Chapter 451: Chapter 208: Hellish Lifeforms

“Dean, let’s go inside first and talk,” Dongfang Yao said, not pressing for more details.

Dean Feng nodded and followed Dongfang Yao into the manor’s villa.

Upon entering the villa’s main hall, he sat on the sofa. Dean Feng gazed out the window at the mountain manor in the distance.

“Have some tea, Dean.” Dongfang Yao poured a cup of hot tea and placed it on the coffee table before him.

Dean Feng picked up the cup, blew on the tea, and took a sip. His eyes immediately lit up.

“This tea… it can enhance one’s spiritual cultivation?”

Dongfang Yao nodded. “Yes, Brother Yu gave it to me.”

Hearing this, Dean Feng laughed. “No wonder.”

Anything from Chen Yu was bound to be a treasure.

“Xiaoyao, have you seen Chen Yu these past few days?” the Dean asked while sipping his tea.

Dongfang Yao shook her head. “No. Brother Yu has been in seclusion, so I haven’t dared to disturb him.”

“Still in seclusion?” Dean Feng’s expression changed slightly, a troubled look on his face.

Dongfang Yao nodded. “Yes, he’s been in seclusion the whole time. Brother Yu is probably trying to comprehend a Law, which might take a while.”

“In that case, can you contact Chen Yu?” Dean Feng mused for a moment before looking at Dongfang Yao and asking.

Dongfang Yao looked at Dean Feng but didn’t answer right away. Instead, she asked, “Dean, is there a reason you’re looking for Brother Yu?”

Dean Feng fell silent. He picked up his cup, took a sip of tea, and finally said, “Yes, you’re right. There is something. A matter concerning the very survival of the Ancestor Star.”

Dongfang Yao: “???”

‘The survival of the Ancestor Star?’

Dongfang Yao stared at Dean Feng in astonishment as soon as the words left his mouth.

‘What danger could the Ancestor Star be in?’

‘Don’t tell me an Alien Race is sending a Venerable with a grand army to attack us?’

‘The Godhood Ascension Tournament was only just over half a year ago. Now, our fame shakes the Celestial River. Which Alien Race would dare attack the Ancestor Star?’

‘Have they lost their minds?’

‘Chen Yu used an Emperor’s Weapon to slay a god. That fearsome reputation awed the entire Celestial River; even the Celestial Race couldn’t do anything to him.’

‘Attack the Ancestor Star? Is that even possible?’

Dongfang Yao was shocked, but hearing this from Dean Feng meant it was no exaggeration.

She just couldn’t understand the reason behind it.

“Dean, what exactly happened?” Calming herself, Dongfang Yao looked at Dean Feng and asked.

With a solemn expression, Dean Feng looked at her and said, “It’s like this. A Space-Time Anomaly has appeared deep in the Arctic. This Anomaly contains immense danger and terrifying monsters that can easily kill Ninth-level beings.”

“And there are a lot of them. We’ve already sent scouts, but several Ninth-level Martial Artists have died inside. Most of these monsters are at the Ninth-level, and their sheer numbers could trigger an extinction-level crisis. There might even be True God Level monsters among them.”

“Monsters? Are they mutant beasts?” Dongfang Yao asked.

Dean Feng shook his head. “These monsters aren’t the common mutant beasts. They’re creatures that reek of death. According to the Divine Hall’s biological records, they might be life forms from Hell.”

“Right now, the Space-Time Secret Realm has been sealed, but the seal won’t hold for long. Even with our combined efforts, it will shatter sooner or later. When that happens, if these hell-monsters break out of the Anomaly Realm, the entire Ancestor Star will face a cataclysm.”

“Life forms from Hell… an aura of death.”

Hearing Dean Feng’s explanation, Dongfang Yao’s expression also grew serious.

Looking at the Dean, Dongfang Yao asked, “Dean, why don’t you ask the Divine Hall for help? They should be able to send a True God, right?”

Dean Feng sighed. “We’ve already notified the Divine Hall. However, most of the True God Venerables have gone to the Outer Domain battlefield. On top of that, something has come up on the Stellar Battlefield, making it difficult to spare a single True God Venerable. That’s why I came to ask if you could contact Chen Yu. If he takes action, this shouldn’t be too big of a problem.”

Hearing this, Dongfang Yao fell silent for a moment.

Dean Feng didn’t disturb her, quietly sipping his tea as he waited for her answer.

After a long pause, Dongfang Yao stood up. She gazed at the mountain manor in the distance, then turned back to the Dean. “Dean, I can only try. I’ll contact Brother Yu’s butler, but I can’t guarantee anything.”

“Chen Yu’s butler?” Dean Feng was taken aback.

‘Chen Yu has a butler?’

‘How come I never knew?’

“This… Who is Chen Yu’s butler?” Dean Feng asked Dongfang Yao, looking completely stunned.

Dongfang Yao replied, “It’s Brother Yu’s assistant, a super-intelligent robot. Brother Yu said that if there’s a special situation, we can notify his robot butler.”

“A super-intelligent robot…”

Dean Feng was stunned for a second, but he didn’t dwell on it. He nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll go with you to meet this butler.”

Dongfang Yao nodded. “Okay, let’s go.”

With that, Dongfang Yao headed outside, and Dean Feng followed close behind.

…

Soon, the two of them arrived at the gate of the mountain manor.

Dongfang Yao tapped her watch, sending out a communication signal, and then waited quietly.

Seeing this, Dean Feng said nothing and also waited patiently.

Inside the villa of the mountain manor.

Sophie, who had been enjoying a solar recharge, suddenly opened her eyes.

‘Huh, a communication signal from Lady Dongfang. It seems something is up.’ Sophie got up, glanced at the light from the Divine Domain floating in mid-air, and then walked out of the room.

Soon, Sophie arrived at the manor’s entrance.

The manor gate opened automatically.

“Lady Dongfang,” Sophie said with a smile.

Chen Yu had told her that if Dongfang Yao came looking for him, she could be brought in directly.

This Lady Dongfang was a good friend of Master Chen Yu.

‘That kid… he really knows how to live. Such a beautiful robot butler.’

Looking at Sophie, Dean Feng was inwardly stunned.

‘A super-intelligent robot butler, and one made to look so beautiful… he was feeling a little jealous.’

‘That rascal, he really knows how to enjoy himself.’

‘But then again, Chen Yu is a Cosmic Venerable now. He’s earned the right to enjoy himself a little.’

‘What’s one butler? He wouldn’t have any complaints even if there were a hundred of them.’

Looking at Sophie, Dongfang Yao stepped forward with a beaming smile. “Sophie, is Brother Yu here?”

Sophie nodded. “Master Chen Yu is in seclusion.”

Hearing this, Dongfang Yao nodded and then turned to Dean Feng beside her. “Let me introduce you. This is Brother Yu’s former dean and teacher. You can just call him Lord Feng.”

Sophie nodded and looked respectfully at Dean Feng. “Greetings, Lord Feng.”

“Yes, hello,” Dean Feng replied with a chuckle and a nod.

‘Isn’t this super-intelligent robot a little *too* intelligent?’

‘Is this really a robot?’

‘If he couldn’t feel the complete absence of any Life Qi Blood fluctuations from Sophie, Dean Feng would have suspected she was a human in disguise.’

“Sophie, we have something very important to discuss with Brother Yu. Can you notify him?” Dongfang Yao asked, getting straight to the point.

Sophie nodded. “Yes, Sophie can contact Master Chen Yu.”

“Please, come inside first, you two human masters.”

Hearing this, Dean Feng breathed a small sigh of relief and immediately stepped into the mountain manor with Dongfang Yao.
