"You're finally here. We've been waiting for you for days." It had been a few days since he last saw Yue Liusu, and his mood was a little agitated.
"I was delayed for a few days on the road, so I arrived a few days late. Sorry to make you all worry." Yue Liusu still ignored the fact that he had met with danger. As long as she came back safely, there was no need to let his friends worry for him anymore.
"That's good then. Let's go to the Upper Heaven Path first, then find a place to stay, and then we can make other plans. How about it?" Liu Yiner suggested. Her matter was not very important, to find an orphan from Fire Phoenix, she had to have patience.
"En, foolish Qiao, after we go, we must hold it in and not let anyone catch us. Do you understand?" Jing Yao's heart was still worried about Jing Qiao.
Although he gave the thing to Yue Liusu for safekeeping, it still couldn't prevent others from staring at them. That thing, no matter what, was something that they couldn't hand over, something that they used their father's life to exchange for.
"Don't worry, brother Yao, I know about it." Jing Qiao scratched his head. Although he said that, when he heard news about Jing Family, he might not be able to keep his cool, but he would try his best. After all, Upper Heaven Path people were not like Profound Sky Continent, they could hide if they wanted to.
"Right." Jing Yao answered, and walked to the pure white door in large strides, and shouted: "Liusu, come over here."
Yue Liusu released Liu Yiner's hand and walked towards the stage.
With one hand behind his back, Jing Yao extended a finger and pointed at a mark on the door, "Put your hands on it."
"Right." "Yes," Yue Liusu replied as he took two steps forward. He flattened his palm and placed the oval shaped mark on it. Then, a warm white light flashed and Yue Liusu withdrew his hand, taking two steps back.
The tightly shut door in front of them was opened!
He couldn't see what was happening outside and could only see a white light flashing by.
"Everyone, let's go." Jing Yao was the first to walk in front as his calm eyes slightly narrowed. He still hadn't stepped foot into Upper Heaven Path in three years. He had to take back everything that belonged to the Jing Family!
"brother Yao, let's go." was already shouting from the inside, he did not expect that just now, Jing Yao had left first, lagging behind them in the end.
"He's coming." Jing Yao replied as he smiled gently and followed along with large strides.
The moment Jing Yao entered, the door closed and the surroundings returned to silence, as if nothing had happened just now.
The moment Yue Liusu opened his eyes, he saw that he was in the exact same array formation as Jing Yao.
"Remember, let's find a place to stay first and inquire about the current situation of the Upper Heaven Path. Only then will we make a decision." Jing Yao was still giving orders.
"Got it, brother Yao." To Jing Yao's nagging, Jing Qiao expressed that he could only answer, not say anything else.
"Let's go." Seeing Jing Qiao being so obedient, Jing Yao did not say anything for a moment and walked out of the array formation first.
Everyone followed Jing Yao out of the array.
Yue Liusu was the last one remaining. At this moment, her divine sense transmitted Xiao Chen's emotional voice.
"Ah!?" Was it Upper Heaven Path? I, Xiao Chen, have also finally returned to claim supremacy one day. "
Yue Liusu, "..."
Just as Yue Liusu stepped out of the array, the array behind him vanished into thin air.
Yue Liusu lifted his head, and was instantly stunned by the scene before him! "This, this, this, this …" What did she see? The field of view here was wider, and what was more surprising was their current location!
"Eh? Girl, why aren't you leaving? " Jing Qiao very sensitively turned his head, and when he really realized that Yue Liusu was not following him, he walked back.
"What's that floating in the air?" What appeared in Yue Liusu's eyes, was a dense mass of things floating in mid-air, like a continent that was moving, she already did not have any words to describe her current feeling.
"Hmm? You mean this? "Ha!" Jing Qiao suddenly thought of something, "Sorry, I forgot to tell you these things. Our current location is at the lowest section of Upper Heaven Path, every section is a continent, but they are all separated by Upper Heaven Path."
"Do you see the top? That's where the God Lord lives, and the topmost right side, which is where Wu Qingcheng resides. Do you still remember the brother Yao told you to open the gate to the border between the two realms? This is because if the brother Yao were to open it, the piece that you dropped would definitely be different from the one we used. "
"Because of the strength of the spiritual energy, that's why the brother Yao allowed you to open it. That is why we can appear together with you on the same page."
Yue Liusu was confused, but more or less, he understood.
To put it bluntly, her strength was only fit to stand at the bottom of the Upper Heaven Path. If she wanted to climb up, she had to raise her strength, otherwise she wouldn't be able to climb to the place closest to Shen Jueming.
"Then, do you all have no choice but to stay at the green spirit's location?" Yue Liusu asked, her brain was working, making things difficult for her.
"According to the original rules, this is how it is, but brother Yao and I are both children of Jing Family, so we already had a drop of our blood drop when we were born. We only need a drop of our blood to return to our original location, but …"
With that, Jing Qiao's gaze dimmed down, "The Jing Family is currently in decline, brother Yao and I cannot use this method to return to our own land, but going to the Green Spirit is not a problem."
"Also, this is not called a piece of land. I was almost knocked unconscious by you. This city is divided according to the rules of the spiritual energy. They are Red City, Orange City … There were a total of seventy-two towns in Red City and sixty-five towns in Orange City. "By the time we reach the top, only the four families will be able to command us."
"It means that the four families control all the cities below them, and that there are God Lords above them. Right now, that's about it, I only know the location of Orange City, but I don't know the number of towns there. We'll know when we get to the town and ask around."
"See below?" Jing Qiao pointed to the very bottom, and when he looked down, he still saw many towns that were all floating in midair.
"Hmm, I saw it?" Yue Liusu didn't really understand.
"Remember, Red City is below, but it is below it. Let's put it this way, Zi City is closest to the horizon, then what about Red City?" Jing Qiao asked.
"It can't be …" Yue Liusu made a bold guess.
"Yes, it's the Underworld, so you have to be careful not to fall." Jing Qiao said very seriously.
"Are you guys going or not?" Liu Yiner shouted again.
"Ha!" "Alright, let's talk as we walk. I'll give you a lighter topic to talk about." Jing Qiao lightly patted Yue Liusu's shoulders, and walked towards Jing Yao and the others with big strides.
Yue Liusu's scalp was still numb. She never thought that there would be a day where she would be so close to the Underworld. She stopped looking and turned around to follow him.
"Let's head towards town now, little girl, do you know why we can't see Heavenly Pillar here?" Jing Yao started to pretend to be serious again.
"Why?" Yue Liusu patiently listened to all of the knowledge that he had never touched before. It was not shameful, because she had never come into contact with the Upper Heaven Path before, so she knew everything from them.
"Because it's better to stand far away! Ha! Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Actually, it's like this, and only cities above Zi City can see Heavenly Pillar erected at the edge of the sky. It's not because there aren't any here, but because the air here is too turbid, that's why it's happening. "
Jing Qiao said half-jokingly. Even walking beside her was a bit hard to listen to.
"Alright you, pick a simple piece and tell Liusu about it. Not only is this a world where the strong are revered, you also need a backer as firm as iron. Otherwise, don't ever rush the big head, do you understand? "If you are not up to par in strength now, you will be easily bullied. If you are not careful, you will be robbed and sold."
Liu Yiner spoke in a serious tone, "Especially you, if you want a face to concoct pills, if you want a body to have a body, it's easy for you to become the target of a trafficker, don't you know that? "So, you better stay within our line of sight. Otherwise, if something happens, how are we supposed to find you in such a big place?"
"Mm, I understand." Yue Liusu laughed and replied, she raised her head and looked up to the sky, seeing the floating cities, she suddenly realised that she still had a long way to go. Which fastest way to reach Shen Jueming's side?
She was afraid, because she hadn't seen him for a long time, that he would forget about her.
"There's one more thing I forgot to mention …" The coins in Profound Sky Continent and the coins in here are not common, so buying things here requires one to swipe their card, basically, they are not given to cash. " Jing Qiao pouted and said, this matter was too important.
No matter how rich Yue Liusu was, he wouldn't be able to spend it here.
Yue Liusu raised her eyebrows, "Did you guys have money or a card in the past? "Can I?" She didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.
Jing Qiao shook his head, and said with a low voice: "I have the Jing Family card, but I'm afraid that I will be arrested if I stay here.
Alright, they were now truly penniless, the kind of people who would not even dare to spend money in their pockets.
"It doesn't matter, I have a way. I'll just give you a chance to learn craftsmanship." Yue Liusu laughed out loud. She was afraid that her skills would not be wasted, hence she decided to use it.
"You, you, you …" Jing Qiao was very surprised, "Could you be …"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Otherwise? So, we just walk to the city and starve to death in there? " Yue Liusu folded his hands across his chest and retreated step by step. Looking at the troubled expression on his three little friends' faces, he knew that they would have reservations even if they wanted to agree.
