Chapter 5994: What Do You Think About Chu Feng?
Jie Tianran had a gauge on the other powerhouses' resources, which was how he could tell that none had staked everything into nurturing their juniors. They had also opted for a more balanced allocation of resources amidst their ranks.
However, things were going to be different from now onward. The world of cultivation was no longer peaceful, especially with the emergence of the Ancient Era’s powers.
All the powerhouses were starting to realize that they couldn’t rest on their laurels anymore; there was no guarantee there was a future for them. Their only way out was to gamble on God’s Era.
The guidance from God’s Era only further drove that realization. Any further hesitation in that regard would only spell their doom.
And Jie Tianran’s prediction was right.
The other powerhouses had also decided to stake everything into nurturing their talented juniors.
...
Chu Feng had already asked the questions he had wanted to pose to Daoist Starseizer, so he decided to part ways after leaving the teleportation passageway.
“You’re leaving too? But you’re currently wanted by the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect,” Huahua remarked in astonishment.
Xia Xingchen revealed that she was planning to leave too.
“What does the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect count as? Chu Feng roams fearlessly despite being wanted by the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. What do I have to fear? Don’t worry, Huahua. I’m grateful to you and Elder Starseizer for providing me with a place during my time of need, but I still have to find my path in the end,” Xia Xingchen replied with a smile.
Huahua leaped into Xia Xingchen’s arms with tears in her eyes. “But I’ll miss you, big sister Xingchen!”
“I’ll miss you too, but there are things I need to do. Work hard on your cultivation. I’ll come and find you soon.” Xia Xingchen consoled the tearful Huahua like a big sister.
Thus, Daoist Starseizer left with Huahua, leaving Chu Feng and Xia Xingchen behind.
“Come with me, Chu Feng,” Xia Xingchen said.
“Elder, I have matters to attend to,” Chu Feng replied.
“I know you have matters to attend to, but you’ll benefit from coming with me.”
“Oh? What kind of benefits?” Chu Feng’s interest was piqued.
“I’ll tell you when we arrive. You can choose not to go if you don’t believe me,” Xia Xingchen said with a confident smile, looking as if Chu Feng would regret it if he didn’t go with her.
“Of course I trust you. Let’s go, elder.”
The two of them immediately set off.
Soon, they arrived at one of the Heavenly Dome Galaxy’s Lower Realms.
Chu Feng and Xia Xingchen had disguised themselves and concealed their auras when they walked out of the teleportation formation, but Chu Feng’s heart still skipped a beat.
He sensed the hidden aura of an expert. Someone was keeping an eye on this place, and that person was not weak. Furthermore, he detected a sealing formation shrouding the teleportation formation. This sealing formation wasn’t activated, but it could be activated at any moment.
Xia Xingchen quickly dragged Chu Feng out of the area.
As they flew across the sky, they spotted a few other teleportation formations. All of them had the concealed aura of an expert and were enveloped with a sealing formation too.
The security around these teleportation formations was much tighter than the one they had stepped out of, which suggested that Xia Xingchen had not randomly chosen a teleportation formation to enter the realm. She must have known which one was the weakest link.
Only the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect had the means to do something like that on their turf.
“Elder, there’s something special about this Lower Realm,” Chu Feng said.
“You can tell? This realm isn’t occupied by the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect, but the security here is on par with the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect’s headquarters,” Xia Xingchen said.
“Is there a secret to this place?” Chu Feng asked.
“The Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect once found an Ancient Era’s race residing here. That race wasn’t particularly powerful, but they were occupying a vast amount of cultivation resources. However, that cultivation resource couldn’t be taken away, and it needed to be refined before it could be used by the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect’s cultivators,” Xia Xingchen said.
“Are you planning to steal the cultivation resource here?” Chu Feng asked.
“I am, but that place is tightly guarded. It won’t be easy to slip in. We’ll need a helper,” Xia Xingchen said as she led Chu Feng to a remote lake.
“Elder, who’s that helper? Do I know them?” Chu Feng asked.
“Rest assured. That person is trustworthy, but it’ll take her some time to arrive. You should cultivate in the meantime,” Xia Xingchenn replied with a smile.
Chu Feng sat down and began cultivating.
A while later, a person cloaked in black appeared.
Chu Feng took a closer look at the person, but he couldn't see through them.
“I have kept you waiting.”
Chu Feng was surprised to hear a familiar voice. “Elder Huahua?”
“Correct! It’s your Elder Huahua.”
Huahua took off her cloak, revealing her beautiful face.
“Huahua had to sneak out as Elder Starseizer is strict on her,” Xia Xingchen explained.
“You were planning to meet again. The earlier parting was an act,” Chu Feng pointed out.
“How else can we fool Elder Starseizer? With your formation and Huahua’s spirit power, there’s a good chance we’ll be able to slip into that Ancient Era’s land. But Chu Feng, you hold on for a moment. There’s something I need to settle first.”
Xia Xingchen grabbed Huahua and headed off.
Chu Feng didn’t bother asking what they were up to. He continued cultivating.
Xia Xingchen didn’t take Huahua too far away. The two of them traveled a distance away from stopping amidst the clouds.
“Huahua, there’s something I need to tell you.”
“What is it, big sister Xingchen? Feel free to speak your mind.”
“I can hardly be considered young anymore. Many of my peers already have children and grandchildren, but I have not even experienced the taste of love before. To be honest, I want to give it a try. I thought about it, and I figured that since I can’t find anyone suitable among my peers, I could try searching...”
Halfway through Xia Xingchen’s words, Huahua suddenly interjected, “Big sister Xingchen, what do you think about Chu Feng?”
“Chu Feng? I think Chu Feng is not bad,” Xia Xingchen’s earlier awkwardness faded away as she replied with a smile.
“I think he’s not bad too, so I want to try with him,” Huahua replied.
