As Guan Yue collected more and more glowing lotus flowers, his Heaven and Earth Furnace unexpectedly began to grow!
At that moment, Guan Yue realized that the Sky-Sealing Tower and Sky Peak Tower were also automatically collecting glowing lotus flowers.
He immediately concluded that the Tower Spirit of these two towers was also at work, but why were they not contacting him? Could it be that the artifacts were just that powerful?
At this time, Guan Yue could not afford to think about them; collecting glowing lotus flowers was the priority.
Until dawn, Guan Yue, along with the sword spirit, Tower Spirit, and Aquatic Will Tadpole, regrettably had not finished collecting all the glowing lotus flowers.
In the end, Guan Yue had no choice but to reluctantly leave Moonlight Lake.
The sword spirits, Tower Spirit, and Willpower Tadpoles all returned to the Heaven and Earth Furnace. However, when they returned and saw how many glowing lotus flowers Guan Yue had collected, they immediately cheered and rushed over to start absorbing the energy within.
After a night of collection, approximately tens of millions of glowing small lotus flowers were gathered by Guan Yue and his companions, transforming into energy sources for the sword spirit, Tower Spirit, and Nine Pulse Will. This also enhanced their mental abilities significantly, greatly improving their mental sensing capabilities towards Guan Yue.
From now on, during battles, as long as Guan Yue had even a slight thought, they would immediately sense it and charge forward! Moreover, for Guan Yue's Composite Domain, the mental disturbances emitted from the formation would become even stronger!
The moment Guan Yue jumped out of Moonlight Lake, he clearly felt himself being teleported. By the time he realized what happened, he was already on the shore of Moonlight Lake.
After waiting for a moment, Jin Xi appeared, followed by Lat's Hand. Both of them were soaked but wore smiles on their faces.
Jin Xi spoke first: "Senior Brother, did you collect the Moonlit Lotus?"
Guan Yue nodded and asked her, "What about you? What did you obtain?"
"I got energy from my catch, while I received the Source of Wild Beasts' Power. I'm about to advance to a fifth-tier divine beast. However, Sovereign requires us to find the person who created and used Millennium's Last Love and report back to her immediately."
Excitement filled Jin Xi's small face, but when she mentioned Dream Spin, she showed immense respect.
After hearing what Jin Xi said, Guan Yue immediately realized that Consciousness must have told Lat's Hand the same thing. It seemed that the harm caused by this Millennium's Last Love must have been deeply etched in her heart, unforgettable for life, which explained her intense hatred as a Beast!
Guan Yue looked at Lat's Hand and noticed he was also happy, but not as excited as Jin Xi. He only smiled slightly, indicating that his gains were not as significant as Jin Xi's.
Guan Yue then said, "Let's set off. If we find Millennium's Last Love, we will naturally report to the Sovereign."
As he spoke, Guan Yue opened his Composite Domain again.
After the three entered the Composite Domain, they slowly ascended and then very gradually left the small lake. They flew quickly for three days before finally emerging from the vast forest.
Once out of the forest, Jin Xi relaxed. Throughout their time in the forest, she had remained silent, afraid of offending Dream Spin.
The three finally flew out of the forest area, and after some time, Jin Xi spoke up, "Senior Brother, this time with Beast Wind, I really gained a lot. I feel full of energy and am eager to fight Lan Xuelei right away."
Lat's Hand immediately interjected, "Little Beast, don't get cocky. When I'm fully charged, let's have a match. I'll help you loosen up."
Jin Xi immediately retorted angrily, "Cut it out! You robotic fool, how dare you act up? If it weren't for Sister's sake, I would have beaten you half to death already. You really don't know what's good for you. I've changed a lot since then."
Lat's Hand shot her a glare and said, "I'm not the same me anymore either."
"Well then, let's find an opportunity to spar," Jin Xi said, still fuming as Lat's Hand ignored her. After a night of cultivation at Moonlight Lake, she was feeling quite proud again and was still plotting how to regain her pride from Lan Xuelei.
At that moment, just as dawn began to break, Guan Yue suddenly sensed that there were Disciples traversing through the clouds ahead. He immediately signaled for Jin Xi and Lat's Hand to stop talking.
The three began to listen closely to the voices of the Disciples approaching them.
There were at least thirty people coming their way, all capable of flight and moving at high speed.
They were very arrogant, loudly discussing something that echoed far away. They seemed completely fearless.
Guan Yue could even sense that they were flying in formation; just a few individuals using Origin Energy could lead many others in flight.
Who could these Disciples be?
Guan Yue released his Divine Sense, straining to listen to their conversation.
"This time I'm really happy. We actually captured a princess, and she's from the Vast Empire. This is just so satisfying. I'll be the first to test her out later," a hoarse voice said smugly.
"You old ghost, you always take advantage first. This time it's my turn, Master. Such a vibrant beauty must be quite delightful," a deep, powerful voice immediately replied.
A cold voice then spoke up, "You two disciples really are blind to the situation. I'm still here, and you both think you can rebel?"
The hoarse voice quickly retorted, "Boss, don't you already have over thirty wives? Why are you still competing with us? The number of wives we have combined isn't even half of yours. Every time we capture a big girl or young wife, don't they all end up with you first? What about this time—?"
"What about this time? Do you think I can't see? This is a virgin, and I will be the first to taste her. If she's good, I'll keep her. If she doesn't comply, you'll just tear her apart after using her," the cold voice said.
"Tearing her apart would be such a waste. Boss, don't give her to me," the hoarse voice pleaded anxiously.
The cold voice roared, "You don't understand anything. This is the princess of the Vast Empire. As long as she doesn't comply, she must be killed; otherwise, if the news gets out, it will lead to endless troubles."
"Don't we have backing? What are we afraid of?" the hoarse voice protested.
"Nonsense! Can our backing remain hidden?" the cold voice scolded sharply.
Guan Yue was shocked upon hearing their conversation: the princess of the Vast Empire—wasn't that Wuma Xiangwei? How did she end up in the Dawson Empire?
She herself was an Attainment Disciple, and there must be plenty of Disciples protecting her. How could she have been captured?
Guan Yue immediately signaled Lat's Hand and Jin Xi to prepare for action.
In fact, both of them had heard the conversation as well; however, they thought Guan Yue also wanted to seize the princess of the Vast Empire. So Lat's Hand gave Guan Yue a thumbs up in appreciation, while Jin Xi coldly remarked, "What's so great about a princess? She's just another woman."
Guan Yue didn't have time to explain to them and signaled for both to encircle from the sides while she would intercept from the front.
He knew these people were not ordinary; capturing Wuma Xiangwei meant they were definitely above Attainment level and possibly Disciples from the Eternal Realm. He could not afford to be careless!
After repeatedly reminding Lat's Hand and Jin Xi, Guan Yue quickly donned his armor and suddenly appeared before the group of Disciples.
Guan Yue's sudden appearance startled the group, causing them to almost completely halt their advance.
Their first reaction upon seeing Guan Yue was, "Where did this celestial being come from?"
One of the Disciples immediately displayed his Martial Arts Aura: three circular halos. An Eternal Realm Peak Cultivator. He attempted to intimidate Guan Yue with his level of cultivation.
He then addressed Guan Yue, saying, "Who are you? What is your purpose here?"
Guan Yue calmly sneered, "I am a dignitary of the Celestial Court Department of Wind, Fire, Thunder, and Lightning. I have heard that you are brazenly capturing Princess Wuma Xiangwei and disrupting the peace of Yongning Continent. This will provoke a series of reactions across Yongning Continent, inciting years of war between nations, leading to suffering for the people and unrest in the country. Have you not considered such consequences?"
Upon hearing Guan Yue's words, the group was filled with righteous indignation.
What nonsense! Capturing a princess from the Vast Empire would lead to a series of reactions, suffering for the people, and unrest? Do you think you're scaring a three-year-old?
The Eternal Realm Peak Cultivator thought to himself: This newcomer appeared suddenly; I don't know if he overheard our conversation or truly knows everything.
Let's just deal with him for now.
His expression tightened as he replied seriously to Guan Yue, "Sir, we are carrying out orders. Please do not interfere with our actions."
Guan Yue narrowed his eyes and immediately raised his Laser Gun, aiming it at the Cultivator's leg.
There was no Vital Energy Fluctuation, no sound at all, yet the Eternal Peak Cultivator distinctly felt the damage to his body.
He did not dodge or evade because there were no Vital Energy Fluctuations. However, his leg had indeed been attacked. A wound about three inches long was visible, but there was no blood around it.
He soon felt waves of pain emanating from the wound.
He was confused.
He began to believe in Guan Yue.
Because no disciple from the Yongning Continent could possibly harm an Eternal Peak Disciple without using Origin Energy.
Absolutely not!
The expressions of the disciples around him also began to change.
Could this mighty war god truly have descended from the heavenly realm?
Seeing that he had subdued the entire scene with just one move, Guan Yue felt secretly pleased; this was truly a case of raising a flag to scare the tiger. He then said, "I command you to release the princess of the Vast Empire immediately. Otherwise, I will have all of you arrested right now."
"Oh, such a powerful divine being?" At that moment, an elder stepped out from behind the Eternal Realm Peak Cultivators. His body radiated four martial colors, revealing that he was an Eternal Realm Cultivator.
In Yongning Continent, Eternal Realm Cultivators could be considered peak powers. There were only five Small Ancestor Realm Cultivators, and they did not dare to engage in battle casually.
Thus, only Eternal Realm Disciples could act freely in Yongning Continent.
When Guan Yue saw this Eternal Realm Disciple emerge, he did not feel afraid. He had already anticipated that there would be Eternal Realm Cultivators among this group, and even several of them.
Guan Yue smiled calmly and said, "No one can disrupt the current state of Yongning Continent. Furthermore, we cannot ignite unwarranted conflict that harms innocent civilians."
