Chapter 3559 - Going to Where You Grew Up

Suishen Zhao had finally figured out Tianming's true identity.

"The Mistrunner...." Suishen Yao knew that Tianming had been going to the Yin-Yang World all along. When the pieces fell into place, she was completely overwhelmed. "You little... how many things have you been doing behind my back?"

"I’m indeed the Mistrunner. I was also the one who killed Qitian Muchen's lifebound beast. However, I'm not actually a native of the Yin-Yang World. In fact, I'll be taking you all to my hometown!" Tianming said.

"Are we going to where you grew up?" Suishen Yao expectantly asked.

"Yes."

"Alright, I want to go!"

"Then we'll set out right away." Tianming had the Blissful Union emerge from its hiding spot and come toward him through the wormhole expressway. It had been hidden in the nearest mundus to Myriadpath Valley, so it didn't take long for the monochrome ball to emerge from a crack in space.

For the first time in countless years, two fortuna-class ships had appeared side by side. The Grand Myriadpath Ruins was a golden pyramid of brilliance, while the Blissful Union was a monochrome sphere filled with mystery. The two ships' styles starkly contrasted against each other.

While the former seemed built for combat, the latter had other valuable capabilities, like the wormhole expressway. It also carried the Yin-Yang World's legacy.

The two fortuna-class ships would be Tianming's bases moving forward. If he couldn’t use the Myriadpath Celestial Formation, he would need the Blissful Union to get around.

The Grand Myriadpath Ruins had the highest utility near Myriadpath Valley, where it could serve as a mobile fortress. Using it to cross vast distances in the astralscape, however, would require decades, or even centuries.

The former valley lord's eyes brightened when he saw the Blissful Union, having been the defender of the Grand Myriadpath Ruins for so many years. "What a ship! It even has legacies comparable to those of Myriadpath Valley. No wonder Qitian Xiao tried taking it for himself and ended up in such a sorry state. That's karmic retribution for ya!"

"The three houses probably have no idea that the legacy that they dreamed of is in Tianming's hands! When they see the Blissful Union, their spirits will definitely crumble," Suishen Xiyue said.

Yin Chen reported that a team of a thousand people had been assembled and would depart for Skydome in two hours. Tianming no longer had any time; he had to rush back to make preparations before they arrived.

It would be much simpler if all they had to do was deal with a handful of elites. However, a group of a thousand astral gods had a lot of potential for chaos. Preparations to contain them had to be made.

Tianming didn't want Skydome to suffer too much from the conflict. However, his power as a Galactic Emperor was limited to Infinitum, so Skydome was one of his weaknesses.

He didn't feel any particular affinity for wonderians, but Fengqing Youmeng had helped him out quite a bit. Not to mention, the wonderians of Skydome had already submitted to him, with a few of them even becoming genuine worshippers. Fengqing Youmeng had even tried really hard to advocate for his reputation. As such, there were a few hundred million normal gods in Wondrium that could be mobilized at his word. The same could be said for the unaffiliated cultivators of Myriadpath Valley.

"Alright, old man, I'll take my leave now," Tianming said as he waved. It would be hard to stay in touch across vast distances in the astralscape. The former valley lord would be left to make his own decisions once Tianming returned to Skydome. Tianming wouldn't be able to guess how things would develop, either. All he could do was prepare and react as appropriate.

"Go ahead! I'll be waiting," the former valley lord said. "I pray that you and my fellow Qingchuans will be able to experience a life of peace. It’ll give me enough time to finish my work." His best days were the ones he spent writing.

Just like that, Tianming, Jiguang, Suishen Xiyue, and the three Suishen youths boarded the Blissful Union. They immediately gasped at the grandeur of the mysterious fortuna-class astralship.

"Don't run around, okay? We can't really predict what’ll happen here," Suishen Xiyue said.

Tianming piloted the ship deeper into space as he waved the Grand Myriadpath Ruins goodbye. "Hold on tight!" The Blissful Union began to accelerate.

"Wormhole expressway, activate! Set course for Skydome!" While the Blissful Union could go straight to Infinitum, Myriadpath Valley's stareye was at Skydome, so Tianming would have to stop the Three Exalted Houses' force there.

"Whoa!" The Suishens watched as space in front of the ship fractured into a floral pattern that swallowed them up.

"So this is the wormhole expressway...."

"There’s so many secrets waiting to be uncovered in the universe. I wonder how many things foundationeers like us haven't discovered yet...." Suishen Yao's worldview seemed to turn on itself. She couldn't help but sneak a glance at Tianming. Never could she have imagined that the youth at the Skyward Grandpath would end up doing something so impressive.

"This is nothing," Suishen Xiyue said, understanding how her daughter felt. "Once you reach his home, the Infinitum Mundus, you'll start to wonder what kind of purpose someone like him was born for."

"Ohh." Suishen Yao began looking forward to it.

The Blissful Union finally made it into the wormhole expressway and stabilized. Tianming's control of the ship was much finer than before. "It’ll take around thirteen days to arrive. We'll arrive much sooner than they do," Tianming said, much to their relief.

"That's great!"

"How dare they send people to mess up my brother's home? We'll fuck them all up!"

The youths were already itching for a fight. When Tianming finished setting the course, he turned to the Suishens and said, "Come, I'll give all of you a tour. Yaoyao, Little Zhao, Shuangshuang, feel free to pick anything you want! We have battle arts, artifacts, and more."

"Man, my brother-in-law sure is generous!" Suishen Zhao was ecstatic.

"Thank you, Brother-in-law," Suishen Shuang said.

"Brother-in-law? More like uncle-in-law," Suishen Xiyue snickered.

"What’d you say, Mom?" Suishen Yao asked.

"N-nothing.... We'll talk later," Suishen Xiyue said.

"Okay, I'll go pick my treasures now." Suishen Yao hurried away, still dressed in her usual snow-white pajamas that showed off her youthful figure. She didn't even have time to put on proper shoes before she had to run off with Tianming.

"Come with us," Tianming said to Suishen Xiyue and Jiguang. "I have gifts selected for both of you." He had already picked something out for them that would make them much stronger, and the time had finally come for it.

"There's some for us too?" They seemed rather surprised and followed him.
