Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1755: People’s Worries II

Dugu Yuanshen looked at them one by one. ”Do you think we can stop those two primordial beasts? Emperor Long, Tianshi Bailong, Long Xukong, and the demon gods are stronger than us, but they are powerless against their pressure. Our secret technique can indeed increase our strength, but we won’t be able to do anything against those two primordial beasts.”

”Master.” Dugu Yuanshen looked at Dugu Liangsen. ”Our hope is Zhang Fei and Empress Huo because they can move and fight the two primordial beasts. However, we can’t rely on them; we must do something to protect ourselves and our domain.”

Dugu Yuanshen agreed with his first disciple. ”I had already known that Zhang Fei was different from other cultivators since I first saw him on the third floor of the tower, but I seem to have underestimated him. Besides, Empress Huo was one of his wives, and her cultivation had already surpassed the Five Celestial Realms, so they were our hope to fight the two primordial beasts.”

”Do you know the stages after the Five Celestial Realms, Master?”

”Zhang Fei said that it was the Three God Realms: The God King Realm, the God Emperor Realm, and the Supreme God Realm.” Dugu Yuanshen let out a sigh with a hint of disappointment. ”He said that cultivators from the Paradise Realm and the Ancient Realm would never be able to reach that stage, and Empress Huo was able to reach it because she was a special existence.”

Dugu Liangsen and the others had also heard Zhang Fei’s conversation with the hidden forces earlier. One of them said that Feng Yao was Xin, the embodiment of the core of their universe.

”Master—”

”That’s enough.” Dugu Yuanshen stopped them. ”There’s no point in discussing Zhang Fei and Empress Huo’s strength and identities. Our main focus right now is to increase our strength so that we can handle those creatures if they invade this Paradise Realm.”

After discussing a few other matters, they left the room. Dugu Yuanshen walked to the window, looking up at the sky in thought. ”What are your next plans, young man? At first, I thought we could help you deal with those creatures, but that seems impossible now.”

The humans from several other domains had the same thoughts as Dugu Yuanshen; they would rather not rely on Zhang Fei and Feng Yao, and they began to prepare themselves to deal with the threat from those creatures.

The situation in the Floral Mirage Domain was relatively calm compared to other domains. Although the members of the natural races were worried about the threat posed by these creatures, they didn’t let it weigh them down. They believed Zhang Fei would lead them in their extermination, and they awaited his next order.

Just like the natural races, the demihuman races of the Heavenly Mistveil Domain didn’t dare underestimate those creatures, but they didn’t want the matter to become a burden for them. Long Huoyan urged all races in his domain not to rely on Zhang Fei; he also ordered them to cultivate harder and prepare themselves for the worst.

In the Forgotten Land.

Xuanyuan Fenglei, the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Clan, listened to stories from Xuanyuan Zhuanxu and the other five ancestors regarding the events in the Dragon-Soaring Divine Domain.

”The Eternal Flame is in Zhang Fei’s hands, and he needs Huo Ling’s help to defeat those creatures.” Xuanyuan Qian sighed. ”We have long wanted to return to the Ancient Realm, but the domain will remain sealed before the flame returns to the temple.”

”Zhang Fei can take us to the Paradise Realm, so he should be able to send us to one of the domains in the Ancient Realm, right?” Xuanyuan Wuyue asked.

Xuanyuan Changyi nodded. ”Zhang Fei should be able to send us there, but are we really going to abandon our ancestral land? I know that our lives will be better if we move to other domains, but I don’t have the heart to leave.”

”The main problem is that those creatures have taken over many domains, and they are constantly trying to break into the Puyang Clan.” Xuanyuan Shun looked at the others. ”Although our domain has been in this state for a long time, it is still part of the Ancient Realm, so I’m worried that those creatures will break into our domain one day.”

”You’re right,” Xuanyuan Hao agreed with him. ”Those creatures and the two primordial beasts are a real threat to this universe, and those hidden forces say that Zhang Fei is our only hope of defeating them.”

”Even if Zhang Fei is our hope for defeating those creatures, we cannot stand idly by and let him fight alone for the future of this universe. The strength of those creatures and the two primordial beasts far surpasses ours, but we are the inhabitants of this universe, so we are also responsible for its safety.” Xuanyuan Zhuanxu sighed. ”We can’t do anything because they are far beyond our reach, and the only thing we can do is focus on ourselves, so we will be ready if he needs our help in the future.”

At the Puyang Clan.

Puyang Shenmi listened to Puyang Shangren and the others’ explanation of the previous incident. She was shocked after they told her Feng Yao’s identity as Xin, the embodiment of the core of their universe.

Puyang Shenmi had long suspected that Feng Yao’s true identity was beyond her comprehension, but she never expected that she was the embodiment of the core of their universe, and their universe would be destroyed if she died.

”So, what should we do, Ancestor?” Puyang Zong asked gloomily.

Puyang Shangren spoke again. ”Those two primordial beasts are indeed powerful, but I don’t think they pose a threat to us right now. They’re targeting Zhang Fei and Long Wuzhao because they are the Calamity Demon Dragon and the Five-Clawed Gold Dragon of this era, so I’m sure they won’t attack us. On the contrary, those creatures are a terrible threat to this universe, and we don’t know when and where the main creature will appear.”

”I can’t make a decision right now.” Puyang Shenmi looked at them. ”Since Senior Feng can’t appear before us anymore, I’ll wait for Zhang Fei to come to our domain again, and I’ll discuss this matter with him. For now, I want all of you to focus on the matters within our clan, and you guys must do your best to prevent those creatures from breaching our barrier.”

”Yes, Ancestor.”

Puyang Shenmi watched them leave while thinking. ”The Three God Realms, huh? Last time she came to my clan, Senior Feng said that cultivators in the Paradise Realm and the Ancient Realm would never be able to reach that stage, and we would have to go to the Primordial Realm to reach it. Unfortunately, she didn’t explain to me the path to get there, so I was blind about those stages. I hope Zhang Fei will come here soon, and we will discuss many things at that time.”

The situation in the Twin Flames Domain was much calmer than the other domains after Zhang Fei’s clones went to meet all the residents. They told those people not to worry too much about those two primordial beasts, but they asked them to stay alert and watch out for their sudden appearances.

”I didn’t expect that the two primordial beasts would find you and Long Wuzhao, Master.” Serpentera said with a serious expression.

Tian Kui was anxious about it. ”Do you think they will find us here, Master?”

”I don’t think so.” Zhang Fei [5] patted their shoulders. ”Old Kui and Old Snake, I can’t return to this domain often because the two primordial beasts already know about me, and I’m afraid they’ll attack here if they find me here, so I’ll leave the protection of this domain to you two. Although I will rarely return, I will often send Qing Qiu’er and You Feiling back, and you two can discuss with them if there are any problems.”

Serpentera sighed. ”What about your plan to move all your acquaintances to the Yin-Yang Immortal Valley, Master?”

”Those creatures are simply too powerful, and the main creature is even more powerful. Yao’er and I aren’t ready to face them yet, so I won’t risk moving them there. When we succeed in defeating those creatures and the two primordial beasts, I will move them all there.” Zhang Fei[5] looked away, and the two women appeared before him. They were Huo Mingyi and Huo Mengyi who were sent by Feng Yao to protect the domain and the sect. ”Yao’er can’t return to this realm anymore, and she has already handed over everyone from the Blazing Nirvana Domain to me. Old Snake and Old Kui are strong, but they won’t be able to protect this domain by themselves, so I hope the two of you are willing to help them.”

Huo Mingyi and Huo Mengyi nodded to Zhang Fei [5]. ”You are our master’s husband, so you are also our master, and we will protect this domain according to your wishes.”

”Thank you.” Huo Mingyi and Huo Mengyi immediately disappeared from Zhang Fei [5]’s sight. ”I’ll be leaving now, and you two can contact me if there’s an emergency.”

”Yes, Master.”

Before long, Zhang Fei [5] walked into the meeting room in the golden dragon palace, where Long Wuzhao and the others were already waiting for him.

”What should we do now, Zhang Fei?”

Zhang Fei [5] sighed and sat down in an empty chair. ”Emperor Long, you must leave this domain; otherwise, the two primordial beasts will attack this domain again. Yao’er can’t return to this realm, and I don’t have the confidence to face them. I can defeat them today because their two avatars aren’t that strong, but they might send even stronger avatars in the future, so we must eliminate your traces from this domain.”
