I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 2697 - 1240: West Continent

”Whose child is it?” was the first thought in Chen Mobai’s mind, so he asked.

Ye Qing: ”She says it’s Ku Zhu’s.”

Good for you, Ku Zhu, you look honest and upright, but I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person.

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai finally understood the saying, ”People cannot be judged by their appearance.”

He had originally thought that Ku Zhu was like Mo Douguang, an ascetic cultivator dedicated to the sword.

Reflecting on his lack of discernment, Chen Mobai asked about Lian Shui and Ku Zhu’s situation, but Ye Qing didn’t know much. However, it was clear that Lian Shui was sincere. After all, if it wasn’t true love, Nascent Soul cultivators wouldn’t have offspring.

Moreover, after being rescued by Ye Qing, the first thing Lian Shui did was to ask him to save Ku Zhu.

”Who attacked the couple?”

Although Chen Mobai had only met Lian Shui a few times, she was under his leadership, so he couldn’t stand seeing her bullied.

Ye Qing spoke up, relaying what he had learned from Lian Shui: ”Leading them was a Nascent Soul Elder from the Thunder Zen Temple, along with several Nascent Soul cultivators from West Continent sects that follow them. During the time of the Eastern Emperor Court, the Great Thunder Immortal had good relations with our Nine Heavens Demon Slaying Sect. I didn’t want to kill them, so I just used a sword strike to scare them off.”

”After rescuing Lian Shui, out of respect for you, I went to the place where she and Ku Zhu were separated. After arriving in the West Continent, the couple mistakenly entered an ancient relic site containing a desire-enhancing enchanted flower. The fragrance confused their divine senses, leading them to become a Daoist couple.”

”Ku Zhu has a sense of responsibility. Afterward, he formed a Daoist couple with Lian Shui. They lived together in the relic for many years, having already decided to give up revenge and accept the possibility of never leaving, so they had a child.”

”Little did they know, the relic was a forbidden area of the two Great Holy Lands and several major sects of the West Continent. Disciples are sent there to harvest it periodically. After Ku Zhu and Lian Shui were discovered, he fought with all his might to hold off the West Continent cultivators, allowing Lian Shui to escape. Fortunately, she ran into me after that.”

”When I took Lian Shui back to the relic, I found that it had been sealed again. It must have been left by an Ascended Monk, so I didn’t dare to intrude. Later, I visited the Thunder Zen Temple to talk to the Little Thunder Immortal about it. He said that Ku Zhu had enmity with them. Although the grievances had been settled under the mediation of the Pure Palace, the return of Ku Zhu was obviously to seek revenge. This time, they won’t let him go no matter what.”

”But the Little Thunder Immortal still gave me some face, allowing Lian Shui to leave, but to avoid future revenge, they demanded she swear never to set foot on the West Continent for the rest of her life.”

”Later, I inquired at the Impermanence Pavilion and found out that after sending Lian Shui off, although Ku Zhu was severely injured by the West Continent cultivators, he managed to retreat into the relic, so he should still be alive. However, if he is not rescued before the relic opens again, even if the Little Thunder Immortal were to come personally, Ku Zhu might be slain.”

Hearing this, countless scenes from TV dramas flashed through Chen Mobai’s mind.

Following this trajectory, wouldn’t it be Ku Zhu and Lian Shui’s child, after a few hundred years, attaining great cultivation and embarking on a quest in the West Continent to find and rescue his father?

”How is Lian Shui now?” Chen Mobai asked again, as he was certainly concerned about his people.

Ye Qing: ”She was unwilling to leave the West Continent too far behind. After I took her away, she settled on an island near the Mysterious Sea, presumably waiting for Ku Zhu.”

”This is foolish. How can they, mere Nascent Souls, manage this situation? They should have come back to the East Continent and sought my help,” Chen Mobai said with a pained heart.

Ye Qing: ”Perhaps in Lian Shui’s view, you wouldn’t intervene for a mere Branch Sect Elder and take such a long journey.”

After all, to rescue Ku Zhu, it would mean confronting the Thunder Zen Temple, and for the Five Elements Sect, there’s no need to start a West Continent front. Ku Zhu isn’t even from the Five Elements Sect, so it’s an even less of a priority.

However, for Chen Mobai, this was a trivial matter. He didn’t need to act personally.

In the West Continent, the strongest should only be the Pure Wind True Monarch, who might be able to exchange a few moves with his Second Primeval Spirit. But who is the Little Thunder Immortal? Merely a regular Divinity Transformation stage.

”Thank you, Brother Ye, for informing me. Now that I’m aware, I’ll definitely investigate.”

As Chen Mobai spoke, he stood up.

”Brother Chen, you can certainly traverse the West Continent, but please remember to show some restraint.”

Knowing Chen Mobai’s character, Ye Qing merely gave a gentle reminder.

”Alright.”

Chen Mobai nodded, left a message for Chen Lingming, then bid farewell to Shenxi and other Divinity Transformations, transforming into a flash of fire and disappearing from the scene.

The specific affairs of the Eastern Continent Immortal Alliance were discussed for a full three months.

Even with Chen Lingming’s stamina, he felt mentally exhausted the moment the talks concluded.

He returned to Mount Wudi to meet with Xiao Yuli. During that time, Lian Shui inquired about his sister Lian Shui’s situation, as she previously went to work in the East Barbarians with Chen Lingming.

Chen Lingming merely said there was no news yet. The task of sending Ku Zhu to the West Continent was specifically assigned by Chen Mobai, with Chen Lingming choosing Lian Shui for the mission.

Since Lian Shui’s Soul Lantern in Yi Yuan Dao Palace was still active, Lian Shui was not overly worried, just casually asking.

It was only when Chen Lingming visited the Yellow Dragon Cave Mansion to see Chen Mobai, that he learned that Lian Shui had formed a Daoist couple with Ku Zhu and was even pregnant with a child.
