Chapter 2126 - 2224: Jiuyou’s Past (Part 1)
Ten days later.
Imperial Academy.
In front of the Array Gate.
"Nishang, I’m leaving." Su Chen held Tailing Nishang in his arms and kissed her forehead. "When I establish myself in the Grand Cosmos World, I’ll bring you all over."
"Mm, master, be careful." Tailing Nishang’s beautiful eyes were filled with reluctance.
The next moment.
Su Chen stepped directly into the Array Gate.
As for the Array Gate’s scale, it had long been pointing towards the Jiuyou Domain.
As for the Iceflame Vermilion Bird, it was also following Su Chen, but it was hidden, and no one could see it.
"Grand Cosmos World, I, Su Chen, have arrived." As the Array Gate slowly began to glow and operate, Su Chen murmured to himself, a hint of anticipation appearing on his face.
Then followed a sensation of weightlessness, complete weightlessness.
In front, a patch of blackness, endless darkness, unable to see the end.
"The Imperial Academy’s Array Gate is the lowest-grade Array Gate, so the teleportation speed is not fast. And the Jiuyou Domain is very far from the Imperial Academy. Therefore, it takes about three days to reach the Jiuyou Domain." Someone spoke up.
"Is the Jiuyou Domain within the Four Clouds Sector?"
"No, the Grand Cosmos World has many cloud regions, and the Four Clouds Sector is just a small one. The Jiuyou Domain is located in the Lightning Cloud System, which is a somewhat stronger cloud region than the Four Clouds Sector. The Lightning Cloud System possesses second-class forces, while the strongest force within the Four Clouds Sector is just third-grade forces."
"What about the Jiuyou Domain itself? What rank is it?"
"Millions of years ago, when I was the Territory Master, the Jiuyou Domain was a sixth-rank power, and it was also near the top among sixth-rate strengths. Now, after millions of years, no one knows what rank it belongs to."
"Let’s talk about your maid!" Su Chen thought for a moment, then spoke again. He wasn’t cultivating but wanted to understand more about the Jiuyou Domain through Jiuyou, to know one’s enemy, and be triumphant in every battle, wasn’t that right?
Although Su Chen wasn’t one to belittle himself, he wasn’t a person to be overly arrogant either.
The Grand Cosmos World is not a Minor Thousand Worlds!!!
I need to be more serious.
"Her name is Yuaan Yu, although she betrayed me, I have to admit, her talent for martial cultivation, scheming, intelligence, and so on, are all top-notch. Back when, millions of years ago, I was in the Realm of Returning to Truth, and she, about the same age as me, was also in the Realm of Returning to Truth. You must know, I was Imperial Father’s most cherished daughter, so I received many martial cultivation resources, just barely matching her realm. You can imagine her talent for martial cultivation. Furthermore, her ability to handle situations was incredibly strong. Back then, I didn’t like managing the Jiuyou Domain, only cared for leisure, and all affairs were handled by Yuaan Yu, who managed them in an orderly manner." Jiuyou spoke slowly.
Clearly, Yuaan Yu is her enemy.
An enemy she hated deeply.
Yet Jiuyou spoke of Yuaan Yu with faint admiration.
Maybe only after many years, through countless experiences of life and death, did Jiuyou realize how exceptional Yuaan Yu was.
"In fact, I really disliked managing the Jiuyou Domain, even more so being shackled there. Back then, if Yuaan Yu had told me she wanted to advance, to become Territory Master of Jiuyou Domain, I would have agreed without hesitation. She didn’t need to betray or sneak attack me at all." Jiuyou suddenly became emotionally agitated, and then her voice grew cold: "If it was just betrayal and sneak attacking me, perhaps I could find reasons, considering what she had done for me, to lessen the hatred towards her. But she should never have been so ruthless!!! Back then, after she sneak attacked and betrayed me, she not only obliterated my physical body but also extracted my Divine Soul, using the Nineteen Heavens and Earth Extinguishing Formation to grind my Divine Soul, attempting to annihilate it, leaving no chance for reincarnation. If not for some special encounters I had..."
Su Chen listened quietly.
Almost understood.
Back then, Jiuyou was just an innocent little princess.
While Yuaan Yu, strong in strength, talented, smart, with everything going for her.
But she didn’t have the good fortune of Jiuyou’s birth.
Jiuyou treated Yuaan Yu as the closest person to her.
Yet Yuaan Yu, whether out of jealousy or unwillingness, bore hatred towards Jiuyou.
In the end, she dealt a death blow to Jiuyou.
The kind that chills the heart.
"Yuaan Yu, deserves to die." Su Chen thought to himself, harboring intense killing intent.
Su Chen understood Yuaan Yu’s resentment.
Yet Yuaan Yu was too ungrateful.
Too ruthless.
Indeed deserves death!
"In fact, if I wanted revenge, I just needed to go back to the Saint Emperor’s Court. Report these matters to Imperial Father, then Yuaan Yu would unquestionably die, and the Jiuyou Domain would return to being mine. But I can’t do that, otherwise, I would disappoint Imperial Father and the entire Saint Emperor Court, losing the chance to compete for Court Master, losing the qualification, my mother would then..." Jiuyou continued, murmuring distractedly.
Su Chen kept it in mind.
The Saint Emperor’s Court?
This should be the power where Jiuyou’s race belongs.
Should be incredibly strong.
Just being bestowed with territory by Jiuyou can be a sixth-rank top power, you can imagine.
"Young boy Su, I seemed to have spoken too much. Don’t think about the Saint Emperor’s Court for now, it is a first-class force, very distant from you at present." Jiuyou regretted emotionally, revealing Saint Emperor’s Court, knowing Su Chen’s personality, according to Su Chen’s nature, Su Chen wouldn’t stand by regarding her matters at the Saint Emperor’s Court, certainly facing it together with her, which would undoubtedly be a pressure for Su Chen.
"Mm, I know." Su Chen responded, knowing that for now, first-class forces are indeed too far for him, thinking about it only adds worry.
In the following time.
Jiuyou spoke a lot with Su Chen.
Perhaps finally returning to the Jiuyou Domain, finally confronting Yuaan Yu.
So her emotions fluctuated greatly, occasionally speaking with Su Chen.
In a flash.
Three days passed.
"We’re about to arrive. If I remember correctly, when entering the Jiuyou Domain through the Array Gate, we first enter Nine Nether Gate. Nine Nether Gate is the location of Jiuyou Domain’s Array Gate. At every moment, a column of Jiuyou Domain’s guards protects and verifies martial cultivators coming from other planes." Jiuyou spoke.
Su Chen nodded, finding it very reasonable.
After all, if martial cultivators arrive from other planes, what if they’re enemies? What if they have ulterior motives? And so on...
Verification is naturally necessary.
Otherwise, allowing entry carelessly could pose a threat to the Jiuyou Domain.
Jiuyou had just finished speaking.
Suddenly.
A dizzying spin.
Like suddenly crashing into an enormous mountain.
Leaving one bewildered.
Su Chen instinctively took a deep breath, the first breath filled with a strangely rich and violent flow of Spiritual Energy, entering his nose.
The Spiritual Energy is dense, being about ten times that of Traceless Heaven.
