thought of ''so it is an anti-theft formation, well it is good if it''s like this.'' appeared in his head and nodded. Then a voice entered their ears as they went further in. The Clerk smiled as she spoke: "Dear customers, which room would you like to be into? we got the public stand for the auction which costs 10 silvers, and a private lounge that costs 5 gold. we only have 10 spaces left for the private lounge, so Young Master which room would you like to have entry to?" Zhihao searched through his memory, he then smiled as he got an idea. he found out that there are 5 spaces where VIP''s can enter at a costly price. Zhihao smiled at the clerk as he spoke: "I`d like the VIP Lounge with my wife, it would be too bothersome for people to notice my beautiful while we''re in the auction." Zhihao smiled as he handed 50 gold coins to the clerk, the clerk was dumbfounded, such a young youth can afford the VIP Lounge and whats more shocking, they actually knew there was one! the clerk gave a seductive smile as she received the money from Zhihao, not forgetting to touch his hands a little, knowing that she can live the rest of her life in wealth if she could even be the mistress the clerk didn''t hesitate to approach in a professionally seductive manner. Ning''er caught sight of it and checked Zhihao''s reaction, but Zhihao didn''t have any reaction nor felt anything. and so Ning''er just ignored it and let it pass by, thinking ''at least you are loyal''. Suddenly the both of them received a sound transmission, it was from both of their Mothers. Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin spoke to Zhihao and Ning''er separately: "We''ve decided that the wedding would be on the day after tomorrow, so be prepared, and as such, enjoy yourselves for today, no need to come back until late night, just don''t get too much trouble with strangers." Ning''er & Zhihao both replied to each of their Mother: "Yes mother/Mom" After finishing the conversation with their Mothers, Zhihao told the Clerk to bring them to the room. But suddenly a group of people came in as the one leading the group spoke to the Clerk. "I`d like to book all the VIP Lounge in your pavilion for this auction, take money" Just after speaking, the man threw a bag full of golds like garbage to the clerk and suddenly walked forward. He then stopped as he looked at the Ning''er, he was bewildered and shocked, this woman is definitely someone that can topple cities and start a war for countries just to get her. He then spoke: "Hey beautiful, you should come with me and leave that boy toy alone, this man can give you wealth and cultivation resources, until we both aged old and die. i`ll even take your boy toy as my servant if you like, this Young Master Shen Rong of the great Shen family in Nether Void County can take care of that, come with me to the VIP lounge. HAHAHAHAHAHA" Ning''er frowned and spoke: "Young master Shen, I think you misunderstood something here, and you cant really buy all the VIP lounges since we''ve already paid for one. now if you`d please my husband and I need to go to our room, Miss, lead us please." The Clerk suddenly thought that getting between them is gonna be bad, so she just silently stood there, nervously seeing things, if she offended one of them, her fate would definitely be one of the ruined. so she decided to speak. "Young masters, Young miss, I would like to go but I''m too afraid of offending either one of you three, please, I beg for mercy, I need to call our manager to discuss this with you guys" The Clerk immediately returned the bag of golds to Shen Rong as she walked to the back of the room. Ning''er frowned again as she went and said: "Young Master Shen, I am the Young Miss of the Ling Clan from White Sky County, and this is my husband Young Master Zhong from this Black wind county." Shen Rong gave a hump, and said: "Oh so its both the Young Miss and Young Master of two great Clans, hahaha, well I`ll leave the both of you guys alone, but I`ll surely visit you both sooner or later... hahaha" Shen Rong gave a snort and walked towards the VIP lounge not waiting for the clerk to return, When the Clerk finally returned, she was together with the manager. the manager was a fat old man in his late 50''s, he walked towards them and talked to them that he would do everything to fix the situation as he led the way to the VIP lounge. Chapter 5 Auction starts! By the time both Zhihao and Ning''er entered the screen covered room the sound of the auctioneer was heard as an amiable voice was heard coming from him, the old man looked like someone in his late 60''s, The old man entered the stage as he spoke: "I know that everyone''s been waiting for hours already, now then, without further delays, we will now start the auction!" The old man is the Auctioneer of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, his name is Lu Dong, but everyone calls him Auctioneer Lu. Auctioneer Lu then continued. Auctioneer Lu: "The first item would be from a guest from another county, its a very good item, I would''ve preferred it to be placed last, but sadly the guest said it should be auctioned first, the first item is this pill bottle with Qi Cultivation pill, as everyone had heard, this pill can already be called a treasure in this small county of ours, this bottle has 8pieces of pill left, as such the first bidding price would be 10gold with 1gold per increment.now let us begin" The people couldn''t afford it and looked at the private lounges, and with a boom, the room was suddenly filled with shout. Room # 1: 15gold! Room # 2: 16gold! Room # 1: 20gold! Room # 6: 25gold! .... ..... When Ning''er heard it, she stared at Zhihao in a puppy eye mode and said: " Husband, when will you bid? your wife is in need of such a good pill, my father didn''t give me money because I am here with you, and as a husband, you have the responsibility of giving me living comfort! cultivation pills is a plus! so husband .. now why won''t you start bidding? .. bla bla bla bla... " in a short min Ning''er already spoke about two thousand words, Zhihao Laughed and started to bid, "100GOLD!" The people in both public and private lounge got scared witless, the bid was only at 52gold but it suddenly increased by 100%! this is definitely a young master that they can''t afford to offend, as such, they already gave up the thought of bidding, they cant bid anyways. Auctioneer Lu was shocked but immediately calmed down, his salary for a whole month was only worth 95 silvers, and this Young master splurged 100gold instantly, with that he sighed and spoke. "Anyone else? going once? going twice?" Waiting for a few seconds, Auctioneer Lu smiled as he continued. "DEAL!" When Shen Rong heard that, he got dazed he only got 200gold left as his monthly allowance, and he just received it, he knew if he fought a bidding war with that guy, it would definitely be a big mess, especially if he won, he gritted his teeth and readied to bid for the other things. When Ning''er received the pill she got so happy, since their county is far from region lords, and imperial cities they hardly get things like that, most of the times, they can only cultivate properly and absorb the spiritual energy from the earth. without any decent alchemist in their counties, they cant acquire cultivation pills, only great lands such as region lords, and imperial cities have at least a grade 9 alchemist and grade 9 weapon craftsman. Since Ning''er already received her items Ning''er decided to give Zhihao a reward, he patted his head and looked like a big sister as she spoke: "Thanks, husband." Then Zhihao glanced at her as he sighed and asked: "Why are you patting my head, you should kiss me as a wife, what? now that i gave you the thing you want I''m suddenly the little brother? hahaha" Ning''er laughed and scolded : "Although we''re both 14years old you should focus more in cultivation, oh and by the way stop with the thinking that you could get everything with money and charms, you need to put effort into everything even wooing me as your wife, we''ve just met today so I''m expecting some serious wooing especially since I would be your other half to be, now continue with the auction and think things through again. Hmmp!" she giggled again and sat next to Zhihao, now a little closer Zhihao sighed and made an expression of Serendipity, thinking that his past life, He couldn''t even afford a food three times a day, but now he is rich, and also had a wife, Zhihao thought ''I`m having a good wife, at least she''s not some gold digger'' then he said "yes my Lady" Zhihao felt that this woman is good wife material, at least to his knowledge, she didn''t hide anything and spoke everything aloud in front of him. Zhihao smiled as he said in his mind: ''i`ll treat her to the best of my ability'' they became closer like that of a friend. Auctioneer Lu spoked: "the second item is just a minor item that we found particularly loitering within the forest, we don''t have any uses for it as it has never been verified and with just a singleglance you can see that it is a garbage hahaha," A random guy suddenly said: "Auctioneer Lu why even bother to auction it then, hahaha its just gonna be a waste of our time with that hurry up" Auctioneer Lu sighed as he replied: "Alright, alright now this is the item we called it Rotten Wood with a tiny bit of Spiritual Energy inside it, though it''s really tiny we all thought that it can at least help a normal person to become a cultivator." Suddenly in Zhihao''s mind, there was a notification again. and it was different from before as it buzzed two times! one more than from before. *Ding! Ding!* =Host has discovered a Magic rated treasure ''Sealed State'' Dark willow sacred branch, once it has been unsealed the grade will increase into epic rarity. This type of treasure can help a cultivator to improve his cultivation 5 times with half the effort, this type of item can be concocted into a pill to improve its effect into 6 times the cultivation yield with half the effort. Chapter 6 WHAT THE H***! Quest notification : Acquire the treasure and unseal it. Being able to help the host is the number of duty of the system, thus informing and giving a quest to host is also to improve the host''s abilities. Quest Reward : -Quest Points 50 -Experience points 1,000 -Newbie Package (Randomly gives the item to host) Shop Function in the system will be opened. Quest Shop: Sell items in exchange for Quest points Quest Points will be opened once the shop is opened. Quest Failure : -Cultivation will return to the strength of a normal human. Zhihao for a long time became dazed, ''isn''t this like if I fail I would return back to normal? like how can I even cultivate? I don''t even know how to start! WHAT THE H***!!'' thinking like that Zhihao became flustered, but suddenly woken up by the noise coming from the Auctioneer. Auctioneer Lu: "Ok, we should start the auction with this, so give it your best to help your normal fellow become a cultivator, or you can use it yourselves, the starting price is 20silvers!" After a few seconds, Auctioneer Lu looked at the crowd anticipating even for a bit that someone would actually bid, but sadly no one offered, since its 20 silvers, its worth is more than some of them from their work for a month, almost everyone in the public lounge only has a basic salary of 8 to 10 silvers a month, why should they spend it to buy something that is weak and uncertain to help them or their friends to breakthrough and become a cultivator. a lot of people only came here to see the bidding wars of the rich people, just an entertainment for them once a month. Then someone from the Private lounge spoke in a joking manner as he said. Room # 1: "hahaha I`ll just bid I can help a concubine of mine to become a cultivator, maybe I can have a longer ''happy time'' hahahahah 25silvers!" Getting a good idea of what the guy in room #1 is having, they also smirked as someone replied. Room #8: "That fellow Daoist surely gave me a good idea, since it''s like this I`ll bid too 101 silvers! hahaha" Room # 1: "for a concubine, you`ll spend 101 silver? hahaha, I`ll pass with that then, you can have it fellow Daoist." Room # 2: "who said you are the only two that''s interested in getting a "happy time" I''m in too hahaha 105 silver" Then Zhihao became shocked, he thought inside ''these stupid people will waste a sacred treasure for their concubines! this is very upsetting!''then he suddenly bid: "10GOLD!" Everyone looked at the VIP Lounge like looking at a person that spends a lot of money to buy something like a trash. As everyone wondered, someone from the other VIP lounge also shouted: "15gold", it was Shen Rong, he snickered and glanced at the VIP lounge where Zhihao is staying, ''hahaha, its not like 15gold is a lot of money, well I still got a lot left after buying this, I`ll just throw it to a random maid in my clan, I guess its a kind of..'' while Shen Rong was still thinking another shout came, it was from Zhihao! "50GOLD!". The smile in Shen Rong face got smashed as he spoke: "Hahaha, right, right, it''s a young master that only knows how to spend a lot of gold, hahaha trying to show off in front of your lady is good once in a while, but at least pick the things properly, hahaha spending 50gold coins for a trash like that, I concede defeat in thi....." yet again before Shen Rong finished speaking, another voice came into his ears.. Zhihao: "Stupid brat, if you cant handle bidding more than 50gold shut up! stay in that corner and stop talking stupid kid. if you even have money to buy something like a trash, then what kind of Young Master are you. hahaha. " Zhihao smirked as he finished telling Shen Rong off. Shen Rong became enraged, but he has to concede defeat, it''s only a trash why bother spending some gold, ''maybe this young Master Zhong is trying to lure me into bidding a lot then concedes defeat. HMMP! I''m not stupid enough to fall for something as childish as that.'' Shen Rong thought. After a few more seconds, Auctioneer Lu finally regained his calm, this piece of stupid rotten branch got lucky to get a bid of 50gold, it''s really great when young masters are fighting to show off their wealth. Auctioneer Lu smiled as he thought. ''Just my lucky day.'' Auctioneer Lu finally breathe in, as he slowly said: "50GOLD! anyone else? going once! going twice!, DEAL!" Auctioneer Lu handed the item to be delivered and checked out by the customer in the VIP lounge as soon as possible. All types of commotion started in the public stand. "Its'' really great to be a Young Master, being able to show off, and waste money like its nothing" "You tell me, it''s not like all young Masters are like that, look at the other one, he''s been stoned, not all young Masters are like that." "It''s great to be a Young Master, a son of a great clan " "If I could marry my daughter to that kind of Young Master I''d be scot free of worry, I don''t even need to work just giving me 50gold coins would be set for me my whole life!" "Old man keep dreaming, with that kind of ugly daughter of yours, I`d wonder if she would even have a husband, hahaha" "Hahahaha" "Nyahaha" "BWAHAHAHA" All kinds of laughter were heard that time, as a way for themselves to pass time. When the item was brought to Zhihao, he checked it and received another notification. *Beep Beep Beep* three consecutive beeps was heard now, =Notification Quest Completion 50%! -to unseal this treasure, the host needs to give 10 drops of blood for it to regrow itself in complete form. After hearing this Zhihao directly drew a dagger in the interspatial ring and preparing to slit his finger. but there was a voice that called him this time, its Ling Ning''er: "what are you doing? are you thinking of committing suicide after I said you had to put an effort in wooing me? are you that so much in-love with me already? is that what they call love at first sight? is that why you spent so much just to buy a piece of junk? no, don''t do that,don''t you know that I''m only already half yours, to begin with? why commit suicide? and you don''t know this but the first time saw you, I was struck too but not too deeply!. but since I have a handsome future husband and a genius at that who would even reject, right? I just want to see you put some effort! some effort!" After hearing Ning''er dramatic flare, Zhihao laughed out loud as he spoke. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA, I seriously struck rich with this wife of mine, I''m not really thinking of suicide, its just I need to rejuvenate this fella, so I could use it to cultivate. and this, Missy, is not a junk, my dear wife, after I made a pill out of this we can cultivate 5 times or even 6 times faster with half the effort, so do you finally get it?" Hearing what Zhihao had said, Ning''er immediately blushed, she glaringly looked at Zhihao and spoke: "If that''s what you would do, you should''ve at least told me first! urg!! misleading people so much, you sure have a lot of free time! you should keep it for now maybe there are more things like that. such good fortune even my entire clan would definitely not be able to afford it, such a lucky fellow you are." Zhihao finally had his turn to laugh softly as he spoke: "Aren''t you my wife? I''m sharing this with you, so no need to feel envy towards it, whats mine is yours and whats yours is mine, no? it''s like my body is yours to use while your body is mine to use too" Ning''er finally can''t fight since she already blurted out everything before, she really cant fight now like before. Then Ning''er vowed and spoke to Zhihao: "I`ll get my revenge sooner or later" Then after speaking, Ning''er placed her hands on her undeveloped chest as she pouted, and looked at the other way. Chapter 7 Yin and Yang willow pill After the Dark willow sacred branch was bought from the auction, no more good items were revealed next, as such, both Zhihao and Ning''er finally left the Heavenly Treasured Pavilion together, After stepping outside of the hall, a man with a group of old people block his path of way.Yes, its the Poor young master that you guys know of, Shen Rong. With a harrumph Shen Rong spoke to them: "Young Master Zhong, it''s nice to see you again, its kind of like a fa..." yet again he was cut in the middle of his long speech by Zhihao. Zhihao smirked then said: "First of all Young Master Shen, if you blocked my way it is not a coincidence nor is it fate, and second, seeing your face again is not something I could say as "NICE"." Shen Rong got enraged, but he calmed down in an instant, as he spoke: "Young master Zhong, with that tone of yours, people would think that we have a blood enmity bet..." sadly the poor young master Shen got cut out again. Yes, it was his wife this time, Ning''er: "Young master Shen, if my husband wouldn''t be mad at you for taking a chance at wooing me, his wife earlier, that would be degrading my husband don''t you think? I, as such, think it''s time for our paths to end here since there is really no benefits to us continuing our talk." Ning''er with a hmmped looked at Shen Rong in disdain. After saying everything that needs to be said Ning''er pulled Zhihao by the sleeves as she drags him away. Zhihao glanced as he smirked at Shen Rong in a provoking manner before leaving him standing there. Seeing the mocking face that Zhihao had shown him, Shen Rong was enraged, he wanted to take action but this is the territory of the Zhong clan, what''s worst is that the Zhong clan is stronger than the Shen clan by a bit, and with the help of Ling clan, the Shen clan would definitely be destroyed because of his foolishness if he ever have any conflict with Zhihao. although he is already in the Elementary Realm lower stage, he was surely not stupid enough to fight the son and daughter of two Earth Establishment realm cultivators, The Zhong, Ling, and Sheng Clan all three of this Clan only have one Earth Establishment realm cultivator what''s worst is that the Zhong and Ling clan has higher cultivation level than their Shen clans'', 2nd stage of earth Establishment Shen Ming. The Zhong, Ling, and Shen Family actually have a good friendship between them, as Shen Ming, Zhong Ru Feng, and Ling Wentian were friends within the same academy. Shen Rong snorted and said to his followers: "Let''s go, I cant add more humiliation to this day, I need revenge but as the old saying goes, ten years is a little time for a gentleman''s revenge" he grinned as he envisions himself stepping on Zhihao''s face when he became the second Earth establishment realm of the Shen clan, but as soon as he started daydreaming, The follower besides him spoke. "Young master isn''t it ''When a nobleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late; one should bide one''s time and wait for the right opportunity to seek vengeance'' the right saying?" Shen Rong got enraged as he punched the follower and madly walked out and exited the town. ... Zhong Clan family estate. Ning''er and Zhihao returned to the clan and concoct a pill, but suddenly Zhihao got tightly pulled by Ning''er that he slammed to the floor outside the Zhong Clan family estate entrance gate. Zhihao didn''t know what he did, to deserve for his face to be slammed in the floor by his fiance isn''t that too sad, he can only cry tears with that. the Guards wanted to laugh, but as soon as they noticed that Zhihao was looking at them, they quieted down and contained their inner demons to laugh, their lives are important than a minute of entertainment. After standing up, Zhihao asked Ning''er: "Why?" he calmly stared at Ning''er then asked. raged pounce at his wife filled his heart but kept forcing himself not do it to Ning''er, with the dirts still in his face, and clothes he still tried to act noble. The Guards made a ''PUH!'' sound as they struggled to not open their mouths to prevent it from laughing out loud and getting fired from their work, but right at this moment, a laughter as loud as a blown horn sounded. "HAHAHAHA HAHAHA HA HAHAHAHAHA" it was none other than the one and only wife, Ling Ning''er. "Ahh, ahh, wait wait, lets come inside let me wash your face first, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Zhihao immediately walked to his courtyard and strode fast to clean himself, while Ning''er the one that promoted the scene was still holding her stomach, and laughing. Guard #1: "Luckily the lady is still there if we laughed while the young miss is gone, we''re really doomed. Guard #2: "Don''t even mention it and forget it, it would be better to keep our lives for all I care. _________________________________________________________________ Inside Zhihao''s courtyard, Yi yan walked in with a bucket of water, bringing it to the young miss. after handing the bucket of water to Ning''er, Ning''er spoke: "you are Dismissed" Yi Yan nodded then walked backward and replied "Yes Young miss." After noticing Yi Yan is gone, she laughed softly while holding her stomach wanting to keep it as low as possible "Pfft, huhu, hu, hihi hi", Zhihao after growing tired of it, spoke: "So when will you get over it? it was you in the first place, if you kept laughing like that, I wont share the pill I`ll make with you..."but before he finishes, laughter was still roaring inside his courtyard. After 30mins more, Ning''er finally calmed down, then Zhihao asked: "Done?" Ning''er finally calmed down as she slowly spoke "Yes dear husband, i''m done" Zhihao nodded and asked: "Ok so, why''d you pull me to the ground?" Ning''er: "Are you an alchemist? how come you can concoct a pill?" Zhihao pondered for a bit, then realized it himself, then he thought ''how would i even concoct a pill? I don''t even know how to cook an egg, I only know how to boil water for my instant noodles, but earlier I claimed to concoct some pills? what the...'' After pondering for a while Zhihao then he remembered something and asked: ''system, how would i concoct a pill if I''m not even an alchemist, what should I do?'' *Ding!* =Responding to host, we have a Alchemist Automated cauldron that can help you concoct pills automatically, you just need to be beside the cauldron for it to continue concocting the pill. Zhihao was enlightened, as he smiled then looked at Ning''er and said, "I am an alchemist don''t worry, as i will concoct our future pills." Ning''er replied: "Okay" as she rolled her eyes. then she continued. "Stop with your bravado, and why don''t you start then?" The Zhihao contacted the system the system again ''System ready, let''s do this!'' *Ding!* =Host, are you sure you want to concoct the ''sealed'' Dark willow sacred branch? Zhihao was dazed, then he facepalmed and slap himself in the face. after the idiotic display Zhihao immediately withdrew the dagger and poked his finger. 10 drops of blood flowed into the Dark Willow Sacred Branch, then, a sudden change happened to the dead looking willow, as half of the black part turned into white, making it look like a white branch burned by a half. then immediately the system notified. Quest Completed -Rewards had been transferred to the personal space inside the system inventor the host can check it afterward. -new function has been acquired, Supreme Martial System shop opened. -Host receives 50 quest points -Host receives 1000 experience points Zhihao Level up! -Host Receives Newbie package -Host''s current status : Name :Zhong Zhihao Age : 14 Years Old Host''s Level : 6 (255/1050) Cultivation Level : Final Foundation Cultivation Technique : Nil Cultivation Skills : Nil Strength : 29 Agility : 37 Stamina : 41 Wisdom : 22 Intelligence : 29 Attribute Points : 30 Skill Points : 9 Zhihao laughed at his heart but remained calmly, as he needed to concoct some pills and also don''t want to let his future wife creep out by his weird reaction. then he sat and asked the system to begin ''system lets start'' *Ding* =Host needs the following to concoct the pill -Dark willow sacred branch -Ashed lotus stem -Iced Lotus flower -Dire Vine Zhihao checked his interspatial ring and found that there is Ashed lotus stem and Iced lotus flower inside, but Zhihao has one missing ingredients, he asked as he remembered the shop in the system, ''system, do you have any dire vine in the shop?'' *Ding* = 5 points need are needed to purchase the Dire Vine. Continue? Zhihao immediately nodded and confirmed, then immediately said to the system '' start alchemist system, after a few seconds, a big cauldron appeared in front of Zhihao, Ning''er was shocked as this cauldron looked totally badass! so her husband really is an alchemist, Ning''er pondered for a while, thinking that ''if Zhihao fully focused on cultivation, he would''ve had already been in the Elementary Realm, or higher!'' Ning''er looked at Zhihao with confusion and amazement, before silently staring at him. Zhihao placed all the ingredients inside the cauldron, then after closing the lid it automatically produced golden flames beneath the cauldron as it started concocting the pills. After 15 mins, the cauldron automatically stopped shaking and the flame vanished. the lid automatically popped out, and smoke came out. *Ding!* Congratulations on the host for concocting Yin and Yang willow Pill! -Yin and Yang willow pill Has the effect of multiplying the cultivation by 6 times within 3 months the higher the cultivation, the lesser its effects.

Zhihao became excited, this is the first pill he ever made and it will definitely help him in a long run. ''he is now dreaming of the vast continent of Gailea under his foot as he strides the heaven and all being benea...'' His daydreaming immediately stopped as Ning''er woke him up from his daze Ning''er pinched him as she asked a question: "husband how do we share this?" Zhihao was dumbfounded and he sighed, he laughed softly as he said: "I`ll take 3 black and 2white, you take the rest" Zhihao sighed inside as he blew a heavy air out of his lungs, then he thought. ''haaaa a life with a wife sure is a hefty price to pay, especially if both are cultivators.'' Ning''er suddenly exclaimed: "AH!, this Black pill is hot!, while the white one is cold!, what kind of pill is this Zhihao. by the way, husband, if you can concoct a pill, why not auction some low-grade ones, I think we can have a lot of money for our future expenditures ." Ning''er spoke explaining Zhihao laughed a little, as he said: "Dear wife is right, how can we take care of our child if I! the father has no money, I`ll try it later Ning''er my wife" Ning''er blushed a little and calmed herself down as she spoke: "Zhihao, you should control your teasing by a lot! I`ll tell you on your mother, I`m sure she could help me extract my revenge. Hmmmp!" Ning''er snicked as she pulled out an interspatial ring hidden inside her waistband and hid the pills. Zhihao became awed, "You seriously have an interspatial ring, but you still hid it and made me spend alone, isn''t that cheating me?" Zhihao laughed at the sight of his wife being so manipulative. Ning''er replied: "Hmmp! if I didn''t, I would''ve had to spend a lot by myself too, so its fair, since I don''t have to spend my money if I`m together with my husband in the future, right? hihi, and everything I have would be spent on our future, especially when we are living separately from our family." After saying those, Ning''er giggled and glanced at Zhihao one more time before going to her mother''s side. Zhihao sighed as he thought ''Why are women always so complicated, are they born to be complicated? even in my previous World, they are like this, so much brain cells are dying just to figure their intentions out... woo,'' as he finished sighing, he emptied his mind and consumed the Black pill and focused on cultivating it. *Ding!* =Host can enter ''Enlightened mode'' to increase the phase of time and cultivation by two times. the host can decide the time to wake up from cultivation. -The host can decide when to wake up within 15mins - 50years, since the host is still weak, he can only enter the 1st stage of cultivation mode and provide the weakest time. -The host can also decide to wake up on special or normal circumstances only. =Example for normal and special circumstances are when you are going to be attacked, or being wakened up by someone else. Zhihao became ecstatic as even cultivation has a helper with this system. then he remembered that he also received some other item after the quest, ''System, give me the item that I received as a reward after I finished the quest'' *Ding!* =Host can open inventory by thinking ''INVENTORY'', it will immediately appear in front of the host.

Chapter 9 Wedding day Zhihao remembered something as he went outside to check on Yi Yan, then called out "Yi Yan, I''m going to cultivate for one day, don''t bother to bring me meals, and stop preparing for the bath, if its nothing important, do not disturb me" as Zhihao said this, he immediately went inside. Yi Yan: "Yes, Young Master." Yi Yan immediately went to the patriarch and re-told the order from young master''s to the patriarch. Ru Feng felt pleased yet again, his son is going to be married the day after tomorrow, but still choose to cultivate. Ru Feng calmly said: "Haha, the younger generation will surpass the old ones indeed. Pausing for a bit, Ru Feng smiled as he became glad at how passionate his son is towards cultivation, he then continued. "Pass my orders that no one is allowed to go 5 meters close to Hao''er for a day, and notify me once he finished cultivation." Yi Yan and the other servants immediately answered: "Yes, Patriarch" ... Ning''er entered the guest estate of the Zhong Clan where her family is saying and went to his Father and Mother resting room. after seeing them, she smiled gracefully and spoke: "Mother, Father, this Daughter of yours is back." Lin and Wentian smiled as Ruo Lin spoke: "How is he? Did you enjoy the tour of your husband in the town?" Wentian only smiled as this is a Mother-Daughter thingy that he isn''t good at. Ning''er replied like she had been to somewhere like a paradise: " Mother, this husband that you found for me isn''t bad, he has a good nature, and a very caring personality, he even bought me a pill cultivation bottle, and even concocted me some pills that give 6 times the yield but half the effort, this type of pill I was wondering if it is rare? please enlighten me father" as Ning''er noticed that his father also wants to ask but is too afraid of her Mother''s nagging, she initiated it herself. But to Ning''er''s surprise both his Father and Mother are getting cold sweats, then Wentian shakily asked Ning''er. "Ning''er, do you want to know? that kind of single pill, ca.. ca... ca... can" Ruo Lin tapped at his shoulder, then smiled beautifully. Wentian smiled as he sighed and calmed down. then he continued: "Can help you achieve cultivation higher than mine in a span of a year, and the value of that pill... if you both include Zhong clan and our Ling clan''s wealth, we can''t even afford a quarter of it. That kind of pill comes from the legend, the only existing ones even in the Imperial capital are only able to help a cultivator 4 times the yield, with half the effort. For little Zhihao to gift you a single pill like that is a fortune to..." But before finishing, Wentian saw his daughter pulled out 5 pieces of pill 2 black and 3 white ones. Wentian staggered, as he shockingly asked: "da... da... Daughter.... is that? That, you know that pill? The one you''re talking about?" Wentian couldn''t even describe how he is feeling right now, a single pill that could cause wars between many nations, a single one can make good friends, alliance, even family fight over it, but now, his daughter is holding five of them. Ning''er smiled as she sighed and spoke: "Father, I think I need to return this pills to Zhihao, it is too valuable to gift one to me, he even gave me 5 of them." Wentian smiled as he looked at his Wife, Ruo Lin and nodded, he then continued. "Go on daughter, it is good having a daughter like you, Your Mother and I take pride in you." Ning''er nodded and spoke: "Yes Father, I`ll be going now." ... Ning''er walked to Zhihao''s courtyard, she then was blocked by someone, it is Yi Yan Ning''er looked at Yi Yan as she spoke: "I''d like to talk to my husband, why are you blocking my way?" Yi Yan smiled as she bowed and replied: "Replying to Young Miss, Young master started cultivating a few hours ago and reminded us that he would be cultivating for a day, the Patriarch had commanded us that no one is to disturb the Young Master as he cultivates his realm, but Young Miss, you are the wife of Young Master I''d advise you go to the Patriarch so you could discuss it first before going to Young Master." Ning''er smiled and as she replied: "Ok, thank you, I''ll be going now, please continue your work." Ning''er paused then she looked back at Yi Yan then continued: "Thanks for informing me" after speaking, Ning''er immediately walked towards the great hall. Yi Yan smiled as she bowed and replied: "It is my duty Young Miss, Don''t worry about it." Ning''er went to see the Patriarch in the Zhong Clan''s great hall, and as expected Ru Feng is there reviewing some scrolls from the Zhong clan''s finances and affairs. Ning''er bowed towards Ru Feng as she greeted: "Patriarch, Ning''er greets and wishes to talk about something" Ru Feng stopped what he is doing as he looked at Ning''er and smiled at her as he spoke "Go on Ning''er, no need to be polite, you can just call me Father." Ning''er blushed as she smiled then nodded: "Yes father, this Daughter of yours wishes to return something that was given to me by Zhihao, its a valuable cultivation pill for cultivators that even with all of the Ling clan''s wealth was spent it wouldn''t be enough to buy something of similar quality." Ru Feng pondered for a bit as he smiled yet again, the fortune of my Son is definitely good, This Lady is definitely good. Ru Feng looked at Ning''er then continued: "Little Ning''er, you should use that already, if I know my own son, after he gave you something, he wouldn''t take it back, even if he dies. So you should cultivate now and focus on it or you can also prepare for your wedding with our Hao''er, it is within the day after tomorrow, you should rest now." Ning''er hesitated for a bit before nodding and replied: "Then I will be going now, Father, thank you for your time" Ru Feng laughed heartily and nodded as he spoke:"Hahah, go on, do your business, your wedding is getting closer, and it would be best if you prepare yourself for now. hohoho" Ning''er blushed and nooded before bidding her farewell: "Good night Father" After speaking, Ning''er bowed and walked out of the Grand hall returning to the Guest room. Ru Feng smiled as he nodded and got back with the scrolls. ... Zhihao''s Courtyard A Day has passed rather quickly in the system meditation mode, Zhihao felt like he had just blinked, and then 24 hours have passed, isn''t that like doing nothing but benefiting a lot? as Zhihao opened his eyes as he suddenly heard a notification. "Ding!" - Level up! - Cultivation up! Host''s current status : Name: Zhong Zhihao Age: 14 Years Old Host''s Level: 12 (10/4990) Cultivation Level: Elementary Realm 9th stage( 920/5800) Cultivation Technique: Nil Cultivation Skills: Nil Strength: 86 Agility: 102 Stamina: 111 Wisdom: 73 Intelligence: 97 Attribute Points: 60 Skill Points: 16 Zhihao checked his stats and was amazed, in a blink of his eye, he already became much stronger than before! Then he smelled something, it stinks! he then checked himself, he was full of sweat and dust, Zhihao smiled as he realized that it''s been a whole day and he hasn''t taken a bath for a full day adding to the fact that he bathed early morning yesterday, that''s 39hrs in total! he called Yi Yan and ordered to prepare the bath for him. After a few minutes, Yi Yan called him and tell him that the bath is already prepared. Zhihao took a bath and changed to some new fresh clothes, its already 11 PM and he needs to sleep because tomorrow is his wedding day, after laying in the bed for a few minutes, he fell asleep. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Waking up, Zhihao stretched his arm wide, then looked outside, Yi Yan is there with a couple of new faces, they are gonna prepare him for the wedding, he took a bath, and was helped to be dressed by the clan''s Maids. Zhihao sets out from his Courtyard and went to the grand hall to visit his old man. Arriving, Zhihao saw 2 men and 2 women, he then proceeded to greet the four of them: "Father, Mother, second Mother, and second Father, Zhihao greets the three. Zhihao bowed slightly as he walked towards them. after a few minutes, Ling Ning''er also arrived. Ning''er wore a very lovely white wedding dress with a little bluish colors mixed in them, making the dress suitable for her as her lovely light blue hair and mesmerizing blue eyes that can even the hottest stones turn cold, her slender figure, and jade white skin added to the glamour of Ning''er''s beauty. Zhihao was mesmerized at the sight in front of him, this beautiful fairy is gonna be his wife after today. Pausing for a bit, Zhihao asked the System again. ''System, I need a gifting box, elegant, and presentable, a chest that can be bought by the points I have left.'' "Ding!" =Host can purchase ''Jade preserving chest'' the size is 8x4 inches, it has the effect of preserving anything that is inside for 100 years without deteriorating. Needed quest points : 20 =proceed to purchase? Zhihao immediately confirmed, then added, ''Put all the remaining stones inside'' Hearing Zhihao''s request, the system immediately replied. *Ding!* =Order has been completed. Chapter 10 JERK!! STUPID!! IDIOT!!!!! *Ding!* =With the passion of the host, a bonus has been made depending on the circumstances, Yin and Yang willow pill has been appraised and revealed its hidden features are revealed. -Yin and Yang willow pill Has the effect of multiplying the cultivation by 6 times within 3months the higher the cultivation, the lesser its effects. Hidden Features: -Dual cultivation will increase the effects of the pill by two times, giving 12 times the effect but shortening the duration into 1month. Zhihao''s mouth opened without caring for the surrounding. Ning''er blushed as she misunderstood Zhihao as she smiled a little. Ning''er hesitated a bit but still spoke: "husband close your mouth, or flies will enter it" she giggled a bit with still red cheeks. Everyone in the hall laughed as they understood what Ning''er had said, and it definitely looked like it too. Zhihao''s mouth closed, and smirked, coming back to reality every once in a while after daydream became his norm after reincarnation. Zhihao then spoke, "Wife, come and stand by my side." Hearing his word, Ning''er blushed as she went gracefully like a fairy descending from the heavens. A lot of people came as they congratulated Zhong and Ling patriarchs. All of them marched to the altar as Ning''er and Zhihao made the vow inside. After the ceremony was held, all people Celebrated by eating and drinking and chatting with each other. Being the husband, Zhihao Toasted with all the people that approached him, around 450 people, and not even forgetting to introduce their most beautiful daughter. While Ning''er already left to their rest in the chamber. Then suddenly a man Approached, his name is Shen Ming, together with him are two youngsters, one male, and one female, the male one is Shen Rong, and the other one is Shen Xiao. Shen Ming laughed as he congratulated Zhihao: "Hahaha Zhihao, you''ve grown big, I still remember carrying you in my shoulders when you are still two years old. This is my daughter, Xiao, and next to her is Rong, I think you two both knew each other, I apologize in his stead as I`ve been too busy with the clan that I couldn''t teach him proper manners." Zhihao laughed as this man didn''t do anything, but still chooses to apologize for his son''s mistake, so why would Zhihao need to bore hatred out of nothing. its'' his son''s fault not his, This man definitely is a man of word. Zhihao just casually said "We of younger generation tends to show off as we have that much stamina to waste and are being too willful, I have already forgotten it, if patriarch Shen didn''t even say it, I would''ve forgotten about it already. hahaha." Shen Ming laughed as he said "Good, good, like father like son indeed, back in my days, your father has a lot of enemies, we three stood together, and bullied everyone in our way to cultivation. Rong, haven''t you heard him already, what are you standing there for!" Shen Rong glanced at Zhihao as he said: "Sorry" Shen Ming immediately smacked his head and then "What kind of attitude are you showing here, I`d disowned you if I only had one more son! the heavens have forsaken me, giving me genius daughters, but threw me an idiotic son!." Shen Rong wanted to cry, this is a celebration so definitely a lot of people here. he got embarrassed as he quickly said "Zhihao, the matter about the past, I sincerely apologize for not handling it well," Zhihao just accepted it and nodded for a bit, he is a little bit tipsy that he can only concentrate 60% Shen Ming immediately asked Zhihao. "Little Hao, whats your current cultivation realm now? you are already fourteen years old. I''m a little curious. Zhihao smiled and nodded before answering, "I`m at the Elementary Realm Pinnacle stage, I just broke through yesterday." Zhihao smiled and looked at them, but he found that everyone in the hall including his father and mother is looking at him with a strange expression. Their son two days ago was only at Foundation pinnacle stage, but two days after he''s in Elementary Realm Pinnacle stage! what kind of drunk talk is that, but the question only lasted for a few seconds before Zhihao did something. WooOOSH! Zhihao used the Elementary Realm pinnacle stage to disperse the alcohol in his body and smiled at them. Shen Ming was astonished as his son is already 19years old and only at the Early stage of Elementary Realm, what kind of dream is this that he is seeing a 14 years old youth in the Elementary Realm and whats more, the Pinnacle stage! Shen Rong immediately shivered, this kind of cultivation can''t be explained by the current cultivators gathered together. Zhihao smiled as he broke the silence and said: "hahaha, let''s continue the celebration now, its good to have a celebration like this once in a while." Zhihao jokingly said. Then his Father Zhong Ru Feng and his in-law Ling Wentian approached him, they both said at the same time: "GOOD BOY! you know how to surprise me indeed!" they both looked at each other and laughed, both of them patted Zhihao''s shoulders. After a while, they walked away with Shen Ming, then Shen Ming followed up. "Shen Rong goes together with me, Xiao Xiao, accompany little Zhihao for a bit. we men need to talk about something. Hahaha" Shen Xiao who got what her Father said blushed for a bit. then looked at Zhihao. Zhihao, who is stupid enough that he didn''t get anything at all. Zhihao smiled at Shen Xiao as he said "Accompanying me will be hectic hahaha, a lot of people will come toast with me" Xiao smiled as she replied: "Its ok, I''m used to it, Father is a bit of a drunkard and always throws celebration every few months." Zhihao smiled and said: "hahaha good then, let us go" After a few moments of walking, he waited for other people to approach him, but to his surprise, no one approached him. Shen Rong yelled that Xiao is to accompany Zhihao. The people already knew what it means. and that is to stay away from Zhihao and let the two have some conversation amongst themselves. Zhihao accompanied and talked with Xiao for a while until evening approached then two figures appeared. It was Shen Ming and Shen Rong. Shen Ming spoke: "Xiao''er, I think you had enough time, we should go home now, your mother might be worried." Shen Ming paused and laughed as he looked at Zhihao then continued: "Hahaha let Zhihao do his things, Zhihao, I`ll bid you farewell, for now, hope we can meet again. oh and Xiao''er will also be attending Celestial Palace academy when she turns 15, take good care of her by that time HAHAHAHAHA" Shen Ming took Shen Xiao as they parted with Zhihao. Zhihao pondered a little then returned to the celebration, but someone blocked him, a tall figure and two of them at that! it was evening and lights are against the two that Zhihao can only see their silhouettes. Then one of them said. "Zhihao, do your duties to your wife now, we`ll handle the rest". yes, it is Zhong Ru Feng and Ling Wentian. Zhihao smiled and nodded, though he didn''t know what duties they were talking about, but he still returned to the chamber anyway. When he came in, he saw that there is only one bed, and in there he saw Ning''er motionlessly lying in the bed, then as a stupid person, Zhihao came to the bed, and laid to the other side of the bed. there he then silently fell asleep. Ning''er who was anxiously waiting for his husband to move, waited... yes ... w.a.i.t.e.d. 10mins has passed she can hear small crumbling in the bed within Zhihao''s side, Ning''er fell nervous again, as her face was covered in red, from her face down to her upper chest it was all red. thinking that Zhihao was taking his clothes off, she nervously waited. 5minutes... 30minutes... 1hour... ... Somewhere outside Zhihao''s chamber. Outside of a few hundred meters out,both Zhong Ru Feng is guarding to prevent anyone from intervening, but there is another motive for it, they wanna hear if it has started... If it hears it they would leave immediately and set up a defensive formation.When they heard a rustle of clothes they thought that, it is beginning. They waited and prepared to leave. 5minutes... 30minutes... 1 hour... Then Ling Wentian asked, "Hey old friend, take it as I am joking but... Is little hao, you know,... Swing that way or uhhh has a problem with that thing". Ru Feng snorted and glared at Wentian: "Stupid! How come I the greatest man in our time has a son that has malfunctions! Are you starting a fight here? Hmmp!" After that, he followed up. with a low tone: "I think they are just both embarrassed and nervous so we should give them time" Wentian immediately replied: "Right, right, they are still inexperienced kids after all." after 2hours more. A sound came from Zhihao''s chamber. "Plak!" Wentian and Ru Feng heard a hard slap echoed. Both of them stared at each other then smiled sadly as they sighed, they imagined that something was happening, and little Ning got embarrassed as she slapped Zhihao very hard, they both sighed and vanished back to their quarters. ... Back with Zhihao''s chamber 1hour earlier. Although an hour has passed, Ning''er was still thinking hard, what is taking this guy so long, ''I''ve been prepared for a long time, maybe he is just being considerate. yes, he is that kind of guy after all. I`ll just wait until he is ready.'' 2 hours... Ning''er was already calmed down, but still a bit nervous, as this is her first time, But she then heard a snoring sound. ''Kuhhhhhh, Wooooooo, Kuhhhhh woooooo'' just right at this moment, her lovely, and charming appearance changed, drastically, she slowly sat up as she slowly turned to look at Zhihao. the nervousness was gone the time she heard the snoring, and it changed to something else. The warm room turned cold instantly, she had this smile. that I bet you won''t ever forget if you ever saw it. then immediately "PAK!" A loud slap echoed through the chamber as if lightning came down from the heavens. Ning''er shouted from the bottom of her stomach, "JERK!! STUPID!! IDIOT!!!!!!!" Chapter 11 After the Great Wedding Nigh Zhihao, was dreaming, of being a supreme sovereign soaring the heavens, mountain splits as he wields his sword, heavens shook as he flies in the sky, and earth rumbles as he descends from the sky. a great dream, having all kinds of wealth and power in his possession establishing his own sect, and unblocked by any paths, he, Zhihao was the greatest, but the greatest guy got slapped awake by his wife on their first Wedding Night!. Zhihao woke up extremely fast, well who wont right? being slapped in the face while you were dreaming of being so damn great. then Zhihao looked at Ning''er with eyes of bewilderment and asked calmly : " Dear wife, uhh.. WHY? did i do some..." but before he can finish, another "PLAK!" smacked with a hand of his wife, Zhihao''s mind went blank and asked again, "Why?" this time he held his hands up to guard against another slap. yet the only thing he saw was a beautiful face, glaring at him, while tears are running down his wife''s beautiful eyes. Ning''er with a red face because as she cant really say it out loud, that what? she was waiting for something to happen to them? wasn''t that like being a pervert? waiting to be r*p*d... the only thing she could do was tear up and silently cry, Holding her voice and not letting any crying sound. then she planned to go back to bed, but before she could do it, Zhihao, the stupid guy, finally understood something after so many hours had passed. Zhihao hugged Ning''er from behind, Ning''er was shocked, but immediately calmed down as she had been preparing for this for 2hours already, then she nodded slightly to affirm her resolution. Right after that, Zhihao''s voice came : "if you want it, i am so sorry that i couldn''t give it to you earlier, and i know that you cant talk about it, since you were sleeping, so i`m going to go in the couch, you can keep the whole bed..." After finishing that, another hand approached his face, now its not a palm, its seriously a fist now! (Author''s Question 1 : OHHHH you thought something will happened right? HAHAHAHA well this author is really wicked), Ning''er glared at her, but can''t blame him too,(sooooo our little heroine just goes punch punch and slap slap) because he really didnt know what happened. Ning''er said loudly : "OUR FATHERS WANTS A GRANDSON!" After that Zhihao sweated a lot as if he just came out of a bath!, then Zhihao stared at her for like 1hour stoned like some random statue in a temple. Ning''er didnt know what to do either as she lowered her head ashamed of what she just said. she kept glancing at Zhihao, then she noticed, Zhihao has been stunned! Ning''er felt warm as this kind of reaction would be from someone that is pure and also haven''t had any malicious intention to her. She hugged Zhihao and said, :"Zhihao, you know, uhh since we''re both innocent and don''t know a thing why dot we take thing slower?" she giggled and continued to hug Zhihao, Zhihao got shocked by the hug, but calmly, thought, i am almost turning 40 mentally, but I''m still stupid like this. Zhihao hugged Ning''er back and slowly tilted his head towards her, when Ning''er saw this, she got shocked and wanted to pforce herself out, but remembered that this is how she pictured it and was just shocked, she looked at zhihao then closed her eyes, Zhihao could feel that she''s trembling but hell, he''s shaking madly, then just as the atmosphere became warm, he just let instinct lead the way, he went to kiss her, After a few moments, both of them parted, panting catching some air as they hugged each other, then Zhihao''s hand slid from her neck following the spine, after reaching behind the stomach area, he easily removed the robe thats wrapping around Ning''er. Ning''er noticed what he was planning to do and just followed the lead, after the robe was removed she wrapped her arms around Zhihao''s neck and kissed him again, the nightwas beautiful and moans can be heard every now and then, but there was a defensive formation outside and also a bonus noise control formation. (well there you go! Hahaha!! This author is great Author''squestion #2 you guys thought nothing would happen after my first question? Hahahaha guess again, but im too tired to narrate all the events that occured, maybe in a 100+ chapters) ______ After a night of passion, the both of them woke up almost in the afternoon, they stared at their butt naked self after that night, and bith shyly smiled, Ning''er leaned to Zhihao''s chest as she said : we should go and greet our parents..." before finishing all that she could say, Zhihao kissed her lips and said : "ok let us go get take a bath first then dressed and then go to the great hall". After almost an hour of preparations, Ning''er and Zhihao took their leave, Ning''er kept looking at him wanting to say something but couldn''t, she just placed her arm around Zhihao''s arm and walked together. Then some random citizens of the town spoke. "Hahaha, i guess the first night didnt go to well" "Hahaha that''s for sure, though its good too if they are willful like that hahaha" Then someone cheered it''s a member of the Zhong clan :"young master! You can do it! there is always a next time!" Then all the surrounding villagers laughed as they pointed at the zhong clan member. Zhihao was bewildered ''were they talking about me?'' And asked Ning''er: "Ning''er, we''re they talking about us?" Then he noticed that Ning''er was actually looking down.so he didn''t bother to continue asking anymore. They continued to walk, after 3 more minutes, they arrived at the great hall then as he walked to greet the elderly, he saw something shocking, the two fathers sighed heavily, the two mothers smiled sadly. what the heck is wrong with this, i got married, then they are sad, isn''t this very wrong ?. then he greeted them together Zhihao / Ning''er : "Greetings father and mother." then Zhihao added, as he was getting annoyed with the atmosphere after leaving his chamber. Zhihao continued :"Father, why are you all sighing? i think its time for us to celebrate my married. why are you guys acting like that" Hearing Zhihao, all of them sighed heavily again. his father suddenly said : "Dont worry, you dont have to rush anything, you both are still young so you`ll have lots of opportunity. dont force yourself the both of you" just after Ru Feng finished speaking, Zhihao immediately butted in. Zhihao : "Father what are you even talking about, we''re even going to announce something good. so why are you guys so gloomy, first off, maybe in nine months you`ll have a grandson or grand daughter then you both can decide on my child''s name ....." before he finished speaking. Both the fathers, ran forward and asked right away: "Son/Daughter are you guys serious?" the brightness in their eyes can be seen as tears are falling in their eyes, two great lords of clans, that didn''t tear up even after getting deeply wounded, cried after knowing their grandchild is in the making, they almost wept, they went back to their own wife and hugged them while crying tears of joy. Ning''er smiled bashfully as she said : "we dont know yet but we tried yesterday, ummn i think there would be a high chance, as it took us a long time....." after saying that much, she seemingly noticed that she had said too much and blushed from her head to her neck. then Ruo Mei asked : "Then son, what happened to your face? why is there a slap mark on both of your cheeks, and a punch mark in the middle of your brows? " After hearing what his mother said, Zhihao widened her eyes in bewildered manner and looked at Ning''er, Seemingly asking if what are they talking about, and if what they are talking about is true? why didn''t you say anything? my wife, dear wife, atleast... atleast save some face for your husband when he''s walking in the street, i cant even think of walking outside to return to my court now.... Chapter 12 Getting Rich or Die Trying! After the uproar between the family members, they calmed down and talked some topics, between them, and as such came the enrollment within three months in Celestial Palace academy. the academy is one of the great three academies within theEternal Blood Imperial Kingdom and it is ranked 2nd among the 3 academies. they only spend 4 years in academy and can go make their ownpaths after graduation, there would be great Sects, Production guilds ( Alchemist guild, Weapon smith guild, Inscriptions guild, and so on), establishing their own clan, and whatever Dao they choose to pursue. as such Academies are the starting points by alot of legends. Ru Feng started the discussion with asking the two of them : "Ning''er, Hao''er, do you guys want to continue staying here, Hao''er would be a patriarch and can still lead you a good life, or do you want to pursue higher things?" the 4 parents looked at their child wondering, they wouldn''t want to obstruct the path of the two genius youngling, since all cultivators should choose what what they want to do. Ning''er answered immediately : "no matter what my husband has decided, i`ll comply" When Zhihao heard this, he smiled and said : "Ahh! i forgot! Ning''er give me the pills, its better if we both use it together, the benefits of that pill will be doubled if we double cultivated it, as i have consumed one already, you should consume one too, consume the white one." Ning''er handed the pill without hesitation, then smiled, as this originally belonged to Zhihao, she didnt mind if he dont share it with her. Then Zhihao took something from the spatial ring, It''s the jade chest that he bought from the quest store, he handed it to his father and said : "Father, this is my parting gift to you guys, after I become more powerful and returned, i`ll give you all a secured life, and more treasures like this. ones," then he handed 4 pills 2 for each of clan patriarch. it is the Yin and Yang willow pill. then he continued "This pill will help you guys for 1 month, 3 months if consumed separately, its called Yin and Yang willow pill, this pill will help you cultivate 6 folds with the effort of half, and 15 folds if you use dual cultivation" both the Patriarch and their wives, were shocked, this thing can definitely be their own ruin if words got out, Ru Feng immediately declined saying : "The both of you would need it more, this treasures should be for the younger generations to use, not us dying people HAHAHAHA!" they are still at the age of mid 30s but still, who would like to steal their offspring''s blessing specially if its a rare treasure. then Zhihao looked at them and said, :"we only need three sets, for 3 months before going to the academy. if we bring more and got noticed by unwanted attention, we might bring trouble to the clan and ourselves, so its better to have stronger fathers and mothers. and we both would like to have siblings too, since this pill would help, father, i`d like a little sister ok? don''t stop until you get one! hahahaha" Zhihao laughed while Ning''er smiled embarrassingly. then Ru Feng, and Wentian laughed heartily and said, "HAHAHAHAHA just one? i`ll try to even have two, maybe three, it would be lonely without our child beside us" then suddenly both became quiet as they got pinched by the side of their wife. Ruo Mei and Ruo Lin definitely treat each other like sisters as they both grew up, they reacted at the same time, and same features. the hall became cheery as the families laughed and talked about topics,. after a few more hours it went dark outside, its already evening, and since its like this, Ling Wentian and Ruo Lin bid their farewells, they need to go back to the Ling Clan to settle all the matters that they had left un-attended, its almost been a week, so problems might occur if they stayed for a few more days. Zhihao and Ning''er also bid their farewells, as they walked back to Zhihao''s courtyard, Zhihao Prompted the system while walking, since Ning''er is clinging to him, and is silent. he checked the system, ''System, i`d like to learn the Divine Might Cultivation technique '' *Ding!* (oh deim i missed this Ding!, you guys?) =Accepted order... order completed! =host can check the cultivation within the status box. Beep! (im wondering if i should add this Beep every after the System talked, what do you guys think?) Host''s current status : Name :Zhong Zhihao Age : 14 Years Old Host''s Level : 12 (10/4990) Cultivation Level : Elementary Realm 9th stage( 920/5800) Cultivation Technique : Divine Might cultivation Technique. (Acknowledged) Cultivation Skills : Nil SStrength : 86 Agility : 102 Stamina : 111 Wisdom : 73 Intelligence : 97 Attribute Points : 60 Skill Points : 16 Zhihao was satisfied but still asked, ''system, i`d like to purchase a cultivation technique for my wife, recommend me some, something like this Divine Might cultivation technique.'' *Ding!* =Host can choose from any amongs the cultivation techniques but host only has 25 quest points remaining, the lowest price for a cultivation technique that can reach heavenly establishment realm is 150 quest points. would host like to have a sub quest?. Beep! Zhihao laughed as he said " YES!" who wouldn''t want to get free things doing quests. *Ding!* =Host has accepted. Quest being filtered based on host''s current abilities. Filtering completed. = Sub-Quest. Concoct pills and sell it to the auction house, earn atleast 10 pieces of low level cultivation stones -Time Limit = 30Days. Reward : Varies on how much Low Level cultivation stones the hosts get. host will get 10 quest points per 1 piece of low level cultivation acquired. Zhihao got so excited, but remained calm, he just uttered softly "I`ll be getting rich! or die trying!" Chapter 13 Bone Shattering Pill, Shattered Medicinal Pill, Sacred Origin pill. after hearing Zhihao, Ning''er glared at him and said : "get rich but dont die trying, aren''t you stupid.if you are still alive, you can do anything you can to get rich, but if you died, who would make me and our child live happily i might even come with you." Zhihao touched his nose as he felt warmth in his heart, ''ahh, i should''ve married from my last life too!, ahh no no, atleast this woman is my wife, nothing can be more better than this, unless i got 10 Ning''er HAHAHAHA'' Zhihao grinned weirdly as he imagined it, but then a sudden pinched by Ning''er woke him up : "stop thinking of weird thoughts, you looked stupid just now..." Zhihao : "Yes yes my lady, ahh i forgot, you cultivate for 3days, im going to concoct some pills and sell them to the auction." Ning''er nodded and said : " i`ll go with you once you set out to sell the items in the auction" Hearing what Ning''er said, Zhihao pondered for a bit then shook his head, : " I''m not gonna sell in this town, i think i`ll go to the border of our kingdom it''s a city called Valder Tradings City, it was a trading company that settled between our kingdom, Divine Monarch Imperial Kingdom, and Azure Feather Imperial kingdom, its a seized the opportunity to be in the middle of the three kingdom to flourish, if i just auctioned pills here, i`ll only get gold coins, low cultivation pills are what i need to get, and if you come with me, i wouldn''t know how to avoid trouble, since bringing a beauty with me would attract more annoyance, and i might not be able to protect you, we might both die so, you should listen to me now, and stay here to cultivate, Okay?" Ning''er nodded her head, remember the time with Shen Rong, if its a powerful clan that approached her that day, Zhihao and she might''ve been seperated forever, thinking to this point, she nodded again reluctantly. ______________________________________________________ Zhihao''s courtyard Ning''er started cultivation while Zhihao asked the system again, ''system, which pills could i concoct now, and help me get lots of benefits, also check for the most basic ingredients that i can acquire here in the town, cheap but can sell highly outside'' *Ding!* (oh yeah i love this ding) =Calculating based on host''s conditions... Loading.... Loading.. Loading... (yeah keep loading) *Ding!* =Calculation complete three pills found -Bone Shattering Pill -Shattered Medicinal Pill -Sacred Origin pill Zhihao smiled and thought ''Appraisal!'' Bone Shattering Pill Shatters the bones of a Sky Establishment realm or lower. effects will happen if eaten by a person. Ingredients : Fragrant grass Lotus Blade leaf Lava dust Essence of Fire Zhihao got shocked as this pill is for torturing... damn, or it might even kill a person... Shattered Medicinal pill recovers all kind of bone fractures, even if the bone is shattered,. Ingredients : Fragrant grass Lotus blade flower Ice Wine Essense of Water Zhihao damn, definitely a torture combination! Sacred Origin pill -Recovers all type of wounds, internal and external injuries returning the state of the body to normal. -Can only be used once. (host can use it only 50 times.) Ingredients : Heavenly dew Wine Marbled Daffodil leaf Essence of Light Purple Tracing grass 100 year old Ginseng Zhihao ahh definitely, this system loves me.. but, the ingredients of Sacred Origin Pill are alot, after seeing all the ingredients, Zhihao immediately went to the market and purchased everything, he spent a total of 1992(my birth year)golds to purchase for a few batches of ingredients. Zhihao asked the system again '' System, lets begin concocting!'' immediately, a Cauldron suddenly showed infront of him, then he immediately placed all ingredients inside. then the system rang *Ding!* =stupid host, I have an automatic concocting pill, not a magical ingredients divider that can divide all the ingredients inside and concoct it separately. you are being too lazy, the cauldron can only concoct one at a time. STUPID! Zhihao was shocked, This system actually stopped talking calm and actually cursed at him. after that he took out all of the ingredients and placed it a batch of ingredients, one by one after 18 hrs of automatic concocting, Zhihao finally stopped, he had 18bottles of Bone Shattering Pill 34 bottles of Shattered Medicinal Pill and 80 bottles of Sacred Origin pill. after storing half into the inventory and half to the spatial ring, Zhihao handed 1 bone shattering pill to Ning''er and 4 bottles of shattered medicinal pill, then 5 Sacred Origin pill. since its already evening, they both went to bed. _______________________________________________________________ When morning came, Zhihao bid farewell to Ning''er and his father and mother. retelling the story, he bought a horse, stored a few meats to eat in the road then continued to travel. Zhihao stopped once in a while in other villages he passed by to eat a proper meal in an inn. after one day on the road its already evening, he came across South Winds village the last stop before Valder trading City. Just when he entered South Wind Village a fat guy welcomed him, then said "Young traveller, would you like to buy a house here? its really cheap and close to valder trading city. would you like to buy? its really cheap look over there that house only costs 150 gold" when Zhihao heard it, he took a peak at the house, and there are still people living there, when the fat guy noticed this concern : "ahh those family are free loaders, i am the owner of that house, but they havent paid for the rent for a month, I loaned them money first but now, they got bankrupt and can''t afford to pay me back, out of good will i let them stay there, but good will can''t last forever, they owe me 20 golds, and i don''t have other income than renting that house, but if they cant pay, i wont have anything to eat, so what say you young traveller?" Zhihao although new to society, he knew that this guy is not good nor evil, its just business and people need money to survive, then he said, "I`m a cultivator, do you want to serve under me? i`ll let you become my butler, since you are the first one i`ve invited." Being invited by a cultivator, the fat guy was excited and immeditely agreed : " Yes young master!, i would even beg to follow you if given chance, but now that you`ve invited me, i would do everything i can! my name is Ma Dong, you could call me Little Dong or Dong''er young master as you like" although he knew that cultivators travelling alone would be a solitary one, this young one must not be one of them, and only doing an errand for others or for himself. Zhihao almost burst out laughing thinking ''this guy, seriously Dong''er? HAHAHAHAHA definitely weird naming sense HAHAHAHAHA Dong''er LOL! i should call you balls then HAHAHAHA.'' Zhihao nodded and ordered "Lets go to that house first, and don''t call yourself dong''er anymore, just butler ma would do." Dong''er nodded (HAHAHAHAHA), Yes, Young master" Butler ma Pondered for a bit, maybe he`ll kick them out, i think he invited me as a butler to get the house for free and leave me behind afterwards. i should''ve been careful, but, i have this Balls(HAHAHAHAHA) feeling that this man wont do it, and following him would be a fortune of a life time ( A. N : its actually Gut Feeling, but i just had to call him Donger and balls, HAHAHA). Chapter 14 Lin Family Dong''er, no sorry(pfft!),. Butler Ma lead Zhihao to the house, as soon as the family saw Zhihao, they smiled gently and thanked Dong''er ARGG! no butler Ma : "Master Dong, thank you for letting us use this great house of yours for more days than possible, my family and I would keep this great favor unto our grave, whenever you see us Lin family member, you can ask anything of us, even if its dying, i dont know what more i could do for you but i`ll do anything even if i die" Butler Ma''s eyes became filled with guilt, he came to kick them out because of young master, he''s regretting his decision already, Zhihao yet again confirmed his assumption, Butler Ma is definitely good, not too good, neither evil, just a person trying to live his life, Zhihao then said : "state your names" the Lin family we''re shocked and looked at Butler Ma, seeing that Butler Ma is bowing his head and with downed shoulders, the Lin Family head sighed, this guy must be very powerful, The Lin family head(husband) spoke : "Yes young master, I am Lin Huotian 39, this is my eldest daughter Lin Miho age 19, this is my 2nd daughter Lin Yanran 14, this is my son Lin Hong 12, and this is my wife Lin Meixing 39." Lin Huatian immediately looked at Zhihao. then he noticed, that no expression was in his face. completely like a poker face. Zhihao sighed internally, they had the same statue as him before he died, poor and living at the end of a thread. he looked at Huotian then said : "i`d like to buy your daughter Lin Yanran, here is 500gold" after hearing what Zhihao said. Huotian glared at Zhihao and immedietely shouted at his family : "RUN!" all of the family members we''re stunned and couldn''t move. preparing to charge at Zhihao, Lin Huotian picked up the spoon that was close to him, he held it as he charge towards Zhihao''s location. but to his surprise Zhihao didnt move and received the spoon with the power of hatred. Lin Huotian immediately understood, this guy is a cultivator, but then he grabbed Zhihao''s feet and screamed : "Meixing! PLEASE RUN!" then meixing pushed the kids outside the door and said :"Miho take your siblings to safety, we would hold on for as long as we can! GO NOW GO!" but then a shout sounded, It was Lin Yanran:" PLEASE STOP! i''m begging you, you only want me, please take me with you and let my family live~!." Zhihao smiled and then said : "A good father and mother would definitely raise a good child, i''m sorry for the words i said earlier, i was just checking things, though this gold is definitely something i`ll give you, please use this as a means to raise them even better, make them study and become a cultivator, then pay me the gold after that, is that ok with you Lin Huotian?" after saying that Butler Ma and the Lin Family was shocked this young master was only testing their resolution, but its just extreme, as this guy said something harsh. but after thinking, harsher means more realistic to others, they sighed of relief and said : " Young master, we still cant accept the gold, it would be troublesome for us if people noticed we got gold coins" Zhihao smiled then said,:" don''t worry i`ll instruct Butler Ma to hire a few guards, you would be able to pay for them right?, your son and daughter still has a future, and its not giving, its lending" Zhihao used the word lending so that it would be easier to swallow. Huotian kowtowed and said :"Young master, this favor, i would never ever forget, even to the future generation of my Lin family" Zhihao smiled, the sincerity of this kowtow made his heart felt warm, then he ordered butler Ma : "find an Inn for the both of us" then Yanran exclaimed :"Young master! why not live here? we''re only borrowing this place from butler ma" then after a while she blushed. Zhihao really was a toy boy type of guy, what kind of normal girl wouldn''t fall for him he has all the qualities all ladies would like to have as a husband, strong, capable, and with a bonus of Handsomeness, then Huotian said : "Yes young master, i`ll let my two daughters sleep with us." Zhihao sighed and then nodded, : "ok" then turned to Butler ma and continued :"Find some security, tell them a cultivator found his lost relative and wish for them safety in this city." Butler Ma immediately heeded the order and went out. Zhihao then said : "I`ll be going to valder trading city tomorrow, i`ll be leaving shortly after i wake up together with butler ma, be sure to take care of this house, Butler Ma will be using this house as his retirement home in the future." as he said that Huotian answer then followed by Yanran, : " Yes young master, we''ll act as the owner of this house and protect it" then Yanran said :"Young master, if, if, if ever, umm, please visit us again!" then Yanran ran to her room, Zhihao smiled and nodded to Huotian. he asked which room to go and he stayed there then fell asleep. Chapter 15 Valder Trading Auction house Auctioning Pills morning came, Zhihao prepared to leave the house, Yanran ran outside to see him off, she said "Young master, Please remember me!" Zhihao smiled and nodded before heading out with Butler ma, now that there are two of them, Zhihao bought a carriage, although Zhihao might looked rich, but he only has 61 gold coins left. luckily carriage is not as expensive as a car in his previous world. it only costs 100 silvers. butler Ma drived the carriage in the direction of Valder Trading City. Zhihao just cultivated in fear of getting left out by Ning''er after returning When Butler Ma saw Valder Trading City, he immediately called Zhihao, :"Young master, Valder Trading City is on sight" Zhihao responded with a ''Ok'' then continued to cultivate. Butler Ma got the gist of it since he knew that cultivators need to cultivate, if they don''t cultivate, they are not cultivators no? after 45minutes they arrived at the City gates, the guard saw the Embroidered carriage and immedietely led it to the VIP Gate which has less traffic, before leaving south wind village, Zhihao handed the 61gold to butler ma, for any necessitieslike food, and inn, he didnt know there was a toll gate even in this world so couldn''t really estimate, but since its only 1 gold he wouldnt mind even if he went back in forth 50 more times. After entering the City, butler ma directly went to the most expensive Hotel in city, and it costs 5gold per night, this type of hotel has a servant''s quarters so he could free load there, they even provide food, so its no worries for him, he immediately payed 50 gold for 10 days, the clerk smiled and received the gold then handed him a key, Butler Ma returned to the carriage and spoke : "Young Master, the Inn is already prepared" after butler ma said that. Zhihao opened his eyes and walked out of the carriage, Butler ma left the carriage to the bell boy to park it in the stables, when the clerk saw Zhihao walked outside the carriage, she was shocked, how handsome can a guy be! she fought the urge of returning the gold coins and talk to Zhihao, although she''s a beauty, a Young master wont have any interest in a normal woman like her, so she quickly gave up the thought. pursed her lips, she returned to her desk after leading Butler ma and Zhihao to their rooms. after Butler ma placed all the things in the room, he noticed that Zhihao didnt put down anything, and just remembered, the first time he saw Zhihao, wasn''t carrying anything either, then he spotted the ring in Zhihao''s hand with a Sapphire colored Gem in the middle, ''INTERSPATIAL RING!'' he only thought about it but didnt dare say it out loud. then just accepted that cultivators are really different from normal people. Zhihao noticed it and arched his lips slightly, this guy, i know what to gift to him on his first pay. then Zhihao said : Butler Ma lets go to the auction house now,. Butler Ma : "auction house? Young master are you selling something or buying? " Zhihao smiled and said "Selling" Butler Ma quickly replied :"Young master, wait for me, i`ll ask around , since its also my first time coming here." Zhihao nodded. then Butler Ma quickly ran outside and asked around. after a few minutes, butler Ma came back and said :"Young master Luckily for us behind this Hotel is the biggest auction house in the city, its called Valder Trading Auction house." Zhihao nodded and said :"Lets go" butler Ma was going to fetch the carriage but Zhihao stopped him : " isn''t it just behind the Hotel? lets just walk it would be troublesome for you, lets go." Butler Ma opened his eyes, as this Young Master, who should be arrogant, is a total opposite of all the Young cultivators that he has ever seen, he felt warm in his heart, he''s not treating him as a servant, but a butler with feelings, ''i`ll serve him properly, and wont doubt anything ever again!!'' Without knowing zhihao got himself a Braindead fan.. (hohoho our stupid MC has good charms no?) after a few minutes of walking they reached the entrance of the Auction house, when they tried to enter. they we''re blocked instantly by the guard that said : "Only influencial people can go inside! you dont even have a carriage but wishes to go inside?" after saying that the guard immediately released his aura, Earth Establishment realm! first Stage! in Zhihao''s clan Earth Establishment realm was their strongest, but here its merely a guard! how fearsome. Zhihao knowing that he cant talk muscle brained people he just backed out and asked butler ma :"Where''s the 2nd biggest auction house in this city?" the guard sneered and walked back to his post while saying "Bumpkin!" Zhihao glared and withdrew a Bone shattering pill and threw it to the guard, the guard with keen sense felt it and blocked with his arm, focused all his cultivation there, but suddenly it went limp! all the bones in his right arm shattered instantly, Zhihao Exclaimed :"Arrogant, you just cant offend anyone you like, think before you act, or do you want me to make you a vegetable Earth Establishment Realm cultivator!" although lack of killing intent, the guard was scared as he already knew for a fact that its not a threat, its the real deal, but before he could say anything a figure descended from the balcony of the auction house The figure spoke : "Dear young master,i apologize for the rudeness of our guards, we shall punish him afterwards, though i doubt it that the punishment young master has given would already be enough." yet again its another beauty, and with great figure, slightly above Ning''er (ok guys, just tell me if you`d like to add harem in this novel, this young master of yours will do it), "I am Zhao Xiyi." the woman said (she''s 15 years old btw). Zhihao was only mesmerized for a second before calmly talked to Butler Ma :"Butler Ma, lets go," but before they could step back, Zhao Xiyi blocked their path with a smile then said :"Young master, please dont rush, I am the daughter of Valder Trading City''s patriarch, please be kind as to show me some face, i`d like to ask, if young master is here to purchase? i`ll give you a free VIP lounge as a gift for the trouble that my guards has inconvenienced you, i know that 1000gold would be too little as a compensation but, nothing harmed you right? please please? give me a little bit of face, wouldn''t hurt right?" Xiyi Acted so cute. Zhihao already calmed down then said, : "Ok, but i am here to sell some pills, not purchase, but it will depend on the items." then he threw another pill to the guard. The guard wanted to dodge but he saw Xiyi''s ( death glare!! WOOO! ) glare, and didnt dare dodge, as he tried to catch it with the other hand, if it hit any other part, he would be dead for sure, he''d rather have two disabled arm than a arm and leg disabled. after catching it, he was prepared for his arm to go numb, but then it didnt. he looked at Zhihao in bewilderment. Zhihao immediately said :"Swallow it stupid" before walking forward", the guard was hesitating again, but he saw the cute miss Xiyi (Death Glaring him to death) staring at him, then he swallowed it. after a few second, he was shocked, because, the arm that has shattered bones, immediately connected as if everything was a dream. The immediately stood up and ran in front of Zhihao then he kowtowed three times and said :"Thank you for showing kindness young master! this one showed enmity, but young master repaid it with kind! this lowly one apologize sincerely and thanked young master for this magnanimity that you showed" Seeing this Xiyu was shocked, pills that can shatter then pills that can restore what was shattered! amazing! Xiyu then Said : "Young master, if you are gonna sell something, we should go to the Appraiser" Zhihao nodded then followed Xiyu, a few seconds of walking, Zhihao saw a booth, there was an old man, and that old man slowly said :"Young Miss Xiyu, are you finally willing to introduce a husband? looks fine to me, seeing you get married would be a blessing in my life" After hearing that Xiyu blushed a little then coughed :"cough, this is a client, our guard mistreated, so i am only compensating him with free VIP lounge, but he is here to sell, so i took him straight to you first before i lead him to the room," the old man sighed and said : "so its like that then, Young master please hand to me what you would like to appraise" after saying she waited. Zhihao immediately took out 3 bottles with 3 different pills inside 10 pieces each. Zhihao said : "that''s 10 pills per bottle, 3 different sets, the black one is Bone Shattering Pill, the yellow one is Shattered medicine pill, while the white one is Sacred origin pill. the yellow and black ones, Miss Xiyu here already had seen its effects, but the white one she hadn''t seen it, its a type of pill that can heal any types of wound, so long as there is still a breathe remaining in a person." the Old man was shocked then he snorted, this brat is too arrogant! hmmp! such weird names for pill i havent even heard of, and even claiming one is a sacred medicine, who''d believe that!, but after he opened the cap on the bottles the aroma immediately assaulted his nose! he was shocked and got really nervous, this type of smell is a first time for him, its too fragrant not too strong but you can still smell it, as he check the pill he trembled extremely! he exclaimed :"Thi! D! d! diz, THIS!" only the word D was heard from him! Chapter 16 Grade 10 pills! Attracting attention in all 3 kingdoms! the old man, stuttered, seeing such pills, he could even die satisfied right now, then the look he gave Zhihao changed, and immediately, he apologized : "Young Master! forgive this old bone, showing rude behavior in front of you, i deserve death! " When Xiyu heard it, she was shocked, this guy a Sky establishment realm, apologizing to a young man, that they dont even know their cultivation, she looked at the young man and the fat guy besides him,. they are both still calm, then Zhihao said :"Just appraise it, i need to get back to my clan after selling this pills." the old man appraised the items then got shocked even more, he thought that it was only 5th grade or 6th grade pills! but the extremely good state of the pills, after a closer look he can see a few incribe marks, that only in legends exists, then the man''s eyes almost turned all white! These are grade 10 Pills! genuine grade 10 pills! there haven''t been a grade 10 pills for a thousands of years! and in his life he thought he wouldn''t see any grade 6 and above pills, but now, he is witnessing the birth of grade 10 pills. tried to calm himself and said. : "Young master, these pills are genuine grade 10 pills!, our auction house is honored to have this pill young master" Zhihao then nodded then looked at Zhao Xiyu and asked :"Miss Xiyu can we go to the room now, and i wish for the auction to start as soon as possible" Zhao Xiyu was still shocked with the grade 10 pill, but started to calm down when she heard Zhihao spoke, then she noddedto zhihao, and said :"Young master, please lead the way, as i`ll guide you to your room" When the old man saw that Zhihao is walking away, he sent sound transmission to Xiyu then said :"Young miss, whatever happens, do not provoke them, i suspect they might be from the sacred grounds! the sacred grounds from the myths! we havent seen a sight of them for hundreds of years, but they are the figures that are guarding our Gailea continent, preventing the Demon beasts, and devil races from entering the humanity''s last continent, if we provoke them, we, no, not even the 3 kingdoms will survive, did you see the guy following that young man, i couldn''t even notice his realm, i thought he was a normal human at first, but his reaction after seeing the 10th grade pill, was still calm as if he has already seen it so many times, i think that butler is a Heavenly Establishment cultivator. the 5 great sacred grounds are not to be trifled with please be caution Young Miss" then as he was still speaking, Zhihao looked at him ''I Think i forgot some, nevermind after i remember it, i`ll tell miss Xiyu about it'' then he smiled at the old man followed by Butler Ma''s look, he looked at the old man as if he dont know what happened, but he smiled at the old man, a smile coming from a good person is charming as it dont have any other intentions but just to smile. then both Zhihao and Butler Ma walked to the VIP lounge. this made the Old man made his back covered with sweat, to normal person those smiles we''re meant nothing, but to a cultivator(Specially cultivator that has wild imaginations) it was likely the same as a death god is smiling at him, wrong move and you die. he sent a last Sound transmission to Xiyu : "Miss, they have detected my sound transmission, this would be my last message for today" Old man trembled after saying it, then his knee''s went numb, he stumbled on the floor with tears in his eyes, and a wet underwear. (Seriously, why even make your imaginations run wild). Miss Xiyu was shocked as she looked back and saw that the Old man was on the floor, and there was a puddle on the floor under the old man, the old man was in a kowtowing position, while Xiyu can clearly see the wetness behind his back. although Xiyu is a cheerful type woman, she is also intelligent, ''she figured out, that these people are not to be messed with, our Valders Trading City''s fate is in my hands now!'' (i dont know why, but i found them all weird.. seriously.) after Arriving at the VIP lounge, Xiyu stared at the auctioneer to start the auction, the auctioneer was shocked, only 1/2 of the stadium was filled, why start already. but he could only think it, as it was an order from the Young miss, then Zhihao noticed that it was about to start, with only half the auction hall filled, would he even sell his pills to good price if there were only this few people, then he quickly glanced at Xiyu, this made xiyu nervous, but still kept her calm, Zhihao said : "should we wait for more people? you can also invite all the VIP''s you know i can wait until tomorrow. oh and also contact alchemy guilds and such, this would be a rare occassion, so i`d like more people to come, just set the deadline tomorrow before evening, he got up then said :"Butler Ma, Lets go, we should rest for now". Butler Ma immediately replied :"Yes young master" after that, they both walked down, then Zhihao said :"Ahh yes i still have alot more of this pills, so just tell me if you need more." after saying those words, Zhihao left, Zhao Xuyi stared dumbfounded at the vanishing silhouettes of the two, then she immediately went to his father''s office, to tell the events that happened. After Xiyu went to the office, he saw the old man and her father talking, she already knew what happened, the old man told her father the story on the appraisal. After Xiyu had entered, the Old man noticed it, he smiled sadly at the young miss then said, :"Young miss, what happen? did we somehow offended them?" Xiyu immediately replied saying : "No old man Xue, they left me some words, he is willing to delay the auction, and we''re free to invite all influential people that we know of, i think, although he doesn''t show it, he wants to earn big with this pills, and with this we can gain a wide range of popularity." Zhao Yan (Father of Xiyu) said : "Yes, i also noticed that, we should send all the invitation we can muster, write the invitation now old man xue!, tell them they would miss the opportunity of a grade 10 Alchemist pills if they cant arrive fast! and also write, that only cultivation stones are able to buy this pills!, no matter how much gold, it would be invalid! or they can trade with our auction house half the price! 2000gold for 1 low cultivation stone! they should exchange all the assets they need, before coming tomorrow. the deadline of arriving is before evening comes! it will start immediately with or without them!" Old man Xue immediately replied : "Yes Patriarch, i shall go now" Zhao Yan nodded then looked at Xiyu and said :"Xiyu! hire as many possible builders!, say that we''re going to make our auction house 10times bigger! they will be paid 3 golds for a day, but they needed to finish rebuilding the auction house before tomorrow evening!." Xiyu immediately replied :"Yes father" _______________________________________________________________________________ After the Old man Xue received his order, he immediately hard 1000 writers to write 10 letters each, in just 25 minutes, 10,000 letters was produced instantly. after paying the writers 30silvers each, he ordered 5000 riders to deliver the message as fast as possible, they would be paid 1 gold each!, this type of investment was huge, but the profit of selling the pills are more. if they could get atleast one of this, they would instantly recover everything they had spent specially if they receive a pill from him, it would be auctioned after 6 months, the profit would be unmeasurable by then. after 3 hours only the borders was left unnoticed with this, like his home town, that took 2 day''s journey(When calmly riding a horse,( but takes 12hrs if rushed by horse ). in just 6 hours the almost all the inhabitants of the three kingdom was notified, all prepared Cultivation stones, and set out immediately to Valder''s trading City! (hey special mention : ContesaRubia your Valder''s city is popular now). Chapter 17 Tides of nobles, and the start of the Auction Just after the notice has been delivered, almost all the nobles sent deligates, even lords and kings are going, if you looked closer, there was not even a carriage to be seen, they are riding their horse! with just people chasing after them!, in the birds'' eye view, it would''ve looked like a strange sandstorm is heading into the Valder Trading City. Zhihao woke up as he heard noises of hammering and he looked outside and saw so many people carrying woods, mixing cement, etc. after looking at them he saw BUILDING PERMIT! Permit # 09284903316 Valder Trading City''s Auction house For complaint please proceed to the City Municipal for a report. (Which is the Valder Trading City''s Auction house Owner by the way) Zhihao became mesmerized! isnt this the same thing that was always posted outside buildings that he was working with, in his previous life? then he smiled and started remembering the pleasant past life he had, after just 3 seconds, he frowned, working as a laborer isn''t a fun and exciting memory, its full of hardship and struggles! (Well sorry guys, seriously, this MC , is really Stupid) He took a stroll within the Valder trading company, butler Ma lead the way inside, as they had alot of things for sale, its like a market inside the building. there are swords, blades, bows, scrolls, etc... as he was strolling inside the company, Zhihao found a current even happening, with that he walked towards the event, he haven''t experienced much of this world, in other words he is still pure and innocent, as he got closer a guy spoke in the middle. Shu Mu : "Everyone! this event is to see who owns the greatest sword in the town, this event was started because, alot of noble men had came, and we''d like to hold the event until the Auction house finished its construction. we''ll be rewarding a sword cultivation scroll called ''Heavenly sword draw'' this is a ''Rare'' grade skilll and could withstand a duel with ''Epic'' grade skills!, if there is anyone interested, come and let me take a look! i am about to break through to 9th grade weapons craftsman!" after hearing this, Zhihao smirked as he drew the sword from the inventory.

Stength : 12 Agility : 19 Bonus Options : gives a shield that absorbs 5% of the damage taken. Zhihao smiled as he walked forward and handed the sword to Shu Mu. then he said :"I`m Participating, this is a unique 9th level sword". all the observers and people that want to participate was shocked. this guy, atleast he should wait for others to boast for a bit, why''d he have to take out a treasure! Shu Mu trembled as he heard this, but there are alot of nobles, so witnessing this is simple, and he thought it was just a joke to test his ability, but as soon as he saw the sword, he sighed and said : "A genuine 9th level sword with unique grade!" is there anyone else there that wants to challenge and bring a more formidable sword for me to check?" Nobody responded, Shu Mu sighed, this event was meant to stall for a little bit of time until the construction has finished. but this young man seems to want and destroy it, he smiled and handed the reward as promised :"Young master this is the ''Heavenly sword flash'' as promised." Zhihao received it and place it in his spatial ring, then the a noise was herd! *Ding!* =Congratulations host for acquiring a broken cultivation skill ''Heavenly Sword Flash'', Heavenly Sword Flash -Heavenly grade (Broken) current grade : Rare -withdrawing a sword in its sheath will activate this skill effect for 1second, -Skill''s Effect : Increases agility by 4,000 (Broken state :800) -Fixing the skill will require 250 points.

Butler Mu nodded and replied : "Yes young master", Mu Dong pondered for a bit as he still dont know the name of this young master of his. then he shook his head as he went inside, Butler mu was greeted by the Guard that they first met as he let him in, many took envy but nobody said a word, everyone here''s a noble, some are even kings and lords, but they still need to line up, if that guy went inside, that just means he has higher rank than even those of the king. after Zhihao saw that butler Mu has entered, he continued what he was doing before. he asked the system ''equipped both items and let the effect activate too'' *Ding!* =Responding to host''s orders...

Zhihao smiled, then proceeded to enter the auction house. as he walked in the guard immediately smiled and led the way. Zhao Xiyu was on the hall, when he saw Zhihao, she immediately approached and said : "Young master, there is a special quarters just for you and will only be used by you for the rest of this Auction is alive! i specially requested for it, and father immediately approved." Zhao Xiyu was cheerful as she actually benefitted alot by stopping Zhihao from leaving yesterday! Zhihao smiled and followed Xiyu from behind. the place Xiyu took Zhihao was in the middle of the auction hall! not just middle in the ground! its sticking out! there is a bridge connecting that room and the main body of the auction hell, Zhihao was speechless, : ''they seriously took their time with this'' when Zhihao arrived at the entrance of the bridge, Butler Ma was already waiting, then Butler Ma gave way and followed behind Zhihao and Xuyi, for all Butler Ma knows Xuyi can be one of his master''s Maid, Concubine, Mistress, or even the wife, as such he didnt dare give any disrespect as he followed the both of them silently. After entering the Room, he was shocked as the room was a 1 way mirror room! he can see everything happening outside, but others cant see him! a special way to mystify the occupant of the room! before he can seat, zhihao exclaimed softly : "Ahh! Young Master! i`d like to inform you that we wont be getting anything from the items that you wish to auction, as such all the cultivation stones would be given to you without any decrease!, we would only like it if you make our auction hall as one of the auctions you would be willing to sell your items too, we only hope for this cooperation! please!" Xuyi bowed as she sincerely asked, just the fame of the items Zhihao is selling would bring huge wealth to the auction house, and might even turn the Valders Trading City, into a Valders Imperial King! though it would only happen after atleast 50 years. minimum.. Zhihao smiled then handed a 5 bottles of each pills he had, to Xiyu, then gave Xiyu 1 bottle of each pills he had, then said, " you can keep the 3 bottles, then auction the 15 bottles and the 3 bottles that was appraised by the Appraiser," Then a man entered the stage and looked at the Room that was madewith mirror and nodded, it was Zhao Yan, Xiyu''s father and patriarch of the Valder Trading City. after that Zhao yan looked at the crowd as he really cant see anything inside the mirrored room, then said : we''ll only, only Auction! 3 types of pill today, then Zhao yan stopped, Xiyu contacted Zhao yan with sound transmission stone, informing Zhao Yan that 18 bottles of pill will be sold, and that Zhihao gave her3 pill bottle, containing 30pcs of pills." Zhao Yan became shocked, and happy at the same time, his daughter received 3 pills, which means Zhihao placed Xiyu somewhere in his mind, Zhao Yan smiled as he said :" Ladies and Gentlemen, the auction is about to begin!, we will be selling pills by a set of 3 pieces of pill for the first round! they are the three most treasured products our Valder Trading Auction has held for all of its life!" "This Black pill! is a 10 star pill! Shattering Bone Pill! as the name sounds, it will shatter any bones of the person who drank it, or! if thrown will shatter the part where it hits! the area of effect is measured as 12 inch from the spot that was hit! Cultivation of Sky Establishment and below would immediately shatter within 2 seconds! NO LIMITS 1st realm or 10th realm of Sky Establishment will have their bones immediately shattered!" "This yellow pill is Shattered Medicinal pill, It can heal any cultivator''s bones! no matter their injuries within the bones will heal instantly!, both this pills had been seen first hand by my daughter and the guard that was rude to the one that is selling this pill!" (LOL! did they have to narrate it fully? HAHAHAHA thats weird, seriously this Valder Trading Company people,) "And lastly this lustrous white pill!, is a sacred medicine! it can heal anything so long as a person has a breath left within his life!, sadly, this Sacred medicinal pill can only be consumed once!, the second time will yield no effect!" Chapter 19 Rich, Richer, and Power up! After hearing that it was a one time use medical Pill, they all got shocked, as if it wasn''t good at all, but then they immediately realized something. What if they are in a brink of death, their most powerful warriors are in the deaths door, what would happen if all their pills for medication are in-effective against the illness or a close to death states they would be in the future if it ever happened, wouldn''t having a final trump card be able to solve that problem? as easy as if nothing happened? although its a one time use pill, Its like getting a second life! with cultivation intact! With that thinking they waited for Zhao Yan to finish speaking, and start the bidding war. all the rich cultivators trembled with excitement as they waited for the signal to start a war, every second feels like a day passing by! Zhao Yan noticed everyone''s excitement and thrill, he purposely delayed the announcement of the bid so to bring this tension within the auction hall, he sighed as if, ''well if its a treasure anyone would surely rush madly with it'' then he spoke. Zhao Yan : the bidding will start! and the starting price is NONE! start! Immediately after Zhao Yan''s words, the expected uproar came ! Cultivator 1 : "10 Low level cultivation stones" (i`ll shorten this words to Low level stones) Cultivator 9 : "15 Low level stones!" Random 1 : "40 Low level stones!" Random 3 : "50!" then galantly looking guy with crown in his head said : "3 Mid level stones!" another galantly looking dude said : "i hope you guys can give me face, as i would welcome all of you here in my kingdom as a special guest and we can have a celebration for 1 whole week without stopping! 5 mid level stones!" then a third one spoke : "fuck your face, i`d rather go to war than lose this pill to you! 6 Mid level Stones!* The first Auction finished with a wooping 9Mid level stones and 80pieces Low level stones! the second one finished with 7 Mid level stones and 43 pcs of Low level stones! third.... fourth.... fifth... 180th with 1 Mid level stone and 99pcs of low level stone... they got sucked dried, wealth accumulated for hundreds of years gone, but they didnt feel that they missed anything, all of the people that got a couple more than what they needed was excited as well!, if you think about it, its only three kingdoms here gathered! there would be more! and definitely! they can earn more if they sold the extra pills they had, thinking about this, everyone got excited and immediately left, without even thinking of saying goodbye to friends they havent met for more than 30 years, the closest ones only smiled at each other as they parted ways. 95% of the people that left only had enough money for a meal in their journey back, specially the kings of the three kingdom, they dried their pockets to get as much cards as possible if a war broke out with their kingdom, they wont sell it and just keep it for themselves. money can be earned back, but lives of the guardians of the empire wont, it takes 60years to nourish and train cultivators to sky realm, becoming a kingdom''s pillars. if their guardian beasts can take one in critical moments, it can turn the tides! a 10 star graded pill can change outcomes of war!. Zhihao had his eyes wide opened the whole time, blinking occasionally, Xiyu handed to Butler Ma a Spatial ring as both of them are facing Zhihao''s back, they couldn''t see his reaction, and only think that Zhihao is so used to earning this kinds of money thats why he didnt have any reaction at all, they didnt expect that Zhihao as someone that havent even received a single Mid level cultivation stones before, after 5 hours, Butler Ma was getting tired standing behind Zhihao, and cough silently, that silent cough, woke Zhihao''s daydreaming yet again, as Zhihao calmed down, he looked at Butler Ma, then Butler Ma handed the Interspatial Ring, Containing 1294 Mid level stones, and 4599 Low level Stones, *Ding!* =Host has completed the quest -Due to Hosts'' excessive gains the quest initiated a self distribution.

Low level stone = 10points! the system even added the mid level stones! Zhihao spoke in his thoughts ''System i`d like to buy items! you should recommend me some!'' *Ding!* =Host has accumulated alot of points thus indeed need to buy, to decrease the cache load from my system. -Recommended buying : -Weapons -Cultivation Methods -Cultivation skills -Cultivation methods that can be shared -Equipments Zhihao pondered then said '' lets go with lining'' Weapons first! Immediately a window appeared in front of Zhihao as he looked, he forgot something! Butler ma is behind him! Zhihao transfered all the items within the spatial ring that Xiyu give him to his, then handed the Spatial Ring back to butler ma, Zhihao left 10 Mid level stones, and 500 low level stones. Zhihao : "Butler Ma, there are 10 mid level stones, and 500 low level stones inside that ring, trade 250 stones for gold, just take 900 gold coins per low level stones, it should be enough, and butler ma, 1 mid stone = 100 low level stones, dont forget, you can keep those 10 pieces of mid level stones. buy everything we need in 2 and a half month you will be living outside Celestial Palace academy, its near the Eternal Blood Imperial Kingdom, you should buy a mansion there and hire some people to keep it clean and guard the place. Butler Ma was shocked! this generosity is beyond virtue! its saintly!, the young master that he is following, is a good one indeed, he sighed and nodded , then he remembered something, "Young master, i have a wife and two daughters, would it be okay if i also hired them? they are good at household works too!" Zhihao smiled and looked at Butler Ma, :"Butler ma, do you want your children to be a cultivator? or do you want them to lead a good normal life? ask them that, if they want a good normal life, bring them to a normal academy in the imperial palace, i`ll support them, but i think i dont need to, your salary for 1 year, i`ll give it to you, take this 100 Low level stones, and 2 Mid level stones, i think they wouldn''t need to work for their entire life just with a year''s worth of your salary Butler Ma." Butler Ma cried, and kneeled, he then kowtowed 10 times, while continuesly saying :"Thank you young master, you`ve changed our lives, thank you so much!" Zhihao Smiled as he said : "Go on, buy yourself a home close to the mansion, or just live within the mansion until i arrive, atleast that way you can focus on keeping your family and work at the same time, that would be the best, and just remember to teach them how to be like you, good karma is good, but bad karma(Is a bitch) is not." Butler Ma nodded then bowed :" I shall get going now Young Master, i`ll prepare all the things you need," Zhihao smiled then said, Butler Ma, "we part here. i shall see you in Eternal Blood Imperial Kingdom," Butler Ma nodded and walked out. good bye and farewell for now(Ahh i have this smile now ;) haha ) Zhihao continued to browse the weapon store, he bought alot of things, specially thinking that he could also sell them for a hefty price, when the quest issues another one later, his favorite color was red so he bought some things specially for him, then he went for cultivation skills, equipment, cultivation method that can be shared, and another 3 sets of cultivation method. Zhihao immediately equipped his new items!

Zhao Yan saw his daughter''s sadness and sighed, then he patted Zhao Xiyu''s back as they went inside. Zhihao smiled then bought a carriage back home! then he heard the system. "Ding!" =host has already advanced to mid early level the system needs to upgrade and prepare for the 2nd level, additional functions and storage will expand after this update! = I will see you again host after you have reached Heavenly Establishment Realm Farewell for now. _________________________________________________________________________________ Somewhere farfar away! in a distant place from a different light novel, someone roared! Flame Emperor Sovereign : "WHERE ARE MY BELOVED SET! WHO STOLE IT! WHERE! FIND IT! SEARCH THE INFERNAL REALM! YOU MUST FIND IT! ?NOTIFY ALL THE MAJOR POWERS OF THIS WORLD! SUMMON ALL OF THEM AND HAVE THEM SEARCH FOR MY SET!!!!!" The end '' Chapter 21 Returning home and getting some night action! After hearing the notification, Zhihao was stunned, "NO SYSTEM?! WHY!! YOU MADE ME RELY ON YOU SO MUCH THEN LEAVE ME ALONE! Heavenly Establishment realm! thats still too far! WHY!! WHY''D YOU LEAVE WITHOUT WARNING! NOOOO" Zhihao became dazed and couldn''t even cultivate after 2days in a daze at the carriage, Zhihao finally saw the Black wind county,his mood gradually calmed down and brightened, as he can finally see his wife and parents again. after entering the clan gate he witnessed something. all clan members are on their arms and feet in the ground! he even saw Ling Wentian and his clan members within the same position as his clan mates, and even Shen Ming! ''What happened HERE!'' he thought it immediately and saw a man flying in the sky!! Heavenly Establishment Realm! it was staring at them, then Zhihao saw Ning''er on the floor with lots of blood flowing out! There we''re atleast 20 people in the sky, looking down like they are looking at ants, although Ning''er is beautiful, she''s not in a level where they''d go crazy over her, more over, in their sect, they dont lack faces like this, even more outstanding ones are present. Just as Zhihao Arrived, they already noticedit, then just looked at the Old man. the Old man Snickered. The old man in the sky said : "Hoo, a new one, are you the one that gave that black and white pill to this lady? if i didnt noti..." just before the old man was about to finish, Zhihao who was in the gate vanished before his eyes, and found him near the dying girl. just when he was about to talk, he saw Zhihao pull out a white colored pill and directly inserted it in Ning''er''s lips, the Old man saw, all the wounds in Ning''er''s body, vanishing. he extended his spirit sense to check the internet organs, but was shocked beyond belief! all the crumbling organs healed in a way that visible eyes can see! not even a single scar was left on her body, the old man thought of two words and a single sect! the Old man said : " hahaha Sacred Pill! look at you from the Alchemist guild, being so stingy to the sacred grounds, but raining your pills on this mortal world, have you know no shame kid? your pat..." (YEah! Sentence smacking MC! he always cut people half way!) as he was about to finish speaking Ning''er woke up, then Zhihao smiled as he asked :"Who did this to you?" Ning''er Spoke : "No! you cant! they are too powerful!. there are 19 Heavenly establishment realm warriors and 1 Divine Origin realm with them, that old man only looked at me and i immediately turned li...." (Yeah even the wife wasn''t spared) Zhihao withdrawn his sword and said : "Heavenly Flash draw!" the 19 people smiled and sneered, this elementary realm kid is trying to start something with them? who are they? even Heaven Establishment realm experts dont dare to attack them, yet this kid dared. but as this thought was done, they saw two falling silhouettes from the sky, it was the Heavenly Establishment Old man. Zhihao immediately shouted : "Who did it! who gave you the right to bully Zhong, Ling and Shen clan!" These words echoed in their ears, but they were still calm. they also could do what when the old man is unprepared, Ning''er was shocked, tears went down her eyes as she hugged back Zhihao, Zhihao calmed down a bit as he looked at the 19 people in the sky left. one of the 19 smiled and said, "I Am Sun Qian kun, 11th Young Master of Eternal Blaze Sacred ground!" then continued "how dare you kill one of my men? do you think you can go against me? dare to go against our sacred ground? hahaha, even if your whole alchemist guild joins, they wont be enough, and now you are being arrogant in front of this young lord of yours, if only you bunch of crafting people aren''t useful to us, we would''ve already dispersed your grounds!" Zhihao was dazed, since when did he became an alchemist member?, then he shook his head as he said :"Are you the one that did this to my wife? why?" Sun Qian Kun : "Yes, i did? what about it?" Zhihao sighed in relief, atleast he didnt need to search 1 by 1, then he calmly said : "You can either cripple your cultivation or leave your useless life as a fertilizer in this land" After saying that Zhihao held his hand in his sword hilt then drew, but the 18 other heavenly established realm men quickly reacted just when Zhihao was only placing his hand in the hilt. The 18 of them immediately roared :"Iron TortoiseDefensive Formation!" after shouting, a shell like formation appeared out of nowhere that shocked Zhihao, but still, he drew his sword, and 10 flashes appeared within 1 second! when the 8th Flash hit the defensive formation, the formation crumbled and sharps we''re thrown everywhere, after witnessing the power of Zhihao, all of them even Sun Qian Kun was shocked and immediately gathered all the profound spirits in their body to defend the last two. after the 10th flash, 1 of them 10 fell down from the sky. yes, he died. Zhihao said :"18 left!, cripple yourself, or leave your lives in this land!" he was calm, but killing intent are slowly forming within Zhihao, slowly molding within his body, the dear, pure and innocent MC finally changed, evolving from a boy into a man of this world!. Sun Qian Kun sighed, but then attacked : [Dragon''s Descending Tail]! the spear in his hand immediately received a powerful boost, Sun Qian Kun Threw the spear to Zhihao, Directly targeting his heart. Zhihao Smiled as he Activated his defensive skill [Thunder Iron body] He reached his palm in a defending position (Do you know Iron man?) to block the spear, but when the spear appeared, it felt like he was being pierced in his hand by a needle, like the one he felt when selling one bag ofblood on the hispital in his previous left. Then he noticed a number in the upper right corner of his eye. there was a number! *-21HP!* Zhihao Lv :182 HP : 72624 SP : 32850 Chapter 22 Zhihao..... Author''s note :Chapter 21 is updated! read it''s full version first before this, dont rush! -21HP! Sun Qian Kun stared at his spear that is in the hands of Zhihao who seemed like it caught a fly, he started to sweat immediately, as he rushed in front of Zhihao. the rest of the 17 all rushed together behind Sun Qian Kun, if they cant protect their master, they would be killed by the patriarch of the Eternal Blaze Sacred ground. hiding would be impossible as the patriarch has strong Spirit Sensor. so atleast if they died protecting Sun Qian Kun, their family might be spared, and bought to the mortal realm. Zhihao was dazed but when he saw Sun Qian kun he immediately stood up! the way Zhihao saw it. Sun Qian Kun casually threw the spear, but still dealth damage. he prepared himself, for the next attack. but then he was shocked. Sun Qian kun after rushing madly with all of his strength, stopped infront of Zhihao and immediately bowed. then he said : "Young master, forgive this ignorant kid for being too willful! please i beg for mercy! please spare this little life of mine! if you can spare me, we can make all sorts of promise, we''ll take care of this town and even nurture them! please, we''ll take care of them for thousands of years! please young master be magnanimous just this once and forgive this ant for showing disrespect" (pssh! coward bitch) Seeing their master begged, all the 17 of them also kneeled and said with unison : "We beg young master''s forgiveness" Zhihao was shocked! his eyes was opened wide as he didnt predict the other side to beg for mercy right after throwing the spear. Seing Zhihao only opened his eyes, Sun Qian kun sweated! as he was in a perilous position, his image of Zhihao''s stare was a glare from the death god!. he immediately spoke again to calm this god of calamity infront of him. Sun Qian kun : "Young master! as a cultivator, you are always away! this time, you`ve arrived earlier and manage to save them all! but if another incident occured like this and you are in a far away place! what would''ve happened will not be simple injury!, Young master if you can Pardon this fault of ours, i could protect this place in your stead!." Zhihao was shocked, and realized that what this guy said is true!, then he spoke. :"Then this spear..." Sun Qian Kun sweated. then he replied immediately before Zhihao could finish his sentense. : "Young master! that spear was meant as a compensation! it is my most treasured weapon! please accept it!" Zhihao was shocked again, he was gonna say ''then this spear, you can take it back now'' then after that he was gonna ask, how he can protect the town. well free gifts are free gifts. he checked the spear''s stats Appraisal : Red Steel treasured spear Item Level : 4th level Grade : Epic Damage : 659 - 1,180 Options granted : When Piercing gives additional 35% Damage Strength : 318 Agility : 112 Stamina : 215 Bonus Option : Fire skill increases damage dealt by 5%. Zhihao exclaimed he was holding Divine grade items of 2nd level, so its a first he some a 4th level one. then he said in a low voice :"ohh, as a trash its fairly good" Sun Qian Kun and the rest trembled, although its sound is pretty low, as a cultivator, they had a pretty sensetive hearing, after hearing that their master''s treasured weapon was a trash to someone else'', they shook, but then, they looked at the young man infront of them, Robe, Bracer, Belt, Shoes, Sheat, even the sword''s hilt, necklace and rings,... all of them looked sacred, they we''re even thinking that its grade must be exponentially good(they we''re correct), and so they lowered they head and sighed again. then Zhihao Said, : "So how can we contact you if i`m leaving?" Sun Qian Kun immediately took something out of his spatial ring then said : " Young master, this are my blood stones, if you crush this, i`ll immediately know that you need me, i`ll immediately come here and leave 4 Heavenly Establishment realm warriors. if there are problem they can contact me and i can bring more reinforcement faster that way!" he immediate followed up because Zhihao might misunderstood that he is only passing his responsibility to his subordinates. Zhihao nodded then said :" ok, leave 4 of your warriors, i`ll leave after 2months" then he went to his father and handed the spear and 2000pcs of low level stones, 5pieces of mid level stones, then he asked :" Father why are Ling and Shen clan here?" Zhong Ru Feng smiled as the kid he had doted upon, became a powerful warrior, but as he can see, he is only at elementary realm, how can he become so strong? he just smiled as if he''s wondering nothing, because it is his son, what does it have to do with him, the more powerful his son is, the better! then he spoke :" When they heard we''re in a peril, they immediately rushed here, it was only a single heavenly establishment realm cultivator before, the old man you had killed. so we could atleast delay him a bit, when Ling and Shen clan heard that we''re fighting with some invaders, they immediately rushed forward, we had forced him out little by little, but then 19 warriors descended from the sky, and laughed at the old man because he was getting pushed by 3 Earth realm establishment and alot of Transcended mortal realms small fry. we felt despair then, Ning''er came forward and wanted to give all the Yin and Yang willow pill to the old man, but the old man was humiliated by us, he stared at Ning''er, then afterwards Ning''er fell down!, Shen Xiao tried to help her, but when she was close, Xiao''er was blown away, alot of her bones are damaged, being crippled at an early age, it would be hard." Zhihao looked at the Shen and Ling patriarch, he handed 500 low level stones, and 2 mid level stones, and said :"Thank to the both of you two, that delayed the progress here, I''ve avoided a calamity that i wont be able to forget." Ling Wentian sighed then smiled, :"Just take care of my daughter for me and take this things back" he returned the stones together with Shen Ming. Zhihao smiled and said :"Dont worry i still got thousands more of those mid level stones, for the low level ones, it occupies alot of space in my spatial ring so take it " Zhihao smiled as he said it, then he noticed Shen Ming smiling sadly as he took a quick glance at his daughter, who would even marry a crippled woman, only having beautiful face, and body, yet cant move and can only speak. he cant bring out the words to say that Zhihao could take care of Shen Xiao, she''ll only be a burden. Zhihao noticed it, then smiled, he went to Shen Xiao, Shen Xiao was in tears as she smiled towards Zhihao, then said. :"thank you, for taking care of our clan! This one thanks you, young master Zhong" Shen Xiao''s eyes we''re moist as she kept her feelings sealed within her, she understood that loving someone as a cripple would only drag down the progress of the other one. Then Ning''er approached as she said :"then i also like thank you, if you didnt intervene that time, i would''ve died already, thank you so much, would you like to be my family little sister? Ning''er looked at zhihao afterwards waiting for his response, zhihao nodded while smiling (because he is stupid) then looked at Shen Xiao. Shen xiao blushed then nodded her head, even if its only a title she coult be with the one he fell inlove with when they we''re8years old... Then she smile and called out ;"Zhihao...." Chapter 23 Calamity After calling out to Zhihao, she blushed, but still she couldn''t move, then Zhihao looked at her and drew a Shattered Medicinal Pill, he gave directly placed it inside Shen Xiao''s mouth, Shen Xiao smiled and swallowed the pill, then some irritations formed inside her, she felt ants crawling inside her body!, then after a few seconds, she couldn''t feel pain anymore, she slowly stretched her arm, then stood up slowly, she teared up after seeing that all the bones on her body is fixed! After witnessing this, Shen Ming immediately ran and hugged her!, the excitement in his heart was understandable because having a daughter that was crippled a moment ago cured in just a few seconds, was a joy only a loving father can know. Shen Ming looked at Zhihao then calmly said :"Please take care of my daughter for me " Zhihao smiled and said :"yes ," but then he suddenly realized something, ''take care of her daughter? uhh why me?'' he wanted to ask but Ning''er nodded and said :"Leave it to us, i`ll take care of her like a real sister" (Family''s sister means an additional wife, but Zhihao knew nothing) Zhihao was bewildered. how come they are talking about something he couldnt grasped about?, then he looked at Ning''er in puzzlement. but he dont want to ruin this atmosphere and walked to Sun Qian kun. Zhihao said :"Take care of this town for me, i`ll be leaving within 2months," Sun Qian kun immediately nodded, then ordered 5 of his men to stay behind, while they walked back to the sacred ground. Zhihao heard Ning''er talk again. Ning''er : "Would today be fine for you?" She was talking to Shen Xiao Shen Xiao nodded and confirmed :"Yes" she blushed and looked at Zhihao, Shen Ming, and the other patriarch smiled and talked to each other as they left the 3 alone, seeing that the event is already finished, they didnt seem to want the mood of the town and clans men to be down, so they also wanted to celebrate so as to lift this mood up. Zhong Ru Feng ordered everyone to prepare for this afternoon then went back to his quarters to tend to the affairs of the clan. ___________________________________________________________________ Ning''er spoke to Shen Xiao : "let''s go to Hao''er''s chamber, i`ll fix you up for the afternoon" Shen Xiao blushed and nodded like a good little sister then said :"Yes, sister." Ning''er walked away with Shen Xiao, and all the clan''s people left too, leaving all genius Zhihao alone in the middle. he was shocked, as the hero of the day, why was he left alone, he sighed and went to his courtyard to relax for a bit. Ling clan, Shen clan, and Zhong clan''s clansmen are talking while drinking ale, alot of people we''re discussing about today''s event. while the servants of the clan prepared the banquet and etc. the three patriarch are talking with each other, as shen ming sent a clan''s man of his to fetch his wife, Her daughter is going to be married, so Shen Ming thought that if she weren''t here, Shen Ming will suffer alot of torment after coming back. Ruo Lin and Ruo Mei was speaking to each other lively. talking about things related to their son and daughter, and etc. ____________________________________________________________________ After an hour, maids arrived at Zhihao''s courtyard and started to fix him, dressing him elegantly, Zhihao sighed as, just having a banquet, would require him to dress fully. he cant disobey since its his fathers orders, if not, why would the maids even reject the rejection of Zhihao. Zhihao came to the greathall again, and this time it was Shen Xiao fully dressed like, how Ning''er was before, Zhihao was shocked then he looked at Ning''er Besides him then ask :"why is this happening, who''s getting married? " Ning''er Laughed : "aren''t you playing too much innocence if you say that?" Ning''er laughed as she kissed Zhihao''s cheeks. the Wedding ceremony played like what happened between Ning''er and Zhihao, but now its a bit different, as Ning''er was there to help Shen Xiao, The night went beautiful as the full moon showered the ground with its dim light. ____________________________________________________________________ Sun Qian near the Sacred grounds 1km away While Sun Qian was returning to Eternal Blaze Sacred ground, alot of men blocked his path After Seeing this, Sun Qian sweated, these are not humans! DEMONS!! Sun Qian Gritted his teeth, as he said to a subordinate :"CALL FOR REINFORCEMENT NOW!" 1 Subordinate immediately flew so fast, while stretching his sound transmission device, then when he saw that 3 divine Origin realm warriors are following him, and slowly closing the gap between them. he sighed then shouted : "FOR THE HUMAN RACE!" when the subordinates and Sun Qian Kun heard, they all smiled at each other saying :" let''s survive this and drink, brothers!, your family will be taken care of,! in my WORD!" the 11 subordinates smiled, and nodded, their young master is not bad, he''s just too much willful, when the old man contacted the young master, but he only came there to assist, and asked what happen, he wasn''t planning on killing anyone, but just know where the Yin an Yang pill. They all smiled and smiled : "Yes young master!, FOR THE HUMAN RACE!" Sun Qian Smiled and shouted too following his subordinates to war :"FOR THE HUMAN RACE!" (he may be a coward, but that cowardice is only for other humans to see, what benefits would a human fight a human gain, while they are surrounded by Beast kin, and Evil Race) Chapter 24 2v1 WAR of the races! Sun Qian Protected his Subordinates as he fought bravely, although 1/200th are only fighting from the enemies, it was already 100+! in total, the enemies has a great army! Heavenly establishment Realm more than 3500 Divine Origin realm more than 2000 Divine Body realm more than 50 Divine Spirit realm only 1 He was getting played, but he still tried to fight, Sun Qian tried to hold on as long as he can, then he saw 500meters away, the subordinate that he sent out was falling from the sky. Sun Qian smiled softly as he said, to the remaining subordinate 3, "we shall die as part of the human history as the brave vanguard!" The subordinates sighed and smiled, to die was their only choice, they also saw their friend falling from the sky. 10 demons descended from the sky, 2 Divine Body realm, and 8 Divine Origin realm then said :"Hahaha, yeah the vanguards, but who will report it? who''ll write it? and who are the witness? none ? isn''t that sad? for the human race you sacrificed your puny lives but was not accredited, but worry not, the only history of humans after this week, would be ''the race that perished''!" he laughed menacingly Sun Qian Roared and was about to rush forward when, a voice suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Sun Qian, Your subordinates, has sacrificed their lives for you, bring them glory! we shall fight! Eternal Blaze Sacred ground! Our duty has Arrived! Expel the demons! A wave of cultivators arrived, they roared as they answer "Yes Patriarch!" Eternal Blaze Sacred ground : Heavenly establishment Realm more than 800 Divine Origin realm more than 350 Divine Body realm more than 5 Divine Spirit realm only 1 Another Wave arrived as they shouted in unison :"Heavenly Sovereign Sacred Grounds Have Arrived " Heavenly Sovereign sacred ground : Heavenly establishment Realm more than 700 Divine Origin realm more than 480 Divine Body realm more than 8 Divine Spirit realm only 1 then the last wave arrived : "The Monarch of the East Sacred Grounds Have Arrived " Monarch of the East Sacred Grounds : Heavenly establishment Realm more than 280 Divine Origin realm more than 180 Divine Body realm more than 4 Divine Spirit realm only 0 then one of the Divine Body realm spoke to the other patriarch, :"My apologies patriarch Lu, Patriarch Sun, our patriarch is in the other war zone, and instructed us to head here, the Beast Kin had already invaded the North west part of the continent, the other two sacred ground are fighting there, as patriarch was worried, he ordered half of us to be sent here, Patriarchs, let us fight together for the honor of the Human Race. Then in the Patriarchs and Leader shouted together :"For the Human RACE!" The continent of Gailea was always within war''s door, as the continent was actually the last island the human race can enjoy, the Sacred grounds are outside this continent and are preventing Demons race and Beast kin from entering the human continent. the fighting continued but the Human race was in a bad position, they are retreating slowly as they fought with the demons, :"Patriarch of the Eternal and Heavenly Sovereign, please retreat to your sacred ground!, we`ll hold them off for now! Monarch of the East! FORWARD!" Sun Xiong smirked and said :"Old guy, dont make your self look brave, i know you are old but dont hog all the glory! Eternal Blaze! FORWARD!" Lu Xioutan nodded and said :"Ai, ai, this old one shall retire after this war, i need to train my future Inheritor, let us go Heavenly Sovereign! FORWARD!" Sun Xiong fought together with Lu Xioutan to push Mengkou(Demon race Patriarch) back, although mengkou was above them by 2 stages, the two he is fighting now are geniune Spirit realm. he laughed and said :"You two, should seriously take a look at your side, its going to be a 1sided fight if you dont help them no? this novel lord is a single entity, why not help them instead and let 1 take me on?" Mengkou laughed as he told everything to the two. Sun Xiong and Lu Xioutan smirked as they all know to well that either of them can keep fight Mengkou for 1 minute before dying, its good if they both are handling and fightinging Mengkou as atleast they can give balance to the fight. but the reality is sad as well, as their clans men are losing steadily. _______________________________________________________________________ Human Race East war with Demon Race Demon Race : Heavenly establishment Realm more than 750 Divine Origin realm more than 180 Divine Body realm more than 18 Divine Spirit realm only 1 Human Race : Heavenly establishment Realm more than 125 Divine Origin realm87 Divine Body realm more than 3 Divine Spirit realm only 2 Chapter 25 Humanitys Struggle Part 1 West side of Galea continent two forces are fighting out their way for survival! Piercing Sword Sacred Grounds, Frozen Palace Sacred Ground, Monarch of the East Sacred Grounds are struggling with the fight against the Beast Kins!, the Beast Kin''s Dragon race are of one of the highest fighting forces within the beast territory!, Being pushed back by the Beast Kin''s advancing momentum, the human race are retreating Steadily, Although humanity has alot of population, only 20% out of the 100% within the population are Cultivators, but the Beast kin, since birth, has superior strength since birth compared to humans, and some of their races has superior abilities like, Hearing, Sight, Smell, etc. Even Demon Kin felt inferior towards the Beast clan but they disdain them, as they dont look elegant. by their taste, they are just muscles.

Wu Tianwu and Xiao long Smiled, Ying Mai, smiling and joking, was a miracle, all the patriarch tried to woo her before, but end up being a failure, they dont know if she''s encouraging them or just saying it out of whim, but, they sure like to try to woo this frozen fairy again. The three patriarchs smiled and roar! "FORWARD! MEN!, FOR HUMANITY!" after roaring, all the men and women in their back, shouted and advanced, fearless,they charged, knowing that everything, their family, friends, and such would die if they failed to stand their ground and forced the enemy out. the fierce fight started as the world was waiting for the outcome. _______________________________________________________________ Outside Black wind county there are 10 Silhouette a 50 kilometers away, they spoke with each other Divine Body realm 6 Divine Spirit realm 4 a Female spoke :"Hey! are you guys sure that there is a big fluctuation of Spirit here yesterday?" then a male spoke :"Ofcourse, why would we even make something up like that. its not like we would benefit from it" the female voice spoke again :"Hmmp! ok let us go forward" the human continent only have 5 Divine Spirit realm, so im wondering what kind of treasure was that, or if it isn''t atreasure, it would be a powerful human,. i just wish it wouldn''t be an Old monster from the ancient era that decided to stay in the human continent to protect it, if it is, all of us should scatter, but if it''s a treasure, all of us will scatter it ;)" ______________________________________________________________ Meanwhile Black wind county, Zhihao''s chamber, it was almost dawn, when Zhihao woke up, he saw Ning''er staring at the window, Zhihao approached Ning''er and hugged her from behind, by both of them talked for sometime before Zhihao withdrew a set of Equipment and scrolls from his inventory, Frost Queen''s Fairy set (8/8) Frost Queen''s Flexible sword Frost Queen''s Sylph Robe Frost Queen''s Sylph Huasheng Frost Queen''s Heels Frost Queen''s Bracelet Frost Queen''s Necklace Frost Queen''s Ring Frost Queen''s Gloves Combined Emperor''s Set effect and attributes : Item Level : 1st Level Grade : Divine Damage : 4850 - 5488 Defense : 7,232 Option Granted : All frost based skills are boosted 100% Option Granted : Deals additional 100% Water Elemental damage.

Scrolls : Supreme Yin Heavenly frost Cultivation (Cultivation Technique) -All killed Beings'' cultivation would be absorb Glacial storm (Attack Skill) Frost Arrow (Attack Skill) Frost Nova (Attack Skill) Frost Ball (Attack Skill) Ice Wall (Defense skill) Ice Phoenix''s Myriad Light (Movement skill) Ice Phoenix''s Rebirth Cage (Life Preserving Skill) Zhihao gave the set and let Ning''er equipped it, then instructed Ning''er on how to absorb the skills. Ning''er tried the method Zhihao thought her, and immediately, she got shocked!, all the movementsto how to use the skill directly flooded her mind, then she looked at Zhihao in bewilderment, this husband has been getting more and more mysterious as time passes. after that Zhihao Dragged Ning''er out, and Into the mountain, he wanted to see how powerful it was so Zhihao asked :"Ning''er try targeting that mountain far away! use all your skills!" Ning''er saw Zhihao''s Excitement, but she was reluctant to use it, because, she has to do certain movements to use them fast enough. she blushed while thinking it then nodded. seeing Ning''er Nodded he was excited!, then he saw Ning''er was so red! blood might ran out of her face anytime!, then Ning''er moved her hand stretched out with the sword, then shakily draw something in Thin air! it was a character "Bing" , then Followed up by Nova, then She spoke [Frost Nova]! the mountain instantly was splashed by ice, the mountain instantly turned into mount fuji! snow was falling down continuously, After Ning''er saw it, she smiled and got excited, immediately casting Freezing field!then the snowy mountain peak, turned into ice! all the snow turned into Ice and fall from the sky like charm needles dropping, she was having so much fun, but then remembered something, she blushed immediately, as she looked back to Zhihao, seeing this Zhihao laughed, and kissed Ning''er''s forehead, but then, a sudden feeling soar within Ning''er, Her cultivation level is increasing! and so much fast at that! Elementary Realm! Nascent Sprite realm! Body Formation Realm! Spirit Condensation Realm! Transcendent Mortal Realm! and finally it stopped at Earth Establishment realm! 10th stage! Ning''er and Zhihao was shocked and just laughed it out, maybe heaven was being kind to them that night, yes two innocent souls walked out without confirming anything. _______________________________________________ In the mountain the 10 silhouette stopped walking and saw a town, the female one immediately charged her hand with magic power, preparing to use her AoE skill to kill the villagers in the town [Nether void Shattering point]!, but then a powerful aura appeared and was slamming at her and the 9 others, the 4 Divine Spirit realm scattered out but still caught!, they cough out blood then ran farther away, the other 6 then was caught by the first attack, they are now at death''s door, but then another powerful aura appeared it was 10x stronger, the 4 divine spirit realm ran away again as she saw the 6 escorts they bought with them turned into statues, a powerful skill like that would only belong to someone powerful, a Divine Might realm! OR EVEN HIGHER! this thoughts ran straight into the four of them. then the Female spoke out loud :"Senior, thank you for showing mercy on four of us, we shall not move in closer to the human continent, please spare our men." the female looked at the other 3 then nodded, they both separated, the female was going to the Demon Race army, while the other two was going to the beast Kin." in about an hour, the Demon and Beast Kin retreated fast enough, the report they heard could shatter their homes like stepping in on an ant, if they continued to provoke this existence, they would be the one suffering instead. both Race retreated, The human Race, which was on the verge of losing, was shocked!, they we''re down to 1/5 of the current number they had before, while the enemy still got 2/5 of theirs left! even if its both 1/5 the beast kin far outnumbered them by double, which means 2/5 is 4/5 of the human race''s survivor. After Seeing the Beast kin and Demon race retreating with sweats behind their back, the human''s of the sacred ground shouted in celebration for the victory. only Wu Tianwu was pondering, what had happen to them that they would retreat like that. the 5 patriarch looked at each other, then nodded, they wouldn''t chase a retreating enemy, and even if they did, they would only be seeking their own deaths, it has already been 300 years since the last coalition of Demon race and Beast kins attacked together the human race. but still, they all sighed in relief, a victory is a victory, no matter what happened, its none of their business, every day the human race, demon beast, and Beast kin are fighting on the borders of Gailea continent, the Sacred grounds are suffering damage from damage, as it was really an unfavorable condition. Demon Race was born with high magic power, while Beast Kin are born with superior strength, But what do humans have when they we''re born? none, it was a sure conclusion that after a few thousands of years, or even hundred of years. humanity will suffer, they would lack cultivators to fight the demon beast, and Beast kin Humanity''s survival hangs by a thread! Wu Tianwu thought things through then he sighed, after a while the other 2 patriarch of Heavenly Sovereign, Eternal Blaze sacred grounds arrived, wounded heavily, they smiled at the other three then nodded, Tianwu asked them :"Mengkou?" the other two smiled then nodded, Tianwu looked at them with tears, then he said :"Thank you, for being alive!" Tianwu, Xiao Ming, and Xiao Long fought with Mengkou before, three of them couldn''t get the upper hand with Mengkou, and now the weakest of 2 of from the 5 of them fought mengkou, and survived, Tianwu was a compassionate person, as he knew how hard it was for the two of them to have survived for humanity'' purpose, he wept tears for them. then Sun Xiong spoke, "my Son, he died. i`m proud of him for being in the front line and holding the ground against the demons, even though it was just a pastime for the demons, he still held the pride of the human Clan" Sun Xiong smiled then said :"I didnt birth a trash son, he was the best" All patriarch nodded, after a few minutes of silence between them, Wu Tianwu spoke and changed the topic :" We need to open the sacred grounds to all the people in the continent! we need to recruit more warriors or else! we''ll face the calamity of extinction!" Chapter 27 THE AWAITED DUA..... TRIPLE CULTIVATION! after testing out the skills and items, they both went back to the chamber, when they got back, they saw Shen Xiao, sitting infront of the door, waiting for them, when she saw the both of them, she smiled and bowed to the both, while blushing and said :"I`ve already remade the bed and changed the cover, uhh there was a stain so i had to change it!" after talking like that, Zhihao and Ning''er nodded and smiled at here, Ning''er said :"why be polite to your sister and husband, you should act "more naturally", and Zhihao actually "like it" too, so dont be worried to show your "True self". after Ning''er finished speaking. Shen Xiao immediately blushed again!, fully red from neck to head!, As usual, Zhihao didnt get anything at malicious at all! and only smiled and nodded, then Shen Xiao smiled and nodded. the three of them went inside to sleep, (Nothing Happened) ________________________________________________________________________ when the three of them woke up, the maids entered the chamber as usual to help them get dressed. Zhihao looked around but havent found Yi Yan at all! Zhihao just thought that she got assigned to a new working place. ;) after a few minutes, the three of them walked to the Great hall, with Zhong Ru Feng, Ling Wentian, and with a new addition! Shen Ming has joined the fray!. after a few minutes when they arrived, Ru Feng and Wentian didnt speak, as they only looked at the Young generations nervously, Since shen Ming was not able to wait for them to respond he asked away! Shen Ming : "So how''s the night Xiao`er? did it hurt? would i be having a grandson soon? hahaha it would be great if you get a s...." but before he can finish speaking, he saw Ru Feng and Wentian looked to the right! then he also looked there but found nothing, but when he returned his vision to the youngsters, he saw something in the the left side of his, three silhouettes entered the great hall. Shen Xiao blushed pinkishly as she got shy all of a sudden. Shen Ming got nervous too as he looked at the two brothers to his right, but they are still looking at their RIGHT!. then Shen Ming gulped down a mouthful of saliva. then a woman suddenly said :"Dear husband we shall have a little chat after this meeting!" it was Shen Ming''s wife Bai Suoyan. Shen Ming looked at Ru Feng and Wentian in a begging manner, when both of them was about to talk, they saw that Ruo Mei, and Ruo Lin we''re smiling at them charmingly!. They froze and at the same time, the both of them made a sound "UHUM!" Ru Feng and Wentian experienced what just happened days ago, so they just exclaimed in their hearts ; ''they planned it before! they must have planned it before! i didnt know, but luckily we scanned the halls and found them lurking in the entrance!, we avoided a calamity befalling us!, we''re so sorry brother shen, it is just a single night bare with it" The three ladies sat next to their husband''s. Ruo Lin and Ruo Mei, let Bai Suoyan spoke, since they had already did it 8days ago. she said :"Xiao''er i`d like a grand daughter, dont listen to your dad." after saying that the patriarch''s expression was filled with black lines on their foreheads. the both of ''you are the same, why even get angry at Shen Ming'' both the Patriarch and their waves said in their thoughts. Xiao''er replied with :"Yes mother," then blushed. after that they spoke about the the celestial palace academy that they would be going in within 2 months and a half. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Returning to Zhihao''s courtyard, he pulled out a cultivation method. and then appraised it again since i didnt explained it and didnt notice anyone that he bought it on chapter 20. [Ephemeral Cultivation Formation] ( Divine ) Allows shared cultivation with groups of people suffering/gaining Cultivation Spirits at the same time. -Maximum allowed people 6. the Contributor must be in the middle and the others are in a Minxing formation. -Putting Cultivation stones around the Cultivator will increase its effect. After Appraising Zhihao immediately learned the technique and maxed its level [Ephemeral Cultivation Formation] ( Divine ) Allows shared cultivation with groups of people suffering/gaining Cultivation Spirits at the same time. -Maximum allowed people 6. the Contributor must be in the middle and the others are in a Minxing formation. -Putting Cultivation stones around the Cultivator will increase its effect. -Effect : Increases cultivation by 6 folds. Zhihao gave Shen Xiao a Yin Willow pill, and made her consume it. then Zhihao withdraw 1500 pieces of Mid level stones and gave 500 to Shen xiao and Ning''er, Ning''er was already used in this behavior, her husband pulling random shits around, so she was only shocked for like 3 seconds and came back to reality, Shen Xiao was different, the only item she saw that Zhihao had used was the Shattered Medicinal pill. but now, Zhihao placed 500 Mid level stones in front of her! 5 pieces of this! can already buy their Entire Shen clan''s assets. if her father ever had this thing, he would even treasure it like a heirloom! but now Zhihao is throwing it around her. Shen Xiao was the strongest of them three before, but after yesterday, Ning''er for some unknown reason became the strongest in the widest margin. Shen Xiao was already proud of her cultivation, a 15 year old genius in Body formation realm! but infront of Ning''er who''s in Transcendent Mortal realm, she was nothing. then Zhihao said, "both of you close your eyes! we will be starting cultivation! properly meditate and kept saying this words, I want to be as rich as ball gits! and i want to own alot of Restaurant like Chef Rosy!" (In English) Zhihao poke a chant and repeated it two times so that both of them could remember it then Zhihao said activated the Cultivation System then ordered the system : ''System activate cultivation mode!'' *Ding!* =Host, i Am currently in a vaca.... Upgrading mode and cant help you! you can use it manually just think of ''Cultivation mode'' and it will start" Zhihao was stunned, oh right! System left me! and i needed to be on Heavenly Establishment Realm before he appeared, then he was shocked and said in his mind : '' then how come you can reply ?'' *Ding!* =I need time to upgrade so i left voice messages in the system, calculating all your questions and only 1 question can be replied to, the system wont help you afterwards. you can use all the system''s mechanics manually, but the "ME" , Quest, and Quest shop is inactive as host is stupid but lucky'' Zhihao was stunned again! then he asked, ''isn''t the answer you`ve given me a 2nd one? how come you can still reply after saying the 2nd one?'' *Ding!* =Bzzzt! Bzzzt! Bzzzt! system. Bzzzt!. corrupted. Bzzzt. by. Bzzzzt! host Bzzzt! stupidity! Bzzzt! The system will shut down and will awaken after the host has reached Heavenly Establishment realm.. AH! Bzzzzt!. Zhihao was stunned and exclaimed ''WTF! FUDGE YOU!!!!'' then he opened the Cultivation Mode and press cultivate! and placed all necessary preparation. Time of Cultivation : 55Days When a Special Occasion occurs, host will wake up . Chapter 28 SACRED GROUND! : RECRUITING! Shen Xiao and Ning''er felt something happened. but they kept closing their eyes, then Zhihao called them and said :"Hey wake up! the court''s in alot of dusts! we should let the maids clean this place up!." When Ning''er and Shen Xiao heard it, they opened their eyes, then noticed that they had their realms reached a new height! Ning''er entered Earth Establishment realm and is at 7th stage! Shen Xiao was amazed too as she was now in Earth Establishment realm as well! 4th stage! when they saw Zhihao, they we''re Surprised! he was in Earth Establishment realm as well and on the 3rd stage!. Shen Xiao and Ning''er was both exclaimed at the same time. "Zhihao how''d we, how come we''re, what had happened!" they we''re both opening their Eyes as wide as they can waiting for Zhihao''s explanation. Zhihao smiled and nodded, as he dont know how to answer aswell and just said : "The chant i thought you guys worked right? i think its called ''Entering the Enlightenment!'' isnt that so?" Xiao''er and Ning''er nodded, then they all went out. Zhihao checked his stats before following up.

They immediately went to the chamber, and took a bath "Together" and "Did" "Something" you guys like, but i wont narrate cus its just some words increaser! . and i have alot to say in this chapter, and it would atleast be 1000 words, just to make it shorter, they took a bath in the chamber and made some POW POW POW! and PUF PUF PUF Sounds, because the water in the the courtyard haven''t been replaced for 60days straight! and there are already worms wriggling inside!, so just the chamber will do for now, its wide enough that they can move in it, so thats good enough for some actions. after taking a bath and getting themselves dressed, Zhihao and the babes went straight to to the great hall, after arriving they Greeted Zhihao''s father Zhong Ru feng, the others already went back 59 days ago, After Shen Ming was punished for a night. :"Greetings father" all three of them greeted in the same time. Ru Feng Smiled and said,"i have an important message to tell you three. the Sacred grounds is recruiting talents started when you guys went to cultivate" Ru Feng smiled and continued "The legendary sacred grounds can give you better treatment than the ''Celestial Palace academy'' 100 folds. i know that we had a clash with Eternal Flames Sacred Ground, but i hope you guys can leave that be as there are still 4 of them" Zhihao and the two nodded, past is past, though if something really happened, one of the sacred grounds would''ve been erased already. and the demon and beast kin''s invasion would''ve succeeded. Ru Feng continued again and said, :"we didnt know it, but something happened when we we''re thrashed by that old man, the Demon Raceand Beast Kin. and almost won!, they unexpectedly retreated, and the human race survived, but the damage done to the sacred grounds are immeasurablethe original power they had was decreased into 2/5 from their power before, so they are searching for new talents to fight for the human race and give their resources in a basis of Monthly. Performances, mission, etc." Zhihao was shocked! how come his father knew all of this, so he asked :"Father, how''d you know alot of this informations?" Ru Feng Laughed and then said :"Actually your father really is capab..." before he can finish Ruo Mei coughed a little and continued :"Because the sacred grounds are announcing it to the whole continent, that the human race had suffered a humiliating defeat against the demons and beast kin, so you wouldn''t find anyone in our continent that doesn''t know. every villages was sent2 men of each sacred grounds, and every county has 10 people each sacred ground, 100 people each for the Region lords, while 500 people each on every kingdom, they are searching rapidly incase another invasion happens. our county has 10 people each sacred ground doing some interview. they wont leave and will be stationed in all their locations until they are given notice to return. so you guys should go and try." Zhihao and the babes nodded and replied "Yes Mother," then left, after coming back to the chamber, Zhihao asked for Xiao''er opinion of what kind of power she would like.(Well MC didnt ask Ning''er a choice because he thought Ning''er would''ve looked good with Frost Queen''s Fairy Set! Selfish as fck) Shen Xiao was confused as she didnt know how to answer, but then she thought about it for 15minutes then she spoke : "wind is good right? i can move faster and... and... " Xiao''er paused then continued :"I can come to you as fast as i can when you, you, you need me " Xiao''er blushed and buried her head on her chest (D Cup). Zhihao Blushed, and said : "Ok wait, let me check" Then he found some ass kicking costume!

Heavenly Pierce (Attack Skill) Full Swing (Attack Skill) Heart Seeker(Attack Skill) Thousand Spear illusion (Attack Skill) Bleeding Heaven (Attack skill) Wind Wall (Defense skill) Sylph''s Myriad Movements(Movement skill) Wind Escape (Life Preserving Skill) Zhihao Handed this skills to Xiao''er and thought her how to learn them. Zhihao dragged Xiao''er out of the courtyard and bought here to the place where Ning''er practiced her skills. Ning''er noticed Xiao''er''s new equipped clothes, and followed them. Ning''er caught up with them then asked, :"Testing skills?" Zhihao Nodded, then replied :"Testing skills." Xiao''er blushed then nodded her head, she looked at the snowy mountain then pointed her spear, gathering energy in her whole body, and directing it in the spear''s tip, she said :"[Heavenly Pierce]!!" the big Snowy mountain became a big snowy volcano! Ning''er, Xiao''er and Zhihao''s eyes and mouth opened! these scene is EPIC! After a while, they closed their mouths and sighed, Shen Xiao, looked at Zhihao in bewilderment, what kind of skills did Zhihao gave her?. but why does she even need to know, so long as he gave it to her, why bother thinking about it, Shen Xiao said after sighing :"Thank you Young master " Zhihao nodded and smiled, then Ning''er said, :"until when are you gonna call him young master? just call him Husband or Hao''er, be more sweet!" Ning''er said and laughed Zhihao just sighed and said :"Lets go to the interview, after that we can eat." after saying that, Zhihao and the babes went out to the interview booth. ______________________________________________________ The interview booth. Su Gong sighed and said :"I wonder if there is really any benefits in doing this, we''ve done this for like almost two months, and we only received 500 people within the whole continent, all below average ones at that, and in this county, there aren''t even one, atleast the Ma Tong got one from theLei Clan... ahh, when will we even be able to get back to the sacred ground." Three people appeared in the booth, Zhihao, Ning''er and Xiao''er, they looked at the booth and checked, there were flags in each of the five booths with writen words. Heavenly Sovereign sacred ground Eternal Blaze Sacred ground Monarch of the East Sacred Grounds Piercing Sword Sacred grounds Frozen Palace Sacred Ground the Interviewers were shocked! three children at Earth Establishment realm! and they looked to be around the age of 20s! Zhihao just glared at the Eternal Blaze sacred ground for a bit, before turning his head to the Piercing Sword booth, he went there together with Ning''er and Xiao''er. Noticing the Zhihao''s glare, Su Gong Hmmped and turned his attention to the beauties. and became dazed, there were beauties within their sacred ground and even greater than these two but, they cant be reached by normal disciples like them. Su Gong said :"Beauties, join our sacred ground, I`ll help you get more resources if you joined us!" Ning''er and Xiao''er didn''t even turn their gaze as both of them ignored him and looked at Zhihao''s action and followed him. Noticing it, Su Gong exclaimed in agitation :"Hmmmp! not knowing what''s good for you! following a bumpkin toy boy around" Although Zhihao didnt kill Sun Qian Kun, but there was a reason within it, his anger subsided because, what Sun Qian Kun said that time was reasonable, he knew he cant protect the Zhong clan was while he is out, getting protection out of forgiveness was something Zhihao didnt regret, but still, hurting his Wife, and 2nd wife, Zhihao is burning with anger. if Sun Qian Kun was the one who harmed his wives, he would''ve died on the spot. but since the perpetrator was already killed by his hands its a matter of the past, until he can leave the clean without worrying for their protection. he calmed himself up, because he has no power to protect his clan while he was gone, or a sect behind him that can help him protect his clan. he can only make it out on his own, he''ll immediately make a powerful sect to protect his family, or just making a kingdom would do, so long as there are powerful people that can protect his family its good, then he can kill Sun Qian Kun or the types of people that would harm his family. Zhihao glared at Su Gong and spoke calmly :"One more word out of you and you`ll die!" Su Gong Laughed he was already an Earth Establishment realm expert at stage 10, being threatened by someone at the 3rd stage, he couldn''t stop laughing then said :"if you can that is, and would you even offend the people of the sacred ground? we''re at the top of the food chain! you? your family? we can kill all of you without even blinking! HAHAHAHA" Everyone has a reverse scale, and Zhihao even though he is currently stupid, once touched,you`ll die! Zhihao looked at the guy next to Su Gong then said :" You should find a new interviewer in this booth, you`ll need it." then Zhihao placed his hand in his sword sheath then used [Heavenly flash sword]! Su Gong prepared to intercept the move, but after gathering the spiritual energy within his body, he felt numb, then his vision was moving downwards, then like automatically rolling he saw his body! WITHOUT A HEAD! his vision went dark immediately. Zhihao made his resolution, so long as you dont harm those close to me, i wont even budge if you make jokes about me, if you treat me with kindness, i`ll return it with interest!, but if you ever threaten my family in front of me, or even harmed a strand of hair, i`ll return it 100folds! Zhihao looked at the head that rolled around the ground, then looked at the man that sat next to Su Gong. he sighed then proceeded to the Piercing sword sacred ground. Zhihao said :"We''d like to enter(Not be interviewed but enter) your Sacred ground, we need to check what kind of things your sacred ground can provide us" Meng Luo sighed and said, :"We only accept sword masters, you can be accepted, but are the both of them sword experts? which Cultivation are they using?" Zhihao was shocked. then said :" This is Ling Ning''er she''s a Ice type Cultivator using sword, and this is Shen Xiao, a Wind type cultivator using spears " Meng Luo replied :" if Ling Ning''er is an Ice type cultivator, she can head to the Frozen Palace Sacred Ground that sacred ground is suitable for Ice Type cultivators, and as for Shen Xiao, she should go to the Heavenly Sovereign sacred ground, that place is at a Mountain Peak and is very suitable for Wind Based Cultivators." after finishing saying everything, Meng Luo looked at Zhihao waiting for his answer. Zhihao said :"I`ll think about it for now, we`ll need to eat first" then looked at Ning''er and Xiao''er before going outside. to Eat. Meng Luo sighed then nodded. After Going out Zhihao was shocked! there are three stars falling from the sky! then he scanned it with his Spirit sense! Cultivation stones! Three big meteorites are falling! and are actually spiritual stones! Zhihao exclaimed said quickly to Ning''er and Xiao''er :"Wives, look! the appearance of three SUPERSTARS!".. Chapter 30 Hello? Zhihao dragged Ning''er and Xiao''er to the spot where one of the Fallen Star had landed, he wanted to crack the stones, and get alot of wealth, by the size of it, Zhihao could get atleast 10,000 pieces out of it! after 15 mins of running Zhihao finally saw a big crater in the middle was the Star!, but after he looked carefully, it has been smashed in 10 similarly pieces, like a flower that bloomed, thenhe checked, there we''re things that are coming out! he cant see how many there are, if calculated in a specific method, it would be more or less 100,000! after a few moments, those things noticed Zhihao''s probing, they immediately turned into human sized things! Zhihao was shocked,he thought ''these things? are? Aliens? WTF?'' it looked like a humanoid, some had four feet with no arm, but has a big mouth in the middle! the humanoid has light behind them forming into wings, with blades on their knuckles, while others looked the same but can fly, and has no blades, the ones with four legs, opened their mouths and Shoot some kind of energy to Zhihao''s location and BOOOM! the power was like the same as an Atomic bomb! Zhihao blocked with his body, then Notifications popped up in the corner of his eyes. -240 HP! -840 HP! -840 HP! -Blocked! -840 HP! -240 H.... -..... Zhihao was dumb founded, what the heck are these things? he checked his stats then was yet again shocked! Zhihao Lv : 182 HP : (45,380/94,000) SP : (32850/32850) Zhihao cant sense any cultivation level, but he can feel some kind of energy coming from them, especially the flying Humanoids. he was worried because it is near his clan''s area. Zhihao looked at Ning''er and Xiao''er then said, :"RUN! INFORM THE CLANS TO EVACUATE!! NOW!" after saying that, Zhihao immediately rushed forward. Ning''er and Xiao''er was shocked, three of these things fell from the sky!, where are the other two! Ning''er and Xiao''er was hestitating now, Zhihao is strong, but they dont know how far he can go fighting that lots of enemies. after Ning''er and Xiao''er calmed down, they smiled at each then retreated. after a few seconds they both looked back at the same time, then aimed at the most populated area of the UIB(Un Identified Beings) then casted. Ning''er :" [Glacial Storm!]! Xiao''er :" [Bleeding Heaven]! After both had casted the skills an, Glacial Storm created a Icy hailstorm while Bleeding heaven summoned thousands of Energy spears down to the enemies. the enemies made a defensive formation, but only a few hundred was dead, and less than thousand was injured. Blue blood flowed out, glowing from these aliens,. Seeing this, the both wanted to go back and help Zhihao, but are worried, what if the other two hits their Clan? and Zhihao only has two things he wanted to protect, his wives, and his clans, Ning''er and Xiao''er looked at each other, they''ve spent half of their spiritual energy, just from that, they knew that it will turn into a crisis if they got into the town. Zhihao smiled when he saw they finally retreated. He immediately acted and used his skills. Zhihao :"[Heavenly Flash sword]!" Zhihao heard some weird noises, Woom woom wooom... a barrier appeared in front of him, and blocked 10 flashes of his skill, not even being able to penetrate. then he saw 3 weird boxes floating behind the bladed humanoids. casting the shield, the bladed humanoids unleashed their energy and focused it on their blades. they charged at Zhihao immediately. Humanoid Alien :" !@#&!@#&% !@#&&%*@#$*& @#$(((! Zhihao was shocked, They are talking to each other! then he prepared to engage them in the Fight! he was worried because he only had one skill for attack, he casts [Heavenly Gale steps], then used [Heavenly Flash Sword] together. Humanoid Alien : "^#$%** @#$((!* !!! " the aliens formed a into a wedge formation then charged at Zhihao, the one incharge hold his hands in the middle then blocked the Heavenly flash sword, but he underestimated the attack and was killed with 8 others behind him. after they were killed another 8 immediately filled in the gap and continued to charge! *Ding!* -85,450 Experience received -85,450 Experience received -85,450 Experience received -85,450 Experi.... -85,45... Zhihao couldn''t be bothered to look at the notification as he focused his attention on the enemies. Zhihao saw that they looked at each other then charged at him, they formed into a triangular formation, the one that was always talking was in front. he died, but was already replaced by some other one. Zhihao was thinking that ''They have no leader! but they got good team work all of them are soldiers! the leaders are not present!'' after figuring that out Zhihao got sweats, soldiers that are brave, and followed orders to death, are very dangerous he thought ''I HAVE TO HOLD OUT!, I HAVE TO HOLD OUT!'' he kept using [Heavenly Flash Sword]'' Zhihao pulled out a skill in his inventory then learned and maxed the skills out.

Zhihao focused again then activated everything. Everything happened like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34NfuVCrfok For References only. Contact john24nyken@gmail.com if the owner wants to remove it. _______________________________________________________ After 4 hours of fighting, Zhihao had already killed a atleast 10,000 enemies, but Zhihao had already consumed 9 Sacred Origin pills. he saw his enemies we''re still charging at him. he was already exhausted, but the enemies are still charging and numbered atleast at 120,000!, then he looked at the crater, he saw that some weird shaped boxes with thorns behind them are making a Civilization! Zhihao saw that there we''re already tens of buildings established! 4 hours it took them to make this happened, what will happen in a year?!, after seeing this, A pyramid thingy appeared in the sky! floating with 4 orbs surrounding it. He saw a black humanoid descending together with it, it has blue energies floating around it too, After Zhihao had looked at it, that humanoid being noticed, and looked back at Zhihao''s location. Immediately. that humanoid blinked infront of Zhihao. Zhihao prepared to launch a counter attack, but was grabbed in the neck instantly. a strange thing occured. Descendent Alient : " *!@#%$& H.. !@#!& He.!@#&%!@## Hel&!@# Hell!@#*%& Hello?" that being Smiled. while looking at Zhihao, Zhihao sweated as he foresaw his death! [Foresight] (Passive) (Lv 15) Activated! Zhihao Lv : 340 HP : (2624/429,088) SP : (3650/129,912) Chapter 31 CULTIVATION WORLD ON CRISIS Drak Seituro the world our host currently lives in. Zhihao Lv : 340 HP : (2624/429,088) SP : (3650/129,912) Zhihao foresaw his death! then a notification suddenly popped up. *Ding!* -Activating Time Steal (Quest points consumed 100,000) Immediately all things paused, even Zhihao, but he can clearly see everything. the foresight he saw was now blurred. but was still there *Ding!* =Host, I can help you like this only three times. now you used one. I know it would be hard for you, they are an invading Species, also one of the strongest in the Universe, and the guy holding you is one of their captains, you know? captains? after the soldiers? there are still 10 more grades above them, in my calculation they would also invade your previous world in about 18,921 years, well Humans that time would''ve evolved and aren''t the ones you would know, combining genes, and etc. well that was for the future, what you have to worry now is the present you. *Ding!* Zhihao nodded in his head, although he cant move and talk in his mind, he can still move. this type of power is deliberately overpowered. =I halted the process of my upgrade so as to help you for this time, i know you think this as a joke, but i was seriously upgrading the system. now the current agenda. you owe me 99,874 quest points, so i cant really have you die here. these creatures are called Lokratiz Soaran, and they have this instinct to dominate everything, even the system world, but we are on neutral stand. they tried to invade us but failed after just seeing our planets, you know, our great system lord, controlled their strongest one, then annihilated that feel, they surrendered and went back 100,000 planets away from us. soo hey Host, i`d like to remind you and wish you a happy future, you should be able to deal with it, The system Summoned the Sacred Origin Pill inside Zhihao''s mouth. Zhihao nodded, as he now understood, that the system really is one hell of a kind guy, but a lazy and foul mouthed one. *Ding!* =Host, the time is about to return to normal, do your best, i needed time until you have reached Divine Spirit realm to return, do your best to survive, this 3 time help comes with a 5 year cooldown, so you cant rely on it for the time being, See you again after Reaching Divine Spirit realm! Bzzzzt! 5 4 3 2 1 After the countdown, Zhihao immediately swallowed the pills, and used all the skills and passives that he has. the descendent Alien noticed that something happened. then smirked. Seeing the smirk, Zhihao knew that it had noticed something. Zhihao immediately kicked the Alien''s abdomen to escape, it was effective. Zhihao immediately unleashed his power! [Heavenly Flash Sword] 1,000 times. noticing it the alien opened its palm unleashing a barrier to protect itself. alot of its comrades died behind him as Zhihao unleashed his skills. The Descendent said :"^#@$G #234@#$ GO ,@#$@#!@#^$O !@#NE !@#ONE !@%$#^%!MERCY@!#$@#$@# ONLY!@#*!" the Alien said, then turned back, then all the aliens looked at Zhihao then went back. Zhihao knew that it meant mercy, as they can easily crush him, he immediately rushed out and followed Ning''er and Xiao''er''s path of retreat, when he came to the camp, it was already ruined, A lot of Dead cultivators! even Meng Luo is dead, then he immediately run to Black Wind county. after 2 minutes, Zhihao saw the Black wind County in ruins! and alot of those dead was their clanmen!. even the 5 heavenly established realm experts are dead, then he checked everyone in the county, he scanned with his spirit sense. he checked all the corpse one after the other, he sighed in relief but felt hatred coming out from his heart. this was his clansmen!. After that he went to check the surroundings. he saw buildings being build, stones floating and flying around the buildings too. Zhihao evaded them while going to the other clan''s, Ling Clan was in ruined Wentian is not within the corpses, then he went further East. Shen clans is in ruins too. he noticed that all the family elders, and higher ups are not the ones that died, he also saw footsteps going north! Zhihao followed the traces left behind, in a Tree there was something written, "Zhihao, if you are reading this that means you are safe, we are currently escaped the enemies that you have fought. they dont follow us if we escape, but strangely they kept building things as if constructing an empire. Husband, Me and Xiao''er misses you already, please be safe, please read this, please i beg of you. return to us in one piece, we''re heading north. we dont know when will we stop, but the invasion came from south. so north is our only option, Husband, we both will wait for you." Zhihao was happy, he smiled knowing that Ning''er and Xiao''er are safe. then he noticed something. "They dont chase"? Then he remembered something "MERCY?" Zhihao gritted his teeth, he needed to take them out this world, if it was the last thing he would do. he headed further north, but left and right, he only saw kingdoms in ruin, alien buildings being built, he started to madly rush to north lesser and lesser Zhihao found less and less of these building, Zhihao continued to move forward, then he saw a place it was still intact! Zhihao became happy, as it would be good if all their members are still alive. after he arrived, he searched with his Spirit sense, there were no one here, he stretched his reach and finally found someone, he went there immediately. Zhihao saw a woman there, zhihao immediately called out, "Hey! Where are the others?" Chapter 32 GOTHIC LOLITA. after Zhihao called out to the lady, the lady had a veil on her face, then she looked at Zhihao, then tilted her head, she said :"Human?, ohh, all your companions and my companions have already left, i stayed here to stop the enemies as the last line of defense" Zhihao was shocked, this... GIRL? you are barely 15 years old! do you also have a system!? Zhihao sighed as he looked at the girl, playing hero in this crisis, Zhihao smiled, it was still the first person Zhihao found after a long time. then asked :"Where have they headed to, i`ll take you there together with me," the Lady smiled then said, :"You are belittling me no?" the lady giggled and said, "Do I Look that young to you? I am the supreme ruler of the Demon Race, i am an Existence you wouldn''t dare provoke. I was playing with your race, but you thought your struggles we''re well done effort? hoho, i only sent my tiny pawns to play with you guys, and you seriously thought that it was an even match. Beast King and I are wagering on who can cause more terror in the human continent, but sadly he died when we we''re, fighting that creature. hohoho, and now, Me, only I am Supreme in this world, Zhihao smiled as he nodded. then said :"Yes yes, little girl, so where did they go? let us go together." The Lady smiled but there is already an anger sign coming on her forehead, then she revealed her face by removing the veil :"ME? LITTLE GIRL!? HOW DARE A LOWLY HUMAN LIKE YOU! CALL ME!? A LITTLE GIRL! I AM A SUPREME BEING! ALTHOUGH I LOOKED LIKE THIS, IT IS BECAUSE I HAVE TOO MUCH POWER! I ALREADY AM 198 YEARS OLD AND A LEGENDARY MARTIAL REALM CULTIVATOR! HOW DARE AN INSIGNIFICANT ANT LIKE YOU DARE TO CALL ME A LITTLE GIRL! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!" after that, the Lady summoned her spiritual energy. releasing it and pressuring Zhihao down, Zhihao was shocked, isn''t Divine might Realm the last realm in this world? or is it the only realm the human knows as last? but wait, are my blind eyeing me? wait no, are my eyes blinding me? playing tricks on me? why am i getting pressured down, but it looked like im seeing the goddess of beauty?!" Verushka was small but very beautiful, thus none had ever escaped falling inlove with her. Zhihao felt the pressure, as he was slowly going into a kneeling position, then said :"I just want to know where are they heading!" now its the lady''s turn to be surprised, Earth Establishment realm? withstanding my pressure? ehh? no way! the Lady immediately stopped the pressure then spoke :"To reward you from withstanding the pressure of I! Lady Verushka Von Seiz sovereign of the demon world, you can ask one thing! That''s it! now ask away!" Zhihao''s face brightened, then he looked at her then asked :"Where are they ?" Verushka smiled then said :"They headed to Mistletoe Ether Castle." Zhihao wondered then ask again :"Where is that?" Verushka smiled then replied :"Only one quest, the question was asked already, thus why should i answer the next one?" Verushka laughed as she said :"you could''ve asked how to go there, no? aren''t you stupid for asking away, not even thinking. HAHAHAHA" Zhihao wanted to pinch Verushka''s cheeks, but stopped, he know how he cant fight her with his current power. Zhihao also wanted to leave, but the only person that knows where his wives and clansmen are, is this person, an Ego-Maniac beautiful lolita. Zhihao asked, "what are you gonna do now?" Verushka replied :"One quest was answered already" Zhihao seriously wanted to pinch her lovely cheeks and nose, but damn, how can he even withstand her power, then he said :"please stop being like that, its just the two of us, we cant really start a conversation if you are like that." Verushka looked at zhihao then said, :"Didn''t you just did? are you stupid or what?, can you atleast try to think before you speak" verushka took a glance at Zhihao and had gone again to walk. Zhihao wanted to curse, but only said :"HMMP! This beautiful lolita is a walking pile of PRIDE!" Chapter 33 SURVIVORS Zhihao was bored, out of his wits, he kept seeing that lolita thingy, walking around playing with some energy ball, just throwing it up and down. Zhihao thought, yeah she''s bored. Since Zhihao can''t ask, he spoke, :"you are doing this because you like boring stuffs, now that it is boring its a wonderful feeling" Zhihao smiled to Verushka. Verushka tilted her head then said :"What the heck are you talking about? did something hit your head? you are not making any sense at all. have your brain gone bad after doing nothing? of all the type of people that could come, the stupid one came." Verushka looked at Zhihao weirdly like looking at a dog that started speaking. Verushka sighed then said :"Just do your own thing, i`ll do my own, im waiting for invaders, or other human survivors, then after alot of you guys are here. you guys can go together. its better that all of you die on the way, rather than you dying one by one, If you guys die one by one, the enemies would just follow your steps and come here to destroy my serendipity, well so long as i stay here, it will be safe, unless two of those things come together. Zhihao cant help but sigh, then he just had the urge to talk, and keep talking. Zhihao : Have you eating anything? Verushka continued playing with the ball. Zhihao : Have you ever thought of human lives? Verushka still kept continuing the game she''s playing with. Zhihao :"Have you fallen inlove with me?" Zhihao smiled as he said this but still, Verushka kept playing with the balls. Zhihao :"Are you a virgi..." before finishing the word, Zhihao already had a red mark on his forehead. but dafuq? Verushka is still playing with the ball. then Zhihao continued :"are you still a...." PLAK! A crisp sound echoed in his ears as his forehead bled. Zhihao looked at Vershka then, she''s still playing with the ball! Then who threw the fcking ball?!. Zhihao scanned around,. but still found nobody, he was gonna ask again, this time his two hands are already on his forehead, then he was gonna continue, but as soon as he opened his mouth, something white flew in his face! hitting his nose, now both his nose and forehead is bleeding,. As Zhihao was just doing this, so that Verushka could get annoyed and let him go to the place she had mentioned, but it is not working. so Zhihao silently sat down 100 meters away from Verushka and tried to think of some way. After a few moments, Zhihao and Verushka felt something, Verushka looked at Zhihao, as he had the same reaction at the same time! Verushka thought ''This guy is notordinary'', then she looked at the the place where she felt the weird feeling. Zhihao first exclaimed :"Enemies,10,000 maybe?, damn it, but there are atleast 900 vanguards, but why are they so weak, mostly at?NascentSprite realm,heading here. what the hell, are they scouts? damn it, did they follow me here?." Verushka said calmly, :"Idiot, those 900 vanguards you are talking about are your people, stupid, they are of the human race, but why are they together, and why are they bringing an army of the enemies here." Zhihao :"My people? then they arent bringing the army, they are being chased." after knowing this, Zhihao immediately prepared to fight, but before that, he gave Verushka one Sacred Origin pill and said :"You can only use it once. Save it until your last breathe". after saying it, Zhihao immediately prepared to encounter them. Zhihao equipped instantly his Emperor''s flame sovereign set, and withdrew his sword. instantly flames emerged with the sword and robe, Zhihao breathed heavily, if he encountered one of those Descendent beings, Zhihao wouldn''t be able to handle them together. Then he ran forward, ready to encounter the enemy and save the survivors. Verushka looked at him then exclaimed. :"He is using close combat skills even though he has a high grade fire elemental equipment? what kind of stupidity is this?" Verushka pondered a bit as he looked at Zhihao''s silhouette getting farther and farther away, then said :"So, he really is an idiot " Verushka Giggled slight before, turning her eyes on the ball again.

Goodnight Chapter 35 MOUNTAIN KINGDOM Part 1 the 900 people that was running, all are cultivators. after running at full speed for 6 hours, they had been exhausted beyong belief, you could say the same for the following enemies, but they are not slowing, unlike the 900 people, slowly but surely losing their momentum. there are already tears in their eyes, but indomitable will can be seen as well. ______________________________ 12 hours ago in the Mountain Kingdom Population : 450,000 Citizens In the middist of the the noon, a news made its way into the Mountain King. Mountain King :"What did you say? the sacred grounds are massing their elites because of the invasion? what happened! Tell me everything!" the Messanger immediately replied :"Mountain King, i was scouting outside, but just after a few minutes after my shift is finished, i saw something,three stars has fallen in the sky!, then a few moments later, I Saw the sacred grounds flag! they are flying towards the great plains, then there was a heavenly sight!, there are alot of colorful things, blowing here, shooting there, and such, it was like total chaos, then i returned here to report." Mountain King : " Then, i think there are no more need for us to panic, if the Sacred Grounds had already moved, i can be at ease, but just to be sure, you go check it for me." The Messanger was about to reply, but a sudden person entered then exclaimed :"The Sacred grounds are slowly retreating! The Demon race and Beast kin joined the fight!" Mountain King :"WHAT!!! The beast kin and Demon Race are together with the invader?! how the hell did it happen? is the human race at its'' final stand?" The 2nd Messanger replied :"Great Mountain King!, no! The Beast kin and Demon beasts are helping the Sacred ground retreat!" Mountain King :"WHAT?! Demon beast and Beast Kin had helped?! AND THEY ARE ALL GETTING PUSHED BACK?! ASSEMBLE ALL CITIZEN! WE SHALL DEPART IMMEDIATELY! ALL CULTIVATORS! COME TO ME! WE SHALL ASSIST THE SACRED GROUNDS AND TWO MAIDS IN RETREATING! HEAR MY COMMANDS!" Mountain king was in the top of the mountain, so his order will can be heard down below, Mountain Citizens have good health, and great sense, since all they eat, is meat, and vegetables, no wines, and such, they have superior body compared to normal humans. After that, just in 5minutes, the Citizens had been assembled down in the mountains, while 8,000 cultivators above Earth Establishment realm are together with the King, Mountain King is only at the stage 4 of Heavenly Establishment realm, but he has principles, he''d rather die than see his people suffering!. Mountain King shouted again :"ALL CITIZENS GO TO THE NORTH! NASCENT SPRITE REALMS! GO AND PROTECT THE CITIZENS FROM THE REAR! ALL OTHER CULTIVATORS GUARD THE SIDES! HEAR MY COMMAND! PEOPLE OF MY KINGDOM! I SHALL PROTECT YOU WITH ALL THE POWER IN MY HANDS!, JUST GIVE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO PROTECT THE PEOPLE OF MY KINGDOM. TO ME YOUR KING! PROTECT YOURSELVES AS NORMAL CITIZENS, AND ALL CULTIVATORS BELOW TRANSCENDENT MORTAL REALM BELOW SHALL SECURE YOUR PATH TO SAFETY! ALL OF YOU MAY GO! THE MOUNTAIN GOD PROTECT US ALL! The citizens and cultivators Yelled in unison, as they marched and did their duties, the mountain king sighed. then looked at the retreating figures of the 3 races. then he said, BRAVE MEN! LET US DIE TODAY AND BE REMEMBERED AS THE BRAVE MOUNTAIN PEOPLE! DELAY THIS ENEMIES AND ALLOW THE SACRED GROUNDS TO GAIN A FOOT GROUND FOR RETREAT! The cultivators of the mountain kingdom nodded and yelled, for them glory is everything. they formed and circled the whole mountain, preparing to activate the Defensive formation. Giving the sacred grounds a second of delay would be a great honor, this mountain people knew too well how weak they are, but they still wanted to help, because the Sacred Grounds are there to protect the people. When the Sacred grounds noticed the retreating figures heading to the north, they felt bad, if they continuesly went north, wouldn''t it be bad if they all died because of the sacred grounds? then he noticed that, the mountains was filled with cultivators, the sacred grounds exclaimed :"They are willing to sacrifice themselves, just so others can survive. damn it, since when did i get too high. haa " within the barriers range. the mountain kings immediately activated the barriers. Sacred grounds, Beast kin, and Demon race all noticed it at the same time and entered quickly, after a second of exhaling they immediately prepared to fight again. the barrier lasted for 1.97 seconds before crumbling down! the Mountain People exclaimed in excitement as they charged their force and immediately threw all sorts of spells, although it was weak, they still managed to hit and deal an extra damage, it was better than doing nothing. Chapter 36 MOUNTAIN KINGDOM Part 2 The battle continued. for atleast 15 minutes, the mountain people was down half in numbers pretty quickly. then one of the Sacred ground members quickly said :" You Mountain people! Retreat fast! go support your citizens! we can handle this, there are enemies out there, protect your people as you retreat!" that guy didn''t really know if there was actually more enemies out there, but atleast he want the Mountain people make it out alive. The Mountain King was shocked then thought ''this isn''t the only army the enemies have? then how many and how power are they actually?'' the mountain King immediately replied :"Yes, thank you for helping this King realize this, i would go immediately" after saying this The Mountain King immediately dragged his subordinates to follow up their Citizens and give additional support, its only been a few minutes and they can still see the Silhouettes of their citizens, and immediately give chase. The Sacred Grounds are holding it out quite well together with Demon race and Beast kin, then Wu Tianwu immediately shouted in shock :" OH NO!" he exclaimed as he saw alot of buildings rebuilt, from west and east of the citizens the bladed aliens are charging from both sides, it will be a massacre. he wanted to rush out but the power they had are just enough for them to hold out. Verushka laughed then said :"you pitiful humans, showing compassion even in a dire situation you guys are suffering.seriously cant deal with this minor trouble" but still, there are two Descendant being they are fighting together with, she cant have trouble now. _________________________________________________ The Mountain King saw this after a few minutes later, sweat poured out of his back. :"NO!!!!!! ALL MEN RUSH NOW!" after seeing this scene, all he could do was madly rush out. _________________________________________________ The cultivators in the Citizen''s side saw this and immediately sweated alot. A Transcendent mortal realm shouted and ordered :" ALL CITIZENS KEEP MOVING FORWARD! NASCENT SPRITE STAGE GO WITH THE CITIZENS!, ABOVE NASCENT SPRITE STAGE HEED MY COMMAND! WE SPLIT AND DIVERT THE ATTENTION OF THE ENEMIES! BROTHERS WE SHALL MEET AGAIN!." after that, the cultivators was split in half, and charged from east and west. but they didn''t fight they went straight to the enemy''s bases, to pull back the charging foes. Alot of the cultivators shouted in passion to the citizens and the nascent sprite realm and below cultivators. something like : "Please take care of my family!" "My friends, we shall celebrate again once your child is born!" "Let us meet again my friend" "My brother and sister, we shall see each other again" "My family, please take care of your own for now, we shall meet again" "Father! HONOR TO THE FAMILY! AND TO THE CLAN!" All types of farewells we''re heard from the cultivators. the citizens continued running and tearing up, the weak cultivators saw the them afar. the strong cultivators of their Mountain Kingdom splits in half, and went to the sides of the enemy army. they immediately smiled after witnessing it! the power of their cultivators are not to be messed with!. but these thought was only held for a moment, before they saw that the enemies are catching up already. The cultivator''s that was diverting the enemies attention was smiled with tears as they continued running with all their might, some we''re even laughing and talking to each other. :"Friend! WE SHALL MEET AGAIN IN Heav,,." :"Dad! Protect them too, please..." :"Friend! Let us sha...." Alot of half finished words were heard, as alot of Sword slashes was echoing in their ears, they are all smiling while tears were flowing out of their eyes. when the mountain king saw this, he knew that all of them will die, tears immediately poured out of his eyes, all those people, they always shared stories within evening, they dance around the fire to entertain themselves, the mountain people just wanted to live in peace, as they stayed neutral for all the years. now all this peace they had was shattered, only memories will remain. The mountain king smiled with tears, :"My friends, shall we?" all the cultivators under him, smiled, and nodded, :"Yes Du Songki, hahaha, i haven''t called you this since you ascended your throne old friend," :"Hahaha yeah, we''ve been friends for all this time you know" :"You should''ve left us and treat us as garbage before, so atleast we can have good conscientious while abandoning you. hahahAHAHA" :"Yeah, we can even think about it. but you just had to treat us like friends all these years, and have use us as your comedians everyday," :"Now we can''t really abandon you after all those things HAHAHAHAHA" :"But now you seriously drag us to death? HAHAHA well death sounds good friend" :"Well what can we do men? the king wants us to die together with him too" :"HAHAHAHAHA well what else can we do, but die together with him, sounds good to me" :"Worst comes to worst, we go to heaven or hell, but we can finally drink ale if we went down no? HAHAHAHAHA" After hearing this Mountain King smiled, and tears poured down his eyes. the friends he trusted all these years are genuine, and no one is abandoning him even in the end. Mountain king :"Friends, let us drink after this! heaven or hell, i`ll still treat you guys!" after saying that, he smiled again and roared :"SPLIT IN HALF! SUPPORT THEM ALL!" immediately, the remaining less 500 people divided and went to help the diversion team. All of them shouted after parting :"WE SHALL SEE EACH OTHER! IN HEAVEN OR HELL!" Chapter 37 MOUNTAIN KINGDOM Part 3 Mountain king did his best to delay the enemies, evading them and leading them further away. The Citizens was already out of sight, so the mountain king was finally at ease, his stomach was open, two of his arm was out already, and blood was floating out, the subordinates that are persisting to delay the enemies shouted, :"Our King! you go first! We''ll follow you later!" Mountain king smiled, but couldn''t say anything, he nodded within his mind, as his vision blurred. but suddenly, he opened his eyes, he can see feel the warmth, but he couldn''t move, he was dumbfounded, then he can hear people talking. "Congratulations your majesty, for getting a child! may the empire be blessed a thousand years with your child as its pillar!" alot of people followed up :"May the king and her majesty the queen proper for hundreds of years! Long live the king ! Long live the Empire!" (But that is another story for another novel, so let us skip it now) The Citizens was running with all their might, but after a long while of running, they are still normal people, they cant be like cultivators that can run for a long time, they felt exhausted one by one then said :"Please leave us here, and continue forward! dont let the King and our Clans men death be forgotten!" all the citizens kept repeating it to the Cultivators, as they plead for them to live on, while they go and leave themselves, for the enemy to get more time. the Cultivators smiled while tears was still flowing out of their eyes, all of them nodded at the same time. one of the cultivators said :"Rest for a while! then continue heading north! I need volunteers! I Will go and delay the enemies chasing us! we''ll head south!" After hearing that, the cultivators all smiled and wiped the tears in their eyes, it is their turn to protect the citizens, why would they sacrifice them, and almost all the cultivators have family within the citizens, sister, father, brother, mother, cousins, child, etc. They immediately stood up and nodded together. the Citizens cried tears while gripping their hands, they''d rather die than let these cultivators die for nothing, but they are giving their lives for their safety, it would be disrespect for to the cultivators'' resolution. The Weak cultivators numbering 90,000s immediately set fort to south! The citizens gripped their hands and gritted their teeth. the cultivators and citizens parted ways. __________________________________________ Back to the sacred grounds. Verushka was sweating alot, as she finally dealt a killing blow to the Descendant being, but she was already wounded terribly too, then she looked at the Beast kin''s Ruler Azmorath, he was smiling fully, while his sword was deep within the Descendant being''s heart, Verushka said :"Do you have any last will? i`ll help you fulfill it" Azmorath smiled then said :"Just protect my Kin, and also, please help my daughter, she''ll be the next ruler, but still lack experience." Azmorath has been stabbed in front to the stomach and went straight outside from the back with the hand of the descendant being. he smiled and said :"Atleast, just keep her alive until she fully comprehends life. her mother died after giving birth to her, and now im dying too. please, just this favor is enough" Azmorath with pleading eyes still looking at the Descendant being stabbed with his sword, Verushka nodded. and said :"i`ll try my best, but i cant guarantee anything, as you can also see the state I currently am, only one enemy, and we''re both like this, so i`ll just do my best in regards to that" Azmorath smiled then nodded forcefully. the light in his eyes vanished, the last breath was breathed. Verushka smiled then said, :"Farewell friend, we''d had clashes, and games, but you we''re the only one that ever understood me. i`ll seriously do my best regarding your clan and your daughter, rest in peace now " Verushka immediately went and help the Demon Race, Sacred Grounds, and Beast kin. doing her best before successfully retreating together. they headed north, since the invaders we''re coming from the south. After a while, they noticed a group of people, the normal citizens of the Mountain Kingdom! The sacred grounds immediately stopped there and told everyone to assist this group of survivors, Wu Tianwu :"Rest for a while! then form a group of 20 people and search through out all the surrounding kingdoms, villages that we will be passing by, re-organize them and let them come and join this survivors! we shall head north!" Immediately, everyone nodded and surveyed the survivors and asked them where are the cultivators that was with them, the citizens re-told the story with tears and holding wills as strong as steels. Wu Tianwu and the others nodded then said :" Let us proceed" immediately everyone followed and headed further north. Chapter 38 IT IS YOUR HONOR Ying Mai and the other heads of the sacred grounds met, then went to Verushka. at the same time, they all bowed deeply then said "Verushka, we thank you so much for lending us a hand, if you didn''t come we would''ve already been dead a long time ago, and condolences for the Beast kin''s ruler, a supreme being like him died helping us." Verushka crisp her eyebrows and said :"You noticed? how dare you even enter the battle without checking your enemies background, that`s why I and Azmorath only played with your race ones in a while, if we charged seriously, you would''ve been extinct for how many years." "at first, we tried to come into agreement with your race, but you guys are extreme hypocrites, you thought your race is above all, and immediately attacked our messengers" "but since we are too kind to bully kids like you, we kept giving you guys resources, when playing with you, and you guys are entertaining to watch" "when we have compiled alot of people volunteering to have fun with you guys, and ready to die fighting, then we would send them to you guys to play with you." "seriously you guys are annoyingly prideful, even after being too weak. you guys go and believe yourselves as superiors," Verushka finished her words them hmmped! noticing that the five of them are all smiling sadly, she knew they already know the meaning within her words, Verushka walked away to her Race''s area. Mountain Kingdom''s cultivators had gone south, if they tried to searcho those men, it would only mean death for more than half of them, in a third might be lost, with a heavy heart, every normal survivors could only grit their teeth as they marched forward. after five hours of walking they finally had the view of a clear city, it was the first city that was evacuated by the Demon race, and the Beast Kin. a total of more than 480,000,000 Citizens was saved by the them. They all went inside, then Verushka Announced : "You all, shall go to my "SACRED GROUND" even 100 of me can''t break through to it, it was build by our great great great great... The first lord of the demon race had build it! it is called sacred because "IT" is Sacred, and couldn''t be breached by invaders, Easily, unlike the "SACRED GROUNDS" you guys knew of. The patriarchs of the 5 Sacred Grounds laughed mockingly at themselves after hearing it, yes, that kind of place really is to be called sacred ground. Verushka continued :"I Think you guys are wondering, why we of the demon race and beast kin saved you? well it was because of the will left behind by our first great lord, it was this words ''do not make the humans go extinct, they may be weak, but we can learn alot of things from them, they only have 50 to 100 years to live, but instead of just enjoying their little time, they continued to strive, doing some things just so that they could feel that they are alive, we on the other hand, can do nothing for 100 years, but dont feel the changes, let the humans teach us something, in return for us to protect them'' yep our Great lord said, that although you guys are "WEAK" we can learn something from you guys, but i doubt it cause alot of you guys became a little strong, and became immediate hypocrites! even elementary realm are hypocrites just because they had a simple background" After hearing this, the Human race wanted to rebuke what she said, but can''t find the words to reply, they had to only admit, that what she said was right, which young master of their race was not arrogant to normal people? Verushka continued :"Even our new borns are born with elementary realm powers, and you guys are so happy just getting those power, i dont even know what to learn from you guys! but unlike you guys, we respect our ancestors, so i`ll just have to watch over you all, and waste my time until i die. dont worry though i have atleast 100,000 years left to live! so you guys have alot of time to waste" verushka hmmped again as she glared at them then said. "You guys go now, i`ll stay here within this place to wait for others to return, atleast we could add some more slaves to have you guys feed yourselves!" after saying that she went to a corner then summoned a ball, then played with it. (Still looked like a child playing). "It is your honor that i even went and saved your race from extinction! Hmmp! IT IS YOUR HONOR!" then continued playing with the ball. Chapter 39 ZHIHAOs STRENGTH the weak cultivators of the Mountain Kingdom''s side noob #1 said :"We lost them, but there are only a few of us left, should we go proceed to north?" noob #2 said :"Wouldn''t we be endangering them instead?" noob #1 :"if we`ll be careful it would be okay, but if we are spotted by the enemies, we go south again!, even if we die!" All of them nodded, the wet eyes they had never dried up, thinking to the thousands of comrades that died together with them, out of all of them, only less than 2,000 had survived. they also want to return to their families, but responsibility is something they cant remove from them, as such they are also willing to die for the rest. they would take care of the families of the dead. they all headed north, continuesly checking every sides, they cautiously ran towards the north. after a few hours of running, they finally saw a clear city. but then they saw something behind them and from the sides, ENEMIES! noob #751 :"we''re surrounded! the only path is to the north!" Noob #555 :"I`ve scanned the city, there are two life signs, they might die if we brought the enemies there!" Noob #1 said :"Let us go to the city, hide those two, they might be elders, that wished to stay in their city, let us hide them in a safe place, then those that made it into the city, encircle the enemies and drag them again to the south! the further they go south , the more dangerous it is for the survivors!" Noob #2 said :"half of you guys! to me! no! 900 of you guys go to the city, then quickly hide the elders, after that go to the south while luring the enemies, the remaining guys, to me! WE SHALL DIE TODAY! HOLD THE ENEMIES AT BAY! EVERY SECOND COUNTS!" Noob #1 said :"Brother, lets meet in the after life after this!, let us meet with all our brothers!" everyone nodded, they had made the plan. now to act the part. immediately around 900 people rushed to the city, while more than 1,000 people held their grounds. The brave 900 people rushed to the city, tears and will power filling their faces and heart. then they saw someone, coming to them from the city, it was a young man! they immediately shouted, "NO! GO BACK! GO BACK! ENEMIES! GO BA...." but before they finished speaking, the young man held tohis sword''s hilt then shouted. Zhihao :" you all go to the city! i`ll rescue the others" He immediately activated all his passives then shouted :"[Heavenly Flash draw]!" The enemies looked at Zhihao immediately, as they detected the strong enegy coming from him. immediately they rushed to Him, drew their energy blades and charged! the Enemies, immediately formed a defensive stance. then more than 50 of them died, but there are still less than 10,000 enemies left. Zhihao looked at the situation, the enemies had come straight to him, passing the weak cultivators. Zhihao smiled, the cultivators seemed safe, Zhihao activated the skill he haven''t used yet. He shouted :"[Burning Path of the flame sovereign]!" immediately, the surrounding air turned hot, then like Shadow fiend''s SS the flames erupted from within him causing the enemies, to back out immediately. The enemies detected the strong power coming out of Zhihao they wanted to try and retreat, but since they are near him, they cant escape. they concentrated on their barriers, as the heat rushed passed them, they looked at each other. one of them spoke :"!*%$%&!@# !@#!#%????" (With that kind of powerful energy, it only dealt damage that weakly?) but after saying that they realized something, the heat continued, draining their life force. for the first time, they sweated, there are no paths of retreat, so the only thing they can do is rush to Zhihao. they immediately charged. but the closer they get to Zhihao, the more intense the heat is. one by one, comrades they had together, fell to the ground. as closer as he goes, the more intense it was. to Zhihao''s view he kept seeing them dying, but on his left side they can see alot. -85,450 Experience received -85,450 Experience received -85,450 Experience received -85,450 Experi.... -85,45... Then when he was infront of Zhihao, he was preparing to strike, but failed to strike, as he find it hard to even walk now, then he slumped down the ground, and looked at Zhihao, he nodded his head slowly, acknowledging this Man as someone strong. Zhihao was shocked. ''Spirit attacks like this are strong? why didn''t i used it before, once the system goes back i`ll immediately get some fire skills, but, shit i have negative points! i need to grind more points!" Zhihao was dazed, then he saw the weak cultivators then he said :"Go to the city, i`ll explain everything there" Noob #2 said :"Thank you for saving us great ancestor" when cultivators became strong, they can retain their young appearance, so they misunderstood. Zhihao immediately shouted :"I AM 14 YEARS OLD! YOU GUYS GO TO THE CITY NOW! BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND AND FEED YOU TO THEM!" Noob #2 was shocked and immediately replied, :"Yes young master, I am Mo Ying, please let me follow you!" he wanted to be strong, to avenge his fellow Mountain Citizens, Chapter 40 ZHIHAO AND VERUSHKAs MOMEN when Mo Ying said it, he wasn''t expecting much, since it is a bother for someone strong to help a very weak one to be powerful. but still expecting something is better than expecting nothing, so he still looked at Zhihao. but to his expectation. Zhihao replied calmly :" I said, go back to the City" then he walked away then entered the city. within the city, there was a girl smiling towards Zhihao, :"oh hoo, not bad for a kid, he had that kind of power, with just being in the Earth establishment realm..." the girl was Verushka, she smiled then next smirked. as Zhihao entered the city, he thought, ''I need to cultivate fast, so i can have the system back as fast as i can'' then he saw Verushka was there waiting for him, then he said :"what''re you doing here? you should play with the your balls"(Sounds shitty LOL) Verushka snorted, then :"Hey virgin boy, wanna have fun with this sister here ? Hohohoho, it would be your honor" Zhihao glared at Verushka then spoke :"first of all, i''m neither a kid nor a toy, so you can find someone else, I have no time for you" after saying these Zhihao was about to leave. then Verushka smiled then said, "if you dont, they will all die, hohohoho" Verushka placed an Evil smile on her face, Killing intent flooded the whole area. Zhihao felt the killing intent and sweated, even the weak cultivators within the city felt it too. then Zhihao was preparing to draw his sword, but remembering how powerful this little loli showed, he knew he can''t save them, or even save himself. He wanted to see his wives so much but if he died today, he wouldn''t be able to. Zhihao sighed then nodded :"Ok. where?" Verushka smiled and released her powerful aura and killing intent, then smiled brightly, :"Let us go outside since there are people here, and they might die, hihihi" Zhihao nodded then went with her, ''How much position would we even do for them to die, are Demon race like this? damn it, am i in so much trouble? should i had thought about death instead? they do things this rough? holy cow!'' Verushka led the way, then stopped at a plain 1 km away from city. :"This is wide enough, you can unleash everything you have here, hohoho, I just wish you dont finish so soon, it would be a pity, i haven''t done this for a very, very, very long time you know" verushka smiled then looked at Zhihao seductively. Zhihao nodded then started taking of his robe then inner shirt. then Verushka shouted. Verushka :"What the hell are you doing?!" she blushed while saying it, then continued "You are such a pervert! STOP!" Zhihao was dazed then shocked, then dazed again, then spoke :"ehh? what do you mean?, uhh you said you wanted to do it since you haven''t done it in a while, you kept teasing me into submission too right? what are you saying all of a sudden" Verushka said bashfully and angrily :"IDIOT! I MEANT FIGHTING! FIGHTING!" Zhihao was stunned then said :"You wanted to fight? then why''d you have to make it sound so misleading!" Verushka thought about it, then remembered everything she had said, immediately, her face blushed from her neck until her forehead!, like a color of a cherry. then Verushka glared at him then shouted :"IDIOT! WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME THAT AFTER YOU HEARD IT!!" then immediately Threw a punch to Zhihao POW! Zhihao was stunned, but couldn''t do anything receiving the punch, he flew up very high then he said :"B.. bu.. but.. y.you. we''re continuesly TALKING! I DIDNT EVEN HAVE A CHANCE TO TALK!" Chapter 41 BIRTH OF THE LEGENDARY- NS after the second ball hit Zhihao, Zhihao kept dodging the following balls, as he got used to the speed. Verushka witnessing this got enraged further, (Although it was her fault to begin with), Verushka hmmped and stopped then she concentrated her aura inside here after that :"Hmmmp! TAKE THIS! [ETERNAL DARKNESS]!" Immediately, after activating her skill, thousands and thousands of energy ball was floating besides her. blocking the light coming from behind, she smirked :"See if you can dodge this!" Zhihao was shocked one ball was enough to make him suffer a little, but thousands of it, that would be a pain, Zhihao immediately exclaimed :"Wa wa wawawa wait!, i already got two balls! receiving more is invalid!" He was hit by two balls earlier, which caused him to be hurting on the spots it hit, after witnessing the mass of balls he got sweats all. Verushka blushed, after the first blunder, she became extremely sensitive to such words, immediately she threw all the energy balls to Zhihao and said :"You BULGAR PERSON! TAKE THIS AND DIE!" shame was overwhelming within her as she hurriedly threw the balls. Zhihao was still sweating but immediately activating all his passives. Zhihao with eagle sight and heavenly gale steps dodged the balls, one by one, ten by ten, eighty by one hundred, 20 balls hit Zhihao, as he lost his focus, then another 100. Zhihao was nervous now, if this continue he''ll die! he''ll definitely die!, he stood up quickly, then quickly concentrated again. he dodged them one by one, ten by ten, hundreds by hundreds, although the balls are still grazing him, it wasn''t as painful as before since it wasn''t hitting anymore. as Zhihao continued, he had a sudden enlightenment. "this!" he exclaimed!. Zhihao focused now, then immediately, didn''t make a retreating movement, but was standing in the ground. then suddenly Zhihao had a notification. and was hit by the remaining ten balls. *Ding!* -Host has self created an existing skill Skill name [] Host can create the name, as it was created. please Set a name for it host. Skill grade : Mythical Skill Type : Active Skill Definition : Using minimum movements, and evading alot of projectiles and magic. -Detecting all movements within a certain space of 5 meters outside host area (Lv 1). Zhihao was laying flat on the ground as he smiled. Verushka went closer, then he saw Zhihao smiling then shouted :"PERVERT! [HEAVEN PRESSURING VOID]!" Immediately ten refrigirator sized balls emerged within the ground, and went straight to Zhihao, then Verushka exclaimed :"OH NO! he''ll die!" but a bullet shot was not to be retrieved easily. but then she was suddenly surprised. Zhihao smiled then he thought ''Upgrade [HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL]! *Ding!* -Host has self created an existing skill [HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL] Skill grade : Mythical Skill Type : Active Skill Definition : Using minimum movements, and evading alot of projectiles and magic. -Detecting all movements within a certain space of 15 meters where the host used the skill (Lv 10). Level 10 Skill Effect : Slows down the time by two folds. Mana need per minute 539 Zhihao quickly got up, then he quickly activated the skill :"[HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL]!" when the energy passed by the 15 meters inside the barrier. Zhihao felt amazing! Everything turned so slow! then Zhihao moved, using minimum movements, Zhihao and evaded the Refrigerated sized energy balls! one by one, he evaded everything. then Zhihao smiled. Verushka was shocked! then she thought of the skill again then walked closer to Zhihao. Zhihao smiled, then she suddenly noticed Verushka walking closer to him, He immediately put up his guard. Verushka frowned, then said :"Do you really want me to beat you so much? you do know that i still have alot of skills that you wont even be able to see, until it was past you like this [Piercing Darkness]!," a needle like thing came out then skip passed Zhihao''s face, blood flowed out from his cheeks. Verushka smiled then immediately continued :"See? i`m just giving you a hand because i was bored." Zhihao calmed himself then asked, "Can you create things like that? just by practicing ?" Verushka smiled then said :"Isn''t everything like that? what? you are telling this lord that you can create a skill and suddenly learn it out of nothing? are you stupid?" Zhihao wanted to nod, but urged himself to stop. then continued :" Can you teach me how to learn magic?" Verushka was shocked, then nodded, :"Sure! atleast i won''t be that bored." she continued :"Try imagining the element you wanted to create, then focus your energy there until it comes out" Zhihao nodded then opened his hands, he tried to imagine ''hmm how about wind?''(Seriously? you are wearing a fucking flame elemental set!), Zhihao imagined something that he watched as a kid before in the orphanage then shouted :"RAZENGAN!" Immediately the air around his palm circled around, then wildly clashed together, then immediately formed alot of circular motions then, it smoothly went one by one, forming a wild wind that isn''t clashing together. -Host has self created an existing skill Skill name [] Host can create the name, as it was created. please Set a name for it host. Skill grade : Mythical Skill Type : Attack skill Skill Description : Wild winds forming but was serene and not clashing together its penetration power is weak, while its shattering power is strong. Verushka was shocked. :"uhh you seriously just tried now right? that''s not your skill? how come you can actually imagine something so bizarre and serene at the same time, and it was actually working?" Zhihao smiled then nodded, he was gonna say it was something he watched from his previous world, and naming it Razengan, but he bit his lips, yeah! it was copy write, so i`ll just use it two times, then he said :"Isn''t imagine something and making it happen the basics of magic? why are you surprised?" Verushka was shocked yet again! shocks kept happening here, but there was no elemental lightning or pikachu, so it was weird. then she thought ''is this kid actually a genius?''. Zhihao was happy witnessing his newly formed skill. then he said :" I''m gonna name it [WIND CIRCLING BALL]. Verushka face planted immediately, then asked, :"That''s your skill''s name?" Zhihao nodded then replied, "the first skill i used was [HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL] and now this is the 2nd one i had made! [WIND CIRCLING BALL]. I am so happy." Verushka has black lines coming out of her forehead :"What kind of naming sense is that?" Zhihao smiled then replied :"Isn''t it good? its a legendary name! or better even godly!" Chapter 42 RESPONSIBILITY! Verushka immediately paled. then she continued :"Legendary? Godly? what kind of pills have you been using? do you even think before naming it? everyone that makes a skill, think of the name for atleast a year, creating a skill isn''t something that you can do with a whim!" Zhihao blinked three times then said :"Can''t be created in a whim? didn''t i just did that? why do you even have to have a hard time thinking about it?, wouldn''t that just mean you guys are stupid?" Verushka immediately popped some veins, then angrily shouted."YOU !! YOUU!! YOU!! then are you telling me that out of 100% of the population in this world you are the only normal person!?!" Verushka stomped her feet as she madly pointed at Zhihao. Zhihao just shrugged his shoulders, oh and yeah, he forgot she is speaking to a supreme sovereign. then he walked 50 minutes away then said :"i`ll try this skill first" Zhihao thought inside his brain, then maxed its skills, then aimed at the ground at the same time shouted :"[WIND CIRCLING BALL]" BOOOM! BLAKAKAKAK WOOOOSH SHOOOONG SHUAAAA! BREEENG! The skill created a crater bigger than meteorite did!, and whats worst, they cant see it! since the damage was inside the ground! not outside!, all they heard was noise of twisting, breaking, and shattering!. the ground was Floored!(and it was a floor to begin with!). Verushka said :"It created a burst of wind inside the ground? ohoo. let me see how big the damage was! let me see! let me see!" Verushka skipped happily closer to Zhihao. Zhihao noticed Verushka skipping like a child, Zhihao found this innocent movements likable, and such he smiled. The ground shook, and then collapse, before Verushka can maintain her footsteps, they already fell down, as such Zhihao tried to catch Verushka but, the inevitable happened, a falling stone of cupid hit Zhihao''s back and made him lose his center of gravity. = Author''s Mighty Translation : Then, the author summoned an Earth Quake! the author shouted [ECHO SLAM]! Bam! before Verushka could react and steady her footsteps, so that she could fly, the author made another summon! [AFTER SHOCK]! immediately the ground below collapsed, she was rendered stunned for .5 seconds, she falled together with Zhihao, but the crater was formed inside in a Circle manner, which dragged them to the middle. Blang! Verushka and Zhihao are in a position most Readers 99.99% of them would definitely love to see, but this is not a manga nor an anime, so the author can only describe it as a 69 position! : End of Author''s Mighty Translation = After a while Zhihao''s mind came back to reality. then all she can see is black, white covered with black, a good combination indeed, White like your lovelife and black like your life. then Zhihao heard Verushka talked :"ahnnn! Dont move! STUPID! IDIOT!" Zhihao tried to reply but his mouth was blocked :"UHAY BHU AH KEN MGWHUB! BBHLIZ BHET BHOUT! BHO BHOBE!" (okay but i cant move, please get out! you move :Author is a magician, he can read doc''s writing and mute''s word, so a blocked mouth is easy") Verushka blushed then shouted :"DONT TALK! DONT TALK! DONT TALK! I`LL MOVE!" Zhihao nodded and said :"Ohbhei" then he heard another sound "Ahhnn!!! Nnnnn," then Verushka spoke :"I SAID DONT TALK AND DONT MOVE! NOW! PLEASE STOP RIGHT NOW!" Zhihao didnt move and talked, and also didn''t nod, he just sighed motionlessly then thought, ''i guess i`ll just accept death today.'' after a fixing themselves, Zhihao and Verushka didn''t move. for about 18minutes they where just sitting across each other. Zhihao sighed, as he reminisced the time when both Ning''er and Xiao''er was with him, spending time together, a long time that they had been together, for like 9 and 14days, excluding the fastforward of 59days. and all the things that he havent done yet, the minutes went by so slowly, that he even remembered things that he haven''t done yet. then he imagined, ''WHAT IF?!''... what if i have a baby! or BABIES! I CANT DIE! I CANT BECOME THE SAME AS MY PREVIOUS PARENTS!. I CANT DIE! MY BABIES!'' then he heard something. "u...ke...ty.." Zhihao : "Huh? " he heard the voice, but can''t point out where it came from. then he thought and said in his mind ''System are you back?'' but no one responded. "ou... ake...bility....." Zhihao heard it the next time then looked at Verushka then shook his head, she''s still lowering her head, then he scanned his surrounding, then he heard the third one ".....ponsibility...." Zhihao definitely heard it from Verushka''s direction so he asked :"Verushka, was it you? did you just say something" Zhihao looked at Verushka after saying that. Verushka heard Zhihao then glared at him then shouted :"YOU! TAKE! RESPONSIBILITY! FOR!! WHAT!! YOU! DID! TO! ME!" Verushka glared, then tears flowed out of her death glare. Zhihao was shocked then asked "RESPONSIBILITY?! For what? i can''t restore the earth!" (Sorry guys, i cant really fix MC''s stupidity with love, sorry, i am trying my best already, but i guess, i made him too perfect to be stupid. this author bows to you with great sincerity in apologizing) Verushka glared with tears flowing out of her eyes, then shouted again :"TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT YOU DID TO ME!" Chapter 43 GETTING A MAN AND A WIFE AT THE SAME DAY! Verushka was red from her neck to her forehead, and tears were flowing out and kept repeating "Take responsibility!" like a child, she was even pouting as a bonus. Zhihao tried to calm her down and said :"There was nothing that we could do that time! and we haven''t done anything too! it was just all an accident! and i already have two wives, so i know thata noble lord like you can''t take that. we can just forget about it as if nothing happened!" Verushka glared and said :"oh! That''s simple! We can just kill them! then there wont be anymore wives!" Verushka was still crying but she smiled as if what she had said was a fact. Zhihao''s eyes immediately went fiery, then said :"YOU DARE?!" after saying that, Zhihao held on to his sword''s hilt with all the killing intent he can muster. Verushka exclaimed :"Ohh hoo, so you think you can go against me now? after taking my chastity? you are too bold!" Verushka summoned all her power and surrounded here immediately. :"Let me see what you can show off now!" Verushka turned into a beautiful woman that looked like a 21 year old woman, with hourglass figure, and smooth silky skin, the once cute and lovely beauty, was now a Hot and graceful devilish woman.Verushka slowly placed pressure on Zhihao''s location. (with a wife like this, you can pick any type of age you`d like! Me likey toooooo) Zhihao sweated but didn''t budge then he said :"i''d rather die first than them! if you ever touch even a hair in their head, i`d use all i can to kill you!" Zhihao glared, but he is getting weak by the second. as a man, he really wanted to take responsibility, even if he hadn''t done anything. -1280HP! -1280HP! -1280HP! -1280HP! -1280...! -128...! -1.....! Zhihao was losing his consciousness as time passed by. then he heard a weeping sound, Zhihao looked at where it was coming from. then he saw Verushka crying so much that her face was distorted beautifully. the pressure immediately vanished. Then Verushka immediately said while crying :"You`d rather die than to take responsibility for what you did to me?! WAAAAAAAAAAH! I''m already divorced before i get married! NO! WAAAAAAAA" Zhihao was shocked with the sudden 180 degree turn, then said :"When''d that even happened? I held my ground because you threatened to kill my wife!" Verushka immediately said :"But you dont want me! WAAAAAAA" Zhihao replied immediately :"I DIDN''T EVEN SAY THAT!, where did it suddenly came out from!" Verushka replied too :"Then you`d take care of me and be responsible? sniff sniff" Zhihao :"Yeah, i will." Verush :" Really?" Zhihao :"Yeah really" Verushka immediately returned to normal with her 15 years old body and the tears vanished immediately then said :"Ok good, just remember what you said!" Zhihao immediately exclaimed :"wha? what? what did just happened?" Zhihao felt something wrong and that he had played from some kind of trick. Verushka laughed then said :"Oh that? that was my mother''s teaching, she said good natured men tend to give in whenever they see beautiful women crying, thats her research with human''s emotion. my mother said that if the man didn''t give in, just kill him immediately because thsoe kinds of guys are bad ones." Verushka immediately sneered, then flew out of the crater, while smiling cheerfully. Zhihao was shocked, did he just avoided death? and what? researched humans? then asked :"What?" Verushka replied :"Well it was more like my mother took to her heart our ancestor''s teaching, thats why she researched human behaviors and stuffs." Zhihao''s head was full of black lines, he sighed these demons, really, if they had already done research on human behaviors, what were their behaviors before they started learning? (hey MC, from the word DEMON at least you should be able to get something out of that.) after thinking that thinking isn''t going to solve anymore things, he thought that he should already go out, and head back to the city. Zhihao immediately entered the city, but as soon as he did, Mo Ying greeted him immediately like welcoming a lord, Mo Ying :"Master! Welcome back, Your wife had already came back!" Mo Ying bowed immediately, not showing any emotions. Zhihao was shocked again, this guy is terribly persistant, but then again he pondered, Butler ma i hope you are okay. then he nodded :"I can take you as subordinate, but no mistakes!" Mo Ying :"Yes Master!" Zhihao nodded then threw 2 pieces of Mid level stone, :"Those are Mid level stones, cultivate first," Mo Ying''s eyes shown, only their great cultivators can use Low level stones, but just being a servant gave him 2 mid level stones! he immediately replied :"Yes MASTER!" with full respect and power he nodded. he liked it or not, but as a subordinate, he can only nob his head, . Chapter 44 AZURE ETERNAL MARKS PILL/ UNTIL DEATH DO US PAR Zhihao nodded to Mo Ying, then went straight to his resting place. Arriving at his resting place, he saw Verushka playing with the ball. he looked at her then sighed, its like she''s not even making a big deal out of what happened earlier. Verushka noticed his gaze, then glared back, then asked :"What? you got a problem!?" Zhihao sighed yet again, gaining this type of wife, is sadder than sad. then he went to talk to her. :"Hey, do you even know what a husband and wife do?" Verushka smirked then said :"Ofcourse!, my father and mother said that, when a man and a woman goes to bed! We can make babies! hmmp! such simple things! and you had to ask about it" Verushka held her head up high, pointing her nose in the sky. Zhihao sighed then went to her and said :"Actually ...." Zhihao explained everything to Verushka. Immediately, Verushka glared at him then exclaimed :"NO!, You are lying!" Zhihao smiled then said :"So we should remove this idea of you being my wife. and me being your husband, right?" Verushka glared at him then said :"NO! My mother said that after a man took my chastity, it should only be that man! or else i wont get married!" Verushka looked fiercely at Zhihao. Zhihao couldn''t do anything but just sigh, then he said :"Alright, but dont do anything like killing my wives, ok?" Verushka glared at him then said :"A guy that isn''t content with one is the worst, DEFINITELY!" Zhihao sighed then said :"Then why are you still pursuing us being husband and wife?" Verushka was speechless, and then said :"Hmmmp! Just take care of me from now on!, I`ll take on all the enemies for you" Zhihao smiled then nodded :"Okay, i`ll take care of you, together with the other two of my wives, i`ll equally treat you all the same, ok?" Verushka smiled inside then said :"Hmmmp! You better be!" then continued "You should live with me starting today!, and you`ll be the head of the Demon Race. Be a proper guy for them." Zhihao couldn''t help but sigh, he gained a race instead of gaining followers, then he just nodded his head. Verushka then looked at Zhihao then said :"Zhihao, as my husband you should call me wife from now on!" Verushka stated in a matter of fact matter. since Zhihao wouldn''t be able to fight with his new wifes thinking, he just tried to tease Verushka, :"Then wife, since i Am your husband, you should call me husband or something sweet right?" Verushka Hearing this immediately blushed then glared at Zhihao, but Zhihao only shrugged his shoulders to pass by the death glare. then Zhihao said :"Why? Cant? hahahaha" then Zhihao walked away saying :"I`ll be going to pass time for now, i`m going to look for some foods to eat." Verushka saw Zhihao''s leaving figure then was a bit reluctant. then she said in a low voice. "h.. hon...honey!" Zhihao heard a sound coming from verushka then turned back to look at verushka then said :"Did you said something?" Verushka nodded with a blush full of face then said :"Honey, take care" Zhihao was shocked then shoutingly replied "Whaa?" Verushka was blushing then shouted :"HONEY! TAKE CARE! RETURN BEFORE THE NIGHT!" Zhihao was shocked again, then went to his normal state then said :"Okay honey, hahaha i`ll be back" Zhihao walked away, but then a silhoutte appeared infront of him then handed something It was Verushka, :"Take this pill, it can help us dual cultivate, forever, no matter how much cultivation power i receive, half of it will come to you. TAKE IT!" Zhihao was shocked, then said :"Eh? Why?" Verushka said while blushing :"As my husband, you need to catch up to me fast. so that i dont need to hurry, its name is AZURE ETERNAL MARKS PILL, it can be used by husband and wife, to share cultivation energy with each other." Zhihao was shocked again, giving that much just from a verbal agreement, she might look like a very strict person, but she can also me stupid sometimes. he thought, ''if some random guy picked her up, and it was a bad guy, she sure will suffer alot, well im not really any good guy, but i`ll try my best to help her too. i guess this can make things easier." Zhihao nodded then said :"Okay, i`ll take it" then Zhihao immediately swallowed it, then Verushka said :"Now kiss me, it is to seal the vow, and make me your shared partner" Verushka blushed as she looked at her right. then followed up "Hurry up!" Zhihao thought inside, she is a very innocent supreme lord, i think i`ll take care of her for all eternity, then Zhihao said :"Until death, do us part milady" Zhihao lowered his head and kissed Verushka. Verushka was nervous but immediately calmed down as Verushka took Zhihao''s neck and further enclosed the gap within their bodies. Zhihao and Verushka immediately noticed something. Zhihao immediately asked something :"Where are we in the first place?" Verushka widened her eyes, then immediately realized something! They we''re in the middle of the town!. the weak cultivators that was there clapped all together, what a performance indeed! plak plak plak! Claps were thundering in the surrounding, some even whistling and laughing. Verushka hearing got so embarrassed that she immediately blushed, then said, :"If you guys want to die you stay here, and keep our loving memories, but if you all treasure your lives, you should go and leave and forget about everything that you`ve seen" after saying that, Verushka released her killing intent and Spiritual energy, ready to strike at anytime. Zhihao sighed, as he saw everyone immediately scattered away from all direction. Zhihao smiled then lifted Verushka in a princess carry. then said :"Take this Yin willow pill swallow it, it gives you 6 times the yield with half the effort." Verushka was shocked, but still, calmly said it, she''ll already give all her wealth to Zhihao, but still, receiving something from the human she said was weak, was a new feeling to her, it was not something unpleasant, but something warm, then Verushka followed up, :"Ti`ll death do us part"Then swallowed the yin willow pill Zhihao smiled then said :"Yes, ti`ll death do us part" Chapter 45 Author here Hello everyone! I am here because there was a story behind how i i couldn''t write chapters for you guys yesterday. I''ve been struck with a flu, a very heavy one (trangkaso in our language) the doctor said that i should rest more, the reason for this was over fatigued, and lack of sleep. Doc said that im only getting 3 to 4hours sleep for the past week, (Well im trying to get to the power stone rankings, and get my readers to have fun) so im here saying that i''ll be reating for a while, i''ll write chapters again after this flu kicks the bucket, so you guys wait for me! Fighting! Chapter 46 I MISSED YOU!, WELCOME BACK! After the two of them had made their vows, Verushka told Zhihao :"We should start cultivating now, so that you`d be able to protect yourself, while i fight those things." though Verushka sounded proud, It cant change the fact that, she''s worried for Zhihao''s sake. Zhihao nodded then said :"Let''s go cultivate! i know a way to enter the "Enlightenment", it would help us cultivate fast!." Verushka looked at Zhihao then sighed. This guy kept making things pop out everywhere. Zhihao called Mo Ying : "Mo Ying!" then he looked around, after a few seconds a silhouette appeared in front of him. Mo Ying : "Master!, sorry for the delay, Your subordinate Mo Ying is here, ready for your orders" Mo Ying bowed them immediately clasped his hand ready to accept any orders. Zhihao nodded then said :"Verushka and I are entering a "Enlightenment" stage. do well as to not bother us, only warn us ahead of time, if there are is going to be a crisis, or if the enemies are attacking " After finishing, Zhihao looked at Mo Yin. Mo Ying immediately nodded and said :"Yes master, this subordinate obeys" after seeing Mo Ying''s action, Zhihao nodded, then looked at Verushka then said :"Let us go, we can cultivate now, i just wish there are no more enemies." __________________________________ Then Zhihao Fixed his setting to 1 year and six months, under the special waking up call from someone. Zhihao dragged Verushka to the highest part of the City''s Mayor villa. Zhihao told Verushka to repeat this chant for them to enter the ''Enlightenment'' state. :"I want to be as rich as ball gits! and i want to own alot of Restaurant like Chef Rosy!" (Yep!) Zhihao followed up, you can only use it while we''re together, if in other times it wont work, as i am the creator of this "Chant", after that Zhihao handed another500 pieces of Mid Level stones, then proceeded to their rooms. Zhihao clicked proceed to the cultivation system. The System prompted Level Exp gain : 891,419,532 Cultivation realm gains : 499.999.718 (Host Needs himself to break Through to Mythical King Realm himself, After breaking through host will receive the exp that wasn''t added :1,948,177) 3rd powers assisting : Yin and Yang Willow Pills Azure Eternal Marks Pill (Verushka) Mid Level stones : x2,000 Zhihao closed his eyes, at the same time told Verushka too :"Close your eyes" Verushka nodded then closed her eyes. then she repeatedly said the chat Zhihao told her inside her mind. :''I want to be as rich as ball gits! and i want to own a lot of Restaurant like Chef Rosy!'' She felt something warm came inside her body as soon as she said those words inside her head. she wanted to continue. but after a few moments. Zhihao opened his eyes then patted Verushka, then he said :"Hey!, wake up! lets go outside to check everything!" Verushka frowned her brows, then said :"Is that how you cultivate? for a mere few seconds?" she was angry as to how lazy Zhihao is, she just started to feel the energy coming to around her. but Zhihao woke her up immediately, She glared at Zhihao then said"Let us continue!" Zhihao smiled then said :"A few seconds? just look around you if its a few seconds. Your aura helpedus in preventing dusts from coming into contact with our clothes and skin, but the surrounding wasn''t covered by your aura, now, just take a look around." After hearing Zhihao talked, Verushka was bewildered, then frowned, but then she still looked around. then she opened her eyes widely, ''dusts were forming like mountains already! how long has it been!?'' she exclaimed inside her head then looked at Zhihao. Zhihao smiled then said :"Let us take a bath together then. It''s been 1 year and a half, so we probably smelled badly" Verushka nodded, while she was still dazed. she tried to feel her energy Zhihao smiled as he held Verushka''s hands. Then a notification popped up inside his head. *Ding!* =Host, i thought you`d at least take a few more months, but sadly, you`ve cultivated already to Divi.. ohh! Congrats host for being in the Legendary Might Realm! =after i was gone, Host has created two skills, Rewarded with 120 (60 each) stats in all of Host''s stats as a reward.

I missed you so much!" *Ding!* =It might''ve been a long time for host, but it only took 1 hour for me, so no need for missing me host. Zhihao sighed in his mind, while they both kept on walking. Verushka suddenly exclaimed :" I''m at Legendary Might''s realm! and im about to break through too!" Zhihao smiled then said :"Me too" then kept walking towards the bath. Verushka suddenly was awaken from her daze again, then said :"You''re at Legendary Might''s Realm too? How fast?!" Zhihao smiled then replied, :"As your husband, it is only natural that I Do so, right? milady" Verushka was shocked then remembered something and spoke loudly :"Why are you coming to the bath with me!" Zhihao looked at Verushka like she''s weird, then said :"Aren''t you my wife, and you''ve been my wife for a year and a half, so taking a bath between husband and wife is a common thing in our world, your mother didn''t tell you?" Verushka was embarrassed then nodded, :"Yes she did" Zhihao continued :" Then let us continue to our bath." Verushka nodded and smiled weakly then said :"BUT NO PEAKING!" Chapter 47 FIRST NIGH As Zhihao and Verushka headed to the bath. Verushka took her hands out of Zhihao then said :"You go the other way, i`ll use these here." Zhihao looked at Verushka then said :"We aren''t going to bath together? it''s pretty huge right? and your my wife already, whats wrong with it?" Verushka blushed then said :"Because I said so!" Zhihao said :"Ohhhh, i thought that if you get married you have to always take a bath together" then pondered then said :"Oh well, you guys from the demon race has different culture, i`ll wait for my wives, then we can take a bath together" when Verushka heard it she was shocked and said :"WAIT!, you guys bathe together? well my mom and dad also does that....." then she blushed then said :"Okay, you can have a bath with me, But nothing else! NO PEEKING TOO!" Zhihao pondered for a bit, what kind of reaction was that, then he replied :"Uhhh, okay?" Verushka led Zhihao to the bathroom then undressed themselves. After putting the towels around her body, Verushka immediately dove in the bath. then looked at Zhihao, seeing Zhihao''s half naked body she blushed then exclaimed :"What are you showing your ugly body for! go put a towel and dove in!" Zhihao sighed then walked towards the bath. he did an acrobatic dive! but sadly it is only 3 feet tall. his head ached as he scratched it. Verushka laughed at this display. then said :"Thats what you get for showing off!" Zhihao sighed and put on some soup, and shampoo on his body. after a few minutes, Zhihao was going to go out already, but Verushka called out Verushka :"Uhh hey? are you finished already? that''s like 2 minutes? do novels on human continent Bathe that fast?" Zhihao answered :"Not really, but if you`re uncomfortable with me being here, while you take your bath, I''m feeling guilty, so I decided that i shouldn''t linger on here" Verushka blushed then said :"Umn, just stay here! That''s an order from your wife!" Zhihao sighed then just stayed inside the bath. Verushka kept peeking at Zhihao, but Zhihao can''t peek at Verushka such a sad reality. Verushka then started a conversation :"How''s your wife doing?" Zhihao smiled then said :"I let them escape first when I encountered this strange beings, I wanted them to save mine and their clans, also my family, that''s why I pushed them to escape" Zhihao sighed then continued :"I guess they are already in your sacred grounds hahahaha" Verushka smiled but deeply pondered and thought ''some people leading some clans? haven''t seen them, maybe they''re there but since the sacred grounds of the human continent went there maybe they handed the authority to them'' then Zhihao said :"I miss them already" Verushka pouted then glared at Zhihao thinking ''this guy already got me and he keeps thinking of other woman'' then she paused ''he was thinking of doing babies!'' Verushka looked at Zhihao in a awkward manner. this guy is a baby making machine! Zhihao noticing Verushka''s glance sighed then turned his back. Verushka nervously said :"I`m already here, ummm you should focus yourself to me first! before others!" Zhihao smiled then nodded. Seeing that Zhihao wasn''t much interested in her, she already pouted. Zhihao looked at Verushka then smiled, he said :"After all this things had ended, i`ll introduce you to them, you can have a talk like sisters." Verushka nodded then she spoke :"Ummn, Husband, can you teach me?" Zhihao smiled then said :"Teach you? uhh well I''m not really that good at anything except cultivating right now." Verushka pouted then said :"That!, you know! how to make babies, I want to learn them" Zhihao immediately choked on his own saliva then said :"What the hell? You serious?" Verushka glared at Zhihao then said :"What?! Do I look that young to you? as you know i can change my body!" (NO NO NO NO! Readers like it that way) Zhihao calmed down then went straight to Verushka, then he said :"You should prepare yourself. as Both you and I Don''t know much about it, but still i`m experienced. now close your eyes" Verushka nodded nervously then closed her eyes waiting. but what happened was something she didn''t expect. Zhihao filled a pail of water and smacked it down to Verushka.(Like putting a pail in your head) Verushka was enraged, Seeing this, Zhihao made a run to the other side of the bath. Verushka chased after him as fast as she could in a normal way. but then Verushka tripped on a smooth surface of the pool then collided with Zhihao. Verushka fell into Zhihao''s embrace but immediately wanted to get up, but stopped immediately. then she looked at Zhihao nervously then closed her eyes waiting for Zhihao''s reaction. Zhihao was first happy as they were playing chase, but got nervous instantly. then he calmed himself and approached Verushka''s face with his. Verushka imagining that Zhihao would insert her head in another pail got annoyed, but suddenly something warm was entwined with her lips, when she opened her eyes. Zhihao face was already in hers. Verushka closed her eyes then let instinct move her body, immediately she hugged Zhihao as she rode his body. Zhihao felt the movement from Verushka then he followed up, one of his hand wrapped around Verushka''s back while the other one was traveling behind Verushka as it slowly descended from her back to bottom until it reached her tights, Zhihao immediately searched the forest then he heard a sound. Ahnn! Zhihao opened his eyes then looked at Verushka then smiled. the hand that was hugging from behind Verushka immediately went to her front, and massaged the small peaks and the pinched the top of the peak. Another sound was heard after that. Nnnn! Verushka opened her eyes then said :"I`m feeling weird," Zhihao replied saying :"Its normal, people in love do this kind of things a lot" then followed up "Continue" Verushka nodded as she placed her hands on Zhihao''s chest. Zhihao felt that she''s ready, then asked :"Are you ready? i`m gonna do it now" Verushka nodded obediently this time, her whole face and neck is red that blood might come out. Zhihao didn''t hesitate anymore as he inserted his manliness inside Verushka. Verushka smiled innocently and said :"You and I are forever after this right?" Zhihao smiled then said :"Haven''t I promised that to you already?" Verushka smiled after hearing that then said :"Let me have your baby" Zhihao pulled out as he wanted to do some more foreplay, she has a tiny paper slit. Meanwhile, inside the bath, Verushka was standing in the bath''s corner while Zhihao licked her! Zhihao was crouching as he licked her. Verushka''s hands were clutching Zhihao''s hairs as she tried to control her moans. Verushka was getting more turned on than she initially thought. She found she actually enjoyed the thrill! Zhihao could feel the taste of both the water and Verushka''s love juice! Zhihao stood up and pulled Verushka. Soon they were in standing 69 position! Zhihao was standing by himself while his shoulders supported Verushka''s legs. her private part was visibly on Zhihao''s face! Zhihao continued to lick Verushka''s private part while Verushka thought of doing something with Zhihao''s donkers. She took his private part to her mouth almost a minute. She only let it go when she was about to choke. Then they fixed their position in a front to front way. then Zhihao laid Verushka on the floor then inserted his into Verushka''s private part. Zhihao continued and reached her deepest part. Verushka was shocked as this time, it finally reached the end part of her privates. Verushka made a sound of ecstasy :"Ahhhnn! Its inside of me!" Verushka kept moaning and moaning when they had started. Immediately Zhihao turned to his wild instincts and led Verushka to heavens. as the world around them can hear a sound of "Piak! piak! piak! plop! plop plop!" __________________________________ After 10 hours of fighting, Zhihao laid on the floor, while Verushka placed her head in Zhihao''s chest. in Verushka''s life, this was the first time that she had ever felt something like that! Verushka looked at Zhihao then kissed him. Chapter 48 TROUBLESOME KID After the memorable night, Zhihao and Verushka went outside. but after a few seconds, their eyes widened in astonishment!. There were almost a sea of people, they can even see that outside the city, there were already people out there setting quarters. Zhihao was astonished, there are at least millions of people here!. Zhihao smiled then said :"Oh hoo, a year and a half gone, and everything has its own growth!" Verushka smiled seeing Zhihao was energetic but she rebutted :"Ahh, more people to feed" Zhihao smiled at Verushka then said :"I`ll handle the foods and their protection my wife, don''t worry about it" Verushka looked at Zhihao tenderly then :"Hmmp! talking big will do you no good, neither will they going to bore fruit, they`ll only get lazy if you kept feeding them!" Zhihao thought it for a second then said :"I`ll make a Human Kingdom!" Verushka looked at Zhihao then said "You are the King of my Demon Kingdom!" Zhihao was shocked, then pondered for a bit, then he replied :"Why not make a combined kingdom? Human, Beast kin and Demon races?" Verushka looked at Zhihao then said :"Our Demon race and Beast kin would definitely allow humans to stand equally with you lowly humans!" Zhihao replied, :"Then why are you standing together with me? this lowly human, milady?" Verushka blushed and then :"Hmmmp! do whatever you want!, you already got three wives, so you should be man enough to take that kind of responsilibity" Zhihao smiled then hugged Verushka from behind, then said :"Let''s go then", after hearing Zhihao''s words, Verushka nodded. Zhihao immediately called out to his subordinate :"MO YING! GO TO THE GOVERNOR''S MANOR" the voice sounded like a thunderous clap from the heavens, all normal citizens and weak cultivators shook in Nervousness. Mo Ying immediately came in front of Zhihao, but seeing that Verushka was being hugged by Zhihao from behind, Mo Ying immediately bowed down and dared not to look then said :"Mo Ying, Reporting to master, waiting for your commands!" Zhihao scanned Mo ying then smiled then said :"Ohh, you`ve already gone to Sky establishment realm, good job" After hearing Zhihao''s praise Mo Ying smiled from ear to ear. then he said :"Thanks to you master" Zhihao nodded then said :"Tell me, how many people are cultivators, and how many are normal people, and tell me their total numbers, or just the quotation" Mo Ying didn''t dare delay as he searched his mind, :"Master, Outside the city are the cultivators whom came one by one, or by groups, the total number of cultivators are about 1.5 million, while the number of normal citizens are about 40 million citizens." Zhihao nodded then said :"Ok, are there any problems?" Mo Ying said :"Master, the enemies'' base are getting closer and closer to the village. and there is this troublesome young man that wishes to meet you, i think its Either acknowledging you as his master, or challenging your authority." Zhihao nodded then said :"Oh? someone wants to challenge my authority?" Zhihao stopped, because what he said shocked him most then exclaimed :"but wait? since when did I have an authority. I only saved you guys." Mo Ying replied, :"Master, all the citizens here asked whom is protecting this city, and since all of us know, but don''t have your permission, we only said ''someone supreme that can match the aliens''" Zhihao frowned then said :"You sure, you don''t want to cause me some trouble?" Mo Ying was about to reply but Verushka immediately cut in. :"Don''t you want to build a kingdom?, just go with the flow, i`ll help you until you grow into a good leader" after finished saying what she wanted to say Verushka immediately removed Zhihao''s hand from her stomach then walked away. Following up Verushka said :"Just try to handle things here first, I want to take a bath first and sleep some more" after saying that, she immediately went inside the Manor. Zhihao waved his hand then said :"Rest well my love, recover fast!, we`ll be heading to your sacred grounds sooner or later" Verushka nodded then went inside. Zhihao then said :"Come, let me welcome the new inhabitants of this city" Mo Ying nodded then said :"Yes master" then walked behind Zhihao as he talk about the matters in the city. Mo Ying led Zhihao to the citizens. The Citizens immediately noticed this and followed them closely, the resources here are almost out, all of their stuck had been drained. although the only thing they ate are rice porridge it was equally divided to the families for 1 year and 6 months. as such it quickly was disposed to their stomach. After arriving outside the City. someone immediately shouted at Zhihao then said :"So you are the ruler of this city? I, Lu Piao is a prodigy and is already at Divine Origin realm! Hand over the rights of these City to me!" Zhihao looked at Lu Piao in a weird manner, this kid sure knows how to talk, but Zhihao still ignored him, as it won''t be good bullying a 16 year old kid (well you are 15). Noticing that Zhihao was ignoring him, Lu Piao already got enraged! then he said :"HAND OVER THE CITY TO ME NOW! OR A CRIPPLE!" Chapter 49 THEY ARE STARTING, SO AM I! Zhihao looked at Lu Piao weirdly then said :"If I gave it to you, would you be able to protect them?" Lu Piao was stunned, then said :"I`ll try my best!, Unlike a supreme being like you who''s not even a cultivator, I can do more!, Supreme Being of Kindness!" Zhihao looked at Lu Piao then a notification popped up. *Ding!* =Host would you like a quest? Zhihao was shocked then said in his mind ''Sure'' *Ding!* =Host, there will be a massive invasion coming from the Lokratiz Soaran, The Arrogant race from the Mech Realm. =Quest details, Save as much Human as host can. -Specifics - Don''t wake Verushka up or the quest will be invalid. if she wokes up on her own, without your intervention, it would be exempted. Quest 43,851,882 Human lives. Quest Failure Human lives turn to 0. Quest Reward : 1 Quest Point per saved Human Life. Quest Failure Punishment : Decreasing cultivation level by 1. Zhihao smirked. then thought ''Quest failure? i`ll just order them to hide inside the city.'' then said in his mind '' Proceed''. *Ding!* =Host''s quest has been activated!, and just a warning, there are two Transcendent beings with the same cultivation as you. Goodluck!. Zhihao''s mood immediately went down!, ''WTF?! Are you serious here system? why didn`t you tell me that sooner than later! damn it!'' then Zhihao Calmed down, as he looked at Lu Piao then he said :"Would you like to help me?" Lu Piao was shocked, he waited for his response for 3 minutes only to hear those words! He got enraged. but when he was preparing to Hurt Zhihao, he felt some vibration. then he looked at south. he saw a dust forming upwards with somethings below. Lu Piao immediately shuddered. the enemies!, he sighed, he only wanted to bring the people here to safety, but he guessed it was already too late, he wasted too much time, waiting for this Supreme being of kindness of theirs. Lu Piao glared at Zhihao then shouted :"TAKE ALL OF THE PEOPLE OUT OF HERE!, I`ll DELAY THEM AS LONG AS I COULD!" Zhihao was shocked and his eyes widened too, then thought '' oh hoo, so this guy wanted to save this people by being their ruler, and since the citizens here believed that i can save them, i was their only hope, why would they believe a kid, right? hohoho an interesting guy indeed.'' Zhihao nodded his head, after seeing this, Lu Piao immediately rushed towards the enemies, but every single one of them is a match for Lu Piao, so he could only evade them and lead them to west. Zhihao saw this and smirked, then thought ''this kid is brave'', then he immediately said to Mo Ying :"Mo Ying bring all the cultivators to the back side of the City, and also bring the normal citizens further back." Mo Ying nodded then replied :"Yes master" Mo Ying has a blind faith to Zhihao, he immediately gathered everyone and went back to the city. Zhihao was preparing to go but stopped, he saw some people, blocking his way smiling at him. Zhihao scanned them, then found out that they are all in Heavenly Establishment realm. 24,000 of them!. They are the hermits that only wanted to cultivate without bothering for worldly affairs, they are the ones that helped the normal citizens from escaping the invaders. at first there was 180,000 of them, but after helping for more than a year. they had declined alot. One of them said :"City lord, you should return, do not sacrifice yourself and lead the people to safety, you are kind, with your kindness, I think the human Race would flourish." after saying that they all walked slowly as they reminisced their times living. Zhihao was shocked yet again!, this people! then he laughed at them :"HAHAHAHAHAHA HA HA HA HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAH AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA" Zhihao laughed as he saw a lot of good willed people like this, ready to die for a cause. when the Hermits heard this. they looked at Zhihao in bewilderment then asked :"Whats wrong lord, we can hold this for a bit more than you can atleast" They were starting to get enraged, that laugh was like stepping to their pride. Zhihao said :"You guys, stay with the citizens" immediately after saying that. Zhihao pulled out his aura. The heavens changed color like someone was Descending from it. then Zhihao continued :"Hahahaha, I need you guys, I`ll create a kingdom with all Beast kin, Human Race, and Demon Race can co-exist, so you guys go and protect the Citizens, Following me will be a blessing for you guys in the future. but I haven''t thought of it as I have only decided it today!, so you guys go protect the citizens for any stray enemies coming." After exuding that type of aura, they all knew that this guy, is Supreme! not in Kindness, but POWER!. Immediately, All the nodded then said :"Yes", they went back to the city and formed a defensive formation around the Citizens. Zhihao formed a grabbing motion, then grabbed Lu Piao that was running for his life to west, immediately to his side. Lu Piao was dazed, as he thought ''What the hell happened? was that the legendary fortune telling?'' Then he saw something on his left Zhihao was there. then he thought ''I`m Time travelling!? wait! where are the others'' then he saw Zhihao looking at him while smiling. Lu Piao asked, :"What happened?" Zhihao smiled then said :"You are brave, and have a good will, Follow me from now on! Be one of my subordinates, you are the 3rd one" Lu Piao was bewildered then he asked :"are you hurt in the head?" Zhihao replied with :"Watch me, and tell me if you ever want to follow me, i`ll only give you this chance. oh! and tell me if there are any enemies coming to the Citizens" Lu Piao asked again :"Are you? really powerful?" Zhihao smiled but changed the topic :"They are already starting their massive invasion, so i`ll also start", then looked at Lu Piao then said : "THEY ARE STARTING, SO AM I!" immediately Zhihao rushed towards the enemies. Chapter 50 Awakening Zhihao immediately activated his buffs, and casted [Burning Path of the Flame Sovereign] with the additional Spiritual energy that Zhihao is mustering. the effect was tripled! Zhihao was now at Legendary Might Realm 10th stage, so the power he can unleash is definitely top notched. The enemies noticed it. and immediately wanted to retreat. Zhihao casted [Heavenly Gale steps] and [Heavenly Sword Flash], Cutting them to pieces, before it could only kill 5 or 10 of the enemies, but with his realm evolved. he was killing 400~1,000 of them in a sword skill. This Massive invasion was consisted with 25 Transcendent beings, 850,000 Soldiers, 240,000 Four legged Aliens, and 100,000 boxed flying objects. Zhihao calculated everything, then he used his awesome skill [WIND CIRCLING BALL], He threw it to the middle of the escaping enemies, The Razengan hit the enemies, and immediately the enemies were getting shattered, some were twisting, some were crumbling, some were being torn to pieces, and some were getting nowhere. Immediately the Transcendent beings descended from the sky, as they looked at Zhihao, The highest rank of them spoke :"Greetings human, we''re the Lokratiz Soaran, Our orders are to invade this planet, as this is the first Planet we need to invade before we could enter the Cultivation realm, We from the Mecha Realm are invaders, and we''re already 94% successful in invading the Mecha realm, we''re aiming at your Planet now, as such. you will be the stepping stone in our plan for further Civilization." After finishing their words, Zhihao immediately replied and said :"Sorry, can`t let you touch my new world, this is my second life already, so I Can''t let you guys ruin it before I can enjoy it!" the Transcendent Being replied :"Do not worry though human, if we fail this invasion, we wont be invading this cultivation realm anymore, until we''re more prepared, that is if ''WE'' fail" immediately the eyes on that Transcendent being flickered as he shot out powerful concentrated energy to Zhihao. Zhihao immediately repelled it with a slap. SLAP! The Energy bounced to the allies of the Transcendent beings. then he said :"Brothers, KILL" Immediately the rest of the Transcendent Beings Gang Banged(Gaming term, not some other industry, Clear your thoughts) Zhihao, Zhihao smirked, then he drew his sword. The Transcendent Beings fought with their hands covered with barriers and energy. Zhihao was slightly struggling, then he Focused one of his attack to a Transcendent being. Immediately the Transcendent being died, and fell to the ground. Seeing this, the other Transcendent beings immediately glared at Zhihao and attacked Zhihao. The two Transcended being looked at Each other as they signaled each other. the both of them contacted something. _________________________________________________________ After an Hour, Zhihao had killed 6 Transcendent beings. and His [Burning Path of the Flame Sovereign] Had already runned out, his level kept increasing and increasing, as there are only 58k total of the enemies army. Zhihao smirked Its his 2nd use of the Sacred Origin Pill. Zhihao looked at the Transcendent being, as if Looking at a rival. but then he was shocked Within the West and East, another army of the Lokratiz Soaran numbering in 800,000 each! Zhihao looked worried. Then he looked at the two transcendent being that haven''t joined yet. Zhihao spoke to one :"Retreat!", But the Transcendent being immediately replied :"Why?" Zhihao replied :"I can fight you all alone" The Transcendent being replied again, :"I know, but why should we retreat? it is our advantage" Zhihao replied :"I have a comrade there that has the same power there, my wife can handle it" the Transcendent being frowned, then said :"The woman that killed Zak''Marizu?, Yes i guess she can handle it" the Transcendent being answered in a half guessing manner. then continued :"But our orders are to kill, never retreat, and fight to the death, With NO NEGOTIATION" Zhihao was getting ready to wake up Verushka, But something on his stomach hurt him, in an incredibly twisted way!. His stomach felt like twisting inside, there was something coming up! and making its way to his heart! Zhihao cried in Anguish and shouted :"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" The Transcendent being was looking at Zhihao weirdly, then he looked at his comrades. he prepared to join the fun, they are sensing that Zhihao is growing strong per second, so they immediately rushed towards them. Zhihao was burning inside, then he saw that the Transcendent beings are charging to him at a fast face. Zhihao activated his [HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL]. everything turned slow, then he heard a voice inside his head, that voice spoke softly and charmingly :"Hello, man in the lower realm, I am one of the Gods in the Gods'' Realm in our cultivation realm, This stone was planted by my daughter in your stomach for it to grow, it is called ''Innate Blood Awakening Stone'' It awakens your blood''s true potential, i tasked my daughter to find a suitable candidate for this stone, as it is one of a kind, If you can hear this, it means that you are alive, and the stone has activated." the woman paused then continued :"If not, then you had died", a few more seconds, nothing followed up. He noticed then that the Transcendent beings are already within his attacking zone, he used his skill [Heavenly Sword Flash]. Zhihao was shocked, as all of them was wounded deeply! some are even missing limbs, Zhihao smiled then said :"Leave, Quickly! and Retreat! I`ll only show mercy! ONCE! The Transcendent Beings wanted to reply, but the current power Zhihao had, is definitely something they can''t handle. Immediately the Transcendent beings backed out. and called a retreat for their armies, that was about to start a massacre. They sent telepathy to one another and one of them said :"We need a general in this Cultivation world, Ask for reinforcements and tell them our situation" everyone nodded then headed back, halting their invasion. Zhihao smiled as he was looking at their Retreating figure. then he smiled as he slowly descendent to the ground. after falling someone caught him, It was Verushka. Zhihao was gonna use his Sacred Origin pill, but descarded the idea. as he was only limited in using them, Zhihao was limited to 50 use, and he already used it more than 15 times!, and he''s only been in this world for like 2 years! Zhihao laughed as he thought, ''I wish i don''t get more powerful enemies, I might really die next time'' he made the Lokratiz Soaran retreat because he wanted to stabilize his power, he just leveled up and realmed upped today, so he wasn''t used to his power yet, he was over exerting himself earlier, using too much energy on the soldiers. Zhihao smiled at Verushka, and was gonna embrace her. Verushka immediately noticed Zhihao''s action then dropped him, then said :"Aren''t you ashamed? the role was totally REVERSED!" Chapter 51 DRASTIC CHANGES Zhihao was in a Vegetable state, as he used all his spiritual energy and would be like the same as normal humans until he recovered 0.0000000000000000000000000001% of his energy. Zhihao sighed then walked with Verushka back to the City. But suddenly someone was running towards them at the speed of light! It was Lu Piao! Lu Piao was so excited!, he can barely face of with the soldiers of the invaders, but this guy fought with their leaders! and made them retreat! Lu Piao was in Ecstasy as he finally found someone strong! then he called out :"MASTER! GOODWORK!" he rushed as he wanted to Hug Zhihao with his full strength. Lu Piao was so excited and he didn''t know that Zhihao was in his Human Strength right now, hugging Zhihao would result in certain death! is what Verushka thought. but Zhihao has the System''s Leveling up! which means even if he''s cultivation realm is drained, he has a same state of Physical body as a Divine Mights'' realm Cultivator. Verushka snorted then waved her hands, immediately Lu Piao was thrown a kilometer away!. then said :"Nobody touch my husband!, only me!" then continued in a low tone "and the other two wives" Verushka walked in front of Zhihao as she hmmped! Zhihao can''t do anything but sigh, this is really handful, now he knew why in Earth, it has a law that stated every man can only have one wife. Lu Piao was getting more excited!, His master is OP! and his wife is OP too! Damn fortunate to have a master like him!, 3rd subordinate?! NO PROBLEM! then he said :"My master and Mistress is strong, I can''t wait to see my two senior brothers! They can teach me alot!" (Eldest brother -Butler Ma, 2nd Eldest Brother -Mo Ying) Lu Piao immediately floated and descended behind Zhihao and Verushka, following like a good pet. Zhihao was sighing in his heart, he was truly wasted in his current state. as such he can''t do anything. Then a Notification came *Ding!* =Host, you have received external help in your internal body, sounds fun hohoho. Wanna check your stats? Zhihao was shocked, then calmed down as he said : ''sure''. Immediately the System showed his stats.

Zhihao smiled then nodded, but he immediately paused, then asked ''system, why was there only half the points?, nobody died!'' *Ding!* =Explanations are below this words : -Verushka Woke up from you releasing your Awakened state (Consequences for Failing) -The Sudden power up removed the balance, of power, thus the system has marked it as a (Consequence that can fail the quest) but since there was no specifics for that, the System deemed it Invalid. the system then continued. =If I, was selfish, I would''ve voided your quest reward, but since I have something to do, i`d like the credits you owed me back. Zhihao was shocked, and then he smiled and thought ''Thanks system,'' *Ding!* =You are welcome host. Zhihao wanted to brows the store, but he''s too tired. The citizens and cultivators welcomed Zhihao as if they were their gods! Everyone shouted at the same time :"THANK YOU LORD!, AND WELCOME BACK!" Zhihao looked at them in shock, then he smiled as they waved at them, then he continued walking together with Verushka. The Citizens and cultivators made way. Different shouts were heard from the Citizens as both Zhihao, and Verushka walked to the governor''s manner. -LONG LIVE THE KING! -LONG LIVE THE EMPEROR! -LONG LIVE THE SUPREME BEING! -LONG LIVE THE RULER! -PLEASE HAVE ME AS YOUR CONCUBINE! -PLEASE MAKE ME SOME BABIES! -PLEASE LET ME WASH YOUR TOES! -...... All types. after hearing this, Verushka glared at Zhihao then said :"I Guess you`re all popular now huh, you can actually pick anyone out there and they''d immediately pull up their skirts for you." Zhihao smiled and said :"If i can be moved like that, i`d already have millions of ladies by my side, I actually am a meticulous person, and I am in-love with the three of you, although it wasn''t that much love, but it kept developing through time" Verushka hearing those words blushed and looked at the left, then said :"You sure can be a smooth talker huh, Hmmmp!" ___________________________________ In the other side of the Realm. the Mecha Realm. Archon, A news had arrived from the vanguards we sent to the Cultivation realm. The Archon looked at the reporter, then said :"Continue" The report spoke :"they are within the first planet in that Realm, but there were already three beings that can match against a Zorkras(Captain) But one of them was actually much stronger, as he dealt with 25 Zorkas but still killed 6. They estimated that, that person has the same power as our Derkados, so, The vanguards are requesting for one or two reinforcement of Derkados(Major). The Archon frowned then said :"Send them three, Just to make sure, and make sure to receive all their important reports, make it delivered to me as fast as you guys can, we can''t let the High Mardaros(Colonel) know of this failure." The reporter immediately replied :"Markara Azule!(A form of salute) Archon(Lt. Col). the reporter immediately vanished to the void. The Archon smiled then said :"Hoo, an interesting planet indeed!" Chapter 52 A TALE OF TWO. Zhihao took a rest, immediately after entering the manor. He immediately went into a meditation position, and harnest the energy to enter him. Zhihao looked at Verushka then said :"Can you, call Mo Ying for me?" Zhihao smiled with pleading eyes. Verushka seeing Zhihao''s expression blushed a little, then said :"Hmmp! you have the balls to order me around now huh!" even with that said, she still went outside to call Mo Ying. After a few seconds, Mo Ying entered the Manor, and said :"Master!, Mo Ying has come!" Zhihao nodded then said :"Tell everyone to prepare, tomorrow we will be leaving to the demon continent" Mo Ying was shocked! then nodded, :"Yes master" After giving the task, Zhihao looked at Verushka, she was already playing with the energy ball. Zhihao sighed then said :"I`ll meditate for now, to restore my spiritual energy" waiting for Verushka''s reply, he kept looking at her. Verushka nodded then said :"You should be faster, seriously going there to fight alone, why''d you even have me" Zhihao said :"A wife, is taken because of love, Having a wife, doesn''t mean i can use you guys as a tool, but actually, As a man, I wanted to protect you guys more, than seeing you all in battle." Verushka smiled, and blushed a little, then she looked in the other way then said :"Hmmmp! you and your tongue!" then she continued playing with her energy ball. Zhihao smiled then continued to meditate. _____________________________________________ Outside the manor, Mo Ying immediately gathered the cultivators and said :"Master said, that all citizens and cultivators to be prepared by tomorrow! We are heading to the Demon Continent!" immediately, after finishing his words a lot of ruckus was circling around. then someone spoke :"Is the master going to sell us to the Demon Continent for cultivation resources? will we be slaves?" Mo Ying was gonna say something but was interrupted by someone, It was Lu Piao, He said :"Nope!, as the strongest guy between you guys, i can vow this! Master is not bad! maybe he wants to steal the Demon Continent''s living space so that we can already have a new Home!" After finishing what he said, The citizens heaved a sigh of relief then immediately chatted happily with each other. Mo Ying glared at Lu Piao then continued what he was about to say :"Master, is forming a new Kingdom!, where Demon race, Beast kin, andHuman race can co-exists together, master also said that if you can''t take that idea into heart, you guys are free to go!, It will be a country, where people will have to share, live, and work together with the other races!" After finishing those words, the Citizens immediately came into a ruckus. Mo Ying continued :"The first people of the Human continents had already gone there, When we we''re getting pushed by the invaders, and the sacred grounds are getting pushed back, the Demon race, and Beast kin went and help us to delay them, even the Beast Kin''s leader died protecting humanity, why are you guys even going mad at something so simple?" The Mountain people immediately nodded, they saw everything that happened that day, they were the first to see the epic battle between their planet and the invaders. the citizens want to rebuke, but seeing that they can''t even come up with anything, they stayed silent. Mo Ying then ended his words :"That is all that master had said, If you have anything else to say, say it now" Mo Ying waited, but there were no response, only sad emotions can be seen, Mo Ying sighed as he said :"The pride of the weak, definitely" Mo ying immediately walked out and headed to his own tent. But He was blocked by someone, yes, It is Lu Piao, Lu Piao immediately said :"I am the 3rd subordinate of master! Lu Piao, you should respect me messanger" Hearing his words, Mo Ying popped a vein in his head, but he immediately calmed down then he said :"I`m the 2nd" then immediately walked past Lu Piao. Lu Piao was dazed, then asked himself ''a Sky establishment realm? 2nd? subordinate?'' he was going mad, with rage, then he suddenly realized ''WAIT! Master also has a normal human''s aura before! maybe senior brother is cultivating it also! so that''s it! he''s hiding his cultivation level but haven''t perfected it yet! OHHHH THAT GLAMOUR! THAT DIGNITY! I WANT IT TOO!, Ahh i need to prove, what I can do to Master, sooner or later'' With that misunderstanding, Lu Piao immediately went behind Mo Ying then said :"Senior brother, I Apologize for my previous manners, I hope to earn your forgiveness!" Mo Ying was shocked ''this guy can have a good character after all, haha guess I can''t be stubborn, he''s still a kid after all'' after thinking like that, Mo Ying replied :"Ok, Good personality, just don''t show off your powers to people, It''s a good thing to be strong, but you need to put it to something, Like master, protecting the weak." Lu Piao''s eyes brightened up !, he thought he had guessed it correctly!, 2nd senior brother is AWESOME!'' then he bowed then said :"Thank you senior brother, I hope that you take care of me in the future" Mo Ying smiled then said :"Good, go and continue cultivating, until master gives you something. i`ve already received something from master, It was a heavenly gift!, you wait for yours, but until then, just be good and cultivate" with that said Mo Ying immediately walked to his tent with happy feeling, he thought ''having a little brother is also good, hohohoho'' Lu Piao seeing the walking dignity of his powerful senior brother smiled brightly, as he returned to his tent, and immediately cultivated. Mo Ying smiled as he held a piece of Mid Level stone, then proceeded to cultivate too. Chapter 53 GOING TO THE DEMON CONTINENT Part 1 Morning came to the city. One by one, the citizens, woke up. they were getting ready to leave, some we''re even indignant about it, but what can they do? if they stay here, they''ll only die. Zhihao and Verushka came out of the manor, after a good nights'' battle, Zhihao immediately placed his spiritual energy to his vocals and said :"If you don''t want to come, you can stay, if you want to follow, we shall go." After waiting for a while, Zhihao nodded, so no one wants to split up, but seriously, more than 40 million people marching, well that''s a laugh. Cultivators from Sky establishment realm or higher are floating in the sky, guarding the normal citizens. Some cultivators from the pack took to their own will to scout in the front, as it would be dangerous if a sudden enemy raid happened. Zhihao led the way with Verushka in front of him, well certainly because he don''t know the way. Zhihao checked for things inside the Shop as they were floating in the sky to their destination. Zhihao looked at Verushka then asked :"Hey, Verushka...." Verushka immediately cut down his words then looked at Zhihao then said :"Call me honey...." Zhihao smiled then said :"Ok, honey, what would you like to use as a weapon? which ones you`d like? sword? fencing sword?" Verushka pondered for a bit, then replied :"I`d like a battle axe, a big one !" Zhihao was shocked, then asked :"Are you sure? not sword? or anything else?" Verushka pouted then said :"Why''d you even ask me if you want to change it into your own preference? Hmmmp!" Zhihao scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, she definitely hit a point. then he said :"Ok, wait up for a bit." Zhihao searched through his quest stores, looking for something good, he kept seeing revealing sets, so he bypassed them quickly, Only he can see his wife''s naked body. after 10 minutes of searching Zhihao finally found something for Verushka.\ Mercurial Apostle Death set (11/11) Merciarial Apostle''s Great Battle axe & Giant strength Gauntlets (Combined effectiveness) Mercurial Apostle''s Battle Dreass Mercurial Apostle''s Chest plate Mercurial Apostle''s Fitness Belt Mercurial Apostle''s Necklace Mercurial Apostle''s Ring Mercurial Apostle''s Boots Mercurial Apostle''s Ribbon Mercurial Apostle''s Gloves Mercurial Apostle''s Striped Undergarment Combined Apostle''s Set effect and attributes : Item Level : 1st grade Grade : Legendary Damage : 7924 - 24,850 Defense : 6,850 Option Granted : When Dealing a critical hit, Leeching 50% of damage dealt Option Granted : Causes bleeding on the spot and deals 2% of User''s current attack power per second.

Zhihao smiled after seeing the stats, then he looked at Verushka then said :"Honey, come here." Verushka frowned then came closer. Zhihao immediately summoned the set and placed it into Verushka 1 by 1. then he said :"Wear this, It''s my wedding gift to you" Verushka blushed immediately after hearing this, then she said :"I can''t" Zhihao sighed, thinking ''you can''t receive a gift from your husband?'' then he said :"Go on, don''t be shy, just equipped them" Zhihao smiled brightly as was a kind angel from the heavens. Verushka smiled then said :"No, I mean, I can''t cha..." but before finishing what she''s saying, she was cut off by Zhihao again. Zhihao said :"Don''t worry about it as I can already buy you something more! even more expensive!" Verushka frowned then shouted, she picked up the great axe and lifted it up with one hand. then she said :"Can''t you wait until I finish speaking!? I CAN''T CHANGE IN THE OPEN STUPID!, why''d you have to ruin the mood, and atmosphere STUPID!" Zhihao was shocked, then yeah, he remembered they we''re flying in the sky. he immediately apologized :"Ahh! honey, I`m sorry, uhh, wait a minute! put down the axe!, uh wait i`ll check for a solution" Zhihao immediately contacted the system then said ''hey! anything i can use? like a portable house?'' *Ding!* =Ofcourse, it costs 1,000,000 Quest points, Proceed? Zhihao was exasperated, but he got no choice at the moment, then he went and proceeded. Zhihao smiled then said :"Honey! here, I got somewhere you can change!" Zhihao immediately Activated the item he bought, didn''t even read the description. immediately, A floating island with a great big mansion bigger than any castles they have seen before has appeared before their eyes. The Citizens was shocked, Zhihao and Verushka too. Verushka asked :"I just needed a little space to change though, why''d you have to put something that big here!" Zhihao scratched his head as he thought of an excuse :"Well, everything I have to give my Wife must be of something with great quality!" Verushka asked :"You`re giving that to me?!" Zhihao was shocked again his words seriously! but he can''t take it back anymore so he nodded and said :"Ofcourse honey!" Verushka was glad but immediately realized something, then asked :"Where''d you get something like this?" Zhihao racked his brain then the system said. *Ding!* =Host can''t let other people discover me yet. Zhihao was shocked then said :''Yet?'' the System didn''t respond, leaving Zhihao bewildered. Zhihao felt sadder, the system can definitely read his mind, and so he said :"Well, I got it in some ruins from some dungeon, from somewhere, when I risked my life that time, Well, I was too pre-occupied with the adventure and found this by accident!, so I forgot where It came from!" Verushka frowned, then said :"If you`re gonna lie, make it believable atleast" Verushka pondered for a bit :"If its something you can''t tell me, just say it, and I already can understand you." Zhihao sighed then smiled, he replied :"Well, yeah, I can''t tell you that yet, but, I guess in the future I will." Verushka removed the pout on her face, then smiled. after that She hugged Zhihao then said :"I`ll go get dressed first." Zhihao stopped her and said :"Honey! which skills would you like to learn?" Verushka frowned again then said :"Now you can actually craft skills for others?" Zhihao scratched her head then just nodded weakly :"Well, something I can''t tell you yet too" Verushka nodded then said :"Okay, Just something to fit me I guess, I don''t have any specifics." Verushka smiled then said :"I`ll go get dressed then!" Verushka Skipped in the air, like there were stairs. Zhihao smiled seeing her figure entering the floating fortress. then immediately continued his search. Chapter 54 GOING TO THE DEMON CONTINENT Part 2 Zhihao browsed the quest store, then found something he felt that Verushka would want. [Void Slip] (Movement technique) [Shattering Void Smash] (Attack skill) [Shadow Duplication] (Active skill) [Gravity Blast] (Attack skill) [Black Hole] (Attack skill) [Linear Void] (Attack skill) [Timely Dodge] (Life Preserving skill) Zhihao smiled seeing this skills, he''s waiting for Verushka to come out now, as he''s too excited to give it to Verushka. 1 hour later..... Zhihao got tired, while dragging the floating Forward. He want to do something. Then he remembered that he haven''t rewarded his subordinates yet! Zhihao thought about the System, then he thought ''System, which items should i gift those two?'' after thinking about Lu Piao and Mo Ying, the system immediately calculated. *Ding!* =Host, Pills, that can help them, It costs more than ingredients, as It is already a finished product Lists of Pills : -Concentrated Cultivation Pill - 1000 points Helps the Cultivator gather 6x the yield with half the effort -Harmonization Pill - 1000 points Blends into the surrounding, and immediately helps the cultivator, to cultivate faster. -Azure Mesmerizing Pill - 1000 points Helps Cultivator enter ''Life Meditation Mode'' increasing cultivation speed by 5x. -Cultivating Marks Pill - 100 points Gives additional Bonus for cultivators. (Same as high level stone in this world) -Golden Pill - 10 points Makes cultivator, cultivate faster through this pill for 1 month. Seeing this, Zhihao got amazed, Why not give other people too right? Zhihao bought -Concentrated Cultivation Pill - 1,000 pcs -Harmonization Pill - 1,000 pcs -Azure Mesmerizing Pill - 1,000 pcs -Cultivating Marks Pill -50,000 pcs -Golden Pill - 1,000,000 pcs Immediately Zhihao spent around 18m points! He spent 1.5m for Verushka''s set and Skills, +100k from the floating castle! then he checked his Quest points left. 1,635,117 LEFT! Zhihao pondered again, then thought clearly, immediately he smiled, well it''s the reward he promised, why be stingy about it. Zhihao immediately thought, and asked the system. ''System, can you distribute this pills to the cultivators? above Earth Establishment realm only'' *Ding!* =Host''s order Acceptable. where to place the pills?. Zhihao smiled then said, after they opened all their hands!, after thinking about that, Zhihao immediately Shouted :"ALL CULTIVATORS! ABOVE EARTH ESTABLISHMENT REALM! OPEN YOUR HANDS, YOUR PALM POINTING THE SKY!" immediately, one by one, pills ran down from their hands, a golden colored pill, while the Cultivating Marks Pill was handed to the Heavenly Establishment Realm experts. Zhihao smiled then said : "You can take those pills, you can either go under me! or you can also have freedom! In the Kingdom i`ll be making. It is your choice, freedom means you can still go to my kingdom, but don''t expect me to nurture you, you can live freely inside the kingdom! the only thing unacceptable there, Would be any kind of Heavy Crimes!" After hearing what Zhihao said, all the cultivators immediately smiled, even the one below Earth Establishment realm smiled! This means they also have a chance to get the resources!, and what''s great! they are doing the things for the Good of many! All of them immediately made a resolution. Zhihao smiled again seeing their reaction, then he said :"These things that i have given you, we''re for the time, where you guys protected the normal Citizens, and the Weak cultivator! Everything has a reward, and also has a punishment!" Verushka heard everything from the floating Fortress, she immediately descended from the fortress, after dressing up for 1 hour and more. she smiled and came closer to Zhihao''s side and leaned on him. Zhihao smiled back then said :"Everything i`ll be doing is for the benefit of our world!" immediately all the cultivators, even the citizens shouted in unison! :"HOAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" That earth shaking shout made a lot of the citizens and weak cultivators immediately lost consciousness. Zhihao didn''t expect this outcome, then he scratched his head then said :"Uhh, you guys, the strong cultivators, carry them up while traveling, seriously, I didn''t even tell you guys to shout that loudly," Zhihao coughed three times then continued :"All of you can continue your registration when I established the Kingdom!" Everyone laughed heartily as they nodded, The bearing of this Supreme ruler of theirs is Supreme, but he still treat them not as a slave or pawns that can be thrown to the battle field and die, but instead Citizens for his kingdom. Zhihao smiled then nodded to them, they continued their travel. Remembering something Zhihao pulled out the skills and handed it to Verushka. Verushka was bewildered and said. :"What''s these strange things?" Zhihao smiled then replied :"Those are skills, come here, i`ll tell you how to use it" After hearing how to use it, Verushka tried it one by one, every time, a warm current flowed through her body, and immediately the skill was already memorized inside her brain. Verushka was more baffled right now and looked at Zhihao. Zhihao shrugged his shoulder then said :"Something I can''t tell you yet" Verushka sighed, then nodded, but she still asked a question :"Are you from God''s realm?" Zhihao smiled then said :"Nope!, hahaha if I can describe it, I`m from a planet where there is only mortals and no cultivation!, hahahaha" Verushka pouted, but seeing that Zhihao is not lying, she''s quite shocked!, a powerful man like this, came from a planet full of mortals and not a single cultivator? then how''d you became strong? Verushka removed the thought and sighed, she''ll just wait until Zhihao opens up on his own, she''s got a lot of time for her own, a few thousand years is not long. Zhihao smiled then comforted the bewildered Verushka then said :"It''s cool, I`m not hiding anything bad from you." Verushka smiled then replied :"I know, you''re not that type of person" she paused and pondered for a bit, then continued :"If you ever dared that is" Zhihao looked at Verushka, as he smiled. After 5 seconds, Verushka and Zhihao laughed together, like a cute high school couple having a sweet conversation. Chapter 55 TROUBLE RISING It''s been around 3 months already when they started the journey going to the Demon city. some people are getting tired, but once in a while, they can see the bases of the enemies stretching out to the sky, the only thing they can do is be resolute enough and not give up. After a while, Zhihao can already see the borders of the demon continent. Zhihao asked Verushka ,:"How long ti`ll we reach the grounds?" Verushka thought for a bit then said :"At least for an hour? or two?, well I haven''t gone there before, with this type of slow pace. So I really can''t measure it." Zhihao pondered for a while then said :" Okay!" Zhihao immediately shouted to the people :"We''re almost there!" then he thought for a while, their rations of food are already almost used up. Zhihao is starting to worry. the Citizens gritted their teeth. they are eating 1/10 of food for themselves, and giving the children and elderly the foods instead. they wanted to make it through, even with water. The cultivators can last longer without food, and thought about giving their foods to the citizens. Immediately one by one, the cultivators summoned their stacks of rice to the normal citizens as they smiled. Every Citizens smiled and cried tears when they saw the foods, and said :"Great lords! please, just a tiny bit, we can''t take everything." The cultivators smiled then said :"It''s ok, its only half of our Rations, and we can last much longer than you guys." The citizens wept tears as they thanked the cultivators. the cultivators are actually giving them all the food they had, which would make them hungry in time too if they don''t reach their destinations yet. Seeing this, Zhihao was full of smiles, seriously, this guys. but after a while, Zhihao felt a strong fluctuation of energy!, three of them, Zhihao looked at Verushka, Verushka noticing Zhihao''s gaze, smiled and nodded, :"Three beings as strong as me, or even stronger." Verushka smiled worriedly. Zhihao nodded then estimated, then he spoke :"I think its to the furthest south. I`m guessing its reinforcements coming from their main planets." Verushka nodded then she replied :"Don''t even think of leaving me here!, if you are thinking like that, just come with me and protect the kingdom!, or just bring me along to cause some major trouble for them." Verushka made a stern face, with full of resolution of not making Zhihao go alone to face the enemies. Zhihao smiled then nodded. Zhihao immediately announced, he focused his spiritual energy to his vocals then said :"We need to rush, and double the phase for a bit, the cultivators should carry the children and elderly" he paused for a bit then continued :"There are Three beings that had descended to our world, at the very least, they are as strong as us. so we need to go double our phase!" Both citizens and cultivators was shocked, the thought that ''beings as strong as their lord? and what''s worst is there is three of them,'' they all witnessed how Zhihao fought with the enemies, but three of those as strong as Zhihao and adding the other strong ones, their heart shuddered as they thought what if their lord was 1v50ed by those enemies and in addition the three strong enemies!. they are doomed!. Zhihao noticing their emotions continued :"Don''t worry, so long as we can go there, we can fend them off!" Zhihao giving them a slight hope is better than nothing, so he just said that. The cultivators immediately lifted the children, and elderly, the female cultivators lifted the women. everyone immediately nodded as they rushed straight forward. Zhihao checked the store for something he can use. after a few minutes he''d searched he found a few things. [Flaming road of destruction] (Attack skill) [Fire ball] (Attack skill) [Heavenly Flame Descend] (Attack skill) [Record of the Burning world] (Attack skill) [Linear ray] (Attack skill) [Nine tailed Lazer] (Attack skill) Zhihao immediately learned all of it and maxed their levels. Verushka just looked at him, then turned around again. _________________________ Within the southern part of the Human Continent. -Markara Azule! Derkados! The Derkados was not satisfied with their performances, they needed to be summoned to a low realm just because the subordinates faced a problem. The HQ Didn''t verify it as there were existance of the same levels as a Derkados so they couldn''t confirm why they''d have to come to a lower realm. They were just asked to go there and confirm the details on spot. One of the Derkados immediately spoke :"WHY!?" One of the Transcendent being replied immediately :"There are two existence of the same level as a Derkados, Markara Azule!" When the Derkados'' heard it, they looked at each other, yeah their superior would definitely be demoted if news got out that an Archon can''t even conquer a lower realm. One of them said :"No news of this should be reported anymore to the HQ, we''ll handle the reports ourselves." The Descended beings nodded and said :"Yes!" One of the Derkados asked :"Where are they ? Where were they headed to?" The Transcendent being replied :"All the survivors of their race had been heading for north" The three Derkados nodded with each other then said :"We''ll check it out now, prepare a stellar ship for us, we`ll need to use it" The Transcendent being replied immediately :"Yes!" Chapter 56 FLAMES BEFORE THE OASIS The Derkados, immediately ordered :"Get me us a chip for their language, We''ll set out immediate" The Transcendent Being immediateny nodded and got the chip and handed it to the Derkados ________________ Zhihao and the rest immediately rushed towards the direction of the Sacred ground. After a few minutes, they can already see the Sacred ground''s silhouette, the cultivators in the sky was also excited!. Zhihao announced immediately :"The Sacred ground is just a few kilometers away! We need to make haste!" But after just saying that Zhihao felt something, three energy fluctuations can be sensed from the distance coming from south!. Zhihao shouted :"Be Desperate! the enemies are coming, I`ll hold those three, Cultivators! do your best and get reinforcements inside to help the normal citizens go to the Sacred Grounds! IMMEDIATELY!" the cultivators wanted to stay and help, but what kind of help, can a weak being like them do?, they prided themselves as one of the standing pillars of the continent, but witnessing their powerlessness even against the soldiers, they woke up from their dreams. The cultivators teared up, and nodded before answering :"Yes, My lord!" Zhihao sensed it and was preparing to go, but someone held his sleeves. It was Verushka, She immediately said :"Bring Me ALONG." saying this in a single stone. Zhihao sighed and knew he can''t leave her, and definitely she won''t like it if he further disagreed. Zhihao immediately kissed Verushka''s forehead then said :"Just stay close to me, I cant have you get hurt!" Zhihao sincerely warned her. Verushka blushed then said :"What are you worrying about? I was stronger than you months ago!" Zhihao smiled then said :"That''s months ago", after saying that, Zhihao smiled towards Verushka, He held her in her waist, then flew towards the south. Seeing their lord''s figure had disappeared, the cultivators immediately rushed towards the Sacred grounds. ______________________________ The Sacred grounds (Verushka''s) Wu Tianwu and the rest of the Sacred ground Heads looked at the south, They immediately noticed thousands of thousands of cultivators flying towards them at their maximum speed. Wu Tianwu was bewildered, then was surprised the next instant! then said :"HUMANS!, HUMAN CULTIVATORS!" The other head of the sacred grounds in the human continent, was cheering inside, ''more of their brothers and sisters have come!'' but immediately all of them frowned, as they saw the faces of the cultivators. although it was a few kilometers away yet, but as a cultivator in a divine realm, his senses were already enhanced. specially when they can focus their spiritual energy to parts of their bodies. But Wu Tianwu saw as they were giving everything they got, when he saw one of the Sky Establishment fell from the sky, he immediately prepared to rush to them!, but one of his comrade caught him and lend him a hand!, that''s extreme exhaustion due to forcefully consumming their spiritual energy! Lu Piao came first to the sacred grounds, and he said :"Pant... pant.. pant... The... Pant... Lord!...." before saying anything else, Ying Mai approached Lu Piao and handed him something to drink. then she said :"Drink first, and try to calm down before speaking!" then she continued "Calm down the incoming Cultivators immediately! Receive them!" after speaking, Thousands of divine origin realm cultivators stopped the rushing cultivators from outside. trying to calm them up! one of the Divine origin realm caught and stopped one then said :"Brothers! stop! you`re already safe!, calm down, one of your brothers is already there trying to explain things!." The cultivators cried and tried to gain more spiritual energy, preparing to go back, and help the cultivators, as such all of them even the exhausted ones meditated while slowly descending to the land. Lu Piao immediately said :"Please help! we need help! citizens! 40million citizens! our Lord and mistress is supressing the chaser, while giving us time to get here! they are holding the enemy! please i beg you! help the citizens! that''s our lord''s wish!" Wu Tianwu, Ying Mai, Xiao, Long Sun, Xiong, and Lu Xioutan immediately ordered everyone. :"All Divine Origin realm and above! quickly help the citizens! sky and heavenly establishment realm! follow them through your own speed! BE SURE TO SAVE THOSE CITIZENS, AND TRY TO DO IT WITH CALM! WE CAN''T LET ANYONE BE EXHAUSTED IN MID FLIGHT!" immediately all the subordinates answered :"Yes!" then immediately went to fly in the direction of south. The Citizens inside are cheering, More of their race are coming! HurraH!. immediately Lu Piao, was going to be left alone , as Ying Mai and the rest would also help out too. Lu Piao sighed with a relieved expression, but suddenly someone approached him, and looked at him directly. It was Mengkou, he said :"Kid, what happened to our Lord?" Lu Piao asked questioningly :"Lord?" Mengkou lightly lifted his brows, then asked again :"The one protecting the city when you arrived, the a woman, in human''s age is about 13 or 14, i think." Lu Piao, thought to himself '' OH! the mistress!, eh? wait? The mistress? Isn''t she human? Whaa? then the lord? Is he human or Demon? they? tricked me? wait, This guy said that he only had one Lord, and it''s the woman, then our Lord definitely is not with them, and definitely not the beast kin!'' then he remembered something, then he immediately said to mengkou :"She''s fighting together with our lord!, there were three of them, and they said that those three are as strong as she is, or even stronger!" Mengkou''s eyes widened in shock stronger than their master? then? is it the end? Lu Piao saw his eyes, then patted his shoulder and said :"Don''t worry, your master and my master are strong, they said they can handle it, they''ll only hold out until the civilians are safe and rush back to here!" Mengkou hearing this has his eyes brightened up then shouted at Lu Piao :"Why''d you didn''t say that earlier!" Mengkou hearing those, immediately went and flew towards the strongest one of them, and clarify the information with him. A shout was heard within a minutes time. It was Val''Kizar the second in command when Verushka is out :"ALL DEMON BEAST ABOVE HEAVENLY ESTABLISHMENT REALM! HELP THE HUMANS SAVE THEIR CITIZENS! IMMEDIATELY! THIS IS AN ORDER FROM OUR LORD!" Immediately millions of silhouette flew towards south, as they were desperate to save the citizens, if its an order from their lord, there must be something about it. then in the Corner of the castle within the a silhouette opened her eyes, and her ears kept going "Puchik! Puchik!" as it moved up and down then she said :"Ahh! Sis Veru is back!" Chapter 57 GROUND SHAKING FIGHT! Back to our MC. Zhihao held Verushka''s hand lovingly as they awaited the arrival of the three great beings. immediately three Space ships were nearing them, there were four sword like things floating beside the ships, when it came a hundred meters away from them, It finally stopped. after the ship stopped the Crystalic capsule opened. One by one, there are beings getting out of the ship. three of them. One of them spoke, :"Greetings inhabitants of this world, We''re Derkados hmm In your terms, It should be supreme ruler or something? as we have the same power level as you. My name is Zer" Then another one Spoke, :"I am Tul" Then another one followed up :"I am Rah" Zer made a happy smile with his eyes then said :"We''re the invader''s of your planet, I hope you don''t mind our impoliteness" saying that while Shrugging his head. Zhihao replied immediate :"Then, you wouldn''t mind if I chase you out of our planet too right?, well your builds seemed like usable to us, I might have further uses for it in the future" Tul and Rah immediately snorted then said :"hmmp, an arrogant fellow, If an Archon had descended onto this plain, you would`ve already perished you inso...." but before Finishing Zhihao cut him out. Zhihao snorted back and smiled, then he said :"luckily there are only you three no? Lucky for us here then! they sent weaklings!" Tul, Zer, and Rah immediately shouted :"STOP!" Zer continued :"Let''s just fight, inhabitant, let''s do some warm up!" Zhihao snorted and shrugged his shoulders then said :"Well, that was why I waited here!, but you guys talked too much!" Verushka giggled when she heard Zhihao said it, he''s becoming good day by day for bad mouthing his enemies. The three derkados immediately frowned, Zer replied :"Good, let us have a warm up then!" Immediately after saying that, Zer, and Tul rushed towards Zhihao, as Rah charged at Verushka. Zhihao noticing this, immediately said :"Don''t get hurt, I can''t stop worrying if you get pushed back" Verushka blushed then nodded, she replied :"Okay" Zhihao immediately casted his active skills then activated one more : "[HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL]!." Luckily for verushka, There were no grounds, as she face planted in mid air! after just a second, she immediately calmed down and focus on Rah. Zhihao held the hilt of his sword and immediately : "[Heavenly Flash Sword]!" Zer Blocked Zhihao''s skill, immediately Tul brought out his weapon, a Scythe, He rushed to hit Zhihao''s head. Zhihao Blocked immediately then said :"Ehh? directly hitting the vital point? that''s wicked!" Tul smiled then said :"I know, right?" then he immediately followed up with a barrage of hits aiming at his head, Zer followed up immediately and drew his Scythe too, but it has a weird shape, as It''s has a blade in both of its ends!. Zer immediately followed up as he let his Scythe dance in his hand coming to Zhihao. Zhihao saw it as a bad omen. He withdrew another sword from his inventory and immediately equipped it. but before he could counter attack. they heard a Wild scream. "AHHHHHHHHH!! MY ARMS!!!" it was Rah, His arms had been dismembered! and its already falling out. Zer and Tul immediately noticed this, as they looked at each other then decided to retreat for now, If they lose Rah too early, they might be in trouble later. Zer and Tul immediately said to Zhihao :"We would like to continue this inhabitant of this world, but I guess we''ve underestimated your companion." after saying that, They both went to Rah as fast as they could and pulled him back. Zhihao wanted to stop them and say something, but they already went inside their ships. and immediately went to south. Zhihao said lowly in his voice, :"But I haven''t started yet..." then he looked at Verushka with a puppy eyes, then he saw Verushka was shocked as well. Zhihao sighed then said :"What happened?" Verushka woke up from his call, then said :"I don''t really know, he was blocking my axe with his arms, it was like his 10th time already, but, then i noticed that the Great axshone darkly then it just went straight through his arms, like a hot knife, to a cold butter thingy" Zhihao sighed then said, :"That''s the skill of your weapon, it''s called [Severing blow], it has a random chance of severing anything, when you hit it, a random chance. well let''s go to the sacred ground, they are waiting." Verushka nodded then they flew back immediately to the sacred grounds. ________________________ After entering, the Citizens Zhihao bought immediately clasped their hands and said :"Lord! thank you for being safe!, Long live the lord!" Zhihao only nodded, but what Zhihao did first was to find his wives, he immediately Shouted :"Ning''er!, Xiao''er! where are you! Zhong Clan!, Shen Clan!, Ling Clan!" The survivors looked at Each other then one of them spoke out. :"There are no Zhong, Ling and Shen clan that came here when we first arrived the first time!" they replied as this is a strong person. it would be rude if none replied. Zhihao was shocked and felt down... Verushka noticing this Summoned the Floating Fortress immediately as she said :"Don''t worry, I Think my 1st and 2nd sister are alright!, if they went north, They must''ve been the first ones, and since they didn''t know that Demon race and Beast kin''s are helping the human race, I think they just dodged this route, we''ll search for them tomorrow, it''s getting dark! i`ll help you! I PROMISE! Just, let us rest first Okay? we''ll go to the floating Fortress for now." Zhihao hearing calmed down a bit, then nodded, he immediately said :"To All the inhabitants, we''ll announce something tomorrow, rest early and tomorrow morning we''ll start our discussion, It''s getting dark now!." after going inside Verushka said :"Honey, I`ll try my best to lift your mood up tonight, so why won''t you rest and let me help you ease your pain a little?" Verushka asked in a charming and caring voice. Zhihao noticing this, immediately felt warm, she''s doing this for him, because he is currently down. he smiled then said :"Don''t worry, after we find them we can join together!, but tonight i`ll spoil you a lot!" Zhihao smiled sadly first, then finally easen up as he moved to Verushka. Within that Floating fortress, two bodies were joined together as one. A fragrant aroma formed from the mixture of sweat and juices was being emanated from the house, causing a weird scent to float around the room as they started their business. Verushka was shocked by the sudden event then said gently : "O!!..OUCH¡­!" Zhihao was shocked, wasn''t the 3rd time suppose to not hurt as much? then he said :"Ah, I''ll be gentler then." Verushka blushed, and tried to cover her face with the cover, then said :"N...NO!! Do it like¡­just now¡­" Zhihao was bothered, then he said : "Wasn''t it painful?" Verushka blushed again from her neck to forehead as she said : "Not anymore¡­ Idiot! stop making me say weird things!" Zhihao was shocked again, then he smiled as he said :"Yes'' Milady!" Plak! plak! plak! Piak! Piak! Piak! Plap! plap! plap! You can Hear different kinds of sound thunder clapping in the heavens! ..... The Citizens of Sacred grounds Demon Race, Human Race, and Beast kin were ready to enter their Sleeping mode and recharge themselves for the challenges of the next day. But just as they were about to fall asleep, a series of weird noises permeated their ears. a random citizen said as they were bewildered :"What was that sound?" It was a combination of a male and female voice¡­ And it seemed to be coming from the direction of Floating Fortress¡­ Even though the sound was a little dull, there was a mysterious force behind it that seemed to be causing them to feel a little¡­hot inside. Wu Tianwu and the other sacred ground Masters were at their own lodges right now. It was their first time hearing these sounds, But as time went on, the sounds seemed to be growing more and more outrageous. They might have been able to hide it off at the start. But right now, the sounds were absolutely unbridled, as if everyone within the world had disappeared in the eyes of those two. "It''s been 2 hours¡­!" Ying Mai was blushing from her neck to her forehead then she continued :"At least they should rest, or if they don''t want to rest, Let us rest! Urggg, Maybe i should find a husband soon too...." Chapter 58 ESTABLISHING AN EMPIRE! after 4 more hours, two demon beast immediately looked at the Floating Fortress, its Val''Kizar, and his second hand man, Val''Kraz. Val''Kizar spoke sadly :"Our lord, has finally found a leader, but I wish she could let our subordinates sleep, they''ve been doing it for a long while now, and the weak humans haven''t even slept yet. It Pains me to see this." Val''Kraz smiled sadly too :"Well, Our princess has finally became a butterfly I guess, well, Let us just wait for the announcement." after saying that, Val''Kraz smiled and shrugged his shoulders'' Val''Kizar replied and said :"well, lets just wait." ____________________________________ After 10 hours, the war finally stopped, and when the Humans noticed it, they immediately fell asleep, as It was already 4 AM in the morning, One after the other. The lights inside the houses vanished as they sleep. Verushka and Zhihao also followed up as they sleep as well,Zhihao was holding Verushka''s waist, while Verushka is having an Arm pillow. ___________________________________ Morning had come It was 9 AM in the morning. Zhihao and Verushka took their baths, and immediately dressed up to welcome the crowds. They both had Descended from the Floating fortress down to Verushka''s Castle. but Verushka noticed that only a few came, as all of them are powerful cultivators with the minimum of Divine Origin realm(Because they don''t need much sleep, Sleeping is just a form of habit, and relaxation for them). Verushka called out :"Val''Kizar!" Immediately, A silhouette formed besides her and replied :"Lord, This one is here for your commands" Verushka nodded and looked at him sternly, then said :"Where are the citizens!, TELL ME NOW!" Val''Kizar was shocked and was happy at the same time! Their master had grown stronger! much, much stronger than before!, then he replied :"Master!, uhh, this....well" Verushka frowned then said :"Why are you stuttering? since when did you become like that! Tell me now!" Val''Kizar immediately smiled then nodded, he replied :"Master! replying to you! because of the noises that Master and uhh, your husband last night! the Citizen''s couldn''t sleep until It was almost dawn!" Verushka frowned, and like a stone, didn''t move for a few seconds, then a slightly as it seems, her face and neck started to be pink, until it became red! she immediately looked at Zhihao with tears in her eyes. Zhihao also blushed, and thought ''were they that loud? well it was silent outside, and we''re in the air so i thought it wouldn''t sound below" then Zhihao sighed then said to Val''Kizar :"please reschedule the announcement in the afternoon, when the sun is at its highest point." Val''Kizar wanted to rebuke but remembering that this is their Master''s husband, he replied :"Yes!" Zhihao dragged the frozen Verushka back to the Floating castle. After reaching their room, Verushka immediately became unfrozen, as she cried to Zhihao :"NOOO!!!, My image! my image as a ruler!" Zhihao don''t know how to comfort her then he just said :"Well, i`ll be the one ruling from now on, so you could just relax right?" Zhihao patted her head as he tried to comfort her. Verushka thought for a while then said :"Okay!, lets do that then!" ______________________ Within the Afternoon, the Citizens and cultivators, Demon Race and Beast kin alike had gathered outside the castle, an astounding number of people! Close to 5billion!. Zhihao started his words :"First of all, those that don''t wanna come under my Empire!, can also build cities nearby!, and you would also be free to enter my Empire!, with the Addition of entrance Fee, but you`ll need to pay us tax for protection, until you guys can protect yourselves. As such, I`ll establish My Empire Today! alot of the Kings from their continents immediately wanted to establish their own kingdoms, but seeing their followers staying within the empire. what can they even offer, they like to ask their ancestors how they established their kingdoms before. but there were lots of King''s that are already going out readying themselves to establish a new kingdom of their own, and having thousands of followers too, at that. Zhihao followed up with :"Don''t go too far, or else we might be late in protecting your Kingdom when the enemies had arrived!" Hearing this, the Kings immediately bowed their heads and thanked Zhihao from the bottom of their hearts. Zhihao informed them another news :"Alright! now that, that issue has been resolve, We shall now start ourselves with some establishment! First off build buildings! for Alchemist guild, Weapon guild, Market, Adventure''s guild, and build Boards of Notifications and quest within every streets of the empire!, Also some Inscription guild, Appraisal guild, and Auction houses!" after hearing the words of Zhihao, the normal Citizens immediately sighed as they shook their heads, they don''t have anything to do, to help him. after saying those, Zhihao added some things for the Normal Citizens. Zhihao immediately shouted :"Normal cultivators! Clean some fields! for production uses! assign people that like to occupy those spaces, and Also, normal citizens can work through the facilities that would be established!" The citizen''s eyes suddenly brightened, they thought that they would be left out to die!, but the lord seriously cared for all of them, they silently vowed from the bottom of their hearts, to follow this lord. Zhihao continued :"Check for all the rivers and forest nearby for Monsters, and clear them if there are any. check if there is any edible food for the citizens to hunt, oh, and also Make a lumber mill besides the forest, and also start creating ways, paths connecting each other to this city. ___________________ Back within the South. Lokratiz Soaran''s HQ. There is a silhouette in the dark, It is Zer , he spoke :"Archon, I think we''re not enough, That two person is stronger than their report, if It''s a false report, i would`ve been glad, but I think, that, every time that passes by, Their power is growing strong" Archon frowned as he shook his head, he said :"I`ll make ten more Derkados immediately, or more, Just keep sending me updates now and then" Zer immediately sighed and said :"Markara Azule! Archon" Archon sighed, "is this the end of me, for me to be blocked by what I thought was a minor problem, If I leave my post, i`ll immediately be questioned." Chapter 59 IN THE NORTH In only a month''s time, everything that Zhihao had ordered was finished immediately. and every post has been occupied, he set up some taxes, and such. All the able citizens had been given a job, and children and elderly can live peacefully. Zhihao woke up early, He saw Verushka''s face then kissed her forehead, and then he went to the terrace to see the empire''s development. Zhihao noticed that the Children are being too free, Zhihao thought of things that they could do, in a children state to help the empire in the future. he thought of a lot of possibilities. Like building a sect, to nurture them, or maybe an academy, or training ground.... he pondered deeply for this. Verushka woke up and stretched her tiny arms. She immediately noticed that Zhihao is in the terrace, thinking about something. Verushka smiled then wrapped her body with the silk bed sheet. and went to Zhihao. Zhihao noticed that Verushka is coming, so he smiled then stopped all his thoughts immediately. Verushka started a conversation, when he noticed Zhihao smiling at him :"So what are you thinking?." Zhihao smiled then replied to her :"Just thinking, what kind of thing should I do with the children." Verushka tilted her head then said :"Just let them do what they want, right? when they become an adult, they''ll lose the privilege of freedom and will be locked down by responsibility, so just let them enjoy it while they can." Zhihao was shocked! Although he was also considering what''s good for the children, what Verushka said definitely made sense! then like a bolt of lightning an idea struck his head! Zhihao exclaimed :"A PARK!" Verushka was bewildered with it, but she just smiled and hugged his arms. Immediately, Zhihao announced :"I`d like to build something! Someone come to the castle." although millions wanted to participate, only a thousand men was chosen, in a first come first serve basis. Zhihao explained everything to them in a giffy of what he wanted to do. the flattening and molding of the ground was immediately made. and Zhihao placed a sign here too, saying "Freedom is for you, and you can come here to play!, play, until one day you can''t! Responsibility is a big word, for all the people in this world, As such. please treasure all those that you have gained while you still have freedom." __________________________ The rest of Zhihao''s Quest points was spend on buying Alchemist low level recipe, Inscription low level recipe, Weaponry recipe, and a lot more, He even bought grains to start his productions. Leaving him with 200k Points left!. Then Zhihao wanted to talk to Verushka about something, but Verushka halted him, and said :"We should find your wives and family now, The people can already manage this, so let''s leave them be for now, Let them do everything on their own, just think of it as letting them handle the matters and judge if you see it fit., so we should start now, let us search for them, I want to see first and second sisters now, and be introduced to your family." Zhihao nodded then they immediately went away without warning the whole Empire. _________________________ Somewhere in the far north. There was a Cultivator in Legendary Mights Realm, Rushing!, he detected the strong spiritual fluctuation here, and traveled thousands of miles just to come here, he is Han Wentian, He felt that the energy came from someone not from their world! and whats worst, there are five of them. But as Han Wentian was rushing further south, He found people walking in the mountains! Finally the first people he saw after 1 month of flying!, and what''s more there are atleast 800,000 of them! or more!. Immediately Han Wentian went down and said :"Hello, I`ve came from the Other continent, uhhm, its harder to explain, but, for about 420,000 miles there is like, uhhh, ahh! an Island as big as yours! We call it continent! ahh wait, can you guys understand me?" Then a woman, holding a child spoke, :"Yes we can understand you, but I hope you won''t block our way, as we seek refuge to a safer place." Han Wentian was shocked! What a beautiful lady!, but he has responsibilities! and that is to save as many people as he can!. he immediately replied :"I`m trying to help you guys!, i`ll just ask then, what happened to your continent? how come I can feel foreign energies, that doesn''t belong to our world" The woman spoke again :"Because there are invaders, and we''re already safe, so no thanks" then another woman spoke :"Please don''t bother us further, as we''re also waiting for our husband" Han Wentian sighed, he really wanted to get along with them, but he''s a man of just, So he can''t really force anyone, It''s against his codes of conduct!, then he said :"Please, just take this stone, then if anyone''s in at least Sky Establishment realm, you guys can crush it, then I can choose wether or not to go to your location, so if you crush it, I can immediately know you guys are in trouble, At least let me do something like this." The two ladies sighed then said :"Ok, Just please don''t bother us further, we''ll ask for help when we need one okay?" the two ladies immediately walked away from him and continued their journey. Han Wentian smiled then said :"Thank you." after saying that he immediately continued south. a semingly fat man, but was well built, spoke to the two ladies :"My Ladies!, you should''ve at least made him search for Master!, then say we''ll destroy the stone in a month of half a year!, so if he have a news, we can know!" The two Ladies spoke in unison, :"We trust our husband Butler Ma!, he can''t die without seeing his children!, so we trust him with all our might" an Aura of two Divine spirit realm exuded immediately out of their bodies, Then one of the Ladies continued :"Butler ma, We know you worry about our husband, the same as we do, but sadly you don''t trust him much," she paused then continued :"He''ll just come out one day and say ''Yo! what''s up, It''s been a long time!'' then asked about our child" the muscled fatty replied immediately :"My apologies Madames, I couldn''t see your views yet with Master, but i`ll try harder in the future!" boom immediately an Aura was unlished from that fat man, the aura of Divine origin body, then he continued :"I`ll train harder, so that next time, Master needs my help, I could lend a hand!" The two ladies nodded and proceeded towards north. The Wives and the In-Laws was told the young master that they were heading north, so they won''t change it unless they find a sanctuary for them and wait for him, IN THE NORTH. Chapter 60 20 VS 3 Zhihao immediately prepared and set out north together with Verushka. after immediately leaving Verushka''s Sacredground, they searched the grounds for possible clues. After searching the ground for a few minute, Zhihao and Verushka felt an energy coming to them at a fast phase, although this energy comes from a Legendary Might Realm cultivator, it''s far weaker than the three guys Zhihao and Verushka fought, so they didn`t think much about him and just wants to see who it is. After a few more minutes, a black dot that''s getting bigger and bigger showed itself on the horizon, Zhihao and Verushka waited until the figure was close enough. When it entered 10 meters away from the both of them, It finally stopped. then he said :"Good day to you all, I am Han Wentian! I came from the other side of this world, the next continent after your." Hearing his words, Zhihao and Verushka looked at each other then looked at Wentian without speaking anything. This reaction made Wentian really awkward as he''s a very friendly person, he continued :"I felt the fluctuation of five spiritual energy from your continent, well that''s when I figured out that there will definitely be a continent here. I guess my intuition is right on spot" still there are no reaction but the strange look in their eyes, then Wentian continued :"The other three seemed foreign, so I rushed here, thinking that I could help, Do you know where those five energies are now?" Zhihao finally gave up then said :"Well, we''re two of those five energies, but we don''t really need anymore help, I think we can deal with them, You coming here might ruin your own continent though, what if they invade it while you are gone?" Han Wentian smirked then said :"Don''t worry about it, Our continents were originally connected, but the ancestors of our land wanted to keep peace as his top priority, so he dislocated your continents to ours, and two more, also he left us with a defensive array that even 500 of me together can''t leave a dent to it." Zhihao was shocked, then recovered, he continued :"well thats good then, I`ll be going and search for some people" Zhihao was preparing to leave with Verushka. then Han Wentian spoke :"Wait! Are you guys....." Before finishing his words, they all felt extreme fluctuations of energy! the foreign energies of the enemies! and an additional 18 of them! Zhihao sighed then said :"Honey, I think we`ll be staying after all, They are already on their way here" Verushka smiled then lean onto Zhihao''s shoulders. Han Wentian was bewildered, there are 18 new foreign energies, the same strength that the first three from before have!, if you total it up there are 21 of them!, so why are they so calm! he thought that he could at the very least even the odds of 3 vs 3, but now it became 21 vs 3. Han Wentian was falling into a dillemma then he noticed the two still flirting with each other waiting for their arrival. then Zhihao spoke :"If you are afraid, you can return to your safe haven, that way, it can prevent them from breaking through" Han Wentian woke up, yeah! he came here to support not to even the numbers now! then he said :"Hmmmp! You belittle me friend, I am a man of honor, If I die here today, then so be it! but i`ll die protecting this world!, It goes with my principle after all" Zhihao smiled then thought to himself ''Not a bad character there.'' then he looked at Verushka then said :"Let''s be ready" Verushka nodded then pulled out her Great ax out of the spatial ring she have. Han Wentian was shocked, the energy coming from that weapon is too oppressing even for him! he smiled and shook his head, but after thinking that the surprise is over, Zhihao pulled another sword other than his Flame Emperor sovereign sword, and the aura it released was not much different from Verushka''s. [Meteoric Heavenly Sacred Sword] (Mythical) Han Wentian''s jaws were hitting his feet immediately! two sacred treasured weapons! Han Wentian couldn''t do anything but sigh with envy. then he said :"Let us die or live after this! Lets drink afterwards, is that ok for you both?" Verushka ignored him and positioned herself to Zhihao''s right side. Zhihao nodded then said :"Sure, let''s settle that after we survive this." With that Wentian nodded, and pulled his Moon star out, its a spiky type weapon. Zhihao smiled then said :"Not bad, a heavenly rate weapon." Wentian sighed, well you guys got a weapon that is 100 times more better than mine. he sighed then smiled at Zhihao. immediately 20 spaceships approached them and immediately stopped at 30 meters away from Zhihao''s group. one by one they got out of the ships they were in. then one of them spoke. It was Zer, the one they fought before :"Hello Inhabitants, as you know, our friend Rah wouldn''t be able to attend today, we''d like to fight it out today, Would it be possible?" then he looked at Han Wentian, as he saw the weirdly shaped weapon, he pondered if it has some kind of effects itself. Zhihao snorted then replied :"So long as this time, you leave your lives here, that would be fine, I can''t let you running like the last time." After saying that, Zhihao threw a Sacred Origin pill to Han Wentian then said :"You can only use it once, and that''s when you`re about to die. save it because that''s the only time you that medicine will be effective" Zhihao immediately casted his [Burning path of the Flame Sovereign] then he charged directly to Zer''s position. Immediately some of the enemies started their defensive formation, while some of them immediately came to the back and prepared to attack. ______________________ Outside the cultivation realm there were three silhouettes roaming through the galaxies. then they noticed a weak fluctuation inside one of the planets close by. One of them spoke :"Oh! isn''t that the empress'' chosen planet? she sent her daughter there and planted a seed right?" It was a seductive voice, with alluring tone. another one of the silhouettes replied then said :"I think so too Matriarch" the tone was too heavy as such, this voice definitely came from an old man. then the Matriarch spoke again :"Ohh, Interesting, Want to watch?" she spoke flirtatiously as she said those words. The other two silhouettes sighed, even if they didn''t want to, what can they even do. The two Silhouettes nodded and followed the Matriarch to the Direction of Zhihao''s World! Chapter 61 2 DOWN Fluctuations of two different kinds of energy were shooting out violently clashing with one another. the twenty beings, versus the three beings from this world. Zhihao immediately provoked :"I can''t see that other one, that my wife dealt with, the one that is missing the arm, you know him right? uhh his name should be rash?" Zhihao snickered after saying those words. Immediately the twenty got enraged. and charged at them immediately. Zer shouted :"The mistakes we made that time would never be repeated!" he charged directly to Zhihao''s direction as he Wielded his spear, and within his back, there are 12 that is following his charge. Zhihao smirked as he wielded his swords, he charged forward and cut off the path of the other 7 that was aiming at Verushka''s and Wentian''s direction. Zhihao wanted a 20 vs 1 confrontation, while Verushka and Wentian are covering his back with their skills. Zhihao engaged and tried his best to block their path. Zer and Tul got enraged as they said :"You are getting too arrogant inhabitant! You can''t take us all alone!" Zhihao smirked then rebuked :"Less Barking! More Actions!" he immediately charged forward as he strike and defend at the same time with his dual swords. _______________________ In the sky, three concealed silhouettes are watching the fight. The matriarch spoke :"Ohh, not bad for a kid, he looked nice too, I can feel the god realm''s power within him, is that the kid that the empress has chosen? or is it the princess''?" The man beside her spoke :"Matriarch, I think that kid is not likely the one that the Empress has chosen, Most likely it was the princess that Chose that kid" the other man nodded when he saw the Matriarch glanced at him. The Matriarch spoke :"You!, I didn''t bring you here to nod at whatever he says! why aren''t you suggesting anything? you`re being too useless" That silent man scratch his head awkwardly as he stared at the man that spoke before. That Man sighed as he didn''t even know how to get on the good side of the matriarch, then said :"Matriarch, this Fen Duan has little words, so I Fen Mo Shan begs Matriarch in his stead" The Matriarch sighed then said :" Forget it, Forget it, Let''s just watch this fun" ______________________ Zhihao immediately focused his powers within his sword and immediately attacked the three enemies. Zhihao''s wild attack was not expected by the enemies and couldn''t immediately go to their defensive position. One of them was hit immediately at the head, as it sliced half of his body from head to toe like a hot knife slicing a cold butter. Zer and the others immediately shouted :"KER! NO!" Although they are invaders, they too have camaraderie between them. They fought countless numbers of battles as a soldier and to where they are now. All of them immediately exploded, their expressions are darkened to the extreme as killing intent filled the surroundings. Zhihao smiled as he provoked :"One down! Next!" Tul immediately dashed forward with eyes widely open looking at Zhihao like a pig ready to be chopped down! Zhihao dodged to the side as he looked at the other enemies, Tul saw that zhihao wasn''t paying attention to him, He was immediately enraged as he prepared to charge towards Zhihao again. But he heard the others shouting at him :"TUL! RUN!" Then Tul noticed a shadow forming in his Scythe, then he looked at his back. an Inhabitant is there slowly descending her great big battle ax downwards. Tul sweated for the first time in his life. and tried to block the ax with his Scythe. but it was too late! Verushka smiled as her Great Ax had descended to Tul`s face, immediately cutting Tul in half. Zhihao spoke :"Two down, 18 to go" Zhihao smirked as Verushka went behind him and held his hands. Verushka made a reaction, She pulled the skin below her eyes, and showed her tongue then said :"Bleeee! 18 more left!" Immediately Zer and the others rushed madly, as blue colored fluids ran down from their eyes, it was their blood. they are totally enraged now! Zhihao only smirked then said :"Oi, oi? mad now? well you`ve killed more people than we''ve killed from yours. why you mad bruh?" Verushka immediately went a few meters away from Zhihao waiting to strike another one of them. Zer didn`t understand much of Zhihao''s words, but every time Zhihao spoke, He got mad, and that''s the only thing that matters, he''s mad, he attacks! Zer and the others clash with Zhihao, as Tech based realm like them, they lacked skills so much. they only know fighting style, as such, their energy was all focused on their physical bodies. Zer kept pushing himself and the others to their utter limits, just to land one of their blows to deal damage to Zhihao. But to the true fact, Zhihao''s spiritual energy is running fast. With the continues usage of his [Handsome circle skill] continuesly draining his spiritual energy. he''s on the edge too. ___________________________ Outside the battle up in the sky the silhouettes spoke again. The Matriarch spoke :"That guy, He has the same cultivation level as them, All of which is Legendary Mights Realm, but he can deal with twenty of them, thats weird even with the help of god''s blood coursing through his veins." The other two nodded then Fen Mo Shan replied :"Matriarch, I think it''s his equipment and his skills, he''s dodging the enemies just 0.1 seconds before his enemies'' weapon closes at him. avoiding the danger from the other 18," The Matriarch nodded then said :"That''s good, but how long can he keep up" she paused then said :"There are a group of people heading towards that direction(North), Fen Duan go checked at them, see if there are any good people that has a good bodily constitution that suits me to have a dual cultivation with" Fen Duan nodded and went straight to the north part of the continent. Chapter 62 CRISIS Zhihao deactivated his [Handsome Circle skill] and immediately drew out his swords. Zhihao spoke :"Well, Aren''t you guys exhausted too? want to brawl it out?" When Zer and the others heard his provocation, They immediately got enraged and charged. Zer said :"Let''s see how long can you last!" Zer and the others immediately went for the kill. Seeing this, Zhihao kept dodging. Verushka noticed that Zhihao''s spiritual energy is running out. She immediately dragged 4 enemies to her to fight. Han Wentian finally woke up, he immediately went and helped Zhihao, but with his equipments and weapon he only dragged out two of the enemies. Zer immediately informed two of his comrades :"Go back to the HQ, tell them of the situation, If we don''t come back, Just conclude that we''re already dead." after saying that, he immediately focused dealing with Zhihao. The other two nodded with gritted teeth, they were comrades too, but they don''t want their sacrifices to be in vain. as such they went back to their ships, and returned to the HQ. _______________________ In the farther sky, the figure looked at the retreating figures. Matriarch just snorted then said :"Give me a pebble" Fen Mo Shan nodded, he blurred for half a second and said :"Here it is Matriarch" handing two pieces of pebbles, Mo shan retreated to her back. Matriarch harrumphed then said :"hmmp, Running while your numbers are in your favor, you guys should just die" after finishing her words, she flicked the pebbles straight to the two ships. The two ships immediately exploded. like they were hit by a very strong projectile. Zer immediately felt that his comrades had died again. as such. he focused with Zhihao with everything he got. he imagined that Zhihao did something to his two comrades. the Matriarch smiled then said :"Oh, They want to end it after I killed their comrades? that''s hot d*mn!" Fen Mo Shan just coughed hearing her words and looked at the fight. Zhihao''s becoming desperate, and when he saw that Verushka is also having trouble, he immediately took another Sacred Origin Pill, and Activated his [Handsome Circle Skill]. recovering his HP and Mp, He immediately casted all his skills and spammed [Heavenly Flash sword]. Zhihao took out another 5 of them within a minute, but Zhihao was once again exhausted, he looked at Zer then spoke :"Let''s finish this" Zhihao smiled like the devil itself. Zhihao immediately launched himself to Zer and the rest as he exchanged blows with them. Verushka had already dealt with the three enemies, all three times activating her Great Ax''s special skills. But she''s already too exhausted. She looked at Zhihao as she sighed. She might die today. but the only thought in her mind right now is to ease her husband''s trouble. She sighed at how a living creature can do anything for love. Verushka then said :"Okay! Last 2!" she smiled as she wielded her ax waiting for her opponent to come. Han Wentian is almost at his limits, but so are his two opponents, by some luck, he dragged the two weakest enemies with him. he sighed inside :"Ahh, what kind of monsters did I come to help" he swallowed a Qi Recovering pill as he prepared to engage with the enemies again. although it''s effects are minimal, Its still a helpful resources when he''s in a fight. Zhihao was already breaking Zer and his comrade''s will as he charged forward recklessly, on the other hand, Wentian and Verushka are getting pushed back. Zhihao is rushing so that he could immediately help them. Zhihao rushed toward''s Zer focusing all his physical power''s weight in the point of his sword, and immediately stabbed it forward. Zer wanted too dodge, but he''s too exhausted, he tried to block, but Zhihao''s strike was too fast for his current condition to react to. he just focused all his energy to his chest. but he secretly saved some energy on his arms. Zhihao''s Sword immediately pierced through, and directly went outside of Zer''s body. Zer coughed out blue colored blood, but he smiled, then said :"This is our last meeting while living" immediately grabbed Zhihao''s body, then hugged it tightly. :"Sorry for my behavior oh warrior of this plane. but I need to do this, I have things to protect too. Let us die together honorable warrior" After finishing his words, he immediately shouted :"Hurry and kill him NOW! Mar, Kul, Zak! Tar!" ______________ Far in the north, a group of people were traveling. Fen Duan kept muttering to himself ''Good Dual cultivation resources!, Good Dual cultivation resources!, Good Dual cultivation resources!, Good Dual cultivation resources!.'' then finally seeing the people, he immediately rushed in front of them as stopped in front of the crowd. He immediately said :"I Need to check all of you guy''s body constitution! no resist! or i`ll force!, Iuse force!" he doesn''t speak well, that''s why he barely talked. after that, he immediately scanned everyone. The strong pressure immediately was felt by everyone of them. Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately prepared to battle it out. then Butler Ma charged up his spiritual energy preparing to assist the two of his mistresses. Fen Duan continued scanning. then he immediately exclaimed! Fen Duan Exclaimed happily! :"Found two! I HAVE FOUND TWO!" Chapter 63 ALMIGHTY BUTLER MA Immediately, after Fen Duan confirmed, he immediately flew back to the way he went, and straight to the matriarch. excited to inform her and get rewarded. in a few breathes time, He immediately came to the Matriarch side then reported. :"Matriarch! I two! Two found! found bodies! Heavenly Blessed Yang Body! Two boys! boy baby!" When the Matriarch heard this, She was excited. as she looked at Zhihao''s fight. Yu Bingyan smiled as she immediately left further to north. In less than a few breathe, Yu Bingyan instantly came to Xiao and Ning''er location. A beautiful face and slender figure descended from the clouds as she looked at Shen Xiao and Ling Ning''er. then her gaze descended from them to the children they are carrying. Yu Bingyan spoke, :"I Am, Yu Bingyan. Nice to meet you all" She smiled, Then she looked at the people behind Xiao''er and Ning''er and smiled at them before landing in a big rock where she continued to look down on the people. Ning''er spoke first after she appeared :"I don''t think, that you''ll need something from us, oh great being." after speaking she handed the child to Butler Ma, and Immediately focused her attention to that figure. Yu Bingyan smiled then said :"Oh! but i think otherwise. I definitely can see two treasures that caught my attention." She paused then said :"I can leave now, but before that, I can make your destiny turn over. do you want to receive it?" Yu Bingyan giggled as she sat down seductively. Ning''er rebuked immediately :"No matter what is is, or who it would be! We help, neither do we need our destinies altered" Yu Bingyan immediately giggled then said :"hohoho, Even if it has something to do with your husband''s life?"she immediately stood up and slowly lifted herself up flying in the sky. Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately spoke :"What do you mean! Our husband''s life is in danger?" Yu Bingyan replied calmly :"Well, he''s facing 20 beings that has the same cultivation base as him, But i don''t know how he is faring against it now, Actually i`m shocked that he and his companions killed almost half of those twenty. Maybe by now, more than I guess? but your husband... i think is at his limits." Pausing for a while then continued : "before I left, he was already struggling." Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately sweated. Ning''er spoke :"What do you want!" Yu Bingyan immediately went to the point :"to be a God Mother of your children? isn''t that great? getting a God Mother and saving your husband at the same time?" Ning''er and Xiao''er were struck at the dead end, Their Child with their husband, or Their Husband''s life?! the both of them were in a panic instantly. but sooner they regained their calm Xiao''er looked at Ning''er then nodded. Ning''er spoke :"We trust our husband! and would rather die than hand our husband''s baby to some random stranger." After Ning''er spoke, Yu Bingyan snickered then said :"Well, so you guys want proof now then?" immediately Binyan summoned a big void showing the fight going on. Ning''er and Xiao''er trembled at the sight of it. Zhihao was being held by a strong being, while a lot more of those strong beings are rushing over to Zhihao as they prepared to attack. Ning''er was held Xiao''er''s hands tightly. but a silhouette appeared in front of them. then said. Butler Ma :"I don''t know about others. But Master would not sacrifice others for his sake!" he paused for a bit then continued :"He is a selfless man that helps others instead!" Ning''er and Xiao''er hearing this tightened their hands as they both nodded. Bingyan snickered then said :"Ohh, I guess he''ll die then, such a tragic end for a candidate." she then continued :"But I need at least one of the child. So I guess I can''t help it but to use force instead of words now...." but before she finishes. a Butler Ma immediately scowled Butler Ma : "Nobody takes my Master''s children in my watch! OVER MY DEAD BODY!" As he the butler charged to the Almighty being in front of him. Even if knowing that he can''t do much, he still tried his best. Butler Ma focused his powers as he rushed to Yu Bingyan. Yu Bingyan only smiled gently, then a figure immediately went in front of her, it is Fen Duan. Fen Duan lightly tapped at Butler Ma''s hands and immediately all the spiritual energy within his body disappeared. Butler Ma trembled then said :"Even if I die, I`ll protect my Master''s Dignity and family!" Butler Ma''s gaze directed at Yu Bingyan and Fen Duan alternately as the life in it vanishes. Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately handed their baby to their to their parents as they came forward to help Butler Ma. but they only saw Butler Ma''s fierce gaze directed at Yu Bingyan and Fen Duan. but the life wasn''t there anymore. Immediately Ning''er and Xiao''er released their auras as they prepared to fight them to the death. Ning''er spoke to the clans :"Please, evacuate, and scatter to all direction" Everyone immediately nodded and run away in all directions. but before they could leave. something happened. A big cage like energy appeared out of nowhere blocking their paths, then a seductive voice resounded. It was Yu Bingyan, she spoke :"Duan, Immediately tell Mo Shan to upgrade this realm to lower realm, I don''t know why this planet was labeled as a weak planet, but they have the requirements to be on the same level as a lower realm planet." Fen Duan nodded, and immediately went to Fen Mo Shan''s location, where Zhihao and Verushka were fighting. After ordering Fen Duan ,Yu Bingyan looked at Ning''er and Xiao''er thensmiled at them then said : "Now back to our topic." but before she can continue speaking. Butler Ma have again woken up from his unconscious state then said :"Not on my watch" as blood continued flowing out of his mouth. glaring at Yu Bingyan''s face madly. Chapter 64 HEADING FURTHER NORTH Hearing Butler Ma spoke again, Yu Bingyan was shocked, after a few seconds, she calmed then said :"That strike from Fen Duan was a strike from a real Mythical realm cultivator, even if it''s just a shove. you''re unconscious state only lasted a few breathes time? how strong is your will exactly" Yu Bingyan was shocked by the Will that butler Ma showed off. She''s slightly interested in it. Butler Ma flared :"This is the will I inherited from my blind faith towards my Master!," Butler Ma readied himself to attack, but was stopped by Ning''er and Xiao''er. Ning''er calmly said :"Say what you want, as we will confront you with everything we got! even if you are a God!" After saying that, The three of them released their auras. After releasing their Auras, Ru Feng, Mei, Lin, and the others also released their auras. Preparing to engage in the fight. Seeing this scene, Yu Bingyan was bewildered. these weaklings are ready to fight an inevitable battle, just to keep their wills attached. Yu Bingyan pondered for a bit and said :"You guys are ready to fight? But aren''t you also contradicting yourself doing that? you''ve just said it yourself. Your husband or Master, Is a selfless being, You`ll die for him? wouldn''t he be mad?" Ning''er smiled gently then immediately replied :"We''ll die for him!" ___________________ Back at Zhihao''s battle. Verushka looked at Zhihao and was preparing to throw her great ax to Zer, but then she heard a sound transmission coming from Zhihao :"Don''t help for now, I can handle it, Just be safe yourself or I don''t know what to do if you are harmed." Verushka nodded and focused on her battle with the remaining two, as she''s coming closer and closer to exhaustion. Zhihao immediately smirked after he was grabbed by Zer then said :"Well, Sadly for you. I still have a lot of pills for my disposal." immediately after speaking, he swallowed another Sacred Origin Pill. Charging his HP and MP, the injuries he had sustained were immediately shocked. Zhihao smiled at Zer then said :"Good bye, It was a good fight, I can''t have myself die right now, orelse my wives will be angry at me." Immediately, Zhihao pulled out his sword and sliced Zer In half. Zer spoke :"Haaa, it was a good fight indeed." his body fell slowly as it descended to the grounds, in two parts. Zhihao Immediately used his [HANDSOME CIRCLE SKILL] then looked at the rest then spoke :"All of you come at me! Or it will end really fast!." After saying that, the 7 enemies that were still alive charged immediately at Zhihao. Zhihao confronted them as he wielded the two blades he is using. 1 by 1 the enemies are falling to the ground as Zhihao sliced his way through, with exhausted body, the Derkados were no match for the revitalized Zhihao. But when It came to the last one, He felt a powerful surge of power in the North! immediately the smile on his face broke. and his instincts told him that there is something wrong going on! The Derkados immediately noticed that Zhihao was finally full of openings, as he sliced his spear directly pointing at his heart. although he''s exhausted, but the muscles and power he can exert are still overwhelming. Zhihao immediately came back to reality, as he saw a spear flying straight at his heart, Zhihao removed his flame sovereign sword, and grabbed the spear''s tip. then he said :"Sorry, I guess we need to end this now" After finishing his words, Zhihao immediately sliced through the body of the last survivor, Zhihao looked at Verushka then said :"Honey, I think something happened to them! we should go now" Verushka immediately took some recovering pill and swallowed it before nodding. They both immediately looked at the north, and rushed to the strong fluctuation of energy. Han Wentian sighed, as he couldn''t even kill one of the enemy, but noticing that they were both rushing to the north, he was immediately shocked then said :"It couldn''t BE! Something happened to those group of people?!" immediately he followed behind Zhihao and Verushka. After a few minutes, Zhihao finally managed to chase the strong fluctuation of spiritual energy. but what he saw were a group of people, inside a bird like cage made out of spiritual energy. Verushka was also shocked as that type of energy is not something the both of them can handle. Han Wentian arriving later, witnessed the scene caged human beings. immediately his eyes had gone red from rage. but before he could do anything, a thunderous voice sounded. "WHO DARES!" A shout that roared made it look like coming from the heavens will itself was heard, Striking fears to every soul that heard it. Chapter 65 MYSTERIOUS WOMAN Seeing his clan''s people and beloved ones caged inside a spiritual energy. Zhihao''s rage reached the bottom line. But after that a series of notification popped up. *Ding!* =Host has activated one of your hidden Awakening skills. [Berserker God''s Wrath] (GOD) Lv. 1 (Cannot be upgraded) Skill When the user enters an enraged mode that fulfills the criteria the effects as follow would be activated. - Immediately gives you 100 times the boost of your original power for 1 hour. - All the direct damage you''ve dealt will convert into the user''s Health points - Defense would be weaken by 10 times - Ability to think will be removed (Nulled by the system) ~After the Duration has ended the host wouldn''t be able to use his cultivation power and wouldn''t be able to cultivate for a time period of 1 Month. Zhihao''s eyes shone dark red as he glared at the woman standing at the top of a rock looking down on everyone else. Verushka, and all the people around, even Yu Bingyan was shocked by the sight of Zhihao''s rage. Yu Bingyan spoke first :"Ohhh, That is definitely the signature quality of the Berserker Gods, so you are the one that was chosen by the princess hohoho." after Binyan finished speaking. she saw Zhihao''s aura escalating wildy, Zhihao''s power kept increasing realm by realm. as he looked at Yu Bingyan''s figure. Mythical Lord Realm! Mythical Sage Realm! Mythical King Realm! Mythical Emperor Realm! Demi-God Sovereign Realm!! After Zhihao''s aura finished escalating he immediately looked at the caged and rushed to break it. Yu Bingyan was shocked! A legendary might''s realm directly going to the Demi-God Sovereign realm! How! It should only be at the Mythical King''s realm! Zhihao tore the cage 1 by 1 as he went straight to Yu Bingyan, preparing to attack. Then Yu Bingyan just waved her jade white colored hands as she sent a powerful force to hit Zhihao. Zhihao tried to defend, and succeeded in destroying Yu Bingyan''s wave. but the next moment caught Zhihao in a shocked state! Yu Bingyan immediately appeared in front of him and held his neck, Bingyan spoke :"You are only at a Demi-god''s realm, You think you can handle me? a True God?" as she spoke, she threw Zhihao to his family. Yu Bingyan floated in front of them like a true god indeed. Zhihao got up immediately and said :"YOU DARE TO IMPRISON MY FAMILY! I`LL KILL YOU!" Zhihao brandished his swords as he charged to Yu Bingyan''s location. Yu Bingyan was shocked again, and then she spoke :"You can still keep your consciousness ? HOW!?" she casts wind blades and showered it to Zhihao, Although it is her weakest skill, it is still coming from a genuine God Realm cultivator. Zhihao was hit, one by one as he kept getting pushed back, until he hits the ground and got buried inside. Zhihao was at a lost, how can he be so miserable like this!, he used all the things he have, but still couldn''t come closer to Yu Bingyan. Zhihao got out of the ground as he stood up his ground, preparing to attack, but three silhouettes appeared out of nowhere as they stood in front Zhihao''s field of vision. The Three simultanously said :"Husband/Honey, Are you okay?" immediately the two looked at the other one, while the other one looked at the two, It was Xiao''er, Ning''er, and Verushka. Verushka smiled then said :"Greetings 1st and 2nd sisters, I`m your 3rd sister, Verushka lord of the Demon Race, Pleased to meet you, This might be the first and last one we talk" Xiao''er and Ning''er opened their eyes wide then looked at each other then giggled. Ning''er spoke :"Welcome to our family, let''s us talk more in the after this, or in the after life, Thank you for taking care of our husband in the both of us'' absence" After the Greetings, the three of them looked ahead preparing to attack. Yu Bingyan calmly said :"Are you sure you want to do this?, I am in God''s realm, Although I am not of peak existence at least my Sect is within the upper realms. you can''t beat me" Yu Bingyan folded her arms under her two peaks, as she looked down on them. But then a sudden phenomenon occurred. The sky brightened up, and the clouds are scattering from all directiom Giving way to the figure descending from the sky. a beautiful lady descended from the heavens, jade white like skin, an hourglass figure, red lips and a seductive jade green eyes. The figure spoke : "Matriarch Yu, I think you`ve figured out already that I, am checking this planet? why have you come here?" Yu Bingyan was shocked at first then stabilized herself, then replied :"Princess Yan, one of the eight Goddess of beauty in the four God''s Domain, I merely, Am looking for a dual cultivation material, and wouldn''t harm anyone, only threatening for a bit, as I don''t want to force them, but they aren''t bulging, you do know, that I can kill anyone in this small world, in a whim, why would i even bother." The one called Princess Yan smiled then said :"Well, since i`ll be putting them in my protection, would you have any other objectives then?" Yu Bingyan sighed as she shook her head :"Princess Yan, My sect is only a part of your Mother, The Empress'' one of her Many other pawns. I dare not disobey any other from her daughter." After saying that Yu Bingyan released her cage, as she slowly flew and bowed slightly at Princess Yan. Yu Bingyan tried her best, not to release any killing intent, as per if she did, her head would be sent flying. Although her cultivation is a lot stronger than Princess Yan, She wouldn''t dare act, Which princess of the God''s top realm wouldn''t have a few Guards, guarding them. Yu Bingyan immediately flew towards, Fen Duan and Fen Mo Shan, as she wants to get out of this world as soon as possible. Chapter 66 NOT TELLING :P Finally after Bingyan has gone out of the world, The Princess finally calmed down, she forgot to bring her guards to protect her. then a voice woke her up. "Thank you for saving our lives, This favor I`ll definitely return in full" It was Zhihao, as he clenched his fist tightly and blood spurting out of his mouth. The Princess sighed as she replied :"I am sorry, but I think the favor will be returned sooner or later" after she finished speaking, she pouted as she thought of some things. Finding it weird, Zhihao replied : "Pardon me Princess, but I need to ask, what do you mean by I`ll be able to repay this debt sooner?" The Princess opened her eyes then said :"Oh that''s right, you haven''t seen my original face!, wait let me fix my fake mask"the Princess merely added a mask in her face, as it started changing one by one. Zhihao, and Ning''er were both shock, as the face is becoming more and more familiar by the time she''s almost finished, then the Zhihao exclaimed :"Yi Yan!?" The Princess giggled then replied :"Correct! Ya got it right young master!" as she stuck her tongue out in a playful manner. Zhihao was extremely bewildered, then asked :"Why''d you hide your real appearance and status to my clan? what were your goals?" Zhihao asked cautiously, if a strong person like this dealt with their family, even he can''t do a thing against here. so he just casually asked, If Yi Yan really wanted it, She can kill anyone within this world that time. Yi Yan Pouted then said :"Well, Young Master, see...." but before she could finish Zhihao replied. "Please stop saying young master, as you`re a Princess and a person with extreme cultivation, I think it''s time for the both of us to end that matter." Zhihao declared intently with forgetting the past, A princess of a God''s top realm? Her personal maid? Not ba... I mean it will bring destruction to their whole world if known outside. Yi Yan sighed then said :"Yah, sure, sure, whatever you like then." After that she paused for a bit then said :"Well, I planted a God''s Seed in your stomach, Remember? that time before the day of your wedding, I hugged you right? well that was to pierce that seen inside your stomach." Verushka, Ning''er and Xiao''er looked at Zhihao with a smile that was as heavenly as a Goddess smiling at their Enem... Husband. Zhihao started sweating immediately, as he searched through his memory. after few moments, he found the scene where it happened. Zhihao immediately wanted to clear the misunderstand as he said :"Don`t cause a misunderstanding! You tripped for a bit that time and i helped you get up, buy you hugged me and you apologized after running!" Zhihao pants after saying those words in a single breath. Ning''er, Xiao''er and Verushka simultaneously snorted :"Hmmmp!" Yi Yan giggled as she said :"Ahh, yes that!, well that was the time I Pierced your stomach with the god''s seed. Well After that, your power immediately berserked, and I contained it." Zhihao then looked at her then said :"And?" Yi Yan smiled then said :"Well, Nothing much, You just died.... That''s it I guess?" Zhihao was shocked then said :"Wait! You killed me?!" Yi Yan was shocked as well then said :"WELL NO!, Why would I even kill you? I only placed the seed!" Zhihao replied immediately :"Only placed the seed? Well It was the one that killed me in the first place!" Yi Yan replied again :"See, even you know that It was the seed that killed you!" Zhihao immediately rebuked :"But you placed that seed thingy inside my stomach!" Yi Yan replied again :"Well it Killed you not me!" The two of them quarreled for a few minutes. Ning''er, Xiao''er and the rest of the Clans laughed as they heard the two''s quarrel, At the very least, they now know why Yi Yan vanished. After a few more minutes, Yi Yan finally stopped teasing Zhihao then said :"Well, At first I thought that It was a failed attempt, I healed your body and internal organs, but you were dead that time. there were no pulses, breathes or whatever that can Identify you as a living being. so a flew immediately and planned to return to mom." Yi Yan smiled as she looked at Zhihao apologetically, she knew herself that She almost cost Zhihao''s death, so she also felt guilty. Zhihao replied :" Then how am I alive?" Yi Yan replied immediate then said :"Well, That I don''t know myself, because that time, when I was above your courtyard. I felt a life source pouring down in your body, I tried to catch it, but I couldn''t, I was thrown heavily by that weird life force." she paused for a bit then continued :"after that, I sensed your life coming back to life, as I saw a death''s force leaving your body. and It took me a Month''s time to recover from that." Zhihao was gonna reply then the notification popped up. *Ding!* =Well, she''s blocking my way, so I threw her aside immediately, Not really my fault, she''s blocking my job. Zhihao sighed, then thought ''I guess she got threw out because of me, I`m partly at fault too I guess.'' then Zhihao said :"I guess a lot of things are clear now right? then can I ask a question?" Yi Yan sighed as she knew the question already, she nodded and looked at Zhihao then said :"Sure, I`ll answer immediately" Zhihao smiled gratefully then asked :"What''s the use of these god''s seen and why did you plant it inside me?" Yi Yan smiled then stuck out her Tongue then said :"Not telling. Bleee :P" immediately after saying that, she flew up in the sky at lightning fast speed. then she followed up :"When you have reached the God''s Realm cultivation, I`ll tell you everything you need to now, but by that time, You still have a Million years to cultivate. No need to rush." Zhihao was shocked at her sudden action, but before he could reply, she was already long gone, It only took her 10 breathes, to vanish instantly. As Zhihao blurted out in low tone :"God''s Realm" Chapter 67 ZHONG BAI CHEN, and ZHONG JINGYI Zhihao finally sighed a relief, immediately he asked Verushka to summon the Floating fortress, and instructed the people to come inside, one by one. After arranging everything, they immediately went back to the Demon race''s sacred ground. after a few hours of flying slowly they had finally ascended to the Demon Race''s sacred ground. The people of Ning''er, Xiao''er and Zhihao''s clan landed and was shocked of what they saw, the demon race, beast kin, and the human race working together, selling in the market, mining ores, working in the field, and such, some are even laughing together. Immediately the three clans wanted to participate. After Descending from the Sky. Zhihao landed together with Ning''er, Xiao''er and Verushka. Han Wentian couldn''t do much as he just delayed two opponents while Zhihao killed the enemies continuously. he just sighed as he floated towards the direction of his own continent. Zhihao called out to him, :"Would you like to have a feast with us first?" Han Wentian smiled as he shook his head then said :"I`m fine, you guys can go on" Zhihao insisted :"Come! just for the night!" Han Wentian sighed as he nodded in response. immediately descending from the sky to the earth. ____________________________ The other side of the continent, the southern part. Rah with one of his arms disabled, clearly felt the life signs of all his comrades vanished to thin air. Their race couldn''t cry, as such only hatred can be born. Immediately Rah went to the communication beacon and contacted the archon. Rah spoke :"Archon, We failed, All of my comrades are dead!, Requesting for orders." The Archon crisped his brows as he said :"I`m Descending that plain! Wait for me!" Rah replied immediately then said :"Yes, Archon." _______________________ The Night start in which Zhihao wanted to celebrate his reunion with his family. Zhong Ru Feng and Ruo Mei, both approached Zhihao as they hugged him tighter, Ruo mei couldn''t contain herself as she wept at finally seeing his son again. Ru Feng patted Zhihao''s back, as he sighed full of relief. after a few minutes of catching up. They parted with Zhihao as they smiled. Zhihao wondered why, but then two silhouettes came in his room. It was Xiao''er and Ning''er, but they are carrying something, or someone. There were two babies in each of them. They both walked closer and closer towards Zhihao. Xiao''er and Ning''er both said :"say hello to your daddy" they both smiled towards Zhihao. Zhihao''s mouth became wide open as he said :"I`m a father now?" tears immediately rolled down his eyes as he kneeled down to hold his babies. Zhihao asked :"What''s their name" Xiao''er and Ning''er both replied immediately :"We were waiting for you to name them" Zhihao smiled then said :"I`ll name my child with Ning''er as Zhong Bai, while the one with Xiao''er, I`ll Name Zhong Jin!" seeing the colors of his baby''s hair, inheriting their mother''s color, He named it as such. Xiao''er and Ning''er''s smiled froze as they both looked at Zhihao. Ning''er spoke first :"Husband, You''re naming them because you saw their hair colors are the same as ours?" Xiao''er looked at Verushka in the back then continued :"Are you planning to have your baby with sister Verushka named Zhong Zi?" Zhihao replied as he looked at Verushka :"Why not?" Verushka, Ning''er and Xiao''er all frowned their hair, what type of naming sense is that?. Verushka immediately complained :"If you dare do that, We''ll leave you alone!" Zhihao widened his eyes then said :"Eh? why not help me? I like all of your colors, it brightens my life too" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the three of them blushed immediately. Ning''er spoke first again :"How about Zhong Bai Chen?" Zhihao nodded and replied :"Oh! that''s a good name!" Verushka immediately replied :"It''s not like you know anything better, even if we threw some random names it would be better" Xiao''er and Ning''er laughed at Verushka''s remarks. Zhihao felt awkward then he lifted his baby from Xiao''er as he said :"How about you my little baby?" Xiao''er immediately replied :"Zhong Jingyi! Zhong Jingyi!" Xiao''er rushed to avoid any bad names being said. but after after saying that, she immediately blushed. Zhihao nodded as they all laughed together. Then Zhihao immediately introduced. :"Mother, Father, This is Verushka, My third wife." Ru Feng and Ruo Mei sighed, they were in a crisis but their son still chose to hunt for wives. Ruo Mei immediately said :"Welcome to the Family verushka" after saying that she smiled and opened her arms wide, wanting to hug her cute 3rd daughter-in-law. Verushka noticed what she wanted as she bowed and went closer to her then said :"Thank you mother". Ru Feng smiled and nodded. Immediately Ruo Mei led Ru Feng out of the room, and bid farewell to the four. Immediately after Ruo Mei left, Butler Ma came inside with four Maids behind him. Butler Ma spoke :"Master, It''s been a while" Zhihao nodded as he smiled at him then said :"It''s good to see that you`ve been strong, alive and still kicking" Butler Ma smiled then said :"It''s all thanks to Master''s generosity" immediately Butler Ordered the maids to take the childs away. Zhihao was shocked then said :"Where are you taking the kids?" Butler Ma was more shocked!, you haven''t seen your wives for how many years and you''re still asking? then butler Ma cough as he replied :"Ahemn! Master, It''s time for their nap time, so i`ll let the maids take care of them." The trio immediately blushed, they knew what butler Ma is hinting. Butler Ma immediately excused himself after that, without waiting for Zhihao''s reply. Immediately, After Butler Ma left, Zhihao wanted to follow as he said :"Wait! I want to play with them for a few more...." but before he finished, Someone grabbed his robe from behind. It was Xiao''er, she''s looking down as she grabbed the hilt of his robes. Then when Zhihao was going to ask why, Someone grabbed his arms, this time it was Ning''er. Ning''er spoke immediately :"Where are you going husband? It''s been a while since we''ve seen each other right?" Speaking to there, Ning''er smiled seductively. Verushka immediately intervened with their chatter :"You both do your things first, I had him fresher, so I`ll join in last" Ning''er and Xiao''er placed a thumbs Up as they dragged Zhihao further into the darkness of the night. Chapter 68 SYSTEMs UPGRADED PERFORMANCE After the night ended. Zhihao is still sleeping. The trio, kissed Zhihao before fixing themselves up. Ning''er, Xiao''er, and Verushka immediately took their bath, and got dressed. with normal clothes today. They Xiao''er went to the maids that took care of their babies with Ning''er, While Verushka just headed to the throne room. After checking after the two baby boys, Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately went out to check the events happening within the empire. Ning''er checked the Alchemist guilds, Weaponry smiths, and the Inscription Halls. checking for new updates. While Xiao''er went to the fields to check for any bad or good news about it. __________ Zhihao woke up when it was almost in the afternoon. 2PM, and his back is aching at the moment. After a few minutes. he went out. then announced something randomly out of nowhere. Zhihao focused his spiritual energy into his vocals then spoke :"Excuse me every!, I have an announcement to make!, From today onward, our Empire, will be named Eternal Glory Empire!" Zhihao is expecting a silent reaction. but just after he spoke. a loud roar came from the citizens of his empire! -WOAHHH! LONG LIVE THE LORD! -WOAHHH! LONG LIVE THE LORD! -WOAHHH! LONG LIVE THE LORD! -WOAHHH! LONG LI..... Zhihao was shocked, nobody protested? wasn''t his naming sense weird? he made a weird expression, then a silhouette appeared beside him. It is Verushka, then she spoke :"For once, you can create some good names too huh? you should keep up the good work" She kissed his cheeks then left immediately. Zhihao cleared his throat then continued :"Okay, stop now, stop now, don''t shout again, your babies might wake up if you guys are too loud!" Zhihao paused for a bit then said :"Just nodding in your heart is good" Everyone understood Zhihao''s word as they silently listened to him. Zhihao spoke again :"I`d want for you guys, to do your works not just for the empire, but also for yourself." Pausing again for a few seconds then he continued :"I`ll set the tax to only 10% for two years, and after that two years it will be 15% and that will be fixed, no decree even to the following generations after me shall remove or change this! It can get lower if there a crisis, but it cannot go higher!" Immediately, after hearing Zhihao spoke, The normal citizens wept as they kneel on the ground. usually the kingdoms charges 50% but only 10% that''s a big amount of savings for them. Zhihao then continued again :"I`ll be establishing the Royal Guards of the empire! they will be the followers of justice within the Empire, If they did something wrong, you can go to the Royal court and request for an investigation, No bias would be done. But be sure of what you report, as if you file a false report, it will bite you in return." pausing for a bit, Zhihao looked at his surrounding then said :"My empire will be the place where Equality, and Equity will be measured justly." Zhihao announced the last part :"For those that wants to apply for the Royal Guards, just head below the Floating fortress tomorrow morning! for people that are under the Sky Establishment realm, You guys can go to a sect and cultivate until you reach heavenly establishment realm, or you can stay at that sect to do missions for them" :"i''`ll Call out to certain people now. The four rulers of the Sacred Grounds on the Human Continent, the Three great Admirals of the Demon Race, and the Six Overlords of the Beast race, Will establish a Sacred ground." Zhihao paused again as he kept lacking some breathe, Definitely, last night exhausted him. then he continued :"If they want to, They can, But if they don''y want to I won''t force them. They can create Different sects, but I`ll only permit a maximum of 13 maximum realms to exists within my empire. If you choose to create your own after that, you are free to create one outside my Empire!" Then a voice shouted asking :"Your Majesty, I am Ying Mai, One of the four leaders of the sacred grounds, We don''t have any lands nor cultivation resources as of now, so we can''t really establish any kinds of kingdom." She paused for a bit then pleadingly said :"What would we do?" Zhihao smiled then said :"That is up to fate for now, but I`ll be placing some Missions within each establishments, like the Alchemist Guild, Looking for some typical medicinal herbs, or the Weaponry smith, searching for ores, I`ll try as hard as I can to make a lot of Spiritual energy stones, But for now I`ll use the Demon Race''s resources within the time that I don''t have any." Zhihao Continued :"Right now, my empire isn''t complete and is at the infant stage, But i`ll do my best to make things better, One by one!" then Zhihao asked inside his Brain : ''System, how do I do this?" *Ding!* =Host, Have you forgotten that I have upgraded?? would you like to know the additional functions that I made?. Zhihao smiled then replied in his mind ''Sure! Let me see!'' *Ding!* =Filtering.. Some options will be displayed now. -Travel back to Your Previous world for a maximum of 24 hours, once every month -Earth''s Dimensional Shop -Territorial Shop -Kingdom shop (Nulled because you`ve already skipped this and made an Empire) -Empire shop -Cultivation Shop for Marital Partners, Servants, Blood brothers, and Direct subordinates. (everytime host''s partners achieves an upgrade, the host will be rewarded, but what you buy in Cultivation Shop can only be given to them) -Quest shop You`ve gained. -Territorial Points (Taken from how well your territory develops) -Empire Points (50% of the Tax will be converted into Empire Points / The development of your establishment will also produce Points) Territorial points : 8,450,918 Empire Points : 19,420,111 Cultivation Points : 0 Quest shop Points : 128,291 Wives : 3 Direct subordinates : 3 Servants : 0 Blood Brother : 0 Zhihao was amazed! Yes! This is amazing! What he actually needed the most! Then he exclaimed in shock as he realized something. :"GO BACK TO EARTH?!" Chapter 69 AZALEA *Ding!* =Yes, Host can come back to Earth for one day each month. Warning, Host''s cultivation will be sealed, but all items, except for weapons are still functional. and defensive items would still be working. Zhihao sighed then he asked :"Can i go buy things from earth, and bring it here?" *Ding!* =Correct! Also you can exchange 1 gold coin to $100 USD. Zhihao smiled then nodded. then he asked :"I`d like to buy medium sized Interspatial Rings, 9 pieces of them" *Ding!* =Items Inserted in host''s inventory. Quest points left 38,291 Zhihao smiled as he nodded. Zhihao immediately announced through Vocals within the empire. Zhihao spoke :"To all the Citizens, We''ll be opening a Royal market where you can trade goods, and daily necessities using currency. It will be opened within a week''s time!" he paused then continued to another topic :"I`ll be hiring some builders now, you guys can go to the Castle below, and enlist yourselves if you want to help building the market Place, I`ll be making a blueprint for you guys to follow" Zhihao immediately drew out some stuffs, he''s removing the Royal garden and replacing it with a Mall! yeah, a 8 floored mall! it''s size is even bigger than his Castle within the floating fortress. After drawing for 50 minutes. Zhihao went to the castle below, to hand over the blueprint. he was astounded because there were already thousands of civilians lining up. Zhihao smiled then handed the Blue print to someone in charge. That person immediately asked :"Your Majesty, what is a blueprint?" Zhihao paused because he was shocked, then he pondered on how to explain it, as he spoke :"It is a guide on how to make what I want to be build!" The builders immediately nodded, so is the one that asked. After settling everything, Zhihao immediately came back to the floating fortress. Zhihao immediately went to check at his wives status. Zhihao smiled at seeing Verushka as she is just lazying around her throne. Zhihao approached her steady. Zhihao spoke to her :"What would you like to have if ever? something to remove your boredom?" Verushka sighed then just replied randomly :"Something new" Zhihao smiled then kissed her forehead. Immediately Verushka shouted at him :"What the! what are you doing in broad daylight!" Zhihao smiled then said :"I`ll give you something interesting, i`ll be gone for one day, and return exactly 24 hours after that time." Verushka looked at him then said :"Just stay safe" Zhihao smiled then directly went to Ning''er and Xiao''er''s location. after a few minutes of walk Zhihao finally found the two of them. Zhihao immediately asked, :"What would you guys like to have?, I`m going to some place to buy get some things" Xiao''er immediately replied :"Husband, I`d like some farming tools, the citizens are having a hard time doing their labor with rusting tools, some people are even getting injured." Ning''er followed :"Some foods for the citizens, there wouldn''t be any yields until the half the year, so they wouldn''t have any food to eat, We can rent the food as a ration and let them pay after they had stable food source" Zhihao sighed, his two wives are definitely different compared to the newest one. Zhihao nodded then went to the treasury within the floating Fortress, it was all the wealth of the three clans, that they gave up, as they wanted to help in rebuilding Zhihao''s Empire. and also Verushka''s accumulated family wealth. Zhihao took out1/100th of the golds inside the treasury and inserted it to his Inventory. He immediately made a list so that he wouldn''t forget anything. List to buy : -Farming tools -Daily Necessities -Foods -Packed juices -Tea leaves -Toys for babies -Personal Hygiene products (Shampoo, Soup, and stuffs) -House items etcetera, etcetera. Then a shout echoed below the floating fortress. A silhouette just under the Floating fortress shouted :"Sis Veru! Where are you!!!" All the living people within the empire heard it. Verushka immediately flew outwards and immediately rushed forward to the silhouette. Zhihao, Ning''er and Xiao''er noticed Verushka rushing as they immediately followed behind. When Verushka landed in front of the Silhouette, The person immediately jumped launch an assault! The three immediately prepared. Then the silhouette started weeping, :"Sister! I miss you so much!" The three were shocked. and couldn''t speak. Verushka also hugged the Woman that hugged her then spoke :"Hmmp! you just learned to find me now huh! sniff, How dare you take too long, Sniff, sniff!" Verushka also cried silently, as she hugged her. Zhihao coughed then said :"Honey, this is?" Verushka noticing that there were three people watching them wiped her tears and snot. Immediately replied :"This is the Daughter of Azmorath, the Ruler of the Beast kin, Her name is Azalea" Azalea is a tall beast woman, Slender legs, good figure, and also a bright and beautiful face, the only thing that gives her out is two triangular ears, like the ear of a dog, a wolf to be precise. her height is higher than Verushka, Verushka can only reach under her chest area. Zhihao and the two, smiled then Zhihao spoke :"Well, we''ll leave the two of you some time for each other." Zhihao prepared to walk away but then Azalea spoke. Azalea :"Sis, Who''s he?" Verushka replied :"He''s my Husband!" Azalea replied immediately :"Woah! Sis you got married?! why didn''t you inform me first! you promised me that we`ll have a husband at the same time! We''re still too young! i''m only 34 years old!" Verushka sighed then said :"Well, certain circumstances happened, so it can''t be changed." then Verushka looked at Zhihao then said :"You guys can go on now, I`ll have a chat with her for now, it''s been too long since we''ve talked to each other." Zhihao and the rest immediately nodded as they walked away. Verushka led Azalea towards the floating fortress to have a catch up with her. _______________________ Zhihao immediately prepared all the golds he might need. In total, he now have 1,750,299,124 golds. well you can calculate his USD if he converted all of it. Well just to help you guys with calculations. it''s 175,029,912,400 USD. Chapter 70 CONFRONTING THE ARCHON Zhihao smiled as he said in his mind ''System, I`d want to go to earth now'' *Ding!* =Host is still in Berserker God''s wrath mode (Duration 1 hour, 24 minutes 33 seconds) =Would host like to continue? Zhihao then sighed, but before he could confirm, a very oppressing aura had appeared within the south. Zhihao was gonna go and check it out. Then Three silhouettes appeared in front of him. It is his wives. Han Wentian is in the sky floating too as he felt that over powering pressure. he just looked at the four of them. Ning''er spoke immediately :"You are going to check it?" Zhihao replied :"I think, that if you guys go with me now, I`ll be in a lot of trouble, that guy is definitely strong, stronger than you three, please just stay here and protect the citizens" The Trio couldn''t rebuke his words, as they definitely will be a hindrance to a battle of two over powered beings. they nodded. then the three spoke simultaneously:"Just be safe" Zhihao nodded then said :"I`ll do my best" After saying that, Zhihao dashed towards the south. but to his surprise that powerful being is also charging towards his direction. Zhihao rushed too, after a few breaths time, they immediately faced each other. The being looked like a floating cloud, red colored, andthe only thing that can be seen are two eyes, peeking inside the clouds. That Being spoke :"I, Am the Archon, of the ones that invaded your world, inhabitant, My name is Dzaroka in your world''s language. Judging from your power, you are the supreme ruler of this world?" Zhihao looked at him calm then replied :"Yes, I am, If you want to fight, let''s fight!" Dzaroka spoke :"Let''s wait for a week, I`ll fight you by that time" the being is still getting used to the gravity, and he can also see that the one in front of him is so much stronger than he is, but now that he''s going to be demoted and killed when he gets back, he wouldn''t care anymore. Zhihao smirked :"1 week? I can''t give you that much time, I`ll annihilate your groups of invaders now." Dzaroka sighed inside then spoke :"So be it!,OVERWHELMING POWER!" immediately, lightning striked Dzaroka as he charged up his powers, His red cloud formed extremely dense, as it''s color started turning black. Every second, the clouds are starting to form into something solid. After a few breathes. Shining bluish Armor is floating in front of Zhihao, but what''s connecting the armor pieces, were a powerful lightning energy inside them, and behind were ten floating energy like a fairy''s wings (Like Xerath from League of Legends, But different, It has wings!) Dzaroka''s power up immediately. he''s almost as strong as Zhihao now, A demi-god. Zhihao asked :"You don''t have any physical forms?" Dzaroka smiled then replied :"I dont" Zhihao held the hilt of his sword as he said :"Let''s start?" Dzaroka replied :"You go first then" Zhihao asked again :"Last question, What kind of skill is that?" Dzaroka replied :"It''s a Life Line skill, After activating it, I`d die either i win or lose" Zhihao smiled then said :"All of your friends of same rank has that kind of power?" Dzaroka replied :"That''s another question. But i`ll answer, We have different powers, and mine is just a once in a life time use only. I named it Fated to perish" Zhihao smiled then said :"Thanks for answering, well let''s start now" Dzaroka smiled and immediately strikes first :[THUNDERBOLTS]!" immediately thousands of lightning descended from the sky. Zhihao smiled then he activated his [Handsome circle skill] and [Burning path of the flame sovereign] Zhihao rushed towards Dzaroka as he asked :"I thought you guys can''t cast skills?" as he used his [Heavenly Flash sword] multiple times. Dzaroka replied immediately :"Those are for lower beings like my subordinates, but after my ranks, all of us use Energy grids, charging it until max so that we could use it anytime we want" Dzaroka replied while Continuously casting thunderbolts towards Zhihao Zhihao smiled then spoke :"So you are a walking power generator huh!" spoke as he equipped another sword and rushed towards Dzaroka. Dzaroka spoke afterwards :"You can say that" Then casted [Thunder strike] towards Zhihao, it Hit zhihao but with only minimal damage, It was his fastest skill but lowest damage. then he continued to speak :"Well After my death you should clear some of the bases, someone stronger than me will be changing my post, and our bases are the same as our power generators, It helps us to power up." then he continuesly casted [Thunder strike] as it''s the only skill that hits Zhihao. Zhihao smiled then replied :"Thanks for the info! I`ll use it well in the future." Then he used his [WIND CIRCLING BALL]. Dzaroka widened his eyes, then he smiled :"Thank you Inhabitant, It is a glorious fight, thank you" after speaking that, he immediately charged everything he had as he casted Energy barrier to it''s maximum capacity. Zhihao smiled then said :"It was a good fight, Thank you for helping me" as Zhihao spoke, he continuously charged forward. Dzaroka smiled then said :"It is my honor warrior, HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" with a burst of energy, he prepared to confront Zhihao''s skill. Zhihao threw his [WIND CIRCLING BALL], and within a few breathe''s of time, It finally reached Dzaroka. Dzaroka shouted loudly as he confronted the energy ball :"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" but after a few breathes, the wild torrent of wind kept tearing Dzaroka''s barriers layer by layer, then he spoke :"It will take, at least 5 years, until they noticed me missing, and another year until they can send some reinforcement in your world, use it well inhabitant" Zhihao replied :"Thank you" as he smiled sadly, this guy is a good guy, why would he betray his race. he then asked :"Why''d you help me?" Dzaroka replied immediately :"my world, is where strong thrives, I wanted to live my life with some fun too, but everything there is nothing, the only thing that can happen there is Orders, missions, Confirmations, and death. You guys have a good way to live, I wish I was an inhabitant of this planet, rather than a strong one...." Dzaroka stopped midway, as Zhihao''s Skill finally closed on him, crushing him bits by bits. Dzaroka shouted as his breathes drew closer to death, :"Thank you inhabitant!, HWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Zhihao replied :"Thank you, I guess you guys weren''t all that bad too, sadly you have a strange world, or maybe it''s just your ruler that is strange." pausing for a bit Zhihao continued :"Farewell, It was a good fight" Chapter 71 MEETING THE LIN FAMILY AGAIN Zhihao immediately returned to Eternal Glory Empire. when he''s 800 meters away, an notification rang in his head. *Ding!* =Host, your Berserk God''s Wrath duration is almost over, In 1 second when Zhihao heard it, he immediately wanted to go down!, he''s 1 KM away from the ground!. then like your body turning into a vegetable, Zhihao plummeted down from the sky, like a shooting star, falling from the sky. Zhihao screamed :"STUPID SYSTEM! WHY DIDN''T YOU NOTIFY ME EARLIER!" *Ding!* =No orders were made, Nothing to follow. Zhihao just wanted to punch the system right now if the system is in front of him. but he can''t so the only thing Zhihao can do is scream to the top of his lungs :"WAAAAAAAAAAAA!! FUUUUCCCKKKK!!!! WAAAAAA!!" in a few breathe''s time, Zhihao finally slammed his whole body to the ground. Zhihao cursed inwardly, ''stupid system! stupid system!'' then he asked the system :''system, Please clean up all the dusts and dirts, and mud on my body'' *Ding!* =That''s 10 Quest points, Proceed? Zhihao cursed again :"FUUUCK!" as he said :"Proceed" *Ding!* =Say please. Zhihao wanted to punch someone right now, but he still said :"Please" *Ding!* =Very good!... Cleaning in process. Done! Zhihao felt a warm current of water washing everything dirty that''s on him. then he immediately walked towards the Eternal Glory Empire''s Direction. Then Zhihao can see a Kingdom being established, well he went into that direction, maybe he could buy a horse. But when Zhihao was within the gates, he was stopped by the guards, then the guards spoke :"Young man, I`m sorry, but we still need 12 silvers for you to enter the Kingdom, we''re still making the castle, and we''re lacking a lot of funds for now" Zhihao smiled then handed 1 gold piece, then said :"Good work, keep the rest to your self" the guard was shocked then replied immediately :"Thank you young master!" Zhihao nodded and proceeded to a stable. Zhihao smiled at the clerk as he asked, :"How much for a horse?" The clerk sighed then replied :"Young master, I`m sorry, but the price of a horse right now is extremely expensive, It costs 1 gold for one, because we can''t find a source to hunt some wild horses." Zhihao smiled again then handed 2 golds then said :"Here, you can keep the change yourself" The clerk immediately smiled then replied :"Young master! This way! there''s a really powerful horse in our stable" Zhihao smiled as he followed the girl behind. after handing the horse to Zhihao the girl smiled and thanked him a few more times until Zhihao is out of sight, then the clerk spoke :"If only I have a good husband like that, I`ll be set for my whole life" sighing the clerk went inside as she hid the gold piece into her pouch. the gold coin is almost 30 years her total salary. Zhihao immediately rode the horse. Then he met familiar Faces, It was the Lin Family man!, Lin Huotian. Zhihao called out :"Huotian!" Lin Huotian immediately looked at the direction he was called to then immediately rushed forward and spoke :"Young Master! Sorry that we couldn''t protect the house" Zhihao smiled then said :"No worries, It was inevitable" then he paused for a bit then asked :"Where are your families?" Lin Huotian replied immediately :"Young master, They are in the house, making some straw hats, and baskets to sell in the people''s market, and Lin Yanran is also a cultivator now," Zhihao smiled then said :"That''s good then, I`ll be establishing some sects, you should go to the Eternal Glory Empire, and live there for good" Lin Huotian replied :"Young Master, I`m sorry for being rude, but the ruler of this Kingdom saved our family, they forced us against our will to move out of the house, to save us from the invasion, I thought first that they were just scavenging Master Ma''s House, but when we were a few miles away, we saw a lot of strange beings destroying everything in it''s path. Thankfully the king helped us immediately as we escaped towards north." Zhihao smiled then said :"You guys are seriously kind, well when the sect is established, be sure to let Yanran go to that Sect," Lin Huotian nodded as he smiled then said :"Yes young master, would you like to see them now?" Zhihao sighed as he said :"Sadly I''m rushing somewhere, I have something I want to do urgently." Lin Huotian replied :"Okay young master, I`ll just inform them, Until we meet again young master" Zhihao nodded as he rode his horse faster towards the exit. Lin Huotian sighed as he waved Zhihao goodbye, then a figure appeared. "Father, who was that?" It was Lin Yanran, she developed rather well, and is now a gorgeous lady, with the help of cultivation, her body is as healthy as it could get. Lin Huotian sighed as he replied :"That was the young master that helped us before" Lin Yanran immediately exclaimed :"EH?! Why didn`t you call me!" Lin Huotian spoke :"Well, Young master was rushing, but don''t worry, he informed me that there will be a sect in Eternal Glory Empire, so once it was build, you can go there, maybe you can meet the young master again" Lin Yanran nodded fiercely as she made a new goal in life!, to join a sect within the Eternal Glory Empire! Lin Yanran immediately said :"Father! I`ll cultivate now!" Lin Huotian sighed as he nodded towards her daughter''s burning motivation. ______________ After a few minutes had passed, Zhihao finally came close to the Empire''s gate. Then three silhouettes welcomed him. Ning''er, Xiao''er and Verushka smiled together as they spoke :"Welcome home Husband/Honey, Glad that you are alright" tears were urging to fall out of their eyes, as they went to walk and embraced Zhihao. Zhihao replied :"It was nothing, I told you guys, everything will be fine." after speaking, he immediately hugged the three of them. Chapter 72 I`M BACK Zhihao finally finished his preparation. Zhihao bid farewell to his wives, and family. He searched for the forest nearby then spoke to the system :"System, Let''s go to earth now" *Ding!* = Activating Void travel Distance calculating from earth. 817.94 PC[Parsec] away from current world. Confirm? Zhihao was bewildered, PC? ahh well he just ignored it then said :"Confirm" After confirming, a crack immediately formed out of thin air. *Ding!* = Host can enter anytime you like. Zhihao answered :"I thought it would be just immediate teleportation. *Ding!* = Stupid. Zhihao frowned then said :"Hmmp! one day! seriously one day!" then he entered the crack, immediately light assaulted his vision. Zhihao smiled :"I`m back!" then he looked around as he said :"Idiot system! why''d you make me transfer to the bridge!" *Ding!* = It''s the place where you died, maybe you need to celebrate some kind of anniversary. Zhihao just harrumphed as then walked towards the nearest city. with his current physique running for a whole year wouldn''t be a problem. Zhihao noticed that people around had been looking at him weirdly, immediately he checked himself. and yeah he was shock, he''s still wearing the Flame Emperor''s set. he scratched his head as he headed to the nearest public toilet. then he asked the system :"I`d like some good fashion now, it better suit me! perfectly! please!" *Ding!* = sigh. okay! 100 Quest points. Proceed? Zhihao gritted his teeth, why are you charging me with expensive quest points now? you`ve been doing that recently. *Ding!* = because host is annoying. Zhihao sighed as he confirmed his order. immediately light shone on his body, his hair style, clothes, shoes and pants immediately changed, even his underwear. Zhihao looked at the mirror as he said :"Didn`t know that I was this handsome before" *Ding!* = Sigh.... Zhihao just ignored the sigh, then immediately went out. after going out of the public toilet Zhihao smiled. he definitely missed earth. as he walked further out. there was a burst of screams from the ladies. -Kyaa! how handsome! -Oppa! Take a picture with me please! -Kyaa! who''s that? is he an actor? -I don''t know! but maybe he''s a model? -Yeah I haven''t seen a face like that even in the S class industry! Zhihao was shocked at the sudden shout, then he just waved at them as he walked away. Immediately the ladies screamed their lungs out. -Kyaa! He waved at me! -Stupid! Didn''t you see he was looking at me?! -Kyaa! Such a handsome oppa waved at us! -I`ll search for that handsome oppa now! anyone of you guys caught a picture of him?! -I did! I did three shots! You guys can share the two, but the other one is my limited vintage! -Shocks! why couldn''t i picture at him immediately! Zhihao immediately went to the closest Mall and bought a suitcase. then to the closest bank. If you want to have fast transactions on this world, you need atm. so he choose to make an account. After Zhihao entered the building. the female staffs immediately looked at him, they wanted to scream. but it''s their works place. so they forced themselves to stop. but still, the young customer ladies, immediately screamed and chatted by themselves. Zhihao then went to one of the staff as he said :"i`d like to create an account. how much can you guys accommodate ?" The staff was just looking at him, until the manager approached and nudged her. well the manager is also a woman, so she knew well how this ladies are feeling. The staff immediately answer :"The lowest would be $40 USD, the maximum will be until how much you can give. the more, the better the benefits, how about it sir? our bank the China National Security Bank, is the most safest and most trusted bank in the whole of china!" Zhihao smiled then said :"Okay, That''s good, I''ve brought these four suitcase, Each of these has 4 Million USD, so it''s $16 million, But can you guys send someone, I still have a lot of money in my house." The staff and the manager and even the observers has their mouths opened wide. Zhihao casually wanted to wake them up as he said :"Hello?" The Staff and the manager wiped their saliva, then the manager continued :"Sir, We can help you!, and we''d like to know how much money you`d have waiting in your home?" Zhihao thought for a bit then said :"I think it''s about $1 Billion, in $100 currency notes, or maybe more" after speaking, Zhihao just smiled. Seeing Zhihao''s smile, the people inside the building felt enlightened. Then the manager spoke :"Excuse me sir, can you please wait for a moment, We''d like to process some information and we''d like to contact the Main company building for this." Zhihao smiled then said :"No worries." After a few moments, the manager returned. then spoke :"Excuse me sir, but we''d like to confirm something, what''s your work?" Zhihao smiled as he pondered for a bit, yeah he didn''t think first, a big money can cause a lot of people misunderstood. then he thought of something. Zhihao smiled at the manager then spoke :"I don''t have a work" The manager immediately became shock and got scared, but stillnervous because of how handsome Zhihao is. then Zhihao continued :"Well, my parents business are in the philippines, their business is the hotel within Palawan, it''s name is "Moon View Pavilion, Hotels, and Restaurants"" The Manager and the rest of the people''s eyes immediately opened in shock, He is the son of one of the most well known people within the world! but they didn''t have a son right? only two daughters?" Then Zhihao spoke :"Well, they would be announcing it sooner or later" The Manager smiled as she nodded and called the company again. after a few moments the Manager came back. then handed a file to Zhihao. Zhihao smiled as he still remembered the last time he held the paper. Filling up everything, Even his name. Zhong Zhihao aged 17... etc... etc... After filling everything up. The manager personally fixed the data, and within a few minutes, The manager handed Zhihao his acct book, and atm, credit, and debit card. all within gold plating. Zhihao smiled then thanked the Manager as he went outside. The People inside still couldn''t get over it. Then Zhihao forgot something! His number! but he doesn''t have a house and phone! so where should he send them!. Zhihao thought for a bit. -No House -No phone -No car -No data Then after realizing it, Zhihao immediately rushed outside before they could remember. He needs to fix everything first! Chapter 73 I CHANGED? Zhihao laughed as it could at least easily give his parents some headaches. Zhihao immediately went to the closest Notarial near the orphanage and processed his birth certificate. He was notified that he could get it within a week''s time. Then he went back to the Orphanage, he met there a very old lady, it was Sister Zhao, Zhihao smiled seeing this beautiful old lady, although she''s not really beautiful, but this nun took care of him and the other children, Zhihao spoke :"I`m here to make a donation to the orphanage." The old nun smiled, then a Young one appeared then she spoke :"Hello, I`m Aunt Zhao''s Niece, I`m Zhao Nie, I`ll be covering for her from now on." after finishing her speech, she looked at Zhihao, she was stunned, how can a man be more beautiful than a woman!, then she tried to calm herself immediately. Zhihao smiled then asked :"What type of things do your orphanage need the most?" Zhao Nie replied :"Well, Mostly clothes and foods for the children." Zhihao smiled again then said :"I`ll have those delivered tomorrow morning, how many children are here?" Zhao Nie replied :"There are 32 children, 23 females, and 9 males" Zhihao nodded then said :"Please write your orphanage''s name and address here, i`m expecting it to arrive today or tomorrow if late." Zhao Nie smiled as she wrote the information and handed it to Zhihao. Zhihao smiled as he waved his hand. "I need to go and get my Driver''s license too, It''s a national ID after all."Zhihao thought, as he went to the closest Driving school. After a while, he arrived at the Driving school. Zhihao spoke :"Hello sir, I`d like to get a driver''s license" The man looked at Zhihao then smiled :"Of course sir! please fill out this documents." Zhihao filled up all the empty spaces, well, he just checked the Married section three times, after Zhihao finished everything, He handed it to the instructor. The Man spoke first :"Would you like to start now?" Zhihao smiled then said :"Sure, I`d like to get my driver''s license today too" The Man replied :"If you want to get your ID immediately today, an additional $20 would be used" Zhihao smiled then said :"Sure! I`ll pay $50 instead." The man''s expression immediately brightened then he said :"Sir wait, before we start i`ll immediately tell someone to fix your driver''s license." Zhihao smiled then nodded, He wasn''t a spender like this, but he knew one thing in this world, If you have money, everything will be faster, what''s worst, is that he only has 1 day worth time here. and he already spend 4 hours of it! 20 hours left. Immediately the instructor came back in just 2 minutes, then said :"Sir, let us go now" Zhihao nodded then followed the instructor. Zhihao saw some old types of of Lerzediz Beans cars parked behind the driving school. The instructor pointed at a brand new bought one, then said :"Let us go sir, we''ll just need to drive for about 10 Kilometers, then we can make you a passing grade, if there are no accidents that occurred" Zhihao nodded then rode the front seat, the instructor sat on the passenger seat. The instructor asked :"Do you have any experience in driving sir?" Zhihao smiled then replied :"Yes, A construction truck" The instructor opened his eyes wide, then spoke :"Construction truck?" Zhihao replied :"yeah, a ten wheeler one." The instructor gulped down his saliva, then immediately fastened his seat-belt, preparing to grade Zhihao. Zhihao stepped on the gas, and maintained the speed of 60 Kph. On a cross road, Zhihao stopped, as he saw some reckless driver 100 meters away, with his Spirit sense. The Instructor spoke :"Okay, we can continue, step on the gas" Zhihao replied :"But instructor, there is a reckless driving coming our way." Zhihao pointed to their left. The instructor looked at the left, then saw a very fast moving car, then within a few seconds, the car that was by Zhihao''s side collided with the reckless driver''s car. The Instructor immediately sweated a cold one, running down from his back. then he looked at Zhihao as he said :"Thank you, we would''ve been involved in that accident if you weren''t paying attention, Let''s return now, you`ve did everything with flying colors." Zhihao smiled then said :"No worries". Then Zhihao pondered for a while, ''If it was the previous me, I would''ve saved them, how much have I changed? How come I became cold to people that I didn''t know?'' Zhihao then parked the car to the side then said to the instructor :"Wait for a bit, I`m gonna check on those guys, maybe I can heal them" Zhihao immediately walked out of the car and immediately went to the accident. After Arriving he saw the victim and the suspects, The reckless driver is screaming wildly with only mild wounds, while the victims were a family of three. the daughter is nearing her death, while the mother and father are both seriously injured. Zhihao sighed, then came close to the victims. Zhihao sat near them then said :"I can heal your daughter, but do you trust me?" Both the man and woman, was shocked, Their daughter is almost lifeless, how can anyone save them? but as a mother, and as a father, someone is extending a helping hand to their daughter to extend her life, which family would reject such offer. They both immediately nodded. Zhihao then spoke again :"I`m a magical doctor, but i wish that nobody else would know this, okay? only you three" The father and mother both were shocked and is now thinking hard, maybe this guy is a scam, or even a devil''s underling! An atheist! Zhihao then smiled as he saw the doubt in their eyes, but who wouldn''t? right? Then Zhihao summoned three Sacred Origin Pills then. In just a blink of an Eye, three marbles the size of a bean appeared out of nowhere! The Father and mother duo were shocked. Zhihao then spoke, "If you can''t trust me, one of you take one, if you verified if it is working, you guys can let her drink, she only has more or less one minute remaining in her life." The mother was going to take the Pill, but the father stopped her as he took the pill himself. Immediately, His injuries, and pain were gone. then he looked at his wife in shock. The Mother and Father duo immediately let their Daughter swallow the pill. Immediately, their daughter''s breathing stabilized, and her injuries are nowhere to be seen. then they looked at the man immediately. but what they saw was the back of a man entering a car. Such a magnanimous person. they thought. they bowed their heads silently as they thanked him from the bottom of their hearts. Then a scream was suddenly heard, It was a woman that tried to helped the reckless driver, He''s dead! with an unknown cause! Zhihao sighed as he drove past the accident, then he thought ''Since when have I become the judge that deals with evil and good, had I change? how?'' Chapter 74 BUYING SPREE Part 1 Zhihao headed back to the Driving school and received his Driver''s license. but when Zhihao''s about to exit. The Instructor stopped him. The instructor spoke :"Sir, Would you buying a car? I can refer you to one of my friends, I`ll get you 5% Off on any purchases" The instructor said, he''s saying this to get an additional tip of course. Zhihao smiled then said :"It''s okay, I can manage, Here have something to eat first" Zhihao handed another $50 to the instructor. The Instructor smiled then said :"It''s a pleasure doing business with you sir!" after speaking, he immediately hid the tip Zhihao gave him as he wave Zhihao goodbye. Zhihao walked out and searched for the nearest Car company he can find, after just 15 minutes, he found one. Immediately Zhihao walked inside. A salesman immediately greeted him :"Sir, What would you like to buy? We got the highest quality cars in the whole city." Zhihao smiled then he replied :"Okay, Lead me to the ones best you can show" The salesman immediately smiled brightly as he led Zhihao to the best cars they have. The salesman spoke brightly as he said :"Sir, This is the Scarlet Sarlon, This is the best one we currently have," The salesman introduced the car immediately, one by one, all the qualities it posses. Zhihao smiled as he couldn''t understand any shits that the salesman spoke, then he just said :"How much is this car worth?" The salesman immediately smiled again as he said :"Sir, This is our best car, and you can purchase the upgraded one, A bullet proof car, not even an AKM Penetrate it''s exteriors, but that comes from a high price, this one costs $480k!, the upgraded version costs $2.4m" Zhihao replied :"Well, Which one can I buy now? I need to head out immediately" The salesman replied cheerfuly as he lied :"Sir! You only need to wait for less than 30 minutes for the upgraded version to arrive, but the normal one would take at least 3 hours to arrive, it will be coming from our main branch, but the upgraded one, we have one from our nearby branch" Zhihao smiled as he detected the lie immediately, but still, a bullet proof car is better than nothing, then he replied :"Okay, Fix the papers and send the car here immediately" if Zhihao bought the normal one, the salesman might prolong the chat, to make Zhihao buy the upgraded car. The salesman smiled then replied :"Okay sir! on it! Wait for a bit as I make the contract, Would you be paying monthly or cashing out immediately?" Zhihao replied :"Cash out" as he can''t kept coming here just to pay that. wasting his time. The sales person immediately replied :"Oh! if that''s so, sir you can take the car for only $2.3m!" Zhihao nodded as he waved his hand to make the salesman do his job. every second counts right now, he needed to set everything, even buy a house. The salesman immediately made the paper works and called the company to send an upgraded version of the Scarlet Sarlon. After just 23 minutes, The car arrived, then the salesman immediately handed all the documents to Zhihao. Zhihao paid immediately using his card. after another 3 minutes, the payment were verified, after getting back the card, Zhihao immediately rode his new car and headed out. The salesman sighed brightly as he said to the delivery man : "That''s the fastest transaction I`ve made so far, Ahh, Here bro have some $50 from me. Thanks for delivering it fast bro" The driver took the money as he shook his head, this guy seriously. then he immediately went away. Zhihao immediately went to the biggest mall in china to buy a smart phone, and check for some house and lot sellers. Zhihao went to the phone selling department as he strode inside, yet again a saleswoman immediately welcome him inside as she said :"Sir, which phone would you like to buy? any specs? for gaming? internet browsing? surfing or streaming videos?" Zhihao looks handsome, but he''s wearing a sunglasses right now, so it decreases his face''s popularity by a lot. Zhihao sighed as he said :"Anything that''s good for communication. and longer lasting battery?" The saleswoman immediately led Zhihao to the most expensive phone they have. then she introduced :"Sir, This is our newest mobile phone that was just released last week, it''s name is AsarKa X, It has a capacity of 12,000 Ma!, it can last longer by a full day if you play games continuously, but if you only use it to browse and communication, it can lasts for more than weeks." Zhihao then thought of Verushka as he said :"Wrap me one of those, and can i buy three more, as you guys install some games to it? some games for children, hmm no for girls to enjoy, without the internet" he would like to give each one to Ning''er and Xiao''er too. then he handed his Card to the saleswoman. then he followed up :"Also, Can you give me some Solar charged powerbanks? I need about 12 of those." The saleswoman immediately brightened up her smile! more charming than ever as she said :"No problem sir!" immediately the woman wrapped up the one and handed it to Zhihao as she said:"Sir, Just wait for the other three, or you could go and tour the mall and return later" Zhihao smiled then said :"Okay, I`ll just take a stroll now" The Saleswoman immediately Replied :"Okay sir! have fun! I`ll immediately do my best to install some good quality games without the need for internet" she said as she waved Zhihao goodbye. Zhihao smiled then nodded before he headed out. then he spoke :"Okay, Last one is a house. then I can buy all the necessities and let it be delivered there|" 18 hours, 23minutes 59 seconds left until returning to the cultivation world. Chapter 75 SHOPPING SPREE Part 2 Zhihao walked through the mall as he searches for some people that are selling house and lot. After a few minutes of walking, Zhihao finally saw some miniature house designs in-case inside a glass box. Just when Zhihao approached, A cute lady handed him a brochure then spoke:"Sir, Are you interested in this our model houses? We also sell house and lots, you can pay in advance for half a year, and steadily purchase the house." The cute lady was preparing to say all the scripts she memorized today, to at least get one customer to buy one of the normal houses, but before she could finish, Zhihao immediately stopped her, she sighed inside, as she thought that it would be another failed attempt. Then Zhihao spoke:"I`d like to look at the biggest houses with a lot of spaces to put some things there." The Cute lady immediately brightened up as she said: "Sir! My name is Na Yanlan! please follow me!" she immediately changed her manners of speaking to those that are serving a master. Well, Technically, this would be her first day on the job, having someone checking a mansion, she could skip her work for years if this guy buys one!. She immediately Led Zhihao to their stall, to view all the lands and mansions they are selling. Yanlan immediately browsed their database to show Zhihao their Mansions for sale. she spoke: "Sir! how about this one! It is our biggest mansion to be sold right now, It''s in a commercial area, and it costs high, but if you don''t like it, we have some other smaller ones." Zhihao smiled then said: "Well, I just need ones with big spaces" Yanlan smiled then said: "If It''s just space, you can see this mansion in a bird''s eye-view!, See this Sir, It is 1 1/2 Km2, currently it''s the biggest one there is on the market" Zhihao smiled then replied: "Okay, So how much does it cost?" Yanlan''s smile quickly froze then said: "Oh, About that sir, the price is a little bit too much since it''s the newest designs we have and biggest one at that" Zhihao just smiled then replied: "Well, Okay, so how much does it cost?" Yanlan sighed as she said: "Sir, uh if you`re planning to buy this land through installment, you`d need to pay a total of $9.9M in USD, and that''s the lowest contract of two years if it''s in full payment it would cost $9.5M in USD...." But before she could finish speaking Zhihao replied: "Okay, fix the paperwork, I`d like to pay it in full." Yanlan was shocked, after a few breathes, she finally came back to reality, then said: "Okay sir! wait a moment!" immediately she called the company. she retold the full story of what happened. then she was brief by the company secretary to wait for another call and make the contract immediately. The CEO of the company immediately called her back then said:" This is Yanlan right? If the Mansion was to be really sold, you won''t have to work there again, I`ll give you a bonus and I`ll immediately promote you!, Just stall the man first, as long as you could, I`ll go down there! at 15, no just 5 minutes!" Yanlan replied excitedly: "Yes Sir!" after hanging down the phone, She immediately went to Zhihao and handed the paper works. Zhihao sighed, another paperwork, He immediately filled out the paper works. then immediately returning the papers to Yanlan. After receiving the papers back, she immediately replied: "Sir, next is for the photograph, we need a whole body picture of you and a 2x2 picture, would sir mind it if you take off your sunglasses?" Zhihao smiled as he nodded, then when he was about to follow Yanlan inside, someone called out. "Excuse Me, We''d like to buy this Mansion" a Middle aged man in his late 40''s. said, following behind him is a gorgeous woman, tall figure, fiery red and black hair, also wearing a Sunglasses, covering her shoulder, is a high-class coat made with some animal''s fur, with definitely a good figure. But of course, Which of Zhihao''s wives has less than that, his wives might even look more beautiful once this girl reveals her face. Then a salesman approach them, as he said: "Which mansion sir?" The middle-aged man pointed at the one that Zhihao just bought. Zhihao noticed it then he sighed, He just wished that there won''t be any problems arising. Yanlan prepared the machine, for taking the photo of Zhihao. The Salesman immediate replied: "This sir? wait a moment, as I`ll contact the company" after saying that, the salesman immediately went inside as he called the company. After a few moments, the Salesman returned, as he sighed, no bonus, definitely, then he replied: "Sir, I`m sorry but that mansion was just bought by that man over there" he pointed at Zhihao as he sighed inside his heart ''no bonus, damn it''. The Middle-aged man and the woman looked at Zhihao as they both scanned him from head to toe. The Middle-aged man looked at the woman, then when he saw the woman nod, he immediately approached Zhihao as he said: "Sir If you would please, Can we buy this mansion instead? my lady wishes to buy this mansion for herself, We''ll compensate you for it, how about $500k? would that be enough?" Yanlan then said: "Sir, the camera is ready, please come here" Zhihao smiled at the Middle-aged man then looked at the woman as he said: "I`m Sorry, but I can''t give you this mansion, I need its land, and the space is quite big enough, Or else I might find it hard to find a new one the same as this" then the Middle-aged man persisted, : "Sir, if you''d like you can have a picture with my Lady, she''s an S-Class actress, after all, I`m her manager, I`ll permit it this once" as he said that, the lady smiled as she removed her sunglasses and smiled at Zhihao. Then Zhihao smiled as he said: "I`m really sorry, I can''t I`ve made my decision already, find another one please" then Zhihao removed his hat and Sunglasses and bowed towards the both of them, then he continued forward to the area to have his picture taken. The S-class actress, middle-aged man, and all the observers and Yanlan were frozen stiff right now. Then The S-class actress and Yanlan spoke together: "Shu... Shu... Shu¨¤ig¨¥!" Chapter 76 ZHENG SHUAN Zhihao sat, as he prepared himself for the 2x2 picture by now. Yanlan immediately woke up in her daydream, then she sat there as she prepared to take the photo. then the S-class actress immediately went inside as she said: "Oppa, uh, my name is Zheng Shuan. can we take a picture together please? just one?" anyone of the male population would jump at the thought of getting a picture together with her. who would even reject her, even the superstar male actors would jump at the thought, especially when she actually proposed it herself. Zhihao blinked once, then said: "I`m sorry, I am currently busy with completing my files" but not to her expectation, Zhihao declined immediately. Zheng Shuan felt sad as she said persistingly: "After that, please can we take one together? just one?" Zheng Shuan definitely fell in love at first sight. Zhihao sighed as he nodded. Yinlan immediately smiled as she said: "Sir, now for the whole body picture please" Zhihao smiled as he nodded, he stood up and looked at the camera. Yinlan smiled then said: "Okay sir, that''s it for the front picture!, turn to the side now please and put your hands inside your pocket now, and look at the camera" immediately, every male there facepalmed, since when did they needed a side view picture of a man? the female workers and the observers were actually excited, they''d just buy a copy of those afterward. Zhihao pondered for a bit, as he just followed her instruction. Click! Click! then Yinlan followed up, "Sir, the other side now" Zhihao sighed as he thought ''why''d we even need a lot of pictures, I thought it would only be one'' then he just followed along again. Click! Click! Yinlan then said: "Sir, Can you lift your legs and step on the chair? and can you also bite your lips lightly?" Then a cough suddenly entered her ears. "Ahem, Ahem, Miss Yanlan, I`ll handle it, for now, you go process the files." It is the CEO, he had just arrived. and saw what was happening with the photo section. Immediately Yanlan smiled as she went and took the camera. but then suddenly a commotion echoed. -Unni! I`ll pay $20 for a copy! -Unni! $100 for a copy here! please! -Unni! Print me one I`ll pay you all my money! Then a silhouette approached Yanlan, It is Zheng Shuan, she clasped her hands then said: "Unni! I`ll pay you a thousand USD per picture! print one for me! even the 2x2!" Seeing this, everyone sighed as they shook their head, wasn''t this the prideful woman? Zheng Shuan? a superstar actress, known around the world? what is happening right now! Yanlan nodded at her strongly as she said: "No problem unni! for you it''ll be free!" Coming back to Zhihao, he tilted his head sidewards as he looked at the CEO and said: "Do I need to still lift my leg?" The CEO cough as he replied: "No, sir, about that, it''s done already, they will process everything." Zhihao sighed as he figured that, Yanlan used her special privilege wisely. he was used without his knowledge definitely. The CEO sighed then said: "Sir, It is my genuine pleasure having to do business with you" then he forward his hand asking for a handshake. Zhihao smiled then shook his hand as he said: "No worries, It''s my personal needs, so I`m just buying what I need." The CEO smiled then was about to talk, but was interrupted by someone. "Excuse me sir, we''d like to also buy that mansion but, that man beat us through it with only 15 seconds" It was the manager of Zheng Shuan. Zheng Shuan immediately frowned her eyebrows as she said: "CEO, Pardon my manager''s attitude, but we don''t really need the mansion anymore." The CEO sighed, he can''t clash with either of the two, one is a superstar, while the other one is a multi-millionaire, which would you even offend if it''s you. then the CEO said :"Don''t worry about it, It was my..." But before he could finish, Zheng Shuan continued. Zheng Shuan spoke: "But, I`m still searching for a mansion, definitely must be close to the one that this guy bought, because the scenery would be good there, and fresh air, and no noisy neighbor" Immediately, the CEO, Manager, and the rest of observers face palmed themselves as black lines appeared on their forehead. everyone was thinking. "You are a superstar! you shouldn''t behave like this missy!" The CEO sighed as he said: "Miss Zheng Shuan, Don''t worry, but the mansion near the one he bought is currently under construction" Zheng Shuan smiled then she said :"That''s good, so long as it gets done quicky, I wouldn''t mind!" Everyone sighed, yeah it is definitely love. Then The CEO spoke: "I`ll do my best Ms. Zheng." Zhihao then spoke :"Mister CEO, when''s my files going to be finished?" The CEO immediately replied :"This Sir, It would be finished within a few minutes. please wait for a bit" Zhihao smiled then he nodded. but when he was about to wear his sunglasses. a voice called out to him. "Oppa can we take a picture now? You wouldn''t be doing anything now, just waiting right?" It was Zheng Shuan. Zhihao sighed, this girl is persistant, then he said :"Actually, I need to get the phones I bought in the Phone Department" Zheng Shuan then said: "Oh? really!? That''s great! I need to buy one and return here too! what a coincident, let''s go together!" Zheng Shuan looked at Zhihao as she hopingly suggested. Zhihao sighed as he nodded and said: "Okay" Chapter 77 POWERLESSNESS Zhihao sighed as he proceeded into his walk towards the Cellphone department store. Zheng Shuan also followed suit, as she casually glanced at him, and take a few pictures of him. sometimes even making a few skin contacts, like leaning her back against Zhihao''s shoulder, making a V sign and taking a picture of it. When they saw Zheng Shuan walking inside the mall, everyone was shocked and excited, but the one beside her is also stunningly handsome, they haven''t seen someone as good looking as that even within the entertainment circle. Immediately, before they could enter the cellphone department. Reporters came flooding inside the mall. Zheng Shuan noticed this as she frowned and said: "Ehh?, My alone time would be finished this early?" Zheng shuan pouted as she sighed, well she already took about a hundred photos, but she wanted more. Then the Reporters immediately went to block them one by one. And immediately asked questions. -Miss Zheng! I`m from Dagkan TV, Who''s this guy beside you? is that your secret lover? -Miss Zheng, I`m from the Beida TV, What type of status does both of you have? -Miss Zheng! -Miss Zheng! -Miss Zh... Zhihao sighed as he evaded them and proceeded towards the Cellphone Department store. but before he could enter, another five reporters blocked his way of entry as they asked questions immediately. -Sir! what''s your relationship with Miss Zheng? -Sir! do you have any relationship with miss Zheng? what''s your standing in life? -Sir, How come you and Miss Zheng knew together?. -Sir! how frequently do you and Miss Zheng see each other? -Sir, in what line of work are you in? Zhihao crisped his brows then said: "We''re strangers, If you guys got more question, just ask her, she''s got nothing to do with me. Make way or I`ll shove you all aside" Zhihao finally got annoyed, there are too many people bothering him today. and he only has one day to spend. Zheng Shuan saw how Zhihao is already getting annoyed, immediately she rushed forward, going between them, distancing the Reporters and Zhihao, then she said: "Please don''t bother him further, we''re really strangers, I don''t even know his name! Please don''t bother him! Please! It''s a one-sided love!" Zheng Shuan immediately realized her words, she immediately blushed. -A.. A... One-sided love! Write it, write it! -Did you record it? you did?? Great! -Have you caught everything on video? good, I`ll ask them to give you a bonus later. -Did we get anything? We got everything? That''s great! -What did we get?.... -..... Zhihao just sighed as he looked at Zheng Shuan, then he spoke: "You guys need to at least, give some privacy to the people that are giving fame to your country, such a garbage system, why would you guys even exist, all you guys do is provide false information, and lead the masses into the path of blindness towards the outside world." then Zhihao immediately went inside the Cellphone store. -What luck! Such a shameless guy! -Why did Miss Zheng fall for that type of guy! -Hoo, I`d like to see his face, Let''s bash him up! -Good Idea... -Ohh... When Zheng Shuan heard this, she immediately thought ''It''s all my fault! why didn''t i wear some cover and walked while taking picture of him, why did I do it,'' then she remembered something her mother said to her before =Falling in-love makes us woman do stupid things for them= Zheng Shuan smiled when she finally remembered it. then she spoke to the Reporters then said: "Make one more move, and I`ll quit being an actress, I`ll cancel all my contracts." she paused then looked at Zhihao inside the Cellphone store, then she looked at the reporters and said: "Let''s see how millions of my fans deal with your company" after finishing those words, Zheng Shuan smiled as she walked towards Zhihao. Zhihao smiled when he heard those words, then he approached the saleslady and asked: "Are my phones ready?" The saleslady just nodded as she handed the three phones to Zhihao. then looked at the figure coming inside their store. Zheng Shuan said: "I need the same one he''s using, can you wrap one of those immediately, I need to return with him immediately" She then smiled as he looked at Zhihao then said: "Can you wait for me? It`ll be for a minute, I can''t walk alone, without anyone to protect me, I might be assaulted" looking at Zhihao with pleading eyes. Zhihao sighed as he nodded, then he said: "You can take a picture now, I won''t be doing anything while waiting for you anyways" Zheng Shuan smiled as she said: "You should''ve done that earlier" then immediately getting her phone out of her purse. then spoke: "Can you take off your sunglasses this time? pretty please?" Zhihao smiled then sighed, he took out his sunglasses and replied: "Better?" The crowd of people immediately exclaimed "A Match made in Heaven!" The other people and even the reporters quickly nodded, while the Cameraman kept shooting the video. Zheng Shuan smiled as she said: "Much, very much better than with one!" she then paused for a bit then "Click!" sound was heard when she spoke again: "We still have a little bit more time can I have more pictures?" Zhihao smiled as he nodded. Zhen Shuan handed the phone to the manager of the department then said: "Can you please take a picture of us together?" The manager immediately smiled as she nodded. Zhihao and Zheng Shuan pose a few times, when, well Zheng Shuan jokingly told him to make different poses, and like training Zhihao, Zheng Shuan made Zhihao pose into different ones. Then when the last one was about to be shot, Zheng Shuan looked at Zhihao as she held his hand. Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Immediately, The reporters even the bystanders started taking pictures. Zheng Shuan immediately let Zhihao''s hand go. and got close to the manager and got her phone back, as she said: "Thank you manager" as she bowed. Zhihao sighed, everything in his eyes was a slow motion that time, he could''ve had evaded it. but that would humiliate the lady. So he just accepted it. this is definitely the first time he felt the POWERLESSNESS, after reviving to his second life. Zhihao then said: "Let''s return to the 5th floor, I need to get my files from the CEO." Zheng Shuan smiled, but there was a prickling sensation that she could feel inside her heart. then she sighed as she spoke in a low tone: "Are these the feeling of rejection? haaaa, First time experiencing it kind of hurts a lot huh!" Zheng Shuan followed behind Zhihao, as she stared at his back Zhihao with his upgraded sense, definitely heard it, as he sighed. he led the way back to the 5th floor. He can''t accept the love of another woman without the permission of the readers after all. Chapter 78 BUYING TOOLS Zhihao and Zheng Shuan finally made it back to the fifth floor. Zheng Shuan separated from Zhihao and head back to the Manager, Glancing at Zhihao, she sighed, as she thought ''Is my first love going to end up just like this?'' thinking like that, she immediately sighed. Zhihao seeing her mood slightly sighed, then he spoke to the CEO: "Is everything done?" The CEO replied as he said: "Everything''s been done sir, You can check the documents, if you think I forgot something, you can just call me, This is my calling card." The CEO handed his card immediately. Zhihao received it and said: "Thank you, I`ll be leaving now" The CEO immediately called out: "Sir! You forgot these!" The CEO handed the keys to Zhihao and then continued: "It''s a pleasure doing business with you sir" Zhihao nodded as he said: "Yes, It''s a pleasure doing business" then he immediately walked towards the elevator. Zheng Shuan, was crying inside, he wanted to stop Zhihao, her tears are already filling up her eyes, as her heart tightened further, she felt that its getting harder and harder to breathe. Seeing the silhouette of the man she fell in love with walking away in front of her. It''s seriously the first time she felt something like that towards the opposite sex. Couldn''t hold on anymore to her feelings, she ran and followed Zhihao to the elevator. The Manager sighed, then got into his phone to call Zheng Shuan''s Mother. when someone picked up. The manager spoke: "Madame, I have something to report to you about your daughter" then retold the story immediately. Hanging up the phone, The manager immediately proceeded towards the elevator, as he saw that it was blinking on the ground floor, making it obvious that the Elevator would stop at the ground floor. he immediately rode the other elevator and pressed ground floor. Immediately when the door is almost closing, Zheng Shuan finally caught up with Zhihao. but then she got nervous and wouldn''t know what to do next. Then Zhihao spoke: "Are you going anywhere? your manager is still there, who would protect you without him?" Zheng Shuan wanted to speak but couldn''t utter any words, everything was stuck in her throat. Zhihao sighed then just pressed the ground floor, where his car is parked. when the both of them finally reached the ground floor, Zhihao pressed the alarm on his car, then the alarm sounded as he walks toward his car. Zheng Shuan followed nervously behind Zhihao. Then Zhihao asked: "Miss Zheng, Is there anything else?" Zheng Shuan shook her head looking at the ground, as tears were already falling from her eyes. Zhihao sighed then continued to his car, when he finally reached there he rode his car then said: "Miss Zheng it is nice knowing you, If it''s by chance maybe fate would make us cross paths again" Zheng Shuan''s tears bursts as she held her voice, then she stopped her tears as she said: "Number!" Zhihao looked at Shuan as he asked: "Number?" Zheng Shuan replied: "Let''s exchange number, Can I contact you sometimes?" Zhihao sighed then replied: "Okay!" then he handed his phone to Zheng Shuan. Zheng Shuan''s face immediately brightened up as she held Zhihao''s phone then copied his number. then after a few seconds, she handed the phone back. Zhihao noticed that the manager is almost there, so he just needs to stall for a few more breathes, then he spoke: "Well, Nice meeting you again." After saying that, he started his engine, as he looked at the manager. The manager saw this, then sighed, the other party stalled for time until he can reach the area, so that Shuan wouldn''t be caught in any trouble. what consideration. Zhihao started his car and immediately drove towards his newly bought mansion. The Manager approached Zheng Shuan then said: "I called your mother, about what happened, She''ll be calling you after her meeting, or might meet up with you after that. The manager paused then handed a handkerchief as he said: "Come, Let me take you to your mother" Zheng Shuan nodded. _____________________ After 30 minutes, Zhihao arrived at his mansion, there was a man standing there. The Man opened the gate with the remote, as he handed it to Zhihao then immediately spoke: "Sir, I`m here to help you do some things, Like hiring some security guards, Maids and such. is there anything you`d like to request?" the man smiled politely Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Hire some house keepers, gardener and security guards, oh and also hire some chefs" The man spoke: "Sir how many?" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "About 30 of them, fix their Monthly salary to an above average, About $100 more, that''s enough right??" he only got $200 a month when he was working in labor, so he didn''t know how much this The man immediately replied: "Sir, that''s definitely more than enough" then he paused then continued: "That''s $300 for the maids, $350 for the gardener, $480 for the chef, and $350 for the guards" Zhihao nodded then he said: "I want them all here tomorrow morning, I`ll be leaving for a business trip tomorrow, 3PM"Then after speaking, Zhihao handed $500 to the man and immediately went inside, as he parked his car in the garage. The man sighed then said: "Rich people definitely lives in a different world than us" then he immediately contacted their headquarters to post the hiring notification. _________________ After entering inside, Zhihao immediately searched the internet for any farming tools company, rice company, meat company, the bank and such. all the needs he needed to buy. Zhihao firstly called the Tools company. Then immediately after the second ring, someone answered: "Good afternoon, This is the Almighty steels Company, How may I help you?" Zhihao replied: "I need some farming equipments about 100k pieces each, but only those that wouldn''t need gas, and electricity, or battery." The staff immediately replied: "Ah, 100k? ahh okay sir 100 pieces of each of our tools that wouldn''t need battery, gas or electricity right?" Zhihao replied again: "100 thousand, not 100 pieces" The staff immediately got shock as she said: "Sir please wait, I need to contact the higher management" Zhihao just casually replied: "Okay" 15 Hours 39 minutes 33 seconds left until the Host returns to the cultivation world Chapter 79 HALF OF THE DAY DONE! Immediately, after just a few breathes time, a man replied in the call. "Sir, are you serious about buying 100k pieces of our tools?" Zhihao sighed, well if he was ordered like that too, he''ll be shocked so he understood their shock and question, then he replied: "Yes, but I need them tomorrow morning" The man on the phone replied: "Okay sir! but we''ll have to calculate first" he then paused as he replied: "Tomorrow morning?!" Zhihao replied: "Yes, The sooner the better." the man on the phone replied: "Sir, wait, let me contact our superiors" Zhihao sighed, as he shook his head, would he need to wait like this with the other ones too? Then a new man answered the phone: "Sir, I`m the president of the company, Are you serious about your orders?" Zhihao sighed then replied: "Yes, but I need them tomorrow morning." The man replied: "Sir, We`ll be sending a man in your house to confirm your contract, while we immediately prepare your orders" he didn''t use the word payment, so to prevent himself from sounding impolite. Zhihao finally sighed in relief as he replied: "That''s good, I`ll wait, my address is XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" Zhihao immediately hanged up the phone, then called the bank. A staff immediately answered: "Hello sir, This is China National Security Bank, what would you like to inquire?" Zhihao replied immediately: "I`d like to make a deposit, but all my money is in my house, I can''t bring it to the bank" The staff got annoyed, how much money would it be needed to ask for the bank for them to send some people?, then she replied: "Sir, how much would you like to deposit?" the woman wanted to finish this annoying conversation already. Zhihao replied: "I`ll be depositing $160 Billion, I`d like to have a fast transfer immediately" The staff sighed as she thought, only 160 dollars and you wanted us to go there? then she paused as she asked: "Sir, $160 Billion?!" Zhihao replied immediate: "Yes! Please, I`m in a hurry!" the staff immediately replied: "Yes sir let me contact my superiors to send some personnel in your house" the staff immediately got up as she run towards her manager. Then the manager picked up the phone as she asked: "Sir, I would like to know your name?" Zhihao replied again: "Zhong Zhihao, my address is XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX, I`d like to make the transfer as fast as possible, I`ll be going to a business trip afterwards" The manager immediately checked his record, and was shocked, how much money is this guy even using! he''s already used almost $15M in a days time!, then She immediately replied: "Sir, We''ll immediately send some armored trucks towards your address and an accountant to count the money, no some accountants!" Zhihao replied: "Make it faster please, I`m in a rush" The manager immediately replied: "Yes sir, As soon as possible!" then she heard Zhihao hanging up the phone and immediately called the main bank. Zhihao repeated the other process with the things he needed, like meat, Rich and such. but the baby needs he wanted to buy it himself, so he just wanted to finish everything and immediately buy his babies'' toys. Then the bank came 30 minutes after he called them. there were 10 Armored vehicles, and 10 cars immediately arrived at his gate. there were 30 accountants all females, and even the armored guards were females, all 25 of them, a total of 55 females entered Zhihao''s Mansion. Zhihao summoned his all his $ on to a Vacant room. Then Zhihao led them inside. the accountants immediately undressed themselves, until there is only a night gown and underwear left. It is to prevent them from stealing any money. Zhihao sighed, as he can see that these women actually liked it, when they undressed in front of him. Well which female wouldn''t want a young, Billionaire as their husband, of course they would show off their curvaceous body immediately. although it''s their rules, they weren''t against it. A lot of accountant crossed the heaven''s gate and ascended the heavens through this method too. After counting the money, The accountants would transfer it into a suitcase. while the female guards would take it to the armored vehicle. Zhihao continued his calls to the other companies as they counted the money. After a few hours, the accounts and guards finally finished their duties, and immediately went away. some of the accountants even winked at Zhihao before they entered the car. Zhihao sighed witnessing such sight. Zhihao stretched his arms as he finally finished his list of things to do. he sighed as he never felt exhausted like this since his rebirth. Finally, Zhihao made his foothold in Earth. then he spoke: "Next time I come here, I`ll visit my parents." Zhihao snickered, thinking of what would his parents would think when he sees them, or what kind of face would they make. Zhihao immediately went inside his mansion then spoke to the system ''System, how many days would pass by in earth when I return to the cultivation realm?'' *Ding!* =Host, when you go back to the cultivation realm, the time in earth would be slowed by 5 folds, a Month''s time in the cultivation world would take 4 days of absence in Earth. Zhihao nodded then he got onto his bed and sleep, but before that, he said ''System, I would like to thank you, for giving me a second chance in life'' *Ding!* =No problem host" Zhihao smiled then said: "I`ll see you in 4days, Mother, Father, you failure of a parent" Zhihao smiled as he slowly fell asleep into the dead of night, It was already 9PM when he finished talking to every orders he made. and exactly at that time, was that the bank finished counting his billions. they immediately added his fund before they left. Now It''s 11 PM. 13 hours, 23 minutes 55 seconds left until Zhihao returns to the cultivation world. Chapter 80 HEART TO HEAR After Seeing Zhihao off, Zheng Shuan followed her manager to their Van. The Manager spoke: "How are you feeling?" Zheng Shuan replied: "I`m fine" she sighed after speaking. The manager spoke again: "Do you need something?" "Let''s just call it a day for now, I`m tired." Zheng Shuan felt exhausted and sad. The manager sighed as he said: "Okay, I`ll drop you at your house for now" Zheng Shuan just nodded and didn''t speak any further. _______________ After a few an hour of driving, they finally arrived at Zheng Shuan''s house. Zheng Shuan bid her manager farewell: "See you tomorrow, Manager Li" then she immediately entered their house''s gate. Manager Li just nodded and immediately drove off when he saw Zheng Shuan entered their house. then he sighed as he spoke: "Can''t prevent someone from falling in-love" ______________ After entering the House, Zheng Shuan removed her heels and immediately wore their house''s slipper. She immediately went inside and laid in the sofa in their living room. she turned on the T.V and watched some news. What appeared in front of her immediately made her sigh, as a superstar, she could barely have any private life. and now, she just barely had a picture with her first love, and it''s being informed to the public immediately. She sighed as she watched the television. News anchor 1: "Zheng Shuan! one of our china''s top celebrity was caught on video with a man. in WP mall just this afternoon!" News anchor 2: "I Couldn''t believe it myself when I heard it first," News Anchor 1: "Yeah, I mean, the Frozen Princess, Zheng Shuan? In-love?" News Anchor 2: "Hahaha, I couldn''t believe it myself, let''s watch the replay first" Immediately, behind the Two news anchor, a screen appeared, then a video played. "Please don''t bother him further, we''re really strangers, I don''t even know his name! Please don''t bother him! Please! It''s a one-sided love!" It was Zheng Shuan''s video when she shouted at the mall. News anchor 1: "Hahahaha, that''s definitely a love confession" News Anchor 2: "I seriously, couldn''t belie...." But before he could finish, the TV turned off. then a Silhouette appeared behind Zheng Shuan. Zheng Shuan immediately called out: "Mom!" her mother, Zheng Lin immediately sighed as she immediately hugged her daughter then said: "It''s okay, It is normal" Zheng Shuan replied: "Mom, You`re early today, what about the company?" "Nothing is more important than my daughter of course." Zheng Shuan''s mother spoke. Shuan eyes were immediately filled with tears as she cried: "Mom!, wuuu wuuu wuuu" Zheng Lin sighed as she said: "It''s okay, Shuan''er, cry it all out" _________________ After a few minutes of crying and tearing up, Zheng Shuan finally calmed down. Zheng Shuan''s mother started the conversation first: "Shuan''er, I`m gonna tell you a story, It was my first love''s story." Zheng Shuan opened her eyes then asked: "It''s not father?" Zheng Lin smiled as she replied: "Of course he is, well, I was only 18 at that time, and when i first saw your father, I fell in love with him immediately." then Lin smiled towards Shuan as she continued: "Much like how you felt towards that man, Right?" Zheng Shuan blushed as she nodded slowly. Zheng Lin continued: "I was a famous school belle at that time, but your father wouldn''t even notice me. But who cares, Why would I give up, when the one I want isn''t reacting to me right?" after speaking, Zheng Lin striked a pose like a winner. Zheng Shuan laughed at her as she nodded. Zheng Lin sighed then said: "But, I just bugged the hell out of him, every single day, whenever I see him, I`ll talk to him. and annoy him a lot" Zheng Shuan then curiously looked at her mom then asked: "What happened next?" Zheng Lin sighed then continued: "Well, Your dad got seriously got annoyed by that, and ignored me for a whole month" Zheng Shuan was shocked and wanted to ask. but Zheng Lin continued. "But after a month''s forcing my way to your father''s heart, I couldn''t budge his will, even an inch, then I started to wonder if he''s even a man" Zheng Lin spoke awkwardly. Zheng Shuan giggled when she heard her mom''s words. Zheng Lin then sighed as she said: "Well, I just stopped, and always looked at him from a far, well sometimes our gazes meet, sometimes it won''t" she paused for a bit then continued: "When the time that your dad completely ignored me, I stopped following him immediately" Zheng Shuan sighed as she noddedand asked: "Then what happened?" Zheng Lin smiled then said: "Well, for some unknown reason, your dad confessed to me another month later" Zheng Lin giggled as she spoke to that point. Zheng Shuan was bewildered then asked: "Mom! what happened? how''d you do that?" Zheng Lin smiled as she said: "There are things, you can''t force, and also things that wouldn''t come along the way you wanted it to happen" Zheng Lin spoke looking at her daughter. Zheng Shuan''s face immediately darkened when she thought about giving up Zhihao. Zheng Lin then continued: "But god won''t forsake those, that does everything within their ability to have the ones they love, and Fighting for your love, is not forcing, and wanting the fate to make you have that man, but It''s your will to have him, So be sure, that you fight for your love, and not give up, Until you have done everything you could" Finishing her speech, Zheng Lin kissed her daughter''s forehead and hugged her. Zheng Shuan''s face immediately brightened up as she cried and smiled. Then Zheng Shuan spoke: "Mom! I`ll fight for my love!" Chapter 81 CHAPTER 81 Morning came, It is exactly 5 AM in the morning, Zhihao Stretched his arm, then immediately his phone rang. Zhihao grabbed his phone then answered: "This is Zhihao" Immediately the voice on the other side of the phone exclaimed happily: "Sir! The tools are in front of your mansion now, where do we place it?" Zhihao replied: "Wait, I`ll go out now, wait for me at the gate" The man replied immediately: "Yes sir!" Zhihao wore his t-shirt, pants, and shoes immediately. then he went straight to the bathroom to wash his face, and brush his teeth. after a few minutes of personal hygiene. Zhihao immediately walked towards the gate. when he arrived, what assaulted his vision is almost 100, 10 wheeler trucks! with big crates on it!. Zhihao sighed as he said: "You guys can just deliver my items in the back of the mansion." Immediately the man replied: "You heard the man! Quickly move!" Immediately after hearing the words, the thousand of men went down their trucks and vans, as they prepared to bring everything out of the trucks.. after a few minutes, another call was vibrated from Zhihao''s pocket, he immediately picked up the phone and answer: "This is Zhihao." The man on the other side of the phone immediately answered: "Boss! We''re from the Silky Soft white Rice company!, we`re already here but there are trucks on the road, we can''t enter further, We''ve brought all a Million sack of rice" Zhihao sighed then said: "You can go here for now, and let your men wait in the gates. the trucks would finish unloading any minute now" The Rice man immediately replied: "Yes boss! We''re on our way!" after a few minutes, they arrived at the gate and said: "Boss! We''re here, Woah! Farming tools? that''s a lot!" Zhihao smiled but didn''t reply. The Tool man immediately came to Zhihao then said: "Sir!, All of the tools had been unloaded" Zhihao nodded then said: "Good job, Here, Divine it on yourselves" immediately after speaking, Zhihao handed a bag of money then continued: "There''s $250k in there, Just share it with your men" The cargo men''s exhausted look immediately brightened up, they were grumbling when they had to deliver the tools behind the mansion, but being given a handsome tip like that! It is worth it! Definitely!. The Tool Man smiled then replied: "Thank you sir! these guys would definitely be happy about this tip!, see you again sir, on another business transaction!" then the tool man waved at his men to come to the truck immediately. The Rice man and his goons'' face immediately brightened up. then the Rice man exclaimed: "Prepare yourself! NO SLACKING OFF!" the Rice man''s sleepy face vanished after he saw the generous tip!, well who wouldn''t? The Rice Man''s Goons immediately smiled as they replied: "Yes sir! It will be a piece of cake! no a piece of butter!" then they immediately called the drivers to prepare, and even informed them about the Tip. The same things also happened to the Meat deliverer and the rest of the delivery teams that went after. __________________ After 3 hours, everything went smoothly and rather very quickly, with the inspirational buffs that Zhihao gave them, it boosted their working efficiency by 10 folds. Zhihao placed all of the things on his spatial rings, immediately the 7 Interspatial Rings he brought from the cultivation world was filled to the brim. Zhihao sighed as he headed towards the gate. Then Zhihao noticed a group of men and women approaching his mansion. Then a butler man look a like approached Zhihao then said: "Sir, We''re form the agency that was hired yesterday, We were informed that you hired us?" Zhihao nodded then replied: "Yes, I`ll be leaving the mansion in your hands, I`ll be going on a business trip after this. I`ll be gone for a week more or less." Then the Butler look a like man nodded and said: "Yes Master, Just leave the mansion to us" Zhihao nodded then handed over $250k then said: "This is a maintenance fee, also all of your expenses, I`d like to have the mansion redecorated by the time I come back, the left over you guys can share" The hired care takers were shocked, but also happy, $250K! what kind of concept was that! Even The Butler look a like man gulped down his saliva then said: "We''ll do our best Master! and master, The agency said that you can just pay them the money and they will be responsible for distributing our wages" Zhihao nodded then immediately went inside. as he wanted to take care of his self, by taking a bath. before heading out to buy some things for his babies, babes and their necessities. Seeing Zhihao''s silhouette vanishing, the Butler look a like man said: "You guys, scatter as we''ll immediately work! We got a decent boss this time! don''t make us look stupid!" Immediately the care takers smiled then replied: "Of course!" then they immediately went and did their own duties and responsibilities. _______________ After 30 minutes, Zhihao rode his car then said to the butler: "I`ll be going out now. be sure to take care of the mansion" The butler like man immediately replied: "Yes master, You can just call me Butler Ma, leave everything to me" Zhihao nodded then immediately drove away. then he sighed as he spoke: "Am I meant to have a butler that would always be named Butler Ma? this is a weird coincidence" then he drove to the gates. Then A silhouette was standing at the gates, the guard was about to inform the butler, then he saw Zhihao, as he bowed then said: "Master, There''s a woman waiting for you here" Zhihao nodded then he got down from his car and looked at the woman. it was Zheng Shuan! Zhihao sighed then said: "Is there any problem miss Zheng?" Zheng shuan looked at Zhihao as she firmed her will then replied: "Are you going anywhere? Sir Zhong?" Zhihao nodded then replied: "I`m going to the mall, to buy some necessities" Zheng Shuan smiled then she spoke: "Can I come with you then?, my manager already left" Zhihao sighed again as he nodded then said: "You can" Zhihao is still a gentleman after all, so he opened the Car''s Passenger door. then said: "Please" Zheng Shuan smiled as she nodded then said: "Thank you" Zhihao nodded as he also entered the car. 2 hours 49 minutes 53 seconds left until the it''s the time to return to the cultivation world. Chapter 82 EHHHH?! Finally Arriving at the mall, Zhihao parked his car. Then they both entered the mall together. The Crowds of people gave way to them, then a wave of chatters immediately flooded the air. -Eh!? That news was true? -Wow! didn''t think that would be the case! -Look at that! That guy is extremely handsome too! -Definitely a couple made in heaven! -Nooo! my Zheng Shuan! -Who''s yours kid! you couldn''t even match her partner. Zheng Shuan smiled when she heard the word, A couple made in heaven. then she looked at Zhihao''s reaction but she got disappointed immediately, his facial expression isn''t changing at all. ____________ After a while, they finally reached the Beauty store / Costmetic store. Zhihao immediately bought some shampoo, soap, and such, all for ladies. Immediately buying different kinds of things and brands. Zheng Shuan pondered then thought ''maybe he''s buying things for his mother or sisters''. after thinking something like that. Zheng Shuan followed Zhihao then recommended something she uses herself. Zhihao smiled at her then said: "Thanks" Zheng Shuan''s heart immediately pumped harder after that smile. ______________ After buying some things, Zhihao immediately went to the Toddler section. Zheng Shuan''s smile immediately froze, then she thought ''Maybe his mother''s newborn? or cousin''s newborn? Elder sister''s newborn?'' she kept comforting herself from the worst case scenario. Then immediately, the crowd of people went into frenzy! -Eh?? they entered the Toddler Section? -Is our Zheng Shuan pregnant!? -What!? No Way! -Noooo! My goddess! -Wow! That was fast, It was just reported yesterday! -Maybe that''s why they showed themselves to the public! -Woah! the guy! look at the guy''s face! -WOW! So handsome! -I couldn''t see on the news yesterday, but the guy''s face is definitely on the top list! The crowd immediately gathered, as reporters started taking pictures in the distance. Zheng Shuan smiled as she thought, ''This misunderstanding isn''t bad itself!, I kinda want to do this everyday with him'', then she smiled again as she followed Zhihao further to the Toddler section. then Zheng Shuan couldn''t prevent herself from asking the quest: "Hey" Zhihao replied: "Oh, I`m Zhihao, you can call me that" Zheng Shuan''s face brightened immediately then she asked: "So which person''s baby are you buying this things for?" Zhihao replied: "Ohh, its for my babies and wives" Zheng Shuan smiled then replied: "Oh, so it''s for your wif... wives?!" Zhihao smiled then nodded Zheng Shuan immediately replied: "Wait! Wives? you have two spouse?!" Zhihao smiled then replied: "Actually it''s three" Zheng Shuan''s eyes immediately felt lifeless as she muttered to herself: "th.. thr... Three?" Zhihao still heard her small voice then replied: "yeah, and two baby" Zheng Shuan felt like her world is crumbling down as she stared at the smiling Zhihao while he searched for good things to buy. Zheng Shuan immediately replied: "Ah, Zhihao, I`ll be going to the toilet first!" Zhihao nodded the continued browsing. Zheng Shuan immediately run to the bathroom section. After a few seconds, she finally arrived. then immediately pulled out her phone then called her mom :"Mom!" Zheng Lin replied immediately :"Shuan''er what happened?" Shuan immediately replied: "He''s MARRIED! and three wives!" Zheng Lin immediately exclaimed: "What!?" then she paused for a bit then continued: "Well, does it bother you? if it does, you can stop now" Shuan immediately got shocked, does it bother her? the society forbids wedding with more wives, because some male couldn''t provide for the family. but still, sharing the man you love with others? she finds it unthinkable. Shuan then replied solemnly: "Mom, I`ll think about it for a while." Zheng Lin sighed then continued: "There are countries, accepting multiple marriage, maybe you should think about it too, though personally, I`m against it. but to you, would you mind giving up your love for the pride of having a husband alone?" Shuan replied: "Thanks mom, I`ll go for now" after hanging up, she sighed as she walked back towards the toddler section. She made her resolve, ''I`m going to give up on him after today'' Then when she saw Zhihao carrying all the things he brought while smiling, her heart ached further. she shook her head, as she had already resolved her decision, to give up on her first love. Zhihao approached her: "I`m done with buying things'' I`ll go now." Zheng Shuan smiled as she nodded and said: "I`ll accompany you until the parking lot." Zhihao smiled then nodded, then he walked towards the elevator, Zheng Shuan followed behind him. Seeing Zhihao''s wide back, she asked: "So, where are your wives and babies?" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "They are in a far away place, so much further away than you could imagine" Zheng Shuan sighed as she thought, ''so it really is a different country'' then she said: "How old are your babies?" Zhihao replied: "They will be two years old this year, they are cute babies, they have their mother''s genes running through them, especially their hairs, it perfectly matches their mother''s" Zheng Shuan clutched her hand as she thought ''You are definitely a good man, but I can''t let myself share my man with other women, I have to give up on my fantasies'' then she continued: "You must love them really well" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied: "Of course, They are my life after all." Zheng Shuan''s heart kept aching whenever she sees Zhihao''s bright smile when talking about his wives, and babies. Then they arrived at the Parking lot. Zhihao pretended to place the items he bought on the trunk, placing it one by one as he inserted it on his spatial ring. Then Zheng Shuan sighed as she said: "It was nice knowing you, Zhihao" then she extended her hand for a handshake. Zhihao smiled then he said: "It was nice being your acquaintance Miss Zheng" then he extended his hands to her. Zheng Shuan didn''t release Zhihao''s hand then she replied: "Farewell" tears were already gathering in her eyes, as she held Zhihao''s hand with hers. Zhihao smiled then nodded: "Yeah, Farewe..." but before he could finish saying anything. there was a notification. *Ding!* =Time''s Up! Returning to the cultivation world!. Immediately The floor below Zhihao and Zheng Shuan immediately cracked open as a void space appeared. Zhihao and Zheng Shuan both exclaimed: "EHHhh?!" immediately, both of them fell inside as Zheng Shuan shouted: "AHHHHHHHHHHH! NOOOO!! WHAT''S HAPPENIIIIIIIIIIIINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!" Time Remaining : 0 Hours 0 Minutes 0 Seconds until coming back to the cultivation world! Chapter 83 HOMECOMING After being swallowed by the void, Zhihao and Zheng Shuan were both immediately spat out of it. Before Zheng Shuan could speak, she immediately vomited all the food she ate this morning. Zhihao seeing the scene, immediately patted her back, to comfort the poor little soul. Zheng Shuan being patted in the back by Zhihao immediately blushed. then she took a handkerchief inside her bag then wiped her mouth with it. Zheng Shuan immediately remembered something as she exclaimed: "Where are we.... we were... we were.... we were dragged! by a black hole!" then she thought for a second ''then we''re like two people stranded on an island!'' she smiled as she continued thinking ''Even god is helping me'' Then Zhihao spoke: "Don''t worry, I`ll protect you here, nothing can harm you" Zheng Shuan''s face immediately brightened up as she nodded. then she thought, ''maybe getting here is a blessing in disguise, but my mom, I wonder how she would feel.'' Zhihao meant that it''s his territory, so no one would mess with her when he brings her inside the Empire. Zheng Shuan then looked around, then she just noticed, that they are beside a very tall wall, it looked like the Great Wall of China, but bigger, and more solid! Zheng Shuan Exclaimed: "eh? Did we time travel back in time?!" Zhihao sighed as he said: "Come, Let''s go, the gate is over there." Zhihao pointed at the direction which a lot of people are lining up to enter the gates. Zheng Shuan figured out that Zhihao only noticed the people. so he might''ve deduced that It''s the gate. Zheng Shuan nodded, then followed Zhihao from behind. After a few moments, the Guards finally saw Zhihao as they greeted: "Lord! Welcome back!" The Crowd of people also looked as they all smiled and greeted: "Welcome back LORD!" The Crowd of people immediately has a brightened up aura, Seeing the Ruler of the empire, some might not even see him once in their lifetime, but they finally saw him today, now they are feeling inspired. Zheng Shuan was shocked, then she looked behind her, thinking that their Ruler is with them. but after searching for a while, she couldn''t see anyone. Then she looked at Zhihao as she said: "You are the lord of this city?" Zhihao sighed as he smiled towards Zheng Shuan then said: "It''s actually my Empire" Zheng Shuan exclaimed: "EHH? EMPIRE?!" Zhihao nodded then said: "Come, I`ll introduce you to my wives." Zheng Shuan just blankly stared at his back, then followed closely behind him. Zhihao smiled at the guards and spoke: "Good work, Keep up the good job" then looked at the line of people as he said: "You guys, don''t slack off! you got families to feed" The Citizens and the Guards smiled as they all spoke: "Yes Lord!" Zhihao has zero cultivation level right now, so all he could do is walk. every citizens and cultivators of his empire Greeted him. Zheng Shuan eyes and mouth were wide open, she''s definitely seeing things, a person with cat''s ear? dog''s ears? bat wings? tail? Her eyes rolled upward as she finally lost her final will and fainted. she was about to hit the land, but Zhihao immediately caught her and immediately lifted her up in a princess carry position. Zhihao sighed as he said: "I knew this would happen" then he immediately walked towards the Floating Fortress. Zhihao then spoke to the system ''Why''d you bring her along?'' *Ding!* =Host, I didn''t. she fell, you just didn''t pay attention to the time. I Strictly said 24 Hours, and then the time just got used up. Zhihao sighed as he said: "Okay, Okay, I get it, It''s my fault" *Ding!* =It''s good that you know. Zhihao sighed again, he can''t rebuke this system no matter what he does. ________________ After a few minutes of walking, He finally came close to the Floating Fortress. after that, two silhouettes immediately descended from the sky, It is Ling Ning''er and Shen Xiao''er. they noticed his aura, as they immediately went their way to greet him. Xiao''er and Ning''er immediately spoke: "Welcome back Hus...." but before they could finish their words. their smile froze as they looked at the woman in Zhihao''s arms. Then Verushka came following too, and was about to say: "Wel...." She also stopped half way, as she looked at Ning''er and Xiao''er. Immediately, the three of them have this calm face, but an inexplainable terrifyingly invisible aura is being emitted from them. The trio spoke simultaneously spoke at the same time: "Who?" in a calm but deathly manner. Zhihao sighed as he replied: "Well, there is one thing that I can say for sure, and that is It''s now what you three are thinking about" The Trio sighed as they nodded, They trust their husband''s words more than anything, then Ning''er asked: "Who''s she?" Zhihao replied immediately: "Well, you guys see, that I traveled to a different world, to buy the things you guys wanted, but when I was about to return back here, She got dragged in together with me" he paused again then continued: "The place that she came from was a land where only mortal people live." The trio asked: "Eh? Only mortals lived on her plane?" Zhihao replied: "No, their world" The three of them were shocked then Verushka spoke: "You had gone to another world?!" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Yes, and in that place, there is only human race, that''s why she must''ve been too shocked seeing the demon race and beast kin." The Three of them nodded together seemingly understood everything. Then Verushka Asked: "So, are you adding her to as one of us?" Zhihao shook his head then said: "No, well, I`ll need a month''s time before I could return Miss Zheng to her original planet" Ning''er replied immediately: "Well, her''s looks are good, and oh!, for a mortal, her skin is fairly soft too, I wouldn''t mind, I`ll just check her personality for a month''s time then I`ll decide" Verushka replied: "Well, Ning Jiejie and Xiao Jiejie, you can decide, I`m all good whatever you both choose" then she immediately walked out. Zhihao called out to her: "Honey, I brought you some goods from the other world" Immediately, Zhihao pulled a Smartphone out of his Interspatial Ring. Verushka replied: "I don''t need such thi..." But before she could finish her words, the Smartphone played a video of an Anime, where there is a fight going on. then she spoke: "Give me! I need to research that thing!" Immediately after saying those words, she snatched the phone and flew up into the floating fortress. Zhihao smiled then said to Ning''er: "Ning''er, Can you lift me up there? the effects of the Berserker God''s skill haven''t been removed yet." Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately looked at each other as they made a few signals in their eyes. Then Ning''er spoke: "Husband, there''s a good Eel we the fishermen caught earlier, they sold it in the market, you should try eating it" she paused as she signaled Xiao''er: "Xiao meimei, you should bring the guest and meet us at the chamber immediately, also inform Verushka about it" Xiao''er smiled then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "Yes, Ning jiejie" then snickered as she picked up Zheng Shuan and floated towards the Floating Fortress. Zhihao asked: "Ning''er are you planning something?" Ning''er replied: "Oh, nothing much, I just wish to celebrate your return from another world, and Oh! we actually have new good wines!, we should celebrate tonight! Definitely" Zhihao sighed as he nodded his head. Ning''er Immediately picked Zhihao up and floated towards the Floating Fortress. Zhihao smiled as he looked at his wife as he immediately looked ahead, but then he Missed the grin hanging at Ning''er''s lips exactly at the time he changed his view. Chapter 84 NO TITLE Ning''er dragged Zhihao to their chamber, Immediately, Xiao''er and Verushka followed suit. Zhihao pondered for a bit as he spoke: "What are you guys doing? is there something you guys need to talk about?" Ning''er smiled as she turned her back to Zhihao, then slowly closed the door, as she smiled devilishly beautiful at the camera. Zhihao sighed then spoke: "What are you guys being so secretive about?" Then Verushka immediately jumped at him then said: "We need to discuss something about me" Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately sat beside him, as they leaned towards Zhihao. Immediately Ning''er and Xiao''er removed Zhihao''s clothes. Although Xiao''er and Ning''er are embarrassed about what they are doing, Verushka requested something like this to happen, well since it''s their little sister''s request, It''s really hard to reject. Zhihao exclaimed: "Did you guys just planned this when I was gone?" Verushka smiled as she said: "I requested this from my two beloved sisters, Don''t worry honey, we got 28 more days!" her smile could be described innocently, but her eyes, full of ecstasy while looking at Zhihao full of expectation. Verushka now is riding Zhihao as Ning''er and Xiao''er held his arms. Verushka started to remove his lower garments slowly as she laughed and said: "Doing this once in a while isn''t bad" Zhihao asked immediately: "What do you mean?" Verushka immediately replied: "I saw it on the device you handed to me, the things there after a while of watching it one of those, you know, something like this happened, and that is what we are going to do now" Zhihao exclaimed: "What the hell did they put on the phone?!" Verushka, Ning''er and Xiao''er looked at each other then said: "Pun?" Zhihao replied: "The one that I gave Verushka earlier" the Trio exclaimed: "Ohh!" then Verushka continued: "Well, let''s just forget about that for now, Let''s continue what we are going to do" then Verushka placed the phone behind, as it continuously played the video. Verushka immediately kissed Zhihao as she slowly slid her hands down to Zhihao''s junior brother. Ning''er and Xiao''er both held Zhihao''s arms as they blushingly watched the Video from the phone that Verushka placed behind. After a few minutes, of watching, Both Ning''er and Xiao''er are blushing like crazy, as they both joined the fun with Verushka. ________________________ The Morning came, Zhihao became extremely exhausted. as he laid flat on the bed. Verushka is lying at his stomach, while Ning''er and Xiao''er is using his Arms as a pillow. Zhihao sighed, out of exhaustion from last night''s great event. Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately woke up, then kissed Zhihao as they got up from the bed and prepared to head to the bath. Zhihao smiled after receiving the kisses of his two beloved wives, then he kissed Verushka as he prepared to go to the bath as well. Zhihao immediately introduced the Soaps, Shampoo, and some Personal Hygiene items to them. The two women immediately experimented with them, and afterward took a liking to everything. they can''t wait to share these new things with Verushka. _______________ After a while, Zhihao removed his Interspatial rings as he handed it to both Xiao''er and Ning''er and told them what''s inside. Zhihao then brought Ning''er and Xiao''er to their babies, as he took out all the baby products and introduced it to the maids. Ning''er and Xiao''er were both shocked. then said: "What''s this?" Zhihao smiled as he pointed out one after the other explaining their uses. "This is a walker, Our baby can get inside to learn how to walk, This one is a milk powder, You place it here in the Milk bottle and add some water, one scoop of milk powder needs two ounces of water. but the water needs to be heated first. then this one is a diaper, you make our baby wear it so that he could pee in them, then immediately replace it when he poops on them. then this...." Zhihao explained everything to Ning''er, Xiao''er, and the maids. Then Zhihao handed the two smartphones to Ning''er and Xiao''er as he said: "This can be used to play, you can play games inside this phone" Ning''er and Xiao''er blushed immediately as they remembered what''s inside Verushka''s phone. Then Xiao''er asked: "Does this one also contains images like sis Verushka''s?" after speaking those words, Both Ning''er and Xiao''er blushed crazily. Zhihao sighed then said: "I haven''t checked about it, but there might be some images there. and also you can see yourself if you use the camera" Xiao''er and Ning''er questioningly asked: "Camera?" Zhihao smiled then said: "Here! click this, see! you can see your self! if you click this, you can see what''s in front" Xiao''er immediately exclaimed: "WOW! I can see my self! Is this a painting?!" Ning''er immediately followed: "I got one too!...." Zhihao explained everything one after the other. after a while, Someone came in. It''s butler Ma. he spoke: "Master, The guest that was unconscious yesterday kept saying that she wanted to see you" Zhihao smiled then said: "Bring her here" after a few breathe''s time, Zheng Shuan finally arrived, She spoke: "wha... Are these your wives?!" Seeing Ning''er and Xiao''er for the first time, they are definitely on a different league than her, their bodies, face, and such were all top quality, even a lot of actresses in her world couldn''t match the both of them. then she continued: "they are too beautiful!" Ning''er smiled then said: "I`m taking a liking to her already" Xiao''er blushed as she nodded in confirmation. Zhihao smiled then said: "Miss Zheng, This is Ning''er and this one is Xiao''er they are my wives, there is still one more, but she''s still sleeping. and these two are my babies" Zheng Shuan immediately greeted: "Hello to you all" Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately smiled as they replied: "Good Morning to you" Zhihao smiled then said: "Ah! Miss Zheng, can you teach them about smartphones? I need to do some things for the people of my Empire." Zheng Shuan replied: "But I need explanations!" she''s seriously bewildered with all these new things suddenly popping out of nowhere. Zhihao smiled: "You can ask them anything you like, they aren''t selfish people" Zheng Shuan sighed as she nodded. _______________ Zhihao immediately went outside, as he focused some energy into his vocals: "Good morning to the citizens of my empire! To all the Mortals, you can receive a ration of rice for half a year''s worth, but you need to pay them. It is like loaning them to you now and paying them later, With no additional payments. also, you can loan meat and pay it with silvers when you guys have become stable. We would be giving some farming tools, lumbering tools, and fishing tools, you can get them at the castle below when my wives get there. you can register here now, with your family name and what you want to borrow. that''s all" Zhihao immediately came back to sleep for some more time. The Citizens heard this and they were immediately crying in tears, what kind of ruler would do such a thing for them, Only their ruler that is! One by one, the citizens flooded the castle entrance, the guards made sure that they fall in line to ensure the systematic approach and prevent any troubles from occuring. Chapter 85 A Tiny World for beautiful flowers It''s already high in the afternoon, but still, Zhihao is deep within his sleeping mode. Verushka sighed as she got up and prepared to take a bath. Then Ning''er called out to her:"Veru! come come!, I got something interesting to show you! oh, wait! you take a bath first, I`ll introduce you the things Zhihao brought over from her world." Verushka smiled as she followed Ning''er to the bathroom. They finally reached the bathroom as Ning''er spoke: "Veru! Look at this! This is called Shampoo, this makes your hair smells nice! and this is a soap! it helps you to remove the oil and sweat away from your body, and it also makes your body smell nice!" Verushka got intrigued as she directly went and smelled the Shampoo and soap then she exclaimed: "This definitely smells nice! I`m going to take a bath!" Ning''er smiled then said: "I know right!, well, come to find me afterward, the woman Zhihao brought over knows a lot of things about this phone thingy." Verushka nodded immediately, what piqued her interest the most is the rectangular thing that Zhihao brought from the woman''s world, it contains a lot of moving images. ____________ After a while, Verushka searched for Ning''er and Xiao''er, she walked towards the corridor in the vacant rooms, well she literally got bored searching, so she started using her spiritual energy and scanned the whole fort. but to her surprise, it was the room beside her, they were inside. Verushka entered, then she saw Ning''er and Xiao''er using the rectangular object while focusing deathly at the screen. Verushka spoke: "What are you guys doing?" Ning''er looked at Verushka for a bit then looked back at the screen then she spoke: "Wait! I`m going to finish this first" Xiao''er then screamed: "Oh NO! I died! Noooo" Verushka asked: "eH? how did you die?" Xiao''er immediately replied: "Veru! come here! come!" Zheng Shuan butted in as she asked: "Are you the 3rd wife?" she was astounded, such a cute, elegant, and beautiful child" Xiao''er replied: "Yes, she is, but she''s the oldest one within us three, she''s already over 100 years old" Zheng Shuan stuttered while saying: "o..o... o... Over 100 years old?!" Xiao''er nodded then said: "She''s from the demon race" then Xiao''er immediately played again. Zheng Shuan looked at Verushka awkwardly, how would you address someone as old as a hundred-year-old demon lady, while she looked so much younger than you? then she just looked at Verushka as she greeted: "Hello" Verushka smiled then said: "Hello, I`m Verushka." She paused for a bit then asked: "Sis, what are they doing?" Zheng Shuan sighed, is everyone in this world this friendly? then she replied: "oh that? they are playing Books vs Aliens, it''s a popular game in our world" Verushka nodded like she understood something then pulled out her phone from the interspatial ring. Zheng Shuan got shocked, then she asked: "Is everyone here capable of just puffing out an object out of thin air?" Verushka smiled then replied: "Well, you can ask our husband for one ring, then you can do it too" then she paused for a bit as she said: "Sis, Can you help me play the game like that?" Zheng shuan was shocked by the first statement as she thought ''does that mean, getting married to Zhihao and getting his ring could make me do magical things like that?'' then she shook her head as she replied: "Sure, come and sit here, I`ll start the app for you" Verushka handed the phone as she asked: "up? start the up?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she replied: "No, these things are called Apps, A-P-P, short-term for applications, This one, is the one they are playing, Books vs Aliens" then Zheng Shuan smiled as she clicked the app and handed it back to Verushka. Verushka nodded as she saw the loading screen. Zheng Shuan smiled then said: "You can read this cloud thingy, they are a description of what''s the power a book possess, for example, this one casts flames, while this one freezes the enemies" Zheng Shuan patiently tutored every one of them. ____________ After a while of playing, Verushka smiled as she wiped away the sweat on her forehead, then she spoke: "Well, that''s more intense than a real fight, I died a lot of times there, my base was ruined for more than 50 times" Zheng Shuan smiled then said: "It''s okay, a first timer like you playing this game that good was already awesome" Verushka nodded as she replied: "Okay, You pass, I permit you, if you want to be the fourth wife, well you should get the approval of the other two though" after saying that she immediately played again. Then Ning''er and Xiao''er spoke: "Well, we already agreed earlier too, it''s up to her though" then they both immediately returned to playing. Zheng Shuan thought for a bit as she asked: "Why are you guys sharing the same husband? wouldn''t your pride be hurts if you guys continue like this?" The Three of them smiled. and spoke one by one. Ning''er: "Can pride fill in the hole in my heart, if I left him because of something this minor?" Xiao''er: "I don''t know, I just thought that, If he ever leaves me, I`ll feel empty inside" Verushka: "So long as he doesn''t betray us, and love us equally, why not" After the three of them spoke, they immediately returned to playing the game. Zheng Shuan blushed as she pulled out her own phone from her purse to play some games too. Zheng Shuan smiled a little after hearing their words, as she thought ''So, it''s just me that''s being to reserve about this'' _____________________ After a while, Zhihao woke up and headed to where they were. Seeing this scene, Zhihao smiled as he spoke to himself: "A Tiny World for beautiful flowers" Zhihao didn''t bother them as he went to the dining room to get something to eat. Chapter 86 CALM BEFORE THE STORM Zhihao went to some other empty rooms, then asked the system ''Hey, I`d like to view the stats points of the kingdom'' *Ding!* =Entering Empire Builder window. =Territorial points : 12,952,918 -The development of boundary and kingdoms that''s within your empire. =Empire Points : 23,120,111 -Your Empire''s Current Facilities, Citizens, and Economic growth. =Cultivation Points : 0 -The progress of the people that are directly under you as they improve with the help of host. Wives : 3 1/2 Direct Subordinates / Disciples : 3 Cultivators Army / Servants : 0 Blood Brothers : 0 Zhihao was shocked, as he spoke to the system: "What do you mean by 1/2?" Zhihao waited for a few minutes but to no avail, the system didn''t respond. Zhihao sighed and gave up the thought of his question, then followed up and asked again: ''What can I buy with Territorial, Empire, and Cultivation points?" *Ding!* =For Territory points, you can buy things to help your citizens and weak cultivators, like Cultivation Pills, Recovery pills, Medicinal pills, Mortal strengthening pills, etc. giving them as a reward or bonus would do. *Ding!* =For the Empire points, you can buy the same things with the Territory points, the only difference is that it''s Mid Tiered ones. It will be good to be placed as a reward for Missions. *Ding!* =For Cultivation Points, It''s the same as other two, but now, it''s the High tiered ones. You can also buy cultivation techniques with it. Zhihao nodded in understanding. then said ''What''s the population of my empire?'' *Ding!* =The Empire''s Current status. Empire : Eternal Glory Empire Number of Kingdoms : 291 Number of Regions : 5 Number Of Region Lords : 0 Number of County : 0 Number of Villages : 0 Current Population : 941,588,123 Human Race : 56% Demon Race : 19% Beast Kin : 25% Zhihao then ordered : ''I`d like to spend all the Empire points, and buy all types of Pills, divide it evenly'' *Ding!* =Confirmed, delivering everything to the system''s inventory. Zhihao then ordered again : "Do the same, with the Territorial points. but separate it with the Empire point pills." *Ding!* =Confirming, Host, you have a separate inventory for the Points system. Zhihao was shocked as he thought: '' Eh? Do I have those? since when did you become such a good Samaritan?'' *Ding!* =I can retrieve, and remove it in my system if the host wants. Zhihao coughed then said: "No, No! leave it be" *Ding!* =Confirming all orders. Delivering Items to Host''s system inventory. Immediately, Zhihao went to the Mission guild immediate. The Staffs and Mercenaries greeted immediately when they saw Zhihao "We greet the Lord!" Zhihao smiled at them as he waved his hands, then he spoke: "Open the treasury, and inform all of the staffs to come here, I`ll introduce you guys to the new work I`ll be making you guys do." The Manager immediately replied: "Yes sir!" immediately the manager called out to all the employees in the area around the Mission Guild. After just a few minutes, every staff, even the mercenaries gathered together outside the Mission Guild. then the manager spoke to Zhihao: "Lord, Everyone is here now!" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Today, I`ll change the name of the Mission Guild to Adventurer Guild, From today onward, There will be tiered Missions, Such as Tier 1 Low, Tier 1 mid, and Tier 1 High-grade Missions, The rewards would depend on the Mission''s difficulty." Zhihao then continued: "Tier 2 Missions will be opened once you''ve reached Divine Origin realm or higher, the pills you would receive there too would be more than a thousand missions you completed in Tier 1." Zhihao then immediately summoned two Cultivation Pills. as he spoke: "This is the T1 Cultivation pill, And this is the T2 Cultivation pill." After withdrawing the pills from his Interspatial Ring, The Aroma immediately assaulted the noses of all the cultivators nearby, while Releasing a heavy aura of fully concentrated Spiritual Energy inside. Immediately, All the cultivators in the area exclaimed in shock. -"That''s Tier 1? How come it''s even better than all the things we''ve been swallowing? what kind of divine medicine is this!?" -"Not just that! Look at the Tier 2 Pills! What kind of sacred Pills is the lord giving us as a reward for our mission?" -"This! Is literally a heavenly blessing!" -"This Tier 1 Pill can help us in reaching the Divine Origin Realm!" -"So Tier 1 Missions are to prepare us in taking the Tier 2 Missions!" Everyone was excited as Zhihao continued: "I hate to burst your excitement, but the Tier 2 Missions, would have something to do with our enemies, We''ve got less than 5 years until a war breaks out between them and us, so I only wanted you guys to improve, to help me carry this burden" But Opposite to Zhihao''s expectation, everyone''s excitement wasn''t extinguished, but instead, the flames in their eyes further burned with greater passion. which of them haven''t lost a family? a love one? comrades? sect members? they all suffered mishaps and everything that happened was because of this Invaders. and now a chance to fight them along side the Lord! it''s a blessing in disguise for them! a chance for Retribution. Zhihao noticing their eyes, smiled as he said: "I`ll provide the stepping stones that you guys need, to avenge your misfortunes in the past, let us have our revenge, and fight this war together, let us drive these foul beings away from our world. for retribution!" The crowd''s will was ignited once again. as they shouted together. -"RETRIBUTION!" -"RETRIBUTION!" -"RETRIBUTION!" -"RETRIBUTION!" -"RETRIBUTION!" Chapter 87 IMPARTING TECHNIQUES After the informing the masses about the rewards, Zhihao waited until the masses had calmed down. then he added some information. Zhihao spoke: "Tier 1 low-grade missions consists of gathering foods, finding good spots for the citizens to make a living, and finding some rare materials. Tier 1 mid-grade missions consist of gathering information from different kingdoms, the reward will be based on how important the report would be, Lastly, the Tier 1 high-grade missions would be the most dangerous out of them all, It is to scout for any enemy movements, the better the report, the bigger the reward." Zhihao then continued: "I hope you guys don''t rush things, stay well, until the day we fight together." after speaking up to this, Zhihao immediately walked towards the Royal Castle, below the Floating Fortress. The crowd became silent. A lord? that''s concern towards his followers? that''s definitely a great lord, they immediately bowed, and placed their hand in their heart, and nodded. ________________ Zhihao immediately called out after reaching the castle: "Mo Ying, Ma Dong, Lu Piao Assemble at the royal castle" The First to arrive was Lu Piao, he immediately spoke: "Master!" followed by Butler Ma and Mo Ying afterward, as they both exclaimed: "Master, Ready to accept your order" Zhihao nodded then spoke: "Butler Ma, Come here." After hearing Zhihao words, Butler Ma immediately came forward as he kneeled, then replied: "Master, Ready for your order" Zhihao looked at Butler Ma as he asked the system: ''System, Can you help me choose which of the cultivation method should I give them?'' *Ding!* =Ofcouse, it''s no problem. Analyzing... Analyzing complete. Suggested Cultivation method: Titan Blood Vein Art. Zhihao immediately bought the technique for 1,000 Quest points. then handed it to Butler Ma. Zhihao spoke: "With this cultivation Technique, you should be able to ascend to higher cultivation, be sure to focus on cultivation from now on, I`ll give your duties to somebody else" Zhihao asked the system for the technique''s characteristic, afterward he just copied it and told Butler Ma. Zhihao spoke: "This is a Technique will enhance your Veins, and increasing the flow of spiritual energy through your body, multiplying your cultivation speed and physical prowess, Your cultivation will leap bounds making you cross the dragon''s gate. soaring through the sky." Butler Ma nodded then replied: "Yes Master" he immediately went back with the two. Zhihao nodded as he called out: "Mo Ying, come forward." Mo Ying was ecstatic his master will finally give him something for cultivation again! Mo Ying immediately replied: "Yes Master, I obey" after speaking, Mo Ying immediately walked forward as he kneeled in front of Zhihao. Zhihao asked the System again. *Ding!* =Analyzing... Analyzing complete. Suggested Cultivation method: Vermillion Flame Art. Zhihao nodded as he bought the cultivation technique then handed it to Mo Ying. then he repeated what the system instructed him. Zhihao spoke: "This technique, will enhance your comprehension of Flame techniques and skills. improving your destruction power, evolving your Neutral energy into Flame energy. making you a Destructive force to be reckoned with" After speaking to there. he nodded to Mo Ying. Mo Ying replied immediately full of excitement: "Master, This servant will forever follow you!" Zhihao replied: "You three will be my direct disciples from now on, you guys are not subordinate, but my direct disciples, Understand?" he then paused for a few seconds then continued: "You will be my Wings in the future, My generals that leads thousands of men to conquer and defeat my foes" Mo Ying, Butler Ma, and Lu Piao eyes immediately brightened up, A supreme Ruler''s direct disciple! The three of them nodded as they replied: "Yes Master!" then Mo Ying returned to his original position beside Butler Ma and Lu Piao. Zhihao nodded then called out: "Lu Piao! Forward" Lu Piao immediately replied: "Yes Master! This disciple is prepared to receive your orders." Zhihao nodded then spoke: "Good, now go outside and spread the words, In three days time, I`ll be choosing a few people to be my direct disciples, It all depends on their fortune to be chosen, there is no limit to cultivation, Even mortals can be chosen!" Zhihao paused for a bit as he added: "Also, I`ll start receiving people in my Eternal Royal Guards the same day. only those people above heavenly establishment realm can register." After speaking Zhihao immediately sat back at the throne. Lu Piao''s eyes widened in shock as he spoke: "Ma... Master? Master what about my cultivation technique?" he was nearing his tears now, why was he left behind? Zhihao then immediately remembered as he said: "Ahh, Of course, I just gave you an order first. I`ll choose a cultivation technique now." Zhihao sighed, as he was rushing to hire some new direct disciples and army, he forgot about Lu Piao. Zhihao then spoke to the system ''System, Please'' *Ding!* =Analyzing... Analyzing complete. Suggested Cultivation method: Ethereal Lightning Void Art Zhihao handed the cultivation technique as he said: "This Cultivation technique, will enhance your power and speed, Also, Your comprehension speed for Lightning attribute skills will be multiplied by ten, In later time, you can cast void escaping techniques, and you will be a big help to your senior brothers" after speaking, Zhihao finally sat at the throne. Lu Piao immediately returns to his position besides Mo Ying, and Ma Dong. Zhihao then spoke: "Place those scrolls in the middle of your brows and repeat this chants. I want to be as rich as ball gits! and I want to own a lot of Restaurant like Chef Rosy!" (In English) The Three of them was shocked, as they thought: ''What kind of ancient words were those? such profound dao can be felt when we just heard it! I wonder how it would be if we focus our attention on it.'' the three of them thought inside. The Trio immediately memorized the words and repeated it in their minds, making every effort to focus only at the chant. immediately, after just 10 breathes, all the profound knowledge about the technique flooded into their brain, like they''ve always known about it since birth. The Trio immediately bowed as they said: "Master, Thank you for Imparting these extremely valuable cultivation arts!" then they immediately walked backward and continued speaking: "We will cultivate properly master!" Zhihao then added: "Lu Piao, Don''t forget my orders" Lu Piao immediately smiled as he replied: "Yes Master!" After going out of the castle, Lu Piao spoke to Ma Dong and Mo Ying. :"Senior brothers! can you help me spread Master''s orders?" Ma Dong and Mo Ying looked at each other as they spoke: "When did we ask for help when Master ordered us? Master''s words are absolute, Master ordered you, so it''s you, don''t include us in it." Lu Piao sighed as he scratched his head then replied: "Yes senior brother, I understand." Ma Dong and Mo Ying nodded at Lu Piao as they went their way to cultivate their new technique. Lu Piao grunted: "Damn it, I want to cultivate too, I should immediately spread the words!" Chapter 88 MASSIVE NEWS Lu Piao finally spread the words of his matter throughout the entire empire. Entering the ears of the masses, they immediately went curious, even mortal can participate? this is a blessing coming from heavens for all the Citizens of the Empire. Even all the newly established Sects heard this news, they wanted to join too. Somewhere within the Sacred ground of the Human race, a silhouette was pondering as she called someone. "Ying Chen, If I ever get accepted, I`ll pass the position of the sect''s head to you, I can''t let this opportunity pass, even for a second" It was a female, speaking to her attendant. Ying Chen replied: "But Master! What about the sect?!" she replied with tears immediately flowing in her eyes as she said towards the silhouette. The silhouette moved: "I can provide more resources to the sect, even if I`m not with the sect, I`ll provide better protection when I`m accepted" The voice spoke, as determination flashed her eyes. then she continued: "This is an order" Ying Chen sniffed as she replied: "Yes Master." __________________ Somewhere in a Kingdom. a family gathered when a Lady spoke. "Father! my chance has finally arrived!" It was a cute lady, she''s wearing a combat robe, as she cheerfully said. The father spoke: "I just hope that you get chosen, Even the army is good, Daughter, I hope for your future to go as you wish" The cute lady replied: "Father, I`ll do my best!" The whole family nodded as they sighed and cheered her on. __________________ Somewhere within the Royal Castle. a Lady with ears twitching woke up immediately after she heard the news. "Eh? Is that guy recruiting direct disciples? oh, what would it be like, I should go watch it!" the lady smiled as she finds it interesting. _______________ The News immediately spread far and wide, the citizens, kings, and sects sending their son, daughters, greatest genius, etc. Every citizens and cultivator that was doing something immediately stopped, as they headed out back to the empire, to notify their family, or even try to enter themselves. It became the most anticipated event in the whole Empire. __________________ Zhihao immediately distributed almost all the Pills he had to the Adventurer''s guild. then he proceeded to a Medical Facility and handed the rest of the medicinal pills to them. Zhihao immediately called when he reached under the Floating Fortress. Zhihao spoke: "Ning''er, Can you get me here? I need to return" Zhihao waited for a few minutes, there is no reaction at all. then he tried again: "Ning''er?" seemingly failing the sound transmission, Zhihao tried another attempt. "Xiao''er, can you get me here? Ning''er is not responding" Zhihao waited for a few minutes, Xiao''er didn''t reply too. Zhihao pondered as he thought ''Did something happen to them?'' then he tried another time: "Honey, What happened up there? did something slip inside?" waiting for another few minutes, but to no avail, there was no response!. Then Zhihao called Butler Ma: "Butler Ma! come and pick me up, I need to go up to the Floating Fortress" Immediately, Butler Ma replied to his sound transmission: "Yes Master, I`ll be there in a moment" after speaking, Ma Dong immediately descended down from the Floating Fortress. Zhihao asked: "Did something happen inside the Fortress?" Butler Ma replied: "Nothing of that sort master, nothing suspicious happened" then Immediately, Butler Ma held Zhihao''s two shoulders as he flew in the sky. Zhihao nodded and immediately thought ''what could''ve happened to those three'' ____________________ After a few breathes of time. Zhihao landed as he ordered Butler Ma: "You can go return first, I`ll search for my wives" Butler Ma replied: "Yes Master" immediately Butler Ma went away to continue his cultivation. Zhihao walked inside the Fortress, and immediately went towards each of the rooms. After a few minutes of time. Zhihao finally found them. Zhihao exclaimed: "What are you guys doing? nobody answered to me" yet again nobody answered. Zheng Shuan coughed as she said: "Ah Zhihao, they''ve been busy with playing, I can''t even talk to them now" Zhihao replied: "Playing? what are they playing?" Zheng Shuan answered: "ah, This, Verushka is playing Plant Ninja, while Ning''er is playing Fruit puzzle, and Xiao''er is playing Bubble Buster" Zhihao sighed then nodded: "Well, at least they are enjoying their new found items." then he looked at Zheng Shuan as he smiled: "Thanks for teaching them how to use the phone" Zheng Shuan seeing Zhihao''s smile blushed as she nodded and responded: "It''s nothing, I had nothing to do anyway, It`ll be boring if I couldn''t talk to anyone too." Zhihao then sighed again, as he said: "I`ll send you back in a month''s time, by that time, it would''ve already been four days on earth." Zheng Shuan replied: "Eh? four days? what do you mean?" Zhihao replied: "Well, a month''s time here, is four days time on Earth, Which means if you spend 30 years here, it would only be four years on earth." Zheng Shuan was surprised as she spoke: "That slow?" Zhihao nodded his head and said: "Yes" after finishing his words, He immediately came close to his three wives. but to his surprise, they immediately flew and sat on the pillar''s design, as they continued playing the game. Zhihao replied: "What are you guys doing? why are you avoiding me?" Ning''er replied first as she looked intensely at the phone: "Wait, Husband, I`ll finish this soon enough!" then she immediately played again. Zhihao sighed as he said: "You guys got addicted to those phones immediately. But I think it''s almost time for its battery to run out." then Zheng Shuan exclaimed: "They can fly?!" her eyes are wide open. Zhihao smiled then said: "I`ll tell you something while they are busy." He paused for a bit then continued: "In Earth, you call their ability as superpowers, but in this world, we call it Cultivation" Zheng Shuan was shocked then said: "Cultivations? The ones in those Movies? where Qi or something helps people become stronger?" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Yes, something like that" Zheng Shuan sat on the ground as she held her face with her two cute jade-like hands. then she spoke: "What kind of situation did I come into? Superpowers!?" Chapter 89 Celestial General Four days had passed rather quickly, and every night made Zhihao extremely exhausted. The time for recruitment has arrived! Thousands and thousands of people had come in front of the Royal Castle, awaiting the Lord to arrive. After a few moments, Zhihao finally arrived, with his three wives, and Zheng Shuan behind him. Zhihao immediate announced: "There is no limit to the number of people I`ll be taking as my direct disciples, as long as you have the talent I deemed fit, I will choose you." pausing for a bit, he looked at the Crowd and continued: "If you weren''t chosen, There is still the Eternal Royal Army, If you weren''t chosen as my direct disciple, you`d still have a chance in joining my personal army, although this time, It''s only for those people in Heavenly Establishment realm and above" Then Zhihao asked the system ''Can you help me pick some people with great abilities and future in cultivation?'' *Ding!* =Ofcourse, It will be easy to do so. Zhihao then replied: ''Thanks, I don''t really know how to pick one myself, I`ll be relying on you then.'' *Ding!* =No problem host. Zhihao then spoke to the crowds: "I`ll be starting now, all of you form a line, no matter how many, I just need you guys to be well organized." After hearing Zhihao''s words, All the citizens formed a line immediately. One by one they immediately organized themselves. *Ding!* =Host, There is one 50 meters ahead of you, The Mortal guy that looks to be around the age of 24. Zhihao immediately scanned the people in front of him as he walked forward. *Ding!* =On your left. Stopping immediately, Zhihao looked at his left as he saw the man with a woman holding his arm. Zhihao spoke: "What''s your name?" The Man immediately became excited as he replied: "Lord!, My name is Ye Rong" then he bowed immediately, even the woman who was holding his arms, immediately let go as she bowed. Zhihao nodded then spoke: "You go to the front, near the castle, I`ll take you in as a direct disciple, But if you don''t want it, it''s also okay to stay behind here" Ye Rong Immediately replied: "Lord! It would be my genuine pleasure to be under your direct totelage." then Ye Rong looked at the woman beside him as he said: "Wait for me, I`ll come back to you later. Zhihao seeing this scene just smiled, he couldn''t let just anyone go to the spot, as the place might immediately become full without him finishing his recruitment. Zhihao walked forward searching for more. Then a woman behind spoke: "Lord! Am I not good enough? I`m already a Divine Spirit Realm cultivator!" she was wondering how a mortal became his direct Disciple but she as a Divine Spirit Realm cultivator was actually left behind. Zhihao looked towards the woman that spoke and replied: "Why?" Then Zhihao asked the system: ''Ah right, System, Why wasn''t she picked?'' *Ding!* =She has cultivated the wrong cultivation since the start, Giving her power that''s not fit for her Physique. her Physique is Celestial Empress Flame Physique. Her cultivation is best towards flame attributed cultivation, but she''s currently studying a Yin based cultivation which damaged her progress towards cultivation. The System paused for a while then continued. *Ding!* =If she can study something that suits her physique, she can soar through the heavens, Host can make the woman, your Heavenly General. You can take in four of them. She can be the Crimson Blood Phoenix. Hearing the system, Zhihao smiled, a great physique that was actually wasted? Zhihao then spoke: "Would you follow me? but i`ll need you to dissolve your cultivation progress for that" The Woman was shocked as she trembled, the cultivation she practiced and honed days and nights? needs to be dissolved? The Woman replied after some thoughts: "Lord, I`m sorry, I can''t" Then the Zhihao spoke: "Think about it carefully. I can help you soar through the heavens, being blocked by no enemies. Only heeding to my orders" Zhihao couldn''t give up such a good subordinate, that''s a big loss. The Woman was shocked, if she continued on her path, maybe she''ll be stuck at the Divine Spirit Realm, but the lord just said that she could soar through the heavens, meaning, she''ll improve leaps and bounds!. this made her think twice. after a few seconds of thinking, she had finally come to conclusion. Ying Mai spoke: "Lord, My name is Ying Mai, Please I Beseech you to take me in." Zhihao spoke after she finished speaking: "Oh, I can''t take you as my direct disciple, I`ll be needing you to be one of my four Celestial Generals." Ying Mai''s eyes opened wide. what''s the meaning of this? he''s taking many Direct Disciples, but only four celestial generals? this is like going to buy a fish but catching a whale instead!. Zhihao then spoke: "You will be my Celestial General, Crimson Blood Phoenix, Go on to the stage. and Dissolve your cultivation, wait for my orders afterwards." Zhihao then walked forward to continue his search. Ying Mai''s eyes brightened as she replied: "Yes Master!, This subordinate obeys!" she immediately dissolved all her cultivation as she walked towards the Royal castle. The People went into frenzy, Their lord is also recruiting some other position other than his Direct Disciples and Royal Army? and what''s more, it sounded better than the latter two! Zhihao then spoke to the crowds of people: "A Celestial General is a being who rules all over the world, proving their might and prowess to the masses, Reigning supreme through their own strength. They will be the strongest People that will protect my domain, and my family in the future." The Crowd immediately became frenzied! A Celestial General! Only under the Lord himself! What a great Honor to receive! Chapter 90 A Secret between us Zhihao continued his search for more direct disciples with the help of the system of course. Zhihao then continued walking forward, selecting them one by one after the system deemed them fit. then the System notified. *Ding!* =Host, After scanning the whole population, I`ve only found one last person. it''s a woman 129 meters to your right. Zhihao nodded then replied: ''Got it'', Zhihao immediately went towards the direction the system pointed. then he asked the system: ''Is there any more people that fit to be my celestial general?'' *Ding!* =None. Zhihao sighed then continued forward. after a few seconds, he found a familiar silhouette. Zhihao smiled as he pointed at the silhouette then said: "What''s your name?" Immediately, The woman became excited as she replied: "Lord, This humble one''s name is Lin Yanran!" after speaking, she immediately bowed. Zhihao smiled then said: "Join the rest of your brothers." After speaking, Zhihao walked slowly towards the Royal Castle again. Lin Yanran immediately replied: "Yes Lord!" she immediately run towards the Royal Castle, After Arriving at the Royal Castle, Zhihao immediately spoke: "The 17 of you, will be my newly appointed Direct Disciples, and as such, The three of them will be your senior brothers." The 17 newly found Direct Disciples consists of 11 males and 6 females, together with Mo Ying, Ma Dong, and Lu Piao, there''s 20 of them. After Speaking, Mo Ying, Ma Dong, and Lu Piao immediately descended behind Zhihao as they said: "Master, We have arrived" after bowing, they immediately stood behind Zhihao. Zhihao nodded as he said: "I will hand you a cultivation technique" pausing for a bit, Zhihao asked the system ''What should I hand them?'' *Ding!* =Host, I`m Suggesting a Group cultivation art. processing... Heavenly Cloud Plight''s technique. After mastering this, The user would gain immeasurable talents after the Grandmaster level, giving the user a neutral spiritual energy. making the cultivator able to cultivate any other forms of arts much faster than any other normal cultivators by leaps. Zhihao nodded as he bought the cultivation art. then he spoke to the other 17: "I`ll be handing you guys, a cultivation technique of neutral level. after attaining a Grandmaster Level in this Cultivation, you guys can choose which form of art you would be using" Immediately, Zhihao withdrew from his inventory the Cultivation technique, then he followed: "This is called Heavenly Cloud Plight''s Art, Practice it well, As I`ll be relying on you guys to protect this world in the future." All of the seventeen shouted in unison: "Yes Master!" Zhihao immediately spoke: "You guys go to the Royal Castle," He paused for a bit then said: "Ning''er, send them in the back of the Floating Fortress, Mo Ying, Ma Dong, and Lu Piao, Help the mortals get there, and observe their cultivation progress for now." Ning''er and the Trio nodded then said: "Yes Master/Husband" Then Zhihao spoke: "Ah! you guys still remember the chant I told you guys?" Mo Ying replied: "Yes Master, I''ve etched it into my heart" Mo Ying spoke with Dignity. then Butler ma Continued: "So did I Master" Zhihao nodded then looked at Lu Piao. Lu Piao just coughed as he spoke shamefully: "Master, I`m sorry I forgot" Zhihao sighed then nodded at them to leave. Then he looked at Ying Mai as he said: "Ying Mai" Ying Mai immediately went in front of Zhihao as she said: "Master, I`m ready for your orders" Zhihao asked the system: ''System, what to give her? any cultivation I should give her?" *Ding!* =Host, This is a warning. You only have enough points to buy One mid-tier Cultivation technique, You can''t afford any more High Cultivation arts to be purchased. Zhihao sighed then spoke: "Can we remove the excess from other points?" *Ding!* =The Points will be paid by 1,000 folds. Zhihao was shocked as he thought ''1,000 folds?'' then he just sighed as he answered the system ''Yes proceed'' *Ding!* =Analyzing the Ying Mai for the best cultivation art to practice... Loading... Loading... *Ding!* =Host can Purchase two different art, The first one is an offensive art, while the other one is a defensive art. -Helios Sacred Flame Art -Purgatory Matrix Art Zhihao replied: ''I`ll buy the offensive art''. Immediately, The cultivation art immediately went to his inventory. Helios Sacred Flame Art. Zhihao then spoke: "This is the Helios Sacred Flame Art, It can help your enlightenment and fire arts to improve much faster than anything else, it will also help you receive great Yang Energy within your veins, combining your Physique, and Yin energy together." Ying Mai nodded as she replied: "Yes Master, This one has received your generosity." Zhihao nodded then said: "Remember this chant well, then place that scroll in the middle of your forehead as you focus your soul in this words "Place those scrolls in the middle of your brows and repeat this chants. I want to be as rich as ball gits! and I want to own a lot of Restaurant like Chef Rosy! Hurray for Master", you can go to the Royal Castle now, I`ll give you guys time to progress first." He paused for a bit then spoke to Verushka and Xiao''er: "Can you guys take her over there?" Xiao''er nodded and said: "Yes husband" Verushka breathed out a sigh as she said: "I can finally play again!, ahh, it''s too tiring to stand here all day" she paused for a bit then looked at Ying Mai, then spoke: "You, Come with us now" Ying Mai Immediately nodded as she replied: "Yes Master, Yes Mistress!" Immediately standing up as she proceeded followed behind Verushka. Zheng Shuan was shocked then she spoke: "Eh? Zhihao, Those words really help?" Zhihao then sweated a lot, yeah he forgot something. There''s an earthling here! and a superstar at that! She definitely knows English! Zhihao scratched his head as he slowly looked at Zheng Shuan then spoke: "Can you, Keep it a secret between us? hehe.. hehehe... hehehe.." Zheng Shuan sighed as she replied: "Okay, It''s not like it matter now anyway." Zhihao breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke: "Thank you" then Zheng Shuan giggled as she spoke: "Do your wives know about this?" Immediately Zhihao''s back sweated a lot as he replied: "No?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she spoke to herself: "So it''s a secret between us?" her heart was filled by something so simple yet felt incredible by it. Chapter 91 Eternal Royal Guard Immediately Zhihao looked forward to changing the topic between him and Zheng Shuan, then he proceeded with his Plan. Zhihao looked in the front as he spoke: "To all the Citizens, and Cultivators below Heavenly Establishment realm, you can return back now. Tomorrow will be a day of feast, I will celebrate what happened today, and share it with the whole Empire! the Banquet for having picked the people today. We shall celebrate tomorrow!" The Citizens that felt like they came for nothing were immediately cheered, they all simultaneously shouted: "Long live the Ruler of our Empire! Long live the Lord!" Zhihao nodded, then within a few breathes time, he waved his hands to disperse the people. Zhihao then looked at the remaining Heavenly Establishment Realm cultivators and above in front of him. The gaze that Zhihao threw at them is definitely one of those a dignified ruler will give. Seeing this, they couldn''t resist and bowed their heads immediately. Little did they know what is really happening. Zhihao thought for a bit then thought inside his head: ''System, Can you help me pick faster?'' *Ding!* =What''s your condition to be met? Zhihao then pondered for a bit as he replied: ''Something like Loyalty?" *Ding!* =Specific... Zhihao sighed then continued: ''Loyal to the cause, The Will to persevere, and is Far from corrupt'' *Ding!* =Anything else? Zhihao then thought for a while then said in a straightforward manner: ''Loyal, Persevering through challenges and trial, Even with average talent so long as they want to help the Empire, Great mental fortitude, and Good nature'' *Ding!* =Would you like to fasten the procedure? recommending badge creation. Zhihao then replied: ''Badge creation?'' *Ding!* =Creating a badge and gifting it to your army. The benefits would be increasing their cultivation speed by two folds, Costs 5 Empire points each. Zhihao smiled as the bonus would definitely be beneficial to his army, He nodded immediately and said: ''Let''s create a badge'' *Ding!* =Describe how your design would be made. Zhihao pondered for a bit as he spoke: ''Make it with five corners. A dragon in the Middle Soaring through the heavens, and Swords protecting the Earth'' *Ding!* =Processing the request... Loading... Creation complete, Proceed? Zhihao nodded then said: ''Proceed'' *Ding!* =Make them lift their hands and the worthy ones will receive it Immediately. Zhihao nodded then he shouted: "All of you, I need to inform you of something, This test will be very easy, As it will only measure your qualities, abilities, your nature, and also your loyalty towards the Empire!" Every cultivator immediately nodded as they were already resolute from the beginning. Zhihao then spoke: "Lift your hand and open it, like catching something from the heavens. and see what you want to do when you had gained immeasurable power!" Every single one of the cultivators immediately nodded as they visualize themselves. then a notification popped up in Zhihao''s head. *Ding!* =Proceed? Zhihao smiled as he replied: ''Proceed!'' Immediately a bright light descended one by one to the palms of the cultivators, receiving the badge, they immediately felt the overflowing spiritual energy in their palm. Zhihao though was perplexed, then he asked the system: ''Why are there so many?'' *Ding!* =The host''s Condition was met by all of them, All 2,851,488 Cultivators possess the quality you are looking for. Zhihao was shocked then asked: ''How many Empire points do I have left?'' *Ding!* = you have -9,591,248 Empire points as a credit. Zhihao sighed as he shook his head, he forgot something. That he bought almost all the points with Pills. *Ding!* =As a gift for the continued usage of the Empire Store, The Empire Store will gift you with ''Blood Cultivation Stone Array'' Placing it in the middle of a ground will produce an Doubled effect of cultivation for 3 years time whoever is within the 100x100 Km2 distance. Zhihao smiled as he received another great gift! Zhihao nodded as he looked at the Cultivators then said: "Those badges, Will help your Cultivation grow tw...." but before Zhihao could finish a Notification immediately rang inside his head. *Ding!* =Equipping the Badge will make have another effect. and that is to be equipped by a uniform, although the only thing you can decide is color. it''s still their choice in designs. Zhihao laughed in a low tone as he replied: ''How about black and white?'' "Authors note, so you guys could imagine the uniform better it looks somewhat like this. https://picclick.com/K-Return-of-Kings-Neko-Military-Uniform-Cosplay-292344182367.html#&gid=1&pid=1 " *Ding!* =Confirmed you can instruct them to wear it now. Zhihao then continued his words: "Those badges, will help your cultivation speed by two folds, and also equipping them beside your chest will grant you a new uniform, you guys will be immediately remembered and be called the Eternal Royal Army!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they immediately wore the Badge in their chest, Immediately their apparels were changed to a Uniform. they were shocked and happy at the same time, In everyone''s eyes, it''s their first time seeing something like this, and also the first time they saw robes that looked like this! Zhihao then spoke loudly again: "Your first mission, is to build a base, Behind the royal castle!, making something that looks like a sect! But it will be your home from now on!" Pausing for a bit as he thought that they might miss their family, and thought about how he worked as a laborer before, then continued: "You`ll be given a day off of the training, once in seven days! you can go meet your family, friends and such! Dismissed!" The newly established Eternal Royal Guards immediately bowed as they replied: "Yes Master!" afterward, they immediately went to the back of the Royal Castle to plan in making their base. Chapter 92 STRANGE CREATURES Zhiao finally finished his recruitment, as he turned to look at the silhouettes that are scattering through different directions. A feminine voice spoke behind him. "Zhihao, can you teach me how to cultivate?" It is Zheng Shuan, she would like to try and float through the clouds with her own body. Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Sure, It''s actually very simple" after speaking like that, he asked the System: ''How should I teach her how to cultivate?'' *Ding!* =Give her a Cultivation stone, and make her feel it. Zhihao then continued his question: ''Then?'' *Ding!* =Tell her to guide the warm energy, imagining and focusing on this warm energy to pass through her whole body, while gathering the Energy into her core, the heart. Zhihao nodded then spoke to Zheng Shuan: "Here, You can practice with this one, This is called a Mid-level stone, It helps cultivators gather spiritual energy so that they can cultivate" Zheng Shuan nodded then asked: "What do I do with this stone?" she paused for a bit as she spoke: "This stone is warm" Zhihao smiled then replied: "Focus your attention on the warm feeling in your hand, that''s coming from the stone, and imagine it passing through your hands into your elbow, and further inside your body." Zheng Shuan nodded as she followed the instruction Zhihao gave her, immediately, she felt the warm feeling flowing through her arms and entered her whole body, she felt the warm energy as if something is filling her whole body. Zheng Shuan opened her eyes then looked at Zhihao as she said: "I felt it inside my whole body!" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "That''s how you cultivate" pausing for a bit he continued: "You should continue it, You`ll feel less stressed while you work on Earth" Zheng Shuan smiled and nodded at Zhihao''s words but she felt saddened by the word Earth, she already missed it, but she doesn''t want to leave this planet too. she felt something different while staying here, what she missed before, Freedom! For the first time in a while, when she goes out, there are no people looking at her, reporters asking questions, and schedules needed to be fulfilled. Zheng Shuan smiled as she''s kept having this doubt of going back to Earth. Zhihao was about to speak, then a Messanger from the Adventurer''s guild came. "Lord!, Lord! I bring news!" The messenger was a panting for air as he approached Zhihao. Zhihao nodded then spoke: "Calm yourself first and report." "Yes Lord," After just a few seconds he finally caught his breath then reported: "Lord, A group of people infiltrated near the base of the enemies to get some valuable information!, and they came back with one, we couldn''t identify the importance of this mission as such we want to seek his lord''s opinion." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Lead the way" after speaking, he called someone: "Mo Ying, Ma Dong! to Me!" Immediately, Ma Dong and Mo Ying came to Zhihao and replid: "Lord!" Zhihao nodded then spoke: "Mo Ying, bring Zheng Shuan to the Floating fortress, Ma Dong, Come with me" then Zhihao looked at Zheng Shuan as he smiled then said: "You should continue cultivating in the Floating Fortress, you can ask my wives for some guidance" Zheng Shuan smiled then replied: "Okay" Immediately Mo Ying and Ma Dong nodded as they replied: "Yes Lord" Mo Ying carried Zheng Shuan to the Floating fortress while Ma Dong walked behind Zhihao. Zhihao looked at the Messenger as he spoke: "Let''s go" The Messenger replied: "Yes Lord" ___________ After a few minutes of walk, They finally arrived at the Adventurer''s guild, What immediately caught Zhihao''s eyes was a box looking like thing covered in clothes. After seeing Zhihao, The citizens immediately greeted: "Lord!" as they bowed their head Zhihao nodded then waved his hand as he asked: "Is this the one you mentioned?" The Messenger immediately replied: "Yes Mylord. This group of people brought it here" Zhihao nodded then looked at the group as he continued: "Remove the cloth." Immediately, The group removed the clothes and what Zhihao saw was something inside as he asked: "This is?" The leader of the group immediately replied: "My lord, We''ve found this strange things near the enemies bases!, they looked like evolved animals, and there are also stronger ones than this things, Some even has a human appearance, but different in terms of looks, they have sharp fingers, and red eyes, while their whole body is almost charcoal black" Zhihao nodded as pondered for a bit, then he asked the System: ''What are these things?'' *Ding!* =Your world is currently evolving to match the massive energies that the Lokratiz Soaran has made, and those things that they mentioned are Voidlings, they will only last for a few days, they are neutral things, They will make the animals evolved further, creating Demon beasts such as Orcs, Trolls, Ogres and Even dragons. Zhihao was shocked, Dragons? he then replied to the system: ''Thank you'' *Ding!* =No problem, You can just call this the natural process of evolution, every world has it, and if you stop this, your world will halt it''s progress until something like a much more powerful energy comes and continues this process. Zhihao nodded then spoke to the: "Ignore those black things for now, but these ones, will further evolve, they are called Demon beasts, but we can just call them monsters for now. They are animals that''s going through their evolutions, we will be facing more things such as this in the future. Everyone nodded when they heard Zhihao spoke, then someone spoke. "My lord, what should we do with them now?" Zhihao replied: "Focus all your attention within the Empire for now, the evolution would take less than a month''s time" after speaking, Zhihao waved his hands as he walked back towards the Royal Castle then he spoke: "Reward them with an additional 80%, The information they brought is very good" The Manager of the adventurer''s guild smiled as he replied: "Yes Lord!" Everyone nodded as they scattered and goes back to whatever they were doing. The group that came back with the Information was ecstatic such great rewards! Zhihao spoke in a low tone: "Demon Beast? Something like those within the Animes back in Earth? I think I need to study them too" he looked at Ma Dong as he asked: "What do you think?" Ma Dong was bewildered of what Zhihao just said, Anime? Earth? what are those, then after a few seconds, Ma Dong replied: "I think this development needs a deep research My Lord" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay, When the one month period is over, I`ll head back to Earth and Research the anime world" Ma Dong nodded even without understanding his Master''s words, who is his master? The supreme ruler of their race! Chapter 93 Creating Pills After returning to the Royal Castle, Zhihao asked Ma Dong to lift him up to the Floating Fortress. He wanted to see the Disciples and Ying Mai''s progress. Zhihao immediately went towards Ying Mai''s Location, almost close to his Direct disciples. After a few seconds, Zhihao finally saw Ying Mai concentrating on her cultivation art. Zhihao asked the system: ''How can I help her grow?'' *Ding!* =Imparting Fire Type skills, Sparring partner, and Dual Cultivation. The dual cultivation I`m talking about is rather different from the time with your wives, and It''s a once in a lifetime thing, both you and she would evolve after doing that, it''s the fastest method, while the more average ones are to give her Cultivation Pills. Zhihao nodded then asked the System: "I haven''t used the Alchemy System for a long, long time now, any recommendation?, I`ll go back to the treasury first, and see if there''s anything I can concoct to help." *Ding!* =Finally, Some great idea! you kept wasting your points buying pills, you could''ve just set a mission for gathering herds, it would be better for them, Easier too. Zhihao was shocked: "I could have done that right?!" *Ding!* =Yes, From the start. Zhihao scratched his head awkwardly as he coughed and went straight to the treasury. __________ Zhihao finally reached the treasury and looked around, a lot of precious herbs, roots, and such can be seen. Zhihao asked the system: ''can we use them?'' *Ding!* =The Current level of alchemist within your world is too low and thus couldn''t process these things, the highest alchemist level that can be found here are only Level 8 Alchemist, and the treasures here can produce a maximum of Level 5 Cultivation Pills. Zhihao smiled then nodded: "Okay, Let''s do this then!" *Ding!* =Gather all the materials that I`ll tell you. There get that... In your right, Yes that.. Zhihao finally got everything that can be used for Pill forging, then he spoke in his mind: ''Let''s start?'' *Ding!* =Summoning cauldrons. Immediately, Cauldron appeared one after the another. *Ding!* =Since you can''t materialize your Spiritual Energy, I`ll just consume your energy for now. Also, place the Materials needed one by one, I`ll tell you which ones. Zhihao followed suit and immediately placed the Materials in each cauldron one after the other. After that, a Notification popped up. *Ding!* =Commensing Pill forging!... Processing. All the 87 Cauldrons bursts forth with light energy, Zhihao immediately sweated as he felt, that he''s becoming more exhausted just by looking at the process, His stamina is being drained! After a few Minutes, The cauldrons'' Flames were getting extinguished in a continues Manner. *Ding!* =Pill Forging completed, All the Pills had been placed in the host''s inventory. Rest well, host. Zhihao was so exhausted that he slept on the floor! Zhihao lost his consciousness when the pills. were near its completion, resulting in him getting completely depleted. After a few breathes time, a Maid noticed an unconscious man and immediately informed Ma Dong. Ma Dong immediately helped his master and brought him to the chamber. _____________________ Three days later, Zhihao woke up in his bed and scanned his surroundings. It is already morning, and he saw his wives together with him in the bed. immediately after he woke up. a voice was heard. "You`re finally awake! you made me worried!" It''s Ning''er''s voice as she called out and hugged Zhihao immediately. after that, Xiao''er and Verushka woke up. Xiao''er immediately hugged Zhihao too as she wept and cried. who wouldn''t, when finding your husband unconscious and was sent to his bedchamber, they thought Zhihao would sleep forever. Verushka just sighed then gave a hmmp sound and looked at the other direction, clearly avoiding others seeing her tears. Zhihao scratched his head then said: "How long was I unconscious for?" Ning''er replied: "For about three days" Zhihao sighed and then asked the System: ''Which ones should I give the three of them?'' *Ding!* =Verifying... Processing... Loading complete. Verushka = Void Purgatory Pill can help the cultivator Master the skills of darkness, and in further cultivation can help the user to gain the Dark Lightning Nether Physique. Ning''er = Ice Lotus Deity Pill improving the physique of the User and gains Heavenly Frozen Jade Physique. Xiao''er = Heavenly Hale Jade Pill improving the comprehension of the user in Wind elements, after fully consuming this pill, The pill can help the user to gain the Celestial Wind Physique. Zhihao nodded then replied: ''Please put a name on the pills so I can get which are the ones you are saying?'' *Ding!* =Just appraise. Zhihao sighed then scanned each of the Pills. Noticing Zhihao came to a daze, Ning''er interrupted: "Husband, why did you became daze? are you losing consciousness again?" asked Ning''er worriedly. Zhihao found the pills then he smiled and replied: "Actually, I lost consciousness due to Pill forging, I got you guys three valuable treasures." Pausing for a bit, Zhihao pulled the Pills then continued: "here take them each and cultivate properly" immediately after Zhihao withdrew the pills, the Aura assaulted them, a mixed aura of Wind, Ice, and Darkness can be sensed. The Trio immediately felt the intensity of the elements, Verushka then spoke: "How''d you make them? These things are too valuable, I`ve already seen every pill made in this world, but this is the greatest one! even if you multiply the qualities of the best pills there is by a hundred folds, It won''t be enough for any of these pills!" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "For you three, Everything" The Trio blushed, While Verushka just pouted and looked at the other direction, Ning''er grabbed Zhihao as she felt the joy of having a husband. but then there is Xiao''er, that just looked down while blushing. Zhihao stood up as he spoke: "Now then you guys should cultivate, we only have 5 years of peace left, we should do our best to get stronger" Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er nodded as they stood up and fixed themselves, preparing to take a bath and cultivate afterward. Zhihao smiled at them as he spoke: "I`ll go visit my direct disciples now, and also my celestial general." Verushka just waved her hands and said: "Go on, you just prepare everything for the war to come" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "With everything I have, I`ll never let anyone destroy the things important to me, and especially I won''t let anyone harm you guys" after speaking, Zhihao walked out, Leaving the three of them blushing as they prepared to enter the bath. Chapter 94 Zhihaos Guidance Zhihao immediately went to the practicing yard to check upon his new Disciples and Celestial General. but when he was about to reach to Ying Mai he heard a sound. Zzzzzsssstt Zzzzzssst Zhihao immediately went forward to look for Ying Mai, thus witnessing a great view. Ying Mai is releasing her aura as flames surge as it continuously comes out of her body, within a distance of 5 meters around Ying Mai, everything that is living had turned to ashes, The flowers and grasses had died. Zhihao sighed then called out: "Ying Mai" Ying Mai immediately stopped her focus as she stood up and greeted: "Master!" she was excited, it''s her first time cultivating in such a speed that even she became bewildered by it, She''s already caught and surpassed her previous cultivation! She''s a genuine Divine Might''s Realm cultivator in just four days. Zhihao nodded as he looked at Ying Mai. Ying Mai only bowed waiting for Zhihao''s words. Zhihao then asked the system: ''Can I give my Emperor''s set to Ying Mai? will it be possible to change its appearance?'' *Ding!* =The set will immediately change to the appearance of the user once they touched it. Zhihao nodded then replied: ''I guess I`ll equip that set for now'' *Ding!* =Host, If you wouldn''t mind, you can borrow the final form of my set, The Supreme Martial God Set.'' it costs not points. but Qualification. If you equip the set now, It will only give you 40% of its original strength, as only gods and the one that I permit it to use it can equip it. Zhihao was shocked, There was a set like that? then he asked the system: ''Why didn''t you give it to me earlier?'' *Ding!* =It was meant to be a congratulatory set when you reached the Demi-god realm, by that time, you`ll be able to use 70% of its original value. Zhihao then replied: ''Then why are you giving it to me now?'' *Ding!* =I have a bad premonition. that something might happen. Zhihao was shocked, then nodded as he replied: ''Okay, I`ll get that now'' *Ding!* =The Set has been sent to your inventory, please equip it. Zhihao nodded and immediately equipped the Supreme Martial God set, Immediately, a supreme aura assaulted Ying Mai, and made her kneel as her head was pressed to the ground. Everything seemed weak, and can only feel inferior towards Zhihao, Like a God standing among mortals. and would feel like every word he will be speaking is the divine will of the heavens itself. Ying Mai was shocked and then thought: ''This is the power of our supreme ruler?'' Zhihao was shocked as he tried to suppress the aura coming from the set. Zhihao then withdrew his Flame Emperor set and handed it to Ying Mai as he spoke: "This is the Flame Emperor''s set, It`ll help empower your flame arts a lot of times, treasure it." Ying Mai was shocked as she looked at the set, then she spoke: "Master, That robe is for a male?" Zhihao smiled then said: "Come and take it" Ying Mai didn''t hesitate anymore as she received the equipment, then just after she touched it, a bright light shone within the set, and immediately, visible to the naked eyes, The Flame Emperor set is transforming. Zhihao smiled as he laughed and said: "Then, I guess that Flame Emperor set would be named Flame Empress Set, Or you can just name it yourself." Ying Mai was shocked, name it myself? then she shook her head as she replied: "Master, The name suit itself" Zhihao nodded then replied: "You can use it now" Ying Mai nodded as she went and undressed in front of Zhihao. Zhihao was shocked then spoke: "Ah, don''t undress here, just dress inside the castle!" Ying Mai smiled, she''s already the Celestial General of Zhihao, everything she has is Zhihao''s, then she thought for a while then realized something: "Yes Master, I guess this old woman''s body would just ruin your eyes" immediately dressing. Zhihao was shocked by the idea she thought of as he replied: "No, no, It won''t, But this is a public place, and just a few meters away, the Direct Disciples can see you" Ying Mai then came to a sudden realization and nodded: "Yes Master, so I guess I should only do it when there is the two of us" Zhihao was shocked yet again when he spoke: "No!, Just, I`m not really that open-minded and I`m a little shy if it comes to something like that." Ying Mai smiled as she blushed, at least her master still looked at her like a woman. Ying Mai immediately replied: "Yes Master, I`ll be changing inside the castle now" Zhihao sighed as he just can''t get used to these type of things. then Zhihao immediately walked towards the Practice ground of the Disciples. Zhihao saw the 20 silhouettes of his Direct Disciples, Some are sparring, some are meditating, and some are studying their new Art. When they finally saw Zhihao, they all immediately stopped what they were doing and went him. "Master!" while they spoke, they simultaneously bowed towards Zhihao. Zhihao nodded as he looked at them then asked: "How''s everyone''s cultivation so far?" Ma Dong walked forward as he replied: "Master, Everyone''s been stuck at Divine Origin realm." pausing for a bit, he then continued: "Everyone''s been progressing really fast, but then When we are finally breaking through to the next stage, Only Me, Mo Ying, and Lu Piao managed to break through" Zhihao nodded then asked the system: ''what''s happening here? why have they been stuck?'' *Ding!* =Analyzing... Analyzation complete... They are lacking experience, breaking through is not just about cultivation, but also comprehension, they are entering the realm of immortals, as such, they needed to comprehend life. A match that they can give everything they have would suffice, also they need to comprehend what they are living for, and what''s the next step they need to make on their own. Zhihao nodded, he had the system so he didn''t have such troubles, but they are normal cultivators, so he then replied to them: "You guys need to comprehend life, and as such you`ll need to meditate and think of the ways you want to change your life, and fighting with each other using your full strength will help, let the Three senior brothers of yours help you with it." although Zhihao himself didn''t know the meaning behind the System''s words, he just interpreted it based on his understanding. Everyone seemed to understand what Zhihao said as they nodded and bowed to Zhihao then they spoke: "Yes Master!" Zhihao then thought for a bit as he spoke: "I will make you guys wander the wilds after this, The enemies would be as strong as a Divine Origin Realm cultivator, up to Divine Might''s realm, wait for my orders, You can either die, or survive this, so I can only say good luck to all of you when that time comes" Immediately all twenty of them shuddered, Fighting the invaders that is almost countless! and has the same strength as them! they could only hope to survive this ordeal. Zhihao then walked back towards the Castle as he said: "Prove to me that choosing you all was not my mistake!, Once you''ve finished this trial, You all will improve!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, all twenty of them resolved themselves and gritted their teeth! they were getting too much comfort and thought everything would go as easy as crossing a stone bridge. but they forgot something, they want to be the direct Disciple of Zhihao to help him in his burden of fighting the invaders! Their eyes burned with passion as they replied: "Yes Master!" Chapter 95 Bai Chen and Jingyi After returning inside the fortress, the first thing Zhihao did was to go and find his babies. After a few minutes of walk, He immediately came to the Babies'' room. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "Chen''er, Yi''er, come to daddy!" after speaking like that, Zhihao opened his arms wide. Chen''er and Yi''er immediately looked at where did the voice came from, and as soon as they saw Zhihao. the two of them immediately stood up, although unsteady they walked towards Zhihao''s direction. they are already 2 years and 3 months old. "Da! Dada!" Yi''er leads the charge towards their father. "Dada dadaa!" Chen''er seeing his brother moving faster, he also increased his phase. Noticing the burning will of his brother, Yi''er immediately increased his phase too. Sadly for Chen''er, Yi''er was faster, as Yi''er spoke: "Dada! Lif! hay!" Seeing this scene, Chen''er immediately fastened his phase, but then he stumbled on the ground and hit the floor. Chen''er immediately cried: "Waaaaa, Waaaaa!" Seeing the competition between the two, Zhihao couldn''t control his emotion as tears filled his eyes, It is always inspiring whenever you see your son doing something. Zhihao immediately walked towards Chen''er as he spoke: "There, there, You guys are brothers, so instead of challenging each other, you guys should help one another, Understand Yi''er?" Yi''er seemingly understanding his father''s words came down from Zhihao as he went to Chen''er and grabbed his arms as he spoke: "Ap! Tan Ap! We Dada!" Chen''er immediately stopped crying as soon as he heard his brother, then immediately stood up and walked together with Yi''er towards their father. Zhihao smiled as he held the both of them and lifted them up. Zhihao immediately looked at the maids and spoke: "You guys should rest for now, I`ll take my sons for a walk" The Maids immediately replied: "Yes Master!" and after replying the maids got out to do some other chores. Zhihao then looked at his two sons as he asked: "Okay, both of you, where do you want to go?" Yi''er immediately replied: "Awt! Awt!" after speaking, Chen''er nodded repeatedly agreeing with Yi''er. Zhihao smiled and headed out. Zhihao kept remembering his parents on the earth, and realized something as he questionably asked himself: ''what would I do if I don''t have the money to support my children? would I do the same as my parents?'' Zhihao shook his head and spoke to the two babies: "You guys should always love each other, you should protect each other as you guys are brothers, Understand?" Yi''er and Chen''er immediately nodded repeatedly, seemingly to understand Zhihao''s words. Zhihao then continued: "You both should be stronger than your father in the future, If you have the strength to protect yourself, you can protect anyone under you, Especially your loved ones, That''s why daddy is trying so hard to be strong, to protect you and your mothers, and all our families. Understand? Yi''er and Chen''er''s eyes flickered with determination as they nodded. Zhihao smiled at them as he brought them to the Practicing yard. Zhihao then saw Ying Mai. When Ying Mai saw Zhihao she immediately greeted: "Master!" Zhihao nodded and asked: "how''s your new armor?" Ying Mai replied: "Master, This, I felt like I can challenge people much stronger than me in terms of cultivation, I feel like my powers have increased by two folds." Zhihao nodded then spoke: "I`ll be giving you some skills later, By that time, You`d be able to practice and improve your strength." Ying Mai replied: "Yes Master, Thank you for your grace" Zhihao nodded and was about to walk away. Yi''er and Chen''er''s eyes burn with passion when they saw Ying Mai. then they both immediately looked at each other and nodded in agreement. as they both spoke: "Dada! We! Her!" pointing at Ying Mai, their eyes glistered full of determination. Zhihao then asked: "You guys want to be carried by her?" Yi''er and Chen''er nodded their head repeatedly, this time full of determination. Ying Mai smiled then spoke: "Master, Can I?" Zhihao smiled then spoke: "Sure, take care of them" Immediately after speaking, Zhihao handed the both of them to Ying Mai. Yi''er and Chen''er''s eyes immediately shone as they hugged Ying Mai, and then slept in her embrace, in her chest actually. Ying Mai was shocked as she exclaimed: "Oh My!, they wanted to sleep in my embrace?" Zhihao smiled and then spoke: "Seemed like it, I think they are already exhausted from playing too much today" Yi''er and Chen''er opened their eyes as they looked at each other and smiled with stars in their eyes. Zhihao then spoke: "I should probably take them to their mothers." Ying Mai smiled then nodded: "Yes Master" but when she was about to hand over the babies to Zhihao. Chen''er and Yi''er both opened their eyes and cried: "Waaaa! Waaaaa" when they saw their father backing out, They stopped immediately and pretended to sleep. Ying Mai and Zhihao were stunned, Zhihao sighed as he said: "We should go and take them to their mothers, Sorry for making you carry them" Ying Mai smiled and replied: "Master, This little chore is nothing, I can simply handle it." Hearing their words, Yi''er and Chen''er placed a victory smile on their lips as they looked at each other while hugging Ying Mai''s breast. Zhihao sighed then said: "Let''s go, I`ll lead the way to their Mothers" after speaking, Zhihao walked towards the Fortress again. Ying Mai replied: "Yes Master" after speaking she followed behind Zhihao. _________________ After a few minutes, They finally arrived and saw Ning''er and Xiao''er getting out of the bath. Zhihao then spoke: "The kids had fallen asleep" then Zhihao looked at the Kids hugging Ying Mai''s breast and giggled. Ning''er and Xiao''er smiled as they picked up Yi''er and Chen''er from Ying Mai. the both of them immediately spoke: "Thank you Ying Mai." Ying Mai just bowed as she replied: "It is not troublesome as they are Master''s children." Ning''er and Xiao''er smiled then nodded as they immediately went and placed Yi''er and Chen''er to the bed. Zhihao waved his hand as he spoke: "You can go back to cultivating again" Ying Mai replied: "Yes Master" immediately after answering, Ying Mai immediately left the room. Zhihao smiled as he looked at both Ning''er and Xiao''er and spoke: "I hope these kids grow stronger than me in the future" Both Xiao''er and Ning''er smiled as they nodded. Chapter 96 Write your will Zhihao focused himself through the Development of his Empire, Direct Disciples, and Ying Mai, but the main reason he did was out of boredom too, He cant cultivate or go out of his Empire, He''s a mortal human right now, and couldn''t do anything. but with the help of his set, He has the same strength as that of a Legendary Mask Realm. Finally, The side effects from Berserk God''s skill was finally lifted, 22 days had already passed. *Ding!* =The Berserker God''s Wrath''s side effect has finally Vanished, The Cultivation power of host has been restored to original. After the Announcement, Zhihao''s powers immediately returned and his aura immediately scattered throughout the whole empire. Every cultivator inside the Empire immediately felt the tremendous fluctuation of energy and immediately cold sweats poured out of their body, covering their backs like they were hit by a bucket full of water. Immediately, they located the source of the power, as they looked towards the Floating Fortress. Everybody thought as they realized something: ''The Lord broke through his cultivation? or just release a slight energy from within him?'' they all sighed at the difference between all of them and their lord. It''s like the difference between heaven and earth. Verushka immediately came to him as she spoke: "You finally recovered?" Zhihao smiled and spoke: "Yes, finally" Verushka sighed as she spoke: "I guess my fun already ended, Hmmmp! I better play some games instead" after speaking, she immediately went inside the Floating Fortress. Zhihao scratched his head as he spoke inside his head: ''how''s my Cultivation points growing?'' *Ding!* =The Progress of your subordinates has tremendously been enhanced. your Current points will be shown. Cultivation Points: 3,195.111 Zhihao smiled as he asked: ''Can I view which things could Help improve their cultivations?'' *Ding!* =List will be shown in your window. -Restoration Pill -Nirvana Spiritual Pill -Battle Arc (Fire Elemental) -Miniature Floating Fortress- -Soaring Cloud Pill Zhihao smiled but then looked at the tower thingy, then he asked the system: ''What''s that Floating Fortress?'' *Ding!* =Providing a Floating Fortress can be beneficial to your Celestial Generals, as it could also travel faster. It also helps them enhance their powers through battle. Suggesting Host buy this one for your Celestial Generals, and also get your Celestial Generals to recruit their own subordinates, Increasing the Cultivation Points you earn with fewer problems. Zhihao nodded as he spoke to the system: ''I`ll take the Battle Arc, Also a hundred of each of those pills,'' *Ding!* =Order has been confirmed, all items are within the Host''s Inventory. Zhihao nodded as he immediately went towards the location of Ying Mai. After a few seconds of walking, He finally saw Ying Mai then he pulled out the five skills that he bought from chapter 19. Zhihao then called Ying Mai: "Ying Mai" Ying Mai immediately woke up from her meditation as she stood up and went towards Zhihao and replied: "Master!" Zhihao nodded as he handed some things and spoke: "This is the skills that I will be giving you for now as my Celestial General, You can make your own skills afterward." Ying Mai nodded as she answered: "Thank you Master" Then pausing for a bit, Zhihao continued: "This is your personal Battle Arc it will help you enhance your powers when it is summoned outside, although it will drain a few of your spiritual energy, it will help your power increase." Ying Mai was shocked as she declined: "Master, This thing is precious, I wouldn''t dare accept" she is saying what she truly felt, it''s too extreme to receive something like that. Zhihao then shook his head and said: "If you`ll decline something from me, then you can leave my side from now on." Zhihao paused for a bit as he looked at the horizon, then continued: "As one of my Celestial Generals, you will soar the heavens with me, Something this insignificant can''t be said to be expensive when you are one of my Celestial General, Remember my Status, and remember yours" Ying Mai was shocked as she blushed for the first time in her more than 100 years of life as she bowed and replied: "Master, This subordinate of yours apologize for my incompetence, please punish me" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "No need, so long as you understand, that''s more than enough" pausing for a bit, he continued: "You should also recruit some subordinates and Disciples, although you can only recruit fire elemental cultivators, so you can pass on your own cultivation arts to them" Ying Mai nodded as she replied: "Your orders shall be done Master" immediately she bowed after speaking. Zhihao nodded as he immediately went towards the Location of his Direct Disciples. Seeing the vanishing figure of Zhihao, Ying Mai sighed as she thought to herself: ''If only I was younger, I''d chase you to the ends of the Worlds'' then shook her head, having to be together with Zhihao would be good too, and his Celestial General at that. She immediately went and returned to cultivating wishing that she would be able to assist Zhihao in the future. ____________ After a few seconds, Zhihao finally reached his Disciples Practicing yard. Zhihao did everything he could to fasten the development of those around him, as such they all immediately improved. His first three disciples, Mo Ying, Ma Dong, and Lu Piao were already at Divine Spirit Realm, the others are ranging from Divine Origin Realm to Divine Body Realm. When they all saw Zhihao they immediately stood up as they greeted: "Master!" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "The Trial that I had spoken before, shall start in two days." Pausing for a bit, he looked at all of them as he spoke: "All of you will leave a writen will with me before you depart, I`ll also excuse you all today as you guys return to your family" Everyone smiled sadly as they looked at everyone around them, They had only been together for a month, but the bond they share can''t be imagined anymore. The brothers and sisters together with them will be the ones guardiang their backs in the future, as such, they immediately developed a type of Mentality to shoulder everything together. Zhihao paused for a bit as he asked the system: ''Can I have a badge for my direct disciples?'' *Ding!* =It was already prepared, the payment will be 100,000 Cultivation points each. The armor that''s coming with this badge would be ten times stronger and more effecient than your Royal Army. You just need to set the colors you''d like to input. Zhihao smiled as he nodded then replied to the system: ''Just have it with some White for the Females, and black for the males'' *Ding!* =Done, Just let them raise their hands as I give it to them simultaneously. Zhihao nodded as he spoke to them: "Reach out towards the heaven with your hand, I`ll give you your uniforms as my Direct Disciples." They immediately nodded as they reached their hands out and opened their palm. Afterwards, a Light descended from the heavens as it slowly moved down to their palms. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "That is the Badge of you guys as my Direct Disciples, You guys can equip it in two days after I see you all before you do your mission" Everyone nodded as they replied with fiery flames burning in their eyes, the determination to strive and come out alive in this trial. then they spoke: "Yes Master!" Zhihao nodded as he said: "You all should rest for today, go back to your families after writing your wills and spend the rest of the two days together with them, leave it to Ma Dong, He''ll pass it to me afterwards" pausing for a bit he withdrew some gold coins in a pouch as he said: "Here''s your half a year''s allowance, It contains 5,000 golds each you can keep it or leave it to your families" after speaking to this Point, Zhihao walked towards the Fortress. Everyone of his Direct Disciples smiled, as if they died, there would be no one working for their families, this 5,000 gold coins can set their lives in stone up to 3 generations of their families if it was spent well, this means one thing, "If you guys die, You don''t need to worry about your family". They immediately nodded and smiled as they bid Zhihao their farewell: "Yes, We''ll see you in two days Master" After hearing his Disciples, Zhihao nodded as he vanished into thin air directly going inside the Fortress. Chapter 97 Going back After entering the Fortress, Zhihao immediately searches for his wives and Zheng Shuan. After just a few seconds, he finally found them and went to their room. His wives and Zheng Shuan smiled at him Zhihao then immediately spoke after seeing them: "I`ll be returning Zheng Shuan to her world now" Hearing this words, Zheng Shuan''s smile froze immediately. His wives only sighed as they nodded and continued playing with their phone. Zhihao then continued as he looked at Zheng Shuan: "It will be the fourth day you`ll be missing from Earth in their time, so just think of an Excuse for now" pausing for a bit he continued: "Ning''er, Xiao''er, Verushaka, Would you guys need anything?" Verushka immediately spoke: "You should buy us one or two more of these Phones, whenever we are re-energizing them using the Energy storage devices, we couldn''t use them and we have to wait for an hour or more before we could play again. and also the good smelling things we use in the bath is running out, you should buy those for at least a hundred years of stacks" After finishing her words, Verushka immediately played with her phone again. Zhihao sighed as he nodded then looked at Ning''er and Xiao''er as he spoke: "How about you two?" Xiao''er blushed as she replied: "The same as Sis Veru''s" then immediately bowed as she continued playing with the Phone. Ning''er nodded, meaning that she also would like the same thing. Zheng Shuan had finally become an Earth Establishment Realm cultivator in a span of a single month, she''s quite enjoying the feeling of not getting exhausted after a day''s work. and she wanted to stay with them for some more time. especially spending time with Zhihao. Zhihao then nodded as he spoke to Zheng Shuan: "Do you have anything else to prepare? we''ll immediately depart in the afternoon" Zheng Shuan immediately froze, then she asked: "Would I be able to return here?" Zhihao was shocked as he replied: "Are you sure? weren''t you uncomfortable here?" Immediately Ning''er smacked Zhihao''s head as she replied to Zheng Shuan: "Of course you can return! We''ll welcome you anytime!" Zheng Shuan immediately felt warm as she teared up and bowed, replying: "Thank you sis Ning''er" Zhihao sighed as he couldn''t really understand them, he just spoke: "Okay, you should prepare for the things you`d need, you could get a souvenir too" Verushka smiled as she spoke: "Why not give her an Interspatial ring? it would be easier you know" Zhihao then replied: "That''s right! with this you wouldn''t need to lift anything big! just be sure to not show it in public though" The three wives smiled as they continued playing. Zhihao immediately asked the system: ''Can I buy an Interspatial ring?'' *Ding!* =You can, what''s the space needed? Zhihao replied to the system: ''About 10 cubic meters would do'' *Ding!* =Inserted to host''s inventory, free of charge for now. Zhihao exclaimed: ''You provide something for free?!'' waiting for a while, Zhihao didn''t get a response as he thought of the set that the system gave him, then coughed in his mind. Zhihao then immediately pulled out the Interspatial Ring as he spoke: "Zheng Shuan, you can have this ring, It can fit a lot of things inside, here" Zhihao handed the Ring to Zheng Shuan as he smiled. Zheng Shuan blushed as she received the ring and replied: "Thank you" Zhihao then smiled as he replied: "No problem!, You should prepare your stuff, for now, We''ll leave in about 3 hours, oh and don''t forget to change your clothes, it would be weird if they saw you like that" Zheng Shuan nodded but then realized something as she replied: "The Ring is too wide, It''s a ring for men?" Zhihao smiled then replied: "Oh that? It will re-size on its own, so just wear it in any of your fingers" then after speaking, Zhihao immediately went to his room to rest for a bit and tamper his cultivation power. Zheng Shuan nodded and immediately wore the ring when Zhihao walked away, In her Ring finger. Verushka immediately spoke: "If you like our husband, you can just join us you know, It''s not really that bad, especially when you get used to it" Ning''er smiled as she continued after Verushka: "Yes, We don''t mind, we kind of treat you like our sister anyways" Xiao''er smiled as she looked at Zheng Shuan then nodded. Zheng Shuan smiled at them then spoke: "In my world, there are a few countries that grant multiple wives to a husband, so I`m still not used to it, and I can''t take it into my mind, It feels like I`m stealing someone else'' husband." Ning''er sighed as she replied: "If you let pride get into your mind instead of following your heart, there would be a hole there, a small one, and as time passes by, that hole will become bigger" Verushka smiled: "If you let it bother you, we really can''t force you. But I can tell you one thing, losing your loved ones hurts a lot, I experienced it with my parent" after speaking, Verushka immediately played again. Xiao''er then spoke: "I can''t really express it, but when I thought of how I couldn''t be together with him, I felt my life is going nowhere, and I felt empty and helpless." Ning''er then smiled as she spoke: "It''s your decision, but if it''s us, we''ll accept you, don''t worry about it" Zheng Shuan bowed and replied: "Thank you all," she immediately walked to the other room as tears formed in her eyes. The Trio sighed as they continued to play with their phone. ______________ After the said time, Zhihao waited for her outside Zheng Shuan''s room. After a few minutes, Zheng Shuan came out as she looked at Zhihao. Zhihao immediately asked: "Are you ready?" Zheng Shuan nodded as she spoke: "Un!" Zhihao smiled as he walked closer to Zheng Shuan and spoke: "Stay close to me, I don''t know where the portal will pop out of, but it''s better if you are closer to me" Zheng Shuan nodded to confirm that she understood Zhihao. Zhihao then asked the system: ''We''re going back to Earth now.'' *Ding!* =Order received Summoning Void Portal, Target Earth. Chapter 98 Round two! After the System notified Zhihao, Immediately, A scar in the Air formed, and opened immediately, the same as before, it looked like nothing but a pure darkness. *Ding!* =Host, you can stay for two days in Earth now due to your power revitalizing. That would be the maximum time you can reach until you become a Demi-god. *Ding!* =Cultivation sealed Zhihao nodded then looked at Zheng Shuan as he spoke: "Let''s go now" Zheng Shuan nodded, but then blushed as she replied: "Can I hold your hand? I`m kind of scared entering something as dark as that" well this is definitely an excuse she made up to at least held the hand of the man she loves. Zhihao sighed and then nodded: "Okay" after speaking, Zhihao immediately held Zheng Shuan''s hand and walked towards the Void Portal. Zheng Shuan became flustered as she immediately looked like a red tomato, she nodded and immediately followed Zhihao to the portal. After entering Zheng Shuan''s eyes immediately closed as it was too bright outside, in estimation it should be about 1:00 PM. Zhihao was about to walk out of the parking lot but suddenly an announcement came. *Ding!* =Host''s cultivation has been sealed, Equipment will transform to casual clothes of Earth''s people. Immediately, Zhihao''s clothes transformed as it looked like some attire you use to go out and have fun. Then Immediately after the announcement, Sounds dragged Zhihao''s consciousness back to reality. Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Sounds of Camera''s taking picture and flashes of lights kept shooting at them in every direction. Afterward, a wave of people immediately caused a commotion as they spoke. "Oh my God! It''s Zheng Shuan! she''s holding someone''s hand!" "It''s the handsome brother! oh my! They are together!" "Oh! they were gone for four days!" "What happened? her face and skin looked even better than before!" "It''s like a goddess'' skin! well, she is our goddess after all!" "That children is the power of love" "Zheng Shuan''s left hand! Her hand!" "What''s with her left ha... Oh my god! A ring!" "Woaaaa!" -everyone- Hearing their remarks, Zhihao and Zheng Shuan immediately separated their hands at the same time. Zhihao just sighed as he opened his car door then spoke: "Would you like me to drop you to your house?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she nodded and replied: "Yes please" Zhihao nodded and walked to the other side of his car and opened the door. Zheng Shuan nodded as she looked at the crowd of people and spoke: "Hello everyone, I`m sorry for not notifying the masses about my sudden disappearance, I hope you guys can forgive me" after speaking, Zheng Shuan immediately rode Zhihao''s car. Zhihao closed the door and immediately walked towards the driver''s seat. they immediately drove out of the parking lot. ... Immediately, the crowd of people posted the pictures they got on Bodynote.com a type of social media internationally. Uproars came immediately and the ones that took the pictures got a lot of calls from newspaper companies, buying the rights for their photo to be published. The Netizens immediately became wild after seeing the picture. some pictures were even a zoom-in picture, capturing the delicate looking Ring, Zheng Shuan''s left hand with the gorgeous ring with a purplish gold gem embedded inside. Many people were going wild for this Celebrity and unknown guy pair! "It''s time for the guy to introduce himself!" "Yeah! He''s stealing our goddess after all" "Although I hate to admit it, but looking at them, they really look good together" "Yeah, it''s only The man''s identity that we don''t know!" "Hurry up and show yourself!" "I''d also like to see who on earth her partner is!" "Is it really an unknown guy? can anybody just check the internet for some other handsome guy like that?" "Even if he''s not a celebrity, with just his looks alone he would be a very well-known celebrity if he enters the stage of stars, right?" "The Superstar Zheng Shuan is marrying a guy with unknown origin!" "He''s handsome! A cool oppa! I want to follow him, does anyone know his name? his bodynote? anyone?" "Paying real money for someone that can provide us with information!" The uproar couldn''t be contained anymore, as Zheng Shuan''s agency finally gave up. Deleting a lot of pictures, then some immediately popped up and started, deleting a million just to see another million showing up. ... Zhihao finally droved towards Zheng Shuan''s house, He immediately opened her door and spoke: "We''re here" Zheng Shuan sighed and got out of the car as she replied: "Can I contact you anytime? ah! and until when are you staying in Earth? and when will you come back?" Zhihao being bombarded with questions sighed as he replied: "I can stay here for two days, and will immediately go back as soon as 48 hours passed starting from the time we came here" pausing for a bit he continued: "And yeah, you can contact me if there''s anything important you need to ask" Zheng Shuan smiled as she nodded but he still kept looking at him and not entering her house. Zhihao smiled and as he spoke: "Well, see you then" after speaking, Zhihao entered his car as he drove away. Zheng Shuan looked at the driving car until it vanished from her sight, but still, after the car was gone, she was still standing there looking at the direction the car went. A silhouette appeared behind her as it spoke: "Shuan''er, that''s the guy?" the Silhouette was her mother, sighing while watching her daughter staring at the distant roar. Zheng Shuan replied: "Mom, since when were you there?" Zheng Lin sighed at her daughter''s question, then she replied: "I`ve been here since you`ve arrived, I was looking at you from the start, I saw the picture of you and that guy on the internet that my secretary showed" Zheng Shuan smiled as she replied: "Mom, I`m back" Zheng Lin sighed as she smiled and replied: "Welcome back Shuan, let us go inside now, it''s getting dark" Shuan''s mother held her hands and immediately walked towards their house." Zheng Shuan holding her mother''s hands felt emotionally unstable as she replied: "Mom, I don''t know what to do anymore" Zheng Lin smiled and spoke: "Let''s continue inside" Chapter 99 Magical Door After going inside the house, Zheng Shuan immediately spoke to her mother: "Mom, I met his wives, the three of them" Zheng Lin smiled and replied: "What do you think of them then?" Zheng Shuan cheerfully replied: "They are too kind, Especially Big Sis Ning''er, she accompanied me even when she''s too busy handling many things, and Xiao''er is a shy woman, but we get along really well, we played for the whole mo... four days, It felt like I spent my time with them for a whole month! then there is Sis Verushka, she''s so cute! and all the three of them are more beautiful than me! I had so much fun together with them, I felt so much freedom" Zheng Lin sighed then changed the topic: "Then how were your days with them?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she replied: "I felt, that the time together with them was the best that I ever had, It felt like I had sisters." Zheng Lin then continued: "Do you miss them?" Zheng Shuan nodded as she replied: "Yes" Zheng Lin then continued: "What do You think of joining them then?" "I don''t know" Zheng Shuan replied silently. Zheng Lin sighed as she spoke: "Then, what do they think of you joining them?" Zheng Shuan blushed as she remembered what they told her before. Zheng Lin immediately sighed in her heart, She can already understand her daughter without speaking. She sighed as she spoke: "As a Mother, I wouldn''t want my daughter to be the 4th wife of some man that I don''t even know, but as your Mother, I don''t want to stop you with your love." pausing for a bit, she looked at Zheng Shuan and continued: "It is your choice" Zheng Shuan nodded as she looked at her mom. Zheng Lin then continued: "If you want to, so long as you do, I`ll support you as your mother. I just want to ask you this, Does that man treat her woman unequally?" Zheng Shuan shook her head as she replied: "Mom no, he treats them equally, and at the same time loved them with all his life" pausing for a bit, she then continued: "It felt like, his wives are his everything, and he would do anything for them, even dying" Zheng Lin smiled then spoke: "Wouldn''t you want to be treated like that? well if you got the permission of his wives, wouldn''t the next thing to do is get his approval?" Zheng Shuan blushed then shook her head. Zheng Lin then continued: "So, what''s this ring you are wearing then? did he gave it to you?" Zheng Shuan nodded then replied: "But it''s his gift, not an engagement one" Zheng Lin then checked the ring for closer inspection, but then the more she looked at it, the more shocked she was! she hasn''t seen a gem like this one! it''s definitely not from Earth! Zheng Lin looked at Zheng Shuan as she replied: "This kind of gem, the only way I can think of in obtaining a ring like this, must be a gem from meteorites, I haven''t seen a gem like this before, and for a gift, this Ring is too expensive, should costs around 1Billion USD if you sold it, and you`ll get more if you`ll auction it, If it''s a gift, then the man you loved is definitely a rich guy, or he treasures you too, so tell me, which guy in this world can give you something like that? without paying much heed to it." Zheng Shuan was shocked as she shook her head, the guy he loves is not from this world, but from another one. Zheng Shuan then looked at her mom as she spoke: "Mom, I`ll do my best!" Zheng Lin casually replied: "I know, you got it from me after all" after speaking, Zheng Shuan hugged her mom as she cried immediately. ... Zhihao searched the net for the biggest anime store he can find, and the first thing he found is one from Hong Kong, Zhihao sighed as he drove immediately towards the closest Airport. After a few minutes of the driving, he finally arrived. He bought a VIP ticket from Beijing to Hong Kong. the clerk was stupefied as she found the guy buying the ticket to be extremely handsome, then she regained her composure and immediately handed Zhihao his ticket. The Clerk sighed as she spoke in a low tone: "Sigh, if I could get a boyfriend like that, even if he''s a freeloader, I`ll work for the both of us." Immediately after speaking, she immediately returns to working mode. Waiting for just a few minutes, he immediately went to the security to be checked and immediately prepared to get inside the Airplane. he slept inside the VIP Room inside and asked the stewardess to wake him up when they would be arriving in Hong Kong. The Stewardess didn''t forget to throw a seductive glance at the Handsome rich man known as Zhihao before walking away. After just three hours, Zhihao finally arrived in Hong Kong. Zhihao took a taxi and spoke: "I`d like to go to Bakit Center" Bakit Center is the biggest Anime convention center in China, so Zhihao went there. The Taxi driver immediately nodded and drove the taxi. In just a few minutes, Zhihao finally arrived in front of the Bakt Center. Zhihao was about to enter then, was shocked! what is happening here? There''s a strong individual on Earth? Zhihao asked the system: ''How come there is a Strong Existence in Eart?'' *Ding!* =No Energy Fluctuation detected. Zhihao was bewildered as he replied to the system: ''Even you can''t detect it? How strong is this Power user!'' *Ding!* =I couldn''t understand your worry. Zhihao looked seriously now as he replied: ''The door! He''s opening it with his spiritual energy!'' *Ding!* =... Zhihao just stood there looking at the Automatic door while it open and close as people pass by it. Chapter 100 It was him? Zhihao was searching with his spiritual sense, throughout the whole Center, after a few minutes that he couldn''t detect the existence, he gave up the thought of knowing his location and just placed his guards up, but then a notification popped up. *Ding!* =It''s an Automatic door, once people come close, it will open automatically. Zhihao then widened his eyes as he regained his calm and replied: ''why didn''t you tell me that sooner!'' *Ding!* =... Zhihao sighed as he awkwardly walked inside the Bakit Center. After just a few minutes of walking, Zhihao saw a figure running straight at him. The figure immediately noticed Zhihao in front of her as she called out: "Bro! I''m getting followed by them again!" Zhihao was bewildered by the sudden call and thought: ''Am I getting used again?'' Zhihao sighed as he just looked at the figure approaching him. The figure immediately went behind Zhihao as she looked at her Pursuers. The man leading them immediately spoke: "Ailing, why are you treating us like some stalkers? your father and my father are business partners, right? we''re just tagging along with you and just starting a casual talk." The woman named Ailing then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "Bro! they are too persistent, you should make them go away" Zhihao sighed as he shook his head. The man noticed the situation as he spoke to Zhihao: "Hello there brother, I`m Ru Shilong from Zhiqi Company, I know you are being used, but how about this, just don''t do anything and I`ll give you a million RMB, sounds good?" The man named Shilong smirked. Zhihao was about to reply but then the woman named Ailing spoke first: "My brother is already rich, he wouldn''t need your puny money" after speaking, she stuck her tongue out and threw a few cuss emoticons. Ru Shilong immediately sighed he replied: "Your father doesn''t have a son, you two are the only children he has, so don''t play this trick" Ailing replied: "Didn''t you hear the news? My father is searched for our elder brother, He''s already here! and he''s accompanying me!" Ru Shilong couldn''t help but sigh as he replied: "We''re only protecting you Miss Ailing, Your father dotes on the both of you so much and if anything happens it wouldn''t be good" Ailing immediately rebuked: "I`ll be safer with my brother than with you guys" Ru Shilong sighed as he looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Brother, Can we see a proof of identification so that you can go back to whatever you are doing and Ailing can stop bothering you" Ailing gnashed her teeth as she didn''t think about it before, He made sense! and why would a stranger even help her?. Zhihao sighed as he slips his hands in his pocket pretending to pull out his driver''s license and withdrew it from his Interspatial Ring. Zhihao handed his driver''s license to Shilong to end this facade. Ailing immediately prepared to run again, she finally recovered some stamina again to run for a few minutes. But to her surprise, Ru Shilong was shocked, then He spoke: "Zhong Zhihao? you are the lost son of Mister Zhong?" Ailing was much more shocked, then she smiled as she replied: "That''s right, now you get it? you should go away now before I report you to my father for ruining my time with brother!" Zhihao was more shocked than the both of them as he thought: ''I have the same surname as her? what kind of luck did this girl even have'' Ru Shilong sighed, he wanted to spend some time with Ailing, he took a fancy towards Ailing the first time they met, so the least he would want to do was get close to her, but her brother is here, and he couldn''t do anything to the son of a dragon, Although his father is Mister Zhong''s business partner, it''s just a formality, their wealth couldn''t be compared to theirs, not even 1/10th. Ru Shilong gave up immediately as he looked at Zhihao and spoke: "I`m sorry for bothering your time with your sister Brother Zhihao, I hope you can forgive the rudeness in my behavior" after speaking, he immediately walked away and headed towards the exit. Zhihao sighed as he spoke to Ailing: "You should go now, I don''t think you`ll need me to be your alibi now as he had already walked out" Ailing smiled cheerfully as she replied: "Thank you, bro! you`re too awesome!" pausing for a bit, she continued: "You should give me your Account number, I`ll transfer some money to pay for the inconvenience I had caused" Zhihao shook his head and replied: "Don''t worry, I`m not lacking any money" "No! my father always thought me to repay owed favors!" Ailing insisted. Zhihao then rebuked: "Pay it with your own hands, not your father''s work" after speaking, Zhihao smiled and walked out. Ailing was stunned as she shook her head then spoke: "There are still people that reject money? and they look even cool doing it?" Ailing smiled as she walked in the other direction. After a while, Ailing thought that she forgot something, she immediately pulled out her phone and called her dad, after her dad picked up she asked: "Dad! what''s the name of my elder brother?" Mister Zhong replied: "Oh, sweety, his name is Zhihao, Zhong Zhihao" Ailing nodded then replied: "Oh okay dad!" she immediately hanged up the phone and walked towards the nearest store to buy herself a drink. Ailing then realized something, then she spoke loudly: "Wasn''t his name Zhihao?! Zhong Zhihao! Was it him? My brother?!" Chapter 101 Magic After thinking for a while, Ailing immediately called her father again: "Dad! I met a guy named Zhong Zhihao here in Bakit Center!" Mister Zhong immediately replied: "Are you sure?" Ailing then confirmed: "Yes! He let us see his driver''s license, and the name written in it is Zhong Zhihao" Mister Zhong exclaimed: "Find him and hold on to him, I`ll come immediately" Ailing just nodded and replied: "Yes father, I`ll try my best" after speaking, they both hanged the phone. Ailing immediately went back to find Zhihao while Mister Zhong ordered his secretary to prepare their private jet. ... Zhihao found a Manhua Store and immediately entered inside. There were all kinds of books he went to browse the cover one after the other, but suddenly Zhihao was shocked, there were even +18 rated things on the shelves. Zhihao scratched his head as he sighed, there would definitely be more than thousands upon thousands of books here, Zhihao sighed as he approached the clerk. The Clerk is an average looking fat guy, with a few spots of freckles in his left cheek and neck. with glasses and a hair that looked like half a coconut shell. Zhihao sighed when he approached the clerk then spoke: "Hello, Can you recommend me something for a new reader like me?" The Clerk fixed his glasses and smiled as he looked at Zhihao then he spoke: "Oh, a new fledgling! welcome to our world comrade! the world of fantasy!" Zhihao was shocked as he thought: ''what''s this guy talking about?'' then he replied: "Yes?" The Clerk smiled then spoke: "So dear comrade, which genre do you want to start with? what type of books would you need to start your life with us" Zhihao sighed as he replied: "Something with Battles, War, Demon Beast or Planetary wars?" The Clerk smiled as he nodded then spoke: "Definitely a fledgling, you haven''t reached the middle part yet, but you will sooner or later" after speaking he immediately walked out of the Cash register and looked for some books. Zhihao sighed as he looked at the clerk. After a while, the clerk came back with bundles of books and walked towards the Cashier station. The Clerk spoke: "Comrade, This is all the books that a fledgling like you can have fun and understand immediately, for a total of 300 books, you can choose any of them to read" Zhihao smiled and nodded as he browsed through the books one by one. Then the Clerk noticed that Zhihao picked one of his Favorite books. The Clerk immediately spoke: "That one, is the best that I have read before, The Crux of Berserker God, It was a story of the wars between the gods and the Demons, The Main lead was a normal person that strived to be strong as to help the God''s fight the war between the Demons." Zhihao smiled and nodded as he checked the Synopsis behind the book. The Clerk sighed as he spoke in a low tone: "It would be great if I can see magic things like those that happened in the cultivation novel, such a pity. that would be a big dream of mine coming true!" Then he looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "But, If ever there is a reincarnation, I`ll strive to work hard like those Characters in the Novels, Manhua, and Anime! Everywhere is fine, but not here on Earth, Money rules everywhere in this world of ours" Zhihao nodded as he smiled and continued browsing. After a few more minutes, Zhihao finally chooses 250 out of the 300 hundred books and placed it in front of the clerk. The Clerk spoke: "You`re buying this many? how can you carry all those things?" Zhihao just smiled and spoke: "Well, I`ll show you something interesting," The Clerk sighed as he boxed all the books, he thought: ''so he can lift them up, what great strength he has then'' after finished packing everything the clerk spoke: "I have added three books in there, It''s on the house as your senior in being a Zhainan(Otaku in Japanese)" Zhihao sighed and then replied: "Want to see something interesting?" The Clerk smiled smugly as he saw the 6 boxes of books in the floor he thought: ''Yeah I`d like to see how you can lift those six boxes'' then he nodded as he spoke: "Amaze me fledgling!" Zhihao laughed in a low tone as he shook his head and spoke: "Promise me that you wouldn''t speak of it to anybody else?" The Clerk smiled as he replied: "Hmmp! who do you think we are! even if we speak in the outside world, they''ll only laugh at us!" being proud of something like that Zhihao sighed as he looked at the Clerk. Zhihao then sucked all the boxes in his Interspatial Ring and looked at the Clerk as he walked out of the Store. After the clerk saw what Zhihao did, His eyes opened widely like they will come out of their sockets, and his opened widely. After finally calming down, The clerk immediately ran out of the store as he searched for where Zhihao had gone. then he shook his head as he spoke: "So what those authors wrote was true! there really is cultivation! And I saw one! I saw one!" Immediately, The crowd of people looked at the Fat clerk as they looked at him with eyes of disgust. The clerk noticing their looks coughed and then entered the store. He then remembered something and spoke: "The CCTV!, I can''t let that guy be known!" immediately he went to the PC where the CCTV footage was usually collected. The clerk spoke: "I finally found one! and I`m not sharing it! the master told me to not tell anyone! This is my ultimate treasure!" immediately pausing, then he sighed: "If the manager noticed some cutscenes, I`ll just tell him that I did something humiliating and removed those scenes in the video, He can even cut all of my salaries for the month or even fire me, but I`m not handing this thing!" he immediately stored the copy of the scene in his bag as he returned to his post. Chapter 102 Reunion After leaving the Manga store. Zhihao went and did some window shopping to a lot of more stores inside the Bakit Center to browse some research materials. After a Zhihao bought some few more research materials, He finally decided to return to Beijing so he walked towards the exit of the Bakit Center. When he finally reached the exit a figure of a woman run towards him as she shouted: "HOLD!" Zhihao stopped walking and waited for the woman to approach him The woman''s figure finally reached Zhihao, She was Ailing. Ailing Spoke: "Hey! Zhihao right? you remember me?" Zhihao nodded and asked: "Do you need something?" Ailing then immediately replied: "Ah, Actually my car broke, so I need to ask if you could take me somewhere?" Zhihao sighed then spoke: "I don''t really have a car, so if you can take a taxi and If it''s along the way to the airport, I don''t mind accompanying you there" Ailing was shocked as she thought: ''This guy is rich? I thought father said he abandoned him in an orphanage? maybe this was a mistake'' After thinking, Ailing then exclaimed: "Wooo!, Luckily you are going to the airport, I`ll be going there too!" his father would be arriving in his private jet in a few minutes, so it wouldn''t be bad if they just meet there and not in the Center. Zhihao nodded and walked towards the Taxi waiting slot. after getting inside, Zhihao instructed the taxi driver to drive to Flying Dragon Airlines. Ailing Immediately text his father that they will be going to the Flying Dragon Airlines. After a few minutes of silence, Ailing asked out of curiosity: "What''s your father and mother''s work? which line of business do they make a living?" Zhihao sighed as he thought this girl is too nosy then he just replied: "I was abandoned" Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ailing felt sympathy and at the same time, confirmed one of her father''s description. The taxi proceeded towards the airport when they are close, Ailing received a call from his father. "Where are you both?" Ailing replied: "We''re almost there" after speaking, her father immediately hung up. ... Mister Zhong immediately went to the taxi drop area as he awaits their arrival. he couldn''t help himself from getting his eyes wet. Mister Zhong himself and his wife tried to find their son after they separated from him for 8 years when they had a stable income, but when they returned to the orphanage, their son ran away due to lack of food and necessities, The orphanage couldn''t sustain all the children inside, and there were too few donations that were given monthly, the children could only eat once or twice a day which made Zhihao search for some part-time jobs and leave the orphanage. Mister Zhong wanted to make it up to his son. then his phone vibrated as a message popped up in his notification: ''15 seconds Dad!'' After reading the text, he saw a taxi arrives. The door opened as his daughter Ailing got out and a man with sunglass and facemask got out of the taxi. Mister Zhong immediately walked forward and stopped in front of Zhihao as he spoke: "Are you Zhong Zhihao? I know you don''t know me, but there''s a possibility that I`m your father, I left you in..." But before he could finish Zhihao spoke: "Lost soul orphanage?" Mister Zhong was stunned as Tears immediately flowed down from his eyes and spoke in a low tone: "Yes" Zhihao then looked at the one that seemed to be his father for a while, then he walked towards the airport as he spoke: "I didn''t think I wouldn''t feel anything after seeing you, I guess that''s it, we should separate our ties from here, You''re doing good now right" Mister Zhong was stunned as he runs and grabbed Zhihao''s hand as he replied: "Please, hear me out son, We searched for you when we had a stable income" Zhihao then snickered as he answered: "Now that you found me, it''s all good now, you can leave" Mister Zhong cried as he kneeled on the ground and spoke: "Son, Forgive this useless father of yours, I`ll really make it up to you, Please! please, I beg of you" after speaking, Mister Zhong bowed as his head smacked the ground. Just when Zhihao thought that he couldn''t feel anything from his father''s plea, he was shocked as his heart felt like it was getting crushed. Zhihao frowned and sighed as he looked back. Zhihao casually replied: "Speak" Mister Zhong looked at his long-lost son as he spoke: "I`ll give you all the rights and assets I have, Please forgive your mother and me, Please I beg of you son" Zhihao sighed then replied: "I don''t need wealth, I already got more than enough to last me thousands of years" Mister Zhong sighed sadly as he spoke: "Just, Please forgive us, I`ll make it up to you, When we returned to the orphanage after 8 years you were already gone there, we tried to search but we couldn''t find you anywhere" Zhihao then snickered as he spoke: "I`m three blocks away from the Orphanage, working as an illegal part-time worker, you couldn''t find me?" Mister Zhong cried immediately as he replied: "I`m sorry, son, I thought you have gone to a farther place, so we searched everywhere beyond the Orphanage, I thought you wouldn''t be working near the orphanage since you left it in the first place, who would''ve thought that you were working somewhere near." Zhihao sighed then when he was about to reply, Ailing spoke. "Bro! please forgive father, he really was regretting his decision of abandoning you in that orphanage, ever since we were Young, father kept mentioning it, and it actually became our family''s daily word, I hope you can forgive our father, please! I really want to have a big brother!" Ailing spoke pleadingly with anticipating eyes. Zhihao felt the pain lessened in his heart when he heard Ailing''s plea, then he replied: "I`m... let me think about it" Mister Zhong immediately stood up as he asked: "Can you give me your contact information? just contact me okay? I`ll wait even if the day you forgive is the day I die, so long as you can forgive your mother and me" Zhihao sighed as he handed his phone to his father. Mister Zhong''s secretary was going to reach Zhihao''s phone to help him, but then Mister Zhong rushed forward to get Zhihao''s phone and immediately copied Zhihao''s number. Mister Zhong immediately returned the phone to Zhihao as he spoke: "Here son, My name is Zilong, please don''t forget me, and your mother''s name is..." Zhihao''s chest tightened when he saw such a scene, he thought that his father forgot about him, but were they really searching for him? Zhihao clenched his fist and as he looks at the old man known as his father. Chapter 103 Mom Zhihao''s heart ached every second he sees his father in a pained manner. Zhihao then figured something out as he spoke: "Actually, I`m not your son, he was my friend, you can check my blood if you want, we just got the same name that''s it, Your son died in a river, I don''t know when but he was knocked over in a bridge" Zhihao speaking this felt a sharp pain in his chest. Zhihao wanted to see his family before because he felt jealous whenever he sees a Family with their kids having fun. Zhihao wanted to see them again, but he''s not the same guy anymore, he already has another family, back in the cultivation world. Hearing Zhihao''s words, Zhong Zhilong for some unknown reason felt pain in his heart. he then asked: "Can you take off your face cover, please?" Zhihao sighed as he removed his face mask and shades as he looked at his father. Zhong Zhilong was shocked because of his handsome face but then felt pained again. It feels like he really is his son, but this guy is too young! his son should most likely be 39 years old by now. Zhong Zhilong was in a dilemma now, he really felt that this guy is his son, but he''s too young to be him! Then, When they are having a staring competition, a Silhouette appeared and immediately hugged Zhihao as she exclaimed with tears. "SON!" It was Zhihao''s mother. Ye Bing Bing, Zhihao''s mother rushed from Paris out of her meeting when she heard the news, and had just arrived. Zhihao then felt extreme sadness when he heard her words, and immediately, Tears flowed down his face as he shuddered. Zhong Zhilong tried to pull them apart but was brushed away by his Wife. Zhihao''s mother cried tears as she wept and hugged him. Zhong Zhilong spoke: "He''s not our son, dear you should stop that now, Our son should be 39 years 2months and three days old! that young man is definitely not him! Wake up Ye Bing Bing!" Zhihao Hearing Zhong Zhilong''s words was shocked, they can remember something like that? how much did they wait? Ye Bing Bing then glared at his husband as she spoke: "I don''t know what happened, but as soon as I saw him, I felt the connection between us! Have you not?!" Zhong Zhilong''s eyes opened widely as he himself was shocked, Yes! He felt it too when he first saw the man, and even now! they truly loved him from the bottom of their hearts as their heart was crushed when they left him in front of the orphanage. But when they thought that if they brought Zhihao along with them that time, the three of them would have died from hunger, there was even a time when they couldn''t eat for three days straight and pushed themselves to work hard while having an empty stomach, how would Zhihao bear the hunger that time, would he have survived? The orphanage was the only thing that could help them raise Zhihao, they were sending money to the orphanage every month to help them through the years, but when they heard that Zhihao had escaped, They immediately stopped the support, they tried to search all the streets that time but to no avail. Zhong Zhilong shook his head as he spoke: "Honey, I can feel it too, but he''s too young to be our son, I know it is painful, but he said he only has the same name as Hao''er, and he said that Hao''er had died" Ye Bing Bing hugged Zhihao''s body firmly afraid that she might lose his son again, she just ignored her Husband''s words as she wept in Zhihao''s body. Zhong Zhilong was about to speak when he saw Zhihao''s face and exclaimed inside himself: ''he''s crying? why?'' then he felt pain and had the urged to hug Zhihao but stopped the thought immediately. Zhihao finally calmed down the strong urge to hug his mother, but the pain that he felt when he''s together with them is still there, lingering in his whole body. Zhihao took his mask and wiped his tears he looked sideways and replied: "Madame, I think you mistook me for someone else, I knew your son, He died for a while now" Zhong Zhilong saw Zhihao looking sideways as he spoke and thought of something: ''Maybe it''s surgery?'' He was about to speak, then Ye Bing Bing spoke. "Can you look at me straight in the face and say that? I don''t know what happened to you, but I just know, I can feel it inside my bones, flesh, and blood that you are my son! Please forgive me, Please Hao''er, we couldn''t do anything in the past, but we''ll make it up to you, what do you say Hao''er?" Ye Bing Bing spoke fluently without stuttering. Zhihao then snickered as he looked at his mother, but what he heard and what he''s seeing now is totally different, that astute and confident tone came from this woman? Ye Bing Bing spoke confidently and domineeringly, but it''s written all over her face, that what does that confidence mean were something else, she''s thinking that the Zhihao in front of her is her son, and there is only that truth in the whole world. What Zhihao saw was a face full of sadness, regret, and anguish, the fact that she couldn''t take care of his son was the most painful experience she had ever felt in her whole life, she wanted to make it up with the years that Zhihao was not with her. Zhihao was silent as he looked at his mother he tried to speak: "I.. ... ..." but he couldn''t utter the words to evade his mother. Ye Bing Bing held Zhihao''s hands as tears flowed out of her tears. Ye Bing Bing then spoke to the silent Zhihao: "I would die to get your forgiveness son, I know it is you, I can feel it, you somehow became younger, but what''s important to me is that, You are here already in front of me, If you wish for me to die right now to atone for my sins, I`ll do it right now" Zhihao was stunned as he couldn''t find the words to refute her and like something natural, Zhihao muttered a word: "M... Mo.. Mom.." After speaking, Tears slide out of Zhihao''s calm face. Chapter 104 Hes my Son Back in the Cultivation world. The strongest Being of the invaders had finally recuperated, Rah. "Have you guys finished the preparation? have those clones been fully synced with the inhabitant''s thinking, movement, and actions?" Rah spoke to the Transcendent Beings, the Captains. One of them replied: "We have done everything, and they look, act, and move the same as the inhabitants" Rah nodded as he asked: "How about the visualization of what the clones can see, and what they hear, have those fully been implanted?" "Yes sir" Rah nodded then asked another one: "Why are there a lot of those ones mixed?" "Sir, According to our research, They prioritize beings that they call females, Elder, and children" Rah nodded then looked towards the farther distance, where a pyramid-like structure was made. he asked: "Those prisoners, what''s the best thing to do with them, I think our research with them is done already right?" "Reporting, We can make them as slaves, it will increase our production with the minerals" Rah nodded as he finds it a good reason to keep them. Rah then continued: "We need to hold on as long as we can, Our Archon has died, and we can''t send a distress signal to our Empire, It would take years for them to notice us, since our Empire is already Invading the other realms, especially those from the Gods Realm and the Titan''s Realm, they are too busy to notice our predicament here in the small world" pausing for a bit, Rah looked at his subordinates as he spoke: "Send the clones, Gather as much information we can possibly get" "Yes sir!" immediately all of them went to heed Rah''s Orders. ... Within the Eternal Glory Empire. Ning''er was busy improving the economy of the Empire, While Xiao''er is helping different types of Registration from the laborer needs and payment. About 20% of the total loaned products had finally been returned. Every day, the Development of the city had been improving by a wide margin. ... Ma Dong continued cultivating, as he can spend his time when he returned from cultivation and spends his time with his family. When Ma Dong returned, his wife had already prepared dinner for him. "Welcome home" His wife smiled at him as she prepared to reheat the soup. Ma Dong smiled in return and spoke: "I`ll try my best to complete Master''s mission" His wife immediately shed tears as she smiled and replied: "Just return alive, That''s all that matters" Ma Dong smiled as he answered: "Everything is for the human race, I`d like to have the same aura as my lord, protecting you all as well as protecting the inhabitants of our world" "You`ll always be my husband, no matter what happens" Ma Dong smiled as he spoke: "Don''t worry, even though it''s a trial, It''s not that much of a problem, we''ll just cause them some minor headaches." His wife, Lu Mai smiled as she placed the soup in front of Him. then two silhouettes appeared as they rushed towards Ma Dong. "Daddy!" it was his two daughters. Ma Dong smiled as he hugged them: "How''s the cultivation within the sect? Was it exhausting?" "Nope! It was actually relaxing" Pausing for a bit, Ma Ziyi: "Dad, We missed your fluffy body! now your body is just like hugging a rock!" Ma Minzi also nodded in approval to her Elder Sister''s words. Ma Dong smiled as he replied: "Well, your mother actually likes this body of mine now than what I had before" The Two sisters looked at their mother as they stared with the word written in their eyes "WHY" Lu Mai glared at Ma Dong as she looked at her two daughters and answered: "Don''t believe your daddy, I liked the plump him from before too" The two sisters nodded as they thought they understood that their father is just making a joke. The Four of them continued to talk and later had gone to sleep. ... When the night came. Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er gathered together and started to enhance their fighting skills and solidify their cultivation. Not a single one of them wants to be left behind when the time comes, they wanted to fight together with their husband. but they all knew that Zhihao wouldn''t let them come. as such they always displayed that they are only playing the phones, but they actually enjoyed it, but still their priority is to help their husband in the fight with the invaders, as such they honed themselves every night, to prevent Zhihao from noticing it. Verushka was already at the Legendary Might''s realm, while Ning''er and Xiao''er are still in Divine Might''s Realm. the both of them are trying hard to break through to the Legendary Realm. as such, they needed the guidance of Verushka. once in a while, Xiao''er and Ning''er would spar as Verushka pointed out their mistakes and weaknesses. Improving their battling skills further. ... Back to Earth. Zhihao''s hands were being held by his mother. as he spoke: "M... Mo... Mom" Ye Bing Bing beamed a smile as she tried to hug Zhihao. Zhihao then spoke again: "I`m sorry, I''ve forgiven you both, But I need time to think about it." Ye Bing Bing then exclaimed: "Why? You''ve forgiven..." But before she could continue, she stopped immediately and nodded her head as she replied: "I Understand, Do you need any money? food? have you eaten yet? let''s eat, for now, how about spending some time with us for a dinner, just for today? please?" Ye Bing Bing plead with a sad expression, not wanting for Zhihao to reject. Zhihao saw her mother''s begging face, her sincerity and understanding had became known to him, how much would his life be if he spent it together with them. Zhihao sighed as he nodded then spoke: "Well, I`ll be going back to Beijing for now, so we should eat there instead" Ye Bing Bing nodded as she spoke: "Of course, of course" smiling from ear to ear. Zhihao entered the airport together with the three of them. Zhong Zhilong nodded and spoke to the secretary and his bodyguards: "You guys go back first, we''ll go with our son for now" The secretary immediately replied: "But sir, your safety is..." Zhong Zhilong glared at him as he spoke: "Don''t make me repeat myself twice" "Yes sir" immediately the secretary backed off together with the bodyguards. Zhihao was gonna buy the ticket for the three of them but his father spoke: "Son, we got a private jet, we should take that instead, We can arrive much faster with that" Zhihao nodded and followed his father and mother. then a sudden sound of clicking was heard. Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Shots of cameras from other phone was getting released. -Oh my god! Zheng Shuan''s fiance is the Son of the Zhong family! -This is breath taking! Let''s upload it to bodynote! Zhihao sighed and shook his head as he spoke to his family: "Let''s go, faster, the better" Ye Bing Bing then exclaimed: "Son, you have a fiance? Zheng Shuan? isn''t she that superstar?" Ailing then exclaimed: "Eh? oppa! you and Zheng Shuan are actually together?! can you please get her autograph for me?" Zhihao sighed as he replied: "Let''s talk about it in dinner, It''s a misunderstanding" .... Commotions broke out in the Internet immediately as the news scattered throughout the web. "Oh my gawd!, Zheng Shuan''s fiance is handsome and rich!" "Being the son of a man from one of the leading billionaires in the world!" "A perfect Prince Charming!" "Good looks, Good Wealth! Good everything!" "I would be his mistress if he''d like! even without a salary, just holding his arms would do!" "Who would even want you even if you paid them!" "Mister Perfect has appeared!" "A Pair made in heaven! Banzai!" ... Somewhere in Beijin, inside the house, two silhouettes were talking but suddenly stopped as they saw the The news. -One of the Leading billionaire of the world! his son is engaged to the Superstar Zheng Shuan! This really is a breaking news! what do you say partner" The Female news anchor sighed as she looked at the man in the vizuals. Noticing this, the one that spoke earlier immediately continued: "Here''s some footage and even the video of the person that seemed to be Zheng Shuan''s fiance, and they are even going inside the Private jet of the Zhong family! This is it, please watch" One of the figure was Zheng Shuan, while the other one is her mother. Zheng Shuan''s mother spoke: "That guy is the son of the Zhong family? why didn''t you tell that to me sooner?" Zheng Shuan looked at her mother as she replied: "I didn''t even know!" she thought that Zhihao was a full-fledged being from another world, so she didn''t bother asking about his status. Zheng Shuan''s mother sighed as she spoke: "I guess it would be troublesome for you from now on, It''s a natural acceptable fact for a superstar and a super-rich man to be together, but with that Kind of family they would definitely be the ones that choose their son''s wife." Zheng Shuan sighed as trouble kept popping out of nowhere when she just returned from another world. Zheng Shuan sighed as she spoke in a low tone: "So, he had a family here too? but maybe they are just doing some business partnership?" Then the News showed a video with Zhihao''s father being interviewed before boarding their Private jet. Zhihao''s father spoke: "He''s my son" Zheng Shuan''s eyes and mouth opened immediately as she couldn''t believe what Zhong Zhilong, one of the richest man in the whole wide world said. ____________________________ Author''s Note. Oh, Sorry guys, were you expecting a continuation of Chapter: Mom? Well, I couldn''t think of how to reject them yet! :D Well, sadly I need to make you guys wait until you find the bridge... (4/10) chapter for this week! Hey. Sad news, I think I wouldn''t get the contract. We haven''t been getting any news and it''s for about a month now.

But don''t worry, I`ll try to finish my novel even without the contract, but with lack of inspiration I think I''m going to release few chapters, as this novel will turn from work to Hobby instead :D I hope you guys will still love it by then.. Chapter 105 My Daughter thinks otherwise They had finally arrived in Beijing. Zhong Zhilong spoke: "We can wait here, I`ll call for a car" Zhihao shook his head and replied: "I have a car, let''s just use that" Zhilong and Bing Bing looked at each other then nodded their heads, they were thinking that their son must have bought a second-hand car. Zhilong then nodded and spoke: "Yes, let''s use that instead then" he wanted to see his son''s hard work, after all, they already had accepted the fact that Zhihao is their son even without verification. Zhilong and Bing Bing have this certain feeling that this young man is definitely their child, as such, they treated him like he is. Zhihao then replied: "Okay, You guys just wait, I`ll drive the car here so you three wouldn''t need to walk." after speaking Zhihao walked to the parking area and paid the parking fee. In just a few minutes, Zhihao arrived in his car. Zhilong and Bing Bing were shocked, even Ailing is!, that''s a Scarlet Sarlon, and by the looks of it, it''s the upgraded version! at most, it would cost $2million to $3million! how much is their son earing to buy such a nice car? Zhihao then opened the car''s door and spoke: "You should get in now." Ailing immediately replied: "I`m sitting on the front seat!" Although she had been riding a lot of fancy cars, it''s her first time riding one without being in the middle or behind the car seats. so she''s pretty excited about it. Zhihao then opened the doors and let his father and mother in, Ailing just run to the front seat on her own. Afterward, Zhihao entered the driver''s seat and drove out. ... After a while, they had finally arrived at the most expensive Restaurant in Beijing with the help of WeLocate App from his phone. Zhilong looked at Zhihao as he smiled, while Ye Bing Bing kept trying to talk to him over and over again. It would''ve made everyone felt quite annoyed if their mother kept asking questions like that, but for some reason, Zhihao felt warm inside instead. After some time, they finally got a table for the four of them, with no reservations needed, Who was Zhilong? One of the richest men in the world, They wouldn''t kick him out even if they died, such a thing is as good as a free advertisement. as such, they especially vacated the Restaurant''s East Courtyard and prepared everything immediately. The four of them sat on the table as the waiter handed them the Menu. Zhihao then called the Waiter and spoke: "I`ll take all the food listed in this menu, and also give us some wine" Zhihao couldn''t understand anything written in the menu anyways, as such, he resorted to the easiest solution, Buy everything. Hearing Zhihao''s order, the Waiter was shocked for a single moment as he calmed down and answered: "Yes sir, it will be ready within 1hour and 30minutes. Zhihao nodded as he nodded. Zhilong smiled, they will be wasting a lot of money for this meal. Ailing just waited for them Ye Bing Bing broke the silence: "So, Hao''er what''s this issue with you and Zheng Shuan?" Zhilong and Ailing immediately looked at Zhihao in anticipation. Zhihao just sighed as he replied: "It''s kind of a misunderstanding" "How''d something so big became a misunderstanding?" Ye Bing Bing asked Zhihao then smiled at them then spoke: "Well, It was when I was buying a house for myself to live in,.." Zhihao retold what happened to the both of them, excluding all the things about the Cultivation world. Ye Bing Bing, Zhilong, and Ailing nodded in understanding the situation. Ailing then called out: "Oppa, can you give me an autograph from her? I like her movies! specially Dimeo and Miliet, I watched it for about 38 times!" Zhihao smiled at Ailing''s words as he replied: "Sure, I`ll try to ask..." but before she could finish, a voice came from the sides. "Eh?!" It was a woman''s voice. Zhihao looked at the voice as it sounded familiar. then he noticed, She''s Zheng Shuan herself. what kind of coincidence is this? Zhihao smiled at her as he spoke: "Would you like to join us instead? We ordered a lot of foods, so It would save the time." Zheng Shuan was about to reject, then a silhouette appeared from behind her as she spoke: "Of course, please pardon our intrusion then, I`m Shuan''s Mother" Zheng Lin smiled at the receptionist as she spoke: "Please cancel our reservation, we met an acquaintance" The Receptionist nodded and respond: "Yes Ma''am" these two families are not someone the restaurant can offend, this is the basic knowledge of the World, If you can''t offend someone, just nod at their words. Zheng Lin dragged Shuan''s to the courtyard immediately as she looked at Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing and spoke: "Hello, My daughter and your son are friends, I hope you don''t mind our intrusion" Zhihao''s mother and father nodded as they smiled. Ye Bing Bing then spoke: "We wouldn''t mind." after speaking, Ye Bing Bing called the waiter and ordered an addition of two chairs. Ye Bing Bing actually wanted talk with Zhihao alone with her husband and daughter, but since the guest was a friend of Zhihao''s, she wouldn''t want to reject. After a while, The waiters had brought another set of chairs and fixed the setup. Zheng Lin spoke first: "Zhihao right? What do you think about my daughter?" Zheng Shuan''s mother immediately went directly went to the point. Zheng Shuan was shocked as she spoke: "Mom, What are you doing" Zheng Shuan tried to persuade her mother, but she wouldn''t budge an inch. Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing looked at their son, waiting for his answer. Ailing, on the other hand, is thinking something different. ''I`ll get a handsome oppa! and a superstar noona!'' Zhihao smiled as he casually replied: "We''re good friends" Zheng Shuan even though she already expected his answer to be like that, felt like her heart ached as thousands of needles poking at it. her eyes were about to have tears as she heard her mother continued. "My daughter thinks otherwise, as she is deeply in love with you though, What do you think?" Zheng Lin spoke seriously as she looked at Zhihao seriously. Zhilong, Ailing, and Bing Bing''s eyes opened as they couldn''t believe what they heard. Chapter 106 Discussion Hearing Shuan''s Mother''s words, Zhihao was stunned. He immediately looked at Zheng Shuan with a questioning face. Zheng Shuan just blushed as she looked at the ground. Zheng Lin sighed as she spoke to Shuan: "Looked at him straight, would you cower forever and let your feelings stay hidden?" Hearing her mother''s words, Zheng Shuan immediately looked up and straightly stared at Zhihao. but when she saw Zhihao staring back at her, on second thought, she immediately became a tomato as she looked back at the ground. Zheng Lin sighed as she couldn''t do much with this daughter of hers. Zheng Lin then smiled as she looked at Zhihao''s father and mother as she continued: "Wouldn''t they look perfect together though? My daughter is a good match for him too wouldn''t you agree? and it would also be an advantage as you wouldn''t have to find someone that''s not interested in your assets and wealth" Pausing for a bit, Zheng Lin added: "I have my own assets, although I`m only following you in the Rank of wealthiest people in this world." She paused again as she continued: "Oh I forgot to introduce my self, I`m Zheng Lin, The owner of Nightingale Corporation, Here''s my card" after handing her card to them, Zheng Lin spoke. Nightingale Corporation is the only lingerie company in the world that is labeled with the words ''TOP'' and ''BEST'', they are the most expensive brands, and the most sought out product throughout the world if they are talking about lingeries and underwears. Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing smiled and returned the card, Ye Bing Bing replied: "I`m sorry about my son, but we can''t really control who he loves, and we just found him today after the years that we abandoned him when he was a kid, It was due to our stability then, but we just got to meet him today, so I think we don''t have any jurisdiction towards which he would marry." Zhilong nodded and continued: "I`ll be handling all my assets and company to him, But I''m not really capable of stopping him or his dreams, He can do anything with it, even if he wishes to destroy it himself" Zhilong then looked at Zhihao as he continued: "Son, I know that I wasn''t even a father to you, But I`ll make it up to you, in all the way that I could do so" then spoke in his thoughts: ''Even if I had to die to accomplish your wish.'' Zhihao sighed as he saw the determination to do anything they could do, and he already noticed that they were actually serious when they said that they''ll die if he wishes to, He''s having a hard time deciding on things now. Zheng Shuan and her mother were shocked as they both thought: ''It was their first time meeting their child? they abandoned him before? what are they talking about?'' Zhihao then nodded as he accepted them into his heart, he then looked at Zheng Shuan and was about to speak, then suddenly a group of van approached the restaurant. They immediately wanted to enter the restaurant, The security guard immediately tried to block them as such, they were stopped. Then one of them lifted his camera as he shot at Zhihao''s area in the distant courtyard. Click! After seeing the guy, immediately, all the cameramen took action as they got some shots as well. Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! The sounds of the camera''s taking shots barraged immediately. then the reporters took action as they immediately asked simultaneously. "Is this an arranged meeting for the wedding between the two of them?" "Is Zheng Shuan''s fiance really Mister Zhong''s Son? Please answer" "Are the two big companies gonna merge after the wedding day?" "Are they going to be married this year?" "Mister Zhong, is he really a son of yours? why''d you hide him from the masses?" "Mister Zhong..." "Madame Lin..." "Zheng Shuan..." "Madame Bing Bing..." All sorts of questions popped out one after another. Ye Bing Bing wanted to cry, his own son being questioned if he really is their son in front of them, Ye Bing Bing wanted to say yes proudly, but his son hasn''t even accepted them yet, She wouldn''t want to announce it if his son didn''t as such, she could only weep inside, and keep it inside her heart. Zhilong wanted to shout to the world that he is his son, but remember that Zhihao hasn''t approved of them, he could only grit his teeth as he clutched his hands. Zhihao noticed the two''s emotion as he felt the warm he wanted to receive, they were his family, after all, the first one that he tried so hard to know. If what they were saying before was right, he would only have had lived until 1 or 2 years old, such a fate is definitely horrible for any parent to bear, to watch their son die due to their lack of ability to sustain their son. Zhihao imagined that if he couldn''t feed his son anymore, what would he do? what would you do? would you still try to take care of him even if you knew he will only die? the two of them worked hard to sustain themselves and to send money to the orphanage. Zhihao stood up as he looked at the reported. Zhilong and the rest of them looked at Zhihao wondering what he is doing. Ye Bing Bing on the other hand immediately found hurting in her heart, as she wondered if Zhihao would say that ''They are not my parents'', her chest felt like someone is hammering it and strangling her neck. Zhihao then walked towards his mother and father as he held them together. Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong looked at Zhihao as they are wondering what he''s going to do. Zhihao smiled at them then looked at the reporters as he spoke: "They are my family" Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! The crowd of reporters immediately went wild as they saved their recordings and videos. Zhilong and Bing bing immediately wept tears as they heard Zhihao''s words. for the first time, in their whole life, the word family couldn''t be more important than their life put together. they felt like the words spoken by Zhihao was a blessing that came from the heavens itself as they muttered to themselves. ''Thank you, son, for forgiving these useless parents of yours'' They both immediately bowed as they thanked the heavens for reuniting them together again, after 40 years of separation. tears kept flooding the ground as they had released the tension in their hearts in any possibility of Zhihao rejecting them. ________________ I was gonna stop it here, but I guess I`ll continue since I owe you guys for being late. I guess it would be like releasing another half of the next chapter. well just consider it as some tissue to wipe out your tears or something. ________________ After the reporters finally calmed down they looked at Zheng Shuan and Zheng Lin as they asked their questions. "Are you guys in a marriage arrangement meeting?" Zheng Shuan replied immediately, as she wouldn''t want to force Zhihao: "No, we''re not, as I told you guys, It''s a one-sided love, nothing more, nothing less" she immediately bowed and sat back to her chair and tried to calm down herself. Zhihao was shocked as he thought: ''Were you serious when you said that before?'' Zhihao was speechless, he thought that since the beginning, Zheng Shuan was actually just messing with him as he kept sighing with whatever she did, he thought it was childish to prank someone so that the media would bother him a lot, He didn''t think that Zheng Shuan was actually in-love with him. Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! To break the Tension between the two of them, Zheng Lin spoke: "Oh, I`m actually trying to get my daughter to be married to him, but you guys arrived, how would you guys compensate us for that?" Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Zheng Ling hearing the clicking of the cameras immediately continued: "If you don''t stop now, I`ll make your station go bankrupt!" Her words sounded like a thunderclap from heavens itself. such proclamation, who wouldn''t. but then they thought, one of the richest people in the world said it, and we can''t go against those words. The world was silent when Zheng Lin spoke, even the drop of a needle can be heard with this silence. Zheng Lin continued: "You guys got my answer, and so is the answer of the kids, so when are you guys leaving?" "Yes Ma''am!" they were quite obedient when it comes to losing their work, even going to prison due to bankrupting their TV station is possible, it made them have cold sweats in their backs, a threat from a normal celebrity is fine, but from a Super corporation such as these two gigantic establishments, that is definitely not something to joke about. Immediately, the reporters simultaneously packed their things as they run back to their own Van and scampered away. Zheng Lin then spoke as she sat down: "Now, It''s quiet, Let''s continue our discussion" Chapter 107 I know Zheng Lin smiled as she looked at Ye Bing Bing then spoke: "Madame Ye, how do you think about My daughter and your son getting married?" Ye Bing Bing sighed as she replied: "I`d like the idea, but I would leave everything into Hao''er''s hands, It''s his choice to make, not ours, We love Hao''er so much too, so we can''t go and force him to anything he doesn''t want to do." Zheng Lin sighed as she looked Zhilong. Seeing Zheng Lin''s stare, Zhilong coughed as he spoke: "To be honest, I`d like to support the two of them, but it''s still Hao''er choice if he''ll proceed with it." after speaking, Zhilong sighed and just coughed as he sipped on his wine. Zheng Lin then sighed again as It all goes down to the two of them. Zheng Lin looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "What will you do about it? You made my girl cry two times in just a single week." Zhihao was shocked as he replied: "I did?" Zheng Lin sighed again, this day she just kept sighing like it''s a daily thing to do for her now. She then looked at Shuan and spoke: "Shuan, Do you like this guy? Yes or no?" Zheng Shuan was shocked, then she answered in a low tone: "Yes." Zheng Lin looked at Zhihao with the face that''s saying, ''see?'' Zhihao was stunned for a bit as she looked at Zheng Shuan. Zheng Lin finally figured out something, This guy Zheng Shuan like is a complete dunce if it comes to feelings, and he''s too dense, you just have to shove it all in, Zheng Lin sighed after the realization she just found. Zhen Lin then looked at Zhilong and Bing Bing as she spoke: "See? they really make a good couple no? A dense guy and a shy girl" Ye Bing Bing chuckled as she looked at her husband and replied: "I guess it runs in the genes" Zhilong coughed as he continued sipping his wine. After a while, a lot of food carts arrived and served the dishes one by one. Zhilong then spoke: "Hao''er let''s eat before it gets cold" The parents looked at Hao''er as they ready themselves to eat. Then to their surprise, Zhihao was still looking at Zheng Shuan. Zheng Shuan heard them and glanced at Zhihao immediately, but then Zhihao was actually staring at her! Zheng Shuan immediately became paralyzed as she stared back at Zhihao. Zhihao then spoke: "You weren''t messing with me that time? You actually like me?!" Zheng Shuan immediately blushed, but then she resolved her will as she spoke: "Please go out with me! It wouldn''t have to be a marriage, but please go out with me as I`ll try my best for you to develop feelings for me." after speaking, she blushed redder now as she looked at the ground, Embarrassed of what she had said herself. Zhihao was gonna reject, but it would be too unreasonable even for him, she summoned all her courage to confess, and it would be rude to reject right now. Zhihao then smiled as he replied: "Please take care of me." Zheng Shuan immediately looked at Zhihao as she replied: "Please take care of me too" after speaking Zheng Shuan immediately cried as she held her hands to her face to cover her embarrassment. Zheng Shuan confessed in front of her mother and Zhihao''s parents and sister, she couldn''t imagine their face right now. Zheng Lin smiled victoriously as she spoke: "Let''s eat now then, Let''s celebrate you guys going out together!" Pausing for a bit, she shouted in an unladylike manner: "Waiter! We need champagne here! the best ones you have!" The waiter immediately nodded and got some from their stash. Zhilong didn''t say anything as he smiled and spoke to his wife: "Let''s eat" Ye Bing Bing with tears in her eyes nodded and replied: "Lets" Ailing then intervened after the long silence as she looked at Zheng Lin and spoke: "Madame, Will I get a lot of free things from your company now? Like those things that you haven''t released in the market yet?" Zheng Lin smiled as she replied: "Of course, as many as you want" The four of them celebrated like nothing happened, while Zhihao and Zheng Shuan are eating awkwardly glancing at each other time and then. Zheng Lin, Ye Bing Bing, and Zhong Zhilong chatted the whole time. While Ailing kept taking pictures together with Zheng Shuan and making her sign papers for a lot of autographs to boast to her friends. ... After a while, they finished their meals and bid farewell to each other. Immediately, the bell boy drove their car to the entrance and handed Zhihao his keys. The four of them entered the car as Zhihao drove towards his Mansion. Ailing and Bing Bing finally fell asleep in the rear set. they were all a bit of drunk, and Ailing was already 18 this year, so she could already drink some alcohol, but her tolerance wasn''t much. Zhilong smiled at their sleeping faces as he looked at Zhihao. Zhilong spoke: "Son, About before, I`m really sorry about what happened, We didn''t have a choice that time" Zhihao nodded and replied: "I''ve figured it out today, don''t worry" "But, even if god reversed time to that year, We''ll still do it" Zhihao nodded and replied: "I know" "But the only difference this time is, we know where you`ll be working." "I Know" "I`ll make it up to you, I`ll do everything to make it up to you son" "I know" "I hope that this time, It will be different and I`ll make things right!" "I know" "I trully regretted not getting to find you" "I know" "Son... I`ll" taken by the effect of Alcohol, Zhilong finally fell down and slowly fell asleep. He was too happy today that he drank so much that he got drunk in the end. "Sleep well" "Hao''er... Your... Mother... and... I... Love you" finally with the last of his consciousness he spoke those words. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "I know" ________________ Author''s 1st note!: I can''t advance their progress in the relationship, I`ll do it as normal as possible! so you guys don''t go getting your hopes up for some actions, you`ll need to wait for a while more!.

Let''s continue the struggle in my Dao of Writing something really bad novel thingy! I think I have more talent in writing dramas than cultivation world, but i seriously like the Cultivation world genre.. .sad Chapter 108 Transformation After Driving for a few more minutes, Zhihao finally arrived in front of his mansion as he spoke to the guards: "Call Butler Ma, Tell him to prepare two separate rooms for my family." The Guard nodded as he replied: "Yes Master" after speaking he opened the gate and called the Mansion''s phone. Zhihao drove his car to the entrance of the Mansion and woke up his parents. "Mom, Dad, Ailing wake up, we''re here." Zhilong and Bing Bing woke up immediately as they smiled with tears in their eyes, hearing Zhihao spoke the words Mom and Dad made them realize that everything wasn''t a dream, and it''s definitely a fact. Although their heads were aching, their beloved son woke them up for the first time in 40 years, they were too happy to bother with some hangover. Zhilong tried to carry Ailing but was stopped by Zhihao. "Dad, I`ll carry her to the room, follow the butler to your rooms. Zhilong smiled and nodded, he brought Bing Bing to follow them. Ye Bing Bing with tears spoke: "Goodnight son, you should rest well today." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Got it, mom, you guys rest too." ... After Zhihao brought his sister to her room, Zhihao went to his. Zhihao disperses the alcohol in his body, as he smiled and laid in his bed. after a while, Zhihao heard a notification popped into his head. *Ding!* =Host has removed a lock preventing the host from advancing to Mythical Lord Realm. Zhihao was shocked as he asked the system: ''Lock?'' but before he could hear a response, another notification popped up. *Ding!* =Unlocking System Function, Fusioning ability.All Stats of the host will merge with Host''s body. counting down starts. 3... 2... 1... Zhihao was shocked as he spoke: ''Wait, what are you...'' But before he could finish his thoughts something happened. Zhihao''s body steadily grew in size, all his muscles are trembling as his physique transforms into something humongous. (Like Halk) Zhihao felt pain from all over his body as it aches from every muscle, and bone, both internally and externally. The feeling of his skin stretching, as everything within him, increases in size as it bulged from his whole body. "Argggh!!!" Zhihao gritted his teeth as he tried to endure the massive pain that''s being done to him by the transformation. *Ding!* =Sealing the room, Preventing the sound from leaking and being heard from the outside. Hearing this, Zhihao shouted without holding back. "AAARGH!!!" Zhihao''s face now has liquids coming out of his face, his eyes, nose, ears, and mouth. but was red and thick, these are Blood combined with his saliva and tears. "Huff... Huff... Huff..." Zhihao finally calmed down as the pain gradually decreases. Zhihao asked: ''what... was... that...?'' But after asking, His physique immediately went another transformation, as this time it was in reverse. "GRAAA!" The pain was actually ten folds of what he felt earlier, as everything inside his body shrunk, but this time, everything inside his body started to contract Zhihao shouted to the top of his lungs as the pain was not something any ordinary person can endure. "GRAAAA!" Another shout from Zhihao came from the bottom of his stomach as he bears the intense pain coming from the reconstruction of his body. he felt like he''s nearing his death as his consciousness is slowly fading. *Ding!* =Host please endure. As Zhihao heard the System''s words, he tried to stay conscious to and overcame his limits. Zhihao gritted his teeth and endured the pain as much as he can. ... After 30 minutes, Zhihao felt his whole body gone numb, but what shocked him was that he was actually recovering really fast. then he heard the System''s notification again. *Ding!* =Congratulations for acquiring Tyrannical God''s Body. It enhances your physical ability, regeneration, strength, agility, and the bonus of your intelligence and wisdom stats, you`ll learn fast, and get the broader knowledge to things. your body has been cleansed. Further development of this body in Demi-god Realm, and God''s realm. After hearing these words, Zhihao finally collapsed and directly hit the floor. ... Morning came as Zhihao woke up, It was already 10 AM in the morning. Zhihao saw the pool of blood, sweat, and some black liquids on the floor. Zhihao scratched his head as he sighed, he immediately pulled some of his used clothes to dry the floor up, he went to his personal bathroom to get some toothpaste to remove the marks of the blood. After cleaning the floor, Zhihao burned the clothes he used and dispersed it through the winds. Zhihao immediately smiled as he found that his new body isn''t bad at all. He went out and went to the guest hall, then after arriving, he saw his family sitting there. Zhihao spoke: "How are you guys? did you sleep well?" Zhilong smiled as he nodded. His mother, Ye Bing Bing spoke: "Yes we did, how about you?" Zhihao replied: "I slept well." Ailing then intervened in their chat: "Bro! you own this mansion?" "Yes" Ailing was shocked then replied: "Wow, you became rich! well with your face, You could find any job in the world just by standing, and you`ll get the same salary as a CEO." Zhihao smiled as he nodded at Ailing, then he looked at his mother and father as he spoke: "I need to tell you guys something." Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing pondered about what he''ll say, but they just nodded and replied: "Okay" Zhihao spoke to them: "Let''s go to the Terrace, We need to talk about it in private" pausing for a bit, Zhihao looked at Ailing and spoke: "Sorry sister, you`ll need to stay here for a bit, I need to talk about it with our father and mother" Ailing nodded and responded: "No worries bro! I got it" Zhihao then continued: "Let''s go, mom, dad." after speaking, Zhihao walked up the stairs. Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong looked at each other as they smiled and followed Zhihao up. Chapter 109 Truth After a while, Zhihao and his parents finally arrived. Zhihao spoke: "Please sit, mom, dad." pointing at the chairs. Ye Bing Bing nodded and smiled as she sat in the chair. Zhilong then spoke: "I`ll stand behind your mother, she might collapse by your topic" Zhilong jokingly said. Ye Bing Bing just hmmped as she looked at Zhihao and spoke: "You can speak about it now, what''s the matter Hao''er?" Zhihao then spoke in his thought: ''Can you please make the whole area around us soundproof, and make it so that they can see it too?'' *Ding!* =Of course. Immediately, a soft thing floated out of Zhihao as it became a barrier that surrounded the whole terrace, the air around them looked like a transparent wall with the effects like they are inside a bubble. Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing were shocked as they looked around, and finally looked towards Zhihao. Zhihao then spoke: "I died, I think it was when I was 39 years old." Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong was shocked yet again, he died? how? why is he here then? Zhihao continued without waiting for their response: "I thought, that I would have been my last day on Earth at that time, But I guess someone gave me a second chance." Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong nodded as they continued to listen, they were thinking too hard too, how come their son died, and given a second chance? a reincarnation? were those things real? Zhihao then chuckles as he continued: "But don''t think of dying, the thing that happened to me maybe a one in a hundred chance, maybe thousand? or maybe million? I don''t really know" His father and mother nodded together, they wanted to confirm something too, and that is, how did their son become so young again. Zhihao then started to narrate: "My last days here in that body, was when I finally acquired information from the both of you" Pausing for a bit, he then looked at them and continued: "I bought that information from the people that likes to dig some things up, I got enough money for a plain to the Philippines, and wanted to show in front of you both and curse you guys, hahaha, well after thinking about the hardships you guys went through, I doubt I`ll do that even if you guys beg me to" Hearing Zhihao''s words, both Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing teared up, they confirmed today that they were definitely forgiven, then they looked at Zhihao waiting for his words. Zhihao smiled at them continued: "When I arrived at the Bridge between Beijing and xxx city, I saw a few children playing tag, they weren''t looking at where they were running to, so I evaded them when they almost bumped into me, but due to my exhaustion that day, I lost my balance and fell from the bridge, that was the day I died." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong frowned as they felt guilty, they had a lot of money but couldn''t find him for more than 30 years, but their son didn''t give up and continued to search for them, for whatever reason he did it, they still felt warm and sad at the same time, they still caused their child''s first death. Zhihao then smiled as he spoke: "Well, I thought I died, but I actually got reincarnated in another world, where superpowers are real, and strength is everything while rules and laws are second" "I was reborn in a rich household family, and became a Young Master, I actually have three wives and two sons now, I`ll show you guys when I get back to that world" "See this stone?" after speaking, Zhihao crushed the stone as he looked at it getting crushed to pieces. "These are one of the Powers I acquired during My stay there, and someone''s help actually, he was also the reason I got reincarnated. It was thanks to him that I had a second chance at life" Ye Bing Bing teared up as she heard Zhihao''s words, at least her son found a good parent from another world. they couldn''t actually believe it immediately, but what can they do? facts are clearly in front of them now, something science can''t explain. Zhilong teared up, why couldn''t they have found their son, how incompetent were the people they hired that time. Zhihao seeing their expressions, sighed as he spoke: "You guys should be happy now though, I already got two sons, that means you guys are grandparents now" Ye Bing Bing smiled as she replied: "Yes son, but it''s still painful how we couldn''t see you grow up, but still, I want to meet them too." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Of course, I still can''t take you guys there, but maybe in the future." Zhilong accepted every word Zhihao spoke as he thought of something else: "Son, what about Zheng Shuan, what will you do to her?" Zhihao rubbed his nose as he replied: "She actually came to that world for a month''s time, by accident, she got dragged when I returned, so she already knew about my three wives, and my sons" Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing smiled as they sighed, that girl Zheng Shuan really loves their son, even if sharing the man she loves with other women so long as she can be together with Zhihao, she''ll drop her pride for him. They mentally accepted Zheng Shuan in their heart. Zhihao then spoke: "I can only stay in this world for two days, I can only return when I spend a month''s time in another world, and I`ve almost used one day, but don''t worry, I can return every four days, a month''s time in that world, is four days in this world, but if I couldn''t come back in time, It only means I have things to do in that world and am really busy" Ye Bing Bing then spoke: "When can you stay here longer? That world is dangerous" Zhilong nodded towards her word as they looked at Zhihao waiting for his answer. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "Don''t worry, I`ll be able to overcome everything in that world, and I`ll protect it too, so I can return here after everything''s done" Zhihao didn''t tell them about his struggles from the other world to prevent making his parents worry further. Ye Bing Bing nodded as she spoke: "Just be sure to stay safe, I... I can''t take it if you disappeared for the second time." Zhilong only looked at Zhihao as he wouldn''t want anything to happen to him, but what can he do if he only has two days to spend in this world. Zhihao smiled as he smiled: "I will mother, don''t you both worry about me too much, as I`m actually pretty strong there, Just think of it as I`m playing a PC game" Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong could only nod their heads, they can''t do anything after all. Zhihao then smiled as he spoke to the system: ''Please disperse the sound barrier" *Ding!* =Order received. Immediately, The barrier dissappeared into thin air. Zhihao then spoke: "Let''s go down now, Ailing must be bored to death there" after speaking, the three of them walked towards the Living room. Chapter 110 Chromium Bracelets Zhihao and his parents immediately came back to the living room. Zhihao then thought of something as he asked: ''System, Can I get them something from you to protect themselves?'' *Ding!* =No. you can''t take higher materials and bring it to lower realms like this world. Zhihao smirked then continued: ''Can I make something for them if the materials came from this world?'' *Ding!* =Yes... Zhihao smirked as he felt like he finally won for once in his life with an argument with the system. Zhihao then spoke to his family: "You guys should wait here, I`ll make you guys something." Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing pondered for a bit as they spoke: "Make us something? you can cook?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "Just wait for it, It''s my gift to you guys" Zhihao then searched through the internet what''s the toughest metals are there in the earth. After a while, Zhihao found out that it was Chromium, Zhihao immediately searched the internet for anyone who''s selling it. then after a few seconds, he finally found one. Zhihao immediately made a call. "Hello, this is the Great Steel Commerce right?" Zhihao spoke after he heard the phone was picked up. The person on the other line replied: "Yes sir, how may I help you?" Zhihao then answered: "I''d like to buy some chromium metals, how many do you guys have?" The person on the other line smirked as he thought: ''you boasting about buying everything?'' he then replied: "Sir, how much do you need?" Zhihao then pondered for a bit as he replied: "I`ll need about 100 kg, and I`m in a rush, so can you guys rush it? I`ll pay four times the normal price" Hearing Zhihao''s word, the one man immediately replied: "Yes sir! of course!, I`ll deliver it personally!" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Thanks, the address is XXX-XXX-XXXX" "Woah!, Yes sir, I`ll immediately go up there, I`ll deliver it immediately, within 20, no 10 minutes tops!" after speaking, he immediately prepared the receipt and materials and got help from the workers. Zhihao nodded as he put down the phone. ... Within just 8 minutes, the truck came and delivered the items to Zhihao. The Man spoke as they placed it in front of Zhihao: "Sir, where would you like to place it?" Zhihao casually replied: "Just put it there, here''s your payment" The man immediately smiled as he accepted the payment, he smiled widely as he replied: "Thank you, boss! Nice doing business with you!" he immediately divided it to 2/3 and gave the 1/3 to the workers. they all became happy, well they knew that it''s a shut up fee so they just needed to shut up with this. After handing the papers, Zhihao casually lifted the big Box to his shoulder. The delivery men immediately became shocked, It took them four manpower to just lift it, but this guy lifted it with one hand like picking a tissue paper. Zhihao noticing their gaze immediately realized it as he acted like he''s having a hard time and placed it on the ground as he pulled it inside. The men chatted with widely opened eyes as they spoke. "Was I seeing things? he lifted it quite easily?" "I saw it too! what was that?" "Maybe it was just an illusion?" "Don''t talk, let''s go out! we got money, we should drink afterward! It''s my treat!" The Man that handled Zhihao''s call spoke, he was too happy to ponder about such things now. All of them immediately replied: "Yes sir!" They were happy, getting to drink at weekends and for free is something a lot of workers in the world would like to have. ... After entering the house, Zhihao spoke to his family as he said: "I`ll make something, you guys wait here" The three of them nodded as Ye Bing Bing spoke: "Go on then, We can wait for a long time" Zhihao then carried the big box in his shoulder as he went back to his room. Zhihao then spoke to the system after he arrived in his room: ''There''s a Smithing function right? I need to use it now'' *Ding!* =Confirming Host''s order, Summoning smithing tools.. After that, an ancient looking anvil with the head looking like that of a dragon appeared in front of Zhihao, and a hammer with a Head of a Pegasus in both of it''s rear and front. Zhihao then smiled and asked the system: ''How do I use this?'' *Ding!* =Just make a configuration of something that you`d like to make in this window. After the System spoke, a window appeared in front of Zhihao. Zhihao then pondered for a bit, then he immediately withdrew some golds from his Interspatial ring. he placed it in the Dragon Anvil as he made the designs of the thing he wanted to create. After a while, Zhihao smiled as he clicked confirmed. *Ding!* =Proceed in making? how many Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Proceed, One for male and five for females." after speaking, The hammer immediately flew as it the metals had gone in the Dragon Anvil. Ting Ting! Ting Ting! Ting Ting! The sound of Metals clashing was heard, as the metals started to mold one after the other, Zhihao designed a male and female version of bracelets. After an hour of Ting Ting! Ting Ting!, the bracelets were finally done. *Ding!* =Name your creation. Zhihao looked at the bracelet as he replied: "Celestial Protection Bracelet" *Ding!* =Celestial Protection Bracelet has been decided, Proceed? Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Proceed" Zhihao then looked at the bracelet as he spoke: "Appraise." Celestial Protection Bracelet (Epic) Growth type. -A bracelet that protects the user 10 times from any life-threatening events from this world(Invalid in cultivation world) -Relaxes the wearer -Has a passive of continuously rejuvenating +23 Strength directly to the wearer. A Masterpiece made with low-grade materials. Zhihao smiled after looking at the item as he spoke: "This would be very useful for them, and I can worry less too" after speaking, he immediately walked out of the room with smiles on his face. Chapter 111 Something gentle. Zhilong, Bing Bing, and Ailing waited in the living room. then a call from Ailing''s phone was made. Ailing picked up the phone as she replied: "Sis, what''s up?" "Where were you guys?what happened? you guys haven''t contacted me, I`m in Beijing right now" The one on the phone is Ailing''s elder sister Zhong Ziyi. Zhilong looked at Ailing then asked: "Is that your elder sister?" Ailing nodded and replied: "Yes dad, she''s in here in Beijing" Ye Bing Bing then asked too: "She was in Paris, what is she doing here?" Ailing shrugged her shoulders as she replied: "I don''t know, just ask her when she arrives" Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing nodded as they waved their hand letting Ailing continue. Ailing then spoke to her sister: "Sis." Ziyi intervened immediately: "Was that mother and father?" "Yes." Ziyi then just sighed as she asked: "Where''s the address I`ll go there immediately." Ailing immediately replied: "Oh, we''re here! I`ll text you the address, our elder brother has been found!." Ziyi then replied: "I know, I saw it in the news, it was the most talked topic on the internet after all" ... After a while, Zhihao walked down the stairs as he smiled at them. Zhihao then spoke: "I have things for you guys, it''s these things." Zhihao immediately pulled out the bracelets he made in his room. The bracelet for females looked like vines entangling together and it was fully covered with gold, there were also small golden roses showing it''s bloom as it embosses out of the bracelet and diamonds in the middle of it, a total of 24 pieces. The Male version of the Bracelet is a draconic figure of a mighty dragon, coiling around as it formed the whole bracelet, while ruby was embedded in its eyes. Zhihao smiled as he handed the bracelet to them, then he spoke in a low tone where only his father and mother could hear his words. "Those are magical bracelets, it will protect you guys from any dangerous thing that could lead to your death or injury, it also has all sorts of effects" Zhihao looked at them warmly as he spoke. Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing smiled as they were about to say something, but then Ailing spoke. "Bro! It looks so cool! but I think it won''t fit my arms. It is so wide that I can fit it in my neck!" Ailing pouted as she made her stand. Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong wanted to comfort her and say that they''ll have some artist adjust it for them, it really looked like a kid''s bicycle wheel after all. but before they could speak, Zhihao intervened. "Oh, there is actually a secret to that, but once you wore it, it won''t ever be removed for a week, you can immediately wear it after it got removed though, just be wary of time, would you like that? It''s like a permanent tattoo" Ailing''s eyes brightened up as she replied in excitement: "Bro! me want! me want! tell me how! PM sent!" Ailing spoke in a cutesy manner as she held Zhihao''s arm. Zhihao sighed as he whispered in her ears in a low tone: "It''s actually easy, you just have to shout "Rider Change!" and place it in your arms" Ailing then blushed as she looked at the ground, deciding if she''ll actually do it. Zhihao''s father and mother asked Zhihao: "What did you say to make that cheerful girl become like that?" "Yeah, she''s always willful." Zhihao chuckles as he replied: "Watch, It''ll be interesting." Ailing then looked at them as she spoke to them: "You guys don''t laugh" she looked at Zhihao as she asked: "Was that really it? is there no other alternative?" Zhihao pretended to ponder for a bit as he replied: "That''s the only thing I know of right now" Ailing then stood up as she looked serious while blushing like a tomato as she spoke: "Please don''t laugh" Tears formed in her eyes as she posed and held her arms upward and shouted: "Rider Change!" after shouting, she immediately placed the bracelet in her arms. Zhilong and Ye Bing Bing were about to laugh when a dim light suddenly appeared on the bracelet as it morphed to fit her arm. like a vine, it slowly crawled towards her whole arm as it morphed into a fine masterpiece, although it had morphed in her whole arm, it was still a little thick as it still showed itself embossed in her arms. The Three of them became extremely shocked, as they asked in their head: ''Would we need to do something like that to wear the bracelet?'' they already thought of something this crazy to happen, but they didn''t think they would do it themselves. Ailing was so excited after the transformation as she spoke: "Brother! It really happened! It really happened! Am I a superhero now!?" Zhihao pondered for a bit, then shook his head and replied: "No, but your strength has increased a bit. it will also help you relax and helps release your stress." An Average builder''s strength goes between 33 up to 40 strength based on the System''s calculation, although her sister had already surpassed them it''s better not to tell her, or something might go wrong. Like a certain someone going wearing a mask and saving innocent civilians being harassed or preventing some robbery from happening. Ailing smiled as she nodded and looked at her new bracelet, although it looks like a Spartan lace in her arms, the only difference is that, it looked so beautiful that it made everything else matter not. Ailing then tried to move her arms as the Bracelet also covered her joints. but after moving it, she was shocked as she exclaimed: "Brother! what''s this bracelet made off? I couldn''t feel any weight and no discomfort anywhere! This is too amazing!" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "It''s Chromium and Gold" Zhilong was shocked and exclaimed: "The strongest metal on Earth? what? It just morphed like it''s some soft silk!" Zhihao smiled at his father without saying anything. Ye Bing Bing then pinched her husband as she looked at him and sighed. Zhilong then remembered his son is not one of the Earth''s human anymore. Zhihao then changed the topic as he looked at Ailing then spoke: "Ailing, You didn''t need to pose though, I only said you to shout" Ailing then realized this as she punched Zhihao and spoke: "You`re such a bully brother!" Zhihao felt warm and then, Zhilong spoke. "Son, Do I have to do that too? I mean the shouting?" Zhilong asked in embarrassment. Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "No dad, it''s just a simple prank on Ailing, you can just place it on your arms, it will transform immediately." Zhilong and Bing Bing let out a sigh of relief and immediately placed the bracelet in their arms. After placing the bracelet in their arm, what they witnessed with Ailing immediately happened again. Ailing then pouted as she exclaimed in embarrassment: "Brother! why are you bullying me! wu wu wu." The Trio laughed happily as they heard Ailing''s words. ____ Disclaimer note.

Living room of Zhihao''s Mansion. Zhihao''s parents, Zhilong and Bing Bing wore their bracelets after they had their laugh. After a while, Zhihao butler, Butler Ma walked to them. Butler Ma reported: "There''s a woman waiting in the gates master" Zhihao then asked: "Is it Zheng Shuan?" Butler Ma shook his head as he replied: "No Master, someone I haven''t seen before." Ailing then intervened: "Is it a woman wearing glasses, with black hair and stern face?" Butler Ma looked at Zhihao''s sister as he replied: "Yes Young Miss." "Let her in! Let her in! She''s our sister! the grumpy troll!" Ailing exclaimed. Butler Ma looked at Zhihao. Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Yes, let her in" Butler Ma nodded as he replied: "Yes Master" after speaking, Butler Ma immediately called the Gate guards, as he walked out to welcome the guest. ... After a few seconds, Butler Ma came back as he spoke. "Master, Your sister is here." After speaking, Butler Ma immediately left. Zhihao then looked at the woman as he spoke: "Come, sit with us." Ziyi has a straight black hair, a seductive face with a combination of a perfect professional charm, she also has a good figure that a lot of people would like to have as their girlfriend''s body, with flawless white skin and great maturity. Ziyi just looked for a bit as she nodded and walked gracefully and sat beside their mother and fathers. Ziyi then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "So you are my long lost brother?" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied: "Yes." Ailing then butted in as she spoke: "Sis! We got these cool things from brother! I think it''s a super high-tech device!" after speaking, she handed the bracelet to her elder sister Ziyi. Ziyi looked at the bracelet and sternly rejected: "I don''t need it." looking at the bracelet that''s the almost the has the same size as a plate, she felt how could that even fit in her arm as she looked at the bracelets the three of them wearing, such big difference. Zhihao sighed, then his Mother spoke. "Yi''er go try and wear it, it''s kind of magical, go on" Her mother spoke. Ziyi was gonna reject but Ailing immediately followed up. "Sis! it''s really magical, Look at our bracelets, well it looks like a bracer now, but these things came from this big bracelet!" Ziyi was wondering, how can something so big become so delicate? then she looked at Ailing as she replied: "How can that be?" Ailing immediately answered: "That''s why It''s so magical!" After speaking, Ailing pushed the bracelet to Ziyi''s hands. When Ziyi was about to wear it, then Ailing immediately stopped her as Ailing continued: "You need to do something first! come. come!" Ailing dragged Ziyi to stand up. Ailing immediately continued: "You just have to shout TransMorph!, then do you remember those anime we used to watch? you just have to pause like that!" Zhilong, Bing Bing, and Zhihao chuckles as they already figured out Ailing''s intention. Ziyi took the bracelet and returned it again as she replied: "I don''t need it, something so embarrassing, I definitely can''t do it." Ailing then kept thinking of a solution, and after a few seconds she thought of something: "Even dad and mom did it! and it''s our elder Brother''s gift!, you kept saying that you wanted to have a big brother right? why are you being so stern! you were always dreaming of having a cool Oppa right?" Ziyi immediately blushed as she rebuked: "You! why is your mouth so loose!" Ailing replied: "Ay.. Ay... Just do it! It''s our brother''s gift, after all, you don''t want to receive your brother''s first gift?" Ziyi pondered for a bit as she hmmp and then took it back and answered: "I`ll take it, but I won''t do that shameless thing" Ailing then spoke: "But the three of us did it!" as she pointed at their parents. Ziyi pondered again. Ailing then continued: "Aren''t you always seeking new things? then can you explain how something like this became fixed in our arms?" Ziyi then hesitated as she looked at the bracelet. Ailing noticed the hesitation as she continued: "You`ll get a nice feeling after that! you`ll get less exhausted!" Ziyi was now having a hard time after hearing it, what kind of thing does this bracelet do? then she looked at her parents as she asked: "Mom, Dad, was this..." Ziyi got embarrassed as she paused for a bit. Ailing was nervous now, she thought that Ziyi was gonna ask if she really would have to pose like an anime character to wear the bracelet. but it was quickly dissolved by Ziyi''s following word. "The bracelets in your hand came from this plate sized Bracelet? you guys are not joking with me?" Ziyi asked to confirm her doubt. Bing Bing and Zhilong sighed as they nodded. they wouldn''t want to be such a killjoy to ruin their young daughter''s fun too. they didn''t lie, they just answered her question. Ailing then pretended to be hurt as she asked: "Sis, do you think I`m such an evil creature to trick you? wu wu wu, I thought you love me! Wu Wu Wu." Ziyi sighed witnessing her sister''s great acting skills. "Okay, I`ll do it" Ziyi spoke, then looked at Zhihao as she continued: "Bro, don''t laugh at me kay?" Zhihao chuckled as he nodded in confirmation. Ziyi then stood up as she made a pose from sailor woman anime she watched and shouted: "TransMorph!" then she blushed as she placed the bracelet on her arms. Immediately, a light beamed from the bracelet as it morphed into a solid liquid-like material as it fitted her arms, morphing and wrapping her arms. "Beautiful" Ziyi was astounded at how beautiful the metal became liquid suddenly as it wrapped her arms and solidified again. then Ziyi heard something. "Pfft! HAHAHAHAHAHA" Ailing was laughing to herself as she rolled on the floor, literally. Ziyi then asked: "What are you laughing about?" Ailing then replied: "You didn''t really have to pose like that, it was too epic! I`m telling you it''s epic hahaha!" Ziyi blushed as she run towards Ailing and spoke: "You! Just wait for me to catch you, you dwarf!" "WAAAAAAAAAAAA!!" Ailing immediately dashed off and run as fast as she could. Ziyi was then stunned as she realized something and looked at Zhihao and asked: "Bro! how''d you did it?! wait, where did you buy such a thing?" Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "I actually just found it in some ruins." Ziyi then asked: "What does this thing do? is it a curse? Did you curse us brother?" she asked worriedly. Zhihao smiled as she spoke: "No, It''s actually a protection charm, it will prevent you guys from getting hurt and dying." Ziyi was shocked, something like that? even hundreds of billions of Money wouldn''t be enough to pay for it, but they got four from her brother? Zhihao noticed her thoughts as he replied: "Don''t worry, It''s nothing special, for my family''s safety, every money in this world lacks value" Hearing Zhihao''s words, Bing Bing, Zhilong and Ziyi immediately had tears in their eyes, they felt warm inside, the love of an elder brother towards his family. Ziyi then spoke: "Bro, can I hug you? I really dreamt of having an elder brother to protect us too" Zhihao smiled as he nodded. Ziyi immediately came forward and hugged Zhihao as she crued: "Wuuuu Wuuuu" As the eldest sister in their family, she had to bear responsibilities and couldn''t become what she actually liked, and what she wanted to do. She cried really hard until finally stopping after few minutes more. The four of them chatted for some more. ... Meanwhile, someone got lost inside the mansion after running for a while. "Hello? Is there anyone here? Uhh, can anyone bring me to the living room? Hello?" Zhihao had been to Earth for 16 hours 24minutes and 33seconds! ____________ TransMorph - Credits from amro4games (A Snail''s Wisdom) Chapter 113 Going ou Still inside Zhihao''s Mansion After a while, Ailing finally got back and sat in the living room. she got really exhausted. Zhihao started the conversation again: "I`ll be only staying here and will be traveling somewhere, I`ll come back every four days or a week, but I`ll keep up with you guys, I already told Mom and Dad about it." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ziyi became slump, she felt sad as her brother is already going to travel after they had just met. Bing Bing noticed Ziyi''s feelings as she spoke: "Ziyi, your brother is coming back, there is just some business that he needs to fix, it''s unavoidable." Hearing her mother''s words Ziyi nodded then asked: "Brother, this is your mansion right? I`ll transfer school here starting today" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Of course, you can stay here too" pausing for a bit he continued: "Actually, Mom, Dad, Ailing, would you guys live here instead?" Zhilong smiled as he replied: "Can we?" "Of course, you guys are my family after all" Zhihao replied. Tears flowed down Bing Bing''s face as she felt emotional about every single word Zhihao spoke when it came to accepting them as his family. Ziyi then spoke: "Brother, I need to go and enroll in a school here, the closer the better, would you mind if you could accompany me?" Zhihao then replied: "Of course" he then looked at the other three and continued: "Would you guys like to come?" Zhilong then replied: "It''s okay, you can accompany here, We''re kind of exhausted after all the things you showed us today" Bing Bing nodded as she continued: "Yes, Just go with her, I think she missed you just as much as we did when she hadn''t even met you before." Ziyi pouted as she replied: "It''s because you both kept telling me stories of how I have an elder brother for like since the time I understood what a brother means." Ailing then spoke: "I`m not going, I got too exhausted!" Ziyi smiled as she replied: "It''s your fault in the first place" Ailing drew out her tongue as she voiced: "Bleeeeeh!" Ziyi just smirked as she hmmp. Zhihao then spoke: "Let''s go then?" Ziyi nodded as she replied: "Okay brother." after speaking, she immediately went and walked towards Zhihao. Zhihao then spoke: "Mom, Dad I`ll be going now, Ailing you should behave yourself more, Don''t get into troubles again like that time in Hong Kong" Ailing stuck her tongue out as she acted cutely and replied: "Yes Bro! Got it!" What she didn''t understand was, what''s Zhihao''s purpose in saying that. Immediately, Zhilong and Bing Bing Looked at her as Zhihao and Ziyi walked out of the Mansion. Bing Bing then spoke: "You need to tell us what you did in Hong Kong little girl" Ailing finally realized her brother''s intention as she shouted: "Brother! NOOOO! WHY! Why did you betray me!" she shouted at the closing door as her vision darkened. ... Zhihao drove his car to the entrance and opened the door as Ziyi entered the car. Zhihao asked: "So, which school would you like to go?" Ziyi then pondered for a bit as she replied: "Brother, I think an all girl''s college would be good, do you know some university like that?" Zhihao shook his head as he replied: "Not really, well should I ask somebody else?" Ziyi then shrugged her shoulders as she answered: "Well, we don''t really have a clue so I guess we can''t do anything but do that." Zhihao then nodded as he picked up his phone and called. After a while, someone answered the call. "Hello? Zhihao?" it was Zheng Shuan''s voice. Zhihao asked: "Do you know any all girl''s college? my Sister wants to enroll somewhere here in Beijing." "Do you mean Ailing?" Shuan asked. Zhihao replied: "No, It''s Ziyi, the elder sister." Shuan wanted to meet all of Zhihao''s family to introduce herself, she thought of something immediately: "Can I come with you guys?" Zhihao then replied: "Wait, I`ll ask here" after speaking, Zhihao looked at Ziyi as she asked: "Ziyi, Shuan asked if she could go with us" Ziyi frowned as she asked: "Shuan? Uhh, well it''s okay, who is she by the way?" Zhihao touched his nose as he blushed and replied: "She''s your brother''s girlfriend" Ziyi''s eyes brightened as she quickly replied: "Sure, Sure! I''d like to meet sister-in-law!" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied: "Okay, We''ll go there." he then talked to the phone again as he spoke: "Shuan, She accepted, I`ll go in your house now." Shuan immediately smiled as she replied: "Okay! okay! I`ll prepare now" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Okay, see you" Shuan quickly answered: "Yes, see you there" after hanging up, Shuan immediately spoke to the manager. "Manager, I`ll be going home now" Shuan spoke to her manager. The manager asked wondering what happened: "What happened? is there any emergency?" Shuan then replied: "Yes, My boyfriend is going to arrive there in about 15 or 20 minutes, I`ll help him search for a university for his sister" The manager sighed as he nodded and spoke: "Okay, just stay safe" Shuan nodded as she ran towards her service. The manager sighed as he shook his head and spoke: "Haaaa, maybe in a year or less, she''ll quit working as an actress, a billionaire mom, a billionaire husband, what does she even need to work for." after speaking, the manager immediately tasked everyone to clean up the place. ... Shuan immediately arrived after only 10 minutes, then she entered the house and looked for her mom. "Mom, Zhihao will be coming to fetch me here. I`ll help them choose a university for his sister" Zheng Lin smiled as she replied: "Oh, I guess it''s Ziyi? the eldest daughter, you are already getting introduced to his whole family? not bad, not bad, go on then." Shuan blushed as she went out, after going out of the door, she saw Zhihao''s car. Zheng Shuan smiled as she ran towards the car. Ziyi was stunned when she saw Zheng Shuan, she immediately looked at her brother and asked. "Bro! the Shuan you told me is Zheng Shuan the superstar?" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Yes, what of it?" Ziyi was shocked as she thought: ''What of it? you have a superstar girlfriend, who wouldn''t be shocked!'' Ziyi immediately went out as she spoke: "Sister-in-law, I`m Ziyi, Brother''s sister" after speaking, she bowed. Zheng Shuan blushed after being called Sister-in-law by his Boyfriend''s sister. Zheng Shuan then bowed and replied: "Yes, I`m Zheng Shuan please take care of me" Ziyi replied: "Yes!, take care of me too! Let''s ride the rear seat! let''s go" Zheng Shuan smiled as they entered the car. After they had both entered, Zhihao asked: "Where do we go?" Zheng Shuan replied: "Just go straight, when we reach the Crossroad highway, take a left turn and we''ll arrive at the Lady Perfectual National All Girl''s College." Zhihao nodded as he drove the car. ... After a while, Ziyi looked at Shuan as she asked. "Sister, can we take a picture together" Zheng Shuan smiled as she replied: "Of course" Ziyi was excited as she took out her phone and took pictures together with Shuan. In a span of 5 minutes, the two of them took a picture around the number of 500 images. Zhihao sighed and arrived at the gate. The Guards immediately opened the gates as such an expensive car would definitely be someone from a rich family. after they entered the guard started the question. "Sir, you came here for?" Zhihao replied: "I`m going to enroll my sister in this school" Zhihao handed his driver''s license. The Guard nodded as he took the Driver''s license and let them continue. Zhihao parked the car and headed out. Seeing his brother going out, Ziyi smiled as she then looked at Zheng Shuan and spoke: "You guys should hold hands for as you guys are already a couple right?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she blushed through the thought of it and nodded. Zhihao opened the door as he spoke: "Let''s go" The two of them nodded as Ziyi spoke another one: "Don''t worry, I got your back sister" Getting called sister by her boyfriend''s sister really made Shuan blush a lot. she just nodded as she looked at the ground. Ziyi leads the two of them as she continuously asked for information on where to register her transfer papers. Zheng Shuan then braced her heart as she held Zhihao''s arm. after doing that She blushed and looked at the ground, Zhihao was shocked as he blushed and turned to the other way and touched his nose in his awkwardness. Then when everything is going well, they immediately heard some noises. Click! Click! Click! Click! sounds of the camera taking pictures around them sounded. Zhihao was about to withdraw his hands, thinking that Zheng Shuan will get a lot of trouble with this issue, but not to his expectation, Zheng Shuan tightened her hold in Zhihao''s arm as she felt it was going to leave her embrace. Zhihao realized this as he smiled and continued to walk. "Oh My God! Goddess Zheng Shuan holding his fiance''s hands!" "Wow!" "Woah! So that news was real!" "Her Fiance is so handsome too! Kyaa! They really look together!." "Omg! So hot! Oppa look here!" "Zheng Shuan shi look here please!" "A Pair made in heaven!" Zheng Shuan and Zhihao smiled as they both felt satisfied. Chapter 114 Shock In the University where Ziyi will be enrolling The three of them walked as Ziyi led the way as they finally found the registrar. Zheng Shuan and Zhihao followed her and proceeded with the Transfer and walked out of the office. After fixing the transfer files, they immediately went out. Zhihao spoke: "I need to make some purchases, I`ll go to a mall, would you guys like to come? if not I`ll just drop you both to rest for the day." Zheng Shuan and Ziyi spoke at the same time: "We''ll go with you" Zhihao nodded and they walked out of the Building. they immediately went to the parking lot and rode the car as they drove towards the gate of the University, but what they didn''t expect was that there were actually a lot of people blocking the gates. When the people blocking the gates saw Zhihao''s car they immediately took some photos and started a chatter among themselves. "That''s a very expensive car" "That''s the car that Zheng Shuan''s fiance have right?" "Woah! Super Rich handsome oppa!" "Give us back our goddess! NO!" "Shut up! who would you want our Goddess to be with rather than that Handsome and Rich man?" "Yeah!, Is there even anyone that matches her beauty? Would you like it if a foreigner has our Goddess instead?!" "Yeah!" "The news stated that the Zheng Family and Zhong Family had a meeting discussing their future, Is that true?" "Ajklasdjkasd" "asdaskjdhas...." They drove to the gates as a flood of people took pictures of them, luckily the Windows are fully tinted. Zheng Shuan then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "Zhihao, can I tell them that we are going out?" Ziyi then intervened: "Don''t worry sis just go on! I got your back!" Zhihao sighed hearing their conversation as he nodded. Zheng Shuan saw his nod as she blushed and smiled. Immediately she opened the windows and spoke to the crowd: "Hello everyone, thank you for always supporting me" Pausing for a bit she looked at them and continued: "Zhihao and I are officially going out, I wish you wouldn''t cause him any hard time" After Speaking, Zheng Shuan smiled at them without any pretense as she got inside the car and closed the window. When Zheng Shuan closed the window, there were no sounds that can be heard, and when they heard Zhihao''s car started, they immediately made a way for them. After Zhihao moved drove away and left the crowd. A voice in one of the crowds spoke. "Have you seen a smile as beautiful as that? that smile..." "Woah, so it''s true being in love enhances the beauty of a person" "I... I`m going to support that guy from now on too!" "Yeah! Protecting him means protecting our Goddess'' smile!" "Yeah!" And that was the time that "Anti-Hating Fiance of Zheng Shuan" was established, but that was a story for some other time. ... Zhihao then drove to MS Mega Mall as he parked his Car in the Parking lot. The three of them immediately went to the department store. Zheng Shuan then spoke: "Zhihao, I think they requested some toiletries right?" Zhihao then pondered for a bit as he remembered and replied: "Yes" Ziyi got curious as she asked: "Who are you guys talking about?" Zheng Shuan blushed as she immediately walked faster. Zhihao just smiled as he replied: "It''s Zheng Shuan''s sisters" Ziyi got confused as she remembered that Zheng Shuan is an only daughter. then she thought: ''Maybe it''s a cousin of hers'' after thinking, she immediately followed them. She saw them buying toiletries, then the next thing got her shocked Baby Items? Diapers? Baby shampoo? what? Ziyi got shocked as they kept buying things for women and babies. then thought ''Maybe her cousin is pregnant.'' She just followed them and stopped further thinking about things. After a while, Zhihao had bought about 10 carts of necessities and needed some assistance from the workers inside the mall. ... After Shopping, they immediately went to the parking lot to drop the things inside in the trunk. The Workers was shocked, can you even fit everything inside that tiny trunk?! Zhihao then handed them a $100 bill to share amongst themselves as he spoke: "You guys can go now, no need for further help" The workers smiled as they replied: "Yes sir, we''ll pick the carts afterward." they immediately walked away as they thought that someone will be arriving later. After seeing them gone, Zhihao immediately pretended to place everything inside the Trunk, to prevent from any cameras catching the scene, after putting it in the drunk he immediately sucked it inside his Interspatial Ring. Ziyi Was shocked again, after the 3rd card, she thought it would be so full that the trunk cover wouldn''t close, but her brother continuously placed them one after the other. what the hell? Ziyi then walked closer as she looked at the Trunk. Zhihao noticed it and smiled as he said: "Come here Ziyi." after speaking, Zhihao withdrew a gold bar and an Interspatial Ring he had in reserve. Ziyi nodded as she walked towards Zhihao while looking at the trunk, then was opened her eyes widely as she spoke: "Where are the things? What happened? How? What?!" Zheng Shuan sighed as she definitely has that kind of thing happened to her when she went to Zhihao''s other world. Zhihao smiled as he handed two things to Ziyi and spoke: "Here, wear this ring" Ziyi calmed down and took the ring as she asked: "It''s to big for my fingers" Zhihao replied: "It''s just like the bracelet." Ziyi then looked at the Ring as she placed it in her Pinky finger. then it immediately resized itself and perfectly fit her finger. Zhihao then continued: "Try to think that this Gold bar will go inside that Ring" Ziyi was pondering for a bit as she tried. and immediately The gold bar morphed as it was sucked inside the Ring. she was shocked as she looked at her brother then asked. "This is?" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "It''s a storage Ring" Pausing for a bit, he continued: "Try looking at the ring as you focus on the gem then" Ziyi then nodded and tried her brother''s guide. Immediately, in her mind, a wide space can be seen and there was a piece of gold bar in it!. Ziyi then opened her eyes widely as she replied: "Bro! This is so cool!" Zhihao smiled as he handed another three of them and spoke: "Give this to Mom and Dad later when we arrive, you should teach them too" Ziyi then asked: "Brother, are you from this world? are you God? Or are you a magician?" Zhihao smiled then shook his head and replied: "You can ask Dad and Mom, I told them everything, you''ll know what I am" Ziyi then nodded as she looked at Zheng Shuan and asked: "You know?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she replied: "Yeah, I think I know more than your Father and Mother, but I haven''t experienced everything yet there." "There?, Where?" Zhihao then spoke: "You`ll know someday" Ziyi then stopped every thought she had and nodded. Zhihao then smiled as he said: "Let''s go in, We''re going home now." then He looked at Zheng Shuan as he asked: "Would you go home or come with us?" Zheng Shuan smiled as she replied: "I`d like to meet aunty and uncle too" Zhihao then nodded as they rode the Car and Drove back to his Mansion. __________ Author''s Note. I`m still at work!

After arriving in the Mansion, Zhihao talked to his family and Zheng Shuan. After a while, Zhihao left them to do some purchase. Zhihao pondered for what he needed to bring in the Cultivation World. After merging with his stats, he can practically think quickly now and figured out how to enhance his kingdom further. Zhihao immediately summoned all the books and in a span of 30 minutes, he had already read about 180 books. Zhihao then immediately want to deal with his arising problems. In Zhihao''s brain processed some things. -Demon Beast''s Appearance -Mortal Citizen''s Danger -Lack of Ores, Minerals and such -Black Smithing -Resources to counter that danger -Equipping the Citizen''s but through their own effort. Zhihao''s brain racked itself as it kept continuing: ''Guns? no too suspicious to buy here those things, Swords? Shields? armor? No.'' Zhihao then was only left with one choice. Metal. Although they had better metals in the Cultivation world, It''s lacking in quantity, Zhihao wanted every civilian to have something to defend themselves at least. Zhihao immediately called the Metal Factory. Afterward, Someone answered: "Hello, How may I help you?" "I need some metals to be delivered this noon, I`ll pay an additional 30%, I am Zhihao we had a business five days ago," Zhihao spoke to finished the deal immediately. The one on the other line of the Phone immediately stood up as he thought: ''The Big Gun is back for more!'' He immediately replied. "Yes, sir! What sort of business do you wish now?" Zhihao replied: "I''d like a hundred thousand Kilos of Iron delivered to my mansion, and..." Zhihao ordered all sorts of steels he could think of in producing weapons. The man immediately Answered: "Right away sir! I already wrote everything! we''ll Immediately go there and deliver your items!" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay, As soon as possible please." after that, he hung up the phone. Zhihao walked towards the Living room after. ... After arriving in the Living room, he chatted for a while with them. Then Zhihao broke an issue with them: "Dad, Mom, I`ll be going in the Afternoon, I might be gone in a week or more, you guys can stay here if you want, I don''t know how long I`ll be gone for this time, but I`ll definitely come back to see you all" Zhilong and Bing Bing smiled sadly as they nodded. Zheng Shuan then interrupts: "Can I go with you again?" Zhihao shook his head as he replied: "You know the situation there, You can''t, maybe until I settled everything." The three of them nodded. Ziyi then spoke: "Bro, please just come back safe okay? I don''t know what you are doing, But I`ll wait for you! You need to see my wedding if I ever had one in the future, Okay?" Ailing then added: "Me too! Bro! My wedding too!" Zhihao nodded at the both of them as he smiled and replied: "Don''t worry, I wouldn''t miss it for the world." Zhihao then walked out as he sensed the Delivery trucks arriving one by one. then he spoke: "I`ll be going out now then." His Family and Zheng Shuan nodded. Zhihao walked to Butler Ma when he reached the Entrance, he then spoke: "Butler Ma, This is $10,000 treat them all to some restaurant don''t leave anyone, even the guards, then come back after you guys ate your fill." Butler Ma was shocked as he nodded and answered: "Yes Master" After answering Butler Ma immediately walked as he called all of the staffs and the guard. Butler Ma was happy, being treated like this by their Master is definitely one hell of a blessing. Zhihao wouldn''t want any of his staffs inside the Mansion to see him making things vanish into thin air. Zhihao walked to the Gate as he the Contractor greeted him. "Boss, We got everything ready! where do you want it unloaded?" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "You guys arrived here really early, the Same place" the Contractor replied: "Anything for you boss, your generosity in choosing our company is the biggest deal we''ve had, even if we combine all the past transactions we had." after saying that He immediately got his walky-talky and ordered his men. Zhihao nodded and let them through the gates. It was seriously like an adrenaline rush for all the men right now, they heard how magnanimous this guy is from their co-worker, getting a slice of that pot money would definitely be a good thing for them. even the drivers joined in unloading all the things. After just 45 minutes, everything was already unloaded. Zhihao was shocked as he asked inside himself: ''Were these guys on steroids!?'' *Ding!* =No, they are only inspired by your previous generosity by handing money for them. Zhihao frowned as he replied: "Did I ask you?" *Ding!* =Nope, but you are too oblivious to such thing, even though your intelligence has already been upgraded to something great, your lack of common sense is still bad. Zhihao sighed, this guy definitely wants to get even with him. Zhihao then ignored the system as he walked towards the Contractor, but before he could, a notification popped up. *Ding!* =Hmmp! noob! Zhihao''s veins immediately bulged up as he wanted to go berserk with this system. Zhihao then looked at the Contractor as he spoke: "Thank, It''s all finished then?" The Man replied: "Of course sir, everything has been unloaded out of the truck!" pausing for a bit, he asked his men: "Right boys?" "Yes!" Zhihao sighed as he took the receipt, a total of $980k USD. Zhihao then replied: "You guys bought your Card reader I presume?" The Man replied: "Of course sir, here" He immediately handed the card reader to Zhihao. Zhihao finished the transaction as he pretended to pull a stack of bill inside his coat. "Here''s 50k, you guys can divide it amongst yourselves" After hearing Zhihao''s words, every one of them smiled from ear to ear, there were 120 of them here, even if their boss gets half of those, they''ll still get a lot. worth a whole month of their salary. The Man received the money as he spoke: "Thank you, sir, this will be divided fairly between my workers!" Zhihao nodded as he waved his hands. The Man bowed as he talked to his Men: "No one is going home not drunk tonight! $45K will be yours! treat yourself to some alcohol tonight! you guys get three days rest! Starting tomorrow! Let''s get partying!" "Yeah!" his men were wild right now, they got roughly 350+ USD, even after they spend some of it on alcohol. They immediately went back in their trucks to return it to the company and have a drink. ... Zhihao then went to his backyard and placed all the metals in his 4 Interspatial Ring. After that Zhihao walked towards his family. Zhihao brought his Father, Mother, and Zheng Shuan in his room. Zhihao then asked the System: ''How many time left?'' *Ding!* =1 minute, 24 seconds left Zhihao sighed as he looked at his Parents and Shuan. he then spoke. "I only have a minute left until I return. I`ll come back sometimes, but I`ll be a little busy on the other side. I hope you guys take care of yourself." after speaking, Zhihao immediately walked forward as he hugged his Father and Mother. Zhihao then spoke: "I`ll come back, take care of your health okay?" Zhilong and Bing Bing nodded as they teared up. Zhihao smiled at them then looked at Zheng Shuan: "I`ll see you the next time I come back here" Zheng Shuan nodded as she walked and held his hands. Shuan immediately replied: "I`ll miss you, please come back safely" after speaking, Zheng Shuan tried to hug Zhihao but then,A barrier immediately surrounded Zhihao as it lightly pushed Zheng Shuan away. *Ding!* =A barrier has been summoned to prevent further loopholes being exploited. Time''s up. Zhihao was shocked as he looked at Zheng Shuan when he wanted to hug her too. Then a Scar in the ground appears as it swallowed him whole. Zheng Shuan immediately teared up as she slumped in the ground. Zhilong and Bing Bing were shocked as that black scar-like thing appeared and swallowed their son. They asked Shuan: "What happened?" Zheng Shuan then calmed herself down as calmly replied: "That was the thing you use to go to his world" Zhilong and Bing Bing nodded in understanding. ... Zhihao Appeared in the cultivation world as he looked on the Horizon, but he was shocked to see something that is currently happening. The invaders are having a war with his Eternal Royal Guards! A War has broken out! Chapter 116 The Empires First War Above the Eternal Glory Kingdom. Zhihao was about to take action then he halted his flight. Zhihao immediately scanned with his spirit sense to detect the movements of his subordinates and enemies. It seems like they are doing great without his help, but although there aren''t any casualties yet since the battle had only started, there is no formation within the whole of his army, they are just flying towards the enemies as they clashed. This looked messier than his toilet room from his previous life. Zhihao thought of the Books he read and checked what''s the greatest strategy to be used in this situation. Zhihao immediately transferred his spiritual energy to his vocals as he shouted. "ETERNAL ROYAL GUARDS!" "Heavenly Establishment Realm Retreat and cover your comrades in the front!" "All Divine Origin Realm and higher go in front and begin the clash as others retreat!" "My Twenty Direct Disciples! Handle the Transcendent Beings!" "Ying Mai! Provide assistance to the area that''s Getting pushed!" After they heard Zhihao''s words, all of them smiled as they replied: "Yes LORD!" The Morale that Zhihao had given them was enough to boost their strength two folds. When everything is becoming stable and is steadily gaining momentum, Zhihao then continued "Ying Mai! Battle Arc!" Ying Mai immediately replied: "Yes My Lord!" Immediately, Ying Mai summoned the Battle Arc as it provided additional power to fire type skills of everyone that Ying Mai deemed her ally. Zhihao watched as they fought back and gained the upper hand. Zhihao then can see that although they were gaining the upper hand, there were a lot of his men getting injured. He immediately commanded. "Royal Army! Take the Injured to the base! Leave no one behind! get them treated immediately!" The Royal Guards that felt dismayed as they couldn''t do anything but watch as their comrades fight for them, and now that Zhihao had commanded them, They immediately felt their hearts beat fast as their will burned brighter like a sun, and they replied: "Yes Lord!" After replying, all hundreds of thousands of Royal Guards immediately went to action as they rescued their fallen comrades. Zhihao then thought for a bit, then looked at Ying Mai battling the enemies with the Help of his direct Disciples. Zhihao then spoke. "Ying Mai! As my Celestial General lead the whole army to Victory, Failure is not an option!" Ying Mai''s eyes burn with passion as she replied: "As your will commands my Lord!" Ying Mai felt happy, that she got her Lord''s order and felt like as a Celestial General, She would have to lead more battles like this in the future. Ying Mai looked around for a while as she started to think of some things to turn the side. Zhihao then did the same as he thought: ''It would be good to focus somewhere'' Ying Mai had the same thought as she ordered: "All Heavenly Establishment Realm experts! Go and push the right side of the battlefield!" She looked at the Eternal Royal Guards as she ordered again: "Left part of the Royal Eternal Guard! do not Engage in attack! Focus on defending!" Zhihao then pondered as she remembered this kind of Strategy and thought: ''The Crab pincer''s Strategy, looks the same, standing their ground as the other side completely overwhelmed the enemy until they trap the enemies to their left and exterminates every enemy on sight. Not bad, Not bad at all." Zhihao then pondered and thought: ''If she focused on the middle, It would be a Mess as the power would be divided in two, A good Idea indeed.'' Zhihao then saw a familiar silhouette in the sky as he spoke: "Rah? I forgot you were still alive" Rah looked at Zhihao as he replied: "Retreat! This is a lost war!" after ordering, Rah immediately fled Hearing their commander in charge spoke, The Lokratiz Soarans immediately retreat, although only 1/6th of their previous number was left alive. Seeing their retreating figure, Zhihao nodded in Approval of this first war for his Eternal Glory Kingdom. Zhihao then thought a phrase that he read in one of the books, "In a hundred war, there would definitely be some loses too" After thinking for a while, Zhihao looked at the running silhouettes around 100,000 citizens, he pondered, and thought: ''Mortals?'' *Ding!* =... Zhihao asked the system: ''Is something wrong?'' *Ding!* = Don`t mind me, It''s not my place to intervene with this, It is your fate, and fate it is yours to handle. Zhihao thought that the system is hiding something, he just shook his head, The system must have something that he just can''t take. Zhihao then commanded: "Take those mortals to enter the Empire!, all of you assist your comrades inside! Especially the heavily Injured ones." Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai in the distance as he spoke: "Ying Mai report to me of the events that happened!" Ying Mai immediately replied: "Yes My Lord!" she immediately went close as she continued. "Lord, we saw those mortals running from the invaders heading to your Empire, as such we deemed it fit to protect the weak and engage the enemies" Zhihao nodded but when he remembered the System''s weird behavior, he kept thinking of some other possibilities, then there is a word that came into his head: ''Spy?'' Zhihao then ordered Ying Mai: "Ying Mai, Heed my orders, No one of those mortals can Enter the Kingdom, But I permit them to establish a village near us" Zhihao thought that if his assumption was wrong, he''ll be killing those innocent people if they sent them away. "Yes My Lord!" Ying Mai was about to leave but then Zhihao continued. "Give them something to eat for a month, and materials to make their Village." Ying Mai smiled as she replied: "Yes My Lord" she immediately flew away to carry out Zhihao''s orders. Zhihao looked at the way the Lokratiz Soarans ran away as he spoke in a Low tone: "I hope my intuition is wrong" ... Somewhere far away. someone spoke to the Air. "Observers, had they fulfilled their purpose?" "!@*(! !@#!*#$*%#$% ! @#$*@" The Silhouette smiled as he spoke: "Not entering, but still being beside them helps too." The Silhouette retreated as his face gleamed viciously. Chapter 117 A Mysterious Cave Zhihao looked at the horizon as he kept pondering for a bit. After a few more minutes, Zhihao shook his head and immediately flew towards the Floating Fortress as he kept pondering of what to do with those citizens. After arriving in the Floating Fortress, Zhihao first came to his Direct Disciples. Zhihao stood in their front as he looked at them with their injuries and exhausted body. Zhihao then asked. "How was your first battle?" Hearing Zhihao''s question, all of them had an anguished face, Clearly, from not being able to help much in the battlefield, they became the support of Ying Mai instead. To Zhihao, it was their first time not answering, but he didn''t mind as he already knew what their answers would be. he then continued. "What do you need to do then? just let your uselessness in today''s matter drag you down?" They immediately looked at Zhihao as they awoken from their despairing stupor, they gritted their teeth wanting to answer: ''What could we have done!'' but they immediately swallowed it, because when Zhihao came, they actually became useful in the least. Zhihao sighed as he replied: "I`ll postpone your mission today it will be adjusted tomorrow, Rest for now, the only way for you guys to over weaknesses is making your mistakes your stepping stones for power." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they nodded and replied: "yes Lord" Zhihao then nodded as he left his final words: "You all, are my first twenty Direct Disciples, I don''t know if I`ll take a few more but just remember something." Zhihao paused as he looked at his Disciples. he then continued. "Remember Who your Master is, and which status do you belong under him." After speaking, Zhihao then walked out towards the Fortress. Hearing Zhihao''s words, their will and determination Ignited again. Ma Dong then poured cold water when he saw their fighting spirit then said: "Determination isn''t enough, Even if you guys have talents, put Hard work above all else!" Hearing Ma Dong''s words, they nodded as they replied: "Yes Senior Brother" After replying to Ma Dong, They immediately scattered as they found their place and started to cultivate. ... When Zhihao returns to his room, He saw his three wives and two sons playing a game of tag. Zhihao smiled at them as he spoke: "I`ve already bought the things you guys wanted." after speaking, Zhihao withdrew all the necessities from his Interspatial Ring. Ning''er nodded as she placed all of them in her Interspatial Ring, she''ll drop them off at their Baby''s sleeping room. Zhihao smiled at them as he replied: "Thank you all, for helping me in tempering my subordinates." Zhihao knew that with Verushka''s help, they would''ve slaughtered their way through all the enemies. Ning''er shook her head as she replied: "It was Veru that forced us to not to help, she said that It''ll help them improve with real life-threatening events to occur, we were about to help them, but she just stopped us and explained." Verushka snorted as she replied: "Hmmp, If you don''t let them do things on their own, they''d be cultivating poles, in the end, powerful masters, yet can only be called powerful, and not skilled." Verushka paused for a bit as she continued. "Those kinds of subordinates are not needed by Zhihao." Xiao''er and Ning''er sighed as how strict Verushka is, but she really made a point as there is a thought that flashed in their heads. ''What if we couldn''t handle our enemies?'' ''what would happen to Zhihao if he encounters someone stronger than him and needed someone''s aid'' ''And if by that time, us three isn''t enough, what would happen by then?'' All sorts of thoughts popped into their head when they heard Verushka''s explanation by then. Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Thank you Veru." Verushka smiled as she asked: "So... Where are my new Boxes?" Verushka looked at the Items when he withdrew them from his Interspatial Ring, After she scanned it, there was no box thingy! Zhihao then pondered as he asked: "Boxes?" Verushka, Xiao''er, and Ning''er raised their hands with the Phone in their hand, that''s currently charging in their power bank. Zhihao smiled at them as sweat poured from his forehead and back. Ning''er and Xiao''er smiled as they shook their head. they know what will happen if Verushka didn''t receive her gifts. Verushka then glanced at Zhihao as she spoke: "You didn''t buy any, That''s still good, just remember to buy one when you returned." The Three of them was shocked at how Verushka behaved, their eyes wide open together with their mouths. Zhihao then walked forward as he held his hands in her forehead and spoke: "Are you sick or anything?" Verushka was touched as Zhihao asked this, then she realized something, Cultivators wouldn''t get sick, then a sudden realization hit her as her facial expression changed, she then spoke "Do you want to die?" Zhihao then laughed awkwardly as he tried to pacify her anger. The four of them talked for a while. Then, when Zhihao is about to leave, Ning''er spoke to him. "Ah! Husband, there was a report that I find hard to approach." Zhihao then nodded as he replied: "What''s it about?" Ning''er then answered. "The first one is, the appearance of countless unknown species, the one that you brought Butler Ma to, they had started Appearing, but right now, there were only the Weak ones that were discovered, And the second one is..." She paused for a bit before continuing. "It''s a cave, near one of the invader''s base, The scouts reported it as It seemed like a normal cave, but when they entered inside, there seemed to be no end to the numbers of tunnels inside." Zhihao pondered for a bit as he replied: "Something like a Maze?" Ning''er nodded and spoke: "Yes, It seemed like that, The scouts reported that they didn''t want to enter in case they get lost, but they scanned with their senses and in a 10KM radius, but they couldn''t sense the end of the cave." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "I`ll check it myself, I can''t have you guys go with me, you three will be staying here." Zhihao figured out that they would want to follow him so he immediately prevented them in case they insist. The Three of them sighed as they nodded, they knew how their husband is, as such they didn''t force the matter anymore. Zhihao then spoke: "I`ll be going now, The three of you take care of things here while I`m gone, and oh in this Interspatial Ring, there are all sorts of metals Inside it, Make some weapons for the Normal citizens of the Empire, sell them for protection purpose." The Three of them nodded as Zhihao walked out of the room. Chapter 118 I Want i Leaving the Fortress, Zhihao looked at the Training Grounds. Zhihao walked towards the Disciples Training ground as he pondered for some things he needed to do. Zhihao saw Ma Dong and the rest of his Disciples Cultivating within the grounds. Zhihao then spoke. "I`ll be leaving for a while, Ma Dong, You`ll handle the mission tomorrow if I haven''t come back in time you`ll start it Immediately." "You guys will have your lunch with your loved ones, It would be like spending the Last time of your Lunch with your father, or The first step you`ll take to become stronger Individually or in Groups, Hone yourselves." The Direct Disciples immediately stood up as they replied: "Yes Master!" Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong: "Leave your wills to someone you can trust, and Task that person to give their wills to each of their families After a year and a Month''s time had passed, This mission of Yours will last for a Year''s time!" Ma Dong nodded as he dedicatedly looked at Zhihao. he then spoke. "Master, I Promise you, that I won''t be disappointing you." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "I`ll leave everything to Fate itself, I hope all of you survive this ordeal" After speaking Zhihao immediately flew towards the Adventurer''s Guild to ask the location of the Cave. ... When Zhihao arrived at the Adventurer''s Guild, everyone immediately greeted him. "Lord!" as they bowed respectfully. Zhihao nodded and asked the Guild''s Manager. "Where''s the information for the Location of the Cave?" The Guild manager Immediately looked at the Files as he lifted one and handed it to Zhihao and replied: "Lord, This is the Information that we recorded from the report." Zhihao nodded as he scanned through the files. After a few seconds, Zhihao Returned it to the Manager as he spoke: "Thank you" then he immediately walked out of the Adventurer''s Guild not waiting for their response. ... Zhihao flew towards the Direction in the Description he had read. Zhihao got bored, then he asked the system: "You are being weird lately, is there something going on?" After speaking, Zhihao immediately heard a notification. *Ding!* =I don''t really know myself, I just feel like I should train you as fast as possible" Zhihao sighed as he replied. "Would it be something big?" *Ding!* =For sure, I had already lived for more than 100million years, but this is a first for me. Zhihao was shocked and replied: "more than 100 million years? What?!" *Ding!* =Yeah, but the Youngest amongst us is still a couple of thousand years old. Zhihao sighed with those big numbers. Zhihao then asked for something else: "Why did you choose me of all the people you could pick?" *Ding!* =In your human term, I guess I could only put it with the words "Gut Feeling" Zhihao sighed as he nodded. After a few more minutes, Zhihao finally arrived as he saw the base of the enemy, and near it is a big mountain. Zhihao descended down as he scanned for the location of the Cave. Zhihao quickly found the cave as he dashed towards the Cave. He pondered for a while if he should enter the cave now. then he suddenly heard a notification. *Ding!* =Ancient Powers are fluctuating inside the Cave, Warning to the host: Be careful. When Zhihao heard this he braced himself as he decided to Enter it. Zhihao walked inside the cave, and after he had walked for about 2 kilometers, there were 5 separate Entrances, Zhihao pondered for a bit then asked the system, "Which ones are the best option to Enter? Are there any traps?" *Ding!* =Unidentified place, Can''t fully scan the place. Zhihao was shocked, something a System can''t scan? Zhihao nodded and picked the middle between the five. But just after walking inside for 50 meters, Zhihao saw some silhouettes with red eyes. Zhihao immediately drew his sword. "[Heavenly Flash Sword]!" The Silhouettes saw this and immediately held their hands upward to Block the Attack, as a sound was heard. Cling! Cling! Cling! A sound of Metal clashing together was heard. *Ding!* =You`ve encountered some beings affected by the Ancient Powers special characteristics. Zhihao asked immediately: "What kind of special power?!" *Ding!* =Defense. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he Unleashed his power. "[Record of the burning world]!" Immediately, Zhihao''s Spiritual powers sparked and turned into flames, as it burned the whole area. The enemies immediately felt scared as it deals damage to them. Zhihao then looked at the Silhouette as it revealed it''s featured. Zhihao exclaimed: "Orcs?!" It was one of the creatures in the books that Zhihao had read. Zhihao frowned as he immediately used skills one after another. "[Fire ball]!" "[Heavenly Flame Descend]!" "[Linear ray]!" "[Nine tailed Lazer]!" The Orcs immediately took action witnessing the Barrage of skills as they fell one by one. They charged at Zhihao as they shout. "GRuaaah!" Zhihao immediately held two of his swords now and clashed with the Orcs. ... After a few minutes, Zhihao had killed all the Orcs. Zhihao sighed as he only realized something in the middle of their fight. The Orc''s defense is great, but they actually dealt no damage to him. Then in Zhihao''s mind, he heard a Notification. *Ding!* =They are weak creatures, Luckily, you have encountered a defensive type Ancient Power. Zhihao snickered as he smiled and replied: "I wasted a lot of spiritual Energy just to deal with this small fries, but what kind of power can give them such defensive power" *Ding!* =I can''t say anything specific, but there is only one thing I can think of. Zhihao asked: "And it is?" But after a few seconds, there was no reply from the system. Zhihao then spoke: "I want to know what it is, I`ll figure it out at the end of this maze." Zhihao then continued: "I want it!" *Ding!* =Goodluck. Chapter 119 Struggle Inside the Maze/Dungeon Zhihao proceeded after Dealing with the Ogres. He sometimes encounters some other creatures, some are in a group, while there are also individuals. Zhihao lost count of the Time he had spent inside the Cave. Zhihao asked the system: "How long has it been?" *Ding!* =Four days and three hours. Zhihao sighed but still continued walking forward. He then continued to ask some more questions since, the System is the only one he could talk to, to relieve his boredom. "So, How long have I traveled inside this Maze like Dungeon?" *Ding!* =8,175KM in estimation. Zhihao shook his head as he immediately Dashed forward, but then, a light suddenly appeared in his vision. Zhihao smirked as he rushed forward immediately. But then, what Zhihao thought to be an exit was something he couldn''t imagine. A Big room appeared in front of him, the size of a big city, and what bewildered him more is that he can see hundreds or Thousands of cave entrance, he couldn''t even count anymore. Zhihao sighed as he shook his head and spoke: "I`ll return now, I can''t..." But before he could finish speaking, a notification popped up in his head. *Ding!* =You`ve entered a separated Dimensional domain, Exit had been closed. Zhihao opened his eyes wide as he spoke: "WHAAAAAT?!" ... Somewhere within the Gailea Continent. There were a group of people clashing with the Invaders, It was Zhihao''s Direct Disciples. It was a minor battle, They led some of the enemies to follow them. Ma Dong confronted the enemies as he provided cover for his juniors. There were about 10,000 enemies that had followed from the small base that they had infiltrated Ma Dong shouted: "All those weaker, form a line as you deal with the enemies, Lu Piao! Decrease their numbers from behind!" Lu Piao replied: "Yes Senior brother!" After speaking, He immediately quickened his phase and circled around the enemies rear. Ma Dong continued: "Mo Ying! Get the Exhausted to fall a bit as they rejuvenate!" Mo Ying replied: "Yes Senior!" Ma Dong then looked at the 4th in power ranking within the 20 of them and called: "Noobelist, Go assist the left side, hold down the enemies and prevent them from fully surrounding us!" Noobelist Immediately replied: "Yes Senior Brother!" After replying, he immediately supported the left side. Ma Dong looked at the surroundings as he fights the Transcendent Beings in a 2 in 1 fight. Ma Dong then Ordered. "Yanran! Support Noobelist!" Lin Yanran immediately took a recovering pill as she replied: "Yes Senior Brother!" Then one of them shouted: "Enemy reinforcements!" Ma Dong immediately looked at the arriving enemy as he frowned. he then ordered. "Everyone on defensive formation, slowly retreat! Lu Piao! Return!" "Yes, Senior Brother!" All 19 of them replied. "Create some distance! The ones in the Rear! Bombard these animals back into their world! Cover our escape!" "Yes, Senior Brother!" The 11 from the Rear replied as they bombarded the enemies with all their spells. After a while, they had made some distance, Ma Dong shouted: "Full retreat! Their reinforcement is arriving!" "Yes, Senior Brother!" All of them focused their spiritual energy and flew away as they retreated. Ma Dong looked at the enemies as they fled with all their might. They had killed almost half of them, but they were already exhausted. ... In the distance, a Silhouette is floating as he commanded: "Do not pursue further!" The invaders immediately stopped as they retreated. The one that spoke is Rah. Rah thought for a bit as he shook his head: "So you are not annihilating our forces here to train your subordinates, Training them for when our headquarters noticed what is currently happening here." Rah looked back as he flew back to their main base. he then spoke in a low tone: "Why''d our archon have to die. Now we don''t have any means to communicate the Main world." But then a smile appeared on his face as he spoke: "They should be arriving here in a year''s time, even without the communication, those assassins have to arrive here even if we didn''t contact them, we need to hold our grounds for at least that time. we''ll have our chance to survive bigger if they arrive" ... Ma Dong and the rest finally caught their breath as they slumped in the ground. Ma Dong sighed as he spoke: "We''ve improved, but it''s so tiny that we could just describe it as none." Everyone''s face sunk as they nodded, they could feel how little their improvements had become. Ma Dong then continued: "What do you guys think the best solution would be? We can''t return to the Empire until we''ve become stronger!" Mo Ying was about to talk then was stopped by Ma Dong as he said: "Let them think for now" After a few minutes, there was still no response, but when Ma Dong was about to speak, someone stood up. It was Noobelist he spoke: "We need to surpass our limits, by doing so, I think we can do some things." Ma Dong nodded and then asked: "Which things are you talking about?" Those invading enemies had some enmities now with many of the survivors from the Human Continent. Ma Dong''s group had been killing their comrades that they had shared day and night for the past two days, they wanted to confront them immediately. But with only Ma Dong''s presence within the group of Disciples, it was too intimidating in the eyes of the Invaders, so no one dared to do anything without their Transcended beings. But one could imagine that in the future, their group would be lead by Ma Dong as their great enemy if it comes to war, as more of their comrades will die in their hands. Noobelist suggested: "We have three options Senior Brother One is to separate us in a group of four or three, and we do the same things over and over again. the second one is for when we continuously spar with each other and try our improvements in the enemies, and the third one is when we fight the enemies, we''ll separate each other, Individually fighting groups of them." Ma Dong nodded in confirmation. He then replied: "We''ll do your suggestions then, the second one is what will do for three months, the third one is for 6 months, and the first suggestion is what we''ll do for three months, when that time comes, we''ll decide on the date that we''ll be meeting. Understood?" "Yes, Senior Brother!" everyone nodded as they replied. ... In the sky, someone is floating while watching them. It was Ying Mai, She sighed as she spoke in a lone tone: "I hope all of you guys survive this year, Master instructed me to watch over you and prevent Rah from intervening, but I can''t help you guys if you are about to die, I`m truly sorry" After speaking, Ying Mai immediately flew further up to cultivate as she watches them daily. Chapter 120 Acting cool Within the Mountains in a secluded place. The twenty Direct Disciples had finally recuperated. Ma Dong spoke to them. "We''ll start now, find your sparring partners." Everyone replied: "Yes Senior Brother" Ma Dong then called out. "Lu Piao, Mo Ying, Noobelist" "Yes, Senior Brother" The Three of them replied. Ma Dong then spoke immediately: "We''ll have a free for all, we''ll do our best until there is only one of us left standing" The three of them nodded as they replied: "Yes!" They flew up in the sky immediately. Ma Dong initiated the fight as he gathered his spiritual energy into his hands. Ma Dong immediately struck the three of them when they haven''t prepared themselves. Between the Three, Noobelist received the most damage as he flew a few meters away. Lu Piao and Mo Ying wanted to complain, but then they realized something. Ma Dong spoke those realizations: "In the Battlefield, no enemies will wait for you all to be ready!" Noobelist nodded as he immediately prepared to engage whoever is going to charge at him while he recovers his energy. Ma Dong immediately cast his self-made skill. "Pulverizing Smash!" The skill was aiming towards Noobelist, as he''s currently the weakest one amongst them all. Noobelist tried his best to dodge but was still hit in his legs. He swayed while flying as he tried to create big distance. Lu Piao then immediately charged towards Ma Dong as he focused his mind to blow him with lightning. "Lightning Charge! Lightning Strike!" after casting a few skills, Lu Piao disengages and engage continuously at Ma Dong. Mo Ying immediately followed up as he decided that if Ma Dong is to go down, everything would be easy afterward. After recovering for some bit, Noobelist tried to sneak some attacks between the gaps that is being created while the three of them are fighting. The four of them continued fighting with all their might. When the other 16 Direct Disciples witness the scene of their fight, their gazes burn with fighting will as they immediately clashed with their opponents. One of them spoke, It was the last one that was accepted by Zhihao as his direct Disciple. "We won''t reach anything if we continued sparring one on one!, let''s copy our Senior brothers and have a royal rumble! No sides shall be taken, the last one standing shall be the victor!" Every one of them nodded as they replied: "Yes!" After just speaking, they immediately prepared and gathered their spiritual energies detecting who to attack and where to defend from. ... Within the sky, a silhouette of a person can be seen. "That''s better, you guys will improve faster through that way" The one that spoke was Ying Mai. after speaking, she immediately went to her form as she comprehended the Will of the flames, she''s advancing faster and faster as time went by, she''s already getting close to reaching Verushka''s level too. The only orders Ying Mai received are she''s not to intervene unless someone like Rah appeared, and another one is just to observe their daily routines. But there was also an order that she received from Zhihao other than something that has to do with his Direct Disciples, It''s to watch closely the Civilians that arrived recently. Ying Mai ordered some of her subordinates to watch and observe the civilians, and closely watch them if they are doing something suspicious. ... After a while within the Mountain where the 20 Direct Disciples had sparred with each other, there were only 4 silhouettes standing. Ma Dong, Lu Piao, Mo Ying, and Lin Yanran. Lin Yanran was the one that won the battle within the Direct Disciples as she actually continued defending until they had run out of spiritual energy and fought them back one by one. Ma Dong in the other hand had already beaten the three Junior brothers of his. but Lu Piao and Mo Ying don''t want to give up as they kept standing up even after getting beaten to a pulp by Ma Dong. Ma Dong then spoke: "Still not giving up?" Lu Piao replied immediately: "I still have some Spiritual Energy left Senior brother" Mo Ying then sighed as he replied: "Well, Lu Piao, even if we joined forces, I think that Senior brother has only used 30% of his original strength, and we''re already spent just maintaining us from flying in the air." The both of them sighed as they spoke: "Senior Brother, we give up" but just after speaking, the both of them fell from the sky as they finally lost consciousness. Ma Dong sighed but then he immediately caught up to the falling two and landed them on the ground. Ma Dong then looked at the last standing Disciple within the ground while the rest of them were laying flat unconscious. Ma Dong smiled as he approached the last standing one, he walked beside her as he looked at the horizon as the stares at the dusking sun, he then muttered. "Don''t let your achievement today get in your head, there will be someone stronger than you in the wide horizon" Ma Dong waited for a response, but after a few seconds, she still didn''t speak. Ma Dong then fixed his posture to look cooler as he stood with the stomach in and chest out posture, then he continued. "Every step we take in life is a step towards our future, achievements and failures are standing side by side and in a later generation, it will help you to achieve your dreams." Ma Dong then waited for a while, but still, she didn''t respond. Ma dong thought. ''I guess she''s too overwhelmed by her achievement'' Ma Dong nodded as he continued. "Look at your three Senior Brothers over there, not to be someone bragging, but they ganged up on me! but still couldn''t touch and defeat me, and those three are stronger than you, Even though I had some trouble dealing with them, I still walked out victorious, and I`m not letting it get into my head" He didn''t wait this time as he spoke. "We''ll continue to strive towards power as we practice and temper ourselves to help our master in the future, I hope all of you can survive this ordeal, and become stronger than before." Ma Dong was about to continue when he heard a sound coming from her. "Uhnn" It sounded like a nodding one. Ma Dong nodded too as he spoke: "Reality is, we''re too weak to helm Master right now, but through more effort one day we can..." but before he could finish he heard another sound. "Uhnn, uhhnnn" Ma Dong then looked at her and found out that she had already been too exhausted and fell asleep while standing. Ma Dong was shocked then exclaimed: "You...! You...! you were sleeping?!" Ma Dong looked around as he saw no was awake. "Ahem, ahem" after coughing, Ma Dong walked towards her as they placed all of them in the ground to rest. "I just wish no one saw that" After speaking, Ma Dong sat down as he started cultivating. ... Somewhere in the sky "Kuk, hooo, Kuk! Pfft! no, I need to maintain my posture, Pfft, haha! ha! ahh! nooo! I need to maintain my posture! Pffft! nooo! that was too epic! HAhahahaha!" Ying Mai was having a laugh of a lifetime. Chapter 121 Dao Of Shame Somewhere inside the Dungeon that Zhihao went in. Zhihao tried to enter one of the Entrances, but he had been inside of it for about 6 hours already. He tried to reach the end by flaying faster. once in a while, Zhihao and the system would talk. After a few moments, Zhihao was shocked as he saw a lot of high-grade spiritual stones within the cave walls. Zhihao smiled as he withdrew a Hammer type weapon in his collection as he smashed the Cave wall. Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! A lot of horrible continues sound echoed throughout the cave. Zhihao smiled as he counted the High-Grade Spiritual stones dropping every time he destroys a part of the wall. Zhihao continued, then when he hit another part, a sound was heard different from others. "Wooom" Zhihao exclaimed: "What the hell?!" he asked in confusion as his hands are still vibrating together with his hammer. Zhihao asked the System: "What the hell happened?" *Ding!* =That''s the Domain''s Barrier, It supports the whole Dungeon. It won''t be destroyed unless the creator either removes it himself or he dies. Zhihao nodded as he understood what the system had said. he then spoke. "Okay, There''s still more walls!" ... After a few days, Zhihao had made a very big space, almost has the same size as his mansion. Zhihao sat down to rest and asked the system: "How many did we get?" *Ding!* =7,242,424 High-Grade Spiritual Stones. Zhihao smiled at the number of Spiritual stones he had gathered. then he pondered for a bit as he asked again. "How many days was I in here?" *Ding!* =26 Days 23hours 59seconds. Zhihao was shocked as he exclaimed: "That long?!" Zhihao shook his head as he walked, but then he suddenly stopped as he looked around. He contemplated for a while then he sighed, he then asked the system again. "Which direction was I heading to before? I forgot" *Ding!* =The one in your back Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Thanks!" Zhihao walked immediately to continue his journey inside one of the holes. After a few more days, Zhihao finally saw the end of the cave, It''s another big vacant room! Zhihao then walked inside as he looked around, but just when he was about to walk back to where he came, he felt some strong spiritual energy fluctuation. Zhihao released his Energy as he scanned the whole area. He then suddenly looked up as he saw something. he focused his spiritual energy in his eyes as he probes what that silhouette is. A very long creature, with hard shells, about as long as half a kilometer in length but only 30 meters in width. but then he found something interesting as he looked ahead. "Centipede?! A Giant freaking centipede? you guys got it here too?!" Zhihao was shocked, as he asked the System. "Is this guy strong?" *Ding!* =It has only been 2 months since it started its evolution It is still in Heavenly Establishment Realm, and it''s actually breaking through again, after a few weeks it will enter Divine Origin Realm, Suggesting that Host wait for that, the Materials in that creature can be made to create some good quality armors. Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Oh, right! I read in some books that they use monsters carapace to create weapons and such. That''s a good idea! I`ll wait" Zhihao sat by the side as he started to cultivate and wait for the creature to further evolve. ... Ma Dong''s party of twenty. The rest of the Direct Disciples had finally reached the limits of Divine Might''s Realm. But on the Other Hand, Ma Dong had been too focused on his cultivation the past few days. Whenever Ma Dong heard them talking about the First spar they did, Ma Dong immediately walks out as he vanished through the shadows and started cultivating far away from them. He had already reached Legendary Spirit Realm through the Dao of Shame and focused his full attention to cultivation whenever he remembers or someone broughts up the shame of what happened that time. But due to that, he found a new source of power through the Path of Shame. ... After a while Ma Dong finally came back fully refreshed. He looked around as they had already finished resting and started refilling their spiritual energies. Ma Dong then nodded as he stated: "Today, We''ll start our real mission, and that is to destroy the enemies'' bases" Everyone of them opened their eyes as wills as strong as steel immediately revealed within. Then someone asked: "Senior Brother, How many enemy bases are we going to destroy?" Ma Dong smiled as he spoke: "As Many as we can until the end of our 1 year long Mission!" Everyone of them stood up as they replied: "Yes, Senior Brother!" Ma Dong then continued: "Within an hour gather all of your spiritual energies, we''ll start immediately!" "Yes!" All of them shouted in unison as they gat back to refilling their energy. ... Within the Sky another one had finished breaking through to Legendary Divine''s Realm pinnacle. Ying Mai opened her eyes as she started to look around in all direction, she then muttered. "I reached this level for only 2 months, If master started since young, how strong is he actually?" Ying Mai smiled as she recalled her master''s face and blushed a little. she then sighed as she said in a low tone. "Even if I can''t be together with Master, I`ll be satisfied as long as I can be by his side, I`ll follow him forever." Ying Mai vowed inside her heart as she immediately dropped tears from her eyes to her hand and spoke. "This tears shall be my love, and the fire that will burn it will be my Master''s given power to me, I Shall vow to the heavens with these tears as a vessel of my feelings and only Master can have or release it!" After speaking, the sky had turned dark as 24 lightnings had struck her hands. Immediately, The liquid tears turned into crystal like gems. Ying Mai then burned those tears, but it didn''t crack or anything, It just vanished from her hands together with the fire. Ying Mai then felt her something Missing in her heart as she nodded. What Ying Mai did was a ritual for sealing one emotion from a person. Ying Mai sighed as she sat in a cultivation position and continued cultivating. Chapter 122 These ones are tough Somewhere in the sky, twenty floating silhouettes were rushing. It was Ma Dong''s group. they are ready to start their Mission in destroying enemy bases. Ying Mai followed them from a greater distance as she observed their improvements. Ma Dong and the rest finally reached their Destination, he immediately commanded. "Start the battle! Bombard these filthy things back to their home planet!" After Ma Dong had spoken, all of them shouted together as they bombarded the enemy base. "Ha!" After bombarding, Ma Dong immediately ordered: "Draw your swords! Confront those b*stards!" They immediately went and charged as they clashed with the enemies. It immediately became a fight of 20 vs 100,000 as enemies kept coming out of their base. The 19 Direct Disciples was led by Mo Ying, Ma Dong left the commands to him so that he could focus on fighting the Transcendent Beings. Ma Dong immediately looked towards any enemies he could confront so that his Junior Brothers and Sisters could continue their momentum. ... Within some other base, a silhouette is watching some images in the hologram. "Send at least ten Transcendent beings! We just need to stall them from wrecking our bases! We need to hold on until the HQ notice our situation." "Yes, sir!" Immediately they scattered as It is Rah, He currently has no choice but to just watch, ever since they started fighting Zhihao''s Disciples, he wanted to kill them immediately, but there''s someone preventing him from engaging the battle. Rah adjusted the hologram towards the sky as he zoomed its focus. There was a silhouette standing in a ship, and it looked like it''s directly looking at him. After a while, the woman smiled and muttered something as the hologram immediately shuts down. Rah gritted his teeth as he slumped down his chair. ... Ma Dong and his party of Disciples had finally broken through to their base. Ma Dong noticed that inside the base is actually full of four-legged invaders, maybe it''s their line of defense for when the enemies had actually broken through to reach their base. Ma Dong immediately cautioned them. "Careful of those four-legged invaders, We don''t know their strength!" "Yes!" They immediately slow downed their phase as they approached the enemy''s base. Ma Dong and the rest slowly closed the gap between them, and in just a moment, they saw the middle body of the four-legged invaders opened as energy gathered in it as it released a plate-sized beam of energy. Ma Dong immediately shouted: "Brace yourself!" Immediately all of them formed a defensive energy. and in just a few seconds, the energy collided with their barrier. Booom! Boooom! Booom! Ma Dong was slightly shocked, although it''s power is not that big, but they are releasing it faster than two humans shooting arrows! their shields can''t hold for an hour if this continues. Ma Dong pondered for a bit as he smiled, he then spoke to Mo Ying: "Take command! Mo Ying!" Mo Ying was about to ask but with the current circumstances, he could only just reply: "Yes Senior Brother!" Hearing this, Ma Dong immediately dove down towards the Pyramid like structures as he gathered his spiritual energy in his whole body. Ma Dong has the toughest body within all of them as he practiced the Art that Zhihao had given him the Titan Blood Vein Art. Ma Dong for the first time after so long felt his blood bumped as he became over-excited, his blood pumped harder as his veins enlarged further providing him with a lot of boost towards his Spiritual energy. Ma Dong smiled but the smile was too evil caused by his face''s characteristics, although when he smiles, he looked like a messiah, but when his smile out of excitement was revealed, it looked very sinister, like a god of death is smiling at you. "HAAA!" He finally reached one of them as Ma Dong smashed the four-legged invader''s mouth. afterward, he immediately went to the other one as he ripped the limbs out of them. blue colored blood splashed as Ma Dong killed them one by one. Ma Dong regained his calm after feeling satisfied, he then looked at his Junior Brothers and Sisters as he shouted: "They have great firepower but lacks defensive power! Obliterate them!" After hearing Ma Dong''s words, they immediately replied: "Yes, Senior Brother!" after replying, they immediately dove down towards the enemies dodging the energy balls. "Argg!" one of the female Disciple took a direct hit in her body and was slightly damaged thanks to the uniform. Lu Piao heard this as he immediately caught to the female and led her down. Lu Piao immediately replied: "Recuperate your energy, join us afterward!" The female Disciple is named Ying Yalan, she replied: "Yes, Senior Brother" she immediately took a pill for recovery as she circled her spiritual energy. Lu Piao nodded as he went back to support the fight. After just a few seconds, Ying Yalan rushed towards the enemy''s base. The twenty of them sliced and diced the enemies, while Ma Dong smashed them as he splits their bodies in half. But then the Largest Pyramid structure''s top opened, and more than 3,000 spaceships flew out of it. Ma Dong noticed it as he immediately flew towards the Direction as he fired his energy towards them. "Boooom!" A large sound echoed through the battlefield as 8 of those ships went down. Ma Dong frowned, but just after his hit, the biggest ship in the middle opened its mouth as 5 sword like things floated beside it and shot some focused energy in the middle. Then at its mouth formed a humongous energy and shot it toward''s Ma Dong. Ma Dong only had a few seconds to react as he focused his energy to solidify his body and dodged. Ma Dong dodged the focused energy as he smiled and said: "These ones are tough" The group of 19 stopped at what they are doing when they noticed the huge Spaceship, they smiled when they saw that their Senior Brother, Ma Dong dodged the laser-like thing. but then their smile froze as they saw the huge amount of blood dropping out of Ma Dong body. Ma Dong gritted his teeth as he looked at his side, in his body a 1/4 of a plate''s size was removed near his stomach. Chapter 123 Conclusion Back to where they Ma Dong''s group of twenty were fighting. Ma Dong gritted his teeth as he looked at the Giant Spaceship, then immediately warned his Juniors. "Stay alert!" But after speaking, Ma Dong heard some noise coming from his Juniors. "ARGGG!" "GRAAA!" "GUAAAH!" They were attacked when they removed their focus on the enemies. Ma Dong was about to look but then he resisted as he took a pill and immediately charged towards the Giant Spaceship. But when he''s about 250 meters close, the other spaceships immediately went to support their Mothership and focused fire on Ma Dong as they delay his approach. Some of the Disciples covered the injured as they obliterated the enemies approaching them, while the others directly clashed with the enemies and tried to clear a big space for them. Mo Ying shouted: "Noobelist! Go take command!" after speaking, he didn''t wait for his answer as he immediately went towards Ma Dong. Lu Piao immediately blasted off as he also went to support Ma Dong. Mo Ying and Lu Piao immediately went beside Ma Dong as they spoke: "Senior Bro! We''re here!" Ma Dong being in the predicament almost lost his will to fight, but seeing his two juniors suddenly smiled as he shouted: "To die here, or to live is one of our trials! Get your sh*ts together you Brats!" The Three of them smiled as they blitz their way through the surrounding Spaceships. Lu Piao and Mo Ying provided cover while Ma Dong charged his Spiritual Energy as he wanted to finish this Giant Spaceship in a single blow. Lu Piao grinned as he wildly let his spiritual energy explode, he cast a skill. "Lightning Emperor''s Glorious Road!" It was a skill that Lu Piao was cultivating before, but this is something he could only use once in a battle, He unleashed his last skill which drains almost all of his Spiritual energy. Immediately a cage like lightning that leads from their position towards the Giant Spaceship was formed as it blocked all entries, from outsiders. All the spaceships that hit the barrier that was made by Lu Piao were immediately destroyed as it exploded and turned to ash. Mo Ying smiled as he roared and used his final skill too. "Flaming Heavenly Arrows!" Immediately, thousands and thousands of round flames emerge as it turned into sharp flames covered the whole area. Mo Ying then roared as he shouted: "Seeker!" Immediately the arrow looking flames blitz as it followed all the spaceships. "Boom! Boom! Boom! After a while, more than half of the enemies spaceships were destroyed. After finishing their skills, the two of them, Lu Piao and Mo Ying lost consciousness as they fell from the sky. Ma Dong exclaimed as he shouted: "Your efforts shall not be in wasted!" "GRAAAAAAA!" Ma Dong shouted to at the top of his lungs as he charged forward with his fully focused Spiritual energy in his fist. When Ma Dong reached 10 meters, he lifted his fist towards the Giant Spaceship, he then clashed from the Energy Barrier of the ship. Ma Dong was shocked but then gritted as he shouts. "BREAK FOR ME! GRAAAA!" Ma Dong crushed the barrier as he fists collided with the Giant Spaceship. Ma Dong immediately went through to the whole giant spaceship as it exploded. He smiled as he looked towards the sky, as he spoke. "It was a good fight, hahaha, Master! Please protect my family!" After shouting, he immediately lost his consciousness and was engulfed by the explosion. Noobelist saw everything as his eyes were wet with tears, the enemies had started retreating, and all of their workers started to evacuate. he then ordered. "Everyone who''s free save Senior Brother Mo Ying, and Senior Brother Lu Piao! I`ll go find Senior Brother Ma Dong!" "Yes Senior Brother!" the ones that were vacant immediately answered as they rushed. ... In the sky, someone is actually shaking as she clenched her fist and gritted her teeth. Ying Mai wanted to help them, but Zhihao ordered her to observe unless someone much more powerful than all of them came. She then looked at the escaping enemies as she immediately went towards their direction. When Ying Mai had figured out that she was finally out of their sight, Ying Mai started her slaughter, there were still at least 2,000 ships, more than 30,000 soldiers and a couple of hundreds of thousands of workers. but through her rage, it immediately ended within a Single Minute. "I''ve eradicated them, I wish you all to improve further with these guys as my offering to your growth, you guys won your first battle." After speaking, Ying Mai immediately went back to her battle Arc as she observed in the sky. ... Somewhere within the Dungeon, a Silhouette was walking. Zhihao slumped as he asked the system: "Hey, Can I return to Earth while I`m stuck at this Dungeon?" *Ding!* =Due to the special restriction, you could only go there for about 6 hours. Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Can you notify me if it''s the Afternoon on Earth? I`d at least like to spend those times when them." *Ding!* =Got it. "Thanks" Zhihao replied with a sad expression on his face. Zhihao was expecting a good fight but he waited for another Month just to one slap a monster to death, he was too sad after that as he collected its carcasses, and its meat is even poisonous so he left it to rot there. Zhihao grumbled as he now lacks motivation. After a while, he finally came back to his starting point and marked the one he had just finished. He then picked up the smallest hole out of curiosity and immediately entered it while crawling. *Ding!* =You could''ve just smashed the walls so you didn''t have to crawl. Zhihao was shocked as he replied: "Ah! That''s right!" Chapter 124 Prisoners Within the enemy base, 19 silhouettes can be seen Noobelist slumped as he flew back to them, he couldn''t see their Senior Brother''s body anywhere. It was supposed to be a Victory celebration, but with all the sudden unforeseen events that had unfolded, they couldn''t do anything at all, and they even lost their Senior brother Ma Dong. Mo Ying finally regained his consciousness as he looked around and asked. "Where is Senior Brother Ma Dong?" Everyone''s face darkened as they shook their head. Mo Ying gritted as he spoke: "All of you recuperate, we''ll guard this base and make it our frontal base as we destroy all of the enemies bases. Senior Brother Ma Dong wouldn''t like your faces right now, he might ridicule your faces if he sees you! calm yourself! Senior Brother Ma Dong is definitely alive." Everyone''s faces immediately calmed as they nodded and refilled their Spiritual energy. Lu Piao is still unconscious as he had overexerted his Spiritual Energy and is most likely in a state of coma. ... Somewhere within the Dungeon. Zhihao had been walking inside the caves. Zhihao then asked the system: "How many entrances have we been to?" *Ding!* =A total of 1,846 Entrances. Zhihao sighed as he chose another one and entered it. Zhihao dashed towards another cave entrance as he used his spiritual energy. After just a few hours, Zhihao finally reached the end as he saw a big silhouette of a something like a snake, but it''s actually longer than the Centipede he met before. Then the Silhouette looked at Zhihao as it spoke. "Human?" Zhihao was stunned as he never met one that could actually speak. Zhihao replied: "Snake?" *Ding!* =It''s an evolved beast, An Eastern Dragon that had just broken through to the first of its stage. The dragon slowly started to float up as it looked at Zhihao like seeing its prey. Zhihao asked the system: "It''s the most valuable one we got so far right?" *Ding!* =Correct! Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "I`ll be getting some dragon meat today!" The Dragon frowned as it glared towards Zhihao and shouted: "Your audacity has astounded me human, I won''t be sparing your puny li..." But before the dragon could finish, Zhihao appeared in front of the Dragon as he sliced it''s head off out of its body. Zhihao clapped his hands together as he spoke: "Okay! Time to dissect this cute snake" After a few minutes, Zhihao finally separated the scales, skin, and meat from the dragon and kept it in his spatial ring. Zhihao went back to the entrance as he continued his search for the exit. ... Within the Sky, above the enemy base that Ma Dong''s party had conquered. Ying Mai is giving Ma Dong some of her spiritual energy to rejuvenate his lost energies. Ying Mai was shocked as she saw how fast Ma Dong''s injuries are healing, even the chipped part of his stomach had almost been fully recovered. After a While, Ma Dong opened his eyes and saw Ying Mai treating him. Ma Dong then spoke: "I guess, you saved me Celestial General Ying Mai" Pausing for a bit, he then continued: "You`ll be violating Master''s orders if you did that." Ying Mai paused for a bit as she looked at Ma Dong, she continued and spoke: "I guess you heard, well It''s not violating his order since you have already finished your battle, I`m only helping out a little." Ma Dong then nodded as he replied: "Thank you Celestial General." Ying Mai nodded as she replied: "No problem, you should return to them, they are feeling very sad when you suddenly vanished after all." she stopped her Spiritual Energy after speaking, Ma Dong had already recovered 5% of his energy and 95% of his current physical body. Ma Dong nodded as he replied: "Yes Celestial General" Ma Dong immediate stood up as he bowed and flew down. Ying Mai nodded and immediately. "Pffft! hahahaha! Pffft! That was too hard! Ah ah! at least I could hold it off until he''s gone, arrg, my stomach huhu noo! ahhh hahaha pfft!" Ying Mai laughed as whenever she sees Ma Dong she could still remember what happened a few months ago. ,,, Ma Dong descended from the sky as he saw his Juniors. Ma Dong smiled as he shouted: "What the hell are you guys being so sad about? did someone die?" The 18 of them immediately looked at the sky as they saw Ma Dong''s figure descending from the sky. Immediately, all of them cried as they rushed towards Ma Dong and embraced him, Ma Dong was like their second father, as he was the one that would always take care of them. Ma Dong smiled as he laughed and spoke: "Hahaha, there, there, it''s all over, for now, we shall celebrate, but not too much, we''ll conquer more and more of their bases, It''s been 2 months now!" "Yes, Senior Brother Ma Dong!" Ma Dong smiled at them, but suddenly, he looked towards the Giant Pyramid, beside it, there was a big dome-like structure. Ma Dong immediately spoke: "Follow me!" Seeing Ma Dong became serious, they immediately removed their previous mood and became serious as they followed Ma Dong. Ma Dong immediately crushed the walls and became shocked of what''s inside. "There were humans here!" The people inside were shocked and got scared for a second, then they realized that it was a human cultivator, they immediately exclaimed. "We''re finally saved!" "Oh thank you, great heroes!" "We owe you our lives!" "..." A lot of noise was heard after they realized that they were finally saved. Ma Dong frowned as he asked: "What were you guys doing here?" One of them spoke, a man in between the age of 40s to 50s. "We were captured here, and we did some things to us that we couldn''t understand, but after it, they just locked us here." Ma Dong looked at their figure and signs of malnourishment can be seen in just a single glance. Ma Dong spoke: "Share our rations to them!" "Ming Yi go and give them some foods, lead them out!" Ma Dong ordered. "Yes, Senior Brother." Ming Yi replied Ma Dong then shouted: "the rest of you, follow me! Let''s free the rest of them!" After speaking, he immediately went inside. "Yes Senior brother!" everyone followed Ma Dong as they went inside. Ma Dong gritted his teeth as he spoke in a low tone: "How dare they imprison our people! They''ll pay for this!" Chapter 125 A Snail? Inside the Dungeon. Four years has already past as what Zhihao thought to be just a casual walk in the park made him stuck for years. Zhihao had been going to back to Earth at least 6hours per month to restock some food, the stocks of food he reserved had already been fully consumed by then, as such, he bought a lot of canned goods from the MS Mega Mall. Zhihao is at the entrance again as he pondered for a bit and spoke to the system. "There''s only 24 left, so where should I go? System, do you want to pick this time? you haven''t picked even once." *Ding!* =I guess, I`ll pick for now. Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Go on then." *Ding!* =I Don''t want too, I changed my mind. Zhihao sighed as he replied: "Still as grumpy as always, Okay, I`ll go to again!" Zhihao immediately dashed forward the one he chose. After a few minutes, he had already seen the end of the Cave, but what actually surprised him was that it''s actually so big, there is also some form of seals with four pillars in it. Zhihao pondered for a bit as he asked the system: "What''s are these things?" *Ding!* =It''s a seal Created by a supreme being, maybe some from the God''s realm did this. Zhihao was shocked, God Realm? That was the epitome of power! and it''s where Yi Yan also lives. Zhihao nodded then asked again: "What type of seal is it?" *Ding!* =A type of seal that can seal even the mightiest of the gods. Zhihao was yet again shocked as he exclaimed: "Something that can seal away even the mightiest gods? How powerful is this seal then?" *Ding!* =Maybe it''s the epitome of all sealing formation, It continuously drains the power of whoever is inside it. Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "I Guess they are preparing it for someone then? there''s no one here." *Ding!* =... Hearing the notification but no words from the system Zhihao immediately became serious it could only mean one thing. there is something here, and it should be really powerful. Zhihao immediately scanned his surroundings as he focused all of his spiritual energy around the grand cave. But before he could finish, he heard a voice. "Hoo! a Living being, a demon? beast? or is it human?" The voice was thunderous as if it had come from the Gods itself, Zhihai immediately withdrew his spirit sense as he prepared to escape, but then he remembered that the whole dungeon was controlled by only one powerful source, and it might just be these ones doing. Zhihao prepared for a big fight as he drew out his swords. But before he could prepare, a powerful aura immediately burst fort as it smashed towards Zhihao. "Do you even think you could go against me?! I one of the four supreme beings of all the realms!?" Zhihao was shocked, it felt like he became an ant as a whole mountain is crushing towards him, he felt powerless for the first time in front of someone he couldn''t even see! The voice spoke again: "Do you want power? to stand amongst the top and look down even the Gods?" Zhihao pondered for a bit, then he replied: "No" "What do you mean no? do you think you can escape this labyrinth I made myself?" the voice replied. Zhihao pondered for a bit as he replied: "If it''s free I can, no strings attached, but there is something like setting you free, then no, I already got a companion." "Ohh, then how about riches? if you don''t want riches, I could also grant you this world itself!" Zhihao shook his head as he replied: "Nope, You can set me free, and I`ll try to find someone who would, what do you say?" Zhihao tried to imitate the voice as he replied. The one behind the voice immediately felt enraged as he already knew that he''s being sarcastic now. he then spoke. "I have decided, I don''t want your help anymore, I had been here for millions of years, and waiting for another one to come after you died is also an option" Zhihao pondered for a while, yes if he didn''t negotiate with this, he''ll be stuck here forever. Zhihao then sat as he spoke: "What about we trade?" The voice pondered for a bit as he replied: "Continue" Zhihao then answered: "I can help release you, but you wouldn''t harm anyone I feel you shouldn''t, and I`ll set you free." The one that the voice came from smiled as he asked: "That''s all?" Zhihao then pondered for a bit as he replied: "You`ll be my one of my men until I die of natural cause, Deal?" The voice pondered for a bit as he nodded and replied: "I will concede then, but only until you die, you can''t transfer it to someone else." Zhihao smiled as he answered: "Deal!" The voice smirked as he spoke: "Be glad human! you`ll be the first one after so many years to see my appearance." after speaking, the one where the voice came started to move. The Earth vibrated with every move he made. Zhihao was shocked as he prepared himself for what''s to come. Then little by little, he approached Zhihao through the shades of Darkness as his silhouette appeared and spoke. "Human, witness my appearance! I am Amro! The Ancient Celestial Beast! The Mighty..." but before he could finish, Zhihao had already interrupted him. "A Snail?!" Amro got enraged as he shouted: "How dare you call this supreme being a..." but before he could finish, Zhihao interrupted again. "System, are you sure this guy is a Celestial Being?" *Ding!* =Correct. Amro got especially enraged as he shouted: "How dare you! I am the All-mighty Darkness..." Zhihao yet again interrupted: "Yeah, Mighty snail right?" he asked in a matter of factly matter. Amro then immediately shouted: "I`m a Divine Beast! The Celestial Beast Tortoise! one of the Heavenly creatures that walked the universe with the Supreme being himself!" Zhihao nodded then asked: "And then?" Amro''s face darkened as he gnashed his teeth and replied: "I am what Gods call the incarnation of darkness, the great Spectral Earth Tortoise!" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Okay, I got it." _______ Author''s note. Amro was driven from the name Amro4games, he''s the author of "A Snail''s Wisdom" I used his name as it''s actually a turtle that looked like a snail due to it''s oval like shell. So i decided to include amro''s name in this novel :D Chapter 126 Only one of us can live Inside the Dungeon. Zhihao is looking down to a snail with the size of a penny. Amro noticed his gaze as he shouted in anger: "Are you looking down on this Celestial Beast human?" Zhihao snickered as he replied: "I literally am, you are too tiny" Amro wanted to rebuke but it''s the situation he is currently in. he just glared but shook his head and let it be bygones. Zhihao then asked: "How do I free you then? Do I need to break the seal?" Amro chuckled as he replied: "Even if there are billions of you, you wouldn''t be able to touch it, stupid" Zhihao frowned and replied: "You do know I can just die here as I destroy all the holes so that you`ll be stuck here forever right?" Amro glared at Zhihao as he sighed and said: "I`ll make my vow now Human." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Thanks." Amro gazed at Zhihao in bewilderment as he asked: "What are you thanking me for? We''re doing a fair trade here." Zhihao shook his head as he replied: "It''s thanks for lending me your strength, It would be one more power that can guarantee the safety of my loved ones." Amro smiled when he heard it as he thought inside his head: ''This kid isn''t bad, maybe he won''t be the same as my previous master.'' Amro nodded then spoke: "Okay, enough with your dramas kid, I`ll make my vow now." Zhihao nodded in response. Amro smiled as he spoke: "I vow, in the name of us Four Celestial Beast, That I Amro, Guardian of life, Spectral Earth Tortoise to protect those dear to him, and help him obliterate those that are against him! UNDER THE MIGHT OF THESE WORDS I HAD SPOKEN, I HEREBY VOW THAT WILL FOREVER KEEP THEM UNTIL I DIE!" Zhihao was shocked, there were no words including the end of the contract, and that is when he died. Amro looked at Zhihao as he grinned and spoke: "Bewildered kid? I find your characteristics to my Liking, so don''t worry about the small stuff." Zhihao nodded and smiled. Amro then continued: "Just move your fingers as close as you can get to me, and I`ll enter your body through that, get it?" Zhihao nodded as he stretched his finger, but when he''s only one meter away, a force suddenly wanted to push him away. Amro snickered as the barrier had only been weakened by only this much over the millions of years that he had been imprisoned. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he continued to force his hands inside. Amro sighed as he shook his head and spoke: "That''s enough kid, I think you won''t be able to..." But before Amro could finish speaking. Zhihao''s eyes became red as veins inside his body bulged bigger. *Ding!* =Berserker God''s Rage and Berserker God''s Wrath had been activated. Warning to the host, it would be extremely lethal with your current cultivation. chance of death 87.92% Immediately, Zhihao''s strength reached Maximum as his Cultivation power reached almost the same as a Peak Demi God''s Realm, Almost breaking through to God''s Realm. Zhihao ignored the warning as he smiled and spoke to Amro. "You`ll protect them right?" Amro was shocked as he shouted: "Stop kid! Back away now! That power is dangerous with your current level, you won''t be able to handle it!" Zhihao then spoke: "I need strength, You`ll help my loved ones even if I die right?" Amro smiled as he spoke: "Don''t worry kid, you won''t die here" Just right after speaking, Amro''s body grew bigger as a powerful aura surged out of his body. Amro''s figure was like a Snail evolving into a massive creature, His shell grew bigger as spikes started to emerge out of it, limbs appeared as it goes out of his shell, sharp claws and teeth grew the same time as Amro''s body. Amro spoke: "Kid, I owe you one then." After speaking, Amro tried his best to break through the sealing formation although it could only advance by a centimeter it actually helped a lot. Zhihao gritted his teeth, as blood started flowing out of his face. "AAARGH!!" Zhihao screamed at the top of his lungs as he tried to reach Amro, while Amro finally gritted his teeth as he stretched his claw towards Zhihao. Amro noticed Zhihao''s current state as he thought to himself: ''He won''t survive!'' Amro immediately leaked some of his Spiritual energy as he wrapped Zhihao''s body with it, protecting him from any possible dangers. A burst of energy fluctuation immediately came out of their bodies as they tried to reach each other. Then, when Zhihao touched Amro''s claw, Amro immediately warped inside his body as the seal immediately forced him out, immediately throwing him towards the Cave''s wall. "Bang!" Zhihao hit the wall as finally lost his consciousness. Amro immediately went out of Zhihao''s body as he used his Spiritual Energy to heal Zhihao. But just after Amro tried to heal Zhihao, another one immediately went out of Zhihao''s body. Amro exclaimed in shock: "You!, You are..." but before he could finish, the silhouette smiled at him as he made a sound while holding his fingers to his lips. "Shhh." Amro immediately bowed respectfully as he replied: "Yes!" The Silhouette then nodded as he exerted his force to heal Zhihao. Amro exclaimed: "Young Master! Please hold! Your life force!" The silhouette smiled as he shook his head and continued to heal Zhihao. Amro immediately wanted to kill Zhihao just to protect this silhouette, even if he had to die and go back on his own vow. Amro gritted his teeth as he shook his head and tears immediately flowed down his face. The silhouette then spoke: "Don''t worry, I''ve already died millions of years ago." Amro''s face immediately got enraged as he asked: "Was it him!?" The silhouette only smiled as he entered inside Zhihao again. Amro''s face darkened as he made another vow: "It''s either you die, or We die! I vow to the heavens, That it''s either you die or us, My brother and Sisters will have our revenge someday!" Chapter 127 Returning Inside the Dungeon, Zhihao had been lying unconscious for days. Zhihao finally opened his eyes as he felt his whole body is aching all over. "Urgg." Zhihao laid back again as he couldn''t stand up right now. then a voice spoke. "Kid, you''re still alive, lucky for you" Amro smirked as he looked at Zhihao. "Barely, haha" Zhihao replied as he smiled. Zhihao then asked: "How long have I been out?" Amro replied: "About 28 days" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "That long huh." Amro looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "Kid, I only know one thing and that is, you are destined for great things" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Thanks" Amro then shook his head as he replied: "I don''t know until when can I live, but I`ll promise to uphold my vow to you, but there is a day that I`ll be leaving your side and might not come back" Zhihao then looked at Amro as he asked: "What is it?" Amro smirked as he looked at the nosy kid and replied: "It''s not within your power kid, not yet I guess, but you should remove the idea of you helping me in that time, you are still too weak" Zhihao then nodded. Amro then spoke: "Kid, I had 30% of my power previously, but after I morphed into my original state, I only have 5% left, but don''t worry, it''s enough to assist you in your endeavor" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Thanks" Amro nodded as he spoke: "Let''s go out then. Zhihao nodded and just after that, everything around them became blurry as they immediately got out of the Cave, he''s now at the foot of the mountain. Zhihao sighed as he thought: ''these powerful creatures are really something else.'' Amro then spoke: "Kid, I can''t help you by powering you up, Your power is not something that I have compatibility with, but if you can find someone that is compatible with my power, I can merge with him and give him my powers temporarily." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Okay, got it" Amro then spoke: "I`ll go inside of your body, for now, Just call out to me inside your mind and I`ll immediately go out" After speaking, Amro immediately warped inside Zhihao''s body. Zhihao was shocked after Amro went inside of him, he immediately felt a surge of energy gathering inside him. Zhihao then asked: "I thought you can''t help me?" Amro replied: "If it''s ordinary Spiritual Energy, I can still supply you, and some of my characteristics can also go and harden your body." Combined with Tyrannical God''s Body, and Amro''s characteristics, Zhihao''s physical body immediately healed as his internals that was damage was being fixed double the speed when he received his Physique. After a while, Zhihao fully recovered. Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay, It''s time to go back then." After speaking, Zhihao immediately flew up to the sky as he headed to the Eternal Glory Empire. It''s almost 5 years since he went inside the Cave, He would be returning yearning for his loved ones. ... After a while, Zhihao finally came back to Eternal Glory Empire. Zhihao descended to the Floating Fortress. he immediately went towards his Direct Disciples training ground. When Zhihao reached the training ground, Zhihao was shocked, all 20 of them are alive, but what shocked him is that they had already reached Legendary Realm, although only Ma Dong is in Legendary Pinnacle Realm, The rest is within the middle, while three of them is Legendary Peak Realm. Zhihao then looked at them as some are missing an arm, or even a leg. Zhihao asked the system: ''System, do you have any pills to help them regrow their Limbs?'' *Ding!* =Yes, Sacred Root Pill, costs 258,277 Cultivation points. Zhihao nodded as he counted how many of them lost their limbs. Zhihao then replied: ''I need 12'' *Ding!* =Order confirmed, all items are placed in Host''s Inventory. Zhihao immediately withdrew the Pills as he walked towards them. The twenty of them noticed Zhihao as they stood up and greeted. "Master!" Ma Dong then walked as he smiled and spoke: "Master, we''ve completed our mission." Zhihao nodded then the twelve pills floated in the sky as it flew towards the ones that had lost their limbs. Zhihao then spoke: "Take it." Those that had received it replied: "Yes Master" They immediately swallowed after speaking. They didn''t ask what it is, but their Master''s words are their law, they won''t hesitate even if he commanded for them to die. Immediately, their limbs grew, starting from the bones, muscles, veins, until the skin, It became like it was there all this time! They wanted to exclaime in shock, but forced it back as they already knew their Master''s power, they felt that anything is possible so long as their Master deemed it to happen, even if he wished the Heavens to fall and the Earth to rise. Zhihao nodded as he walked close to them. Zhihao then spoke. "What have you done for the whole year of your mission? Ma Dong." Ma Dong immediately walked in front of Zhihao as he replied. "Master, We''ve destroyed and recaptured the lands of 1,245 bases within the time of the Whole year, and when we came back, we started tempering our cultivations." Zhihao then spoke: "I can already see your improvements, and I definitely want to celebrate with you guys" Zhihao paused as he looked at the Direct Disciples of him that lost their limbs, those injuries were definitely something that was dealt by the ones he fought before. Zhihao then asked. "How did you guys lost your limbs?" Ma Dong immediately replied: "Master, during the lasy day of our mission, that''s the time they came," Ma Dong paused as he looked at his juniors, then looked at Zhihao as he continued. "There were enemies that we couldn''t see, but they are there, and every hit they are doing can cut us, we went berserk and scattered are powers just to kill three of them, there were at least a hundred of them, we couldn''t kill them all as we retreated." Zhihao nodded as he pondered for a bit: ''Something like an Assassin?'' *Ding!* =Those are the Lokratiz Soaran''s special assassination group, an invisible unit of theirs. Zhihao replied to the system: ''Thanks.'' Zhihao then spoke to them: "The enemies main forces could arrive any day now, warn every of it, and also after that, Cultivate and temper yourself further, the war will break out anytime, Go." "Yes Master!" They immediately scattered to spread the news. Zhihao then spoke in a low tone: "The war is about to come, I need to prepare too." After speaking, he immediately went inside the Fortress. Chapter 128 A family reunion Within the Floating Fortress. Zhihao finally entered the Fortress and immediately went to look for his wives. Zhihao scanned the whole Fortress but couldn''t find any of them, he then walked towards his baby''s room to check their status, but only the maids were there fixing the room. Zhihao then asked: "Where are they?" One of the Maids replied: "Ah! Lord, they had gone out, they wanted the two Young Masters to see the whole Empire." Zhihao nodded as he asked again: "Since when were they have gone to? and where do you think they went?" The Maid immediately replied: "Master, since this morning, I think they went to the park." Zhihao smiled as he nodded and said thanks, after that he immediately flew towards the park. After a while, Zhihao finally arrived and found his three wives, they were talking to each other. Zhihao immediately descended as he hugged the three of them immediately. he then spoke. "Sorry, I got really delayed." The three of them got shocked, then they immediately calmed as tears flowed from their eyes. "It''s okay, at least you are back now." Ning''er replied as she closed her eyes and held Zhihao''s arms. "Un, as long as you are back." Xiao''er smiled as tears flooded down her face. "Hmmp! You still know how to come back!." Verushka pouted as tears in her eyes build up, she folded her arm like someone really mad. Then Zhihao felt a surge of aura from his back, although it wasn''t strong, it''s not weak either, he just let them do whatever they wanted to do, he doesn''t want to ruin his time with his wives after all, and they can''t do anything to him anyway. Then a sound came from Zhihao''s head. "Pak! Pak! Pak!" Three simultaneous sounds echoed through the air. then the three spoke. "Why are you bullying Mama, Mom, and Mother!" "Yeah! Don''t Bully them!" "Why you bully mamas!" Zhihao was shocked when he immediately turned as he hugged the two of them. The two boys immediately realized who Zhihao was as he hugged him and shouted: "Dad!" Zhihao then noticed someone else suddenly looked at the little girl beside them that was currently pouting. Zhihao then looked at the girl and Verushka alternately. Zhihao then asked: "Her name?" Verushka replied: "Hilary" "What a good name." Zhihao spoke as he approached her. Zhihao then asked. "Do you know me?" Hilary shook her head as she folded her arms. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "I am your Father." Hilary glared at him and spoke: "Mom say I should no talk to stranger!" Hilary immediately ran towards Verushka as she hid behind her. Hilary then looked at her Mom as she asked: "Who is he mom?" Verushka smiled as she replied: "It''s your Dad" Hilary then looked at Zhihao then replied: "Definitely don''t look like me, I look like you Mom!" Verushka smiled as she replied: "Of course, but he''s your daddy" Hilary then looked at Zhihao as she walked around him while holding her hands behind her body, observing him. looking like a boss watching her sinned underling. Hilary sternly looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "Let me bite your finger then, prove your identity." Zhihao got bewildered as he looked at Verushka. Verushka sighed as she spoke: "It''s a special ritual where we can detect what kind of relationship we have with one another." Zhihao nodded in response as he replied: "Okay, you can take a bi..." but before he could finish speaking, Hilary had already bit his arm. Zhihao smiled as he released his defensive qi in the bitten area so that she could penetrate his skin. Immediately, Hilary''s eyes brightened blue as she looked at Zhihao then attacked him with her powerful hug as she spoke. "Daddy! Woo! I have a daddy too!" Zhihao smiled as he pats Hilary''s head and spoke: "Let''s go inside then." After speaking, Zhihao lifted Hilary in the back of his head while picking up both Baichen and Jingyi in his arms. Zhihao''s children immediately became excited as the trio of them shouted. "Charge!" Baichen spoke excitedly "Attack the fortress! We got Daddy as a sacrifice! Go go go!" Hilary spoke with determination, looking serious just like how her mother usually is. "Daddy! faster faster!" Jingyi spoke as he wielded his tiny sword. Zhihao smiled as he looked at his wives beside him, he wishes that he could just spend his days like this. Zhihao then spoke to them. "After we''ve repelled and shoved away all those invaders, We''ll leave peacefully, okay?" Ning''er, Xiao''er, and Verushka smiled and simultaneously nodded. Such a life is not a bad thing. it''s actually a good way to live their lives after having a stable living. they could just focus on developing their economy instead of trying to become strong. Amro hearing this smiled as he scanned Zhihao''s children. Amro placed a spirit brand in the back of the three kids. It just means that these three are his utmost priority to protect within the future. ... Somewhere in a very far end of the galaxy, a silhouette approached a man sitting on the throne. the one that approach spoke. "Master, the vanguards that we had sent to the Cultivation realm had been out of contact for more than 4 years already, and the Archon in charge had been missing in action, his life crystal is also being drained slowly." The one sitting on the throne opened his eyes as he spoke: "So, he''s finally dead huh, that annoying guy." "Yes master." the reporter replied. "I don''t know how, but there is definitely a strong enemy out there." Pausing for a bit, the man sitting on the throne continued. "Send one... no, my two vice commander." "What? Master?" The reporter was shocked, those two were supreme beings in their realm, and only He, their Master is stronger than them, Although they haven''t conquered the whole realm yet, it''s already 75% in its grand completion. The one on the throne glared at him as he waved his hand. Immediately a force pushed the reporter as he slammed through the walls. The reporter immediately replied: "Thank you for Master for being merciful, I shall fulfill your duties." The man on the throne stood up as he spoke to himself: "I''ll rule the whole universe, I`ll make everything under my feet. Cultivation realm, Sword and Magic realm, you two shall be my stepping stone before I kill my way to reach you again, If I alone wouldn''t be sufficient, then I`ll bring along a whole realm, I`ll have my vengeance!" After speaking, the man walks out of his throne room, glaring at a very shiny universe. Chapter 129 Different Flavors of Flames Arriving inside the Fortress. Zhihao smiled as he played with his kids. Hilary is playing with Zhihao''s arms as she got pulled up and down by him. Baichen then asked: "Dad, where did you go? it''s been so long!" Jingyi nodded repeatedly as he asked too: "Yes dad, Where''d have you gone to?" Zhihao then smiled at them as he replied: "I''ve been to a very mysterious place, and made a lot of benefits." Baichen and Jingyi nodded then asked: "What benefits father?" Zhihao then smiled at them as he replied: "It''s to help your Father''s Empire grow, you`ll get it once you''ve grown bigger." They both replied at Zhihao with a "Kay." After replying, they went to their mothers to play. Hilary then spoke: "Father! We very stwong now! see?" While speaking, Hilary summoned a Dark flame in her hands. Zhihao was astounded as he wanted to touch it. but then Hilary shouted. "Don''t! Daddy will get huwt if you touch it!" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Really? but your father is really strong you know?" Hilary glared at her Father being boastful, she then snickered and replied: "Twy it then! Don''t say I didn''t wawn yu!" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and lifted his hand and tried to poke it, but as soon as he did, he felt an extreme pain coming from his finger. Zhihao looked at his finger then saw something miraculous, the skin is rotting, while the meat and bone in his finger decayed. Zhihao was shocked and at the same time surprised! What kind of power was this? Hilary then extinguished her flame as she spoke: "See! Told you! look now daddy is huwt! I`m sowwy daddy, wu wu wu." Hilary immediately cried when she saw Zhihao''s finger being destroyed by her flames. Zhihao patted her head as he spoke: "I told you daddy is strong, look at my finger now." Hilary opened her eyes as she wiped away the tears, she was shocked when she saw her Father''s finger all complete. she then looked at her Mother as she shouted. "Mom! Mom! Look! Daddy fingew didn''t get huwt!" But to her surprise, the Three mothers were actually shocked as well. Zhihao noticed this and explained: "It''s my physique, I cultivated it since young." The three of them sighed and nodded. Baichen and Jingyi heard the commotion as they immediately came back to their Father''s side. The both of them run fast as Baichen spoke: "Dad! Look at my powers! look! look!" Jingyi didn''t want to be beaten by his brother so he summoned his skill too: "Daddy! Me too, look! mine is more beautiful!" Zhihao was shocked yet again, Baichen summoned a Blue colored flame, while Jingyi summoned a green one. Zhihao then looked at his Wives and asked: "What are these?" Ning''er sighed as she explained: "We don''t really know either but when they started cultivating, that''s the power they got out of their bodies from the get-go." Zhihao nodded as he poked Baichen''s blue flame. this time too was another shock, he''s feeling extremely cold, but his finger is getting evaporated! What kind of power is this! Zhihao then looked at Jingyi''s flame and poked it with his other finger. This time, Zhihao felt a cool breeze of wind while his finger disintegrated scattering in the air. Zhihao hugged them immediately after fully recovering his fingers. Zhihao then spoke: "You guys cultivate diligently okay? You need to protect your Mothers and Sister in the future." "Got it, Dad!" Baichen and Jingyi smiled proudly as they replied. Hilary then pouted as she spoke: "Daddy, I`m going to be stwong too!" Zhihao patted Hilary''s head as he replied: "Yes, yes, of course, but as your older brother, they need to protect you too, right? you are their little Sister, after all, the Princess of our Empire, okay?" When Hilary heard the word princess, she immediately brightened up as she nodded and replied: "Okay daddy!" Then Hilary continued: "Daddy, I`m sleepy." Baichen and Jingyi also yawned as they replied: "Us too Dad." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay, you guys can sleep now." After speaking, Zhihao called the Maids to deliver them to their room. Zhihao then looked at his wives and spoke: "They will be arriving anytime now, I hope you guys won''t force yourself to go with us." The three of them smiled as they replied: "Of course we''ll refuse, no matter what, you are our husband, we always nodded when you don''t want to go with you, but this time, it''s different." Zhihao sighed as he asked: "Can you please not? What about Baichen? what about Jingyi? Hilary? if something happened to you guys, they will really be sad, you three know right?" Xiao''er then looked at Zhihao firmly as she replied: "They''ll be sad too if you are gone, and so wouldthe three of us." Verushka then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "You won''t be able to change our minds this time." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "But there would be one simple thing you need to do when you go with us that time, okay?" The three of them nodded as Verushka asked: "What?" Zhihao continued: "If it became extremely dangerous, you`ll all retreat to the Fortress." The three of them wanted to rebuke but Zhihao then continued. "I have a way to preserve my life, but for the three of you, there wouldn''t be, and I`d feel sad if anything happened to any of you three, understand? I can''t protect you all by that time." Zhihao then looked at them as he spoke: "No matter where I am, I`ll definitely come back to you guys, even if I turn into a ghost, I`ll madly rush to you guys when you get into any sort of danger, Okay?" The three of them blushed, then Verushka held Zhihao''s hands as she pulled Zhihao into their bed. Zhihao was shocked but just went with the flow, as the flames inside his heart burned fiery flames. Ning''er immediately shouted: "That''s not fair Veru! You''re really taking the lead again this time!" After speaking, Ning''er immediately joined the two of them. Xiao''er immediately blushed as she spoke: "Me... Me too!" Hearing this word, Zhihao pulled Xiao''er together with them. Amro can see everything through Zhihao''s eyes as he spoke: ''Okay, I guess it''s time for me to sleep, he forgot to introduce me, this dam guy.'' After speaking, Amro immediately closed his eyes as he fell asleep. Chapter 130 DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE UNDER 18! Title : The Bond between the four. Inside the Floating Fortress, in the room where Zhihao rest. Different kinds of sounds can be heard. Then, a voice was inside shouted in pleasure: "Zhihao, wait it''s too sud... AHH!" Zhihao immediately pushed his index finger slid directly inside the moist pearl and wreaked havoc, prompting the latter''s body to arc, and her mouth emanated a moan of pleasure. Zhihao after noticing that Ning''er was ready immediately penetrated inside her as he ravaged her whole body. Due to the number of times that they enjoyed each other''s bodies, Zhihao already knew the numerous weak points insides their bodies and he decisively stirred her up. Verushka immediately interrupted him as she spoke: "Why are you leaving me unattended?" After speaking, Verushka immediately lifted Ning''er up while pushing Zhihao down, Making Ning''er ride Zhihao instead. After changing their position, Verushka immediately sat on Zhihao''s face as she pointed her tiny slit towards'' Zhihao''s lips. Zhihao immediately penetrated the slit between Verushka''s legs as she exclaimed. "AHHH! Unnn, Yes, Honey, more!" Zhihao''s tongue techniques already became refined and he moved, according to Verushka''s desire. Twisting there, slurping sounds echoed amidst the bedroom and as Verushka started moving up and down a string of liquid lingered between Zhihao''s mouth and Verushka''s slit, indicating the connection that they had. Xiao''er didn''t know what to do as she just stared at the three of them. Verushka got excited then noticed Xiao''er''s problem as she smiled and pulled her and kissed her lips. Zhihao then noticed Xiao''er as his hands crawled from her legs towards her private place, and immediately after reaching the place, Zhihao penetrated Xiao''er p*ssy. Xiao''er couldn''t help but exhale in pleasure as she shouted: "AHHH! Ummm!" Xiao''er''s figure fidgeted upon feeling the cold, yet warm touch of Zhihao''s finger entering inside her. Her expression became tender and her eyes glazed and filled with desire as it landed on Zhihao''s face. A moan filled with pleasure and pain echoed inside the room as their body connected, both Verushka and Ning''er''s body arched up as they endured the searing pleasure that they are feeling inside of them. Zhihao kept licking and pumping at the same time, and after a while, he heard a bigger sound. "KYAA!! NOO! AHH!!" a shout of pure ecstasy escaped from Ning''er''s mouth as she slumped back towards the bed, and she''s having some pulsation towards her stomach after she came. Verushka smiled as she spoke: "Unnn! Xiao''er, your turn." Xiao''er immediately nodded as she positioned herself above Zhihao''s Manhood, but just when Xiao''er touched the tip of Zhihao''s, Zhihao immediately moved his Junior brother and penetrated Xiao''er''s inside. Xiao''er immediately got shocked as her eyes rolled upward. Verushka immediately held her back as she kissed her again and fondled her chest, Xiao''er did the same thing after finally calming down. Xiao''er was too sensitive and immediately got knocked down by Zhihao''s Manhood while billions of Zhihao''s micro soldiers entered her womb. Xiao''er shouted in extreme pleasure: "AHHH!" With a moan that practically became akin to that of a scream, Xiao''er''s inside repeatedly contracted, enveloping his cock in a suction force which begged him to deposit his semen. Zhihao felt the extreme pleasure unbearable anymore as he deposited a mouthful of his liquid inside Xiao''er Xiao''er immediately slumped down tothe bed, trembling from the extreme pleasure she felt from Zhihao''s climax. Verushka smiled as she spoke: "It''s my turn now honey." Zhihao immediately held Verushka''s body and lifted her up. Verushka was shocked as she asked: "What are you doi..." but before she could finish speaking something she hasn''t done before happened. Zhihao looked at Verushka''s slit as he pointed his Manhood and pulled down Verushka immediately penetrating her p*ssy. Verushka smiled wildly as she exclaimed in pleasure: "AHHH! F*CK!, YES!" Verushka wrapped her arms and legs on Zhihao''s body, while he kept pounding her really hard. "More...Harder!" Verushka screamed and Zhihao felt that her insides throbbed rhythmically, sending him dangerously on the edge as he spoke, "I can''t endure it anymore... I''m sending everything, inside you, Verushka." Zhihao gritted his teeth while he whispered in her ears and the hold that Verushka did on his body tightened further, as both of them reached the end of their climax and with a final thrust, Zhihao''s cock repeatedly throbbed as he deposited, several rounds of semen inside her. In a while, when Verushka was almost passing out, Ning''er woke up as she smiled and spoke: "I''ll do that too!" Every shell, cover, and mask were removed that day as they just let their bestial instincts take over and engross themselves to the extreme pleasure of sex. Time went by faster than usual as 10 hours had already passed The four of them panted as they laid in the bed, hugging and cuddling together. __________ Hello everyone, Author here, This chapter won''t be published because Some might feel alienated by the contents.

The four of them chatted in a low voice as they slowly dazed themselves to sleep. Chapter 131 What just happened? Floating Fortress, within Zhihao''s room. Zhihao finally woke up as he tried to get up, but then he remembered that his wives are still in his body, tightly hugging him. he was about to kiss Ning''er then she opened her mouth as a sound came out. "Husband... don''t... leave us..." Immediately, after speaking, all three of them had tears fell from their face. Zhihao felt warm inside his heart as he thought: ''I`ll protect you all, don''t worry, even if I have to sacrifice my own life for it.'' Zhihao then kissed their foreheads as he fixed their position and placed them in the bed. Zhihao then walked out as put his clothes on. After fixing everything, Zhihao then immediately went towards the Practicing yard. Zhihao immediately looked at the sky as he called: "Ying Mai!." "shwosh!" Immediately, a figure descended as it landed in front of Zhihao and replied. "Master! I`m here to obey." Ying Mai spoke after bowing her head. Zhihao nodded as he asked: "Have you noticed anything weird about the ones that were moved to that City?" "Master, we haven''t seen anything to be suspicious about, but a lot of them sometimes looked at our Empire from the distance and immediately do their work, We assumed that they just want to live here too." Ying Mai reported. Zhihao nodded as he pondered for a bit and thought: ''Is it yearning? that''s it? am I really becoming too suspicious?'' he paused his thought then immediately found another idea. ''Spying? they are gathering information about our location!?'' Zhihao thought inside his head as he looked back to Ying Mai and ordered. "Ying Mai, everything important that we''re doing, only do it inside the Empire''s wall." Ying Mai immediately nodded as she replied: "Yes, Master." Zhihao then continued: "You`ve already reached Mythical Realm middle stage? not bad." Ying Mai blushed for a second as she replied: "It''s all Master''s work that helped me reach my current stage." Zhihao nodded as he asked: "How many disciples and what realm are they under your command?" "Master, I have 4 personal Disciples, and 12 Disciples in total, all of them are in Divine Realm pinnacle stage." Ying Mai reported. Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Make sure to help them well, you`ll leave them here to protect the whole Empire when we engage our enemies." Ying Mai nodded. Zhihao then continued: "In any day, the enemies might arrive, you need to prepare yourself." Ying Mai immediately replied: "Yes Master!" Zhihao then waved his hand and spoke: "You may go now." With a nod, Ying Mai immediately vanished as she had gone back to her Arc. Zhihao then called: "Direct Disciples, forward!" After hearing their Master''s voice, they immediately arrived one by one and greeted: "Master, your orders." Zhihao continued: "Within the 8 Spatial Rings in my hand, there are resources and materials that could be used to create weapons and armors. the armors can be sold as your suits are already high grade, but you all would need a better weapon, the rest would be given to the Eternal Royal Guards." Zhihao then handed them all the spatial rings after speaking. Ma Dong accepted them and replied: "Thank you, Master." Zhihao then spoke: "You may go now." All of them immediately flew as they followed Ma Dong''s lead. Zhihao looked towards the sky as he walked outside the Fortress, It''s been a long time since he did nothing. Zhihao became dazed for a bit as he looked at the moving clouds, but then, a silhouette appeared in front of him as she rammed her head into Zhihao''s chest, she immediately fell down flat in the ground. "Ugh! what kind of rock blocks my way!" the silhouette looked at Zhihao as she pondered where she had seen this face before. Zhihao then looked at the lady as he apologized: "Ah, sorry, It''s my fault that I was not paying attention to where I am walking." After speaking, Zhihao held his arms out wanting to assist the fallen lady. The silhouette took Zhihao''s hand and looked towards Zhihao''s face, she really seemed to have remembered him from somewhere. Although Zhihao felt the same, he just shook his head and walked again after assisting the lady. Then a shout from the lady was immediately heard: "AH! Sis veru''s mating partner!" Zhihao immediately stumbled after hearing those words. Zhihao then looked at the Silhouette as he asked: "You are?" The lady immediately replied: "I`m Sis veru''s little Sister! Azalea!" Zhihao opened his eyes and nodded as he replied: "Oh! The Beast Kin''s current leader?" Azalea nodded as she replied: "Yep! Yep!" Zhihao patted her head as he spoke: "You should take proper responsibility too, you have your own people to protect." Zhihao waited for a reply but there was none, he then looked at Azalea. Azalea blushed as she spoke: "It''s too sudden! I`m not prepared yet, I... I... I still have a lot of things to do with life, so..." after speaking up to that, another silhouette appeared. "Pak!" It was Verushka, she immediately spoke: "Azalea, don''t bother with him, he has no idea of your Beast Kin''s tradition." after speaking, Verushka immediately glared at Zhihao. Zhihao then asked as he opened his eyes wide: "Eh? What did I do wrong this time?" Verushka sighed as she spoke: "Being patted in the head by an opposite sex means that he''s proposing." Zhihao was shocked as he looked at Azalea and spoke: "It was a misunderstanding! Really a misunderstanding! You should forget about it, Okay?" Zhihao tried his best to make the misunderstanding be cleared. Azalea then cried as she spoke: "So I`m not good enough..." After speaking, she immediately ran away as tears flew out of her face. Verushka sighed as she patted Zhihao''s back and spoke: "Goodluck." giving Zhihao a thumbs up before flying back inside the Fortress. Zhihao opened his eyes as he spoke in a monotone: "What just happened?" Chapter 132 The start to an end Zhihao sighed as he followed where she''s gone to, but then he felt two massive energies entering their world. Zhihao was shocked as his heart slumped, these powers are something he can''t match yet, and two of them at the same time. Zhihao immediately shouted: "They had arrived!" all of them heard this as they arrived beside Zhihao. Ying Mai, Verushka, Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately arrived first, while his twenty Disciples and the Eternal Royal Guards arrived last. Everyone flew towards the sky as they prepared for any unexpected attacks. Zhihao then spoke to Amro as he asked: ''Amro, can you protect them all?'' Amro shook his head as he replied: ''No, the number of your people are more than millions, I couldn''t do anything. my maximum is 12 including you.'' Zhihao was shocked, he then asked: ''removed my protection, place it to my wives and my 9 Disciples that are the weakest. Zhihao gritted his teeth by the choice he made, but he had no choice, he had to pick some too. Amro nodded as his power surged forth and covered the ones Mentioned by Zhihao. Zhihao noticed that the two powers had stayed in the farthest south from them. Zhihao looked at the citizens staring at him, he pondered for a bit as he sighed and ordered. "If they are not coming to us, we will come to them! We go!" After speaking, Zhihao immediately led the charge of slaughter towards the enemies. He remembered that what Dzaroka spoke before, that they gathered their powers through their bases. Zhihao scanned his Eternal Royal guards, they were already Peak to Pinnacle stage of Divine Realm, and with the help of their equipment, they''d be able to take out bases after bases too. "Everyone! We''ll split into three groups! Ning''er and Xiao''er go with the 2nd group, Verushka, Ying Mai the 3rd group! I`ll lead the first group towards their strongest warriors." Everyone nodded as they replied: "Yes!" Ning''er and Xiao''er immediately went to Zhihao''s location as they killed his lips and spoke. Ning''er: "Please be safe, return to us alive." Xiao''er: "Don''t do anything dangerous please, Just stay safe." After speaking, the both of them headed towards the 2nd group. Verushka came closer to Zhihao as she hugged him and spoke: "If you dare die before me, I`ll follow you and kill you there myself!" Verushka immediately left towards the 3rd group. Ying Mai smiled as she spoke: "Master, Please be safe, we shall meet again after this." Ying Mai followed suit as she tightened her hands into fists and followed Verushka. Zhihao then shouted: "The more bases we destroyed, the bigger the chance we can win this!" All of them replied: "Yes!" as their wills bared iron, and hearts as strong as steel. From the get-go, they wanted to kill the enemies, this is their time for it. Zhihao then shouted as he flew towards the south with the dedication: "Let''s drive those foul things back to whence they came from!" Everyone shouted simultaneously as they rushed forward: "WAAAAAA!" Zhihao then continued: "For our world! For the safety of our beloved ones! WE FIGHT!" Zhihao steamed roll all the bases they could pass and destroyed every living invaders as he passed by. Just within a span of 3 hours, the three groups had already demolished about 10,000 bases. Zhihao looked around as he saw his subordinates covered in blood from their own and their enemies. Zhihao then ordered: "Rest for an hour, recover your spiritual energy!" "Yes!" Amro then spoke to Zhihao: ''Are you sure that you`ll be confronting them?'' Zhihao replied: ''Yes, why do you ask?'' Amro sighed as he spoke: ''Those two are at least Demi-God Realm cultivator between lower, and middle stage.'' Zhihao shook his head as he replied: ''I have no choice, there were millions of normal citizens there, I can''t get them to be involved with this too.'' Amro sighed then looked at the Silhouette behind him and smiled as he spoke in a low tone: ''Just like you eh'' The silhouette only smiled but didn''t reply. Amro just shook his head and watch Zhihao''s point of view and spoke: ''I wish he won''t have the same end as you did.'' The silhouette only nodded as he smiled at the same time. ... Within the enemy''s main base. The Rah is watching within the hologram as he spoke: "Kul Marques(Admirals), that''s the one, he was only stronger than one of us a few years back, but now, his improvement had caused me to be astonished, he''s almost as strong as one of you. The two silhouette then smiled as they nodded, Zhihao in their observation is almost as strong as them. One of them spoke: "Let them wreck some more bases, it will be his bonus for reaching this far. Rah immediately replied: "Yes!" The two silhouettes then walked out of the base as they checked for things. ... Zhihao and the rest finally recuperated as he ordered: "Let''s continue!" Immediately all of them replied: "Yes Master!" Zhihao led the charge as they destroyed more bases, one after another. Zhihao kept checking the location of the two, but they are still not moving. Zhihao snickered as he spoke: ''Overconfident, but I guess I need to thank them later too.'' The slaughter continued as they reached halfway to their main base, It has been exactly been a day since they had started and crushed about 320,000 bases. Zhihao then ordered: "Recover!" "YES!" Everyone answered as they went into meditation to recover their spiritual energy. ... After an hour, Zhihao was about to order again, but then he noticed that the two powerful being is coming towards them with a group of soldiers. Zhihao then shouted: "They are coming! Prepare for battle!" Everyone immediately tensed up as they prepared to engage the enemies anytime. Zhihao looked at the horizon and immediately, they appeared. One of the two spoke: "So... Shall we start?" A smirk appeared on their faces after speaking. Chapter 133 The War for Supremacy: Battle Within the enemy base, two groups had been glaring at each other already prepared to start the massacre. Zhihao focused his attention on the two Demi-God invaders. One of them spoke: "It would be unfair if the both of us go right?" The other one named Bugal nodded as he replied: "So I should be the only one going right?" The other one is named Bagul shook his head as he spoke: "It should be me, Brother, how many times had you stolen the first kill from me?" Bugal replied: "Of course I should do that, I`m stronger than you after all." Bagul then grunted: "No, this time, I should be the one to engage the enemy." "All right, all right, just don''t go dying on me, okay?" Bugal replied. Bagul smiled as he spoke: "Thanks Brother, you''re really the best Brother there is in this world!" Zhihao snickered noticing that he''s being belittled by the other two. he asked the system: ''How many points do I have?'' *Ding!* =Cultivation points : 42,870,121,992. Zhihao was shocked, then he remembered the slaughter they did this past few hours and nodded. ''System, Is there something that can help us win this war?'' Zhihao asked. *Ding!* =Supreme Martial God''s Aura can increase your allies and your power by two folds, but it costs 100,000,000 Cultivation points per hour. *Ding!* =Supreme Martial God''s Elemental Law of the Universe can increase your allies and your elemental powers and will also cost 100,000,000 Cultivation points per hour. *Ding!* =Supreme Martial God''s Fortitude and Fortification can increase your allies and your defense two folds and also costs 100,000,000 Cultivation per hour. Zhihao was shocked as he asked: ''Do you have any sort of ties with that Supreme Martial God or something? how come you have a lot of his skills, and is my set also from Supreme Martial God?'' Zhihao asked but he didn''t get any sort of respond, he just sighed as he spoke to the system: ''Please activate three of the auras that you mentioned. *Ding!* =Order received. Immediately after confirming the order, the system released the auras as it covered everyone that Zhihao deemed as his ally, even those people that are far away were affected. Zhihao felt the power rushing through his veins as he smiled and shouted: "The slaughter begins!" "YES!" All of them felt the increase in power that they had received. they were excited by the mysterious aura that came from Zhihao''s body increasing their spiritual energy and might! Zhihao led the charge as he immediately targeted the two beings. Bagul immediately spoke: "Wait! Wait! We''re not finished yet! not yet!" Bugal sighed and said: "Should I help you Brother? Bagul frowned as he dashed to intercept Zhihao while speaking to Bugal: "I don''t need your help, Brother." Zhihao smirked as he held the hilt of his swords and used his skill: "Heavenly Flash Sword!" Bagul smiled but then noticed the enormous power within the two flashes of spiritual energy. Bagul immediately held his arms to block it. "Swish! Swish!" Bagul shook his head as he spoke: "Wow! What power! Are you sure this guy is only an 8th stage? not 9th stagers like us Brother?" Bugal scanned Zhihao as he replied: "Yes, his power level stage is at 148,820, but something is different, his energy is almost the same as you, it''s almost at the 10,000 barrier, he has 9,999 Energy level." Bagul smirked and laughed: "Ohhh, that''s nice then, a great talent indeed! Brother what''s my energy level?" Bugal sighed as he replied: "21,810 Energy level" Bagul laughed and spoke: "I increased my Energy level again, hooo!" Pausing for a bit, Bagul looked at Zhihao as he spoke. "Let''s start weakling" Zhihao frowned when he heard the two of them speaking then he thought: ''I`m behind by that much?!'' After thinking like that, Zhihao felt weak indeed, but then a notification popped up. *Ding!* =Different Realms have different measurements, he only measured Energy as that''s their Main source of power, You have your Elemental power, Cultivation Level, and Physique, he only measured your Power state. When Zhihao heard this, he smirked as he immediately rushed towards Bagul. Zhihao then unleashed his skills after skills. "Linear Ray!" "Fire Ball!" "Fire Ball!" "Linear Ray!" "Nine-Tailed Lazer!" Bagul was shocked as he summoned his Energy Barrier. The sound of the Barrier being summoned immediately sounded. Woong! It looked like the back of a Turtle''s back but blue in color. Bagul was shocked though after the Nine-Tailed Lazer shot his barrier, it started the form cracks. Bagul looked at his Brother wanted to ask for help, but then Zhihao blocked his view. Zhihao smiled as he cast his skill. "Heavenly Flame Descend!" Bagul waited for something to come out of Zhihao''s finger, but none showed. Bagul smirked as he laughed and spoke: "Stupid! hahahha..." But after finishing his words, the sky above him started to open up as the clouds looked like they are making way for something. Bugal immediately took action as he spoke: "Not good!" A Concentrated flame energy shot down from the sky out of nowhere. Bagul immediately focused his energy and poured it towards his Barrier. "Zhoooooong!" The sound of the descending concentrated flames after hitting Bagul screamed wildly. Bugal immediately took out his weapon as he dashed towards Zhihao, The weapon looked like a double-edged blade, but someone has a crescent-shaped tip, it looked like a crescent moon being stabbed by a big pole. Zhihao noticed Bugal''s approach as he immediately prepared to defend against his attack. Bugal immediately used one of his blades to push Bagul out of the concentrated flame, while he used the other one to slash at Zhihao. Zhihao immediately dodged and looked at the two enemies as he smirked and spoke: "Not bad for someone that has 20k points in energy base." Bagul got enraged as he wanted to charge immediately, but then someone appeared in front of him as he stopped Bagul and spoke: "Forgive me for underestimating your capabilities, we should start now too." Bagul looked at Bugal as he spoke: "Brother! I can still keep going! I can..." But before he could finish, Bugal looked at him and spoke: "You are not ready to fight someone like him yet, the fact that you didn''t even measure his capabilities is a proof." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Not bad for a character, it''s like that guy before, he''s a great warrior too, like you." Bugal smiled as he spoke: "Bagul, stay far away for now." Bagul wanted to rebuke, but his Brother is serious right now, he immediately flew into distance. Bugal then looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "I will show you how I respect strong warriors." After speaking, Bugal then summoned his energy out as he directed it to his weapons, It immediately morphed into something like two katars as it wrapped his whole hands. Zhihao smiled as he replied: "That''s good then, Let''s start?" Chapter 134 The War for Supremacy: Bugals Power In the midst of the battle. When Bugal''s weapon was summoned, it felt like his power multiplied to ten folds. Bagul was shocked when he saw his Brother summoned his weapon''s final form, He immediately spoke. "Brother! Why''d you summon your weapon''s final form!?" Zhihao was shocked too, such power up! It''s definitely a cheat! he''s cheating! Bugal looked at Bagul as he spoke: "Bagul, I don''t know why you kept looking down on him, but, I think he has something up his sleeves, and even though his power is not much against me, he has something else, It''s not the power we used, it is different." Bagul was shocked as he looked at his Brother and asked: "He''s that strong that you`d admit it yourself?!" Bugal smiled as he spoke: "Yes, he is." Bagul felt his whole heart slumped, then he spoke: "Brother, Let me handle him, I`ll summon my final stage..." but before he could finish speaking. Bugal approached him immediately as he patted Bagul''s head and spoke: "Bagul, I treasure you as my little brother but believe me when I say this, You can''t deal with him yet." Hearing Bugal''s words, Bagul slumped down as he felt weak now. Bugal then looked at Zhihao as he smiled and spoke: "Are you ready?" Zhihao then finally woken up from his curses inside his head and spoke: "Wait! Wait for a bit." Bugal sighed as he nodded his head. Zhihao then spoke inside his mind: ''System! How can I beat him when he''s like that? How strong is he now?!" *Ding!* =He''s power is at the Demi-God''s Pinnacle stage after summoning that weapon. Zhihao sadly sighed as he asked: ''How can I beat him then?'' *Ding!* =Unseal your Supreme Martial God''s Sword 1st Seal, It goes up to 5th seal. Zhihao then asked: ''How do I unseal it?'' *Ding!* =20,000,000,000 Cultivation points are enough. Zhihao sighed as he spoke: "Unseal it." *Ding!* =Order confirmed. After the final notification, Zhihao''s sword transformed too, it''s Guard immediately formed into something that of a Dragon''s head, and its hilt grew some designs too, while the sword''s edge turned into a blade. Zhihao''s aura immediately exploded as a Silhouette of a white dragon emerged out of him. Bagul trembled as he spoke in a low tone: "He still can be more powerful than before?" Bugal patted his head as he spoke: "Now you get it?" Pausing for a bit he spoke again. "Distance yourself first, I might need your help if something unexpected comes again. Bagul nodded as he flew in a distance as he looked at Zhihao''s power. Zhihao''s power had increased five folds when he unsealed his sword''s 1st stage. Zhihao felt ecstatic as he looked at the sword and muttered: "How strong will I be if I unsealed the 5 stages?" Inside Zhihao''s head, Amro spoke to the silhouette: "Are you sure you are not gonna warn him?" The silhouette shook his head as he looked at the view. Amro sighed and spoke again: "He''s still too far away from matching that Bugal guy." Zhihao then spoke to Bugal: "I`m ready." Bugal nodded as he prepared to attack, then suddenly all of his aura vanished together with him. Zhihao was shocked, It''s broad daylight, how can someone vanish immediately? but just after thinking something unexpected happened. Bugal struck Zhihao in his back and smiled: "Let''s have a good fight" Zhihao immediately brandished his blade, but after waving it, Bugal was already nowhere to be found. Zhihao smirked as he spoke: "F*ck! Not bad!" After speaking, Zhihao immediately vomited a mouthful of blood as the hole in his stomach healed immediately. Zhihao searched his surrounding as he cast a skill. "Record of the Burning World!" Flames erupted out of Zhihao''s body afterward, covering the skies with flame. Bugal then revealed himself as he spoke: "A domain?" pausing for a bit, Bugal then smirked as he continued. "I have one too!" After just speaking, Bugal released his energy as everything turned dark around them. Bagul smirked as he laughed and spoke: "Hahahaha, It''s over! My big Brother unleashed his domain! you won''t even know how you died inside!" Zhihao was shocked as his Burning World had already been crushed and now, he couldn''t even see his own hands. Zhihao immediately cast his skill. "Handsome Circle skill!" After using the skill, Zhihao felt calmer as he scanned the whole area around him. He immediately noticed a silhouette approaching him from behind. Zhihao immediately faced the other way and wielded his sword. "Heavenly Flash Draw!" Zhihao immediately hit him as he smiled, but his smile immediately froze when another attack hit him from behind. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "Nice!" Bugal sighed and spoke: "You can still smile at a time like this? you are definitely different." Bugal immediately attacked Zhihao. Zhihao drew another sword as he blocked the two attacks immediately and replied: "You are getting slower grandpa!" Bugal smirked and answered: "How about this then." Zhihao smirked as he prepared to intercept the attack, but then another unexpected thing happened. "F*CK!" Ten attacks from different locations appeared out of nowhere. Zhihao wielded his sword immediately and tried to block as many as he can. Bugal spoke: "Not bad, definitely not bad." Zhihao smirked and healed himself up, he blocked 4 attacks but 6 others went through his body. Zhihao then thought: ''I need to get out of this domain thingy, System, do you have anything out there to help me?'' After a few seconds of waiting, Zhihao didn''t hear a response. Zhihao widened his eyes in surprise as he thought: ''Even the system has nothing to counter it?'' Zhihao gritted his teeth and spoke to Bugal: "We need to finish this with me coming out victorious!" Bugal laughed as he replied: "How selfish can you be, I have a mission too you know." After speaking, Bugal immediately proceeded in chipping away Zhihao''s life. ... Inside Zhihao''s mind. Amro spoke: "Are you sure you wouldn''t help him? This is too disadvantageous to him." The silhouette finally opened his eyes and spoke: "He needs to gain experience, he has so much power but he''s still not experienced like others." Amro sighed and replied: "I wish he''ll really come out of here victoriously." Amro wanted to help, but currently, his Spiritual energy is limited, and can only protect those that Zhihao wanted to protect. Amro spoke: "Good luck to you kid." Chapter 135 The War for Supremacy: Sword Dance Within the Battlefield. The fight had already started, Ma Dong, Mo Ying, Lu Piao, and Noobelist had started their fight a few minutes ago. The four-legged creatures had started bombarding them, they numbered around millions, and every shot they take injured a lot of warriors from the Cultivation World, some even got killed when they were hit simultaneously. Ma Dong and the rest started to rush towards the location of those four-legged creatures. But the path separating the two groups are arduous, transcendent beings are in place to protect them, while Rah had been killing his way to them too, and another problem was the floating Spaceships, the small ones aren''t much of a trouble, but there are around 100,000 of those big things, and the small ones were numbering about hundreds of millions, they are really in a pinch in this battle now. Ma Dong ordered: "Mo Ying! Confront Rah, Lu Piao and Noobelist go and kill those small flying bugs, kill as much as you can!" Ma Dong paused for a bit as he looked at the other 16 Direct Disciples of their Master as he ordered them: "Try to block those invisible creatures, they are killing more of our Empire''s soldiers!" The 16 of them nodded and replied: "Yes Senior Brother." After replying, they immediately rushed towards the epicenter of the battle to start aiding their comrades. Ma Dong located all the Invisible enemies he can see in his path as he fought and kill his way to the enemy''s rear, he needed to kill those four-legged creatures no-matter-what. Ma Dong kept getting wounds but he ignored it as he rushed his way in. Ma Dong then ordered the Eternal Royal Army: "All of you guys push forward! We''ll end the war today!" The Eternal Royal Army immediately nodded and replied: "Yes!" as they roared and pushed the front lines. A sea of never-ending enemies are in front of them, but that didn''t end their motivation, their motivation is that they wanted to away the invaders away from their lands. For the first time in the history of their world, Humans, Demons, and Beast are banding together to push away their enemies, the invader of their world. The ones in the front that was getting injured were immediately brought back to the rear to recuperate, while the ones dying were immediately placed at the rear, they wanted to at least have their corpse as a whole to send to their family, and It''s an honor to fight with someone that would sacrifice their lives for the world. Ma Dong smiled as he looked at the massive difference in numbers, they numbered around 200 Million, but the enemies are like billions and billions of ants, a never-ending flow of enemies are witnessed as they arrive one after another. Ma Dong then shouted: "For everyone that die, we shall kill thousands!" "WOAH!" Everyone shouted unitedly as they pushed forward. Ma Dong then shouted: "I`ve already killed more than 10,000 enemies!" Lu Piao immediately responded: "Senior Bro! I got at least 8,000!" Mo Ying laughed as he spoke: "14,000 from me Senior Brother Ma dong." The rest of the disciples immediately responded. "2,000!" "2,400!" "5,600!" "3,0..." Ma Dong shook his head as he shouted: "Either we come victorious after this or we die!" "YES! WAAAA!" Everyone shouted in unison as they surged their spiritual energies fort. ... Within the Dark space that Bugal created. Bugal has been slashing his katars, brandishing it as he continuously struck Zhihao''s body. Zhihao struggled as he kept thinking for a solution. Bugal then spoke to him: "Should I remove my domain? ho ho ho" Zhihao gritted his teeth as he glared at the darkness, then suddenly remembered something from the books he read. Zhihao smiled as he started to do something. Bugal instinctively moved away and stopped his attacks as he prepared to defend against any unexpected attack from Zhihao. Zhihao then started to imitate the one he saw in those books, Zhihao started to lift one of his sword up, while his Blade is within his stomach, Zhihao lifted one of his leg and glared to his front. Bugal was shocked as he saw Zhihao directly looking at him, he got tense and immediately prepared to block any type of attacks. Zhihao then started to gather spiritual energy towards his weapons as he started to move his whole body. Zhihao started to jump in a circular movement as he kept brandishing his weapons as it unleashes waves after waves of sharp energies, slashing the air as it flew across all the directions. Swosh! Swosh! Swosh! Swosh! Bugal was shocked as he blocked the attacks, but the attacks are breaking through his defense as it directly penetrated his skin, instead of blocking he started to evade them, then he saw another shocking thing, his Darkness Domain started to have horizontal holes in it. Bugal panicked for a bit as he retrieved his domain and dodged the rest of the energies slashes. Bagul was shocked when he saw the wounds all over his Brother''s body, he immediately went beside Bugal as he prepared to help Bugal defend the attacks. Zhihao finally got out of the domain as he smiled and looked at the two of them. Zhihao spoke: "That was refreshing." Bagul then noticed all the wounds in Zhihao''s body is already recovering fast. Bugal shook his head and spoke: "I can''t defeat him with my strength alone." Bagul nodded as he summoned his weapon''s final form, a powerful surge of energy immediately rose out of Bagul, the weapon became one and looked like those of a scythe but it''s only about a meter long, with three chains in the read, and at the end of the chains were some sharp spikes covering it. Bugal then shouted: "We shall end it today!" The both of them, Bugal and Bagul immediately dashed forward to clash with Zhihao. But Zhihao had scanned the group of peoples below, they are almost depleted! He needs to do something! But when he came back to his sense, Bugal then appeared in front of him, wielding his katar, while Bagul is in his back wielding a weird weapon. Zhihao immediately burst fort as clashed with the both of them, but this time, Zhihao couldn''t follow up, two of them is really a big challenge to him. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he tried to endure further into the battle. Chapter 136 The War for Supremacy: Reinforcements Within the battlefield, The whole war is already becoming messier by the seconds as it continues on. Ma Dong couldn''t give out any more orders as he''s already almost exhausted, bringing out his whole power just to reach the rear end, but he couldn''t do it as the enemies kept pouring their numbers at him. The rest of the 19 is almost completely exhausted, while the Eternal Royal Army had already decreased their numbers more than a quarter of their original count, while almost half of them had already been either unconscious or fully injured while exhausted. The momentum they had earlier had now vanished, as they went from their offensive push to a defensive stand. Although they were already losing, they still held their wills firm and never gave up. Ma Dong was already almost collapsing and immediately retreated towards his Juniors. Ma Dong looked at the sky afterward, staring at the one-sided battle too, his Master against two powerful beings, he gritted his teeth and shouted. "Like what I said earlier, It''s either we become victorious or we die trying! To me my comrades!" Everyone, immediately burned with passion as they took their second charge, but just then several millions of figures appeared in the sky after Ma Dong and they had charged. Ma Dong felt weak at this sight, they thought that it was the last of their men within the field. Ma Dong slumped down, he then looked at his comrades, but then another shock appeared behind them! They are already surrounded! Another group of silhouettes from behind them appeared, numbering more than hundreds of millions of soldiers. Ma Dong sighed as he shouted: "Master, At least you should live! We''ll hold them for as long as we can! Avenge us!" When everyone heard Ma Dong''s words, they immediately became motivated, if their Lord can live through this savage war, they would definitely have their vengeance through Zhihao''s hands, Their sacrifice would not be in vain. Zhihao looked at them as he pondered, Zhihao then looked at the silhouettes approaching, but not to Ma Dong''s expectation, Zhihao smiled and continued to battle the two, he then shouted. "Men! Reinforcements have arrived!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, all of them immediately looked at the approaching silhouettes, they were the other two groups! Ma Dong then looked behind, and he saw a lot of Human warriors approaching them, from Heavenly Establishment Realm and under! Ma Dong smiled as he spoke: "Comrades! We shall take it to the end! Charge!" They found a second wind of power as they charged and confronted the enemies. Ying Mai, Verushka, Ling Ning''er, and Shen Xiao arrived first as they started their massacre from the rear. The Heavenly establishment realm warriors were from the Kingdoms under Zhihao''s Eternal Glory Empire''s Rule! They came to provide reinforcements too! They immediately pulled out the injured and weakened members of the Eternal Royal Army as they transferred their Spiritual energy to them. The healed, and rejuvenated members of the Eternal Royal Army immediately thanked them as they joined in the war again! Ying Mai and Zhihao''s wives started the slaughter as they kill their way in. The one-sided slaughter before started to become even again, a war that would dictate the fate of their world has is already in the progress. Zhihao smirked as he started fighting again. Bugal and Bagul sighed as the war is indeed going to be dragged longer. They started to pour everything they had to deal with Zhihao. After Bagul and Bugal started to pour their all into it, Zhihao started to sweat as his face darkened. Zhihao immediately cast: "Handsome Circle Skill!" Although it helped, it''s just a minimal advantage. Zhihao then tried to use the Sword dance again. Bugal immediately noticed it as he spoke: "Stop him! Immediately Bagul!" Bagul immediately went wild, his brother only did that expression when they are sparring with their Master before, but now, Bugal actually acted like that towards their opponent, Bagul only knows one thing, and that is, something powerful will be unleashed if Zhihao continued the thing he''ll do. Bagul immediately charged towards Zhihao as he wildly brandished his scythe. Zhihao''s momentum immediately got lost as he started defending. Bugal immediately followed up and charged at Zhihao. Zhihao immediately felt the pressure again, he looked at the war happening below and it''s still in a standstill, now he''s forces are actually exhausted, even the reinforcements. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he Unleashed two of his area of effect skills. "Record of the Burning world!" "Flaming Road of Destruction!" Bagul and Bugal immediately retreated for a second, as they charged again. Although it is nothing much, Zhihao still made a few seconds of break out of the two''s combined bombardment. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he continued to engage the both of them. Ying Mai, Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er saw Zhihao''s predicament, they wanted to help him, but their hands are tied right now. then a figure appeared as it rushing towards them, there were also another 5 of them behind him. It was Han Wentian! Han Wentian immediately spoke: "The five of us will cover one of your position! Help him!" Verushka wanted to go, and so is Ning''er and Xiao''er but then they looked at Ying Mai as they shouted simultaneously: "Ying Mai! Go!" Ying Mai immediately nodded: "Yes, Mistresses!" After speaking, Ying Mai immediately rushed towards Zhihao''s aid. Ying Mai is currently the strongest amongst the four of them, so they immediately sent her to him. Verushka smiled as she spoke to Wentian: "You seriously have a good timing this time." Wentian smiled as he spoke: "Yes, When I detected the sign of two powerful beings coming here, I and my comrades in arm joined together as we rushed getting here." Xiao''er and Ning''er smiled as they spoke: "Thank you." Wentian smiled as he spoke: "No problem, now let''s deal with the problems here!" Although Wentian and the other four were only at Legendary Realm middle stage and peak stage, they could help a lot as well. Ying Mai finally arrived as she did a surprise attack towards Bagul, with her Flame Type cultivation, she''s actually more powerful when she entered Zhihao''s spell range, not as much as Bugal or Bagul, but it''s really gonna be a big help just to delay them for a minute or two. Bagul dodged as he glared madly at Ying Mai. Ying Mai immediately went to Zhihao''s side and spoke: "Master, I`ll delay the other one as much as I can, please finish your business with the other one." Zhihao smiled as he nodded: "Let''s do this then!" Ying Mai and Zhihao rushed towards their enemies immediately, doing each of their duties. Chapter 137 The War for Supremacy: Retrea The entire battlefield has become a huge mess, as corpses and injured beings are scattered throughout the whole area. Zhihao and Ying Mai are still clashing with Bugal and Bagul as they try to kill at least one of them. Zhihao had tried his best, but due to his previous fights, his spiritual energy is being drained more rapidly than ever. Zhihao looked at Bugal and Bagul as they still have a lot of energy left, and it kept increasing every minute. "I guess what that dude before spoke were true, You get energies from your bases." Zhihao snickered after he talks. Bugal smirked as he spoke: "Oh, are you finally running out of energy? that''s good for us then." Just after speaking, Bugal immediately launched continues attacks to Zhihao. Ying Mai saw this and wanted to provide support for Zhihao, but then she was immediately attacked. Bagul chuckled as he spoke: "Where are you going? how dare you look elsewhere while you`re still having a fight with me?" Ying Mai gritted her teeth, she wanted to summon her Battle Arc, but that would drain her remaining Spiritual Energy that is almost close to none. They are currently in a standstill, but once their Spiritual Energy got fully drained, it would definitely be different. Zhihao immediately scanned his surrounding as he thought of any other alternative to turn the tides towards them. but after a few seconds, Zhihao gave up the thought as he shouted. "RETREAT! EVERYONE!" All of them heard Zhihao''s words as they became immediately shocked, but they soon understand something, their Spiritual Energy was running out while their enemies are still fully energized. Zhihao then continued his words: "Verushka, Xiao''er, Ning''er provide them some cover as you guys retreat!, ALL OF YOU GUYS IMMEDIATELY USE THE INTERVAL THAT MY WIVES WILL PROVIDE TO RETREAT!" Everyone gritted their teeth as they don''t want to retreat, but what can they do, they will lose if they don''t. They immediately replied: "Yes Master!" After replying, they immediately went to their defensive formation as they helped the injured and carried the dead, while slowly going into a retreat formation. Bugal smirked as he spoke: "Do you think we''ll just let you leave?" After speaking, Bugal immediately launch continues assault towards Zhihao. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he spoke: "Don''t worry, the both of your heads will be mine sooner or later!" After speaking, Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he spoke. "Ying Mai! Retreat now!" Ying Mai looked at Zhihao still intending to stay, but then she shook her head as she replied: "Yes Master!" Ying Mai immediately supported the Battlefield after retreating. Bagul immediately chased her saying: "Where are you going? We are not done yet!" But before Bagul could chase towards her, Zhihao blocked his path. Zhihao smirked at him as he trusted his sword upwards and spoke: "Don''t go chasing now, or you`ll suffer again! Heavenly Flame Descend! form a Horizont Barrier for me!" After shouting, The clouds made way for what''s to come, as a heavily concentrated flame energy burst downward blocking their chasing path. Zhihao then left a message before leaving: "We''ll be back sooner than you think!" But just right after Zhihao spoke, his spiritual energy got drained after using it all to power up the Heavenly Flame Descend, he immediately shouted. "SOMEONE CATCH ME!" Immediately, three silhouettes appeared beside Zhihao as they supported him, It was Verushka, Xiao''er, and Ning''er. Zhihao immediately ordered: "Immediately return to Eternal Glory Empire!" His three wives were about to say something, but then they remembered their current circumstances and dashed towards the Eternal Glory Empire. Everyone immediately answered: "Yes Master!" Bugal tried to break Zhihao''s skill but it took him at least 10 minutes to do so. after that, Bugal scanned his surroundings as he looked at the Battlefield, the only ones left are billions of corpses of his own men. Bugal gritted his teeth as he spoke: "Make haste! We chase them and obliterate all living creatures in this world!" All of his men immediately nodded as they replied: "Yes!" They immediately gave chase and followed the tracks of Spiritual Energy left behind by the enemies. ... Zhihao and the rest were only halfway through to Eternal Glory Empire, then he noticed that a lot of silhouettes are already on their tails. Zhihao frowned as he spoke to his wives: "Leave me here, I`m going to consume a Sacred Origin Pill, I`ll try to hold them back, just order everyone to recuperate, I won''t be able to hold them much, but I`ll try to last longer and follow you guys again." The three of them wanted to stay too, but looking at the two strong beings, they felt powerless as they nodded. "Be safe." "Don''t leave us for too long, Okay?" "Hmmp! If you`ll ever do something crazy again, I`ll kill you myself!" The three of them spoke as they let down Zhihao. Zhihao swallowed a pill and immediately, his spiritual Energy came back to its original form. Zhihao smirked as he charged immediately towards them. Bugal was shocked when he saw Zhihao charging towards them again, and what''s worst he''s also fully recovered. Bagul then spoke: "He recovered that fast?!" he was shocked by the recovering ability of Zhihao. Zhihao immediately stopped midway as he started his Sword Dance. Bugal immediately widened his eyes as he ordered: "Stop him no matter what!" All of his subordinates immediately rushed toward Zhihao''s location as they bombarded him. Zhihao didn''t mind the damage he took from them, but millions of energy kept hitting him and it''s started to take its toll on his body. Bugal immediately made it in front of Zhihao, but a bad news hit him, Zhihao had already finished his preparation. Zhihao immediately unleashed sharp energies one after another. Bugal and Bagul evaded as they got closer to Zhihao. Bugal immediately rushed as he received a few slashes and succeded grabbing two of Zhihao''s arms. Bagul immediately rushed towards Zhihao''s back as he slashed. "GRAA!" Zhihao immediately bled by the power of the strike as he struggled and broke free of Bugal''s clutch. Zhihao concentrated his spiritual energy onto his fists as he attacked. "Wind Circling Ball!" Bugal tried to block, then he saw his hands getting crushed. Bugal immediately retreated as he spoke: "Attack him!" Millions and millions of concentrated energy blasted from the four-legged creatures and spaceships towards Zhihao. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he received the damage from all direction. Zhihao then attacked one more time. "Heavenly Flame Descend! Make it Rain! Heavenly Flame Descend! Horizontal Barrier!" Zhihao immediately took another Sacred Origin Pill, this is his last time that he could actually take one, after that, he immediately retreated after pouring half of his power and retreated. Bugal noticed this as he immediately shouted. "Energy Barrier!" Bagul noticed the wide area that Bugal wanted to cover, their whole army. Bagul joined him as he shouted. "Energy Barrier!" Almost more than a quarter of their army had been decimated, but at least, there were still more than half of their original army. Bugal looked at his army and immediately shouted: "I`ll definitely kill you!" Chapter 138 The War for Supremacy: The Final Stand Bugal limped down as he sat on the ground, Bagul joined him as they waited for their energy to be refilled. The massive barrier they created used almost all of their stored energy. Bugal then spoke: "We''ll rest for now, I`ll need to recharge my energy." Bagul then continued: "Yes Brother." Bagul immediately sat down as he spoke: "We''ll rest here for now as we refill our energy tanks, Rah! Come here!" Just after finishing his words, Rah immediately came forward. "Ready to receive orders." Bagul then spoke: "How many goliaths have you made in this world?" Rah was shocked, then just shook his head and spoke: "We''ve only made two of them." Bagul nodded as he spoke: "Bring those two here, We''ll wait until you arrive before we give chase again." Rah immediately bowed as he replied: "Yes, It will be done immediately!" After speaking, Rah immediately waited for the Heavenly Flame Descend to vanish. He then spoke. "So we''re going all out now, or nothing at all." Bagul then shouted at him: "Also bring the Mothership!" Rah, this time was speechless, the Battleship is where they send their signals to the closest scouts in the universe, but if they''ll use it now, that would be a loss of connection if they lose the battle, it will take decades for any reinforcements to come, or to know their current status. ... Zhihao flew after releasing his skill, he then counted the ones he had killed using almost all of his power, he barely killed a quarter of them in total, about 3 Billion enemies. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he increased his phase. Eternal Glory Empire. Zhihao finally came back and immediately shouted. "Everyone! Fully replenish your Spiritual energy, They will arrive here anytime now!" "YES!" Everyone replied as they started to gather Spiritual Energy from the Earth. Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er immediately came towards Zhihao and hugged him. Ning''er then cried as she spoke: "Please don''t leave us, Okay?" Zhihao then asked: "Why do you even think that I`ll even leave you?" Zhihao smiled as he patted Ning''er''s head. Ning''er then spoke as tears in her eyes flowed down: "I kept having this ominous feeling that you`ll be leaving." Verushka then tightened her hug as she spoke: "I have the same feeling." Xiao''er then nodded repeatedly as tears flowed down to their cheeks. Zhihao was shocked, he then thought of what the System spoke of years ago. Zhihao then had a bad feeling about this as he looked at where their enemies would come from. He then spoke: "Don''t worry, I`ll try my best to survive this, You`ll just have to believe me and wait for me, no matter what, Okay?" The three of them nodded as they hugged Zhihao tighter. Zhihao then spoke: "Let''s recover our Spiritual Energy first." The three of them finally let go as they nodded and sat beside Zhihao. Zhihao then looked at a Silhouette near them and spoke. "Wentian, Thanks for coming to our aid." Wentian smiled as he spoke: "Don''t worry about it, If you guys lost, we would be the next target, It''s just us that wanted to prevent that too." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Let''s recuperate for now." Wentian nodded as he, and the other four sat and started to recover their Spiritual Energy. ... After a few hours, Zhihao''s Heavenly Flame descend finally vanished. Bagul immediately ordered Rah to go and wait for his order when he got there. After a few minutes, Rah finally arrived as he contacted Bagul. "I am in the hanger now, Vice Commander." Bagul nodded as he replied: "Wait there, My Brother and I will summon a Void gate." "Yes!" Bagul looked at his Brother, Bugal and spoke: "Brother, We need to summon a Void gate." Bugal immediately nodded as they both concentrated their energy. Bugal flew up in the sky more than a kilometer away, while Bagul stayed down in the ground, the both of them immediately connected their Energy, and as such, a crack within the air can be seen. Bugal and Bagul immediately opened their arms wide as the crack extended as it finally became something like a big gate! Immediately, after the big gate was formed, a silhouette of a mechanical thing slowly walked out of the portal, one by one, all of its limbs slowly got out of the Portal, and soon, its the whole body finally got out, every step it takes sent tremble to the Earth as it walked out of the portal. The head looked like a big bean while emitting clear neon blue lights going out of it its big eye within the center of its head, Something as big as a mountain had appeared, It looked like a Giant Metal crab! After a while, the other one slowly got out together with Rah. Bugal looked at Rah as he spoke: "Is it fully energized?" Rah nodded as he replied: "Yes Vice Commander, It has been fully energized." Bugal nodded as he spoke: "Good! We march now!" "YES!" All of them marched with the same phase as the Goliath and headed towards Zhihao''s Eternal Glory Empire. ... Eternal Glory Empire. Zhihao felt the fluctuation of Energy as he spoke: "Two Mythical Realm pinnacle power? Have another two of those monsters arrived? or is it something else?" Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er walked closer to Zhihao, standing by his side, Immediately, One after the other came following them, Han Wentian and the other four, Ying Mai, Ma Dong, and the rest of Zhihao''s Direct Disciples stood by his side. Every cultivator, weak or strong had stood behind the walls of Eternal Glory Empire, The ones Living within the Eternal Glory Empire, and also the Kingdom''s around it, even the Sacred Ground sects of the Human Race had behind Zhihao. Zhihao looked around as he saw the fighting spirit burning within their eyes, prepared to do what''s needed for them to survive this crisis, Zhihao smiled as he looks at all of them then spoke. "We shall make our final stand here!" "Yes!" Every living soul within the Whole of the Cultivation World had responded to the call of survival, The final stand that they would do. Failing is not an option starting today. Chapter 139 The War for Supremacy: Believe Eternal Glory Empire. Zhihao frowned as they are closing in every second. Zhihao then asked the system: ''I need a very powerful skill, that can kill a Demi-God with my current cultivation'' *Ding!* =No such things had been found. Zhihao gritted his teeth and asked again: ''I need something where I could pour everything I had in a single strike, focusing my whole Spiritual Energy to that skill!'' *Ding!* =Found four skills, A list will be made below. -Heavenly Pierce -Sovereign''s Mighty Howl -Dance of the Piercing Dragon -Thunder God''s Offering Zhihao immediately picked Heavenly Pierce and learned it, It definitely is something that would definitely be helpful later, but just after learning the skill, Zhihao immediately felt the land beneath him tremble. Zhihao immediately shouted: "Prepare!" "YES!" Everyone answered and immediately prepared themselves. Then after just a few moments, They saw two gigantic silhouettes appearing as it slowly walks towards them. Zhihao immediately figured out that those two were the ones emitting the Mythical Realm Pinnacle cultivation. Zhihao immediately ordered: "We shall hold them from entering the walls! Heavenly Establishment Realm! Bring all the citizens to the center of the City!" The enemies came closer and closer as Bugal had finally come in full view. Bugal immediately shouted: "You will die today!" his shout reverberated through the whole area as they rushed towards the Eternal Glory Empire. Zhihao ignored Bugal and shouted: "Prepare your strongest range skill!" "Yes!" Everyone answered in unison. Bugal and his army were about 5 Kilometers away. "HOLD!" Zhihao kept thinking of the proper distance to launch their attacks. When the enemies were about 1 kilometer away, Zhihao immediately ordered. "Fire!" Millions of Concentrated Spiritual energies were released, as it turned into different kinds of Elements, Fire, Water, Earth, and Wind Elements poured down from the sky. Bugal frowned as he shouted: "Protect yourselves!" "YES!" They raised their barriers and braced themselves for the impact. The bombardment of elemental energy bombarded them as their barriers shattered one after another. Zhihao seeing the effectiveness of union attack is effective, then ordered again: "Fire at will!" Zhihao wouldn''t want them to recover after that massive bombardment and ordered a very effective second one. Bugal gritted his teeth as he ordered: "Goliath! Attack!" When Bugal ordered that, The Goliath immediately gathered a concentrated energy within its center. Seeing this, Zhihao immediately shouted: "DODGE! NOW!" Zhihao''s warning was a little too late, more than 10,000 of his subordinates had been either killed or injured after that concentrated laser energy hit them, destroying the castle wall. Zhihao then Shouted: "Verushka, Ning''er, Wentian, Xiao''er, and all of my Direct Disciples, Immediately deal with those Giant things! Eternal Royal Guards! Forward as you obliterate the enemies in front! Divine Realm Middle stage and below to only to provide back up as you continuously use your skills, and pull out the injured ones!" "Yes!" Everyone immediately answered as they rushed forward. Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai as he spoke: "Ying Mai! Kill Rah and join me immediately!" Ying Mai nodded as she answered: "Yes Master!" Zhihao immediately rushed towards Bugal and Bagul after hearing Ying Mai''s reply. ... Somewhere within the Midst of the Citizens. a lot of cries can be heard, and also started a praying session within themselves. A voice then was heard. "Mom, I`m scared" Everyone looked at the one that spoke as they felt scared too, imagining what would happen if their warriors actually lose. Her Mother replied shackingly: "Don''t worry my good daughter, Our Lord will protect us" Her Brother also replied: "Yeah! our Lord is very powerful. don''t worry Minyi, we''ll definitely be scared." All of the men immediately felt assured after hearing the Mother and Son duo speaking highly of their Lord, but it immediately went down from the little Lady''s next words. "But why did they retreat then?" The Mother and Son duo''s face immediately sank as they don''t know how to reply to the child''s question. Those words immediately struck them and became solemn as they bowed and prayed again. But then a person fell from the sky towards them, a crater immediately formed where he fell, he was blasted away by the enemy''s concentrated energy strikes. The men and women of all ages became scared, then the one that fell stood up, they immediately asked. "Are you alright?" "How is everything there?" "Are you doing good?" The one that fell was actually one of Zhihao''s direct Disciple. he just smiled at them and replied: "Our Master would not let anything happen to you guys, that''s why we are fighting for you guys, right?" Hearing his words, they immediately smiled as they nodded. "My name is Noobelist, I`m one of Master''s Direct Disciple, don''t worry, all of us are doing everything we can do to kick those invaders to where they came from!" Noobelist immediately walked but then a sharp pain caused him to kneel. All of them were shocked as they also saw blood flowing out of his mouth, they were about to help him but then. Noobelist stood up as he spoke. "Don''t worry, It''s just a physical injury, I`ll just consume a pill for now." After speaking, Noobelist immediately swallowed a pill as he circulated the effects of it around his body, after just a few minutes, he stood up as he spoke. "Belive in us, Believe in our Master, Believe the ruler of our Empire, Zhong Zhihao, the strongest man in our world." with that said, he immediately rushed back to the battle. All of the citizen''s eyes brightened as they nodded. One of them then spoke. "Why are we even getting afraid for? They are fighting there risking their lives for us, and we''re safe here but we''re still getting scared? Are you guys such cowardly men?" "Yeah! don''t let our previous failures become the best of us! I`ll help! Even if it''s just bringing the injured and providing something like foods and water would be good." "Yeah! me too!" "Me too!" "Me!" "And me!" All of them immediately burned with passion as they rushed out of their safety hole. "Elderly and children should stay here, It`ll motivate us to know that our family is still safe!" "Yeah! Let''s go!" Everyone immediately rushed out, they wanted to help even if it''s for a little thing. Chapter 140 The War for Supremacy: A Great Cloud of Energy Eternal Glory Kingdom. Normal Citizens had poured out of their hiding as they assisted the injured warriors from their Empire. This made the progress of recuperating doubled as the healed ones immediately went back to battle. A lot of the civilians were caught in the skirmishes of two opposite powers, some are getting injured, while others immediately died, but they kept a will and resolve inside their hearts at all time. -We''re fighting together with them, even if rescuing the injured are the only thing we can do. -They are dying, and getting injured because of us, how can we just stood by watching them fight for us! -Even if we are Mortals, we are the Mortals of Eternal Glory Empire! -To live and die together with the warriors, as a very honorable thing to do for us Mortals. -We won''t ever be afraid of death if it''s to increase our chance of winning. -A rescued warrior is a rescued chance! -You invaders shall suffer the wrath of our warriors! Different kinds of motivation pulled them to do what was thought to be impossible, never-ending fires of energy kept getting inside the Empire''s walls, as they continued rescuing their inured and fallen comrades. Zhihao noticed this as he smiled, He immediately looked at Bugal as he spoke: "You shall die today!" Zhihao concentrated his Spiritual Energy in his body as he charged forward to Bugal. Bugal smirked as he replied: "Let''s see if you can make me!" Bugal immediately charged to confront Zhihao. Immediately, when the both of them clashed, a strong wave bursts out from their weapon as the both of them continued slashing each other. Immediately, when the both of their attacked collided, a strong wave bursts out from their weapons clashing, ignoring the force they emitted, the both of them continued slashing at each other aiming to kill the one in front of them. ... Close to where Zhihao and Bugal are fighting, Ying Mai had already engaged Bagul for several minutes now. Ying Mai is already getting pushed back as her Spiritual Energy had once again been depleted. Ying Mai then lost focused for a bit as she blacked out but immediately regained her focus. Ying Mai then looked at where Bagul was before. She then spoke out of confusion after Bagul disappeared. "Where..." But before she could finish, she immediately felt a cold blade entered the skin in her back. "HAAAK!" Ying Mai screamed as she vomited a mouth full of blood, she immediately flew a distance away and put her defense up. Bagul then spoke: "Blanking in the middle of a fight with someone stronger than you is a no-no." Ying Mai glared at Bagul as she gritted her teeth. Ying Mai then scanned the damage Bagul had done to her, her face immediately darkened as she spoke. "Poison?" Bagul chuckled as he spoke: "Yep! You won''t be living for long now." Ying Mai smiled as she spoke: "Not a big deal to me!" After speaking, Ying Mai''s Spiritual Energy burst as heat energy rushed through her body. "Booom!" A loud explosion came from her back as Ying Mai''s Spiritual Energy turned into flames, dissolving the poison. Bagul was shocked, he then looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "You are Mad!" "GRAAA!" Ying Mai also received some damages, but still, it is better than dying from poison and dragging her incompetence towards her Master. "Huff... Huff... Huff... It''s time for round two then." Just right after she spoke, She immediately dashed forward to clash with Bagul enduring the pain she''s currently having. Bagul smiled as he spoke: "If poison wouldn''t work much, then I`ll just kill you directly!" Bagul and Ying Mai then continued their clash, then they both heard something. "Heavenly Pierce!" Woooosh! A very powerful aura immediately went past by them and made them stunned for a bit, it was too powerful, that the both of them stopped doing what they were doing. It was something that can be told to had come from the Heavens itself. Ying Mai immediately stopped as she looked at Bagul and the one that shouted, It was Zhihao. Bagul then slowly turned back as he looked at the one that shouted, Bagul is trembling as blood flowed from his lips. They immediately heard another shout, and this time, It was from Bugal. "You! I`ll definitely kill you!" Bugal rushed towards Zhihao prepared to kill him. Bagul immediately pointed at Zhihao as he spoke: "You! You are playing dirty!" After speaking, Bagul fell from the sky as he vomits and continuously loses a lot of blood. Zhihao then snickered as he spoke: "You like backstabbing so much, can''t take it if it''s done to you? That''s lame." Bugal gritted his teeth wanting to kill Zhihao, but seeing the huge hole that was made in Bagul body, he immediately went to catch him. Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai as he spoke: "Let''s retreat for now!" Ying Mai immediately nodded as she flew to Zhihao side. Zhihao looked at the Battlefield and then immediately returned to the walls. The Battlefield had slowly, but in a steady manner headed towards victory, The two Goliaths are almost destroyed too. Zhihao smiled at the sight of it as he immediately returned to the walls. Zhihao then threw a pill to Ying Mai as he spoke: "Recover, We''ll fight them immediately as soon as they arrived." Ying Mai nodded as she spoke: "Yes Master." Zhihao and Ying Mai immediately sat in a meditation position as they gathered their Spiritual Energy again. ... Someone in the Enemy''s side. Bagul and Bugal are in the area. Bugal spoke as he tried to heal Bagul''s wounds: "Little Brother, Don''t give up on me, you are the only one I have living in this universe." Bagul smirked as blood flow from his mouth, he then spoke: "Bro, I think I know my own situation better than you do." Bugal immediately trembled as he spoke: "Stop talking, I`ll heal you, trust me." Bagul smiled as he spoke: "I don''t know brother, But I guess, I`ll just have to go first before you." Bugal immediately slumped as he saw his little Brother dying. Bagul then spoke: "Brother, let''s do that, Let me be with you as you become stronger, okay?" Bugal slowly nodded as tears flowed from his eyes, he then spoke: "I`ll avenge you, don''t worry." Bagul smirked again as he nodded. Bagul then shook as he shouted. "GRAAAA!" Bagul''s body is transforming as his body blurred, slowly, his body started to become cloudy, turning into a pure energy. Bugal cried as he also did the same. "GRAAAAA!" Their body of energy went into the sky as it formed into a cloud like a thing, merging the two different type of blue colored energy. Bagul spoke his last word: "Bro! I`ll go first." After speaking, Bagul''s energy was swallowed by Bugal''s as they merged into one, Continuously, a surge of powerful aura emitted from the strange ball of energy that Bugal and Bagul''s body had merged into. Chapter 141 The War for Supremacy: Bugals Power Within the walls of the Eternal Glory Empire. Zhihao and Ying Mai are both trying to recover as much as they can. But after an hour, Zhihao only recovered half of his Spiritual energy as he suddenly heard a notification, and this time, It was definitely a loud one. *DING!* =WARNING! WARNING! Zhihao wanted to ask what it was about, then another notification popped up. *Ding!* =Someone is breaking through to God''s Realm Lower stage. Zhihao''s face immediately darkened as he looked at the Dark Blue cloud forming behind the mountains, Zhihao immediately stood up preparing to charge and stop it, but he then heard another one. *Ding!* =You won''t be able to do anything, even if you go there, try to recover as much Spiritual Energy as you can. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he sat down in a meditation position and gathered Spiritual Energy again. Ying Mai saw everything but paid no heed to it as she only knows how to trust his judgment now, she immediately went back to collecting Spiritual Energy. ... After another hour, Zhihao stood up finally filling up all the Spiritual Energy in his body, he then looked at the Battlefield as he saw the state of the war. The two Goliath''s had already fallen, while the enemies are getting pushed back now, It''s almost clear that they are finally winning. Zhihao then looked at the giant concentrated blue cloud within the horizon, Zhihao gritted his teeth as he joined the Battle. Zhihao rushed towards the Battle in within just a few minutes of time, the enemies had finally decreased tremendously, only about 10 million of them left, then he immediately felt something as he looked at the horizon. *Ding!* =Bugal had successfully broken through to God''s Realm! After the announcement, a powerful explosion erupted from where the blue cloud came from, Zhihao''s expression drastically changed as he looked at where the Cloud of Energy had been gathering. The blue cloud of concentrated energy had finally finished its preparation as it started to grow smaller, as it morphed into a humanoid shaped energy, then afterward, Armors appeared covering its whole body and within just a few minutes, it had already finished transforming. "RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" A shout that reverberated throughout the whole area was heard together with a very suppressing aura filled with killing intents as it started to push them back. Zhihao prepared for what''s to come as he withdrew his sword and blade, but then Bugal spoke. "I`ll let you feel what it would be like to lose someone!" Bugal looked at the Battlefield as he stretched one of his arms, a concentrated energy gathered in Bugal''s palm in a size of a bean as he aimed at the Battlefield. Zhihao looked at where he was pointing and became shocked, those were his twenty Direct Disciples, Zhihao immediately shouted. "Ma Dong! All Of you! GET OUT NOW! RETREAT!" When they heard Zhihao''s shout, Ma Dong and the rest immediately tried to follow as they flew away in all directions, After that, they immediately felt a very strong surge of aura coming from their side and looked at it. They saw a silhouette of a humanoid flying in the sky, aiming at them with a densely concentrated energy in his hands, Their facial expression immediately darkened as they saw it''s powerful energy, they then scattered through the air as they run at the maximum of their limits. Bugal chuckled as he shouted: "FUTILE EFFORTS!" Just right after speaking, Bugal released the energy he gathered in his hand Aiming at the scattering figures, The tiny bean sized energy expanded and grew as it shot towards the twenty of them, it has suddenly became the same size as a mountain. Seeing this scene, Zhihao''s eyes widened immediately as he rushed towards them, but before he could reach half of the distance, he immediately stopped as he saw 8 of his Direct Disciples falling from the sky. Zhihao''s eyes redened as he shouted. "Cui Jianhong!" "Feng Chang!" "Deng Wuying!" "Wan Zedong!" "Han Xieren!" "Wang Su!" "Shao Xiang!" "Wen Qigang!" Zhihao''s heart ached after seeing his Disciples dying in front of his very own eyes. The energy that Bugal shot was enough to kill even him, he felt helpless as he slowly descended from where his Direct Disciples had fallen, he picked them up one by one as tears flowed down from his eyes. Bugal smirked as he spoke: "I like the look in your face, Hahahahaha" After speaking, he just looked at the despair in Zhihao''s face and felt utter joy in it. Zhihao couldn''t hear anything at all as he kept laying them one after the other, Ma Dong and the rest felt their heart tightened as they also picked up their fallen comrades, blood flowed down from their faces from the sight of it, It was their companions of both hardship and joy, the ones they spent so much time through the course that they had become Zhihao''s Direct Disciples. Everyone within the Battlefield saw the scene as they fell to their knees and dropped their weapons, utter despair can be seen in their eyes. Even their great Lord, their Master who they revered to be Supreme couldn''t do anything, how can they win the war now. Hopelessness, Desperation, Anguish, Hatred, Sadness, every emotion that can display their current predicament had already shown from everyone within the Battlefield. Bugal laughed loudly as he spoke: "I love this feeling! You all shall die slowly by my hands now!" Zhihao hearing this became enraged as he immediately flew up in the Sky glaring madly at Bugal, he then spoke a word to Ma Dong and the rest. "Take care of your brothers and sisters, I`ll handle the rest!" Ma Dong and everyone else nodded as they cried tears of blood, they immediately took their dead Brother and Sister''s back to the Empire''s walls. Bugal smirked after hearing Zhihao''s word and replied: "Oh, how can you even protect them when you can''t protect yourself?" Zhihao gritted his teeth preparing to engage Bugal, but then Bugal spoke again. "Let''s see how you can take it yourself then!" After speaking, Bugal immediately concentrated another energy within his hands as he aimed it at Zhihao. Zhihao, enraged immediately drew his sword as he rushed towards Bugal with the intent of Killing him. Bugal seeing this immediately smiled, he then waved his hands as he pushed Zhihao out of the way and spoke again. "Now, now, don''t be in such a rush, I want to see more of your Despair." Bugal immediately looked at the ones that destroyed the Goliaths and aimed his hands towards them. Zhihao immediately stabilized himself and looked at where Bugal was pointing his hands. Zhihao''s face immediately darkened as he saw them, the one Bugal is pointing at were where his Wives, Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er are at. Zhihao immediately got enraged as he shouted: "DON''T YOU DARE!!" Bugal now smiled wickedly as his eyes seemed like he had gone mad from the Joy of seeing Zhihao''s face. Bugal happily spoke: "HAHAHAH, Let me see you try stopping me again!" The energy within Bugal''s hand started to grow as it slowly released it''s prowess. Zhihao immediately cried as rushed towards his wives. Desperation, Anguish, and Hatred can be seen within his eyes as he shouted. "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Chapter 142 The War for Supremacy: The Almightys Power. within the Battlefield. Ning''er, Xiao''er, and Verushka were looking at Bugal''s hand as the concentrated energy was released directed at them. Everyone saw the mighty burst of power that came from Bugal. All of them felt their heartache, their Lord''s wives this time would have to suffer the same fate the same with their Lord''s 8 disciples. All of them couldn''t help but close their eyes as tears flowed out of their eyes, praying for a miracle to happen. Zhihao is crying tears of blood as he rushed forward to shield the three of them, then he heard their voices. "Husband, It''s okay, just be sure to avenge us okay?" Xiao''er looked at Zhihao as tears flowed from her eyes down to her cheeks. "Honey, don''t you dare follow us too early, we''ll kill you in the afterlife if you do!" Verushka smiled after speaking, she had revealed the most cheerful smile she could ever do as her tears are threatening to drop from her eyes. "Be sure to take care of our Sons and Daughter after you kill these invaders okay? Fight for us husband." Ning''er smiled as she spoke and clenched her fist toward''s Zhihao, trying to encourage him to live on. Zhihao''s chest tightened as he felt despair and shouted in rage. "NO! I WON''T EVER LET YOU THREE DIE!" Just right after shouting, Zhihao''s Spiritual Energy exploded, as the surge of power came to him continuously, he then heard a notification. *Ding!* =You`ve opened the 3rd Skill of the Berserker God''s Bloodline. Berserker God''s Sin, Divine Dragon''s Wrath. Cultivation power had temporarily advanced to Demi-God''s Realm Pinnacle stage. Zhihao ignored the notification as he continued to rush to his three wives, then he heard a voice. "Kid, Have you already forgotten me? I already made a vow to the heavens, after all, Just focus on your fight." After the words had been spoken, a silhouette of a turtle had gone out of his body as it quickly teleported to where his three wives are. A thundering roar then immediately sounded. "Hmmp! A mere God Realm lower stage dare show its powers in front of the ones I seek to protect!" A surge of powerful aura burst forth, emerging from the silhouette''s body as it formed a shield like a wall that looked like a turtle''s shell. The silhouette then smirked as he spoke: "I am Amro! The Sacred Beast snai... TURTLE!" The energy that Bugal had shot out of his hands bounced upward as it clashed with the Turtlelike wall. Bugal was shocked that his energy was bounced just like that, he then heard the silhouette spoke. "Now take my attack!" Amro immediately gathered his Heavenly Energy and formed a Turtle shield above Bugal''s head as it descended. Bugal became paralyzed due to the overwhelming power that''s coming from the Turtle Shell that floated above his head, he became scared as fear struck his heart. It then immediately hit Bugal''s head and made a loud noise. "TOK!" Everyone that has seen just what happened opened their eyes in shock as they all thought inside their heads. ''It didn''t do any damage!?'' Amro coughed as he spoke: "Ah, Kid you should continue your fight with him instead, I`m the Sovereign of defense, So I can''t even do any sort of damage." Everyone immediately fell to the ground as they looked towards Amro with a single thought in their head. ''Why did you even attack then!'' Amro looked at Zhihao''s wives as he spoke: "Hello Ladies, I`m Zhihao''s buddy, I vowed to protect all of you, My name is Amro." Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er smiled at him. Ning''er and Xiao''er then spoke: "Thank you." Verushka, on the other hand, realized something and spoke. "Then... why did you just appeared now?" Amro coughed as he looked in the other way not replying. "Ahem." Verushka immediately got what he was trying to do as she spoke:" YOU!!! YOU!!! BRING BACK OUR TEARS!" Amro ignored them as he continuously coughed to avoid the topic. Zhihao on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief as he spoke. "Thank you, Amro." Amro just smiled as he replied: "No worries kid, I got your back, Now finish your work with him. Zhihao smiled as he immediately turned to Bugal and rushed towards him Amro then spoke another word: "Kid, he''s still too powerful for you, be more careful." After speaking, something flew down Amro''s lips as he thought inside his head. ''D*mnit!, I only had recovered 5% of my ability, and I already over-exerted my self.'' Amro immediately wiped his lips as he pretended that nothing had happened to him. Zhihao heard Amro''s words and looked back, then he saw Amro slightly trembling, he gritted his teeth as he thought. ''He used a very big amount of his power just to create those shields, so he still hasn''t recovered his power yet, I need to finish this as soon as possible.'' Zhihao looked at Bugal as he rushes to him, he then spoke: "You`ll die Bugal, for invading our World, Harming the People under my protection, and attempted Murder on my wives! Those offenses will be judged that you`ll be sentenced to death!" Bugal hearing Zhihao''s words finally calmed down as he thought: ''So I can''t kill those that that Creature is guarding.'' Bugal then looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "Let''s see if you have what it takes!" After speaking, Bugal concentrated energies within his hands preparing to fight Zhihao head on. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he shouted back at Bugal: "Bring it on!" Chapter 143 The War for Supremacy: God of Death The Battle immediately continued, as Zhihao''s people picked up their weapons and charged through the rest of the enemies. Ma Dong and the rest burst into power as they tried to eliminate the rest of the enemies, wanting to aid Zhihao in his combat. Zhihao rushed towards Bugal as he tried to attack him head on, but it immediately failed as a shock was written all over his face. Bugal casually waved his hands as he blew Zhihao away with his energy. Bugal then casually spoke: "You have indeed become powerful, but not powerful enough!" Zhihao was about to charge again, but a silhouette appeared by his side and spoke. "Master! I''ve fully recovered." It is Ying Mai, she had finally recovered her full power as she prepared to aid Zhihao, then another group of silhouettes followed, It is Ma Dong and the rest of Zhihao''s Direct Disciples, they immediately spoke. "Master, We''re here!" Zhihao calmed down a bit as he ordered. "All of you, distance yourself, I`ll try my best to hold my ground against him, while all of you give him your best skills!" All of them nodded as they replied: "Yes!" Zhihao immediately rushed towards Bugal as he spoke: "This time, It will be different!" Bugal casually smiled as he spoke: "Additional puny creatures won''t help much!" Just right after speaking, Bugal went berserk as he unleashed his power and threw it in the sky. Zhihao''s face went dark as he shouted: "TAKE COVER! PROTECT YOURSELF!" Ying Mai and the rest became shocked, but immediately, the concentrated Energy gathering in the sky had scattered to thousands and thousands of energies. Ying Mai immediately summoned her Battle Arc as she shouted: "Come under my Arc now!" Ma Dong and the rest immediately dashed towards the bottom of the Arc, then they saw two silhouettes that were still a little far away. It is Noobelist and Xun Ai. Ma Dong, Mo Ying, and Lu Piao were about to get the two of them, but Ying Mai immediately stopped them as she spoke. "It''s too late!" Ying Mai clenched her fist and tried to form a barrier, Zhihao noticed the two of them as he immediately dashed towards the two of them trying to at least save them both, but before he could react, he heard Bugal shout. "FALL DOWN AND OBLITERATE MY FOES!" After the shout, the energies that was hovering in the Sky shot down towards the ground with incredible speed. Noobelist noticing that the both of them wouldn''t be able to make it, he smirked as he spoke. "Xun Ai, Please protect our Juniors in my stead, okay?" Noobelist immediately gathered all his Spiritual Energy within his hands after speaking. Xun Ai looked at Noobelist and then spoke: "Senior Brother, what are you talki..." but before she could continue talking, she saw Noobelist released a powerful Spiritual Energy that he had gathered in his hands in her direction. Noobelist then shouted. "ALL MIGHTY PUSH!" It was a skill that he just created within this instant. Xun Ai was shocked as she was pushed by Noobelist''s skill, It felt like she was being pushed by a soft yet powerful cotton like power, Xun Ai looked at Noobelist and witnessed a very horrible scene as she screamed. "SENIOR BROTHER! NOOOO!" Noobelist''s body had been penetrated by the massive downpour from Bugal''s skill, piercing through every part of his body, he tried to dodge everything avoiding his vitals being hit, but with thousands of Energies raining down at him, he could barely live. Ma Dong immediately caught Xun Ai as he dispersed the pushing force that came from Noobelist''s power. Ying Mai''s Battle Arc received almost 90% of Bugal''s power, and the Battle Arc immediately vanished after receiving a fatal destruction to its exteriors. Ying Mai and the rest didn''t bother about the Battle Arc though, they just looked at what happened to the two, Noobelist, and Mei Mei. Ma Dong immediately lets go of Xun Ai as he went towards Noobelist''s body. After just Arriving Ma Dong took Noobelist''s away together with them, he then spoke. "You`ll live, you understand? You`ll definitely live! That''s an order!" Noobelist smiled as the lights in his eyes dimmed, he then spoke. "huff...Senior Brother huff... Ma, I feel huff... very heroic today." Ma Dong smiled noticing Noobelist''s life force going away in a rather fast phase, he then replied. "Yes, I saw it." Noobelist smiled as he continued: "I huff... also felt huff... very handsome huff... doing that." Ma Dong''s eyes immediately became wet as he nodded and replied: "Yeah, That was very accurate of you." Noobelist chuckled as he continued: "haha arg.. huff, I`m a little wet huff... by the blood huff... all over huff... my body, but I still looked huff... look good." Ma Dong nodded again as he replied: "You definitely looked good out there." Noobelist smiled with his teeth revealed and tears immediately flowed down from his eyes and continued. "I still looked good, haha, I looked good." Ma Dong was about to reply, but then his chests felt pained when he noticed something, Noobelist''s life force had been fully consumed, Noobelist died exactly at this moment. Ma Dong gritted his teeth as he returned back with the group, they immediately descended from the sky as they placed Noobelist''s body with the rest. Xun Ai''s body immediately trembled at the sight of Noobelist''s death, he was very dear to them, he was one of their role models, he made them laughed countless times, and struggled with them through pain and hardship, now, one of the few people that they had looked up too had also laid his life, saving Xun Ai. All of them immediately stood up as they glared at Bugal. Ma Dong immediately ordered: "Let''s help our Master now!" Everyone immediately replied. "YES!" All of them charged forward as they gathered energies within their body preparing to launch an assault. Ying Mai followed suit as she prepared to Aid her Master. Bugal then spoke: "Hahaha, I guess one is not enough..." but before he could finish, he felt a very strange surge of energy and immediately looked at it, It was Zhihao standing in front of him with some distance. Zhihao''s heart went cold seeing Noobelist while remembering his other Direct Disciples that had died due to Bugal, he then also remembered the countless lives that had died protecting their world, a Notification immediately popped up in his mind. *Ding!* =A Forbidden technique had been activated, Due to the combination of Host''s three skills. *Ding!* =Berserker God''s Rage, Berserker God''s Wrath, and Berserker God''s Sin, Divine Dragon''s Wrath had been combined into one. *Ding!* =You''ve activated Berserker God Asura''s Contract, God of Death had been summoned. -Warning, the negative effects will depend on Host''s cultivation, and in certain circumstances lead to Death. Zhihao''s aura immediately changed as the bluish Spiritual Energy he was releasing turned to black, invisible arms grew behind his shoulder, while wings sprouted in his back, and a horn grew in his forehead. Zhihao''s dark eyes looked at Bugal as he spoke: "Hohoho, so you are the poor soul that this kid wants dead, I guess it leaves me no choice now eh?" Chapter 144 The War for Supremacy: Reunion In the sky, two silhouettes can look down on all the beings below. Zhihao''s bearing changed after the Asura''s soul, The God of Death had entered his body. The pure black aura covering Zhihao felt like it could burn anything that came close to it. Zhihao''s three wives looked at him with fear in their eyes. Ning''er immediately spoke to the other two: "What has happened to him, is that still our husband?" Xiao''er just shook in fear as she slumped down to the ground. Verushka also felt fear inside her as she replied: "That... I don''t really know now." The three of them looked at Zhihao wondering just what happened, is that guy really their husband? Zhihao then chuckled as he looked at Bugal and spoke: "In which way would you like to die?" Although Bugal hasn''t noticed that Zhihao had another soul within his body, he certainly can feel the overpowered Spiritual Energy coming out of him. Zhihao just sighed as he spoke: "Flying is a little tiring, we should just go to the ground now, It would be better to fight there too." After speaking, Zhihao landed on the ground slowly, he then looked around after landing then he noticed Zhihao''s wives and smiled, he slowly walked towards them and spoke. "So you are my contractor''s Wives? not bad, not bad." After speaking, Zhihao tried to touch Ning''er''s cheeks, but before he could, Ning''er evaded his hand as she spoke. "Who are you? and what have you done to my husband?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "Don''t worry, so long as your husband Is alive, I can''t do anything to you, but when he dies, I`ll get to control his body, even if it''s only a single finger left, ku.. kuku.. hooo." Verushka frowned as she spoke: "What do you mean by that, when our husband dies, you`ll take over his body?" Zhihao snickered this time as he observed the wives of the Body''s Owner and replied: "Yep, well That depends on how long he can last, and after I take over his body, I`ll have my own body to use." The three of them glared as they spoke: "My husband will live for a much more longer time than you`d expect." The Death God inside Zhihao then replied: "Hahahaha, who cares how long? I have already been waiting for millions of years, and through the course of the time that I had to spend, within the span of100 billion years, I already overtook 15 bodies, and those bodies were the bodies of Gods, more powerful than the one you are facing right now, what''s there to be afraid of, waiting for another million years?" The three of them went silent as they frowned. The Death God then spoke again: "Or I could take his soul instead, right after the contract ends hihihi..." But before he could finish, the Death God heard something inside Zhihao''s head. *Ding!* =I`d appreciate it if you don''t care the host''s wives. The Death God frowned as he snickered: "So, someone has already chosen this body? how come I got contracted? how weak are you?" Right after speaking, the Death God''s consciousness immediately went inside Zhihao''s mind, The Death God walked as he searched for the one that spoke. The Death God kept looking left and right as he walk around Zhihao''s mind. Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er was shocked instantly, how come Zhihao''s body became something like a doll? The three of them just waited as they don''t want to approach him right now, it might be a trap and it could lead Zhihao to sacrifice himself for the three of them. The Death God kept walking as he saw a silhouette of a Throne as someone is sitting in it. The Death God snickered as he spoke: "You should just give that throne to me." The Silhouette smiled as he stood up and replied: "It''s been a long time, Maraduk." The Death God frowned as he shouted: "WHO ARE YOU! SHOW YOURSELF!" The Silhouette then smiled again as he walked closer and closer towards the Death God. The Death God got enraged as he gathered his power within him as he prepared to attack, but when he saw the face of the Silhouette, The Death God''s eyes became wet as tears immediately fell down from his cheeks, he then spoke. "Is that really you?" The Silhouette smiled as he nodded and spoke. "It''s been a really long time, wasn''t it?" The Death God immediately knelt down as he spoke: "MASTER!" Tears poured down from his face as he knelt and bowed sincerely. The Silhouette casually approached him as he patted his shoulders. The Death God then looked at him as he got enraged again and asked: "Master! who was it! Who was it that made you vanish for millions of years?" The Silhouette just smiled as he shook his head. The Death God gritted his teeth and asked again: "Was it him?" The Silhouette just sighed but didn''t answer. Death God gnashed his teeth and clenched his fist as he spoke: "How dare him! To his own Elder Brother! The only Family he had left! What kind of immoral act did he do!" He then stood up as he continued. "Master, I`ll kill him for you." The Silhouette smiled as he spoke: "He had already gathered powerful subordinates at that time, and I couldn''t stop him with them around, each of his followers are as strong as the 8 of you, so you won''t be able to do anything." The Death God frowned as he asked: "What is his objective Master?" The Silhouette sighed as he replied: "It''s to destroy the God''s Realms so that the Titan''s Realm canReplacing the Gods and finally rule the Universe, Chaos will be everywhere after that. The Death God was shocked as sweats started to rush down his back, he then asked. "What are you planning to do Master?" The Silhouette smiled as he spoke: "I`ll create someone, that is much more stronger than I was before." Maraduk frowned as he asked: "Why did you choose this human then? there are countless Gods over at the God''s realm that can be trained." The Silhouette just smiled as he spoke: "It''s just like how I met all of you, I felt that you all would be soaring the God''s Realm with me that time." Maraduk smiled as he nodded and asked: "What do you want me to do Maste..." but before he could finish, he remembered something and asked. "Master, I had a contract with him already! what will happen now!?" The Silhouette smiled as he spoke: "Although I can''t destroy the contract, I can change the contents of what''s inside of it to exact Minimum of what your soul contract can give." Maraduk smiled as he replied: "Yes Master." The Silhouette then spoke: "After you are done with the business here, Gather your other Brothers, and I`ll try my best in my side. Maraduk nodded as he replied: "Your order shall be done Master, We''ll try to enhance our powers again." The Silhouette smiled as he spoke: "Now go, and Finish this ordeal." Maraduk smiled as he replied: "Yes, Master." Chapter 145 The War for Supremacy: Kneel Within the Battlefield. The Death God came back from Zhihao''s mind as he immediately possessed his body. Maraduk then turned around as he looked at Zhihao''s wives and spoke. "For my previous manners that caused you three to be offended, I sincerely apologize." After speaking, Maraduk bowed deeply and then continued: "But there will still be a penalty for forming a contract with me, But it won''t be anything bad, I assure you." Verushka, Xiao''er, and Ning''er were shocked at the sudden change, Ning''er then shook her head as she asked. "What did you do to Zhihao? did you take his soul?" Hearing these words, Xiao''er and Verushka frowned as they prepared to fight, they''d rather have their husband die than someone uses his body. Maraduk snickered as he replied: "Don''t worry about him, he''s only unconscious." Hearing his words, The three of them sighed but still felt anxious about it. Maraduk then continued: "I`ll be crippling him, and what happens next is for your husband to decide, Okay? Just tell him that for me." The three of them nodded as they replied: "Just don''t do anything to our husband, please." Maraduk sighed as he then vowed: "Look here, I stake my name, as the God of Death, Maraduk, that If I ever harmed your husband intentionally, I shall suffer the wrath of all the Gods." A golden paper appeared as it entered Zhihao''s body just right after Maraduk spoke. Maraduk then looked at them as he smiled and spoke: "Satisfied?" The three of them nodded with a relief expression. Maraduk then looked at the Sky and spoke to the three of them: "I`ll do my business now, make your men go back to somewhere safe." Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er nodded as they immediately shouted. "ALL OF YOU! RETURN BACK TO ETERNAL GLORY EMPIRE''S WALL! RETREAT NOW!" All of the cultivators and citizens heard this as they immediately replied: "YES!" After just answering, all of them immediately flew faster, carrying the Citizens back to the Empire''s walls. Zhihao''s wives then immediately returned to the walls. Xiao''er then looked at a silhouette in a distance as she shouted. "Ying Mai! Return!" Ying Mai was about to follower her words, but then she shook her head and spoke: "My Ladies, I`ll be staying here, for now, in case anything happens." The three of them pondered for a bit as they nodded, Ning''er then spoke: "Take care of yourself." Ying Mai nodded as she replied: "Yes!" Ying Mai noticed Maraduk''s words earlier, "he won''t do anything intentionally", but what if an accident occurs? will Maraduk protect their Master?. Ying Mai became alert as she flew within a distance between the two. A silhouette then appeared beside her, It was Ma Dong. Ma Dong then spoke to her: "If anything happens, I`ll try to delay it as much as possible while you save our Master." Ying Mai smiled as she spoke: "So, you''ve noticed it too?" Ma Dong smiled back as he replied: "I just hope there would be no accidents." The both of them nodded at each other as they watched. ... Maraduk finally sighed as he spoke: "Finally, it''s become quiet now." Maraduk scanned Zhihao''s body to measure the limits of it, but he became shock instead as he spoke. "Master! What type of body are you creating? Three powerful God''s physique? will this kid be able to handle it?" Just after finishing his words, he heard a notification. *Ding!* =He would, and I`m tempering his body to accept more of God''s physiques." Maraduk sighed as he nodded and replied: "Master, I will help this kid to seek for your Death''s revenge and void the Plans of your Brother." *Ding!* =I just hoped, that he has maintained his Strength from the millions of years that had passed." Maraduk then started to sweat as he thought of his Master''s little Brother. ''Millions of years ago, his little Brother is the 10th Strongest God within the Ranks of the God''s Realms, if he continued to pursue power and strength... and what if he gathered more subordinates than before, they killed Master when he''s ranked 6th...'' Maraduk breathed heavily as he shook his head and replied: "Master, We will definitely win this war." *Ding!* =I surely hope so, I would like it if his plans never come to fruition. Maraduk nodded as he replied: "Master, I`ll do my best together with my Seniors, and Juniors. *Ding!* =God Realm blessed the Just, go and do your duties. Maraduk nodded as he replied: "Yes, Master." Maraduk looked at the sky again as he glared at Bugal and spoke: "Until when are you going to look down on me from there?" Bugal snickered as he replied: "Just because you`ve obtained some power doesn''t mean that I should go down there and stoop to your level, I`m not as kind as to decrease my power just to be your match." Maraduk sighed as he scratched his ears and spoke: "You really are annoying, you know that?" Bugal immediately gathered his power as he spoke: "It''s not that I`m annoying you, It''s just that I`m too powerful for you to comprehend our difference." Although Bugal spoke like that he felt extreme fear from the time that Zhihao''s aura changed. he became alert and started to be cautious around him, he even felt the short amount of time that Zhihao''s aura vanished, but he didn''t do anything as he thought that it was Zhihao''s trap. Everyone within the walls of Eternal Glory Empire is witnessing the current scene, Bugal was acting crazily before, releasing all sorts of energy out of his body, but when Zhihao''s aura changed, he became somewhat like a tamed animal, not daring to bare his fangs. Maraduk got really irritated as he spoke: "How long are you planning to look down on me? You are not fit to look down at me from above!" Right after speaking, Maraduk pointed his finger and shouted. "KNEEL!" Bugal''s body immediately shook as his body immediately felt powerless, feeling the extreme pressure pouring down from his body, the feeling of someone holding your life in their hands! Bugal body within the span of 2 seconds immediately rushed towards the ground as he hit the ground. "Boom!" An extremely ear piercing sound echoed throughout the whole field after Bugal fell, but what shocked everyone was not how he fell, but what is he currently doing, He is kneeling in front of Zhihao! Bugal tried to look at Zhihao but before he could, Zhihao spoke. "You have no right to look at me!" Another force pushed Bugal''s body as he felt like his whole body became like a stone, unable to move! He''s in a kneeling position, bowing his head to Zhihao. Maraduk then walked towards Bugal and spoke: "If it was up to me, I''d already kill you now." After speaking, Maraduk walked a few steps back as he continued. "You are lucky, My contractor wants to kill you himself." Maraduk smiled as thousands and thousands of Black looking spear energy came out of thin air all pointing at Bugal''s body. Maraduk then spoke again: "You only took a single step inside the God''s Realm, I''ve been there for more than you can imagine kid, don''t brag about your simple achievements." Chapter 146 The War for Supremacy: Conclusion, and Answer Eternal Glory Empire''s wall. The millions of people standing as they looked at the two fighting in the plains. their mouth had been opened to its limit as they were shocked by what had just happened. Their Lord who was having so much trouble earlier had now overpowered the enemy! and too much at that! Maraduk smiled as he spoke: "I`ll cripple you know." Right after speaking, the Dark Spears floating within the air pierced Bugal''s limbs, one by one striking his body, but what''s worst is not how the spear is striking him, but that, the spear itself is avoiding his vitals. "GRAAAAAH!" Bugal shouted as the Spears are actually sealing his power, draining it as it transferred the energy in his body towards Zhihao''s body. Bugal gritted his teeth as he spoke: "I won''t die without killing you!" Maraduk smirked as he replied: "Oh? I''d like to see you try then, well?" Maraduk smiled as he waited for Bugal''s response, but after a few seconds, he then continued. "You are barking in the wrong tree here, you haven''t even figured that out? I`m not the owner of this Body, I`m a Contracted God, The God of Death at that." Bugal widened his eyes as he smirked, he then spoke. "So that''s it, I`m dying from a God''s hand, not from a Human." Maraduk then summoned another powerful aura as it formed into a Scythe like a weapon. Bugal was shocked at first, but then he smiled and spoke. "That must be the Death''s Scythe." Maraduk smiled as he asked: "Oh... You know about my beloved weapon?" Bugal snickered as he replied: "Yeah, Maraduk Garlant, The God of Death, The one true kill of Hell''s Gate." Maraduk chuckled as he spoke: "Ohh, Go on, continue, continue." Maraduk sat on the ground as he watched Bugal. Bugal sighed as he smiled and continued: "It''s the Symbol of Hell''s Gate Realm, The Death God, Maraduk held it with Might and Authority as he governed the power of Darkness for billions of years." Maraduk chuckled as he spoke: "You know more than you knew, so... where did you learn it?" Bugal smiled as he replied: "That... Is something I won''t ever tell you." Maraduk then spoke happily: "Kikikiki, I guess there''s no more time for you then?" Bugal shook his head and spoke: "Thank you for listening to me, I had already gathered enough energy." Maraduk''s eyes immediately glowed as he felt something was amiss, Maraduk slashed forth as it cut through half of Bugal''s body, but before it reached Bugal''s core, Maraduk cursed. "F*CK!!!" *Ding!* =Maraduk''s contract has been fully completed. Maraduk cursed inwardly as he spoke: "D*mnit kid! Retreat!" After speaking until then, Maraduk''s soul immediately returned to his original body, in the Hell''s Gate Realm. Just right after speaking, Zhihao''s consciousness returned to his body as he saw Bugal. Bugal witnessed the exchanging of souls as he laughed madly. "HAHAHAHAHA! WELCOME BACK! I WILL DESTROY THIS WHOLE PLANET!" Right after speaking, Bugal''s core immediately glowed as a very concentrated energy within it is preparing to explode. *Ding!* =Warning, The explosion can kill everyone living in this world. Zhihao immediately rushed but then, before he could reach it, the Core exploded with Bugal''s final words. "Goodbye kid, I might see you in the afterlife! Hahahahaha! Kaaa.. ahhh!" The Energy Core immediately exploded in front of Zhihao, The explosion was about to happen, but then everything turned slow, as Zhihao heard a notification, *Ding!* =Host... Just right after that, a Silhouette appeared that came out of Zhihao''s body, he then spoke. "I Am the system, your system." Zhihao was shocked, he wanted to move, but couldn''t. The Silhouette then spoke again. "I promised you three times of Time escape, But I guess this might be the last one." After speaking, The silhouette tapped Zhihao''s forehead as Zhihao immediately became free, moving out of the time freeze. Zhihao then spoke: "You are... The system?" The silhouette then spoke: "Yes, I am The Supreme Martial God, My name is Arthariaz." Zhihao only looked at him as he pondered for a bit. Arthariaz then continued: "I was one of the Leading God''s before, within the God''s Realm, and the name of my star is the Blazing Supreme Realm." Zhihao then looked at Arthariaz as he asked: "You are a God, but how''d you become my System then?" Arthariaz smiled as he replied: "I died." Zhihao became shocked as he asked: "Did the mower powerful Gods kill you?" Arthariaz chuckled as he replied: "No... It was my Brother." Zhihao as he looked at Arthariaz in pain. Arthariaz chuckled as he spoke: "It was millions of years ago, but I`ll have to tell you something, and you could either decline or accept it, I will respect your will, and whichever you choose, I`ll still save you and your world, Is that okay with you?" Zhihao didn''t hesitate as he nodded and replied: "Yes." Arthariaz then started: "The contract you had, with Madaruk, is actually a contract of Death, once you died, he''ll take everything you had, and when I said everything, I mean everything." Zhihao was about to talk again but decided to just listen for now. Arthariaz then continued: "He is one of my Disciples, The God of Death, Maraduk, I changed the form of contract to the minimum, and that is Exile, for 50 years." Zhihao was shocked, then immediately asked: What do you mean by exile?" Arthariaz nodded and replied: "It is as what the word means, but it is a way like, you going to a vacation from some other random planet because you will be exiled from this planet, for 50 years." Zhihao nodded, it is better than dying too. Arthariaz then spoke again: "This energy, is something that you won''t be able to revert, destroy, or swallow, but I will push it away." Zhihao didn''t respond as he continued listening. Arthariaz then smiled as he continued: "Now, This would be the story, of how the worlds with peace will and as chaos will emerge, that is If my Little Brother succeeds." Zhihao frowned then asked: "If he succeeds? In what?" Arthariaz looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "Killing all the Gods that are protecting your peace." Zhihao was shocked, his little Brother is a God too right? why would he even do that? Arthariaz then made a sad expression as he spoke: "My Brother, Betrayed the Gods, and Joined forces with the Titans." Zhihao then pondered for a bit as he asked: "Titans? you mean like Giant humans? or creatures?" Arthariaz snickered then spoke: "No... Titans are the total opposite of us Gods, we seek balance, peace, and harmony, but the Titans, want Chaos, and Destruction." Zhihao then finally understood as he nodded. Arthariaz then continued: "I don''t know when my Brother will start, but there is one thing that I am sure of... and that is, he will kill all the Gods, and Bring the Titans outside their Realm to start the destruction of all the worlds." Zhihao started sweating as he thinks of what will happen if the Titans actually broke through, he then asked. "Then, why are the Titans not getting out of their realms? are they trap?" Arthariaz nodded as he spoke: "Their whole Realm is entrapped inside the God''s Realm, all corners of their Realm, the God''s can immediately go, which is why they are having a hard time." Zhihao asked another one. "Then why aren''t the Gods just kill the Titans?" "Because, we Gods, drew our power from the light, and the Titans drew it from the darkness. Once we entered their Realm, they will be stronger than Us, but if they entered our Realm, we''ll be ten times stronger than them." Arthariaz explained. Zhihao then realized something: "Then, If your little Brother became the strongest God in your Realm." Arthariaz smiled as he nodded. Zhihao then figured out Arthariaz'' Brother''s Plan. Arthariaz then continued: "The Fate of all the planets, shall be decided by you, Or if you decline, I`ll try to find somebody else, after a million year had passed." Zhihao became bewildered as he asked: "A Million Year? What do you mean by that?" Arthariaz just smiled as he spoke: "I only have 10% Of my current power, and I`ll use that Power, to drive the Explosion, but I would only be using something like a Pebble within the Ocean of that 10% driving away the explosion." Zhihao then frowned as he asked: "Then... why do you have to vanish for a long time?" Arthariaz smiled as he spoke: "I`ll use my Remaining power, To protect your worlds, the Two Worlds you lived, I`ll create the best formation outside of your world, so no one from other worlds can enter it, but the ones that are inside, can both Enter and Exit the world at the same time, Even a Millions of Me won''t be able to destroy that protection." Zhihao was shocked, he then nodded as he asked: "Then, why didn''t you just use it to protect the God''s Realm?" Arthariaz chuckled as he replied: "Well, you definitely are stupid, hahaha, Your two worlds, are tiny, compared to a Whole Realm, If I did something like that, I''d only covered One over a Million percent of the Whole realm." Zhihao was shocked, but then remembered something as he smiled and spoke: "You seriously like to call me stupid, since the beginning." Arthariaz chuckled again as he spoke: "That I do." Zhihao then nodded and spoke: "I`ll accept it! And I`ll destroy their plan for you!" Chapter 147 Farewell Within the Frozen time and Space, Zhihao and Arthariaz are having a conversation. Arthariaz looked at the horizon as he touched Zhihao''s shoulder. Immediately, all the wounds that were dealt with him by Bugal''s detonation healed in a very astonishing speed. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "Thanks." Arthariaz then smiled at him as he replied: "Don''t worry about it, It''s just a Minor thing." Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "Gods are really strong huh." Arthariaz smiled but didn''t reply. Zhihao then asked: "What is in the God''s Realm?" Arthariaz looked at Zhihao as he answered: "It''s the Realm full of powerful beings, one which you can see Gods in every turn of your head if you go out." Zhihao pondered for a bit as he asked again: "All the ones living within the God''s Realm are born with Godly powers?" Arthariaz nodded as he spoke: "All infants that had been and will be born in there had always been at the lower stage of the Demi-God''s Realm, If you have the Bloodline of the Supreme Beings, then you`ll immediately enter God''s Realm lower stage after being born." Zhihao nodded as he asked another one: "Then, all the Gods there are good and just?" Arthariaz then looked at Zhihao again as he replied: "They have roles to fulfill, contracts to do, and vows to finish, Every God has different characteristics, like Maraduk, The God of Death, although he is a God, his responsibility lies within the Dead, and that is his role." Zhihao understood a tiny bit now as he looked at Arthariaz, he then spoke: "Can I bid farewell to my family?" Arthariaz shook his head as he spoke: "No." Zhihao smiled sadly as he looked down at the ground. Arthariaz sighed as he continued: "But you can leave a note." Zhihao then looked at Arthariaz as he smiled and said: "Thanks." Zhihao immediately pulled out a couple of papers, and writing tools he bought from Earth he then began as he wrote to everyone who is important to him. Zhihao made at least 30 notes as tears flowed from his eyes, ''50 years.'' Zhihao thought. Arthariaz then spoke to him. "I can''t decrease the timespan of the cultivation world like how I did to Earth, but I can at least make it slower, the 50 years you`ll be gone would be 15 years here." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Thanks." Arthariaz then continued: "I`ll need to enter my sleep after this, I`ll pass a little knowledge I know to you to help you in your travels." Zhihao was shocked as he looked at Arthariaz then asked: "For how long?" Arthariaz looked at the horizon as he spoke: "I don''t know myself." Zhihao then frowned as he asked: "How are you producing all the items that you gave me?" Arthariaz smiled but didn''t answer. Zhihao then looked at Arthariaz, scanning for any interspatial Rings or any accessories that can keep items, but after a few seconds, he didn''t find any of such things. Zhihao then asked: "I want to know." Arthariaz sighed as he replied: "I`m using my life force." Zhihao became shocked as he spoke: "Wha... why are you doing this when it can endanger your life?" Arthariaz smiled as he replied: "Those points that I make you do, it actually supplies my life force." Zhihao then asked again: "Then, why not stay with me? I`ll do more to gain a lot of points." Arthariaz chuckled as he replied: "All those points you had gained, only filled a tiny drop in my gigantic appetite, so I would die before you could gather enough points to at least sustain my life." Zhihao frowned but didn''t ask anymore. Arthariaz then continued: "I`ll leave you with the System, you can just check it by thinking ''Status'' Inside your head, there you can just a do it yourself." Zhihao smiled as he thought: ''Status!'' Different types of windows appeared in his mind. Zhihao then spoke. "So there''s no more of that notification sounds huh." Arthariaz chuckled as he replied: "Oh, that?" He pulled out something behind his back as he showed it to Zhihao, it was a triangular music instrument that you can see in an orchestra on Earth. Arthariaz then pulled a metal hitter as he hit the Triangle. *Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!* Zhihao immediately fell to the ground after realizing it. he then asked. "Where the hell did you get that?" Arthariaz chuckled as he replied: "I got it from the store from where you died, the store before you walk to the bridge." Zhihao facepalmed as he sighed. he then spoke, "Arthariaz, I`ll do my best to destroy your little Brother''s plan." Arthariaz smiled and replied: "Do not rush, when that time comes, you`ll feel a small pain in your lower stomach, that is where the God''s seed from Berserker God''s power comes from, and from your heart, and the brain is where your other Physiques are lurking, those are God''s powers, they will hurt for a period of 3 seconds, and that is an Alarm for all Gods to prepare for battle." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Okay, I got it." Zhihao then looked at Arthariaz and immediately became shocked, he then asked. "What''s happening! Why are you fading!?" Arthariaz smiled as he replied: "I`ve already finished preparing the defensive formation to Guard the two Worlds that you cherish, even if we fail this war, they will never be harmed for at least 10 million years." Zhihao frowned as he asked: "Are you about to enter your Sleep?" Arthariaz nodded and smiled, Arthariaz then spoke: "I`ll leave a part of my consciousness within your body, so when I woke up, I can immediately come to you." Zhihao nodded as tears immediately gathered from his eyes. Arthariaz smiled as he spoke: "Stupid, why are you crying? It''s not like I`ll be going forever." Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "I`ll do my best." Arthariaz smiled as he spoke. "Leave your notes here, I`ll protect it until your wives find it." Zhihao nodded as he placed everything on the ground he then became shocked as he saw both Ma Dong, and Ying Mai is so close to him, he then asked Arthariaz. "Hey, What''s happening? why are they here?" Arthariaz smiled and replied: "They were trying to save you when the explosion happened." Zhihao nodded as he spoke to the both of them: "You guys should protect our world, and help my Sons and Daughter to grow up." Arthariaz chuckled as he spoke. "Finding a summoning portal... Found 38 Summoning portal, checking the closest and most suitable place to be in... found 2, finding the best place for them to grow up... found 1..." Zhihao smiled, but then realized something as he asked: "Them?!" Arthariaz smiled as he answered: "They are too close to you, I can''t move you out of place as it will cause an aftermath within the time, so they''ll be coming with you." Zhihao was about to protest but before he could, Arthariaz spoke. "Goodbye for good, I`ll continue to be with you, but this time, It will be different" Pausing for a bit, Arthariaz continued: "Be sure to make every day of your life be lived to the fullest." Zhihao gritted his teeth as he shouted: "What do you mean goodbye for good?!" But right after Zhihao spoke, time resumed, Arthariaz waved his hands as the explosion immediately contracted into a small orb until it completely vanished. Zhihao then spoke: "WAIT!" Arthariaz smiled as he continued to ignore Zhihao, and spoke. "Summoning PORTAL!" Zhihao''s area immediately got lightened up by a blue color with a lot of seals. Zhihao then tried to move towards Arthariaz, but it seemed impossible. A dim light appeared from Arthariaz''s forehead as it entered Zhihao''s body. Information kept flooding his brains, one after another as Zhihao held his head in extreme pain. Ying Mai and Ma Dong finally caught up with Zhihao as they called: "MASTER!" The three of them, Ying Mai, Ma Dong, and Zhihao''s body lightened up in blue and white color as they vanished from the Cultivation World. Arthariaz smiled as he faded from the air, without any trace. ... Somewhere within a certain Empire from a different world. The Grand Hall emitted a grand blue light on the floor as the four Magicians had finished their summoning spells. After just a few second, Silhouettes of people covered with lights appeared in the circle. A fairly built man within his mid-50s stood up with the crown on his head as he spoke. "WELCOME FOUR HEROES TO THE DAWNTON HOLY EMPIRE!" Chapter 148 My excuse for Stopping/slowing down. Hello everyone, as I''ve said in my Author''s note in the previous chapter, I think I would like to stop my novel right now, because of financial problems. I need a breather. Writing my novel wouldn''t get me any money, and such. I barely had any money from my work, as such I need to find another one. "I need to focus on my work As I am suffering from lack of sleep. I`m working from Monday to Sat. 7 AM to 5 PM I woke up at 5:30 AM to prepare, and eat, I go home at 5 PM, with the traveling time of 1 hour(2hours if traffic, or more) I usually get home by 6:30 or 7:30... I hope you can forgive this guy. As I couldn''t continue this novel yet! I had fun reading your comments!" But due to the requests in my comment box, I`ll still try to squeeze some chapters out of my brain :D I`d also like to continue my other novel, MOFM, and HSOE, Like my name, I`m a father. Almost all my salary goes to my Son''s milk and etc. I need money to live, and I can''t make any money with my novel... This is my breaking point as I spent more money this month. July 8, 2018, is my Son''s first birthday, and I splurged more than I usually do, I am sorry to all of you, but I need to live too :D hahaha Well, I`ll still squeeze some chapters out even if my schedule is tight, I hope you guys can still read it, even with the lack of quality. As some of you guys know, I`ve only been an Author for a Month, and still made at least 140+ chapters. I`m not an experienced author like some people writing here, I don''t have stockpiles that I made for years, unlike them, and I can''t recycle novel materials that I had previously made since I don''t have any to recycle. Unlike a lot of the Top ranking novels, I`m publishing everything Raw. and That is the end of my excuse! Thank you for supporting my novel until now! Love you lots guys, I`ll still do my best so make more chapters per week Chapter 149 Another World Dawnton Holy Empire. Within the Grand Hall, the King, the one wearing the crown that spoke from the previous chapter bowed his head towards the Summoning Circle, All of the ones gathering inside the Grand Hall followed their King as they also bowed and spoke simultaneously. "We greet the four great Heroes!" The Princess standing beside the King also joined them, but she only bowed and didn''t speak nor greeted them. The Princess took a peak as he wanted to see the appearances of the ones that will be summoned. The bright light of the silhouette manifested into a that of human being''s form. One of them immediately spoke with shock: "Wha... what happened? what was that bright light just now?" Just after he finished speaking, two other voices came. "Kyaaa! What happened?!" "Where are we?!" Two females spoke, as another one followed. "Yoshiro, Nanami, Maya, stop panicking, let''s wait for what will happen now." After speaking, the four of them looked around as they saw people bowing to them. Miyasaki Takeji, the one spoke before, looked at them as he asked. "Excuse me, but where are we? and why are we here?" The four of them were still wearing their School uniform until they were wrapped up by a bright light and was sent here without any warning. The King lifted his head as he smiled and spoke. "You are the Heroes that are summoned to our world to protect the Humans from the Demons, I seek your forgiveness for dragging you here without your consent, but the Demons had started a war and we had no other option." Nanami grabbed Takeji''s sleeve as she asked: "What is going on here?" Takeju was about to speak, but just before he could speak, Yoshiro interrupted as he giddily jumped high in the air and posed. He lifted his hand up in the sky, as the other one held his waist, as his two legs are separated, one of it is bent, while the other one is straight, it looked like one of the poses that were made in the 80s after a rock singer finishes his song. "We''re Heroes!" "..." A deathly silence overcame the situation as they saw what Yoshiro did. After a while, Yoshiro figured out something as he spoke in a lowly tone. "Takeji, save me... I`m too embarrassed to move." Takeji sighed as he pulled the collar of Yoshiro''s Uniform and drag him back. he then looked at the King as he asked. Nanami then looked around as she spoke: "Takeji, aren''t this event something like one of those Mangas we read before? you know the one that is an average person being summoned to another world?" Maya nodded as she smirked and whispered: "I guess, we''ll be having special powers then!" Maya immediately went inside her own world as she finally became one of those heroines from the books she had read, Noticing this, Nanami then smiled as she also went into her own world. Takeji sighed as he looked at his classmates, he then looked at the King as he asked: "Is there a way to return us back to our World?" But right after Takeji finished speaking, all of them heard a loud laugh. "HAHAHAHAHA! That! That pose was awesome! Do it again! Hahahahaha" All of them looked at where the sound came from as they simultaneously looked at Takeji''s group of four, then they looked further as it didn''t seem like it came from Takeji''s group. They saw three people behind Takeji''s group as the King spoke. "Who are you?" Ying Mai and Ma Dong was actually speechless and bewildered after what had just happened, but they woke up after hearing Zhihao''s words. they both looked at Zhihao as they spoke. "Master!" Zhihao was actually facing the ground as he kept holding his stomach due to the intense laughter he was having earlier, he remembered his two sisters on Earth as tears filled his eyes. Zhihao then wiped the wetness out of his eyes as he faced them. All of the people in the room was shocked, such a beautiful handsome man actually exists! The Princess behind the King was stunned after seeing Zhihao''s face, she then looked at the ground as she pinched her dress and looked around with the thought: ''Is there anything wrong with me?'' Zhihao pondered for a bit, then he smiled as he found an interesting thing to say, he then spoke. "We''re not part of the ones you summoned? We were playing cosplay in China but I guess It''s just a Miscalculation then? you should bring us back to Earth." Zhihao immediately found some interesting play, so he just spoke of it due to the fun. Ying Mai and Ma Dong couldn''t understand anything right now, they just silently stood behind Zhihao as they wait for his words, they couldn''t understand a single meaning behind Zhihao''s words, but as Zhihao''s subordinate, they wouldn''t interrupt their Master in the middle of a conversation. The King was shaken at first, he ignored the few words that he couldn''t understand and pondered for a bit, if what this human was saying was actually true, then they really did commit harm to someone who''s actually shouldn''t be involved. The King looked at Zhihao as he replied: "I`m truly sorry that you got involved in our mess." he then looked at Takeji''s group as he continued to explain. "The only thing we know of is that, when the Demon''s Lord has been killed, You`ll obtain the power to return back to your own World." Zhihao smirked as he spoke again: "Then, shouldn''t you give us a Mansion? We got involved in your mess, and now we might even die, how should you compensate us? A Mansion with a lot of Servants would do." The King felt down, he couldn''t reject Zhihao''s proposal due to the Heroes in his front, he''d look like someone that pushes others because they didn''t have any use to him, but in reality, the King couldn''t do that, as the resources they had are limited due to the production of their Kingdom getting smaller due to the Demon''s invasion. The King spoke tremblingly as he said: "This... you... you can just stay at our Castle first, we don''t have any resources to build a Mansion yet." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Nah, Just an ordinary house would do, but I need it in a hidden place, like.. the Back of your Castle maybe?" The King sighed a breath of relief as he heard it, he then replied: "Of course, that would do, if it''s to your liking." Takeji looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "I promise you, that once we kill that Demon Lord, we will have all of us returned to Earth." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Sure, thanks! your name?" Takeji smiled as he spoke: "Miyasaki Takeji, A Japanese." Zhihao then replied: "Zhong Zhihao, China." Nanami and Maya woke up from their dreams as they heard Zhihao''s words, they immediately turned around as they spoke simultaneously. "Zheng Shuan-sama''s fiance!?!" "The Superstar-sama''s Lover?!" Zhihao looked at the both of them as he asked: "You know Shuan''er?" "Kyaa!" Nanami and Maya jumped around as they both held their hands in excitement, after a while, the both of them walked closer as they spoke. "You really are handsome! Even better from the Videos and Photos!" "Yep! He''s better looking in person!" Takeji pulled the both of them behind as he spoke: "I`ll definitely have you return to Earth, I swear with my life." Zhihao just sighed as he nodded his head and spoke: "Thanks." Takeji then blushed a little as he spoke again: "Ahem, uh, Can we get... Like... A... an Autograph of Zheng Shuan-sama after we returned?" Yoshiro, Nanami, and Maya laughed together as they held their stomach. Takeji blushed again as he shouted at them: "Stop it, I know you guys want it too! or I could just have all four!" Yoshiro and the other two then became silent as they sat on the ground, nodding their head. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke: "You guys are interesting, Maybe I should introduce you all to her too." The four of them opened their eyes as they asked. "REALLY?!" Zhihao smiled and nodded, all of them then heard a cough as they looked behind and saw the King. "Heroes, Should we start now?" The King spoke to them as he waved his hand to his subordinates. A big crystal was brought near the 7 of them as it was placed on the ground. The King then spoke: "This is the Crystal of Talent" pausing for a bit, the King continued. "The brightness and color of the Crystal will change depending on your abilities." Takeji''s group nodded as they approached the Crystal. Zhihao, on the other hand, looked at the Crystal and smiled. Chapter 150 The Test of Power Dawnton Holy Empire. Within the Grounds. Takeji, Yoshiro, Nanami, and Maya approached the crystal. Takeji looked at them as he spoke: "Which one of you wants to go first?" "ME! ME!" Both Nanami and Maya lifted their hands up as they volunteered. Nanami saw this and immediately spoke to Maya: "Rock, Paper, Scissors?" Maya smirked at her as she replied: "Why not, you foul being!" The two of them smirked as they started their ultimate battle. Nanami slumped in the ground as she spoke: "Best of 5 out of 9?" Maya smirked again as she spoke: "Make way you lowly human, mwahahaha!" Nanami slumped again as she laid in the ground pretending to cry. Takeji smiled as he spoke: "You guys are seriously enjoying this." Nanami immediately stood up as she fixed her uniform and spoke. "Of course, It''s a once in a lifetime opportunity!" Takeji was about to reply, then a bright red light glowed beside them, everyone in the hall immediately looked towards the Crystal. The crystal is glowing a fiery red color as they saw a staff shaped object inside. Everyone that knew it immediately smiled. The King also nodded as he spoke: "So, It''s a Fire Sage!" Maya hearing this frowned as she spoke: "But I wanted to wield a big and massive broadsword!" Nanami immediately laughed as she spoke to Maya in a teasing way. "Don''t worry Mayachin, I`ll be the one wielding it for you." Right after talking, Nanami went forward as she touches the Crystal. Just after touching the Crystal, a Bluish color appeared with the sign of a staff too. Nanami looked at the King as she asked tremblingly: "What is this? What kind of trick is this?! I need a sword showing up!" The King smiled awkwardly as he spoke: "I`m really sorry, but that is your Talent, I can''t really dictate what talent you have, You have the talent of an Ice Sage." Nanami looked at the King as she wanted to say anything, then she felt a very horrible aura behind her, the aura of mockery, she slowly looked behind her as she saw Maya grinning from ear to ear. "HA HAHA! I guess it''s your way of saying, you can wield a big sword huh!? Hahahaha Serves you right!" Maya teased Nanami as she showed her tongue and while grinning. Nanami awkwardly returned beside Takeji as she ignored Maya. Takeji smiled at the both of them as he spoke: "Yoshiro?" Yoshiro sighed as he spoke: "Okay, Okay, I`ll go." Yoshiro walked towards the Crystal and touched it, a Bright green light glowed out of the Crystal as a silhouette of two swords showed up, Yoshiro immediately smiled as he grinned at the Two, Maya, and Nanami. Nanami and Maya pouted as they both looked at a different direction. The King smiled again, this is definitely a great talent, he then calmed himself down as he shouted: "Sword Master, Earth Elemental!" Everyone in the hall clapped as they nodded. Nanami and Maya looked at them as they returned their gaze towards the King and asked. "Why did you clapped at him and not from me?" Maya objected immediately. "Why was he the only one getting clapped at and not us?!" Nanami spoke as she pouted her lips in a very cute way. The King sighed yet again, Maya and Nanami are both very hard to deal with, as they talk about what they have in their minds immediately, he then replied. "It''s a very great talent, and there hasn''t been any sort of that kind of talent for thousands of years, so we just appreciate that it had shown itself again." Nanami and Maya just pouted as they accepted the explanation. The King saw their disapproval as he continued: "Although your power is great, It had shown itself from the History, and they were great sages, both the Ice Sage and Fire Sage invented these crystals too, they were the ones that created it and made us survive for thousands of years. Hearing the King''s word, Nanami and Maya both smiled as they nodded, the Both of them looked at Yoshiro as showed him their tongue, like they had won a war. Yoshiro fights back as he spoke: "At least, I`m Strong, and Wielding two swords at that! HAHHAHAHA" Hearing his word, Maya and Nanami looked at each other as they both wanted to fight with words. Nanami''s eyes immediately brightened up as she spoke: "At least, we''re not all brawns! Bleeeh!" Maya immediately got what Nanami is saying as she continued: "Yep! At least our talents are intelligent, unlike yours who''s only pure Muscle power, hahahaha!" Yoshiro frown as he looked at the King and asked: "Did the previous one that owned this power created something?" The King wanted to finish their fight as he thought for a bit, he analyzed the situation as he thought. ''He''ll never win against women, women always win, so if I supported him, the war of words would never finish..." Just right after that, The King smiled awkwardly as he spoke. "It has been too long, and there were no records about anything towards a Sword Master with elemental powers." Hearing the King''s words, Yoshiro walked down as he averted his eyes from the Preying duo. Maya and Nanami snorted as they looked at each other and made a Hi-5. Takeji smiled awkwardly as he coughed and spoke: "It''s my turn now I guess." After speaking, Takeji walked towards the Crystal as he touched it, a bright light shone out of the crystal, a pure white light with a silhouette of a sword and shield was shown. The King and all of his subordinates smiled as he spoke: "The Knight of Light had finally appeared." All of them clapped together as they nodded in satisfaction. Takeji returned towards his group as he spoke to them: "Maya, Nanami, they are clapping just because the testing of power has been done." Takeji immediately comforted the two of them after returning to them. Maya and Nanami only snorted as they folded their arms in front of them. Yoshiro rolled his eyes towards the two ladies as he chuckled and held Takeji''s shoulders. Takeji nodded at them as he looked at the King, Takeji then remembered Zhihao as he spoke to them. "Zhihao, why not try your talent too? you might be able to help us in our fight with the Demons." Zhihao smiled as he pondered, he received a few knowledge from Arthariaz, and the Sword and Magic realm is part of this, Zhihao then looked at the two behind him as he spoke. "Ma Dong, Ying Mai, Try it yourselves." Both of them immediately nodded as they replied: "Yes Master!" Ying Mai led the way as Ma Dong followed behind. Takeji was bewildered as he thought ''Such a good looking man, and a beautiful woman too, the both of them can enter the entertainment industry and they will immediately become superstars, are they Zhihao''s Secretaries?'' Takeji only shook his head as he removed this thought in his head as he looked at Ying Mai. Ying Mai noticed his stare, she then removed her stern expression as she looked at Takeji and smiled, she had a thought in her head ''If anyone is being Kind to my Master, I shouldn''t show any ill-will towards them'' She then walked passed Takeji as she returned from her usual expression. Takeji became stunned as he muttered in a low voice: ''''A Goddess...'''' Yoshiro beside him is also shocked, what a beauty indeed! he then spoke: "An Angel..." After that, Ying Mai looked at the Crystal as she touched it. a blinding light shot out of the crystal as it showed a scarlet red light with her silhouette in it. Zhihao then recalled one of Arthariaz''s memory as he smiled: "A Goddess''s Talent, the Talent of Blood Flames, Phoenix''s Blood Flame." Everyone was shocked after witnessing something they had never had seen before, they then looked at their King for an answer. The King woke up from his daze as he spoke: "Ahem! I haven''t seen any records of that before, Maybe... It''s a talent for fire? but with the silhouette of a woman, that''s a talent of a Woman in controlling fire, that''s just my thoughts." Ying Mai then immediately walked back to Zhihao''s side as she stood behind him. Ma Dong then walked to the Crystal and touched it, a burst of brown energy burst out of the crystal as a Silhouette of a Hammer was shown inside. Zhihao grinned as he spoke in a low tone: "The Talent for Power and Strength, Tyrannical Mighty God''s talent" Ying Mai heard it and immediately smiled. Zhihao noticed her smile, Zhihao then looked at her as he spoke: "Your talent is of a God''s Bloodline, the strongest and most purest too, a Goddess''s Talent, the Talent of Blood Flames, Phoenix''s Blood Flame." The King sighed as he spoke: "I haven''t seen one of such too, but I think it''s a talent for Blacksmithing due to the hammer''s silhouette." Ma Dong immediately walked back as he stood behind Zhihao. Zhihao then stood up as he spoke: "You both have great talents, I will explain everything in Private after we finished everything here." Zhihao walked towards the Crystal, he then patted Takeji and spoke: "We''re all humans, so we can''t really help you with your fight, I`m counting on you." Takeji sighed as he nodded and replied: "Don''t worry, I`ll make it so that you can come back alive, we need to have those autographs from Zheng Shuan-sama too." Zhihao snickered as he walked towards the Crystal, Zhihao then approached it as his hand touched the crystal, Sadly after a few seconds, nothing happened. The King and the rest sighed but they still smiled, they were expecting too much if they actually want more than four. The King was about to speak, but then something happened. It wasn''t like the other ones that came first before Zhihao, a calm light slowly flowed out of crystal as it started to have colors of different variation, the light became an Aurora after just a few seconds, then inside the Crystal, Zhihao''s figure, not a silhouette appeared, this figure is flying over the universe with different kinds of power floating around him, then it immediately vanished, an Ephemeral, It was immediately hidden inside the Crystal. The King was about to talk, but he couldn''t. Zhihao pondered for a bit, he then found something in the knowledge that Arthariaz had given him, he immediately thought inside his head. ''A Supreme Ruler''s Talent, one that stands at the Peak together with Other God, But it is bleak, it will depend on myself if I could actually reach it.'' Zhihao muttered in a low tone. "The Creator''s talent, Gods of all the Gods, The First Being''s Talent." Chapter 151 Statue Dawnton Holy Empire, Within the Grand Hall. Everyone in the Grand Hall is mesmerized by the overwhelming sight of what''s in front of them. Zhihao noticed this as he thought of a way to avoid getting so much attention in this new world, he then thought of a few solutions, but then he saw something very interesting in Arthariaz''s given knowledge, he smirked as he started to tinker with the crystal''s energy. Ying Mai and Ma Dong were only shocked for a brief moment, they are already used to it as such, they calmed themselves up and looked at Zhihao, then just after a few moments, they both saw Zhihao releasing a very thin strand of his energy towards the crystal''s core. Ying Mai and Ma Dong just sighed as they both shook their heads and had a thought inside their head. ''Ah! My Master is doing something again, sigh...'' Ma Dong casually shook his head as he went silent. On the other hand, Ying Mai chuckled as she saw the energy that Zhihao has been releasing is actually messing with the crystal''s core, she has the thought of: ''Master should be doing something very fun.'' The both of them looked at their Master with anticipation, then they immediately noticed the smile that appeared in Zhihao''s lips as it quickly vanished. The both of them immediately thought inside their head. ''Master is playing a prank I guess, He''s enjoying it too." Zhihao finally walked away from the crystal, and within just a few seconds, two silhouettes appeared out of the Crystal and spoke. "Human! We are the Sage of Fire and Ice, This is the special function of our Crystal, once it has been touched by an extremely innocent and talentless human, it will release a very powerful aura, as such we pity you, but at least, we gave you a minute of inspiration, I hope you do well in being a normal human." Right after the two silhouette spoke, the Crystal broke as it crumbled down to specks of dust. All of the ones inside the Grand Hall sighed as they shook their heads, they just thought that Zhihao would be an additional help for their conquest, but for the talent crystal to actually point out that he''s the most perfect human that has no talent at all made their hope vanish instantly. Even Takeji''s group sighed as he shook his head and looked at Zhihao with pity. Zhihao looked at all of their reaction as he spoke: "Okay king, you do know that I`m a very untalented human, so you should really put some protection for me right? well, I just need some things, I won''t take any manpower from your empire." The King nodded as he smiled and replied: "I will immediately have your new homemade behind my Castle, there, you would be protected, our Castle would be destroyed first before they can come to your house." Zhihao smiled with satisfaction as he walked back, but before he could, Takeji blocked his way. Zhihao tilted his head as he asked: "Is Something wrong Takeji?" Takeji frowned sadly as he held Zhihao''s shoulders and spoke: "I`ll definitely make you return to Earth, I promise you, Zhihao-san." Zhihao smiled at Takeji as he answered: "That''s good, Take your time though, Don''t rush it or you might make a mistake, and could lead to one of your friend''s life." After speaking, Zhihao''s smiling face changed as a sad expression emerged from it. Takeji was shocked after seeing such an expression as he gazes at Zhihao''s walking figure, it felt like there''s a very heavy burden that Zhihao is carrying, he wanted to ask, but it would possibly make his mood much sadder. Takeji shook his head as he spoke: "I`ll definitely win this so that we all could return." He then noticed Zhihao''s friends faces, the both of them are carrying the same expression as Zhihao, Takeji sighed after witnessing such burdened people, he then spoke in a low tone. "No matter what it is, I`ll definitely help you solve it one day." Zhihao returned to his original position as he saw Ma Dong and Ying Mai standing behind him. Ying Mai was about to comfort Zhihao, but decided not too, instead she just changed the subject. "Master, Low profile?" Zhihao heard Ying Mai as he nodded and replied: "Low Profile." After a few minutes of conversation around the whole of the Grand Hall, the King finally spoke. "Heroes, You`ll need to learn about how the things work in our World." Takeji, Yoshiro, Maya, and Nanami looked at the King as they wait for him to continue. The King nodded and spoke: "You`ll be able to learn your levels and magical powers as well as your attributes if you looked at your Status window, you can see it if you think of the word "Status Window"." Takeji''s group immediately did what the King said as all of them closed their eyes and focused on making the status window appear. After a while, they finally summoned the Status window as they looked at it, Maya and Nanami immediately jumped excitedly as they spoke. "Kyaaa! Like those in the games!" "Yep! Really felt like we''re inside the game!" Takeji sighed as he looked at the King and asked: "What does S in Talent mean?" The King smiled as he answered: "S talents are of the best of the best, there hasn''t been an appearance of an S talent like this happening in our World before." Yoshiro, Nanami, and Maya also looked at the words as they all spoke. "We''re S too." The King casually smiled as he nodded and replied: "Of course, you are the heroes of our World, that is to be expected." The four of them became a little excited as they nodded their head. The King then continued to speak of his plan for them. "I`d like the four of you to learn Magic and Swordsmanship from our best Magicians and Swordsman, They will be arriving here in a few moments, I`ll bring you four to our Treasury as for all of you to be equipped." The King then looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "Young Man, and the two others behind you, they can also come along with us. I`ll also give you types of equipment for safety purpose, and for your self-defense if you wanted to go out for a walk, but before you do that, please notify me first, all of your safety is our priority after all." Takeji smiled at the sincerity of the King in protecting Zhihao''s group. Zhihao casually smiled as he didn''t reject it, he might see something good in there. he then looked at Ying Mai, and Ma Dong as he spoke. "The Both of you, Let''s go." Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded their head as they replied: "Yes Master." Zhihao led the two of them as they followed Takeji''s group, then Zhihao tried to do something as he closed his eyes, he tried to feel the energies within the whole empire and tried to scan for the Treasure room. After finding the room, he felt something is blocking his scan, he then shook his head as he spoke to Ying Mai and Ma Dong. "Something is inside the Treasury, be sure to be alert, but don''t do anything before I actually make my own move." Ying Mai and Ma Dong immediately nodded as they replied: "Yes Master." After a few minutes of walking, they had finally arrived at the front of the treasury''s room, Zhihao, Ma Dong, and Ying Mai were all shocked as they saw the statue of a Woman and a Man that looked like they are the Guardian of the room. Zhihao then spoke. "Goddess?" Ying Mai and Ma Dong are both still staring at the Statue as they both have the same conclusion, the statue definitely looks like one who can be deemed as a Goddess! Both of the statues were wearing a Knight''s armor set, but without a helmet, as they both held their sword and pointed it at the ground. Then, a voice interrupted the Three''s daze as it spoke. "That''s my Grandfather and Grandmother." Chapter 152 Dancing Treasures. In front of the Treasure Room, Corridor. After hearing the voice spoke, Zhihao, Ying Mai and Ma Dong looked behind them. They saw a fine Lady full of elegance, long black hair, smooth skin jade white skin, blue eyes, and a very gorgeous face, wearing a blueish dress, she smiled at them and bowed, showing her royal manners. She saw the three of them looked at her at the same time, she then turned her eyes towards Zhihao''s direction as she waited for his response. Zhihao tilted his face as he asked: "You are?" Hearing Zhihao''s question, she almost stumbled, she then fixed her posture again as she looked at Zhihao and smiled. "I am the Princess of this Empire, My name is Maria Lorelei." After speaking, Lorelei smiled as she bowed towards Zhihao''s group. Zhihao scanned her as he nodded and replied: "I`m Zhihao, this is Mai, and This is Ma Dong, nice meeting you." After introducing them real quick, Zhihao''s group immediately faced the treasury room as he followed the rest. Lorelei''s smile vanished as she tilted her head and asked in a low voice. "That''s it?" Lorelei sighed as she followed behind Zhihao''s group. The King smiled at them as he proudly introduced. "Heroes! This is our Treasure room! All the things inside are powerful items that came from the previous generations, the heroes of that time, the saviors of our world, the ones that had fought for our Empire before and established the paradise of humans." After speaking, The King smiled as he opened the Door. A Majestic sight was revealed after the door was opened, mountains and mountains of dazzling golden treasures can be seen piling up together. Takeji, Yoshiro, Maya, and Nanami opened their eyes in shock as they couldn''t believe what they are actually seeing. Maya looked at Nanami as she asked: "We would be billionaires, even trillionaires if we bring half of these back with us to Earth." Nanami nodded her head repeatedly and couldn''t reply. Takeji and Yoshiro smiled at the two of them as they sighed. The King looked at Takeji''s group as he spoke. "My Father, once told me, if there were ever an event where the human races face extinction, four heroes will be summoned in the Grand Hall to help us resolve our catastrophe, and once we bring them inside the treasure room, the treasure itself will choose them instead." Takeji''s group was shocked, they then looked at the King waiting for him to continue. The King noticed this as he nodded. "Let''s enter, Let us see which treasure will choose the Heroes." After speaking, the King led the way inside as he spoke. "Try to concentrate and calm yourself, feel the fate that you have and a treasure will immediately respond to your call." After hearing the King''s words, they immediately looked at each other, this time, Takeji took the initiative as he walked forward. Takeji closed his eyes as he started to focus, feeling the energy within him as he releases his thoughts. After a while, a sword in the top of the treasures vibrated as it flew up in the air, after that, a shield also slowly floated together with the Sword as it started to make its way to Takeji. Everyone nodded as they clapped. The King then spoke: "The Sword and Shield of the founder of our Empire, Our very own legacy itself!." Takeji opened his eyes as he grabbed the sword and shield, he then walked back towards his classmates as he spoke. "It is your turn now guys." The three of them walked side by side as they stood in the middle of the treasure room. They immediately imitated Takeji as they released their thoughts and focused solely on their heart. After a while, the treasure trove shook as four items floated in mid-air, Two Swords and two Staffs slowly came closer as it stopped in front of them. The Three opened their eyes as they stretched their hands to get it. Yoshiro smiled as he spoke. "Two swords! Wow! Even on Earth, I haven''t seen any of such quality before." Nanami also smiled as she replied: "Mine is a staff made of steel too! It looked like those that were wielded by the monks on Earth." Nanami and Yoshiro immediately went super excited as the ones they had received are too awesome, they then looked at Maya waiting for her reaction, but after a few seconds, they didn''t hear anything. Yoshiro and Nanami walked closer to Maya as a voice spoke. "Don''t come any closer." Yoshiro immediately stopped, but on the other hand, Nanami smiled as she immediately rushed towards her and grabbed Maya''s arms, Nanami immediately saw her weapon as she laughed. "Hahahaha! A wooden stick! A wooden stick! HAHAHAHA" Maya glared at her as she tried to grab Nanami''s weapon and spoke. "No! this is mine! This is mine!" Nanami laughed at her as she spoke: "Here take it." Nanami gave her staff to Maya as it immediately returned back to her. Maya had eyes full of tears as she spoke: "This is not fair! This is not fair!" The King sighed as she looked at her and spoke: "That wooden staff, is the most powerful weapon in the Treasury, It amplifies the power of a Magician when they used fire by ten folds, if you combined all the three weapons here, The wooden staff would at least surpass them but only a little." Hearing the King''s words, Maya immediately stood up as she calmed her self down and spoke. "hmmp! Such weak weapons you guys have." Maya immediately returned beside Takeji as she proudly walked with her Wooden stick. The four of them laughed awkwardly as they chatted some more, then Takeji looked at Zhihao as he spoke. "You should take some protections too." Zhihao wanted to decline again, but meeeh, something getting for free is good. Zhihao then nodded as he walked and spoke: "Then, I`ll try my luck too." But just after Zhihao had entered the door, the mountains of treasures immediately shook as everything immediately floated, surrounding him. The pile of treasures looked as if it''s dancing around him as some of them are even glowing, it can be described as something like a group of girls dancing in front of him wanting to catch his attention. Even the weapons that Takeji''s group held wanted to break free from their grasp as they wanted to join their fellow treasures in attracting Zhihao''s attention. Everyone was shocked as they opened their eyes widely in a very confused state and exclaimed. "Ehhhhhh?" Ying Mai and Ma Dong only shook their heads as they chuckled and thought. ''Master really is the supreme being, even the treasures won''t deny him of his extreme elegance.'' Chapter 153 How Dare You! Treasury room of the Dawnton Holy Empire. The Treasures floating around Zhihao kept dancing, circling around him, trying to attract his attention, seeking his hands to grab them. Everyone was shocked at what''s happening this time, something incredible is going in front of them again. Even the Heroes'' weapons wanted to break free from their clutches just to attract Zhihao''s attention. Zhihao sighed as he couldn''t think of any excuse. Ying Mai giggled as she spoke to Ma Dong. "So much for trying to have a low profile." Ma Dong chuckled as he replied: "Well, who can deny the Supreme One''s extreme elegance and his power." Ma Dong and Ying Mai only nodded their head as they already got so used to it. Takeji and his group became shocked as they thought inside their head. ''Is he really an ordinary human?'' Everyone is starting to think otherwise. Then the King broke the silence as he spoke. "Everyone, I think it''s the same thing that happened before, Like the creator of the testing crystals, the treasure seemed that they want to protect him because he is too ordinary, and him living here is definitely dangerous." After hearing the King''s words, everyone accepted it as if it''s the fact, well I mean, even the heroes only had one or two weapons flew in front of them, so how can an ordinary human attract their attention, that must be the only explanation they can get, to protect the most ordinary human. The King then looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "Go and pick some out then, It would help to protect you in our world." Zhihao breathed a sigh of relief as he nodded and opened his palm while gathering his Spiritual Energy in it, trying to look at which items would suit him. Six pieces of stone with different colors then immediately flew towards his hand, White, Black, Red, Blue, Brown, and Grey. at first glance, those stones looked like it is a single piece, but if you looked closer, each stone can be separated in four. Zhihao looked at the stones in confusion, the knowledge that the Supreme Martial God, Arthariaz, had given him doesn''t seem to have any knowledge with the stones. Zhihao then sighed as he grabbed them. Everyone saw it happened as they pondered what were those stones actually are, then they looked at the King for his opinion. The King coughed as he spoke: "I haven''t seen those stones before, I think we would only be relying on his fate if he could ever do something about it or use it himself, we can''t really do something about it as the treasure choose him." Pausing for a few seconds, The King looked at them as he spoke: "Let''s have a banquet for welcoming the Heroes into the World! The savior of Mankind!" "Yes!" Everyone immediately bowed as they went into their way to prepare for the banquet as they scattered amongst themselves, dividing the duties for themselves. Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai and Ma Dong as he spoke: "You two, come here and check if you`ll get anything out of the treasure room, King, can my two companions get some too?" The King seeing everyone had left and only 9 of them had been left spoke: "Yes, yes, of course, go and let them in the Treasure room." The King actually had forgotten the two of them as he was shocked at what Zhihao had shown them. Ying Mai and Ma Dong immediately nodded as they walked closer towards the Treasure room. The King only nodded at them as he spoke. "We''ll go to the throne room first, you should follow us afterward." The King thought that it would be another disappointment since those two were just normal working class talent, so he just went and proceeded back to the throne room, to introduce the Heroes to their Mentors. Zhihao smiled as he saw the silhouette of the King and Takeji''s group leaving, he then looked at Ying Mai and Ma Dong and spoke. "Try it for now." "YES!" Ma Dong and Ying Mai replied after hearing Zhihao''s word. Ma Dong and Ying Mai stood in the middle of the treasure room, immediately like the treasure''s reaction towards Zhihao, they all vibrated as they tried to attract Ma Dong, and Ying Mai''s attention, the only difference is that it wasn''t as grand as when Zhihao did it, they only floated from their original position. Ma Dong and Ying Mai then opened their hands as they stretched it forward, gathering their Spiritual Energy in the palm of their hands. Towards Ying Mai flew pieces of something that looked like wood, a massive amount of it. In Ma Dong''s side then flew a big hammer looking thing with a very sharp edge, and a few iron looking things as well. Zhihao then scanned the things with his appraisal as he spoke. "High Elf Wooden Enhancer, Dwarven metal and a hammer?" Zhihao scanned the hammer as another information kept showing in front of him, he then continued. "Mountain Dwarf King''s Great Hammer Ax?" Zhihao then nodded at the great treasures they had acquired, he then continued. "Keep it in your Interspatial Ring, for now, find a new one and less showy to show later." "Ma Dong and Ying Mai nodded their heads as they responded. "Yes, Master." They then picked up some treasure with a really weak power to just show them, for some reasons, Ying Mai picked a carving knife, while Ma Dong chose a Blacksmith''s hammer. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke. "Yep, those are definitely very ordinary, let''s go to the Throne room then." Ma Dong and Ying Mai nodded as they followed Zhihao. After a while, the three of them finally arrived at the Throne room as they saw a very grand feast already in place. The King and Takeji''s group didn''t notice Zhihao''s entrance, but there are other four noticed them standing, surrounding Takeji''s group as they spoke happily, then those four silhouettes noticed Zhihao''s entrance as they frowned and withdrew their weapons. One of the Silhouettes immediately withdrew his weapon as he dashed forward to Zhihao''s location, the other three then nodded at each other as they followed him. The one leading the four arrived in front of Zhihao as he wielded his sword and slashed down. The King noticed their movements as he looked at where they went, then he noticed that It was Zhihao''s group! Takeji''s group immediately noticed it as looked, they immediately got shocked as their group, the King, and the Princess shouted. "STOP!" The Man wielding his sword down toward Zhihao heard it as he shouted. "Not Good!" He wanted to stop his sword from going down but it''s actually too late, his sword is already halfway to Zhihao, and with the force he used, He can''t pull it back up now. But just right at this moment, the Man wielding his sword down towards Zhihao felt a very tremendous killing intent, it feels like time has slowed down as he looked at the ones beside Zhihao. What he actually saw were just normal eyes, but this time, while looking at them, it felt like two Death Gods had descended in front of him. Ying Mai immediately rushed forward together with Ma Dong, Ma Dong was about to smash his head with his hammer, but Ying Mai already stole his spotlight as he saw her wielding her Knife. "HOW DARE YOU!" Ying Mai shouted in extreme thirst to kill. Ying Mai collected all of her Spiritual Energy toward''s her knife as she intended to slash the man wielding his sword in front of her Master in half, then she heard Zhihao spoke through her mind. "Low Profile." Ying Mai immediately collected 99.99% of her Spiritual Energy as she redirected her body slash towards the sword instead. Ying Mai''s knife immediately hit the sword as it pushed the sword back towards the Man and immediately blowing him away in front of Zhihao. The Man saw this as he immediately exclaimed: "What?!" But just right after speaking, he was blown away as he slammed back to the wall and even penetrated it, he finally stopped at the second wall that he slammed into. Everyone''s mouth opened in shock, as they all have only one thought in mind. "What the f*ck did we just saw?!" Chapter 154 Drunken Haze Throne room. Everyone was shocked at what they had just witnessed as they looked at the man that flew out of the Throne room and slammed towards the next wall. They then looked at Ying Mai again as they became even more bewildered. One of the three silhouettes spoke. "Who is she?" The King answered in a murmuring tone. "A normal... Human..." Hearing the King''s word, all of the ones in the throne room shook as they looked at Ying Mai. The one that spoke before shuddered as she replied. "Is she really a human?" Everyone looked at Zhihao''s group of three immediately, they still remembered how the talent crystal''s reaction earlier happened. they were all categorized as working class, and Zhihao is even a regular human, what the hell is happening now. Zhihao then broke the silence as he spoke: "She''s my bodyguard, they have a very good balance to their core, I hired them for a hefty price." Hearing this, The King and Takeji''s group nodded in confirmation, but they are still mesmerized by how powerful Ying Mai became earlier. they were still carrying a little doubt. I mean, which female on Earth could actually throw a very well built man away to penetrate a wall until slamming the next one. Zhihao then laughed as he continued: "So we should go and have our introductions now right?" The King sighed as he replied: "Yes, It seems that I had forgotten to introduce my self, I am the King of this Empire, I am King Philip the IV." The other three then nodded as they spoke. The two Ladies started first. "I`m Patricia, The Greatest Flame magician within the Empire." "Nicole, The Best Magician in terms of Ice magic." The man behind them then spoke. "Ricardo, the dual blade swordsman." Patricia then looked at the hole that was made by Ying Mai where she placed their comrade in and spoke. "The one in that hole is the greatest knight within the whole empire, his name is Arthur." Takeji''s group immediately became shocked, The strongest knight in the whole empire got thrown off by Earth''s bodyguard? and a woman at that? Zhihao chuckles noticing Takeji''s reaction he then spoke: "Well, I might call her my bodyguard, but I guess there''s some evolution within her muscles after arriving here." All of them looked at Zhihao and then just sighed, maybe that was the case since the Talent Crystal only showed them that. Zhihao then broke the silence again as he spoke: "Should we star the Banquet?" The King lightly nodded as he clapped and spoke: "Okay, let the banquet start! Everyone!" After speaking, people outside the room poured in as they chatted with one another. Takeji immediately went and sat at a table as he called out. "Zhihao-sama, Let''s eat together in this table." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay, Ying Mai, Ma Dong, Let''s go." The three of them immediately walked as they sat together with Takeji''s group. The two groups chatted amongst themselves, although Ma Dong and Ying Mai only nodded occasionally, as they ate. Takeji kept glancing at Ying Mai''s direction while eating, Ying Mai noticed this as she looked at Takeji and smiled. Takeji immediately blushed and goes back to eating. The King immediately broke the small chattering with his next speech. "This would be the time that I`ll be releasing my best wines stored!" After the King spoke, a lot of beautiful maidens brought over jars after jars of wines, a lot of jars were placed in front of Zhihao''s and Takeji''s group. Zhihao was about to reject, but then, he remembered his wives back in the cultivation world, he then immediately opened one up as he lifted it and placed it at his lips, drinking the whole jar full of 3 gallons of wine in a single breath. "Gaaa! soo good! I need one more here!" Zhihao spoke after finishing his jar. The King looked at Zhihao as he nodded. "Give our heroes'' companion some more wine!" The King already noticed it since the beginning, that Zhihao had been the most bothered transferring to their world, how much would a person miss their loved ones after leaving their original country. He himself, as a King had those times, especially when his wife died, he immediately smiled resembling himself in Zhihao''s position. Zhihao then took it easy with the next jar of wine as he actually poured it in the glass, he then looked at Takeji''s group as he spoke. "Come on! Let''s drink!" Takeji and the rest smiled as they shook their head and spoke: "We''re actually minors, we''re only 17 years old." Zhihao smiled and nodded as he replied: "That''s a shame then, I guess more for me!" Ma Dong joined Zhihao as he drank the wine, one glass after another, he also missed his family after all. Ying Mai was thinking of not drinking but seeing Zhihao''s depressed mood, she joins him as she took some wine and had some sip of it too. After a few minutes, a person arrived near them as she spoke. "Hello Heroes, and Mister." Takeji was stunned yet again as he saw a very gorgeous woman. She then introduced herself to Takeji''s group. "I`m the Princess of Dawnton Holy Empire, My name is Maria Lorelei" Maya and Nanami tugged at him as they whispered in his ears. "Isn''t the hero usually gets the Princess?" "Yep, Yep, those were usually what happens when a story ends right?" Takeji shook his head as he spoke: "I already have someone I like, so I really can''t" Maya and Nanami giggles as they continued to eat and chatted among themselves. Yoshiro chuckled as he adjusted his seat, Maya and Nanami did the same. Takeji followed them as they let the Princess sat beside Takeji and Zhihao. Lorelei smiled at them as she spoke: "Thank you, heroes." After speaking, Lorelei sat at the chair as she adjusted it a little closer to Zhihao. Yoshiro, Maya, and Nanami almost spat out the food and water in their mouth as they saw what happened. The Princess is interested in a normal human rather than the Hero itself, the three of them stood up as they patted his shoulders. Takeji shook them off as he spoke. "It''s not a big deal, I just said that I already have one I like." The three of them sat as they continued to chat with others. Zhihao kept drinking as he finally got a little drunk. Lorelei immediately felt the depression in his face as her heart felt his pain immediately. She tried to comfort Zhihao and spoke. "Sir, if you drink too much, it would definitely be bad for your health." Zhihao looked at her and replied: "Don''t worry, something this mild wouldn''t affect me in the least." Although Zhihao had said that, he is starting to feel a little bit cloudy, he could easily disperse it but, he just wants to be drunk just for once, he missed his wives so much. Zhihao then stood up as he spoke: "Well, nevermind, I actually feel that I`m a little drunk now, I`ll go to my room then." Ma Dong and Ying Mai stood up as they followed Zhihao out. The Princess also followed and spoke: "Wait, I`ll lead you to your rooms." The Princess followed them and led them to their rooms, after reaching there, Ying Mai spoke. "Princess until here is good enough." Lorelei smiled as she walked and returned to her own room, if Zhihao wasn''t there, it would be really boring for her, so she had decided to turn for the night. Ma Dong looked at Ying Mai as he spoke. "I`ll need some fresh air, Take care of Master for now." Ying Mai nodded as she closed the door, she then walked while assisting Zhihao to bed. Zhihao then woke up with a bit of a headache as he looked at Ying Mai, he then spoke. "Ning''er? is this a dream?" Zhihao immediately touched Ying Mai''s face in a daze as he spoke. Ying Mai was shocked, she then replied. "Maste..." but before she could finish speaking, something soft blocked her lips. Chapter 155 I Love You Zhihao''s room. Ying Mai wanted to stop Zhihao, but something inside her broke, the crystal that she wanted to keep until she dies, she then instead gave in, she thought. ''Master, forgive me for this selfishness as I`ll take advantage of your depression.'' After just thinking, Ying Mai immediately hugged Zhihao''s body as she embraced her tighter. Zhihao went with the flow as he also embraced Ying Mai''s body, he then slowly pushed Ying Mai to the bed as he passionately undressed her slowly, then when Zhihao touched Ying Mai''s chest, he immediately woken up from her drunken haze as he looked at Ying Mai and spoke. "Since when did you grow Ning... Ying Mai?" Zhihao immediate dispersed the alcohol out of his body as he distanced himself from Ying Mai. Ying Mai''s eyes immediately went wet as she stood up and looked at Zhihao. Zhihao noticed the tears gathering in Ying Mai''s eyes and spoke. "Ying Mai, I`m really sorry about..." But before he could finish Ying Mai bowed and spoke. "Master, It was my own selfishness, I took advantage of your depression and took action, please punish this subordinate of yours." Zhihao shook his head and spoke. "I`m sorry Ying Mai, but let''s just forget that this happened." Ying Mai smiled sadly as tears flowed to the stone floor and nodded. Ying Mai then looked at Zhihao as she thought inside her. ''To you Master, It might''ve just been some sort of accident, but to me, It would be a memory that I''d like to treasure forever." Ying Mai then spoke: "Yes Master." After that, Ma Dong knocked on the door as he entered and spoke. "Master." Zhihao nodded and spoke to them: "About the situation we are currently in, I was about to go here alone, but due to you guys coming so close to me at that time, you both were dragged together with me, due to the power that I had used that time, I was exiled here for 50 years, It was a type of power with a contract, and my contract is to be exiled from my birth world, our Cultivation World." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded in response. Zhihao then continued: "We''ll have to try and live our normal lives here and also wouldn''t intervene with how this world will continue, I`d like to ignore the situation they have as much as possible, is that alright with the both of you?" The both of them nodded, no questions asked or doubt in their heart. Ma Dong then suggested. "Master, should we just leave this place and make our own vacation place instead then?" Zhihao pondered for a bit as he nodded and replied: "Yes, that''s a very good idea, why not then?" Ma Dong smiled and spoke: "Yes Master, should I ask for a copy of their continent''s map?" Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Yes, do that then." Ma Dong smiled as he nodded and spoke: "Yes Master." After speaking, Ma Dong looked at Ying Mai as he sent his voice in her mind. "I`ll take at least a few hours, make it count." Ying Mai was shocked at first, she then smiled and replied: "Thank you." Ma Dong then bowed to Zhihao as he left walking. After Ma Dong left, the atmosphere between Zhihao and Ying Mai became awkward again, remembering what happened earlier. Zhihao then sat in the chair in some distance away from Ying Mai. Ying Mai saw this as she spoke. "Master." Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and asked: "What is it?" Ying Mai smiled at him as she replied: "I Love you." Zhihao became speechless as he avoided her gaze. Ying Mai then continued and spoke. "I won''t give up..." Zhihao glanced at Ying Mai as he was about to speak and prevent her from saying anything else, but Ying Mai already continued. "I`ve tried to force myself to give up my love for you, I even sealed my feelings to avoid hindering your path to supremacy, but everything broke up when I felt your lips in mine." Zhihao looked at Ying Mai with sympathy as he tried to speak. "Ying Mai, I... I don''t know how to reply." Ying Mai then shook her head and spoke. "I won''t give up the second time Master, I`ll take my love until the end until you finally notice and accepts my feelings for you." Zhihao then looked at her and spoke. "Ying Mai, My feelings for you is of one I have with my friends, my closest friend, not of the opposite sex." Ying Mai finally gained her composure and spoke: "Master, Birds don''t just fly, they fall down and get up, Nobody learns how to do something without getting it wrong once, twice, three times, or more." Zhihao was about to speak, then Ying Mai persistently continued. "I won''t give up Master, I won''t give in to my selflessness until the end, until you finally accept my feelings and love me back, like the ones you have with Lady Verushka, Lady Ning''er, and Lady Xiao''er." Zhihao calmly looked at Ying Mai, not knowing what to say anymore. Ying Mai then continued again. "And If that time is not enough, I`ll start all over again, and try it until I finally succeed. I want to try everything, I still want to try even though I could fail. Until I reach my end, my death." Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai as he spoke. "Ying Mai, we should stop this discussion, nothing will come out of it." Ying Mai then replied: "That doesn''t matter Master." Zhihao asked: "Why?" Ying Mai spoke again: "I`ll keep making the same mistakes, even every day, those mistakes until I get the attention and love from you Master." "Why would you go to such drastic measures for me, I don''t deserve such. " Zhihao spoke. Ying Mai smiled at him and replied. "Master, It''s the selfishness of us women, It''s because what we thought of that we love someone, we won''t give up, I`m not asking for you to accept me immediately Master, but I`ll work hard, this I swear on my life, until my death." Zhihao couldn''t figure out anything anymore, he can''t think of any reply. Ying Mai then spoke: "It''s because, Master, I loved you from the bottom of my Heart, any other Men, even wealthier, more handsome, and stronger would not do, I don''t know why I feel like this, but this is my resolution, Master." Zhihao asked again. "Why?" Ying Mai shook her head as she couldn''t get her intention to Zhihao and spoke. "Master, I`ve already said it a lot of times, It is my selfishness, Forgive me for being selfish, but just this once, Master, Please let me do something I want to do, because I love you." Zhihao sat on his chair looking the other way not knowing what to do or say anymore, while Ying Mai is looking out of the window, feeling really inspired and motivated as a very long silence filled the whole room. Chapter 156 Leaving Zhihao''s room. Ying Mai and Zhihao kept silent as the two of them did what they wanted to do. Zhihao sighed as he laughed slightly. Ying Mai stood at the window as a breeze of fresh air, brushes her long silky black hair. The two of them just did what they wanted as a knock on the door sounded. Zhihao immediately spoke: "Enter." When the door opened, Ma Dong immediately came inside and spoke. "Master, I`ve already requested the Map of their continent." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Good, Give it to me." Ma Dong immediately handed the map as he explained what he had learned from the people from the Castle. The Continent has the shape of a diamond with 5 colors, 1/4 of the continent has a green color, another 1/4 of it has a violet color, white 1/2 of the whole continent has a black color, while there are grey and red colors mixed together in a lot of places, scattered through the whole continent, then there is an island above the continent that has no color, Zhihao then asked Ma Dong. "What are these colors for? what do they represent?" Ma Dong immediately replied. "Master, the Green one is the Human Continent''s territory, the Black one seemed to be the Demon''s territory, while the Violet one is the Demon Race''s Main territory." Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Then, that means there are still a lot of humans defending the Human Race, the walls here, are they high?" Zhihao pointed at the Borders of the Human Territory. Ma Dong immediately replied: "Master, they said that the Walls have the same height as their Castle, and wouldn''t be breached immediately." Zhihao pondered as he thought. ''If demons that I knew in the cultivation world were the ones or has the same species here, wouldn''t they easily breach the walls?'' Zhihao then asked next. "These grey and red colors, what do they represent, It''s scattered all over the Continental Map." Ma Dong then explained: "Master, those are Monster''s inhabitation places, they spoke of the Monster''s names, like Slimes, Wolves, Trolls, Goblins, Orcs, Ogres and more, the weakest is grey while the strongest is red, the darker the red is, the Stronger the Monster there are." Zhihao nodded and replied: "That''s a really interesting place then." Ma Dong smiled as he nodded. Zhihao then looked at the colorless Island as he asked. "This is?" Ma Dong replied immediately: "Those were the undiscovered islands, they only saw it once when they were fighting the Demon race, the Sketch might be more different as they haven''t encircled the whole island before." Zhihao nodded and thought. ''What if that area is another big continent?'' Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong as he asked: "Where do you think we should go after leaving? A good place to have our vacation." Ma Dong immediately pointed at three places as he spoke. "Master, these three has different attractions to them, this one is where it would be quiet, a good place to go if Master doesn''t want any noises, it also has a beach, it is uninhabited by humans because there are demon beast there." Ma Dong then explained another one: "And this one is good if you want to go sightseeing, a lot of unexplored mountains and canyons are there, there is also a rumor that there are living dragons in there, and a very big lake is beside it which Master can also relax,: Zhihao nodded and then asked: "The other one is?" Ma Dong smiled as he spoke: "This one is where the Dawnton Holy Empire''s capital is, it is the main focus of everything, Trades, Markets, Adventurer''s Guild, an Academy for Swords and Magic, Blacksmiths, Potion Crafters, and more. Master can take your leisure there through enjoying yourself instead." Zhihao nodded as he pondered for a bit, it would be boring to be in solitary for 50 years, he then spoke. "We''ll go to the Capital then, tell the King that we would like to go and live in the Capital, tell them that we''ll be enjoying our stay if they''ll give us some money or items for the travel that would be good too." Ma Dong immediately nodded as he replied: "Yes Master!" After speaking, Ma Dong immediately left wanting to carry out his Master''s orders as soon as possible. Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai as he spoke: "We''ll go there, tonight, prepare all the necessities we will be needing." Ying Mai''s smile immediate froze and went back to her cool demeanor and replied: "Yes Master." ... After a while, Ma Dong and Ying Mai came back carrying bags in each of their hands. Ma Dong got a ton of gold and silvers to spend, while Ying Mai got dried meat from the Princess. Ma Dong then spoke: "Master, they had prepared a Marching troop to assist us on our travel to the Capital." Zhihao pondered for a bit as he spoke: "Nevermind that, let''s just go to the Capital ourselves, it would be easier that way." Ma Dong and Ying Mai nodded. Zhihao then asked. "How far is the Capital from here?" Ma Dong replied immediately: "Master, It''s about 188,950 miles from here to there." Zhihao nodded as he closed his eyes and went inside his mind. Zhihao immediately used the System''s function as he started the Dimensional Scar. *Ding!* =Dimensional Scar, to be used with that distance would require, 1/10th of the Host''s Spiritual Energy, Proceed? Zhihao programmed the System to have the same voice and same notification popped up whenever he used it so that he wouldn''t ever forget Arthariaz. Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Proceed." Zhihao opened his eyes as he saw a scar within the Air formed. Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong and Ying Mai as he spoke. "Let''s go!" Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded as they entered the Dimensional Scar while Zhihao followed the two of them afterward. ... Outside of the Dawnton Holy Empire, a Grand Carriage is waiting for Zhihao''s group to arrive, a silhouette can be seen inside peeking outside the window. It is Lorelei, she wanted to follow Zhihao to the Capital and spend their days there together, begging her Father the King to let her go, even though the King is so much against it, he wanted his Daughter to be married to a Man she really loved, The King gave up as he permitted her daughter to go. Even though in Lorelei''s thought, Zhihao is only a normal Human, she already fell in love with Zhihao at first sight. Lorelei giggled as she spoke in a low tone: "I`ll get to be with him for 3 years inside this Carriage, I`ll definitely make him fall in love with me no matter what!" Continuing her dream, she whispered. "His handsome face, his great elegance, his posture, his body, I wish I could hold them forever." Chapter 157 Mana Dawnton Holy Empire''s Capital, Sacred Moonlight Kingdom. Within a distance, the foot of the mountain near the Kingdom, a big void crack appeared as three silhouettes walked out of it. It is Zhihao''s party of three. Zhihao looked at the horizon and asked Ma Dong. "Find a suitable place for us to settle in." Ma Dong immediately flew towards the sky as he scanned the Kingdom, he then contacted Zhihao. "Master, would you like to have a new Manor or would you like to purchase a new one." Zhihao pondered for a bit as he replied: "Just pick a location, I have a Mansion stored in my Interspatial Ring." Even though Zhihao had said that he scanned the Store that Arthariaz had left for him and found some great Mansions inside it, it also costs few points since it has not much of an effect, only relaxing effects. Zhihao immediately purchased one as it immediately went to his inventory. Ma Dong after scanning the surroundings for a few minutes, finally found one, a very spacious area with a pond beside it, he then immediately spoke. "Master, I`ve found one." Zhihao nodded as he flew towards where Ma Dong is, Ying Mai, followed behind them. Zhihao smiled as he saw the area, he then immediately tried to take out the Mansion, but then instead of a Mansion showing up, a blueprint like a window showed itself in front of Zhihao''s eyes. Zhihao then started with clicking the Mansion in the Blueprint as it showed a silhouette of the Mansion''s core placed on the ground. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke: "So, I can adjust it? that''s pretty cool." After a while, Zhihao placed the Mansion as it started to automatically build itself from the roots, Zhihao then placed all the other areas where he thought it would suit quite well, Gardens, Fountains, walls, etc. All types of decoration were immediately placed one by one, after two hours of floating, Zhihao smiled as he nodded at the Abstract he had made. Ma Dong and Ying Mai got cold sweats while staring at the Design of the Mansion, they immediately looked at Zhihao as they both spoke. "Master, Should I help you design the Mansion and its exteriors?" Ying Mai spoke nervously, she wanted to live with her Master, Zhihao, but if they''ll live here, they would definitely be mocked and that would ruin their peace. "Master, Let me help you in placing the other structures, please Master, I`m begging you let me help! PLEASE!" Ma Dong is on the Edge, just thinking about the fountain near the stable made his heart ache so much. Zhihao was shocked at the two of them and spoke: "Why are you guys being like that? You don''t like how I did it?" Both Ying Mai and Ma Dong kowtowed as they replied: "MASTER! PLEASE!" Zhihao was bewildered and shook his head as he replied: "Okay, Okay, stand up, we''re in the air, how can you guys even kowtow like that." The both of them immediately replied: "If it is for our Master''s Life, we might even be able to do the impossible!" Zhihao sighed as he spoke: "Okay, okay, Just tell me where do you want me to place the things." Ying Mai immediately started: "Master, please remove the green colored roof and replaced it with a brown wooden color, and the pinkish brown walls should be white, or black depending on your taste." Ma Dong started too: "Master, the Garden should be placed behind the Mansion, and please put the fountain in there too, the other fountain should be at least 70 meters away from the Mansion''s door, please remove it outside of the Mansion''s gate." The Both of them combined their might as they flooded Zhihao with their "suggesting" in what to change and what should be done. After another two hours, Ma Dong and Ying Mai panted while trying to save... remodel the Mansion''s designs. Zhihao looked at the Mansion as he touched his chin and spoke. "Should I color the Table pink with floral desi..." But before he could finish, both Ma Dong and Ying Mai interrupted him as they spoke: "Master, this is good! This is good!" Zhihao then nodded at their undefeatable wills and determination and replied: "Okay, let us enter then." Both Ying Mai and Ma Dong sighed a breath of relief as they nodded and replied. "Yes, Master." All of them entered that Mansion as they sat on the Guest room. Zhihao immediately tried to recover the Spiritual Energy he had used with the Dimensional Scar. Ma Dong and Ying Mai saw Zhihao and immediately followed suit. but just right after a few seconds, the three of them opened their eyes as they simultaneously spoke. "I can''t recover my Spiritual Energy!" The three of them looked at Each other as they pondered deeper into this. Zhihao then looked at the knowledge that Arthariaz had left for him, immediately he opened his eyes and spoke. "MANA!" Ying Mai and Ma Dong looked at Zhihao as they asked. "Master, what is Mana?" Zhihao looked at the two of them as he nodded and explained. "Mana is something like a Spiritual Energy, but the structure from the both of them are very different, we gather Spiritual Energy from the Heavens, while the Mana is gathered from the Earth, it''s nature, it''s inhabitant, everything that has a life has Mana." Both of them nodded as Ying Mai asked. "Master, if everything that has a life has Mana, how are we not benefitting from them?" Zhihao smiled as he replied: "We have mana in our bodies when we had arrived here, it started pouring into our body, we just don''t know how to use them yet." Both Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded at his explanation and asked. "What are we going to do then Master?" Zhihao closed his eyes as he looked into the Knowledge of Arthariaz, after a while, he opened his eyes as he threw some High-Grade Spiritual stones to the both of them and spoke. "We''ll use these stones to recover our Spiritual Energies, but you won''t be using your Spiritual Energy afterward, we have a limited supply of High-Grade Spiritual Stones right now, and we can''t just do anything about it." Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded as they replied. "Yes, Master." Zhihao thought for a bit as even Arthariaz didn''t know how to use Mana, which only led him to think of a very interesting solution. Zhihao looked at Ma Dong as he spoke. "We''ll enroll in an Academy, within the Kingdom, Ma Dong, you said that there are Academies here right?" Ma Dong nodded as he replied: "Yes Master, there are academies within the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay then, let''s go and learn how to use Mana there!" Ma Dong and Ying Mai smiled as they replied. "Yes, Master." Chapter 158 Forever Young Pills Zhihao''s Mansion. The three of them, Zhihao, Ma Dong, and Ying Mai started to recover their Spiritual Energy through the Spiritual Stones. Ying Mai and Ma Dong finished their recovery using half of the High-Grade Spiritual Stones, while Zhihao had already finished his 5th one and already draining the 6th stone. When the 6th stone was about to be drained, Zhihao opened his eyes and threw the tiny bit of the Spiritual Stone to the table. Zhihao then spoke to the both of them. "Ma Dong, Ying Mai, we should rest, for now, once we wake up tomorrow, we''ll start everything from there on." Ma Dong and Ying Mai immediately replied. "Yes, Master." Ma Dong immediately walked out of the room and went to pick his. Zhihao then went to the table as he pondered about something. but just when he''s about to enter his mind to search for the System''s functions, he heard a sound coming from his bed. Zhihao looked at the bed as he saw Ying Mai lying in his bed, pretending to sleep. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he spoke. "What are you doing?" Ying Mai chuckled as she replied: "I`m doing whatever I can." Zhihao didn''t know what to do as he spoke. "I`ll change room then, you can have this one." Ying Mai looked at Zhihao as she replied: "Thanks!" Zhihao stood up as he prepares to leave, then he saw Ying Mai standing up as she then, prepared to follow him. Zhihao tilted his head and spoke: "Now, what are you doing?" Ying Mai smiled at Zhihao''s question and replied: "I want to sleep in the same room and bed with you." Zhihao sighed and spoke: "We aren''t even Married yet, so we can''t really do that right?" Ying Mai heard Zhihao''s word and replied: "Oh! Yet? So I can marry you sometime in the future Master?" Zhihao sighed as he gave up and spoke: "Okay, I`ll sleep here, but no touching, Okay?" Zhihao sighed as he went to the other side of the bed and laid himself in it. Ying Mai smiled as she also went to the other side of the bed, she then stared at Zhihao''s face while laying there. Zhihao asked again: "What are you doing now?" "Not touching you." Ying Mai replied with a very innocent and lovely face. Zhihao sighed as he closed his eyes and started to sleep, after a few hours, Ying Mai noticed that Zhihao had really fallen asleep. Ying Mai started to talk to herself. "I`m sorry Master, I really Am in love with you, and I don''t know why too, you might be annoyed with me in the future, but this is the only selfishness that I won''t give up, no matter what." Ying Mai then laid in the other end of the bed, and after a few minutes, finally fell asleep. Zhihao then opened his eyes as he thought of every word Ying Mai had spoken, the word Ying Mai had spoken reached to his heart this time as he felt really bad for leaving Ying Mai hanging, he could only do two things, either stand his ground and reject Ying Mai or accept her feelings. After a while, Zhihao fell asleep while carrying the thoughts inside his head. ... Morning came as Zhihao woke up from his sleep, and what he saw first is Ying Mai''s beautiful face, sleeping soundlessly. Zhihao sighed as he stood up from the bed and immediately headed towards the Guest room. Ma Dong is done preparing their breakfast and is already waiting there, Zhihao spoke to Ma Dong he spoke: "Call Ying Mai first, then we''ll eat." Before Ma Dong could speak, Ying Mai walked down the stairs as she spoke. "Master, No need, I`m already here." Zhihao nodded and continued. "Let us eat." The three of them ate very slowly as they don''t want to have a messy table afterward. After an hour of Eating, Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he sighed. Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong as he spoke: "Ma Dong, go and check the requirements to enter the Academy." Ma Dong immediately nodded as he replied: "Yes Master!" After replying, Ma Dong immediately flew out of the Sky. Zhihao then stopped him and spoke: "Ma Dong, don''t fly when you return, try to purchase a carriage, we should conserve our Spiritual Energy within this world." After speaking, Zhihao threw a bag full of Spiritual Stones to Ma Dong and Ying Mai, containing 700 High-Grade Spiritual Stones in them. Zhihao then spoke: "I still have 2,000 pieces here, but we will be staying here for 50 years and we need to conserve as much as we can." Zhihao still have millions of Low-Grade Spiritual stones and Mid-Grade Spiritual Stones, but they are too little compared to the High-Grade Spiritual Stones, and it will take longer to use them, so he had decided to save them for now. Ma Dong nodded as he replied: "Yes Master." Ma Dong flew faster towards the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom and descended when he''s almost at the gates. Ma Dong asked around for all the locations of the Academies, and immediately, after just a few minutes, he found all 24 Locations of the Academies. Ma Dong quickly went there one by one asking for their Requirements, and as such, due to the slow phase of walking, Ma Dong finished everything after 4 hours of going back and forth. Ma Dong then quickly came back to Zhihao''s Mansion to report. After a while, Ma Dong finally came back to Zhihao as he reported. "Master, every Academy I had gone through had a very clear and stable requirement." Zhihao nodded then let Ma Dong continue. "It is that the one who wants to be enrolled needs to be in the age between 16 and 20." Zhihao nodded at his words and looked around, A 68-year-old Man, and a 142-year-old woman. Zhihao then thought inside his head as he purchased something in the Store that Arthariaz had left behind. Zhihao then looked at them as he withdrew two types of pills and 6 of them in total. Zhihao threw the pills as he spoke. "The Red one is a Bone Structural Pill, while the White one is an Age Reversing pill, it would make you both look like you when you were 18 years old, Take the Age Reversing pill first, before taking the Bone Structural Pill second, but those will make you look like 18 years old forever, I have a Pill that can dissolve those effects so don''t worry." Ma Dong and Ying Mai nodded as they swallowed the pill. Their bodies had shrunk as their features started to turn from once they were young, although they had started to stop aging when they reached Divine Realm lower stage, they were already aged before that had happened. Ying Mai was already 26 years old at that time hence, she still returned to her beauty when she was 18 years old. "Urg..." Unlike Zhihao''s transformation, they only felt small discomforts from the Age Reversing Pill as they calmed down. Ma Dong feature shocked Zhihao after the bones showing from his face immediately returned inside his face, and his body turning slimmer, Ma Dong became really handsome, but not as handsome as Zhihao''s face, he is the MC so he needed to be more handsome than anyone. Zhihao snickered as he jokingly spoke: "Ma Dong, didn''t think you were such a lady killer before." Ma Dong bowed as he replied: "Master, you jest, I was not like that at all, in fact, you are the most suitable to be called like that." Zhihao laughed together with Ma Dong, as they heard another voice. "Master." Zhihao looked behind as he saw Ying Mai standing there, blushing a little as she gently smiled at Zhihao. Ying Mai looked very gorgeous, and the way she smiled took the breath out of Zhihao in an instant, her fiery red hair flowing back to her knee, gracefully swinging as the air blew past it, her jade-white soft skin that could melt any men that she touched was lustering, her beautiful eyes that can make any Men fall in love with her, and what took Zhihao the most is the very innocent feeling he received while looking at Ying Mai. Comparing with Verushka, Ning''er, and Xiao''er, Ying Mai''s beauty is slightly above the rest. Zhihao then woke up from his daze and spoke: "So, you were that beautiful." Ying Mai blushed a little as she evaded Zhihao''s gaze, smiling with satisfaction, silence, extreme silence after that. Ma Dong then interrupted as he spoke: "Ahem, Let us go to the Academy to enroll, I`ll drive the Carriage to the entrance." Zhihao smiled at Ma Dong and replied: "Go on, we''ll enroll today." Chapter 159 Cutting in line Outside of Zhihao''s Mansion. Zhihao and the other two walked out of the Mansion as they came in front of the Carriage. Ma Dong immediately went to the Driver''s seat. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he spoke: "Go in." Ying Mai smiled as she replied: "Yes Master." Ying Mai then entered the Carriage as she sat on the other side. Zhihao then entered afterward and sat, he then called out to Ma Dong. "Ma Dong, Let''s go." Ma Dong nodded as he replied. "Yes, Master. Hya!" After replying, Ma Dong immediately made the horse move. Ying Mai looked at Zhihao as she blushed slightly as she gritted her teeth and stood up, she then sat next to Zhihao while looking out the window. Zhihao was shocked as he was about to speak. "You... you...." But before he could utter a word, Ying Mai intervened. "I`m not touching." With a blush that is turning her face as red as a tomato, Ying Mai smiled satisfied. Zhihao was about to say some more, but then just gave up as he shook his head and stared at the other side of the window. ... After a few minutes, Zhihao''s party finally arrived in the Entrance of the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom. Seeing their Luxurious carriage a lot of people was bewildered and started a chatter amongst themselves. "Why are they falling in line?" "Maybe it''s cause it is their first time lining up." "Yeah, I guess it''s their first time on the Capital." "Yep! but such Modesty, I think they are good Lords from other provinces." "Yep! Definitely." The Chatter continues as Zhihao''s group finally arrived at the entrance. The Guard took the 8 silver coins and let the Carriage pass after searching the whole carriage for any weapons. After a while, Zhihao asked Ma Dong. "Which Academy would suit us more for learning Mana?" Ma Dong pondered for a bit and replied. "Master, there are three which I think would suit us in learning how to control Mana based on the people I had asked, It''s the Blue Pegasus Academy, the Dragon Blaze Academy, and the Holy Magic Academy." Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Which are the characteristics of these Academies?" "The Blue Pegasus focuses on all magic, but they are more versed in Water Magic, the Dragon Blaze Academy is the same, but they focus on Fire Magic instead, then the Holy Magic Academy is a jack of all trades, but Masters of none." Zhihao nodded and spoke. "We''ll go to the Holy Magic Academy." Ma Dong immediately drove towards the Holy Magic Academy as they parked the carriage and move towards the enrolling section. The Holy Magic Academy is almost as big as a City, with its glorious sky scrapping building it its very wide spaces with a lot of Facilities. Zhihao and the rest finally arrived at the reception area of the Academy as they lined up. A lot of the enrolled students wonder about in the vast Academy, and some had the chance to witness their arrival. Witnessing Zhihao''s appearance together with Ying Mai and Ma Dong, everyone was shocked. "Look at that man! is he enrolling in our school! I wish they get accepted!" "Yeah! although the other one isn''t as handsome as he is, he''s also a really great catch!" "One of them must be taken, look at that gorgeous girl beside them." "Woah! So beautiful! They perfectly fit together!" All sorts of commotion were heard, seeing the three of them. Zhihao casually waited in the line as he heard the noise, Him and Ma Dong casually ignored it and didn''t make a big deal out of it. But Ying Mai, on the other hand, kept smiling with a beautiful blush on her face, especially when she kept hearing how she and Zhihao looked very good together. With that said, everyone that spoke that they look together, Ying Mai would look at them as she smiles. Male or Female, after seeing Ying Mai smile at them immediately fainted, they felt like they had witnessed an Angel smiling at them. Thus, the start of the Ying Mai''s fan club was established, and their Motto is. -Protect our Angel''s beautiful smile!- After a while, when Zhihao was next, a noise entered their ears as they looked where it came from. "Give way! Give way!" The Men kept pushing everyone around as they headed towards the Reception room to register. Zhihao frowned and ignored it, he then looked at the Receptionist and spoke. "We three would like to enroll in your Academy." But right after finishing, the one causing a ruckus arrived beside him and spoke. "Boy! Let my Young Lord enroll first, I`ll give you a gold, so adjust yourself." The Receptionist frowned and was about to speak, but before she could do it, she saw a silhouette appeared in front of her. Ma Dong looked at the Man and the three others behind him and spoke. "I don''t know where you came from, but I won''t permit you to cut in front of my Mast... My friend!" Ma Dong glared at the man, making his stand. Zhihao had warned him not to call him Master, instead call him Zhihao or friend outside of their Mansion before, thus making this outcome. The Man chuckled as he rebuked. "Oh? What will you do? I`m a 4th-grade Sword Master, what will you do about it? Huh?!" Hearing the Man''s word, the surrounding students went pale as some of them spoke. "No way! A 4th-grade swordsman!" "Yeah! They are very strong!" Then someone narrated behind. "You needed to be at the very least be a 3rd grade swordsman before you could graduate in any academy, this man must be a Mercenary, or might be a great Swordsman that was hired by his Lord, after the 5th swordsman, there will come 10 more grades, but from 6th to 10th grade, only a few had ever reached it, numbering from less than a thousand in the whole Human race." The Man then looked around as he continued: "Why did I talk like that? I must be having a weird delusion earlier." Everyone looked at him weirdly as they shook their head and immediately focused their attention back to Zhihao''s group and the Man. Ma Dong then frowned as he was about to take action, then Zhihao spoke. "Get lost, or you won''t be able to move your hands again." Zhihao''s eyes were just as casual before, but he released a tiny bit of his killing intent focusing solely on the Man. The Man at first was about to laugh, then he felt the extremely mountain pressuring killing intent coming from Zhihao, his body immediately sweated a lot as he unconsciously retreated a few steps. The Young Man that was behind got tugged by the Man as he spoke. "What are you getting your legs to shake like that after just looking at that Young Lad, let me talk instead." The Young Man shove the swordsman in the back as he spoke. "I`m the Duke of Raking Mountain Kingdom''s son, and I`d like to enroll here, My name is Earl James de Carpio, It would be an inconvenience for you if you block my way." After speaking, everyone around them came to a chatter again. "No way! one of the top 500 Kingdom''s Duke''s sons!" "Yeah! oh no! Such a handsome guy immediately had a fight with him, this is bad!" Zhihao heard everything as he spoke. "Would you go behind the line, or want me to send you there?" This time, Zhihao didn''t release any killing intent and just casually spoke. Earl James frowned as he rebuked: "Arrogant!" But right after shouting, Zhihao spoke. "MA DONG!" Ma Dong smiled wickedly as he replied. "Yes!" Ma Dong immediately walked forward as he tilted his face, his lips arching into a very evil smile as he looked at James and spoke. James was about to speak, but before he could, Ma Dong did something. "UP YOU GO!" Ma Dong threw the four of them to the back of the line as he went back to Zhihao''s side, but he didn''t forget to leave a message. "Ants." Everyone that witnessed it became shocked, a 4th-grade swordsman couldn''t even fight as they were all thrown to the back of the lane. The Males felt admiration towards Ma Dong''s action as they saw him like an Idol, while the Females looked at him with flowers floating around him every time they stare at him. Chapter 160 Making New Friends Within the Reception area. The crowd went wild! They were chatting amongst themselves about what had just happened. Zhihao and the other two ignored everything as they proceeded with the enrollment. The Receptionist smiled at Ma Dong as he spoke. "You three are going to enroll?" The Receptionist smiled as having someone that can throw a 4th-grade swordsman just like that is definitely a prodigy. Zhihao let Ma Dong do the talking as the receptionist looks like he wanted to drag Ma Dong inside, just right after a few minutes, they immediately got enrolled immediately. The Receptionist gave them some papers and a key to their rooms, although they didn''t need such things since they had a Mansion, they just took it in case something happened. Zhihao and Ma Dong immediately walked away from the registration area and went inside the Academy. Every student dwelling inside looked at Zhihao''s group whenever they went and pass by, some of them even fainted occasionally. Zhihao then finally arrived at the classroom where they would be studying from now on, Zhihao immediately walked in as he tried to look for some seat for the three of them. The Classroom has three rows wherein a single table can fit four people to sit on it comfortably. The Students inside saw Zhihao as they became awed struck, and yeah, the females and males closer to the three of them immediately fainted as they saw a very bright light shining from them, the brightness that only gorgeously handsome and beautiful people emit. Everyone from the Class immediately made some space between them, wishing that they could sit together with any of the three. Zhihao then saw from the top middle row a person sitting alone, Zhihao then walked towards that location as he thought that it could fit the four of them. All of the student that got passed by Zhihao''s group either fainted or sighed in depression. They saw where Zhihao is heading to as they spoke among themselves. "Why is a prince sitting with a weirdo! It''s such a shame!" "Nooo! Of all the people to sit with, he had to choose that crazy idiot!" "A Talentless person sitting beside two Princes, and a Goddess, how illogical!" All sorts of protests sounded out in the air, trying to put a bad impression on the sleeping young boy to at least make Zhihao change his mind. Zhihao sat at the table as he ignored the voices and nudged the person who''s sleeping at the table and spoke. "Hello, we''ll be seatmates from now on." The sleeping young Man finally woke up as he grunted and took his hands out intending to shake his hands. "Nice to meet you, I`m Urokai Vandolf." "Zhihao, this is Ma Dong, and this is Ying Mai." Urokai finally lifted his eyes in a very lazy manner and scratched his head, he then looked at Zhihao''s group and immediately became shocked as he spoke unconsciously. "Such Beautiful Humans actually exists in this World..." Zhihao just chuckled as he replied. "Nice meeting you too." After speaking, a person appeared in the front and spoke. "Class will start now, you guys already know of the transfer students so I won''t introduce them to you, Last time, I introduced to everyone how to control Mana, today, we will have a practical test, but before that, I`ll review you guys again, since there are three new students it would also help them." After pausing for a while, the Man continued. "To the new Students, I am a 5th Grade Magician, teaching Magic in the Academy, My name is Cragus Davidad, Mana is something that is around us, surrounding us with its mystical powers, the power of Nature, and we, as Magicians try to control them through and bend them to our will, for example." Cragus stopped speaking as he opened his palm, a vortex of weak air formed in his hands as energies gathered in the Middle. Cragus then continued: "This is Mana, and what I`ll do next is bending the Mana with my focus." After speaking, the Mana in Cragus'' hand flickered as it started to be changed its color and form, it then slowly turned into an arrow looking flame. Cragus then looked at them as he continued. "I slowly did this so that you guys could observe, have you seen it? This magic spell is called Flaming Arrow." After speaking, Cragus dissolved the flames and continued: "Let us go to the Training yard now." "Yes!" Everyone was very excited to have a try too, so they immediately stood up as they prepared to leave. Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai and Ma Dong as he spoke. "Have you guys comprehended it?" Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded as they replied. "Yes Master, but only a little bit of it, I can''t really say how much I had learned through that lecture without testing it myself." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Okay, good, let''s go." Zhihao then looked at Urokai as he spoke. "What about you? going to continue sleeping?" Urokai smiled at Zhihao as he replied: "You guys go on, I don''t really have any talent for Magic, didn''t you hear them? Those words are really true." Zhihao nodded as this guy really didn''t have much of a connection with him, thus he just led Ying Mai and Ma Dong out, Zhihao then remembered something as he looked at Urokai and spoke. "Urokai, Everything will turn out for the better if you try harder." Urokai smiled at Zhihao as he went back to sleep. Zhihao then used "Talent Appraisal" Towards Urokai. Name: Urokai Vandolf(Hellscream) Race: Hybrid Human and Elf Level: 24 Magical talent: 1.5/100 Swordsmanship talent: 100/100 Item Amplification: 49/100 Zhihao was shocked, then shook his head and followed the rest of his Classmates. After a few minutes of walk, they had finally arrived at the Training Yard, It was full of Mannequins on a stick. Cragus immediately looked at them as he spoke. "This would be your target to practice, when you reach 2nd-Grade Magicians, you`ll then go and start with Moving ones, Understand? Who would like to go first?" Zhihao then spoke. "Sir, we three would like to start." Cragus smiled at Zhihao as he spoke. "Good, I like your boldness, you three go here." "Yes." The three of them then walked forward after replying. Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong and Ying Mai and sent them a message. "Low-key." Ma Dong and Ying Mai nodded. Cragus looked at Zhihao then spoke. "You go first." Zhihao nodded as he tried to gather some mana in his palm and immediately tried to form it immediately. All of them was shocked at what they saw. Zhihao then opened his eyes as he frowned, he tried to minimize the Gathering of Mana, but then what he saw are 10meter flame arrows, and there are thirty of them floating around him. Cragus shakingly muttered. "Flame Spears, a 7th-Grade Magic! and 30 of them..." Hearing this, everyone was shocked even further. Ying Mai and Ma Dong chuckled as they thought. ''So much for keeping a low-profile.'' Chapter 161 A Couple? Holy Magic Academy. Practicing Yard. Everyone was shocked as they are currently seeing something really outrageous. Cragus Davida then spoke. "How can you produce such great power?" Zhihao scratched his head pondering for an answer, and after a while, he thought of something as he shouted. "Shoot!" The thirty spear looking flames immediately rushed towards the Mannequin, one of the spears hit as it turned into a very small arrow-like flame, while the rest of the spears directly went past the Mannequin like it was some illusion. Zhihao scratched his nose as he replied. "It''s just an illusion technique that I was studying before, I wanted to test it, but I didn''t think that it could actually produce so much." Cragus sighed as he shook his head and spoke. "So It''s a Mirage spell?" Zhihao casually nodded as he smiled." Cragus smiled at him and spoke. "2nd-Grade Magic, Mirage, That''s good, but you should''ve told me before, you nearly got me there." Everyone nodded in understanding. "Next." Ying Mai then walked forward as she prepared herself, remembering what happened earlier, she tried to prevent herself from doing the same mistake as Zhihao and tried to minimize how little the Mana she could gather. Zhihao was about to remind her to be on a low-profile, but then, remembering how he failed, he casually shook his head and walked a little further. Ying Mai immediately formed a flame arrow in the sky, but what happened next shocked everyone. The flame arrow that Ying Mai had made started to solidify, not like Zhihao''s or Cragus flame arrow! it is becoming solid as armors started to form around it. "This... This..." Cragus became speechless, not knowing what else to say. Zhihao then quickly formed an alibi and spoke. "Ah! Ying Mai actually specializes in Flame powers, and she has an innate talent in modifying spell type magic." Cragus became shocked as he spoke. "This... there haven''t been any Magicians in the past thousands of years that can modify magic, what great talent! All of you continue." "Yes!" Cragus immediately walked towards Ying Mai and spoke. "Your name is Ying Mai, right? You will be one of the pillars of the Human Race, you should go to the Dragon Blaze Academy, they focus mainly on Flame Magic, they would help you improve much better than our Academy, Every head of our school will permit it." Ying Mai was about to speak, but before she could, Zhihao walked in front of Ying Mai. "Mister Cragus, I think, that, it is up for us to decide something like that, Ying Mai and I won''t be separated, even if it''s both within the same Empire." Everyone lining up for the Practical Magic testing immediately looked at Zhihao as they started a murmur amongst themselves. "They are a couple?!" "Wow! I didn''t expect something like that to happen." "Why not? An Awesome handsome guy like that needs a gorgeously beautiful woman in his side." "Yep, It''s a very acceptable reality." "Well, I don''t care now, since he''s taken, I`ll go with the other one." Hearing these chatters, Ying Mai smiled beautifully at them as she bowed and blushed, she was extremely satisfied. What Zhihao actually meant was that the three of them wouldn''t need to be separated as they wanted to stick together, so for them not to get find out. Cragus smiled at him and wanting to reject it, then he just shook his head and accepted everything immediately. "But, I`ll try to contact the Dragon Blaze Academy, if they could send some people here to help Ying Mai develop her powers furthermore." Zhihao just sighed as he nodded at his words. Cragus then looked at the students as he shouted: "Continue!" "Yes!" Ma Dong shook his head trying to stop his laughter from coming out of his mouth, he then started to gather the mana inside his palm trying his best to only manipulate a very small part of it. A flame formed within his hand, but something weird is happening, the flame arrow looked so bulky instead, like a pig shot by an arrow from his rear through his mouth, everyone started to laugh at how weird it is. Ma Dong then heard a voice inside his head. ''Throw it upward, don''t throw it at the Mannequin.'' Yes, It is from Zhihao, Ma Dong immediately threw it upward and after it had reached a kilometer away, it exploded, the explosion looked like a very powerful one, comparable to a nuclear explosion. All the ones that had laughed before shut their mouth immediately, witnessing such destructive power, their laughter was transformed into awe. Cragus frowned as he touched his forehead, his only thought now is. ''What the hell is wrong with these three... One has illusion magic, one has modification magic, and another one has explosion magic...'' That question is now mostly contained within everyone mind, witnessing the scene today, they are either struck with awe or fearing the outcome if those things actually hit them. Cragus sighed as he continued. "Next!" Within a building, two silhouettes are observing the whole thing at the roof as they looked at what had just happened. one of them spoke, a very feminine and seductive voice came out. "Are they the Heroes of our Human Race?" The other one immediately shook his head and replied. "The heroes are within the Royal Empire, I had received news that they only arrived yesterday, if they rushed here, it would at least take 2 months, and 1-month using flying magic. The Female looked sharply at Zhihao as she spoke. "Are those three spies from the Demon Race?" "I don''t know, but that guy, the one that started the Practice, you are a Magician, were those really illusions?" The Massive Man with two heavy swords in his back asked. The Female shook her head and replied: "I don''t know myself, Either it''s an illusion that carries real power or... that Young Man is at least at a Sage level like me, maybe stronger." The Massive Man frowned, if that really is the case, they either received a great reinforcement or the end of their human race. The Female then looked at the other one and spoke. "Let us only observe for now." "What if... they are spies?" The Man asked. The Female immediately frowned thinking of another solution as she sighed and looked at the Man. "Let us still watch, Our powers were only enough to defend the whole Empire, and if we fought another Unknown enemy, the Human territory will immediately be breached." The Man frowned sadly as he spoke: "We''re already in our 50s, if it continues, our Human race will immediately be extinct after we die, I wish those heroes become stronger faster, it will be better if they kill the Demon King." The Female nodded as they both continued to observe. After a while, the practical test ended with no more suspense or surprises, all of them returned to school as he spoke of two things. One is how awesome their new classmate''s abilities are, and the other one is how a great couple is inside the Academy. Rumors about it started growing by every flowing time and immediately scattered through the whole Academy. The Great Couple, Zhihao and Ying Mai, the Heavenly Pair. Chapter 162 Demonic Technique Holy Magic Academy. After three hours of class from Cragus, the next one is their last class for today. The chattering of the students build up as the focus of all the attention is Zhihao''s group of three, they are currently surrounded with a group of students asking. "Hey! Ying Mai, can you teach me how to modify fire magic?" "Yes, It is too awesome!" "Ma Dong, your name is weird, where did you come from?" "Ma Dong, are you single?" "Ma Dong, can you teach me how to make those explosive skills?" "Zhihao, those mirage skills are the best, if you can teach me that, I can scare Monsters away!" "Yeah, it would really be a big help!" Questions keep flooding to the three of them, Zhihao''s group kept sighing as they really can''t explain anything, and they just can''t say that they have Godly physiques from the cultivation world, or they are just so powerful that Mana bends for them. These questions made them sigh, not knowing what to do, but before the questions continued, someone barged into their room and spoke. "Hello Dear classmates, I`m your senior from the 3rd year department, I`m Michael Mediev, Is this the place where the beautiful princess, Ying Mai studies?" Some of the student''s got excited as they spoke. "Isn''t that the genius magician Michael Mediev?" "Yeah, although he''s only 20 this year, he''s already a 4th-Grade magician, although, doesn''t his appearance a little stretched from the rumors?" "Yeah, I can''t really say that he''s handsome, more like above average..." "Yep, he isn''t that handsome as the rumor say." "What a disappointment." Although they say that, they just got used to how Zhihao, Ma Dong, and Ying Mai looked, which made their standards soar leaps and bounds. A decent looking guy entered the classroom as he scanned the whole area since no one responded to his question, after a while, Michael saw a group of people gathering in a big group, he smiled as he approached them. Noticing that Michael is approaching, a lot of students made way to him, he is their senior after all. Michael then smiled at those students as he continued walking forward. Then, just like a meteor hitting him, he saw Ying Mai, he became speechless immediately. Ying Mai looked towards Michael, but just after a glance, she then looked back at Zhihao and smiled. The smile that Ying Mai did was so mesmerizing to him, Michael immediately resolved his will and spoke. "You are Ying Mai right?" Ying Mai tilted her head and nodded before ignoring him again. Michael frowned as he felt very sad by what Ying Mai did, he was always called the most handsome male in the school, hence, his pride was wounded, a lot of the female members of the academy would just at the thought of getting to talk to him, yet Ying Mai had ignored him. He then looked at who is she smiling at, and yet, another one appeared, no two of them! Seeing Zhihao and Ma Dong''s face, he paled and spoke. "What kind of group are you guys." Michael''s words caught Zhihao''s attention and looked, but then immediately disregarded him. Michael gritted his teeth and spoke. "Which of the two of you is Ying Mai''s boyfriend?" After hearing Michael''s words, almost everyone pointed at Zhihao. Michael glared at Zhihao and spoke. "I challenge you to a duel, the price is Ying Mai''s hands." "Woaaah!" Almost everyone became excited and awed at Michael''s declaration, then it was immediately halted by Zhihao''s next word. Zhihao looked at Michael as he smiled and had gone with his play. "Are you stupid? She''s mine already, why do I have to challenge you? What benefit would I get?" Everyone in the classroom was shocked as they exclaimed. "So they are really going out together!" "Woah!" "Such a great news indeed!" "I`d like to see them grow old together." Zhihao''s group and Michael ignored the chatter, Zhihao''s group laughed while Michael felt ashamed, what kind of duel is it that only one benefits, Michael then thought of something to trade. "If I lose, I`ll give you my staff. this Staff is our Family heirloom, and its value is very good if you`ll wish to sell it too." Zhihao frowned as he looked at Michael, immediately, Zhihao released a tremendous killing intent focusing solely towards Michael. Zhihao then glared as he spoke. "Would you sacrifice a woman for a staff? How dare you even have a duel with those thoughts in mind." Although the tone that Zhihao had spoken is very calm, everyone is actually bewildered. As before Zhihao could speak, Michael had already fallen in the ground with his rear first, everyone can see a pool of watery spot beneath him, they alternately looked at the calm Zhihao and the very terrified Michael. Michael shuddered as he stare at Zhihao, Zhihao is looking at him calmly, but to Michael, The God of Death is looking at him, prepared to devour his very soul. Michael stood up as he runs away and repeatedly shouted. "Demonic Technique! Demonic Technique!" Everyone tilted their head as they saw the running Michael, then one of them laughed as he mockingly spoke. "Hahahaha! The great handsome genius, Michael ran away with his tail between his legs, only leaving a pool of pee in the floor! haha haha this is really great!" Waking up from their stupor, everyone started to laugh at the event that had happened. Ying Mai looked at Zhihao and spoke. "Yes, Master, I am definitely yours." Zhihao smiled at her and replied: "Yes, of course." Ying Mai blushed a little as it ended with Zhihao''s next words. "You are my Celestial General after all." Ying Mai''s smile vanished and was replaced by a poker face. Throughout the whole day, Ying Mai ignored Zhihao. ... Two silhouettes were watching closely, it was the previous observers. "Roland, did you feel that?" The one that was called Roland nodded and replied. "Yes, Mary, That is no ordinary Killing intent." "How many battles did he have to go through, to have that kind of killing intent?" Mary spoke questioningly. Roland frowned as he replied: "Mary, you should know that I`m the one amongst the 8 Guardians of the Human race that had killed the most demons numbering at least more than a million, but one thing I can say to you is, I`m not even at the tip of that killing intent, and what''s worst is, he''s trying to hide it from other people, only directing it at that Kid, I`m also sure that, it was not his full intent." Hearing Roland''s reply, Mary is shocked and couldn''t think of any reply as the both of them looked at Zhihao. Chapter 163 Bully Roland looked at Mary and spoke. "Call Stephany and Earl Dennison, we need some help here." Mary nodded as she took out a green colored stone. "Earl, Steph, We need your help here, something came up." Earl Dennison was the first to respond and replied. "What kind of problem?" "Something like a 1st class disaster, or might just be the 5th class, we can''t tell anything yet, and we need some back up if we want to know which class it is." Earl Dennison immediately replied: "I`m going there now, Holy Magic Academy right?" "Yes, please make haste." "I`m going there too, I`ll create a portal now, I`m currently in the Border with Kazim, he''ll go with me too, in case something went wrong." Steph continued. "Yes, the more, the better." Mary then looked at Roland as she spoke. "We''ll need to better hide our auras further." Roland nodded as the both of them immediately contained their aura from leaking out. ... Within the classroom. Zhihao frowned as he snickered. "They decided to contain their Energy? Well Sadly, I can still detect them." Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded. Zhihao pondered for a bit as he touched his chin, then a woman entered the Class. "For the three new Students, I am Riza, I`m a 5th-Grade Magician, I`ll be teaching you with Water Elemental Magic." Riza looked at Zhihao and was amazed by how handsome he is, she then shook her head and continued. "We''ll start with the Basics... What''s that liquid on the floor?" "Maam, someone peed there, An upperclassman named Michael!" Riza frowned as she opened her palm and immediately controlled the liquid, throwing it to a nearby tree. Everyone was amazed as they clapped their hands. Riza then clapped to stop them then she continued. "Water Magic is an element that can both Heal, and Kill, it is a well versed Magic which can help a lot of people, and can also kill a lot, Water Magic can heal mild injuries, unlike the Light Magic which can heal fatal ones, but Water Magic has one advantage from a Light healing magic, and that is to remove poison." Everyone nodded in understanding as they kept writing notes. Riza then continued: "But, unless you are at the 6th or 7th-Grade Magician that focuses on water elements, you should not try it, as a very high focus is needed to handle removing poison from the body." Zhihao, Ying Mai, and Ma Dong then ignored the two from the roof as they started listening to the Professor''s lecture. After a while. Riza looked at them and spoke: "That''s the end of our class, see you the next day." "Yes!" Everyone packed their belonging preparing to leave. Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai and Ma Dong as he spoke. "There are five of them now, I guess they really want to trouble us, Don''t do anything unless I say it so." Ma Dong and Ying Mai immediately nodded as they continued to scan the five of them. Zhihao''s group immediately evaded all of the student''s attention as they reached their carriage, they then drove towards their Mansion. Halfway from their journey, Zhihao, Ying Mai, and Ma Dong smiled simultaneously as five figures appeared, surrounding the carriage, one of them then spoke. "Can we please have a chat amongst ourselves?" Ma Dong immediately rebuked. "Having a chat with weapons in your hands is a bad thing to do, you might scare us." Ma Dong jokingly teased the one that spoke. Then one of them spoke: "We can''t really put our weapons down if we aren''t sure of your origin, especially since you guys have a very strong power." Zhihao and Ying Mai then walked out of the Carriage as he looked at them and asked. "Excuse me, but what trouble did we do to have the attention of such great warriors and mages such as the five of you?" The five of them frowned as one took a step forward, a beautiful woman dressed in a Magician''s robe with a lot of armors in it, she then spoke. "Hello, I`m Stephany Alzie, We''d like to talk to you three about your powers, and what are you three intending to do in our Human Race." Zhihao looked at her as he bowed and replied. "I`m Zhihao, you are referring to Human Race like we three aren''t one, are you all that sure that we are not Human?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they then looked at Stephany. Stephany then sighed as she replied: "We have always been wandering all of the places of the Human race, and we haven''t seen anyone as powerful and handsome as you, so I could only guess that you are from the Demon Race." Zhihao shrugged his shoulder and replied. "Well, I`m definitely a Human, and so is the other two with me, we''re trying to take a Vacation in this Kingdom, and we don''t want to cause any trouble." Then a Man wearing a full body armor wielding two heavy shields walked forward and spoke. "I am the Earl of the North,Earl Dennison, We want to protect the Human race, no matter the price, even if it''s with our lives, so having a threat like you wandering about so suddenly, we are definitely alarmed." Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Yep, you are right, if someone wanders in a Kingdom of mine that has unknown power, I`d definitely be in high alert, But what I`m telling you is the truth, I am here to relax, no other intentions." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they still couldn''t relax as they got even more caution around him. Dennison then frowned as he asked: "How powerful are you then? We need to at the very least know that." Zhihao sighed as he looked at him and replied: "Well, I`m not really as powerful as any of you, but I`m at least a 6th-Grade Magician based on your standards." The five of them immediately realized simultaneously. ''Based on our standards? then where did he come from?'' Zhihao sighed and was about to speak, then a very bulky man walked forward and spoke. "I`m Roland, The Berserker''s Howler, I know that you are stronger than any of us, that I can be sure of, the amount of killing intent you released earlier is enough to testify that." Ying Mai and Ma Dong looked at Zhihao as they chuckled. Calling yourself a "Berserker''s Howler" in front of someone that has the "Berserker God''s blood flowing in his veins, such irony. Zhihao sighed as he spoke: "What do I need to do for all of your suspicions to vanish?" The five of them immediately spoke: "Prove it through your actions." Zhihao them smiled sadly and replied: "I would like to, but I just wish that none of this will ever come out of your mouths, would that be good? I want to live a really peaceful life together with my two friends." The five of them looked at each other and replied. "I`m Stephany Alzie, vow to not speak of what will happen today to anyone, and will only stay amongst us, the 8 Human Pillars." "Roland McArthur, Vow to not speak of anything that will happen today to anyone, other than us eight." "Mary Sanquez, vows the same." "Earl Dennison, Vows the same." "Kazim Shadowstorm, Vows the same." Zhihao frowned as he replied: "There are eight of you? nevermind, but just be sure that the other three will not speak of it, do you guys understand?" The five of them smiled at each other and simultaneously replied. "Of course." Zhihao smiled as he also asked: "Not even the King." Stephany walked backward as she replied: "We are not under any Kings, we are a sole Organization, helping to keep the peace with Humanity as long as we live," Zhihao nodded as he smiled. Roland then asked: "Who would you like to fight with?" Zhihao pondered for a while before he spoke. "I don''t like to bully some people who''s weak, so why not the five of you come at me?" The five of them frowned as they became enraged of what Zhihao had said, but just right after they felt that they were being belittled, a very scary Killing Intent pushed them all down to the ground, and a very big power suppressed them immediately. "This!.... what!... urgg!..." Zhihao then smiled at them and spoke: "Shall we begin, As a bonus, I`ll only use a single finger of mine." Chapter 164 Scheme Forest between The Sacred Moonlight Kingdom and Zhihao''s Mansion. Five silhouettes of people are on the ground while looking at a Young Man. The shock in their eyes can only be described as fear, The time that Zhihao had released a quarter of his killing intent towards them, the five veterans of war became like ants, looking at a Slaughtering God himself, adding the power that Zhihao had released, they were rendered powerless. Zhihao walked towards them as he tilted his head and spoke. "So, which one of you five should go first?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the five of them had cold sweats coming out of their body, they even forgot that It was just a spar, but who could blame them, faced with such godly might, they can''t help but tremble in fear. One of them tried to break out of it and with every ounce of his strength broke through from Zhihao''s intent, but being suppressed by Zhihao''s power, he''s still gritting his teeth and stood in front of the other four. "Get out all of you, I`ll try to stall for time!" The four of them gritted their teeth as they tried to fight too, releasing their powers out as they gathered mana to protect themselves, they then held their weapon and prepared to fight, but what they are feeling as they stood up was like they are carrying a very big mountain on their shoulders. Zhihao then picked up a pebble on the ground as he flicked it at the five of them. Seeing Zhihao''s action, they were bewildered, but when the pebble hit Dennison''s shield, he was blown a few hundred meters away. Dennison immediately stood up and charged back as the other four created a barrier to protect themselves. Zhihao tilted his head and asked. "Are you guys serious? We''re just sparring right?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were shocked and calmed down as they sighed, yes, they were just sparring, but due to the overwhelming power, they felt that their life is threatened and instinctively tried to fight it out to the death, but when Zhihao said that they were sparring, it made them remember how everything started. Ying Mai then approached Zhihao and spoke. "Master, the amount of power that you had released is enough to tear a normal person to death, and with the killing intent, they were most probably became overwhelmed." Zhihao touched his chin and spoke. "I only used 4% of my power, they can''t take it?" Ma Dong then looked at them and smiled, he then looked at Zhihao and spoke. "Master, they are humans that learned how to control Mana, they don''t have anything like a Physique to help protect themselves, they don''t have any cultivation method, that is what I have observed." Hearing the three of them spoke, they were shocked as they felt really powerless, I mean, seriously? 4% and we can''t even fight? How are you guys so strong! Zhihao then nodded as he spoke: "Should I try with 0.5% then? maybe they would be able to handle it?" Roland was about to speak and reject the offer as they had already proven that they only want a vacation if they really fight, who in the whole continent can contend against them. but before he could speak, he saw Ma Dong approaching Zhihao. Ma Dong immediately answered: "Master, maybe I should go and try it out, I`ll just use my physique and a Mana power." Zhihao nodded as he approved. "Go on, let me see what they can do." Ma Dong smiled at the five of them and spoke. "Hello everyone, I`m Ma Dong, I`m Zhihao''s first Disciple, My Master''s first subordinate, I won''t be using any power, only Mana, I hope you make do with me." If it was any other people, they would just sneer and become angry at someone belittling them, but for a Strong person''s disciple saying that they are just preparing to be bullied yet again. The Five of them firmed their stand as they prepared to fight Ma Dong, they then summoned Mana and enhanced their Armors, providing Elemental defense around them. Ma Dong then smiled at them as he asked. "Are you guys ready?" The Five of them nodded as they placed their stance. Ma Dong then smiled as he charged forward, like before, Dennison goes in front, while Roland behind him, then Kazim tried to go around within the forest to hide, while Stephany and Mary gathered Mana in their staff. Ma Dong smiled as he nodded, then he summoned Mana trying to imitate how they enhanced their armors, Ma Dong immediately tried it and what actually happened was that the Mana turned black as it then went towards his body, his normal uniform turned into a Black Armor within a few seconds, it looked like a Death Knight''s armor. Ma Dong frowned inside the Armor and spoke. "Is the Mana designed so the Armor would look like the one used by people here? That''s weird, I was trying to Copy Master''s set..." Zhihao chuckled and spoke. "Based on my understanding, Mana evolves around the people of the world, which would mean that it would turn out how the People here use it." Ma Dong nodded and looked at the five of them, he smiled as he charged forward. Zhihao and Ying Mai sat at the ground watching the fun. Zhihao then thought of something as he tried to use his Talent Appraisal, but before he could, someone spoke in his head. Amro sent a message towards Zhihao. "Hey Kid, do you see that guy holding two big shields? our Capabilities are quite in sync, appraise him for me, we''re about 80% compatible." Zhihao nodded and appraised Dennison. Name: Dennison Zelis Race: High Human Level: 298 Magical talent: 56/100 Swordsmanship talent: 12/100 Item Amplification: 100/100 Elemental attachment: Earth(Metal) Zhihao smiled as he let Amro see it. "Not that good if you talk about offensive power, but I guess if it''s in term of Defense, I can make him stronger and make him one of your Celestial General." Zhihao nodded and replied. "It will depend if he wants to or not though." Amro nodded as he spoke: "Yes, I don''t want to have a half-assed person to teach." Zhihao then proceeded to scan the other four. Name: Stephany Alzie Race: Human Level: 279 Magical talent: 84/100 Swordsmanship talent: 31/100 Item Amplification: 51/100 Elemental attachment: Fire Name: Roland McArthur Race: Human Level: 321 Magical talent: 24/100 Swordsmanship talent: 87/100 Item Amplification: 39/100 Elemental attachment: Nil Name: Mary Sanquez Race: Human Level: 289 Magical talent: 89/100 Swordsmanship talent: 2/100 Item Amplification: 77/100 Elemental attachment: Water Name: Kazim Shadowstorm Race: Human Level: 269 Magical talent: 43/100 Swordsmanship talent: 89/100 Item Amplification: 21/100 Elemental attachment: Dark Zhihao seeing their stats, he then remembered someone else and spoke. "They are the highest ranking humans in this continent, but, Urokai''s talent in swordsmanship seemed to surpass them." Amro then spoke to him: "Actually, those over 100 is the first Barrier that they needed to complete, and once they evolve, they will be much stronger than before, in terms of cultivation, that would be the same as us crossing from Heavenly Sky Realm, to Divine Realm." Hearing this, Zhihao then replied. "Doesn''t that mean, that they can also be trained to be a lot stronger?" Amro nodded, and a smile formed in the lips of the two, Amro and Zhihao formed a lot of plan in their head. Chapter 165 A Snail In the Middle of the Forest. Ma Dong sighed as he patted a few specks of dust away from his shoulder, he then looked at Zhihao and spoke. "Master, I''m done." Zhihao nodded as he looked at the five people laying on the ground while panting heavily, he sighed and spoke. "Who gave you the most trouble?" Ma Dong looked at them and replied: "Well, this one with the Shield is like a fly, he kept going in front of his teammates, trying to guard them and continuously receiving my attacks, Like I thought Master, my 4% is different from your 4%, I still have a long way to go." Zhihao nodded as he threw five pills towards their direction, all five of them immediately reacted as they caught those pills. Roland is the first one to react and asked: "These are?" "Just eat it, it''s definitely good." Hearing Zhihao''s words, the five of them looked at each other as they nodded, if Zhihao wanted to kill them, he wouldn''t need to resort to such tricks like poisoning them, hence, after a few more seconds, they placed the pill inside their mouth, They were immediately shocked, as the rock hard pill was dissolved inside their mouth like it was some sort of water. After a while, they felt all of their wounds healed so fast that they can actually see it, they then looked at Zhihao not knowing what to say, what kind of treasure is this. Zhihao casually smiled at their questioning face as he replied. "Don''t worry, I got a lot of those, it is not some precious pill." This reply made them shudder and thought. ''Something this divine is not precious? then what is!?'' Zhihao then looked at Dennison and spoke. "Do you want to follow me? I`ll train you to be someone as strong as them, although it would only be for protecting others, no offensive powers will be granted." Hearing Zhihao''s words, all of them including Ying Mai and Ma Dong looked at him in a bewildering and questioning manner, then Dennison became excited, then frowned the next second. The other four also looked at Dennison for his response, being a subordinate of such a powerful human would definitely be a big gain, even bigger than clearing a whole dungeon or more. Dennison was stuck at a decision whether to accept or not. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke: "Don''t worry, I`m not rushing you, and there is one more thing that you should know, you won''t be staying in this world after a few years." Hearing Zhihao''s words, the five of them looked at him in shock as they asked. "Are you a God?" Zhihao laughed as he responded: "I`m not a God yet." They immediately caught the word "yet" and was shocked further, a person can become a God!? And if you become a Subordinate of a God? You`ll be an Apostle? All of them wanted to protect the Human Race, but how can they protect it with little power. Zhihao then looked at them as he spoke: "Let''s go to my Mansion first, we''ll continue there." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they immediately nodded, but just right after that, their Transmission stone vibrated as someone is trying to reach them. They looked at Roland meaning for him to answer it, Roland picked up his stone and immediately received the voice. "The Demon Race are invading! There are four Elite Type Monsters, and a lot of Elite ones, We need back up here at the Southern border!!" Hearing the voice from the stone, Roland frowned as he looked at Zhihao and spoke. "Apologies, but we must go, for now, there is some sort of trouble that came up." Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Let me handle it then." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were bewildered, but the next thing they saw made them shut their thoughts. Zhihao gathered Mana in his hand, a suction force that they haven''t experienced before had happened in front of their eyes, it''s like Zhihao''s hands turned into a black hole, sucking all of the Mana in the surrounding. Zhihao then asked: "Where is that southern border?" The five of them point at Zhihao''s back. Zhihao nodded as he scanned the distance, after a few seconds, Zhihao smiled as he threw the Mana in his hands towards the Air, it then turned into flame spears, thousands of them had appeared! "Flame Spears..." Stephany was shocked beyond belief, the maximum flaming spears she could create were at least a hundred, but Zhihao casually did thousands of them without even breaking a sweat. "FLY!" After Zhihao shouted, the Flame spears immediately soared in the sky as if it had locked on its target, after a few seconds it then vanished from their sight. Roland tremblingly picked up the stone and contacted Baram. "How is the situation?" Baram shakingly replied: "This... I can''t explain... I... I don''t... I don''t understand... All of them... are dead..." Roland and the other four looked at Zhihao in fear, if Zhihao is really the enemy of the Human Race, then it is no enemy of theirs, it is just someone watching them and would have a play with them. Zhihao smiled at them as he replied: "Then, shall we go to my Mansion? We can discuss some matters there." The Five of them nodded in response. Zhihao smiled as he walked towards his carriage together with Ying Mai. Ma Dong then rode the Driver''s seat as he drove the Carriage forward, Mary and the rest looked at each other as they followed behind the carriage. Roland looked at the other four as he spoke in a lone tone. "If we have his support, we wouldn''t need to worry about the Demon Race, nor will we have to worry about the Human Race''s survival." Mary immediately frowned as she replied: "If that is what he''s intending to do, we won''t be having all of these problems with the Demon Race." The three of them nodded as they looked at the Carriage. Denisson the shook his head and spoke. "We still have the heroes that were summoned, if we can hold back until they become strong enough to confront the Demon King, we might stand a chance in the Future." Hearing Denisson''s words, they nodded as they prayed for it to happen sooner, then they heard a voice spoke. "You guys can just talk using your casual voices, I can hear them anyway." The five of them sighed as they nodded, then Stephany asked. "Are you going to help the Human Race fight against the Demon Race?" The other four looked at the Carriage expectantly. Zhihao smiled as he casually replied. "No." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they felt that reality is harder than they thought, then they heard him again. "But I`m staying here for at least 50 years, more or less." The five of them had a face of hope as they thought of something similarly, if Zhihao is staying here, no matter how many the Demon race sent, even the Demon King himself, they would just be brushed off like the Demon King is nothing, a glint of hope arises, if they could just help the Human Retreat further to the Main Kingdom, they will be safe as long as they are near Zhihao''s territory. Zhihao then spoke. "Dennison, What I can only promise, is for you to become someone that would be able to protect the ones you love and cherish, not including this World." Dennison was at first smiling at his words, but the last sentence caught him as he asked. "What do you mean by that Sir?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied. "The four Heroes that you guys are talking about, came from my World too, although they have not as much potential as I did, I have something of what you might call a cheat, but those four have hearts of gold, they will definitely do everything they can to help you guys." The only thought in their heads now is that "They came from the same world as this guy!" After a while more, they had finally arrived at Zhihao''s Mansion. The five of them was shocked, such great Mansion, since when was there such a Mansion before? The eight of them walked towards the guest room and sat. Zhihao then looked at the five of them as he spoke. "I`ll introduce myself first, I`m Zhong Zhihao." "I`m Ma Dong, Master''s first Direct Disciple." "I`m Ying Mai, Master''s Celestial General." Hearing these, they were shocked, even Ying Mai is a powerhouse? then they remembered something and looked at Dennison, he was offered the same position as Ying Mai, but what exactly is a Celestial General? Zhihao then continued: "My aim is to stop the chaos, the chaos that not any of you can imagine, well just think of it as, I need to fight Monsters, more than a million times stronger than me." After speaking, Zhihao looked at Dennison and continued. "A Celestial General is someone that I only command, leading the charge towards that chaos along my side, my Direct Disciples are people that will inherit my will if I fail, they will help me too, but I`ll immediately send them back when the challenge is too great." Ma Dong was about to speak, then he saw Zhihao looked at him while smiling, Ma Dong then shook his head as he clenched his fist. If it really is something that his Master can''t handle, he''ll reject the idea as he sends his juniors back and dies together with his Master. Zhihao then sighed seeing his resolution and spoke. "Don''t worry Ma Dong, as their Seniors, you will be with me Until the end." Ma Dong smiled as he nodded. Zhihao then spoke again. "Dennison, I will be needing your help if that time comes, I need my four Celestial Generals, although as of now, Only Ying Mai is with me, do you know that you are a genius if it comes to protecting and defending?" Zhihao then closed his eyes as a silhouette appeared beside him. Amro smiled at Dennison as he spoke: "I can''t have him talk to you since I will be the one making you stronger Kid, that is If you agree." With a smile, Amro chuckled as he continued: "I`m in your terms, you would call a God, the God of Protection." Seeing a snail talk, the five of them became extremely shocked! What kind of thing is this! then one of them couldn''t reject and spoke. "Ahh! A... A Snail!" Chapter 166 I Donst Like Them Zhihao''s Mansion, Guest Room. Seeing a Snail coming out of nowhere, Everyone was shocked, including Ying Mai and Ma Dong. Amro, hearing everyone''s words immediately became enraged, veins popped at his tiny head as he tried to keep it in. Amro finally calmed down as he spoke. "Yes, I`m a very mild, and well-tempered God, I won''t be offended by a group of mere Mortals calling me like that, I`m a kind God, A very, very Kind God indeed." The five of them immediately responded. "A Snail is really talking! HOW!?" "Its real! A Snail talked!" "I Thought it''s just my Imagination at first, What the heck." "Woah! Such a cute snail!" "Indeed, maybe it''s a type of a Morphed species." All of the five smiled as they talked in excitement, excluding Kazim who is always dark. Amro became enraged as his body started to morph, turning his body to a bigger size until he almost hit the ceiling while glaring at them. The five of them immediately shuddered at the big fluctuation of power coming out of Amro, they started to tremble as fear swept across their whole body, shaking endlessly as they looked at the Cute tiny black Snail turned into a Monstrous Black Tortoise. Amro with his glare striking at them as he spoke: "I had just said, that I`m a God, My name is Amro, The Deity of Protection, the Supreme and Almighty..." but before he could finish, someone cut his speech. Zhihao then finished the rest. "Snail." Amro nodded as he continued: "Yes, Almighty Snai..." Amro pointed at Zhihao, realizing that he had been tricked again as he spoke. "You kid, don''t think I can''t harm you!" "But you really can''t right?" "Well, yes, but... But...!" "See, you can''t, Hahahahaha" "I`m not saying that I couldn''t do anything to you, but you wouldn''t be able to do anything to me!" "Yes, of course, who would want to fight with a Snail anyway." "I`m no Snail!" "Then you are a slug with a shell." "I`m not even soft!" "Hahahaha, but you looked like one when you are small right?" The conversation made them calm down as they saw the two of them chatting equally. A God, talking to a Human like they are of the same position. Zhihao then looked at them as he spoke. "Do you guys, want to see, how strong of a Celestial General will be when they have the Celestial Beast as their partner?" Going with the Flow, everyone nodded as they looked at Zhihao. Zhihao casually smiled at Amro and spoke. "Partner, should we go and let them see a great scene?" Amro grinned as he replied. "Why not, let''s go out Partner." All of them then walked to the Backyard of the Mansion with the lead of Zhihao and Amro. After a while, they had finally arrived at a farther place to avoid any accidents happening to the Mansion. Zhihao then looked at Amro as the both of them nodded. Amro started to transform yet again as he became a 350 meter monster. Zhihao then looked at them as he asked. "Would you guys like to see how much I my strength increase when I`m using 100%?" All of them nodded their heads, even Ma Dong and Ying Mai. Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Amro, Let''s get it on." Amro sneered as he replied: "No biggy, shorty." Zhihao immediately released all of his aura as he focused everyone on his whole body, wind as strong as a mountain pushing downward blew out as it scattered through the whole surrounding. Roland, Mary, Kazim, Dennison, and Stephany were immediately blown away, they were extremely shocked, and further more witnessing what is currently happening as they were in the Air. Zhihao is floating in the Air! Then, out of nowhere, two silhouettes appeared behind them as they catched the five of them. Ma Dong caught Kazim, Dennison, and Roland, while Ying Mai catched Mary and Stephany. The five of them were shocked witnessing such a scene, not only is Zhihao flying, but also his two subordinates! How come these people are strong! But their surprise haven''t ended there as they were shadowed by something big in the sky! Ying Mai had summoned her Arc! All five of them were shocked. How come these people are hidden? but then they came to a sudden understanding. These people are going to fight a Grand Battle in the future, such Behemoths wouldn''t include themselves in such a tiny matter such as their war with the Demon Race. Dennison looked far more shocked than the rest as his thoughts only wondered in a single question. ''Such Grand People are willing to take him in? what do I have that others don''t?'' Ying Mai and Ma Dong soared to the Arc as they placed the five of them down. Ying Mai immediately let the Arc go closer into a safe distance. ... Zhihao looked at Amro as he spoke. "I`ll use my Heavenly Pierce, that''s my strongest offense." Amro snickered as he replied. "No problem Kid, you won''t damage me even for a bit." Hearing Amro''s words, Zhihao sighed, but then he immediately thought of something else, why not use Mana together with his Spiritual Energy? Zhihao smirked as he opened his palms, like a blackhole, every Mana in the surrounding covering an area of 40 Kilometers vanished. Amro frowned as a smile formed in his face and spoke. "Not bad Kid, now I don''t know if you won''t be able to damage me." Zhihao''s spiritual energy immediately got contained by the Mana as it started to merge into something like a humongous sword without any form but has a very sharp feeling to it. Zhihao smirked as he spoke: "Don''t die on me Snail." "Pfft, someone like you kid, I won''t suffer like that." Zhihao solemnly looked at the Energy in the sky as he spoke. "I`ll name it... Will of the Supreme One." Amro smiled as he knew what it meant, tears formed in his eyes that looked very heart warming even though he kind of looked scary now. Amro then spoke. "Give it here Kid!" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and spoke. "Take it Amro!" The "Will of the Supreme One" Immediately rushed forward as it Aimed at Amro. A heavenly supressing aura burst fort as the Sword moved, a overwheling power that can make people die just from getting near it. Ying Mai and Ma Dong''s heart clenched withnessing such power, if they were just a hundred meters near, they would''ve already died, such overwheling strength! The five, Roland, Mary, Stephany, Kazim, and Dennison couldn''t believe what they are seeing right now, Human can become as strong as that?! Amro formed a Barrier using 10% of his power in front of him as he tried to measure the skill''s power. The skill clashed with Amro''s barrier, After a while Amro smiled as he nodded in approval, after that, A Crack appeared in the Barrier. Amro then chuckled as he placed another Barrier with 20% of his power. After a while, the first Barrier broke as it continues to the second one. Zhihao felt excited as he became a stronger through the process of adding Mana in his power. Amro chuckled at Zhihao''s excitedness as he stepped aside. The sword energy then formed a crack as it blew past the 2nd Barrier, the Sword energy then immediately rushed out like a Bird that was caged, blowing past. The environment that was passed by the Sword Energy immediately turned into a wasteland as the overwhelming power left holes on the Mountains, and made a path of destruction at its wake. Zhihao noticed it and immediately controlled the Sword Energy to go up into the Sky. Zhihao tried to retrieve some of the Spiritual Energy, although the power of the Sword Energy was decreased to 1/10th of it''s original power, it would help decrease the cost of rejuvinating everything again. The Sword Energy then morphed as all the left over Spiritual Energy came back to Zhihao, the Mana that was left immediately exploded in the Sky, creating a very fascinating Firework. Ying Mai then let the Arc come closer to Zhihao as they spoke. "Master, your power has improved once again." "Master, it was such a good Idea of you pulling that power up, you might have destroyed half of this World''s Continent." Zhihao chuckled as he nodded and looked at Ying Mai as he spoke. "Ying Mai, you`ll also get your Celestial Beast as a partner in the Future." Zhihao knew that there are three others out there that Arthariaz want him to search, which means that his four Celestial Generals would have one each. Ying Mai shook her head strongly as she rejected. "Master, I don''t want to." Zhihao tilted his head and spoke: "Why?" "I don''t like Snails." "Pffft! Hahahaha, No, it won''t be a snail, yours will most likely be something else." "I`m not a Snail! I`m the Black Tortoise!" Amro strongly fought with their conversation as the four of them had a very strange but good Conversation. Roland, Stephany, Mary, Kazim, and Dennison is looking at the Damage that Zhihao had done to lands, if something like that was to hit their continent, in its full power, everyone would definitely die, and vanished from the whole World. Chapter 167 Decisions Within the Forest. After the four of them finished having a fun chat, They then headed back to the Mansion. Ying Mai let the Arc bring the five others faster to the Mansion. Just after a few seconds, they had finally arrived, Amro transformed into his Mini form and jumped at Zhihao''s shoulder as the 8 of them then entered inside. Zhihao sat at his chair as he immediately looked at Dennison and asked. "I`m not pressuring you, nor forcing you, as that is what I despise the most, I`ll just ask you this, you can either reject or accept, Would you like to be one of my Celestial Generals?" Roland and the other three looked at Dennison waiting for his response. Dennison then looked at Zhihao as he asked. "If I join you, what will happen to this World? Our World, My home World?" Zhihao smiled at his question as he nodded and replied. "It will be safe, but not by my Hands, It will be by the Heroes Hands, There might be casualties, but that is part of the Cycle, I wouldn''t ruin other''s cycle just to fulfill my selfish wish. It is the Heroes job to be the Heroes of this World, and that is not something I should intervene with." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ying Mai, Ma Dong, and Amro smiled as they nodded their head. Dennison looked at Zhihao walked walking closer towards him as he kneeled and spoke. "Master, Please let me be one of your Celestial Generals." Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "Amro, you`ll take it from here." Amro nodded as he jumped from Zhihao''s shoulder to Dennison''s and spoke. "Drip your blood into my shell, We shall seal the deal Kid, you`ll be my Partner from now on until you die." Hearing Amro''s words, Dennison immediately plucked a dagger in his back and pricked his finger, blood then flowed down as he pointed it at Amro''s shell. Immediately, Dennison''s armors and shield vanished, His white holy armor turned into crimson black as spikes grew from other parts of his armor, Dennison was shocked, then out of nowhere, a bad-ass helmet appeared in front of him, his shield then turned into something like a Golden Black shield. Dennison held the shield but then, it immediately wrapped around his arms, making the armor in his arm thicker, his armor changed to Holy Armor of knights to a Death Knight''s Armor. This shocked everyone witnessing this, even Zhihao. Amro chuckled as he spoke. "Your name is Stephany right? Try using your skill on him now." Stephany hesitated for a moment, but then released her staff as she casted. "Flame Spear! Go!" The Flame Spear dashed towards Dennison, Dennison immediately held his hands up as he tried to block, but before the Flame Spear hit him, the Flame spear vanished, then he can see flames circling in his hands. Amro chuckled as he spoke. "Throw it to Zhihao now." Dennison was shocked as he looked at Amro, then he heard a voice. "Just do it, let me check what he''s bragging about." Dennison nodded as he threw the flames towards Zhihao, The flames in his hands turned into a Giant tortoise, Aiming at Zhihao''s body. Zhihao chuckled as he dispersed the flame casually and spoke. "So this is your specialty? Full counter?" Amro chuckled as he nodded and replied: "Yep, but sadly, even in my Prime, I could only use it ten times a year, it doubles the power of the spell thrown to the wielder as it is channeled and converted to the wielder''s own power." Amro then looked at Dennison and spoke. "There are Three defensive skills that you can use as an offensive one, The one you had just used is Full Counter, the Other one is Half Counter, Half counter is where you catch the enemy''s attack and direct it in another Direction, then the last one, you`ll have to learn that when you at least reached Ying Mai''s current power." Dennison nodded as he looked at Amro and Zhihao as he spoke. "Thank you, Master, Teacher." Zhihao and Amro smiled casually as they nodded. Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong as he spoke. "Ma Dong, Register us on the Adventurer''s Guild, I`d like to have some fun while we''re here." Ma Dong immediately nodded as he replied. "Yes Master, I`ll go immediately." Zhihao then looked at Ying Mai as he spoke: "What would you like to do Ying Mai?" "Anything Master, as long as I`ll be with you." Zhihao sighed as he looked at the other four and asked: "What will you guys be doing?" The other four were still shocked by what had just happened earlier, they then looked at Zhihao in a confused manner. Zhihao chuckled as he continued. "You guys should rest for a while in my Mansion, free of charge." Hearing Zhihao''s voice again, they immediately woke up from their daze and replied. "This... Can we become stronger? Even if it''s just to protect the Human Race? our own power to protect our own Continent." Hearing them, Zhihao chuckled as he replied. "Of course you can, I was actually a normal human being a couple of years back." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they became really excited but then shook their head in a sudden realization. ''He''s taking a Vacation for 50 years in our World, how old is he? A couple of years back, How long was that? 100? 1,000? He looks so young, and the others around him too.'' A figure then appeared as he walked forward to Zhihao''s side. Ma Dong immediately reported. "Master, I`ve already registered our names to the Adventurer''s guild." Zhihao nodded as he asked. "What age did you write?" "18 Master." Zhihao nodded as he laid there comfortably Roland looked at Ma Dong as he asked Zhihao. "How old is Mister Ma Dong?" Ma Dong looked at Zhihao, Zhihao then nodded in confirmation. Ma Dong then replied to his question: "I`m 79 Years old." "79!" All five of them exclaimed in shock, Such a handsome fellow is actually at the age of 79 already! These factors made all of them feel envy towards Dennison, would he become like them in the future? Forever young? a Longer lasting life. These thoughts were especially effective against Mary, and Stephany, although they are still in their 30s, who wouldn''t wanna be young forever. Zhihao chuckled at them, not saying anything further. The rest of them immediately kneeled as they spoke. "Please let me be your subordinate!" "I can help you with household chores, I know my power is too little." "I can help you do all the things you`d want me to do, even if it''s me dying, but please let me live for a couple of hundred years before you send me to one of those deadly missions." "Me too please." Zhihao almost choked on his saliva as he coughed several times, he then looked at Ying Mai and Ma Dong as he spoke. "Would the two of you want some Direct Disciples?" Ying Mai and Ma Dong were about to reject, then when they looked at the four of them still kneeling, with cute puppy eyes, the both of them sighed as they nodded. "Yes!" "Yay! "I Made it!" "Mom must be proud of me in the heavens." Zhihao chuckled as these old dudes acted like some child in front of them, he then continued. "Choose which to take then." Ma Dong picked Roland and Kazim, while Ying Mai picked Stephany and Mary. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke to Ying Mai and Ma Dong. "You guys train them, we will go and do some adventures tomorrow." Chapter 168 AUTHORs CRISIS Sorry guys, I have no internet currently, be back on you in a while :| I`m getting 10KBPS download speed and 3mbps upload speed :| Such crisis for me :| I`m currently using my phone to update this one, Hope you can forgive me. There''s a very huge storm in the Philippines right now. and I`m not getting a good reception because of it. sorry. Chapter 169 Warmth Zhihao''s Mansion, Guest room. Zhihao looked at the five of them and asked. "What''s the level of power in this World? It would help if you`d include the Demon Race''s power too." Hearing his question, Roland talked immediately. "Lord, that is... from lowest to highest in a regular test would be 1st-grade to 10th-grade, and after that is the stronges... The titles... We 5 and another 3 of our members have, for example, is Mary, she''s titled as the strongest fire mage, which is The Sage of Fire, while Stephany is the Sage of Ice, ahem, Me as a graduate of the 10th-grade in swordsmanship..." Hearing his words, the other four looked at him in contempt. Zhihao nodded from the explanation as he waited. Seeing that Zhihao is waiting, Roland continued. "For the Demon Race, they have a really weird ranking so far as we know of, They have different titles, we''ve encountered a lot of them, but for a few times, they looked different from the ones we kept encountering." Zhihao frowned at the explanation as he asked: "What kind of difference?" Roland frowned as he wanted to explain, but then Stephany continued. "Lord, the difference is, the time where we fought a lot of them, they always stink, they can''t talk, and usually goes GRaaa! Roooo! Waaaa! but the ones we had encountered a fewer times were different, We tried to fight them, but every time we charge, they just frowned at us while they back away immediately." Hearing Stephany''s explanation, Zhihao frowned as he questions. "Have you ever thought, that those are not the ones you''ve been fighting? Maybe a 3rd race that''s trying to have a joined force in dealing with a common enemy?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were shocked and immediately went to contemplation. Mary then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "But! They didn''t even try to speak, they were just floating in the sky, we sometimes wait but they just kept flying towards us, but if that really was the case...Then, Haven''t we been too aggressive if that was the case?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "Well... if you were the one trying to form an alliance with another Race, but then got chased away, what do you think?" Thinking about it, the five of them felt really terrible. Zhihao has a theory, in one of those that he had read coming from the Earth''s novels he had bought before, Zhihao smiled then asked: "What are the characteristics of these "Demons" you are talking about?" Dennison then looked at Zhihao as he replied: "Lord, that is, they have Horns, some has big, some has small, I think the ones with small ones are the Females, while the ones with big horns are Male, they also have a tail and a pair of black wings." Zhihao''s thinking is slightly becoming more and more coming to life, he then nodded as he asked one more. "Then, what about the ones you are saying with weird noises?" "Lord, that is, some of them looked like them, but the difference is, some has horns while others do not." Mary immediately reported. Zhihao immediately stood up as he spoke. "Hahahaha, then there really is the 3rd race." The five of them was shocked, they then asked. "Lord, What do you mean by that?" Zhihao chuckled as he made a mysterious pause, holding his forehead with one hand, while the other in his hips, while he faced the other way and spoke mystically. "The ones you spoke that were flying were the real "Demon Race", but the one you guys are fighting is different, they are "Undead"! They make the dead come back to life! But these time, they are powerful, but without a brain, is what I think, I call them Zombies!" All of them, including Amro, Ying Mai, and Ma Dong tilted their head in a questioning manner as they all have the same thought in their head. ''Master/Lord/Boy... Do you have to pose like that? you look stupid...'' Just to keep his pride, all of them decided to keep it amongst themselves as they looked at each other and nodded. Zhihao chuckled as he returned back to his seat and spoke. "Now, we should sleep and go on an Adventure tomorrow! After my class is over!" "Yes!" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Now, we Sleep!" Zhihao walked towards his room full of confidence. Ying Mai sighed as she followed behind. Ma Dong coughed a little as he spoke. "You guys can go sleep in any room, there are a lot of vacant rooms here." Dennison immediately stopped Ma Dong as he asked. "Sir, Is the Lord always like that?" Ma Dong immediately glared at Dennison clenching his fist tightly. Dennison immediately got cold sweats while the other four felt similarly scared, then they heard Ma Dong continue. "Well... he was... like that too, when I first met him... I think it''s some kind of a hobby for Master, he likes to do that once in a while, but you`ll get used to it, in time..." Ma Dong immediately coughs as he went and walked to his room. The five of them looked at each other. Mary then spoke: "Did we make a right choice?" "I don''t really know, but I miss my friends..." Roland immediately looked at the sky outside as he spoke. Kazim and Stephany nodded in a sad manner as they sighed. Dennison just frowns as he coughed and then spoke. "Let''s go and search for our rooms." The other four nodded as they walked upstairs. ... Within Zhihao''s room. Zhihao sat on his chair as he pondered for something. Then a Ying Mai''s voice came. "Master, What''s wrong, is something bothering you?" Zhihao shook his head and replied: "It''s not of an importance, but out of all those that I had known, there wasn''t an Undead in an Isekai novel..." Ying Mai tilted her head and asked: "Ehsikai?" Zhihao chuckled as he shook his head and spoke. "Nothing, it''s just one of those stories I''ve recently known." Ying Mai nodded and laid in the bed. Zhihao pondered as he silently spoke. "Will Takeji''s group be okay?" Zhihao thought that the story would just be developed into one of those that he had read, but then, just now, he realized something, not everything is like those of with happy ending, Zhihao frowned as he then found something really terrible to compare with Takeji''s group. ''Didn''t I almost die from the Explosion that Bugal had created? I was only saved by Arthariaz at that time, who will save Takeji''s group if something bad happened?'' Ying Mai heard Zhihao''s words and spoke. "So Master, you are worried about those so-called Heroes group?" Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "What if, something horrible, something unexpected came out, is there a reason why I was sent here? Someone that should go to a higher realm instead of a really weak realm? is there something going on here? I need to know." But just right after speaking, Zhihao felt something as he opened his eyes. Ying Mai wrapped her warm smooth slender arms around Zhihao''s body as she closed her eyes and then spoke. "If there is something unexpected happen, Master will definitely solve it, if it is not something Master can solve, I`ll sacrifice my life so that Master can be at ease." Chapter 170 Gods Exists Not knowing what to do, Zhihao decided that he could just let it go. Seeing this, Ying Mai smiled as she embraced Zhihao tighter. After a while, Ying Mai separated from Zhihao as she walked towards the bed, and spoke. "Master, I`ll go and sleep first." Zhihao nodded, letting her be. After a few more hours, Zhihao decided to sleep too, but when he just came to bed, he heard a notification. *Ding!* =Hello Zhihao, This is Arthariaz, I`ve left these message to inform you that, I`ve made some things for you, you I''ve to spend 10% of my remaining power to do this, you can go back to Earth once every month for 24 hours, and it will start 2 days later, when the sun is at its Peak, I wish you some good years to come, I have some minor powers scattered throughout everywhere, please try to find it and it will immediately merge with your body, I don''t really know where they are since I''ve scattered it randomly, Goodluck with everything, I`ll come back, someday. Hearing this, Zhihao smiled as he closed his eyes and spoke. "Thanks." ... Morning came immediately. Zhihao and Ying Mai woke up as they took their bath separately, after a while, both of them got dressed as they went to the Guest room. Ma Dong and the other Five are already in there, waiting for them. Zhihao then spoke. "Let''s go to Class first." "Yes." Everyone nodded as they went to the Carriage. Ma Dong seeing that Zhihao and Ying Mai had already sat inside, drove the carriage to move. The other five decided to just walk beside the Carriage, not willing to ride together with their Master, they thought that it would be disrespectful of them. After a few minutes, when they are nearing the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom, the stones in the Five vibrated. They looked at Roland, meaning for Roland to answer it. "Yes, this is Roland, what''s the matter?" Roland sighed, not knowing how to tell them of what actually happened. "Where are you guys? We three had been searching for you all, what are you guys doing?" The one contacting them is furious, getting left out for a whole day. Roland scratched his head as he replied: "Uhh... do you want to meet us first?" "Okay, where are you guys?" "We will be arriving at the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom in a few minutes," Roland replied. "Okay, we''ll go there, I`ll leave a few of my Men here in the border, Machas, make a Teleportation formation, Roland, I`ll wait at you in the Gate." "Okay, well take your time." putting down the stone, he looked at the rest of his comrades as he spoke. "Well, you guys tell them, I`m not really good with words." The other four chuckled as they nodded. After a while, Zhihao''s group finally arrived at the Gates. Two Men and a Woman approached the Carriage, then they looked behind as they saw Roland and asked. "What are you guys doing? Why are you following someone in the carriage? We''re the strongest Human in the continent, are you guys lowering yourself to follow some noble now?" "Roland sighed as he looked at the other four, Mary then spoke. "Well, Margarette yeah, we are currently following someone really noble right now, and will do so forever." Mary and Margarette are always having a quarrel with every single minor detail. Margarette frowned as she looked at Dennison and spoke. "And you, what are you doing? didn''t you vow to protect the Peace of the Human Race? why are you serving a useless noble?" Hearing the Useless word, Ying Mai and Ma Dong frowned, but not only them, even the five, Roland, Dennison, Mary, Stephany and Kazim did the same. The five of them immediately brought out their weapons and spoke. "How dare you slander our Lord''s name?" Dennison glared at her, preparing to have a clash. "Margarette, don''t blame me for beating the crap out of you!" Mary smiled as she finally had a chance to fight it out with Margarette. "Don''t you even speak of anything Ill towards our Lord, or Injuries, and bruises would be the least of your problems" Kazim immediately warned, daggers within both of his hands. Roland only frowned, but he had already drawn his blades, ready to battle it out, so did Stephany. Margarette, Machas, and Luise were shocked at how they were behaving. Margarette immediately replied: "What happened to you guys? Why are you doing this? what did he offer you!?" Dennison looked at Margarette as he spoke: "We, had already vowed to serve the Young Noble, we look at his powers with acknowledgment, his Authority with respect, and his Kindness with grace, never ever insult our Lord." Hearing the events happening outside, Zhihao sighed as he spoke. "You guys, talk it out, don''t go around waving your Weapons around like it''s some toy." The five of them immediately hid their weapons as they replied. "Yes, Milord." Seeing their reaction, the other three were bewildered, Machas then asked. "Can you guys tell us what actually happened? to make you become so loyal to him?" The five of them then looked at the Carriage, then they heard a voice. "I permit you." The five of them nodded as they spoke. "Well, first seal everything around us so that no voice can be heard outside." Machas nodded as he cast a sound barrier around them, Roland, Kazim, Stephany, and Mary looked at the Carriage and spoke. "Master, you should go now, we''ll follow you afterward." Zhihao nodded as he signaled Ma Dong to go. When the Carriage had finally gone inside the Gates. Roland looked at Dennison as he spoke. "Den, go and show them what our Lord had given you." Dennison immediately nodded as he summoned his armor. Margarette, Machas, and Luise were equally shocked, as Margarette spoke. "You guys had sided with the Demon Race?!" The five of them chuckled as Kazim spoke. "Well, if it is based on power, he could very well be called a Demon, and will only be entitled as the Only Demon in the world, but he is quite the opposite of what you think." Machas frowned as he asked: "Then what is he?" Dennison smiled at them as he spoke with benevolence written in his face. "He is a Human, entering the Stage of the Gods." "Stage of the Gods? What do you mean?!" Margarette is being hysterical. witnessing such fearsome armor. Dennison chuckled as he spoke. "Roland, Stephany, Mary, Kazim can you guys do the honor?" The four of them nodded as they summoned their weapons, they then immediately gathered Mana in their weapons. Margarette, Machas, and Luise were shocked. Margarette immediately shouted. "Stop! Stop it! It will cause some..." But before she could finish, she was shocked, the amount of Mana they are gathering is abnormal, too abnormal! they are gathering Mana ten times faster than before. The four of them immediately shot the Power they had gathered to Dennison. Machas immediately shouted. "No! He will die!" But what happened the next moment made them even more shocked. The clouds of dust cleared out as they saw a silhouette standing, unharmed, without any scratches in his armor. They were speechless by the outcome. Roland then looked at Machas as he spoke. "Machas, I want you to make a Teleportation formation 500 miles south for us 8." Machas immediately made one as all of them entered. Roland chuckled as he led them towards the Top of the cliff. Machas and the other two are bewildered, what are they even doing here. After a while, they finally arrived at the top. The three of them opened their eyes wide in shock. Stephany nodded as she spoke. "That... Is that the power of our Lord, the one we serve, our only God." The Landscape is totally a mess, as mountains after another had holes in them, a very big and straight mass off land had been scraped out of the earth, as dead trees laid at the side, all destroyed by the aftermath Was Such destruction caused by a single person? Kazim then spoke. "If we didn''t reprimand you three earlier, the two by his side would''ve killed you on the spot, due to their teachings just yesterday, we''ve improved by leaps and bounds, but we are still no match to either of them, even if we helped save you. it might''ve been a single second, and you won''t even notice how you died." Roland added in. "Even if the eight of us fight him, we would not even scratch a skin out from any of the other two, us five fought one of them, the one driving the Carriage, he did not use his power, only 4% of his physique, but he overwhelmed us without a scratch in his body." Mary chuckled as she continued: "Margarette, you should thank us right? thank me now, or else you would''ve died earlier." Margarette trembled but she then shook her head and spoke. "Thank you all, for saving my life earlier." Mary giggled with joy seeing Margarette trembling. Machas and Luise looked at the destruction as they spoke. "So... Gods really do exists?" Chapter 171 Three Superstars Holy Magic Academy. Zhihao, Ying Mai, and Ma Dong went to their classroom, and as usual, they are being surrounded by their classmates, a lot of from other classes also roamed around, wanting to have a glance at the very least. Zhihao sighed, he wanted to keep a low-profile but he kept getting attention, now he just doesn''t really know what to do. Zhihao then closed his eyes as he browses for any interesting thing to see, then he saw some incredibly good looking Armors, Zhihao''s lips arched into a smile as he wants them. Ma Dong and Ying Mai noticed this, the smile of someone planning something really fun for him. The both of them shook their heads, not knowing what to do, but just then, they heard a commotion outside. Someone''s bringing a lot of people towards their classroom, shoving their way in. One of them shouted: "Zhihao! Come out! I''ve brought the Disciplinary Committee! Hand over yourself! You demon! You are a spy of the Demon Race planning behind our backs! You won''t escape Death!" Zhihao opened his eyes as he frowned and thought. ''Do I have to be bothered by something like this every day? I think I should just quit the Academy, it is too annoying, I''ve already learned everything here anyway, Adventuring sounds more fun.'' It was Michael, wanting some revenge from yesterday''s humiliation, the surrounding students were shocked at first as they started to chatter amongst themselves. "Eh, Michael? why is he here?" "Don''t you know? He was so scared of Zhihao yesterday, he was so scared that he ran away, leaving a pool of pee on the floor." "Really? That was hilarious, It would''ve been great if I actually saw it." "Shhh, can''t you see? that''s the Disciplinary Committee, they held power in enforcing the laws, and what''s worse, that''s his Uncle, Disciplinarian Monshige." "Ha, such bravery, bringing his uncle to get a revenge, what''s so good about him? I heard he is extremely handsome, but he''s just a so-so, and a wuss too!" "Hmmp! Bringing your Uncle to get revenge, such a weakling." "Yeah, just because his Uncle is a 6th Grade Magician, he wants to flaunt it around the world for people to see." Hearing this, both Michael and his Uncle frowned, but they really can''t say a word about this, so they just targetted Zhihao. Michael''s Uncle, Monshige walked forward until he reached Zhihao''s place and spoke. "You are Zhihao? Come with me to the Judgement Hall, The Academy''s President is there, we will judge you from what had happened yesterday." Ma Dong and Ying Mai were about to kill the bu;b monkey talking in front of them, but then, Zhihao stopped them as he spoke. "Okay, I`ll go." Monshige nodded as he led the way. Zhihao then spoke to the both of them. "Tell those other 8 not to cause any big commotion, just tell them that I want to keep a low-profile, nothing big, it will be over in a min or so." Ma Dong and Ying Mai immediately nodded, who could even hurt their Master in this World, as such they thought of something quite opposite... If Zhihao got annoyed and destroy this continent, then they would have to think of cleaning up his mess. Ying Mai and Ma Dong sighed as they both sat in the Chair, thinking of how to solve the problem. ... Zhihao then Arrived at the Judgement Hall, Monshige led him in the Center and left him there. There are a few people inside, around 18 of them. Zhihao looked at the Man in the middle, sitting atop the highest desk. "I am Marcus, the President of the Holy Magic Academy, I had received a plea, in which concerns the whole of the Human Race if it is something false, please forgive us for the rudeness, but these concerns us as a Whole, we could not just ignore these issue." Pausing for a bit, Marcus then looked at Zhihao and asked. "Are you a Demon Race''s spy?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "No." Marcus nodded as he continued: "But the one that pressed the issue says otherwise, he said that you used some sort of ''Demonic Technique'' on him, yesterday, what do you have to say about that?" Zhihao rolled his eyes and casually answered: "Well, I didn''t use any of such Demonic Technique that you are referring." Marcus frowned at Zhihao''s attitude, then continued: "Michael, over there, said that, you looked at him, and just after a few seconds, he witnessed a Demon''s silhouette appearing behind you, I was going to neglect this, but I heard rumours he left a pool of his own waste as he ran away,We asked a lot of your classmates and they had said they didn''t see anything, just you casually looking at Michael." Pausing for a bit, his expression then changed into a that of a stern one, seeking answers. "Did you use some sort of technique? not a Demonic Technique, but a technique that can make other people fear you?" Zhihao got annoyed as he glared at Marcus, it seems to him that they already made their decision. Zhihao was about to answer, but someone from outside reported. "President, 8 people are outside! they want to talk to you!" Marcus frown, he finally saw how Zhihao was about to show his real self, but someone interrupted him, Marcus angrily stared at the reporter as he released his power surged out as he bellowed. "Drive them away!" Marcus is an 8th-Grade Holy Magician, he has a bad past because of the Demon Race, and every time he heard it, he couldn''t stop but want to kill any Demons he faced. The one that reported trembled, but still insisted. "President, they are the 3 Great Magus and 5 Masters of the Human race!" The reporter bowed his head as he trembled in fear. Hearing the reporters words, Marcus trembled as his body shook a little, his expression immediately changed as he calmed down and spoke. "Let them in." The reporter immediately stood up as he nodded and went back outside. After a while, The eight of them walked inside, they then saw Zhihao, the usually calm person is not showing any expression, but they noticed his hands clenching. The eight of them immediately got cold sweats as they feared something, if they had just arrived a little later, they might not see the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom ever again. Marcus smiled at them as he spoke: "Great Masters, to who do I owe the honor of you all visiting my humble School?" Shivering, Roland immediately replied: "Ah, this, I heard my Nephew got into some sort of trouble." Marcus frowned as he asked: "Who''s your nephew?" Roland then looked at Zhihao as he shakingly spoke: "The... the one standing in the Middle, he''s my Nephew." Marcus'' eyes were immediately opened wide as he asked. "You didn''t have a Sister or Brother right Sword Master Roland? how come you got one?" Roland frowned as he shouted: "IT JUST HAPPENED!" Roland and the rest were shaking, extremely fearing of what Zhihao would do. "This... But... This..." Marcus trembled at Roland''s shout, who in the Whole Human race not know of Roland''s might? The Berserker''s Howler. Stephany looked at Zhihao as she tremblingly spoke. "This... I`m already here, to... to get my Niece''s Lover, that''s also him." Marcus was floored, all of the Human Race knew that only Mary, Machas, and Margarette has siblings, how come two of them immediately got one. Dennison almost flees from his fear, but then he walked forward as he spoke. "He''s very important to us, he''s our Friend''s son, we cherish his Talent the most, he''ll be the strongest person that the Human Race will rely on, he''s can already have a spar with us using half of our power at such a young age." Hearing this, even Marcus started to shake, if that''s true, they can just wish that Zhihao wouldn''t take revenge, or Zhihao might go berserk and destroy the Whole Academy right now. Their wish is true actually since Zhihao''s berserk would destroy their whole World if that happens. Marcus nodded as he spoke: "I`m sorry Masters, someone reported a false news, we''ll immediately call out a punishment for that person." The eight of them breathed a sigh of relief. Marcus immediately looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "Little friend, I apologize for the rudeness that you had suffered, I`ll definitely punish Michael." Zhihao rolled his eyes as he walked out, not saying anything, Zhihao then looked at Michael, and this time, Zhihao released 1/10th of his Killing intent directly at him. Michael saw this as he felt it again, the Death God''s glare this time! His mouth immediately foamed as he peed himself, and this time, there''s an included stinky odor coming out of his behind, he lost conscioesness as soon as it had happened. Such an innocent soul faced with Killing intent almost died. The other 8 and Marcus noticed it as cold sweat dripped out of their backs. Marcus''s only thought is ''That''s no f*cking Demonic Technique! That''s a killing intent you f*cking brat!" Zhihao then smiled at Stephany as he asked in a low and cold voice. "So... Who''s my lover again?" Stephany immediately shook as she replied: "Lord, it''s miss Ying Mai''s wish to be told, she wanted me to say it no matter what..." Zhihao then looked behind them as she saw Ma Dong and Ying Mai. Ying Mai''s face is as serious as ever but with a lot of blush on her face. Ma Dong is just laughing inside his head. The group immediately went out as Zhihao spoke. "Ma Dong, drop us out of this Academy, we already got what we need here." Ma Dong bowed as he answered: "Yes, Master." The news that Ying Mai is the Niece of the great Ice mage scattered throughout the whole Academy, but in less than a day, it would scatter through the whole Kingdom, and next is the whole Human Race. And that Roland''s nephew and Stephany''s niece are lovers are of the most outraged news, it spread through the whole Human Race immediately in the whole day! Thus, the Three Superstars were born. Chapter 172 My Very Own Leaving the Academy''s grounds. Zhihao and his group went towards the nearest Inn. Zhihao made all of them wear a mask to attract fewer attentions. Zhihao ordered two separate rooms, one for women to use, and another for them. When the 11 walked up, the other three, Machas, Margarette, and Luise spoke. "Lord, we also wish to serve you." The Three of them knelt as they bowed their head. Zhihao seeing the three of them kneeling sighed as he casually spoke. "Okay, okay, you may rise now." Just right after speaking, Zhihao opened up his palm as 9 Shiny boxes appeared, each of these boxes floated towards everyone except Zhihao and Dennison. Receiving this, Roland asked. "My Lord, this is?" "Go to the room, place it in your chest, It will be your new armors, I will teach you everything once we''ve gone on a mission." Zhihao spoke as he entered the room. "Yes, Lord." The Men followed Zhihao, while the Women followed Ying Mai. All of them then inserted the shining cube inside their chest. Waiting for something to happen, they prepared themselves, all of them frowned as Roland looked at Zhihao and asked. "Lord, is that it? nothing is... URG!" before Roland could finish his words, he felt something very painting surging out of his chest. Except for Ying Mai and Ma Dong, everyone else that had received the Cube started to clutch their chests with their hands, the intense pain made them tear up as they tried to fight the pain, powers poured into their body, uncontrollable power surged fort as they collapsed in the ground, trying to hold on as much as they could. Blood started to make it''s way out of their head, their eyes, nose, ears, and mouth started to have blood going out of it. Zhihao looked at them as he appraised their talent, he smiled at the continued growth of it but shook his head in the next moment, their talent is growing, but their capacity is not. Zhihao sighed as he sat on his chair and watched everything, observing if anyone would need any help. After a few seconds, Kazim and Machas fainted, but just right after that, they woke up from the extreme pain again. All of them gritted their teeth, waiting for it to end. Zhihao then heard a noise in the other room. "KYAAA!" "URGG!!" The women on Ying Mai started theirs. Zhihao frowned as he released his power to make a soundproof room, he then activated his Supreme Martial God''s Fortitude and Fortification. Roland and the others felt a surge of Aura that had entered their bodies, lessening the pain by two-fold, All of them, for the first time in their life, felt shame, they now realized that Zhihao is not torturing them, but instead, he is tempering them. Zhihao even felt that they needed an assistant, they wanted to follow him, yet they had doubted him instead. Roland immediately looked at Zhihao, gritting his teeth through the pain, he squeezed out a few words out of it. "Lord... We... Can... Handle... This...!!" Zhihao smiled at them as he nodded, he released his aura from the males but kept the auras around the females. Zhihao then spoke: "You can shout, don''t hold it in, it will be more painful, I`ve already placed an anti-sound-leaking barrier around us, it won''t be heard by others." Just right after he spoke. "GRAAAAAAA!" "KUK!!" "AAAAAAH!" All sorts of shouts were heard. Zhihao watched the process as he looked at them, in pain and agony, he then smiled as he remembered something. ''Was I like this when I evolved? Was I this miserable too that''s why Arthariaz took pity at me?'' Zhihao shook his head as he thought that he understands Arthariaz better than before. After a while, the shouts and screams decayed as they lay flat on the floor, all of them had already fainted. Zhihao looked at Dennison and Ma Dong as he spoke. "Clean their bodies, and dress them up, also clean up the floor." "YES!" The both of them immediately cleaned up their comrade as they let them lay in the bed one by one. After a few minutes, everything is finally done. Zhihao then looked at the two as he spoke. "Sleep now, we need to do something tomorrow." "Yes!" Zhihao looked outside the window as a smile formed in his face, he''s cropping a very wicked plan. ... The next day. Everyone woke up, with the aching of their whole body. They looked at Zhihao as they smiled and spoke. "Good morning Lord." Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "Make them all go here." "Yes!" Ma Dong replied as he went and knocked on the other room. After a while, Zhihao looked at them as he smiled and spoke. "Let''s all go outside." "Yes!" Everyone followed Zhihao to the forest outside the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom. Zhihao smiled at them as he spoke. "You will do what I tell you to do, Okay?" Everyone tilted their head as they nodded. Zhihao with his wicked smile started. "First, focus the Mana into your Heart, feel the Cube that''s inside it." Everyone nodded as they started doing it. Amro in Zhihao''s mind frowned and spoke. "Kid, what are you planning?" Zhihao replied in his mind and spoke. "Just watch. Kukuku..." Zhihao then looked at everyone as he spoke. "Good, now follow my Lead." "Yes!" Zhihao lifted his left hand to his waist, then lifted his right hand from his legs opening it wide until it riched the sky, he then lifted one of his legs as he placed down his right hand in his chest and crossed his left hand with it, he then smiled as he shouted. "Zhihao''s Ranger, Change!" All of them nodded as they tried to copy his move. All of them simultaneously shouted. "Zhihao''s Ranger! Change!" All of their bodies transmorphed as they were covered with different kind of colorful armors. Witnessing this, Zhihao snickered as he silently muttered. "My very own... My very own Sentai! hihihi..." Everyone was shocked as they looked at their armors, a smile formed in their lips, they felt very light! They then realized something, then Roland asked. "Lord, do we have to do that pose every time?" Zhihao returned to his calm as he coughed and replied in a dignified manner. "Of course, that will be your very own pose from now on, take it in as my Prideful knights." Hearing Zhihao''s words, the eight of them smiled as they nodded, the shame would be overcome in time, but the honor of being Zhihao''s knight, a future God''s knight is irreplaceable. "Yes!" Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "Okay, Let''s go and take a mission from the Adventurer''s Guild!" "Yes Lord/Master!!" Zhihao led his group as they returned to the Sacred Moonlight Kingdom, covered with their shining new powerful armors. Chapter 173 Adventurers Ranking Trial Zhihao''s group walked towards the gate. Such different kind of glamorous armor would definitely attract a lot of people''s attention, and that''s what actually happened. Zhihao tried to fall in line, but whenever he did, the people in front of him would immediately give way, one after another, and in just after a few moments, Zhihao''s group arrived in front of the Kingdom''s gate. All the surrounding people lining to enter the Kingdom silently watched as Zhihao''s group passed by them, not daring to breathe too loud. Zhihao left a gold coin for the eleven of them as they walked past the guards, the Guards made way instantly, no intention of further delaying such great figures. The people around them immediately broke the silence as they started a commotion. "Who were those people?" "I don''t know? Knights?" "Would the Empire make special armors for knights?" "Yeah, it looked extravagant, too expensive!" "Maybe they are the Legendary 8 Masters?" "Oh? Yeah! they might be the great 8 Masters, but there are 11 of them, can you even count?" "Stupid!" "Maybe some great group of S Grade Adventurers?" "Woah! Maybe!" "So we still have great adventurers other than the 8 Masters!" "I`m getting the feeling that our time getting suppressed by the Demon Race is almost done!" "Yeah!" ... Zhihao''s group immediately went straight to the Adventurer''s Guild. Entering the guild, a lot of people inside stared at Zhihao''s group in bewilderment. Zhihao walked up to the reception area and spoke. "We''d like to take a Mission." Hearing Zhihao''s words, the Adventurer''s inside laughed out loud, one of them then spoke. "Kid, this is not a place for noble people like you to mess around with." Hearing this, all 10 of Zhihao''s subordinate looked at the Man as they frowned. The Man smiled as he spoke: "What? Are you gonna bite me now? I`m a B Grade Adventurer, Shadow Blades of the King''s group, Salazar, what''s the rank of your group kids, How dare you look at me?" The Receptionist sighed as she intervened. "Stop it now Salazar, or I`ll have you stop receiving Missions for the next three months." Salazar smiled at the Receptionist as he spoke. "Maya, I was just joking, we just like to tease kids that think they can handle the World, such innocent Kids that don''t know the harsh reality of Demons. Hmmp! Noble Rich Kids, buying all sorts of things just so they can play." Ma Dong and the rest glared at Salazar this stop, Roland walked towards Salazar as he stopped when he''s in front of him. Salazar snickered as he spoke: "What? you think just because you have a good armor, you can be strong too?" Roland smiled as he reached out his hands, but before he could he heard someone speak. "Roland, get back." "Yes, my Lord." Zhihao nodded as he looked at the Receptionist and continued, "Miss, we''d like to get a Mission." Maya nodded as she replied: "I need to see your Adventurer''s badge to confirm." Zhihao looked at Ma Dong as he spoke. "We had only registered yesterday, We haven''t received it yet." The Receptionist nodded as she nodded and spoke. "Then, we have to test your abilities first, which do you think your abilities rank to?" Zhihao frowned as he asked. "Can you explain what Rank is to me first Miss?" "Hahaha, The Kid doesn''t even know what Rank is! HAhahahaha" Zhihao frowned as he ignored Salazar''s provoking words. Maya tilted her head as she pondered. ''Maybe they are from the suburbs?'' Maya then nodded her head as she explained. "Sir, the lowest tier would be F Ranked adventurers, F ranked Adventurers can..." Maya explained everything in details until the A Ranked adventurer. Zhihao nodded as he asked. "So, A ranked is the highest we can get as an adventurer?" Maya tilted her head again as she shook her head and replied. "No, there are S ranked and S+ Ranked adventurers, those are the ones that go beyond the Human Territory, with Missions of killing Monsters and Demon Races. they take the most dangerous missions out of everything." Zhihao nodded again as he asked: "Is that the Highest?" Maya tilted her head as she sighed and replied: "Well, there isn''t anyone that has surpassed those people, but there is always room for improvement." Zhihao nodded and was about to speak, but before he could, a big bear-like man walked out from the fourth floor of the Adventurer''s guild and spoke. "Oh! What pretty armors, to what do I owe the pleasure of such great nobles seeking our Adventurer''s Guild, Main branch." Maya looked at the Man as she smiled and spoke. "Guild Master Draz, they want to be tested, I`m just informing them of how ranks usually work. Draz smiled as he nodded, he looked at Zhihao''s group as he jumped out of the fourth floor and landed in Zhihao''s front. "Kids, let''s go to the back of the Adventurer''s guild, we''ll test your abilities there." Draz smiled as he walked out of the Adventurer''s guild, making a wide round tour to its Backyard. Zhihao nodded as he follows with his group, Salazar''s party and all of the people inside the Adventurer''s guild followed as they have nothing better to do. Salazar snickered as he laughed: "Well, this will be a good laugh to watch. hahaha." ... All of them arrived at the backyard of the Adventurer''s Guild. Draz then looked at Zhihao as he spoke. "This is the Hardest Metal in the world, It is called the Snow Dragon Iron, You won''t be able to melt it with normal flames, only a grade 8 or higher tiered Flame Magician can melt it, But you won''t be melting it, this would be a test of strength, if you`ll be able to scratch it, you`ll be considered a B grade Adventurer, and if you`ll be able to leave a huge mark on it, you`ll be a Grade A Adventurer, so which of you would like to go first?" Zhihao pondered for a bit as he asked. "So, if we want to be assessed as S grade or S+ Grade, what do we need to do?" Zhihao wants to go on an adventure far away from the Human''s Continent, and in order to do it with fun, he''ll need to be an S Grade adventurer. Salazar hearing this laughed with the other Adventurers, mocking Zhihao continuesly. Zhihao sighed as he just ignored them. Draz looked at Zhihao in shock as he laughed and replied. "Hahahaha! You are a very brave kid, well, The greatest Adventurer, Andrew an S+ Grade adventurer managed to take his sword halfway through the whole Block, That would mean, if you can achieve a quarter of that, you`ll be able to become an S grade adventurer." Draz then pulled up 11 pieces of Snow Dragon Iron and placed it on a mini steel table. Zhihao nodded as he looked at his team and spoke. "Who''s the one with the weakest Physical Abilities in our group?" Margarette, Mary, and Stephany sighed as they lifted up their hands and replied. "Lord, Us three would be the weakest in terms of physical abilities." Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "You three try it then." "Yes, Lord." Zhihao then looked at the others as he shook his head and spoke. "Nevermind, let us go all at it at once." All of them nodded as they walked in front of the Snow Dragon Irons. Draz then looked at them as he spoke: "You`ll need to use this Swords to have fairness, these swords are always the one used to measure strength." Zhihao nodded as all of them picked up the swords that is leaning on the wall. Zhihao looked at all of them as he spoke. "Go." All eleven of them slashed their swords simultaneously down to the Snow Dragon Iron. There was no sound of metals clashing, nor any sort of noises. Seeing all of these, Salazar looked at the Snow Dragon Iron as he frowned, then he saw all of them walking back and laughed. "HAHAHAHA! You could''ve at least hit the Iro..." But before he could finish speaking, The tables holding the Iron ore split into half, together with the Snow Dragon Ore, all 11 of them simultaneously. "Bang! Bang! Bang!" The Snow Dragon Iron finally hit the ground as it made a very loud noise. Everyone''s eyes opened wide, as a single thought popped up in their head. ''How the hell? What the f*ck had just happened?!'' Chapter 174 SSS Ranked Adventurers With the Group of Zhihao''s performance, everyone opened their eyes in shock, Everyone is feeling benevolence and awed by what Zhihao''s group had done, They thought that the Iron would never be able to be destroyed, but what actually happened in front of them is that, 11 of those hard metal was slashed into two on the same day, they were felt extreme benevolence to such power. But there''s someone with a different feeling, yes, he is shocked too, but he''s also feeling something else, anxiety, fear, and despair. Salazar waking up from his shock immediately tried to sneak away as a single thought flashed in his head. ''I need to escape, maybe go into another village, I`ll just marry there and live my life peacefully, yes peacefully, let''s not be arrogant anymore.'' But right after those thoughts finished, he heard a voice. "Salazar, where are you going?" It is one of his friends, Santiago, a member of his party. Salazar turned around as he saw everyone looking at him, even Zhihao''s group. He looked at Santiago as if he wanted to kill him on the spot, he regretted having stupid friends ever since. Salazar then stood up as he walked like a brave man towards Zhihao''s group. With a dignity of a man, Salazar looked at Zhihao as he proudly embossed his chest, inhaling a breath of air, he then shouted. Everyone looked at Salazar as they had remembered what had just happened before, they looked at Salazar as they nodded, he''s a real man, a man amongst men! they looked at him with acknowledgment, An A ranked Adventurer, will go face to face with a group of people, with every one of them had surpassed an S+ Adventurer''s physical strength, they were preparing to help their comrade, but what happened next is something out of their expectation. "PLEASE FORGIVE ME, LORD! I WAS TOO SHORT SIGHTED! I WAS RUDE TO YOU! IM REALLY SORRY LORD! PLEASE LET ME LEAVE! SPARE MY PITIFUL LIFE!" When they heard Salazar spoke, they were all immediately floored. What man of all men? This is just a scardy cat! they shook their head as they sighed. Zhihao and the rest of his group looked at Salazar as they tilted their head. Zhihao sighed as he replied: "Has anyone ever told him to stay?" All the 10 of them shook their head as they awkwardly looked at Salazar. Seeing this, Salazar was shocked at first, but he banged his head on the ground and spoke: "Can I really leave Lord?" Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Of course, nobody prevented you from leaving in the first place." Salazar smiled as he nodded repeatedly and spoke: "Thank you, Lord, thank you for your Magnanimous graciousness for forgiving me." Salazar''s face was full of smiles as he immediately stepped by and walked away, preparing to leave, repeatedly thinking. ''Ah! I guess I`m still lucky, getting to meet someone as magnanimous as that even though I was rude, I think I`ll quit becoming an Adventurer, I`ll go and... and live in a village, marry, and have a lot of children, I`ve already earned eno...'' But before he could finish his thoughts, Zhihao spoke. "Wait!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, Salazar stopped in his tracks, his whole body started to sweat as all sorts of thoughts floated inside his head. ''He changed his mind! No! He wasn''t planning on releasing me in the first place... He wanted to kill me since the get-go! He just needs the ranks to do so! Disrespecting someone of a higher ranking than you can cause punishment, but the one that had been offended can also make the punishment himself!'' Hearing this, everyone in the area looked at Salazar in pity. Zhihao looked at Salazar as he spoke: "I would wish it if what happened here, stays here, Do you understand? and if it was leaked, you know what will happen right?" Zhihao looked at everyone giving all of them a stern warning. Roland then approached Zhihao as he spoke. "Lord, we can''t really do that since people will just ask about us." Zhihao pondered for a bit as he nodded his head and continued. "Nevermind, just don''t start making some random rumors." "YES!" Everyone answered simultaneously. Salazar included, Salazar looked at Zhihao waiting for his following word. "You can go now." Hearing this, Salazar spoke of his thanks as he immediately ran out of the Guild, before Zhihao really changes his mind. Zhihao looked at Draz as he asked. "What''s the next trial?" Draz was speechless but woke up immediately as he spoke. "Next is to show your power, how you control the Mana around you." Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "Who has the weakest Mana control between us?" Kazim immediately lifted his hand and spoke. "My Lord, I`m the weakest amongst us, I`m a darkness type of Mana Magician, I use it to blend with the shadows." Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "Demonstrate." Kazim nodded as he gathered the power in his palm, "Extreme Shadow orb!" After shouting, about ten spheres floated in the Air, destroying everything around it, decaying the life too. Everyone was shocked, such powerful Mana control not aiming at anything but causing destruction around it, even the sages might not be able to control it. Zhihao nodded as he approved and spoke. "Next!" When Roland was about to walk forward. Draz intervened as he spoke: "Wait! Wait! No need! No need!" Draz imagined that if the weakest amongst them in controlling mana can already cause destruction, what of the rest? The Adventurer''s Guild might vanish from the history of the Human Race. Draz continued. "I already know all of your power''s level, even the 8 Masters wouldn''t be able to do so in their level, but, I`ll just bestow the Badge of the Conquerors to all of you, the SSS Ranked Adventurer''s rank." After speaking, Draz immediately went back to the Adventurer''s guild. Zhihao nodded as followed Draz inside together with his party. The rest of the Adventurers watching moved together as they walked back inside the Adventurer''s Guild. Everyone is excited as they followed Zhihao''s group, they will be able to see the birth of the strongest adventurers, the ones that shall bore witness to the start of a Legend. Going inside of the Adventurer''s Guild, Draz walked to the back office as he searched something. After a while, Draz walked out as he held four boxes covered with dust as he handed it to Zhihao. Zhihao seemed to be the leader of the group, he''s wearing a very bright armor so he couldn''t notice the difference with others, but his instincts are telling him that he''s the most powerful person amongst the 11 people. Zhihao opened the box, he saw some very old steel badges inside, there are four badges in the two box, but there''s only three on the other one. Draz then spoke. "Those badges are made out of Snow Dragon Iron, it is suppose to carry 12 badges, but one of those were taken by the first SSS grade adventurer a couple of thousands of years ago, that adventurer haven''t showed himself after he went into a dangerous mission, that''s the last time the Human Race had seen him, The Adventurer all around the Human Continent calls him a legend, he''s name is Raizel Kragusius, the Strongest Human in the Human Race." Draz paused as he looked at Zhihao and spoke. "I hope, that you guys won''t dissappear just right after you got the Badges, you are one of the Human Race''s final hope." Zhihao snickered as he nodded slightly. Draz looked at Zhihao as he spoke. "Congratulations on becoming the 2nd upto 12th SSS Adventurer, what should we call your party''s name?" Zhihao was about to speak, but then Ying Mai and Ma Dong stopped him as Ying Mai answered. "Just call us... The God''s Overseer." Draz nodded as he replied. "A Good name indeed, The God''s Overseer, the only SSS Ranked Adventurers." All of Zhihao''s party were glad as they nodded, but the party leader, Zhihao, is pouting. He couldn''t even say his part, he wanted the party to be known as the ''Mana Rangers'' why did Ying Mai even prevented her, that''s the second time she opposed Zhihao''s thoughts. Zhihao shook his head as he sighed and spoke. "Yes, Please register us as that." Draz nodded as he embedded the information on the Adventurer''s crystal. Chapter 175 Ranked SSS Mission Zhihao sighed as he couldn''t get the name of his Sentai group, everything went with the flow of his imagination, only the name wasn''t, he then thought of something as a fiery flame burned in his eyes. A smile arched in his lips as he looked at Draz and spoke. "We''d like to take a mission now." Draz nodded as checked all of the missions that only S ranked adventurers and above can get. After a while, Draz frowned as he took thirty pieces of papers out and handed it to Zhihao. He wanted to at least remove the last part, but seeing that these people were too powerful, they would get offended if he spoke that they might die, and would definitely pick it, but if he didn''t there might be a chance that they won''t take it. Zhihao nodded as he received the papers as he nodded and walked away. Draz was bewildered as he called out. "Wait! Are you taking all of that?" Zhihao looked at Draz as he replied. "I can''t?" Draz was speechless, but he shook his head as he replied. "You can, but there''s a mission there that has an unclassified dangerous level, We think that It might be a class SSS and above mission." Zhihao nodded as he replied. "Oh, if that''s the case, I`ll let my two strongest men handle it if the situation worsens, I need to train my 8 members, the more dangerous, the better, well bye bye, for now, I`ll be going." Draz was yet again speechless, didn''t he hear what he had just said? It might be an SSS ranked mission or above! It will be too dangerous! Zhihao took a step out as he looked behind again as he looked magnificently and spoke. "We, the God''s Overseer, Mana Rangers! Will be back with the complete missions, see you all later." Zhihao then continued to walk as he left with what he thought was an awesome impression. Everyone in the Adventurer''s guild froze, only Ying Mai and Ma Dong sighed as they followed behind Zhihao. Waking up from their daze, the other 8 then ran as they followed behind. Stephany looked at Ying Mai as she asked. "Is, Mana Ranger supposed to be our name?" Ying Mai looked at her as she nodded. All of them looked at each other as they bowed towards Ying Mai and Ma Dong as they spoke, in a very silent tone. "Thank you for saving us from..." They didn''t continue, but Ying Mai and Ma Dong nodded in understanding. ... Zhihao looked at the mission as they scanned them one by one, he then saw a very interesting mission and smiled. Zhihao then handed 4 papers as he spoke. "Stephany, Kazim, you`ll go with me, Ying Mai, and Ma Dong, you`ll both lead the other 6 as you complete these missions." Ying Mai and Ma Dong took the papers as they looked at it, not surprisingly, they couldn''t read the text, the both of them handed the papers to the other eight for them to read. Roland is with Ma Dong''s party, he received the paper and read it. "Exterminating a Manticore and a Hell''s spawn Cerberus?" Roland was shocked, these two things are too powerful, even the eight of them together will probably have a problem dealing with one of them, Roland realized something as he then shook his head as he realized something, it was before, now they are different, they might be able to make it. In Ying Mai''s party, she handed it to Dennison. "Killing an unknown Demon with a lot of skeleton soldiers in the middle of the continent, Destroying the Main lair of a Demonic Sea creatures at the edge of the Continent?" They were all shocked at first, these things are monsters that can put them to rest forever, but they also gained a lot of power as from Zhihao''s armors. But what they didn''t know is that what Zhihao gave them aren''t ordinary Armors, it is something that can help them with evolving their powers. Zhihao then smiled as walked further and spoke. "We shall meet here in a Month''s time, Ma Dong, Ying Mai, train them well." "Yes, Master." Stephany looked at Zhihao as she asked. "Master, what kind of Mission will we do?" She thought that their team is the safest, but also the most dangerous one, since it is Zhihao''s party they are in. Zhihao looked at Stephany as she handed 4 papers. Stephany took it as she read. "Going to the Demon Continent''s Main stronghold and kill report any important details to the Adventurer''s guild, Kill a bone dragon that''s terrorizing the Human Race, Kill a Leviathan in the Swamp of Darkness, Kill the Dragon Wolves near the Ports of th..." Stephany couldn''t continue, everything written in the mission is absurdly dangerous, a Bone dragon can easily kill them with its poison breath, but she didn''t know now, but it is still extremely dangerous! The others heard it as they prayed for their teammates and thought. ''We''re extremely lucky we were not picked, good luck to you, friends, It was a fun journey.'' Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "We''re going to catch some pets!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were stunned. ''You call a bone dragon as a pet?! I miss my old life already.'' ''I swear, we might die tomorrow.'' ''Will we even live to tell the tales...'' All sorts of thoughts came to their head, hearing Zhihao''s words. Zhihao then looked at them as he nodded and spoke. "We shall go now!" "Yes!" The three groups separated as they went to different directions. The people in the Adventurer''s guild heard the conversation. All of them looked at each other as they saw the SSS Ranked adventurers flew from the Sky! Draz was even more shocked, such powers can only come from great wind sages! How come all of them have it! But then, he spoke in a low tone. "To catch a bone dragon as a pet... how... unbelievable..." Everyone in the Adventurers guild heard it as they felt even more shaken, catching an unkillable beast?! Chapter 176 A Small Village Somewhere out of the Human Race''s continent. Zhihao led the other two towards the location of their Mission. Zhihao looked back as he saw Stephany and Kazim already getting exhausted, they weren''t even half the journey, but then he realized that they were just new to their power and couldn''t control it yet, what''s worst is that they haven''t filled their almost empty Mana storage. Zhihao scanned the two of them. -Name: Stephany Race: High Human Level: 340 Magical talent: 1,234/9,999 Swordsmanship talent: 1,284/5,000 Item Amplification: 100/4,500 Elemental attachment: Flame -Name: Kazim Race: High Human Level: 340 Magical talent: 450/5,000 Swordsmanship talent: 1,840/9,999 Item Amplification: 100/4,500 Elemental attachment: Darkness Zhihao looked at the Race as he saw something similar to Dennison, a High Human, their capacity had increased by a lot, but seeing their status, Zhihao frowned, they couldn''t be his Celestial Generals, but if he teaches them to be versatile in both Magic and Swords, it will be great, a Jack of all trades, Master of none. Zhihao smiled as he figured it out, figured what he wanted to do with the other seven. He then contacted Ying Mai and Ma Dong to have a training course for each of the other seven excluding Dennison that would go with pure defensive capabilities from Amro''s teaching. The Godly Snail... Tortoise, Amro will be teaching Dennison through the path of ultimate defense. Zhihao then remembered something, as he let his Spiritual Energy wonder the whole Continent of the Magic world. When his Spirit sense reached the demon Continent, Zhihao smiled as he spoke in a low tone. "So... My guess was right." Zhihao then took back his Spiritual Energy as he looked at Stephany and Kazim, he immediately gathered a lot of mana as it formed into something like a cloud, lifting all three of them up. Stephany and Kazim were both shocked, Zhihao casually made something that can fly and what''s more shocking, Zhihao made something as big as a mountain! Zhihao let the cloud looking arc move forward as he continuously supplied it with the Mana he has gathered. He then looked at Stephany and Kazim as he handed two things. Zhihao handed Stephany a Sword, with a grade level of Divine rarity, and Kazim with a Staff that has the same quality. Both of them were shocked as Stephany asked. "My Lord, have you confused our skills? I`m the one that uses a staff." Kazim nodded as he is also wondering. Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Both of you, will start to practice something that you are not good at, the both of you will start becoming strong, in both Sword and Magic." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were both stunned, but suddenly, realizing something as they both thought. ''If we''re already strong with just our own way, how strong can we become if we actually have two class? A sword and Magic, a Magic Swordsman/Magic Assassin?'' The both of them smiled as they looked at Zhihao. Seeing this, Zhihao nodded as he walked at the front of his Arc and made it go faster, but suddenly, Zhihao noticed something as he stopped the Arc as he looked at the Forest nearby. Zhihao scanned the forest, after a while, Zhihao smiled as he made his Arc land nearby. Zhihao jumped down the arc as he walked forward what he had sensed, seeing this, Stephany and Kazim looked at each other as they nodded, the two of them flew and followed Zhihao''s path. After a while of walking, Zhihao found a couple of people fighting something. Zhihao fastened his face as he rushed towards the direction. The three of them saw a group of people fighting the Demon race, no, the Undead. Zhihao immediately gathered Mana around him as he observed the situation. The Humans fighting has a great eloquent way of fighting, they fight with grace, momentum, and great balance. Zhihao then threw some fire arrows at the undead, immediately piercing and burning the Undead to ashes. The Beings fighting the Undead thought that their Magician had helped them, but their Mages never uses fire magic, nor anything else except Wind and Nature Magic. They then looked at the direction where it was thrown, when they saw Zhihao, Kazim, and Stephany, they immediately hid their faces as they wore a mask and prepared to fight. Zhihao tilted his head, then he saw a village a couple of meters away, but the village is build up in the trees. Zhihao looked at them as he spoke. "I`m only trying to help, I mean no harm." The one that seemed to be wearing something with a lot of decoration walked up as he spoke. "Then what are you doing here?" Stephany and Kazim both frowned as they couldn''t understand what the other guy had just spoken. Zhihao smiled at them as he spoke. "We''re just passing by, but we noticed that you guys are having a trouble, so I only lent a hand." The one that spoke was bewildered as he asked. "You can speak our language?" Zhihao smiled as he replied. "Is that bad?" The one with a lot of decoration in the Armor frowned and replied. "How do you know our language?" "I just know how to." The figure immediately frowned, all of them immediately prepared to engage in battle. Zhihao shook his head as he snickered and immediately teleported in front of the figure. They were all shocked at how fast Zhihao could move. Zhihao smirked as he slowly removed the Mask of the Man he''s in front of. "If I am here to harm any of you, I could do it with..." Zhihao paused as he saw what''s beneath the Mask, a very beautiful Woman was underneath, fare jade white skin, it is so silky smooth as f*ck. Like a bewitched person, Zhihao''s hand immediately landed on her face''s skin, gently caressing it, afraid of damaging her. The one in front of Zhihao was shocked, seeing Zhihao''s handsome face and power, she was speechless, but as soon as Zhihao''s warm hands touched her face, she immediately woke up as she prepared to defend herself, ready to die while fighting. With her sudden movement, the hood she''s wearing fell of as everyone saw her feature. Yellow-green hair, beautiful eyes, plump pinkish sexy lips, and pointed ears. Wait! Pointed ears! Zhihao immediately exclaimed. "ELVES?!" Chapter 177 A Hin Within the forest. Zhihao looked at the elven woman that''s prepared to die while defending her home. He sighed as he shook his head, he was enchanted for a bit, and actually made a move on her. Anyone would freak out if that actually happened to them, even he would. Zhihao pondered, thinking of a way to calm everyone. "I`m not here to harm any of you, and I`m sorry for touching your face, I was... I was just enchanted by your beauty for a second and lost my composure." Hearing Zhihao''s words, the elves still tried to create a distance from him. Not knowing what to do now, he then bowed as he spoke. "I`ll leave, I`m sorry for the inconvenience that I had caused you all." After speaking, Zhihao immediately left. Stephany and Kazim followed his lead as they walked behind him. Stephany looked behind as she spoke: "I don''t know what made you all become so alert, but we really mean you no harm." Although Stephany couldn''t understand a single word they had said, she still knew that they don''t trust any of the three of them. Zhihao immediately summoned his Arch as he flew up in it while looking at the Village, he then spoke. "My name is Zhihao if you`d need any help with anything, just call for me." After speaking, Zhihao continued his journey towards the Dragon''s nest. Seeing Zhihao''s arc moving away, all the elves sighed a breath of relief, the one commanding them though, felt a little weird, she thought that Humans and Undead are purely evil creatures, trying to cause harm to their race. If Zhihao wanted to cause them any harm, they would actually all die, remembering the power he had shown before. On their way, Zhihao saw a lot of similar villages, they seemed to be around the big mountains, so long as there''s a giant three, there would be villages for it. Zhihao sighed as he looked forward. After a while, Zhihao then noticed another Skirmish between the Elves and the Undead, he then threw some flame spears to aid the elves as he continued his journey. Zhihao''s group immediately arrived at a desolate place, where there are no trees, neither plants growing, only the dead soils and trees are there, and some bones of some unknown species. He then saw a group of skeletons in armor, riding a skeletal horse, Zhihao immediately noticed that they seemed to be as powerful as Roland before they got their buffs up. Zhihao smiled as he thought of something and spoke. "Stephany, Kazim, go and take those skeletal soldiers, they were as strong as you all before you got my help." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were shocked, such skeletons are as strong as them? there''s about a thousand or more of them in here, if they actually attacked, what will happen to the Human Race if Zhihao wasn''t here. The both of them immediately nodded as they descended from the Arc. Zhihao then followed up. "Stephany, use sword, Kazim, use magic." The both of them nodded as they replied. "Yes, Lord!" The both of them descended at the ground as they looked at the Skeleton Cavalry. The Skeleton Cavalry noticed their arrival as they glared at them and immediately charged forward. Stephany didn''t know any sorts of swordsmanship but seeing her comrades fight for years, she tried to copy those moves, especially Luise''s. Kazim, on the other hand, had a more difficult, he focuses on the assassination, as such he''s having a hard time in a frontal fight. Kazim is thinking of what kind of magic he could do with his Dark attributes, a sudden idea emerged in his head as he smiled "Decaying Orb, Orbital Sphere!" Orbital Sphere is a black round dark Mana, trying to suck the enemies in it, while the Decaying orb slowly tries to destroy their armors, leaving great scratches on their bones too. Seeing their improvements, Zhihao smiled, he then sat as he watched how the things are going, a thought then flashed in his head. He remembered Takeji''s group, the one that''s meant to finish this World''s problems. Based on what he knows, Takeji and his group will fail the conquest if this continued, there''s something really abnormal happening here, like a lot of loopholes to be exploited. How come there are ordinary monsters, lurking about everywhere, with almost the same strength as the strongest warriors in the Human Continent, and why is the Demon Race fighting the Undead too. The Undead are clashing with about 85% of the Undead''s strongest group, while only 15% goes to the Human Continent, halting the Human Continent''s growth in power. Something feels really eerie about this world, something is happening behind the scene! Something or someone is intervening in what should be happening in this world. Zhihao then immediately thought of something as he spoke. "The plot of the Titan Realms? Is it beginning?" Based on what Arthariaz had said, Zhihao thought of something. "What if... they will start through the lower realms until the upper realms?" Thinking about this, Zhihao shuddered, the God''s realm will be hit behind by the forces that the Titan''s realm will amass, but thinking about it, Zhihao thought that it will still take more than a hundred years since these creatures are still in infancy. Zhihao looked at the sky as he spoke. "Arthariaz, I can''t be of any help to the God''s Realm, but I`ll try to decrease their luggage!" Zhihao will travel across all the realms to destroy of what he thought is the Titan Realm''s scheme, if he goes to another world and it has the same thing happening, it will prove that his guess is right. Chapter 178 Killing a Weakened Enemy Within the Sky, above the desolate lands. Zhihao who''s observing Kazim and Stephany''s improvement is casually sitting in the Arc. Zhihao remembered the elf he had just met, such pure innocent beautiful face, and bouncy mount... and great figure. Zhihao sighed as he watched Stephany and Kazim''s fight, the memory he''s remembering is not very fit to the struggle of two individuals fighting a group of Undead Skeleton Warriors. Kazim and Stephany, the both of them are having a tough time right now, although they had killed more than 500 of the enemies, there are still thousands of them coming. They kept glancing in Zhihao''s direction as they were waiting for his help, but seeing his stern face, they gritted their teeth as they thought. ''We''re not doing enough, our effort is still not enough to please our Lord.'' The both of them pushed themselves to the limit of their abilities. Stephany, for the first time in her whole life, bled fresh blood. The rusting sword that caused the damage is imbued with dark power, it is also starting to eat both of Kazim''s and Stephany''s flesh. Zhihao woke up from his daze as he saw their predicament, he pondered for a bit as he spoke. "What would a cornered beast do if he has one leg in the grave?" Kazim and Stephany heard his words as they realized something, the both of them immediately smiled as they went wild. Kazim immediately blended with the shadows as he attacked with his weapon, together with his Magical power. Stephany finally lost it as her face changed from a cornered puppy into a raging lion, she immediately gathered a lot of Mana in her sword as it transformed into flame as hot as a scorching sun. Wielding the sword endlessly, untargeted as she aimed anywhere she can brandish her sword. Seeing these scene, Zhihao sighed as he nodded. Then out of nowhere, Zhihao felt something ominous, he looked at the black mountain in the distance. Immediately, Zhihao summoned thousands of Flame Spears at the air as he struck the Skeleton Knights. Stephany and Kazim woke up from their berserk as they saw the scene of the utter massacre, something that they were having so much trouble was dealt by with complete ease. Zhihao looked at them as he spoke. "Get up here." "Yes, Lord!" Kazim and Stephany immediately went back to Zhihao''s floating cloud. Zhihao immediately threw some minor recovering pill to the two of them as he continued watching the black mountain. Zhihao sent his spirit sense as he tried to check what''s happening when his Spirit Sense had arrived, Zhihao smirked as he looked at Stephany and Kazim. "You guys want to see how I fight with Swords?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the two of them smiled as they continuously nodded and replied. "Yes Lord, it will be our pleasure." Zhihao smiled as he floated up in the sky, waiting for the creature to come out. After a while, the black mountain exploded. Something went out of it as a silhouette of something huge came out. Zhihao looked at the creature as he spoke. "So, you are the one ruining the cycle of this World?" Hearing Zhihao''s word, someone replied. "How dare you, interrupt our Plans, you`ll die together with your love ones." The silhouette descended from the sky as a huge Bone Dragon appeared, but Zhihao is not looking at the Bone Dragon, instead, someone who''s standing at its head. Zhihao sneakered as he gathered Mana in his hands. Two blades appeared as Elemental powers of Fire, Earth, Water, and Wind gathered around as it started to merged into one. Zhihao''s mouth immediately bled, he''s trying to copy what his children had done. although it is colored black, it is not the power of Darkness, instead, it is the power of combined elements. The amount of Mana that Zhihao had to consume was so great that his body couldn''t take it, his physical body is entering its limit even before the battle starts. The one on top of the Dragon''s head saw the power as he shivered, feeling the concentrated mana around the blades. "Let''s get started!" Zhihao spoke as he released his Spiritual Power and immediately made the Bone Dragon slammed to the ground. The Man on its head immediately flew as it prepared to fight Zhihao. The both of them clashed, The Man summoned some sort of power, it has a single color, grey. He tried to slice Zhihao''s head as it continued lesser defense, but Zhihao already evaded as he cut the hand holding the sword. "Arggg!" The Man gritted his teeth as he glared at Zhihao. Zhihao smiled as he casually spoke. "So... You are, a Titan? You have the same power as them, and you also have a God Realm''s power." The man glared at Zhihao as he rebuked. "It is no God Realm''s power, It is the Titan Realm''s power! The God Realm will vanish with our King as our ruler!" Zhihao smiled as he continued. "But... your power seemed to have been weaken drastically, not even in the Divine Realm, so how can you do it?" The Man widened his eyes as he heard Zhihao''s words. Zhihao snickered as he laughed. "I guess, you guys are only targetting the lower realms, it must have meant that, due to you guys forcing your way out of the God''s Realm, you sacrificed a lot of power in order to escape, and you are trying to regain your strength through the lower realms?" The Man hearing Zhihao''s words immediately charged forward, Zhihao knows too much, it might ruin their great grand plan. Zhihao chuckled as he threw one of his sword towards the Man. It immediately went straight towards the Man''s body, as it started to get destroyed. Within the Man''s eyes, Zhihao could only see death, no other emotions attached, just basically glad about something. Zhihao felt a very bad feeling about this as he spoke. "How many lower realms had they invaded?" Zhihao, thinking like this, felt extremely scared, if these people, who rivals the Gods recover their power, it will most likely be that the God''s Realm will be surrounded in two sides, with an additional bonus of the creatures that they had created. Zhihao wanted to have a talk with Amro, but seeing how weak the Titan he had faced, they might still have a thousand more years, or at the very least, hundred of more years. Zhihao looked at Stephany and Kazim as he spoke. "We''ll go and kill some more of these minions, brace yourself, you`ll do it, all of you need to be so much stronger than before, at least as strong as the current Ying Mai, and Ma Dong." Hearing Zhihao''s serious words, Stephany and Kazim felt extremely scared, if the Chaos that Zhihao had talked about when they met is actually happening, they really need to become stronger. And if everything that is happening to their World is also happening in other Worlds, then they don''t know what will happen. Chapter 179 Alien Zhihao, after the fight immediately flew to the sky as high as he can, he can see the whole continent, seeing a lot of places that became either desolate or a wasteland was full of undead creatures. Zhihao sighed as he doesn''t know what to do, would he rush things? or would he still take things step by step? He knew that each can bore great troubles in the future, especially if he rushes things. As Zhihao slumped into further thoughts, the Bone Dragon woke up as it glared at Zhihao. Zhihao felt the glare as he looked back, immediately rushing down. He looked at the Bone Dragon as he spoke. "It is either you die, or follow me, which is it?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the Bone Dragon immediately became enraged as it flew to the sky and charged at him. Zhihao sighed as he gathered mana around him, it immediately turned into something like a water that''s burning, like how Baichen''s, his son''s power did. The Bone Dragon still enraged rushed towards the bluish fire, not thinking of anything, but what had happened next is that the Bone Dragon disintegrated, all the parts that had rushed towards the Blue Flame vanished without any trace, the lower part of the Bone Dragon, the tail, which wasn''t carried by the momentum, fell from the sky as it landed at the ground. Kazim and Stephany shuddered, such power, if those fires actually hit a person, they would die immediately. Zhihao remembered something as he exclaimed. "Ah! Sorry, I got too carried away by my fight, I forgot to demonstrate my Swordsmanship." Zhihao immediately landed on the ground as he closed his eyes. Both Stephany and Kazim stared at each other as they looked at Zhihao. After a while, Zhihao opened his eyes as he spoke. "Sword Dance." When Zhihao had spoken, both Stephany and Kazim focused their attention on Zhihao''s every movement. Zhihao started to dance on the ground, but this time, he filled his sword with Mana as he brandished his sword around, making a wave of natural Energy. Zhihao danced gracefully as he started to release sword waves one after another, the Sword''s waves hit the grounds as something weird happened. The Desolate, dry and dark lands started to have some life, everything that Zhihao had hit is starting to become alive again, the soils started to compress as all the cracks that were hit, slowly regenerates itself. Stephany and Kazim''s eyes widened in shock as a thought floated in their head. "The Gods can bring the Death of nature come back to life!" On the other hand, Zhihao himself felt something different. He then tried using his Spiritual Energy, combining it with Mana, converting everything he has into Natural Energy. Immediately, signs of life, such as grasses started to grow. moss without water is surrounding where Zhihao''s sword dance is taking place. After a few more hours, Zhihao had created a lot of life in a whole big area. The what seemed to be a desolate land has a quarter of it grow with greeneries. Zhihao, on exhaustion, pants while he nodded at the sight, he then looked around as he thought of something that still needs to be done, he then spoke. "Creating life is more exhausting than destroying it, but there''s still something missing." Zhihao had created natural life, but he couldn''t give birth to other life forms, such as insects. there''s something missing. Zhihao then jumped through the sky as he flew up. Using every Spiritual Energy within his body, he summoned it out together with Mana, he immediately started to make it into shape. After a while, Zhihao threw the energy at the sky. The Dark Clouds immediately vanished as it turned into white ones, and out of nowhere, Rains poured down from the heavens, blessing the Lands that Zhihao had created. The Sun''s life hit Zhihao''s figure, making him look like a God. Stephany and Kazim, don''t know what''s happening, but they couldn''t help but kneel on the ground. The both of them smiled as they bowed their heads while kneeling, feeling the grace of their Lord, someone who''s stepping into Godhood. Zhihao slowly descended from the Heavens as he landed on the Arc. Stephany and Kazim heard his arrival, but as soon as they lifted up their head, they saw a bloodied Zhihao, out of his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears, there is blood gushing out, even the pores in his whole body has a few drops of blood leaking out of it. Zhihao smiled as he collapsed in the Arc after Zhihao had collapsed, the Arc itself immediately got dissolved. Stephany and Kazim immediately rushed to catch Zhihao''s falling body. After catching Zhihao''s fall, the both of them sighed with relief, but they immediately want to go out, they need to tend Zhihao''s injuries. Right after that, they saw thousands of people approaching them, the Both of them prepared to fight, but seeing who they were, the both of them relaxed. ... Somewhere. Zhihao opened his eyes slowly as he felt his body aching all over. He''s inside a house that''s fully made of branches, like a Bird''s nest. Zhihao slowly stood up as he looked around, finding no one, he walked out of the room. Immediately, after walking out, he saw Stephany and Kazim, sleeping on the couch. Zhihao chuckled as he sighed, he then walked out of the house and saw that he was inside a tree house. He noticed someone approaching but then decided to ignore it, a silhouette appeared beside him and spoke. "Are you... a God?" Zhihao chuckled as he looked at the person, it was the elf he approached before, Zhihao then thought. ''So, I`m in the Elf Tribe''s village.'' After that, Zhihao scanned the whole tribe as he noticed that there''s a male, and female, but something is amiss, there''s also people without gender, he then replied. "No, I`m a human." "But your followers said that you are a God." Zhihao chuckled as he continued: "Well, I am strong, but I`m not a God." "Then how can you create nature out of nowhere? Bringing back the life in a dead land?" Zhihao ignored her question as he asked. "What''s your name?" The elf shook as she bowed and replied: "Sorry for the rudeness, my name is Fei Xie." Looking at her, Zhihao frowned as he asked. "Are you a Male? or a Female?" Fei Xie tilted her head as she pondered for a bit and replied. "I`m neither." Zhihao then asked: "Then, why do I see male, and female elves in your tribe? or you special?" Fei Xie shook her head as she replied. "No, our genders will be decided when we find our fated one, the one who we will spend the rest of our life with." Zhihao chuckled as he shook his head, and thought. ''I might''ve fallen in love with a person that might be a male in the future." Chapter 180 I`m Back Thinking like that, Zhihao sighed. He didn''t want to force someone to follow him. Zhihao sighed as he looked at Fei Xie and spoke. "Well, I can tell you this, that I am no God, but I am strong." Hearing this, Fei Xie pondered for a bit as she nodded and replied. "Thank you for your time, I`ll be going now, you should use my house to rest for a bit longer." Zhihao smiled as he nodded and spoke. "Thank you." But right after speaking, Zhihao heard a notification. *Ding!* =You can go back to Earth now, proceed?" Zhihao smiled again as he looked at Fei Xie and spoke. "Wait! I`ll be going out, for now, tell my subordinates to wait for me for two days." Fei Xie looked back and was about to ask, but then Fei Xie saw something incredible. Zhihao nodded his head as he proceeded, a Dimensional Scar was produced out of nowhere, Zhihao immediately went inside, leaving no trace behind. Fei Xie opened her eyes wide open as she murmured. "Is he... really not a God?" ... Inside a Company building, Soaring Phoenix Talent Agency. "Shuan, you seriously need a duet with this song!" Zheng Shuan sighed as she continuously rejected. "I don''t want to, I`m already engaged, my husband will see it and I don''t really like for some sort of misunderstanding to occur." Her Manager sighed as he continued. "Shuan, your popularity had sunk, we need to make a comeback! and your fiance is the reason that it also had sunk, We''ll do it just to regain your stand in the S-Rank List." Zheng Shuan sighed as she replied: "Then, I`ll just quit if its all my Fiance''s fault, I can''t be more eager to quit! at least I can get married immediately!" The Manager was shocked as he immediately spoke to calm Zheng Shuan down. "Shuan, what I mean is that, ever since you`ve announced that you are engaged, your popularity has sunk, you were the Top S-ranked celebrity, and after that news, you''re continuously going down, you are almost going down to the A-Ranked list." "I don''t care if..." Just when she was about to continue speaking, she heard her phone ring, she then checked who it is that''s calling, after seeing who it is, Shuan immediately smiled as her previous bad mood vanished. Zheng Shuan immediately packed all of her things as she started to leave. The Manager saw this and asked. "Shuan, what happened? is there any good news? your mood has been brightened up." Zheng Shuan looked at her manager as she smiled and replied: "My Fiance is back, I`ll take the day off for now." After speaking, Zheng Shuan immediately ran out of the room. The Manager could only sigh as he saw the cheerful Shuan leaving the company. ... An hour earlier. Zhihao had finally returned to Earth, What he saw is his Father and Mother, smiling in front of him. Zhihao chuckled as he asked. "Mom, Dad, you`ve been waiting here?" Zhilong and Bing Bing looked at Zhihao as they spoke. Ye Bing Bing: "We''ve just arrived here, we know that you`ll be arriving today, so we immediately went here together." Zhong Zhilong: "I said, that you won''t be arriving here for a couple more hours but she already prepared everything, luckily just after we sat down, you arrived." Zhihao smiled as he heard their explanation, but with how the cushion of the couch is already warm, he estimated that they''ve already been sitting there for a couple of hours already. He immediately felt warm inside his chest as he approached them and spoke. "Mom, Dad, I`m back." After speaking, The three of them walked closer as they had a group hug. After a while, Zhihao''s Sisters had arrived. Zhong Ziyi, and Zhong Ailing. The both of them immediate rushed to Zhihao as they hugged him tightly. "Bro! We''ve missed you!" "Yep! Although it only had been a week, we''ve already missed you so much!" Zhihao smiled as he nodded. The four of them talked about some things that had happened, especially Ailing and Ziyi''s school life. Then out of nowhere, Ziyi immediately exclaimed. "Bro! Your fiance is having a trouble." Zhihao frowned, thinking that Shuan must''ve had an accident, he immediately looked at Ziyi as he asked. "What problems?" "Her popularity has dropped tremendously!" Zhihao hearing this immediately replied: "Who kidnapp... eh? Popularity dropped?" "Un! she''s been dropping from her popularity ever since she announced to the whole world that the both of you are engaged!" Zhihao sighed, he''s very been only thinking about fighting recently, he really needs a breather, he then replied. "Okay, I`ll call her now, Maybe I can help her, no, I`ll go there instead." His Mother and Father wanted to chat for a longer time, but they would still have time later, problems first, especially if it''s your Daughter-in-Law that needs a help. Zhihao changed into some fresh clothes as he bid his farewell. "Mom, Dad, Ailing, Ziyi, I`ll be going, for now, I think we should eat out later." After speaking, Zhihao immediately went to the garage. The four of them nodded as they saw Zhihao''s figure walking out of the Mansion. Zhihao, while in his car called Shuan. "Hey, where are you? I`ll pick you up." Zhihao then heard Shuan running from the other line of the phone and waited. She then replied: "Hao''er, I`m in Xx-XXXX-XXX-XXXX complex, I`ll wait for you there." Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied. "I`ll be going there." ... After a while, Zhihao arrived, he saw Zheng Shuan waiting for her inside the building. When Zheng Shuan saw him, she immediately walked out of the build as she ran towards the car. With nothing to hide her face with, people immediately noticed her as they took a picture. Zhihao sighed as walked out of the car and opened its door, letting Shuan in. Zhihao then asked: "How are you?" "I`m extremely fine... especially since you are here..." After speaking, Zheng Shuan blushed, well Zhihao did too. He then asked: "I heard from my Sister that you are having a trouble?" Shuan looked at Zhihao as she smiled and replied: "Its really nothing big, I just need to conduct a concert and, maybe everything will be solved." Zhihao tilted his head as he parked the Car towards a Coffee Shop. He walked out as he opened Shuan''s door and asked. "Then, why isn''t everything solved yet? is there a problem about the concert?" Shuan felt a little hesitation, but after a while, she nodded her head and replied. "They want me to do a duet with one of the Heavenly Kings." Hearing this, Zhihao thought it wasn''t really a problem, then he thought about something as he asked. "What''s it about?" "It''s about Love." Hearing Zheng Shuan''s reply, Zhihao smiled as he finally understood what''s happening. If a Superstar was suddenly married to an unknown person, the Superstar''s popularity would go down, but if two Superstars sings together in a duet, it might attract a lot more attention from both ends, getting another fan for the other one, Give and take. That''s cool and all, but what they will be singing is a love song, which means that it could cause a misunderstanding, for a lot of people, and to him. Zhihao then placed his hands in Shuan''s waist and spoke. "Its okay, everything will work out fine." Hearing this, Zheng Shuan''s eyes immediately blurred, as tears gathered in it, she immediately hugged Zhihao tightly. Zhihao sighed as he spoke: "What''s the matter?" Zheng Shuan buried her face in Zhihao''s chest as she spoke. "You forgot to say something." Zhihao pondered for a bit as he spoke. "I`m sorry." "That''s not it!" Shuan tightened her hug more. "Uhh... everything will be..." "Not that too!" Trying to think about everything, Zhihao then thought, what if he''s in Zheng Shuan''s position, what would he like to hear the most, especially when she''s in so much trouble lately. Zhihao then realized something as he smiled and caressed her hair. "I`m back." "Un!" Zheng Shuan''s tears fell as it draped all over Zhihao''s shirt, feeling loved and cared for, the both of them entered a World for the two of them. Chapter 181 Want To Do It With Me? Outside ACapouf Coffee Restaurant. Zhihao''s comforting Shuan, while she''s still hugging him tightly. After a while, the both of them woke up from their daze as they continuously heard noises. "Zheng Shuan! You can do it! The two of you look perfect together! don''t let people drag your relationship down!" "YEAH! Follow your Dreams Zheng Shuan!" "You can''t please everyone! we''ll still support you!" Hearing this, Zheng Shuan immediately pulled a handkerchief out of her bag as she wiped the tears in her eyes, she then looked at the surrounding people that had been continuously increasing every minute and spoke. "Thank you, everyone! thank you for always believing me!" Zhihao smiled as he also bowed and spoke. "Thank you for always supporting my Fiance, the support you give her is something that money can''t buy, I hope you`ll continue and support her." Hearing Zhihao''s voice and seeing his Face, all the female supporters of Zheng Shuan immediately added Zhihao''s face in their Idol Library, the one in their hearts. Zhihao and Zheng Shuan waved their hands at the group of people as they entered the restaurant. Zhihao then ordered a cup of coffee while Zheng Shuan ordered a cup of tea. The two of them sat inside and started a topic. Zhihao looked at her as he asked. "So, what are you going to do about your popularity dropping down?" Zheng Shuan smiled, seeing how caring Zhihao really is, she already knows that what Zhihao cared for in this World is only the supplies, his family, maybe she can add herself too, but never did Zhihao care about publicity, popularity, politics, etcetera. Anything that has nothing to do with what he cared for, he wouldn''t even notice, yet here he is, talking about popularity when Zheng Shuan know in herself that, Zhihao doesn''t know anything about it at all, he doesn''t care. She chuckles as she replied: "Its cool, Hao''er, I could even retire if it is for you, I don''t really need to be a Superstar, having you is enough." Zhihao felt awkward as he blushed and looked at the other way while sipping his coffee. Zheng Shuan, realizing what she had said, blushed, as red as a tomato, she immediately looked down. The two of them felt awkward at the current atmosphere, if its somewhere in private, they might be in a love mode, but being in the public, the both of them felt weird. After a few minutes, the awkwardness vanished as they both continued to talk again. Zhihao started. "So, what are your plans?" "I don''t really know, and I don''t want to have a duet with him too." Zhihao tilted his head as he asked: "Why?" "Well... there''s a rumor about us, a very long time ago, about going out together." Zhihao chuckled as he continued: "And he started it?" "Un!" Zhihao chuckled as he spoke. "So... If you sing a duet, you might get your popularity back?" Zheng Shuan pondered for a while as she replied. "Well, we don''t really know, but if... if its from someone famous or a really great singer, then there might be a change, I might go back to the top." Zhihao chuckled as he continued: "So, that''s why they want you to have a duet with that heavenly whatever?" Zheng Shuan chuckled as she replied: "Don''t tease our titles, I`m a Heavenly Queen too you know." Zhihao immediately smiled as he replied: "Well, I don''t know about any Heavenly Queen, but to me, you are my Heavenly Empress." Hearing Zhihao''s flirtious words, Zheng Shuan immediately blushed as she punched Zhihao''s shoulder in a cute way. Zhihao chuckled as he continued. "Well, do you have the copy of lyrics?" Zheng Shuan tilted as she replied. "I don''t have it now, but I have a copy of it in my Phone." Zheng Shuan immediately opened her bag as she searched for it, After finding it, she immediately opened her phone as she searched for the Lyrics, she then handed it over to Zhihao. Zhihao received the phone and started reading. He smiled as he returned the phone and spoke. "That''s a good song, I guess that would really make you have a comeback, you could do it, I won''t get jealous." "You won''t?" "Yep, I won''t misunderstood anything." "Really?" Zheng Shuan sighed, she wanted to at least make her man jealous, she immediately feel down, maybe that''s just what she amounts to, to Zhihao. But what Zhihao had spoken next shocked her. "But you won''t be having any body contacts, not even the tip of your hair." Zheng Shuan blushed as tears started to flow out of her eyes as she felt extemely warm inside. Zhihao was shocked as he got a handkerchief and wiped her tears. "Why are you crying? Have you remembered something bad?" Zheng Shuan shook her head as she replied. "I`m just too happy, that''s it." Zhihao sighed, he didn''t know what women are thinking, he then realized something as he did some thing inside his body, after confirming that it worked, Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Shuan, want to do it with me?" Zheng Shuan, hearing his words, immediately blushed further, she then slowly lifted her head as she replied. "Its too sudden, I`m... I`m not yet prepared..." Zhihao tilted his head as he asked: "What do you mea..." Then remembering what he had said, Zhihao slightly blushed as he continued. "No... What I mean is, want to sing the duet with me?" Zheng Shuan hearing Zhihao''s explanation blushed further as she looked at Zhihao and punched him in a cute manner. "Meanie..." After a while, the both of them smiled as they started to laugh. Zheng Shuan then asked. "Really? I want to have a duet with you Hao, want to practice?" "Sure, but invite your Mother first, we''ll be eating outside with my Family." "Un! then I`ll set it up, what time?" Zhihao pondered for a bit as he spoke. "How about 7:00 PM? Later?" "Okay, its set then, I`ll call my Mom." "Okay, I`ll call my Family then, where should we eat?" "Ah~ I have an Idea, the one where my Mom and I barged in your Family''s reunion." Zhihao smiled as he chuckled and nodded his head. Chapter 182 Remembering Old Times. After a while, both Zhihao and Shuan went out of the coffee shop, and as usual, there''s a lot of people that was brought outside by the internet. Zheng Shuan held Zhihao''s arms as she waved at her fans. "Thank you all for coming, we''re just having a discussion since I haven''t seen my fiance in a very long time." Hearing Shuan''s words, the crowd immediately cheered on. "Woah! Go for it our Goddess, you should live outside the circle, don''t let others bring you down!" "Yeah, every person deserves love, why should a Celebrity be excluded with that." "We are cheering you on!" "Yeah, even if you ever had a child, we will continuously support you!" "Yeah! You are China''s number one Superstar!" Hearing their words of thought, Shuan felt warm as she smiled and bowed. "Thank you all for continuously supporting me, I deeply appreciate it." Then out of nowhere, someone screamed. "BRING US BACK OUR GODDESS!" A Fat guy that looks like he''s in his early 20s screamed, he then threw something towards the both of them. Everyone saw it, big rotten tomatoes, five of them, scattering through the air as it flew towards Shuan. The Fat guy also noticed that the direction the tomatoes are going isn''t towards Zhihao''s, but instead it flew to Shuan''s, he became shocked, he was aiming at Zhihao, but he''s not really good with throwing. He wanted to run but was stopped halfway through by a lot of bystanders, he was immediately surrounded by a group of men that was cheering Shuan earlier. The onlookers screamed as they tried to make Shuan evade it. To Shuan and Zhihao, the tomatoes are like in slow motion, Shuan was about to evade it but as soon as she was going to, Zhihao held her arms as he stretched his hands. Like a knight in shining armor, Zhihao protected Shuan as he gently slapped the tomatoes down to the ground. The rotten tomatoes didn''t explode with his slaps, instead, it actually felt like the tomatoes were going with Zhihao''s flow. Seeing Zhihao''s action, everyone was silent for a few seconds before they people screamed. "Awesome!" "Prince! A Knight in shining armor!" "Shuan! your fiance is so cool!" "Waaaa!" "Such great reflex! Are you an Athlete?" With the commotion, anyone wouldn''t be able to ignore but, and try to act as someone really cool in front of these many people, but to Zhihao, who''s used to be followed by millions of people, it felt nothing, but instead, he walked. Zhihao walked towards the surrounded man. One of the onlookers had been video recording the whole event since both Zhihao and Shuan had gone out of the coffee shop. Zhihao sat in a squat position as he looked at the fat guy. "Why would you do such a thing?" The fat guy realizing that nothing had happened to Zheng Shuan sighed a breath of relief as he glared at Zhihao as he spoke. "You are stealing our happiness! How dare you take our Goddess away?!" Hearing the Fat guys words, the people nearby frowned, preparing to beat the hell out of the fat guy''s b*tt. But Zhihao, on the other hand, is calm, he looked at the fat guy and asked. "If you harmed someone close to Shuan, would that satisfy you?" Hearing this, the fat guy was about to speak, but realizing the meaning behind it, he felt shocked. Would he be happy if he actually made their Goddess, Zheng Shuan, sad? Zhihao then asked another question. "If those things that you had thrown, hit Shuan, what would you feel?" The Fat guy immediately felt enlightened, he was enraged before due to his selfish want, if it actually hit Shuan, he might''ve even committed suicide. "Then, you are her Fan right?" The Fat guy looked at Zhihao as he nodded, not knowing what to say. "Then, what do you guys, the Fan of your Idols does?" The Fat guy hearing this was shocked, as he asked himself, what do fanboys do? shakingly, he spoke. "We... we... we support our Idol, our Goddess..." Zhihao smiled as he asked further. "Then, if she wants to obtain happiness by being selfish, does that count as not being your Idol?" The Fat guy was speechless as he looked at Zhihao in sudden realization. "If you see your Idol hurt, doesn''t that hurt you all as well?" Hearing this, not only is the Fat guy shaken, even the people around them is. Zhihao then added. "Like you all, Shuan is also a human being, she also wants to live, so tell me, is, your Idol, Zheng Shuan, doesn''t deserve to love?" Everyone was speechless. Zhihao then stood up as he spoke to everyone. "We shall be leaving, We need to eat with our family after all." Zhihao bowed to all of them as he waved his hands and escorted Shuan to his car. Everyone was still, not speaking, nor moving, not until Zhihao''s car was finally gone from their vision. "So cool!" "Such a good person!" "Why are there people even preventing such heavenly couple from emerging! They suit each other so well." "Yeah, some people just want to see the World burn." The one recording immediately uploaded the video on the internet while smiling in satisfaction. ... Zhihao drove towards the Mansion, but then his phone rang. Zhihao immediately answered as he spoke. "Yes? Ah Mom, what''s the problem?" Ye Bing Bing replied: "We''re already at the restaurant, So you don''t have to return to the Mansion and pick us up, head here now, we''ll order the food." "Okay Mom, I`ll be there in a few minutes." "Okay, don''t rush, we won''t feel good if you get into an accident." "Okay, I`ll be caution." Zhihao smiled as the both of them turned off their phone. After a while, Shuan asked. "What happened there? I could''ve just evaded those tomatoes." Zhihao pondered for a bit, he then smiled as he replied. "There are no evil person alive, only selfish ones, if you make them realized that what they are doing is extremely wrong, they might change for the better, and I pity men like those too, I can see in their eyes that, you were their only light." Shuan nodded in understanding. Zhihao then added. "And, If someone stole you from me, I`d be like them, selfish, but more dangerous as I won''t be throwing tomatoes." Shuan chuckled as she replied. "Well, I think you`ll be throwing your shoes then." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Maybe, but I want to see something." Shuan looked at Zhihao and asked. "What do you want to see?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "If your popularity will increase because of what I did." Shuan was speechless, Zhihao had always been clueless about things like these, but he actually knew some stuff. Zhihao then added: "I kind of saw myself in him, a long time ago, but that''s when I found something to hold on to." Zhihao remembered the time that he was working to pay for some information about his parents, and he had the same eyes as the Fat guy when he fell from the bridge, something he selfishly wants to hold, something he felt that should at least happen as he wanted. Seeing Zhihao''s sad expression, Shuan smiled as she patted his shoulder. Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Well, everything turned out for the better, I got reunited with my Family, and..." Hearing Zhihao''s words not continued, Shuan asked. "And?" "I met you." Hearing this, Shuan blushed extremely as she covered her face. After a while, Shuan smiled as the both of them laughed. Chapter 183 Arcade Center After a while, Zhihao and Zheng Shuan finally arrived at the restaurant. Zhihao then parked the car as the both of them immediately went towards the west courtyard. The West Wing of the Royal Paladin Restaurant became the personal area for both of the Zheng and Zhong Family. Due to the coverage of the two Families eating there, their popularity had soured, leaps and bounds, barriers had been breached as their sales increased by more than a 1,000%, Although with that kind of accomplishment, they made changes with their schedule, turning the whole restaurant opened for 24/7. All of it was due to the free advertisement they got from both the Zheng and Zhong families, the Owner of the restaurant decided to reserve the whole West Wing for both of them and named it Family Oasis. With a lot of renovations, they made it look like a one-star relaxation place especially for them. Zhihao and Shuan were received by the receptionist and was brought towards the west wing. The both of immediately saw their parents as they spoke. "Mom, we''re here." "Dad, Mom, We''re here." Their parents smiled as they waved their hands, welcoming the both of them. Both Zhihao and Shuan sat beside their parents. The waiters didn''t bring any menu, but the foods are arriving, in their table, some are even sent by the owner himself, speaking some pleasantries before he goes out, not forgetting to act appropriately. Shuan''s mother, Zheng Lin immediately asked. "So, Hao''er, what did you gather us here for? could it be that you''ve already decided the date of your marriage?" Hearing this, all of them laughed, they already got used to how Zheng Lin speaks. Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "Can''t I have anyone gathered just to eat dinner together?" Zheng Lin sighed, pretending to be disappointed as she started to eat and sip some wine. Zhihao then broke the news. "I`d go and Sing the duet with Shuan, although we have only decided it earlier, so we still have no plans about it." Hearing Zhihao, his Mother and Father smiled, even her Sisters got excited. Zheng Lin smiled as she questioned. "Oh, you are going to have a duet with my Daughter? Let me guess, you don''t want her to have a duet with that Heavenly thingy guy right?" Shuan immediately held her Mother''s arm, wanting for her mother to stop teasing Zhihao. Zhihao then replied: "Well, which guy in this World of ours wants other people men having interest in their women, right?" Zheng Lin laughed as she spoke: "Good boy, good boy, well that''s the guts, but let me ask you, can you sing?" Zhihao''s Family immediately realized something important, can Zhihao sing? Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "Well, I haven''t sung before, but I can try." Zheng Shuan then joked: "Well, if my popularity falls after our duet, I can just quit and become a permanent housewife." Hearing this, everyone laughed as they chatted amongst themselves. After the dinner, they bid their farewell to each other as they drove back to their own home. Shuan then called Zhihao through her phone and spoke. Zheng Shuan: "Tomorrow, I`ll pick you up, let''s do a trial for our duet in the company studio." Zhihao: "No, let me pick you up instead, that will break my code if I let you pick me up." Shuan: "Un! See you tomorrow." Zhihao: "Okay, sleep well." Shuan: "You too." ... Zhihao''s mansion. His Sisters were already fast asleep as the both of them immediately got exhausted from school, adding the time that he had dinner, their stamina was heavily spent up. Zhihao then walked to the living room, seeing his parents, he smiled as he walked and sat there with them. "Mom, Dad, how''s your company in the Philippines?" Ye Bing Bing chuckled as she replied. "It is doing pretty well, even on its own, money is still flooding at our banks, why''d you ask?" His Father added: "Do you really not want to have the company?" Zhihao shook his head and spoke: "You guys should retire immediately after Ziyi graduated, just show her the corners of the business." Both his Mother and Father smiled as they nodded. Zhihao, seeing what time it is spoke. "Mom, Dad, you guys should rest now, I`ll be waking up early tomorrow." Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong nodded as they walked to their room, not forgetting to leave a word. "Son, you can just enjoy life, we''re already old, we won''t be able to take care of you for more than ten years, but we''ll surely the rest of it with you." Hearing this, Zhihao sighed, he then replied. "Thanks, Mom, Dad." The two of them smiled as they nodded at Zhihao and continued their walk. Zhihao smiled as he walked out of the mansion, not knowing what to do, Cultivators like him doesn''t even need to sleep, they only do so out of habit. He then sat at the garden as he pondered for some stuff, feeling the fresh cool breeze of the dark night. After an hour or two, Zhihao got bored, thinking of something to do, he then walked to the garage, he wants to have a casual stroll around the night world. ... Zhihao arrived in some arcade center, he remembered his childhood, where he would always look at the kids playing while checking how much money he had. Zhihao parked his car and entered the arcade. He checked around what''s good to play, he then saw a videoke stand in the middle. He then checked his phone for any popular songs, he then found Shuan''s first song. ''Eternity will be mine.'' Zhihao then got out as he listened to this song, after a while, he checked for more, trying to understand the music industry. After a while, Zhihao finally decided what to try out. Zhihao then entered as he checked what''s the number of the song he wanted to sing. After a while, he entered the number as the screen started to show the lyrics. Zhihao felt he needed to release some stress, and he found an old song that he feels is really good. Zhihao picked up the microphone and started to sing. ---Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell It was love from above, like it saved me from hell She had fire in her soul, it was easy to see how the devil himself could be pulled out of me There were drums in the air as she started to dance Every soul in the room keeping time with their hands and we sang Ay oh ay oh ay oh ay And the voices rang like the angels sing We''re singing, ay oh ay oh ay oh ay And we danced on into the night Ay oh ay oh, ay oh ay oh And we danced on into the night--- A lot of people heard this as they immediately walked towards the Arcade center. They even started to murmur amongst themselves. "Who''s that? Is there a famous singing inside?" "I don''t know, but his voice sounds really great." "Wow, is there a free concert or something." "Such great manly voice, yet gentle too, how can those two types be in a single voice." "Ahh! Such a perfect voice! I wonder how he looks like." People walked closer as they entered the Arcade Center, and what they saw is a very handsome young man, singing with a great voice too. A lot of them immediately picked up their phone and immediately recorded the event. Zhihao is in the final lyrics as he noticed that people started to gather. ---(Ay oh ay oh) And we danced on into the night--- Zhihao ended the song as he walked out incredibly fast after. The people immediately clapped their hands as they saw Zhihao''s leaving figure. "Wow! Bravo!" "Such a great voice!" "Who is he?" "Eh? Isn''t that Zheng Shuan''s fiance?" "Really? He''s even more good looking in person!" "He has a great voice, I`ll request that the both of them have a duet instead of Heavenly King Zi Lei." "I think, Zheng Shuan''s fiance has a better voice." "I Think so too!" "I get mesmerized just by listening to them." Zhihao sighed as he rode his car and immediately went away. Title of the Song - Santana - Into The Night ft. Chad Kroeger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ9nQNx0KEs Chapter 184 NAIVE Zhihao drove through a gas station, noticing that he had almost an empty fuel tank. Zhihao left his car as he saw a convenience store by the end of the Gasoline station. He then went inside as he tried searching for some snacks, then he saw two girls sitting in the dining area of the convenience store. Zhihao picked a few snacks, he then walked towards the cashier intending to pay for it, but out of nowhere, he heard something. ---Like a gift from the heavens, it was easy to tell It was love from above, like it saved me from hell She had fire in her soul, it was easy to see how the devil himself could be pulled out of me There were drums in the air as she started to dance Every soul in the room ke...--- Yep, It was his voice, then one of the girls spoke. "Oooohhh, such a great voice!" "Yep, he looked a bit familiar, have I seen him before?" "Oh please, don''t keep bragging about people you met when..." The girl looked around, trying to fix her hair, then in the middle of her speaking, she saw Zhihao''s face. The other girl noticed her friend stopping, she then frowned as she looked at where her friend is currently staring. And yeah, she was stunned too, the both of them were rendered speechless. Zhihao noticed this immediately, he then went and paid the snacks he got and immediately went towards his car and drive off. The two girls finally regained their senses and spoke. "That was Zheng Shuan''s fiance right?" "Yeah, and he looked like..." They both simultaneously looked at the video playing on their phone. "It really is him!" "Zheng Shuan''s fiance is great at singing too!" The two of them immediately commented on the video, revealing who Zhihao is. ... Zhihao''s thinking immediately changed as he thought. ''Shuan''s life is hard, and I barely did anything too.'' He immediately returned back to his Mansion and decided to sleep. ... Morning arrived as Zhihao woke up exactly at 5:00 AM sharp, he then quickly took a bath and got dressed up properly, then headed to Shuan''s house. 6:30 AM, Shuan walked out of her house, going to wait for Zhihao, but after taking a few steps out, she saw Zhihao arriving. Zheng Shuan chuckled as she walked towards the Car. Zhihao immediately went out as he smiled at her and opened up the Car''s door, letting her go inside. "Mom, I`ll be going with Zhihao now." Zheng Lin nodded as she waved her hands at both Zhihao and Shuan. Zhihao bowed and then went to the driver''s seat, he looked at Shuan and asked. "Where is your studio?" "Well, it is near... just go straight here, and when we arrived at the crossing, you`ll need to turn right, and then when we reached the Cafe Emphemiral, we''ll have a left turn, the big building is our Studio, near the crossroad." Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied: "Okay, got it." After replying, Zhihao immediately drove to the location that Shuan had instructed. Zheng Shuan then called the agency. "Manager, I`ll be bringing my partner for the duet." "Who are you bringing?" "My fiance, he`ll be my duet." "This..." "It is either him or nothing at all." "I... I`ll tell it to the management first." "Kay, thanks manager Lim." "Okay... okay, I`ll try my best." Shuan smiled as she closed her phone, humming lovely inside the Car. Just after 20 minutes, they finally arrived. Zhihao dropped Shuan at the entrance and asked. "Where should I park my car?" Shuan took something out of her bag as he handed it to Zhihao and spoke. "Just go behind the building, and when you enter, just show them my I.D" "Got it." After Shuan had gotten out, Zhihao immediately drove his car to the back of the building. Shuan giggled as she entered the building, but then a silhouette in front of her blocked her way. Shuan immediately spoke. "Miss Rin, good morning to you." Meidan Rin, the ranked 5th amongst the Heavenly Kings and Queens, working with the same agency as Shuan. Rin snickered as looked at Shuan, her expression immediately turned into a frosty serious face and spoke. "I heard you especially requested that you and your fiance will do a duet, I guess you are already planning to retire." Hearing this, Shuan frowned and replied: "Miss Rin, although you are much older than me, I`m still thinking that I`m doing quite a good job." Rin chuckled as she continued: "Is this a playground? just cause you wanted to play here, you`ll even bring your fiance? Hmmp! What''s so good about your fiance anyway." Rin is a self-centered woman, she would only care about her own reputation and the reputation of other Heavenly Queens and Kings going down while hers rise up. Rin didn''t even see how Zhihao looks, she casually thought that Shuan fell in love with a random plebian, making her feel proud of herself. Shuan immediately frowned, she could speak badly of her, but definitely not her fiance. With Shuan''s current power and physique, she could easily trash this weakling in front of her, she tried to calm herself up and replied. "I`ll be going, for now, I can''t talk to an uneducated person." "You!.... You!..." Shuan ignored her as she smiled, seeing the enraged Rin felt good, in her thought. ''I guess, releasing stress like this isn''t really bad." She immediately walked inside as she ignored Rin, still speechless of what she had said. Rin got enraged and screamed. "Where are you going! I`m not done talking to you!" Shuan looked at Rin, stuck her tongue out and touched the skin below her eyes and made a sound. "Bleeeeh." Shuan immediately did a hop skip jump action as she happily strode towards her office. After a while, Rin came back to reality, remembering what had just happened, Rin immediately became totally triggered, she gritted her teeth as she wanted to follow, but wearing six inched heels, she immediately stumbled. Rin''s heart tightened, she is about to hit the corner of the entrance. To an S-list celebrity, the face is everything, and if so as a scratch was made, it will immediately be noticed by a lot of people, it will spread around the whole world in just about an hour, she will be holding a concert today too, and if something happened that made the concert get cancelled, it will all be blamed on her. Rin is scared as hell now, but suddenly, a man caught her, holding her arms firmly, preventing her from hitting the entrance''s corner. She immediately retook her balance and immediately spoke. "Get your fil..." She hasn''t finished speaking, but as soon as she saw who it was, she immediately halted her next words. A Man, more beautiful than her, is standing in her front, as flowers and sunlight made its appearance out of nowhere, making her lose focus. Her imagination ran wild as it stretched farther in the future. -We''ll start to get to know each other. -We''ll start to go out, and have a lot of date. -We''ll get married. -Have a dozen children. -Grow old together. All sorts of fantasy appeared in her mind in just barely a second. The Man, Zhihao tilted his head and asked. "Are you okay? did you get hurt anywhere?" Rin immediately fixed herself as she replied. "I`m okay." She blushed as she looked at the ground, playing with her fingers like a child that did something wrong. Zhihao replied: "That''s good, better be careful next time, okay?" Rin blushed further as she nodded, then she summoned all of her courage as she spoke. "Can I please have your cell phone number?" Rin blushed much more while her eyes are closed and is currently looking at the ground, she became as red as a tomato, but after a few seconds, she didn''t hear a response, she then opened her eyes and found nobody is in front of her. She then looked behind her and saw Zhihao walking in. Zhihao had already walked away as soon as he heard that Rin is okay. Rin looked at Zhihao''s silhouette as she smiled and spoke. "Hmmp, Playing Hard to get eh, I like that too, more challenges for me." Rin then imitated how Shuan had acted before, hop, skip, jump while humming cheerfully. Chapter 185 Shocking Practice Inside a Company building, Soaring Phoenix Talent Agency. Zhihao walked inside, showing Shuan''s ID to anyone asking for his identity. Zhihao asked for directions and finally found where Shuan is, he immediately went as he tried to find Shuan. After a while of walking, he finally saw Shuan, he then walked towards her and knocked on the glass window. Shuan heard the knock, she immediately looked behind and saw Zhihao, she smiled as she immediately ran towards Zhihao''s direction. "Hao, I`m going to the Upper Management, I`m going to ask for their permission." Zhihao nodded his head as he replied. "Okay, I`ll just wait over there, come after you`re done." "Un." After nodding, Shuan immediately walked towards the elevator, Zhihao sighed as he then walked towards the seat on the corridor. Zhihao sighed as he had nothing else to do, then while sitting around, he decided to watch some videos using his phone. Rin had been looking for Zhihao for like 15 minutes, then he saw him sitting in a corridor. Rin immediately fixed herself up as she checked herself for about five times in the mirror, but as soon as she looked at the seat, Zhihao is already gone. "This... "What is happening? He was there a moment ago." She then walked in a different direction from where Zhihao had taken. ... Just when Rin arrived, Shuan finally came back from the upper management, dragging Zhihao to the studio where the both of them will practice. After arriving at the Studio, Shuan immediately handed four pieces of papers. Zhihao looked at it, it has changed here and there from the previous one that Shuan had shown him. When the both of them are reading the sheet, the Manager came. Zhihao looked at him and smiled. "Hello, you were there when I first met Shuan, her manager, right?" The manager smiled at him and replied. "Yes, it has been a while, Zhong Zhihao right? I`m Lim Cheol, nice to meet you again." The two of them shook hands and immediately went back to topic. Lim Cheol spoke: "Okay, we''ve rearranged a lot of parts from the lyrics, we''ve made it more of a casual song, and added more intimacy and longing, we thought that it will be perfect since the both of you are engaged." Both Zhihao and Shuan nodded as they looked at the lyrics. After a few minutes, Zhihao spoke. "I think, I already got it, shall we practice?" Shuan nodded her head as she replied: "Okay, we''ll start practicing now." "Manager Lim, please set up the studio practicing area." The Manager, Lim Cheol nodded as he ordered his team: "Okay, you heard the star, move your asses to work!" "Yes!" The team immediately worked up as Zhihao and Shuan moved to the singing area. Zhihao and Shuan still read the lyrics as the team is preparing. After a while, the preparation has been finished. Shuan looked at Zhihao and asked. "Hao, you ready?" "Yep." Shuan signaled Lim Cheol, Lim nodded as he counted down, three... two... one... Shuan: "I`ve seen a dream, a wonderful dream." "A time, where I found you, and the day that I realized something." Shuan looked at Zhihao lovingly, no pretense, no acts, just a natural love glowing out of her eyes. ~I wish, It will come again. ~The Times where I could be with you, those innocent times. ~I wish, It will come again. ~The Days, I have all of you in my embrace. ~The Wish I want to make come true. ~The wish, which is you. Zhihao smiled at Shuan as he continued. Chorus: ~My Dear, I will leave. ~But wouldn''t mean I won''t ever return. ~Something I must do and all of these are for you. ~The Time will come, where your wish will come true. Zhihao and Shuan. Z&S. ~It feels so good, these feelings. Zhihao and Shuan held hands as they continued. ~I will bring you to the paradise, ~Our dreams will be carried by the winds as each of our separate paths ~Shall converge once more. ~The Time, where the both of us, can hold each other''s hands. Zhihao: ~No responsibilities Shuan: ~No weight. Z&S: ~Plainly, our innocent and gentle love. ... On the other side of the Room, Lim Cheol is shocked there is also some thoughts wondering in his mind. ''Are you sure... that it is a duet between an Amateur and a Superstar? Why does it feel like I`m watching two top Singers...'' Currently, all of the staffs inside the recordings have different reactions. Astonishment! Stunned! Shock! Disbelief! Even the staff were shaken, is Shuan''s fiance really an amateur? how come he''s even better than some of the heavenly kings! Then at the end of the song, the both of them holding hands as they sang the last sentence "On the winds of our love, we shall meet again." A sustained note made the entire team stand up on their chair, unable to believe that these notes are coming from the both of them. Although Zhihao''s voice and Shuan''s voice were different, it has a very good harmonization in it. Zhihao adjusted his voice to support Shuan''s voice, making their duet a very godly combination. All the team on the other side walked towards the singing room as they clapped their hands. "Great!" "That''s too awesome!" "I even felt emotional." "Yeah! It''s like I`m watching a real couple!" One of them knocked the head of the person and replied: "Idiot! They are a real couple!" "Oh! Sorry, I was into the song that I even forgot about that." The Manager, Lim Cheol thought of something as he smirked. "Shuan, Zhihao, I`d like to get a permission." The both of them tilted as they asked. "For what?" "I`m going to make an advertisement, and that advertisement is the whole practice the both of you had done, well, I`ll need to take some videos of you both having a meal, happily having a conversation, etc. to be added in the background." Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "No problem." Shuan smiled as she nodded. "Great! Then, you guys, we shall be a little busy for the whole day!" Lim Cheol spoke excitedly, he would inform the upper management after he posted the video online. "YES TEAM LEADER!" All of them laughed for a bit as they went back and prepared for the recording. Zhihao and Shuan then sat at the studio recording, waiting for a go signal to get some videos filmed. Outside the singing room, there''s a silhouette standing. A beautiful face, but there''s something wrong, her expression seemed dull, tears are flowing down from her eyes down to her cheeks. It is Rin, the woman that Zhihao had just saved earlier in the company entrance. She looks like someone that has no life, a sad expression can be seen. Then out of a sudden, she smiled sadly and spoke in a low tone. "So, God, Is this the way, the way you want me to feel how I treated everyone around me? The bad things that I had done." Rin smirked, then looked at Zhihao and Shuan before leaving silently. Chapter 186 Ominous feeling Somewhere within a very gorgeous display of garden. A woman with light blue hair, beautiful jade white skin, and a very great figure is currently sitting in the bench in the middle of a garden while looking at the sky with an expression of sadness in her eyes. Out of nowhere, two people approached and called her. "Ning''er, what are you doing being sad all alone here?" Yep! it is Zhihao''s wives. Ning''er looked at them as she smiled and replied. "I`m just remembering something." Verushka chuckled as she replied: "Remembering Zhihao? If you know him too well, he might be with some girl right now, flirting, so you should brace yourself, he might return, bringing a group of girls beside him, you never know, there might be a few extra children too." The three of them laughed as they held their stomach, then out of nowhere, their laughter died as their face became extremely serious. Verushka broke the silence and spoke: "If that ever happened, I`ll be the first one to kill him." The usually silent Xiao''er changed into a very emotionless assassin. "I can''t forgive him if he''s enjoying himself, while he left us here to handle the whole World''s issues." Ning''er sighed as she spoke: "We, just need to hold on, he''ll come back, you know him, right? the both of you had already witnessed how he acts." Pausing for a bit, Ning''er looked at the sky as she continued. "If he is currently with someone, then that woman will definitely have a great person, someone that we can get along with, definitely." Hearing Ning''er''s words, Verushka and Xiao''er sighed. Verushka then spoke. "Well, I guess, you`ve already gotten so used to it, you are the first wife after all, and you`ve seen Xiao''er and me with Zhihao, I guess it is our turn to feel how you always felt." Xiao''er nodded as she reminisced about the past, the four of them, together, complete with their children, although it had only been for a month, all three of them treasured it like it is the purpose of their life. Then three little silhouettes appeared as they were remembering the old times. "Mom! We''ve protected the villages in the western area, we''ve repelled the trolls attacking the citizens there." It is Baichen aged 9, Yingyi aged 8, and Mary aged 6. the three of them, are as freedom lovers as their father was. Ning''er immediately looked at the three of them, she frowned as she spoke. "I told you to just train, not go out of the castle, why didn''t you listen to us." Looking at the three children with their messy clothes full of dust and mud all around their clothes, Ning''er couldn''t help but become mad. Yingyi and Mary hid behind Baichen, while Baichen is in the predicament, Baichen played with his fingers as he made an excuse. "But... mom... we''re already strong, we can handle them." Ning''er frowned as she spoke. "Promise me, that you won''t do something as reckless as that, ever again!" "Yes, We promise." "We Promise mom." "Yes Mommy! We shelously pwomish!" Ning''er sighed as she nodded and spoke: "Go to your bed now, you should go sleep." Realizing that they had already got away scot-free, the three of them smiled as they nodded and ran back to the castle. "Charge!" "Yes, Commander!" "Chwards!" The three of them happily entered the Castle. Verushka then walked closer and spoke. "Mu Lan." A silhouette appeared out of as a beautiful lady bowed to the three of them, Mu Lan is one of Zhihao''s direct disciples. "Yes, My ladies." Verushka looked at her and asked. "How''s their progress?" Mu Lan looked at them as she reporter. "The Young Masters and Young Miss had been developing really well, especially in front of danger, although they would cower for a second, but... After that, their expression turns into someone that has no emotion." Remembering the scene, Mu Lan shuddered, were those really the expression some Kids should possess? She then continued. "They became, very strong, and it seemed that whenever something dangerous is about to hit them, those things immediately vanish before it reached any of the three Young Masters and Miss." Hearing this, the Three of them sighed, if these continue, their children might go into a bad path, becoming arrogant and prideful in the future. Verushka looked at Mu Lan and spoke: "Okay, please kept guarding them, you can change shifts with your Brothers and Sisters if you became tired." Mu Lan nodded as she replied: "Yes, my Lady." After speaking, Mu Lan immediately vanished, following the three children''s way. Ning''er sighed as she called out. "Mo Ying." "Here!" Mo Ying immediately appeared in front of them, prepared to report anytime. Ning''er asked. "What''s the situation with our current progress?" Mo Ying bowed as he reported. "Miss, almost 90% of the Human Race, Demon Race, and Beast Kin had gone and occupied the previous bases of the invaders, using all of the things there as a means for their daily life." Pausing for a bit, he then continued. "Also, people started making a Kingdom out of those bases." Ning''er nodded and asked once more: "How many people had you all saved from the prisons of the invaders?" Mo Ying immediately reported: "I`m not really sure of the exact numbers, but we''ve already rescued more than a billion citizens, from young to Old." Ning''er nodded as she waved her hand and spoke. "Thank you, Mo Ying, you can go now." "Yes, my Lady." Mo Ying immediately vanished as he went and tried to search for more things to report. Xiao''er sighed as she called out. "Ning Beirong." "Here!" A sturdy man, that looks like he''s in his early 50s appeared and bowed in front of them. Xiao''er then asked: "How''re the things I had requested?" Beirong immediately looked at Xiao''er as he reported: "Miss, the villagers, seemed to be normal, although they still felt a little weird, they always go and gather around in the center of their village, dancing and something like, they are trying to do something, we can''t figure it out." Xiao''er nodded in understanding, it must be their village''s tradition, but she heard Zhihao''s words before, Zhihao tasked his Celestial General, Ying Mai, to watch over those villagers, so she also did the same. Xiao''er looked at Beirong and asked: "And the other thing?" "Yes, The Monsters around our continent seemed to become stronger as days passed, they are dangerous... Especially those creatures with big body and wings, scales growing from their skin." Xiao''er nodded as she waved her hands and spoke. "Thank you for your service Beirong, you can go and rest for now." "Yes, my Lady." Beirong nodded at the three of them before going away. The three of them looked at each other and spoke. Xiao''er: "Everything, is changing, the sudden appearance of these things are causing a havoc, what should we do?" Verushka and Ning''er shook their head, they don''t know what to do too. Ning''er sighed as she spoke: "Should we deal with it ourselves?" Verushka pondered for a bit before agreeing and replied: "Yes, we should take them on while they are still weak." Xiao''er immediately nodded and spoke: "Okay, when shall we start?" Ning''er then felt something, she felt a very bad omen, something that feels incredibly bad. Xiao''er and Verushka felt the same thing too as they shuddered. The three of them looked at each other as they spoke. Ning''er: "It was the same thing as when..." Verushka continued: "When... when Zhihao vanished." Xiao''er then looked at the both of them as she replied: "Should we... not go?" Ning''er and Verushka pondered for more, they trust their intuition more than anything after what had happened with Zhihao. Ning''er then looked at them as she spoke: "Verushka, you are the strongest amongst us, you should stay here with Xiao''er, someone needs to stay here to protect our land and to guide our Empire, the Empire of our Husband." Verushka wanted to rebuke, but, just like Zhihao, once Ning''er made a desicion, she won''t take it back. Verushka then spoke: "Bring Mo Ying with you, just make sure to contact us if something bad happens." Xiao''er nodded as she added: "If something doesn''t feel right, return immediately, I`ll really get mad at you if you don''t." Ning''er smiled as she flew into the sky and spoke: "I will don''t worry." Chapter 187 A Satisfied Goddess Zhihao and Shuan walked towards the cafeteria for the filming. Lim Cheol immediately ordered his team in organizing the area. The team immediately placed cameras everywhere, placing green backgrounds in places that people would pass to avoid them getting caught in the video. Lim Cheol ordered some foods from a restaurant and made it look like some foods sold on the streets while gathering some things to decorate the area. Lim Cheol looked at them as he asked. "Are the both of you ready?" Zhihao and Shuan nodded, waiting for instruction. Lim Cheol smiled as he spoke: "Okay, all you have to do is act natural, like what the both of you guys are doing, spending time together." Hearing this, both Zhihao and Shuan smiled as they immediately both entered working mode. In Zhihao and Shuan''s state, they are trying to ignore anything else. Then Zhihao asked. "What should we do?" Shuan looked at him and replied: "I... don''t really know." Zhihao sighed, then he picked up his chopsticks to eat, but as soon as he saw the look of the food in their table, Lu Fan frowned as he picked one up and spoke. "This... it looks like a Frog''s foot." Shuan looked at the chicken wing with some designs at the end of it, then realizing Zhihao''s words, she chuckled and replied. "Ewww, that''s gross." Zhihao thought of an idea as he closed his chopsticks towards Shuan''s lips. Shuan saw the chicken wings, but imagining that it really looks like a frog''s legs, she moved away. Zhihao chuckled as he moved the chicken wings towards her some more. Shuan is sighed as she picked a chopstick on her own and fought Zhihao, on a bloody death match. After a while, the both of them finally had a truce, as every chicken wings are on his plate now. Shuan chuckled as she spoke. "You eat that, I`ll just eat this barbequed meat." Zhihao with a chicken wing in his mouth nodded. After a while, Zhihao looked at Shuan and asked. "So, has there been anything unusual?" Shuan looked at him as she pondered for a bit before shaking her head and replied. "Nothing that I know of." Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "So... when will I have a chance of eating your meals?" Zhihao asked while eating the chicken wings. Shuan blushed for a bit as she chuckled. "I`m not really that great at cooking, but you can go to our house anytime, I`ll make you a meal." Zhihao nodded as he continued eating. Shuan watched Zhihao eating while she smiled at him. Lim Cheol witnessing the bond between them, he sighed. There could basically some couples that you know will break up sooner or later, but seeing the both of them, Zhihao and Shuan looked like they were soulmates, it looked like they had been together from their past life. He ordered the cameraman and his group to pack up, and prepare for the next scene. Lim Cheol walked closer to the both of them as he spoke. "Let''s go to the park, we''ll do our next tape there." Hearing him, Zhihao and Shuan finally remembered that they were taking a video recording, the both of them nodded as they followed him. Somewhere in the dark, someone is observing everything with an expressionless face. She shook her head and spoke to herself. "No, is the Karma I`m receiving not enough?" And just like a deranged person, she saw in the window her face, not following her movements and spoke. "Are you going to give up just like that?" It was Rin, she''s having a very strange delusion after witnessing something she thought was hers been taken away by someone else. Rin looked at the ground, not knowing what to say to her other self. The one in the window spoke: "What if... Shuan dies..." Rin looked at the window as she responded: "Trying to make me a murderer now? you`ve been hanging at my mind for longer than you need to be!" The one in the window chuckled as she replied: "But... I made you who you are today, I`m the one that had caused all of your achievements." Rin frowned, not knowing what to say again. The one in the mirror chuckled as she continued: "An accident wouldn''t... make you a murderer." Hearing this, Rin smiled, but after a few seconds, she shook her head and replied: "No... I`ve done everything you have made me do, I want to change..." "It is too late..." "It is not, I can still be changed!" The one in the mirror returned to normal as a voice in Rin''s head faded, but leaving a message. "But... can you... change?" Rin shook her head, not trying to bite any of those thoughts. Rin has multiple personality, although she''s pretty innocent before, but her other personality made her stronger, much more tougher as she turned to what she had before. When Rin was about to follow up, a silhouette appeared out of nowhere and spoke. "Rin! You''re here, how are you?" Rin looked at the silhouette as she spoke: "Chairman Mang, I`m doing fine." Chairman Mang smiled as he nodded his head and spoke: "Good, do your best tomorrow, okay?" "Yes, Chairman." Chairman Mang nodded as he smiled and went on his way. Rin looked at where Zhihao and Shuan were sitting before as she walked to the opposite direction. ... Zhihao, Shuan and Lim Cheo with his team arrived at the park, they immediately made preparation for the film as they set up a temporary tent for them. They set up some clean blankets at the grassy field and started to bring out a few baskets of foods. Lim Cheol told them to already go and enjoy themselves, and don''t bother with how they prepared everything. Zhihao and Shuan nodded as they sat down and ate some foods. The both of them talked about some minor things that had been recently happening, but then, Zhihao felt a sudden urge to do number one and spoke. "Wait, I`ll go and take a bath first." Shuan nodded as she stood up, clearing any grass that''s on her jeans. Zhihao walked out of the picnic area, a Cameraman caught a very great scene as he tried to test the camera, the leaving figure of Zhihao walking out of the toilet, as Shuan, smiled as brightly as a star, making her look extremely beautiful, like something that had never happened before. The cameraman was stunned at first but then spoke. "A smile of a satisfied Goddess?" Chapter 188 Releasing After a whole morning of filming, Zhihao and Shuan finally came back to the studio. Lim Cheol spoke to them. "Shuan, you should go and get some rest, I guess the both of you aren''t that hungry as you`ve basically eaten for the whole morning, take the day off for now." Shuan nodded as she replied: "Thanks Manager, I`ll go and rest for today, I`ll go with Hao for now." Lim Cheol nodded as he walked out and spoke. "Leave the editing to me, I`ll immediately post it on the internet." Waving his hands, he then walked to the editing room with his team. Zhihao looked at Shuan as he spoke: "I`ll go and get the car in front of the building, wait for me there." Shuan nodded as she replied: "Okay, I`ll just pack some of my things and go there immediately." Zhihao nodded as he walked out of her room. Shuan smiled at Zhihao''s leaving figure before packing her things up. After a while, Shuan finished packing and immediately walked out of her room. But before she could, a silhouette blocked her path. Shuan looked at the figure and saw Rin standing. Shuan was about to speak, but Rin beat her into it. Rin bowed her head and spoke: "Shuan, for all the things that I had done, I`m really sorry." Shuan was shocked at first, but then looked at the sincere bow of Rin as she smiled and nodded. "Don''t worry about it, there were no people harm, just some small fights with our words." Although Shuan didn''t buy anything, she could at least try if what she said is really the truth. Rin looked at Shuan as she nodded and replied: "Thanks, I`m trying to change, but I guess it won''t be that easy." Shuan nodded as she smiled and walked away, leaving a few words of goodbye. "Well, I`m going now, see you." Rin smiled as she nodded, then at the glass wall from Shuan''s room, Rin''s second personality showed up. "She''s going to the man you love." Rin tried to ignore it. "There''s no one here, there are no surveillance cameras too." Rin still tried to ignore it as she walked. "There will be no evidence." Rin frowned, but after a while, she shook her head. "Without her, he''ll definitely be yours." Rin''s eyes immediately changed as she looked at Shuan, she immediately walked as she tried to catch up to her. Rin saw some pen on the chairs loitering around, she picked it as she continued chasing after Shuan. Shuan felt something weird as she heard some footsteps closing in on her, she immediately grabbed her handbag preparing if there''s something that''s going to happen. It is already 12:01 PM, all of the employees are having their lunch outside the office. Rin smiled as she held the pen in her hands, she then held Shuan''s shoulders, but right after that, she woke up from her daze, noticing that she''s holding Shuan''s shoulders, she was shocked. Shuan was about to retaliate, she looked at who it is and saw it was Rin, but she''s not doing anything and asked. "What is it?" Rin looked at Shuan as she woke up from her daze and replied: "Nothing, I just wish for you to have a safe trip." Shuan looked at Rin a bit longer before speaking. "Thank you, I will." After replying, Shuan sighed as she walked out of the room. ''That was close, I almost hit her with my bag.'' After thinking, Shuan walked faster to avoid anymore misunderstanding to happen and went towards the front of the building to wait for Zhihao''s arrival. Rin sighed as she thought. ''What was I thinking, its all because of this crazy mind of mine, haaa, I`ll just go and drink some coffee.'' Rin then walked back to where she came from, and from the window, her silhouette is speaking to her. "That was the perfect opportunity, why waste it!?" Rin frowned but continued to ignore it. "Hmmp! Getting your man stolen from you, what a weakling." Rin sighed, it wasn''t even her man in the beginning, what''s there to be stolen, she continued to walk as she ignored her other personality. ... Zhihao and Shuan rode the car back to Shuan''s house. After arriving there, Shuan invited Zhihao inside. "Hao, why not spend the day here?" Zhihao pondered for a bit as he nodded and replied: "Okay, I will." Hearing his reply, Shuan smiled as she nodded and entered her house. Zhihao called his mom and Dad over the phone and spoke. "Mom, Dad, I`ll be staying with Shuan and her Mother for the day, I won''t be coming back until night." "Okay, enjoy yourself Hao''er." "I will." Zhihao closed his phone as he parked his car in the parking space of the Zheng residence. After a while, he walked towards the Zheng''s door as he knocked. Zheng Lin immediately answered: "Come in, the door is open Hao." Zhihao sighed as he nodded and opened the door. Zhihao saw Zheng Lin and immediately greeted: "Aunty, I`ll be intruding." Zheng Lin smiled as she nodded and replied: "Come in, Come in, hahaha you`ll finally be staying here for a while, so I guess Shuan''s moon will be pretty good for a few days." Shuan then appeared from the stairs as she spoke. "Mom! what are you saying!" Shuan blushed hearing Zheng Lin''s words. She had just finished changing her clothes to some casual ones to wear at home, unlike other women, Shuan doesn''t like revealing clothes as such, she wore a short for boys and a loose shirt for men. Seeing this, both Zheng Lin and Zhihao chuckled. Zhihao laughed because of how weird Shuan looks when she''s on her casual wear, on the other hand, Zheng Lin is laughing for a different reason. Zheng Lin''s thought. ''You are bringing your fiance, dressing like that... do you want to cancel your engagement as early as possible? hahaha'' Zheng Lin shook her head as she continued in reading the newspaper. Shuan noticed their laughter as she blushed, she then ignored it and spoke: "Hao, what would you like to eat? I`ll cook something..." but before she could finish, her phone rang, Shuan picked up her phone as she answered. "Yes, Manager Lim?" Lim Cheol smiled as he replied: "We''ll be releasing your video now, and the upper management already approved and even made a generous advertisement fund, we already have a few million to spare for your promotional video." Hearing this, Shuan excitedly nodded as she replied: "That''s great! Thanks, manager Lim!" "Don''t worry about it, just watch it our T.V''s channel, it''s a five-minute long video, so be sure to get a glimpse of it." "Yeeeeeess." Shuan looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "Hao, our video will be posted today, want to watch it first?" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied: "Sure, I`m still stuffed at all those food we ate earlier." Shuan ran towards Zhihao as she dragged him to the couch. Shuan opened the T.V as she watched the Chinese drama currently on the play. Zhihao smiled at her as he also watched the T.V. A very calming atmosphere had encircled the whole living room of the Zheng''s house. Chapter 189 National Sensation Zhihao and Shuan watched the drama on t.v as they sat on the living room. Zheng Lin, on the other hand, kept reading the newspaper while glancing at the both of them once in a while. Looking at the both of them, she sighed and thought. ''You guys are engaged, a little sweetness wouldn''t hurt, why are you guys so far away from each other.'' Seeing the two of them a seat apart, Zheng Lin couldn''t help but wonder, then a thought popped up in her head as an evil but brilliant scheme appeared in her head. She then got her phone and messaged someone. She wrote. -Call me, you`d need to make it looks like a very urgent matter or else, you know what will happen, be sure to shout too, I need something that would become something very believable, you have a minute to prepare. Sincerely, Grim Reaper. After sending the message, Zheng Lin smiled as she put down her phone and continued to read the newspaper. After a while, someone called Zheng Lin. Zheng Lin opened her phone and pressed the loudspeaker as she placed it on her arm chair. The one from the call immediately spoke. "Ma''am, We''ve got a problem." Zheng Lin pretended to frown as she asked. "What''s the problem? report." "Yes, one of our major investors are backing out of the contract, they wish to annul our agreement with their company." Hering this, Zheng Lin stood up and acted like in a panic as she replied. "Oh! Wait for me there, I`ll go." "Yes!" Zheng Lin closed her phone as she looked at Shuan and Zhihao. "I need to sort some problems in the company first." Shuan looked at Zheng Lin as she spoke. "Mom, that sounds serious, want us to go with you?" Zheng Lin smiled as she shook her head and replied: "I can handle it, you both spend your days quietly today, you both haven''t seen each other for a week, spending some time together will be good, I`ll go now." Shuan nodded as she spoke: "Okay, mom, Take care." Zheng Lin nodded and spoke to Zhihao. "Hao, I`ll leave my daughter to you, for now, I won''t be coming back until late evening." Zhihao nodded as he replied. "Okay, take care of yourself." Zheng Lin immediately wore a jacket as she walked towards her parked car, driving it out of their house. Zhihao and Shuan sighed as they both continued in watching the t.v, then after a while, their commercial appeared. Some words appeared before their video started. -Zhong Zhihao and Zheng Shuan''s time together. A duet of two lovers, fighting for the acceptance of public opinion. Zhihao and Shuan chuckled at the words written on the screen, they seriously thought of some serious words to attract some attention. After a while, the song started as the videos of the two of them showed. Seeing the video on the screen, Shuan smiled as she walked towards the kitchen. She got some juice from the fridge and made one for each of them while watching the commercial. She got back towards the living room as she handed the juice to Zhihao. "Thanks." Zhihao smiled as he received the juice, Shuan then sat closer to Zhihao as she had a sip of the juice, placing it at the table. Shuan then leaned at Zhihao as they both watched the commercial. The both of them smiled as the atmosphere became calm and soothing to be in. ... On the internet. Shuan''s agency also posted the video in Omnitube. Omnitube is a very popular watching platform on the internet with almost trillions of videos uploaded inside. The people that want to watch Zhihao and Shuan''s video immediately came and searched for it in Omnitube, they want to watch it for the second time. The comments section has been flooding with comments as the views kept rising. "Oh my god! Is this for real?" "Shuan''s fiance has a great handsome face, and with a godly voice too!" "The Harmonization of their voices is too heavenly!" "Why is someone as talented as he is hasn''t yet became known?" "He could already be a match for any of the Heavenly Kings and Queens!" "Such a handsome face!" "Look at his build! I want to lift his shirt up and lick his abs!" "Me too!" "+1" "+2" "Advance ako mag isip +10." The video became a national sensation within just a few seconds, the power of the publicity from Shuan''s popularity added with her Agency is the top amongst its peer! A million views, billions, and it still kept increasing by the time. A single person almost watched it for a hundred times, kept replaying it as it sounded really great and lovely to watch too. ... Somewhere in the distant where Zhihao and Shuan took a picnic together. A silhouette of a female is clenching her phone as tears flowed down from her eyes down to her cheek. She walked out of the park as she strode aimlessly at the sidewalk, not minding anything. Every car she passed by, a figure of her is speaking to her inside her mind. "I told you, you`ll only get hurt." It is Rin, and her 2nd personality. "If you had already done it, you will be the one that would be in that video." "Just follow my words and you`ll live a life full of satisfactory." "I`ll handle everything, you should rest." Rin kept weeping as she shook her head, trying to ignore her second personality''s voice. "If you don''t, you will die!" Rin woke up from her daze and found that she''s almost half way through the pedestrial. Its a no-walk signal, and the cars were extremely fast in the highway. A youth in his 19s is walking by casually with a thought. ''The heavenly energy in this World is too sparse, will I ever reach Dark Gold realm in this world?'' While thinking like that, he then saw a woman with no life in her eyes, he looked at the traffic lights and immediately spoke. "Not good." Yi Long immediately rushed towards her as fast as he can. Although Yi Long wouldn''t careless if any unrelated person to him dies, but if its in front of him, he''ll do anything to save that person from dying. Rin woken up from her daze, as she looked around, cars are rushing towards her. The driver finally saw Rin standing in the middle of the road as he tried to break, he kept hitting the horns in order for her to run. But the shocked Rin is in the panic, couldn''t move on her spot. Then a figure appeared in front of her. The figure embraced her and jumped from the sky, evading the car. Rin in his embrace felt awed, wasn''t these sort of things can only be seen in the movies? The both of them landed as Yi Long let go of her. The man driving the car went out to check what had happened. "Are you both alright? what are you doing dazing around in the middle of the road, you could''ve died!" Rin looked at the man as she spoke. "I`m really sorry, I was in such a mess, I`m really sorry." The man saw Rin''s face and immediately smiled. "Aren''t you Rin? The heavenly Queen? please give me an authograph." Rin looked at the man that saved her and spoke. "Thank you." Rin bowed as she expressed her gratitude. Yi Long nodded as he continued his walk. Rin looked at Yi Long wanting to entertain him some more for saving her, but her mood is so down that she couldn''t see his face clearly. She then looked at the Man as she took the note and sign it. The one in Rin''s head spoke. "What are you doing? He almost killed us! you should throw the paper and demand appropriate payment!" Yi Long paused his steph as he felt a big negative energy, he looked at Rin and frowned. Chapter 190 Author: How I cook Roasted Pork Chapter Zhihao and Shuan finished watching the commercial. Shuan while leaning in Zhihao''s chest lifted her face and asked. "Would you like to eat now?" Zhihao pondered for a bit as he nodded and replied: "Okay, Just a light one would suffice." Shuan nodded as she stood up. When She was about to walk away, she remembered something, she looked at Zhihao as she blushed. She bent her body as she took a fast kiss on Zhihao''s lips before blushing her way out of the living room, running as fast as she can towards the Kitchen. Zhihao was speechless at first, but then he sighed as he shook his head. Shuan then prepared the things she needed, thinking of what she wants to cook. After getting over of her previous actions, she shouted. "Hao, would you like some steak instead? or roasted pork?" Zhihao heard her question as he replied: "Anything will do." "Un!" Shuan immediately took a big piece of meat from the freezer and placed it in a bowl. She placed the bowl on the sink as she filled it up with water, defrosting the frozen chunk of meat. Shuan took out some ingredients from the fridge, onion, garlic, black pepper, etc. She then got another bowl from the drying place. Squeezing a lemonade in it as she added soy sauce and vinegar, she then sprinkled a pinch of salt and added two spoons of sugar. After placing the ingredients, she took a pot from the cabinet as she filled it up with water she then opened the stove as she placed the pot with water to make it boil first. She then stirred the ingredients she had prepared earlier. After a while, she then prepared the garlic and onions, dicing it to little pieces as she placed it on the chopping board. Shuan then picked up the semi-frozen meat and dumped it on the boiling pot. Preparing for another work, she took a frying pan out of the cabinet and placed it on the stove. She opened the stove with the frying pan, put a tablespoon of olive oil. After a while, when the oil is in a good temperature, Shuan placed the diced onions and garlic together. She sauteed them on the frying pan as she prepared in putting the mix she did earlier with the lemon and soy sauce. After a while, she poured the sauce she did in the frying pan, mixing it together. "SHIIIIIIIIIISHHH" A crispy sound was heard as the frying pan sizzled, a very strong aroma of flavors floated in the air. Arriving at Zhihao''s nose, Zhihao smiled as he could already tell that it would taste good. Shuan then stirred the frying pan, not letting anything gets burned, she then added the black pepper and laurel leaves. The Laurel leaves made a really great aroma after it was in. Shuan left the stove for a bit as she took a tablespoon of cornstarch and placed it in a bowl, she then mixed it with water so that when she placed it in the frying pan, it wouldn''t become solid. Shuan stirred the cornstarch with water until it has turned into a single liquid. Shuan poured it at the frying pan, as soon as she did, the temperature of the frying pan immediately calmed down. Shuan stepped out of the kitchen as she poured another two glasses of juice and brought it to Zhihao. "Another one?" Zhihao nodded as he accepted the juice. Then, when Shuan was about to steal another kiss, Zhihao held her neck and immediately kissed her lips. Shuan blushed immediately as she returned to the kitchen and spoke. "Bully! Meanie!" Shuan, smiling in the kitchen as she turned the heat from high to low. After a few minutes, the water in the frying pan had receded as she took it out of the stove and transferred it into another bowl. Shuan poked some holes to the meat as she walked back to the living room leaving the chunks of meat to soften for at least another 40 minutes. Shuan sat close to Zhihao and spoke: "I`m trying to soften the meat, so you could eat it deliciously." Zhihao nodded as they both watched the T.V together. Shuan then instead of leaving in Zhihao''s chest decided to lay in his legs. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke. "You look like a kid." Shuan chuckled as she continued watching the T.V. When 40 minutes had passed, Shuan went back to the kitchen as she removed the meat from the boiling water. She took out a brush and poured the sauce into the meat, the brush is for painting the whole meat without leaving any blindspot un-sauced. She then placed the meat in the oven for 10 minutes. After the 10 minutes, she would then take out the meat and paint it all again with the sauce, before placing it for another ten minutes. When the dish is done, Shuan sprinkled it with diced up celery and brought it towards Zhihao. Zhihao can already smell the luxurious aroma of flames when Shuan is bringing it, making him hungry. Shuan placed the meat in the living room table and spoke. "Let''s eat." Zhihao nodded as he took the knife and chopstick. The chunk of meat has a golden brown color, with a lot of dry parts outside. Zhihao then removed a part of the outer layer as a noise echoed. "Crrk!" The crispiness of the meat can be heard just by the chopstick removing the skin, then the meat juice can be seen crawling out of the meat. Shuan and Zhihao ate the delicious meal together as they enjoyed watching the Chinese drama. ... A Man and a Woman have arrived outside a cave in the middle of the continent. It is Ning''er and Mo Ying. Mo Ying looked at Ning''er and spoke. "My Lady, I felt that we should report it. Ning''er heard Mo Ying but then ignored it, she''s looking at the cave with extreme fear, she could feel a very strong energy coming out of it. But she knows nothing if its either evil energy or good. Ning''er equipped everything that Zhihao had given her as she walked inside. Mo Ying followed behind, prepared to save Ning''er once something happened. The more she enters, the stronger the power it felt. Ning''er frowned as she spoke. "This power... is so much stronger than Zhihao''s, even stronger than that Bugal..." With this, Ning''er wanted to flee, but if she did, it might endanger them in the future. If its something she could deal with right now, It will benefit them a lot. Ning''er walked further inside as Mo Ying followed. Chapter 191 His Name is... Ning''er and Mo Ying continued on their path. The cave went in was the same as the one that Zhihao had gone into. But something is different. When Zhihao brought Amro out of the cave, the cave went back to its original size. But now, it seemed to have returned to becoming big again, but this time, its only half of its size from Amro''s power. Which means, there''s a being inside that is making the cave expand, faster than how Amro had done it before. Someone stronger than Amro is lurking inside the Caves. Ning''er and Mo Ying both continued as they walked inside, the both of them are on full alert. After a while, Mo Ying spoke. "My Lady, I think we should return now." Ning''er then looked at Mo Ying, but what she saw is extremely shocking, Mo Ying is kneeling as his skin is being solidified. Mo Ying has frostbite all over his body. Ning''er immediately pushed Mo Ying back with her power, sending him a few hundred meters away. Mo Ying circulated the energy as he tried to fight the cold energy driving it out of his body. Ning''er looked at Mo Ying and spoke: "Return and report what happened, I`ll come back once I`ve figured something." Mo Ying frowned, but after a while, he nodded, he couldn''t do anything if he sticks around, the best thing to do is report to Shen Xiao and Verushka immediately. "Yes, My Lady." Ning''er nodded as she continued to walk forward. After a while, she had now felt the cold energy entering her body too. Ning''er summoned all of her energy as she protected herself, she then dashed forward, thinking that the longer she''ll be there, the harsher it would be. After an hour, Ning''er finally arrived at the end, unlike with Zhihao, there is only a single tunnel. The whole cave looked like a snow cave, a cave made with ice, with a lot of sharp and deadly pointed ice in the ceiling. Ning''er with her spiritual energy growing thinner can make two choices, to gamble everything and return, or proceed. If she returns now, she might lose all of her Spiritual energy half way and run the other half. Ning''er gritted her teeth as she entered further, to the only entrance. After entering, Ning''er was shocked, there''s no cold energy here, instead, it felt quite good, the best temperature to live. Ning''er can see a lot of flowers growing, and grasses too, there are even trees inside. Ning''er then sat as she tried to gather Spiritual Energy. After regaining every Spiritual Energy she missed, Ning''er walked forward, and the closer she gets, the more green life can be seen. After a while, Ning''er saw the exit and rushed. A bright light assaulted Ning''er''s sight as she closed her eyes and tried to block it with her hands. Then after getting used to the light, Ning''er was shocked at what she''s seeing. It feels like she''s seeing a different world, a world full of life and greens, a rainbow, a fountain, a stretch of forest, rivers... its like she''s seeing an oasis. But after that, out of nowhere, a voice as gentle and feminine, like listening to a goddess'' words sounded. "So... someone really came." Hearing this, Ning''er searched everywhere, trying to find where the voice came from. The voice then sounded again. "You won''t be able to find me, even if you searched all over." Ning''er frowned as she stop searching and replied. "Who are you?" "Me? I am no one, just someone searching for a certain somebody." Ning''er then asked again. "Are you... going to harm our World?" The voice seemed to have paused for a bit before continuing. "Should I?" After speaking, a gust of extreme power surged forth as it assaulted Ning''er. The scenery changed from the Harmonious nature in broad daylight into a grim and dark place. Everything is the same, but the lights went out as power surged from all directions. Ning''er was immediately pushed down to the ground, unable to fight the power. ''Such... power... another invader?'' Thinking like this, Ning''er shuddered. Then the voice spoke again. "Or should I not?" After speaking, the voice retracted her power and returned everything back to normal. Ning''er stood up as she asked. "What do you want to do with our world?" "I told you, I am finding a certain person." Ning''er then frowned as she asked. "Who is it that you are looking for? So long as you promise to not destroy our world, I`ll help you." The voice chuckles as she replied. "I want you to find my husband, he''s been missing for a while now." Ning''er was bewildered, but after a while asked again. "Is there anything I can have to know who he is? how does he look? and what type of person he is. how long has he been missing for?" The voice stopped for a bit as she replied. "He has been missing for a while now, for about 500 million years, he suddenly vanished from the God''s realm, together with his brother." Pausing for a bit, the voice continued. "Even his disciples don''t know where is he, but I felt his power towards this direction, and when I reached your World, I saw his power, circling around this planet of yours, which is why I have decided to lurk here for a few million years, he might come back." Ning''er was puzzled at her description before asking. "What''s his name? I might be able to help." The voice chuckled as she replied. "He is a God, One of the strongest God that had appeared in our Realm, The God''s Realm, his name..." Ning''er waited for a while, waiting for the name to come. The one speaking seemed to be emotional, drowned by her own feelings. Then, out of nowhere, in front of Ning''er, a silhouette appeared, flying in the sky as she closed on Ning'' er. An elegant, pristine beauty, a body of perfection, dark blue eyes that could alure any man, long and beautiful blue hair that reaches up to her feet, and a face so beautiful, that both men and women would fall in love with. The woman then spoke. "His name... is Arthariaz." Chapter 192 Gods Bond, Soul Drive Hearing this name, Ning''er pondered for a while, she hadn''t heard of such a name before, she kept searching for any clues she might''ve heard somewhere within the Empire. Then, when she is deeply in her thought, the lady smiled as she spoke. "Did you know, you wouldn''t be able to get here even if you have reached God Realm cultivation?" Ning''er looked at the Lady in bewilderment. The Lady smiled as she looked at the armors that Ning''er is wearing, her lips started to curve upward as a very alluring smile formed, she then continued. "I would''ve killed you if it weren''t for something I found familiar in you." Ning''er frowned as she asked: "Familiar with me? What do you mean?" The Lady pointed at the armor Ning''er is wearing as she continued. "Those armors, were the one I wore, the first one I received from Arthariaz when we met, the armor I equipped into the grand chaotic battle, hundreds of millions of years ago." When Ning''er heard this, she was shocked, she looked at the armor as she replied. "I received it from my Husband, and I doubt it will look like this if it is a hundred million years old armor." The Lady chuckled as she spoke. "Those were the ones made by Arthariaz for me to wear, I doubt it that you could comprehend the type of materials he had used in making it." The Lady then realized something, the environment started to shake as the clouds turned black. "Who is your husband?" Ning''er realized something that is what the lady says is true, then, is Zhihao her husband? but hundreds of millions of years ago definitely is something impossible, unless Zhihao went into reincarnation. Ning''er then shook her head as she replied: "My Husband''s name is Zhihao, Zhong Zhihao, aged 24, the Young Master of the Zhong Clan." The Lady thought of the same thing as Ning''er, maybe Arthariaz had reincarnated into a new person, but if Arthariaz reincarnated, who killed him? one of the Mightiest Gods in the God Realm. She then introduced herself: "I am, Mariandra Riverdry, The Goddess of Ice, I wish to confirm something, I want to see your Husband to make clear things out of something." Ning''er doesn''t want to agree at first, but something is bugging her now. If what Mariandra had spoken is true, then that explains a lot of things on how Zhihao had acquired the Godly items he had been bringing out in a massive quantity. Ning''er nodded as she spoke. "Okay, but my husband isn''t in this World right now, so you should wait first." Mariandra frowned, her husband isn''t in this World? then, how come a cultivator that haven''t reached Godhood actually cross planets? the only way is to play out of the World itself, and he needs to be at least in the Demi-God''s Realm pinnacle to do that. Mariandra asked Ning''er: "Where is he? and how can he go out of your World? and tell me his cultivation, if you answer my questions to my satisfactory, I could make you see your husband now." Hearing this, Ning''er became excited as she nodded and spoke. "Deal! but you`ll have to bring his other wives too, I treat them like Sisters, so I wish you would do no harm to them." Mariandra chuckled as she nodded, she then took a physical form as she wore a very graceful clothing with a veil in her face, covering her very attractive and charming face. She then asked. "I`m going inside your body now, I`ll stay in your mind." Ning''er frowned as she asked. "Why?" Mariandra casually replied. "I`ll enhance your powers, up to God Realm, lower stage, this is called SoulBond." Hearing this, Ning''er is still hesitant, but wanted to see Zhihao again, she nodded. Mariandra then entered Ning''er''s body as she spoke. "Focus your energy into your whole body, circle it around all of your veins as you visualize the power I had shown you before." Ning''er nodded as she tried to do what Mariandra had instructed. After successfully doing it, Mariandra smiled, she then went in Ning''er''s palm as she spoke. "Now, let my Soul enter your body through your heart and shout ''Soul Drive'' and let my Soul enter your body, not your mind." Ning''er still a little bit hesitant did what Mariandra had said. "Soul Drive!" A Surge of powerful Heavenly Energy entered Ning''er''s body as she vomitted a mouthful of blood. Her body started to brighten as the power started to merge with hers. Mariandra then floated in Ning''er''s shoulder and spoke. "Such great powers, right?" Ning''er looked at Mariandra as she nodded, if she had this power before, maybe Zhihao wouldn''t have been gone after the War had ended. Mariandra can feel the sorrow in Ning''er''s heart as she sighed. She could cope well with how Ning''er is feeling right now, she had felt it for millions of years. Mariandra then held hopes in her heart, maybe she could actually mix well with Arthariaz''s new wives if this Zhihao is really Arthariaz. She then spoke. "Let''s go now." Ning''er nodded as she flew out of the cave, and in just about a minute, what took her hours before actually ended, like in a blink of an eye. Ning''er smiled as she immediately dashed towards the Empire. After just a few more minutes, Ning''er arrived at Verushka and Xiao''er''s location. Both of them were shocked, at first, they thought it is a godly enemy that is approaching with a massive power inside their body but seeing Ning''er with the strength that might''ve surpassed the Previous Zhihao, they were shocked. Such overwhelming power, It is not Spiritual Energy, but something more pure, and so much greater. Verushka looked at Ning''er and asked. "What happened to you?" Ning''er smiled as she shook her head and replied. "I`ll tell you later, we need to do something first." Verushka and Xiao''er was bewildered in what Ning''er is saying but then asked. "What do you mean?" Then, A silhouette appeared on Ning''er''s shoulder as she replied. "We are going to find our Husband." Chapter 193 Those Are... Ning''er looked at them with excitement in her eyes. Verushka then spoke. "Mo Ying returned a few hours ago, he''s in extreme pain." Hearing this, Ning''er''s excitement immediately vanished. "Where is he? is there no one that can treat him?" Verushka shook her head as she replied: "No, we tried all of the pills in our storage, Mo Ying is our husband''s second Direct Disciple, it would be bad if something happens to him." Ning''er immediately nodded as she spoke: "Lead the way, maybe we can do something about it." Verushka and Xiao''er nodded as they flew in the sky. After a few seconds, they finally arrived at where Mo Ying is staying. Half of Mo Ying''s body is already in deep freeze, he is not even shaking as he is now numb to all sorts of things, there are at least eight doctors checking his state, trying to cure him, as a lot of flames around Mo Ying is trying to prevent the ice from swallowing Mo Ying whole. Ning''er was shocked, is it because of the cave''s freezing aura before? She then looked at Mariandry and asked. "Is this your power?" Mariandra is currently on her Spirit God form, hence she could only move, but not speak, she nodded in confirming. Ning''er then asked: "Can you cure him then?" Mariandra nodded again as she poured her power out, trying to grab the little Heavenly Energy in Mo Ying''s body. Mo Ying''s frozen body parts immediately went back to normal as the Heavenly Energy returned to Mariandra''s hand as it entered her body. Witnessing such everyone was shock, everyone tried so hard to prevent it from spreading, but they saw Ning''er standing there without even moving, but she then cured it. Only Verushka and Xiao''er had seen what actually happened, Only Mythical Realm lower stage and above can see the Spirit God form in Ning''er''s shoulder. After a few seconds, Mo Ying woke up as he looked at the crowd gathering around him, realizing what happened, Mo Ying stood up as she bowed and spoke. "Empresses, thank you for saving this weak nimble one." Ning''er nodded and followed up. "The three of us with our Son will go out for a few days, I don''t know when will we return, but you will go and take over and guard the Empire." Hearing this, Mo Ying nodded as he replied. "Yes!" Ning''er nodded as she looked at Verushka and Xiao''er before speaking. "Let''s go to our children, we will bring them too." The three of them nodded as they flew towards the Floating Fortress. The three of them arrived as they called. "Baichen, Jingyi, Hilary." After just a few seconds, three silhouettes appeared in front of them. Baichen (8) Heavenly Establishment Realm Pinnacle stage. Jingyi (8) Heavenly Establishment Realm Pinnacle stage. Hilary (6) Divine Origin Realm Lower stage. "Yes, Mothers?" The three of them asked together. Ning''er smiled at them as she spoke: "We''re going to find your Father, do you three want to come?" The three of them hearing this became extremely excited as they nodded continuously and replied. "Yes!" "Yes!" "Yesh!" Verushka, Xiao''er, and Ning''er smiled as they nodded. Ning''er then looked at Mariandra and asked: "How do we start?" Mariandra entered Ning''er''s body as she spoke. "I`ll make a Dimensional Scar, but before I do, I would need you all to think of him, his aura, features, everything that you had known him for." The three of them nodded as they closed their eyes, visualizing Zhihao''s figure, his demeanor, everything about him. When they started to remember everything about Zhihao that they knew, all sorts of expression appeared in their faces, happiness, satisfaction, relieved, sad, heartache. Then, when Mariandra is about to speak, she saw the three of them wept as the tears flowed down from their cheeks. Mariandra felt the same, even though Arthariaz had been missing for millions of years, every night, she would cry herself to sleep, making her Realm, the coldest place in the God''s Realm. Even Gods couldn''t enter without her permission, much less ordinary people. Mariandra smiled as she approved of them if ever Zhihao is really Arthariaz. Then when Mariandra felt that is time, she summoned a Dimensional Scar within the Air, four times as big as Zhihao had used. She then spoke to Ning''er. "If you enter there, you`ll immediately go to the World where your husband is currently in." Ning''er nodded as she spoke to Verushka and the others. "Zhihao is in the World beyond this Dimensional Scar, we will finally be able to see him again." All of them smiled as they nodded, picking up their child, they held hands as they walked towards the Scar. Just right after they walked in, a bright light assaulted their vision, all of them immediately shielded their Child''s eyes as they closed theirs. When they got used to the light, they opened their eyes little by little. What they witnessed were breathtaking for them, they can see mountains made of stones scraping the sky, horseless carriage, metal birds, and more. They opened their eyes widely at such a scene. Then Baichen spoke. "Mom, it stinks here, the air is bad." Ning''er and the rest nodded as they moved away from the carriageless horse that seemed to be the main reason for the foul smell coming from the air. The three of them walked as they tried to find some clue. Due to the Goddess bringing them here, their cultivation wasn''t locked. As they walk with no location to go, the people them were shocked and started to chat amongst themselves. "Is that a Cosplayer?" "Woah, they look extremely great!" "Such a high-quality work." "Wow, are they an Idol or something? the three of them look so great!" "A real-life gothic lolita cosplay!" "Oh my God!" They immediately took out their phone as they took some pictures of the three. Seeing this, the three were shocked. Verushka looked at them as she spoke. "Those... Those are... Those are the Boxed Treasures that Hao''er had given us!" _____________________________ I Made a Ying Mai my new cover for the month! I hope you guys like it. Chapter 194 Reunion of the Gods Seeing the people starting to surround them, they immediately walked quickly, trying to remove all of the attention from them. When they reached an alley, they immediately flew up to the roof of a building. And just when they are about to land, they felt a very powerful pressure suppressing them, a tidal wave of heavenly energy trying to devour them. Mariandra immediately shivered as she called out. "Arthariaz!" Ning''er looked at her shoulder as she saw Mariandra trembling in both excitement and fear. Mariandra is doubtful if Arthariaz could actually remember her, it has been more than millions of years after all, and the power that suppressed her definitely came from the Man she loved the most. Mariandra then pushed her way out of Ning''er''s body as she protected them and shouted once more. "Arthariaz! Get out here now!" The force then powered up some more, trying to push her out of the Earth. Mariandra gritted her teeth as she summoned all of the power in her and screamed. "Don''t play with me! even if I die, I will not leave! I definitely won''t leave unless you show and explain yourself!" The force kept pressuring her, the power that''s pressing her is too great, she only has 30% of her original power as it is only her clone, she separated her power into four, trying to find Arthariaz in all parts of the Realms. And Unlike Arthariaz, Mariandra is only a higher tier, while Arthariaz, had almost reached the Epitome of the Gods. If the both of them fought, Arthariaz would only need to use 10% of his power to deal with Mariandra''s full power. Mariandra, couldn''t stand the pressure anymore as she fell from the sky and landed on the roof with blood in her mouth, tears immediately ran out of her eyes as she spoke. "Why... I want to know why you left me... why''d you suddenly vanished..." The pressure immediately stopped, as a silhouette appeared out of nowhere. A handsome man, flew from their direction as he looked at Mariandra and spoke. "Why''d you have to find me... you should''ve stayed in your realm." Mariandra looked up and saw him, the color in her eyes returned as she replied: "So... you really are here, why did you leave me? why did you leave the God''s Realm?" Arthariaz looked at her as he sighed. "I had died, millions of years ago." Mariandra couldn''t believe what she''s hearing as she asked. "What happened? who killed you? which titan was it?" Arthariaz sighed yet again, he then retold her of what had happened that time. After a few minutes, Mariandra was shocked as she couldn''t believe something like that actually happened. "Your Brother... had betrayed you? was it because of... of that?" Arthariaz nodded in confirmation then continued. "I wish, for you to help me in my plan, I want to destroy my Brother''s scheme, I will regain my body, but that is for the later years, I don''t know when, but I`ll be able to reconstruct my body to destroy their ploy, but we need to make to have a back up plan." Arthariaz then told Mariandra all of what he wants to do. Mariandra nodded as she replied. "Then, I`ll try to make them stronger, this three, I`ll try to make them reach the Pinnacle of Godhood in the shortest amount of time." Arthariaz smiled as he nodded. Mariandra then asked: "What about this three and their children, they wanted to see their Husband." "Zhihao will return to the World I designated him to in about four hours, but we could reunite them for a short time." Mariandra nodded, she knew the pain of having lost your loved ones so she wanted to at least help Zhihao''s wife reunite with him, even if it is for a few hours. Mariandra then looked at them as she spoke. "I`ll turn you all invisible, Arthariaz told me that this World is ruled by Mortals, and beings with powers are treated as threats, we should go on a low profile." The three of them nodded. Then a powerful aura enveloped them as they ascended from the Air. They are currently in Japan, which is a far away place from Zhihao''s current location, but with Mariana''s power, they arrived in China for only about a minute. Arthariaz then vanished on top of Zhihao''s mansion as he spoke his last word. "Mariandra, this is where he lives, I wish that we could destroy the plot, please do your best until I remade my whole body." Mariandra nodded then she heard a sound transmission. ''Do not trust any God, do not tell them anything.'' Mariandra was shaken at first, but thinking that there might be some Gods harboring the same intentions as Arthariaz''s brother, she should take precaution. Mariandra then landed them near Zhihao''s mansion and removed their invisibility. She looked at the three of them and spoke. "Arthariaz said that we need to go to the gate by walking, we will ask the one guarding the Mansion for the owner''s permission to enter." Ning''er and the rest nodded. Mariandra took her physical form as she leads the way towards the gate, the three of them then followed walking as they put down their children to walk. Reaching the gates, Mariandra looked at Ning''er, making her talk to the guard. Ning''er looked at the Guard as she asked. "Hello, I`d like to meet with the owner of the Mansion, his name is Zhihao, Zhong Zhihao." The Guard looked at them as they became extremely shocked, four great beauties had come to ask for his employer, he then shook his head as he returned to Earth and spoke. "Okay, wait a minute, I`ll go and call inside." Ning''er nodded as added. "Please tell him that I`m Ning''er, with his children. The Guard nodded as he sighed and picked up his phone to call the Mansion. ... Zhihao was talking to his parents as Butler Ma approached him and whispered what had happened. Zhihao was shocked as he opened his eyes widely, he then ran out of the Mansion as he rushed towards the gates. Chapter 195 Reunion Earth, Zhihao''s Mansion. Zhihao immediately rushed towards the Gate without even properly dressing himself up. He became excited, hearing the name of the one that wanted to meet him. When he reached 15 meters away from the gate, he saw silhouettes of some people, and with the clothes, they are currently wearing, his eyes turned wet as tears flew down to his cheeks down to the ground. He immediately rushed towards them. "Ning''er, Verushka, Xiao''er! My children!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, all of them looked at Zhihao as they smiled, tears immediately gathered in their eyes as they rushed towards Zhihao with their children. A group hug commenced as they tightly hugged each other. Zhihao''s parents also followed as they thought that there are some problems that occurred. But when they finally arrived, they saw Zhihao, their son hugging a group of people that they haven''t seen before as he cried his eyes out. Ye Bing Bing looked at him as she silently spoke. "Hao''er, who are they?" Zhihao woke up from the atmosphere as he tidied himself up. He looked at all of them as he replied. "Let us all go inside first, we will talk about it there." All of them nodded as they walked towards the Mansion. Mariandra, seeing that no one is looking transformed into her Spiritual Body and entered Ning''er''s mind. The Guard has a poker face as he spoke: "Well... this is awkward." The Guard then closed the gates as he went back and read the e-book on his phone with the title "Supreme Martial System" ... When all of them finally reached the Guest Room, Zhihao spoke. "Please have a seat first, I need to clarify something to them." All of them nodded as they sat on the chairs and couch. Zhihao then looked at his parents and spoke: "Mom, Dad, I need to talk to them in private, I`ll go and make a barrier, you don''t need to go out." After speaking, Zhihao configured the system to provide a Sound Proof air to prevent any words from leaking out. *Ding!* =Orders confirmed, making a sound barrier for the seven of you. After the notification, a bubble like thingy appeared out of thin air as it wrapped Zhihao and his Wives together with their children. Zhihao then looked at them as he spoke. "All of you, I want to tell you something." Ning''er and the rest nodded, they don''t know what it is, but Zhihao is extremely serious. Zhihao then started: "The original owner of this body has already died, and I`m originally from this World, I was reborn and was brought to you by a certain person." Hearing this, all of them became shocked, speechless, not knowing what to reply. Zhihao continued: "It was the time before Ning''er and I was married, three days before." Ning''er''s expression immediately lightened up, but there is still something inside her heart that is bothering her, but Zhihao''s following words "If... you want to leave me, I`ll accept your decision, I wasn''t the one who was meant to be married to you all, I am just a substitute, something like this, I know very well and..." Ning''er immediately stopped Zhihao from speaking as she held her hand to his mouth, blocking his following words. Ning''er herself didn''t know what happened, but her hands moved unconsciously, she doesn''t want to hear the next words that Zhihao will say. "Hao''er, I..." Not knowing what to say, she couldn''t follow it up anymore. Verushka then intervened. "For me, it is no big deal, you are the Husband I know, and the one I married to, I could barely careless of who the person before was in your body." Pausing for a bit, she blushed as she continued: "Well, the one I fell in love with was you, not the original owner of your body, so stop making excuses to have some new pair of wives now." Hearing Verushka''s words, both Ning''er and Xiao''er woke up from their condition and realized something. The both of them didn''t even meet the first owner of Zhihao''s body, but, they met the current him that''s living in it. Ning''er smiled as that something in her heart vanished, she and Xiao''er slowly accepted the fact they are married to Zhong Zhihao, but the owner of the body is different. Ning''er replied: "Hao''er, I don''t care anymore, I think, I know why I suddenly stopped you from speaking." "It is because you were the one that I loved and not the previous owner of your body." Xiao''er smiled as she nodded and replied: "Yes, and if it wasn''t you, Me and Sis Veru might not have ever loved and cared about you, we might''ve also died from those creatures that attacked our World." Zhihao smiled as he bowed. "Thank you, for accepting me." The three of them nodded as they smiled and replied simultaneously. "And thank you for loving us, giving us so much care equally." Their children, Hilary, Jingyi, and Baichen looked at them as they asked. "So... Daddy is not Daddy but he is Daddy?" "Is Dad not Dad?" "No! Dadwe is Dadwe! He is ow Dawd! Why you makwing nownshense." The four of them smiled as they hugged each other. Zhihao then released the soundproof as he looked at his Family and spoke. "Mom, Dad, this is my Wives, from the other World." Hearing his Words, both Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong was shocked speechless. Zhihao sighed as he shook his head, he couldn''t possibly think that his parents would accept his wives immediately, after all, the laws in this World is that there could only be a single wife, but what shocked him the most is what followed. Zhilong looked at the tiny little children and asked: "They are my Grandsons and Grand Daughter?" Ye Bing Bing cried tears as she asked: "We are Grandparents?" The both of them already accepted that their Son is from another World, what is there to be shocked about, especially if they had already wanted some grandchildren before. Zhihao chuckled as he nodded and replied: "That''s right." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ye Bing Bing spoke: "Ahh, come here children, come here." Hearing Ye Bing Bing''s words, Hilary, Baichen, and Jingyi looked at their Father, not knowing what''s happening. Hilary then asked: "Dawdy, who ish they?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied: "They are your Grandpa and Grandma." "Weally?" Zhihao nodded as he smiled and replied: "Yes." Hilary was the first one to looked at them and ran as she jumped to Ye Bing Bing and spoke. "Gwannwe!" Jingyi and Baichen followed too as they ran and hugged Zhilong. "Grandpa!" "One more Grandpa and Grandma! Yey!" Zhihao and his wives laughed as they witnessed what happened. The Reunion of Zhihao''s original Family and his current ones was something that Zhihao had always dreamed of, tears in his eyes formed as he nodded in satisfaction. Ning''er, Verushka, and Xiao''er stood beside him as they smiled. Chapter 196 No Title Zhihao has a little over three hours left on Earth, he needed to make the most out of it before he would return to the Sword and Magic Realm. He suddenly thought of something as he smiled and looked at his children. "Want to do something fun? Jingyi, Baichen, Hilary?" The three of them nodded as they replied. "Yes!" "Yes!" "Yesh!" Lu Fan smiled as he nodded and continued: "Come with me, Mom, Dad, I`ll be bringing them to the Mall to have fun." Ye Bing Bing and Zhilong nodded as they smiled. Lu Fan then remembered something as he walked towards the garage with his Family. Lu Fan smiled as he contacted someone. "Shuan, are you free? Ning''er and the rest are with me, I`ll come and pick you up if you are free." Zheng Shuan smiled as she remembered Zhihao''s wives and replied. "Okay! I`ll wait for you in the studio." Zhihao hangs up the phone as he looked at his Wives and spoke. "We are getting Shuan, the one that thought you about phones." Then remembering something as he looked at them, he sighed and spoke. "We need to change your clothes'' appearance, it would be too weird." All of them looked at their clothes as they felt bewildered. Zhihao then ordered the system. ''Change their clothe''s appearance, make it something that would fit well with them here on Earth.'' *Ding!* =Order received... Loading... Checking Fashion on the internet... Match Found... Applying Fashion. Just right after that, Ning''er and the other''s clothes transformed into one of those in that''s really in this season. Zhihao smiled as he nodded, he then looked at Verushka''s clothes in bewilderment. "Why didn''t your clothes change?" Verushka looked at her clothes, and yes, they haven''t changed, it is still the same. Zhihao then asked the system: ''Why didn''t you change her clothes?'' *Ding!* =The most suitable clothes for her based on the Internet search 90% picked "Gothic Lolita" Zhihao facepalmed as he sighed, this World is really into clothing that they see on the Internet. Zhihao then looked at them as he spoke. "Let''s go." Everyone nodded but Verushka asked. "What about my clothes? I want to wear something that looks the same as them." Zhihao sighed as he thought. ''System, give her something else, something that would look good on her.'' *Ding!* =Order confirmed. Verushka''s clothes changed as they became a casual middle schooler''s wear. Zhihao felt pained yet again, what kind of categories are these! On the other hand, Verushka smiled as she spoke. "This is great! Hahahaha, It feels extremely great!" Zhihao sighed as he led them towards the garage. They all boarded the Car, then Ning''er asked Zhihao. "So, how far had you gone with Shuan''er? are we getting our fourth Sister?" Ning''er teased Zhihao as she chuckled. Zhihao drove his car as he replied: "Uhh... we''re currently engaged in this World." Verushka, Xiao''er, and Ning''er burst out with laughter as they held their stomach. "Hahahaha, I knew you wouldn''t leave a beautiful woman alone, well, I guess we got our fourth Sister." "Yep, definitely, this kind of leech is one that wishes to collect a lot of women." Xiao''er only chuckled as she nodded her head. Although there would be an additional, so long as she''s acceptable, they would permit it, Shuan helped them a lot, especially with new knowledge about their phone. But there''s also something, they liked how innocent and pure Shuan is, she doesn''t want to pretend or lie, nor force anyone, she''s exactly what they are missing in the group, one or two of such person is welcome to them. All of them then chatted as they took the sight in their memory, they want to cherish the memory with Zhihao, they would also like to share his burden, hearing the Story from Arthariaz, they already knew of what Zhihao will go through. They will be returning to their World later, but they will do their best as to not drag Zhihao down, supporting him with his great battle. ... Somewhere within another World. A being that has the same look as Bugal and Bagul when they were combined is kneeling on the floor with blood all over his body, he is too weak right now, he is glaring at someone, and that someone is sitting on his throne, unharmed, not even a scratch can be seen. That being is Mazadar, he is the Lord of both Bugal and Bagul, someone that has reached the power that can be compared to a God Realm lower stage cultivator, someone that stood at the Peak of the Mecha World. But right now, he is kneeling in defeat, he wanted to fight back but he couldn''t due to the power that is suppressing him, suppressing someone that has reached the same power with the weak Gods from the God''s domain. Mazadar looked at the one on the throne as he spoke. "I`ll kill you, even if I die, I`ll definitely kill you!" The one on the throne faced Mazadar as he asked: "How will you do that?" "If I escaped her, I`ll definitely have a chance, sooner or later, I will!" The one on the throne smiled as he nodded and replied: "Do you think, I`m as kind as the weakling that let you escaped millions of years ago?" Mazadar smiled as he forcefully tried to stand up and spoke. "So... you are from the God''s Realm, then I guess, killing you will be worth it, dragging a God down will definitely be a great boon!" After Mazadar spoke, he cast a self-destruction on his core, preparing to detonate it immediately. The one on the throne chuckled as he waved his hand. The self-destruction that Mazadar had made suddenly stopped as he returned back to his kneeling position like he had done nothing at all. Mazadar was shocked. ''What kind of power is this!'' The one on the throne then opened his eyes, three bright red lights shone from his face as the three eyes opened, staring at Mazadar like he is some sort of insect. "I am Chronos, The Supreme Titan of Time, You can choose two option, to serve the Titans and be one of our vassals in destroying the God Realm or you can die now." Hearing Chronos'' Words, Mazadar was shocked, he then contemplated for a bit before he asked. "What are the Titans?" Chronos smirked as he explained. "Titans are the Arch Enemy of the Gods Realm, we get our power from Darkness, while the Gods from Light." Mazadar looked at Chronos as he smiled and replied: "I will, but let my wish succeed at least when the time has come." Chronos chuckled as he replied: "You can kill the Gods after they are weakened, you can kill any God so long as you can, you can even beg us to spare a few Gods for you to torture, so, will you?" Mazadar was shocked, he was going to ask again but Chronos intervened. "I am the God of time, I can see the Future of you mere weakling." Mazadar smiled in realizing it, he then bowed as he spoke. "I will join your cause, and be one of the forces that will destroy the God''s Realm." Chronos smiled as he nodded and vanished without any track. He then left a message. "I`ll leave you with a thousand Titans from our Realm, although they are still on the Lower stage of the Titan Realm, they will gain back their strength in the years to come, just order them and continue to grow with them, I`ll give you some power when I return." Mazadar smiled as he nodded. Then out of nowhere, a lot of Titans has appeared outside Mazadar''s headquarters, He smiled as he looked at the Far Distance and spoke. "God''s Realm, HAHAHAHAHA I`ll be part of your demise, your doom is near!" _______ Author''s note. I`ll go on a hiatus, writing my novels on this website is too heartbreaking, informing us that Original Authors are trying their best to provide daily chapters even though we get sick, etc etc.. Yeah, we were touched... but reading the following shiits, I give up on this website. Out of all the Original Authors there, they only deemed three people they had a contract with as an Original Author, which makes us look shiity trying to do our best. So yeah, they support their contracted Authors, but what about us? who writes for free? a little bit of benefit wouldn''t heart, they could also limit it to top rankers, but I guess that''s too much right? I mean, how much money can they even get on a million views? etc. etc. I don''t really know, but I don''t want to find out. We''re not getting paid to post here, nor getting any spirit stones, power stones, etc, just free writing as WN benefits from views and stuff. Well, that''s just my bottom line, At least, they could''ve given us some inspiration, All I saw is, "Congrats to our Original Author, the Three of them deserves a Break, while the others are stupid, so let them rot there to die, Okay, let us support these three contracted authors! Banzai!" Now... I Give up, I`ll try to find another website where they would actually appreciate our hard work, I`ve already found a few websites that could give us a pay per view, but it is kind of hard to get in. Thanks for the continuous support everyone... I`m done... Well, I might write some chapters depending on my mood, but not as inspired as before. Thank you for your continued support everyone, I sincerely appreciated it. I`ll write my last 20 chapters as thanks to those people that had donated and go on with my Life, I had better things to do than provide profit for them while getting nothing, unappreciated work. For people that wishes to donate, you don''t need to, I appreciate the thought already, I`ll go back to working after this is done and dealt with, thank you so much. Chapter 197 No Title The first thing that Zhihao did is to drive towards Zheng Shuan''s company studio. After a few minutes of driving, they finally arrived, Shuan is already waiting outside the office with her face fully covered. Zhihao stood up as he opened the door and walked to her. A Man then almost bumped into Zhihao, the both of them reacted simultaneously as they evaded each other. Zhihao looked at the Man and bowed as he spoke: "Ahh, sorry, I almost bumped into you." The Man was shocked as he looked at Zhihao in a bewildered way and murmured. "A cultivator?" That man is Yi Long, he is just returning after bringing Rin back to the studio. he removed Rin''s other personality too, making Rin solidify her own mentality. He, like Zhihao, is also a person that was reincarnated, but he is a Supreme God before he got reincarnated as a Mortal in Earth, with lesser Heavenly Energy from a new planet like Earth, he is struggling his way to cultivate again. Zhihao, Shuan, and the rest heard of it, as a Cultivator, their senses are enhanced multiple times than that of a normal Human. Zhihao looked at Yi Long and asked: "What do you mean?" Yi Long shook his head, he only felt it slightly earlier, he might''ve just imagined it due to the flex of Zhihao''s muscles when the both of them evaded each other. "Nothing, I thought you are a Martial Artist, so I murmured a little, well, It is fate that we encountered each other, I`ll be going now." Yi Long then bowed in return as he took his leave. Zhihao pondered for a bit as he shook his head, he only has an hour or two to spend the day with all of them. Zhihao looked at Shuan as he spoke: "Let''s go." "Un!" Shuan replied as she approached the Car. Seeing Ning''er and the rest, she felt emotional as she hugged Ning''er. "Sisters, I missed you all so much!" All of them chuckled as they patted Shuan''s head. Verushka then spoke: "So, when are you going to get married to Hao? we could all get into fun together faster, the sooner the better." With Verushka''s teasing, Shuan blushed as she boarded the car. Hilary and Jingyi sat on Verushka and Xiao''er''s lap to make some space for Shuan. Xiao''er looked at Shuan who''s currently removing all of her disguise and asked. "Why is your face fully covered? is someone after your life?" Shuan shook her head as she blushed and explained. "I`m... a popular person on this World, although we don''t have powers, we have something like... how should I put it... umm... fame... I do something like... active, singing and such... to earn money..." Nodding their head as they understood Shuan''s explanation, they changed their topic as Zhihao drove to the Mall. ... After a while, they finally arrived at the Mall. Zhihao then looked at the four of them as he spoke. "I`ll take the Kids to enjoy, Shuan, you should go and enjoy yourself with the three of them." Zhihao wanted to enjoy the time together with Ning''er and the rest, but if he did, he would be in a pinch as the time is extremely limited. If he brought Ning''er and the rest together with the Kids, a day wouldn''t be enough time to finish everything. Understanding his intention, all four of them nodded, although they wanted to spend some time with Zhihao, they knew too well that he only has a few hours to spend together with them, they might be able to spend some time together later, so they want to at least let Zhihao and the kids to have some bonding time. Zhihao then brought the kids and spoke. "Today, I`ll treat you to something you haven''t experienced before." The three kids smiled as the glow in their eyes shone with excitement. Jingyi: "Yay!" Hilary: "A twip wit Daddeeeeh!" Baichen: "I want FOOD!!!" Zhihao chuckled as he looked at Ning''er and spoke: "We will meet here again, if you can return here, I`ll go and come back once every month." Ning''er and the rest chuckled as they nodded and made their way with Shuan leading them. ... The first thing that Zhihao did is ask his children. "Are you three hungry? want to eat something extremely delicious?" The three of them has this unexplainable hunger coming out of their eyes, hearing something like ''Extremely Delicious'' coming out of their powerful Dad''s mouth made them expectant to the food that he''ll introduce to them. The three of them repeatedly nodded as they replied. "Yes!" Zhihao smiled as he led the two of them into some place called "Dessert Palace" The four of them entered as Zhihao immediately went to the receptionist. He had always dreamed of going into one of this kind of establishment as a child, he can always see children being taken to someplace like this by their parents, making him extremely envious of such a thing. Zhihao smiled as at least he could bring his children here to eat and play. The three kids, Baichen, Jingyi, and Hilary were astounded at the multiple colored candies and displays inside. They immediately rushed towards the booth. They haven''t seen a market place that looks as great as this. Hilary immediately came back as she spoke. "Dawd! I want those things! the colorful thingsh!" Hilary dragged Zhihao''s clothes as she led him towards the Candy booth, pointing at everything she can see. Zhihao chuckled as he nodded and spoke to the clerk. "I`d like to buy everything in your stall, divide it into three please." Seeing this, both Jingyi and Baichen went towards Zhihao as they waited for their portion. The clerk was shocked, it is good that he''ll sell all of his goodies, he might even get a bonus, but eating this candies would definitely be bad for the Kids. Zhihao, on the other hand, thought otherwise, as a cultivator, his children would be immune to such things as preservatives, it will immediately disperse inside their body without any worries, with that, he could buy anything they want. Noticing that the clerk is concerned, Zhihao spoke. "Don''t worry, they won''t eat it in a single go, it is for a long travel." The clerk nodded as she called three of her friends to help in packing up everything. After a while, they finally finished wrapping everything, but when they handed it to Zhihao, they were having a realization, how could Zhihao take the six boxes. One of them immediately spoke: "Sir, please wait a moment, I`ll bring a cart here from the groceries." Zhihao smiled as he replied: "Thank you." He then looked at the Clerk and asked: "How much for it all?" The clerk smiled as she replied: "Sir, that''s a total of $2,120." Zhihao then pulled out his wallet and pretended to pull some money into it. Then a five thousand bill appeared inside as he handed it to the Clerk and spoke. "Okay, here''s the payment, you can keep the change." The clerk was astounded, such a big bonus, it would definitely be able to make them survive for a few weeks without a problem. The clerk bowed as she expressed herself. "Thank you, sir, it is definitely a great help!" Hilary then looked at her Dad as she spoke. "Dawdy, why we need to liwft eit up? we could do dish inshtead." Hilary then waved her hand as two of the boxes vanished and immediately went inside her Interspatial Ring. Baichen and Jingyi smiled as they also did the same. All of the six boxes vanished within just a mere second. The Clerks had their mouths closed but their eyes wide. They still had the same smile as before, the only difference is their eyes that is currently field with shock. Zhihao facepalmed as he didn''t know what to do. Hilary saw her Dad in a bad expression as she patted his shoulder and spoke. "Dawd, it ish okay, what ish the pwobwem?" Chapter 198 My Situation @@ Brgy. Tumana, Marikina City. Philippines. Flood.

Sincerely, OmnipotentDad@@ Chapter 199 Final Words Zhihao felt like he''s in a very difficult predicament right now, not knowing what to do after what his children had done. Looking at the shocked faces of the Clerks, Zhihao sighed. Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly thought of a stupid excuse. "Ah, this is the Magic I`m trying to teach them, Its a great way to pass time, a very believable illusion." Although a bit doubtful, the Clerks could only nod their head, that''s the most logical explanation that can tell them of what had just happened. Zhihao then handed a cheque worth a thousand dollar and spoke. "Please keep it a secret first, I want to surprise people on the Internet about it." The Clerks sighed as they nodded their head, but there''s still a question lingering in their head. ''Where did the boxes of candies go to?'' Though they wanted to ask, they already received the shut it up fee for it, and if they asked, the tip might be asked to be returned. With that in mind, they shook their head and fought the urge to ask the question. Zhihao bowed to them as he led his children somewhere else. The clerks looked at them as the other one asked. "That guy looked extremely familiar, have I seen him somewhere?" "I don''t know, but I`ll definitely go out with him if he''s a single father, he has this calming aura around him, I felt extremely satisfied just to be close to him, I wonder how it would feel when we''re both in bed together." The other one chuckled as she replied. "Can''t you see the faces of those kids? their Mother must be extremely gorgeous, that man would definitely not go out with you so give up." "Sigh... It is not bad to dream about it." "Huhuhu, well it is time to pack our things now, we''ve just started about an hour ago, we still have six more hours to spend, let''s go!" "Un!" ... Somewhere within the Mall. The four of them stopped in a chair as Zhihao spoke. "Don''t do those sort of things again, just act like how a mortal would, okay?" Both Baichen and Jingyi nodded, but Hilary shook her head as she asked. "Bawt whai?" "Just don''t, okay? all of the people living here are Mortals, the whole world is full of mortals, we can''t just casually bring out our powers, understand?" Hilary pouted as she looked down at the ground. Zhihao sighed, he''s imagining what sort of thing would he do if he was a kid with his parents, he smiled as he looked at Hilary and continued. "How about this, promise me that you won''t do anything like that again, and start acting like a Mortal in this World, and in return, I`ll buy you three whatever things you wanted, okay?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the three of them smiled as excitement can be seen in their eyes and nodded repeatedly. "Okay, let''s go." Zhihao carried Hilary on his shoulder as Baichen and Jingyi are both holding his hands as they walk. After a while, they arrived at a fast food restaurant and sat down. "I`ll take our orders first, wait for me to come back, okay?" The three children nodded their head repeatedly in confirmation. Zhihao smiled at them as he walked to the clerk, ordering some foods like hamburgers, spaghetti, hotdog sandwich, etc. All sorts of food he wanted to eat when he was a child, he wanted his children to taste it. Although it is bad for children, it is not for cultivators. After some time, Zhihao came back with all sorts of food in a tray with three waiters following him with their own trays that Zhihao had ordered. The three cute children first tasted the food, but after the taste, they were immediately mesmerized by the taste as they started to dig in. Zhihao looked at them with satisfaction. ... After a while, the four of them finished eating as they rested for a few minutes before heading out. Hilary looked at Zhihao wanted to ask something. Zhihao noticed it as he asked: "What is it?" Hilary shook her head and replied: "Latewr." Zhihao smiled as he nodded his head and brought them to the toy stores. Hilary, Baichen, and Jingyi almost emptied out the World of Happiness as they bought all of the things they wanted. This time, the three children didn''t suck it inside their Interspatial Ring and let the twenty men do the pushing of the carts. Seeing this, Zhihao sighed as he spoke to the three. "Let''s go and meet your Mom, it is about time we return." "Un!" The three children replied simultaneously. Zhihao then led the way towards the place that they will be meeting. Just after a few minutes, Zhihao and his kids finally arrived. Zhihao immediate saw the four of them and signed. They were carrying mobile phone paper bags, full of phone boxes inside. He already knew what they wanted to do with them. Zhihao sighed as they all walked to the parking lot, he then checked his time as he only has twenty minutes left. He looked at the staff that is pushing the carts and spoke. "This place is good, I`ll have someone pick it up later." After speaking, Zhihao handed a few paper bills to the staffs. They immediately smiled as they walked back inside the mall and spoke. "Thank you, sir!" Zhihao nodded, then Zheng Shuan saw the CCTV and immediately told them to hide away from the CCTV camera. After hiding the carts, they then placed all of the things they bought in the Interspatial Rings. Zhihao looked at Shuan as he spoke: "Shuan, bring them back to the Mansion, I only have a few minutes left before I return to the other World." Shuan nodded as the four of them hugged Zhihao, not forgetting to kiss him and leaving a few words. After that, the four of them went inside the Car. Then, Zhihao looked at his Kids as he hugged them tightly and spoke. "I`ll miss you all, but we will meet again after a few days, okay? so don''t be sad." His three kids sobbed as they nodded their head. "Un!" Then, Zhihao remembered something as he asked Hilary. "Hilary, what were you going to ask me again?" Just right after he spoke. Hilary, Baichen, and Jingyi''s face turned extremely cold as they looked at Zhihao in a serious manner. Zhihao was shocked at the change of expression his children had went into, but he shook his head and ignored those facts as he listened to them attentively. Baichen then started. "Father, didn''t you mention that... this World is full of Mortals?" Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Yes." After he replied, the ground under his feet started to crack open. Zhihao saw this as he sighed and returned his gaze at his children. But right after he looked, Zhihao was stunned as he could see their eyes shining in dark colors, Dark Violet, Dark Blue, and Dark Green. The three of them simultaneously spoke. "Father, the Man you almost bumped into, He is no Mortal." Zhihao opened his eyes widely, but before he could reply, he was sucked in by the void, unable to spew out the words he wanted to ask. When Zhihao vanished, the three of them returned to normal as they ran towards the car and boarded it with their Mothers. Chapter 200 No Title Zhihao came back to the Sword and Magic Realm (Fantasy Realm) with the shock of what he had heard and seen from his children before he left. Without even noticing it, his back was covered with sweat running down from his neck down to his bottom. It was a something that he hasn''t felt even with the face of death. Something called "Fear." Yes, Zhihao felt fear from three children with the age that haven''t reached ten years old, his own Sons and Daughter. He couldn''t think of anything, then a voice called out. "Master, you are back." Zhihao woke up from his daze as he looked at who it was that spoke, turning his gaze, he saw Ying Mai and Ma Dong standing behind him. He then shook his head trying to leave the matter to some other day, he then spoke. "What''s the has happened when I was gone?" Ma Dong immediately reported: "Master, we arrived just a few hours ago, we''ve already cleared half of the "Undead" that you''ve mentioned, and we left all those that seemed to be different from those ''Undead''." Zhihao nodded as in confirmation, he then asked. "How is the situation between the Human Race and the Demon Race?" This time, Ying Mai reported: "Master, there''s some signs of the Humans Race in this World that are getting stronger, it seemed like some seal had been opened after we finished half of the Undead, something like, Talents appearing from every corner, but they only have the same talent as the Sages of these lands, the one that you took under your wing Master." Zhihao nodded and confirmed his theory. The Titans are actually sucking the progress of a World to continue their growth, which means as soon as they landed in a place, they''ll halt every progress and take it as their own to regain their own powers. Zhihao frown, if this continues, a lot of World will be brought to chaos due to the halting of their development, some worlds might be destroyed because of this. Zhihao looked at the sky as he spoke. "We must do something before it gets too late." Although Ma Dong and Ying Mai couldn''t understand what''s going on in Zhihao''s mind, they nodded as all they do is believe his words, and Zhihao''s words to them are absolute. Then after a while, eight silhouettes appeared beside them and kneeled. "Master!" It is Roland''s party of eight, they had arrived after they felt a strong surge of energy. To the past day and hours that Zhihao was gone, they had built themselves and honed their skills to their limits, trying to break the cage that was once their capabilities, and with Ma Dong and Ying Mai''s lead, they had succeeded somehow, but their improvements are minuscule compared to the other three. Zhihao nodded at them as he asked. "We will now exterminate the rest of the Undead, and all of you eight will be the one to do it." Roland and the rest nodded in confirmation, everything that Zhihao is telling them to do is for their own benefit. They had already witnessed how strong the enemies were, and if Zhihao didn''t appear in their World, they would definitely have died, the Human Race will be lost forever, maybe their whole world too. Just for this outcome, they are already very grateful to them, vowing to follow Zhihao for the rest of their lives. Stephany then spoke. "Master, we''ve found a lot of people that have great abilities, some talents that might surpass us eight in the future." Zhihao then looked at Stephany as he replied. "All of you, we aren''t looking for people with talent that are bound to be a legendary figure, we are building people to be one." Hearing this, all of them smiled, yeah, with Zhihao''s power, authority, and knowledge, he can definitely make any people into powerful beings. All of them nodded as they stood up. Zhihao then ordered: "All of you shall disperse, divide yourself into four groups and eliminate the rest of the Undead." "Yes!" The eight of them nodded as they formed a group and dispersed immediately. Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong and Ying Mai as he continued. "We have to hurry in our progress." Ma Dong and Ying Mai can see the grim expression on Zhihao''s face, it is something that they haven''t seen since the fight with Bugal. Ying Mai then asked: "Why Master? has something come up?" Zhihao nodded his head and replied. "I don''t know how many, but the Titans... our enemies, might''ve done something similar to this world to other planets, they might''ve infested them too." Ma Dong frowned a little, maybe there are other Worlds that the enemies might''ve infested, but he didn''t think it would be much of a trouble if it is the same as this World. "Master, how many Worlds exactly had they infested?" Zhihao then looked at Ma Dong with a dire expression having that question been brought up and replied. "I have no idea, maybe ten, hundreds? no... maybe thousands? worst is millions, and the longer they lurk in these Worlds, the stronger they get, I don''t know what will happen if this continue, but one thing is for sure, chaos will rain down from all directions." Hearing Zhihao''s words, both Ma Dong and Ying Mai shivered, if that really happens, who could stop such chaos, Gods? They are already fighting the enemies of the Gods! Ying Mai looked at Zhihao who''s still trying to calm himself and asked. "Master, what do we do?" Zhihao smiled awkwardly as he replied: "You ask me... but who should I ask?" With Zhihao''s reply, they felt extremely hopeless, if their Master couldn''t do anything about it, how will they fight it out with the enemies. With no plans and countermeasures, they might as well give up. Zhihao then looked at them as he spoke: "We will fight it, no matter what, but we need to think of something first, let''s rest for today, we will continue this tomorrow." Ying Mai and Ma Dong sighed as they nodded and replied. "Yes Master." The both of them then vanished out of thin air, they would go and scout the area around them for security, they don''t want to have something disturb their Master while he is resting. Then, when the two of them were gone, a wooden spoon fell. Zhihao looked at where the sound came as he saw a figure. It was the elf that has no gender, Fei Xie. Zhihao smiled as he asked. "You heard?" Fei Xie nodded. "What you had talked about, there are other Worlds out there? other Worlds like ours?" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied. "Yeah, there are more, some bigger, great, and much more powerful, some are weaker, peaceful, and much smaller than this World, I have only gone into three Worlds, but I know there are more, much more Worlds out there." Fei Xie nodded and asked. "Are there really going to be chaos? enemies that are threatening to ruin the order and balance of nature?" Zhihao smiled as he nodded and replied. "Yeah, there are a lot of them, and they are more powerful than I am, a hundred, a thousand, maybe millions of times stronger than me." Zhihao chuckled after speaking, he isn''t being humble, but actually is stating a fact, just based on Arthariaz''s power, he is billions of miles away from reaching it, and that is the incomplete strength of Arthariaz. Fei Xie pondered for a bit, not knowing what to do, then just right ouf of nothing, Fei Xie looked at Zhihao full of resolution and spoke. "I know I`m not strong enough, I know I`m a weakling compared to you, but I can give you a helping hand, I`ll do anything to stop this chaos from happening, I want to aid your holy path and stop this from happening, please! Let me follow you!" Hearing this, Zhihao looked at Fei Xie with an expression of a poker face, not knowing what to reply to such a thing. ___________________ Author''s note part 2. Marc Lim.

Sincerely, OmnipotentDad. Chapter 201 No Title "Please let me follow you!" Due to the sudden request, Zhihao was speechless, not knowing what to do or what to say. Fei Xie looked at Zhihao with pleading eyes, noticing that he is not going to approve, Fei Xie immediately made a bow and kneeled. "Please, I want to help you fight the one that is destroying the balance." Zhihao sighed and replied. "Okay, you`ll be my sword maid... sword... Sword servant, you`ll be the one to carry my other weapons." Fei Xie smiled as she nodded. "Thank you! I`ll do my best to be of help to you my Lord." Zhihao sighed as he waved his hand. "You can go now, I will rest for today, don''t let anyone bother me... and thanks for letting us stay in your village." "Yes!" Fei Xie acted like a royal guard as she stood at the door of her own house. Zhihao sighed, he already cut off the feelings he had with Fei Xie, although he likes to pursue his dreams, he is not crazy enough to fall in love with someone that might become a male someday. With that thought, Zhihao entered the tree house and took a rest. ... Late night. Zhihao was in the middle of his dream or should I say a nightmare. Zhihao and the rest of his subordinates are in the middle of a vast land. There are people in each side slaughtering each other, shouting, screaming for their enemy''s heads. Zhihao was shocked as he kept looking around, he saw Ma Dong laying on the ground dead as Mo Ying is struggling to get up, but someone pierced a sword right through his chest. ''NO!!!!'' Zhihao wanted to scream, but there is no voice escaping his mouth, the bloodbath continued, there are millions and millions of beings gathering in this plain, killing and being killed. A never-ending struggle is in front of his eyes. Four beautiful women descended by his side as they spoke something with tears in their eyes. "*!@#&!@#" It was Verushka, Ning''er, Xiao''er, and Shuan. After speaking, they immediately rushed towards the enemy lines. Powerful clashes can be seen as the two forces clashed together. Zhihao tried to stop his wives but he couldn''t move, he then looked at himself and found that there are tens of swords, spears, and axe embedded in his body, making his body lose blood so much. A figure descended at his side as she spoke. "*!@#!&" It looked like Fei Xie, only much more beautiful than the current her. Fei Xie smiled as she kissed Zhihao on his cheek and followed Ning''er''s group to aid them. Thousands and thousands of sword emerged out of her body as she used those weapons to kill a lot of the enemy. Then, at the sky, Zhihao saw a phoenix bursting with bright red flames, annihilating all of the foes that it reached. It was Ying Mai, she was then shot at by a piercing power out of nowhere, penetrating her body immediately. Ying Mai tried to hold on but couldn''t as the enemies followed up. Zhihao was speechless, all of the people he knew were so strong in this place, what is happening here. Zhihao then looked behind, he was shocked, there are fallen enemies from the path that he had carved to get here. Another figure descended with blood in her lips dropping, It was Yi Yan, she smiled at Zhihao and nodded before following Ning''er''s group and carved a path of death at her wake. Then, a lot of people with face paid their respect to Zhihao as they followed Yi Yan''s lead, they charged immediately as they burst out with powers unimaginable to him. ... After a while, their group finally took a big hit as they lost their morale and started to back off, then a figure descended out of nowhere with eight beings behind him. That figure smiled at them as he shouted. "!@#!@#^!@#!%@#!!!!!!!!!!!!" The eight beings charged as they aimed at Ning''er and Yi Yan''s group, but what was thought to be a clash became a slaughter, one by one, Zhihao''s side died, with no room to escape or breathe. They were killed mercilessly. Ning''er looked at him from the distance as she smiled and vanished, Verushka, Xiao''er, and Shuan followed immediately as they vanished, death without any trace. Zhihao wanted to cry, this is something that he definitely doesn''t want to happen. His direct disciples then took his body as they escaped. The figure leading the eight beings looked at Zhihao as he smiled and spoke. "YOU... CAN NOT... CHANGE... ANYTHING!" Zhihao woke up immediately after hearing those words, he was full of sweat as all of the hair in his body stood up, Zhihao is shivering, then, he remembered something, he saw three figures behind that being, only observing. He ignored it as it was just a dream, shaking his head and waking up from his daze, he looked outside and saw that it is already morning. Zhihao only thought of one thing. "Titans." _____ Author''s first thought. I wanted to "He woke up as he saw a ceiling, something extremely familiar to him, he then made a sudden realization as he woke up and shouted." "I turned back to the past! the first day I was in the cultivation World!" Well, that would be awesome, but you all would definitely hate that, so I didn''t do that... Cheers! Here''s another chapter, a chapter closer to ending volume 2! Have a good read guys, sorry it was short, but I can''t think of anything more, and I`m using my Phone to do this Chapter. Chapter 202 Author Betrays the Readers. Goodbye Everyone, I`ll stop now, and sorry for the donations! _____________ Waking up from his sleep, Zhihao pondered for hours, not knowing what to do. The dream that he had seen might really come true, such a thing would end everything, peace, balance, and order. After a while, Zhihao opened his eyes and smiled. "I`ll leave the future, to the future me, I`ll do what I today, and that is what matters first." Zhihao stood up as he went out of the Tree House. Just when he got out, he was shocked as he saw a person standing still at the doorway. It was Fei Xie, she''s been motionless ever since he left her there, with the exact same pause as before. Fei Xie saw Zhihao and immediately saluted in an elvish way. "My Lord, did you have a good rest? and like you ordered, nobody disturbed your rest." Zhihao facepalmed, this person is an extremely serious type, he doesn''t want to have a conversation with such people. "Ah, Yes, I did..." Zhihao then remembered his dream, he saw Fei Xia there, a beautiful woman with overwhelming powers. ''Maybe... just maybe!'' Zhihao held Fei Xie''s shoulder and spoke. "You will be my Sword Maiden!" Hearing this, Fei Xie blushed a little and nodded, she immediately replied. "Yes, Lord! your order shall be my will!" Zhihao sighed, will he have to trouble himself with such a serious person daily? "Yes, uh, first, I`ll give you four swords, one of these swords were the ones I used when I had started to grow stronger." Zhihao handed the Nethersbane and three other swords to Fei Xie. Fei Xie was ecstatic, but then realized something and asked. "Lord, I''ve only used Scimitars before, I`m not good with weapons like these." Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Don''t worry, everything can be learned." Zhihao then scanned Fei Xie''s stats. Name: Fei Xie (Temporary) Age: 412 Level: 132 Race: Elf (Berserker Elf) Talent: Nature and Void Swordsmanship: 185/1,000,000 Magic: 1/10,000,000 Specialty: Dimensional Summon (Locked) Heavenly Energy (Nature and Void- Locked) Mana (Nature) A Berserker Elf is a once in a billion chance in happening, due to the traits of Elves in loving nature, they barely produce someone with an extreme talent for the bloodbath, as such, this type of elves tend to only show once in a billion years. Seeing this, Zhihao was shocked, what kind of aspect is this! Fei Xie''s talent is even stronger than Ying Mai''s. Zhihao was both excited and afraid, his dreams are starting to become reality after he saw Fei Xie''s status. Zhihao shook his head, he definitely needs to change the outcome of that fight. "Come with me first, I will have to train you for a few years if we wish to make you stronger." Fei Xie nodded and replied. "Yes, Lord!" Zhihao sighed as he continued walking down the stairs while Fei Xie followed him. Zhihao immediately scanned the whole continent and found Ying Mai and the rest''s location, he then sensed something and frowned. Somewhere within the vast continent, under a big mountain, there''s an extremely powerful force hidden inside of it, he couldn''t notice it before, but after clearing the Dark Energies loitering around the whole place, he finally had a clearer view. Zhihao looked at Fei Xie and spoke. "We will go somewhere first, follow me." "Yes!" Zhihao immediately formed a cloudy arc and lifted Fei Xie to board the top. "Waaaaaa!" Fei Xie was shocked, she hasn''t experienced flying before, and being thrown by Zhihao to board the arc made her feel like a bird. Zhihao immediately boarded the arc and headed there. After a few minutes, they were about halfway through there and found something familiar. Zhihao descended the arc and avoided those familiar faces. "Haaaaa!" "Freezing field!" "Fire Storm!" "Titanic Smash!" "Justice Pierce!" Zhihao immediately figured out their identity, it is Takeji''s group! Zhihao smiled, he saw Takeji''s group and had a satisfied look. He appraised them and nodded in approval. They''ve become stronger, they became stronger than the past powers of Roland and his seven comrades. Takeji''s group is fighting the undead on their way to the Demon Continent. Zhihao immediately contacted his subordinates. "Do not kill any undead from the path of the Human Race''s stronghold to the Demon Race''s stronghold." All ten of them immediately replied. "Yes my Lord/Master." Zhihao smiled as he nodded, then he remembered something and thought. ''Wait, Fei Xie has a talent for Heavenly Energy, but Heavenly Energies are energies that Gods uses, then... the strongest Gods has a different power, the power that transcended the Heavenly Energy, Arthariaz didn''t impart me those ideas, maybe it is too heavy of a burden in my mind.'' The knowledge that Arthariaz had imparted Zhihao is lacking if he wanted to do something for the greater cause, but after thinking that as a human, his capabilities are not yet there to comprehend those powers, he sighed. Then looking at Takeji''s group, he scanned the area surrounding them, there are at least weaker undead and only two Death Knights that they encountered before. "They can handle something like that... Maybe..." Zhihao then chuckled as he watched the four of them continue their fight. Takeji''s group of four has some other companions, maybe the King had decided to aid them further with those three. "Piercing Arrow!" "Holy Light!" "Heal!" Two priests and a hunter, they make a good team with Takeji''s group, they coordinate properly and barely commit mistakes. But Takeji''s group are still filled with Amateurs, they are sometimes delayed in taking action or too advanced in taking one. Zhihao sighed as he spoke. "They still need a few more experiences, but that will come as they go, fighting is better learned with actual combat." Fei Xie only kept staring at the group fighting and listening to Zhihao''s words, Fei Xie actually wanted to join the fight, but thinking that Zhihao has other plans, she shook her head and continued to observe. ... Takeji''s group is actually doing a great job on their own, and once they are done, they''ll be able to return to Earth. "Good! we''re making progress, we might finish our conquest sooner if this continues!" Takeji spoke to encourage his classmates, although they enjoyed staying in the Fantasy Realm, they also missed their life on Earth. The other three smiled as they nodded. "Yeah! but I guess our story will end with that." "Well, our parents might be too worried about us, so we should hurry or we will get a lot of trouble when we return." "Hahaha, yep! we are lacking some manners, but we need to be fillial to our Family." The four of them joked around as the other three only smiled and laughed together with them. Then out of nowhere, two Death Knights appeared, walking slowly towards their location. Takeji noticed their presence and spoke. "Be careful! The bosses are here!" All of their expression turned serious as they waited for the Death Knights to approach. Then, the Death Knights immediately charged as their ghostly bodies left after images. Takeji was shocked, this undead are stronger than the ones they had faced before. "Holy Shield!" He immediately cast a defensive shield around their party. The Death Knight brandished his sword from the ground upward, creating a fissure like skill aiming at Takeji directly. Booom! A loud noise sounded as the seven of them were thrown a few meters away. Takeji and the rest were shocked, speechless. Some blood flew from their mouths as the other priest that has less defensive capabilities were heavily injured. Takeji gritted his teeth and spoke. "Let us fight it out!" Chapter 203 Heroes Party Takeji and his classmates are facing a very powerful enemy right now, they termed them as bosses. Composing himself, Takeji took the front and placed his shield in a defensive position. "I`ll take the hit, I wouldn''t be able to protect you all, be sure to avoid the boss''s skill and attack him at the same time!" "Yes!" Maya rushed to the right while Nanami took the left, Yoshiro hid behind Takeji to ambush the Death Knight after the clash. The hunter then dragged the heavily injured priests further behind and provided a cover for them, he then prepared himself to take a snipe at the Death Knight at any opening. ... From the distance, Zhihao is observing. Seeing this, Zhihao sighed and spoke. "That formation will only work on a single enemy, they are fighting two of them." Fei Xie thought that it was actually a good formation, and it would definitely be effective, but hearing Zhihao''s words, Fei Xie was bewildered. "But... I think that''s a really great formation, what is the mistake in that." Zhihao smiled as he replied. "If you are facing a brainless enemy, that would work, and if there is only one too, but let me ask you, in that type of formation, would you attack the one in the front with the big shield in his hand?" Fei Xie was still bewildered. Zhihao then continued. "Just watch them, and see for yourself." Fei Xie immediately looked at the fight and was shocked. The two Death Knights, instead of charging rushed at Nanami and Maya, the magic users a hundred meters behind Takeji. The Death Knights immediately took notice of the unguarded magic users. Fei Xie opened her eyes wide as she exclaimed. "Not good!" ... Seeing the Death Knights ignoring him and immediately went towards the damage dealers, Takeji was shocked, he immediately shouted. "Not good! Get back here now!" Maya and Nanami froze first when they saw the Death Knights charging at them, but when they heard Takeji''s shout, they immediately woke up as they rushed to Takeji''s position. The hunter was shocked, he immediately opened fire, trying to just delay the Death Knight''s advances. "Tracking Arrows! Arrow Shower!" The Hunter''s arrows kept hitting, but it is only doing minimal to no damage at all. The Death Knights ignored Hunter''s arrow and continued their charge. Takeji immediately rushed towards Maya and spoke. "Yoshiro! Support Nanami!" "On it!" The both of them separated as they dashed, trying to get to Nanami and Maya before the Death Knights could. Zhihao sighed, he shook his head and spoke. "I wanted to intervene, but I guess, they needed to gain some experience for themselves, getting injuries would help them develop." Zhihao spoke to calm down Fei Xie. Fei Xie is clenching her hands, he/she had been wanting to rush forward and provide some aid, but hearing Zhihao''s words, she stayed still and didn''t provide any assistance. "May the Goddess of Life ever bless your life and protect you from any harm." Zhihao sighed, he already predicted what is about to happen. "GRAAAAAAAAAAA!" A loud scream was heard right after that, it was not from Maya nor Nanami, but instead from Yoshiro. Yoshiro had been rushing desperately, the Death Knight saw a lot of opening and immediately changed his trajectory towards Yoshiro, dealing an ambushing bonus as Yoshiro is unprepared. Yoshiro was thrown a couple of meters away before slamming into a boulder before stopping. "Kyaaa!" Nanami screamed as she witnessed the strike that the Death Knight had dealt with to Yoshiro. Blood spewed out of his stomach as traces of it can be seen, from the point of impact to Yoshiro''s current location. The Death Knight with its fiery blood eyes looked at Nanami and immediately charged. Takeji saw this, wanting to rush, but if he does, he might not be able to save anyone, Maya is the target of the other Death Knight. Takeji gritted his teeth and threw his shield towards Nanami. "Divine Shield!" After shouting, he kept praying in his thought. ''Please make it! Please make it!'' Takeji then focused himself towards Maya as he guarded himself against any unexpected ambush from the other Death Knight. "Charged Shot!" The Hunter kept his cool as he shot his most powerful skill towards the Death Knight that is targeting Nanami, as a Hunter, keeping a calm mind is the best option to make, since every arrow shot by a Hunter is a very arduous task, a nervous Hunter would never hit a large target. The arrow that was shot is aiming at the Death Knight''s heart, The Death Knight immediately noticed the power behind the arrow, although he is too late, he tilted his body and tried to block it with his sword. The momentum of the Death Knight halted as he received the arrow, the arrow pierced at the Death Knight''s shoulder, although to mortals, it would be a fatal shot, to a Death Knight, it would be an easy task to take it from anywhere other than his Vital Part. The Death Knight pulled the arrow and broke it into two pieces before continuing his charge, but before he could, Takeji''s shield finally arrived. Plog! A sound of something exploding softly was heard as a barrier like energy appeared above Nanami wrapping the whole area around her was wrapped in it as Takeji''s shield floated in the air above her. Nanami just after a second immediately woke up from her nervousness and immediately attacked. "Mana around me, help me defend the peace and harmony of the land as I repel the evil doers of this world, turn into my power as I wield you and break the chains of chaos, Frost Piercer!" A massive spear like ice appeared that has the same size as Zhihao''s flame spear appeared, it immediately charged towards the Death Knight. The Death Knight saw this as he immediately tried to block it with his sword. Booom! A sound of an explosion was heard as the Ice skill hit its target, a fog-like smoke appeared around the area as it stayed there for a while. "Yes!" Nanami shouted in joy as she saw her skill hit the Death Knight head on. Takeji smiled as he charged towards the other Death Knight. "Titanic Smash!" Although it hit, it didn''t cause any big damage, only causing a minor smoke to gather and halting the advance of the Death Knight, Takeji immediately continued his way towards Maya. Yoshiro woke up from his unconscious state and immediately looked around. "Urgg..." Yoshiro groaned in pain as he saw the hole pierced in his stomach, he tried to ignore it as he looked around. "Yoshi!" Nanami shouted at him as she saw him finally move, she immediately walked out of the barrier and is going to Yoshiro''s spot. Yoshiro smiled as he shook his head, then he saw in his vision at the fog, a massive figure sitting in the horse is still there. The eyes of the Death Knight opened as he saw Nanami walked out of the barrier. "GRAAA!" The Death Knight immediately charged towards Nanami, Yoshiro saw this as he shouted. "Not good! Nanami! Go back inside the barrier!" Nanami heard Yoshiro''s shout, she then looked at the fog she had created and saw a silhouette of the Death Knight appeared as it got out of the Fog. Nanami immediately went and run back to the barrier, she was already 15 meters away from the barrier while the Death Knight is 35 meters away from her. Yoshiro got up as he held his stomach and rushed towards Nanami. Nanami was about five meters away from the barrier but the Death Knight is only a meter away from her. The Death Knight lifted his sword up, preparing to strike at Nanami the moment he closed the gap. Yoshiro screamed. "NO!!!" Takeji and the others saw this and immediately tried to control his shield to go closer to Nanami, but then, the one that he attacked also charged towards him. Takeji gritted his teeth as he prepared to receive the blow from the barely damaged Death Knights. "No one shall die!" Takeji shouted with tears flowing out of his eyes down to his cheeks. ________________________ Author''s note. Hello everyone.

The donations that I''ve had received are sincerely and deeply appreciated. I sincerely love you all, for the continuous support with my messy novel. With love, from a noob Author. -OmnipotentDad Chapter 204 I Am... Takeji and the gang could only think of one outcome, their death. Takeji, Nanami, Maya, and Yoshiro frowned as they smiled sadly. Takeji then spoke. "It was a great time, spending it with all of you." The other three smiled as they nodded. "It was a short life." "But lived well." "The only regret I have is not going back to my Family and have my funeral." All of them chuckled and started laughing. But then, something extremely fast was seen in approaching as it fell from the sky. Boooom! The thing that fell directly hit the location where Death Knight is standing, smokes flew from the sky as it covered the whole area. The other Death Knight saw this and was about to attack, but before it could walk, the Death Knight shivered together with his mount, the undead horse took a few steps back unconsciously. In the clouds of dust, a figure appeared as it walked out of the smoke towards Nanami. Takeji and the others saw this, but they also saw of how the Death Knight reacted, the Death knight retreated just right after wanting to charge in. When the dust cleared, the figure inside became visible, and also the Death Knight''s. A Knight in shining armor kept walking towards Nanami, adorned with a full black armor with golden decorations and blazing red outline can be seen, a massive yet sharp broadsword can be seen in his hand as he placed it on top of his shoulder. The Death Knight that was close to that Knight immediately tilted as it slid down, both the Man and the Horse was sliced into two parts. The other Death Knight immediately retreated as it tried to rush off from the other direction where the Knight appeared. The Knight in covered with black armor saw this and immediately threw his broadsword. Swooosh! Swish! The Broadsword immediately pierced at the Death Knight and turned into specs of black dirt and flew with the air, vanishing completely without a trace the same with the other one. Takeji, Maya, and Yoshiro finally managed to make it to Nanami. The Knight within the Black Armor then turned his back at them and stood still, waiting for something. When the priests and the Hunter arrived, they assisted each other then looked at the Knight in Black. Takeji looked at the Knight and asked. "Who... Who are you?" The Man inside the armor smiled as he looked at them. "Who am I? I am..." ... A few minutes earlier. Within the Arc, Zhihao sighed. Fei Xie looked at him and asked. "Master, are we not going to help them?" Zhihao scratched his chin, if he will help them, he will immediately be known by them, he then thought of some alternatives. "Maybe... I`ll just shoot a fireball and kill those Death Knights? or just make those Death Knights directly vanish?" Fei Xie was shocked, the situation is urgent, but Fei Xie''s Master is still calm, she/he then shook her/his head and waited for his judgment. In her/his view, Zhihao is a God, if a God wants to help someone, it would be as easy as flipping a page in a book. Zhihao kept thinking hard of how to help them without much of a fuss, if he did it without any explanation, it would be extremely mysterious and might make Takeji''s group unable to continue due to trauma. He needs to help them without alerting them, making them continue on their journey. Zhihao then looked at Fei Xie and asked. "Can you defeat those Death Knights alone?" Fei Xie was stunned, she then thought for a bit and replied. "Master, If it is holding on, I can fight one of those, I think, but if two, I`ll definitely be at a disadvantage." Zhihao nodded as he sighed, he needed to think of something else. Then, he thought of a great idea as he looked at Fei Xie and threw something. "Hold on to this cube." The cube that Zhihao gave is the same as what he had given to Roland and the others. Zhihao them smiled as he continued. "I`ll teach you how to use it later." "Un!" Fei Xie nodded. Zhihao then looked at her and spoke. "Wait for me here." Fei Xie nodded again, then he/she saw that Zhihao flew in the sky, higher and higher until he vanished from her sight. "I wonder... when can I fly too..." Zhihao in the sky smiled, the smile that, Ma Dong, Ying Mai, and the others wouldn''t want to see happening. The smile that causes them to shiver unintentionally. The smile of someone that is plotting that is extremely unfashionable. The smile that can kill someone with shame. The one and only smile that Zhihao gives whenever he thought of something very eccentric. He then equipped his armor, the armor that was covered in black with gold and red decorations all over it, he then casually picked a weapon in his storage and found a broadsword. Zhihao smiled as he looked at the ground where the Death Knight is approaching Nanami. He immediately rushed downward as he aimed at the Death Knight. Then he thought for a bit and spoke. "I need to make it flashy, the ones I saw on those televisions before." After pondering, he smiled and continued. "Smoke, it would look cool! hahaha, I`m a genius!" Zhihao immediately increased his phase as he prepared to strike. When he is about to land, he gathered a tiny amount of mana in his hand and immediately aimed it at the ground. "Wind Blast!" After casting the skill, he immediately slashed at the Death Knight in half. Swooosh! Zhihao then looked at Nanami, but then, he frowned and thought. ''D*mnit, the smoke takes too long to disperse!'' He then casually used mana to drive the wind and fastened the phase of the smoke to vanish. ''I can see now, okay, I`ll stop here.'' He stopped the wind as he started walking towards Nanami. When the smoke cleared up, he was about to say ''Are you okay?'' but then, the other Death Knight started to run away. ''D*mn that weakling!'' He immediately thought of that movie he saw in the T.V stores near the public toilet and smiled. He then threw his broadsword and immediately killed the Death Knight. He then thought of how to make a cool appearance and faced the other way from Takeji''s group as he looked at the wide horizon. ... Present time. "Who... Who are you?" Zhihao smiled as he tilted his face towards his shoulder and smiled. "Who am I? I am..." Zhihao intentionally paused to cause tension, and yes, it was effective, Takeji''s group was tense and nervous. Zhihao then looked at them as he posed himself and continued. "Mana Ranger, Platinum Black!" Woooooosh. After Zhihao spoke, deathly silence echoed throughout the wasteland as even a pin dropping could be heard. Takeji''s party of seven was speechless, the only thought in the Heroes'' mind is. ''Are you filming a movie or something?'' Chapter 205 I`m... Going to be a Grandpa? Silence, extreme silence. Woooosh~~ After a while, Zhihao got tired of posing as he coughed. "Ahem, well, I`m just a passerby, so I`ll be going now." After speaking, Zhihao walked away. If they can see what Zhihao looked like, they would laugh. The dignified knight walking with his chest held out is actually blushing so much that his whole body is shivering. ''Ahhh, fudges, is it really that weird? maybe I`ll just let Roland and the others do it next time...'' Zhihao walked out with a slump on his shoulder, he wanted to look cool, but seeing Takeji''s reaction, it seemed to have turned out the other way around. Takeji and the rest then woke up from their daze and immediately called out. "Wait!" "Mister! Please wait!" Zhihao looked at them as he sighed and asked. "What is it?" Takeji immediately became serious as he continued. "Who are you?" "You want to know who I am?" An aura that completely surpassed their imaginations floated out of Zhihao''s body, making all of them shiver so much. Zhihao chuckled as he acted mysteriously and continued. "Didn''t I tell you that before? I am Mana Ranger, Platinum black, I was quite sure I mentioned it before." Hearing his answer, all of them had black lines on their forehead. Takeji then continued. "No... I mean... are you a human?" Zhihao sighed, he then nodded and replied. "Yes, I am a Human, an SSS Ranked adventurer." After speaking, Zhihao then showed them his badge, displaying the remarkable craftsmanship with the SSS rank on display. Takeji and the others looked at each other, while the Hunter and two Priests shivered. Takeji noticed this and asked. "What''s wrong? What''s an SSS ranked adventurer?" Waking up from his shock, the Hunter looked at Takeji and answered. "Hero-sama, an... an... An SSS ranked adventurer are Legends, no people had ever seen nor heard of them for thousands of years, they are people with unparalleled strength, the Human Race''s greatest warriors... I have heard of the new SSS Ranked team, the God''s Overseer." Hearing the hunter''s words, Takeji and his classmates were astounded. Then the Hunter continued. "But..." Takeji looked at the Hunter and asked. "But what?" "I heard that..." The Hunter looked at Zhihao nervously. He then went towards Takeji and whispered something. "I heard, their leader is Wearing Platinum Black armor with gold and red decorations." Takeji and the rest looked at Zhihao and finally understood what he is saying, all four of them then simultaneously thought. ''Yep, definitely a weirdo.'' Zhihao with his keen sense, especially his great hearing, he heard their whisper. He sighed as he became sad and thought. ''Am I really that weird? but it all looked so cool when I was watching it.'' Takeji and the group then looked at Zhihao and asked. "Excuse me, will you help us in our conquest? we need to destroy the Demon Lord''s ploy, we need your strength." Hearing this, Zhihao yet again sighed, he thought for a bit before looking at them. "If you couldn''t do it, why''d you start to begin with?" They all heard Zhihao''s words and slumped. Yoshiro immediately replied. "But we are heroes, we needed to do it to return to our World, we have powers, treasured weapons, and armors, we can definitely do it!" Zhihao looked at Yoshiro calmly, but to Yoshiro, it felt like a huge mountain is staring at him directly, pressing him with great pressure. "Then, if you removed all of those, what are you all?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were struck, speechless and disturbed. In their thought. ''Yes... we have nothing, we''re only a group of teenage kids trying to act tough, trying to do something that we have no knowledge into, a few kids trying to play house...'' Seeing their realization, Zhihao smiled then continued. "You should, before trying something that you haven''t tried before, try the things you could do without it first, a child can never learn how to run before learning how to crawl, how do you know things that you haven''t known before?" Zhihao looked at them as he smiled and continued. "What can you all do without it then?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were shocked, they then pondered for a bit. A sudden enlightenment was revealed in their eyes. "We... we need to learn." "Experience." "Train." "And Master our selves before mastering something else!" Zhihao nodded as he smiled and continue. "Good, I`ll go now, I hope you all get better through everything and see you stronger." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they then saw him leaving, but before he could, Takeji shouted. "Wait! Please help us!" Zhihao stopped on his track and looked at them. Takeji continued: "You are the strongest Human in this World, please help us train! teach us, mentor us in becoming stronger!" Zhihao was shocked, not knowing what to do, the thought in his head simply became frozen. Nanami and Maya then pleaded. "Please, help us." "We beg you Mister Knight, help us." All of them bowed as they begged for Zhihao''s teachings. ''I`m... Going to be a Grandpa?'' The thought that Zhihao could only see is one of those novels he had read before where a grandpa helping the main character to grow stronger. Then a smile formed in his lips as he thought of a great idea, one of those that he had read before, actually four of them, the one teaching a person through sword and shields and double blades, the ones helping an untalented person in becoming the greatest alchemist with a lot of flames and the one that made mentored in helped in an extreme yin constitution. Zhihao smiled as he looked at them and spoke. "The training, that I will give you all would be strict, it might be too harsh for someone at your age." All of them immediately smiled as they already knew that Zhihao accepted. "YES! We will be able to go through anything!" All of them bowed as they spoke those words. "Good!" Zhihao smiled as he walked somewhere. Takeji and his party looked at him and asked. "Where are we going, Master?" Zhihao paused his steps and looked at them. "Uh... where are we going?" All of them were stunned as a thought popped up in their head. ''Maybe... just maybe, we might''ve made a grave mistake...'' Chapter 206 Evolution Zhihao led Takeji''s group to a vast wasteland full of dead trees, animal hides, bones, etc, they then stopped there to make it their base of operation. He looked at Takeji''s group and spoke. "We will stay here for a month, that''s the only time I`ll be guiding you all." Takeji''s group nodded, then they scanned everything and asked. "Are we... going to stay here without any cover?" Zhihao chuckled as he replied. "You can do that, or you could make a shelter yourself, I`ll be back after a few minutes, we will start once I return." "Yes!" All of them replied as they scanned the area around, trying to find something to make a lodging for them to stay for a month. When they started to walk, they then looked at Zhihao. They were astounded immediately, where had Zhihao had gone to? he was only there a few moments ago but he suddenly vanished without a trace. ... Zhihao immediately flew towards the Arc, he also needed to train Fei Xie. After arriving, He then saw Fei Xie trying to imitate what he had done earlier, flying. Seeing the sight, Zhihao chuckled. Fei Xie heard Zhihao''s chuckle and immediately turned to look around. "Lord! You are back!" "Un!" Zhihao walked near Fei Xie and started. "The cube I gave you, place it at your chest and push it inside." Fei Xie immediately nodded as he/she did what Zhihao ordered. The cube immediately entered inside her/his chest and was astounded. "Lord, what next?" Zhihao nodded as he continued. "Bear the pain." Fei Xie looked at Zhihao in bewilderment: "Ehh? what do you mean Ma..." Fei Xia hasn''t finished his/her words yet, because something cold is surging out of his/her body, she/he then looked at Zhihao, Fei Xie opened her/his mouth but before a word escaped her/his mouth, she/he immediately clenched his/her chest and held it tighter. "Kyaaaaa!" An unexplainable pain immediately surged inside his/her body as cold energy tried to devour her/his whole body. Fei Xie lost his/her consciousness but was immediately woken up by the pain. "Kyaaaa!" Fei Xie continuously screamed at the top of his/her lungs. Zhihao looked at Fei Xie calmly and spoke. "Can you bear it? we can stop now." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Fei Xie looked at Zhihao intensely, she/he wants to say no, but the words inside in her/his mouth wouldn''t go out, instead, screams are the only thing she can shout. Seeing this, Zhihao sighed and continued to watch, but then, Zhihao received a notification. *Ding!* =A extreme power is awakening, Warning to host, there is a 50/50 chance that Fei Xie would survive. -Due to the heavenly compatibility of that person''s body with the Cube of Nature and Balance, an evolution occurred. -After the awakening, the body of that person will be completely empty like an empty bowl without anything inside, filling that body of emptiness will turn that person into a great companion, someone that can stand along with you in your great path. -Death, if that person fails, there can only be a single consequence, Death. -Warning, the pain of transforming is four times harder than when Host has received the Tyrannical God''s Body physique, you can''t pull out the cube in the middle of its transformation. Hearing this, Zhihao was shocked, he immediately stood up to check on Fei Xie, but what he saw is an extreme change. Fei Xie is bleeding from all holes as she/he is turning to a male, muscles kept protruding in Fei Xie''s body as the once neutral body turns masculine, Fei Xie''s face is also transforming as more corners appeared. Zhihao sighed and shook his head before coming close to Fei Xie and patted Fei Xie''s back. "I`ll help you, don''t give up, you can do it, I know you can." Fei Xie is evolving as a man due to the strong belief in Justice and Balance, Fei Xie wanted to destroy all sorts of plans that wanted to breed chaos. This belief is pure will and power, once an Elf had transformed to a gender, they will stay like that forever, no potions nor magical treasure can turn it back or change it to something else. Zhihao immediately inserted his Spiritual Energy inside Fei Xie, trying to ease Fei Xie''s pain. Fei Xie felt an very powerful yet gentle energy enter his/her body, lessening the pain for more than half of what it was earlier. Fei Xie gritted her/his teeth and tried to bear the pain, but then, the pain that Fei Xie had accumulated was already tremendous, the stamina and energy inside his/her body started to diminish, if this continues, Fei Xie would definitely die. Zhihao can feel that Fei Xie is already at his/her limit, he then tried to inject some mana and spiritual energy inside Fei Xie''s body, but Fei Xie''s core rejected it as it was pushed out of his/her body, immediately halting Zhihao''s aid. "Kyaaaaa!" Zhihao''s power drawing back from him immediately returned the amount of pain that Fei Xie is receiving. Not knowing what to do, Zhihao immediately activated Arthariaz''s buffs. "Supreme Martial God''s Aura." "Supreme Martial God''s Elemental Law of the Universe." "Supreme Martial God''s Fortitude and Fortification." But sadly, the first and third buffs didn''t help Fei Xie, only the Elemental Law of the Universe did, easing Fei Xie''s pain by a quarter. All sorts of pain can be felt inside his/her body as the pain steadied. Zhihao noticed that the intensity of the pain finally stopped increasing and spoke. "30 minutes more, you can do it Fei Xie." Fei Xie wanted to nob, but he/she already knew that the limit of power inside his/her body had finally reached the limit. "My... Lord... I`m... I`m so sorry..." Fei Xie''s lifeline immediately blurred, steadily vanishing. Zhihao didn''t know what to do, he can bear other people''s death, but losing people that he had made ties with is unacceptable. "Don''t! please!" Remembering the times with his Direct Disciples that died from the War with Bugal in the cultivation World, he couldn''t stop trembling. Zhihao immediately teared up as his eyes became wet, he immediately held Fei Xie''s hand and tried to send his spiritual powers. People that had pledged their loyalty to him are his men, and he treated them equally, no one is above the others if it''s in term of care. Fei Xie looked at Zhihao and saw his face full of anguish, Fei Xie thought that Zhihao only accepted due to his/her persistence, but it was actually not, Zhihao treated everyone that he had accepted equally. Fei Xie felt warm inside as he/she smiled. "My Lord." Fei Xie looked at Zhihao as she found something to hold on to, something other than Justice and Balance. Something that immediately lessened the pain drastically that she had been feeling, Fei Xie looked at Zhihao full of warmth in her eyes. Zhihao heard Fei Xie spoke and looked at her. Fei Xie smiled as she continued. "I can go through this, my Lord." Chapter 207 Difference of an Insect and the Heavens "My Lord, I can go through this, with little problem, urgh!" Fei Xie is definitely a lot better now, but she could still fill a tremendous pain and strain from the power that is changing her whole body, steadily making her evolve. Zhihao was shocked, so shocked at what he''s currently seeing, he wasn''t shocked at how Fei Xie had suddenly powered up by a whole wide margin but was shocked at Fei Xie''s changes. All of the muscles and corners that Fei Xie had made before were gone and what had replaced it is a very smooth skin, slender body, and a gorgeous face, a well-endowed rear and two very well developed... ahem, well basically, Fei Xie turned into a female, a woman with great features and beautiful face, a face that would make all men drool over. "Kuk!" Fei Xie gritted her teeth as the pain coursed through her whole body. Hearing the sound, Zhihao finally woke up from his daze, he then immediately tried to insert his Spiritual Energy inside Fei Xie''s body, this time, it was accepted. Fei Xie''s face immediately eased a bit after Zhihao''s spiritual energy entered. Zhihao smiled after he saw Fei Xie''s face change to ease. After a few hours, Fei Xie finally calmed down as the pain finally subsided until it completely vanished. Fei Xie immediately fell asleep after struggling so much to bear the pain. Zhihao looked at her and smiled. Zhihao immediately dragged the cloud arc towards the top of where he left Takeji''s group. He immediate equipped his Black armor and descended from the sky, not forgetting to show off. Booom! A loud sound echoed as Zhihao landed to the ground near Takeji''s group''s camp. Takeji''s group of seven immediately looked at the scene, Zhihao walked out of the cloud of dust and spoke. "Mana Ranger Platinum Black is back." Takeji''s group immediately looked at each other with a sigh. "If he doesn''t speak, he''d look really cool." "Yeah, I might''ve fallen for him already, but... ah." "With all of those weird stuff, it''s just... it is just that..." The seven of them sighed. Zhihao grew some black lines in his forehead as he sighed and continued walking. ''I guess... I shouldn''t speak those words again...'' Zhihao thought for a bit as he continued thinking. ''I`ll need to think of something cooler next time.'' When Zhihao finally came close to them, he spoke. "The training will start now." Zhihao looked at the hunter and two priests. "Do you three want to join?" The three of them immediately nodded as they replied. "Yes, Lord!" Bowing their head like they are begging for acceptance. Zhihao nodded as he summons a throne out of nowhere and sat there. All of them was shocked, where''d such a big thing came out of! The hunter immediately has sweats all over his body and was shook. "Di... Dimen... Dimensional Storage?" Takeji and the rest looked at the Hunter and asked. "What do you mean by that?" The Hunter cleared his forehead and looked at Zhihao, seeing that Zhihao is not against it, the Hunter continued. "Dimensional Storage is spaces that a person creates within his own body, depending on their power, it can grow into a new vast World, and..." The Hunter paused as he looked at Zhihao and continued. "Those are only made, by people... by people that... that had surpassed us, us Mortals... Transcending to something else..." Takeji and the gang immediately looked at Zhihao like they are looking at some monster. Zhihao chuckled as he waved his hand and spoke. "Don''t worry about it, I`m a human being, it is just a little trick up my sleeves, let us start." All of them gulped a mouth full of saliva and braced themselves for the ultimate training that Zhihao will give them. Zhihao then summoned three black things with the size of a small couch glittering like the black thing itself is saying that ''Hi, I`m fabulous.'', he had purchased it at the system before going back here. Pillar of Solidity, Fortune, and Fortitude. Description: Slowly drains the power of the ones holding it, but once that person broke the Pillar, their power will double from the previous time. Those black pillars showed and planted itself at the back of Zhihao''s throne. Seeing this, Takeji''s group immediately shivered, such a horrifying yet gorgeous block pillar looking thing. Zhihao then threw three pieces of normal swords at Takeji, Yoshiro, and the Hunter. "The three of you shall hold a sword each." The three of them nodded, then Zhihao walked towards them and continued. "You will copy this pose now." Zhihao lifted one of his foot as the other one standing straight, then his left hand is pointing at the sky while the right hand is piercing out. Takeji and the rest nodded as they copied his pose. "Good, now stay like that for three hours without moving, you three will do that three times a day, and after that, you will sit on this pillar to meditate for thirty minutes, the next ones, I`ll say after." After speaking, Zhihao immediately returned to his throne. The three of them were shocked, but they shook their head, it might be a real training, Yoshiro had watched an anime before and saw something like this, he immediately thought. ''So... training like this really helps you grow stronger?!'' Sadly, the both of them, Zhihao and Yoshiro had watched/read the same anime. Takeji was about to ask something, but then, he saw Yoshiro became serious, the Hunter just immediately followed Zhihao''s instruction without any words. A teaching from someone that had surpassed mortality, it could only be said as one thing, a blessing from the heavens itself. Takeji shook his head and concentrated, the three of them would shake a few times before regaining their balance. Zhihao then looked at Maya, Nanami, and the two Priests. Zhihao immediately gathered mana in his hands as it formed into something else, it became extremely thin like a needle and grew upwards as it immediately pierced through the clouds, its color is a blinding white light. Maya, Nanami, and the two Priests were shocked, what kind of control is that! Zhihao looked at them as he smiled. "Cast a skill, all of you." The four of them nodded as they did what Zhihao had asked. "Fire Spear!" "Ice Daggers!" "Holy Cross!" "Holy Cross!" Immediately, the skills floated in the air after casting, feeling proud of what they had done, they''ve done their best in releasing this skill, pushing their best. Four massive skills floated in the sky, ready to be released at any time, a wild flame scorching in the sky, a freezing daggers, frosting the air around it, sparkling white lights in a form of a cross as the energy in it were bursting with the power of light. They looked at Zhihao, waiting for his appraisal. Zhihao looked at them as he sighed. "We have a long way to go." Hearing Zhihao, all of them, including the other three was shocked, that is a power that they haven''t seen before, the maximum power that Nanami and Maya had released ever since they started, but Zhihao actually told them that they have a long way to go. Maya had a sad expression and was about to say something, but then Zhihao flicked his fingers. "Plop!" Their skills immediately vanished as it dispersed like a small fire being trampled by a foot, a water that evaporation, a light bulb that exploded. Zhihao then flicked his fingers another time. Then, mana gathered in the air as they formed into something else, three kinds of things floated in the air, a humongous red spear, hundreds of blue daggers, and a bright big white cross. Although it looked like weapons, they definitely felt that these are the skills that they have had just casted earlier, but what Zhihao released is extremely different, like theirs was a pile of mud while Zhihao''s was a sturdy mountain, the difference between them is a useless insect and the Heavens itself. Cold sweats appeared at their backs, seeing Zhihao''s skill, the evolved form of their skills. Chapter 208 Fei Xie... Her Complete Awakening Middle of nowhere. What Zhihao had shown them is extremely terrifying. Three massive skills floating in the sky, hovering above, it felt like the God of Death is Zhihao himself, with just a casual flick of his fingers, he summoned three massive things out of nowhere. The flame spear looked like a solid gem, a fiery blood red ruby with golden metals surrounding it, while the ice daggers seemed like treasured weapons, one where a lot of embroideries are embedded around it, while the holy cross wasn''t showing any brilliance, but instead looked like a relic, a white relic full of glimmering sparks. Zhihao looked at them and spoke. "Your training will be finished, if you could form an object out of mana through your skills, learn how to control the flow of mana around you and bend it to your will, be sure to fully concentrate and remember any improvements that you make." The four of them, Maya, Nanami, and the two Priests woke up from their daze as they looked at Zhihao and nodded. "Yes, Master!" The four of them immediately sat down as they imitated what Zhihao had done before, the needle-like thing that had pierced the sky, or might''ve pierced the heavens itself. After seeing that they started to focus on their training, Zhihao nodded as he also withdrew another four piece of those sucking black crystals, but the one he summoned is different, well not much, only the colors, it has a color of violet, and it is a lot softer than the black ones, basically made for Magic users to break sooner or later. He then immediately placed it beside the other three black pillars and walked towards Takeji''s group. Seeing Zhihao''s look, they were feeling nervous, what if Zhihao had done something while they are doing his training, well, they wouldn''t be able to do anything if they are fully vitalized, so they just shook their head and continued. Zhihao then walked back to his throne and sat there. After 45 minutes, he saw that Yoshiro and Takeji are already at their limits while the hunter is still doing fine, although a little shaky, that Hunter had already seen the tricks to this training, and that is the balance. The Hunter is placing the core of his balance at the center of his body if his hands are getting numb, then will place the center of his balance in his hands if he''s feeling that his foot is feeling fatigued, continuing this, the Hunter''s body has less stress compared to both Yoshiro and Takeji. Zhihao chuckled as he thought. ''There really is a big difference between the people of an evolved World from Earth, well, it will take a few more days for them to get used to it.'' Zhihao then looked at the magic users, he sighed as the four of them haven''t made any progress, none at all. "You four, imagine how a tree grows." Zhihao provided a small tip, but that tip is too profound, Zhihao himself didn''t know it, but that tip is somehow the most profound way of controlling their powers. Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were immediately woke up from their struggle, like a sudden enlightenment, the big round mana on top of their hand started to have a bulge at the top of it. "Ah! It has a bulge!" Maya excitedly spoke, but just right after that, all of their concentration vanished as the Mana on their hands exploded. Nanami knocked Maya''s head and spoke. "Return to training! look at the sky! We got a very long way to go!" Maya pouted as she sat and returned to training. Zhihao chuckled as he spoke. "I will be going for now, be sure to train diligently." All of them looked at Zhihao but was extremely shocked, Zhihao was no longer there, he had vanished again without a trace. Then, remembering who Zhihao is, they shook their head as they continued. ... Zhihao already returned on top of the cloud arc, he had felt that Fei Xie finally woke up and decided to return. Fei Xie woke up on a gorgeous bed, it is so soft and felt extremely comfortable, she then looked at the front and saw Zhihao standing. Fei Xie blushed as she fixed herself up and kneeled. "My Lord, thank you for your assistance." Zhihao smiled as he nodded. "You`ve fully recovered?" "Un!" Zhihao nodded as he continued. "Okay, now, try activating the cube in your body, feel it and make it cover you as a whole." Fei Xie nodded as she tried to do what Zhihao had instructed. Zhihao smiled, but then he heard a notification. *Ding!* =Evolution completed awakening in process. Zhihao was bewildered, he doesn''t know what it means, but then a sudden bright flash of light emerged from Fei Xie''s body. Zhihao immediately tried to disperse it but it wasn''t effective, he then gathered mana and made a very thin dark wall, making it like a tint of a car''s in front of him. He saw Fei Xie started to have some strange white thing floating around her, Fei Xie''s clothes started to dissolve as that white strange thing started to wrap her body, transforming into something else. The white thing wrapping Fei Xie''s body started to take form as it separated into nine different parts and went to Fei Xie''s body. Hands, Arms, Body, legs, feet, head, lower garment, belt, and the last huge part went to her back. *Ding!* =Awakaning completed. The blinding light vanished, Zhihao immediately removed his thin dark wall. What he saw is like a Fairy, descending from the Skies, the white things turned into dark green armor with a brass colored corners, exquisite details, the armor made her look like a Battle Goddess. Waking up from his daze, Zhihao appraised Fei Xie''s status. Name: No Name. Age: 412 Level: 720 Race: Berserker Elf (Sword Empress) Talent: Nature and Void Swordsmanship: 185/1,000,000 Magic: 1/10,000,000 Specialty: Dimensional Summon Heavenly Energy (Nature and Void) Mana (Nature) Awakening effects. -Swordsmanship -Great Control over nature and void -Dimensional Storage -Enhancing Weapons(Self-use) -Immortal (Until killed by someone of the same power or stronger without a trace) There are a lot of locked features. Seeing Fei Xie''s new status, Zhihao was shocked, not knowing to say. Fei Xie, no, an unnamed being is born. After changing their gender, they will have a new name, and once bestowed with a great name, something extreme will happen. She looked at Zhihao and blushed, Zhihao had been staring at her without blinking his eyes even once. Zhihao woke up from his daze as he spoke. "You will become extremely strong, someone that can walk a path, together, or even higher than mine." Although Zhihao spoke of it unconsciously, but that is the assessment he has with the knowledge that Arthariaz had left him, if he stayed the same, she will definitely surpass him in due time. Zhihao clenched his fists as he spoke. "I need to become stronger too." ______________________________ Basically, something like this. https://gallery.yopriceville.com/Fantasy/Beautiful_Fantasy_Elf_Warrior_Wallpaper#.W3rGf84za00 What Fei Xie turned into. Chapter 209 Rivalry Cloud Arc. Zhihao is currently contemplating in what to do, Arthariaz didn''t leave any sort of path for him to take, making his power take a standstill. Ever since he had left the Cultivation World, his power had stopped from progressing, unlike the Cultivation World where Zhihao could gather the essence of energy, the Spiritual Energy which goes through his body and helps him evolve further, in the Fantasy Realm, their source of power can be seen everywhere, but it couldn''t be stored, making his growth halt. Zhihao sighed as he kept pondering for what else to do. Fei Xie, or should I say, an Unnamed elf now, saw Zhihao''s dilemma and asked. "My Lord, what seemed to be causing you trouble?" Zhihao sighed as he looked at Fei Xie and replied. "Nothing, it wouldn''t help even if I tell you the problem." Fei Xie looked at him and asked. "My Lord, I wish to be named." Zhihao was bewildered as he looked at Fei Xie and asked: "Isn''t your name Fei Xie? why do you need to be named?" Fei Xie shook her head as she continued. "Master, an elf once had finally changed their gender will have their previous name be changed, the old one shall be removed and a new one should be chosen by you." After speaking, Fei Xie tried to hide her facial expression from changing, but her face betrayed her as she still blushed. Zhihao was shocked at first, but then, remembering what he saw earlier, there really is no name. Zhihao pondered for a while as he sat on the arc crossed legged. Fei Xie smiled as she sat in front of Zhihao, waiting for his decided name. Zhihao, then unintendingly did something, he entered enlightenment mode as his consciousness wondered around. He tried to remember something, one of those that he had seen before on one of those anime he watched, and together with some of the novels he had read, an image appeared in his head. A little beautiful spirit with cute wings, tiny with the size of a grown man''s hands, Zhihao smiled as he knew which creatures these were. "A Sylph." The Sylph in his vision smiled at him and continuously nodded. Zhihao finally opened his eyes as he saw Fei Xie looking at him, waiting for his answer. Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Sylvia, from now on, your name is Sylvia, do you like it?" But Fei Xie, or now named Sylvia was shocked after Zhihao had given her a name, she could feel the amount of thought a person made when they received a name from their chosen partner, and with the Enlightenment mode where the consciousness of a person is fully concentrated on a single thing, it felt to Sylvia that Zhihao had given his whole heart in thinking of a name. Unconsciously, tears fell down from her eyes to her cheek as she smiled. Seeing Sylvia with tears, Zhihao was shocked and became nervous. "Wait! Ahh, you didn''t like the name? I`ll think of a new one!" Sylvia woke up from her dreamland and smiled as she shook her head and replied. "No... No, my Lord, I love it so much that I unconsciously had tears gather in my eyes, I love it deeply." Sylvia smiled as she smiled and closed her eyes, she then placed her hand in the middle of her chest and did something. A bright light shotted out of her body as she transformed again, although it is not her whole body this time, but somewhere in her back. Four glistening lights appeared as it became transparent wings, opening her eyes, she smiled and continued. "I`ve gained the power of Wind my Lord." Zhihao tilted his head in bewilderment and asked. "What do you mean?" Sylvia chuckles as she replied: "My Lord, if an Elf is to be given a name by their partner, depending on how much thought their partner placed in thinking about it, those feelings will be transferred to our heart as, then we will receive a power based on it, sometimes, we don''t, It is my first time seeing my situation though, I''ve become extremely powerful." Zhihao chuckled as he smiled and replied. "The changes were caused by the cube, but the huge part of it came from your own natural talent, you had an awakening which would mean that you`ve become stronger, so you`ll only need to fill your empty body with power." Sylvia shook her head as she knew what Zhihao mean, that it all came down to her own talent, she looked at Zhihao and replied. "My Lord, no matter what you`ll say, everything came from you, and I had previously vowed, that I will forever stay, by your side." Zhihao smiled as he stood up and looked at a distance, then from a few hundred miles away, he detected a powerful source of energy coming at their direction, and just at the next instant, that figure landed at the top of Zhihao''s cloud arc. "Master, I''ve returned." It was Ying Mai, she looked very professional as she greeted Zhihao, Ying Mai then noticed a person who''s also in there, she looked at Sylvia and frowned. Zhihao nodded as he spoke. "So, how is your mission." "We''ve cleared off all of the paths that you`ve instructed and leaving of a single path from the straight line coming from the Human Race straight towards the Demon Race." Zhihao nodded as spoke. "Good, you can rest now." "Yes, Master." After replying, Ying Mai looked at Sylvia again, she saw her eyes glittering as Sylvia looked at Zhihao, Ying Mai already knew what that look is, that''s the look she kept giving Zhihao every day. Ying Mai frowned as she spoke to Sylvia. "I came here first." Sylvia was shocked, Ying Mai noticed her feelings and immediately blushed. "I won''t give up." With that reply, she looked at Ying Mai full of resolution. The two of them had a spark between them, as they looked at each other like they are looking at their rival. Chapter 210 Trouble Zhihao was on his own World, then he heard the two spoke. "I came here first!" "I won''t give up!" Zhihao looked at them and asked. "What are the two of you talking about?" Ying Mai and Sylvia stopped as Sylvia looked at the ground blushing while Ying Mai walked towards him. "Master, I''ve found some tasty fruits in the middle of the mountain, I''ve already tried one, and it tastes delicious, have one a taste Master." Ying Mai brought out a fruit that looked like the grapefruits on Earth out of her Interspatial Ring, she then plucked one of it and immediately stretched her hand to feed it to Zhihao herself. Zhihao was struck speechless, Ying Mai is becoming extremely aggressive today, his face blushed red immediately as he opened his mouth and received Ying Mai''s deliciously round grape looking fruit. Zhihao was shocked as the grapefruit is luscious, it has a crispy outer shell like eating an apple that is somewhat bland while the core of the fruit has a liquid that is as sweet as honey. Ying Mai smiled as she asked: "Master, it tastes great right? I`ve picked about three full trees and had about a ton of them in my Interspatial Ring." "Un! It tastes really great!" Zhihao smiled as he opened his mouth unconsciously, Ying Mai smiled as she fed Zhihao one more fruit, Ying Mai threw a victorious glance at Sylvia as she went back and focused on feeding Zhihao. Sylvia was shocked at the gaze that Ying Mai had thrown her, and it felt like Ying Mai had won something, Sylvia gritted her teeth as she walked closer and sat beside Zhihao and blushed. Zhihao looked at Sylvia as he smiled and spoke. "Have a taste too, and it really is a great fruit." Zhihao then took half of what Ying Mai is holding and brought it in between him and Sylvia. Sylvia looked at Zhihao as she smiled and spoke. "Thank you, my Lord." After speaking, she immediately took a piece and stretched her hand in Zhihao''s lips. Zhihao was shocked at first, but before he could react, Ying Mai moved. "I`m enough. You just feed yourself." Ying Mai pushed Sylvia''s hand that was stretching towards Zhihao back to her mouth. Ying Mai and Sylvia looked at each other as a spark can clearly be seen between the two of them. Zhihao looked at them with bewilderment, why would the two of them act like that. Sylvia blushed as she spoke. "I`m just trying to serve my Lord!" "I already told you, I`m more than enough!" The two of them then fought as they fed Zhihao with the fruit while glaring at each other, then they heard a sound. "Ishtowph!" Sylvia and Ying Mai looked at where the sound came from and saw that Zhihao already had a mouth full of fruit, the both of them immediately sweated as they walked back a few steps at a time. Zhihao looked at them as he sighed, he was about to throw them all out but remembering the taste, he circulated Mana in his hands as he made it go inside his mouth, the fruits immediately melted slowly as it was quickly gulped down by Zhihao. "Ah! Refreshing!" Zhihao gulped the whole of the melted fruit and felt extremely relieved. Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ying Mai immediately returned and sat beside Zhihao and continued to feed him. "This, I don''t think that I cawerhsdfnsdfsdf..." Zhihao was about to reject Ying Mai''s approach, but before he could, Ying Mai had already stuffed his mouth with three pieces of the fruit. Sylvia saw this and immediately walked to Zhihao, trying to do the same. Zhihao panicked as he stood up and waved at his hand and spoke. "Stop, stop the both of you, what''s wrong with the two of you?" Zhihao alternately looked at the both of them seriously. Ying Mai immediately had a solemn expression while Sylvia looked like a kid which had done something terribly wrong. Not knowing what to do, Zhihao entered a predicament that he had never faced in his life before, he started to sweat, but then he remembered that he was still training Takeji''s group and smiled. "I`m going down again, they''ve already been there for hours, I need to teach and guide their training." Zhihao was about to go, but Ying Mai and Sylvia held both of his arm as they spoke. "My Lord/Master, I`ll go with you!" The both of them looked at each other as Ying Mai frowned while Sylvia blushed. Not knowing what to do, Zhihao scratched his head with a sigh. "Okay, but you`ll go there with your armors on, understood?" The both of them simultaneously nodded as they replied. "Un!" Looking at each other, one harrumphed while the other one blushed and stared at Zhihao with a pleading eye. "Okay, just transform now, be sure to cover your face with a helmet, understood?" The both of them nodded but didn''t reply, trying to not do the other one''s move, but sadly, they also did the same thing again. Ying Mai then ignored Sylvia and transformed to her appearance, Sylvia then immediately followed as she also equipped her newly received armor. A brightly showed as the both of them finished transforming. "Good! Let''s go now." After speaking, Zhihao immediately descended from the sky, Ying Mai immediately followed. Sylvia was speechless but immediately woke up from her daze and shouted. "Master, I don''t know how to fly!" Hearing Sylvia''s words, Zhihao nearly fell from the sky, he then sighed as he flew back again. Ying Mai followed as she sneered at Sylvia and spoke. "Amateur." But Sylvia didn''t respond, she was actually full of smiles, Ying Mai saw this and immediately realized something as Zhihao went closer to her. Ying Mai immediately dashed between them and spoke. "Master, I`ll carry her down the ground!" Hearing Ying Mai volunteering, Zhihao smiled as he nodded. "Okay, be careful, she had just awakened, she is still weak." After speaking, Zhihao flew down slowly as he waited for them to follow. Ying Mai snorted as she picked up Sylvia and followed, not forgetting to leave a word. "Great plan! but so long as I am here, nothing is going to work!" Sylvia knew that Ying Mai had already figured out her intention, she immediately blushed and didn''t reply. ... The three of them descended from the sky. Takeji''s group looked at them with shock, amazement, and deityfying. Zhihao immediately sat at his throne as the other two stood beside him, they can already guess their gender, with such a slender armor that showed their curves, their body''s figure wasn''t hidden at the very least. But Takeji, on the other hand looked at the one on the right, Ying Mai, he was shaken as he spoke. "You... you are..." Chapter 211 Continuing the Search Takeji kept looking at Ying Mai with curiosity, something like he had seen her before. "Waaaa!" Takeji lost his composure after he thought that it is someone he recognizes, his body immediately felt numb and fell to the ground. "Ouch." Zhihao looked at him as he asked. "What''s wrong?| Takeji shook his head while his body still feels numb from standing there without moving, he looked at Ying Mai then spoke. "It feels like I''ve seen her from somewhere before." Zhihao was shaken, he looked at Ying Mai, and yes, she seemed to be wearing something identical to her previous clothes when they were inside the Castle. Trying to avoid any problems to occur on Earth after he comes back there, he made a question. "Do you know him?" With that question, Ying Mai already figured out that Zhihao is hiding their identity, she immediately responded. "No." Ying Mai also changed her voice to match their cover-up. Zhihao nodded in approval as he looked at Takeji and spoke. "She doesn''t know you, I guess, it was just mistaken identity." Takeji pondered for a bit before he nodded and replied: "I guess so." Yoshiro and the others chuckled as they continued in what they are doing, still focused on their training. Takeji smiled as he also returned to his training. Zhihao breathed a sigh of relief as he avoided that would become troublesome in the future. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he spoke. "Yi... The two of you, observe them for me." Ying Mai and Sylvia nodded as they looked at Zhihao and replied. "Yes, Master/Lord." Takeji''s group took a glance at Zhihao before returning to training, they all thought that Zhihao had better things to do and watch their boring training, leaving the two masked beauties to check on their progress. ... With that, Zhihao finally had a chance to continue his way towards that Mysterious energy coming from below the humongous mountain in the middle of the Fantasy World''s continent. Without anyone around, Zhihao immediately flew and reached the location of the mountain and steadily flew in the air. Zhihao then scanned the mountain again with his spiritual energy, just right after a few seconds, he immediately found the source of the energy, a humongous red energy is a 100 kilometers down the ground. Zhihao smiled as he scanned for the entrance, after just another minute, he rushed towards what seemed to be the entrance, but the entrance wasn''t anywhere near the mountain, it was a few kilometers away from the mountain itself, a grand river with a great waterfalls, and behind that waterfalls is a very huge cake. Zhihao flew inside as he saw a lot of scribbling inside of it, somewhat looked like one of those hieroglyphics from Egypt''s ancient time. There were a few monsters too, snake monsters, reptiles, birds, all sorts of monsters that range from level 700 to level 999, and level 999 were the maximum level of this World, but the Human Race had only managed to have adventurers with levels below 350. Zhihao was astounded. "The Human''s on this World had barely managed to enter the middle of their evolution? or is it, that this place had evolved further and created its own world inside the cave?" Seeing Zhihao entered the cave, the Monsters were about to attack, but they felt the presence of someone that is extremely powerful, someone that they couldn''t offend no matter what. One of the monsters stood in front of Zhihao and spoke. "Human, we only want to live, we seek no trouble with the Human race." Zhihao was shocked and asked. "You can speak?" The one in front of Zhihao was a bird, but about four meters wide and three meters tall, that bird had a soft look, but its feathers are much harder than a steel, that Bird immediately replied. "Yes, all of us here can speak, but we had only started evolving when we came here, truthfully speaking, I was just a level 24 Steel bird, but after coming here and absorbing the abnormal energy, I continuously grew up stronger, and better." Zhihao nodded, he then noticed something and asked. "Why are there only your type of monsters in this cave? reptiles and birds?" The monster pondered for a bit before answering. "Great human, we don''t know anything about that, but, all of the other monsters that entered here didn''t grow, they just felt terrified and left after a few days seeing they didn''t improve." Zhihao nodded and spoke. "You may leave now." The monster nodded as it made way for Zhihao to enter. Zhihao walked for a few steps, but he stopped and asked. "Ah, I forgot something!" All of the monsters immediately shivered as they all thought. ''Ohhh shiiit! we''re gonna die, we''re gonna die! he changed his mind!'' ''No! he didn''t want to spare us in the first place!'' Zhihao then continued. "Please don''t go and terrorize humans for about 50 years or making your own lair in the future." Hearing Zhihao''s words, all of them calmed down and asked. "Just that great human? nothing else? you won''t kill us?" Zhihao was astounded as he replied: "Uhh... I wasn''t really planning on killing anyone, I`m just passing by, but I`d appreciate it if you guys don''t cause any trouble in the continent for the next 50 years." Hearing Zhihao''s confirmation, all of the monsters felt relieved. Zhihao then asked. "Well?" "Of course oh great human, thank you for sparing our lives." Zhihao nodded as he continued his way inside the cave. Everytime that Zhihao passed by a group of monsters, they would immediately make way and hide in a corner. After walking a few hundred meters out, Zhihao stopped and is currently looking at something, a great huge tombstone was erected in it with a lot of words written from an ancient text, luckily, with Arthariaz''s imparted knowledge to him, he could understand it. "Here lies, one of your four sovereigns, oh Great Lord, the Omnipotent Being that guides all life, I had followed your orders, supported your plans for peace, but we were defeated, your second descendants, the Gods, had been corrupted by your first born, the Titans. I, the ~~~~~~~~~~ have alw~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~ ~ Pho~~~." We were defeated by the combined power of Gods and Titans, we''ve decided to flee, and scattered throughout the whole of the Realms that you''ve made, I will wait for ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~ forever" There were a lot of blurred words that was destroyed due to the passing of time, but the tombstone was imbued with a power that he had never seen before, but it felt extremely familiar. Zhihao looked at the path ahead and spoke. "What''s inside this World." Chapter 212 Akasha Inside the tunnel leading towards the bottom of the mountain. Feeling the dense powerful energy embued inside the tombstone, Zhihao tried to intake it, he closed his eyes and sat in front of it crossed leg as he started to meditate. Zhihao used his spiritual energy to spread his whole power to pry open the tombstone, trying to pierce his way in, but just right after that, the power inside the tomb rejected his spiritual energy, casually brushing it off. Zhihao was shocked as his Spiritual Energy slammed back into his body, throwing him a few meters away before finally slamming at the wall and stopped. Zhihao quickly stood up as he looked at the tombstone. "What a weird power, it feels like it has a soul of its own, but there is no life inside of it, but that power is extremely powerful, I would''ve died if it actually wanted to." Sweat started to pour down his back with those thoughts in mind, although he is calm right now since there was no killing intent that came from the strike, it could also kill him quite easily. After receiving such a great welcoming gift, Zhihao looked at the path behind the tombstone and continued his walk, ignoring the tombstone''s slap. Within the path, although there were monsters still lurking around with the same level from the other ones outside, these guys were different, they are evolving. Although they are a few folds stronger than the ones outside, they still did the same, they made way for Zhihao''s path. Zhihao casually threw a glance at them and moved on, getting tired of the view, Zhihao decided to increase his phase and flew his way further. Some of the monsters further in were evolving into those that he had seen from the anime he had watched before. "They are turning into dragons, some big scary snakes, ahhh, such great evolution." Although Zhihao had spoken that, he just ignored them and kept continuing forward. Just right after a few minutes, Zhihao stopped as he saw something extremely incredible, stalagmites, but all brightly fiery red colored. Zhihao stopped for a while as he took the view on his memory, it was such a scenery. It looked like a ruby formed into pointing spikes hanging on the roof, there is also a river inside, which is so clear that he could see what''s hundreds of meters below. "Red stalagmites glittering on the ceiling, flowing crystal clear water, and a beautiful naked woma... wait... something''s wrong." Zhihao''s thought stopped as he saw the woman who''s actually taking a bath in the lake. The lady has a black silky hair flowing with the river''s current, not a white skin, but brownish yet glimmering skin, what like golden beige, but she had a lot of mark on her body, like some sort of ancient markings. The lady stopped what she had been doing as she slowly looked towards Zhihao''s direction. When the lady saw Zhihao, she smiled and spoke. "I`m Akasha, you getting here means that you are quite strong." Zhihao woke up from his daze hearing Akasha''s words, he immediately faced the other direction and spoke. "Ah, sorry for barging in on your bath time, I was just curious about the place." Akasha chuckled and spoke. "No worries, I don''t mind, a strong human can view my body, just not the privates, hihi." Zhihao blushed for a bit, then he asked. "Why are you here?" But just right after Zhihao asked, Akasha appeared in front of him fully dressed and replied. "I took this place as my home." Zhihao looked at her and asked again. "Oh, well, just be sure to be safe, there are a lot of monsters here." Akasha chuckled as she spoke. "Don''t worry, I know my ways around here." Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "I`ll be going now, take care of yourself. Zhihao took it as Akasha had sneaked her way in, the strongest Human is only at level 350 below, but such a gentle and cute woman from just seeing her. Akasha immediately replied. "Ah, why not stay for a bit, I`ll show you something greater than this place." Zhihao is a curious guy, so he nodded his head and answered. "Sure." The two of them walked as Zhihao followed her towards somewhere. After a few minutes, Zhihao stopped as he saw the scenery, there are gems, somewhat like a ruby, but greater in quality. Zhihao tried hitting it with minimal force, it didn''t shatter, he didn''t even manage to scratch it, he then to appraise it. *Ding!* =Celestial Red Krelzin A type of stone that does nothing, except imprisoning a powerful being, has the greatest quality within all of the realms in terms of sturdiness. Zhihao was shocked, such a thing actually exists? building an armor out of it would definitely be impregnable. Zhihao smiled as he looked at Akasha and spoke. "its really a very interesting thing, thanks for showing it to me." Akasha chuckles and replied. "Don''t worry, it is good to have a human visit here once in a while, I''ve been here for a quite a few years, I know everything about this place like a back of my hand." Zhihao smiled, then he realized something and asked. "Oh, so you must be pretty strong too?" "Somewhat, yeah." Zhihao chuckled as he nodded. "Then, you are not a human?" "Un!" Zhihao confirmed his deduction immediately and continued. "What are you?" Akasha chuckles as she walked a few steps around the humongous red crystal, she was like a child playing around in her home house, humming sweetly. Although Zhihao is smiling, he is staying on full alert, something might happen, he tried to use his Spiritual Energy to scan Akasha but it bore no fruit, it was immediately slapped away. Akasha then looked at Zhihao as she bowed gracefully and in a playful manner. "Let me re-introduce myself, I am Akasha, the Titaness of Space, nice to meet you." Chapter 213 Difference "Let me re-introduce myself, I am Akasha, the Titaness of Space, nice to meet you." "Hmmmp!" Hearing her words, Zhihao immediately made a few distances and drew out his weapon. Akasha chuckled as she ignored Zhihao and touched the red minerals like it is some treasure, she then spoke. "Did you know, there is something imprisoned in her?" Hearing her words, Zhihao didn''t let his guard down, but he has no idea on how powerful Akasha is, he could only try to pry it open layer by layer when the fight starts with her. "Oh, what kind of being is sealed in such an unbreakable prison?" Akasha looked at Zhihao and asked. "Want to hear a very short story?" Although Zhihao wouldn''t want to, but without knowing Akasha''s power, he might be stepping into his own graveyard, he sternly looked at Akasha before nodding his head. Seeing Zhihao nodded, a smile formed on her lips as she continued. "Not bad, I see that you are not that bad." Akasha threw a seductive gaze at Zhihhao after speaking, although it is alluring, Zhihao is too tense to have any reaction, he is too afraid of someone that even he couldn''t detect the power of, someone so much stronger than him. "Ahhh, such a boring guy you are, well, let me tell you something then, it happened a few hundred million years ago, something that had brought chaos even at the God''s Realm, your so-called Gods became corrupted..." Akasha paused for a bit, a sad smile formed in her lips as she shook her head and continued. "Let me change it on the one below this prison first, millions of years ago, the one under this crystals were one of the loyal pet of ours, Titans and the Gods'' Father, and our Father is a very strong monster, he could easily crush anything even with the Titans and Gods'' powers combined, we wouldn''t even manage to scratch his clothes." Akasha stopped as the smile on her face vanished, but what replaced it is a sad expression, she then looked back and continued. "But one day, he vanished, without a notice nor a trace, he left four of his eight pets, and one of those pets is lying below here, for millions of years." Somewhat like redemptions smile formed in her lips as she asked. "Do you know why? our Father''s pet, the supposed guardian is lying under such a seal, a prison for millions of years?" Zhihao shook his head and replied. "No." Akasha smiled as she continued. "Millions of years ago, the cornered Titan Realm was just living our lives normally, cultivating the way of our creator, but, we might''ve done something extremely sinful, the four loyal pet of our Father, made their way into our realm, killing their way into our base." Pausing for a bit, Akasha felt that she''s remembering extremely sad, her eyes moistened up but it dried up instantly before continuing. "Four of the greatest Titans joined forces to stop the advances of those four beasts, but with the predicament and superior strength of the four beasts, one of those four decided to make a stand, he sacrificed himself to kill those beasts. But it wasn''t enough, his power was only enough to injure them and decrease their power by 50% temporarily, but the other three Titan made sure that his sacrifice wasn''t in vain, the three of them and some other strong Titans joined forces to drag them down and kill those beasts one by one. The Titans made sure that those beasts became separated, together, they are extremely powerful, but separated, they are just slightly more powerful than our greatest Titan, but with the support of the whole Titan Realm, those beasts were driven to a corner. One of the beasts made sure that they will live, she made the other three retreat, but left herself in the Titan Realm to delay the chase, although the Titans had killed that beast, it kept reviving itself, and it becomes more powerful as time went by, we''ve decided that killing it wouldn''t do anything much, so we''ve sealed her." Akasha stopped as she looked at the crystal and tapped it three times. Ting! Ting! Ting! "That beast is sealed under these massive red crystals, the Celestial Red Krelzin, the toughest mineral in the whole of all five realms combined, no single power could break it, even the Titans, but implanting someone inside is easy." Zhihao smiled as he spoke. "Then, releasing that beast would help me in destroying your Titan Realm, thanks for the story, I deeply appreciate it." Akasha chuckled as she ignored and continued her story. "The one that sacrificed his life is my Father, ever since that time, I`ve protected this place like its a treasure..." After speaking, Akasha''s calm expression changed into a cold one before looking at Zhihao. "So, do you think I''d permit just anyone to ruin something that my Father last memento?" Just right after speaking, Akasha''s aura surged forth, immediately swallowing Zhihao whole, pressuring him without any chance of resisting. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he summoned the Supreme Martial God''s set, just after equipping it, Zhihao immediately withstood the pressure and stood up, looking at Akasha with eyes prepared to kill or be killed, but his resolve was destroyed by Akasha''s following word. "Not bad, you`ve withstood 1% of my power''s aura, you are not for a human, but let me ask, where did you get those armors of yours, it feels extremely familiar to me?" Hearing her words, Zhihao was frozen stiff, he had used everything to withstood her and disperse the power from earlier, but that was only a single percent of Akasha''s power. Akasha saw Zhihao''s reaction and chuckled, she then added a few words. "No need to be shock, just calm yourself for now, I`ll let you live for a few more minutes." Hearing Akasha''s words, Zhihao smiled as he calmed down, but he is still shaking. "How can I trust someone, who only knows how to bring chaos to the World." Akasha smiled as she shook her head and sighed, Akasha, this time used 3% of her power to pressure Zhihao. Zhihao immediately felt the pressure, he immediately knelt at the ground as two of his hands is trying to prevent him from slamming into the ground. Akasha''s aura stopped as she looked at Zhihao and spoke. "I don''t need you to believe me, I can do anything I want, but you... you can only live if I say so." Akasha stopped as she walked near Zhihao and whispered. "That''s the difference between Human and Titans." Chapter 214 Limits "That''s the difference between Human and Titans." Zhihao shudders hearing these words, but he calmed himself and walked a few steps back, making a distance between himself and Akasha. Then he looked at Akasha and spoke. "I may only be an ant in your eyes, but even an ant knows how to fight back." After speaking, Zhihao let out his Spiritual Energy and started to gather the Mana around him, causing a massive whirlpool around him, sucking almost all of the Mana in a 20 KM radius. Akasha chuckled as she tilted her head and waited for Zhihao patiently. Zhihao used everything he has to offer, all of his Spiritual Energy while also combining it with the Mana surrounding him. Zhihao opened his eyes as he looked dead serious at Akasha. "Will of the Supreme One!" This time, it looked like a real sword with a lot of armaments all over its body, it still felt extremely sharp, but this time, it is almost two times of what he had used to strike at Amro. "Ohhh!" Akasha smiled as she saw what Zhihao did. "So... you are not from this World? Interesting!" Zhihao ignored Akasha''s words, he couldn''t care less from what a Titan that is causing chaos in other worlds spoke of, the only thing on his mind is to destroy their plan. "Charge!" Zhihao released his skill and directly made it fly towards Akasha, he figured out that the crystals behind her would stop it. Akasha chuckles as she formed a few seals in her hand and made something come out in front of her. "Black hole." Akasha casually summoned a skill and followed up. "Astral Cage!" Two extremely powerful spells appear out of nowhere, the Black Hole sucked the skill towards its center, while the Astral Cage is in that location, the suction force of the Black Hole is directing all of Zhihao''s skill inside the Astral Cage, imprisoning the skill itself, all of the energy and mana that Zhihao had used were trapped inside. Seeing his most powerful skill destroyed in just a matter of second like without Akasha making any effort, Zhihao was speechless. "Not bad, for a human that is." Akasha looked at Zhihao expecting for something more, but after a few seconds of waiting, Zhihao is just standing there without doing anything. Akasha sighed as she spoke. "So that''s it? that''s your limit?" Zhihao woke up from his daze as he heard those words, he frowned as he took out three types of pills out of his Interspatial Ring. One is the Sacred Origin Pill, the other two are cultivation pills, one of the few hundreds that he had made before. Spiritual Explosion Pill, and Chaos Conversion Pill. Akasha looked at the pills that Zhihao had withdrawn from his Interspatial Ring, a smile formed in her lips. Before Zhihao could swallow all three of them, something happened, all of the three pills were gone from his hands, he immediately looked at Akasha and saw that those three pills are in her hand. "Oh, a Sacred Origin Pill? I thought you could only find these sort of things in the God''s Realm?" Akasha paused for a second before looking at Zhihao and continued: "Who are you, kid? why do you have such a great thing?" After speaking, Akasha threw the Pills back at Zhihao, she deemed the other two pills extremely low quality. Although Akasha deemed it great, it is not something worth to steal, such a thing is like a daily necessity out there in the Titan Realm. Zhihao caught the pills and ignored Akasha''s question, immediately swallowing the three pills. "Haaaa, such an impatient brat you are." After swallowing the Pills, Zhihao immediately restored his Spiritual Energy and with the addition of the other pills, something happened. Spiritual Explosion Pills does what the name itself, it makes the user of these Pills have their Spiritual Energy go berserk, multiplying his power by ten fold, but with a price to pay after just ten minutes, their cultivation would drop by a large margin. Chaos Conversion Pill would do the same thing, it would multiply the user''s power by five folds, but would decrease the user''s cultivation power. "Human, your effort is futile, even other Gods are having trouble dealing with me, how can a mere Human like you do something? Face it, you`ve already reached your limits!" Akasha felt the surge of power going on in Zhihao''s body, but it is still minuscule compared to the ones that she had faced before, even the weakest God she killed can squash this kind of person. Zhihao looked Akasha and spoke: "Limits?" Akasha looked at Zhihao when she heard him speak. "Yeah, limit, you wouldn''t be able to do something to me, a mere Mythical Realm pinnacle would hardly sate my appetite for fighting, I could just kill you, but I would be bored to death here, without any playing thing." Hearing her words, Zhihao frowned, then, he continued. "Then, I`ll just surpass those limits!" After speaking, Zhihao''s aura changed, he closed his eyes as he felt something inside his body is changing. *Ding!* =Congratulations! You`ve finally stepped into the Ranks of the Demi-God''s Realm, the first stage, the Lower stage. *Ding!* =The effects of the Pills in your body will change from the decrease of cultivation power into a temporary removal of power for a year. *Ding!* =70% of the Supreme Martial God''s set has been activated. *Ding!* =The second seal inside the Supreme Martial Sword has been broken, increasing its power by 100% from before. you`ve unlocked 30% of its true potential! *Ding!* =Berserker God''s Wrath Activated. *Ding!* =Berserker God''s Sin, Divine Dragon''s Wrath activated. Zhihao''s power soared so high, but he can only think of one thing after this, he''ll either die or become a cripple, with all of the side effects these powers will give him, he will definitely put one of his foot down the grave. Zhihao looked at Akasha and spoke. "I`m ready!" Zhihao spoke in a confident but nervous manner, his current cultivation level is at the Lower stage of the Demi-God''s Realm, but his current power lifted him to fake God''s Realm lower stage, equipped with the Supreme Martial God''s set, he can fight on equal terms with a God realm middle stage cultivator. Akasha''s eyes flashed brightly as she spoke. "Hahaha, Interesting, you are becoming more interesting by the second!" Chapter 215 Update by the Almighty Author.

Chapter 216 Voice Somewhere in the Wilds. Amro is training Dennison to improve on his defensive skills, the one that Amro had imparted him, but these skills weren''t the same as Amro''s greatest defensive skills, these ones are amongst the basics. "Good! Okay! that''s great, keep going, what? you''re already exhausted?" Dennison shook his head as he kept using the skill repeatedly. "Pentagon Block!" "Tortoise Shell!" "Thorn Mail!" "Blade Mail!" "Pant... Pant... True Defense!" "Great! you are doing some progress! we''ll only need 1,000 more years so that you can catch up to that kid, Zhihao''s current power." Amro kept provoking Dennison, trying to make him struggle harder. And, it is effective, Dennison is provoked, he kept using the same skills repeatedly, exhausting his mental and physical state to the limits. "Hahahaha, Great! Keep doing that!" Amro smiled satisfied: ''Well, it really will be an extremely long way to go until you can help that brat, but you will grow, definite...'' Amro is currently relaxed, but he felt an extremely familiar aura, something he dreaded so much since millions of years ago. Amro''s face immediately changes as he transformed into a ball of light and streaked across the horizon. "AKASHA!" Amro screamed at the top of his lungs, full of rage and hate. . ... Inside the Cave. Zhihao''s power finally halted at the God Realm middle stage, He looked at Akasha dead serious in dealing with her. Akasha smiled as she spoke: "I`ll definitely use all of my powers to deal with you, I hope you wouldn''t disappoint me." Zhihao looked at Akasha, wondering if he could finally deal with her in any way. "Will of the Supreme One!" This time, summoning the same skill again only used 1% of his full power, Zhihao was astounded, a smile formed on his lips as he started summoning more until there were ten of it. "Release!" Zhihao immediately made his skills strike at Akasha. "Hahahaha! Great! Great!" Akasha chuckles as she summoned her skills. "Black Hole!" "Astral Cage!" She summoned the same skills, but this time, it is three times bigger. Zhihao immediately waved his hands and controlled the direction of his skills. "OH! You can even do that?" Akasha became extremely excited, but all of Zhihao''s skills scattered midway, surrounding her from all direction. "Strike!" All of the ten skills that Zhihao had summoned rushed towards Akasha. Seeing this, Akasha''s expression further brightened as she exclaimed. "Ah! This is fun! Dark Spears!" After speaking, thousands of Dark Spears floated in up in the air, immediately striking Zhihao''s skills while trying to outrun them. But after Akasha''s dark spear had all been used, there are still three of Zhihao''s skill left, Akasha smiled wildly as she exclaimed. "Hahahaha, This is fun! This is definitely fun!" After speaking, Akasha used her skill too. "Dark Orbiter!" A lot of dark spherical things surrounded Zhihao''s skill, but Zhihao thought that it isn''t doing anything, a smile forms in his lips as he pushed "Will of the Supreme One" faster, trying to catch Akasha while she''s still running. Then, after a few seconds, Akasha stopped as used another of her skill. "Linear Ray!" A dark energy formed in the tip of her fingers as she pointed at Zhihao, and just after that, the dark energy in her fingertips extended extremely fast. Zhihao felt extreme danger and tried to evade, but before he could, it already pierced his left shoulder. Zhihao ignored it and continued to push his skills towards Akasha, then, something outrageous happens. The dark spherical energy surrounding his skills suddenly expanded and swallows the three"Will of the Supreme One." like it was nothing, something like a huge snake devouring a tiny mouse. Zhihao was in a daze, then, Akasha smiles as she immediately used another skill. "Gravity field!" Just right after that, Zhihao''s body felt extremely heavy as he knelt on the ground, he tried to fight it but it was too strong. Akasha chuckles at the sight as she smiles at Zhihao and spoke. "Is that all kid? we''ve barely started and you are already on your knees, or are you proposing to me?" Akasha pretended to blush as she touched her face with two of her hands and giggles, then out of nowhere, she felt an extremely dense heavenly energy, a smile formed on her lips as she spoke. "Wait for a bit, I`ll make a weak barrier, an old friend of mine wishes to meet me, but I`m currently in a private discussion with you, so I can''t have that happen." Akasha chuckles as she made a dark type of barrier around them, covering a 100 KM radius, after doing that, Akasha heard a shout. "AKASHA!" Akasha chuckles at the words and looked at Zhihao that seems to not have heard of it. Zhihao frowned, he felt extremely powerless against a Titan when she''s using all of her power, Zhihao could barely stand up against her, and he can clearly see that Akasha is only playing with him like a little child against a grown-up man. Gritting his teeth, he tried to fight against the extremely heavy gravity field, but he immediately fell flat on the ground. "Fighting it will do you no good, the more you struggle, the heavier it gets." Akasha smiles as she warned Zhihao, but after speaking, she sighs and is walking in a circle manner. "Ah, if you die, it will be boring, but I don''t want to train you, someone who''s beyond this World''s capabilities staying here means only one thing, you are planning something extremely dangerous." Akasha touches her head as she frowned and pondered for a bit. "Ah, what to do, what to do, it will be really boring to stay here for millions and millions of years without doing anything..." Hearing Akasha''s careless words, Zhihao''s will finally give in. ''Am I... too weak... I`m... useless... I even promised Arthariaz... that I will... That I will help him to the best of my abilities... but... I couldn''t even do anything against a single Titan..." Tears started to drop down from his eyes as he felt extreme hopelessness in his current situation, Zhihao felt saddened, with the things that had been progressing so far, he thought that he and the others might really be able to do it, that they could win and destroy the plan of the Titans. But he is currently fighting a single Titan and has been defeated without even managing to hit her once. Zhihao felt pained, such a thing, can he even do anything to a war between these sort of strong monsters, and based on Arthariaz''s knowledge, there are millions of Titans and Gods if he couldn''t even do a single thing to a single Titan, how could he even do anything. Then out of nowhere, a voice was heard. "Human, do you want the power to destroy all of your foes? I can grant you a wish for waking up this heavenly being from her slumber, I will grant you a single wish that is within my power." A heavy yet gentle voice sounded out of nowhere, Akasha immediately looked at the red crystals and spoke. "Not good!" Chapter 217 Déjà vu "Human, I can give you power, riches, anything that is in within my power, it will be granted." The voice stopped for a second before a powerful surge of Aura surfaced from the ground below, the feminine voice then continued. "Or... Kill that Titan that is playing with you..." When the voice finally stops, Akasha''s lips slowly moved upward as it formed into a smile. "Hahaha, you are imprisoned, I wonder, how will you even do that?" After speaking, Akasha increased her powers further and dashed towards Zhihao, aiming to kill him before he could make a wish. It only took just a 0.01 seconds, but before Akasha could reach Zhihao, blazing fiery flames surge forth, blocking her path and continued to pursue her. "Tch!" Akasha couldn''t help but retreat. "Black hole!" Akasha tried to block the flames with her skill, but when the flames entered the Blackhole, it immediate emerged from the other side of the black hole. "Stupid Rebirthing Flames!" After cursing, Akasha immediately dashed a few meters away. Akasha then increased her strength further, using 100% of her current strength, the ones that she had used before were only 10%, but she could already play with Zhihao like a child. But after the appearance of the mysterious voice, even though she''s currently on her weakened state, she could still fight back decently, on her full power, her current 100% is only 20% of it, which describe how weak Akasha is currently at. But who said that she''s the only one on a weakened state, the beast itself could only use part of her original strength. "Void!" Akasha calms herself as she uses another skill, the surrounding immediately turns dark as the flames vanishes without a trace of its previous glamour. "Hmmp!" Akasha smirks at the victory she had. Then a voice sounded: "These flames of mine, dies with time, but with time it burst back and defeat its foes!" After the voice stopped, a flickering light emerged from the shadow as many more followed. "Burn! o'' my Eternal Flames!" "Tsk!" Akasha felt the intense flames as it became excessively brighter, the heat started to pierce her skin. "Nether field!" Although this skill is of a dark element, after summoning it, the field neutralized the flames'' heat, but the flames are still there, shimering brighter than ever. Akasha finally stopped moving as the flames also didn''t chase further. The clash only lasted for 10 seconds, but a lot of things had already happened, Although blurry, Zhihao could still see a few glimpse of their fight. Zhihao could only speak in shock: "Such... such great exchange of power..." Zhihao already know what had happened, Akasha was just playing with him earlier, she had not used her full power on her, just a tiny bit of portion is enough to deal with him The mysterious voice then continued: "Human, I`m waiting for your wish." Akasha only stood there, waiting for Zhihao to make the wrong wish, if she wants to deal with this creature, she''ll need a few more back up, the same time millions of years ago, when she dealt with the this beast. But if Zhihao made a mistake, she could still kill him and escape unscathe. Hearing this, Zhihao woke up from his daze as he asked. "If i receive your power... your blessing, will I be able to deal with her?" The mysterious voice chukles as she replied: "No, the gap between the two of you are too wide, although it may seems such a tiny gap between a middle stage God Realm and a God Realm Pinnacle... a Titan Realm pinnacle, but the difference is like the heaven and the underworld." Pausing for a bit, the mysterious voice added: "When you`ve naturally stepped into the God realm yourself, you will know the difference, there are millions of pinnacle God Realms and Titan Realms, but still, the gap between them are huge, because... of a certain power." The mysterious voice stopped there, not wanting to explain things further. Zhihao nodded his head and replied: "Then, if I wish for you to kill her, would you be able to accomplish that?" Hearing Zhihao''s remark, Akasha smiled as she spoke: "Hahaha, well, kid, a very interesting person you are, we shall meet again." After speaking, Akasha immediately summoned a dimensional scar and went inside, vanishing without a single trace. Zhihao was astounded, he was shocked at such a display of running, he haven''t even wished for it, but Akasha immediately escaped. It felt extremely awkward right now, such a thing happened, and he didn''t know what to wish now. "If I wish for you to follow her and kill her, will you be able to do it?" The mysterious voice chuckles as she replied: "I wouldn''t even manage to injure her if I chase her with my current power, she had already fled back to the Realm of the Titans." Hearing this, Zhihao sighed, not knowing what to wish, then a sudden wisdom made its way to Zhihao''s head. ''What if, she was released, would she also target the Titans? then I would have an additional power, although it isn''t my own comrade, an addition wouldn''t be bad!'' Zhihao looked at the red crystals and asked. "I wish, for your freedom!" The mysterious voice didn''t reply, It was actually shocked at such a request, a smile forms on its lips as she spoke. "You wish for my freedom to help you fight with the Titans, am I right?" Zhihao without any hesitation smiles at the question and nodded. "Yep! Any help counts, I think that, someone who''s imprisoned for millions of years would like to have their veangeance, helping you would also be helping me too, its a win win for me." Hearing Zhihao''s response, the mysterious voice laughed out loud. "Hahahahaha! you are a very interesting kid!" With laughing as loud as that, the cave immediately vibrated as walls and ceiling started to shake. "Human, I deem you worthy of seeing my appearance! Be honored!" After the mysterious voice''s words, the hardest mineral in the universe broke down pieces by pieces as it started to melt. Seeing this, Zhihao can already guess how powerful this being is. A shadow of a very big creature is slowly making its way out of the hell hole that once was filled with the red crystal. Zhihao can already feel fear towards the creature, such a big silhouette that looks extremely formidable is approachin in his direction. "Human! Rejoice!" After speaking, the silhouette made its way out. Zhihao is currently looking at the ceiling, then, when the shadow vanished, he looked from behind him to check if its there. "Human! where do you think you are searching? I am here!" Zhihao followed the direction of the voice and saw something on the ground, he couldn''t help but exclaimed. "A BIRD?!" Chapter 218 Divine Treasure "A Bird?!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the bird''s left eye twitches: "What did you say, Human?" Zhihao woke up from his daze as he looked down at the Bird in bewilderment, it felt extremely familiar to him, this kind of scene. Scratching his head, Zhihao looked at the Bird and spoke: "Well, your current appearance looks like one." After speaking, Zhihao took a cellphone out of his Interspatial Ring and turned the camera on and immediately took a picture of the Bird. Kacha! The bird immediately went into a rage as she spoke: "How dare you try to blind thy powerful being such as myself!" After floating in the sky, the Bird summoned blood red colored flames, directed towards Zhihao. Zhihao immediately took another picture and a bright flash of white appeared. Totally enraged, the bird made its flame spear attack Zhihao. "Wait!" Zhihao stretched his hands with the phone on his hand as the phone screen is facing the Bird. The Bird immediately halted her attack and was shook, slowly, she descended from the sky and flew closer to Zhihao. "That is... that''s me?!" Zhihao smiled as he nodded: "Yep, that sure is you." "Woah! I really look like a bird! wait!" After speaking, the Bird morphed her body into an astounding bigger figure, she turned into a phoenix, bright red with a mix of yellow to red color. "Human, take a picture of me again!" After speaking, the Bird, which turned into a Phoenix flew into the air. Zhihao smiled as he took some pictures. Kacha! Kacha! After that, the Phoenix descended again and looked at the picture. "Ahh! it looks awkward on the second photo." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "Yes, let''s try something else." The Phoenix nodded as she flew again. Kacha! Kacha! After taking the shots, the Phoenix was about to go down, then Zhihao halted her and spoke. "How about you stand on that rock there." The Phoenix nodded her head as she followed his instruction and went to the rock. Kacha! Kacha! She heard a few more shots taken but didn''t mind it, she then sat on top of the rock and looked at Zhihao. "Good!" Kacha! Kacha! "Now, look at the side, try to look more solemn." The Phoenix nodded her head as she followed. Kacha! Kacha! "Now, open up your wings and make it look like you are about to fly." The Phoenix nodded her head as she did it. "Don''t look at me, look at somewhere else, like you are about to strike a prey above you." Following Zhihao''s instruction, the Phoenix did so. Kacha! Kacha! "Great! Now, look at these ones." The Phoenix nodded her head as she excitedly went towards Zhihao. "Here, look, this one is great!" Zhihao showed her all of the picture one by one. "Wow! That''s really great! Ah! that especially that one where I`m descending towards the rock!" The Phoenix felt extreme excitement towards the pictures. Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "It is great right?" "Un! what kind of divine treasure is this? how can It paint immediately?" Zhihao shook his head and spoke: "No, its a phone, it has a lot of..." But before Zhihao could finish, a shout is suddenly heard. "AKASHA!" A black figure full of hard armor went straight towards their direction. Zhihao saw this and immediately knew who it is. "Amro!" After Zhihao had called out, the Phoenix''s excitement stopped as she looked towards the direction where the Black Armored humanoid is coming from. Amro stopped his charge as he saw two familiar faces, his rage immediately vanished as he saw the figure flying in front of Zhihao, it was immediately replaced with excitement and longing, his heart felt a piercing pain as his breathing started to become unsteady, tears immediately fell from his eyes as he spoke in a low tone. "Si... Sister? Elder Sister!" When the Phoenix heard this, she also smiled with satisfaction. "Amro, come, come here with Big Sister." Hearing The Phoenix spoke, Amro nodded obediently with tears in his eyes as he walked closer. Zhihao was astounded, then became shocked at what followed. The two of them transformed into human beings but seemingly not 100% they are like gods with auras surrounding them. "Big Sister Riku!" Amro hugged his sister, the Phoenix, Riku tightly as he wept manly tears. Riku smiles at Amro and patted him on the head, she also had wet eyes from the tears threatening to fall anytime. "There, there, it is good now, I`m here." "Yes." After a while, the both of them parted. Amro then introduced Zhihao. "Sister, I`ll need to tell you a lot of things, but I`ll introduce you to someone first." Amro looked at Zhihao as he continued: "This is Zhihao, I am helping him to pursue our Master and our goal." Hearing this, Riku looked at Zhihao as she tilted her head and asked: "What do you mean by that?" Amro smiles as he closed his eyes, Riku also did the same. Zhihao couldn''t understand what they were doing, but seeing that the two of them were focused, he didn''t bother to intervene nor speak. Amro and Riku are both connected by their bond, the bond of their creator. the two of them are talking inside a World of their own, their own space. Amro showed his memory to Riku, the ones with Arthariaz in it, slowly, she finally understood what she meant, there was even the time with the Death God and how they were exiled from the Cultivation World of Gaelea. The both of them opened their eyes simultaneously and nodded. "I`ll definitely kill that b*stard!" Riku gritted her teeth, remembering the first memory that Amro had shown her, the one where Amro received the news of who killed Arthariaz. Calming herself up, she looked at Zhihao and transformed into a bird again and spoke. "I`ll also support you with your plan, what you`ve been doing now is good, but it is too slow, something like today might happen again." Hearing Riku''s word, Zhihao accepted it immediately and nodded: "I know, I''ve become too careless, but I wanted to grow stronger, the faster the better. And when I had detected a strange power coming from this area, I rushed here when I was available," Riku nodded and continued: "Be sure to be careful next time, Akasha is one of the greatest Titaness, but she is the greatest not because of her overwhelming power, but because of the Law that she had comprehended, the law of Space, even Amro, from before with his full strength couldn''t block all of her attacks, she could breach a tiny space and send the attack of her allies, which rendered most of Amro''s defense useless." Then she became serious and added: "She''s not strong, the great four Titan is a 100 times stronger than her, might even be a thousand more, remember your weakness and struggle harder, I and Amro will protect and help you grow stronger." Zhihao nodded his head in understanding: "Thank you." Zhihao bowed his head sincerely, a bow filled with gratitude. Riku smiles at Zhihao and spoke. "Don''t worry about it, just be sure to not fail us when the time comes." Zhihao nodded his head and smiled. "Yes, should we head back now? I need to introduce you to someone." Both Riku and Amro nodded, they already know who it is, the three of them flew upward as they started to head out of the cave. "Ahem." A sudden cough made Zhihao looked and saw Riku looking at him. "I need to request of you for something." Zhihao looked at her with a smile as she nodded: "What is it?" Riku hesitated for a bit before continuing. "Can I have that?" "What do you mean?" Zhihao asked with confusion. "That ''Phone'' that you are talking about earlier, I want that, but if its something extremely precious, I won''t force you too." Zhihao almost dropped down from the air hearing her request, he chuckles and replied. "No worries, I can buy a lot of these." After speaking, Zhihao threw the phone towards Riku. Riku caught the phone and a smile formed on her lips. Amro looked at the phone and asked: "Big Sister, what is that?" Riku smiles at Amro and replied. "A Divine Treasure." Chapter 219 Rikus Plan. The three of them finally arrived at the location above Ying Mai. Riku immediately felt something strange, she was astounded as she looked at the group of people below, she stared at Amro and Zhihao. Amro chuckles as he spoke: "Sis, that''s the person that our Young Master had picked for you." Riku looked at Zhihao and asked: "I can feel a very extreme synergy with her, she is?" "My Celestial General." Zhihao replied with excitement, Ying Mai is his very first Celestial General, and before she could have her own partner, Dennison, who is the second to join the ranks immediately received Amro''s power. Riku smiled as she nodded. "Let''s go." The three of them descended, Riku and Amro returned to their celestial beast form their human form. The moment that the three of them landed, although they did it silently, Ying Mai and Sylvia are both looking at them. "My Lord/Master." The both of them bowed sincerely and greeted. Zhihao nodded his head, Riku is currently in her small form behind him, not showing herself yet. Amro remembered something as he looked at Zhihao and spoke: "I`ll return to Dennison for now, I think he might''ve died, I left him for a few hours making him repeatedly using his skills, he must be extremely depleted, he must''ve collapsed already." Hearing this, Zhihao nodded his head. "Okay, good luck on your side." Amro nodded his head and immediately vanished. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and spoke. "Ying Mai, I`d like to introduce you to somebody, she will be your..." But before Zhihao could finish, Riku revealed herself and spoke in an almighty tone. "Be blessed human! Appreciate the being who''s in front of y..." But before Riku could finish, she was stopped immediately as someone has grabbed ahold of her body. "SOOO CUTE!" Ying Mai''s serious manner vanished completely as she hugged the ruby red bird flying in front of Zhihao. "This!! How dare!" Riku was astounded, but what followed is Ying Mai''s continues assault of words. "Ohh! such a fluffy cute bird! ahh! so gorgeous! such a beautiful bird!" Snap! A clear snap was heard as something broke in Riku''s mind. "Hmmp! good human! keep admiring! keep the praise going!" "It can talk! so cute!" "Hahaha! Human! go on! I like what I`m hearing!" Ying Mai hugged Riku as she kept flooding her with praises and such. Seeing this, Zhihao spoke. "I guess... I wouldn''t be having trouble making them closer." Zhihao looked at theYing Mai''s sudden change and couldn''t help staring at her for so long. Badum Badum! Zhihao felt extremely weird, a sudden beat inside his chest sounded and it felt extremely tight, light someone is caressing your heart gently. Zhihao immediately took back his stare away from Ying Mai and walked towards the throne and sat there trying to calm himself down. Riku, although is in a very great and loving mood, noticed what happened to Zhihao in the single second that it had sounded. A smile started to make its appearance in Riku''s smile as she glanced at Zhihao, the smile then turned into something wicked, like one of those that has a sudden plan made in their mind. Riku looked at Ying Mai and ask: "Hey, you are Zhihao''s? what?" Ying Mai blushes a little as she calmed herself up and replied: "I`m his, my Master''s Celestial General." Ying Mai answered full of resolution and dedication. But even with Ying Mai''s straightforward answer, Riku noticed a slight painful reaction toward''s Ying Mai''s heard and immediately knew what this is all about. "Ah, I thought you want to know how to get his heart, but I guess, I thought of it wrong, I guess..." Riku stopped as she looked at Sylvia and added: "I`ll just help her instead." Ying Mai followed Riku''s vision and saw that she is looking at Sylvia. "No!" Ying Mai couldn''t help but exclaim. Riku smiled as she spoke: "Don''t worry, I know, I`ll definitely help you." Ying Mai then suddenly realized something: "Wait, you can talk?" Riku opened her eyes widely and immediately replied. "Haven''t I been speaking from the sta..." But before she could finish her words, Ying Mai grabbed her and hugged her tightly and exclaimed. "Waaa! a cute, gorgeous, speaking bird! such a cute bird!" "This..." Riku was astounded, she then lifted her beak up and spoke: "There, there, keep the praise going, human! I like it! go on!" Riku kept accepting the praises, but although Riku is careless, she''s actually counting down on something, then a smile formed in her lips as she became serious and looked at Ying Mai. "Hey, I`m going to tell you something, you see your Master?" Ying Mai nodded her head and replied: "Yes, what is it?" "He will collapse, he had used a lot of techniques that will stress his power too much, and the side effect, is the lock of his cultivation, I kept making plans, but I`ll definitely be sure to make him fall for you completely, so go by his side in thirty seconds." Ying Mai nodded her head as she started to countdown in her thought. When the 30 seconds are up, Ying Mai walked closer towards Zhihao and spoke. "Master." Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and replied: "What is..." but before he could finish his words, his vision suddenly darkened and lost consciousness. "Master!" Ying Mai exclaimed as she immediately grabbed the falling Zhihao. Sylvia heard her scream and looked towards her direction. "My Lord!" Sylvia immediately rushed as she flew to Zhihao''s location, but before she could move further, a flame suddenly appeared and blocked her path. Riku then appeared in front of her and smiled. "Hey lady, sorry but, I`ll need to make some space for the two of them, you can go after her, okay?" After speaking, Riku descended to Ying Mai''s shoulder and clasped her wings. "We will be back in a month or less, just make sure to not make these people go and deal with the ''Demon Lord'' while we are out!" Afterward, a big dimensional scar appears below both Ying Mai and Zhihao fell immediately. Riku looked at Sylvia and spoke: "Don''t worry, you`ll have your time!" After speaking, Riku dives down inside the dimensional scar she created. . . ... Somewhere, from the sky, a scar within the heaven appeared out of nowhere. Two figures fell from it as a bird followed. The figures were Riki, Ying Mai and Zhihao, the two of them drops out of the dimensional scar as Riku followed them from behind. Ying Mai then tried to gather Mana to break their fall but was surprised that she couldn''t collect any Mana. Riku smiles seeing this and flapped her wings multiple times. Woosh! A strong gust of wind builds up on the ground upward, breaking the speed of Ying Mai and Zhihao''s fall. After making their way down, Ying Mai looks around and was shocked. Riku smiles as she spoke: "Like it? This is my very own, private World, this is the World created for me by our Father, the Omnipotent Being." Ying Mai nodded, she could see clearly see the beautiful atmosphere around. In the far northern place, she could see an ancient city, but there are a lot of people inside walking cheerfully. Riku then spoke: "This is my World, the Bloody Divine World, I hope you`ll like your stay here for a few months!" Chapter 220 Something Wrong "Welcome to my World! Bloody Divine! My own, personal World, one of the eight Celestial World!" Ying Mai was astounded as she looks at Riku. "Do you like it?" Riku asked as she looked at Ying Mai, waiting for her response. Ying Mai nodded her head as she looks at the environment, she was too awed struck and exclaimed. "What a great World!" There are birds as big as a dragon, monsters as big as a whale, a lot of trees as big as a mountain, and mountains reaching the heavens. A few miles away, Ying Mai can see a big town, somewhat like a ancient china, but there''s something different, there is a City in the sky as big as the mountains with a lot gems as big as houses surrounding it, like some sort of mystic element floating all around it. Riku smiled as she spoke. "I`m not going to explain a lot, but the power here is different compared to the ones from outside my World, this is my own world, a Celestial World." Ying Mai looked at Riku as she ask: "What do you mean Celestial World?" Riku chuckles as she proudly lifted her chin up and spoke: "The power here, is stronger than the Gods Realm, or the Titan Realm, but sadly... haaa... our creator forbid us from involving the people of our World to the Worldy affairs of the Gods and Titans." Ying Mai nodded and asked again. "Why?" "Because, the strongest person in my Celestial World, can slaughter his or her way to the Gods Realm." Hearing Riku''s reply, Ying Mai was astounded, she nodded immediately as she looks at Zhihao. ''Maybe... just maybe, he`ll get stronger if he stays here." Riku saw Ying Mai''s expression and immediately knew what she is thinking. "Sadly, the power here, is something, that the both of you wouldn''t ever be able to comprehend, but there is some thing that you can learn here, a lot." Ying Mai nodded. "Then, what should we do for now?" "First, head into that small village there, and try to look for a place to stay." Ying Mai nodded her head as she carried Zhihao in a princess style and walked forward. Seeing this, Riku chuckles as she exclaimed. "Wait, wait, here, use this." After speaking, Riku summoned a carriage out with a demon beast the looks like a big allegator and has a shell covering it all over its body. Riku flapped her wings again as she summons a pouch looking thing, she immediately handed it to Ying Mai and spoke. "Go and take it, that pouch is what we use in this World, it also has the same effects as a interspatial Ring, but that''s the very first invention of Interspatial storage, which is a very old fashion, there will be money inside of it, you will need it. Now go and board the carriage, that beast will automatically move." Ying Mai nodded her head as she brought Zhihao inside, after sitting, Ying Mai laid Zhihao''s head on her lap. Seeing the innocent sleeping face of Zhihao, Ying Mai couldn''t help as a smile forms on her lips. Riku smiles at the sight and spoke: "Why not take advantage of him? you know, **** him." Hearing Riku''s words, Ying Mai opened her mouth and eyes widely as she looked at Riku in shock. "I... I... I won''t ever do something like that! Ever!" Riku chukles as she added. "Well, a cooked rice would definitely ensure your future with him, if you know what I mean." Riku spoke as she repeatedly lifted her eyebrows, hinting on something. Ying Mai blushes as she pondered. "Sh..Should I?" Riku repeatedly nodded. Ying Mai lost her focus as she closes her face to Zhihao''s. A smile forms in Riku''s lips and giggles. And just as soon as her lips intertwines with Zhihao, she started to feel the heat in her body calmly taking over her body, she then closed her eyes and let her instinct lead her. But as soon as she enters in the mood, Riku chuckles. "Fufu.." Ying Mai opens her eyes and saw Zhihao''s eyes wide open staring at her in wide shock. She immediately parted her lips from Zhihao''s as Zhihao stood up from Ying Mai''s lap and sat at the corner, like some teenage girl that was taken advantage of. Ying Mai immediately fixed herself up and avoided Zhihao''s gaze. Riku looked at the both of them and spoke: "Hey, based on what I saw from Amro''s memory, you already took advantage of my partner here, right Mai?" Hearing Riku''s words, the both of them remembered what had happened from when Zhihao was drunk, both Zhihao and Ying Mai blushes further remembering what had happened from before. "Ahh... A bunch of innocent people." Zhihao then remembered something as he looked at Riku and asked: "Then... the ones with..." "Yep! the ones with your three beautiful wives too." Zhihao sighs as he shook his head, trying to ignore Riku''s words. Then, out of nowhere, a lot of noise came from outside, attracting the attention of both Ying Mai and Zhihao. "Wow! look at that grand carriage, a Frulaktor, a rank 9 Demon Beast!" "Something so powerful is actually used to pull a carriage? from which powerful sky city did it come from?" "Must be from the most powerful Sky City near ours" "There are only two other Sky city away from ours, and that is the Eih Sky City, and Ayh Sky City, they might have come from one of them." "Un! but what are they doing here?" Hearing them, Zhihao looked ouside as he saw a lot of people dressed averagely, but they are excuding some weird power, he looked at Ying Mai and asked. "Where are we?" Ying Mai immediately went back to her originally serious expression and replied: "Master, we are in a Celestial World that is privately owned by Riku, Bloody Divine." Hearing her reply, Zhihao looked at Riku and asked. "What are we doing here Riku?" But to his surprise, the cheerful bird, Riku, is dead silent as her mood felt extremely serious, like she is in a really bad mood. Then out of nowhere, Riku spoke. "Something is wrong here." Chapter 221 You are not Qualified "Something is wrong here." Zhihao was ignored by Riku, but what Riku had spoken took his attention. "What do you mean?" They are currently inside Riku''s World, and if she said something is wrong, then something must''ve changed from its previous luster. Riku looked at Zhihao and replied. "Don''t worry about it, it just feels like the Celestial Energy within this World is dense." Zhihao looked at Riku and spoke: "Dense? then isn''t that great? your citizens will be so much stronger than before." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Riku shook her head as she replied: "Well if you come back to the Cultivation World and immediately felt that the density of the Spiritual Energy is million times stronger than before, would you think it is great?" Zhihao was shocked at such a thing, if those things are true, then there could only be a few reasons. "What is the problem?" Riku pondered for a bit, after a while, a serious expression appeared on her face and spoke. "I could only think of a few reasons, one is that my World, evolved further on my absence and the inhabitants inside couldn''t drain it." Pausing for again for a few seconds, Riku continued: "Or that, the inhabitants of my World has weakened, they have not properly consumed the Celestial Energy and it stacked so much that it has now come to this state." Zhihao looked at Riku who''s expression is extremely in a bad mood, he then asked: "What''s the bad thing about it?" Riku looked at Zhihao as she replied: "The worst outcome is, my Celestial World will explode and it will go back to the time that I first made it." Hearing those words is shocked, Ying Mai then asked. "How many inhabitants live in your World?" Riku closes her eyes and went into her very own World. Inside her head, a World appears, Riku is in her human form, waving her hands back and forth, then after a while, some ancient texts appeared together with a lot of seals like some sutra. Riku read those words as a frown appeared on her face. Returning to the physical world, Riku looked at Ying Mai and replied. "There are 2,180,240,988 inhabitants living in my World, double of the population that my World previously had." Both Zhihao and Ying Mai frowned, that''s a big number. Riku looked at them and added: "That population is occupying 5% of my World, while monsters are occupying 53%" Zhihao was shocked. "How big is your Celestial World Riku?" Riku pondered for a while before replying: "Well, about a thousand times bigger than your Cultivation World." "That''s extremely big!" Zhihao and Ying Mai simultaneously exclaimed. Riku was about to reply, but someone outside shouted. "Halt!" Riku stopped what she''s about to say, Zhihao and Ying Mai looked outside and saw that they are already in the entrance of the City. Seeing Zhihao''s face, the guard is slightly hesitant, but he still asked. "Sir, do you have a Phoenix pass? or will you pay?" Zhihao immediately made his head go back inside and looked at Riku. "What do I do?" Riku looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "There is a pass inside the pouch I gave you." Ying Mai nodded as she scanned, then a wooden tablet is inside with a phoenix inscribed with a wing in the upper part of it. Ying Mai withdrew it out of the pouch and immediately handed it to Zhihao. After taking the pass, Zhihao immediately passed it to the guard. The guard nodded and received it, retrieving his stare, he looked at the Phoenix pass that Zhihao gave, but seeing the Phoenix pass, the guard was shaking, he immediately became scared as he handed it back to Zhihao. "Pardon me for stopping your carriage, your Majesty!" Seeing their Guard captain shaking in fear, the rest of the guards became scared and opened the gate immediately. The demon beast immediately entered seeing the gate finally opened. A silhouette in the distance saw these and frowned, she immediately vanished into the shadow and stealthily followed. Riku noticed this as a smile formed on her lips. Ying Mai also noticed bug just tried to ignore it. Zhihao was astounded: "Shouldn''t you give us something to make us take a little low profile." Zhihao''s power is currently sealed due to the side effects of the power he had used against Akasha. Riku smiled as she replied: "Don''t worry, just go and find an Inn for the both of you to stay." Zhihao sighs as he let Riku do what she wants. After a while, the carriage stopped in front of an Inn. Zhihao and Ying Mai walked out of the carriage, Riku landed in Ying Mai''s shoulder and unsummoned the carriage and inserted it inside her own dimension. The three of them walked towards the Inn, then a silhouette appeared out of nowhere, covered in a black rode, glaring madly at Zhihao and spoke. "Traitorous b*stards! I`ll have your neck serve in a silver platter!" Zhihao looked at the silhouette in shock: "What do you mean by that?" The one in black robe didn''t reply and immediately dashed forward, pulling out a sword out of nowhere as the one in the black robe pointing it at Zhihao''s heart directly. Ying Mai immediately stood in front of Zhihao as she glared at the black-robed man. Seeing this, the black-robed man was shocked but immediately increased his phase. "Royal Swordsmanship: #21 Phoenix Pierce!" A surge of power was summoned as he continued his pierce, a red stone floated above the black-robed man as the sword is immediately wrapped in some mysterious power, but it resembles something, an extremely fiery flame. Ying Mai opened her eyes widely and spoke. "Playing fires in front of me! You are not qualified!" Ying Mai held her hand out as her thumb and index fingers caught the sword, the flames wrapping the sword immediately dissipated as the sword shattered to pieces. Ying Mai summoned her own flames as the flames wrapped around her, it immediately formed into two wings and immediately blew away the robed man, throwing him a few meters away. "Do not ever think, that I`ll let you die an easy death!" Chapter 222 Blythe Cantar "Never point that filthy sword of yours to someone you will never be able to afford to offend!" Ying Mai''s countenance is that one of a demon, looking at a very sinful creature, preparing for its judgment. Ying Mai gathered her spiritual energy at the tip of her fingers ready to strike. "Wait." Zhihao spoke, halting Ying Mai''s attack. He looked at the man covered in the black robe as he continued. "What do you mean by traitorous?" The man wearing a black robe chuckled at the question as he removed his hood, a man in his early 40s with a mark that seemed to be a Yin and Yang appears on his forehead, a mark that seemed to look like a birthmark. "Royalty, Immortal Clan." Riku spoke inside both Ying Mai and Zhihao''s mind. Hearing her words, Zhihao nodded and looked at the man. "What do I mean by traitorous? your family is the ones I am talking about! Your family betrayed the Royal family and took control of the Bhie Sky City!" Ying Mai''s eyes kept looking at the man, wanting to kill him as soon as Zhihao gave his order. Her beloved one''s Family is getting cursed without any proof, making her extremely enrage. Zhihao nodded his head, he ignored the words as he knew that the man is visualizing somebody else different from his family. "I`m not from any Family owning any Sky City, I`m just a traveling merchant, and I`m here to make some living expenses, I received this one from a friend that I had made on one of my travels." Zhihao took out the pass and showed it to the man, behind it, there is a written word, Celestial, seeing this, the man was astounded. ''Celestial!?'' The Man''s thoughts ran wild, the pass with Celestial inscribed in the back of a pass is limited to only a limited people, and a pass like this has not been used for millions of years. "My Lord! Forgive this one for my rude behavior! I`ll gladly die for my own mistakes, please don''t involve my relatives in this." The man pulled out a dagger and held it up and immediately aimed it at his heart and struck, but before it could reach its aim, it immediately halts midway as someone grabbed the edge of it. The hand that held it started to bleed, Zhihao looked at the silhouette, he was about to stop it too when it nears the man''s stomach, but someone did it in his stead, a little earlier than his plan. It is a woman and looks like she''s in between 17 to 20 years old, violet radiant hair and eyes, silky smooth skin, and a great figure to boot. The woman looked at Zhihao and spoke: "I am the one in charge of this man and if anyone is in need to suffer, make me be responsible in his stead." The woman arrived late, but she still heard a few things, especially from the time that Zhihao revealed the Celestial branded Phoenix pass. Zhihao looked at the woman and chuckles. "I`m not planning to have him dead, you can look at the tip of the dagger." The woman looked at the tip of the dagger and was astounded, almost half of it is removed, and even if the man struck it in his chest, in maximum, he will only receive a slightly serious injury. Seeing this, the woman bowed deeply as she spoke: "Thank you for your magnanimous decision your Majesty, please let me pay this debt of gratitude." Zhihao chuckles as he looked at the inn and spoke. "Do you have any place to stay? we''d like to have and have a free rent instead, will that be great to pay your debt? and just call me Zhihao." The woman shook her head and replied: "Sorry your majesty, but our humble abode would be a too low class for your taste to stay, and you staying there would make me owe you more instead of paying my debt." Zhihao was astounded, he chuckles at the display of attitude this lady is showing him, a smile formed in his lips as he added. "Well, I want to stay there, it is free, and that is better for me, if staying in there is not enough, I`ll think of something to add later, that would make us even by then." The woman frowned as she looked at Zhihao, thinking that Zhihao is planning to do something. She nodded her head and replied: "Of course, I already warned you, don''t regret it later... Your... Ma... Jes...Ty..." The woman intentionally slowed down her words, pouring every syllable slowly, one by one. Zhihao was astounded yet again and in his thought. ''What an attitude! hahaha.'' Zhihao nodded his head and spoke: "Then, lead the way." The woman rolled her eyes and started to walk, not even replying. The old man stood up as he looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Your Majesty, forgive her for the behavior, she was a sweet child before, but circumstances forced her to toughen up." Zhihao nodded as he walked and followed the lady''s direction. The old man followed behind Ying Mai and spoke: "Your Majesty, my name is Ollie." Zhihao nodded as he replied: "A good name." But in his thought, Zhihao is thinking. ''What does Ollie mean?'' He kept this thought in his mind as they continued walking. After just a few minutes, they finally arrived at the far corner of the City. Zhihao was astounded, this place looks like a slum. "Young Miss!" "Young Miss!" All of the people immediately greeted seeing the Lady coming back from her walk. There are about 40 people in the small courtyard, with about 50 houses in total, everything looks terrible as holes in the ceiling can be seen and a lot of the woods are starting to break due to it being overused for a long time. The lady looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Well, I hope your Majesty wouldn''t regret his decision, my name is Blythe, Blythe Cantor, if you wish to know something else, be sure to call me first before my people." After speaking, Blythe immediately walked out and headed to the house in the middle of the courtyard, not even waiting for Zhihao''s reply. Zhihao chuckles as he spoke: "What a great attitude indeed." Zhihao looked at Ollie as he asked: "Where do we stay?" Ollie scratched his head as he replied: "Your Majesty, you can stay in my home first, I`ll stay with Blythe in her house for the time being with my Family." Ollie bowed and added: "Your Majesty, don''t worry, we usually do this, Blythe is my niece, so it is actually not a problem for us." Hearing this, Zhihao nodded as Ollie led the way towards his home. Chapter 223 I`m Helping! Zhihao and Ying Mai settled inside Ollie''s residence. "It is weird." Riku''s voice suddenly sounded. Both of them, Zhihao and Ying Mai looked at Riku in a bewildered manner. "What do you mean weird?" Zhihao asked, wanting to satisfy his curiosity. Riku looked at him as she replied: "The way, that man, Ollie uses his power, doesn''t contain any laws." "Laws?" Riku immediately replied: "Laws are the type of power my celestial world posses, it is the strongest power within my own World." Hearing this Zhihao''s curiosity peaked. "What do these ''Laws'' do?" Riku puffed out her fluffy bird chest as she proudly spoke: "It is the power to control the Elements, things, or if you reach to a very higher power, you can even control life and death, making it follow your will." "Like elemental power?" Riku rolled her eyes as she continued: "No, for example, the Laws of wood, you can generate different kinds of plantations appear as you will your power." After speaking, Riku looked at Zhihao, seeing that he still couldn''t get it, she sighed and continued. "More example is, Law of sharpness, Law of solidity, Law of fire, Law of creativity, Law of softness, and many more, so long as you can comprehend it to the limits, you can gain enlightenment towards the Laws, and after you reach a set amount of experience, you can grow stronger and stronger." Zhihao finally got a gist of it and nodded repeatedly. "What''s the base power here? how do you level your power here? Is it the same as ours?" Riku sighed, she didn''t think that bringing Zhihao here would cause her to receive a lot of annoying questions. "No, There are three levels of powers here." "Only three?" Zhihao asked in astonishment. Riku nodded then continued: "The first level is, what you saw that Ollie had used, that is Empowerment, using elements to help you in your fight, embedding the elements inside your weapon or armor." Pausing for a bit, Riku continued: "The second level is Celestiality, you can wield the power of elements yourself, aiding you in your battle, with the power of Celestiality, like your Heavenly Establishment realm, you can float, but after you reach the level of Celestiality, your power would be able to have the same strength as a Demi-God realm''s cultivator, and even reach the God Realm lower stage." Hearing this, Zhihao and Ying Mai is both shocked, such a huge leap in power. Zhihao looked at Riku and asked. "The third is?" "The third power is, the power of Law, like what I had told you before, it is a power of different quality, you can either make a weak Law or a strong Law, the choice is yours, in the cultivation world, it is termed as ''DAO'', the path that you choose and wishes to pursue, the way you want to strive, the way for perfection in that path." Hearing Riku, both Zhihao and Ying Mai nodded. "Then, how strong can one be once they comprehended the power of Law?" Riku sighs, she can clearly see the blaze in Zhihao''s eyes after asking the question, Zhihao wants the strength to support him through his path, Zhihao''s pursue in helping their Young Master, Arthariaz, in foiling the enemy''s plan, crushing the Titans. Riku couldn''t help but shake her head: "Let me say it first, you wouldn''t be able to receive nor get anything out of my World, that is design by the Omnipotent Being, our creator, our first Master''s rule, we wouldn''t be able to do anything to change it." Riku stopped as she looked at Zhihao, in a very stern warning before continuing: "If you made it to the third level, the power of Laws, you will have the same power as a God''s Realm lower stage, and if you can master it to the limits, the highest that I had seen is, he could fight me while I`m using 40% of my full power." Hearing this, Zhihao and Ying Mai were both stunned, but Zhihao is in a more shock, he already saw how Riku had fought before, she was only on 30% of her full power, but the fight is already too extreme for him, even when he had fully powered himself, using all sorts of abilities and pills. "Do you both understand?" "Is there any different stages between these levels?" Zhihao asked. "Yeah, they go with the 1st stage to 10th stage, for Empowerment and Celestiality, but for Laws, there are none, it just goes with what you have comprehended," Riku explained, slightly lazy. Nodding his head, Zhihao then asked again: "Then what is the stage of what Ollie had used before?" "1st stage." Seeing that Riku is already too lazy to explain further, Zhihao nodded, he then looked at Riku and Ying Mai: "Let us rest for the day, we should do some things tomorrow." Riku just sighed as she flew to the table and closed her eyes. Zhihao looked around as he found out that there is only a single bed, he looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "You take the bed, I`ll sleep on the floor." Ying Mai shook her head and replied: "Master, I`d rather die than make you sleep on the floor, you should go and sleep on the bed as I go to the floor." Hearing them, Riku opened her eyes and shouted: "The both of you sleep on the bed!" After shouting, Riku blew a strong gust of wind aiming at the both of them as she threw them towards the bed. "Now sleep there and it''s settled!" After shouting, Riku immediately used her power as red metal cages appear surrounding the bed, making them unable to go out. "This... what are you doing?" Ying Mai asks in shock. "I`m helping you to **** him!" Riku shouted as she flew in the air and added: "You enjoy his embrace, I`ll go and visit my Celestial Phoenix Mountain." Without waiting for their reply, Riku took flight as she left them in their room. The both of them, Ying Mai and Zhihao looked at each other as an awkward atmosphere surrounded them, they then laid in the bed and tried to sleep. "Sleep well." "You too Master." Chapter 224 I Want your Body Morning easily came to the New World. Zhihao and Ying Mai couldn''t sleep until it is almost morning, 10:00 AM in the morning, Zhihao woke up and slightly felt some weight above his body. Opening his eyes slowly, Zhihao saw two round mounds in front of him, snow white mounds, Zhihao moved his hands but it seemed stuck on something, he then opened his eyes widely and noticed that above the two snow mounds, he saw a face, Ying Mai''s face to be exact. Zhihao was shocked, he tried to break free, but with his powers sealed, he couldn''t budge an inch. With Zhihao''s continues assault, Ying Mai frowned as she moaned. "Unnn..." And after that, her hands and tighs hugged Zhihao''s body tighter. Ying Mai is in a fantastic dream, where Zhihao is in her embrace and he finally accepted her as his wife, such a fantastic dream, Ying Mai wouldn''t want to even wake up. "This... Ying Mai, wake up." Ying Mai slowly opens her eyes, seeing Zhihao''s face, it felt that her dream continued, she hugs Zhihao tighter, leveraging on her fantasies for an additional time, trying to extend her dream some more. "Ying Mai... wake up?" Hearing Zhihao''s words again, Ying Mai frowned, she focuses her gaze in Zhihao''s face, trying to make amends with reality and her dream, and in just about three seconds, Ying Mai realized that she''s already awake. Removing her limbs away from Zhihao, she stood up and fixed her clothes, which is a little disordered, and when I say disordered, it is extremely loose, her two peaks is almost out of her robe. "Sorry Master, I thought I`m still in my dream, so I hugged you tighter." Ying Mai blushes after speaking, then realized something, she blushed further after thinking of the words that she had said. Zhihao immediately realized the meaning in Ying Mai''s words. ''So, you hugged me tighter when you thought that you are still in a dream hugging me there?!'' "Ahem, well it''s alright, we should eat for now," Zhihao spoke, trying to remove the awkward situation between the two of them. "Un!" Ying Mai stood up and walked out of the bed, she then remembered something and looked at the surrounding, the cage that Riku has made yesterday is already gone. The both of them, Zhihao and Ying Mai walked out of the house. "Rich people really wake up late, especially the lazy ones." A voice sounded with sharp tones, carrying disdain in it. Ying Mai and Zhihao looked at the direction where it came from and saw Blythe standing in front of the house with both of her hands on her hips. "Time to eat, come with me." After speaking, Blythe walked towards the direction to the back of her house. Zhihao sighs as he nodded and followed, Ying Mai then walked behind him as she smiled, reminiscing the time that she had hugged Zhihao''s body when she''s sleeping. Expression of bliss can be seen on her face like a goddess blessed to just make everyone''s mood bright. Arriving at the back of the Courtyard, Zhihao saw the men and women that greeted Blythe yesterday, lining up to a very big cauldron which seemed to contain soup inside. Ying Mai and Zhihao also lined up, when it is their turn, the both of them took the wooden bowl that seemed to have been overused, dents and chips can be seen everywhere, the one Zhihao took out even has a crack forming from left to right. The one that is serving smiled as she poured the soup into the bowl until it is full. Zhihao tasted it and was astounded. ''They have such a bad condition, how are they surviving? and why are they serving a Young Miss that they couldn''t even get anything from?'' The soup contains something incredible that even his previous self would find a pity. The soup is just flour, water, and salt, not even a single rice can be seen, "Hmmp! I just wish you don''t regret your decision, my Lord." Carrying the same tone with disdain, Blythe sipped on the soup slowly, trying to cherish every single drop of it. Zhihao sighed and ignored her, he could only feel pity for her status and the people under serving her. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and drank the soup dry, not wasting a single drop. Seeing that even her Master is drinking it, Ying Mai didn''t hesitate at all and drank the soup in one gulp. "We''re having a feast!" A loud noise sounded as someone exclaimed, a tall man with a skinny yet properly built body appeared. Both Ying Mai and Zhihao looked at saw Ollie, holding something in his hand. "We''ve hunter a beast outside, hahaha, we will be having meat in our table tonight!" Ollie waved his hand holding a dead monster in it, the monster has the same size as that of a rabbit, only bigger. Zhihao is shocked, a feast for a meat that small? "Wow! Uncle Ollie caught a Warthog!" "This is really great!" "Meat will go on our stomach again!" "Yay! Meat! Meat! it''s been three months since I had one!" The children went into chatter as they happily exclaimed, while all the parents smiled, all the meat will go to the children, while they are satisfied with just the taste of the meat will mix with the soup tonight. The children are their life, so long as they can join a power, they could lead to a happy life, not striving for scraps, so long as their children can have a better life, they are even willing to sacrifice their life. Seeing this sight, Zhihao felt his chest tightened, the scene of a family really touches his heart to its limits. Zhihao then suddenly thought of something as he looked at Blythe. "I know what you can pay me with." Blythe snorted as she asked: "What is it? do you want the meat for yourself?" All of them, including the children, they looked at Zhihao waiting for his answer. Blythe has already brief them of Zhihao, that they owe them Ollie''s life, if giving up on the meat for a favor, they are willing to accept such a term. The children are sad, but they already accepted it, they are already matured due to the circumstances that they were pushed to. Zhihao smiled as he shook his head and answered: "No, I`ll be needing your body." Hearing this, all of the nice faces around them turned from sadness into anger, all of them glared at Zhihao preparing to attack even if they die in the progress. Blythe was shocked at first, but then she shook her head and waved her hand to all of them. "Okay, I accept, do you want it now or do you want it later?" What''s running in her mind right now is, even if she''ll turn into a concubine, it will be acceptable so long as she could have a chance to take her chance and make the lives of her subordinates better. "Young Miss!" "Young Miss!" Everyone stood up trying to stop her, Blythe glared at them instead. "How about now? Let''s go." Zhihao spoke as he walked out of the backyard and headed outside, Ying Mai followed him, she wasn''t shock at all, she just knew one thing, her Master, Zhihao is bad at wording things, which means, they must''ve misunderstood him to what he really intend to say. A sad expression appeared in Blythe''s face as she sadly followed, she looked at her subordinates and spoke. "Do not follow nor make any commotion, I''ve made my decision and nobody can influence it." All of her subordinates gritted her teeth, some even prepared some sharp stones or rusted knives, if something happens and their Young Miss really became a sacrifice, they''ll just have to sacrifice their lives to atone for it. Zhihao walked inside the ruined house of Ollie''s residence and sat on the floor while Ying Mai stood beside him. Blythe followed inside as her heart pounding extremely fast, she looked at Zhihao and disdain can be seen in her eyes, she then removed the top of her clothes slowly. Seeing this, Zhihao''s eyes widened and exclaimed. "What are you doing?! Stop!" Blythe was shocked: "What do you mean? didn''t you say that you needed my body?" Realizing that Zhihao made a misunderstanding, Zhihao shook his head and spoke. "No, I just want to ask you something and let you help me in some matters!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, Blythe blushed as she exclaimed. "WHY DIDN''T YOU TELL ME THAT EARLIER! CAUSING SO MUCH MISUNDERSTANDING WITH YOUR WORDS!" Chapter 225 Weapons and Elixir Zhihao looked at Blythe as she asked. "How much does it cost to own a shop in this City?" Blythe looked at Zhihao in wonder but still replied: "That would cost about 1,000 white phoenix gold for a year." After speaking, a smug look appeared in Blythe''s face, somewhat like a winning girl: ''You thought it will be easy? not a chance at all, hmmp, let''s see how you can face it.'' Zhihao was shocked: ''White phoenix gold? What the hell is that?'' Zhihao looked at Ying Mai, wanting for her to explain. Seemingly to understand what Zhihao''s look means, she pulled out the interspatial pouch out of her bosom, she looked at the inside and saw a pile of red and black gold that''s forming a mountain inside it, she then withdrew five pieces black piece of gold. The red one is radiating seemed to be radiating so much mysterious power, while the black one is also radiating the same mysterious power but the power inside it is a little too mild, compared to the denseness of the mysterious power flowing inside the Red gold coins. Considering how Zhihao had always acted, he definitely wants to become low profile, so she withdrew a few black gold coins out of the heeps, there is no white gold so she thought that pulling out the interspatial pouch. Ying Mai threw a piece of black gold coin towards Blythe and handed the four black gold coins to Zhihao together with the Interspatial pouch. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and spoke through spiritual communication. "Where''d you get this pouch from?" Zhihao took a look inside and saw a lot of treasures in it, he was shocked and asked Ying Mai for information. "Master, that was given to me by Riku when you were unconscious." Zhihao nodded his head, the both of them then looked at Blythe but is astounded at the sight. Blythe is opening her eyes widely open while the black phoenix gold is on her hands, her hand is shaking as she held on to the black gold that Ying Mai had thrown to her, like holding a treasure. Realizing that Zhihao and Ying Mai is looking at her, she closed her widely opened mouth and spoke: "I..I`ll... I`ll look for a shop, and return you the change after." Blythe realized that Zhihao and Ying Mai really came from a very rich place, she also saw Ying Mai pulled other Black Phoenix Gold together with the one on her hand. The biggest amount of black phoenix gold that she had seen before only amounts to be between 10 to 20 pieces and that was a very long time ago when her life is extremely different from what she has now. Zhihao and Ying Mai didn''t ask any questions like "Is that enough." or "How much does it cost." but only waited for Blythe''s response, and seeing her response, it seemed that that black gold is much more valuable than what she had said before, the white phoenix gold. "Don''t worry about it, how about, use the rest of the gold and spend it to have a feast." Hearing Zhihao''s word, Blythe''s countenance, the stoic expression on her face vanished, all the walls that she had placed around her heart crumble one by one, the feeling of warmth entered deeply, engraving the words Zhihao had spoken. Although Zhihao has no clue, a Black Phoenix Gold would amount to 50,000 white gold coins, and Blythe''s current circumstance, she and her subordinates only earn 50 to 100 white phoenix gold coins in a month. "Waaaa! Waaaa! Waaaa! Huuu! Waaa!" Zhihao is giving her 49,000 white phoenix gold, someone who is cold towards him, someone that he had known for not even a single day, helping her group of strangers out of his good will. Due to some circumstances, she distanced herself from outsiders, only trusting the few people under her and her family(Uncle, Aunt, and Cousin.) But due to Zhihao''s grace, her walls crushed simultaneously. Zhihao is bewildered, he has no idea of what he had just done, that he''d given a really big amount of money to a stranger, he stood up and walked towards Blythe and patted her head. Then, Something unexpected happened, Blythe, who seemed to be so mature suddenly leaped and hugged Zhihao tightly and made his robe wet with her tears. Riku had just arrived and saw the scene, she chuckles at Ying Mai and spoke internally to her. "Even a child is beating you, how weak you are." Ying Mai heard it as her eyebrows twitched, she then walked closer and was about to pull Blythe away from her Master, but then, the door suddenly opened as a group of people "Young Miss!" "Young Miss!" Wielding pitchforks, shovel, and any household items prepared to fight it out, but just right after they screamed, they saw their Young Miss, who is always stern and strict to strangers hugging someone as she cried herself out. Hearing their words, Blythe woke up from her crying as she cutely wiped the snot that''s still sticking from her nose to Zhihao''s clothes and the tears on her eyes. After tidying herself up, she looked at her subordinates and spoke. "Ahem, tonight and for a few more months, we''ll be having a normal day, that''s all, dismissed!" After relaying her orders, everyone nodded, although they want to ask what happened, they just shook their head and returned, in their mind, they are just glad that nothing happens to her, their Young Miss. Blythe then looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "Want to come with me in choosing the place you`d like to have?" Zhihao nodded and walked out of the house, Ying Mai followed as Riku landed on her shoulder. Zhihao sent a message to Riku. "What do you use here, like what are you guys selling in this World?" Riku smiled as she replied: "Elixir and Weapons, you can make the both of them with the things that Young Master has left you." After speaking, blood seethed through Riku''s mouth but only lasted for a millisecond before vanishing completely. Both Ying Mai and Zhihao didn''t notice it as Riku tried to recover her energy. Zhihao nodded as he followed Blythe outside. . . ... Blythe brought them to a wide place with a few vacancies and a lot of high ancient buildings. "Fresh Beast and Demon Beast here! Freshly caught! Buy all you need for a cheap price!" "We have newly made weapons and armors here! Step right up!" "Beast cores! Demon Beast Cores for sale! We''re offering a 30% discount to the first ten customers!" "Embedding beast cores to your weapon for only 30 white phoenix golds!" All sorts of advertising are heard as soon as they entered the area. people selling and buying goods left and right. Blythe bowed as she asked: "My Lord, what do you wish to sell in your shop?" Zhihao was shocked, such a big turn in personality, he was astounded, he chuckles as he replied. "I`d like to sell weapons and elixirs." Blythe nodded as she replied: "Okay! Weapons and Elix.." "!!!!!" Blythe is in a happy mood right now, but in the middle of her words, she stopped after noticing something. Elixirs?! Blythe looked at Zhihao in shock. "Elixirs?!?!" Chapter 226 Buying a Property "Elixirs?!" Blythe opened her eyes widely as she looked at Zhihao in shock. Zhihao looked at Blythe and asked: "What''s the matter?" Blythe hearing Zhihao''s words woke up from her daze and replied. "Elixirs are legends passed down from hundreds of thousands of years ago, it is a tale of old, they can only be discovered once every hundred of years, and they were only found in some ancient ruins or caves that were previously owned by the celestial existence of the past! now tell me, why should I not be shocked!?" Zhihao is shocked at what he has heard, he looked at Riku with prying eyes. Riku looked at him as she sent: "Don''t look at me with those eyes, you already know how long has I vanished from my own world, and I''ve just finished roaming the World." Zhihao nodded in understanding. "Riku nodded as she continued: "My Celestial World has degraded, to the extreme, the highest power is actually only at the 8th stage of Celestiality here, and above that, there has been no one that could break through to it, for millions of years." Hearing Riku''s word, Zhihao now knew of what''s happening. He then looked at Blythe and spoke. "Hahaha, My potions is just bragging." Riku sent another voice transmission: "Just tell her that you possess grade 4 to grade 6 potions." Zhihao nodded as he continued: "I will be selling grade 4 up to grade 6 potions." Blythe''s eyes widened open again: "Wow! you can really say that those are elixirs! that''s the highest grade in the Beauty Continent!" ''Beauty Continent?! What the hell!?'' Zhihao was astounded. "What kind of naming sense is that!?" Ying Mai stared at Zhihao with eyes that are saying ''Takes one to know one...'', Ying Mai sighed and shook her head and chuckles. Inside Zhihao''s head, Riku spoke: "Of course, it is I! my beautiful naming sense!" Zhihao was astounded and replied in his mind: "how can you call that naming sense! I can name it better! you could''ve at least called it Celestial Ranger Continent!" Blythe frowned as she rebuked: "It is a heavenly name, it is the name given by the Phoenix Sovereign himself! millions and millions of years ago, The Phoenix Sovereign descended from the heavens and dictated that our continent is to be named "Beauty Continent!", do you hear that!? and why don''t you know the name of your own continent''s name?!" Riku chuckles as she proudly spoke to Zhihao: "See that? they are even proud of it! I`d like to see one of your friends actually agreeing to your own naming sense! I don''t even know this woman and she''s too proud to call it that! Hmmmp!" Pausing for a bit Riku continued. "Just tell her that you came from ''Perfect Continent'', that will solve your problems." Zhihao nodded as he smiled: "Ahh, sorry, I`m just a wandering merchant, I came from the Perfect continent, so I don''t really know anything about other places." Blythe''s eyes opened widely and exclaimed: "Perfect Continent?!" Zhihao nodded as he smiled at the cute countenance that Blythe''s been showing him. Blythe stared at Zhihao like she''s staring at someone. Riku chuckles as she spoke to Zhihao''s mind: "There are ten continents in my Celestial World, starting from the lowest to highest, the Beautiful Continent, Graceful Continent, Gorgeous Continent,Flowery Continent, Angelic Continent, Devilishly Continent, Uglies Continent, Treasured Continent, Sacred Palace Continent, and Perfect Continent." Riku looked at Zhihao as she added: "The Uglies continent is supposed to be the weak continent, I even intentionally placed it in the middle of Beautiful, Graceful, and Gorgeous Continent, but who knew that millions of years, they would rise and can actually fight with the three continents simultaneously and on an equal footing, they even excel at the three by a tiny margin." "Sacred Palace Continent is my place of slumber, that''s my vacation place, it was supposed to be the gathering place of Law Celestials, but who knew yet again, that they would fall just after millions of years, haaa..." Zhihao sighed and thought: ''You are naming your continent based on your feelings... how wicked...'' "Please forgive us for our rude treatment Master, please don''t destroy our Bhie City, I`ll definitely make amends with you!" Blythe immediately exclaimed, to her, Perfect Continent is a power that shouldn''t be offended no matter what, that''s where the highest monarch stayed, the eccentric hermit. Zhihao spoke something outrageous, he wanted to keep a low profile, Riku could''ve told her some other continent, why does it have to be the strongest one. "Don''t worry about it, I`m just a merchant from that place." Zhihao smiled as he tried to calm Blythe. Blythe shook her head as she rebuked: "No! Master, even the maids there can treat us like bugs, I wouldn''t dare." "If you treat me differently from before, I`ll definitely get mad," Zhihao spoke, still trying to calm Blythe. "Okay..." Finally, after thinking for a bit, Blythe accepted, the fact that Zhihao himself had spoken about it, she couldn''t do anything to reverse it. "Good, now let''s find ourselves a place to have our shop opened." "Yes, Master." Blythe bowed as she agreed. "Just call me Zhihao from now on, okay?" "Un!" Blythe agreed as she could only do so, it would definitely bad for her and those under her if she offended Zhihao in any way, she then walked and looked at the district looking at any place with a lot of benefits as she led the way. Then, after just a few breaths of time, Blythe brought the both of them in front of a very old building that seemed to have not been used for many years. Blythe''s expression seemed to have deteriorated from neither the cute nor serious demeanor she has been having, instead, her face is full of sadness and longing, like those of a person looking at the grave of her beloved. Zhihao can feel her sorrow and walks toward her. "How much does this space costs? I`d like to buy the property." Blythe woke up from her daze as she looked at Zhihao, but before she could speak, someone intervened. "Hahaha, this place costs one black phoenix gold." Zhihao looked at where the voice came from and saw a fat man in his early 50s with four people behind his back like they are guarding him, there is also a boy beside him with snots running down from his nose. The fat man glanced at Blythe for a second before looking at Zhihao and bowed "Hello, you must be someone from another city, I`d like to welcome you personally in our City, my name is Skombag Bentong, the city governor, and this is my son, Skombag Bente." Bentong bowed his head slightly to gesture greetings, there are neither respect and humbleness in the way he did so, just a casual greeting. Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "I`d like to buy this place." After speaking, Zhihao threw a black gold piece that Ying Mai had given him earlier. The fat man''s eyes glimmered as he caught the shining black phoenix, he then looked at Zhihao in a scheming manner, there are no contracts yet but the payment is already been paid, he then glanced at the beauty beside him and a wicked smile formed, but before he could say something, Zhihao spoke. "If you need to register something, I`m Zhong Zhihao from the Perfect Continent." Hearing Zhihao''s words, the fat man immediately sweated so much, ''People from the Perfect continent!!!'' he fully regretted his action, he should''ve kowtowed instead of bowing earlier, offending anyone would from the Perfect Continent will definitely be the end of him. The perfect continent is the most powerful continent in this World, who would even dare to use these name. Bentong bowed his head as he spoke: "I`ll definitely fix everything, do you need anything Master? maids? bed warmers? people, to clean this place?" Benton then looked at Blythe as he turned his gaze back at Zhihao: "Has that little girl offended you in some way? I`ll definitely handle her!" But before he could do anything, Zhihao waved his hand and spoke: "Don''t worry about that, I already have people who''re going to work with me." Zhihao stopped as he looked at Blythe and continued: "She and the people under her care will work for me." "This..." Bentong wanted to say something, but before he could, Zhihao interrupted again. "Is there any problem with it?" "No... Nothing!" Bentong bowed, he still wanted to say something but shook his head, he then looked at the sky city before speaking. "Master, you can use this house from now on, we''ll definitely have the agreement later." After speaking, Bentong and Zhihao nodded as he looked at Blythe and spoke: "Return to your courtyard, bring your people here together with their belongings, all of you will stay here starting today." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Blythe''s expression didn''t change, but her eyes started to get moist as her mouth slowly opened but no words were going out. Zhihao then patted her head and spoke: "Go on, bring them here." "Un! Thank you so much, Master." Blythe bowed as she nodded her head. "I told you, just call me Zhihao, or you can also call me big brother." "Big Brother." Blythe blushes as she nodded, she then cheerfully walked out full of spirit and excitement. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and ordered: "Follow her, I think there''s something to here that''s more than the eye sees." Ying Mai nodded as she spoke: "Of course, but you need to kiss me first." Ying Mai was shocked, those words didn''t escape from her, but it sounded the same as her voice! Zhihao was shocked, he can clearly see that Ying Mai didn''t speak, but the voice that sounded is extremely similar to hers, looking behind Ying Mai, he saw Riku whistling. He sighed as he looked at Ying Mai and nodded, meaning that he knew that it wasn''t her that spoke. Ying Mai smiled as she nodded her head and followed Blythe. Zhihao then looked at Riku and spoke: "You are definitely a bird, a parrot." "What''s a parrot?" "A beautiful creature." Zhihao chuckles as he walked towards the table. "Hmmp! Good that you know I`m a beautiful creature!" Chapter 227 I Donst Care and... Blythe walked to her courtyard and saw her subordinates doing their daily work, chopping logs, making salts, planting some herb seeds. Blythe opened her mouth and shouted: "Everyone! I have a great news!" All of them heard Blythe''s shout and looked at her. "Young Miss!" Everyone stopped their work and greeted. "All of you don''t need to work there! We will go to a place to work!" Blythe excitedly exclaimed. All of their eyes brightened up, then a silhouette approached her and spoke. "Young Miss, have you forgotten? if anyone helps us, the risk will be offending them, the least that will happen to them will be injuries, and the worst is death!" The one that spoke is Ollie, her uncle. Hearing his words, Blythe''s excitement vanished and is replaced by sadness. All of them immediately sighed, all of them could work exempting the children, but nobody is willing to hire them. Ollie and the rest need to go through the black market to sell their goods, and even there, they still need to cover their faces. Just when their mood has started to plummet, Ying Mai walked forward and spoke. "No matter who or which power he came from, my Master will not even bother to glance at them." Ying Mai paused as she looked at Blythe and spoke. "My Master''s orders are absolute, his will is the Heavens, rest assured, nothing will happen to us!" A Dignified face of a woman with a bearing of a sovereign is standing in front of them, it felt like every word she has spoken is the absolute truth, and everything else is a life. Such resolute and determination, the confidence she has for her Master." Blythe then opened her eyes and remembered something: "Right! Big Brother Zhihao came from the Perfect Continent!" Hearing Blythe''s words, everyone''s eyes opened widely. "Perfect Continent?!" "Un! Everyone, pack up your things and let''s go!" Blythe excitedly sprinted back towards her house. "Yes, Young Miss!" Everyone followed Blythe after gathering their belongings, waiting for her to come out. After a few breathes, Blythe got out of her house with a bag on her shoulder. Clearly, she only has a few things inside, two pieces of a change of clothes and that''s it. The rest is also holding small bags, all of them barely has possession, just a few clothes and that''s their whole wealth, a clear sight of poverty. "Let''s go!" Blythe excitedly runs out of the courtyard. Everyone smiled, seeing Blythe in full spirit again. "It has been so many years since I''ve seen it." "Our Young Miss''s smile." All of them had tears welling up on their eyes, Blythe, their Young Miss wasn''t always the serious and mature person, she''s always been the cheerful, innocent, and pure child, all of the ones here had seen and watched her grow up, seeing Blythe''s cheerful spirit, they felt warm and satisfied. Ying Mai smiled at the sight of it, she then followed behind Blythe who''s hopping and skipping. "Oh! What a sight." Out of nowhere, a seemingly irritating voice sounded. A young man wearing clothes with designs embedded with different kinds of gems and fingers full of rings of gold is standing in their way with three men behind his back. "Delima Lulong!" Blythe exclaimed, seeing this figure, disdain can be seen in her eyes. Ollie made his way in front of Blythe and Ying Mai wielding his sword and immediately embedded it with power. One of the men scowled: "Hmmmp! Merely a first stage Empowering level and you dare to show yourself in front of Young Master! you deserve to die!" Lulong looked at the one and ordered: "Play with him for me, don''t kill him." "Yes!" After receiving his order, a smile formed on his lips as he walked towards Ollie, unsheathing his sword, he embedded it with flames. "3rd stage Empowering level!" Ollie started to sweat, he could definitely not deal with this guy, but before he could prepare, that man started to charge at him, the two of them clashed as they moved further and further away. The crowd of people started gathering from afar and is looking at the commotion. "Isn''t that Lulong? the Young Master of the Delima Clan, he''s finding trouble with the Cantar''s again." "One of the four great clans are actually bullying the weak, such a sight, shameless." "They already lost their wealth and fortunes, but they are still being pursued by powers, such a pity, they were great powerful clan before too." "Such scums still exists, if only I`m stronger, I`ll definitely help them!" "Shhh, don''t talk loudly, we can''t help them or else, our loved ones and us might die." People kept gathering as a few hundred people had arrived, some of them gritted their teeth and clenched their fist, but all they could do is look. Lulong looked at Blythe and look at the silhouette standing before her, a smile formed on his lips as he spoke. "Nice to meet you again Miss Cantar, it seemed you have a beautiful guest, I don''t know where you`ll be going, but I`ll take it from here and all of you can go back in your hole to rot." Lulong stopped and looked at Ying Mai as he continued to speak to Blythe: "I`m still waiting for your answer, I`d still like for you to be my concubine to warm my bed every night, pfft, hahaha." After speaking, Lulong walked towards them as the two men beside him followed. Blythe''s countenance change as she felt enraged, she wielded her sword and empowered it with fire. it is stronger than Ollie''s and the other man''s power. 4th stage of empowering level. The men under her also took out their working tools out and prepared to fight. Lulong chuckles as he replied: "4th stage of empowering, you are definitely a genius, but that was years ago." After speaking, Lulong took out his own sword as he empowered himself too, he is also at the 4th stage of empowering level. Blythe prepared to fight, but as soon as she did, Lulong spoke. "But I`m not the one fighting you, Mukeng!" After Lulong called, a man wearing clothes glamorous clothes appeared beside him. "Young Master, Mukeng is here." Lulong smiled as he spoke: "Deal with Blythe for me." After speaking, Lulong looked at Ying Mai as he smiled gently and spoke: "I`m the Young Master of the Delima Clan, Delima Lulong, nice to meet you." Lulong bowed, trying to impress Ying Mai to the fullest. One of the men then spoke: "Miss, the Young Master is giving you a blessing, you better take it, or else, something bad might happen." Mukeng and Lulong approached Blythe and Ying Mai as a smug look on their faces appeared. Ying Mai looked at Lulong as she waved her hand, a strong wind gushed fort as a slapping sound echoed. "Pak!" Together with the sound, two figures floated in the sky as one slammed on the ground and another one crashed into a wall. "Booom!" Mukeng slammed into a wall and lost his consciousness while Lulong planted his face on the ground with his rear pointing at the heavens. Plucking his face out of the ground, Lulong glared at Ying Mai and shouted: "You dare?! My clan will capture you and send you to me to play with!" Ying Mai glanced at him and slapped another time, this time, it is aimed at the man fighting Ollie. The man immediately flew as he crashed into a tree. "Do whatever you want, I don''t care and... you are ugly." Chapter 228 Naming The Shop "You are ugly." You are ugly... you are ugly... you are ugly... The surrounding observers were astounded, who is Lulong? a Young Master from one of the four powers inside the Bhie City, the Delima Clan, a direct descendant in the clan, one of the few that are fighting to be the Clan head, even though he is ugly, nobody uttered such a word in fear of offending the Delima Clan. Lulong felt enraged, those words echoed in his ears multiple times. but before he could speak, Ying Mai led Blythe and her people away. "Let''s go, call my Father for me!" Seeing their vanishing silhouette, the only thing in his mind now is revenge. "Yes, Young Master." All of them fixed themselves as they got out of the ground and assisted their limping young master back to the Delima Clan''s estate. . . ... After a while, Ying Mai and the others finally came back to the old build. Zhihao looked at the people who entered, more than 50 adults came and less than 40 children. Zhihao then spoke: "Okay, all of you will be cleaning and remaking this establishment." After speaking, Zhihao handed a single piece of black phoenix gold to Blythe: "Buy everything that''s needed, also buy some meat and rice to eat on the noon, afternoon. and evening for three months." Hearing this, Blythe''s eyes opened widely, such generosity, she immediately nodded and replied: "I`ll do my best! Blythe looked at her subordinates and spoke: "Okay! let''s do this!" "Yes!" Everyone responded as they smiled. After they responded, they started to tear the rotting woods and renovating the inside throwing the old and broken. Ying Mai then asked: "Master, how much are they going to earn?" Hearing this question, everyone''s ears perked as their focus Zhihao pondered for a bit, he couldn''t help but ask, how much do they earn here? after a few minutes of pondering, he looked at Ying Mai and replied: "I`ll give them one white phoenix gold each, for both children and adults alike" Hearing this, all of them smiled, they are getting a little higher than their previous earning, and what''s better is that they are living in a better sleeping quarter. Blythe smiled cheerfully, at least they wouldn''t be hungry with the free food that Zhihao is treating them. Seeing that everyone smiled, Zhihao nodded as he added: "Okay, that''s settled then, one white phoenix gold per day." Hearing Zhihao''s following word, everyone was shocked with wide opened eyes and mouth. Tears couldn''t help but fall from both the children and adult''s eyes, they kneeled down and spoke: "Master, thank you for the magnanimous gift!" Zhihao looked at them and spoke: "Okay, enough with that, let''s work now, and make this place as great as it looks before." "Yes!" Everyone returned to working after replying, the children did the light works, like sweeping, and taking out light woods. . . ... Somewhere inside the Bhie City. "WHO DID THIS!?" "BAM!" A loud shout was heard as someone slammed his palm at his armchair, completely destroying that part off. The one in front shuddered as he spoke: "Patriarch, It was a woman, she bashed me up without even having the chance to fight ba..." But before he could finish, a wooden rod appeared as it flew towards him at a fast speed. The one that reported is Lulong evaded, but before the wooden rod struck him, a fat hand stomped forward and blocked it. "Pak!" The one sitting on the chair stood up and spoke: "Lila, what are you doing?" The one called Lila is a fat woman that looks exactly like Lulong, it can easily be deduced that she is Lulong''s mother, she looked at the man and spoke. "I`m not stopping you in disciplining our sone Antano, but be sure to not hit his face! just remember how you receive your current position, you married me and I gave you that place." Lila spoke calmly and gracefully, but matching with her face, it doesn''t go too well. Antano frowned, just thinking of the day of his first wedding night, he felt vomiting, but to get the position of patriarch, he did everything he could, even backstabbing people and trying to scheme against them through the way. Antano calmed down as he replied: "Then, what do you think I should do?" "Do you even have to ask? send your men and find that b!tch! send her to me directly!" Lila shouted as saliva kept shooting out of her mouth from all direction. "All right! All right, stop shouting, there will be a flood if you continue!" Antano sighed, trying to calm down his wife. "Hmmmp! be sure to do it fast, I`m infuriated!" Lila left a word as she dragged her son out. Scratching his head, Antano sighed and ordered: "Get that woman here, Garde Otabotam, bring five 5th stage Empowering warriors with you." Antano then thought of something as he added: "Bring her to me first, I''d like to see her face first." Another Ugly man appeared beside him out of nowhere and replied: "Yes Patriarch, consider it done." After replying, Garde vanished without any trace. Antano sighed, he slumped on his chair as he spoke: "Why do they only have ugly people in this clan..." "I have power now but... I think I made the wrong choice..." . . ... Back to Zhihao''s group. The progress of the reconstruction is going on a very fast phase but with a solid foundation, all of them felt extremely familiar with this place, they had lived in her before and everything they did, they did with resoluteness, no slacking off can be seen anywhere. Zhihao smiled as he nodded in agreement. Blythe then came back with a person, a tall man with a properly built body is following her, behind them are four men carrying a wood that''s ten meters long, three meters high, and six inches thick "Big Brother! the wood sculpture is here!" Zhihao nodded as he looked at them and smiled: "How much does it cost to make the shop name?" The properly build man replied: "That would cost 50 white phoenix gold, for the wood, that wood over there is an especial ember sunset wood, it costs 100 white phoenix gold, if you think it costs too much, I`ll pick another wood that''s a lot cheaper." Zhihao looked at the wood and find it interesting, a wood that has the color of light maroon and is slightly glimmering with golden color, it really is extremely attractive to look at. Zhihao looked back at the man and spoke: "I`ll give you 1,000 white phoenix gold if you finish it, and I`ll give you a bonus depending on the finished work." After Zhihao finished speaking, the expression of the man brightened up as he replied: "Master, leave the rest to me, I`ll definitely make the best nameplate for your shop! What would the name be Master?" Ying Mai shook her head and sighed, she then walked out of the shop to take in some fresh air, Riku looked at her and wondered before looking at Zhihao again. Zhihao pondered for a bit before he spoke: "I want to there to be a lot of designs on the edges of the nameplate, and I''d like to name the shop too..." Zhihao paused as he thought further, after a while, he looked at the man and continued: "Cultimana Shop!" "Pffft!" Riku couldn''t help but laughed herself out inside her mind when she couldn''t hold it in, she flew out of the shop and went into the sky to laugh herself out. "Yes!... Yes?" The man looked at Zhihao in bewilderment, he thought that he has misunderstood it. "Cultimana Shop, I''d like that as my shop''s name: "Zhihao spoke with pride in his heart. "Yes! Consider it done Master." After agreeing, the man sighed as he walked out of the shop and went to his men. "Okay guys, let''s get this very important work done!" "Yes!" Four of his men answered in unison. Zhihao looked at them as he nodded and walked back to a vacant chair. The man looked at Zhihao again but saw that he''s not there. "How do you even spell that?" Chapter 229 Trouble After a few hours of rebuilding the shop, it has finally been done, the only thing left is for the furniture and decorations. Blythe approached Zhihao excitedly as she reported: "Big Brother! We''ll be buying the furniture!" Zhihao looked at her as he chuckles and replied: "You go and rest first, you''ve been running here and there for the past couple of hours." Ollie approached as he added: "I`ll be the one to go, Master, let me and a few of my men go instead." "Okay, be sure to buy the best ones, I`ll be going up and do some things. " Zhihao replied as he stood up. Ollie nodded as he bought with him, ten abled adults and went his way, they didn''t take any money as all of the furniture are always paid once they arrived. Zhihao nodded as he made his way up to the 5th floor, the last floor of the building, while Ying Mai followed him only up to the 4th floor. Blythe sighed as she sat on the table and looked out of the window, if there''s anything to be done, she''ll help, but the people kept pushing her to rest. . . ... Zhihao finally found peace as he started to withdrew out a lot of things from his interspatial things. "Riku, I know you are there, I need help in making potions, I don''t know how." Like she''s planning for it, Riku flew inside from the window and spoke: "Ha, Ying Mai! Come!" After Riku spoke, blue lights flashed as a seal formed on the ground, Ying Mai''s silhouette immediately appeared. Zhihao''s and Ying Mai''s eyes stared at each other as Ying Mai turned her back and sat.. Ying Mai is currently half-naked, she''s in the middle of changing her clothes as Riku summoned her to Zhihao''s quarters. Riku then spoke: "What are you doing hiding your perfectly great body from your future husband?" Hearing Riku''s words, Ying Mai stood up with a bright red face as she looked at Zhihao''s side and took out a set of robes and dressed in front of him white bright red complexion. Zhihao is still blushing as he faced the other way. After a few breathes, Ying Mai finished dressing up and spoke. "Why did you summon me Riku?" Riku chuckles as she replied: "I`m going to teach him how to make potions, it would be best if you can help him in the future." Ying Mai nodded her head and sat next to Zhihao as the both of them. Riku transformed to her human form, immediately, she waved her hand as the pouch in Ying Mai''s belt flew to her, flicking her fingers, different kinds of herbs and empty round bottles numbering thousands filled the 5th floor. Riku looked at Zhihao as she spoke: "There will be three 6th grade potions that I can teach you, for now, these are mostly the basic things that the current power in my world know of, one is Large Healing Potion, second is Large Empowering Potion, and the last one, the 6th Grade Taming potion." Pausing for a bit, she added: "The 5th-grade potions will be, Minor Healing Potions, Minor Stamina Boosting Potion, and such, I`ll start now." After she spoke, she summoned another ten vases: "These are Flood Dragon Blood, a 6th-grade monster, it will make the potions become the purest and highest quality, now watch." Three types of herbs flew upward as the blood on, flicking her fingers, the fire burned on around the herb as it started to melt and turned to liquid, after that, she combined the dragon blood and burned the mixture again as it turned into a shimmering red liquid. "Pak!" Riku flicked her fingers again as a wooden drum appeared, she immediately filled the empty drum with the mixture she made. "That''s how you make the Large Health Potion, there is about enough for 1,000 pcs of Large Potion Bottles there, I`ll tell you all the details about the others formulas. "Riku spoke after she finished making the potion like its some sort of extremely easy thing. "That''s it?!" Zhihao exclaimed in shock: "The people thought that it''s a high-grade potion but they only need to do something like that?" Riku sighs as she spoke: "That''s how far my realm has plummetted, Zhihao, I need help from you too." Zhihao looked at her and asked: "Sure, what is it?" Closing her eyes, Riku spoke: "I need you to help me clean up my World after you are done with the World I was sealed on." Zhihao smiles at her and without any hesitation, he replied: "Sure, so long as its a request from my friends, there''s no problem if it is within my capabilities." Riku smiled back at him and spoke: "Thanks." All three of them spoke for a while before continuing on crafting the potions. After about half an hour, Zhihao and Ying Mai finished all of the batches and stored everything on their spatial rings, some are inside the interspatial pouch. When the both of them are on the 2nd floor, they heard a shout. "Master! Hide! There are troublemakers damaging the shop!" The one that spoke is Ollie, with his tone, Zhihao, and Ying Mai can clearly notice the urgency. Zhihao and Ying Mai arrived on the first floor and looked at the damages that were dealt, a lot of the new furniture and newly made wallers were destroyed. The both of them frowned as they looked at the people that are causing a disturbance. "Who are you lot? why did you do these?" Zhihao asked in a threatening tone. "Master! They are from the Delima Clan!" Ollie immediately replied, not waiting for the thugs to speak. The one leading the group of people, Garde, walked closer as he looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "So... you are the one that offender our Young Master? come with me if you don''t want your new shop to be destroyed." Ying Mai frowned, she is about to walk but Zhihao made her halt, she looked at Ying Mai and saw Zhihao''s calm face, but seeing his eyes, even Ying Mai herself, who has always been with him shuddered. Zhihao smiled as he walks closer with closed eyes as he spoke: "Oh, my my, what kind of problem did my wife cause?" Hearing Zhihao''s word, Ying Mai blushes as her previous fear vanished and changes into that of a loving wife. Garde frowned and spoke: "Hmmp, so she''s not a virgin anymore, well, that''s good too, she''ll be a plaything instead." Garde paused for a bit before he continued: "We''ll compensate you for the damage, we''ll even give you wealth after my Master is done with her if you don''t want any trou-" "Swoosh!" "Bang!" Garde couldn''t finish his word, not because he became scared nor saw anything extremely terrifying, instead, he has already lost consciousness as he slammed on to the wall of the building in front of Zhihao''s shop together with the three thugs behind him. Zhihao faced the rest of the thugs, still with closed eyes and a smiling face, his eyes slowly opened as a fierce killing intent gushed out of his body and spoke. "I don''t care who you guys spoke ill off, Plaything? are you calling my wife play thing?!" After speaking, Zhihao''s aura burst forth as he pressured the thugs, although there is no real power there, just the Aura of Zhihao''s power can already crush them to death, luckily, he still has self-restraint and only used 1% of his Aura. Garde finally woke up and saw what''s happening. "Th...This... Trouble! We''re in big trouble!" Witnessing such overbearing power, Garde even wetted himself. "We''ve messed with some people! Our Delima Clan is in trouble!" Chapter 230 Opening the Shop Garde felt regret at what''s currently happening. "We''ve messed with the wrong men. "Garde uttered between gritted teeth as he shivered. Zhihao is looking at them still smiling. ''He... he might be a powerful man in the 8th empowering level! and our young master has to mess with his wife!'' Garde seeing Zhihao''s face which is still full of innocent smiles shuddered, although to the people not involved it would seem a gentle smile, but for them, it seems like a smile from the death gods. Zhihao finally calmed himself slightly as he looked at the men that''s together with Garde and spoke. "All of you can go, bring men to help and fix the damage that was caused here, and as a compensation, give the injured employee of my shop 100 white phoenix gold, tell that to your master." "YES!" All of them replied as they walked out, one of them assisted Garde in standing up. "Where are you going? Leave that man behind." A voice sounded, to Garde, it was like a death sentence from the god of death! The one assisting Garde let him go and immediately departed, Garde looked at Zhihao as he kneeled on the ground with his head smashed on the floor. "Please spare me, Lord, I was just an underling, ordered to do a job!" Zhihao looked at him indifferently and spoke: "So... you calling my wife a ''Plaything'' is also ordered by your Master to say too?" Hearing Zhihao''s question, Garde''s sweating body sweated further as he couldn''t rebuke. "Lord! Please spare me!" Garde lifted up his head full of tears and snot as he looked at Zhihao and begged, but what he saw made the color on his skin pale in an instant. Zhihao summoned one of the swords inside his interspatial ring and held it tight. "LORD! PLEASE HAVE MERCY!" Garde seeing the giant sword became scared to his limits. Ying Mai has been blushing ever since Zhihao called her his wife but seeing this scene, she immediately calmed down and approached him. "Master, I`ll do the rest." Ying Mai as the celestial general of Zhihao, she is supposed to do the dirty works unless she couldn''t handle it, why does Zhihao, her Master needs to do it. Surprisingly, Zhihao didn''t even look at her as Zhihao threw the sword up in the air. "I`ll only give you this one chance to live!" After speaking, the blade finally descended as Zhihao punched it, but instead of flying, the sword broke into tiny pieces as the shards flew straight at Garde. "GAAAAA!" A loud screech is hurt as those sharps pierced Garde''s body, hundreds of holes were made in just a single second. Baring the pain, Garde kowtowed again, like some magic, only the vital part in both of his hands were hit, he then looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Thank you for the mercy, Lord!" "Go now, before I change my mind!" Zhihao is in a really bad mood right now, but he doesn''t want to be labeled as a murdering shop owner, it might also be detrimental to the opening of his shop. "YES!" Garde immediately crawled out of his location like a worm. When his minions had seen this, one of them returned to help him up, but before he did, he looked at the place where Zhihao is, when he noticed that Zhihao only looked at him and left, that minion immediately picked up Garde and assisted him. When they came back to the Delima Clan''s estate, Antano received them as he smiled with expectation, but those smiles immediately vanished and are replaced by a frown. "What happened? who did this to you, Garde?" Garde is one of the clan''s top warriors, a warrior at the 6th stage of Empowering, but seeing this situation, he couldn''t help but question. Garde shoves his underling to the side using his shoulder and kneeled: "Master, I was defeated." Antano frowned further, there is only a handful of people that could defeat Antano, as one of the best warriors of his clan, inside the City, there are only seven people outside his clan that could do so. "Which clan is so brazen to do that to you?" Garde shook his head and replied: "Master, not them... but the husband of the woman." Antano was shocked: "How powerful is he?" Garde pondered for a bit, although he couldn''t see it, he deduced that Zhihao is a knuckle type empowering warrior, he looked at his master and replied. "Master, I think that he would at least be at the 7th stage of empowering warrior, the worst is he''s at the 8th stage." Antano frowned, where could such a character suddenly appear out of nowhere, he looked at Garde and asked: "Did he say anything?" Garde bowed as he replied: "Yes Master, he said that he''ll need some compensation, some man power to help him rebuild the damages that we have done, and..." "And?" "And 100 white phoenix gold for each of his men that were injured." Garde also thought that that''s a big sum just for some injuries. "How many did you injure?" Antano asked, if it''s just a little, they could compromise, their clan only earns 15,000 white phoenix golds per month, reducing the amount that they feed the clan and salaries, they only get 5,000 white phoenix golds. "20 Men." Garde replied without any hesitation, although he didn''t count, that''s at least the number that was hurt. "2,000 white phoenix gold..." Antano frowned, that''s almost half of their clan''s earning in a month, after thinking for a while, Antano nodded and continued. "Let''s pay them first, bring some men, we will gauge their power first." "Yes!" Everyone replied immediately and got a few men to head back. After a while, Antano made his men go back to the store, this time, there are three of his best warriors at the 6th stage of empowering warrior. When the time that they have arrived, they saw that the building has been fully repaired, the one leading them, Pland walked forward and entered: "I`d like to see your master, I`m from the Delima clan." Pland frowned, everything is neat, there are not even any injured men inside. A moment after he spoke, someone approached him. "My Master said that you don''t need to fix anything, just hand us double the price." The one that spoke is the person that cooked the soup when Zhihao had first come to Blythe''s courtyard. Pland further and spoke: "Wait for a bit, I`ll need to send someone back and get the money." "Un! I will wait, just call me when he''s back." Pland ordered one of his men to return and speak to the master of what has happened, after a while, that person returned and spoke. "Master said that his patience is running out." Pland nodded as he spoke: "I need to talk to somebody." The one that approached them earlier returned and spoke: "Do you have it? double the price?" Pland frowned as he sighed, he is one of the most prestigious people inside their clan, but the only one that''s actually speaking to him is a slave of the shop, this clearly had offended him. "No, we can''t pay-" But before Pland can reply, the woman spoke. "Oh! Okay, you don''t need to pay anything then, our Master would also not take any revenge! have a nice day." After replying, the woman went back into cooking. Pland was shocked at first, but a smile formed on his lips as he went back together with his men. "Hmmp! once he saw there''s a lot of powerful men, he got so scared that he couldn''t receive the payment, coward." All of the men together with him chuckles as they returned. Zhihao is looked at them from the 5th floor as he smiled and nodded, he then went his way down and ordered: "I`d like all of you, to organize everything and place it on the back of the front desk, when it''s full, make sure to put the rest on the storage." After speaking, Zhihao took out a lot of potions class by class. everything is assorted with prices on it. 6th-grade Large Health Potion = 2,000 white phoenix gold 6th-grade Large Empowering Potion = 7,500 white phoenix gold 6th Grade Taming potion = 12,999 white phoenix gold 4th-grade Calming potion = 499 white phoenix gold 4th-grade Mending potion =280 white phoenix gold 5th-grade Medium Health potion = 790 white phoenix gold 4th-grade... 5th-gra... 10 types of potion ranging from 4th-grade potions to 6th grade. "Yes!" Everyone has no idea of what these potions are, they are just maids and servants of Blythe, since birth, they were kept by Blythe''s father and was treated great, that''s why they decided to stick to Blythe and take care of her. The only people that knew about such a thing is Blythe, and Ollie, but the two of them are currently sleeping on the 3rd floor. After everything has been done, Zhihao saw that everything is on the place and spoke. "Let''s open the shop!" "YES!" Everyone excitedly replied as they headed out and opened the closed door. Chapter 231 Attraction After a while, Pland finally came back to the Clan mansion with his head held high and a smug smile plastered on his face. Seeing this, the bad expression in Antano vanished and was replaced with satisfaction. "What has happened?" Pland nodded has he bowed and reported: "Reporting, Master, they seemed to be afraid of our power, the moment that we came there, the boss has already hidden behind his store, not even daring to show himself in front of us." Antano chuckles as he nodded: "Well, let us not be brazen about it, maybe we have the same power as his that''s why he''s taking measures, nothing is lost, we''ll just let that be, for now, inform your mistress." "Yes!" Everyone nodded and separated as they have gone back to their own duties. Antano went back to his chair as a smug look appeared on his face: "I need to check his background, If he has none, I won''t even need to be afraid of him, I have more people in my disposal, I wouldn''t believe at a single 8th stage empowering warrior can defeat hundreds of 5th stage and tens of 6th stage empowering warriors." After speaking, Antano became more elated as he drank himself to self-delusion. . . ... Back to Zhihao''s shoop. It has been almost an hour since they had opened it, but to Zhihao''s surprise, nobody is trying to go in, they would just glance at his shop and continue on their walk. Pondering for a while, Zhihao thought of something as he made his way down from the 5th floor. "I''d like every one of you to scatter throughout the city, and shout the name of our shop and location, and also tell them of what we are selling, we''re selling weapons, and potions, t4 to t6 on both items." "Yes, Master." Everyone nodded and moved out of the shop to do what Zhihao has instructed. "East of the Marketplace, Cultimana Shop is selling tier 4 to tier 6 potions and weapons!!" "East of the Marketplace, Cultimana Shop is selling tier 4 to tier 6 potions and weapons!!" "East of the Marketplace, Cultimana Shop is selling tier 4 to tier 6 potions and weapons!!" Everyone shouted, around them, people are smirking left and right, one of them then spoke. "Don''t go and be delusional, only the high tier continents possess those kinds of pills! don''t go trying to trick us in believing that you guys are actually in a possession of such rare treasures!" The woman shouting frowned, but she just ignored it as she''s only a normal person, she just continued shouting. "East of the Marketplace, Cultimana Shop is selling tier 4 to tier 6 potions and weapons!!" "Hmmmp! Ignore that bitch! crazy people." "Why are you judging something that you have no proof of?" Out of nowhere, a voice sounded. The man frowned as he glared at the location where the voice came from, but as soon as he saw the man, he was shocked and immediately bowed. "Young Master Zen!" Everyone bowed as they showed their respect towards the man. The man called Zen waved his hands and spoke: "You may continue with what you are all doing." "Yes!" Zen approached the woman who''s shouting and asked: "Do the shop you are saying really sells high-grade potions and weapons?" The woman hesitated for a bit before nodded her head: "Yes!" Zen smiled as he nodded and made his way towards the shop. Some people saw this and immediately followed, they''d like to see if there are really tier 6 grade potions in the shops, tier 4 grade potions would do too since there are only tier 1 potion in their city, there are tier 2 potions too, but they are really sparse. The woman seeing that Zen going to their shop followed. "Young Master Zen, you`ll go to our shop?" Zen smiled at the woman as he replied: "I am, I might take one or two bottles with me." The woman smiled as she nodded and added: "Our employer is really magnanimous, he''s giving us a salary that''s really generous, one white phoenix gold a day!" Hearing that, Zen''s countenance changed. ''One white phoenix gold a day?! that''s the salary of our clan''s elite! what is that guy''s background...'' And just like the woman is hearing his question spoke: "Our mistress said that he''s from the Perfect Continent, he''s a really handsome and strong man!" Hearing this, Zen stopped for a bit as he looked at the woman and asked: "Perfect continent?" The woman nodded as she continued walking. "Interesting." After speaking, Zen followed, he wants to see who this ''Man'' that came from such a mighty continent look like. After a while, the both of them reached the shop, seeing looked around and was astounded. "This is the old property of the Cantar''s... the mistress she''s talking about must be..." Zen didn''t continue with his words, he then entered the shop, but as soon as he entered, his eyes widened in shock. Weapons exuding profound powers, aura floating around it, pills that have actual auras coming out of it like smokes from a freshly cooked hot soup, these type of auras can only be seen by people of above 4th stage of Empowering warrior. Zen''s lips couldn''t help but curved upward, witnessing such a sight, the difference between the outside and inside of the shop is like heaven and earth! Walking closer, Zen asked the woman: "How much does that potion costs?" Zen pointed at the "6th-grade Large Health Potion" although he wanted to ask about the other two that''s besides its shelve, the potions besides the Health potion is the other 6th grade potions, the 6th-grade Large Empowering Potion, 6th Grade Taming potion. Zen can clearly see the black smoke oozing out of the taming potion and empowering potion that has almost double of the Health Potion''s aura, the denseness of the aura clearly means that it has a greater effect, which also means that amongst the 6th-grade potions, those two are clearly expensive. Trying to avoid any embarrassing moment from happening for himself, he ignored the other two and pointed at the red potion that''s less domineering. The woman smiled as she replied: "Young Master, that potion costs 2,000 white phoenix gold." The woman is slightly hesitant about telling him the price, but their Master strictly said that it will costs for that much, nothing more, nothing less. "This!!!" Zen couldn''t help but exclaim, the woman felt shaken as she thought that the man in front of her would clearly become enraged. The woman thought that Zen would go on a rampage, but after the next sentence, she was shocked. "The price is extremely cheap! A tier 2 potion already costs 500 white phoenix gold! hahaha, I`ll buy two pieces for now." After speaking, Zen handed 4,000 white phoenix gold to the woman as he wants to buy them and take the potions back to his clan, clearly, he wants to be the one to buy all of this. In Zen''s thought, the owner of this place really came from the perfect continent, which power from their world could produce these kinds of potions other than the Perfect Continent, the Sacred Palace Continent, and the Treasured Continent, only these three powerhouse continents has great resources to mix potions of the 6th-grade! Why would there even be a person that can create such potion such the name of others, in Zen''s thought, it is clearly a valid statement, that the owner of this shop is from the Perfect Continent, no doubt. The woman woke up from her daze as she accepted the white phoenix gold and tremblingly handed the 6th-grade potions, two of them. "Thank you for buying from us!" The woman bowed as she thanked Zen. Zen smiled at her and replied: "No, thanks for selling me this great stuff, I`ll be going now!" After Zen has bought the potion, he immediately made his way out of the shop and headed back to his clan. Seeing the smile on Zen''s lips after rushing out of the shop, the ones that had followed him to the shop only had one thought on their minds. ''It''s real!'' Everyone parted as smiles are plastered on their faces, they couldn''t wait but to talk about this news to the people, friends, and family. Really, no matter which world it is, there is no short of supply of gossipers, clearly, this world has them too. After just a few hours, the news of a shop selling Tier 4 to Tier 6 items has already been spread to the wholeBhie City, Merchants that''s about to depart hearing immediately rushed towards the shop. While Merchants and warriors that has just arrived inside the Bhie City rushed as they headed towards the said shop. In just a few hours, the once deserted shop is having a line of people waiting outside, The shop can only accommodate 300 people, but Zhihao has instructed them that only 50 people can enter to provide great customer service and for space to not be too cramped. A silhouette on the 5th floor saw this as he couldn''t believe his eyes: "Well... that escalated too much..." Chapter 232 I Am... Cultimana Shop. The attention of all the people inside the Bhie City is currently focused on the Cultimana shop, run by people from the Slum''s before, now these people are respected by the sectless warriors, even the merchants of high-grade trades are showing respect to them, fearing for offending the person that has hired them. "Thank you! please come back again!" "Thanks! I will." "Thank you! You''ve made a really great deal!" "Hahaha, I know! thanks to you too." Consistent sounds of thankings kept echoing inside the store, clearly, the satisfaction rate has gone to a 100% Zhihao and Ying Maid made their way down from the top floor, immediately all of the customers saw the countenance the both of them are showing. Zhihao, although he''s walking like he usually does, due to the experiences that have accumulated and is imprinted deeply inside his bone, he''s walking like a king and has an aura of a supreme being. Ying Mai, on the other hand, is showing the elegance of that of a goddess that''s descending from the heavens, grace, beauty, and although with her beautiful face, there''s a fierce light glowing in her eyes. Clearly, all of the people inside know that the two of them is the owner of this shop. All of them bowed their head, although they didn''t speak, it clearly showed their respect. Zhihao instinctively waved his hand and moved on, stating that they could go back to whatever they are doing. Everyone smiled at him, they tried to check Zhihao''s and Ying Mai''s aura, but they clearly couldn''t see anything, which means their power is extremely too high, in their thought, the two of them, Ying Mai and Zhihao should at least be on the 9th stage of Empowering warrior or higher. One of Blythe''s subordinates approached Zhihao and spoke: "Master, we''re running out of Tier 4 Potions!" Zhihao nodded as he went to the back of the cashier, behind the front desk area, Zhihao withdrew thousands of pills, he looked at the man and spoke. "Set it up by the cabinet." "Yes, Master!" After pausing, that man looked at a few vacant friends of his and continued. "Hey, I need a little help here!" Five people nodded as they went their way and assisted. Zhihao then looked at the area and pondered, he looked at the sides and noticed that the weapons are not selling like he had expected, he called one out and asked. "Why are the weapons not selling?" The lady bows her head and replied: "Master, I have no idea." Hearing this, Zhihao almost stumbled to the floor. One of the customers, an old man, someone between the age of 70 to 80 walked slowly with respect towards Zhihao and spoke. "Ah, I might know the answer Lord." Zhihao looked at the old man and asked: "Ah, may I know the name of this honored customer?" The old man chuckles as he replied: "Ah, it is my honor, my lord, My name is Zhen Drutre." Zhihao nodded and asked: "Can I ask what''s the problem? is there something wrong between the weapons that I am selling?" The old man chuckles as he answered: "Well, my Lord, the price of a tier two sword is already astronomical, the lowest quality costs 10,000 white phoenix gold, once we saw the weapons display on your shop, it would at least cost 10 to 20 black phoenix gold, and that''s us thinking that those weapons are the 5th grade, once it goes to the 6th grade, that would definitely be something that even the whole of the Country of Bhie, won''t be able to afford, so for people like us, we''d like to avoid getting embarrassed and having an awkward situation." Hearing this, Zhihao nodded, he then looked at the bird that''s flying towards Ying Mai. A smile formed on Zhihao''s face as he enhances his vocals and spoke: "All of the weapons in my shop, a total of 100 weapons only costs 2 Black Phoenix Gold each!" The old man hearing this removed all pretense as he immediately jumped towards the swords that he had been eyeing for the past 2 hours, hugging two of them tightly on his body and approaching the clerk. "I`d like to purchase these two!" The old man that seemed to be elegant and honorable became as willful as a kid as he jumped through to other customers, grabbing the swords and placed it in his embrace, making the rest of the customers shocked, although the prices have dwindled so much, only a few can actually still buy it. After a while, the old man returns in front of Zhihao and spoke. "Ahem, well, our clan needs a lot of great things, especially for the younger generation, so I`m buying it for them." Zhihao smiled as he nodded: "I understand." "I`ll take my leave now, thank you Lord for providing us such a great chance, if you have time, you can come to the Drutre Clan, we will welcome you with open arms." The Zhen Drutre smiled as he bid Zhihao farewell. Zhihao nodded, seeing that the line of people outside is decreasing, he heaved a sigh of relief. After a few more hours, night has already descended and there are only about five people that are currently left inside. Three females and two males. The three females seemed to be checking on which to buy, while the men is standing on guard, checking everything from left to right. Zhihao glanced at these group of people before going up. "Mister!" One of the females shouted, seemingly the leader of the party, wearing a red dress and red gloves reaching to her elbow. "Young Miss!" All of the ones that are following her tried to stop her, but she''s too agile and eventually passed the four of them. Zhihao stopped, he looked back and saw an approaching woman and jumped at him with open arms as her lips are puckered, aiming at Zhihao''s lips. Immediately, a silhouette appeared between them, a gust of wind pushed the woman back a few meters away as the two men caught her. The silhouette belongs to nobody else but Ying Mai''s, she looked at the woman full of enrage, but she still suppressed her gently. The woman looked at Ying Mai as a smile formed on her lips and spoke: "Well, well, my intuition really isn''t wrong, you are a celestiality!" Ying Mai didn''t answer, she just kept glaring at her madly. The woman chuckles as she continued: "No, no, don''t get angry, my name is Estarosa Contence, I`m the princess of the Beaut Sky City, nice knowing you." After speaking, Estarosa unleashes her power out, displaying the might of a Celestiality. "I forget to add, I`m the strongest warrior of the Beaut Sky City." A smile formed on her lips after the introduction. Ying Mai glared at her and spoke: "Ying Mai, Celes..." Pausing for a bit, she looked at the ground in sadness. Riku chuckles as she spoke through her in her mind. "Would you like to stay at his Celestial General forever?" Hearing this, Ying Mai''s eyes became full of resoluteness and looked at Estarosa before continuing. "I`m Ying Mai, I am... I am his wife!" Chapter 233 Especial Price "I am... I am his wife!" Estarosa chuckles as she spoke: "Ahh, such a waste, a beautiful swan planted in a cow dung, you have a better future following me." Estarosa thought that Zhihao is just an ordinary mortal, being the Continent''s most powerful warrior, a Celestiality sovereign at the 2nd stage, clearly, she can still feel Ying Mai''s overwhelming power, to seeing Zhihao, she could feel neither power nor aura, just like a normal human. Her plan is taking Ying Mai away together with the potions and weapons they are selling in this shop, she could also find a lot of people that are as handsome as Zhihao... well, someone that''s almost as handsome as he is, and these people are also in the Celestiality level sovereign. Ying Mai frowned, she looked at Estarosa and spoke: "If you are not buying anything, you can take your leave now." Clearly, Estarosa has not placed all of her cards down, but hearing this, she knew she had offender Ying Mai. "I`m just joking with you, I`m trying to recruit the both of you to join our Beaut Sky City, we''re the leading force of the Beautiful Continent, I`m extending this invitation to all of your subordinates too." Zhihao calmly stared at her, earlier, his face became extremely red, but hearing Estarosa''s words, he woke up from his daze and got over his thoughts, he thought that Ying Mai is just playing the role he has started earlier. "Apologies, but we humbly decline your offer." Zhihao spoke to Estarosa, clearly rejecting her proposal without any hesitation and full of resolution. Estarosa''s smile suddenly vanishes, a force started to surround her two hands, she''s clearly irritated. In her thought, there''s a lot of things she wanted to say. ''How dare you, a mere mortal, speak your mind between two sovereigns!'' She had not been so offended ever since she was born, even her peers before were extremely respectful towards her, she''s the princess of the Bhie Sky City, and a mere mortal spoke to her, not as an equal, but someone that''s beneath him! Estarosa felt extremely offended, but looking at Ying Mai, she gritted her teeth and smiled. "Well, that''s a shame, but if you ever changed your mind, you guys can always go to our Sky City!" Estarosa smiled as she walked out of Zhihao''s shop. Ying Mai glared at their vanishing figure, afterward, she tried to walk out of the shop but was blocked immediately by a hand. Sadly, Ying Mai couldn''t see it due to her enraged temperament, she was holding back to avoid destroying any part of the shop, but now that they are out, she could burst her power and obliterate them to smithereens. "Poink~" A soft sound echoes as Zhihao''s hands felt something extremely incredible, looking at his side, he saw Ying Mai''s cold expression slowly melting as it evolves to a blushing innocent and pure face. "Sorry..." Zhihao spoke, trying to calm the situation. Ying Mai looked at him and nodded: "It is of no problem Master..." The two of them became awkward as the situation lasted for a few more minutes. Blythe and the others finally came back after eating their dinner, seeing the situation, they slowly returned to the dining hall. . . ... Beautiful Continent. The merchants tried to seal the pieces of information about the shop selling high tier potions and weapons, but that was still ruined, there are no secrets that are not unscathed. Warriors told their friends and those friends scattered the information, more and more people kept catching the winds about the shop that''s selling tier 4 to tier 6 items, immediately, the whole of the Beautiful continent has already been informed about it in just three days. People from all over the continent made their way to the Bhie City, bringing with them almost either all of their clans, family, or treasures that they had been stacking for years. It''s like the Bhie City has been the focal point of a storm, gathering all sorts of characters from all over the Continent. More than 10,000,000 warriors and royalties took the action and headed towards the City. . . ... The 5th day since Zhihao and Ying Mai were brought to Riku''s Celestial World. The shop selling their tier 4 potions, sadly at today, there are only tier 5 and tier 6 potions left, then, out of the 100 tier 6 weapons, there are still 78 pieces left. In total, there are more than 50,000 Tier 6 potions left, and 25,840 tier 5 potions. About half of what Zhihao and Ying Mai had made were already sold, sadly, only the tier 4 potions were the bought like hot pancakes. Antano caught winds of it as he made his way to Zhihao''s shop, together with six 6th stage Empowering Warriors. After arriving, Antano saw a very long line of people, he smiled as he chuckles at them and made his way inside without even waiting for the line. The people lining in front of the shop frowned, but thinking that these people were friends of the owner, they ignored him. One of the employees saw Antano coming, she frowned at him before her lips curved upward and spoke. "You are from the Delima Clan?" Antano chuckles as he nodded and replied: "Yes, I am." The employee smiled as she spoke: "Please come in." Seeing this, the people outside frowned, who on this line has no status? just a mere clan like the Delima Clan actually has the guts to go inside directly? A lot of people lining up has more prestige and greater position than the Delima Clan, clearly, all of the ones lining up felt offended, but they can''t do anything about it, they thought that there''s a bond between the owner and the Delima Clan. As soon as Antano entered, he saw all of the prices of the potion, he trembles at the sight of it but didn''t let it show, he might get a discount due to their previous encounter. Seeing Antano coming into their shop, all of the employees felt enrage slightly, but after just a single breathe, their lips all curves into a smile. Antano held his head up high, a lot of people knew him, they approach him and greeted. "Delima Clan Patriarch, how are you." Antano nodded his head, not bothering to answer. The one that greeted is also a Patriarch from another clan, although his clan is slightly weaker than the Delima Clan, they almost share the status, such arrogance, he wanted to fight it out with him, but due to the treatment that the employees are treating him, he tried to calm himself down and backed off. Antano walked to the front as he asked the saleswoman. "How much for the 6th-grade potion?" The employee smiled at him as she replied: "Sir, that''s 2,000 white phoenix gold." Antano frowned, he can clearly see the prices tagged at it, he then asked again: "Is there any... you know... a special price that the owner had given for my Delima Clan?" Antano emphasizes the word "Delime Clan" so that the employee can understand what he is talking about. Hearing this, the employee pretended to ponder and exclaimed. "Ah! that''s right! I nearly forgot!" Hearing this, Antano smiled as he nodded his head. The employee immediately followed up and continued: "Yes, the owner stated that all from the Delima Clan..." the employee slows down, pretending to remember what Zhihao had told her, she then opened her eyes and continued. "That everyone from the Delima Clan will be sold four times the actual price! and everyone close to the Delima Clan will have the prices doubled!" Antano nodded, but after a while, he opened his eyes wide open in shock. "This... are you..." "Yes! The owner clearly stated that that''s the price your Delima Clan will be served with!" Hearing this, the surrounding people, even the ones outside smirked, there is a single thought on their mind. ''Yes, they have a bond, a bond of enmity.'' All of the low-level clans that are under a partnership with the Delima Clan heard it immediately made plans to part and separate any type of business they have with them. All of the people outside forming a line chuckles as they started their own discussion. Clearly, this is a statement, that anyone that''s involved with the Delima Clan can go down with the Delima Clan, this is a death sentence only the supreme people that has advantage can do to a minor clan. ''A Clan going to ruins just because of a mistake.'' Some people already heard the fight with the owner of the shop and the Delima Clan, after hearing this story, a lot of people spread the news, like the wind, it traveled so fast, every clan that''s buying and selling products from the Delima Clan immediately cut ties with them. "Hmmp!" Antano snorted as he made his way outside, all of the people smugly looked at him, like looking at a dead person. Zhihao on the 5th floor is just mixing more potions and crafting weapons to be sold for the next days together with Ying Mai, not knowing that he had killed and destroyed a Clan unintentionally. Chapter 234 Gues 9th Day on the Bloody Divine Celestial World. Zhihao announced in front of his shop that there are only 6th tier weapons and potions left. With that news, a lot of people made their way back to their respective residence and kingdoms. The day is not as busy as before, Zhihao has earned a lot of money, but after that, he has no further ideas of what to do. In the end, Zhihao has decided to gift each of them some money, for the adults, Zhihao gave them a bonus of 10,000 white phoenix golds, for the children, Zhihao gave them money ranging from 100 to 500 white phoenix golds, depending on their age. Zhihao after a while gathered them, he needs to do something if he''ll be doing something for Riku. "I would like to ask if all of you want to train? enhance your power?" Hearing Zhihao''s words, they looked at each other, they are already at the age between 30 to 50, it would really be hard for people their age to start training, the prime age for people to train is at the age between 14 to 25, after that, they''ll start to slow down on the progress, unless that person reaches Celestiality, their lifespan would increase from a mortal''s age of until 100 and will increase by 10,000, such a huge leap of lifespan can clearly help people to train themselves. All of them shook their head and rejected the idea. Zhihao would like to start helping Riku in reconstructing her World through Blythe''s subordinate and her, so he added. "I can help you all to become stronger, much stronger than you can imagine." Hearing what Zhihao has said, they were shocked even more, even at their age, they could still become stronger? One of them approached and asked: "Master, can we really become stronger?" Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Yes, although it will be a little hard, all of you will become stronger." The sound of Zhihao''s words continues to echo inside their head, they looked at Zhihao and answered simultaneously. "Master, please help us!" After speaking, all of them kneeled to the ground with their head knocking on the soil. Zhihao nodded and replied: "I will, you all may stand up now." "Yes!" Zhihao looked at Riku and asked through their minds: "How will they train?" Riku nodded and replied: "Well, the very first level of empowering training is bonding with your weapon, familiarizing yourself with the aura that it exuding, that is the most basics of everything, but sadly, that teaching has been forgotten through the passage of time." Zhihao nodded, but Riku added another thing. "The first thing they''ll need to do is own a sword of at least a tier 1, the maximum would be a tier 3, but possessing a sword at the same level as they are in the most suitable. They need to feel their energy traveling to the sword and back to them." Zhihao nodded and spoke: "All of you will start after the shop closes." "Yes!" Everyone nodded and made their way back to the shop to open it for the business hour. Zhihao made his way back to the top floor, he''d need to make a couple of tier 1 weapons to have them train for it. Ying Mai didn''t follow this time, she stayed on the first floor and took a rest there. The business is not as hard as before, there are just people coming and going, only a few people from the whole of the Beautiful Continent that can actually afford a 6th-grade potion and weapon inside the shop. So, other than casually looking around, people would just pass by, waiting for any 4th or 5th-grade items to appear again. . . ... "Patriarch! The Widen Clan has pulled out all of their trades with us!" "Patriarch! The Hrazan Clan has cut all ties with us!" "Patriarch! The Red Capslin has removed their investment towards our armory!" "Patriarch! The Franlan Clan is annulling the wedding engagement between Young Master and their Young Miss''s!" "Patriarch!" "Patriarch!..." Continued report of Clans breaking their ties with their Clan, the man they are calling patriarch is none other than Antano. Antano frowned, clearly, witnessing the products inside that shop and the news that they had issued, he already figured that this will happen. ''I`m not going down here... I need to leave this clan... I have no more future here...'' Antano looked at the sky as he spoke in a low tone. "I, Antano Trillatuko, will not fall, not in this useless Clan!" After making up his mind, he wrote a letter and left it at the patriarch''s throne before sneakily flee from the Delima Clan. After a few minutes, a person approaches the chair and saw the note, she opened up the note and after a few breathes, she clenched it tightly and burnt it to ashes. "Antano! You spineless coward! All you know is throw alibi and excuses! I`ll definitely kill you... I`ll definitely bring you down together with me even if it''s the last thing I`ll ever do!" That woman is Lila Delima, Antano''s husband... wife... she looked at the wide area outside the Grand Hall and spoke. "Bring some men and follow me! We''ll hunt down that trash!" Immediately, four people appeared and replied: "Yes!" After replying, all of them scattered to all of the direction. Lila with rage surging from her heart, she marched with a heavy step and cursed. "I`ll bury your Trillatuko Clan together with my Clan! you won''t escape me even after I die!" . . ... With the lack of customers, Zhihao had decided to close the shop earlier. He gathered everyone on the 2nd floor of the building. "We will start your training now." "Yes!" Everyone replied expectantly, both children and adults together, even Ollie and Blythe are here, they wouldn''t want to miss the teaching of someone from the Perfect Continent. Zhihao nodded as he withdrew weapons after weapons, a total of 400 tier 1 weapons. "Choose any weapon that you all feel that you`d like to have." "Yes!" After replying, all of them stood up, looking at any weapon that they''d like to wield. After a while, all of them came back with weapons in their hand. Zhihao nodded as he continued: "Try to feel your weapon, let your energy flow inside your weapon, and try to retrieve the energy inside the weapon and circulate it inside your body simultaneously, continuously repeat this circulation and train on it until it has gone to midnight, if you guys couldn''t do it, all of you can stop on thinking of training again." "YES!" All of them resolutely replied as they started to train and do as Zhihao instructed. Zhihao stood up and walked towards the top floor as Ying Mai followed with Riku on top of her shoulder. Arriving on the 5th floor, Zhihao looked at Riku and asked. "Is that good? they will be training like that for 9 hours without stopping." Riku nodded as she replied: "Yes, in my time, mortals are doing it weeks using normal weapons, some are even using normal woods and rocks, but if they couldn''t do something like that, it will only mean that they lack the willpower to continue." Zhihao nodded as he looked at the sky and spoke. "I just wish... that they can go through it without any problems..." Then, after just a few breaths of time, the three of them heard a noise. "Come out here! I need to talk to you!" Zhihao looked at below and saw someone he had not seen before. "I`m from the Perfect Continent!" Chapter 235 Whisper with Wings "I`m from the Perfect Continent!" Hearing this, both Ying Mai and Zhihao''s expression didn''t change, they then looked at Riku waiting for her answer. Riku shook her head and spoke. "There are no brands in his blood, every citizen of each continent has a brand on their blood, I personally made it, if he came from the Perfect Continent, there will be a brand in their blood, I`ve already seen his blood brand, and it comes from the Beautiful Continent''s." Zhihao and Ying Mai nodded in understanding, Zhihao looked at Ying Mai and spoke. "Greet the guest for me." Ying Mai nodded as she vanishes in front of Zhihao and appears on the first floor, Riku also followed, Zhihao had sent her there in case something untoward happens to Ying Mai, Ying Mai arriving on the first floor immediately opened the door, she looked at the man who''s shouting in front of their store, he is at the 1st stage of Celestiality, there are also about ten men standing behind him, all at the 9th level The man immediately smiled as he spoke: "Hello, I`m from the Perfect Continent, recently I had heard some rumors circulating that someone from the Beautiful Continent is using our prestigious nam-" He didn''t have a chance to finish his word as Ying Mai spoke: "Pretenders from the Beautiful continent, I`ll give you this warning and this warning only, once you use the name Perfect Continent again, I`ll directly march my way and sink your Sky City down to the ground." After speaking, Ying Mai closes the door as she walks back to return to the 5th floor, the words she had spoken left a deep impression in those men. All of them including the Celestiality sovereign couldn''t but shudder, hearing her reply, he immediately departed and made their way back. One of the men behind him spoke: "They must be from the Perfect Continent, that confidence..." "I know, you don''t need to tell me that." The one leading them frowned, he could still clearly remember the glare that Ying Mai looked at them with. "Let''s go! we need to report it to Young Miss!" "Yes!" The man leading them is glad, they still have the chance to take back their life with them after trying to impersonate someone from the Perfect Continent in front of someone that lives there, clearly, they''ve narrowly escaped death''s grasp. . . ... Ying Mai is currently on the 4th floor going up to the 5th floor, but something unexpected happened. "GRAAAA!" A loud shout of excruciating pain and agony was heard where they left Zhihao. "Master!" Ying Mai immediately rushes, after arriving, Ying Mai couldn''t believe what she saw, she went to Zhihao''s side. Zhihao''s arms, the both of them are void of any skin, a hot smoke is coming out of it as the sword in his hands turns into specks of dust, his muscles are still being burnt to crisps. Even with Zhihao''s superior regenerative ability, the flames are still overpowering it, and without the aid of his power, the flames are simply unstoppable. "Master! What''s happening!" Ying Mai asked she kept touching his arms, trying to dissolve the flames but to no avail. "Move Mai, I`ll handle it!" The voice came from Riku, seeing her, Ying Mai moved aside. "Woooosh!" Riku flapped her wings as she sucked out the flames from Zhihao''s arms and directly absorbs it. After the flames vanished, Zhihao''s arms recover in an extremely fast phase, he slumps into the floor as he looked at Riku. "Thanks, Riku..." "Idiot! I already told you that you can''t! you wouldn''t be able to train the power inside my Celestial World! My World is separated from any other realms, you wouldn''t have any chance of training it!" Riku exclaimed, she has already warned him before, but looking at the sight of him, she clearly knew that Zhihao had tried comprehending the power of her world, thus, the outcome is clear. Three minutes earlier. Seeing that Riku and Ying Mai had gone out, a smile forms in Zhihao''s lips as he picked up a tier 1 sword. He did what Riku has instructed, but after just his first try, the system immediately echoed continuously. *Ding!* =Warning, you can''t learn the power of Celestiality! *Ding!* =Celestial Energy is enraged, the power is going to devour you! *Ding!* =Vermillion Bird''s Eternal Flame has started to eat your hands. *Ding!* =The eternal flame is devouring your arms! Zhihao''s arms started to be wrapped in red colored flames, melting his skin and burning his muscles. "Break for me!" Zhihao tried to summon his power but to no avail, he tried to cover it up with his robe, but the flame became ethereal, completely ignoring the robe as it continued on devouring his arms. Zhihao gritted his teeth as he tried everything, even scraping the meat that''s getting burnt by the eternal flames. The pain is not that much, but with the continuous, he felt that it will only take a few minutes for the flame to devour him completely. "If vanquishing you won''t do, I`ll try to absorb you instead!" After speaking, Zhihao tried to absorb the flames like how he gathers Spiritual Energy, but as soon as he did, the eternal flames seethe inside his bone, a very heart aching pain is felt as soon as it entered, his vein started to convulse, he tried to fight it but it soon reached his internal organs. "GRAAAAA!" "Master!" . . ... Zhihao looked at Riku apologetically, Riku snorted as she spoke: "See the price you have to pay once you''ve violated the rules of my Celestial World?" Zhihao nodded, he looked at Riku again and spoke: "I need to become stronger! I''ve seen a dream..." "A dream?" Riku asked in wonder. "A dream, where... where, I was with everyone, I made a path of blood with Titans behind me, but after all that, I couldn''t move anymore, I was struck by so many weapons and became disabled, my loved ones and comrades fought the war for me... but in the end... we still lost, without even the chance to flee, I don''t want that to happen in the future!" Zhihao explained, if that dream will really to happen, Riku can already guess that Zhihao really needs some strength to back up her Young Master''s plan, Arthariaz''s plan to destroy the plot of his younger brother and the Titans. Riku sighed, she knew that the Titans are just around the corner, especially with Akasha''s appearance, it became clearer and clearer. Zhihao is nowhere near a match to any of the Titans, even simple underlings could kill him with his current state, what more for the elites. Riku sighs and spoke: "You need to grow stronger, that doesn''t mean that you should recklessly die." After speaking, Riku flew out of the room and called: "Ying Mai! Follow me!" Ying Mai hesitated, she looked at Zhihao for an order. Zhihao nodded his head, he needs to contemplate for it too. "Master, I`ll be going for now." Ying Mai spoke before leaving with Riku. . . ... Arriving at the 3rd floor, Riku enters a room before she transforms into her human form and spoke. "Ying Mai... I''m treating you like my own daughter, even though the both of us had only met days, since you are the very first person that I like, I`m helping you out of my own good will." Ying Mai stood in front of her and nodded. "Well, would you like to help your Master?" Ying Mai didn''t reply, instead, she looked at Riku full of resolution and nodded. "Well, since you are my, Riku''s celestial daughter, I can make it so that you can help him." "Please tell me how." Ying Mai asked. Riku nodded her head and continued: "Well, I`m going to form a contract with you, and after your blood will start to change into a Celestial''s blood, don''t worry, you won''t evolve into someone like a beast, you`ll stay as a human with at least, more than half of my power through the time you`ll train," Ying Mai nodded, Riku looked at her and smiled. "Well, after that, you`ll most likely be someone of the Celestial World''s inhabitant, clearly you can practice the power inside my World." Riku looked at Ying Mai and continued: "My daughter, come here and I`ll tell you how you`ll help him." Ying Mai nodded as she went forward. Riku''s charming lips parted as she whispered something in Ying Mai''s ears. After a while, Ying Mai parted with Riku, her face is extremely red as she kept trembling. Riku chuckles as she transforms back to her bird form and added. "Well, it is all up to you... my Celestial Daughter. Fufufufu." After speaking, Riku flew out of the room and soared the sky, leaving the stunned Ying Mai there alone with her body completely red. Ying Mai woke up from her daze as she sat on the floor with both of her hands on her face. "I... I can''t do that!" Chapter 236 Frustration Inside the Shop. Ying Mai didn''t bother to return to the 5th floor and headed to the 4th floor to sleep, with what Riku had told her, it would be impossible for her to actually face Zhihao. Zhihao, on the other hand, is drinking himself drunk with the wines he had purchased before. . "Will it really be the same as I had with my dreams? . Will I really become powerless? . Unable to change anything?" Drinking another cup of wine, Zhihao looked at the sky as he solemnly let time pass by. Riku saw this as she sighs, she was about to go to Zhihao''s side and tease him a little, but seeing his dejected mood, she had decided to let it be today. Riku descended to the 3rd floor and rested there. Midnight came, the Cantar''s subordinates finally finished their training as they stood up and stretched out their stiff bodies and made their way to rest. Due to their wills and persistence, they finished the training, even the children had done it. . . ... Fast, Morning came, everyone made preparation for opening the shop and breakfast. Zhihao didn''t sleep, he went down to the 4th floor and knocked on the door where Ying Mai is resting. "Mai, we''ll go for a stroll." After a while, there was no response, but when Zhihao thought that she''s still asleep and was about to walk away, the door suddenly opened. "Master!" Ying Mai is panting, fully dressed, although her dress is slightly chaotic, she''s still in a decent form, she was only wearing her undergarments as she sleeps and hearing Zhihao''s knocking, she immediately dressed. Zhihao chuckles as he spoke: "Fix your dress first, we''ll be going out in a while." Ying Mai blushes as she nodded and replied: "Yes, Master." After a few minutes, Ying Mai finished fixing her dress and made her way out to Zhihao. "Master, I`m ready." Zhihao nodded as he looked at Ying Mai, and just as he looked at Ying Mai, he was astounded. Ying Mai blushes and spoke: "This is a dress that Riku has given me." Ying Mai is wearing a red phoenix outfit, although her shoulders are sealed, her stomach and back is showing, her most delicate curves are showing out, snow white skin as smooth as baby''s skin and soft as a feather, Zhihao was stunned, seeing her not so revealing clothes, he became flustered. "Riku said that it''s a battle dress, although, it is not as strong as the one Master is wearing, it can at least hold its own like half of your set''s quality." Ying Mai explained, hearing her words, Zhihao woke up from his daze and nodded his head as he replied. "That''s great, it suits you perfectly, let''s go." After speaking, Zhihao smiled at her as he headed down the stairs. Ying Mai nodded as she followed Zhihao to the first floor. Reaching the first floor, Zhihao looked at Blythe and spoke. "We''ll be going out for a while, you can take over and handle the shop." "Yes, Big Brother!" After replying, she looked at Ying Mai and ran towards her as she whispers. "Big Sis! good luck! you should treasure honeymoon like this sweetly!" Ying Mai blushes slightly and nodded, although she didn''t like Blythe that much, but after her ''reminder'', she took an extreme liking towards Blythe. Patting Blythe''s head she spoke: "We''ll be going now." Blythe nodded as she replied: "See you later! Big Brother! Big Sister!" Zhihao nodded as both of them made their way out. "Where would you like to go?" "Master, anywhere with you is what I only wish." Ying Mai spoke without any hesitation, making Zhihao stunned for a few moments before nodding his head. "Riku, we''d like to go to a place with a lot of monsters." Ying Mai was shocked, she couldn''t even feel Riku''s presence, but her Master just spoke like he''s there, Ying Mai is bewildered, based on Riku''s statement, Zhihao''s powers are currently sealed. "Hmmmp! I only want to watch a great show! why would you even spoil that!" Out of nowhere, a dimensional scar appears as a red bird flew out of it. Zhihao looked at Riku and asked: "Riku, when I was burnt yesterday, what burnt me is not phoenix flame, what flame is that?" Riku looked at Zhihao and summoned a dimension scar: "That''s my elder''s sister''s power, The Vermilion Bird, but you wouldn''t see her, she''s with the creator, our father." Pausing for a bit, Riku looked sad, she then looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Go on in now, I`ll protect the shop while you two are out." Zhihao and Ying Mai nodded as they entered the dimensional scar, leaving Riku behind. Riku looked at the sky as she spoke in a low tone: "Father... Sisters, Brothers... I miss the time that there were only nine of us..." After speaking, Riku flew from her location and went back to the shop. . . ... Arriving at their destination, Zhihao and Ying Mai looked left and right. Seeing tall trees, mountains reaching the heavens, and monsters as big as houses, some are even as big as a building. Ying Mai looked at Zhihao and asked: "Master, what will we do here?" "We''ll train." After replying, Zhihao dashed forward as he wielded two of his weapons. Zhihao moved from monsters to monsters, killing them with purely his brute strength. Ying Mai looked at the scene as she couldn''t help but wept tears of sadness. This is no training, Zhihao is killing monsters, like slaughtering chickens, the poor souls became the stress reliever for Zhihao''s frustration. After an hour, Zhihao panted as he already killed almost thousands of monsters, their levels consist of different levels between 3rd stage monsters to 6th stage ones. If someone sees him, they might think that it''s a devil that has descended from hell, cover with blood from head to toe, walking with his two swords still dripping wet from the massacre, he just did. Zhihao only used normal weapons, well, the 6th tier ones, but after the slaughter, the edges of each sword seemed sharper than before. A man flying in the sky saw this scene, he stopped and watch Zhihao''s movements, killing the monsters one by one. "Interesting." The man smiled as he nodded in approval: "He must''ve had a bad experience." The man then looked at Zhihao full of interest, checking every movements of his, like someone trying to check on its prey, his eyes widely opened and exclaimed. "He''s a normal human?! But how can he possess such strength!" He watched Zhihao''s berserk until the end, and the moment he did, he looked back and walked to somewhere, covered with blood. In the direction where Zhihao is going, a silhouette of a beautiful woman is looking at Zhihao with eyes full of tears, but as soon as Zhihao is close to her, her tears vanishes as it evaporated out of sight. The man smiled yet again as he spoke: "Hahaha, a Mortal and Celestial couple, such a tragic scene, maybe that''s the reason for his rampage..." Pausing for a bit, he looked at Zhihao and added: "Maybe... just maybe... that''s what he''s trying to prove, to prove that even he, as a mortal can accomplish something." "Interesting." Chapter 237 Old Man Heaven Sealer The man flying in the sky, carrying the pride of a sovereign as he flies like he''s the heaven itself. Looking at Zhihao, the man couldn''t help but ponder. "How can a mortal possess such great strength? or is he someone stronger than me?" Pausing for a bit, the man looked at Zhihao and tried to scan him with his celestial energy. Zhihao is currently depressed as he walks towards Ying Mai, then out of nowhere. *Ding!* =Someone is prying to your body, distance is 800 meters west of the host flying in the sky. Zhihao stopped as he looked at the area where the System had spoken to, there, he saw a man flying above the sky. The man opened his eyes widely in shock: "He can detect me? is he a hidden power? or is it instinct?" With Zhihao''s action, the man immediately had hundreds of questions, just after a few breathes, the man sighed, he then descended from the sky onto the ground, flicking his fingers, his outfit changes into a tattered robe immediately. "Hello, children." The man spoke, not in an over-bearing tone, but a calm and amicable phase. Zhihao only looked at the man, there are no killing intents nor maliciousness on his eyes, Zhihao calms himself and spoke. "What is it?" "Hoo oh, quite a temper for a kid your age." The man spoke as he chuckles to the both of them. Ying Mai flew to the side of Zhihao prepared to fight. Seeing Ying Mai, the man tried to probe, shock took over his confidence, he could barely see her power, a mysterious power is flowing inside her, if not a match for him, it could also be more powerful than himself. "Young King, where are you from? wait, are you really a child?" Ying Mai frowned before answering: "I`m already old, I`m 134 years of age, don''t call me a child." Hearing the word coming out of Ying Mai''s mouth, the man is yet again shocked. "The time you entered Celestiality, is the age below 20? you look the same as a teenager, where did the both of you come from? I haven''t heard of a place that has a Celestiality Sovereign at your age, no, not even any Celestiality Sovereign anywhere." Ying Mai sighed, this man has a lot of question. "We are from nowhere, for someone that hasn''t introduced himself, you ask a lot of questions." Zhihao spoke in a stern expression, although he didn''t want to be rude, with his current mood, there really is no way for him to be welcoming, especially to a probing man. The man opened his eyes, he laughs and replied: "Pardon my rudeness, My name... My name I already have forgotten through the times of passing, but many people call me Old Man Heaven Sealer, I`m the strongest Celestiality Sovereign of the Perfect Continent, my age... more than 100,000 years old." Zhihao was shocked after hearing the age, but remembering what Riku had told the both of them, Ying Mai and him accepted the facts. The old man chuckles as he continued. "Sorry to probe into your private affairs, but are the two of you on the run? lovers, that want to be together but are forbidden by the lady''s family? because of your inability to become a Celestiality Sovereign but with your fighting spirit, you breached the wall of mortals and became a really strong warrior?" Hearing this, Zhihao was shocked, what kind of mind does this old man have? Ying Mai, on the other hand, likes the sound of it, she blushed and chuckles. "It''s a one-sided love for me..." Ying Mai was shocked at her own words, the mood that the old man is carrying actually made Ying Mai open up, after speaking, Ying Mai''s face immediately became unhappy, as the middle of her brows moved upward and the edges down with a sad smile on her face. Hearing this, Zhihao opened his eyes widely, looking at the ground and thought. ''This is not just about me... I need the people around me too... why have I changed so much... do I really need to shoulder everything on my own?'' Zhihao paused his thought and looked at Ying Mai, seeing the sad expression on her face, Zhihao couldn''t help but smile, immediately, Zhihao held Ying Mai''s hands and spoke. "It''s not really a one-sided love, it''s a mutual for us." Zhihao finally understood his own heart, he''s rejecting all of the feelings of those that love him dearly, to him, the thought of losing the ones you love is extremely hard, but now, his thinking immediately changed, he just needs to grow stronger so that those that he loves doesn''t have to suffer or be lost. Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ying Mai didn''t lift her head, tears flowed down from her eyes down to her cheeks, tears of joy could be seen as she looks at the ground with satisfaction. "Ahem, I hate to ruin your mood, but I`m still here." The old man chuckles as he spoke. Zhihao and Ying Mai both blush as they parted, Zhihao''s mood lifted up after finding his resolution, he looked at the man and asked. "What does senior need? the both of us need to go back." Heaven Sealer looked at Zhihao in bewilderment, Ying Mai, someone that can be termed as powerful as him, or might also be stronger is chasing after Zhihao, the fact that he, Heaven Sealer had been roaming all the continent trying to find anything of interest made it known to him that he''s the strongest in the whole World, but who would have thought that a casual walk here can make him discover two outstanding people. "I''d like to know... to which continent or rather, which World had the both of you come from?" Hearing him spoke, Zhihao and Ying Mai''s aura surged forth without warning, Zhihao''s killing intent shackled Heaven Sealer''s powers, combined with Ying Mai''s murderous intent, he couldn''t even move. Ying Mai''s spiritual energy showed up as an illusion of a phoenix appeared behind her back. "This..." For the first time after so many thousands of years, Heaven Sealer, the strongest man in the Celestial World felt threatened, not just a simple threat, but something that could take his life away. Never in his wildest imagination that such a question can kill him someday. Curiosity Killed the cat is the saying that perfectly fits his current standing. Chapter 238 Returning Heaven Sealer, the number one expert in the whole Celestial World is being forced down powerless by two people that are not even a tenth of his age. "Wait! Wait! Calm down first! the both of you." Bearing no ill intent, Zhihao retracted his killing intent and waved his hands at Ying Mai to stop. "Wooo, the both of you sure are some serious fellows, I just wanted to ask, but the both of you immediately intended to kill me, I`m just a curious old man." Although he''s trying to calm the duo, he is just genuinely curious, as someone that roams the Celestial World with absolute strength, he found himself bored of life, and since he has a lot of time to spare, he wishes to find something interesting. Seeing two people at the power that even he couldn''t afford to offend, his interest took him to a higher level. "I would just like to ask some things..." "Five questions, not more!" Ying Mai immediately frowned, with the way Heaven Sealer had been asking them, there definitely would be tons of questions. Zhihao chuckles as he heard Ying Mai''s immediate reply. "Yes, Yes, of course, five questions." Heaven Sealer actually has thousands of questions he wanted to ask, but hearing Ying Mai''s resolute terms, he needed to narrow all of it down to five. "The first is... are you from this World or are you from some secret power, if so, where di you come from." "That''s two question, I`ll answer it both..." Ying Mai immediately replied, but before she could continue, Heaven Sealer immediately exclaimed. "Wait! Wait! Where are the both of you from?! That''s my first question!" Ying Mai looked at Zhihao, he immediately nodded, giving Ying Mai approval to speak. Heaven Sealer kept looking at the duo, in the way the both of them did things, clearly, Ying Mai is the follower and Zhihao is the Master. Heaven Sealer seeing this had answered tens of the questions on his mind, clearly, in his eyes, Zhihao is a being more powerful than Ying Mai and he himself. "We''re from the Cultivation Realm, Gailea Continent." Heaven Sealer nodded and proceeded to the next question: "How many worlds are out there? and please pardon my request, can I add this to the question, how many people are much more stronger than me?" Ying Mai pondered for a while before answering: "I`m not so sure myself, you can ask my Master." After speaking, Ying Mai looked at Zhihao. Heaven Sealer did the same, his theory is correct, Zhihao really is the master. Zhihao looked at the sky before looking at Heaven Sealer and replied: "As many as you can count, both the World and the people that are stronger than you." Hearing this Heaven Sealer nodded, with the strength, Ying Mai had shown him, he can clearly accept that logic. "Then, in terms of strength, in what rank are the both of you with the powers outside this World." Zhihao answered again without hesitation: "We''re not even at the tip of the power struggle." Heaven Sealer is shocked to the extreme, someone as strong as them are not even at the tip? "Clearly, I''ve been viewing the sky at the bottom of the well." Heaven Sealer looked at Zhihao and asked once more. "What is the goal for the both of you?" Heaven Sealer wants to hear something, as an old man, he really wants to know more, like a child starting to learn some things new, his eyes are sparkling. "It''s to stop chaos from happening, destroying the plan of the Titan Realms in wrecking havoc to the whole universe, aiding the Gods in preventing the chaos that is the plan of the Titans." Hearing this, Heaven Sealer was shocked furthermore, such a thing will happen? that is really... really... REALLY INTERESTING!!! Heaven Sealer looked at Zhihao and immediately spoke: "Please let me follow you and aid your cause, I`ll definitely not let you down!" Zhihao was about to reject, but before he could, a dimensional scar opened and a silhouette flew out, a red bird and immediately spoke. "You would not be able to leave my World, even if you try your best." "Riku!" Both Zhihao and Ying Mai exclaimed. Heaven Sealer looked at the bird, although there are monsters that can speak human languages, all of them are big and scary looking creatures. Riku transformed into a phoenix shocking Heaven Sealer further. "This... the divine phoenix Goddess!" Heaven Sealer couldn''t shut his mouth that''s wide open, the Phoenix, a tale of old millions of years ago, the being that transcends all living things. Riku looked at Zhihao and Ying Mai and spoke: "It''s time for the both of you to return." Zhihao and Ying Mai nodded and entered the dimensional scar, Zhihao looked at Heaven Sealer and spoke: "Well, it is nice knowing you." The both of them vanished without a trace, leaving Riku at Heaven Sealer alone. Heaven Sealer kneeled as he bowed to the ground. "Do you want to be part of the chaos that''s brewing in the whole of many realms?" Riku spoke as she stared at Heaven Sealer. "Out of interest, I want to, but if the Goddess orders me too, I`ll definitely help with all I could." "Your will for it is not set, you are like a child that''s only doing things for fun." After speaking, Riku also dived into the dimensional scar and vanished without waiting for Heaven Sealer to speak. Heaven Sealer looked at the horizon, without a trace of the three people he had talked with. "I... The passion I had when I was young, have I lack any will before..." Heaven Sealer sighed as he returns to the way he had gone before. . . ... Zhihao and Ying Mai returned to the shop on the 5th floor. "I''ve already succeeded in my plans for the both of you, I`ll continue to teach the people down the first floor, I`ll leave the both of you to your own now." After Riku spoke, she changed into her human form and wrapped herself full with a black robe and hood. "This..." The two of them awkwardly looked at each other and blushes, a few distances away from one another. Riku sighed, although Zhihao finally made some progress, he''s still like a hermit, not knowing what to do with the opposite gender. "Ahh... It''s great to be young, but I`ll form a contract with Ying Mai before continuing." After speaking, Riku went to the first floor and closed the shop. Riku went back to fetch them so that they could proceed with the mood they had, she''s mad too, because someone actually ruined the mood and didn''t go out of the way. "That kid, I`ll definitely make it hard for him if he comes here." Chapter 239 A Sword in Hand, Death on Sigh Another six days have passed. Zhihao moved down to the first floor, it is already dark, Blythe''s people had been training for about 3 hours. Walking to the people that are currently practicing what Zhihao had told them. One of them opened his eyes and looked at Zhihao, he stood up and walks toward him. "Master..." Zhihao looked at the man and asked: "What is it?" "Master, are we really practicing something that can help us grow stronger?" "Why do you ask that?" The man looked at the ground and spoke: "Master, we aren''t feeling anything of the sort of power that brother Ollie had told us before." Zhihao looked at the man and spoke: "The king of feeling that Ollie had felt before? what do you mean by that?" The man pondered for a bit before replying. "Master, it is a warm feeling the will extend from your arm to your sword, but all of us have not felt anything of the sort." "So, you think that I am just playing with all of your lives?" Zhihao asked, his tone serious and expression stern. The man looked at Zhihao, with a serious face too: "Master, we just want to know if you are using us at your own leisure to pass your time." The man paused for a bit as a smile formed on his lips and continued. "If that is so, we could do, even more, we owe the Master our current life, you gave us a path to survive, whether it is to climb mountains of blades or seas of flames, we would not hesitate, even the slightest." Zhihao hearing this was shocking, so they don''t want to protest, instead, they just want to return Zhihao something even better, clearly, if everything goes to what the man is saying, that is really a boring thing to do if someone wishes to play with their lives, so they wish to change it and heed his orders for something more drastic, even at the cost of their lives. Zhihao chuckles as he nodded and spoke: "Everyone stands up." Everyone stood up immediately, hearing his order with a serious face, ready to accept his orders, even the children too. For the recent days, they kept changing their weapons, although they didn''t think much, they thought that Zhihao only did it for entertainment. "Lift up your weapon and start gathering the power inside your whole body and direct it to your weapons." Hearing Zhihao''s words, all of them opened their eyes widely, wasn''t everything for his entertainment? maybe they thought wrong, immediately, they thought of it and started to gather that unfamiliar feeling inside their body and tried to direct it to their weapons. "This..." Everyone was shocked, their weapons lightened up to a bright crimson red aura, exuding extreme sharpness. "6th stage of Empowering Warrior!" Ollie exclaimed, unable to believe what''s happening in front of his eyes, all of the people that had done it actually became warriors of such quality, and with proper training, all of them could become elites of the elites inside the city. Ollie then tried it himself, but the one feeling he had is gone, instead of his arms only, his whole body is feeling the warmth. "8th stage of Empowering Warrior!" Ollie is shocked, he himself had level up to such a degree just by joining their practice. All of them looked at Zhihao in shock too, they couldn''t believe it, such a thing is actually possible? Zhihao smiled at them and spoke: "Continue with your training." After speaking, Zhihao walks out of the backyard, clearly with satisfaction. "Yes!" Everyone replied in excitement, their morale couldn''t help but reach the peak. . . ... Zhihao walks towards the shop counter and sighed, he couldn''t help but think of the Cultivation World, although it had just been a few months, he already missed the people back there, especially his wives and children. "Open up!" Out of nowhere, a shout echoes. Zhihao frowned, just at the moment that his mood is dumped, someone is causing a ruckus. Ying Mai immediately appeared in front of him: "Master, I`ll handle it." Zhihao shook his head and spoke: "No, I can''t let you do the dirty things, for now, we are going out now, and it would be rude for my lady to do the work for me." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ying Mai blushes and nodded. Zhihao opened up the door and immediately saw men numbering about 50, a woman is standing beside a handsome man. "Young Master Aqrano, that''s the man that is aiding the Cantar Family''s Young Miss." Zhihao frowned and spoke in a low tone: "Estarosa..." The Young Master that Estarosa had spoken too seemed to have a much higher status than Estarosa, the Princess of the Bhie Sky City. "Thank you for reporting it to our Royal City, I`ll personally make a recommendation for your family an increase in nobility." Estarosa smiled at him and nodded: "Pleasure is all mine, Young Master." The man frowned as he walks forward, the men immediately gave way. "I`m Nandoi Aqrano, The Heir to the Beautiful Sky Kingdom of the Beautiful Continent, you can address me as Prince Nandoi." After speaking to Zhihao, he looks around, like someone who''s searching for something, or somebody. Zhihao frowned, the arrogance this man is showing is beyond belief. "Zhihao, a merchant from the Perfect Continent." "Where is Blythe Cantar? I want to see her standing in front of me now." Nandoi spoke, like someone that holds extreme authority over Zhihao, underestimating him, completely ignoring his introduction. Hearing this, Zhihao felt totally shocked, such arrogance could clearly become one''s death. "I know you have a Celestiality Sovereign with you, but, you are not the only one who has them." After Nandoi spoke, five people soared into the sky as they glared at Zhihao. "They are 2nd and 3rd stage Celestiality, the elites amongst the elites of my Country, you are helping a refugee of the Royal Capital, but since you are from the Perfect Continent, I`ll pardon your rudeness." Pausing for a bit, Nandoi glanced at him before continuing. "Hand over Blythe Cantar and we''ll clear the slates between us." Just right after he spoke, someone run towards the door: "Big Bro! They only want me, please don''t get involved." Blythe walks out of the door with a sad expression, but a smile still forms in her lips, she knew that this day would arrive sooner or later, but with her subordinates having a steady life now, she has no further regret. Zhihao smiled at her and stopped her from walking forward, he bends his body to pat Blythe''s head and spoke: "Let big brother handle it for you." "But... But..." Ying Mai walks towards her and pulled her back: "Don''t worry, your big brother can handle something so simple." Nandoi frowned, hearing such words coming out of Zhihao''s mouth, a mere mortal wants to challenge his authority even though he had given him a chance, a rope for survival? Nandoi bought five Celestiality Sovereigns and the rest of his men were part of the most elite soldiers their kingdom has, all 10th stage Empowering Warriors. Nandoi opened his eyes, but scanning the surrounding, he finally saw Ying Mai''s appearance. "Such beauty." He smirks as a thought went working inside his brain: ''A beauty wasted on a mortal merchant, I`ll need to give her a better life as a prince of the Beautiful Continent''s royal family.'' "Men! Kill that man for me!" "YES PRINCE!" Three men moved forward as they drew their sword, empowering their weapons with powers. "Big Brother!" Blythe tried to move forward, but as soon as she did, Ying Mai stopped her. When Nandoi''s men reached a meter away from Zhihao, the three of them stopped. "Sorry for all of you, following such a useless Master." Zhihao spoke in a sympathetic tone, clearly, soldiers only followed their Master''s orders. After Zhihao''s words vanished, the three men slumped down to the ground. Seeing the three top grade soldiers going down without a fight, All of them looked at Zhihao who''s now holding a sword that only has a single edge, something like a Katana. But what''s weird is not the sword for them, they never felt any fluctuation of any energy, neither had they seen Zhihao moved an inch. Zhihao glared at Nandoi and spoke: "Are you going to keep sending your men or are you going to take action on your own?" A Sword in Hand, Death on Sight Chapter 240 Only one Lives "Are you going to keep sending your men or are you going to take action on your own?" Zhihao voice echoes through the wide space of the road, Nandoi''s brows furrowed, as his countenance gradually turned ashen. The loftiness in Zhihao''s eyes was as though he was looking disdainfully down on an ant he could trample, the gaze of Zhihao pierced right into his heart. Thinking back to that time he shouts out with extreme arrogance in front of the shop, he had stood there looking down on anyone who owns it, but watching Zhihao''s kill his men without any of them noticing, Nandoi felt threatened. At that time, he thought that they were people from different worlds, he knew that as long as he willed it, he could reap away Zhihao''s life anytime. But even so, that young man whom he looked down upon earlier actually killed his men without any effort. The people had been gathered for quite some time now, and in front of the crowd, he was actually asked, if he''d keep sending his men in! Although he felt enraged, he''s also thinking deeply, if Zhihao can kill 10th stage Empowering Warriors like nothing, he must be a Celestiality Sovereign, a strong one at that. He himself is a Celestiality Sovereign, but he couldn''t even see his power and thought that Zhihao is a mortal. "I`ll give you ten breathes of time, if you don''t come over, I`ll slaughter all of your men to get to you." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Nandoi and his men shivered, if Zhihao had told them this before he killed his men, they would only laugh at it and treat it as a joke, but seeing the three corpses down on the ground, Even the Celestiality Sovereigns that had gone with him are trembling in fear, all of them thought that Zhihao is really a mortal. "Ten..." "Wait! Wait! We can talk about i-" "Nine..." "Please have mercy, If I die, my whole Clan, the Beautiful Sky City will surely chase aft-" "Eight..." "I`m the Crown Prince of the Empire! If you-" "Seven..." "Stop counting down!" "Five..." "Where is six!!!" "Four..." Nandoi looked at his subordinates, wanting to see if anyone has a plan, but seeing that all of them are sweating and trembling, clearly, nobody thought of any. "Three..." Although right now Nandoi''s cultivation base had already broken through to the 4th stage of Celestiality Sovereign level, when facing against Zhihao which is someone that not any of them could see the power of, Nandoi wasn''t really confident in confronting him. After all, Zhihao was someone who had killed three powerful men without any of them noticing. "Two..." Not him neither does any of the people on his group can actually do something like that, even the King, his Father who''s the strongest Sovereign, a 5th stage Celestiality Sovereign in the whole of the Beautiful Continent can''t do something like that. "Please, I beg your mercy." "One..." Hearing Zhihao''s countdown had reached the final digit, Nandoi scowled: "RETREAT!" Immediately, after hearing Nandoi''s order, two Celestiality Sovereigns descended to escort him back while the other two stood between him and Zhihao. "We''ll hold him back! Crown Prince! Run!" "Zero..." After finishing his count, Zhihao moved his feet one by one, closing the gap between them and him. All of them started to sweat, Nandoi froze on the spot as the two Sovereigns tried to move him. "Crown Prince! Let''s go!" Nandoi froze not because he''s couldn''t move, but instead, something bizarre is in front of him. Zhihao had unleashed all of his killing intent, solely focusing it at Nandoi, making him go in a craze, he became petrified as in front of him, an illusion of a demon God is walking closer and closer to him. The pressure that Zhihao is releasing and focusing only on him is too heavy for him to handle. "Kill him!" The two sovereigns on front commanded the empowering warriors, but none of them moved. Seeing this, the two sovereigns frowned, one of them added: "Even if all of you die, your Families will be well taken care of." All of them heard it as they gritted their teeth, prepared to charge forward, Zhihao frowned hearing this, he can feel the lies in the words that that person had told, clearly, he plans to eradicate all of their families after this issue is dealt with. In that sovereigns mind, hesitating only means one thing, and that is ''Death'', but he didn''t know something, that in Zhihao''s mind, he''s the first to go. Zhihao checked each and everyone''s reaction, he can identify those that are still good and those that are not. After a while, Zhihao was astounded, out of the 50 soldiers, 43 of them are good natured. Continuing his walk, all 50 of the soldiers rushed towards his as they powered up their weapons. "Haaa!" "Swoosh! Swoosh!" A piercing sound echoes continuously as each of them goes down one by one. And in just a few of time, all of the 10th stage Empowering Warriors fell down to the ground, some with blood gushing out of their bodies, while some were left unconscious. "Bunch of useless flies!" One of the Celestiality Sovereigns hovered in the sky as he gathered his power, the other one nodded as he also gathered some of his power to assist him. "BURN FOR ME!" "HMMP!" Two ferocious attacks aimed at Zhihao flew in a terrifying speed. But to Zhihao''s surprise, he felt no such thing as a threat coming from this skills. With a single wave from his sword, the flames immediately vanished into thin air. "This..." Seeing such a sight, the two Celestiality Sovereigns were shaken, they were proud of himself, as one of the few hundreds of people in the whole world that managed to become one, they took pride in it, but in front of Zhihao, it was like, he''s just playing with them. "RUN!" One of them immediately made a run for it, leaving the Crown Prince behind with the three Sovereigns. Seeing their two companions leaving, the other two couldn''t help but tremble. Seeing them, Zhihao kept checking their expression and heart. There are only two evil people that have a nasty black soul. "Swoosh!" Zhihao threw one of his sword aiming at the sovereign that''s escaping, it immediately pierced right through his body as the sovereign fell from the sky. The three sovereigns seeing this immediately tensed up as they guarded the Crown Prince. "Why do good people have to die for a stupid Master." Zhihao spoke, he had never stopped walking as he killed his way in, he retrieved his killing intent away from Nandoi. Nandoi immediately regained his consciousness as the illusion of the Demon God''s slaughter vanished, but what replaced it is almost the same, all of his men were down as Zhihao walks towards him. The three sovereigns started to sweat as Zhihao approached them, every step he took felt like their death is slowly approaching. Nandoi finally woke up as he exclaimed: "Stall him for me! I`ll get back up as soon as possible!" Hearing Nandoi''s word, the three sovereign''s faces darkened, the distance from the capital to here is about 1,000 miles away, before the back up arrives, they will be dead for days already. All of them had darkened faces as they nodded: "Yes, Crowned Prince!" Although they felt extremely enraged, they can only swallow their rage, at least their family would have a better life after their death. After hearing them, Nandoi flew up as he dashed towards the direction of the Empire. Zhihao sighed, until the very end, Nandoi is still as heartless, leaving the subordinates that protected him just to save himself. "Swosh!" Another sword flew out of Zhihao''s hand as it aimed perfectly at Nandoi''s heart. "Crowned Prince!" The three sovereigns yelled. "Pfft!" Nandoi spurt out a mouthful of blood as the sword pierced through from his back onto his chest, he immediately fell down from the sky lifelessly. Zhihao looked at the three sovereigns and spoke. "One of you dies, the other one lives, choose." Chapter 241 A Pleasant Glare "Only one of you shall leave alive!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the three sovereigns looked at each other. No matter what, no one from the three of them, even if they combined their strength can live this place alive. The two old men looked at the one on their left as they nodded at each other. "Paldran, since you are the youngest amongst the three of us, we''ll die here, just promise us to take care of our family for us." "But..." The man named Paldran tried to speak, but as soon as he did, he was pushed back by the other two as they smiled at him. The two celestiality sovereign pulled out a dagger as they spoke. "Lord, please keep your words." After speaking, the two Celestial Sovereigns directly tried to pierce the daggers at their heart. "Stop! I can''t accept this!" Paldran exclaimed as he tried to break the barriers they made. The two of them smiled and they nodded in satisfaction as the daggers immediately close to their hearts. "Swoosh!" A powerful howling wind sounded as a shadow passed by them in a rapid phase, they couldn''t even react. That shadow appeared behind Zhihao wielding two daggers, a beautiful maiden, Ying Mai. Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Okay, you passed my test, you can now choose." "One is to leave now and go back to your home, two is to go back to your Empire, and three, to pledge your allegiance to me." Hearing Zhihao''s words, their eyes gleamed, but just as fast as it goes it darkened, to be under a powerful person is a grace worth an Empire itself! but thinking about the families they have left behind, they couldn''t make any rash decision. Seeing the looks in their eyes, Zhihao couldn''t help but sigh, he''s not that ruthless to make people choose between him and their families. "Make your choice, and I can promise one thing, whatever you choose, there is no such thing as a repercussion." Hearing Zhihao''s words, all of their eyes shined expectantly, does that mean that their families will be safe?! "Master, please accept us under your wings!" The three kowtowed, Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Return to your Empire, fetch your Clan or Families back to this place." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they were quite shocked, they will just march there and get their clan? how is that possible? If they came back with their previous useless and shitty master dead, they''ll definitely be branded as traitors. Zhihao sighed, he looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "Ying Ma... Dear, would you mind escorting them back?" Hearing Zhihao''s word, Ying Mai blushes and nodded her head: "Yes dear..." After shyly speaking, she summoned her Celestial General''s arc. The people surrounding them, even the Sovereigns were shocked, they can even summon a sky city?! how great are their power?! Ying Mai flew to the sky as she spoke: "Follow me to my Arc, and lead me to your families and clans, if they wish to join you, they are free to come, if not, they are free to reject." The three people nodded their head and replied: "Yes, Mistress!" Hearing the word Mistress, Ying Mai blushes as she nodded: "Good, I`m starting to like you three!" That word made her feel extremely happy, the feeling of being called Zhihao''s wife is really great for her, especially after she waited years for it, she even fought for that ''Title'', hence, she immediately accepted the three people that had first called her that. All of them froze on the spot, you call something that big only as an Arc?! that''s almost as big as the Beautiful Continent''s Empire! Once the three of them boarded Ying Mai''s arc, she immediately asked. "Which direction?" "Mistress, once we move forward from that direction, there will be a floating empi... An arc that has the same size as Mistress''s Arc." One of the sovereigns spoke as he pointed in the direction. Ying Mai smiled as she nodded and patted his head: "Good boy, let''s go." A sovereign, getting patted in the head would result in rage, or some even became shamed, but being patted on the head by such a beauty, he felt extremely blessed. "Anything for the Mistress." Ying Mai nodded as she nodded, seeing this, the Sovereign thought of something. "Mistress..." Ying Mai nodded as she smiled in a blooming manner: "What is it?" "Ahh, Mistress, we might have a few problems after arriving." Ying Mai smiled as she replied: "Don''t worry about that." "Mistress." Ying Mai nodded as she smiled in a blooming manner yet again and asked: "What is it? ask away." "Both of you and Master are a match made in heaven! something that we thought the heaven itself made!" Hearing this, Ying Mai blushes as she nodded repeatedly, not bothering to answer, but extremely satisfied. A flood of ''praise'' kept being said as they flew higher on the sky. Ying Mai opened her eyes fully inspired as she spoke: "Okay now, let us go." "Eh? weren''t we moving fast? what do you mean Mistress?" Ying Mai looked at them and spoke: "That... we''re moving extremely slow, well, I`ll start now, hold on to something." ''Hold on to something?'' The three of them asked on their mind, but as soon as those thoughts were asked, Ying Mai flicks her finger. "Swoosh!" The Arc increased its phase as an incredible gust of winds kept assaulting the three sovereigns. In just about three minutes, they arrived at their destination. A floating land is floating in front of them, almost the has the same size of Ying Mai''s arc! "This..." The three sovereign spoke, they couldn''t move right now, due to the pressure, they slammed into one of the towers in Ying Mai''s Arc and embedded themselves there. Ying Mai looked at them and spoke: "Go and talk to your Family, I`ll wait for a day''s time, go on." "Yes, Mistress! Thank you for giving us a huge amount of time!" The three sovereigns kneeled as they flew up from the arc as they separated and went to their respective families. After just a while, a few silhouettes appeared, "Who goes there? might we know which power you came from?" The one leading them that looked like he''s in his 80s is hovering a few hundred meters away from Ying Mai''s arc. Ying Mai looked at him and glared: "You are not entitled to ask for any question!" After Ying Mai exclaimed, a powerful aura descended from the heavens itself, pressuring these few silhouettes, threatening to make them fall. "Tha... That..." All of them felt extremely powerless, in front of absolute power, even them, the Elites of the elites of the Sovereign in the Beautiful Sky Empire felt like an ant being glared at by a Goddess. Chapter 242 a All of them felt speechless, such overwhelming power coming out from the body of a young and gorgeous lady. The one that seemed to be the leader frowned and asked: "Has there been any misunderstanding between us?" Ying Mai''s expression didn''t change as she looked at the man and replied: "Tell your King, or whoever it is, that your Crown Prince, together with his escorts had either perished or had been taken under my Husband''s banner." Hearing her words, all of them started to sweat. They looked at each other and started to speak using their minds. ''Didn''t the Crown Prince brought 50% of the elites from our Beautiful Sky Empire''s army?'' Although all of them were bewildered, they are carrying a hint of malicious intent, glaring at Ying Mai as they probe her strength. "Look at me one more time, and I`ll immediately turn your whole flying Empire to ashes." Ying Mai glared at them as she spoke, immediately all of them retreated as they flew back slowly, averting their eyes from her glare. "I`ll leave a warning for today, if something of a similar even happens again, you can all forget the Beautiful Sky Empire''s existence." After speaking, Ying Mai waved her hands as she blew all of them back a few hundred meters back to their flying empire. All seven of them became shocked, all of them are Celestiality Sovereigns, but they have been casually pushed back hundreds of meters away with just a wave of her hands. All of them broke out to sweat as the one leading them spoke: "We''ll keep your words to our mind, something like that will definitely not happen again." After speaking, all of them flew back to the Flying Empire. They all trembled in fear, the strongest one in their whole Empire is a 4th stage Celestiality Sovereign, there used to be two, but since the Prince had died, there is only a single one left, their Emperor, the Crown Prince''s father. Ying Mai snorted as she spoke: "Well, I wouldn''t really mind destroying an Empire or two." Hearing her words, all of them rushed further, not bothering to look back again. ''We need to report this to the Emperor at once!'' All of them immediately rushed back. Seeing their figures vanishing out of her sight, Ying Mai sighed and flew to her own room. Going to the bed, a smile forms on her lips as she silently spoke: "Mistress... hehe... hehe..." The grin on her face couldn''t stop as she remembers their words, clearly feeling happy about it, satisfied to the extreme. . . ... "Patriarch!" A man that seemed to be on his forties had arrived and greeted. "Paldran! hahaha, the most powerful man in my Takuso Clan! what brings you home?" The man Paldran called Patriarch happily exclaimed. Paldran looked at the man and without hesitation, he asked: "Patriarch, I`ll ask you this, I''ve met someone... someone that I can finally work under with respect, and if Patriarch is willing, all of our Clan can go there immediately." "This... Then we''ll be branded as traitors by the Empire! Are you seeking for our Clan''s death?!" The patriarch spoke in a demeaning manner, if they really did go there, their entire Clan would be chased to the ends of the World by the Empire, Traitors of the Royalty. Paldran didn''t answer, he shook his head in disappointment. "Summon the elders, we''ll talk about it as a Clan, I`ll keep your words in my Mind Paldran, you are, after all, our pride." Paldran nodded as the attendant beside the Patriarch moved to call the elders. After just a few minutes, all of the elders had finally arrived. "Every, Paldran had something to say, I need everyone to listen to him." After the patriarch had spoken, all of the elders and their assistants focused their attention on Paldran. Paldran nodded as he spoke: "Elders, I only wish for one thing, and that is, for our Clan to have a proper lord, unlike the place that we currently serve under." Hearing his words, all of them frowned immediately as he looked at him. Paldran ignored their stares as he continued: "I''ve already made my choice, whether all of you will go with me or not, that will depend on all of you." Pausing for a bit, Paldran looked around and spoke: "The power I`ll be going under is someone that had already killed half of the military power of the Empire, I`ll take my Family with me, I will leave immediately if all of you had decided to stay." Hearing Paldran''s words, all of them were shocked, then does that mean that the Beautiful Sky Empire will go to war with that power. "All of those in favor of going with Paldran, lift your hands, if you agree, you can bring your families together with you." After the Patriarch''s word sounded, all of them looked at each other. A man lifted his hands in the air and spoke: "I`ll go with my apprentice, although he had already surpassed me, I trust his judgment." "Eldeweise, I guess, I`ll go too." After the elder named Eldeweise had spoken, two more people lifted their hands up. The Patriarch nodded his head as he spoke: "All of you can go now, bring your Families with you." After speaking, he sighed, out of the 25 elders he had by his side, three were gone together with their strongest warrior, Paldran. Paldran stood up as he looked at the patriarch as he spoke: "Patriarch, I''d like to give you one last warning, if there is a war that will happen in the future, try not to participate." After Paldran had spoken, he walks out to get his family members. The Patriarch looked at their departing figure and sighed: "Such a waste, with them leaving, we''ve lost at least 5% of our total power." After speaking, the patriarch waved his hands and spoke: "All of you may resume to your duties, pick for some candidates, we need to replace the three lost elders of our Clan." "Yes, Patriarch!" After everyone left, The Patriarch stood up as he spoke: "I wish I made the right choice." After speaking, The Patriarch walks about, trying to figure something out. Chapter 243 Donst Worry Meanwhile, in another location, one of the Celestial Sovereign, Quin Soaran is currently in the main hall of the Quin Clan. "Patriarch, what say you?" Soaran asked as he looked at the face of his patriarch. The Patriarch sighed as he looked back at Soaran and spoke: "You are our strongest warrior, the Pride of our Quin Clan, if you think that where we will go is a much better place, I shall accept." All of the elders surrounding them nodded, one of the elders sitting close to the Patriarch added. "It is good, it is better than being under the fake royalty." Everyone nodded hearing his statement, the Quin Clan had been loyal to the previous Royal line, but due to the chaos, they could not prevent the coup from happening. Out of the 18 supreme clans, only five tried to help, sadly, with the power of numbers, they were brushed off like nothing. Hearing this, Soaran smiled as he spoke: "Thank you for the support, Supreme Elder." The elder that had spoken is the previous patriarch, also the father of the current head. The Supreme Elder nodded as he spoke: "Tell everyone to pack up their belongings, we''ll immediately depart!" The supreme elder paused for a bit as he looked at everyone and continued: "It will be a perilous journey, we will definitely be hunted by the fake royalty and clans of the Empire, be prepared." Soaran opened his eyes widely and spoke: "Supreme Elder, there is one thing that I had forgotten to tell." All of them looked at Soaran as the Patriarch asked: "What is it?" "The wife of the Master we will go under has personally escorted us here, she''ll bring us all back to her Husband''s place." Soaran explained as a bright light showed in his eyes. "This... then we will be alright, how many Celestiality Sovereign has she brought over?" The Patriarch asked in excitement. When Soaran heard this, he was astounded, he then spoke: "She''s the only one that arrived..." "What!?" The Supreme Elder shouted as shock flooded his heart, he then continued. "Then how is she going to escort us all back?" Soaran pondered for a bit, but after thinking for a while, he could not think of any answer and just spoke. "Well, you all will see it once we arrive there." Soaran sighed as he stood up. All of them looked at the back of Soaran as they became bewildered. "Oh, and my Master''s wife really likes it whenever someone calls her Mistress, or maybe, we can also call her Madame, that way, her view on our clan would definitely be favorable." Hearing Soaran''s following word caused them to almost fall down from their chair. But seeing Soaran''s dead serious expression, all of them could only sigh, what kind of power are they going into? . . ... Somewhere, one of the three Celestiality Sovereign, Drakz Lourde''s clan, Drakz Clan. "Patriarch, what do you think?" The patriarch looked at Lourde as he asked: "Can the other clans also join?" Hearing this, Lourde was shocked, yeah, there are also powers that wish to rebel against the royal throne. Lourde looked at the elders and patriarch as he spoke: "Patriarch, let me ask first." The patriarch nodded as he waved his hands: "Okay, but be discreet about it." The patriarch warned, they are being cautioned, if they really wish to go, other clans and even the royal army will chase them immediately. The more that comes with them, the safer their journey will be. "Yes, I will!" Lourde replied as he soared and flew out of the grand hall. The patriarch looked at the elders and asked: "What do all of you think?" The elders nodded immediately as one of them spoke: "Patriarch, we had been hiding for the past years, enduring the pressure from the royal clan, they are too ruthless." Another one then added: "Hmmp! They aren''t even the real royalties, but the way they act is too tyrannical, I''d rather fight to the death with them rather than succumb to their ploys." Everyone nodded and approved of that elder''s words, but one of them is secretly frowning as he looked at the others. Immediately, he stood up and spoke: "Patriarch, why not let all of our clan members prepare for departure?" The Patriarch looked at the man and replied: "Good idea Elder Han." He looked at the rest and spoke: "Immediately announce to the Clan members, we will be departing today." "Yes!" All the elders stood up as they replied as they walk out of the grand hall to announce the order. The Patriarch look at one of the elders and spoke: "Elder Han, you are the oldest and most experienced of us all, I wish that you can still continue and teach members of our clan until we perish." Hearing the patriarch''s word, Elder Han looked at him with a smile and replied: "Worry not patriarch, so long as this old bones are in the Clan, I will continue to guide the younglings." The Patriarch smiles and nodded at him: "Thank you, Elder Han." Elder Han nodded as he replied: "My pleasure Patriarch." After a few minutes, Lourde came back as he spoke: "Patriarch." The Patriarch nodded his head and asked: "What''s the reply?" Lourde felt shaken as he remembered Ying Mai''s word, he looked at the Patriarch again and replied. "Patriarch, this... the Madame has instructed us, that we can take our time, and we can bring as many as we can, so long as they are people with good intentions." The Patriarch smiled, seems like this new power can really be overbearing, they are in the territory of the Beautiful Sky Empire, but, this power is telling them to take their time, he couldn''t help but wonder. ''How many Celestial Sovereigns had they bought to assist us and return?'' Lourde then shivered as he added: "Patriarch, the Madame also said that... we don''t secretly go to her tomorrow, we can just brazenly move out of the clan..." The Patriarch opened up his eyes and asked: "What if Beautiful Sky Empire knew of this?! They''ll definitely pursue and kill us!" Lourde nodded as he replied: "Patriarch, I also asked the Madame the same question, but she only replied with two words." The Patriarch opened his eyes, two words? ''To War?'', he then looked at Lourde again, seeing him shivering, his guess must be real, he then asked: "Which two words?" "Don''t Worry..." Lourde replied, still shivering at the two words that Ying Mai had spoken to him. Hearing this, The patriarch also shivered, don''t worry? they are on the territory of their enemies! what is there not to worry about!? The Patriarch then looked at Lourde and asked: "Can we really trust them?" Lourde''s shivering stopped, casually remembering Zhihao, his eyes blazed with fiery brightness as he looked at his Patriarch and replied. "Yes, so long as it is them, we have no need to worry at all." Seeing Lourde''s serious tone, the Patriarch could only sigh and nodded. "We will see tomorrow." Chapter 244 Almighty and Powerful Sl... The Beautiful Continent''s Capital. The Beautiful Sky Empire. A floating mass of land is together with it, two colossal cities glaring at one another, each one has its resplendence. Inside the Beautiful Sky Empire, a few elders had been waiting for someone. There are 13 elders currently sitting in the grand hall. "This is a great catastrophe." One of them spoke, another one then followed. "Yes, but what''s taking his Majesty too long, we''ve been waiting for him for almost a day." "On a day like this where our Empire is facing a calamity, his Majesty is actually just doing whatever he wants." Clearly, all of them felt extremely irritated at this so-called ''Emperor'', someone that stood at the peak of their empire is actually being lazy. Then, just when they finished speaking, someone from the back of the door appeared. Walking gallantly and exuding tremendous aura. "Your Majesty!" All of the elders immediately kneeled and greeted. That man waved his hand and spoke: "Keep kneeling." All of the elders frowned, the man then continued. "What''s the reason that you bothered my leisure?" After the man spoke, three silhouettes walk out of the same door that the Emperor had appeared out of. The Emperor looked at the three and spoke: "We''ll continue our entertainment later, hahaha." Hearing this, all three of them shivered, they had been forced into the Emperor''s castle, at first, they thought that it is a blessing, but just the first experience made them know reality. They became slaves for the Emperor''s pleasure. One of the elders sighed as he retold the story to the Emperor. The Emperor had a smile at first, but slowly, his face started to change, the armrest of his throne started to crack as his hold started to become tighter. "And..." "And?"The Emperor glared at the Elder, waiting for his continuation. "And the crowned Prince is dead..." "Crrrk! Booom!" The armrest broke apart as it exploded to pieces, the metals immediately shattered throughout the grand hall, hitting the elders. "Yaaa!" Two of the females immediately died as the last one were seriously injured. "Bring me to them!" The Emperor stood up from his throne, every step he took shook the throne room. "Yes, your Majesty!" All of the elders replied as they led the way while removing the metals embedded inside their bodies. . . ... Waiting for almost a whole day, Ying Mai moved out of her battle arc. Immediately, silhouettes of thousands of people are marching towards her direction. "Ah, they are here." Ying Mai spoke and after, five silhouettes flew to her direction from those group of people. "Madame!" The three Celestiality Sovereigns bowed and greeted. The other two also bowed as they spoke. "Miss." They called Ying Mai miss since they are not part of her power yet, but as a soon to be part of her power, they respectfully bowed and greeted. Seeing the great floating land in front of them, all of the people were shocked, they are seeing two of them above the sky. They couldn''t help but think: ''The power we are joining has their own flying empire!'' Clearly, it became their insurance. Ying Mai nodded and spoke: "Get your people on my Battle Arc." The five Celestiality Sovereign nodded their head and replied: "Yes, Madame/Miss." The five of them is thinking though, how will they bring their people in the flying land. But just as their question were ask in their mind, Ying Mai waved her hand as a light forms on her battle arc, immediately, on both of its side, the light shot down to the ground as it started to transform into stairs. All of the people on the ground opened their eyes wide in shock. "This..." All of them couldn''t believe what had happened, it is like a heavenly stair, something they only heard and saw from the books. "Okay, everyone, start climbing up the stairs." All of the celestiality sovereigns spoke as they guide their Clan''s up. "Yes!" All of the clan members immediately replied in excitement, they thought that the idea of setting foot on a floating Empire is only for the heavenly blessed, the Celestiality Sovereigns and the top of the Empowering Warriors. The stairs were like made of delicate glasses, but as soon as they stepped on it, the hardness and sturdiness of it made them confident in walking there. An hour has passed, and almost half of the Clan''s had already managed to get up, but after a while, a silhouette followed by a few Celestiality Sovereigns are coming to their location. "The Audacity!" The one leading them spoke, a thunderous and supreme voice sounded, immediately giving pressure to the ones below. Ying Mai looked at the silhouette and only snorted, the other Celestiality Sovereigns shivered. "He broke through to the 5th stage of Celestiality!" The power that the Emperor is releasing immediately suppressed all of them, they immediately shivered. Hearing their Celestiality Sovereign clan members spoke, all of them shivered, the ordinary people in the clan started to panic. "We''re going to die..." "We are too rash..." All of them started to weaken as they sat on the ground looking at the Emperor''s silhouette. "Traitors of the Empire, your head will be displayed for a whole year! your clans'' elders will be murdered! your men will be slaves, and your women shall be sold!" The Emperor spoke like his word is the only rule and authority. "I am the Law of this Continent! Trando Aqrano! who dares contends with my Supremacy!" The Emperor looked at Ying Mai''s battle arch as he snorted. "Come out now! How dare you defy my authority!" Ying Mai sighed, she had grown tired of hearing the annoying noise, she immediately flew upward as looked at the Emperor with a gaze as cold as ice. Seeing Ying Mai, the Emperor was shocked, an idea appeared in his head as he spoke: "Hmmp! Just a little lady, since I`m a magnanimous Emperor, I can pardon your rudeness! I''ll let those traitors go so long as you warm my bed tonight." Ying Mai didn''t reply, she still stared at him coldly, couldn''t even care about such a puny existence. "Hahahaha." A laughter sounded again coming from the Emperor as he continued. "I might have displayed too much power and authority, forgive this Emperor." A look of Maliciousness immediately appeared in the Emperor''s eyes as he stared at Ying Mai''s curves. Seeing this, Ying Mai frowned as she spoke. "Ony my Husband can look at me with those eyes." The Emperor frowned, he looked at Ying Mai as he licked his lips and spoke: "I guess you are not a maiden anymore, just a sl*t then, but that is fine, I can still do it with such a gorgeous and fair lady like you." Ying Mai finally had it as she lifts her hands. Immediately, a powerful surge of power appeared from the sky, all of the people, mortals or immortals both exhaled in shock with their mouths wide open, they couldn''t believe it. The suppression that the Emperor is giving them immediately vanished, it was replaced by Ying Mai''s overwhelming power. A figure of a giant arm manifested into the sky as it moved down from the Emperor''s left and directly at him. "THIS!" The Emperor was shocked, he immediately gathered all of his power to block it. The hand then slowly decreases its size to that of the same as Ying Mai. "PAK!" A crisp yet melodious sound echoes as Ying Mai''s manifested hands collided with the Emperor. "Swoosh! Bam!" All of them looked at the event with wide eyes opened in shock. "The Emperor..." They couldn''t even finish their words. The Emperor was slapped and was immediately thrown back to his empire, embedding his body on the walls and slumped down unconsciously. Ying Mai looked at the elders are her cold voice sounded. "I''ll make it as the last warning, one more time and your floating boat will be destroyed, vanishing through the annals of history!" ''Powerful!'' The only description they can think of from what Ying Mai had done. A 5th stage Celestiality was actually slammed unconscious with no effort at all! They looked at Ying Mai as they all thought in their hearts. Almighty and Powerful Slap! Chapter 245 Princess An Emperor of a continent, the almighty existence in the eyes of all mortals is currently embedded into his own walls unconscious by a single swing of a woman''s hand. Seeing such a sight, all of them, even the Celestiality Sovereigns where shock beyond belief. The Emperor was exuding force and pressure a moment ago, trampling the pride of everyone in his sight, but just a single second, a single second is all it took, his majestic display vanished replaced by an awkward atmosphere. "Hmmp!" A snort sounded from Ying Mai. The elders were about to look back, but remembering what Ying Mai had said before, all of them retreated to assist their Emperor, not even thinking of even taking revenge. Ying Mai looked at Paldran and the rest as she spoke: "Continue." "Yes, Madame/Miss!" All of the five replied as they started to guide their clan members, making them continue all climbing the stairs. After a few whiles, all of the Clan members had boarded Ying Mai''s battle arc. Ying Mai looked at all of them scanning for anyone that''s left behind, she then looked at Paldran and asked: "Where is the rest of your Clan members?" Paldran hearing her question smiled sadly as he replied: "Replying to Mistress, my Clan had decided to stay within this place." Ying Mai nodded as she waved her hands. "Let''s go." Her battle arch immediately soared back to the direction of the Bhie City, but this time, Ying Mai didn''t increase her speed and continue with the normal phase. All of the people felt shocked, they still grabbed into whatever they can find just to not fall from Ying Mai''s battle arc. Ying Mai wanted to announce that they wouldn''t fall no matter what, but with the number of people riding her battle arc, they''ll squeeze each other on the end. After a while, the battle arc finally arrived at the Bhie City. Ying Mai waved her hands again as the same light descended from her battle arc towards the ground, and with another wave of her hands, soft multiple layers of light formed below the light path. The once stairs turned into a kiddy slide. Ying Mai then spoke: "All of you can just slide down, it will be faster." All of the mortals looked at Ying Mai with gratitude as they spoke. "Madame! Thank you for the magnanimity!" All of them respectfully said. Hearing the word madame spoken by hundreds of thousands of people, Ying Mai couldn''t help but blush, she nodded and spoke: "Go on now, take care of yourselves." "Yes, Madame!" Hearing all of them calling her Madame, Ying Mai blushes, with closed eyes, she nodded and flew out of the Arc heading towards the Shop. "Maste... Dear... They are here now." Zhihao nodded as he walks out of the shop and looked at the people having fun sliding from the 2-kilometer height slide. "This..." Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he continued. "Did you just made an amusement park?" Ying Mai tilted her head and asked: "Amusement park?" Zhihao chuckles as he spoke: "Nevermind, hmmm, what shall we do with them? I didn''t think that they''ll bring so many of their members." Ying Mai pondered for a while before replying: "Mas... Dear, how about, making all of them go under your wing?" "How about you start and make a powerful nation instead?" A red bird came in from the window and spoke. "Riku, what do you mean?" Zhihao looked at Riku as he asked since he couldn''t make the power of this realm his own, how could he, a stranger, rule a country? Riku chuckles as she spoke: "Don''t worry about it, the wheels of destiny shall move on its own, you just have to think of how to build a great one for now." After speaking, Riku winked at Ying Mai as she flew out again. Ying Mai immediately blushes, she clearly knows what Riku is hinting on. Zhihao sighed, he then looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "Let us go and welcome them then." Ying Mai nodded as she followed behind Zhihao as he leads the way out. "Big Brother! where are you going?" The one that spoke is Blythe, she''s together with Ollie. Zhihao smiled at them, he then replied: "Come with me, I`ll introduce you to some people." Blythe nodded, she then dragged Ollie to go with them. After a while, the group of people managed to come down, fixing their own attires. The moment they saw Ying Mai following someone, they immediately understood that the man is the lord. All of were lead by the five sovereigns as they bowed and greeted: "Lord!" Zhihao smiled as he waved his hand and spoke: "Rise." All of them stood up straight as they looked at Zhihao, waiting for him to speak. "All of you coming here only means one thing, you people will be coming under my rule." Zhihao estated. Everyone nodded their head in understanding. "But the one that will be leading you is not me, but this woman." Zhihao smiled at them as he spoke. Everyone was astounded, but as soon as they saw the silhouette of that woman, all of their visions turned blurry, some even had tears on their eyes. "Princess Blythe!" Immediately, all of them kneeled to the ground, those that did not know her also followed. Zhihao was amused, so Blythe is the real royal clan of the Beautiful Continent, one more reason for him to establish his own power here, he then can leave it for Blythe to handle. Zhihao looked at Blythe who is currently frozen, he has no idea of who these people are, but to their tone, they felt extremely familiar. Ollie looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Master, our Young Miss is a descendant of the Emperor of the Beautiful Sky Empire, but her father died when she was only 8 years old, after that..." Zhihao waved his hand, he can already figure out what happened next. Zhihao smiled at Blythe and spoke: "Little Lass, when are you going to make them stand up?" Blythe woke up from her daze as she ordered: "All of you, please stand up!" "Yes!" All of them replied, the once lost dignity within them suddenly resurged with fiery flames. They thought that Blythe had been killed, the Royal Clan prevented them from knowing any information about her, Blythe was banished to some far away place by the Emperor for an unknown reason, and only Celestiality Sovereigns were informed about it. But with the threat of Clan Obliteration, they couldn''t even leak anything regarding her. "Princess..." "The Princess is still alive..." All of the Clan members that knew of the history immediately wept tears of happiness. The Celestial Sovereigns sighed, at the very least, they can continue serving the real royal clan again. Chapter 246 New Land A few years back, the Beautiful Continent, although is one of the weakest continents there is, but the Emperor, Dawn Cantar soared unhindered by others, but then, one day, the people from the Uglies continent, also labeled as ''Savages'' by others started to cause trouble, bringing chaos to the Borders of the Beautiful Continent, Graceful Continent, and Gorgeous Continent. The Uglies Continent started to plunder their way in, that year, their generation had produced four 5th stage Celestiality Sovereigns, their Emperor is one of them, but he is the strongest, hence, he sent the other four to cause massacres from the three continents surrounding their borders. They had abducted maidens on each country, gathering them on cages before returning back to their continent, while the males were either killed or turned into slaves. The monarch of each Continents gathered together, there are only three 5th-stage Celestiality sovereigns on their side, which is them themselves. The Beautiful Continent''s Monarch, Dawn Cantar. The Graceful Continent''s Monarch, Landaris Dyusoks And the Gorgeous Continent''s Monarch, Fenriana Lakambin Three 5th stage Celestiality Warriors met each other as they planned on what to do, if this continued, their continent will suffer great losses. It will be a four versus three match, although they are slightly stronger, an addition of another 5th stage Celestiality Sovereign will tilt the balance and obliterate them. Then, one of the three suggested, Dawn Cantar, he is the strongest amongst the three of them. "I`ll take the three of them alone, the both of you will kill them one by one." Fenriana of the Gorgeous Continent was about to speak, but Dawn Cantar added: "If we do not do this, we''ll definitely be in a big disadvantage, just make sure to deal with them faster." Both Celestiality Sovereigns could do nothing but nod. The battle took place, Dawn Cantar held the enemies back as the other two kill their enemies, one by one, but when there are two left, both of the Celestial Sovereigns of the Uglies Continent made a full force attack on Dawn Cantar. With his exhausted power, Dawn Cantar fell from the battle and died, Fenriana and Landaris pursued the other two, but they still manage to escape. Both Celestiality Sovereign obliterated the Uglies armies to vent their anger and after that, returned the corpse of Dawn Cantar to the Beautiful Continent. The funeral lasted for a whole month, and as soon as the two sovereigns left, a coup d''etat occurred, Blythe''s mother, Truena Cantar died trying to defend Blythe from the slaughter. The Aqrano Clan, the 2nd most powerful clan ascended to the throne, overthrowing the Cantars, vanishing the Princess secretly with her subordinates. Zhihao smiled, he then looked at the shop and pondered for a little bit. The citizens are all in an uproar, they thought that everyone in the World already knows of Blythe''s misfortune, but thinking at this, the Clans loyal to the Cantar Royal Family were kept in the dark, they started to chat amongst themselves. Hearing this, Zhihao sighed, he looked at Ying Mai and asked: "Did you kill them?" Ying Mai shook her head and replied: "I have not, should I dear?" Zhihao shook his head, he then looked at Blythe and spoke: "I`ll leave your revenge to your own hands, okay?" Blythe is currently in tears, the only memory she had is when her royal Father left to some far away place, her mother sealed her to a room for a whole month, and after that, some people started to kill each other, but hearing the real story behind it, she couldn''t help but cry. Blythe looked at Zhihao and spoke: "Brother, I''ll have my revenge on my own!" Zhihao nodded and spoke: "Yes, I know you will." After Zhihao spoke, Zhihao patted Blythe''s head and pondered. Zhihao then thought of an incredible idea to start everything, he then contacted Riku. ''I need a free space where no power is occupying.'' Immediately, Riku replied: ''Just wave your hand.'' Zhihao nodded, although he''s still wondering why, he still did it. Zhihao waved his hand as a hundred or so dimensional scars appeared out of nowhere. "Dimensional Scar!" The Celestial Sovereigns and the mortals clearly had heard of it before, ancient gods of their World had been doing such things before, but that art vanished together with the extinction of the last Celestial God millions of years ago. "All of you can enter now, we''ll make our own country." "Yes!" Everyone understood what Zhihao''s intent is, he doesn''t want to go into war, instead, he''d like to make a new one, they immediately moved towards the dimensional scar. Zhihao then asked Riku again: ''What''s next?'' Riku chuckles as she spoke: ''Well, just establish your own Kingdom, I`ll do something and follow you in just a few minutes.'' Zhihao nodded, he then looked at Blythe and spoke: "Gather your subordinates and follow us." He then added before he entered the Dimensional Scar with Ying Mai: "The revenge you seek shall be made by the loyal people with you." Zhihao missed his sisters back on Earth, so he''s taking care of Blythe as such, treating her like a real Sister. Blythe nodded as she rushes back to the shop and assembled everyone, packing everything, even the Cultimana Plaque. Riku then sent him a message again: ''Your power had already reached God stage lower tier, so long as you manage to cultivate your way to the middle stage, you can also create your own personal Dimensional Scar, going to any planet you please.'' Hearing Riku''s words, Zhihao was shocked, he can go on to any world so long as he manages to become a middle staged God stage expert? a single step away! Riku then chuckles as she added: ''Although it sounds easy, I need to warn you, do not rush it, even the gods in the God Realm takes at least hundreds of thousands of years to ascend from lower stage to middle stage.'' Zhihao was shocked yet again, that''s an extremely long time. Riku continued: "God tiers are different from the lower tiers, each God stage is divided into ten different stages, and each one, The lowest time actually belonged to Arthariaz, our first Young Master, from God Realm lower stage 1st level to 2nd level took him a thousand year." Hearing this, Zhihao finally understood the gist of it, such difficulty, but what''s the benefits? Somewhat sensing Zhihao''s question spoke: "Each level double or sometimes even triples the person''s power depending on his comprehension." Zhihao nodded, he looked at Riku and bowed: "Thank you so much." Riku snorted as she flew out of the dimensional scar and landed on Ying Mai''s shoulder. Zhihao smiled as he walks further, then he stopped his steps as he looked at the people in front of him, their eyes are wide open as their shivered from terror. Zhihao followed the direction they are looking at and saw something incredible. A Dragon is glaring at them, a size as big as a mountain and as long as a great river is floating above them, with a tenne[1] floating around it. Zhihao looked at Riku as she spoke: ''1st stage Celestiality Sovereign Mountain Dragon.'' 1st stage?! Zhihao couldn''t believe it, why is there such a huge difference between the humans and monsters in this realm? . . ... [1]TENNE. (7th & 8th Centuries) Preliminary Findings. Scarves of gauze, or ribbon-like strips of narrow and ornamental cloth, found frequently on images of the Tennin Basically, Tenne is a ribbon or scarf like thingy that you can see from ancient images of Chinese Gods and Goddess (Some) Source: http://www.onmarkproductions.com/html/drapery-robes-japan-buddha-statues.html Chapter 247 Dominance Zhihao is looking at a huge Dragon floating in the sky, glaring at them like looking at thousands of prey. As soon as they arrived at their new found land, they were welcomed by an overwhelmingly powerful dragon. ''Riku, are you sure that that dragon is only at 1st stage Celestiality Sovereignty realm?'' Riku smiled as she nodded and replied: ''That is, in term, what you can call, a genuine Celestiality Realm power, the ones that you are seeing in this realm has been the ones that had lost the art of cultivating to the true Celestiality Sovereign realm, hence, they can only use 1/10th of the realm''s real power.'' Zhihao nodded in understanding, it seemed that the power of Riku''s world has a serious deterioration. "Lord! Return first! We''ll delay this Dragon!" Paldran spoke, clearly, they can feel the domineering power that the Dragon has, the pressure it is emitting is enough to kill mortals, even them as 3rd stage of Celestiality Sovereigns are feeling suppressed. Immediately, he directed his power and made a barrier, surrounding every citizen. The other four looked at each other and nodded, the four of them soared into the sky to clash wanting to at least delay the Dragon until everyone can escape. Paldran and the others are all in the 3rd stage Celestiality Sovereign, Zhihao was about to stop them, but he wanted to measure the Dragon''s powers first, he wanted to see the difference between the rushed Celestial Sovereignty and a genuine one. "ROAR!" Seeing the five soaring human in front of him, the Dragon became infuriated, releasing a massive shock wave to the surrounding. lower tier monsters immediate evacuated the area, Paldran''s barrier shook as cracks appeared at all of its sides. Paldran looked at the other four and spoke: "Let us surround them as they escape!" All of them nodded, immediately gathering the powers within their hands, preparing to clash with it as soon the Dragon make its move. "Human, It has been so long since I''ve tasted one..." The Dragon spoke, like all of them had been judge as its food. Paldran then replied: "We are not a food, senior, we will immediately leave your land, we beg you for mercy in trespassing your domain." "Hahaha, you have already come, why not stay here, forever." The Dragon spoke, not even giving anyone a chance for survival with its tone. Paldran and the other four looked at each other, it seems that this will be their end, but so long as they stall for a few minutes, their clan would already have evacuated. The Dragon then spoke again as it snorted: "How about the five of you leave, as a thanks for bringing me thousands of prey, I will spare your lives." Hearing this, Paldran and the other four couldn''t help but became enrage. "Our Clan members are not food!" After shouting, one of them shot a fire type magic. The Dragon ignored it, the fire made its way towards his body. "Booom!" But after the smoke vanishes, the Dragon smirks, there is not even a single scratch on its scale. "That tickles." All of the five felt fear, their attack couldn''t even deal a minimum damage to the Dragon, not even making it blink its eyes. "Everyone RUN!!" Paldran shouted, directing his voice to the people below. Hearing his word, everyone woke up from their daze as they immediately rush back to the Dimensional Scar, as they shouted at the ones still going out of it to return. "Go back!" "Go back everyone!" "Not so fast..." The dragon casually tipped its tail, immediately, the path to the Dimensional Scar were blocked by a massive wall made of soil. The Dragon looked at the five men flying in front of him as he spoke: "Audicious, you dare order my food to run?" Paldran was shook, they, couldn''t even do a single thing, they are also imagining that Ying Mai and Zhihao would not be able to deal anything to it. "This-" Everyone was speechless, their path to going back was blocked just like that. "ROAAAAAR!" The Dragon roared as light flickered surrounding its whole body. "Human, I will seal your lives first!" As the Dragon shouted, the light exploded as it surrounded the Paldran and the other four. "Graaa!" Everyone of them shouted as they vomit a mouthful of blood. "What is this!" Paldran then exclaimed, the light is growing smaller and smaller, squeezing them tighter and tighter. The five sovereigns started to bleed from all orifices. "Hahahaha, after hundred of years, I finally manage to eat another human!" The Dragon shouted with voice filled with joy. But then, someone suddenly spoke. "Isn''t that enough?" The Dragon looked at the location where it came from as a glare formed in its eyes. "How dare you ruin my leisure! do you want to die first?!" The Dragon shouted full of fury. The one that spoke is none other than Zhihao, his expression is still steady, like a child without any problems, he then continued. "The ones you are trying to eat are people under my command, hence, if you continue trampling them, I`ll become mad." The Dragon frowned, for someone that has no powerful energy surrounding him, he talks a loud of bull is what the dragon thought. "Hmmp! A mere mortal wants to contend against these seat!?" The Dragon exclaimed as he added. "How dare you, I will kill you first!" "ROAAAAR!" The Dragon soared through the sky as it prepared to descend, killing Zhihao in a brutal way. But out of nowhere, the Dragon stopped descending as it started to shudder, the once closed eyes of Zhihao opened, a sharp glare full of intent killing intent and murdurous aura completely suppressed him, unable to move any more. "Wha-" The Dragon was about to speak, but before he could, Zhihao spoke. "I`ll give you two choices." The once smiling face of Zhihao has vanished as it was replaced by a serious expression. Based on what Riku had said before, a genuine Celestiality Sovereign at the first stage has the strength on par with a Divine Realm at the lower stage, while the 10th stage of Celestiality Sovereignty is on par with a lower stage of God expert. Although Zhihao''s spiritual powers were sealed, but just with his physique, he already has enough power on par with a Demi-God realm middle stage expert. The Dragon gathered his power is it sunk in within its body, he also released the five Celestiality Sovereignty, the Dragon then slowly descended from the sky as it bowed towards Zhihao and asked. "This great and magnanimous human, I would like to pick one of those choices." The once domineering Dragon turned into a tamed pet in just an instant! Everyone looked at Zhihao in shock, what they thought is an extremely powerful being is actually powerless against their new lord! A silhouette then circled at the rock walls and appeared. "Big Brother!" It was Blythe, she exclaimed in shock, she thought that the dragon is about to eat Zhihao whole. Zhihao smiled as he wave his hand: "Come here, I need you to do something." Although still feeling extremely fearful of the dragon, Blythe nodded as she ran towards Zhihao. "Big Brother..." Zhihao smiled as he spoke: "I need you to chose, this dragon tried to eat everyone here, do you want him to die or live?" Hearing this, the Dragon opened his eyes widely as he panicked. "Young Miss! let me live please! I will serve and protect your clan for as long as I live!" Blythe was shocked, a Dragon is willing to protect them so long as she says he will live? Blythe looked at Zhihao in shock. "Well? do you want him to live or to die?" Blythe looked at the surrounding, there are no blood anywhere, she then asked: "Big Brother, had someone died?" Zhihao shook his head and replied: "No one died, just a few bruise." Blythe looked at the Dragon as she pondered. Riku then sent a message to Zhihao, after that, Zhihao immediately smiled as he nodded. "Miss! Please spare me!" The Dragon pleaded, begging for mercy. Blythe nodded and spoke: "Okay, please protect us." "Thank you Young Miss!" The Dragon bowed as tears started to roll down from its eyes. Zhihao looked at the Dragon and spoke: "Good, now you can live so long as you vow to the Phoenix Goddess that you will be the mount of Blythe for as long as the both of you live, protecting the ones she holds dear in her heart." Zhihao casually spoke, but the dragon opened its eyes widely. "You even know the Heavenly Phoenix Goddess'' oath!?" Chapter 248 Forming a Bond "You even know the Heavenly Phoenix Goddess'' oath!?" The mountain dragon became extremely shocked, but he calmed down, there is a process with this oath, if Zhihao doesn''t know about it, he has nothing to fear. Zhihao smiled at the Mountain Dragon, immediately sending shivers to his kilometer long body. "Of course, I pledge my loyalty to the Young Princess until the end of my life!" The mountain dragon smiled as he looked at Zhihao, waiting for his response. Ten breaths had passed, Zhihao opened his eyes as he looked at the dragon and asked; "When will you open your astral soul?" Hearing Zhihao''s word, the dragon shuddered: ''He even knows that?!'' The Dragon looked at Zhihao as he spoke: "I- I will, I was just waiting for your words." Zhihao nodded as he spoke: "Then, go on." The Dragon sighed, he then nodded his head as he bowed towards Blythe, a type of seal formed in his head with the silhouette of a dragon in the middle. The dragon didn''t tell them what to do, in case Zhihao did not know what is next, but his hopes shattered at Zhihao''s following words. "Blythe, drop a blood infused with your power into that seal." The dragon couldn''t help but have tears in his eyes: ''He really knows everything.'' "Un!" Blythe responded as she took out her dagger as she jumped at the humongous head of the dragon, she then pokes her finger, a drop of blood fell to the seal. Naturally, Zhihao knows nothing of everything, Riku had told her of it through mental communication. Once the drop of blood entered the Dragon''s seal, the seal glowed extremely shiny as the Dragon''s body shrunk to a quarter of its original size. Zhihao looked at Blythe as he spoke: "Give him a name." Blythe nodded as she pondered for a bit, then after a few breaths, she spoke: "I will call you Baobao!" Hearing this, the dragon wept tears of sadness inside his heart. "Baobao greets Master." Never the less, the dragon bowed his head as he greeted Blythe full of respect. Zhihao nodded, he then ordered: "Baobao, go and uproot all the trees out of that mountain a kilometer ahead!" Baobao looked at the distance, that is the biggest mountain in this region, it looked like the ocean''s wave, the top part has a flat area of about two kilometers with the end as a cliff, the body of it is a natural fortress, layers of flat ground can be seen in its body from the highest to the middle. "Yes, Master." Baobao flew to the sky as he used his tail to uproot the trees, he even removed the large rocks and placed everything on the mountain''s foot. After just an hour, Baobao finished his job and returned to Zhihao''s side and at the same time, the people had finished moving to this side of the world too. Blythe then looked at Baobao as she spoke: "Big Brother, can I take Baobao out for a fly?" Blythe''s eyes glowed, extremely excited, she had always wanted to fly like those Celestiality Sovereigns, it is one of her dreams. Naturally, without any hesitation, Zhihao nodded: "Of course, enjoy your time." Blythe ran to Zhihao as she hugged him: "Thank you Big Brother!" After speaking, she returned to Baobao and rode on the back of his head. "Young Miss, please hold on." Baobao cautioned. "Un! Let us go!" Blythe spoke, immediately, Baobao soared to the sky slowly as he moved to whichever direction Blythe pointed at. Baobao then commented: "Young Miss, please tell me if you want to increase the speed." The two vanished out of sight, Zhihao looked at everyone as he spoke. "Everyone, that mountain will be our territory, we''ll start to rebuild everything, first is everyone''s lodges, the last would be the castle, women, children, and the unable elders can rest, only help in preparing the food for everyone." "Yes, Lord!" Everyone replied as they started to move towards that mountain. A few demonic beasts were on the path, Zhihao and the others immediately killed them, becoming food for later. Zhihao looked around, he can sense that there is 12 Celestiality Sovereigns in this group and more than 20,000 Empowering Warriors from 1st to 10th stage, clearly, this will be a great start for them. After a while, a quarter of the housings had been finished quickly, well, with a total of 2,000,000 population, it would definitely be weird if they have not. Zhihao looked at Riku as he asked: "How many days until we return to the Fantasy Realm?" Riku immediately replied: "Four more days." Zhihao nodded, Ying Mai then sat beside him as she leaned her head to his shoulder. Zhihao was shocked at first, but then, he calmed down as he spoke: "I''ll just spend the rest of it with Ying Mai and guide them on how to cultivate." Ying Mai blushes while Riku nodded, but then, Riku looked at Ying Mai and spoke. "Come here for a second." Ying Mai nodded as she stood up and followed Riku to a few hundred meters away. Riku then spoke: "I''ll now form a partnership with you, open the both of your hands open as you face your palm towards me." Ying Mai followed Riku''s instruction, immediately, Riku turned into her human form as she held her hands. "I, Celestial Beast, Riku, the Purgatory Blood Flame Phoenix, vow to help this Human on her grand endeavor Bestow a portion of my Primordial Phoenix Blood!" After speaking, Riku''s forehead glowed as a seal appeared, she held Ying Mai''s hands upward as ten drops of blood fell from the seal, all ten drops were caught by Ying Mai. After which, Riku cut Ying Mai''s palm, Riku''s blood on top of Ying Mai''s palm immediately sunk in as her wound immediately closed. Riku looked at Ying Mai and spoke: "Return to Zhihao first..." Ying Mai nodded as she walks back to Zhihao. Riku then continued: "Endure it, to the limits of your capabilities." Ying Mai heard Riku''s word, she immediately pondered: "Endure?" Zhihao then called: "Mai, come here, is your business with Riku done?" "Un!" Ying Mai nodded as she walks back to Zhihao, but as soon as the both of them came into contact, Ying Mai felt something warm flowing inside her body. Riku is in the sky, she then summoned a dimensional scar and went in, her countenance doesn''t look great either, her mouth is currently bleeding, and after a while, she cough out a mouthful of blood. Riku smirked: "I guess, I`ll have to rest for a few days..." After speaking, Riku immediately fell asleep. Ying Mai''s eyes suddenly opened wide, the warm feeling inside her body started to run wild, as the warm current start to turn into heat. Blood immediately filled her mouth as she coughs it out. "MAI!" Zhihao shouted. Ying Mai looked at Zhihao as she smiled and spoke: "Master... Dear, I''ve already formed a bond with Riku, I guess this is the effect." Zhihao looked at Ying Mai as he nodded, "Stay strong." "Yes!" Ying Mai gritted her teeth as she endured the pain, but being with Zhihao, she felt extremely relaxed even though her body is burning inside. Ying Mai looked at Zhihao as she endured the pain as it intensifies. ''I`ll endure everything for you... I will share the burden on your shoulder.'' Chapter 249 My pc broke again, sorry @@ I''m really sorry, my pc broke again guys... It might take a few hours... Or worst days... But i''ll try my best to buy a new one. I''ll post a video of it in my discord server to anyone who wishes to view it tomorrow. Extremely sorry. Like almost all of you guys know, I''m a poor person, sorry for the inconvenience- OmnipotentDad@@ Chapter 250 Another One Zhihao couldn''t help but shudder, with the Aura Ying Mai is releasing, it most likely has the same pain level he endured when he was on Earth, the time with his attributes is combining with his body, forming a Godly Physique, the ''Tyrannical God''s Body''. Zhihao went inside his mind as he configured the system: ''Make a soundproof barrier.'' *Ding!* =Sealing the room, Preventing the sound from leaking and being heard from the outside. Zhihao closed his face to Ying Mai as he kissed her forehead: "You don''t need to grit your teeth, just shout." Ying Mai looked at Zhihao as she nodded, although she did, so long as she can still endure it, she wouldn''t make any noise. But as soon as Zhihao''s voice vanished, the pain Ying Mai felt doubled. "Urg!" With gritted teeth, Ying Mai started to groan, blood started to leak out of her mouths, With his cultivation sealed, Zhihao could not help but hugged Ying Mai, but as soon as he did, he felt an incredible heat coming out of her aura. Zhihao''s skin is being burnt to a crisp at an incredible fast phase. *Ding!* =Warning: Phoenix Flame is burning the host''s skin, caution is advised; move a meter away every minute. -Celestial Phoenix Flames: The purest amongst the three top flames, although it is the weakest, in terms of firepower, but it is the greatest in terms of quality. Although the skin being burnt is regenerating extremely fast, but the speed of it burning is faster. Zhihao then smiled as he hugged Ying Mai''s body, although he is being burnt to a crisp, he wants to endure the pain together with Ying Mai. Feeling his warm embrace, Ying Mai smiled, she then hugged Zhihao tightly, and as soon as she did, a powerful surge of power emitted from her body. Zhihao looked at Ying Mai: "Stop! what are you-" But before Zhihao could finish his words, Ying Mai''s power blasted at him, sending him ten meters away from her. Zhihao was thrown out of the space, but when he tried to come back, Ying Mai waved her hands, a powerful barrier blocked the path between Zhihao and her. "Ying Mai!" Zhihao howled, but he didn''t hit the barrier, if he did, Ying Mai would take a backlash. Ying Mai looked at him with a smile that seemed to be saying; ''I can make it, do not worry.'' Zhihao hesitating for a bit before nodding his head, he sat down a meter away from Ying Mai, seeing this, Ying Mai retracted the barrier and focused on enduring the pain that''s coursing through her whole body. Zhihao closed his eyes, he couldn''t bare to see Ying Mai bearing such pain alone, yet he couldn''t do anything to help, Ying Mai is screaming inside the sound barrier, tears running down from her eyes, flames going berserk out of her body, and blood continuously escaping her mouth. After a few hours, the pain vanished steadily as Ying Mai collapsed, but before she could hit the ground, Zhihao dashed forward to catch her. "You did great." Zhihao spoke as he slowly wallks to somewhere and summoned the carriage, placing Ying Mai inside to rest. . . ... Another day had passed, Zhihao woke up from his sleep, but what he saw amazed him. Ying Mai is looking at him with a serene smile, her pure white jade skin had actually browned a bit, a little tanned, making her skin glimmer like gold, her face more alluring than before, her improvements had caused Zhihao who is already used to beautiful to become astounded. "Good morning dear." Ying Mai spoke with a blush on her face, increasing her allure further. Zhihao couldn''t help but smile and reply: "Good morning." Ying Mai hugged Zhihao as the latter did the same, it felt like the time had stopped as the two of them. "Ahem." Someone then cough, the both of them looked at the location and saw Riku, but currently, Riku is like a chicken with a lot of her feathers removed. "What happened to you?" Zhihao asked as Ying Mai nodded, she wanted to ask that too. Riku sighed as she spoke: "I need to rest for a few years, one or two, the amount of primordial blood that I gave Mai took a huge toll to me, I wouldn''t be able to send you back to the Fantasy Realm, but you just need to board this carriage in four days, it will immediately bring you back there." After speaking, Riku created a Dimensional Scar and continued: "Ying Mai, the current you have the power of a 5th Celestiality Sovereign, and with the addition of your Spiritual cultivation, you are as powerful as a 1st stage, God Realm lower level." After speaking, Riku dove to the Dimensional Scar without waiting for their reply, her current situation is dire, she needed to hibernate for a while, luckily, the Celestial Energy within her Celestial World is so thick, if not, she would at least need five million years to recupperate. Zhihao and Ying Mai couldn''t help but to sigh, clearly, they know that Riku had sacrificed a lot to give Ying Mai those ten drops of her Primordial Blood. The both of them are in deep contemplating, but out of nowhere, someone shouted. "Big Brother! HELP!" Both Zhihao and Ying Mai woke up from their daze, immediately moving out of their carriage. Zhihao opened his eyes widely, he can see a flying dragon with Injuries all over his body, then something is following it from behind, something like a horse with a dragon as its face, its body is covered with scales as the tail burning with blue flames. "Qilin?" Zhihao spoke, clearly, that beast is stronger than Baobao. The two of them soared to the sky and immediately intervened between Baobao and the Qilin. "Stop!" Zhihao shouted, ordering the Qilin to halt its pursuit. The Qilin glared at Zhihao and spoke: "Human, they had trespassed on my territory, as a long level being, he had the audicity to invade my private property!" Zhihao didn''t reply, only glancing at Baobao. "Big Brother! I''m sorry! Baobao warned me, but I urged him to!" Blythe spoke, feeling extremely guilty. Zhihao nodded as he glanced back at the Qilin, he then spoke: "You will be my mount, you can choose!" The domineering tone of Zhihao enraged the Qilin; "ROAAAAAR!" "How dare a lowly human like you order me, a Celestial Qilin, a 6th Stage Celestiality Sovereign!" But before the Qilin can do anything, Ying Mai''s power surged forth, immediately pressuring the Qilin down. The Qilin felt immediately threat as it started to move back, it looked at Ying Mai as it turned its gaze back to Zhihao, he couldn''t feel any energy from Zhihao, but seeing Ying Mai assisting Zhihao, it could only mean one thing to him, Zhihao is an ordinary human. The Qilin glared at him and spoke: "I can kill that Mortal, but I will forgive their transgretion on my territory this time, be sure not to do it again." Clearly, the Qilin didn''t want to back down too, it immediately retreated, but before it could go away, Zhihao spoke. "I told you, I need a mount, where are you going?!" The Qilin felt a tremendous killing intent together with a battle intent, the sofucation it felt is extremely huge, it started to feel scared, slowly, it looked at the location where that voice came from and only saw Zhihao glaring at him like the death god itself. "I will give you only two choice, to become my mount or die! you threatened my Family, you injured her pet, so I`ll make you my pet!" Hearing Zhihao''s words, the Qilin couldn''t help but shudder; ''Me? The great Celestial Qilin, Ruma? A pet?!'' Chapter 251 Start to an End Sorry guys, I still have a lot of things I had forgotten, but I''ll make some adjustments with the story, SMS will end with 400 ~ 500 chapters, then, the next thing I will do is to remake it from scratch, increasing the length of up to 1,500 or more, but that''s for the future, this is my first born child, and the least that I want is for people to see it to the end! With or without donations, I''ll finish all of my novels before departing WN permanently. Lists of novels that I will finish in WN; SMS MOFM (A transition from game to reality, somewhat like Sao, but in the Real world where more than 100 Worlds from different plains are connected.) Heavenly Sovereign on Earth (BTW, this novel is an apocalypse novel, where evolved animals and creatures start to come out, Zombies, Vampires, and werewolves if you guys are interested.) =========== The mountains. Zhihao has already stepped into Godhood, but he is still a newborn, still, it would be enough so long as he could regain his strength back to its original once the duration of the side effect is up. But right now, the one in front of him is a 6th-stage Celestiality Sovereign Demon Beast, A Celestial Qilin named Ruma. "Human... chose your next words correctly or it will be your last!" Ruma coldly retorted as he fiercely glares at Zhihao. Zhihao tilts his head; ''I only have my physical strength, but it should be enough to deal with him... right?'' But without any way for him to calculate, he looks at Ruma and spoke: "Then, I can guarantee that it will be your last if you dare reject me once more." Zhihao spoke full of confidence, hearing this, Ruma felt a little dismay, he could clearly feel the ominous aura coming out of Zhihao''s body, that extreme killing intent, that pitch black murderous aura slightly leaking. How many powerful creatures had this man killed? This thought is currently going around Ruma''s head. Ruma then calmly makes up his mind: "Human, I can kill all of the people here before I die, do you think that killing me will be worth it?" Zhihao sighs: "I already warned you, I gave you a chance yet you let it sleep away. Dear, protect everyone." Ying Mai nodded: "Yes." As soon as Ying Mai finishes her word, she immediately surrounded both Zhihao and Ruma with her aura alone. But something shocked Ruma and everybody else, Ying Mai is currently flying as a long silk clothe started to hover around her whole body, it felt extremely mystifying as her power can actually sooth their tensed nerves. Ruma stared at Ying Mai as he utters: "No... No way... a genuine... Celestiality Sovereign at the 7th stage?! And a human?!" Comparing the Celestiality Sovereign levels between a demon beast and a human? In terms of power, ten 5star Celestiality Sovereign demon beast is equivalent to that of a single Celestiality Sovereign human, unless they evolve into a higher being, for example, Heavenly Beasts, Immortal Beasts, or Celestial Beasts. Zhihao smirks: "Sorry but, your opponent will be me!" Rumo woke up from his stupor as he glares at Zhihao from the sky: "Impudence!" Zhihao frowns as he gathers his physical prowess; "For how long are you going to look down on me?! DOWN!" As soon as Zhihao''s words finishes, Rumo felt a huge pressure coming down from the sky. "No!" Rumo resisted, but for some reason, the pressure increases further as Zhihao''s killing intent and murderous aura started to target him too. "GRAAAAA!" BANG! Howls of pain came from Ruma as he slammed into the ground, causing a huge cloud of dusts to flew into the air. Ruma slowly opens his eyes: "Human..." Zhihao slowly walks towards Ruma, he himself didn''t think that just by achieving the 1st stage of Godhood, his physical strength will soar leaps and bound. But then, he started to think... Zhihao: ''The difference between 1st stage and 2nd stage is double... even triple in some cases... Then how strong are the Titans?'' But after a while, he shook his head as he looks at Ruma: "You still dare to belittle me?" Ruma looks at Zhihao in shock, he couldn''t understand what had just happened, yet, he is here now, laying on the ground with his body engraved on it. Zhihao sighs at Ruma becoming speechless yet, he couldn''t blame the latter: "I will give you one last chance." Ruma woke up from his stupor as he bows down: "I beg for mercy, let me serve you." Zhihao nods his head as he looks at the people: "From this day forth, this location shall be known as the Supreme Celestial Empire!" "YES!" Everyone responds including Blythe and Ollie. Zhihao then proceeds with the Heavenly Phoenix Goddess'' Oath with Ruma to be a servant to him and those he deemed fit. Zhihao then quickly made some arrangement for Soaran and Lourde''s Clan to be the elites of Blythe''s Royal Guards, with the three Celestiality Sovereign, Soaran, Lourde, and Paldran as the generals. The next steps are for the people to continue their training and cultivation, their targets are to kill Celestiality Sovereign demon beasts or tame one. Quickly, two months had passed. Supreme Celestial Empire. Zhihao is currently standing on a balcony together with Ying Mai, Blythe, and her generals. Zhihao is currently looking at the people in front of him who are floating in the sky, he then moves his gaze to Blythe: "This is your moment." "Un!" Blythe nods with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, big brother." Zhihao smiles and nods at her words. Blythe then looks ahead: "Today... Today is the day that I had dreamed of, never would I have thought that it will ever come true, but I wish for everyone to support me through this." "Princess!" "Queen!" "Matriarch!" Blythe tries to control herself, but the rage and happiness inside her body is chaotic. Seeing this, both Ying Mai and Zhihao pats her shoulder, giving her encouragement. Blythe nods: "Please help me... Please help me take back what rightfully belongs to my family." Blythe''s voice is not strong, yet, it carries all the emotion she had hidden deep inside her for many years. Seeing this, the people in front of her couldn''t help but feel saddened. "Yes." Blythe''s words are not those of someone ordering, it is like that of a person begging; "Today, We shall retake it with our own hands!" "YES!" "WOAH!" Zhihao smiled as he nods in approval, he then looks at Riku and nods again. Riku nods in understanding as she moves her claws simultaneous to Zhihao. A Dimensional Scar appears as everyone felt their will surging up in the skies. "CHARGE!" Someone shouts, he is none other than Ollie, Blythe''s uncle, he''s riding a 1st stage Celestiality Sovereign Blood Dragon. "KILL!" With Ollie leading the charge, everyone else follows, there are only ten demon beast mounts, yet, a lot of people are carried, but still, the sight in front of Zhihao is truly something else to behold. At least 1,000 people at the 1st stage of Celestiality Sovereign are flying across the sky as they enter the Dimensional Scar. Riku sighs, the denseness of the Celestial Energy within her Celestial World is too thick that it took these normal people to reach Celestiality Sovereign in less than three months of time. Zhihao smiles as he looks at Blythe: "Take back what''s rightfully yours." "Un!" With tears still in her eyes, Blythe nods full of conviction as she also took out her sword: "Baobao!" Baobao immediately appears beside the balcony: "Master!" Blythe: "Let''s go!" Baobao: "Yes!" Blythe entered the Dimensional Scar while Zhihao, Ying Mai, and Riku followed afterward. But as soon as Zhihao and the duo enter the Dimensional Scar, they saw that Blythe''s army is on standby. The three of them looks ahead and saw something unexpected. There are currently more than 3,000 people at the 1st up to the 4th stage of Celestiality Sovereign hovering above the Beautiful Sky Empire''s location and there are at least a hundred at the 5th stage while less than twenty at the 6th stage of Celestiality Sovereign. Ying Mai frowns as she took a few steps in but before she could move, a hand stops her path. Zhihao looks at her: "It is her fight, let her deal with it." Ying Mai smiled bitterly as she nods: "Yes." The three of them looks at the front again waiting for Blythe''s decision. Blythe became shocked at the sight, they can definitely win this, but there will definitely casualties after. Although the Celestiality Sovereigns on her side are genuine, all of them are still at the 1st stage. "What are the barbarians from the Uglies Kingdom doing here?!" Blythe howls as she looks at the two people in the middle of everyone. It is none other than the Beautiful Continent''s King, Innoy Aqrano, the one beside him is the ruler of the Uglies Kingdom, Lano Brodredo. "Hahaha, what great timing, the Uglies and Beautiful Kingdom has just finished forming up an alliance, You shall be the sacrifice to our glorious unification, even that sl*t of yours wouldn''t stand a chance!" The Uglies Kingdom''s Lano spoke. Hearing this, Zhihao frowns as his aura immediately gone berserk: "DIE!" A punch aiming at Lano descends out of nowhere, the pressure causing Lano to shiver as his pours started to sweat. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Lano howls his last as Zhihao''s strike struck him at the center of his chest, pushing him into the walls of the Beautiful Sky Empire''s walls leaving a huge empty hole in his chest. Ying Mai saw this and couldn''t help but chuckles: "Dear... What happened to leaving it all to little Blythe?" Zhihao seeing the dead man on the wall started to calm his nerves: "Ahem, I''m sorry little Blythe, you may continue." The air felt awkward as everyone looks at Zhihao in utter shock and speechlessness. Continue your head! You just killed the Uglies Kingdom''s great ruler! Chapter 252 Blythes first battle. Floating Fortress of the Beautiful Sky Empire. Right now, even a pin falling to the ground might be heard, utter silence caused by a single action done by Zhihao. Although he spoke of them to continue, the tenseness within everyone''s body is already gone. "That... Big brother..." Blythe could only helplessly look at Zhihao, they were being pushed back a little while ago just by that single person, but the moment he bad mouths Zhihao''s wife, he was obliterated. Blythe: "How do we proceed like this..." Zhihao couldn''t help but feel sorry: "Ahem, well... The only problem here is between my little sister, Blythe Cantar and the current ruler of the Beautiful Continent, Innoy Aqrano. If you do not want to be involved in this, be sure to make some distance for the two power to fight each other." Nobody still moved, who knows what Zhihao will do after that? Noticing their hesitation, Zhihao sighs: "I only killed that ugly person due to the only reason that he bad mouths my wife, I can prove it to anyone, if they wish to have another example, just open your mouth and speak ill about my wife." With Zhihao following that, they were even more afraid of opening their mouths now, what if they will just apologize? But before they could, a hole on their chest will suddenly appear? Blythe looks at Zhihao still a little bit confused as there is no tension growing up. Zhihao sighs as he forgot that he just said that he''ll try to kill anyone that''s gonna speak ill of his wife, then how can they really talk if Zhihao gave such a warning? Hence, he added one last sentence: "I will never intervene, just continue with your great battle." Hearing this, a lot of people can finally open their mouth and breathe. Innoy Aqrano on the other hand, smiles as he spoke: "Then, I believe that no matter the outcome is, the supreme expert will never mind?" Zhihao shifts his sharp gaze towards Innoy: "Do you take my word as a joke then?" "N-no! Of course not!" Innoy stutters as he shook his head, declining Zhihao''s words. Zhihao nods as he moves a few meters to the east together with Ying Mai and Riku. Innoy seeing Zhihao moving away, and the woman beside him felt speechless, it is exactly that lady who she had talked bad about just a few minutes ago if she ever opens her mouth, he would definitely die together with Uglies Continent''s ruler. But still, there are thousands of experts in Innoy''s side, his group still has the upper hand, with that, he looks at Blythe: "You will never win this war, you should stop your revolution and immediately head home, I became their Emperor with the death of the Uglies Continent''s ruler, cease your futile effort!" "No, remove me from your part, I''m going back to my country to live a peaceful life." At this moment, one of the Sovereigns at the 6th stage of Celestiality Sovereign from the Uglies continent. There are only a handful of them, and if one of them is leaving, what about the rest? Another one then spoke: "Hmmp, talk about going under a 5th stage Celestiality Sovereign, count me out of it, my powers lies with the Uglies Continent!" The rest of the 6th stage of Celestiality Sovereign experts also voiced out their opinion, and in the end, took back their forces together with them. "You...! You can''t do this! Your supreme ruler and I had an agreement! Whoever stays alive will lead the remainder of the other one''s people and lands!" Innoy Aqrano spoke completely agitated yet he couldn''t really be enraged towards these experts as they are all stronger than he is. About only a quarter left from the Uglies Continent stayed behind, those that had nothing left to do and has nowhere else to go after their Lord dies, still, it would be troublesome to be involved in a dispute where a supreme expert is observing, hence, they decided to take a step out of it. Only the ones remaining from both side is Innoy''s subjects and Blythe''s people. But this time, it is different. Both of their armies are of the same number. Innoy harrumphs as he glares at the experts escaping from his grasp, he then moves his eyes towards Blythe: "Even if they left, I still have the upper hand! Surrender now and I will let you be the minister of my Beautiful Sky Empire!" Blythe shook her head: "Never." Innoy took a glance at Zhihao before going back to Blythe: "My only plan is to increase the territory of the Beautiful Continent by consuming the Uglies continent from within, with the addition of your army, we can definitely succeed!" Blythe then nods her head. Innoy: "Good that you understand." But Blythe''s respond slashed his hope: "My people, prepare for war! We will get from them, everything! We will take what is rightfully ours! LEAVE THEM NOTHING!" Paldran: "KILL!" Ollie: "Leave no rocks uncovered! Kill all the betrayers!" Lourde: "Reclaim the throne!" Soaran: "For the unification of the Beautiful Continent!" All of the generals howls their order as all of them summons their power, ribbon-like clothes appear around them as it floats beside their bodies. The army comprised of only genuine Celestiality Sovereign! A never seen occasion for millions of years has actually appeared once again! Innoy saw this and couldn''t help but be shaken: "No, do not let them trick you! They are merely just using some strange illusions to decrease our fighting power! All of you are Celestiality Sovereigns too! That thing only came from the myths!" Innoy spoke desperately as he adds: "There is no way that it can be real! KILL THEM ALL!" Hearing it, the experts from Innoy''s side finally realized, they are in the 2nd to the 4th stage of Celestiality Sovereign yet, there are no such things happening, hence, they can only label it as an illusion." "Kill them all, kill those betrayers!" "KILL THOSE REBEL SCUMS!" But just like every cliche troupe, the moment their weapons clashed that the difference between the two''s power is not in equal terms, but instead, it is like the difference between Heaven and Earth. Clang! Clang~ Clang! Just with the vanguards clashing at each other, those from Innoy''s side were pushed back immediately. "This... HOW?!" One of the experts exclaims, as the others still couldn''t believe their what''s happening in front of them. Innoy Aqrano still in the middle saw his subjects not attacking howls; "What''s the problem? Why aren''t you attacking the enemies?!" "That... My King." An expert hurriedly moves towards Innoy. "It seems to be that they are getting some sort of power-up, although I struck a 1st stage Celestiality Sovereign Expert, it felt like I was battling a peak 3rd stage Celestiality Sovereign!" Hearing this, Arnado subconsciously moves his gaze towards the location of Zhihao who''s leisurely sitting together with Ying Mai while the both of them sips some hot tea. "What?" Zhihao saw this and immediately asked like a supreme powerful expert. Innoy Aqrano immediately had sweats all over his body as he replies: "No... nothing my lord." He immediately moves his gaze back to Blythe, if what his subject had reported is true, then they are really in a huge disadvantage if they continue this war. "Blythe Cantar, let''s not spill the blood of our subordinates here and let us settle this with our own two hands!" Innoy Aqrano spoke pridefully like a great leader. Blythe was about to speak, but someone interrupted. "Woah, such a brave shameless man, I mean, you''re challenging a lady old enough to be your grand-grand daughter, shame. Right dear?" "Yes." The two people that spoke is none other than Zhihao and Ying Mai. Zhihao: "If it was me I''d die of shame, how will I be able to show my stupidly ugly face with the additional shameless personality to my ancestors." Ying Mai nods her head two times: "Yes, exactly, shameless." Zhihao: "Being old is such a blessing, you can bully whoever you want at this moment." Ying Mai nods again: "Yes, very shameless indeed." The two of them continued their skit act as they roasted Innoy''s every bit of his pride to ashes. "This..." Innoy felt enraged; ''If the both of you aren''t that strong, I would''ve already killed the both of you a hundred, no, a thousand times already!'' "What? You want to have a go at me?" Zhihao spoke as he sips his tea. "N-no, I wouldn''t dare even think about it." Innoy replied, even though he didn''t look at Zhihao this time, his hands are clenched tightly that blood started to leak out of it. Zhihao sips another mouthful of tea and looks at Ying Mai: "See? Shameless, he already cursed us a hundred times in his mind but still wants to act nicely." Ying Mai nods, but this time spoke: "We should leave it to little Blythe now, leave the shameless old man some pride, even if it''s the pride of a turtle." Riku couldn''t help but chuckles: "Yeah, turtles like to hide their pride so much." She''s referring to none other than Amro, her little brother. Seeing that the couple finally stopped, Innoy could finally release a breath of relief. He himself knew that Zhihao is only making him lose his cool, as a cultivator, calmness is one of the focal points in a battle between experts, especially in a duel. Immediately, he goes on with calming every nerve in his body. "But still, isn''t it shameless to challenge a child who''s old enough to be your granddaughter?" Zhihao added before calmly sipping his tea again. Ying Mai only chuckles this time, as she nods and proceeds with observing. Hearing Zhihao''s words yet again, Innoy couldn''t help but have his blood boil. Blythe took a look at Zhihao as she expresses her gratitude with a nod: "I ACCEPT!" As soon as Blythe spoke those words, she immediately entered her battle mode! Blythe''s battle mode, something that Zhihao specially brought for her.

This will only take effect if both parties has mutual feelings for each other. Blythe''s body became completely wrapped by an armor which is colored blue and silver, a wind looking aura also started to rotate around her as she rushes towards Innoy. "This..." Innoy felt speechless, he couldn''t really believe in how or in what way did Blythe''s power increase by more than twice its original capacity. "You will die by my blade!" Blythe howls as she makes her way to Innoy. Chapter 253 Father. With Blythe''s first move, the battle immediately started. Blythe is still at the lower level of the 1st stage of Celestiality Sovereign, although her power is that of a genuine Celestiality Sovereign, she''s fighting a 5th stage Celestiality Sovereign, Innoy Aqrano, a vicious expert that took the throne through a path of blood. Still, as a genuine Celestiality Sovereign, Blythe can fight a peak 4th stage Celestiality Sovereign of this current era. Right now, she also has the advance of herself wearing a set given by Zhihao. "The Weak never Yields!" The first thing Blythe did is what she always used to spar with Zhihao, a skill that she especially used whenever both of them spar. "That..." Innoy felt speechless, before, he can definitely feel that his power is superior to Blythe by more than two folds, yet now, Blythe''s strength is almost on par with his. "How is this possible!" Innoy hasn''t stabilized himself, and with Blythe''s sudden advance, he is left with only a single choice, to fight. "Incinerating Fist!" Innoy''s hand forms into a fist as it became wrapped around by some sort of violet flame as his bald head started to shimmer with a dark glow. Blythe saw this and immediately uses one of the techniques Zhihao gave her: "Obliterating Sword!" Bang! The two forces collide, yet, only one of them flew a few meters back. The one that was pushed back is none other than Blythe. "Hmmp! You might''ve become stronger, but you are still no match for me!" Innoy spoke with delight as it seems Blythe not only lacks power but also fighting experiences. With that, Innoy immediately follows up with his next attack. "Incinerating Kick!" Pang! Innoy continuously attacks with his two arms and feet completely covered with flames. "Princess!" Blythe''s subordinates were about to help, but then, Zhihao waves his hand, sending a gentle yet sharp wind across them, making them stop advancing further. Everyone looks at Zhihao, but all they saw is him waving his hands once more to remove the wind and continued observing, hence, all of them stopped and continued to watch. Innoy''s continues attack seemed to be extremely effective, yet, the one that''s getting bombarded looks bewildered. Blythe is just blocking Innoy''s strikes with her two slender arms, yet, there''s something weird; "I... I can''t..." Blythe then moves her gaze towards Zhihao, the latter smiled as he nods his head. "Hmmp! Not focusing in the middle of the duel, you''re asking for death!" Innoy howls as he struck consecutively without a pause. "Princess!" Ollie and the rest of her subordinates exclaim, they were all about to charge it, yet, a gentle yet sharp wind stopped them from doing so. All of them looked at Zhihao and saw him waving once more, signaling them to not continue. With Zhihao''s intervention, all of them stopped from charging forward, still, all of them are worried for Blythe. Meanwhile, Blythe could only block it casually with her armguard, but still, her gaze didn''t leave Zhihao and Ying Mai. "Hmmp! Still not giving me the right attention?" Innoy with a smile plastered on his face as he continuously struck Blythe. Blythe understood now, just how precious the armor set Zhihao had bestowed her, with that, she looks at Innoy gathering Celestial Energy on her hands: "I can''t feel any pain!" Blythe howls as she pushed Innoy a few steps back. The next thing she did is to open up her two hands and faced it up to the sky. "Excalibur!" Immediately, a black thunder struck her palm, immediately showing a black bastard sword with a violet misty aura around it. "This..." Innoy felt shocked, Blythe''s power actually increased further as soon as she summoned the sinister looking sword. Blythe then aimed at Innoy as she points her bastard sword towards him: "Let me show you, the true power of my royal family!" "Royal Family''s swordsmanship first strike, Striking Soul!" Blythe immediately vanished from her location, Innoy felt shocked, still, he prepared himself for any unexpected attacks. But out of all the places Blythe would appear, he didn''t expect for her to appear in front of him. "Hyaa!" Blythe''s howl is full of resolution as she poured Celestial Energy in it. It looks like fencing, but fencing with a bastard sword that is. "Hmmp!" Innoy made a sound as he crossed his two arms in front of him to block Blythe''s strike. Pang! A crisp sound echoes as he was pushed back a few meters again. Innoy couldn''t believe what just happened: ''My arms... had gone numb...'' Innoy felt extremely shocked, there was no pain nor any pressure yet, Blythe''s strike made one of his arm numb. The commotion before died down immediately and was replaced by a weighty silence. Then, Blythe provoked the silence. "Second Strike, Draconic Whiskers!" With Blythe''s entire arm lifted while gestured in a striking pose, Innoy immediately reacted with defending his heart. "Hyaa!" Just like that, Innoy thought that he predicted correctly, yet, the bastard sword seemed to blur as he couldn''t follow it anymore, the trajection of Blythe''s strike suddenly changes and it looks like a whip. Innoy couldn''t defend anymore as he focused all of his Celestial energy to his skin. Tschk! The sound of a sword cutting the human''s flesh echoes. "Kuk!" Innoy felt it, extremely. Blythe actually struck him on the back of his head. The trajectory of Blythe''s second strike is unpredictable. Yet, little Blythe didn''t stop there as she pushes forward with her next move. "Third Strike, Unhindered Sanction!" Blythe is holding the bastard sword in front of her chest as she immediately moves it forward to strike Innoy. Currently, in Innoy''s mind is working none stop; ''Is it a whip-like strike? A forward one? Which!!!?'' Everything is moving into slow motion in his eyes, but then, when it''s about to strike him at his neck, he now knows that it''s a forward strike without any strikes to it, just a simple strike. "Ha! It''s a straight strik---" Innoy rejoiced, he forgot that he''s in a duel and not in a game. Swish~! "Pfft!" Innoy pukes out a mouthful of blood as Blythe''s sword pierces through his neck until her sword reaches halfway through. Still, Blythe avoided the Spinar Cord, giving Innoy a few more time on this land to live. Blythe has tears on her eyes flowing down to her cheek, she slowly loosens her gritting teeth as she murmurs. "Beloved..." A single word escapes her mouth. a pink and white light surrounds her as a few formations started forming under her. Slowly, a figure starts to materialize. Blythe couldn''t help but bit her lips as tears continue to flow down from her eyes, as soon as the figure completely materialized, Blythe uttered another word. "Father..." The figure slowly looks back and smiled at Blythe: "My daughter." The one that Blythe summoned is the original ruler of the Beautiful Continent, her father, Dawn Cantar. "You did well to persist for so long." Dawn Cantar spoke as he continuously pats Blythe''s head; "My daughter, I will give you my final advice as your father, as you enter the stage of blood, you will die by blood. It will be nearly impossible for you to live peacefully again." Blythe then looks up to her father: "Father... I..." Dawn Cantar: "But I know you will do well, whatever you choose, you are my daughter after all, so just do as what your heart desire, your mother and I will be there for you, always looking after you from the skies." Blythe still couldn''t stop her tears: "I will... I will get my revenge together with my father." Dawn Cantar smiles at her daughter''s word, still, his eyes are full of worry and regret: "Then, let us do it, as father and daughter." "Un!" Blythe replies resolutely as the both of them looks at Innoy Aqrano. Dawn Cantar''s tender gaze immediately changes from that of a loving father into that of a demon instead: "For a traitorous maggot like you, dying quickly is too much of a present, but being in the presence of my daughter, I shall do exactly that." Blythe and Dawn prepared to strike together, Innoy waved one of his hands trying to stop the duo, but before he could utter another gasp, they immediately struck. "Hyaa!" "Hmmp!" "Kuk!" Innoy couldn''t even defend as his eyes slowly turn white and descends from the sky down to the ground. "YEAH!" "WE WON!" "The throne will return to the rightful owner!" "Long live the queen!" "Long live the queen!" Blythe''s subordinates cheered to the top of their lungs seeing the fall of the useless ruler Innoy Aqrano, the tyranny of his reign has come to an end. But as all of them cheered, Blythe and her father, Dawn is looking at each other, they only have a few seconds left together and will be apart a few more months after that. "Blythe, do not rush on things, try to think carefully of what you-" Dawn is speaking and was about to lecture Blythe about life, but before he could, the latter already hugged him tightly. Dawn: "Now now, you are a queen, you must not act like that, did I say anything bad?" Blythe only shook her head. Dawn: "Do you not want to be lectured by your father anymore?" Blythe shook her head again. Dawn sighs: "We will see each other again before I enter the cycle of life, so lecturing should come for the next time. My dear daughter, both me and your mom deeply love you." Blythe tightens her hug, but Dawn''s body started to glow again turning into thousands of light: "Father... I love you and mom so much." Swish~ The wind sounded as Dawn''s body slowly diminishes. Dawn smiled for one last time: "We love you so much too." After Dawn spoke, he completely disappears leaving only a few dots of light behind. Blythe wipes her tears, still, her eyes red from crying can be seen. She slowly looks behind her, the people that came with her full of happiness from their victory as she shouts: "We''ve won!" "YEAH!" Chapter 254 Start of the Mission. Four hours had passed. Completely conquering the Beautiful Continent once again, Blythe together with Zhihao, Ying Mai, and her subordinate celebrates the event. "Yeah!" Right now, they are celebrating their victory at the huge garden inside the Floating Beautiful Empire''s fortress. The news of Blythe baking back the throne was immediately spread throughout the whole of the Beautiful Continent, other continents besides them it would definitely hear this news once the merchants from the Beautiful Continent decides to pay them a visit. As the news spread far and wide, citizens of the Beautiful Continent became merry and decided to celebrate too, but there are a few powers who are currently nervous and fearful of Blythe which helped the Aqrano Clan from dethroning the Cantar Royal Family when Dawn died. "Let''s drink!" Ollie shouted fully of joy as he hugs his wife in excitement. Blythe and the rest laugh as Ollie also did some fun things to liven up the atmosphere some more. Another few minutes had passed, although all of them are still partying, Blythe already made her way up to the balcony as she looks at the place where the people under her are celebrating. "Is there something that''s bothering you?" A voice of a man spoke, it''s none other than Zhihao, Ying Mai is following him closely from behind. Blythe is already familiar with his voice: "Big brother, I''m just remembering some events from the past." Zhihao nods: "Is it here that you and your family watch the people of this Kingdom?" Blythe smiled slightly: "Un!" Zhihao starts walking together with Ying Mai and spoke: "We will be leaving today." Blythe looks at Zhihao with widely opened eyes: "W-why?" Zhihao smiles: "Don''t worry, we will come back here once in a while." Blythe knew he wouldn''t be able to prevent both of them from going, hence, she asks: "Where would the two of you be going to?" Zhihao pondered for a bit: "Sorry, I don''t really know myself, but we need to complete our mission here first." Blythe nods her head even though she didn''t understand a thing. Zhihao smiles yet again: "We will definitely come back though, and that time, there wouldn''t be any more trouble for all of us." Blythe only smiled, she knows none of Zhihao''s background, the only thing she knows is his personality as a kind and great big brother: "Then... Then I''ll wait for the both of you to return." Zhihao smiles and pats her head: "Be sure to lead your subordinates to greater heights, okay?" "Un!" Blythe nods repeatedly and sent a huge hug to Zhihao: "I will definitely do my best." Zhihao smiled as he continues patting her head: "I know you will." Blythe then looks at Ying Mai: "Big sis, I''ll really miss you a lot." Ying Mai chuckles as she also approached Blythe: "Me too, I''ll miss you a lot." The three of them finally separates from one another. Zhihao looks at the bird sitting on the balcony: "Riku, to the next location." Riku nods her head without replying, as soon as she flaps her wings, a strong gust of wind struck the location where Zhihao and Ying Mai is standing: "Treasured Continent is the place we will be going next." Riku sent a telepathic message to both of them. Zhihao then looks at Blythe: "I will leave the other continents close to your territory in your hand. Be sure to teach them well and set a good example." Blythe seemingly knowing what Zhihao is hinting on nods her head: "Yes, I will." Zhihao smiles at little Blythe as a void door opens below them. Zhihao looks at Blythe one last time: "Until we meet again." Ying Mai also added: "Be sure to wait for us, okay?" Blythe wanting to act brave started to have tears on her eyes: "I will." The two nods as they entered the void door. Seeing the two vanishes without a trace, Blythe spoke one last time: "I will never let the both of you down." After a few breaths of time. Zhihao and Ying Mai arrive in a somewhat similar place. Zhihao is the first to speak: "This is the treasured continent?" Riku nods: "Yes." Zhihao scanned around, the beautiful Continent is surrounded by four other continents, the Graceful Continent, the Gorgeous Continent, the Uglies Continent, and the Flowery Continent. He left the task for Blythe to remodel and make the Beautiful Continent as a starting line for those near it. Now, they are in the Treasured Continent, the area it belongs to is the true powerhouse of Riku''s Celestial World. The Continents that surround it are the Angelic, the Devilish, the Sacred Palace, and the Perfect Continents, all of them are the true powerhouse and front line power of this Celestial World. Zhihao looks ahead and immediately saw a ginormous wall a kilometer away from their location, Its height is like a hundred or more meters up. Zhihao: "That is?" Riku nods her head: "That''s one of the guardian Kingdom of the Treasured Continent." Zhihao nods his head in understanding, just by the sheer size of a kingdom, it already surpassed the Beautiful Continent. Still, Zhihao couldn''t help but ask: "Then... are they having a feast? Like... some demon beast tournament?" Riku shook her head. Zhihao nods in understanding: "Is it then... that time when you came back injured?" Riku was quite stunned, but just after a few seconds, she finally records and nods. Zhihao: "How much of your strength had you recovered that time?" Riku pondered for a bit before replying: "I''ve only regained 1% of my total power." Zhihao nods his head: "Nobody should mess with those close to me." "Let''s go." Zhihao spoke as Ying Mai walk by his side. Hearing his words, Riku felt warm; "Then, you better not die kid." Zhihao chuckles as he replies: "Of course." "Do you even know who you are talking to? You should say that to yourself." (Zhihao.) Riku chuckles: "Hmmp, worry about yourself first." But Zhihao''s following words moved her deeply. Zhihao: "After all, you''d need to be there to protect my predecessors in the future." Riku''s heart couldn''t help but warm as she spoke: "Hmmp! Then, you should really become stronger." Zhihao: "Got it." The three of them then continued to head towards the first City as they looked at the Demon Beasts assaulting the Kingdom itself.

Chaos... utter chaos can be seen as people from all directions kept shouting, and the reason for that are the monsters, these demon beasts that are attacking the Kingdom''s outer walls. "ROAAAAAAAAR!" Thundering roars, clashing weapons, and celestial energies can be continuously heard as the skirmish between the two sides lasts. "Where''s are the royal army? At this rate, we will be obliterated!" "There is no response from the capital yet, even the holy knights from the middle walls aren''t even responding to our calls." "Captain, news from the middle city." "Go on." "They said that they are busy with assisting civilians right now and couldn''t send reinforcements." The one they called captain couldn''t help but frown, but before he could say anything, another messenger arrives. "Captain, from the royal capital." "Report." "The royal army is busy with escorting the esteemed officials and couldn''t help with our fight." The captain''s mood immediately turns sour, veins started to reveal themselves on his face as he shouts. "Everyone, compress into a single group! We will defend only a single area! Call out all of your comrades from the other side of the walls and reinforce them as they retreat!" All of the people surrounding him nods their head: "Yes!" Then, there''s someone arrived as all of those people left: "Captain." "What is it?" The captain replies with a frown, he already felt enraged due to the people above him ignoring the 3rd district, and now, another person arrived, he''s not even expecting any more good news. "Sir, I think that the 2nd and 1st district is trying to remove the 3rd district from its kingdom." Their kingdom is divided into 4 levels, the 3rd district is the one at the outer most layer of the kingdom, the place where commoners without any backings reside, the 2nd district is where commoners with a connection, well-known merchants, and some great establishments like blacksmiths and such, the 1st district is where the great Clans resides, and lastly, the royal capital where powerful nobles and the royal family is located. The captain looks like a middle-aged man at his 50s, but it''s fairly sure that he already surpassed the thousand-year-old mark. "What do you mean by that?" The captain spoke. "Sir, there are thousands of Royal Army men stationed in the outer walls of the 2nd district!" The captain felt really enraged now: "As soon as everyone arrives, we will move out of here and leave all these d*mned demon beasts for them to handle!" "YES, SIR!" Meanwhile, there are three people approaching the said kingdom. "Riku, what''s the name of that Kingdom?" The one that asked is Zhihao. Riku looks at his way and replies: "That''s the Stargazer Light Kingdom." Zhihao nods his head, his gaze slightly moves towards a group of people making their way out of the Kingdom''s walls as they massacre the Demon Beasts in their path while protecting thousands of civilians in the middle of their group. "And they are?" Riku sighs slowly: "People with a good head on top of their shoulder." Zhihao nods his head in confirmation, he then shifts his gaze towards the Demon Beasts surrounding On the human''s side, there are thousands of 5th to 6th stage Celestiality Sovereigns, but in the demon beasts'' side, uncountable numbers of them can be seen, the lowest between them is at least at the 4th stage. "So... Who should I be helping this time?" Zhihao asked as he looks at Riku again. Riku just wants to see this kingdom burn for some reason but deep within her eyes can be seen signs of sympathy. Riku: "Can you please save that Kingdom first?" Zhihao hearing her answer nods his head in reply: "Sure." Since Zhihao has already entered the ranks of the Gods, the first thing that benefited him was the unsealing of his seal. With the limiter in his Spiritual Energy undone, his power can be unleashed at max! Zhihao started to fly in the sky but before he could reach some distance, Riku spoke; "Zhihao, after this campaign is done, I''ll give you a very great reward." Zhihao nods his head, with or without this reward, he''will definitely help Riku unconditionally: "Leave it to me." Riku chuckles as she added: "Although I already gave you a reward, I guess that''s for the first step, this is the real reward then." Zhihao could only chuckle as he continuously hovers above the ground: "Sure." Zhihao then moves towards the Kingdom, his gaze somewhat shifted to the escaping people before he continues his way again. Zhihao then made use of his first invented skill: "Handsome Circle Skill!" Actually, Zhihao just wanted to see the effects of his skill after entering godhood, but he didn''t expect its effect to be like this. The one that he has on his hands right now is extremely similar to that of the manga that he had read, it''s like a spinning top with blades forming by its side continuously rotating. "Wao!" Zhihao couldn''t help but exclaim. His voice isn''t really that of low, especially since he had reached Godhood and didn''t control it, now, all those below him move his gaze towards his location. "Who?" "Grrrr.." Both human and demon beasts stopped as they looked at Zhihao mystified by his motives. Zhihao then closed his eyes slightly: ''Riku... These demon beasts?'' Riku without any hesitation in her eyes spoke: "Pests!" Zhihao nods, he then looks at the demon beasts horde, with his other arm, he summons another skill: "Handsome Circle skill!" Two white rotating lights were both on his hands. Zhihao then thought of something... ''Let me increase the power for both of them and see its effects.'' Zhihao immediately aims his skills on two parts of the Demon Beasts horde, one from those coming closer to the Kingdom and the other to the forest they are coming out of. "Grrr?" "Hmmm?" Both the humans and the demon beasts looked at Zhihao. "GRAAAAAAAAAA!" One of the demon beasts noticed its trajectory and ordered: "RETREAT!" It''s one of the transcendent powers of the demon beasts, one that can talk. "Too late." Zhihao spoke as he releases his two skills, unleashing its full might towards the Demon Beasts. "BEGONE! TH*T!" Zhihao spoke a word that he had read once but never known its meaning. _Swish~_ The demon beasts were stunned at first, but after just a single breathe, all of them scattered, spreading as they retreated. "GWAAAAAAAAAAAA!" "ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!" Screams and howls of panic sounded like all of the demon beasts tries to escape. "Hmmp, all of you will never escape!" Zhihao spoke as he looks at the two balls of rotating light descending from the sky down to the ground. As soon as Zhihao''s words stopped, the two massive balls struck the ground. _Swish~ Swish~_ But out of expectation, it didn''t make a loud noise, instead, there was a gentle wind as it struck the ground, the part of the light ball that struck the ground vanishes without leaving a single scratch on its surface, but those Demon Beasts that was struck by the ball of light vanishes with a single hair from its body left. Meanwhile, the rotating sharp objects surrounding the ball of energy sliced the demon beasts that escaped the initial smash. "GRAAAAAA---" Whenever a demon beast would get hit, it''s like their whole existence were erased, not leaving a single thing behind, it''s like they didn''t even exist to begin with. Instead of utter chaos, all that happened is silence after a gentle gust of wind. Zhihao looked at the battlefield... no, the chopping board, although he couldn''t kill all of the demon beasts, he already eliminated about 60% of those uncountable demon beasts with just this two skills. Ying Mai flew towards his side and asked: "What kind of skill is that? It stopped as soon as it was about to hit the ground!" Riku couldn''t help but chuckle; "Mai''er, you`ll definitely feel it later too." Ying Mai couldn''t help but smile bitterly, as soon as she thought that she finally manages to catch up to Zhihao, the latter would just show the distance between them. Feeling Ying Mai''s mood growing awkward, Zhihao brushes Ying Mai''s hair to the back of her ear: "Don''t worry, you''ll definitely reach the level I currently am." Ying Mai feeling that Zhihao is comforting her couldn''t help but smile, with a nod, she replies: "Yes... dear." Zhihao nods his head, he then spoke: "It felt like... the Spiritual Energy I released... I can control it like it is part of my body." Hearing Zhihao''s words, Ying Mai could only nod her head, without actually feeling it herself, she would definitely not know what Zhihao is talking about. The three of them then looked at the Kingdom with a lot of experts flying staring at them in a daze. Zhihao then spoke: "Let''s go." Chapter 256: Youd already be dead. [You''ve gained 181,119,110 EXP!] [You''ve gained 293,859,000 EXP!] [You''ve gained 1,891,355,232 EXP!] [You''ve leveled up!] [You''ve...] Massive amounts of experience points assaulted Zhihao''s vision, he never received this many amounts ever since the time when the aliens invaded in the Gailea continent happened. In just a short amount of time, Zhihao leveled more than 100 times. Name: Zhong Zhihao Age: 24 (54) Level: 999 Class: Cultivator Rank: Lower God Normal/God attributes: Strength: SSS (T1) Agility: SSS (T1) Dexterity: SSS (T1) Power: SSS (T1) Power sources; Spiritual Energy Mana Zhihao didn''t know what these "T1" means, hence, he asked Riku about it, the latter then explained it. Riku: "Rankings between Gods and normal beings are different, in terms of Godly powers, it is ranked between T1 the lowest, and with the highest being T10. Our Young Master Arthariaz reached the T10 level before he fell to his brother''s trickery." Zhihao couldn''t help but sigh; "I have a long way to go huh." Riku could see his dismay and couldn''t help but sigh: "For a person that actually reached Godhood when he hadn''t even used 10 years worth of time to be one, you sure like to boast in front of me huh?" Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Zhihao then realized it, yeah, Riku said that it took Arthariaz a thousand years to reach the 2nd stage of God realm, but how many years had Arthariaz actually used to reach Godhood? He has something that others didn''t have. Zhihao couldn''t help but smile; ''I have my system, the system that Arthariaz left for me.'' Although time isn''t on his side, he definitely isn''t slow. Zhihao smiled as he nods his head: "I''ll need more levels!" After thinking like that, Zhihao finally recovers his mood. Zhihao and the two made their way to the Stargazer Light Kingdom. Zhihao noticed Ying Mai''s slight disappointment in herself and couldn''t help but shook his head, he then, used Earth''s customs for dating, he held her hand as he led Ying Mai down the ground. Ying Mai immediately blushes as she looks down the ground but immediately shook her head; ''This isn''t supposed to be how the older one should react!'' She then held her heads up high, but the red blushing cheek of hers could be clearly seen. Riku chuckles at the sight and stayed quiet. For Ying Mai who grew up in a ''Fantasy'' World filled with xianxia genre, this is a first for her, still, she didn''t reject the idea of it as she could feel thousands of colorful butterfly swarming inside her stomach. Ying Mai couldn''t help it and ask: "What is this for dear?" Zhihao pondered for a bit before replying: "This is a custom in my original World, Earth, it is done by couples there." "Couples?" Ying Mai asked out of curiosity. "Something like engaged people," Zhihao replied without any other intent than explaining it. Ying Mai hearing it couldn''t help but blush further, this time, as red as a tomato. The two of them chatted after as they slowly took their time into walking towards the Kingdom''s gate. Riku, on the other hand, couldn''t help but watch this seemingly innocent love story unfold. The atmosphere is somewhat like that of spring for youths in high school. But then, everything changes when three people arrive. "Hello there young expert, I am Suryang, Leader of the Holy Knights from the Passive church in the branch of the Stargazer Light Kingdom." An old man with white hair, white beard and mustache spoke, wearing a white robe underneath his silver armor. "I am Halsakim, leader of the elite guards from the 2nd district." Another one spoke, this time, this one looks like a person at his 50s, usually, people in this novel will keep their hair long for both women and men other than those that are on Earth, even Zhihao has long hair. but this man has black short hair, his figure is like a boulder moving on its own. "Young expert, I am Slanmark, General of the Royal Army of the Stargazer Light Kingdom." This time, it''s a youth looking young man, his face can someone resembles a superstar on Earth. Zhihao nods his head in confirmation, while Ying Mai, felt her like he wants to destroy three heads at once. After their greetings, Slanmark shifted his gaze to Ying Mai, his eyes couldn''t help but slit as his gaze moves from Ying Mai''s face down to her two peaks and further to her slender curves. But before his eyes could feast some more, he felt a very eerie vibe coming from the person beside Ying Mai, his eyes move slightly and looks at Zhihao, he then smiled as nothing happened and spoke; "We dearly appreciate your help in assisting us to kill those useless demon beasts, You can come with us to the Stargazer Light Kingdom and we will compensate your time with sumptuous rewards." The three of them, Slanmark, Halsakim, and Suryang felt Zhihao''s power earlier, and they didn''t think much of it. Suryang; ''It felt like a huge power, yet, it didn''t even leave a scratch in the land, I guess it is only a one time skill for obliterating demon beasts, even I myself can do it, but since he did it on his own, I saved enough Celestial Energy. He isn''t much, but fighting him will be unbeneficial to me.'' Halsakim; ''It felt like there''s something else, but if his power only amounts to such, I can defeat him, I might lose an arm, but I will definitely win.'' Slanmark; ''Hmmp, just wait until you get the rewards, I''ll definitely kill you. Showing off in front of your girl with mere party tricks. I''ll play with your woman until she breaks as soon as I''m done with you.'' All three of them had thoughts of their own. Never would have they known that Zhihao didn''t even use 1% of his strength. Ying Mai wanted to slap Slanmark one time but considered Zhihao''s opinion instead. Zhihao nods his head: "Then, you can lead the way." The three representatives of their respective groups nod their head. Meanwhile, Zhihao looked at Slanmark and spoke: "If I have no mission to do, you''d already been dead." Zhihao''s words sounded, neither is it low nor loud but definitely can be heard. Slanmark''s veins couldn''t help but pop up, still, he remains calm and replied: "For some reason, I think you are inferring that to me. That you can easily kill me if you want to." Zhihao shook his head: "No, I''m implying it." Slanmark drew out his sword, but before he could make a move, Halsakim prevented him: "It''s not worth it." Slanmark tries to calm himself as he shook his head: "Forget it, I''m in a good mood right now so I can''t have it be ruined by a pretty boy. Let''s go." Zhihao really wanted to kill Slanmark, but Riku said that he''ll need to be patient at least a week''s time. Zhihao only nods his head as he followed the three. His hand already left Ying Mai''s, the both of his hands are clenched tightly that there is already blood drifting out of his skin. Ying Mai noticed it and immediately held his right hand; "Don''t worry, its nothing much." Seeing the reaction coming from Zhihao, she couldn''t help but feel happy about it. Zhihao smiled as he nods his head loosening the clenching of his fist. Zhihao then spoke: "Don''t worry, if something happens, this Kingdom will be listed in the history as the vanquished." When the three of them heard this, they felt enraged but only snorted, each have different agendas for Zhihao, hence, they let the "Childish" remarks go. The five of them continued their walk, but Zhihao is still looking at Slanmark, his full blast killing intent is already surrounding him but prevented it from reaching other people, only Riku could feel it and lightly sighs. Chapter 257: The Root of trouble. Imperial Castle of the royal family in the Stargazer Light Kingdom. Zhihao is standing in the middle of a location that looks like a throne room. In front of him is a young boy that seems to be at the age of 8, there are two ladies sitting beside him is continuously serving him some fruits. There is also an old man standing a meter away from him, that old man is wearing a robe that''s even more royalty looking, overshadowing the young King''s presence. "Young expert, your assistance for the demon beast horde is highly appreciated, we would like to ask if what kind of reward would you like to receive?" The old man spoke. His eyes lookings at Zhihao with slight contempt. Zhihao looks back at the old man and the young king; ''The puppet and its master...'' Zhihao became slightly curious now and couldn''t help but ask Riku telepathically; ''Are the people of your World likes usurpation of power so much?'' Riku could only sigh as she chuckles with saying anything. Zhihao has not much time to spare, he will try to fix everything within a month''s time, hence, he replied: "I would like for me and my wife to have a place of our own for a month''s time." Hearing his words, the old looking man couldn''t help but chuckle as he replies: "That will easily be arranged since a young expert like you is so modest as to not ask for a reward, we will prepare one of our own accords." The old man paused for a bit before looking at a servant by the side: "Prepare a room for our esteemed guests, be sure to treat them like how you treat your King!" The servant smiled as she replies: "Yes." After that, she went her way and chuckles. This scene didn''t get past Zhihao, and the two''s eyes, but they just ignore it. Zhihao then sent telepathy to Riku: ''What rotten kingdom you have in this place.'' Riku couldn''t help but chuckle sadly; ''I know.'' "Esteemed guests, you may follow the servants to the room you''ll be using." The old man added. Zhihao nods his head and went together with Ying Mai. After Zhihao left the place with Ying Mai, the old man looks at the three head of their station. "From which city are they from?" Halkasim is the first to reply: "I have no idea." Slanmark shooks his head: "Me too, there is not a single thing that resembles the fighting style of the nearby Kingdoms or continents." Suryang stayed still silently and didn''t answer, he has no obligation to do so after all. The old man nods his head: "Then, Slanmark, escort the young king to his entertainment room." "Yes, prime minister." Slanmark chuckles as he obediently bows his head. The old man is the prime minister, rudely enough not to introduce himself, he''s the one secretly holding power in the whole of the Stargazer Light Kingdom. Back to Zhihao. The servants led Zhihao and Ying Mai to a courtyard surrounded by high walls with a remarkable garden around the villa, it''s a single floor bungalow, there''s also a pond beside it. After the servants let Zhihao and Ying Mai enter, they bid their farewell. Zhihao responded with a nod. Zhihao looks around some more before uttering: "A VIP Prison?" "Seem so." Riku chuckles, this location is completely sealed from the outside, as soon as they entered, there were no more gusts of wind nor noises from the people. Zhihao smiles: "Since it is isolated from both sides, you can tell me what your plan is now Riku." The three of them continued to walk towards the estate as Riku started: "Well, I want to cleanse this land carefully... But I think you have other plans of your own I presume." Zhihao chuckles: "Let me hear your thoughts first. If I wasn''t going to listen, I''ve already started mine." Riku could only smile lightly at his words before nodding: "Yes, and I thank you for that." Riku: "I wish to destroy them from the roots, removing the branches will only create headaches." Zhihao immediately understood: "So... the problem is a single source then?" "Yes, it is the religious cult that..." Riku hesitated to speak. Zhihao chuckles: "That?" Figuring out that it isn''t really that serious, the atmosphere somehow lightens. Riku nods her head: "Yes, it''s a religion that deifies my older sister..." "..." All three of them became silent. Zhihao could only chuckle as he spoke: "So it is some people or group that had seen your sister?" "At first... it started when my elder sister took a liking to a single boy and wanted to bring him to her Celestial World, but then, I bargained that I''ll take the strongest person of her Celestial World in exchange." Riku explained, pausing for a bit she continues: "Well... she immediately rejected and laughs saying that it''s not even worth it even if I have a million amount of that boy..." Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Then?" Zhihao asked. Riku couldn''t help but sigh: "Before she left, she seduced that boy... saying that I''m preventing her from taking him away..." Zhihao couldn''t help but chuckle: "And that boy created all of these troubles?" "Yeah." Riku confirmed it without a single hesitation: "But that was a few million years ago, never would I have thought that it would cause this much of a problem." Riku: "He created the Vermillion''s Holy Order, a cult that thinks my elder sister is the owner of this World..." Zhihao nods: "Then where is it centered at?" Riku: "The Treasured Continent''s empire, Grand Flame Empire." Zhihao smiles: "We will definitely destroy it then." Riku chuckles: "Nothing to rush about, you should go rest here for a few days, I just need to warn you though, there are beings here that''s as strong as the current you." Zhihao nods: "Then I will rest here first and prepare for the big troubles ahead." Riku nods her head and flew up to the sky: "I will look for the treasures I sealed, I just hope that all of them are still alive." Zhihao: "Got it." As soon as Riku heard his reply, she immediately vanishes into the sky. Zhihao sighs as he continues walking towards the mansion, but then, he remembers something: "Ah! The Demon Beast cores!" Ying Mai hearing this couldn''t help but chuckle: "But I think not a single thing was left after you struck them with those powerful energies." Zhihao realized it; "Oh right... they just suddenly vanished without any trace... I''ll try to resolve everything as simple as I can next time." After entering the house, the first thing that he did is find a room and happily jumps into a bed. "AHHH!" Finally, a good day''s rest." Zhihao exclaims in happiness. Ying Mai chuckles as she sat on the bottom part of the bed: "Yes, you''ve been extremely busy with helping little Blythe for her revenge." "Yup, now it''s quiet, nobody will disturb my rest." Zhihao chuckles as he slumps comfortably on the bed. Ying Mai chuckles as she nods her head: "Yes, even Riku left, there''s only..." Ying Mai was happy until she spoke her last few words and couldn''t even continue as her cheeks blossoms into a bright pinkish color. Zhihao noticing Ying Mai''s change couldn''t help but realize what her awkward silence meant. Zhihao: "That... yeah, there''s only the two of us..." After speaking like that, the two of them entered quite the silent atmosphere. Ying Mai couldn''t help but chuckle at the awkward atmosphere. Both of them could sleep together comfortably when they were with Blythe and the rest. But now that there''s only the two of them, they couldn''t even do a single thing. Ying Mai decided to rest too and spoke: "I''ll find another room for myself until Riku comes back." Zhihao hearing this unintentionally spoke: "No, as my wife, you should sleep together with me, there''s nothing wrong about it." Ying Mai blushes further, but with fists clenched tightly, she nods her head: "Yes." Ying Mai then added: "Then I''ll remove my battle robe first..." "Un." Zhihao replies with a mum as he faced backward. Ying Mai blushes, the first time she first revealed her body to Zhihao was when the latter gave her the "Flame Emperor set.", she did it without any thought nor malice that time hence didn''t mind being seen by Zhihao. But right now, her brain is running wild. Slowly, Ying Mai removes her battle robe. Zhihao can clearly hear the silk robe slowly going down Ying Mai''s jade white skin and couldn''t help but gulps down a mouth full of saliva. Ying Mai: "I''ll be entering the bed now." Zhihao: "Un." Chapter 258: A night of flames. "COMMENCE THE INVASION!!!" - - - Bloody Divine Celestial World, Riku''s very own space for her leisure. Currently, there is a power-disrupting the balance within it, the Vermillion''s Holy Order, a cult that deifies Riku''s eldest sister. But long ago, it wasn''t like that, amongst the twelve Celestial Divinity World, Riku is within the middle of the group, her World is filled with "LAW" users from all around the globe. But the balance crashed when something unexpected happened. But what actually happened? History goes; A very average person caught the eye of a supreme existence, a vermillion bird wrapped with its crimson blood flames. "Human, I find you interesting, do you want to come with me?" It all started with these words. That young boy is nothing short of being average, his looks are average, his cultivation phase is average, even his figure is average, but what made him catch the attention of the existence known as the Vermillion Bird? Vermillion Bird; ''Riku''s word is great, my world is full of handsome and beautiful people, having a single average one should make little difference.'' But within the boy''s head, it felt like a prophecy; "I''m willing!" But right at this moment, a phoenix wrapped with golden flames came; "Hmmp! Don''t steal my people from me!" The Vermillion Bird chuckles as she soars up in the sky followed by the Pheonix herself. The young boy felt shocked, speechlessness and powerlessness for a few months, he didn''t know what to do. "A rare opportunity... was taken away from me..." The youth spoke. The boy fell to despair, really, a God actually descended and talked to him, but another one removed his chance. But what can he do? But right at this moment, a voice spoke: "Child, do you want power?" Those words were spoken, with a nod from the kid, the youth was never to be seen again for a hundred years. But when that youth came back, he started his chaos. "ALL YOU BEINGS THAT WORSHIP THE SINNED PHOENIX WILL DIE BY MY HANDS!" A taunt, provocation to all those living in the Bloody Divine Celestial World, aye, they all laughed at it first, but they stopped when one of the monarchs of the continents died by his hands in a single strike. After that event transpired, the populace of the Celestial World entered the most chaotic age it had ever known. A single entity rose up to power and wrecked destruction throughout the globe, killing every Law users whenever he passes by, but he didn''t stop there as he also destroyed Celestiality Sovereigns, young, old, women, men, there was no discrimination in whoever he kills. So long as they worship Riku, they are a target for his vengeance. But all of this stopped as the remaining Law users banded together in hunting him, a World overpowered with military resources were focused solely on a single entity. It became a hunt for his head, more than ten thousand Law users chased him to the ends, but when he''s almost dead, the most unexpected event transpired. Hundreds and thousands of God ranked Celestial Beasts arrives. "Kill all those humans, they are the last step for our dream to be complete!" At first, the youth thought that he has reinforcements, but sooner, he found out it was not when the one that thought him how to be strong as its huge bloody maw is almost at him. "YOU USED ME!" At this moment, the youth figures things out. The other Law experts didn''t have much to speak to the youth after that, although he killed a few Law users, it wasn''t enough to destroy the balance within the Celestial World, he killed about 12 or less, but what he was hated for is destroying churches and killing the innocents. "KILL THESE DEMONIC BEASTS!" One after another, the Law users started killing the demonic beasts, sadly, their number is too few for these demonic beasts, its one against a hundred. "Hmmp! You foul demon beasts, I''ll show you the price for going against the Supremes!" A battle transpired like never before, war broke through from every corner of the World. The youth seeing this fled from the battlefield to recuperate his injuries. On his way, he saw villages, cities, kingdoms, and empires getting assaulted by demonic beasts. "This is all my fault..." The youth spoke words as he completely vanishes. A few years when he came back, the Demon Beasts and the Law users had already entered the fight for survival, and at this moment, he joined the war as he created the Vermillion''s Holy Order. A group that came together to help humanity and salvation for the World by ridding itself of the Demonic Beasts. - - - Back to the present. _Shhhzxch_ The sound of a robe slowly sliding down from a smooth skin sounded. Zhihao couldn''t help but gaze one time. "Beautiful." A single word escapes his mouth as he saw the red robe sliding down from the jade white skin. Ying Mai clearly heard it and blushed fully, still, like she didn''t hear Zhihao''s words, she continues until there was her dudou that''s left. She then enters the bed and mutters quietly: "Goodnight." "Goodnight," Zhihao replies and faced the other way again. Once in a while, a sound of ruffling clothes can be heard. "Couldn''t sleep?" Zhihao asked. He remembers the time when he was with Ning''er after their wedding ceremony. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Un." Ying Mai replies, her heart beating loudly is the cause after all. "Is it cold?" Zhihao asked. Ying Mai, as both of them are cultivators, neither of them can feel cold or heat just from a temperature, yet, she replied: "Yes." Zhihao now understood: "Want me to hug you? I won''t do anything." Since he had experienced things before, he needs to just make a good atmosphere, but Ying Mai''s reply shocked him. "No." Ying Mai spoke. Zhihao: "Hmm?" Zhihao felt awkward since he was trying to just set the mood but was already rejected. But Ying Mai''s next word made everything roll. "Please do something." Ying Mai blurted out her thought due to Zhihao''s words, realizing it, she couldn''t help but blush further. "Oh..." Zhihao felt speechless, but nods his head, he made his way to Ying Mai''s side. ''You have such beautiful skin...'' Zhihao thought. "I want to do it immediately." Zhihao blurted out. Ying Mai hearing it couldn''t help but blush: "Your thoughts and words got mixed..." Zhihao realized it too and coughed: "Ah..." Since he couldn''t make up an excuse at this moment, he continues to hug Ying Mai from her back. His hands slowly moving in from Ying Mai''s waist up to one of her two beautiful mountains. "Ahnn." "Huge..." Zhihao couldn''t help but speak. Zhihao then started kissing her nape up to her ears. "Ahh!" Ying Mai couldn''t help but exclaim. Zhihao didn''t stop there as his left-hand moves to replace the other one from caressing the two mountains, his right hand though slowly moves towards an untapped oasis. As soon as Zhihao reached his destination point. "Ahh!" Ying Mai exclaims with widely opened eyes. "Does it hurt?" Zhihao asked with concern. As a reader himself, Zhihao had a question before, why do females from cultivation novels always love intercourses? He then found an answer to it when he reached it. For cultivators, they escape the human body as soon as they started cultivating, and they are people that cross blows with others multiple times, the pain tolerance within them is too huge. So what''s the secret for women on this part? The pain is almost as negligible as a pinch from an ant, and what they can feel is a genuine pleasure. "AHHHHHH!" Ying Mai''s alluring moan sounded as Zhihao''s fingers slowly slid Ying Mai''s private part. "Want me to continue?" Zhihao asks. Ying Mai blushes once more: "Please stop teasing me." Zhihao could only smile happily as he fixed Ying Mai''s position. While his hands are busy with the other region, Zhihao''s lips slowly kiss Ying Mai''s stomach up to her chest. "Ahhh!" Ying Mai couldn''t help but moan lewdly as Zhihao''s lips scouts every part of her body. Zhihao''s adventure didn''t stop there as he continues going up to her collarbone and up to her ear. This sent shivers running down Ying Mai''s spine. The most private part of her body is already drenching wet, she''s perfectly ready now. "I''ll start now," Zhihao spoke as he unleashed his junior brother. "Okay." Ying Mai nods her head bashfully, although she had lived for more than a hundred years, this is her first time. With a nod, Zhihao engaged in one of the harshest battles he''ll ever be. "Ughh!" Ying Mai''s moan filled the mansion with a lewd yet pleasant sound. "More!" "AHHH!" Chapter 259: Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra. "Ahhh!" Ying Mai''s lewd moaning of pleasure continues, her sweat started to appear from her body, the fragrant aroma assaulted Zhihao''s nose. Zhihao''s becoming more lustful by the minute. "Ha...Hao''er..." Ying Mai spoke under gritted teeth. Zhihao slowly decreases his phase, this is a really hard thing to do especially when they are in the middle of their excitement. Zhihao: "What is it?" "My... my body is heating up..." For a cultivator to say that there definitely is something. "Is it bad?" Zhihao asked out of concern. Ying Mai shook her head: "No, but it is weird... Let''s just ignore it." Zhihao nods his head as he slowly increases his phase once more. "Haa... Ahn!" Every time Zhihao struck her private part, the heat continuously increases within Ying Mai''s lower abdomen. "Ugh." Ying Mai moans increases in volume every time. At this moment, Zhihao heard a notification inside his head. *Ding!* [Skill Creation in progress.] [Skill: NONE Specifics; -A combination of mixed energies within two hosts are starting to merge. Energies being combined; -Mana -Spiritual Energy -Celestial Energy Requirements: -At least at the first stage of Godhood to withstand the overpowering energy within their body. Progress: 0.01%] Seeing this, Zhihao couldn''t help but open his eyes in awe. Zhihao then remembered what Ying Mai spoke of earlier; "Mai''er, try to circulate the heat around your body." "Huh?" Ying Mai asked in bewilderment. "Just do it, I think it has something to do with our development." Zhihao tries to just brush off the explanation as he himself didn''t know what it is. "I''ll try." Ying Mai nods as she attempts to do what Zhihao said. After that, Ying Mai felt weird and spoke: "Hao''er, I want it... more..." Hearing Ying Mai''s soft alluring words, Zhihao couldn''t stop himself any further. "Ahhh!" Ying Mai''s moan became louder. [Progress: 0.02%] "Mmmn! Mmm! Ughh! Ahhh!" Ying Mai continuously moans out of pleasure as she receives Zhihao''s full attention. Zhihao couldn''t control himself more, he moves his face in front of Ying Mai''s as both of their lips connected, Ying Mai slightly trembles, but due to the events, she couldn''t think straight anymore. Hence, Ying Mai''s action became even more aggressive. A slippery object enters Zhihao''s mouth seemingly trying to find something. Zhihao notices Ying Mai''s moves and started too. His tongue moves in to connect with Ying Mai''s. Their tongues intertwine one another as their breathing grew harder and harder. Zhihao then felt something in his lower part. A warm that Ying Mai felt before is slowly invading Zhihao''s body without any warning. [Progress: 0.85%] Ying Mai''s lower mouth grew numb after a few minutes of hard work, wanting to stop Zhihao''s mouth from moving, she bit his lips. But this didn''t make her objective, instead, it sent Zhihao into a further frenzy. Zhihao thrust harder in the result of her action. "Ahhh!" Ying Mai couldn''t help but moan louder. Zhihao''s lips are now at her ears, and with every breath, Zhihao takes sends Ying Mai further into the mood. Trying to grasp for air, Ying Mai slightly moves up, but Zhihao immediately follows with a well-pulled thurst again. "AHHH!" This time, Ying Mai''s lovely moan echoed the loudest, her eyes almost turning white from pleasure, yet, Zhihao didn''t stop there and continues to pound her like a wild bull in heat. "Ahhh! ~Mmnn~!" Ying Mai''s erotic moans sent Zhihao to heaven, releasing his first batch of supply. "Ughhh!" Ying Mai felt a bulging sensation in her private part and couldn''t help but hug Zhihao tighter, even scratching his back on the process. A few hours had passed. [Progress: 52.91%] "Ahhh... Hao''er- Harder please." Ying Mai''s voice sounded. The two of their bodies became connected, the bed they were in are already soaked wet by their sweat. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. Another few hours. [Progress: 83.03%] The two of them didn''t stop, but their phase has drastically decreased compared to before, now it''s just simple loving intercourse between them. "Hao''er... one more time..." Ying Mai spoke bashfully. The latter nods his head and couldn''t help but chuckle, Zhihao immediately started with licking one of Ying Mai''s beautiful mountain while one of his hands slowly reach towards her private part. "Ummmnnn~" A slow yet addictive moan sounded from Ying Mai''s beautiful lips yet again, sending Zhihao into his mood once more. So many hours had passed, the two of them had already done it continuously for more than 15 hours. [Progress: 99.99%] Ying Mai''s body is already glistening with sweat as she lays down completely exhausted on the bed. Zhihao chuckles seeing Ying Mai slowly catching up with her breathe: "How does it feel losing your first time?" Ying Mai hearing this didn''t blush anymore, her lips arch up into a beautiful smile as her eyes slowly shift to Zhihao: "I felt loved." Zhihao smiles at her response, closing in the distance between them and gave Ying Mai a kiss on her lips: "Don''t worry, nothing will hurt you." Ying Mai smiles at him and returns his kiss: "Thank you." *Ding!* [Progress: 100.00%] Zhihao saw this and immediately spoke: "Wait for a bit." Zhihao then checked the notification from the system. *Ding!* [Skill Creation in progress.] [Skill: NONE Specifics; -A combination of mixed energies within two hosts are starting to merge. Energies being combined; -Mana -Spiritual Energy -Celestial Energy Requirements: -At least at the first stage of Godhood to withstand the overpowering energy within their body. Progress: 100.0%] [Would you like to name the skill? (Y/N)] Zhihao nods his head; ''I will.'' Zhihao pondered for a bit, he then looks at Ying Mai; "I made a skill out of our event before, what do you think is suitable for it?" "Hmm?" Ying Mai fixing her messy hair pondered for a bit: "What kind of skill?" Zhihao closed his eyes for a bit again; ''Skill description.'' [Skill name; None] Description: Able to increase the two cultivator''s speed by ten folds while both of them are in intercourse. Uses: -Able to combine party''s energy source. -Increases cultivation speed by ten folds for one week. -Increases the chance of pregnancy. -Combining the Yin and Yang energy of the parties involved. -Extreme pleasure while the party involved are enjoying each other.] Zhihao saw this and couldn''t help but smile worriedly, he then looks at Ying Mai and spoke of the details. Ying Mai slightly blushes before pondering about it; "Since it usesHow about Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra?" Zhihao didn''t even think twice and spoke: "That sounds great." Zhihao then immediately used the name; "I want to name it "Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra." *Ding!* [Are you sure you want to name it ''Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra''? (Y/N)] "Yes." Zhihao replied confidently. *Ding!* [Skill created: Heavenly Yin and Yang Sutra." Zhihao smiled satisfiedly as he laid on the bed and grabbed Ying Mai down: "One more time." "Wa-wait!" Ying Mai tried to protest but couldn''t really reject as she also wants it but somehow got exhausted. "Ahhhh~!" Chapter 260: Energies Within. Treasured Continent, Stargazer Light Kingdom. VIP Prison courtyard. "Ummm!" Zhihao woke up first, stretching his limbs after a very exhausting day. Zhihao then looks at the side of the bed, seeing Ying Mai completely exhausted with her messy hair, he couldn''t help but chuckles. "Oh, so you finally woke up." At this moment, a red fiery bird spoke. "Morning Riku." Zhihao wasn''t shocked as he greeted. Riku chuckles as she lowers her voice: "You should try it now." Zhihao shook his head: "No need, I can already feel it." Zhihao closes his eyes, like how he felt mana before, he can feel the Celestial Energy raining down from the sky. "So this is Celestial Energy," Zhihao mutters as he held his hands up high. Riku seeing this chuckles: "Yes, I just hope you get used to it faster." Zhihao nods his head: "Check Ying Mai for me for a bit, I''ll try using Celestial Energy." Riku nods her head, she then flew down on the bed and laid there beside Ying Mai, slowly transforming into her human form. Zhihao smiles slightly as he went towards the garden, arriving there, he sat in a cross-legged position. "Celestial Energy..." Zhihao closes his eyes and focused his attention towards the raining energy within his surrounding. Zhihao is almost meditating, but he has the system, hence, that''s the one he used; ''Enlightened Meditation mode.'' *Ding!* [Failed to use ''Enlightened Meditation mode'' due to certain reasons; -Not yet familiar with the sour of energy the host is trying to cultivate. -You have not cultivated enough amount of Celestial Energy for it to be cultivated automatically. Zhihao smacked his face; "So there''s that too huh." The host body that he got into has already familiarized himself with Spiritual Energy, hence didn''t have to do so with it. With Mana, Zhihao didn''t need to cultivate it as every living thing has mana, even environment that has growing life has it, hence, he only needs to gather them to use a skill. Now, with Celestial Energy, it will be his first time to initialize in cultivation. But for Zhihao, like what happened from the fantasy World, he started mana with a bang. Zhihao focused solely on trying to absorb the celestial energy to him. Without any teacher to tell him what to do, Zhihao tries to imitate those novel fantasies he read before. "Trying to gather the energy from the surrounding... like a vacuum..." Zhihao uttering some words, a way for him to completely focus. "A little bit more..." Zhihao spoke little words, imagining himself like a magnet trying to pull the surrounding metals. *Ding!* [Congratulations host for accomplishing ''Celestial Energy cultivation''. 1st stage Empowering Warrior.] Zhihao felt satisfied, and with a nod, he continues his cultivation. [2nd stage Empowering Warrior.] Few hours had passed. [3rd stage Empowering Warrior.] Zhihao then remembers something; ''Handsome circle skill!'' Zhihao changes the way he cultivates the Celestial Energy; ''Like a vacuum with the effects of a vortex.'' Now, the Celestial Energy going towards Zhihao became slightly distorted, not in a way Zhihao imagined it. Zhihao shooks his head; "Again." Zhihao tried multiple times for the past few hours. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "Its already night..." Zhihao spoke, he didn''t even think that he started the late afternoon. Still, Zhihao closes his eyes; "I''m not the stupid me like before..." "Creating a huge vortex of absorption..." Zhihao is dead serious about creating this method of cultivation, because, the way of his advancement is slower than those that he had thought before. "Because I am not a native of this World, I need to create my own method." Zhihao solemnly spoke. Zhihao patiently continued his work, but after a few more hours, he decided to give up for today; "Not much improvement..." After the 3rd stage of Empowering Warrior, Zhihao didn''t advance any further. "Hooo." Zhihao sighs a breathe, he then looks back as he heard a few footsteps coming his way. Zhihao smiles: "Had a good rest?" Ying Mai smiles at him; "I had a great one." Ying Mai then asks a question: "You want something to eat?" "Sure." Zhihao smiled as he nods his head. Ying Mai was about to take out some ingredients from her storage ring, but an idea pops inside her head; "I should go out to buy some ingredients." Zhihao smiled and responded with a smile. Ying Mai receiving Zhihao''s confirmation smiles back at him and took Riku in her bird-form out of the courtyard. Zhihao, left out alone didn''t know what to do, in the end, he decided to continue trying to make his own cultivation path again. Back to Ying Mai. As soon as Ying Mai arrives outside the courtyard''s walls, there are already three beautiful women greeting her. "Esteemed guest, where might you be heading to?" The one leading them spoke. Ying Mai ignores the three''s blockade and answers after passing them: "Market." "Then, we will assist you." Ying Mai shook her head: "I can manage, don''t worry." The three ladies were about to insist, but before they could, a young blond man stood in the way of Ying Mai. "You should clearly take a hint, they are, after all, here to observe your every movement." It is none other than Slanmark, his chest clearly protruding from his casual clothes as he smirks at Ying Mai looking at her body from head to toe again. Ying Mai wanted to punch this man''s face just once, but they have a plan, hence, she ignores him and continues to walk. "Hahaha, trying to play the hard to get?" Slanmark chuckles, his hand was almost about to grab ahold of Ying Mai''s arms, but before he could, he jumps a few meters away. From the position of his hands earlier, a hand completely wrapped by energy is there. "Hmmp, what do you think you''re doing? Do you think just because you''re a VIP guest that I won''t hesitate to kill you?" Slanmark remarks. Zhihao''s face is still calm, he then looks at Slanmark and spoke; "Riku, there''s been a change of plan." Riku could only sigh to the stupidity of this person. "Hmmp, you think your blue-" Slanmark was about to say something stupid, but before he could, a crimson blood red spear from the sky descends towards him. "Hahaha, you think you''re unstoppable?" Slanmark chuckles as he evades the flame spear effortlessly. "Oh?" Zhihao emotionlessly spoke. After that, he casts another one, this time, there is about ten of them. _Swish~_ The spears moved extremely fast that it sliced through the air as it made the sound. "Too slow." Slanmark evades it yet again. Zhihao then lifts his hand above his eyes once more. Another hundred flame spears appeared. At this display of power, Slanmark frowns; ''This must be his ace, he definitely can''t conjure much more than this, I only need to evade it and I can kill him easily.'' Zhihao''s hand motions into a descending one. The spears quickly pierce towards Slanmark at a very fast rate, Slanmark didn''t even have the chance to talk anymore as he evades all of them. _Tsik~ Tsik~_ Sounds of the spear making slight contact to Slanmark''s skin can be heard. "Tsk!" Slanmark couldn''t help but flicker his tongue in annoyance; "You''ll definitely regret this." After a few breaths of time, Slanmark successfully manages to evade all of the flame spears, he couldn''t help but feel proud of himself; "Is that al-" He was about to brag, but before he could, he saw something he didn''t even expect. "Try evading this then." Zhihao remarks as his hand held up high. Above Slanmark are thousands of spears. "How... How can this even be possible?!" Slanmark voiced his useless question. Zhihao''s face is slowly contorting as he sends his palm downwards; "Don''t worry, you won''t die a painless death, that, I promise." "No!" _Swish! Tsik~! Tsak! Tsak!_ Thousands of spears aimed at Slanmark can be heard as the latter tries to evade it with everything he''s got. Chapter 261: Blood Dyed Zhihao _Swishishishishew~_ The thousands of flame spears from the sky are descending by a dozen targeting Slanmark every time. Zhihao did so, he didn''t want to kill such foul creatures easily after all. "You..." Slanmark couldn''t help but remark as he continuously evades the flame spears. His skin is already full of wounds, almost turning his body into that of a skinless human being. Slanmark''s handsome face from before is already unrecognizable, Zhihao ignores his remark: "Peasant, in your next life, be sure to pick whoever you wish to challenge." When there are already almost no more skin on Slanmark, Zhihao finally decides to stop the delay. Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. "You know what''s the saddest part of being a powerful being?" Zhihao asked as he disperses the rest of the flame spears. Slanmark barely manages to stand up, his body is slowly regenerating, the skin on his body is slowly showing up too. He looks at Zhihao, trying to hold on as much as he can until his reinforcements arrive. "I don''t believe that you''ll be able to last against the whole Kingdom with the Celestial Energy stored inside your body." Slanmark coldly snorted. Hearing him, Zhihao had a bright idea, but that''s for a later date as he summons four black spears in the sky again; "The saddest part about being a powerful being... is that you can''t die fast if your enemy deems it fit for you to last longer." As soon as Zhihao finishes speaking, his hand moves again as he controls the movements of his skill. "Descend!" The four spears hovering in the sky dashes down as it aims at Slanmark, the latter didn''t even have the chance to lift his hand, the four black spears already reached their targets. Two of the spears went from Slanmark''s knees into his legs and through his feet while the other two spears struck the shoulder down to his hand, impaling him down to the ground. "GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Slanmark howls his pain out, for a cultivator, making someone extremely powerful admit defeat is already a great achievement, but for a cultivator to cry from sheer pain, that''s another thing. "Ugggh! Pffft!" Slanmark''s moaning of pain from his gritted teeth sounded, the tears on his eyes continue to run down to his cheeks and down to the ground, his nose already has blood running down from it as his mouth vomits blood continuously. "You will... never get away with this..." Slanmark spoke, pausing for a bit, he continues; "I am a high arch of the Vermillion''s Holy Order! YOU WILL PAY THIS HUMILIATION WITH YOUR LIFE!" Hearing his remarks, Zhihao couldn''t help but chuckle. Slanmark introduced himself to him last time as the captain of the royal guards, but now, he''s a High Arch of the power that he''ll be eliminating? Such a great coincidence it is. "Saves me the trouble then." Zhihao chuckles as he looks at Slanmark still thinking of what more he can do. But first off, noticing that Slanmark is trying to regenerate his body while slowly removing the black spear, Zhihao made a few tweaks with the skill. "Gyaaahoooo!" Slanmark howls yet again. Zhihao applied some brutal options within the skill, making the body of the spear have spiked as it slowly rotates inside Slanmark''s body. "Your effort astounds me, but it also saves me the trouble of thinking of ways to not kill you so fast," Zhihao spoke. Zhihao then summons another two spears, this time, it''s almost transparent, Zhihao aims at Slanmark''s left chest. "Hold it!" Like how a cliche story goes, the old man from the Vermillion''s Holy Order arrives cliche on time to prevent his subordinate for getting killed. Zhihao looks at where the voice came from and couldn''t help but chuckle: ''Another one of my targets arrives.'' "If you continue your action young child, the Passive church will be your enemy, the Passive church is a branch of the Vermillion''s Holy Order, if you know what''s good for you, you''d stop it immediately and we will forget this incident never happened!" Suryang spoke so many words at once, although there are many strong people from the Vermillion''s Holy Order, Slanmark is an irreplaceable piece. Slanmark is already at the peak of the 8th stage of Celestiality Sovereign, he''s one of the many hundreds the Vermillion''s Holy Order is expecting to surpass the strongest expert of the Bloody Divine Celestial World, Old Man Heaven Sealer. Zhihao seemingly want to play along with Suryang replies; "What if I don''t?" Suryang frowns, who in this whole World didn''t know of the power of the Vermillion''s Holy Order? Only the Perfect Continent and the Sacred Palace Continent are the only powers that they can oppose them. Suryang frowns; "Then, I will need to intervene and kill you myself." Suryang sighs then; "It is a real pity, I wish to recruit you into our Holy Order, and if you so accept, this incident will be forgotten." Zhihao then spoke: "I''d like to see you try." "STOP!" Seeing Zhihao''s hands moving downward, "Descend!" _Swo~_ Suryang flew directly towards Slanmark, but before he could even reach the latter, the transparent spear struck Slanmark in his left chest. "GWAAaaaakukhur." Slanmark howls, one of his lungs was brutally pierced, but that didn''t stop there, the spear is made out of pure wind element. "Haaaaah!" Slanmark tried to inhale as many oxygens as he can, but the wind spear Zhihao threw at his chest continuously taking away all the air within his body and throwing it out. Whenever Slanmark would faint, the spear would weaken, making Slanmark regain some senses and air before being sucked dry of air by the wind spear again, letting Slanmark live between the borders of life and death. "YOU!!!! YOU DEMON!!!" Suryan''s voice echoes as he points fingers at Zhihao. Zhihao ignores his words and spoke: "I''m not done yet, as soon as I''m done with you, I''ll slowly kill him myself again." Zhihao then looks at Slanmark one last time; "A gentleman''s dignity cannot be trampled on." After speaking like that, Zhihao moves his gaze at Suryang; "Let''s see how you plan to kill me then." Suryang''s brows crossed each other; "You definitely will!" Suryang flew down from the sky as he rushes at Zhihao; "Epileptic Palm!" Zhihao can feel its energy, its almost at the level of a peak Demi-God realm''s strength. Zhihao shook his head; "That would''ve definitely worked if I didn''t unseal my powers, too bad for you huh?" As soon as Zhihao finished speaking, he suddenly vanishes. Suryang''s eyes open widely; "Where?!" But before he could even look around, a palm suddenly enters his vision and grasped his face. Suryang could only utter; "How?" before Zhihao immediately threw him down the ground. _Bang!_ A loud noise echoes as Suryang slammed into the ground; "Ho-cough-How?!" _Bang!_ "Kuhuk!" After Suryang just finished speaking, a foot landed on his chest, Zhihao slowly moves his body down and looks at Suryang; "It''s just your luck that you didn''t do anything that can make me mad, with that, you can die quickly." "No! Wai-" Suryang was about to plea, but before he could even finish speaking his second word, a hand struck the middle of his chest directly grabbing his heart. "Kuk!" Zhihao pulled it out and immediately crushes it. The blood splatters from all direction, covering Zhihao''s front with blood. Suryang couldn''t even speak before he died, still, his better off than the one that Zhihao is looking at now. "Your turn." Slanmark saw this and couldn''t help but speak painfully; "Hhhhhee-ehllppp." Chapter 262: A Gods warning. Zhihao looks at Slanmark, his gaze unmoving as he stares directly at Slanmark''s eyes. "Pu-pleas---e, s-p--are m--e..." Slanmark spoke as his body faced up. Zhihao emotionlessly looks at Slanmark; "Since you want to be spared that much, I''ll do so after one last action." Zhihao summoned two needles sized black spear, the same as the four that stabbed Slanmark in place. "I just wish to cleanse my beautiful wife''s shame, since you will die anyway, I''ll take out the two things that shamed her." Zhihao then made the needle sized black spear, let''s call it black needles now. Slowly, these two needles hovered above Slanmark''s eyes. Zhihao pulled the spear out the almost transparent spear out of Slanmark''s chest. "Giiiiih!" Slanmark inhaled a lung full of air, although there is still a hole in his chest, at least there isn''t anything that''s forcibly pulling out the air in his body. "Tha-" Slanmark was about to thank Zhihao, he didn''t hear a word Zhihao had said earlier, hence, he thought that the latter had forgiven him, but what appeared in front of him shocked him even further. In front of Slanmark are the two black needles rotating as it hovers in the sky. "No! No! What are you-Gyaaaaah!" Slanmark couldn''t help but shout in pain. "Gwaaaa!!! GYAAAAH!!! STOP!!!" The two black needles struck Slanmark''s eyes as it started mutilating it, white liquids continuously pours of Slanmark''s eye socket. When Zhihao finally had enough, he called out his greatest weapon; "Supreme Martial God''s Blade and Sword!" Zhihao lifts his two arms up in the sky, making the white blades to each other and with a slashing motion, Zhihao''s first slashes aimed at Slanmark''s shoulder limbs. "GAAAAAAAAH!" But Zhihao didn''t stop there as he continued with the three lower limbs, with a jump, Zhihao slashed horizontally, completely removing Slanmark''s limbs out of his body. "GYAAAAAAAAH! STOP! PLEASE!" Slanmark tries to beg, but Zhihao didn''t stop as he slashes towards Slanmark''s neck and directly impales one of his swords through the middle of his chest. "Kuk!" Slanmark''s final words full of blood as his head flew out fully severed from his useless body. Zhihao looks at his two blades; "I''m still not proficient with wielding weapons..." Seeing the blood and tissues attached to the blades, Zhihao shook his head. Still, he has not much time, hence, he did something he wouldn''t have done; "Riku, I hope this plan of mine works." Without waiting for Riku''s reply, Zhihao starts to fly up in the sky, sending some of his Spiritual Energy up to the heavens as it scatters throughout the land, Zhihao starts. "To all beings of this Celestial World, I bring you both calamity and prosperity! I will annihilate the root of the problem of this World, the Vermillion''s Holy Order! After 15 days of time, it will cease to exist, starting with the Stargazer Light Kingdom''s branch, I will march myself towards their main cult!" Zhihao''s words didn''t stop there as he adds; "Those innocent souls can be forgiven and leave the cult, you only have 14days left." After speaking, Zhihao descends again down the ground, he looks at Ying Mai and spoke: "Let''s start." "Un." Seeing her husband about to work, Ying Mai immediately changes to her ''Flame Empress'' set and started walking with Zhihao towards the Kingdom''s castle. At this moment, Riku looks at Zhihao; "Zhihao, are you sure about this? I told you already, there are beings here as strong or even stronger than you." Zhihao halts for a moment, the reason why Riku wants for them to slowly purge the world of its evil, and the reason for that is... there are beings that are strong here, so strong that they fought and injured Riku while her power is at 1% Although 1% sounds so little, when Riku was at her 100%, she fought supreme titans, legions of them numbering no less than 10,000 together with her brother and sister. With a chuckle, Zhihao spoke: "I''m 100% almost sure about it. I mean, they are stronger than me, but still, I''ll definitely fight to my heart''s content!" Riku and Ying Mai didn''t laugh together with him. Ying Mai thought internally; ''I will help you relieve some of the burdens on your shoulders... definitely...'' Ying Mai made a resolute pledge inside her mind, Zhihao then continued. Zhihao made a solemn smile; "I''ll be facing enemies much stronger than them sooner or later, It might even happen today, and all I know is... They can kill me without any effort as I am right now, I must grow stronger, much stronger than me before and today!" Zhihao looks in front of him; "Riku... why didn''t they kill the Kings of each Kingdom again?" Riku sighs; "I already told you this, the rulers that were predetermined since ancient times were blessed by my power, the Celestial Energy will continuously come towards the location where the royalty resides, and the location where they are staying will simply flourish even with or without the king having any talent." "The Celestial Energy around them will be easily cultivated by others or the citizens, but the stronger the King is, the easier for the inhabitants of the Kingdom will cultivate." Zhihao now remembers, but Riku still continued; "The reason why they didn''t kill any of these rulers... simply is because there are already hundreds of other Kingdoms that was destroyed by doing so." "You mean?" Zhihao asked. Riku nods her head: "Many years ago, the Vermillion''s Holy Order started massacring the Kings of the Treasured Continent and even tried to conquer the other continent''s space, taking the kingdoms for themselves, but the longer the war goes, the weaker they get, and a few hundred years later, the Kingdoms they conquered started to crumble from a mysterious reason." "But then, there was a Kingdom that stood still, they tried to search for the reason what''s the reason, and after a few months of investigation, they found clues of a King''s royal blood living as a farmer on its outskirts." "That king was then placed back on the throne, giving him all the benefits, wives, and maids to booth, but they made another experiment." "To kill that King and place their innocent descendants as a ruler?" Zhihao became serious as he asks Riku. Riku nods her head; "Yes, and after observing for another hundred of years, the Kingdom still flourished as nothing happened, they also tried to rebuild Kingdoms with the children as the base but all of it became a failure." Zhihao nods his head; "The parasite living in your World needs to be taken care of." As soon as Zhihao''s words were finished, he looks at the Cathedral that''s two times much bigger than the castle itself; "We start now." Riku nods powerlessly; "Just don''t drag the innocents too much." "I''m not that heartless." Zhihao chuckles as he made his way there. "Blasphemy!"

A voice sounded unexpectedly, like the one that stood beside the King a yesterday howls as he points his fingers at Zhihao while it shakes violently, there are thousands of Celestiality Sovereigns behind him, his anger surges at the peak as he saw Slanmark and Suryang: "The crime of laying your hands on the servants of go-" The old man was about to finish speaking, but before he could, his body was sliced to thousands of pieces. Zhihao looks seriously at the experts behind that old man''s falling corpse: "I know it might sound harsh, but I will be cleansing this World with fire." Hearing Zhihao''s words, they all shuddered. Zhihao just killed a very powerful being of the Vermillion''s Holy Order, an 8th stage Celestiality Sovereign effortlessly. "RETREAT!!!" One of the stronger experts howls as he himself led the retreat. Zhihao looks at the experts and frown; "Did I permit you to leave?" As soon as Zhihao''s voice sounded, thousands of white transparent spears appeared in the sky. All of the experts suddenly stops at their track as they all lost their will to fight. "This..." All of them became speechless at the grand sight surrounding them. "Zhihao..." Zhihao nods his head; "Riku, don''t worry, I know." . . ... The Royal Capital of the Treasured Continent, Vermillion''s Holy Order''s headquarters, Skylight Empire. "Cardinal Sasin!!! We have an emergency!" A man wearing a pure white robe exclaims as he hurriedly rushes towards the person he''s calling and kowtowed immediately. The man who was called Cardinal Sasin looks back, he''s an old looking man clad with silver and gold robe wearing a triangular hat with a vermillion bird wrapped with black flames embedded on it. Cardinal Sasin frowns; "As a bishop of the church, you should properly show manners and etique!" The man receives his scolding as he started to sweat, still, he braves himself as he continued: "Our people from the Stargazer Light Kingdom has been reported to be slaughtered." Cardinal Sasin became shocked, his eyes widely open: "What happened?!" "About 80% of the total population of our branch there had been destroyed!" Cardinal Sasin frowns; "And what about the other 20%?" "That... They fled... saying that they would rather quit than be purged..." "Purge?!" Cardinal Sasin''s eyes grew even wider; "How dare..." He was about to cuss, but then, he remembers something; "Was it done by the one that used God''s voice?" "We think so." Cardinal Sasin frowns, trying to calm himself, he looks at the bishop; "You''ve done well, I will talk to the pope about it." "Yes, I will take my leave Cardinal." Cardinal Sasin heaves a breathe out as he continues to strive elegantly; "Hmmp! Thinking that he''s the only one that can use God''s voice? Pathetic, in our church, there are thousands that can do so!" With his arrogant demeanor, he walks towards a grand door; "Pope Tramfoi! I bring urgent news!" The one he calls Pope Tramfoi would definitely shock others, as it is a youth that looks like a 12-year-old kid. Cardinal Sasin didn''t even wait for his reply and retold the story. Pope Tramfoi chuckles: "That''s interesting, Let''s wait and see what he''ll do." Pope Tramfoi looks out as he laughs; "In less than a month? That kind of bluff will definitely be effective for our believers... Isn''t that right? Holy Maiden?" Pope Tramfoi looks back, a beautiful blond woman starts walking out of the shadow; "It definitely is amazing Pope, but I hope that the killing of our believers will be spared from his evil massacre." Pope Tramfoi chuckles: "I hope so too, I truly hope so. Right, Cardinal Sasin?" Cardinal Sasin also chuckles: "Of course, Pope Tramfoi is a kind and generous pope after all." "Long live the Pope!" Cardinal Sasin chuckles. Holy Maiden also added: "Long live the Pope!" After Tramfoi spoke, he grins evily as he looks outside the window. Zooming out from his window, a very grand cathedral can be seen, almost reaching the Skies, the castle only looks like a normal house as it stood in front of the Cathedral. Such sight would definitely know, who the real owner of the Treasured Continent is. Chapter 263: Res Three days after Zhihao started his conquest. "Cardinal, our branch in the Moonlit Void Kingdom has been completely destroyed!" "Pope, the branch in the Sulmariun Kingdom has been annihilated!" "Pope! The Church Frontier has completely vanished!" "Cardinals, the Holy Crusade that''s dispatched to invade the Perfect Continent has suddenly disappeared from its track without any traces!" "Could... could it be that voice?!" One of the church''s apprentice exclaims. Hearing this, all of the people that came to report halts their movement abruptly. A dark silence covered the whole of the church as all of these believers felt that there is something wrong. ''Why is someone that powerful going against the church?'' ''Had the church really angered a great existence?'' ''Is this the judgment of the real God of our World?'' All sorts of thoughts entered the believers'' mind, and just at this moment, the Pope stood up. "Do not fret, as this will be the real trial of the Church, people with less faith to our Vermillion Goddess will definitely choose to leave, but those that believe the church will stay, removing the weak-willed ones and will bring us great rewards!" The pope spoke, claiming something seriously weird. But the pope didn''t stop there as he continued; "Do not forget, the Vermillion Goddess has blessed us with already a great being, the Holy Maiden!" All of their eyes shone brightly as they looked at the Holy Chamber where the maiden resides, and yes, after just a few seconds, the door slowly opens. A figure not much taller than an average woman, her silver hair flutters with the passing wind with a black headband, she''s wearing a silver dress with black adornments with her shoulders and silky white long legs are shown, on her hand is a silver and black staff that looks like a Queen''s crown on the edge of it. Seeing the holy maiden up close, their eyes gleamed with passion. "Holy Maiden!" "It really is the Holy Maiden!" "I must''ve been blind, to think that I was even thinking of leaving the church! I deserve punishment!" "Me too!" "Holy Maiden!" Cheers from all direction of the hall sounded, the holy maiden made her way down and continued to walk gracefully towards the veranda of the church. They are currently on the 15th floor of the church... well, it definitely looks like a City, but for now, it will be called the Holy Vermillion Citadel. The Holy Maiden stood at the edge of the Veranda as she looks at the people busily moving, doing their daily work. "People of the Skylight Empire, hear me, your Holy Maiden!" From down below, people have faces full of worry and uneasiness, they couldn''t take off their mind from the news they kept receiving from the merchants. But as the voice of the Holy Maiden sounded, all of their unease suddenly halts as they looked at the Church''s grand veranda. "The..." "The Holy Maiden!" One... two... four... ten... cheers started to be heard and more and more people started joining them. At this moment, the Holy Maiden spoke once more: "Please ease yourselves, for I know that this event is merely a trial for the believers, and those that believe our Vermillion God will be blessed!" After speaking like that, the Holy Maiden removed her veil revealing a very alluring face, if Zhihao is here, he would definitely know who''s face this belongs to. "Holy Maiden!" "Please punish us! We had been blinded!" But the Holy Maiden didn''t stop there, her lips parted gracefully as her voice lets out; "I will lead a force to destroy our enemy, pray to our God that he may give us strength for the upcoming battle!" "That..." Find authorized novels in Webnovel£¬faster updates, better experience£¬Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting. The citizens felt weak; "Holy Maiden, you should stay here where it is the safest!" "Yes, let us believers do the fight instead!" "Yeah!" The holy maiden shook her head: "Too many bloods had already been spilled, I will end this disaster once and for all! Please pray for us!" After the Holy Maiden spoke, she slowly steps back and entered the grand hall. The people felt disheartened, but remembering the Holy Maiden''s words, all of them kneeled on the ground, whether it is a child or an adult, all of them prayed dearly. Sadly for them, the God they are worshipping is a female, not a male, through time, it had been completely forgotten, and she''s also living in a different World, much farther than theirs. A futile effort indeed. When the Holy Maiden made her way to the Grand Hall, all of the people there have their eyes wide open. "Holy Maiden! What kind of thing are you planning?!" "It is a really dangerous task, I beseech you to take back your plan!" "Holy Maiden, let us do the deed instead!" The Holy Maiden was about to speak, but before she could, the pope stood up. "Let the holy maiden do her duties, as one of the greatest powers of our church, she can definitely finish this opponent." His words reverberated throughout the grand hall, everyone became silent. The pope then added; "But don''t worry, two cardinals will aid her with her conquest!" His words caused everyone to feel relief! But the pope''s words didn''t stop there; "Also, a massive number of our Archbishops and bishops will join the Holy Maiden''s just cause, together with thousands of our elite soldiers!" "The World is filled with uncertain events, if this ''Sole'' expert is waiting for an ambush with a large army, our Holy Maiden will definitely be in peril, hence, this will be another Holy Crusade! Once the Holy Maiden finishes her duties, she will continue with conquering the Angel Continent!" The Pope''s words were clearly heard, it is like the problem in front of them are merely an easy one and will immediately be passed through and will continue with the other mission. "Long live the pope!" "Long live the church!" "Long live the Holy Maiden!" All of the people started cheering as they prepared for what''s to come, meanwhile, the Pope sat on his chair and with a very mysterious grin, he drank the wine from his glass. ''This will definitely be entertaining.'' . . ... Meanwhile, from the other side of the Treasured Continent. The main culprit for the Vermillion''s Holy Order''s is currently resting peacefully in one of the Cities of a provincial location of the Treasured Continent at the edge of its borders, residing in a villa close to the ocean. "You should wear this." Zhihao took out an item out of his interspatial ring as he handed it over to Ying Mai. "This is... Isn''t it like... I''m not wearing anything at all?" "Not really, and nobody is really out here, we''ve vacated the whole area for ourselves." Zhihao chuckles as he continues to urge Ying Mai to wear it. "This..." Ying Mai for the first time felt a little rejected for Zhihao''s ideals, nevertheless, she took the two pieces of clothes from Zhihao''s hand and quickly tried to wear it. "No, that one''s not for your butt, that''s for the chest." "That''s not a hat..." After a while, Ying Mai finishes dressing, Zhihao chuckles as he looks at Ying Mai''s appearance and couldn''t help but utter; "Perfection." Ying Mai hearing this couldn''t help but have her face redden. Zhihao then looks at Riku; "Are you sure it is here?" Riku nods her head; "Yeah, it is one of the ten treasures of this World, and a strong deity is guarding it." Zhihao nods his head, changing from his robe to swimming trunks. Zhihao looks at Ying Mai with a smile; "We need to match the environment we will be going to, after all, we can''t really have you wearing a flaming robe under the sea can we now?" As he finishes speaking, Zhihao ran towards the Ocean and immediately dives in, Ying Mai sighs as she also followed him, she was practically embarrassed as she was expecting something else, really. But Ying Mai didn''t do what Zhihao did, summong the Celestial Energy around her and casually formed a round protective area, making the water not being able to approach her. Seeing this, Zhihao couldn''t help but utter; "Kill joy... Hmp!" Still, after uttering that, he also thought that this journey would definitely be long, hence, summoned his own protective barrier.
