Chapter 611 Grandfather and Grandson
In a valley inside Thousand Fang Mountain Range, Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.
Meng Chuan-who was surrounded by purple light-appeared out of thin air and slowly landed on the ground. The eight cultivatorswho were only hundreds of feet away-didn’t sense him at all. Ignoring the fact that they were merely Supremacy-level juniors, even the Tribulation Eminences in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Heaven realm couldn’t sense Meng Chuan due to his control over the void.
Meng Yu? Meng Chuan smiled and looked at the black-robed youth among the eight cultivators.
Due to the bloodline connection within three generations and the source of the karmic connection, everything confirmed that the black-robed youth was Meng An’s child in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.
My grandson. Meng Chuan felt relieved when he saw Meng Yu with his own eyes. Meng Yu is safe. The next step is to save his mother.
With a thought, Meng Chuan’s two Essence Soul avatars left silently. They headed to Earth Cloud Mystic Realm’s Heaven realm to rescue Long Han.
As Meng An and Long Han had tried their best to protect their son, Long Han had even severed her memories of their son, preventing the enemy from finding him through investigations. Therefore, Meng Chuan could easily protect his grandson.
If I’m not wrong, Long Han’s location should be near the Heaven realm’s Realm Manor. Meng Chuan frowned slightly. Before Meng Chuan came, he had learned about the entire Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.
Even though Seventh Tribulation Eminences might not put too much emphasis on one, every mystic realm in the River of s.p.a.cetime was very precious. Ancestral Master Archean Eon was one example. He simply set up some defenses for his descendants when he found Earth Cloud Mystic Realm. He didn’t need it for himself.
In the outer realm, Sixth Tribulation Eminences mainly wanted to control a mystic realm and become its owner.
The number of experts nurtured in a mystic realm was typically comparable to ten river systems!
When Earth Cloud Mystic Realm was created, its spatial structure was rather special. It was split into three realms-Heaven, Earth, and Man.
The Man realm was the mortal world. It was a place for mortals to live and reproduce. This world’s Essence Energy was thin, making cultivation extremely difficult. Reaching the Supremacy realm was typically the limit. Supremacies could then ascend to the Earth realm.
The Earth realm was where sects, family clans, and other cultivation factions resided. It was also the world with the most Supremacies and Imperial Lords.
In this world, Supremacies made up the foundation when it came to combat strength. Imperial Lords were the backbone of a sect. Tribulation Eminences were the patriarchs of a sect. Only Tribulation Eminences had the right to establish a sect. As long as one cultivated to the Imperial Lord realm, they could ascend to the Heaven realm. Therefore, Imperial Lords would send one of their true bodies to the Heaven realm while typically leaving their other true body in the sect.
The Heaven realm was where all the experts in Earth Cloud Mystic Realm gathered. Imperial Lords and Tribulation Eminences lived here. After reaching the Tribulation realm, they could head to the outer realm!
This was because Ancestral Master Archean Eon had set up a mechanism that prevented them from returning after leaving! Even Tribulation Eminences were unable to bring outsiders into Earth Cloud Mystic Realm.
Realm Manor was the Heaven realm’s core. To enter Realm Manor, one needed to be at the Sixth Tribulation realm.
As expected of a mystic realm. The number of Supremacies here is comparable to ten river systems. Meng Chuan sighed in amazement. The eight people in front of him—including Meng Yu-were all Supremacies. They were common across the Earth realm.
Eight cultivators were gathered in the distance. “Brother Meng Yu, it’s all thanks to you,” said a young man in a purple-gold robe with a smile. “Otherwise, I’m afraid two or three of us would have died in battle.”
“I was training in Thousand Fang Mountain Range,” said Meng Yu with a smile. The black robe he was wearing was very baggy. His hands were hidden in the robe, and his hair was tied up simply. “When I saw Brother Shen and the others fighting a Valiant Fiend, how could I watch and do nothing when you are in trouble? I naturally drew my sword and attacked!”
“Well said. Drawing your sword and attacking!” Young Master Shen sighed. “Sometimes, many so-called ‘good friends’ won’t save people at critical moments. They will even give one a nudge from behind, sending them to their deaths.” Meng Yu nodded immediately.
“Brother Meng Yu, I owe you a favor,” said Young Master Shen solemnly.
“There’s no need for that. Giving me the Valiant Fiend has benefited me enough,” said Meng Yu immediately.
“A single Valiant Fiend’s corpse can’t compare to the lives of the several of us,” said Young Master Shen.
The six companions beside him nodded in agreement.
Young Master Shen continued, “Brother Meng Yu, when we met at Star Sword Sect last time, I discovered that Star Sword Sect was almost controlled by a family line. Those like you, who have ascended from the mortal world, have very few opportunities.”
“What can I do?” Meng Yu curled his lips. “The masters above me can’t resolve it, so what can a junior like me do?”
Star Sword Sect’s patriarchs were still alive.
How could a junior like him question the distribution of resources?
“Neither the opportunity to ascend the Stairway to Heaven nor the opportunity to visit Sword Cave will come by us. We can only carry out sect missions.” Young Master Shen shook his head. “We can’t continue like this. You saved us, so how about this? I’ll invite you to join my Shen family as a guest elder. You should have heard that there are many benefits to being a guest elder.”
“Shen family’s guest elder?” Meng Yu looked tempted, but he was also somewhat hesitant.
“Guest elder? With Brother Meng Yu’s strength, he can indeed be a guest elder,” said Young Master Shen’s other companions.
Meng Yu hesitated for a moment before saying, “Brother Shen, you know how strict the sect is. I have to think about this. I have to inform Master and obtain his permission.”
“Don’t worry. Star Sword Sect’s higher-ups won’t pay attention to such trivial matters,” persuaded Young Master Shen.
“I still have to ask Master about this. I’ll seek you out again if Master agrees, Young Master Shen… When the time comes, Young Master Shen, are you willing to let me be a guest elder?” Meng Yu looked at Young Master Shen.
When Young Master Shen heard this, he smiled and said, “Alright, ask your master for permission. My invitation to you to be a guest elder of the Shen family will always hold. With my status, getting you the position of guest elder is trivial.”
“Thank you, Brother Shen,” said Meng Yu. “Then, I’ll return to the sect to report.”
“Alright.” Young Master Shen watched Meng Yu leave.
“This Meng Yu doesn’t know how to appreciate favors.”
“Young Master personally invited him, but he’s still hesitating,” said his companions. “Shut up.” Young Master Shen frowned. His six companions didn’t dare say a word. These companions were Young Master Shen’s guards. They were here to protect Young Master Shen on his training expedition.
These six trash can’t even fend off that Valiant Fiend. Meng Yu alone could hold back a Valiant Fiend. He alone is stronger than the other six. I didn’t manage to see Meng Yu’s true strength back at Star Sword Sect. If I hire him as a guest elder, I can get him to protect me. If there’s danger, I can get him to be my s.h.i.+eld, Young Master Shen thought to himself. It was very easy for the family clan to arrange for a Supremacy-level guest elder to be a guard. As long as Meng Yu chose to be a guest elder and received benefits from the Shen family, he would have to take responsibility.
I’m in desperate need of a powerful guard, Young Master Shen thought to himself.
The compet.i.tion between the Shen family’s younger generation was intensifying. With Young Master Shen’s status, he couldn’t hire an Imperial Lord to be his guard! He could only hire Supremacies. As for Meng Yu, his strength was definitely at the level of an extremely powerful Supremacy.
The Shen family is one of Mental Demon Sect’s 13 family clans. They deliberately allow their descendants to engage in internecine conflict to determine the strongest. I don’t want to get involved. As Meng Yu flew, he pondered the situation. Furthermore, he made it sound nice. Back when the Valiant Fiend pursued them, they must have sensed that I was around and lured it over. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a coincidental meeting. Dad, Mom, the two of you sure are carefree. You hide in the mortal world to enjoy yourselves while I’m forced to ascend and cultivate. However, I don’t have anyone backing me. I also don’t have any opportunities. It’s really difficult to cultivate.
Meng Yu picked up the black gourd by his waist and drank two mouthfuls of alcohol before leisurely flying towards Star Sword Sect.
Meng Chuan—who was secretly observing his grandson-couldn’t help but laugh. This grandson of his didn’t resemble Meng An or himself. He and An’er had grown up during wartime. Meng Yu’s growth was somewhat different, and his personality was also different.
Whoosh.
Meng Chuan waved his hand.
“Hey-” As Meng Yu leisurely flew, he suddenly saw the scene in front of him change. The s.p.a.ce in front of him changed.
The bright sunlight was no longer visible. Only a faint light enveloped the world around him. A grotto-heaven? Meng Yu stood on the gra.s.s, looked around, and jolted.
Pa!
Meng Yu knelt down and said loudly, “Greetings, Senior, I’m Meng Yu.” With that said, he immediately bowed his head respectfully. “Kowtowing before seeing anyone?” Laughter rang out.
Meng Yu carefully looked up and saw a white-haired, white-robed, middle-aged man standing in front of him and smiling at him.
Upon seeing the other party’s smile, Meng Yu calmed down. It’s fine. I’m not in danger.
