134: Leaving
🕑 Added 2024-12-19 15:33:26 +0000 UTC"Maybe it's really just a coincidence. It can't possibly be because the author was too lazy to come up with a name for a realm, right?" Yun Wuji muttered aloud, shaking his head.
"...My lord?" The bald guy cautiously lifted his head, his voice trembling as he spoke.
"Ah, right, you're still here," Yun Wuji said, snapping out of his thoughts casually. "I originally planned to grind your bones and mince your flesh, but since you were useful, I'll only crush your body to pieces."
As he spoke, a gentle smile spread across his face, his expression making it seem as though he was offering a great concession.
"My... my lord... what... what about the protection fees?!" The short guy's face turned pale in an instant, his voice trembling as he stammered out the words.
"Sorry, but you are just too poor. What you paid isn't enough to protect you from me," Yun Wuji said with a casual shrug, raising his hand and pointing at the trembling man.
"My lord, wai...aghr!!" The bald man tried to plead, but before he could finish, a powerful force from Yun Wuji's hand descended, crushing his entire body into oblivion.
After killing him, Yun Wuji used fire to burn everything to ashes. He then took some time to bury the unfortunate family, marking their resting place with a small mound of stones before turning and leaving without looking back.
...
Over a month later, the Devil body left the Snow Song Realm and entered the Northern Divine Region, "It seems that as long as I am careful, nothing will happen," muttered Yun Wuji.
The Snow Song Realm is the closest to the Northern Divine Region in the Eastern Divine Region. Most 'devil' people trying to escape the Northern Divine Region pass through it, only to be hunted down by the Snow Song Realm's people.
During his journey to the Northern Divine Region, he didn't encounter any unexpected situations or crises. While this was largely due to his Divine King Realm cultivation, it also showed that the God Realm was safe enough for him to travel with his main body.
Flying through the dark Northern Divine Region, feeling the thick darkness that could cripple most cultivators in the three Divine Regions, Yun Wuji took a deep breath and said, "How comfortable!"
...
While exploring the God Realm with his two bodies, Yun Wuji entered the Golden Crow Lightning Flame Valley on the Blue Pole Star to meet the Golden Crow for the last time.
"Yun Wuji, what brought you here this time?" As Yun Wuji stepped into the Golden Crow's Holy Land, a pair of slender golden eyes appeared, locking onto him, followed by the voice of the Golden Crow.
"Hey, pretty eyes, miss me?" Yun Wuji waved his right hand casually, a smirk on his face.
"..." The Golden Crow remained silent for a moment before responding, "Speak. What do you want from this noble one?"
"How boring, you've changed. You used to be quite feisty and lively, now you sound just like the phoenix," Yun Wuji shook his head in disappointment, and then his expression turned solemn. "I came today because I want to bid you farewell. I'm leaving for the God Realm."
"So the time has come... That was to be expected. You've been stuck at the 4th level of the Divine Origin Realm for a while. If you stay on this plane, your cultivation will stagnate," the Golden Crow said. She seemed a bit surprised but approved of his decision. She had wanted him to leave long ago; staying here would only waste his talent.
After that, she added, "The other Golden Crow's spirit is already waiting for you at the God-Burying Inferno Prison. If you have the opportunity, make sure to meet her."
"Thanks for that," Yun Wuji nodded and turned to leave. However, he suddenly stopped and said, "I really don't want this to be our last meeting. The daughter of the Vermillion Bird is still alive and well; her strength has perhaps even matched that of her father. One day, she may return to the primal chaos, and the fire of the Vermillion Flame will once again shine in this world."
"..." The golden crow's eyes twitched when she heard Yun Wuji's words, but she didn't respond.
Yun Wuji shook his head with a helpless look and said, "Do you really want everyone to forget about your golden flame?" Without waiting for her to answer, he turned and left.
"..." With his departure, only the slender golden eyes remained in the Golden Crow's Holy Land. After a long silence, she whispered, "Maybe it’s not the right choice."
...
In the Frozen Cloud Palace, all the disciples were gathered in the main hall, their faces filled with sadness and anxiety as they looked at Yun Wuji.
Surrounding him were his wives and women, each with a range of emotions displayed on their faces.
"Husband, you're going to a faraway place. You need to be careful," Chu Yuechan said, gently holding his right hand.
"..."
The other women looked at him in silence, their eyes reflecting the same emotions.
Although Yun Wuji had told them he would leave the Blue Pole Star long ago, they were still reluctant to part with him.
"Don't act like I'm leaving forever; at most, I'll return in a year," Yun Wuji smiled helplessly and added with a chuckle, "One year is a very short time for us, it's not even the length of a secluded cultivation session."
"It's short, but I can't bear to be apart from you for so long," Cang Yue said, clenching her thighs with a flushed face.
'Hopeless pervert,' all the women looked at her speechlessly. But they all shared the same feelings as her, waking up in the morning without having him inside them would make them feel too empty.
Yun Wuji laughed and patted her plump butt, then pointed at a small orb suspended at the end of the hall and said, "I've already left this soul orb, so we can stay in contact all the time. We can chat whenever you want."
This orb was created from a part of his soul, allowing it to be used to contact him no matter where he was, except when he was in certain Secret Realms or the God Realm of Absolute Beginning.
The price for making it was also very high, severing a part of his soul to create it, and it took him many months to recover.
But it was a small price to pay, to still see and hear his beloved's voice, even when he was far away.
This time, as he left for the God Realm, Yun Wuji wasn't planning on taking his women with him, even though he had the Primordial Profound Ark, which contained a separate world.
Because his women weren't like Pokémon that he could just casually take with him whenever he wished, they all had their own lives and goals. For instance, Huan Caiyi was doing her best to govern her realm, as it was her pride and responsibility, the glory her clan had left her.
Even if Yun Wuji were to offer her a High-Rank Star Realm, she wouldn't leave her Empire for it.
The same was true for his other women; they all had their own lives. The only one willing to leave was Xia Qingyue, but she wouldn’t go right now either, as she and Yun Wuji already had plans in place.
His women weren’t trophies or items that he could take with him whenever he pleased, disregarding their wishes. They were individuals with their own wills, desires, and goals.
While it was true that they loved him and wanted to always be by his side, they too had their own lives to live.
Not to mention, he still hadn’t established a solid foothold in the God Realm. Why would he risk their lives just to selfishly take them with him?
And most importantly, it’s not like he was going to leave for long. Once he got things on track, he would return, and maybe, just maybe, he could build a teleportation formation to connect the God Realm with this place.
"You girls should stop worrying him so much," Feng Qianhui stepped forward and spoke to the women, before turning to Yun Wuji and saying, "You should leave early to return early."
"Hmm," Yun Wuji paused for a moment before nodding hesitantly. He looked at his women one last time, then turned around and flew away.
"Goodbye, husband!"
"Return safely, Lord Yun!"
Behind him, the voices of his women and the disciples of the sect echoed in the distance. Yun Wuji resisted the urge to turn around and increased his speed, leaving them behind.
Leaving the Blue Pole Star, Yun Wuji glanced back at the beautiful blue planet where he had spent so much of his life.
He then turned and flew north, retracing the same path his Devil Body had taken. His destination, naturally, was the Snow Song Realm.
