Chapter 788

~7 min read 1,223 words

Just when everyone thought that everything was over after Xiao Li rode the Pixiu into the strange world suspected to be the "Immortal Realm," no one expected that at the very last moment, a stream of light would fly out from the passage.

Was it something left behind specifically by that mysterious girl?

Many were filled with curiosity and looked toward the stream of light.

The stream of light flew straight toward Xiao Yu and finally landed in her hands. As the light dissipated, the crowd, who had been watching intently, discovered that it was a beautiful necklace emitting a brilliant glow, containing an indigo liquid, looking from afar like an incredibly dazzling gemstone.

"This is... the Goddess's Tear?!"

After seeing clearly what was in Xiao Yu's hand, Yu Jun was the first to come to his senses and identify the origin of the object.

"How could the Goddess's Tear be with her?" Yu Jun was very curious and immediately looked at Xiao Yu.

Because if he remembered correctly, he had given the Goddess's Tear to Xiao Yu before they came.

So, had something happened that he did not know about?

Feeling her grandfather's gaze, as well as the Goddess's Tear that had flown from the sky into her hand, Xiao Yu knew that the matter had been exposed. With a face full of guilt, she said to her grandfather, "Grandfather, I'm sorry, I lied!"

"When we arrived at Loulan earlier, the Goddess's Tear disappeared from me. I thought I had accidentally lost it, and because I was afraid you would blame me, I deliberately hid it from you and didn't tell you about it..."

Knowing the reason for the matter, Yu Jun prepared to reprimand Xiao Yu, but the words stopped at his lips. He finally sighed: "Xiao Yu, oh Xiao Yu, what should I say about you?"

If her grandfather had scolded her directly, it might have been easier for Xiao Yu to bear.

Seeing her grandfather's hesitant expression, Xiao Yu felt even more uncomfortable.

Immediately after, she heard her grandfather say: "However, all in all, the result is good!"

"Now, I probably know who that person was earlier!"

Yu Jun thought of what Xiao Li had said to him earlier, and his heart felt relieved and relaxed.

So, the other party was actually the incarnation of the Goddess's Tear.

The Goddess's Tear was a tear shed by the Nine-Heaven Xuan Nu in the past out of pity for all living beings. She was the personification of the Goddess's Tear, which in a roundabout way made her the incarnation of the Nine-Heaven Xuan Nu.

Her words could be equated to the words of the Xuan Nu.

Xiao Li's recognition of their Shi Lan tribe was, in a roundabout way, the Xuan Nu's recognition of the Shi Lan tribe.

After knowing Xiao Li's true identity, Yu Jun felt even more relaxed.

Of course, in this process, he could not help but think of the words Xiao Li had said at the end.

He had guessed correctly; Xiao Yu had a special constitution and was a person in the current world who could carry the power of the Goddess's Tear.

'However... should I get closer to that person?'

Yu Jun's gaze darted back and forth between his granddaughter and Su Xuan not far away.

Although the thought of making Su Xuan lower his generation felt very satisfying, as a grandfather, he really could not bring himself to do such a thing.

'Let's take it one step at a time!'

Yu Jun thought to himself.

Su Xuan spent a long time before he could temporarily seal the "Immortal Spiritual Qi" he had absorbed into his body.

Upon seeing the passage opened by the Pixiu, he, like everyone else, felt the pure Qi emanating from it.

Because of the difference in his cultivation techniques, he discovered the difference in the pure Qi at the first moment. This was Qi of a higher quality than the Heaven and Earth Qi of the current world, which could be called 'Immortal Spiritual Qi'. Therefore, Su Xuan also doubted whether that world was truly the Immortal Realm.

However, regardless of whether it was or not, at least he had no intention of breaking into the other world.

In the final analysis, it was because he did not have enough confidence in his own strength.

If the other world were truly the Immortal Realm, although he could be called invincible in this world with his strength, it might not be the case in the other world. If he were unlucky, he might be killed by someone as a stowaway the moment he entered.

Therefore, one should not be overly ambitious.

Su Xuan felt it was better to be prudent.

The matter of Did Chi You this time had taught him a lesson.

He had never guarded against how powerful Did Chi You would be after holding the sword in his hand. If Su Xuan had not learned a part of the art of bringing the dead back to life, he would have already died at Did Chi You's hands the moment that sword was swung down. No, one could not say dead; he still had the path of possessing another person's body with his soul, but that would be no different from becoming a stray dog.

Without rashly breaking into another world, Su Xuan was confident that he could still cultivate to become an immortal in this world.

That was how he thought before.

Now, it was even more so.

Especially earlier, after the passage to that world was opened by the well-connected Pixiu, Su Xuan had extracted a large pile of "Immortal Spiritual Qi". Even though the passage did not last very long, the essence of this "Immortal Spiritual Qi" was extremely high, far exceeding the scarce Heaven and Earth power of this world. With them, after returning to seclude himself and digest them completely, Su Xuan was confident that he could raise his strength to an extreme, and merging his Yin Spirit and Yang Spirit to achieve a true Primordial Spirit might not be a difficult task.

He slowly opened his eyes.

Su Xuan first looked at the members of the Yin-Yang School and ordered: "Go and collect the corpse of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi. After all, he is the former Sect Master of our Yin-Yang School. Even if he committed a grave mistake, it is only right to take him back for burial!"

Several members of the Yin-Yang School nodded, and in the end, it was Yun Yun Zhongjun who went to collect the corpse of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

The Eastern Emperor Taiyi was possessed by Did Chi You and later had his body cut into two by Su Xuan's sword. Only after Did Chi You's soul lost its vessel was it sealed by Su Xuan.

Yun Yun Zhongjun came before his remaining corpse and looked at the body broken into two pieces. He could not help but think of the time when the Eastern Emperor Taiyi was the Sect Master of the Yin-Yang School. At that time, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi resided in the Taiwei Purple Palace, sitting on a high platform, wearing a mask. Every member of the Yin-Yang School had to harbor awe and reverence when meeting him, respecting him like a god.
