Chapter 1417: They’re Doing Well

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“They’re doing very well. Nothing bad has happened to them.”

Zixia Fairy had put Duan Jiude in a time-out to reflect on the error of his ways, and then she responded to Xu Que’s questions.

Xu Que was completely surprised.

“Xiao Rou and the others are doing well and are okay?

“This is a little puzzling. Since they’re doing well and nothing bad has happened, then why do you still look worried?”

Although there was no denying that no matter what expression Zixia Fairy wore, she still looked so good.

She’d also clearly said just now that she was going to bring Xiao Rou and the others over here. Yet her expression was still so serious. It was difficult not to wonder what was going on.

Zixia Fairy continued speaking, “Xiao Rou is having a hard time learning. It’s going to be difficult for her to develop her Ancient Five Elemental Arts body if she stays in the Four Great Continents. However, in the Celestial Cloud Continent, she will certainly flower and shine. Her future would be unlimited.”

“The Celestial Cloud Continent?”

Xu Que stared blankly. It was the first time he had heard of this place.

Zixia Fairy wasn’t surprised by Xu Que’s questions. She said calmly, “It’s normal that you don’t know about the Celestial Cloud Continent. It’s very far away. When the past dynasties of the Mighty Sect’s ancestors opened up a channel to the Celestial Cloud Continent, they saw a vast heaven and earth. So they decided to arrange the migration of factions. Then, in the middle of the journey, an accident happened, and the Mighty Sect suffered great casualties. In the end, I had to stay.”

“What happened?” Xu Que asked curiously. It was something that was interesting and about which he’d heard nothing.

Zixia Fairy just shook her head and said softly, “It was only minor clashes with other factions. In the end, though, it caused a major disaster. Best not to mention it. What I want to tell you now is something to do with Xiao Rou.”

“All right, go ahead,” Xu Que said and nodded. He didn’t pursue the matter. After all, it had little to do with him, and currently the most critical matter was indeed Xiao Rou’s situation.

“When I first unlocked the shackles of the Four Great Continents, the South Continent’s Mystery Land was also unsealed, and the channel was reactivated. I had once promised my ancestors that I would bring over the South Continent’s Mystery Land. But I didn’t expect that when the channel was opened, the entire Mystery Land would be sent over, so at that time it was too late to bring the other people out...”

Zixia Fairy began to tell the story of what had happened.

She had unlocked the shackles and restarted the Mighty Sect’s channel to the Celestial Cloud Continent, but, the moment the channel opened, the entire Mystery Land was transferred right away.

As a result, when she reached the Celestial Cloud Continent, she found that the place, which contained tens of thousands of clans, was ruled by a Celestial King, and the whole continent had been divided and controlled by four Celestial Emperors.

Zixia Fairy and the others dwelled in a corner of the Yongzhen Celestial Realm in the Celestial Cloud Continent. That area was a Celestial Realm under the control of one who was named Celestial Emperor Yongzhen. The human tribes and the Demonic Beast clans coexisted but lived distinctly separated.

The first batch of people from the Mighty Sect that had gone over had already suffered countless casualties. Only a few of their descendants were left to preserve the sect, and they struggled on at death’s door under the protection of a second-rate power.

Zixia Fairy obviously did not anticipate that this was going to happen.

It also surprised Xu Que.

“There’s actually a Celestial Emperor in a never-heard-of-before Celestial Cloud Continent. Wouldn’t that place be more powerful than the Heaven Continent?” Xu Que asked in astonishment.

“Have you been to the Heaven Continent?” Zixia Fairy also looked at Xu Que in amazement and then she nodded, “If you’ve been to the Heaven Continent, then you should know the existence of the Starry Sky List.”

“The Starry Sky List...” Xu Que nodded. He had indeed heard of the Starry Sky List. He’d heard of it from Buttface and Duan Jiude. But he hadn’t had the chance to access it when he went to the Heaven Continent.

It was said that in the Heaven Continent, the Starry Sky List was a measure of strength and held more authority than the Heavenly Tripod List.

“The Starry Sky List was written in the Celestial Cloud Continent. The force dedicated to controlling it also spread to the Heaven Continent. But a certain unforeseen event happened in the Heaven Continent a long time ago, no one knows what, and it has been sealed. Outsiders cannot enter, and the people inside also cannot come out.”

When Zixia Fairy had gotten to this point, she said, “But recently those seals have begun to loosen. If there are no surprises, very soon, the Heaven Continent will be opened.”

“Wait a moment, then what you’re saying is that the Celestial Cloud Continent is not far from the Heaven Continent?” Xu Que asked.

He thought of something. Someone had once said that the Heaven Continent was bigger than people knew. There was also a vast heaven and earth in the outer part of the Heaven Continent, but no one could get out of it.

Zixia Fairy’s words instantly cleared this up for Xu Que. The Heaven Continent was likely only partially sealed. The real continent was far bigger than the Heaven Continent.

“That’s right. The Heaven Continent and the Celestial Cloud Continent are indeed not far apart, but unable to face each other. Only the force that controls the Starry Sky List can get information from the Heaven Continent cultivators to carry out the rankings. But I don’t know how they do it,” Zixia Fairy added.

“That’s what it is,” Xu Que said excitedly and looked serious while he sighed to himself.

Having rushed up to the Celestial Stage of the Great All-Embracing Heaven after much difficulty, he didn’t even have time to Act Tough before he found out that the existence of all kinds of Celestial Emperors and Celestial Kings were in the Heaven Continent’s surroundings. It was simply too exhausting.

After this Zixia Fairy also went back to the main topic.

Her arrival had soon attracted the attention of countless forces.

Amid the mingling of good and evil in the corner of the region where they were, a variety of leaders from the second- and third-rate forces all had eyes on Zixia Fairy and were astonished by her appearance and manners.

However, Madam Ya, Su Yun Lan, and the others, together with the 3,000-strong Snow City troops led by Situ Hai Tang, all became an inconvenience at that time.

There were even many people who were also lusting after the beauty of Madam Ya, Su Yun Lan, and the others.

Although there were many beautiful women in the world, most of the women with outstanding appearances had corresponding powerful backers or guardians. The sudden appearance of such exceptional women in that corner in the area, coupled with their amazing backgrounds, made it difficult for people not to have designs on them.

Consequently, Zixia Fairy had to step in, undo her own seal, and eradicate dozens of Golden Celestial cultivators, as well as several Taiyi Celestials to intimidate the crowd for a while so as to get a brief period of stability.

But in this way, the forces behind those who were killed also began a death feud with Zixia Fairy and the others. Countless strongmen began to watch them closely. A major disaster was in the making.

“We went through a bloodbath. Initially, I thought we were going to die there, but Xiao Rou woke up from her seclusion state and got us out of danger.”

When Zixia Fairy got to this point, she still didn’t have any expression on her face. But it could be discerned from her tone that she still had fury in her heart.

Later, she recounted the state of Xiao Rou’s awakening. It was extremely powerful. Her Ancient Five Elemental Arts body triggered an anomaly in the heavens and earth. Multicolored lights descended from the sky. Even Immortal Phoenixes, Genuine Dragons, and other illusions shuttled back and forth through the sky, as if to welcome the awakening of Xiao Rou.

Such an anomaly also shocked the crowd present. Xiao Rou became everyone’s focus.

“And what happened after?”

Xu Que looked a little pained.

He felt despondent inside. The fact that Xiao Rou’s awakening could have such a strong force was in large part due to the transformation in the system. It was a matter to be happy about.

But it just so happened that so many people witnessed her awakening, which was probably not a good thing!

“Then something unexpected happened. The people didn’t plan to let us go, but the troops and attendants of the Celestial Emperor Yongzhen appeared,” Zixia Fairy said.

“The troops and attendants of the Celestial Emperor Yongzhen?” Xu Que was struck dumb.

It was not good news that the Celestial Emperor had his eye on Xiao Rou!

“Rest assured, Celestial Emperor Yongzhen was only interested in her aptitude and wanted to train her. And she’s doing very well now. Thanks to this, some of your female confidantes were included and got lucky. They have received protection and a lot of cultivation resources.”

Speaking of which, Zixia Fairy’s lips quivered slightly, and she continued, “But...there seemed to be a problem with Xiao Rou’s soul. She cannot remember the past and also doesn’t remember your existence.”
