Chapter 1349

After several months of travel, Lu Yang finally piloted the black-canopied boat back to the Cultivation Realm, taking more than twice as long as the journey from the Cultivation Realm to Blue Star.

Xia He had never been to space before; the weightlessness and close-up views of the sun, moon, and stars—such an experience was rare indeed. Bai Shuang had ridden a spaceship, but none gave the fresh feeling that the black-canopied boat did.

So they spent a long time on the way.

Lu Yang could understand this feeling, after all, he had also played in space for a long time back then.

Moreover, along the way they encountered many minor troubles: wormholes suddenly appeared, transporting them to unknown regions of the universe, where they rescued a silicon-based life civilization, became gods in a tiny kingdom, met an orphan of the giant race, slew several space monsters, and then the colossal monster formed by the monsters' fusion, before finding their way back and smoothly returning to the Cultivation Realm.

"There are so many kinds of life in the universe." After the trip, Xia He and Bai Shuang broadened their horizons—these were scenes they had only seen in sci-fi films, yet they had personally experienced them all.

Lu Yang muttered to himself inwardly: the Star Alliance and the Candle Heaven Civilization, two mighty cosmic civilizations, had never seen so many strange cosmic races—how did he encounter them all on just one trip out?

"Pretty normal, really. When I traveled the universe, I often ran into these things; I'm used to it by now." Lu Yang said it lightly, and from his tone, one could easily imagine how rich his past experiences had been—these were merely travel anecdotes to him.

"Is that so? Then why didn't you tell us about these things before?" Xia He raised an eyebrow, sharply detecting the loophole.

Lu Yang coughed twice violently, covering his embarrassment: "I've been through too many things; if I talk too much, I'm afraid you'll get bored listening."

"Is that so?" Xia He looked at Lu Yang with a half-smile, as if she had seen through his lie.

"Really, when have I ever lied to you?"

Not saying that would have been better, but hearing Lu Yang say that, Xia He exploded: "How few times have you lied to me? You told me the streets were safe, then lured me into the streets as bait, and zombies swarmed out—when they saw me, it was like seeing the cafeteria open for meals!"

"And you said you went to join the Corpse King Tournament, and after becoming Corpse King you'd come back soon, so I guarded the safe zone for you—was that soon? You didn't show up for such a long time, and I thought something had happened to you out there!"

"And another time you..."

"Enough, enough!" hearing Xia He list his shameless deeds one by one, Lu Yang hurriedly said, his old face turning red.

Bai Shuang stood nearby, head lowered, listening silently, daring not to speak—back when Lu Yang did those things, she had watched the whole time for amusement.

"Wow, we've reached the Cultivation Realm, we're home!" the Immortal Eternal Maiden shouted exaggeratedly, seizing the moment to interrupt Xia He's scolding.

Lu Yang felt greatly grateful—he hadn't expected the Immortal Eternal Maiden to be so reliable at times.

This sentence indeed caught Xia He's attention; she looked up and saw the immeasurably vast Cultivation Realm, her heart skipping a beat.

Even after hearing Lu Yang describe how magnificent the Cultivation Realm was, how tiny planets seemed before it, nothing compared to seeing it with one's own eyes.

"This is the Cultivation Realm..."

At the entrance to the Cultivation Realm, cosmic ships came and went in an endless stream—all from other planets, all civilizations intensely curious about the Cultivation Realm. A random blogger coming to film a video here would get terrifyingly high click counts, with followers skyrocketing.

As for business cooperation, needless to say—the Cultivation Realm is a treasure countless merchant tycoons fight over to get a slice of, the only problem being that when those tycoons see the Cultivation Realm demonstrate turning stone to gold, they all go dumbfounded.

Nowadays, traveling through space is no longer exclusive to cultivators of the Fusion Stage and above; even low-stage cultivators and ordinary mortals can take spaceships to tour other planets.

The black-canopied boat entered the Cultivation Realm, and its strange structure made Xia He's head spin for a moment, but she quickly adapted.

Lu Yang activated the black-canopied boat, returning to the Question Dao Sect.

At the bamboo grove entrance of the Question Dao Sect, two figures and an iron box sat by the river playing games.

"Jump, jump!"

"Don't rush, don't rush."

Only a click was heard—the game console was broken apart.

The Primordial Daoist innocently looked at the River Spirit: "See, it's all your fault for rushing."

The River Spirit blew his beard and glared: "Can I blame you for rushing? You've died how many times on this level!"

The Primordial Daoist threw the broken game console into the river, and the River Spirit also jumped in.

Not long after, mist rose from the river surface, and the River Spirit slowly rose, two game consoles appearing in his palms, expression gentle: "Primordial Daoist, did you drop this broken game console, or this intact one?"

"The broken game console."

"What an honest child—then this broken game console is yours."

"Hey, shouldn't you give me the good game console instead!" the Primordial Daoist exclaimed, flustered,

The River Spirit couldn't hear the Primordial Daoist's words, patting the ether computer beside him: "Let's play a round, the two of us."

Just then, the River Spirit raised his head and sensed Bai Shuang's aura.

"What's wrong?" the ether computer asked, puzzled.

"Where did this brat Lu Yang go off to again, and why did he bring another Primordial Spirit?"

"Huh? Are Primordial Spirits really that common?" the ether computer, having once boasted upon hearing Primordial Spirits were rare, now looked and saw they weren't so few after all.

"Anyway, not as rare as Lu Yang."

……

On Tianmen Peak, Yun Mengmeng had just baked a tray of flower cakes, letting Qing He taste them.

Since Lu Yang's last seclusion before closing his cultivation, Qing He had disappeared, only reappearing today—and there was a reason.

"Little He, you mean the mother-and-child river of our secret realm was built by the Big Boss?"

"Yes." Qing He said firmly, she had searched all over the Great River South and North for the lost mother-and-child river, visited countless ancient sites and secret realms, finally found clues to the mother-and-child river, and then discovered it was Yun Mengmeng's hometown.

Yun Mengmeng, after hearing this, felt dazed, unable to sort out the relationships; she let Qing He sort it, but Qing He also couldn't sort it out.

"Forget it, don't think about it—knowing you're closer to the Big Boss is enough." Yun Mengmeng never made things hard for herself; if she couldn't figure something out, no matter how much she thought, she still couldn't understand—better to enjoy life with that energy.

"We're back!" Lu Yang climbed Tianmen Peak, laughing as he greeted Yun Mengmeng and Qing He.

"Second Chief, you're back—why did you bring a woman!" Yun Mengmeng froze for a moment; in storybooks, usually this behavior is called "pressing the mountain lady"?

Lu Yang had a black line across his head: "Mengmeng sister, you should read more books."

"This is what I learned from reading books!" Yun Mengmeng declared righteously—if she didn't read books, could she understand this much knowledge?

"Big Mother, you're back!"

Xia He looked dubiously at the panicked Immortal Eternal Maiden: "Immortal Elder, your child is this big already?"

Should one say it's no wonder she's an ancient immortal—thousands, tens of thousands of years old and still shows no age?

"I'm not, I don't have, she's talking nonsense!"
