Chapter 1111: Chapter 1110: Return to the Sect

Spreading his empty hands, Qinghe felt a sense of melancholy as if something had been lost.

So, the boss who forced himself to stay by his side for three hundred thousand years had finally left?

Now that he no longer needed to stay by Ashy Bean’s side and had finally gained his freedom, Qinghe didn’t feel any relief or joy. Instead, his heart felt hollow and carried an indescribable aftertaste.

"Cough cough cough—" Fairy Eternity started coughing violently. The battle hadn’t been easy; her Immortal Power suppressed the Power of Silence, and the Power of Silence likewise restrained the Immortal Power.

Their collision meant that Fairy Eternity was also not lightly injured.

"Fairy, are you alright?" Lu Yang took quick strides over, embracing the swaying Fairy Eternity who nearly stumbled and fell.

Looking at the battered Fairy Eternity, Lu Yang’s heart tightened.

Previously, Fairy Eternity had been an Immortal Soul, intangible, and this was the first time Lu Yang had touched Fairy Eternity’s body, but it was under such circumstances.

The farewell from the Fairy just before was like a last goodbye, scaring Lu Yang out of his wits.

Fairy Eternity had delayed regenerating her Immortal Body but had forcibly done so during the battle, undoubtedly at a irreversible cost.

Lying in Lu Yang’s arms, Fairy Eternity managed a weak but smiling voice, "How about that, the Immortal did what she said, I could handle her without Miss Yun. I said I would cover for you, and I did."

"I thought it would end with us both perishing, that’s why I bade you farewell. Luckily, this Immortal was one step ahead..."

"Chief!"

"Chief Housekeeper!"

"Immortal Sister!"

Qinghe, Yun Mengmeng, and Jin Caiwei surrounded Fairy Eternity, their expressions filled with concern.

"But she really wasn’t easy to deal with." Fairy Eternity tried to stand up several times, but she lacked the strength and inevitably failed.

"Fairy, don’t talk, I’ll ask Eldest Senior Sister to come and save you right away!" Lu Yang said anxiously, as the Fairy didn’t seem alright at all.

"I don’t need it, in my current state, even Miss Yun can’t help."

Her body gradually dissipated and once again became a soul, sliding into Lu Yang’s Spiritual Space. She lay down skillfully on the bed, and her voice, weak as a thread, came from it.

"I originally needed a hundred years to recover my Immortal Body, but now that I’ve forced its recovery, it might take two hundred years to fully recover. Little Yang, I’ll be bothering you for a bit longer..."

"No trouble at all, as long as you’re fine, you can stay as long as you want!" Lu Yang quickly said, as long as Fairy Eternity was fine, anything was acceptable.

Qinghe, Yun Mengmeng, and Jin Caiwei all breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that there was no serious issue.

Qinghe’s mind flashed with a question. Why did the chief need to stay in Lu Yang’s Spiritual Space? Seeing that Yun Mengmeng and Jin Caiwei didn’t react much, could it be that the chief had always been staying there before this?

"It’s, it’s over, right?"

Zhu Tian timidly asked himself in a whisper, the battle having truly frightened him, even bringing the thought of going back to sleep.

Originally, he chose to sleep during the Ancient Times because he witnessed the Four Ancient Immortals battling the hidden mastermind, thinking it too dangerous back then. Sleeping for a few hundred thousand years, he figured the world would calm down by the time he awoke.

Yet, as luck would have it, he woke up to the same level of battle happening right above his head, almost claiming his dear life.

"No, no, I am the Chosen One who initiated the struggle of the Great Era; if I were to sleep now, wouldn’t I miss this great conflict?"

Zhu Tian was actually enjoying his current life; he was the publicly recognized ruler of the Demon Territory, the revered Demon Emperor—a status he couldn’t enjoy during the Ancient Times.

At most, it was just bad luck, establishing the Demon Nation when Jiang Lianyi awakened, and now again coinciding with the battle between two immortals.

Wait a second, how come every time something happens, Elder Brother Lu Yang is present?

"Zhu Tian, what happened here, who was just fighting, and where is Demon City?"

"Hello, Sister Jiang, hello, Sister Ao."

Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi happened to be in the Demon Territory, sensing the terrifying battle that erupted in Demon City, they quickly rushed to investigate. However, by the time they arrived, the battle had ended, and the vast Demon City had vanished without a trace, leaving only Zhu Tian muttering to himself.

"It’s Elder Brother Lu Yang!" The two women had sharp eyes and immediately spotted Lu Yang at the site where Demon City used to be; they didn’t even bother to ask Zhu Tian and flew over directly.

"Miss Qinghe is here too!" Seeing Qinghe, whom they had not seen for over three hundred thousand years, brought the two women great joy.

"Sister Ling, Sister Lianyi."

The arrival of the two women dispelled the depressing atmosphere at the scene. Qinghe had heard about the awakening of Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi early on but was too tied up to leave.

"What happened just now?"

After hearing Lu Yang’s account, the two women couldn’t help but feel nostalgic. Ao Ling was more touched than Jiang Lianyi, who had slept early and was unaware of the affairs of the Fire Dynasty and Ashy Bean. It was after the establishment of the Fire Dynasty that Ao Ling had gone to sleep.

"Is Immortal Sister alright?"

Lu Yang glanced at Fairy Eternity, who was lying in bed asleep in the Spiritual Space, and replied, "She’s fine, just sleeping."

Just didn’t know what kind of dream Fairy Eternity was having, her lips curved in a smile.

Fairy Eternity stealthily opened one eye, confirming Little Yang had left, and then went back to sleep.

"The techniques of the Timeless Immortal Sect really do work."

"What do you plan to do now?" asked Jiang Lianyi.

"Return to the Sect."

"Then we will go back with you."

Jiang Lianyi and Ao Ling decided to follow, after such a significant event, they certainly could not just leave after finding out what happened; moreover, Qinghe was bound to accompany them to Seek Dao Sect, and it would be a good opportunity to catch up along the way.

"How should we deal with Daoist Ming Yuan?" Yun Mengmeng inquired, as the battle had begun with Daoist Ming Yuan being flattened by Jin Caiwei and left in Demon City.

Lu Yang pondered for a moment, thinking Captive Peak could handle one more or one less at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage; the fight had been a bolt from the blue for Demon City, and Zhu Tian indeed had it hard. He decided to leave Daoist Ming Yuan to Zhu Tian, after all, a Demon Emperor paired with an Eighth Star Spirit Chef would have some prestige when spoken about.

"Daoist Ming Yuan is left to Zhu Tian to handle, let’s go home," Lu Yang called out.

Before departing, Jin Caiwei restored Demon City to its original state.

On the way home, Lu Yang was surrounded, with Yun Mengmeng on his left hand side, and Ao Ling, Jiang Lianyi, Qinghe, and Jin Caiwei on his right, all chatting and laughing.

Seems like he was the only one not a Semi-Immortal?

Lu Yang, escorted by five Semi-Immortals, arrived at Seek Dao Sect, a reception not even the Four Ancient Immortals had enjoyed, such a prestigious welcome truly warranted Eldest Senior Sister’s personal reception at the gate.

"Eldest Senior Sister..." Seeing Eldest Senior Sister, Lu Yang felt like he had found his pillar, and was extremely excited.

"Xiao Zhi, we are back!" Yun Mengmeng greeted her cheerily. This trip had indeed been quite an eye-opener.

"Miss Yun, cough cough, to think that I would live to see you again..." Immortal Fairy awoke and floated out from the Spiritual Space.

Seeing Immortal Fairy weakened and disheveled, Yun Zhi showed a puzzled expression on her face. She opened her mouth, but in the end, she held back what she wanted to say.
