Chapter 321: The Supreme Treasure Is

"Master, what is wrong?"

Yusu noticed Xu Ling's unusual behavior.

"Nothing... nothing at all." A complex expression flashed in Lin Chao's eyes.

The threat of the Gate Organization was right before them.

The sounds from the Cangyi were growing heavier.

Lin Chao knew that when the Gate Organization's Supreme Treasure was deployed into the Tianfang Small Thousand World, he had to act as Yusu's master had instructed.

"You and Xiao Jing can take a look at the Jade Slip your master gave you." Regarding this matter, Lin Chao decided to leave the choice to the two of them.

"Alright." Yusu had an ominous premonition in her heart as she took the Jade Slip.

Xu Xiaojing also took the Jade Slip, and both of their divine senses probed into it.

At first, the two frowned, and later, their brows furrowed even deeper.

"How could it be like this!" Xu Xiaojing's tone rose.

Yusu looked at Lin Chao, her heart filled with many questions.

She had already used the Cangyi to sever the energy-blood martial path.

As a result...

Do the Innate Gods from endless ages ago still exist in this world?

Once the Gate Organization's Supreme Treasure casts its gaze upon the Ancient War World.

Then, given the tyrannical nature of the Gate Organization, the Ancient War World will undoubtedly perish.

Moreover, it might even implicate the Tianfang Small Thousand World.

A Small Thousand World might very well be reduced to ashes.

The only way to break the deadlock is for a supreme powerhouse to cultivate the technique left by the master on the Jade Slip, hiding the entire Ancient War World within the Void to drift through it.

Only in this way can they avoid being discovered by the Gate Organization.

If this happens, the coordinates of the Ancient War World will become uncertain.

The cultivators of the Tianfang Small Thousand World will then be unable to come to the Ancient War World again.

"I..." A complex expression flashed in Yusu's eyes.

If the Innate Gods are still around, as a successor disciple of the Yuanshi Sect, she cannot leave with the Ancient War World.

After all, the origin of this world is essentially ancient.

And she, being a successor disciple of the Yuanshi Sect, would easily expose the coordinates if she continued to stay in the Ancient War World, attracting the Gate Organization.

It can be said that the fact that the Gate Organization's Supreme Treasure is patrolling the Tianfang Small Thousand World this time actually has a lot to do with her being a disciple of the Yuanshi Sect.

Moreover, she and the Innate Gods... are, to a certain extent, in an opposing position.

Now it seems that Master Xu Ling and those Innate Gods have a very deep connection.

A feeling of guilt spread.

"Master... I'm sorry." Yusu lowered her head.

Back then, she severed the Qi-Blood Martial Dao, cutting off Master's future path in Martial Arts.

Now it seems she also cut off those Innate Gods.

She finally understood why Master had such strong power.

Perhaps Master is an awakened Innate God.

"It's fine." Lin Chao did not mind; he looked at Yusu, "There must be many people in the Ancient War World who do not wish to leave.

I will tell some people about this matter, and I will give them the right to leave.

If they choose to stay, Yusu... I will trouble you to look after them."

Lin Chao also knew that Yusu could not follow them when they left.

Lin Chao did not care about most of the living beings in the Ancient War World.

But he would still inform those he was familiar with.

Either follow the world as it leaves to drift in the Void, or stay in the Tianfang Small Thousand World.

"Mm." Yusu nodded.

She naturally had no problem with these small requests from Master.

"Uncle... I..." Xu Xiaojing looked full of sorrow; she glanced at Yusu, then at Xu Ling, her eyes filled with reluctance, and finally, she made up her mind, her gaze resolute, "Sister Yusu, I'm sorry, I want to leave with Uncle."

Sister Yusu still has her master.

However, Uncle perhaps only has her as an acquaintance.

"Please take good care of Master for me." A forced smile appeared on Yusu's face.

In truth, she was the one who wanted to stay by Xu Ling's side.

A smile appeared in Lin Chao's eyes: "Xiao Jing, you should stay with Sister Yusu.

I am used to wandering alone; besides cultivating, there is only more cultivating."

Lin Chao's gaze was gentle, yet his expression was very firm.

"Only when you are with Yusu and have a companion can I be at ease."

He had long been accustomed to being accompanied by loneliness.

Moreover, drifting in the Void holds endless dangers.

Most importantly, one day he will leave this world and return to his original world.

If that happens, perhaps only Xiao Jing would be left here, and he did not wish to see such a thing.

"But..." Xu Xiaojing wanted to say something, an anxious expression appearing on her face.

"Be good." Lin Chao's tone was gentle.

Just as in the past, he was coaxing the young Xiao Jing.

There was a pool of spring water in Xiao Jing's eyes, and in the end, she could only lower her head: "Okay."

She had always listened to her uncle's words.

"Then Uncle... if things are stable, remember to come back and find me." Expectation filled Xu Xiaojing's eyes, "I will always wait for Uncle."

Perhaps the meaning of parting is for the sake of the next reunion.

The harder it is to part, the more joyful the reunion.

As Xu Xiaojing spoke, a resolute expression appeared on her face.

A drop of Essence Blood flowed from between her fingers and hung in the air.

"With this drop of blood, in the future, Uncle will be able to find the Tianfang Small Thousand World through it."

Xu Xiaojing used her own Essence Blood to give Lin Chao a coordinate location.

Generally, except for their closest kin, cultivators rarely give their own Essence Blood to others.

With the strength of an Immortal Cultivator, don't underestimate a single drop of Essence Blood; through it, one could completely manipulate the owner of the blood.

Yusu, however, did not leave behind any Essence Blood.

Her traces needed to be separated from the Ancient War World.

Otherwise, it would increase the Gate Organization's attention toward the Ancient War World.

"Okay." Lin Chao did not refuse and accepted that drop of blood.

In his eyes, there was also a look of loss.

At this moment, Lin Chao began to observe the cultivation technique left behind by Yusu's master.

A look of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

Yusu's master seemed to know a great deal.

"Yusu, what kind of person is your master?" Lin Chao asked.

Yusu was slightly stunned.

Immediately, she also understood Xu Ling's meaning.

The Jade Slip left by her master contained too much information.

In the Tianfang Small Thousand World, perhaps even an Immortal Emperor would not know these things.

Moreover, the technique left in the Jade Slip was truly extraordinary.

An Immortal Lord might be able to destroy the living beings of a world.

By attacking for an uncountable amount of time, one could slowly destroy a world.

However, to take a world and escape into the Void, wandering within the Void—this is not something an ordinary technique can achieve.

"My master is named Wendi Immortal Lord, and she comes from..." Yusu said slowly.

Wendi?

Lin Chao was slightly stunned.

He was very familiar with this name.

However, he did not interrupt Yusu and continued to listen.

Only by learning more information could he make a judgment.

The guess in his heart might not necessarily be true.

"The Martial Emperor Seven-Section Sword, as well as the matter of me searching for the Wu Kingdom—did you tell your master?" Lin Chao inquired.

"Yes." Yusu nodded.

"Did your master have any reaction?"

"No." Yusu shook her head.

Lin Chao felt helpless.

It seemed his guess was false.

This Wendi should not be the Wendi he was looking for.

There are so many people in the world with the same name; how could there be so many coincidences?

Yusu stood to the side, some confusion in her eyes: "Master, what is wrong?"

She felt that Xu Ling's reaction was very strange.

It was as if he was unusually interested in her master.

"Nothing." Lin Chao cast aside the melancholy caused by thinking of an old friend.

However, thinking of something, Lin Chao still asked: "Has your master come now? She gifted me the Jade Slip; for such a great kindness, I must thank her in person."

"Master did not come; she returned to the Tianfang Alliance." Yusu answered truthfully.

"What a pity." Lin Chao sighed, "By the way, have you ever seen the true face of Wendi Immortal Lord?"

"I have..." Yusu hesitated for a moment; she felt strange in her heart, but still waved her hand.

In the air, the figure of a woman with a peerlessly beautiful face suddenly appeared.

This woman was lively and elegant, yet completely unfamiliar.

Lin Chao shook his head.

The woman before him was not the same person as Wendi.

"I thought your master was an old friend of mine, which is why I asked." Lin Chao sighed, "Unfortunately, I overthought it."

"So that is how it is." The confusion in Yusu's heart was resolved.

The old friend Master spoke of was not as simple as an ordinary old friend.

In the Void.

The Gold-like giant opened his eyes.

Within his eyes, they were filled with the feeling of the Dao being heartless.

"Wendi, you have come."

Wendi Immortal Lord, dressed in colorful silk robes, looked at the Gold giant: "Greetings, Immortal Emperor."

"For what reason have you come?" The Gold giant was, shockingly, that supreme being of the Tianfang Alliance.

"Immortal Emperor, Xu Ling of the Ancient War World... has an old connection with me; I hope the Immortal Emperor can spare his life.

Inside this Jade Slip, the True Dragon Technique is stored."

Wendi Immortal Lord spoke, her voice neither humble nor arrogant.

The Immortal Emperor was rather interested in the True Dragon Technique, which was why Wendi used it as a gift.

A flash of strange light crossed the Gold giant's eyes: "Xu Ling Slayed the general; if I do not Slay him, it will be hard to convince the masses.

However, since you, Wendi, are pleading for him, I can spare his life.

But after he is captured, he must serve under my command for one hundred thousand years to atone for his sins."

"Very well." Wendi Immortal Lord nodded, "Many thanks, Immortal Emperor."

She presented the Jade Slip, and her figure vanished.

At the corners of her mouth, a look of helplessness appeared.

Husband... this is all I can do for you.

If I can drag out some time, my husband will have a little more time.

Meanwhile, the Gold giant held the Jade Slip, a look of joy flashing in his eyes.

He had long coveted the True Dragon Technique.

However, Wendi Immortal Lord's origins were mysterious, and he did not dare to force her.

Now, he had not expected to actually obtain it.

"Immortal Emperor, do you really intend to spare that Xu Ling's life?"

Just then, an aged voice rang out.

The joy on the Immortal Emperor's face faded, and a trace of wariness grew in his heart.

The person who had come was the Main God of the Evil God Alliance, and also his mortal enemy.

"If he is unwilling to serve me for one hundred thousand years, I will naturally suppress and Slay him." There was killing intent in the Immortal Emperor's eyes.

His word was final.

However, if Xu Ling was unwilling to be a servant and he Slayed him, Wendi Immortal Lord surely would have nothing to say.

"That Supreme Treasure is perhaps on that Xu Ling." The Main God's voice was incomparably old.

Endless ages ago, he was not yet Ninth Tier.

He had once seen that woman who could not be looked upon directly from afar, and had kept it in his heart ever since.

That woman seemed to have left behind a Supreme Treasure.

He was determined to obtain it.

"Therefore... he must die even more." The Immortal Emperor's tone was calm.

Three days later.

Lin Chao finished practicing the cultivation technique from the Jade Slip left by Wendi Immortal Lord.

The thumping sound within the Cangyi grew louder and louder.

The gaze of the Gate Organization was about to be cast upon this world.

Perhaps in the next second, the Ancient War World would be exposed to the Gate Organization.

At this moment, Lin Chao looked at Yusu on the Flying Boat, a smile on his face: "Xiao Jing, Yusu, farewell."

On the Flying Boat, besides Xiao Jing and Yusu, there were also some people from Zhonglian Country.

Lin Chao had informed some acquaintances about the general news.

However, most people chose to stay.

Cheng Yang, Huang Hun, Zhuge Anran, and others whom Lin Chao knew all chose to stay.

However, there were also those who left.

But Lin Chao did not know most of those people.

For instance, one of them was a friend of Zhuge Anran's uncle.

In the room, Yusu looked at Lin Chao, her eyes filled with reluctance.

"Master."

She hugged Lin Chao.

After this parting, she did not know when they would meet again.

Lin Chao reached out his hand and held Yusu.

He did not like parting, nor did he want to see the scene of parting.

Once the Dharma Boat left, he would have to take the Ancient War World and begin to wander.

"I will wait for you in Tianfang." Yusu had a thousand words in her heart, but in the end, they only turned into this one sentence.

"Mm."

"Xu Ling..."

Yusu's gaze became resolute; she grew bold again, not calling him Master, but calling Xu Ling's name.

Immediately after, a gentle touch washed over him.

Lin Chao exerted a slight force, pulling Yusu closer.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew past, Yusu's kiss became more forceful, and her breathing grew somewhat hurried.

For some reason, a strange feeling suddenly arose in Lin Chao's heart.

The Yusu in his arms was somewhat different from the Yusu he knew.

Perhaps it was because of the parting that her emotions were exceptionally intense, and thus she was exceptionally bold.

"Master, I..." Yusu raised her head, pushing out her chest, her eyes like a pool of spring Water, within which there seemed to be an inexplicable emotion.

Beside them, Xu Xiaojing was nowhere to be seen.

Yusu reached out her hands, fumbling about blindly.

Her dress slipped off, standing tall and graceful, like the moon, like snow, like infatuation, like a dream.

She sat in Lin Chao's lap.

"Master..."

Yusu cradled Lin Chao's face, a trace of complex emotion surging in her eyes.

"Husband, I want to take a good look at you..."

For some reason, she seemed even more passionate and even more clingy.

Compared to just a moment ago, she seemed like a completely different person.

Wendi Immortal Lord stood within the Void, the flush on her face fading away.

Following that was an endless loneliness.

However, she had already grown accustomed to such loneliness.

A single tear slid down from Wendi Immortal Lord's eyes.

"Husband... you are still the same as before..."

Wendi Immortal Lord sank into endless nostalgia.

Suddenly, within the Ancient War World, a ray of colorful light that no one could see flew up and landed steadily in Wendi Immortal Lord's hand.

That was a tear.

Wendi Immortal Lord looked at this tear, the expression on her face freezing.

She cradled that tear, and the voices of two women rang in her ears.

"Did you find him?"

"... No, he seems to have truly fallen."

"Impossible, how could he... He said he would always... How could he break his promise."

I clearly already returned all my emotions to you, why do you still... it cannot stop him."

"I did not expect that the one who traded with me back then was him."

I also did not expect that what he took from me... was given to you."

"I... am leaving, I want to go find him."

"You will die, your spirit will dissipate just like his."

"We have the Three Lives Seal... if he is alive, I... perhaps have a glimmer of a chance to meet him."

"If the True Spirit dissipates, the Three Lives Seal will have no effect."

"If he dies... I will go."

"Why bother?"

Sigh, is this your emotion?"
