Chapter 442: 9.61 Second Blue Star – Upper Realm
At the Upper Realm of the current world.
This is a separate realm where ascending individuals from the Mortal realm live after becoming a full pledge God. The qi in this place is richer than in the mortal world. It is as described in those ancient books. The greenery is wide and abundant. The animals or beats in this world possess wisdom as long as their cultivation stage is high.
The mountains were tall and beautiful, the air was clean and the waterscapes were clear so that you could peek at what’s within it. This place is like a paradise where God lives.
A mythical beast like phoenix and dragon rules this realm. Feng Houye who was killed by Xia Jieye is one of the famous young heirs in this place. He is friends with the White Tiger Young Lord, Bai Yu, and the Black Turtle Young Lord, Gui Se. He also has an engagement with the Dragon Young Heir, Long Yi.
Now that they haven’t heard anything about Feng Houye after descending into the mortal world, a few months have already passed by and he hasn’t returned to the Upper Realm at all.
In some pavilion of sorts surrounded by blooming plum blossom trees. Three young masters had gathered. One had a wild aura surrounding him. Fangs peek out every time he grins and he looks simple though looks a bit like a brute due to his bulky muscles unhidden by his arms.
He wears a white tiger print robe barely hanging on his body. His solid chest is exposed as is his firm and stone-like abs. Medium length black hair with white highlights, his eyes were slight like how most canines do and it glows with the color of the forest. This young master is the current heir of the White Tiger Clan, Bai Yu. He is also a close friend of Feng Houye and was his admirer.
Seated on his left is a young man in boring gray robes with snake and turtle designs. He looked quiet on the surface as his features were both gentle and calm. His body proportion is a bit slender, just a bit bigger than a female. He had an androgynous face and is said to have a dual personality in him. His long black hair was tied loosely at one side by a single thread and his eyes were a dull gray. One is a female snake and the other is a gloomy male. His name is Gui Se, the Young Lord of the Black Turtle Clan.
Meanwhile on the right of Bai Yu is a man with the highest face value. His whole being excluded is an aura of majesty and arrogance. His appearance had no resemblance to the level of beauty the other two young heirs possess. His chin always rose high and his gaze would always leave a feeling of looking down upon. Pride is shown in his every gesture.
His long golden hair was tied up by a golden hairpin and his slit eyes similar to that of a lizard glowed under the light like aureate orbs. He wears a robe of purple and golden pattern dragons. He excludes the scent of money and gold. A wealthy being above any race. He is the Dragon Prince and the Young Heir of the Dragon Clan that rules the Upper realm. His name is Long Yi.
According to the connection of the Dragon and Phoenix races, he had an arranged marriage with Feng Houye. Though just based on his nonchalant reaction, this person doesn’t seem to care much about the well-being of his supposed fiancé.
At the Pavilion.
On the table are teacups and sweets served by the servants for the Young heirs to enjoy. This small gathering is prepared by Young Heir Gui See who invited the other two to join him for an afternoon tea.
As the host, he started the conversation. His tone and way of speaking are a bit feminine as his female persona is the one who was talking.
Gui Se said his tone was a bit coquettish, “Ah~ you gentlemen finally came. She’s had been waiting for a long time ba~”
The impatient White tiger heir asked, “Gui Se, you brat. Why did you call us over here?” said Bai Yu.
Long Yi just gazes Gui Se with a questioning glance before averting his eyes to drink some tea. He neither reply nor greeted the Heir of Black turtle clan back. He asked what he wanted.
“Speak. Do not waste this King’s time,” said Long Yi. He is as arrogant as always.
“You’re both short-tempered as always. No one likes an impatient man ah~” said Gui Se teasingly yet all he receives is a two glare from two men. “Muh~ Se’er was only playing. You two are both boring ba~”
Bai Yu said, “You said in your message that this is about Ye’er. Talk already! Did something happen to Ye’er.”
“Tsk! Is this about that annoying person? Hmp! Boring…” said Long Yi as he was about to leave.
Gui Se spoke, “Are you really going to leave Dragon Heir? Do you not remember what your elders had told you before coming to meet this lady?”
Long Yi halted his steps and recalled the words his father and elders had told him before he left the house.
“Yi’er, what do you think about the strength of your fiancé from the Phoenix Clan?” his father asked.
“His strength is acceptable. At least he is stronger than the turtle and the tiger of our generation. But father I am stronger than him a few levels above.” answered Long Yi.
“Hm~ that’s indeed right. Ye’er what do you think about his usefulness to our clan?”
“His appearance is acceptable and the only special thing about him is his racial skill. The ability to be reborn after death. If our next generation inherits that plus our unparalleled strength as a dragon we would become the sole ruler of the upper realm.” said Long Yi.
“I see. You are right, our young king? But there is another better option still.” said an elder with a smile.
Confusedly asked Long Yi, “What does first elder mean?”
“Allow this old man to tell the young king. Rumors had spread that the Phoenix Clan had descended in the mortal realm for a special reason. It was said that there is a mortal in the human realm who possessed a golden soul like those True Gods in myths.”
“A True God? But why would it be in the mortal realm?”
“The said being was born in the vessel of a human but his soul is pure gold and full of merits. If we can get this human to bear the Young King’s children the next generation of dragons would be invincible in all realms.”
“The dream of ascending to a high-tier world would no longer be a dream. Our race would be allowed to leave this planet and head to another universe like what was written in the Book of Legend.”
Long Yi asked, “Is this rumor credible or not? Whom did it come from?”
“The news came from the Underworld. It was the Black Turtle clan who handled the problems of the afterlife who told our clan about it. They said that few mortals were dying too much in these past months and heard them saying that a golden soul possessor was born in the Capital city in the human world. It must be half real.” said his father.
“Do father and the elders want this king to descend in the mortal realm?” asked Long Yi.
“If father’s real size hadn’t gotten too big for the mortal realm to be unable to accommodate this Emperor then father would have gone down. Plus the elders had the same size as your father none of them can descend with destroying the little mortal realm. Yi’er we can only leave it to you. If you are confused then you should meet the young heir of the Black Turtle Clan. He had sent you an invitation to an afternoon tea. Go ahead and gather more information.” said the Dragon Emperor.
Once the recollection of his memories is finished, Long turns back and sees Gui Se’s meaningful smile. He snorted and returned to his seat. His goal was to get more information about that human with a gold soul. At the very least he must get him instead of the other two before him.
“Hmp! This king is willing to listen. Do not speak nonsense or… You’ll get it from me!” said Long Yi as he threatened Gui Se.
The other two heirs couldn’t help but tremble under his aura. Among all four mythical races which ruled the Upper Realm, the Dragon Clan is said to possess the strongest strength and capabilities in fighting.
Gui Se turned his male persona as the female one was scared by Long Yi.
A gesture of surrender by raising both of his hands was done by Gui Se. “Come on, man~ Se’er is only teasing you a bit. Your truly short-tempered task! tsk!” said Gui Se.
Long Yi snorted, “Gui control that woman in you. She is getting annoyed and doesn’t know what fear is.”
Everyone in this realm calls the male version of Gui Se Gui while calling his female persona as Se’er. Both are Gui Se but they have different personalities. Se’er loves to tease handsome men as he is the snake part of the Black Turtle while Gui is the turtle part which is the source of their wisdom and calmness but he is slick like an old man.
Bai Yu is all brawls and has a low IQ so he doesn’t know what his friends are talking about. All he understands is that something had happened to his beloved crush, Feng Houye and only Gui Se knew what happened.
The White Tiger Heir asked, “What are you guys talking about? Isn’t this because Ye’er is missing? Tell me now. Gui, what happened to him?”
“Tsk! Brute you should calm down. The fiancé doesn’t even care much about Feng Houye but you, a mere friend, are worrying yourself to death~” said Gui Se. “As for Se’er, you know that girl doesn’t listen to me either. King Yi should be used to it by now.”
“She is annoying,” commented Long Yi.
The mentioned Se’er persona comes out once more. “You are annoying. Your whole family is annoying. Stupid Dragon! Beh~”
It ticked the nerves of Long Yi’s badly and gave Guise a flick that could shake his soul. The one who was flicked was Se’er. In the soul domain of Gui Se, his female persona is bawling like a baby while holding her swollen forehead.
Gui Se suffered a bit of headache, “Urg~ you didn’t hold back in that flick just now. My head is dizzy~ and she keeps wailing in my head.”
“Hmp! Stop wasting this King’s time. Tell me what you know.” said Long Yi.
“Fine. Feng Houye is missing. The Feng Clan went to our clan asking to check if he had landed in the Underworld but upon checking Feng Houye didn’t enter the Underworld at all. But the Feng Clan said that his soul stone had exploded and his life and death is unknown.” said Gui Se.
The Dragon Heir and White Tiger Heir were astonished. They couldn’t believe something had happened to the Phoenix King’s Heir in the human realm. After all, the strongest being in the Mortal realm is only ants who couldn’t even ascend. A mere Demigod wouldn’t be able to kill a God-like Feng Houye.
Gui Se smiled and asked, “What do you think about Feng Houye’s status?”
“This… Still alive. Maybe? No! He must still be alive?” said Bai Yu in disbelief. He doesn’t want to believe that his beloved is killed by someone in the lower realm. There aren’t any being stronger than them in that place.
Long Yi on the other hand answered with certainty. “He is dead.”
Bai Yu yelled and grabbed Long Yi’s robe. “NO. NO. Take that back. Ye’er is still alive!!!”
Long Yi twisted his hand and threw him in the near river. His actions were casual but powerful. Bai Yu flew like a broken kite straight to the river. The water was cold and it was enough to calm the mad tiger down.
On the other hand, the person who threw him off acted like he touched something disgusting. He took out a clean handkerchief in his robes, wiped his hands, and threw it away. He rearranged his crumpled robes and threw a disdainful glance on Bai Yu.
“Calm down, You stupid cat. This King is only telling you the facts. Did you really think no one in the Mortal Realm couldn’t kill a God? There is at least one. The one whose name is recorded in the Stone of ascension. The very first name recorded as a God but chose not to ascend.” said Long Yi.
Gui Se said, “Are you talking about that person? Impossible didn’t they say he had long perished for staying in the mortal realm for too long?!”
“Father says that it is impossible to kill that person. Heaven had gifted him immortality as a reward for being the first person to reach the level of ascension. Though he was also punished and stripped of his original physical vessel. It was said he roams in the human realm as the Strongest Ghost King.” said Long Yi.
