Chapter 231 The Reaction After the Great Battle
What are your plans now?
Upon hearing Xuanzhen's question, Zhu Chongjiu quickly replied, "Senior, I wish to return to the Dead Black Sea once more."
First, I wanted to let Xiaorou's friends say goodbye to her. Second, one of my brothers is about to undergo an advancement and awaken.
If I advance my cultivation level on my way to the Divine Tree Palace, I fear that some unscrupulous individuals might plot against us.
So I'll have to trouble you again, senior, as I'll be staying in the Dead Black Sea for a while longer.
Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's reply, Xuanzhen stroked his beard and smiled, saying, "What's the big deal? Just stay here in this dead black sea."
As long as you board that void ship, no more Heavenly Emperor-level powerhouses will come to kill you.
Moreover, it happened on my territory.
After saying this, Xuanzhen glanced at the Immortal Emperor Yinglei, who was frozen in place, and Granny Feng, who had been chopped into human form by Zhu Chongjiu, and then with a wave of his sleeve, sent the two flying into the depths of the cosmic void.
Having done all this, Xuanzhen waved his sleeve again, and the two returned to the surface of the Dead Black Sea.
When Zhu Chongjiu looked at Xiao Rou standing on the sea, tears welled up in his eyes.
The moment Xiao Rou saw Zhu Chongjiu, she flashed into his arms.
The two siblings, one big and one small, who were like father and daughter, both shed tears.
Xiao Rou sobbed as she said to Zhu Chongjiu, "Ninth Brother, when I heard Senior Octopus say that you were besieged by the Immortal Emperor, I thought I would never see you again."
At that time, I even thought about sneaking away and running back to the Azure God Realm to find my sister.
Then I had my sister kill all those shameless immortals who only knew how to bully the weak and the many.
With tears welling in his eyes, Zhu Chongjiu looked down at Xiao Rou, who was crying and telling him in his arms, and gently stroked her hair as he spoke.
"Alright, alright, stop crying."
She's a grown woman now; it's embarrassing for her to cry like this.
Besides, Ninth Brother is back now!
As Zhu Chongjiu spoke, he suddenly remembered Xuanzhen who was still by his side, and quickly pulled Xiaorou out of his arms, saying, "By the way, Xiaorou, come and thank Senior Xuanzhen."
Without a senior like him, Ninth Brother would truly be facing the King of Hell.
After hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, Xiaorou merely glanced at Xuanzhen, then casually said thank you before snuggling back into Zhu Chongjiu's arms.
Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu said somewhat awkwardly to Xuanzhen, "I'm sorry, senior."
The child is still young and rather introverted; please don't mind.
Upon hearing this, Xuanzhen quickly waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care.
Even when he looked at Xiaorou, his already hunched back became even more hunched.
Upon witnessing this scene, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "Could it be related to Senior Shuiying?"
After sighing inwardly, he saw a giant octopus and a group of sea monsters watching him and Xiaorou from the sea surface.
Zhu Chongjiu said somewhat embarrassedly to Xiaorou in his arms, "Alright, Xiaorou, if you keep doing this, how will your Ninth Brother ever find a wife in the future?"
Who would want to marry a man with such a clingy daughter?
After hearing this, Xiao Rou broke free from Zhu Chongjiu's embrace, pouted, and huffed!
Seeing this, Xuanzhen quickly tried to smooth things over for Zhu Chongjiu.
Two storage rings appeared in his hands and were handed to Zhu Chongjiu.
Senior, what is this?
Seeing Zhu Chongjiu's questioning expression, Xuanzhen smiled and said, "These are Ying Lei's and Granny Feng's storage rings."
I took them down as I was driving them away.
I think since you've spared their lives for now, you should at least get some reward, right?
So, I took it upon myself to keep their storage rings.
Zhu Chongjiu didn't stand on ceremony with Xuanzhen, and thanked him after accepting the storage ring.
But at this moment, he was inwardly cursing himself, "I don't even know how I got rich?"
How could you forget something so important?
This is a storage ring belonging to a Celestial Emperor, and one of the top-tier Celestial Emperors at that.
Upon seeing the storage ring under Zhu Chongjiu's hand, Xuanzhen waved his hand, and the group returned to the sea.
At the same time, a voice sounded in Zhu Chongjiu's ear: "I'm going back to the seabed to rest first."
When you're about to leave, have Xiaoduo let me know.
I'll see you off when the time comes.
After regaining his balance, Zhu Chongjiu cupped his hands towards the seabed and then released the remaining small creatures from his storage ring.
The moment the little ones came out, Xiao Jin, Xiao Mu, Xiao Tu, Xiao Lei, and Xiong Da all looked at him with hostile eyes.
Zhu Chongjiu scratched his head awkwardly and remained silent.
Finally, it was Xiao Jin who spoke first, his voice tinged with anger and a hint of helplessness: "Ninth Brother, this is a one-time thing, don't let it happen again!"
After Xiao Jin finished speaking, Xiao Mu then complained to Zhu Chongjiu, "Ninth Brother, you really are something else."
Every time danger arises, you have to face it all alone. What do you take us for?
Are we so afraid of death?
If we can't live together, and now we can't even die together, are we still brothers?
After Xiao Mu finished speaking, Xiao Tu, Xiao Lei, and Xiong Da nodded in agreement.
Because the children had been locked inside storage rings, they only knew that Zhu Chongjiu was being besieged, but they didn't know the details.
Xiao Rou, who was released from Xuanzhen's storage ring and knew everything, immediately protested after hearing everyone's dissatisfaction with Zhu Chongjiu.
He first recounted what had happened to everyone, and then scolded the children, "Why did Ninth Brother send you out here?"
Do you want Ninth Brother to watch you die one by one?
Are we to become nourishment for the Celestial Emperor?
If the green hills are left, there is no need to worry about no firewood.
"Ninth Brother left us here, so that at least a thousand or ten thousand years later, when we are strong enough, we can still avenge him..."
When everyone first heard Xiaorou recount the events, they already understood Zhu Chongjiu's predicament.
Now, everyone who had been scolded by Xiaorou lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.
Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu stepped forward to comfort Xiaorou, implying that they might not know the specifics, but ignorance is no excuse!
Then he told the little ones that Xiao Rou would cultivate in the Dead Black Sea from now on, just like Xiao Huo did back then.
Finally, he mentioned sensing that Xiao Hei was about to emerge from seclusion.
After Xiao Hei emerged from the pass, everyone headed to the Divine Tree Palace.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, that will be our final stop on the Void Ship.
While things had stabilized on Zhu Chongjiu's side, the human race's main camp and the immortal race's territory were in an uproar.
Empress Huang Ting was furious after learning of the death of Granny Li Tian.
Ignoring the Human Emperor's obstruction, they slaughtered more than thirty large and small worlds of the Immortal Clan.
He even severely injured and brought to the brink of death a Celestial Emperor.
Just as they were about to storm into the immortal palace of Immortal Emperor Ying Lei, they were forcibly dragged back by a group of human emperors summoned by the Human Emperor.
In the end, the Human Emperor left Ying Lei and Granny Feng to Zhu Chongjiu to deal with personally, and the Immortal Venerable of the Immortal Clan personally warned them that "if Huang Ting is allowed to cause trouble, then the Immortal Emperors will be gathered to annihilate her," thus hastily ending the matter.
The Immortal Clan didn't want to just stand by and watch Empress Huang Ting attack them, but the Ten Lands Organization had also made a statement.
"Because the Immortal Clan condoned the Immortal Emperor's disregard for his promise, what Empress Huang Ting of the Human Clan did this time can be considered as punishing the Immortal Clan on behalf of the Ten Lands."
If the Immortal Clan dares to act in this way again, then the Ten Lands Organization will show no mercy.
In a certain void within the metaverse.
The Immortal Venerable and the nine other Immortal Venerables were gathered together, discussing this matter.
The stunningly beautiful Wind Spirit Immortal Venerable was furiously saying to the Undying Immortal Venerable, "My descendants are now in a truly pitiful state."
That little thief cut off his limbs and peeled off his face.
"Immortal Venerable, shouldn't you do something?"
After saying that, Feng Ling Immortal Venerable waved his hand and released Granny Feng.
When the immortals saw Granny Feng's miserable state, most of them showed expressions of disgust.
After hearing this, the Immortal Venerable glanced at Granny Feng and said, "Under normal circumstances, even I am powerless to deal with the damage left by innate supreme treasures and divine weapons."
Fortunately, the person wielding the divine weapon was not of a high level, and could only use the weapon's sharpness to defend against enemies, unable to unleash its full power.
After saying that, the Immortal Venerable beckoned to Granny Feng with his finger, and Granny Feng instantly appeared in front of him.
At this moment, the halo of laws behind the Immortal Venerable's head began to slowly appear.
Unlike other halos of laws, the halos of the Undying Immortal Venerable are filled with nothingness, like an abyss, capable of swallowing a person's life force with a single glance.
The Immortal Venerable raised his hand and activated the halo of laws behind his head.
At this moment, the immortal lords sensed a certain aura slowly flowing out from within the halo.
Although it is invisible, everyone knows that this is the breath of time.
Having cultivated to this level, everyone has gained some understanding of the laws of time.
It's just that his understanding wasn't as profound as that of the Immortal Venerable.
As the laws of time slowly coalesced around Granny Wind, a breathtaking scene unfolded.
Granny Feng's face, which Zhu Chongjiu had peeled off, began to recover at a visible speed.
A moment later, Granny Feng's appearance had been fully restored, and she even looked younger than before.
Looking at the Immortal Venerable, the deathly aura on his face, which was already shrouded in deathly energy, has now intensified even further.
After doing all this, the Immortal Venerable said to Feng Ling, "Let's stop here for now."
I cannot fully heal your injuries all at once.
Healing from the injuries caused by the divine weapon is proving to be more difficult than I anticipated.
"From now on, bring her to see me once every ten years!"
After saying that, the Immortal Venerable waved his hand, and Granny Feng reappeared beside Feng Ling.
Upon seeing this scene, Thor was about to say something to the Immortal Venerable.
However, the Immortal Venerable interrupted him, saying, "You should stop talking."
Your disciple's cultivation was merely damaged.
With some rare and precious materials and some time, it can be repaired.
Am I supposed to clean up your messes all the time?
When you first asked me, I told you to think it over carefully before you acted.
This gathering isn't a special healing session just for the two of you.
Now let's talk about the losses this incident caused to our Immortal Clan, and our follow-up plans!
