I'm About to Die, Can't I Buff My Junior Sister's Strength?

153: The young master has broken through again?“You are a born Supreme, and Immortal Ascension is inevitable in the future. Think about why that Demon Emperor insisted on killing you?”

“Even he is wary of you growing up. Don’t you realize the terrifying potential you possess? You will understand later.”

Behind Xia Youyue, a phantom lightly spoke, her voice like the music of nature. The phantom was somewhat blurry, but her identity as a woman could vaguely be discerned through her voice. Around her, three thousand Divine Kingdoms rose and fell, circling her and supporting her like a Monarch from the Nine Heavens.

She was the being Xia Youyue accidentally encountered in an Ancient Ruin. Her true form was a broken Willow Tree, which Xia Youyue placed inside the Heaven-Wielding Bottle to nurture. It was also she who allowed Xia Youyue to obtain the Source Power of an Ancient Supreme’s remains, enabling her to Breakthrough in one fell swoop and re-condense a supreme bone.

She also obtained a Supreme Divine Ability!

Her origins were vast, unimaginably so. In her Peak period, she rarely met a match even in the Immortal Realm, and she had seen countless Prodigies. Therefore, when Xia Youyue praised how much of a Prodigy her Senior Brother was, she merely smiled it off.

“Sister Liu, you don’t understand. You’ll know once you meet him...” Xia Youyue replied helplessly.

Regarding her words, the Willow Tree simply smiled indifferently and said no more.

The next second.

Xia Youyue’s figure had already passed through the barrier between the Heavenly Demon Cave and the Human Race territory. The place she returned to was different from where Lin Yuan and the others went; she emerged from beside the ruin.

As soon as she stepped out, an indifferent aura rushed toward her.

Xia Youyue’s pupils abruptly contracted as she looked at the scene before her, and she was instantly stunned rigid on the spot.

Before her.

Under the dark night, broken cities stretched endlessly like terrifying monsters, seemingly without end. White bones piled up everywhere like mountains. These were the remains of powerful Cultivators; it was easy to imagine that the remains of Mortals had long turned to dust. The countless pavilions and palaces within the cities proved their former prosperity. Judging by their form, these bones belonged to the Human Race, and the sheer number of the dead exceeded Xia Youyue’s imagination.

“This is...” Xia Youyue was stunned, momentarily unable to express her current emotions, and an inexplicable sadness welled up in her heart.

Could this place be outside the Great Xia borders?

Are these the Dynasties that were annihilated by the Yao Race?

“I never expected the Eastern Profound Ancient Realm to turn into this state. It seems the scope of the Yao Calamity was so vast that even the strongest Demon Sealing Sect couldn’t escape... It looks like I must hurry and let this girl grow up...” A hint of shock flashed in the Willow Tree’s eyes, and she muttered to herself with a solemn expression.

After waking from her slumber, she immediately understood where she was.

The Fourth Star Domain of the Demon Sealing Sect!

She had thought that this place would at least be peaceful, after all, the Demon Sealing Sect’s power made them a transcendent Overlord even in the Immortal Realm!

But now it seemed that even the Demon Sealing Sect’s Ancient Realm had been destroyed... Xia Youyue paused for a moment, took out wine from her Spatial Ring, performed a simple sacrifice to the countless bones, and then left, her resolve becoming even firmer.

“Great Xia absolutely cannot end up like this!”

“I must protect the Human Race’s final Dynasty!”

Not long after.

Xia Youyue returned to the territory of Great Xia. It was already evening. After thinking it over, she did not immediately return to the Imperial Capital but chose to go to the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Now that the task she promised her Senior Brother was complete, she could report back.

The base of the Heavenly Sword Sect was already overcrowded. Some couldn’t even find lodging and slept directly in the trees, while others even pitched tents. Every one of them was a Cultivator who had rushed over from the Nine Provinces. Their objective was simple: to observe the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Nine Peaks Grand Competition and, while they were at it, personally see Shen Nian, the legendary Chief Disciple of the Ninth Mountain!

“This is the base of the Heavenly Sword Sect! Pitching tents is one thing, but how can you relieve yourself anywhere you please!” An Attendant of the Heavenly Sword Sect grabbed a Qi Condensation Cultivator and said furiously.

The captured Cultivator immediately retorted, “What am I? Just now, a few scoundrels were secretly fooling around, Big Brother, you should be catching them!”

Hearing this, Long Stick Li’s mouth twitched, his Face immediately darkened, and he felt a headache coming on.

There were simply too many people gathered here. There were Cultivators lying down even on the streets of Yunzhou, let alone at the base of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Many fans of Senior Brother Shen deliberately rushed here, saying they wanted to feel Lord Shen’s aura, and that breathing the same air as him made their Realm improve.

Isn’t that ridiculous!

Nevertheless, Long Stick Li was genuinely happy that so many people admired Senior Brother Shen, and the Outer Sect Disciples of the Ninth Mountain all felt they had great Face.

Although there were too many people, Long Stick Li needed to maintain order. In just one day, he had detained over a dozen troublemakers, but he was happily exhausted.

Just at this moment.

Xia Youyue walked through the crowd, a hint of surprise in her eyes as she looked at the multitude of figures.

Only then did she remember that tomorrow was the day of the Heavenly Sword Sect’s Nine Peaks Grand Competition. She immediately understood. In the past, she would show up in Yunzhou to check on the Heavenly Sword Sect Disciples during the Nine Peaks Grand Competition, but never before had there been so many people.

“It must be because of Senior Brother...” Xia Youyue thought to herself, then walked toward the Mountain Gate guarded by Long Stick Li.

“Miss, the guest rooms at the Heavenly Sword Sect are already full...” Long Stick Li said very politely.

“I am a Disciple of the Ninth Mountain.” Xia Youyue replied softly.

Long Stick Li immediately put on a serious expression, cupped his hands, and said, “Senior Sister Xia, please follow me...”

The news that Shen Nian had taken another Junior Sister had long since spread. Inspector Xia Youyue of Great Xia—he knew her.

Ninth Mountain.

The bright moon hung high.

Inside the wooden house.

Shen Nian slowly opened his eyes, his Divine Thought returning from the cangtian token. He glanced outside and saw that it was nighttime. He thought, “How did it become night already? Did I spend too much time delayed in the Illusion created by that little boy?”

Immediately after.

Shen Nian sensed someone outside the house, so he got up and pushed the door open.

“This old servant pays his respects to the Young Lord!” Lin Yuan bowed deeply with cupped hands. He then looked up, his pupils filled with intense shock, and swallowed, asking, “Young Lord, you’ve reached the Void Return Realm??”

There was no Spiritual Energy fluctuation left on his body, but rather it was filled with Dao Charm, all indicating that Shen Nian had Broken Through his Realm!

But even he was starting to doubt life itself. How could the Young Lord have Broken Through again just in the time it took him to turn around and escort those Human Race women back to Great Xia?

This is too outrageous!

It was no wonder he was shocked. He had served in the Cangtian Army for many years and had once seen the Night King. Although the Night King was terrifying, he wasn’t this exaggerated!

Wang Cuihua, who was behind him, was also completely stunned, momentarily forgetting the danger they had just faced.

Oh my goodness!

What kind of Monster is this? Does he not have a Bottleneck when Breaking his Realm?

Void Return at twenty years old!!!

If word got out, it would scare people to death! She hadn’t heard of such a thing in all of Great Xia!

Is it really okay for him to construct his dao palace here? Given his talent, wouldn’t it be better to return to the Shen Family and use Divine Artifacts to construct an even stronger Earth Palace?

Just as she was deep in thought, Lin Yuan’s Sound Transmission entered her mind.

“You first step aside for a moment.”

Wang Cuihua nodded obediently, then turned and left.

Seeing this scene, Shen Nian glanced at Lin Yuan with interest, then nodded slightly, openly admitting it. He had no need to follow the path of Pretending to be a Pig to Eat the Tiger.

“Hiss...” Lin Yuan gasped sharply. Although he already had the answer in his heart, seeing Shen Nian admit it personally was still different.

The next second, he stepped forward and grinned.

“The Young Lord is truly a Heaven-Defying Genius! Looking through ancient times, the present, and the future, those who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the Young Lord are few and far between!”

“In this situation, this old servant would like to...”
