Chapter 15

Xia Lihua flew to the spot where the Ancestors gathered. She descended from the sky. Her appearance caused some relief for Wu Long, Zhang Chao, and the other Northern Continent Ancestors. They had been waiting for her for two days, and although two days were not considered long for them, they couldnt help but worry.

Lihua.

Guardian Xia.

Wu Long and the others greeted.

How did everything go?

Xia Lihua threw a ring over to Wu Long who spoke. When Ji Xian gave the ring to her, he mentioned a few pills that he made specifically for her so she transferred those pills to her spatial ring. The rest was naturally left for the others. Wu Long was someone she was very familiar with, so she entrusted him with the item distributions.

Wu Long swiftly scanned inside the ring and his face became shocked and excited. He glanced at his companions and nodded at them with a smile.

Xia Lihua turned to Huo Honghui and asked, Senior Huo, does the previous Guardian, Senior Zhao Ping have any descendants?

With a brief look of surprise followed by a look of understanding, Huo Honghui nodded.

Only one, he is cultivating in the Aether Sect, his name is Zhao Yu. He replied.

Please lead the way, Senior Huo.

Huo Honghui nodded and headed off in a direction with Xia Lihua following. The others said nothing, quietly waiting. A while later, the both of them returned.

Senior Huo, Senior Bai, Senior Li, we have bothered you all long enough. We will return to the Northern Continent. I will visit again soon. Xia Lihua gave a little bow and left, the others also bid their farewell before following her.

A month later.

Peace returned to the Mortal Haven World but the invasion of the Nether race was still being mentioned among the people. This was by far the fiercest war they had ever seen, not including the Celestial races invasion because not many people knew about that event.

The endless years of war with the Upper World have made the Mortal Haven World united, void of any major conflict. The wars had only motivated everyone to cultivate and become stronger.

However, geniuses could not grow in a peaceful environment, therefore the Sects in both Continent promoted intense competition among their disciples for resources.

On a certain day, in the Aether Sect, five whirlpools appeared above five immortal caves.

------------------------

One week ago.

Ji Xian hung the note and spatial ring on the door then headed off to the Northern Continent. He wanted to talk to Xia Lihua before he left.

He stood in the air, floating above a barren land, and not long after a delicate figure appeared next to him.

Xia Lihua looked at Ji Xian with surprise, her eyes sparkled with delight.

Why are you here? she asked in a gleeful tone.

Im leaving for a while, to another world.

Xia Lihuas face turned serious.

How? To traverse the stars at the Holy realm is impossible not to mention there are no Worlds even close to this one.

Ji Xian shook his head at Xia Lihua with a hint of disappointment.

With a tone like a teacher educating a student, he said, You're too close-minded. I guess it can't be helped since you've never left the Mortal Haven World but you should know, nothing is impossible. The road to cultivation is endless, while the Universe is boundless. We're born in the Lower World, above us is the Upper World, and beyond that? Who knows? You may be considered a genius down here, but will that remain the same up there? Worlds are constantly being destroyed while new ones are constantly being born. Apex heroes roam the stars while pinnacle evil lurks in the dark..."

Xia Lihua listened to Ji Xians endless chirping and zoned out. She felt his words made sense but something didnt seem right

She watched as he put on a haughty expression. His hands moved exaggeratedly as he lectured her. After some time, she no longer remembered what the original topic was anymore as he digressed from one topic to the next.

Not able to take it anymore, she finally found the chance to interrupt him and asked, "How do you know all this?"

Ji Xian's eyebrows pinched, and his expression turned serious.

I read a lot of books.
