Chapter 1715 - 1714: Earth, I’m Back

Ye Wenjun was such a clever girl. She immediately guessed that Fang Yu must have used some method to restore the energy of the Divine Artifact. So she wasn’t sure if Fang Yu could continue fighting.

At the moment they landed, Ye Wenjun replaced Fang Yu. She helped deal with any surrounding wild beasts or any possible cultivators.

Luckily, there was nothing, not even a single wild beast appeared.

Ye Wenjun took this moment to look over.

"Are you okay?"

"Nothing serious. It’s just that a lot of energy disappeared. Give me some time, and I’ll be able to recover."

"Did you inject all the energy into the Free Heaven Angel Level Pocket World Shuttle?"

"I could only use this method to forcefully restore energy. Otherwise, there would have to be a battle between us and the Supreme God. But doing so would only result in a lose-lose situation. Fighting wouldn’t mean much and wouldn’t benefit Earth. That Song Master is a monster who has lived too long. Fighting him might not necessarily give us an advantage. Although I have many trump cards, the Supreme God is truly terrifying."

"You made this choice without giving me a heads-up."

"The situation was very urgent at the time, there was no time to make a choice. I did this to return to Earth as soon as possible. We have a year, which is enough time for us to make preparations: improve cultivation and find ways to counteract. If we can break through, that would be ideal. The Divine Race’s strength and cultivation just broke through, so improving to a higher level is nearly impossible. By then, humanity’s chances of winning will be much greater."

"You have a point."

Ye Wenjun nodded.

If it were her, she would have made the same choice in that scenario. After all, fighting the Supreme God indeed didn’t offer great odds.

"But your personality isn’t one to back down. Don’t you feel stifled returning to Earth like this?"

"I don’t feel stifled, because I considered the need to protect Earth."

"Protecting Earth?"

"War would indeed destroy their planet, but it would also release enormous energy, affecting Earth. Do you know why? Because the Divine Race’s backup Heavenly Ladder has already been built. The rule is to destroy eight Order Planets. As soon as war breaks out, the rules will trigger, and the Divine Race will descend upon Earth."

Ye Wenjun found it rather strange.

"But the Pavilion Master repeatedly claims to protect the Divine Race?"

"You believe him? His breakthrough, I suspect, came at the cost of those 25 high-level members. Otherwise, why didn’t the other high-level members appear when he did? Also, do you know how terrifying a war at such a high level is? Not just the Main Planet, but the other seven Order Planets would be shattered. Not to mention anyone surviving. He doesn’t care about those so-called Divine Race. But now it’s different, he needs a place to live. If he were to drift in the universe searching for a target, it would also take time."

"Indeed."

"The Pavilion Master is definitely not someone to think of conventionally."

"This person is truly terrifying. Imagine reaching such an age and still scheming to this extent. To the point of being willing to eradicate his own race — it’s simply unimaginable."

"Okay, now’s not the time to talk about this. I need to rest for a while. We’ll leave together later."

Ye Wenjun obediently nodded and came to his side.

Fang Yu began to sit cross-legged and meditate.

The Divine Dragon Technique he practiced enabled very quick cultivation and even faster recovery.

Soon, more than half of his energy had been restored.

He didn’t plan to recover the rest because, with the help of the Divine Dragon Technique, he could fully recover in no time.

After completing his recovery, Fang Yu stood up.

"Honestly, if I were to go one-on-one with him, I don’t know who would win or lose between us. In terms of physical realm, I might not match him. But my Divine Sense is not weak."

"Now you’re boasting."

"I’m not boasting; I’m telling the truth. The reason I’m taking you away is also to protect you."

Ye Wenjun gave him a sidelong glance.

Even at a time like this, he could joke. Hearing Fang Yu’s words, she was very surprised and shocked. She didn’t expect the Divine Race to arrange things this way, setting the rules on eight planets.

With this, if the eight planets were to break, the Divine Race could descend upon Earth in a short time.

"According to what you’re saying, what if he deliberately broke the eight planets?"

"Impossible. Because when these rules were set, those from the Divine Race had their own agendas. It was to prevent the Pavilion Master from making such a move. The rules were adjusted to only trigger during inter-civilization wars."

"I see."

"Exactly. If not for the 25 high-ranking members, the Pavilion Master could have become very strong."

The two nodded in agreement.

They flew towards the east.

They didn’t intend to use spatial movement.

They just flew directly like this.

Flying over mountains, over the earth, over landscapes they had never seen before.

Everything on Earth became incredibly magnificent.

Forests, primal jungles, and rivers.

All grew much grander than before.

They passed through some western cities.

The cities were taller than before, with neon lights, lighthouses, and more.

Amazing and magnificent.

Modern technology was far more advanced than before, with many cultivators flying in the sky.

But Fang Yu and You Wenjun’s cultivation was especially high.

Those cultivators had no way to detect the two flying overhead.

Fang Yu was able to detect them, though.

It took about a minute.

Ye Wenjun and Fang Yu landed in Jiangzhou.

The place they once stayed.

Then they took a deep breath.

"Ahead is Jiangzhou."

"Yes. Many of the streets are modeled after the past; they seem unchanged. Truly nostalgic."

"Do you want to go home first?"

"Home?"

Ye Wenjun suddenly remembered her family. She hadn’t returned for so many years.

She missed them a lot.

Wandering outside for so many years. She didn’t know what her family had become.

"Aren’t you going back?"

Ye Wenjun knew Fang Yu must miss home too, missing his mother.

Fang Yu nodded.

"I need to go to Wanxian University. Handle some things. Plus, our time is very tight. Within the next year, someone must break through. But right now, it seems like I’m the only one who could break through. So, meeting parents is up to you. I need to seek an opportunity to break through."

"..."

Even now, he doesn’t forget to boast a little.

What do you mean by only you can break through?

Ye Wenjun considered her talent not bad either.

"Okay." But Ye Wenjun still agreed with Fang Yu.

It’s what a good wife should do. Follow your husband wherever he goes.

"Go then."
