Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1628: Worries

Inside the beast space, Ancient Leiyu Tianlu was enjoying his time. The flow of time there was much faster than in the outside world, even though the quality and quantity of qi within it were not as good as in the Ancient Realm.

However, the presence of Ancient Leiyu Tianlu made all the beasts in it, such as Lan Zhen, You Bai, Hu Yi, Hu Er, Jui Shui, Lei Que, Hai Ma, and Tianguo, feel pressured. Even Long Jishan, who was a thunder dragon, felt pressured by his aura, as did Sha Huoyan and Shou Yunzhi.

Ancient Leiyu Tianlu looked at all the beasts, but he couldn’t care about them, and he was more focused on recovering from his injuries. ’Sigh! How is my master’s situation now? Our contract is still intact, so I know that he is still alive. However, those shadowy creatures are too strong, and they will probably succeed in destroying all the barriers in the Puyang Clan one day. If that happens, my master and the others will die in their hands. I wanted to bring Zhang Fei there, but his strength was still not enough to help them.’

On the third floor of the Tower of Eternity. Lu Wangyi, Ju Jushen, and Dugu Yuanshen wanted to question Zhang Fei, but they immediately gave up their intention. They saw him, and the other cultivators were sent to the next challenge.

”What exactly happened to that young man? Why did his demeanor and expression change after his clone went to the Forbidden Land?” Dugu Yuanshen asked the other two.

Ju Jushen sighed. ”I don’t know what happened to him there, but I hope he won’t dwell on his problems. This universe needs him, and peace will never return without him.”

”What do you mean by that, Senior Ju?”

”Your human races are unaware of the writings about him, but both the natural race and the beast race are familiar with them.” Dugu Yuanshen looked at Lu Wangyi. ”One day in the future, the ten-tailed fox will return to this universe once again. He is more than a heavenly fox; he is also a human and a demon. He is the one who will bring peace to all races. At that time, the reincarnations of the ancestors of all races will join him and fight by his side.”

Dugu Yuanshen was shocked to hear that. ”Where did that writing come from, Senior Lu?”

”The former ten-tailed fox wrote all that down before he disappeared.” Lu Wangyi looked at him. ”You don’t need to ask about him because Ju Jushen and I don’t know him, but that writing has been passed down from generation to generation in the natural and beast races, and almost everyone from both races has been waiting for the fulfillment of that writing.”

”I see.” Dugu Yuanshen nodded slightly. ”And that young man is the person referred to in that writing, right?”

”Yes.” Lu Wangyi and Ju Jushen nodded. ”Zhang Fei is human, but he is also a heavenly fox and lust demon as written by the ten-tailed fox.”

”Phew,” Dugu Yuanshen exhaled softly. ”Even though I didn’t know about it before, I know that young man is truly extraordinary. He can reach the Celestial Emperor Realm in less than a hundred years, which is an incredible achievement, and no other cultivator has ever been able to do so before him.”

Lu Wangyi nodded at him. ”Even though Zhang Fei is a dual cultivator, no other dual cultivator can match him because his cultivation speed is simply too absurd.”

”Yes,” Dugu Yuanshen replied with a slight nod. ”I know several dual cultivators, and one of them has over fifty partners. His cultivation speed is incredible, but it’s still not as fast as that young man.”

”Haha,” Ju Jushen laughed. ”I don’t know how Zhang Fei can have such a monstrous cultivation speed, but I think it’s good for this universe. If he becomes strong faster and surpasses all the senior cultivators like us, the safety and peace of the universe will be guaranteed, and all living creatures in it will live in peace.”

Dugu Yuanshen agreed with him. ”However, Senior Ju, the appearance of those shadowy creatures was beyond everyone’s expectations, and that young man said they were far stronger than us. For now, they only appear in the Ancient Realm, but they might invade this Paradise Realm in the future.”

”That’s true.” Ju Jushen and Lu Wangyi turned serious.

”I don’t know what we can do to deal with those shadowy creatures, but we can’t just wait idly by, and we must prepare many countermeasures against them.”

”No matter what happens in the future, I must prepare my giant race members to face those shadowy creatures. Even if their strength surpasses ours, we will give them a tough fight if they invade our domain.”

”After I return to my domain, I will also prepare the members of my druid race to face those shadowy creatures. Even if we have to die, we cannot die without giving them a fight.”

Dugu Yuanshen looked at the two people in front of him and thought about some things. ”I don’t know what that young man is planning, but I will order the members of my War God Pavilion to prepare themselves after we return from this tower, and we might fight together against those shadowy creatures in the future. After all, the safety and peace of this universe are not only that young man’s responsibility; all of us as its inhabitants are also responsible for them.”

”That’s right.”

Three days passed quickly.

For the past three days, Zhang Fei didn’t say anything to everyone on the third floor, and he was completely focused on going through all the challenges there.

Liang Huizhong and all the elders of the Divine Samsara Sect had already reached the third floor, and their attention was focused on Zhang Fei, who was standing alone in front of the stone gate in thought. However, Yue Ningxue warned them not to do anything because they didn’t know his true strength and his relationship with all the cultivators on the third floor.

Some people from the War God Pavilion had also reached the third floor, such as Dugu Xuanye and Ru Feiyan, who were also Dugu Yuanshen’s direct disciples. The two people immediately went to their master and Dugu Liangsen’s side.

Ju Jushen, Lu Wangyi, Qing Qiu’er, You Feiling, Jian Kuang, Su Shentian, and Zhuxian Sheng gathered around Zhang Fei’s group to protect his women such as Helian Xun’er, Nalan Wangzi, and Luo Yunxiao.

Tianshi Shengjie joined Long Wuzhao’s entourage, and she informed them about several things, including Zhang Fei’s change in attitude. However, she did not tell them about Feng Yao’s identity as the embodiment of the core of their universe.

Yue Xuelian sat a little apart from them, and she repeatedly looked towards the gate, waiting for the people from the Celestial Moon Sect. However, many of them had already failed and left the tower, and she ordered them to return to the Twin Flames Domain.

Zhang Fei didn’t care much about the presence of the people from the Divine Samsara Sect, and he was determined to eliminate them if they attacked him. He felt incredibly nauseous when he touched the stone gate, but he endured it and thought whether he should open it or not.

Zhang Fei had always been confident in his abilities and strength, but he lacked the confidence to fight those shadowy creatures. He knew they were truly powerful, and his strength wouldn’t be able to match theirs even if he borrowed the power of all the beasts in the beast space.

Luo Yunxiao approached Zhang Fei and hugged him from behind. ”Husband, I know you’ve been thinking about those shadowy creatures, but you’ve been like this for the past four days. Even though they haven’t said anything to you, everyone is worried about you.”

”Sigh.” Zhang Fei sighed deeply and turned to face her. ”I’m really worried that those shadowy creatures will invade this Paradise Realm, Yunxiao. I have always been confident in everything I have, but I lose my confidence when I think about them. If they invade this realm, they will definitely look for me, and our domain will face great danger. I always think that I don’t care about the fate of other people, but I can’t just ignore them, and I’m afraid that I can’t protect them from those creatures.”

Luo Yunxiao looked at him. ”Don’t you have two spaces? If those shadowy creatures invade this realm and come to our domain looking for you, you can hide in one of them, right? If you don’t want to bring them to the training space, you can put them in the yin-yang space. If you don’t want them to know about your two spaces, you can send them into your soul world. My master and Senior Jia Xianzu have worked hard in the past few years to help you with your soul world, and I think that place is ready to be used to hide our people.”

”Yeah.” Zhang Fei nodded before looking at the people. ”My soul world is indeed habitable now, but the quality and quantity of qi there is still inferior to this paradise realm. Besides, I won’t be bringing everyone there, and I’ll only bring those who have good relationships with us. As for those unrelated people, I won’t save them, and they will have to think for themselves how to survive if those shadowy creatures invade this realm.”

Luo Yunxiao naturally understood her husband’s wishes, and she didn’t want to interfere with his decision. ”So, do you still want to continue the challenge in this tower?”
