Chapter 1542: Disclose Feelings

Sigma_ SSins

Zi Yao was sitting on the fulgent, seven-colored crystal throne on the snake head. Her eyes were like precious gemstones, her smile a blooming flower. She was utterly beautiful.

Zi Yao was still herself, but her makings were more charming than previously. In Shi Yan’s eyes, no one could beat Zi Yao’s glamor now. Even Mei Ji was one level lower than her.

It was all thanks to Hui’s soul. She had gotten the soul of an Absolute Beginning creature and transformed completely.

She was wearing a violet dress, her eyes brighter than snow. She lazily leaned on her side on the crystal throne, giggling and talking to Shi Yan.

Shi Yan resized his massive body and stayed in his human form. He sat with Zi Yao on the crystal throne and explained to her with a forced smile that his rocketing energy was actually from Desolate.

“I thought I would perish soon. I had never expected to defeat its soul. I’m still scared.” Zi Yao beamed at Shi Yan and then bit her lower lip. She reached out to Shi Yan’s hand, pulling him close to her and then leaning against his torso.

“I thought it was only me with my affection. I thought that you didn’t have me in your eyes and that I didn’t have a room in your heart. Seeing you get stronger every day, I felt smaller. I thought you were getting further and further away from me. You become someone I could never touch...

She murmured her feelings that she had been hiding for so many years. “I had given up because I thought I could never catch up with you. I couldn’t help you in anything and became a rope tying you down and keeping you from soaring up into your sky. I tried to follow you. I cultivated hard to improve my realm...”

She lifted her head and looked Shi Yan in his eyes. “But you’re too fast so it was hard to imagine. I could only open my eyes wide and helplessly watch you get stronger and stronger. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t shorten the distance between us. I hated myself at that time!”

Shi Yan didn’t know how to reply.

From the time they were in Raging Flame Star Area, he knew her feelings. But at that time, he had only Xia Xin Yan in his heart. And he only wanted to break through his realm and find a safe place for Grace Mainland which was about to run out of energy. He wanted to settle his family and friends who had trusted him wholeheartedly.

Thus, he had chosen to ignore Zi Yao’s love. After entering Agate Star Area, he had continuously fought around. He never stopped in any place.

At that time, Zi Yao also had a better chance. Lin Xin had accepted her as her disciple. They hadn’t met each other for many years and when they met again, they didn’t spend time for each other because of Shi Yan’s advancement.

When they met again, Zi Yao couldn’t reach him. She was left far behind him and the distance between them was only getting longer.

Shi Yan thought that Zi Yao’s image wasn’t carved deeply in his heart. But when Hui occupied her and Zi Yao was enslaved, he finally knew that Zi Yao had a room in his heart, a place where he had imprinted her image that would never fade away.

“Today, for me, you didn’t care about your life. You risked your life to help me resist it. Finally, I know you have something for me in your heart...”

Zi Yao suddenly had a bright smile that she couldn’t conceal. It was because her bitter wait for so many years was now fruitful.

The giant body of the twelve-headed snake emerged as the sea water lowered. It occupied almost the entire continent. Countless pieces of broken stars were scattered around the snake. Also, so many massive pieces hovered in the void like giant specks in the galaxy, moving around the snake.

Except for the two of them, this area didn’t have auras of any living beings.

They could show their feelings and enjoy a rare, private moment. On this strange continent in a foreign territory, they told each other their hidden emotions that they had kept for a long time...

Time flew quietly...

Gradually, many strange battleships appeared in the dark sea of stars. Many warriors were moving around the battleships, their realms high.

Also, there were some warriors hovering directly in the void. They didn’t use any battleship or war chariot.

The world-destroying battle in the corner of the territory had finally alerted the warriors in the far areas. The shockwaves from Shi Yan and Yuan’s battle had torn the territory barriers, which attracted experts in the territory and adjacent territories to come and see.

Shi Yan and Zi Yao felt many creatures approaching. They stopped talking. Zi Yao changed her mind and a thick mist diffused, covering the space around them.

In the thick mist, the twelve snakes shrank in the world of beautiful rainbow bands.

That world slowly shrank until it became a light dot that disappeared into Zi Yao’s pupil. She and Shi Yan stood up and released the Soul Consciousness to check around.

Shi Yan’s soul expanded like invisible waves and reached an area where the others were gathering.

A group of warriors from different races and different realms appeared in his eyes. Most of them were explorers from Empty Land, a group of native warriors, and some from other nearby territories.

Among several thousand warriors, a figure caught Shi Yan’s attention. His eyes brightened as he pulled Zi Yao’s hand and said, “Let’s go.”

After that, Shi Yan and Zi Yao vanished as if they were smoke and mist.

————————-

Yvelines and some members of the Heavenly Eye Clan were in the crowd and watching the area where mist hovered.

He was taking some apprentices on a field trip to a corner of the Heavenly Eye Clan’s territory. He was teaching them how to comprehend their power Upanishads when he found that the space barrier near them was smashed. Curiously, he took his students to the adjacent territory from the broken space barrier.

He knew this territory called Wavy River was right next to their Heavenly Eye Clan’s Musing Rain Territory. There was a passage that linked Wavy River Territory and Musing Rain Territory. In fact, Yvelines, Masha, and Adams had gone through that passage to enter Empty Land and then the Sea of Annihilation.

From the shattered barrier spot, as soon as he got into Wavy River Territory, he felt the earth-shaking energy impact.

The commotion was billions of miles away from them, but they could still feel it clearly. Led by curiosity, he brought his apprentices to this place. They all wanted to see what had just happened to Wavy River Territory.

When they got to the place, they found that the area was covered in thick mist. They couldn’t see anything inside that mist.

Many warriors had come earlier than Yvelines and his students. Many of them were famous experts of Wavy River Territory at the Immortal Realm. Those experts didn’t dare to enter the mist. They were observing from a far distance.

Yvelines just watched from a distance too.

“Teacher, what could be the realms of the experts who had joined that battle?”

A member of the Heavenly Eye Clan who had only King God Realm cultivation base was very curious and eyeing the mist eagerly. “Why does no one dare to go in there and check?”

“You are stupid! Of course, they know that the battle at such a level isn’t something that they can observe nearby. They have to stay far away to watch.”

A pretty girl of the Heavenly Eye Clan glared at that young man and scolded.

“Sister, what kind of level are you talking about?” asked the young man excitedly.

The girl checked Yvelines standing next to them and then stuck her tongue out. She said cutely, “Of course, they are at a more terrifying realm than our master. Otherwise, our master wouldn’t just watch from here.”

She startled the young man. He said, “Our master has broken through to Second Sky of Immortal Realm. You meant the warriors inside the mist have higher realms? Peak of Immortal Realm?”

“Nonsense!” hissed the girl.

When Yvelines, Masha, and Adams had visited the Sea Domain of Nihility and befriended Shi Yan, they were at First Sky of Immortal Realm, just a step away from Second Sky.

After the tragical incident on the Dragon Lizard Star, Forefather Dragon Lizard had taught them something. Then, the Heavenly Eye Clan established a relationship with the Heavenly Sky Clan and became their dependent force. Yvelines, Adams, and Masha had received a lot of benefits. Yvelines had broken through to Second Sky of Immortal Realm shortly after.

Currently, Yvelines was famous in the Heavenly Eye Clan because he had helped the clan become a force under the Mysterious Sky Clan. His reputation in the Heavenly Eye Clan was high; even the Chief of the Heavenly Eye Clan had to respect him a lot.

Those juniors were Yvelines’ apprentices. In their eyes, Yvelines was the strongest expert and they had never met any existence at the Territory Ancestor Realm.

The Heavenly Eye Clan never had a Territory Ancestor. That’s why they were just a third-class race.

Unless their race had a Territory Ancestor, they could finally upgrade their class.

“Little Ya, Little Ye, you have to remember that my realm can be deemed as the top in our clan. However, in the Sea Domain of Nihility, it may not be worth mentioning.”

Yvelines looked at the two young warriors that he had expected a lot from and seriously, “At my realm, I can’t return alive if I fight the others in the Sea Domain of Nihility. That place has so many experts like clouds in the sky that you can’t count. Many forces are stronger than our clan. You shouldn’t relax and become lazy in your cultivation!”

Hearing him, Little Ya and Little Ye didn’t have more opinions and just nodded obediently.

Yvelines looked at them and sighed inwardly. “My competence is limited. Even if I teach you all that I know about power Upanishad, you can only become stronger than me. If you don’t have an excellent teacher, you will never have hope to reach the Territory Ancestor Realm...”

The biggest dream of his life was that the Heavenly Eye Clan would have a Territory Ancestor who could help the clan thrive and live better.

Although his generation couldn’t do that, he hoped that the next generation would achieve the dream that the entire Heavenly Eye Clan had desired. He knew that his two little students Little Ya and Little Ye were extraordinary. If they had a good teacher, they could have a chance to reach the Territory Ancestor Realm in the future.

However, a master at the Territory Ancestor Realm wasn’t someone who would accept a small warrior from the Heavenly Eye Clan as his disciple. When Masha, Adams, and he had tried their best to help Shi Yan, they had a request for him: If Shi Yan reached the Territory Ancestor Realm one day, he would have to choose one member of the Heavenly Eye Clan as his disciple.

Masha, Adams, and Yvelines had spent time and efforts in the Sea Domain of Nihility to search for Shi Yan’s information and whereabouts.

When they heard that Shi Yan disappeared in the Sea of Annihilation, they returned to Musing Rain Territory disappointed. They thought that the agreement they got with Shi Yan that year would never be implemented.

“Long time no see, Yvelines.”

While he was sinking in his regret though, a familiar voice came to his ears. He was surprised at first. When he saw the one standing next to him, he was shocked. He shook and screamed.

“You... Why are you here?”
