Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1567: Training Preparation II

"Why are you two back here?" Mo Zainan asked her two daughters.

Mo Anqi hugged her mother. "Mother, we haven’t been back here in over five years, especially after the changes to this Paradise Realm, so we decided to come home and accompany you for a while."

"Has our father returned, Mother?" Mo Yousha asked her.

"Your father arrived at the exit portal to this Paradise Realm four and a half years ago, but the exit was sealed, so he and his five subordinates couldn’t get out of there." Mo Anqi was surprised by that but not Mo Yousha. "My subordinates discovered the location of the exit portal four years ago, and they are there now, but none of them have succeeded in destroying the seal."

"How can the exit be sealed? Can’t my father destroy it with his high cultivation?"

"I don’t understand the reason behind the portal being sealed, but it might be related to the significant changes in this Paradise Realm. If your father could break the seal, he would be back with us now." Mo Zainan hugged them. "Let’s stop talking about your father, okay? I want to hear about your activities at the Moonlit Passion Temple for the past six years, and I want to know your progress after training there for so many years. Did you two make many friends there? Did they treat you both well?"

"Hehe," Mo Anqi giggled. "Mother, the rules at the Moonlit Passion Temple are very strict, especially regarding fighting between disciples. At first, the disciples there were a little cold toward us because of our father, but they eventually accepted our presence, and we made many friends from various races there. Unfortunately, Elder Luolan had been in seclusion with her husband for the past few years, so I learned about formation arrays from Elder Hanxue and the others. By the way, Elder Zhang offered us to go with them to the Glazed Heaven Domain, but we missed you, so we chose to return to our domain."

Mo Zainan was a little sad when her daughter mentioned Zhang Fei, mainly because he hadn’t come to see her since the last time. She also didn’t try to contact him because he was focused on his cultivation, so she would rather not disturb him. "Has his cultivation increased?"

"Elder Zhang’s cultivation is already at the 1-Sun Celestial Emperor Realm, Mother."

Mo Zainan was a little surprised by Mo Yousha’s answer, as Zhang Fei’s speed in breaking through was truly fast and absurd, but she didn’t show it on her expression.

"Have the other demon races discovered our domain, Mother?"

Mo Zainan nodded at them. "The Asura Demon Race, the Nine Nether Demon Race, and the Eternal Night Main Domain all came here a year or two ago. I’m not worried about them because Shang Zhanluo is still in seclusion, and the other two demon races are Zhang Fei’s allies. Fortunately, the Heavenly Fiend Demon Race, the Torture Demon Race, and the Ten Thousand Eyes Demon Race have not managed to locate our domain. If they find out our location and your father’s situation, they will immediately attack us, and I won’t be able to fight them because the three demon gods of the three races are much stronger than me."

Mo Anqi and Mo Yousha knew about the ambitions of Demon God Shang Zhanluo, Demon God Sha Mo, Demon God Ku Shenzu, and Demon God Qian Yan to become the ruler of all the demon races. They were relieved that three of the four demon gods hadn’t yet discovered their location; otherwise, they would have attacked their race.

Afterward, Mo Zainan took her two daughters to her room, where they talked extensively, especially about their experiences in the Moonlit Passion Sect over the past few years.

Shang Luohu stood in front of Shang Zhanluo’s seclusion room, but her expression looked worried because her husband had been there for almost six years, and he still showed no signs of coming out.

"Your soul power has become stronger, Empress."

Shang Luohu nodded to Shang Zhui. "Zhang Fei has been taking me to that domain to see my daughter every few months for the past few years, and the giant Yin-Yang Lotus has been continuously helping us improve our soul power."

"I see." Shang Zhui nodded in understanding. "Has Princess Xueli improved significantly?"

"Her cultivation has increased by one stage, but her fighting abilities have increased several times." Shang Luohu looked at him. "I don’t know how my daughter has been training with Zhang Fei all this time, but I can say that none of us can match her speed now, and the only one who can match her speed is your son."

"Isn’t that great, Empress? This way, Princess Xueli will be even more prepared to become the successor of our Asura Demon Race, and she might be able to bring us to a better situation."

Shang Luohu agreed with Shang Zhui, but there were several things that still bothered her, especially about her husband’s condition. "Zhui, I want you to keep an eye on this place and inform me if there are any changes in my husband."

"Yes, Empress." After Shang Luohu left, Shang Zhui looked at the sealed door before him. "What exactly happened to you, Emperor?"

"Why don’t you go with Zhang Fei to that domain?"

"No," Tian Huangjin answered her father with a shake of her head. "Although the situation in our domain is still safe and under control, I’m still worried about your safety. Moreover, I’ve been away for several years in seclusion, so I want to rest in our domain and accompany you for now. By the way, have Tian Qiye and the others shown any signs of movement yet?"

"Since the changes that occurred in this Paradise Realm, all the grand elders entered seclusion and have not come out until today. As for Tian Qiye, I can’t guess what she’s thinking, but she seems to be planning something in her mind."

Tian Huangjin raised an eyebrow slightly. "I’ve heard from Zhang Fei that Tian Qiye intends to attack Ye Mingran and the Eternal Night Demon Race."

"I see." Tian Yizu understood the reason behind Tian Qiye’s desire to attack the Eternal Night Demon Race. "She has an old grudge against that demon race, which dates back to before she became a grand elder. That’s why I’m not surprised that she wants to attack them, but fortunately, her subordinates haven’t managed to find the location of the Eternal Night Domain, so she won’t be able to attack them anytime soon."

"Have they discovered the locations of other domains?"

"Most of them are small human domains." Tian Yizu told her daughter about all the domains that Tian Qiye’s subordinates had managed to discover. "Since you’ve returned here, I want to see your progress after cultivating and training with Zhang Fei, so we’ll go to the training ground now."

"Haha," Tian Huangjin laughed. "Don’t regret losing to me, Father."

"Hahaha!"

In her room, Tian Yaoqin felt relieved that Tian Qiye couldn’t tell the difference between her true self and her artificial doll. Since she had been away for several years to train with Zhang Fei, she decided to stay in her domain for now.

"Grand Elder Yaoqin, our leader orders you to go see her now."

"What does she want from me?" Tian Yaoqin raised an eyebrow for a moment. "I’ll go see her now."

Tian Yaoqin immediately deactivated the artificial doll, stored it in her storage ring, and went to meet Tian Qiye.

Before long, Tian Yaoqin arrived in front of Tian Qiye. "Why did you call me, Leader?"

Tian Qiye didn’t answer Tian Yaoqin’s question directly; instead, she observed her closely because she still harbored many suspicions about her, but she couldn’t find anything unusual. "What about your cultivation? Have you approached the Celestial God Realm?"

’Phew.’ Tian Yaoqin inwardly sighed in relief. "My cultivation has made great progress in the past few years, but I’m still far from the Celestial God Realm, and it will probably take me several decades to reach it."

"Go back now and continue your cultivation."

"Yes."

Tian Qiye watched Tian Yaoqin leave with narrowed eyes. "Was my suspicion about her wrong? However, I can sense that her cultivation is progressing much faster than that of Tian Liefeng and the others, and she will be the first among them to break through to the Celestial God Realm. Unfortunately, my subordinates have not yet managed to find the location of the Eternal Night Demon Domain, so I will still have to be patient in destroying them."

In the Dragon-Soaring Divine Domain, Tianshi Shengjie and several beasts stood in front of Long Wuzhao and the others, listening to the messages from the dragon emperor regarding their planned departure to the Glazed Heaven Domain. "You guys can go to the Moonlit Passion Temple now, but you must be careful while in the domain, and you must not underestimate the people from the War God Pavilion. They are humans, but they are similar to the Asura Demon Race, and they possess superior physical strength and fighting abilities that surpass other humans. Moreover, they can enhance their strength by using their secret techniques, which will increase their power severalfold."

"Yes, Emperor." Tianshi Shengjie immediately led them to the portal connecting the Dragon-Soaring Divine Domain with the Twin Flames Domain to go to the Moonlit Passion Temple.

"Zhang Fei has become stronger, Brother Wuzhao."

Long Wuzhao nodded to Tianshi Bailong. "Zhang Fei previously told me that he encountered something unexpected in the Ancient Desolation Domain, and he also told me that the situation in the Ancient Realm is dire."
