Chapter 249: We Promised to Be Single Together...

Night God Realm, Eternal Night Palace.

“Whisper, you’ll be my disciple in the future. Later, I’ll let your Senior Sister Zi Wan bring you to familiarize you with our Eternal Night Palace!” The Evernight Heavenly Venerable said with a smile as he sat on the white jade lotus throne.

“Thank you, Master!” Night Whisper kowtowed respectfully, feeling extremely excited.

She did not expect to become the Night God Realm Master’s disciple one day.

The Evernight Heavenly Venerable was one of the immortals worshiped by the Night God Palace.

This period of time was like a dream to Night Whisper. The Great Dao inscriptions had brought her a great fortune, allowing her cultivation to break through to the Immortal Spirit Realm directly. Her cultivation was still rapidly improving.

Then, he was brought to the Night God Realm and became the disciple of the Evernight Heavenly Venerable.

“Zi Wan, bring your junior sister along!” said the Evernight Heavenly Venerable.

“Yes!” A woman beside the hall bowed and replied before leaving with Night Whisper.

“Tian Tong!” The Evernight Heavenly Venerable looked at a man with a jade-like face, narrow eyes, and a third eye on his glabella.

“Master!” The man called Tian Tong stepped forward and cupped his hands.

“I’ll leave the search for the Sons of Destiny to you. The Night God Palaces of the various worlds are already on the move. Our Night Underworld Army has already headed to the various worlds. You can contact General Ye Feng later. I’ve already instructed him!” said the Evernight Heavenly Venerable.

“Understood!” Tian Tong received the order and left the hall.

“Master, are the Sons of Destiny really related to the God Realm?” The woman with the black veil—Tian Shu—asked.

She had heard a lot about the Sons of Destiny during this period of time and knew that the various worlds were fighting over them.

“Yes, the Great Dao inscriptions contain the secret to opening the door to the God Realm!” said the Evernight Heavenly Venerable.

“You should know that there’s another mysterious place in the Chaotic Star Domain besides the Ancient Road to Heaven, right?”

“Unknown Door,” replied Tian Shu.

It was a mysterious door that seemed to have been born with the world and existed since ancient times.

No one knew how it appeared or why it existed, nor did anyone know what it was.

However, that door had always been called the Door of Everlasting Life and the Door of the God Realm.

It was said that the door was connected to the ancient God Realm. There were also rumors that it was the only way to truly transcend the reincarnation of heaven and earth.

“That’s right!” The Evernight Heavenly Venerable nodded. “These Sons of Destiny should be the key to opening that door. To be precise, those Great Dao inscriptions!”

Tian Shu nodded. “Do we need to find all the children of heaven?”

“No, but the more we find, the greater the chance of solving the secret!” Heavenly Venerable Evernight said in a low voice.

“Of course, the secret of the Ancient Road to Heaven is equally important. Therefore, my master hopes that you can become the one who steps into the sky this time!” the Evernight Heavenly Venerable added.

“I will do my best to fulfill my mission!” Tian Shu bowed.

There was a limit to entering the Ancient Road to Heaven. The laws of heaven and earth there were extremely strange, and no living being over 500 years old could enter.

Furthermore, the older one was, the greater the boundary power they would have to withstand there. Therefore, those who could enter were all young elites.

However, countless years had passed, and no one had truly reached the end of the ancient path to see what was at the end.

…

After staying in the Qingyun Sect for three days, Wang Yi was already enjoying himself. The more he understood the Qingyun Sect, the more he marveled at its extraordinariness.

Furthermore, when Wang Yi found out that the owner of Nuwa’s bloodline was only an inner sect disciple from the Immortal Realm, he was shocked.

Wang Yi felt more at ease.

“Sect Master, this is the birthday invitation sent by the City Lord of Phoenix Cry City!” Gu Yuqi held an invitation made of spirit jade.

The Phoenix Cry Ancient City was one of the three ancient cities in the Great Zenith Immortal Realm and once belonged to the Primordial Dao Holy Land.

It had already become a subordinate faction under the Qingyun Sect. Last year, the Phoenix Cry Ancient City had also consecrated a lot of wealth to the Qingyun Sect.

Furthermore, as Phoenix Cry Ancient City guarded the border between the Zenith Immortal Realm and the Endless Sea, it provided many precious seafood for the Qingyun Sect. Many of them were Li Yu’s favorite seafood.

The City Lord of Phoenix Cry City, Xie Fengchen, was a highly respected person. He was already 800 years old. Although his cultivation could not compare to the various Holy Lords, his prestige was not inferior to them.

After all, the Xie family had always guarded the border of the Endless Sea for the human race and resisted the endless sea demons. They could be considered a meritorious clan.

In the past, when the Xie family had a grand ceremony or Xie Fengchen’s hundredth birthday, the various Holy Lords of the Great Zenith Domain would give him face.

Out of courtesy, the Xie family sent an invitation to the Qingyun Sect.

Of course, it was Li Yu’s decision to go or not!

“Help me send an immortal artifact as a congratulatory gift!” Li Yu said casually.

“Sect Master, it’s not appropriate for me to go, right? They want to invite you. Moreover, I heard that in order to entertain you, City Lord Xie specially sent his family’s elites to the depths of the Endless Sea to capture a Spirit Kraken. Although this Spirit Kraken can’t compare to a real Kun, it’s said that the meat is especially delicious, even better than dragon meat…” Gu Yuqi tried his best to use the few words in his mind to touch Li Yu’s taste buds.

However, Li Yu was unmoved. He looked at Gu Yuqi meaningfully and smiled. “You make it sound like you’ve eaten it before!”

“Hehe, I-I’ve heard about it. Don’t you want to have a taste?” Gu Yuqi asked.

Li Yu nodded. Gu Yuqi was overjoyed and thought that he had succeeded. However, he heard Li Yu say, “It just so happens that you’re going to Phoenix Cry City this time. Also, go to the Endless Sea and catch a few for me. If you can’t catch them, you don’t have to come back!”

“Sect Master, um, you can make a trip there. I’ll accompany you. Let’s go to the Endless Sea to catch them alive and roast them for dinner. They’re fresh!” Gu Yuqi racked his brains to persuade him.

“No!” Li Yu deliberately made things difficult for Gu Yuqi.

“My good senior brother, I beg you. I’ve already promised Miss Wanyu that I would invite you over to give City Lord Xie a surprise. If I can’t even do this, how embarrassing would that be!” Gu Yuqi pleaded with a long face.

“Hmph, you’re finally willing to speak the truth!” Li Yu rolled his eyes at Gu Yuqi. He had long guessed this fellow’s thoughts. He was deliberately making things difficult for him to speak the truth.

As the saying went, after eating and drinking to their heart’s content, his junior brothers and sisters were already complacent.

They had agreed to be single together, but everyone had a girl they loved.

Previously, when Gu Yuqi went to Phoenix Cry City to help the Xie family army rule the demons of the Endless Sea, he fell in love with City Lord Xie’s youngest daughter, Xie Wanyu, at first sight.

That was why he had tried so hard to persuade him to attend Xie Fengchen’s birthday banquet. It seemed like he wanted to use him as a gift to please the girl.

Li Yu only wanted to say, ‘What a good brother!’

“Senior Brother, please help me this time. There won’t be a next time. I’ll do anything you ask in the future!” Gu Yuqi was about to kneel down. That pleading look was really…

“Sigh, women are indeed a burden!” Li Yu felt that it was better to be single and carefree.

He could sleep wherever he wanted.

How nice was that?!

“Sigh, I’ll reluctantly make the trip for your sake, but only this time. Also… is the Spirit Kraken you mentioned true?”

“Yes, yes, yes. It’s true. Wanyu told me herself that it was specially prepared for you!”

“Then let’s go. What are we waiting for?”

…

In the endless deep space of the unknown star domain, a ray of light flashed past at high speed. However, it was not a meteor but a hunched figure.

“Old Demon Futu, you can’t escape!” As a voice spread through magic power, a few more figures caught up.

The hunched figure snorted. “You’re really a lingering ghost!”

The stooped figure was a ferocious and ugly old man emitting a bloody aura. He was a Saint Realm expert from the Fallen God Palace of the Netherworld Immortal Realm, Old Demon Futu.

Not long ago, he had just seized the Great Dao inscription from the body of a Son of Destiny in the Martial Star Realm. He did not expect to encounter someone from the Qin family.

There was also a Saint in the Qin family. He was not afraid of him in terms of cultivation and strength.

However, he had just extracted that kid’s Great Dao inscription, and he had expended too much energy. Coupled with the fact that the Qin family’s Saint actually possessed a sword Qi that sealed the sword intent of a Holy King, he could not do anything.

He had been caught off guard and severely injured. Therefore, he could only choose to escape now. Otherwise, he would definitely die if he continued to waste time.

Old Demon Futu thought, ‘Damn it, looks like I can only use that forbidden technique to escape. Otherwise, I’m afraid I’ll really die in the hands of these guys!’

Before he finished his sentence, he took out an ancient talisman and used his blood essence and soul as a guide to activate it.

In an instant, the surrounding space twisted, forming a strange vortex that enveloped him before disappearing.
