Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1053: Immortal Lotus Sanctuary

Feng Yao smiled at that. ”I already guessed that Luo Yunxiao and her family would tell you about Huo Yanling, but I didn’t expect that little fox to have such a big mouth and mention Shen Yuanzhi in front of you. You can call me whatever you like, but I prefer Feng Yao, especially since that’s my current name.”

”Are you willing to reveal all the truth to me?”

Feng Yao replied with a shake of her head. ”If you want to know everything, you have to reach my level first.”

”Tch!” Feltia [2] gritted her teeth in annoyance as Feng Yao never changed, even though they hadn’t seen each other for a long time. ”Since you always monitor me, you should know about the mysterious woman from the Ancient Nether Clan.”

”I know you’re curious about that woman, but she’s still far beyond your reach. Moreover, she won’t dare to do anything to you anymore, so you don’t need to think about her for now.” Feltia [2] immediately realized the meaning behind Feng Yao’s words. ”Smart! So, do you want to go to the Empyrean Domain? You might be able to withstand the gravity in the Paradise Realm, but your master has never trained like you. That’s why I came here to meet you two, or he wouldn’t be able to move once you two entered one of the gates. If you want to go to the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary, Huo Ling will take us there.”

Huo Ling immediately came out of Feng Yao’s body, but she still didn’t like Feltia [2], especially since her master was so obsessed with him that she was willing to do anything for his sake.

”I do plan to go to the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary, but I have to do something first.” Feng Yao, who understood Feltia [2]’s wish, immediately created a barrier, covering them from the public’s eyes.

Within seconds, Feltia [2] had switched places with Zhang Fei, and he immediately pulled Feng Yao into his arms before giving her a kiss.

Unlike before, Feng Yao no longer rejected Zhang Fei. She put her arms at his shoulders, crossed them behind his neck, and kissed him back.

Han Ling laughed inwardly at the sight of them kissing like that. ’This kid! He’s just married dozens of women in one day, and he’s already found another one here.’

Huo Ling looked jealous seeing Feng Yao kiss Zhang Fei in such a way, and it was clear in her eyes that she wanted to beat him up. However, she quickly suppressed her anger while grumbling in her heart. ’Tch! This bastard! How dare he tarnish my master! I’ll roast him alive!’

Feng Yao swiftly slapped Zhang Fei’s hands when he tried to touch her buttocks, and she separated their lips instantly. ”Give an inch, take a yard! I kissed you because of my promise to you in the past, but I haven’t given you permission to touch other parts of my body.”

”Hahaha.” Zhang Fei laughed at that. ”How are my parents-in-law? Where are they now?”

”They’re fine, and they’re cultivating in the Flame Spirit Citadel. Their cultivation has also reached the Three-Sun Celestial King realm now, but I forbid them from stopping cultivation until they reach the Three-Sun Celestial God realm.” Zhang Fei took a deep breath after Feng Yao said that, especially since Feng Tian and Feng Jiu’s cultivation was still at the One-Moon Divine Ascension Realm when the three of them left the Three Mortal Realms, but they had already reached that stage now. ”Naturally, they wouldn’t be able to reach that stage that quickly, but the Flame Spirit Citadel is a special place, especially since it was built by the Primordial Fire Spirit Clan, which is much stronger than the Ancient Nether Clan.”

Unlike Zhang Fei, who was curious about the Flame Spirit Citadel and the Primordial Fire Spirit Clan, Han Ling felt dizzy listening to Feng Yao, making him feel too inferior to her.

Feng Yao told them directly. ”As the name suggests, the Primordial Fire Spirit Clan lived in the primordial era, and they built the Flame Spirit Citadel after taming the fire calamity beast to speed up their cultivation. They could even communicate with the primordial flame, aka the eternal flame, and they managed to obtain a small portion of it.”

”Back then, you told me that the primordial flame disappeared from the Temple of Forgotten Flame, which caused the Eternal Domain to transform into the Forgotten Domain. However, it never actually disappeared, and Shen Yuanzhi took it away from that domain. Therefore, it’s in your hands now, right?” Huo Ling raised an eyebrow as soon as Zhang Fei looked at her. ”She is the spirit of the primordial flame.”

Huo Ling’s face turned ugly as soon as Zhang Fei said that, but Feng Yao immediately admitted it. ”You’re right, she is the spirit of the Primordial Flame, and I took her away from the Eternal Domain for some reason. However, I don’t want to talk about the past with you today, and you will know everything when the time comes.”

”Can you give me a small portion of your flame?” Zhang Fei asked the female fire spirit.

”You’re not worthy of my flame!”

’This spirit bitch! I’ll spank her ass in the future.’ Feng Yao giggled as she realized Zhang Fei’s thoughts. ”So, which gate should we pass through to go to the Empyrean Domain?”

”Are you impatient to reunite with Luo Yunxiao?” Zhang Fei simply smiled in response to Feng Yao’s teasing, and she immediately led them toward the gate that would connect them to the Empyrean Domain, much to the astonishment of the newcomers.

The two guards at the gate remained silent and efficiently opened it for them. However, they were also curious about Zhang Fei’s identity, especially since Feng Yao decided to pick him up personally.

Zhang Fei immediately felt a heavy pressure as soon as they arrived in the Paradise Domain, even though he had perfectly adapted to thirty-two times heavier gravity. He was still luckier than Han Ling, who was completely overwhelmed by that gravitational pressure.

Huo Ling enveloped them with her aura, which allowed Han Ling to breathe normally. ”Thank you, Senior. The gravity in this realm is truly terrifying.”

”Newcomers usually can’t enter right away; guards will send them to a place to acclimate first. Luckily, Huo Ling is with us, and she can protect you from the gravity here.” Feng Yao then ordered the female spirit. ”Bring us to the Empyrean Domain and then the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary now, Ling’er.”

Huo Ling sighed heavily before flying them there, and they arrived there in just a few minutes.

[The system has already recorded the Empyrean Domain, and the host can access it through the gate in the future.]

After they arrived at the Immortal Lotus Sanctuary, Huo Ling immediately returned to Feng Yao’s body and let her master lead them to meet Luo Yunxiao. Despite this, she still enveloped Han Ling with her aura; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to walk, but she ignored Zhang Fei and let him do it himself.

As he followed behind Feng Yao, Zhang Fei saved the location in his warp portal ability, so he could return there whenever he wanted if he went to other domains in the future.

Just as they arrived in front of the guardhouse, Zhang Fei looked ahead with a broad smile. ’She’s a goddess.’

Feng Yao looked at Luo Yunxiao, who was gracefully walking towards them, followed by her parents. She teased Zhang Fei directly. ”Apparently, your little lover is the same as you, huh? She immediately came out of her palace as soon as she sensed your presence.”

The two guards were momentarily surprised when they saw Luo Fenghan’s group, and immediately they bowed their heads while respectfully greeting them.

”Fei.” Luo Yunxiao called softly as she stood in front of the man she had always missed. She then took his hands and held them tightly. ”I didn’t expect you to arrive in this realm so quickly, and I thought I would have to wait hundreds of years for you.”

”Even though it hasn’t been hundreds of years, I’ve made you wait a few years. That’s why I hurriedly left for this realm a little over three months ago, and here I am now.” Zhang Fei then looked at Luo Yunxiao’s family. ”Uncle Luo! Aunt Huang! Long time no see.”

Luo Fenghan nodded to Zhang Fei, and Huang Xiaoyi immediately spoke to him. ”It’s good that you’re here now, but you won’t be staying in this realm yet, right?”

”Not yet.” Zhang Fei then explained. ”Actually, I came here to see Yunxiao and do something for my family, and I hope that you two will allow me to bring her with me.”

”Let’s talk inside first.”

”Yes.” Luo Fenghan and Huang Xiaoyi immediately took the lead.

Zhang Fei followed behind them with Luo Yunxiao, who intimately hugged his arm, baffling the people watching them. Feng Yao and Han Ling followed behind them.

When they were far enough away, the two guards stared at Zhang Fei’s back, wondering about his identity and his relationship with their princess. After all, his cultivation was far below guards like them, but Luo Yunxiao treated him like that, and his parents were also polite to him.

A while later, they were already in the private area of the Luo Clan, and Huang Xiaoyi immediately ordered several servants to prepare some of the best dishes for them.

”Who is this man, Father? Why is our big sister so affectionate with him?” A young man approached them while asking a question, with a young woman accompanying him. There was another young man and young woman behind them, and both of them were also curious about Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei immediately read their statuses once Mei displayed them, but he frowned when he discovered something unusual about one of the young women.

”Fei, they are my brothers and sisters-in-law.” Luo Yunxiao then pointed at the two young men. ”The one who looks like a scholar is Luo Zhenyu, and the woman beside him is his wife, Bing Xingying. Meanwhile, the one holding a flute is our little brother, Luo Jiaxuan. The woman by his side is his wife, Cheng Mengyao.”

Bing Xingying suddenly remembered something and asked Luo Yunxiao directly. ”Isn’t he the man in all the paintings hanging in your room, Big Sis?”

”Yes.” Luo Yunxiao nodded at her. ”Zhang Fei is my childhood friend and lover.”

”Eh? Is he really your lover, Big Sis? Didn’t you separate from him when you guys were ten?” Cheng Mengyao curiously asked.

Luo Yunxiao nodded at her sister-in-law. ”Even though we were separated for so long, I never stopped thinking about him, and we met again a few years ago.”

”Hey, Big Sis! I know he’s your childhood friend, but he’s too young to be your lover, right?” Luo Zhenyu blurted out.

Luo Jiaxuan nodded in agreement. ”I think the same as my brother, Big Sis. Look at him; he’s even younger than me. I think he’s not suitable for you, and you should find a man of your age.”

Zhang Fei frowned at their remarks, but they ignored them outright. Moreover, some of his wives were even much older than them, such as Feng Yichen and Huli Zhishen, who had lived more than five hundred thousand years.

”You two should stop talking and not interfere in your big sister’s affairs.” Both of them turned to Luo Fenghan. ”Your mother and I have known Zhang Fei since he was born, and our two families also had a favorable relationship in the past. Moreover, age is just a number to us cultivators, and you two should remember that I am several thousand years younger than your mother. Despite our great age difference, we are living a happy life now; otherwise, you two would never have been born into this world.”

”You two should listen to your father.” Luo Yunxiao’s sisters-in-law immediately glared at Feng Yao, but they didn’t dare be impudent in front of her, especially since their parents had already told them her past identity. ”Zhang Fei is different from you two, and his talent even surpasses your sister’s. Moreover, he has only cultivated for about three and a half years, but he has already reached his current cultivation level, so he is worthy of being her husband. If you two were in his position and grew up in the Three Mortal Realms, I dare guarantee that you would definitely not have reached the Seven Divine Realms by now, let alone the Five Celestial Realms.”

”Huh?” The four of them looked at Zhang Fei in shock. They had never been to the Three Mortal Realms, but their parents had told them that the Qi there was much weaker than in the Paradise Realm. Although they were skeptical about his cultivation speed, they did not dare to doubt Feng Yao’s words.

”Zhang Fei is a dual cultivator, and he has more than a hundred wives.” Luo Yunxiao’s confession shocked them again. ”Even though he has many wives, I don’t mind that, and I have already chosen him as my husband. Therefore, you two must respect him; otherwise, I will ask my master to send you two to that place, and you will live there for a thousand years.”

”No! Big Sis! We will definitely respect your future husband, so please don’t threaten us like that.” Luo Jiaxuan and Luo Zhenyu looked at Zhang Fei, bowing slightly. ”Brother-in-law, please forgive us; we didn’t mean to insult you.”

Zhang Fei smiled amusedly at the two men’s behavior, but he immediately took out four bottles and gave each of them one bottle. ”The pills inside will be useful for all of you.”

”Hmm?” Curious, Bing Xingying immediately opened the bottle after her husband gave it to her, and the pills inside made her stutter. ”Six... six superior-grade pills.”

Hearing that, the other three immediately opened their respective bottles before giving the same reaction as Bing Xingying. ”Did you concoct these pills yourself, Brother-in-law?”

”I’ve almost reached the celestial rank of alchemist, and I only need to concoct a rank-9 pill to become one.” Zhang Fei then gestured to the phoenix princess. ”One of my wives taught me about alchemy, and Feng Yao helped me understand it more deeply.”

”Hehe.” Feng Yao chuckled and asked them. ”Do you two still think she’s not worthy of Luo Yunxiao? He is not only a high-ranking alchemist, but he is also a high-ranking blacksmith and formation master. Moreover, he still has another profession, which is a domain master.”

Zhang Fei simply smiled as he saw the four of them in such a daze, but Huang Xiaoyi immediately spoke to them. ”The servants have finished preparing some dishes, so let’s eat together and talk about lighthearted things.”

Huang Xiaoyi immediately took her husband away, Luo Yunxiao took Zhang Fei with her, followed by Feng Yao and Han Ling.

”Brother, how do you think our brother-in-law managed to learn all that in just three and a half years?” Luo Zhenyu could only shake his head at Luo Jiaxuan.

Bing Xingying and Cheng Mengyao immediately grabbed their husbands. ”Let’s follow them, husbands! We’ll ask him many things later, so we don’t need to be too curious now.”

Throughout their lunch, Luo Zhenyu, Luo Jiaxuan, and their two wives asked Zhang Fei many things, especially about his life in the Three Mortal Realms and his other wives. He casually answered each of their questions, but he didn’t reveal anything private or secret.

Zhang Fei asked Luo Fenghan to take in his master, Han Ling, to which he immediately agreed.

After they finished their lunch, Luo Fenghan took Han Ling elsewhere, where he could begin to acclimate to the gravity of the Paradise Realm. Meanwhile, Huang Xiaoyi left with Feng Yao to discuss some matters.

Luo Zhenyu, Luo Jiaxuan, and their two wives still wanted to ask Zhang Fei many questions, but Luo Yunxiao hurriedly took him to her private chamber.

As soon as they arrived, Zhang Fei and Luo Yunxiao immediately embraced each other and engaged in a passionate kiss. He slowly pushed her back until the wall stopped them, and the two kissed for quite a while.

Luo Yunxiao then hugged him tighter. ”Fei, I’m really glad you’re here now.”

”Me too, Yunxiao.” Zhang Fei caressed her head. ”I’m happy to see you again, and we’ll see each other more often from now on.”
