It took a while before everyone was able to regain their senses after the shock.
“I really never thought that this world was that big.” Wei Zi Qi rubbed his chin, sighing. Thankfully they had decided to come out back then, if not they would have always only known that small place called the Dong Chen Kingdom, and forever remain ignorant of the outside world. Sima You Yue was able to absorb the new information better, because she had known about the endless universe before.
In the universe there were many tiny planets that even people at the present time are unaware of. Other for those that were already discovered and seen, there were still many other planets in the great distance. There could perhaps even be other life forms outside of their planet! Even if we raised the Sun as an example, and using the Sun as the centre, the planets that were known of included Mercury, Venus and the other eight major planets, a few hundred known moons and perhaps even a few billion little bodies like tiny suns. And how many galaxies there were in the universe would be impossible to know for sure. It felt like the Primordial Lands had their own sun, and the other Capitals were from another galaxy, orbiting around their own Sun and owning their own moons.
The world was indeed larger than we can comprehend! This is the conclusion that Sima You Yue got out of what she had heard. But, no matter how big the world was, their world would always be in their hearts. For their worlds would be as large as their hearts could embrace it.
As she thought about that, she started to calm down and continued cooking her porridge.
Wei Zi Qi and the rest were also slowly accepting the information. It was definitely because they have spent such a long time with Sima You Yue that they were now able to accept things more readily.
“No matter how big this world really is, all we can do now is strengthen ourselves and become more powerful.” Fatty Qu said, gathering his hands in a fist.
“That’s right, we can only rely on ourselves to be able to see the rest of the world.” Sima You Le nodded in agreement. Sima You Yue saw that they were not overwhelmed and discouraged by what they had heard, and nodded in satisfaction.
“The porridge is ready.”
She put out the fire, and Beigong Tang and the rest took out their own bowls to get a bowl of the food, and had a hearty meal along with the vegetables that Beigong Tang had cooked as well.
“The food you cook is really delicious. I ate so much roasted meat that my stomach’s all bloated. If I had known that there was more to come I would not have eaten so much.” Guo Liang rubbed his round stomach, saying.
Guo Pei Pei looked at her brother helplessly, and gave him a light punch. How could someone be this embarrassing? But it was true that this night’s meal was the best meal she had ever had in her life. The Guo Family had also eaten their fill, and had never eaten this much before.
“Awoooo—”
Suddenly, a howl came and awakened the full and sleepy bunch. Everyone got up and looked in the direction of the howl.
Crash—-
Not long later the sounds of a fight were heard, and although it was rather far away, they all felt a sense of impending doom and fear.
“Looking at the ruckus, there must be at least two apex Spirit Paragon spirit beasts fighting one another.” Guo Pei Pei remarked.
“It’s coming from the heart of the mountain.” Sima You Yue said.
“Looks like there are many treasures, which is why this place attracts so many parties for battles and fights over them.” Guo Pei Pei said.
“How do you know that there are treasures here?” Fatty Qu asked.
“I have once gone to another small country, and this small country and similar rules – only those who had not reached the apex ranks of spirit paragons could enter. At that time I saw many aboriginal spirit beasts, and they normally do not attack people unless they felt threatened.” Guo Pei Pei said.
“You’ve been to other small countries?”
Guo Pei Pei nodded, saying. “These small countries do not appear in a regulated manner, but when they do appear, everyone in the Capital will hear the news, and those who fall under the regulations are able to enter. A similar thing happened a few years ago.”
“Sister, should we go?” Guo Liang gazed at the red sky that was overlooking the battle ground, asking.
“No.” Guo Pei Pei said. “At this rate they will be fighting until tomorrow morning. There will not be any use if we go down now.”
“Alright.” Everyone in the Guo family was very submissive to Guo Pei Pei – the moment she made a decision, everyone went along with it. Sima You Yue looked at the calm Guo family, and noted that each of them were probably rather powerful, for they were unfazed at the knowledge that there were apex Spirit Paragon spirit beasts fighting close by. As she was feeling out their strength, the Guo family members were also judging and estimating their powers.
Logically, if they had come from the Yilin Continent, then they should not be that powerful. If they were so calm, they must be either extremely ignorant, or extremely powerful. Especially since there were apex ranking spirit paragon Spirit beasts out there. And from that night’s interactions, it was clear that these people were not ignorant, so it must mean that the latter thoughts were true.
Thereafter Sima You Yue and the rest continued to consult the Guo Family about matters regarding the Little Realm. Since they had eaten and received help from Sima You Yue, they must repay the favour. The Guo Family shared with Sima You Yue and the rest what they knew about the Little Realm, as well as how they might grow in rank in the Little Realm.
Sima You Yue had no dissent as to what they were saying, but listened humbly. Because from the moment that she was aware that there were numerous Divine Rank spirit beasts in this place, then beast taming would become the means by which she would increase her skills while in the Little Realm.
As they concluded their chat, the Guo family took their leave, and were returning to their tents. But as they did so, they suddenly felt a sense of danger, and everyone emerged from their tents once again. Sima You Yue had also alerted everyone of the danger, and called out Little Roar, getting him and Little Roc to spread the news of the danger.
Very soon, Little Roar and team came back, saying, “Yue Yue, there are many Divine Rank spirit beasts coming from the valleys on both sides, and we are now surrounded!”
“How many are there?” Sima You Yue asked.
“At least a hundred.” Little Roar said. Seeing that Sima You Yue had heaved a sigh of relief, he cried out, “I mean, a hundred on each side!”
“What? Why didn’t you complete your sentence the first time? Don’t you lose your temper at me now!” Sima You Yue knocked on Little Roar’s head.
Little Roar looked gloomily at Sima You Yue, wanting to stretch out its front leg to rub his head where she had knocked it.
“What are the grades of the Divine Rank beasts?” Sima You Yue asked again.
“Mostly second or third grade, but only a few are of third grade. None of them are fourth grade.” Little Roc said.
“Other than Divine Rank beasts, there are also a lot of Saint Rank beasts.” Little Roar added.
“Can’t we ride on our flight beasts and escape?” Fatty Qu asked.
“That’s not possible.” Little Roar said. “There are also many flying beasts in the air, if we get up there, we will only expose ourselves as targets.”
As the Guo Family also received the news, Guo Pei Pei walked over after much contemplation, saying to them, “There are many Divine Rank Spirit Beasts surrounding the mountain, I’m afraid that we will break into a fight soon. At that time, we will try our best to help in the fight.”
“Thank you, Miss Guo, for your good intentions.” Sima You Yue smiled, saying, “But we do not intend to fight directly with the Divine Rank Spirit Beasts.”
“Are you planning to fly out?” Guo Pei Pei said disapprovingly. “There are a lot of flying beasts, that’s not a viable path.”
Sima You Yue smiled confidently, saying, “No, we’re not leaving. We are going to stay here.”
