Chapter 593: Changing
Translator: Sigma Editor: Sigma
Shi Yan, Zhu Yi, and Yue Ying gawked. They didn't know what happened out there that made the sun, moon, and stars appear in the sky at the same time.
"You are from the Divine Great Land. Do you know what’s going on?" Shi Yan asked the two precursors with a silly face.
Zhu Yi and Yue Ying shook their heads.
"Forget it. We should get to the Sect first. From this current situation, I can say the Grace Mainland is having some great changes. We don’t know what’s going on here. Perhaps, there’re some books in the Sects that mention it. We should study carefully," Zhu Yi said uncertainly.
Shi Yan and Yue Ying forced a smile then nodded.
The three of them left together.
They had been running at fast speed for a while, but the sun, moon, and stars in the sky seemed to have no new changes as though the Grace Mainland would be like this from now on.
Leaving that quiet and immense wasteland area of the Shady Firmament Old Mound, the three of them then accelerated to the fastest speed to reach the Wonderful Stone City. All warriors in the Wonderful Stone City were scared by the great change of the sky. They didn't know what was going on there, so they were all longing for Zhu Yi.
As Zhu Yi was the city master of the Wonderful Stone City, right when he got back, he had checked out the situation of the city first. He got to know that Yun Xiu had brought the four juniors, Luo Xiao, Luo Meng, Li Mu Yu and Bai Hui Quan back to the city earlier.
Zhu Yi sighed discreetly.
"What did you meet in there? Where’s Ye Xiong?" Yun Xiu took the four juniors. After they came back, she hurried to ask for the details.
Yue Ying and Zhu Yi immediately put on the sorrowful countenance, groaning insufficient details.
Yun Xiu felt her heart sinking. From their expressions, she guessed the Ye Xiong was more unfortunate than lucky. However, she didn’t have a deep relation with Ye Xiong or had witnessed that scene, so she wasn’t too upset.
"Elder Yue, Elder Yun, I think you guys should come back to the Radiant God Cult and report what we’d experienced in the Shady Firmament Old Mound to Master Yun Hao." Ye Xiong’s brows slammed together. "I’m going to send the information immediately to tell them the details so as we can have a proper preparation."
Yue Ying nodded.
Although Yun Xiu didn't know the situation clearly, she didn't ask much. She knew that thing that happened in the tombs area wasn’t good.
"Shi Yan, you certainly had some big harvests this time. After you get back to the Radiant God Cult, you should always be alert. I’ve always felt that the changes in the sky are somehow related to you…" Zhu Yi mused then talked in a somber tone.
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu looked at him with fright.
Shi Yan was also surprised. "I think you misunderstood something? What does it matter to me?"
Shaking his head, Zhu Yi said, "I can’t say it clearly. I just have that feeling."
Shi Yan beamed a forced smile, but he still talked indifferently. "Alright, I'll be more cautious. See you later when we have time."
Now as he got the Ethereal Crystals, he was a little bit agitated. He wanted to build the massive-scaled Teleport Formation to form the connection with the Endless Sea.
Immortal Island also had a Teleport Formation. However, the distance it could teleport was relatively short. When he left the Endless Sea, he got to know about the space nodes from Yang Tian Emperor. The space nodes were the directions of movement between Teleport Formations. As long as he could get the precise space nodes, his Teleport Formation could perform its functions.
Of course, he wasn’t so sure that the Teleport Formation he was about to build could connect to the Teleport Formation in Immortal Island using space nodes.
Anyway, the Teleport Formation in Immortal Island was a low-level one.
"Where is Ye Chang Feng?" Shi Yan hesitated for a while, but couldn’t help but ask. After he had known about the uniting of nine heaven flames, which would give him a new magical destiny, from the Shady Firmament Old Mound, he kept thinking about it.
Ye Chang Feng had the Purgatory True Flame in his body, which was one of the heaven flames. He wanted to know if Ye Chang Feng knew about these mysteries. It could be a good preparation for him in the future.
"He went with Li Zheng Rong to the General Sect of the Spirit Treasure Sect. He won’t come back shortly. If you don’t have any important business to do, you can go there. Anyway, the current situation is a little bit special…"
"Alright, I got it. If Chang Feng comes back, please tell him to visit me at the Northern Gem Mountain."
"I’ll definitely do it for you."
Since Zhu Yi had found Shi Yan’s specialties in the Shady Firmament Old Mound, he decided to create a good relationship with Shi Yan.
Shi Yan's potentials were too intimidating. Not only his strong fighting competence, but he also had some attainment in using space power.
To young Spirit Realm warriors like him, Zhu Yi always appreciated. He was clear that he had to count on Shi Yan in the future
"Then I’m going to leave first."
Shi Yan wasn’t lengthy. After bidding farewell to Zhu Yi, he left with Yue Ying and Yun Xiu to the Radiant God Cult.
Along the way, Yue Ying, the one who had been hostile to him, suddenly became so friendly. She often asked him about his cultivation as though she was his real precursor guiding him step by step to help him kick away the obstacles in his cultivating path.
Yue Ying’s changed manners made Yun Xiu, Li Mu Yu, and Bai Hui Quan surprised a lot. They had a vague thought in their hearts.
"What happened? When we first arrived, didn’t you hate him a lot? Why do you seem to turn into another person after getting out of the Shady Firmament Old Mound?"
Yun Xiu used a secret technique to talk to Yue Ying because she couldn’t reason why.
"Yun-mei, later on, you should be more polite to Shi Yan. Don’t make grudges against him…" Yue Ying answered her, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
"Why?"
"He, how can I say. His competence is really formidable. I can't tell you the details. Anyway, listen to me, you should treat him as if he’s the Grand Elder. At some point in the future, you have to beg him for his favor, perhaps."
"Me? Begging him?"
"Wind changes. We don’t know what earth-shaking transformation will happen in the Divine Great Land. I always feel that Shi Yan will be one of the most outstanding warriors in the Divine Great Land in the near future. Creating a good relationship with him shouldn't be a bad thing for you later."
"Yue jie, are you sure?"
"I’m sure!"
Yun Xiu didn’t say anything, but waves were rising in her heart. Her sight lay on Shi Yan with a different feeling.
"Mu Yu, from now on, you have to treat Shi Yan as your brother. Do not provoke him. You have to establish a good relationship with him!"
After giving advice to Yun Xiu, Yue Ying looked at her apprentice Li Yu Mu, talking to her with a serious complexion.
"Why? Teacher, what happened to you?" Li Mu Yu was full of grievance. "Why do you have to support him? What does he have? Isn't he just a person who depends on external forces to be stronger than the others? Teacher, are you afraid of him?"
"Stupid!" Yue Ying cursed under her breath. "Don’t babble. You just need to remember that. Even if you have to offend the Grand Elder, you can’t offend Shi Yan! We can’t provoke this man, understand?"
Li Mu Yu was more frightened. She had never seen her teacher angry that much. She immediately shut her mouth, didn’t dare to talk more.
Along the way, Yue Ying and Yun Xiu had treated Shi Yan with a magically changed manner. They were friendly and caring as if Shi Yan was their long lost relative. However, this irritated Shi Yan.
He understood the reason why these two women had changed their attitudes to him was that she had found his secrets.
To the change in their manners, he just enjoyed it naturally.
He always thought about taking his relatives and friends in the Endless Sea to the Divine Great Land. Although Yun Hao had treated him well, the Radiant God Cult didn’t have only Yun Hao. Even if Shi Yan wasn’t afraid of the elders like Yue Ying, the power of his friends in the Endless Sea was much weaker than them. If Yue Ying, Yun Xiu, and the others wanted to trouble them, it would be really difficult.
Shi Yan wasn’t a narrow-minded person. When he found that Yue Ying and Yun Xiu started to establish the relationship with him carefully, he also put away his arrogant manner, proactively talking with them.
As Yue Ying and Yun Xiu could sense the changes in his manners, they felt happy, and suddenly they thought that he wasn't too bad. They were getting along well now.
After they got to the Northern Gem Mountain, Yue Ying pondered then talked to Shi Yan. "Earth and heaven spiritual Qi in the Northern Gem Mountain is too thin. I didn't know that. That's why I'd arranged you to stay here casually. Yeah, if you agree, I will arrange a better place for you, which is much better than the Northern Gem Mountain. What do you think?"
"Thank you. You don’t need to bother. I appreciate you, precursor, already," Shi Yan smiled and denied.
The Northern Gem Mountain had dilute spiritual Qi, but its location wasn't bad. It was pretty far from the center of the Radiant God Cult, but it was close to the Spirit Treasure Sect.
To warriors, a place with thick spiritual Qi was good for them, but if they had abundant Essence Qi, they didn't need to be dependent on spiritual Qi of earth and heaven.
Shi Yan had the Holy Spirit God who had an innate talent of gathering spiritual Qi from everywhere. If he could arrange the Northern Gem Mountain better, with the Holy Spirit God's assistance, he could still make some changes.
And, the most important thing is, this place was far from the Radiant God Cult. He could do things easily without being sensed or spied on. For example, building a massive-scaled Teleport Formation.
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu didn't know why he denied their offer. They thought that he didn't want to form a connection with them. They were distressed a little bit. However, after he had explained, they felt better.
"What do you want to do in this remote area? Ah, yeah, does the Cult Master know what you want to do?" Yue Ying was worried, couldn't help but ask.
"I want to keep it on the down low for a while. I think, with his wide vision, he won't mind it," Shi Yan smiled, not considering it important.
Well, Yun Hao didn’t even care about the fact that he could fuse the Flaming Sun power. Building a Teleport Formation to transport some warriors from the barbarian area wasn’t something he would ask about.
Yun Hao was a friendly and straightforward man. If Shi Yan could bring his family from the Endless Sea, they could be of assistance. As Shi Yan was a disciple of the Radiant God Cult, his force was considered the Radiant God Cult’s. It should be a benefit to Yun Hao though.
Shi Yan used his train of thought to predict the others'. He thought that if he were Yun Hao and he didn't care about the other matter, he wouldn't bother with this small thing.
Yue Ying and Yun Xiu didn't know what he wanted to do. But since he didn't want to talk more, they wouldn’t inquire further. They bid him farewell and hurried to report to Yun Hao on what had happened in the Shady Firmament Old Mound.
As they had left, Shi Yan didn't talk more, starting to prepare to build a big Teleport Formation inside a mountain of the Northern Gem Mountain.
