Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

After Ji Chen left, Xu Zhangqing buried that Life and Death Sword Orchid seed into the Fifth-Grade Spirit Field.

The instant the seed entered the soil, all the spirit plants around it tilted slightly to one side in unspoken unison.

One couldn't tell if they were avoiding it, or fearing it, or perhaps both.

Just a single seed was like this; once it matures, one can only imagine.

However, this also indirectly proved the Life and Death Sword Orchid's grade; it was inevitably higher than all those rare, precious, ancient and various other spirit plants surrounding it.

You have to understand, any spirit plant that can be planted in a Fifth-Grade Spirit Field is absolutely no ordinary object.

Placed outside, any single one would surely cause a huge sensation, even inciting countless people to fight over it.

The price of just any single plant starts at at least millions of Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

"Quite interesting."

Seeing this situation, Xu Zhangqing saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but smile.

A seed carrying Sword Intent like the Life and Death Sword Orchid is indeed rarely seen in all the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms.

For Senior Brother Ji to find it, he must have spent no small amount of time, and even paid a certain price.

Of course, as long as these spirit plants don't attack each other and no damage occurs, it's fine.

Having done all this, his figure flickered, and he returned directly to the Bamboo Hut.

……

……

Inside the Bamboo Hut, Xu Zhangqing calmed his mind.

The current situation was becoming increasingly complex.

First is the Chaos Sea.

The last place Jun Wu Huo appeared was right at the center of the Chaos Sea.

At the moment the Universe Tide finally erupted, he seized a gap and escaped from inside.

As a result, because his whole body was entangled with the Red-Clothed Lord's power of twisted karma, he was directly erased from time by the Dao Zun.

You have to know, this was a genius among geniuses, a monster among monsters.

If nothing had gone wrong, he would certainly have become the next Zhen Yuanzi, or even stronger.

But it also proves that the situation in the Chaos Sea has already become dangerous to a certain degree.

Ping'an going there inevitably contains a certain risk.

However, Xu Zhangqing turned the thought over and then set his mind at ease.

Zhen Yuanzi is guarding the Chaos Sea; what is his cultivation, what is his strength?

In the entire Beidou Xianfu, those who can surpass him are only the Dao Zun, the Nine Extremes Heavenly King, and the commanders of the Patrol Heaven Division and the Star Guard Army, the Qixing Star Lord.

Besides them, those Elders in seclusion probably aren't a match for him a single one.

Therefore, with Zhen Yuanzi there, even if Ping'an encounters danger, he won't be without a backhand.

"If it really comes to it, I'll find a pretext to ask Master for leave!"

"As long as the reason is legitimate, Master won't necessarily stop me!"

"After all, that is my own flesh and blood!"

It's just that when to bring up this pretext and how to bring it up still requires waiting for a suitable opportunity.

And then there is the situation of the two Senior Brothers.

It is very obvious, Jun Wu Huo is a pity.

Master struck without leaving any leeway, directly erasing the person from time.

Such means mean the other party doesn't even have a chance at reincarnation.

You have to know, even the residual consciousness of the Lord of the Creation Dao could at least hibernate in the Creation Green Lotus for tens of thousands of years.

As for Yin Wuji, that's another matter.

Although his Soul Lamp shattered, the Creation Mirror reflected the scene of that Living Star.

This shows that this person is still alive.

It's just that a place like a Living Star is truly strange to the extreme.

Vegetation grows wildly, withers, and covers over again at a speed visible to the naked eye; the Wood Attribute Laws are completely in a state of loss of control.

To be able to survive in this kind of environment.

Either Yin Wuji himself has some special means.

Or his current situation is extremely delicate.

Xu Zhangqing, looking thoughtful: "Senior Brother Ji is a Sword Cultivator, which happens to counter this kind of problem.

One can only hope that Senior Brother Ji and Senior Brother Yin both stay safe.

Otherwise, the Beidou Xianfu will lose another pillar."

At this moment, Mu Ning slipped out from the Shen Guo again: "I heard everything you guys just said."

Xu Zhangqing recovered from his thoughts and glanced at her, shaking his head: "You heard it, so what?"

Mu Ning tilted her head looking at him: "The world outside the Tianyuan Realm is way too dangerous, right?

One Senior Brother was erased from time by your Master, another Senior Brother is suspected to be trapped inside a planet that keeps growing non-stop.

Not to mention, there's also the infiltration by the Lord of Red Garments.

Xu Changqing heard this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "And then?"

Mu Ning propped her chin, revealing an expression of serious contemplation, then reached a conclusion: "I suddenly feel that staying in the Tianyuan Realm is actually pretty good.

It's a bit boring, but at least there isn't so much danger."

Xu Changqing was stunned for a moment, then said helplessly: "How about I swap you and Hua Lao?"

Mu Ning grinned, smiling as she leaned in two steps: "That's not necessary. This young lady finally got out; how could I go back so quickly.

But Junior Brother, what do you plan to do next?

Listening to that Sword Cultivator, the Chaos Sea is extremely dangerous, and the Endless Star Domain has problems too.

Your Xu Family both cultivates Lingti and runs a Chamber of Commerce; the business in the Endless Star Domain is so big, Sui Hang has already gone cross-star domain.

You... aren't worried something will happen?"

As these words fell, Xu Changqing fell silent for a while, then replied: "I don't care."

Mu Ning was surprised: "You don't care?"

"Business, fine!"

"Industry, whatever!"

"Even the family's future..."

Xu Changqing's attitude appeared somewhat cold: "I don't care about any of it!"

Mu Ning blanked for a moment, didn't expect he would answer like this, a bit unexpected: "I thought you would be very worried~"

Xu Changqing shrugged: "As long as I'm still alive, as long as the Floating World Four Domains still exist, even if the Xu Family loses all its assets today, tomorrow it can rise again just the same."

This sentence revealed the confidence in his heart.

Coming from himself, and also coming from the Dao Venerate.

Although, the situation outside is indeed becoming increasingly dangerous.

But with the Dao Venerate, the Myriad Worlds True Lord, and such Rulers present, there's no need to worry too much.

After all, they absolutely cannot just watch their "foundation" be destroyed.

Mu Ning blinked, asking curiously: "What if... what if people die?"

Xu Changqing's attitude remained cold: "Senior Sister, I'll speak the truth.

Actually, Junior Brother's feelings for those descendants were never that deep to begin with.

They respect me, fear me, but rarely does anyone understand me.

Therefore, at most I'll keep the clan from scattering, ensure they lack no glory or wealth.

But anything more than that, I can't give, and don't intend to give!"

He had long since discovered that after losing Ruo Qunshuang and Bei Qingtang, that bond with his family had become increasingly faint.

When it comes down to it, these people will all die before him; caring too much would only waste feelings.

Towards this answer, Mu Ning seemed to half-understand.

Actually, she had also witnessed many life-and-death separations.

With many times, she got used to it, even became indifferent to it.

"Then what do you prepare to do next?"

"The Lord of Red Garments' infiltration is getting more and more severe; other places are unclear, but the Floating World Four Domains will eventually need more powerful methods to repair!"

"So you're not anxious?"

"The one who should be anxious isn't me, but others!"

"Then you'll just wait dryly like this?"

"Anyway, I have all the time in the world!"
