Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1494: The Ancient Treant Spirit

Feng Yao stood on the balcony in her palace, but a white-haired man appeared beside her. "Why did you suddenly come here, Hu Tianlang’s wrath soul?"

"Zhang Fei is about to finish absorbing my bloodlust soul." Feng Yao tilted her head to Hu Tianlang. "Once he finishes absorbing it, his task in the Paradise Realm will be complete, but he’s not ready to leave for the Ancient Realm yet."

Feng Yao agreed with him. "I won’t let Zhang Fei go to the Ancient Realm with his current cultivation, and he must break through to the Celestial God Realm first to go there. Otherwise, he will encounter the avatars of the two primordial beasts, and he will die at their hands. If that happens, our efforts will fail miserably, and we will never be able to break free from the shackles of this universe."

"I’ve been dead for a long time, so whether or not he succeeds in breaking the shackles no longer concerns me. On the contrary, your grand plan will fail miserably if he dies, and you will be forever bound to this universe."

"My calculations are never wrong, and Zhang Fei will succeed in helping me free myself from the shackles of this universe." Hu Tianlang stared at Feng Yao without saying anything. "Once I’m free from those shackles, I will leave this universe forever, and he will take my place to protect it and all its inhabitants."

"Are you sure there are other universes besides ours?"

"I’m not sure about that." Feng Yao looked far away. "For now, this matter is just my guess, and I can only prove it after I free myself from those shackles. If other universes really exist, I will go to explore them one by one. If my guess is wrong, I will disappear from this universe for good. However, I don’t have to worry about it, mainly because Zhang Fei will protect it for me."

"You have that much confidence in Zhang Fei, huh?"

"Aren’t we both the same? Otherwise, you wouldn’t sacrifice yourself for something with no clear outcome, right?"

Hu Tianlang did not comment on that. "Zhang Fei will meet the Ancient Treant Spirit, Shu Yuangu, soon."

"Yes." Feng Yao nodded her head slightly. "Shu Yuangu has waited long enough, so it’s time for them to meet, and he will pave the way for him to go to that place."

"Do you think Zhang Fei can get out after he enters that place?"

"Haha." Feng Yao softly laughed and looked at him again. "Didn’t you go in there and come out again in the past? If you can do it, your sole heir should be able to do it too, right? Moreover, Zhang Fei is much better than you because he’s a lust demon and a Calamity Demon Dragon; he shouldn’t have any trouble getting in and out of that place, but—"

"But that woman won’t stay quiet, and she might try to lock Zhang Fei up in her place."

Feng Yao nodded slightly. "That woman hates you so much because she couldn’t stop you from going in and out of her place in the past, and she might vent her hatred for you onto Zhang Fei."

"Haha." Hu Tianlang laughed while rubbing his white hair. "That woman tried to keep me in that place in the past, but no man in his right mind would be willing to accompany such an ugly woman. Therefore, I ran away from there, and she couldn’t chase me because she couldn’t leave that place. By the way, those two heavenly foxes will soon break through to the Celestial Emperor Realm, so I’ll return to the Illusion Spirit Fox Domain to monitor them. Once those two and Zhang Fei reach the Celestial God Realm, I’ll let the three of them meet for their final battle."

"Alright." After Hu Tianlang left, two twin women appeared behind Feng Yao. "Huo Mingyi and Huo Mengyi, I want you two to go to the Twin Flames Main Domain, and you guys must protect the Moonlit Passion Temple while Zhang Fei is in seclusion, but there is no need for you to appear before him."

"Yes, Empress."

After the two women disappeared, Huo Ling came out of Feng Yao’s body and sat on her shoulder. "Are you really going to let Zhang Fei enter the Lotus Limbo World in the future, Master? What if that woman locks him in there and he can’t get out again?"

"You’re underestimating Zhang Fei’s abilities when it comes to women, you know?" Huo Ling snorted softly in response to Feng Yao’s comment. "That woman is indeed strong, and Hu Tianlang fears her. She is destined to be one of the women who helps him in the future, so I’m sure she won’t be able to lock him up there, and he can do something to get out of that place. Perhaps, spending a lot of time in that place will be useful for him, and he will become stronger when he leaves. Furthermore, the two primordial beasts cannot enter that place, so he will be safe as long as he stays there."

Huo Ling still couldn’t understand Feng Yao’s confidence in Zhang Fei. "Xu Ling’er is the reincarnation of Tian Huangjin, and she is already by his side. Since Luo Yunxiao inherited Hu Tianlang’s special physique, it is clear that she is the human race’s representative. Tianshi Shengjie and Jia Yuyan are already by his side, and the woman in the Lotus Limbo World will appear soon, but it won’t be easy for him to conquer her. The woman from the demihuman race is the only one missing, but we don’t know her location."

"Yes." Feng Yao nodded at her. "I don’t know her current identity or location, but she should show up soon."

"Master, what do you think about other special physique possessors?"

Feng Yao thought for a moment before shaking her head. "For now, I don’t know the whereabouts of the possessors of the Immortal Sacred Physique, the Yin-Yang Devouring Physique, the Universe Tree Physique, the Heavenly Calamity Physique, and the Void Emperor Physique. They should have heard of Zhang Fei’s name, and we just need to wait for them to appear."

After that, Feng Yao walked away from the balcony to take care of other matters, and Huo Ling entered her body again.

Zhang Fei [5] and Jia Yuyan had already arrived at the Floral Mirage Domain, and the female fairy immediately led her husband to the deepest area of ​​the domain. However, they did not go there alone; four other people accompanied them.

Jia Shengyun and Jia Lingzhu accompanied them as they were elders of the Fairy Race, and Zhang Fei [5] also summoned Jia Xianzu and Beiming Youhuang from his soul world.

Soon, they arrived at the deepest part of the Floral Mirage Domain, where a spirit tree stood in the center of the area, with many small creatures flying around it.

The Ancient Treant Spirit was almost similar to the Blood Tree, but it didn’t have the bloody aura like the one in the Blood Forest. "Yuyan, you finally brought the heir of the ten-tailed fox to me."

"Grandpa Shu Yuangu, I wanted to bring my husband to see you from the start, but you told me that I had to wait for your call. After you summoned me, I immediately brought him here so you can talk to him." Jia Yuyan pushed Zhang Fei [5] forward. "His name is Zhang Fei, Grandpa."

Zhang Fei [5] cupped his hand to Shu Yuangu. "Greetings, Senior. If I may ask, why did you ask Yuyan to bring me here?"

"I’ll show you a place, but you can’t go in there now, and you have to evolve into a ten-tailed fox first to be able to enter it." Zhang Fei [5] and the others looked confused, but a hole appeared beneath the Ancient Treant Spirit. However, it only lasted a moment, and Shu Yuangu closed it again. "Can you guess where it is?"

"The Lotus Limbo World."

"Yes." Su Yuangu nodded slightly. "I’ve heard from the Giant Yin-Yang Tree about you, and it asked me to show you the entrance portal to the Lotus Limbo World. Unfortunately, you’re still far from evolving into a ten-tailed fox, so you’ll have to wait a while longer to enter that place. If you force your way in with your current strength, that woman will capture you and imprison you there, and you’ll never be able to get out for the rest of your life."

Naturally, Zhang Fei [5] was aware of his own strength, and Feng Yao had already explained to him a lot about the Lotus Limbo World and the woman who lived within. Moreover, he didn’t know the exact situation inside that place, so he wouldn’t be so crazy as to enter that place with his current strength. "Senior, you already know that my strength isn’t enough to enter that place, so what’s your purpose in showing me the portal now?"

"I don’t know the real reason, but the Giant Yin-Yang Lotus asked me to show you the portal to enter." Zhang Fei [5] raised an eyebrow. "If you want a clear answer, you should go to the Ashen Lotus Monastery, and you can ask the two spirits directly."

"What kind of place is the Lotus Limbo World, Zhang Fei?" Beiming Youhuang asked him.

Jia Shengyun, Jia Lingzhu, and Jia Xianzu were also curious about the Lotus Limbo World, especially since they had never heard of such a place before.
