Chapter 891: Chapter 890: Closely Following
Hou Niao’s heart was stirred, calculating the ti, it would be just when he arrived at Sizhou Island to kill, at the sa ti his sister Yue Duo arrived at the Nineteen Continents.
To deceive and go alone!
Hou Niao understood in his heart that his senior sister didn’t want him to take risks, and it might also be an agreent with those visitors from the Upper Realm. His identity as a junior brother was rely self-proclaid, not officially recognized by the Xiao Mountain Sword Lineage. The fact that he belonged to the Jinxiu Sword Sect would never change, so it was no surprise that he was excluded.
“Is Brother Hou planning to go take a look?” Hong Kan inquired.
“I want to take a look. Regardless of whether I can enter, the chance to closely encounter an Innate Spiritual Treasure in one’s lifeti isn’t common, right?”
Hong Kan nodded, a common sentint, “I’ve heard that these Upper Realm visitors are entering also to prepare for Jinxiu?”
Hou Niao smiled wryly, “I have just learned of this, how could I assert anything? I understand your aning, Daoist brother, if possible I will definitely lead everyone out, wherever we go is better than idling and waiting to die on Hell Star; but given our realm, we dare not promise anything, do you understand?”
Hong Kan Daoist sighed, “Like duckweed, drifting with the tide, what’s there not to understand? In front of an Innate Spiritual Treasure, not even a Nascent Soul True Monarch can control themselves.”
While soaring in the air, Hou Niao didn’t know how to comfort him, the reality lay before them, too many things couldn’t change by his wishes.
“I don’t know what will happen when I go there. I may return soon, or perhaps not. But if there is still no definite news after ten years, then you should at least gather in front of the Nineteen Continents, there lies your greatest hope. Do your best and accept fate!”
Not long after setting out, he suddenly bumped into a familiar figure, Fairy Shui was surprised, “How coincidental? Where is Lord Hou headed?”
Hou Niao didn’t hide it from her, the appearance of the Innate Spiritual Treasure was well-known, he was just among the few who learned later,
“To observe the Innate Spiritual Treasure. Why did the Fairy co here instead of mingling with them on Sizhou Island?”
Fairy Shui chuckled lightly, “It’s all spoiled by you, what’s the point in mingling? They asked to approach you, hm, probably not with good intentions.”
Hearing her speak so frankly, Hou Niao sighed inwardly, this woman was good-hearted, just a bit muddled on worldly matters; their relationship was profound, even if it happened by accident, he didn’t want this bond to deteriorate in the end,
“True reflection, so things I think should be spoken clearly for the good of both you and .”
Fairy Shui looked at him puzzled, “Why, did I do sothing wrong?”
Hou Niao shook his head, “No, you’ve done nothing wrong, the mistake lies in your constant accommodating attitude! In my presence, you accommodate , in their presence, you accommodate them, have you ever considered if you always do this, you will end up with no results? Hurting everyone?
I advised you to approach them because you have a closest Daoist relationship, that’s an unbreakable connection and imprint, but that doesn’t an you should always go against your heart, being caught in between, until you make a major mistake, either selling out or selling them out.”
Seeing the woman in contemplation, he pointed out, “Learn to say no, even to friends, you shouldn’t always yield, otherwise you won’t earn respect. People respect those with character, persistence, and limits.
Learning to say no is a sign of maturity. You’ve spent too much ti on cultivation.
If you’re with , and over ti they co to ask you about things you deem unimportant, would you refuse?”
Fairy Shui pondered, “Then if I’m with Anchor Chain Cultivators, and you co to ask about them, can I refuse?”
Hou Niao smiled, “Firstly, I wouldn’t put friends in such a difficult situation, if ever I did ask, you should refuse!”
Fairy Shui sighed, “Human relationships are truly complicated, I know my weaknesses, yet I can’t change… No matter where I stand, we are friends, right?”
Hou Niao smiled ambiguously, “Of course, friends forever, and the closest kind.”
The two parted ways, Fairy Shui didn’t follow him this ti, which was a good start. One day she would understand his intentions; being a fence-sitter in this world would inevitably lead to trouble, yet you couldn’t bla her, for she ant well.
But this world has too many precedents of good intentions leading to bad outcos, especially when those Anchor Chain Cultivators treated her as a tool.
No wonder the Upper Realm visitors looked down on Anchor Chain people; indeed, in cultivation conduct, they often fell short, petty and narrow-minded, lacking style and charisma, no wonder they struggled.
It seed if everyone went to Jinxiu, he would need to make arrangents for this woman. Anchor Chain Cultivators were too unreliable, as the masters of this side of the universe, they risked being the first to perish.
Collecting his thoughts, he headed straight for the Nineteen Continents. During this journey, cultivators gradually appeared both before and behind him, all with the sa purpose.
People began to gather, not crowded, but visible everywhere. For their level, Innate Spiritual Treasures were an unattainable existence; what comparison was there between Golden Core and Demi Immortal?
The longing filled them, truly reflecting the mindset of cultivators.
Over a dozen days later, a gigantic, green mist-shrouded island beca clear in his field of view, along with countless cultivators surrounding it, all unable to find a way in.
The shape was indiscernible, the green mist completely obstructed the cultivators’ vision, including their Divine Sense. He didn’t waste effort; the gap was too vast, not within the sa realm.
There were many cultivators surrounding this misty island, thousands; so circled around it then left, so lingered unwilling to go, those leaving left, those arriving arrived; those who could go in went, circling was useless for those who couldn’t.
He didn’t recklessly charge in, like those reckless ones who got bounced out and beca the subject of spectators’ laughter; he circled the mist a few tis, which was large, island-sized, taking a day or two per loop.
His aim was to see if there were familiar faces, if not friends, enemies perhaps; after circling twice, he realized his friends and enemies on this Hell Star were pitifully few.
With no one to communicate with, he could only rely on himself.
Hong Kan Daoist said that only those Upper Realm visitors had a chance to enter, he didn’t know whether it was due to strength? Or did the Innate Spiritual Treasure pick selectively?
His purpose for being here wasn’t just sightseeing, he truly wanted to enter. Not for the opportunity within the Innate Spiritual Treasure, just for one real reason,
His senior sister was inside, he couldn’t let her fight alone.
